any help?

verizon xperia play
[Xperia Arc General] alfre99:
if i have the xperia play 2.3.3 i can't unlock the bootloader right?
[Xperia Arc General] Flo95:
Did it 5 weeks ago and it worked perfect on my Arc that had a Telekom branding when I got it.
[Xperia Arc General] hakhater:
thanks for the TUT
[Xperia Arc General] Notizen:
So you can't unlock the Bootloader of CDMA Xperia Play's?
[Xperia Arc General] AriStar:
does this work on 2.3.3 from Rogers?
[Xperia Arc General] Flo95:
I think Rogers removed the ability to unlock it.

But you can try if it goes into fastboot or not.

By the way, does unlocking the bl also remove the se app to view the pics directly out of the camera app?
[Xperia Arc General] kiz1983:
The only thing affected is the apps that is using DRM, such as track id and some of facebook features as the DRM files is deleted once you unlocked your boatloader..

So if you really need the xperia facebook integration and trackid, don't unlock the bootloader..
[Xperia Arc General] Flo95:
I unlocked it a while ago.

I just want to know if that app contains DRM, because when I click on a image in the cam apl now it asks if I wanna use 3D Gallerie or Quickpic and I don't get the SE picture view app anymore.
[Xperia Arc General] kicoi:
I own SO-01c (Xperia Arc of Docomo Japan). It's been debrand and be available on 2.3.4. The problem is I've attempted to unlock bootloader several times but impossible either on win xp or win7 with full drivers. Any issues to make it works?
[Xperia Arc General] Flo95:
Does it boot into fastboot?
[Xperia Arc General] kicoi:
Not at all. The led frequently was red instead of blue as tutorial clip. Automatically be in charge and no normal boot. May i have to surrender otherwise any another ways?
[Xperia Arc General] Flo95:
You can't do it with the official method if it starts to charge.

One guy here offers a remote unlock via se tool. That works for phones that are unable to boot into fastboot
[Xperia Arc General] Jinx13:
Well there is 3 of us :) And keeping DRM intact ;)
[Xperia Arc General] kicoi:
Really? It sounds so complicated way, right? I think I should not take a risk for any damage. Anw, tks for info.
[Xperia Arc General] Jinx13:
It's very easy and no damage :) I sent a PM anyway send a reply and we can talk further with no obligation
[Xperia Arc General] :
I have a XP i386 Notebook and have extracted the fastboot folder, installed my play as adb android interface. So when i try to klick shift and right mousebutton it opens the menu, but there's no option "open new command window" ..

pleas help me !! thanks

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Rapax:
I have a directory full of ascii files (.txt and .html) on my SD card. What I need is an app that can do a full text search for a keyword within all those files. Does anyone know of such an app?

I wrote something along those lines a while back, but its slow and not very well written, as I'm a terrible coder. If there's anything out there, it'll likely be better than what I have.

Anyone know how to set up Hotmail uk,i have tried the ms exchange and the normal email setup and cant get it to work
[LG Optimus 2x] mikeyd85:
Hotmail.com works fine with the email app using pop3.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Im on now trying it with pop3 and it aint working

using these

POP3: pop3.live.com (port 995)

SMTP: smtp.live.com (port 25)

Outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication.

Username: your full email address

Password: your Windows Live ID password
[LG Optimus 2x] MrThomsen:
Try using port 587 for the outgoing server (smtp.live.com)

also what safety type are you using?
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
SSL security
[LG Optimus 2x] MrThomsen:
I believe you should use SSL for the incoming connection and TLS for the outgoing connection and again on the 587 port for the outgoing not 25.

How are these settings working for you?
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Excellent thanks
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enectic:
Mine has a completely dead row of pixels so I called in to RMA today. I got a RMA number quick however they weren't clear on what to send. I asked if I should send in the accessories along with the tablet and the person on the other line gave me a pretty vague answer and said that she would because they were probably going to send me a new tablet. I'm afraid that if I don't send in the accessories they won't accept my RMA or that if I do they might just send me a tablet alone without any accessories. Anyone had any experience?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enectic:
Well...

Guess I'll be the guinea pig :). Just shipped the tablet off to their RMA department which is located in California. I made sure to flash the ROM and recovery back to stock before I shipped it. For anyone who's wondering what was wrong with my tablet I've attached a picture. That line in the middle is an entire row of semi-dead pixels. Displays blue and green fine but nothing else. Only had it for around two weeks too :(. So far the RMA process has been pleasant. I was able to get an RMA number within minutes of calling. Wish I didn't have to pay for shipping ($14 from Arkansas to Cali) but oh well. Now I play the waiting game.
[Atrix 4G General] jodahall:
Hey Guys....

When i send a email from my gmail account (on a PC) if that email address is not in my gmail contacts it gets created as a contact on my phone !!

