@fsunoles157

I want to learn besides just clicking and not knowing what it does. The part i'm not sure is copying file.
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
One you learn teach me how to get adb to even work! Lol
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
+1

I honestly wish they would have never released the one click methods. You need to learn as you are going.
[Xoom Android Development] cat2115:
lol. sorry but i guess i wrote too long. my question was copying which file to/from location. I know you're smarter but i just been in here for a week and been reading and google and still confuse on copying which files. It's like u telling some1 direction but all u did was giving street name but did not tell him/her to turn left/right on that street.
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
I see only a few things wrong with your directions post:

5. Unzip xoomwifiroot and copy/past these file (.DS_Store, boot.img, su, Superuser.apk) to C:\androidSDK\android-sdk-r10\android-sdk-windows\tools

<<don't work about .DS_Store its junk.

As a newer guy, you may not know but this is actually 2 commands:

<adb shell ln -s /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su

adb shell chmod 4755 /system/bin/su

adb push Superuser.apk /system/app>

should be

adb shell

ln -s /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su

chmod 4755 /system/bin/su

adb push Superuser.apk /system/app

Adb shell brings you to a differnet prompt. Most of the newer folks will paste adb shell ln -s /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su and it will error.
[Xoom Android Development] cat2115:
Thank you. If you didn't mention I would have copy the whole string w/out knowing it's a 2 line commands.

Just want to recap. These are the files i should be copying from xoomwifiroot to C:\androidSDK\android-sdk-r10\android-sdk-windows\tools

-fastboot.exe

-boot.img

-su

-Superuser.apk

-bcmVold.fdtab

-bcm4329.ko

-cifs.ko

-scsi_wait_scan.ko

-tun.ko

and sorry to all if i ask dumb questions. Yes One-click is a super great tool but sooner or later i will need to enter code when updating to a newer version.
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
Yes looks good. I don't mind helping people willing to learn. And the fact you are here, and NOT using the one-click means a lot. Guess what? I had to learn it all also :).

Did you make the sdcard2 folder and reboot after inserting your microSD card?
[Xoom Android Development] kie777:
i have done all step from forst page and succeeded. The only question is why does my kernel still in tiamat 1.3.0 when the first post stated that it's already using tiamat 1.3.1?

also how do i change the kernel manually to 1.3.1?
[Xoom Android Development] gewa:
Yes I have the folder it's there, but I can not see my sd card anywhere.
[Xoom Android Development] dirtymindedx:

[Xoom Android Development] cat2115:
i follow the guide in post #1 and creating sdcard2 and yes i do saw the folder sdcard2 inside my wifi xoom. however when i insert 8gb micro sd, i did not see the 8gb micro sd card anywhere. also when i check the "about" it said "2.6.36.3Tiamat_xoom-v1.3.0-gc02ada7".. I thought this is v1.3.1.
[Xoom Android Development] lmmaromantic:
Pls I need help

[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
It is 1.3.1 it doesn't show it. Why don't you. Download rom manager fro. The market and flash clockwork recovery and then download tiamat 1.3.2 and flash that from your xoom through recovey
[Xoom Android Development] lmmaromantic:

Any way to relock and unroot yet?
[Xoom Android Development] cat2115:
This is what I did to unroot my wifi xoom

download boot and system to unroot. afterward i check the "about tablet" it said Kernel Version 2.6.36.3-g2a4197e android-build@apa28#1. but i think it's still unlock.
[Xoom Android Development] joshuarad2:
I followed the directions on the first page with a little reading into the forum to discover about putting the full path to the file names and everything worked like a champ. I was really nervous about doing this to my Xoom but now that it is done I can say that the directions made it really really easy. :D
[Xoom Android Development] mh333:
Okay! I got through every step except the cifs.ko push. I went on and pushed everything else. It say's no space left on device when I tried to push the cifs.ko. What to do?????
[Xoom Android Development] aleksthomar:
seriously, have tried it on two different XOOM wifi in canada already and all i get as sdcard in recovery mode is like 3Mb, not enough to put the zip for 1.4.0 or 1.3.2. When i first mount it, it pops up for me to format before using it (win 7 x64) and all the capacity available is 3mb (2.9*) formatted. What i need to do instead is fastboot flash boot out of Tiamat 1.4.0 and then remove the file so that the zip is smaller and then flash that (all minus boot img). Is there something going wrong with my xooms? or is the sdcard really that small. Any way to change the partition table to make it larger. it will be impossible to flash custom roms like this in the future.
[Xoom Android Development] scribbl:
The trick is to buy a small (capacity wise) micro SD card and use it to store the file on.

[Xoom Android Development] lrs421:
Awesome tutorial, cant wait to give this a shot. Is this process the same if you have the new 3.1 update?
[Xoom Android Development] publicanimal:
Actually I think this method might send you into a bootloop since it has you flash a kernel that isn't compatible with 3.1. I'm going to work on a 3.1 Root Guide for the WiFi Xoom today.

i am stuck at rebooting screen wat to do next...pls help....really worried....i am at the clockwork mod recovery........
[Xoom Android Development] shadowjumper:
***Please Read/Post at Beginning of Thread***

Thanks everyone for developing this process. For those with Android 3.1, this won't work by itself though. Please read this...