I'm not sure if this motoblur doing this or is it gmail. a contact isn't created in my gmail contacts just in the contacts of my atrix. when i click on the new contact it says it's a linked contact from google.

anyone else experience this....is there a setting i'm missing ??
[Atrix 4G General] cegna09:
go to contacts, hit the menu button, select more, settings, then click phone numbers only.
[Atrix 4G General] jodahall:
that option doesn't exist....when i go to contacts -> menu -> more -> settings all it has are two sections "new contacts" and "sim card contacts" with checkboxes to enable them or not. I don't see "phone numbers only".
[Atrix 4G General] bongd:
^^^

This!!!

Also, I heard Google is going to end that annoying thing where contacts are automatically added. I hate flashing a new ROM or reloading my Contacts list to see a bunch of stupid email addresses everywhere. I'm a neat freak.
[Atrix 4G General] cegna09:
Bell Atrix? I'm on the AT&T one.

i assure you it is there for me. Try stumbling though all the contact settings.
[Atrix 4G General] y2whisper:
Its not there for bell users. something i discovered as I have 200+contacts that are in there that aren't in my contacts.

Gmail (via your pc) now has the option to stop from saving email addresses to your contacts. Along with that you can delete those other contacts from there (if you don't need them) I ended up saving the ones I knew I'd use for sure and deleting the rest.
[Atrix 4G General] plemen:
This is one of those little things that I noticed right away and really bugs me - why would Bell/motorola take this feature out? It's so useful.
[Atrix 4G General] jodahall:
good...i'm glad it wasn't just me (yes i'm on a bell atrix). Thanx for your help guys

funny thing was i came from a nexus one and they have the option to do "phone numbers only" too.

I love the atrix for a number of things, but sometimes i miss the simple bare bones of the nexus one interface....or as some call it "the pure google experience"
[Atrix 4G General] y2whisper:
same here with the N1 and that was turned on by default. also the ability to show contacts by groups was nice to have. not sure why manufacturers take stuff away from the "pure experience" and not just focus on adding stuff to it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gurry:
Hi there

Im struggling with my flashing ... oo er

Im following the guide to flash android to the hd2

I followed step one with hspl and got the We've hacked it message

Next stage is radio flash via Custom RUU

I run the RUU and the install hits 100% (only takes about 30seconds to flash not the ten minutes stated on the dialogue screen on the pc)

the problem is the phone reboots to the white screen with Green HTC logo and freezes at this point. It doesnt run a full reboot.

When I try to reflash the RUU fails.

Could this be a faulty radio image? If so can some one post a link to a mirror for the best radio for the HD2?

I will try the other suggestions of different usb ports etc.

BTW I am using the latest Win mobile Center and have the RUU running as administrater.

Many thanks

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] conantroutman:
Hmmm, few questions........

What kind of HD2 do you have.. US, European??

What radio do you currently have?

What radio are you trying to flash?

Can you get to bootloader (3 coloured screen) by turning on while holding vol. down?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mskip:
Can you enter Bootloader Mode and verify that your HardSPL install completed successfully and that you now have SPL-2.08.HSPL on the second line.

If that is ok then try flashing the Radio using the SD Card method as stated in my flashing guide (renaming the nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh copy to the root of your storage card and reboot into bootloader mode).

Mark.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gurry:
Im confused now - I did the update again after flashing a stock rom via the sd card method. The radio updated and the rom started the self set up sequence.

I removed the battery - re ran hspl loaded fine,

confirmed its installed rebooted fine to rom rom.

powered off back into boot loader ran custom ruu - the progress bar ran to 100%. Phone rebooted and again is stuck at the green htc logo on the white backgroud with no radio details in the bottom left hand corner?

I re downloaded the file for the radio so ts wasnt corrupted.

Ill try the leoimg.nbh method see if that works.

WELL Thanks to the replies and starting AGAIN from scratch and updating the radio the sd card way Ive gotten it all working.

thanks for all the info.

Sometimes a little patience and a fresh pair of eyes so to speak - works wonders

Gurry
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
What radio? Cos the symptoms sound like what happens when you load a 51 radio with a 576 enabled rom.... ie it hangs at RGD info screen without any RGD info showing.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bohemus:
Is there a single update.zip that I can download and flash with the stock recovery that has the latest radio and hboot built in? I'm coming from stock 2.1
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
I believe HTC posted the full image on their site today...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bohemus:
I downloaded the zip and tried flashing using the stock recovery, says its not signed.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Ahhh, it's possible in the format for doing the passimg then. You could try that, but you will lose data and settings...

There is a full image in the ROM section of the wiki, have you tried that?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bohemus:
Yeah, tried renaming it to PASSIMG.ZIP and flashing using the stock bootloader and nothing happens. The stock GRI40 on the wiki fails because its looking for the new HBOOT.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Looks like you're down to multiple files then...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
look at the PASSIMG.zip

Sometimes I've found the actual PASSIMG.zip is inside the passimg.zip compressed folder. Open the zip to see if you find another zip... or files.

Booting the phone by holding down the trackball should automatically load the flash and away you should go.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bohemus:
Inside the PASSIMG.ZIP are boot.img system.img recovery.img and userdata.img

When booting it recognizes the PASSIMG file is there and starts checking it. Then does nothing.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
It's in the right format for passimg, so it's strange that it's not working. Do you get any error messages?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bohemus:
Wish it gave me a message, it just drops back to the bootloader screen with the skateboards.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bohemus:
Maybe its just not possible to upgrade from EPE76 direct to GRI40?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
I would try the passimg with FRG33, and then see if you can apply GRI40?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
My signature has a link for the 0.35 HBOOT.

I haven't seen a link to the 5.08 radio by itself (in a Google-signed, flashable zip), but it is included in the update links to GRI40.

The file that danger-rat is referring to on HTC's website is NOT a full shipped ROM. In order to be able to use that file, you need to already be on HBOOT 0.35 AND radio 5.08.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
Try flashing the HBOOT from my sig, then flash this:

http://android.clients.google.com/p...b119f8.signed-passion-ota-102588.656099b1.zip which includes the 5.08 radio.

It should take to to fully-stock Gingerbread!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bohemus:
Is it possible to take the GRI40 image from developer.htc.com and insert the 5.08 radio.img and hboot.img. Rename the whole thing to PASSIMG.ZIP and flash that?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
NO...

But what seems to be the problem? Flash the HBOOT, then flash the Gingerbread update and you are set.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TubeShaped:
Devs are doing their best to port the Nexus S kernel to the Sgs in order to get rid of the Samsung firmwares. But whats exactly the difference to the phones supported by Cm7 and MIUI? Is it the proprietary bootloader? Is the desire hd bootloader open source? Or is it the samsung kernel which isnt compatible? What kernel do they use on cm7 phones? I learned a lot in the forums but Im not a dev so maybe someone could help me out.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] branalvere:
The bootloaders are standard froyo samsung. The roms are based on modified AOSP code so have nothing related to Samsung on them.

CM7 (and MIUI) are smoother and faster than stock and support custom kernels with modified sound colour and CPU settings so offer more functionality.

They have worse cameras, and are still being developed so not everything works all the time.

Forget desire HD, that has nothing to do with it

Vote here for the HTC Sensation to get Cyanogen Mod Support:

http://twtpoll.com/r/hsrsfj

Please share this poll. If we can get the dev to get a HTC Sensation we'll get CM on the phone.
[HTC Sensation] cmstlist:
If the bootloader is locked as tightly as the Incredible S, then it's going to take a lot more than a dev with a phone to get CM on your device...
[HTC Sensation] stefan.buddle:

[HTC Sensation] MrHassell:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/forum/169-htc-desire-hd-htc-inspire/

So why is this so hard? If it's already out for the DHD, the chances are it will make it to the Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] cmstlist:
The encryption methods on Thunderbolt, Incredible S & Sensation are heavier than on the Desire HD first of all.

A hack for the Thunderbolt was found based on a downgraded leaked firmware that could be flashed as a means to achieve S-OFF. A similar approach was tried already for the Incredible S, but so far it has failed.

I suggest poking around the Incredible S Development forum if you want to stay updated on the prospects of hacking the Sensation too.

Got my vote

[HTC Sensation] epsix:
That's Cyanogen himself, he doesn't like Sense UI. But others members will support Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] sub0min0us:
I don't know if it is just me but I'll buy sensation for sense 3.0 so having cyanogen doesn't makes "sense" imho. Cyanogen can be seen installed on low end devices and having it on sensation will make it look the same as low end devices. If I want cyanogen, I'll buy another one. Maybe desire or something cheaper. Just my opinion. No offense.
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
You're right, I buy HTC Sensation for Sense UI 3.0. But for people that like AOSP CM7 will give them choices.

PS Look like Samsux troll are out in force.... hahahaha funny as hell.
[HTC Sensation] ro-mann:
Well, if you like Sense 3.0, then leave it on! No one forces you to install CM! I like the possibilities of individualising your phone with Cyanogen Mod!
[HTC Sensation] killersnowman:
Ehh everyone is different. Personally i feel sense, even in its old version, was pretty bloated. Now in its crazy 3d implementation it is even more so. I buy a device based on if its supported by cm7.

Its from my damn phone!!!
[HTC Sensation] Buck Shot:
Damn, this is almost a deal breaker. I was really looking forward to this being supported by Cyanogen. Not that they still wont. I own a N1 and been running Cyan from the begining. I am not looking forward to an LG phone. It scares me. HTC builds quality phones. I hear a bunch of things about the Gx2 but if its cyan software, it may solve some issues. This phone looks so damn good tho
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
i wanna CM on HTC Sensation too.

how its going ?
[HTC Sensation] ro-mann:
Ask charansingh, he's on the board too.