I tried rooting my xoom, followed all the directions but kept getting stuck at the Motorola logo. Turns out I had Android 3.1. I'm sure there's a more efficient and headache-free way to root 3.1, but here's what I did, and it worked...

1) Follow all directions on the first page of this thread.

2) Download the recovery-solarnz-R4b-060611-1300-cwm.img (or whatever version is most current right now)

3) Follow the directions on this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1078019

4) That should do it.

A couple of notes:

You may not need to make the sdcard2 directory, when done loading the image the contents of the removable sd card show up under the directory "external"

I'm not sure what other files (.ko, .fstab etc) are not necessary, I pushed them all and my Xoom is working fine.
[Nexus S Accessories] lifesaver:
as the slcd nexus s is a little thicker then the samoled version I would like to know if there are covers/skins who will fit the 9023(slcd) as well as the 9020. would be a bummer if I order some and notice it isn't the correct size. thanks!
[Nexus S Accessories] peeturr:
I believe all cases should fit the 9023 fine because the width difference, although there is one, is extremely minimal. My suggestion is to look through all the case threads we have here. I would avoid full body screen protectors and hard cases, for now. One you might want to try is RearthUSA's ringke case which looks nice and is relatively flexible silicon. TPU cases may be a bit snug and end up scratching your phone instead. Check out the reviews.
[Nexus S Accessories] lifesaver:
thanks for the info..the rearth ringke case looks kinda nice!
[Nexus S Accessories] DKYang:
As peeturr said, it should be fine. When I got the Vibrant, I bought a Galaxy S case and it fit great. There was a minimal different in size (2 of the 3 were different; length, width, height, forgot which of the two was different).

At the time, I bought a jelly/tpu case and a case like the Incipio feather that was originally for the first Galaxy S. Had no problems putting it on and off the Vibrant.

[About XDA developers] @prime:
I am noticing a lot of confusion on the Xoom forums about whether people are using the 3G or WiFi Xoom. I know it was said that you should place 3G or WiFi tags in threads to distinguish, but for the sake of redundancy(maybe my idea creates more?) might it be a good idea to create separate forums? The unwary/ignorant/impatient seem to be soft bricking devices because of the difference between the two. This could also theoretically become a real pain in the development forums. Just an idea.

Hello guys i'm building a rom based on Froyo 2.2.2 and want to integrate DSPManager. I extracted DSPManager.apk from CM6,put it in my rom but it doesn't work.

New Phone coming to Boost Mobile MNVO of Sprint USA. It features 3.5 inch display or 3.2 inch. It is running Froyo. SD Card slot up to 32gb, no information so far on card that comes with device. 3.2mp camera (no idea if it has flash)

No actual information on processor but I'm going to assume it's an arm 11.

The actual phone is supposed to be announced at a Boost Mobile / Samsung event on April 5th.

I'm betting my money on $150 usd for the device.
[Android General] vbetts:
If anything, it'll either be the qualcomm ms11 turbo, or the Samsung SC soc they've been using a lot more. I'd rather see the qualcomm one, seeing that their older SoC's suck.

Since I have less than 8 posts here, I am not able to provide the Engadget link for this phone, which says: 3.2-inch touchscreen, a 2 megapixel camera, $180.

Its android baby!
[Android General] VibrantStroti:
I have my eye on this one knowing now that T-Mobile is about to become AT&T-mobile. I considered Boost for the $50/month unlimited plan which is a sweet deal, but at the time I was making my decision they didn't have any phones I was interested in owning. I'll definitely take a look at this once my contract is up, or able to be shredded due to AT&T related changes.
[Android General] RacerX780:
I've read that the Boost phones aren't as feature packed as some of the others... but with this being my first smart phone, will it matter much??

I currently have a phone that I just use for talk and txt on att's pre-paid service... so if I can get this and add internet and email for $10 less per month, that's what I wanna do. Coverage doesn't look too bad in my area... which hopefully it's not.

I'm mainly looking for something that I'd be able to tether with my Xoom and get 'net access to receive work emails and possibly transfer files via dropbox from time time when I'm on the road and not connected via wifi.

[Android General] xiangruli2011:
Wow, that's a lot of bezel.
[Android General] ibdilbert:
Picked one of these up this morning. To answer some questions:

- It only comes with a 2 gig SD card

- No Flash, samsung said its not supported due to hardware restrictions. I did try to install it, but it causes browsers to close.

- 179.99, I was told by the sprint store only the "boostmobile" branded stores have them right now, I had to hunt one down and they only had one on the shelf. Also they went on sale online this morning, and now the web page is reporting "sold out online".

- I have yet to root it, but haven't tried really hard yet either. SuperOneClick has failed for me.

That being said, it actually seems pretty snappy. It also has some weight to it, maybe because the battery is 1500mah. Quadrant results show 554, just a bit higher than the Nexus One, but below the Samsung Galaxy S.