[HTC Sensation] ratchetnclank:
I'd like CM on it too. Love the sensations hardware but sense looks a bit dated and bloated to me now.
[HTC Sensation] steve austin:
I have tried most of the UI's. Sense, by far, is the heaviest and most restrictive one. From the standard 16 apps 4x4 screen configuration to the inability to adjust certain widgets to smaller sizes. Therefore, Sense is gone for me anyway. I would welcome the mod support if I get one.

[HTC Sensation] jacktheripher:
A question sir

So any word no that we will be unlocked for sure... search led me here.... have we been forgotten.... HAVE WE BEEN FORGOTTEN....DHD
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
CM was always coming to the Sensation; it's an HTC device.

We don't need bounties here.
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
wow, thats a rather facetious statement...

and IF (thats a big if) it does get ported for S4G, it wont be complete, or cooked by CM devs.

expect the first slew of roms for the S4G to be scrubbed sense 3.0 roms or GB 2.3.3/2.3.4 ASOP.

what im excited to see is what kernels some devs come out for this thing :)

also, im in the works of retooling sense 2.1 for the S4G (clearly i prefer sense :P), but as it stands, the hardware stacks are going to be the biggest obstacle for compatibility...

and no flames to that last statement, its a presonal preference, and doesnt make me "wrong" in anyway, just having fun with this amazing hardware :)
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
It wasn't a facetious statement. Perhaps you can enlighten me as to why the Sensation would be the first high-end HTC device to struggle with obtaining CM support?
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
read 5 posts up, hows that for enlightenment?

EDIT: there are SOOOOOO many reasons why its difficult to port for S4G, you cant just assume that because its an HTC fone, that CM is destined for it...

like i said tho, they eventually WILL be ports, but im almost certain than charang and them wont have anything to do with it
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
My mistake. I assumed you had more knowledge than me.
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
lol i try to never express that on XDA, i might as well light myself on fire in real life :P

i did enjoy CM on older devices because it brought them back to life, but with this current gen hardware, it almost seems moot to put the effort to bring it over.

not to mention some of the amazing devs who are jumping on the S4G bandwagon (NRGZ, cant wait to see what you provide!)

im hoping that some more illustrious devs come over like imilka and dungphp. and when sense SDK gets released, this place is gonna blow up with amazing Sense 3.0 edits.
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
While I understand this latest thought that hardware advancement and OEM software refinement have made CM less relevant to some users, in my opinion (and likely many others) there will always be a desire to maintain this light-weight open source, community-driven system. CM is not just another ROM; it's an organism that grows everyday via the open source spirit of its contributors and freedom-loving passion of its users. Even if my phone had an octuplet-core chip, I'd still want CM driving it.

Just a glance here speaks volumes about the future of CM.

So yeah, I really don't care what one contributor said on Twitter two months ago.
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
while i do agree with most of that, i found that most modern (2009+) versions of CM 6 and 7 are VERY similar to ASOP releases from google...

im not saying im against CM on the S4G, to each their own, but what im arguing is that a poll/vote is irrelevent to the facts at hand concerning the security on this phone...just because we get S-OFF doesnt mean we have 100% access to everything, but its an amazing start that will lead to great things for this device.

CM very much embodies the heart of unix and open source community driven software, but if the devs cant be bothered, then the best i forsee the S4G getting is a heavily tweaked direct port of the DHD, or the incredible S version when its @ final
[HTC Sensation] dlads:
When Alpha rev have sorted out the s-off and such (which they will) i'm sure that the CM team will port over some sort of rom for us rom addicts, it's not a case of if it's a case of when, so allow the dev's and the guys working on the dirty locks which have been put in place to work their magic and we'll soon see rom's coming from all angles.

It's possible and it will be done. :)

Just have patience.

And remember you could have picked a nokia ;)
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
Besides lack of bloat, I'm not seeing how it's so similar to AOSP. The volume of tweaks from the dialer app to the auto brightness leveling is staggering once you really dig into CM.

As for dev support, there will be plenty. Off the top of my head I remember Soyars and Cyanogen himself expressing interest in picking up the Sensation once s-off is achieved. Not to mention there are probably legions of others just lurking and waiting to begin their work. Those threads don't get to 40,000 views just from the 60 people posting replies.
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
again, this is a user preference, because almost all that stuff can come as an app or pushed with full root, CM just integrates it for ease of the user...

either way, i think i should stop posting in this thread because i feel a pointless argument starting up from both sides because we agree to disagree, and that wasnt my purpose :P

i just hope the S4G gets as many devs and creative roms as the HD2 did, to catapult HTC devices above and beyond samsung and lg, like the good old days :P