CPU is an ARMv6, rev 5, 800mhz

Display is 320x480, but still looks really good. The biggest complaint I've been reading about is the screen size, but I'll be honest, it doesn't seem that small to me. Maybe thats because I've been using an Android loaded Vogue, and they are smaller phones.

Its also only sports a 2mp camera, but I took some pics today and they turned out better than expected.

My personal opinion is the phone is well worth 179.99.
[Android General] dbwelch:
I would like to hear more about the Prevail, and look forward to learning more as more of these get out into the field. I'm considering one of these for my first venture into the Android world. Seems like a decent deal with Boost plans, and the phone is affordable. I'm a little concerned that it may not get the kind of attention that other phones get in terms of rooting, custom ROM's, etc. I know this is something we can always customize to taste, but with the limited horsepower, I for one really like the fact that the original ROM is basically vanilla Android.

I hope many others will share their initial impressions and then their progress with mods.
[Android General] ibdilbert:
@dbwelch

That was my concern as well, that it might not get a ton of attention as currently the prevail is only for boost mobile.

My previous phone was a HTC Touch Vogue on boost, and I noticed some of the rom developers were Boost Customers, so there is hope. At the very least it would be nice to see someone root the thing.
[Android General] Nubzori:
Awesome, just for me!
[Android General] Dr.Ama:
I have a prevail and i must say...its better than advertised.

The screen is small but is more than functional. The small

keyboard is not an issue as you have swype, android and a

few that can be dowloaded from the market for free. I like

the fact that it comes with froyo stripped of all that

manufacturer bs...no sense or touch wiz to clutter it up.

It's well worth the $179 price tag.
[Android General] juanshop:
i hope this phone picks up.

i got it yesterday for my girlfriend after hunting it for like 3 hours.

i wasnt expecting much, i mean 215 after everything shouldn't give you much, but i was wrong.

the screen is really nice and responsive, the camera is eh, but come on, is snappy, and even better with adw launcher in it, boost 3g network down here is surprisingly good, browser experience is just nice, multitouch support and all the good stuff, yeah it lacks of flash, but im sure it can be enabled, the processor is not that bad, and with customs kernels and stuff, and little oc the phone should kick some ass and then some, i mean it already does. oh and sometimes it lags, but is minimum, even my g2 lags at times.

for 215 total is a great deal, and with cyanogen, or any nice custom rom this phone would be something just awesome. i really wish this phone takes off and devs look at it, because is worth it, yeah for the price range theres the lg for virgin, but you can't go wrong if you have boost with this phone.

again, i hope this phone takes off and devs and custom goodness comes afloat because is well deserved.
[Android General] AEguyNYC5:
Hello,

I am very interested in this phone as I am looking to leave TMobile and this combination of phone Android plus the all-inclusive plan with shrinkage seems to be the best option for me. What I am wondering is has anybody opened the phone yet? I currently have a Samsung Vibrant and I had a Samsung Galaxy S 4G, and would like to know if the inside components are similar? I would like to install the 4G camera (FFC mod 5mp back-facing) in this Prevail, just wondering if the ribbon/connector for the camera is the same, since the location and design seems the same.

Thanks
[Android General] lol Qaeda:
Even if there were some parts compatibility (which I doubt; the SGS lineup are all 4" and roughly the same dimensions) I don't think you'd find a working ROM or other setup that allowed you to use that FFC.
[Android General] RacerX780:
Will Boost port your phone number from another carrier??

I'd like to be able to keep my #, but it's not a deal breaker if they can't.....
[Android General] bbwayne:
Happy with Prevail so far....

Got the phone in the mail yesterday as I'm dumping T-Mobile since ATT is buying them. I am replacing my wife's original MyTouch so the Prevail is an upgrade. Yes, you can transfer your number according to their activation page. However, I am waiting a few days to make sure everything is working.
[Android General] natalic:
The NV items are locked! I've been able to read the AAA and HA shared keys but thats not too hard. I was only able to get 1x, do I need Sprints AAA key?Because lets be honest now...this phone is not that great for a real user. I paid my $200 for it, i will be using it for what i want!
[Android General] Dr.Ama:
Usually if you call the customer service number after you've purchased

the phone and tell them that the store couldn't/refused to port your

number, they will do it then. It usually takes a couple hours for the

port to complete. You may still be able to port that number in.
[Android General] SRTDOC:
I upgraded fro Motorola I1 to Prevail

I like the phone its my second android. I had the Motorola i1 but its only 1.5 and no upgrade in sight. I will have to say that Iden is tons slower than 3g. Its a great phone and I am happy paying 35 a month since I have been with Boost Mobile for 1 1/2 years
[Android General] Mutate:
Not sure how that $35 is working for you......

I was wondering how that works for you. I, and several of my friends, have been with Boost for over a year. We ALL got the same answer when the shrinkage plan started up. It is a different plan, we literally had to switch from the original unlimited plan. Your payment credits don't get pro-rated, you have to start from scratch with payments towards shrinkage, so it's only possible to be at the $45 level, which I am. Just an observation.
