Good example but pretty useless lol.. honestly I enjoy helping out people that's why I'm around here. Helping people makes me feel accomplished no matter what the scenario but fixing the same thing over and over gets to the point where its redundant and you want to get the point across to hit the search button. Hell most of the time ill even link to the thread but when I'm on my phone like I am currently I can't. I enjoy helping but I enjoy even more helping people who can help themselves.

i totally agree with neidlinger on his points. I started with a G1, Mytouch 3g, mytouch slide, and now MT4G. I read everything i could get my hands on how to root and reread it again. If i still didn't understand something, then i would ask a question or search for it. Most of the posts i read nowadays, people want to be spoon-fed out of sheer laziness.

[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
im running the stable version of CM7 and i flashed the oc kernel for CM7 and when i went to reboot it i got stuck in a bootloop! please help me!
[Nook Color General] dpakrr:
when you moved from the nookie comb to cm7, there are two things you absolutely must have done:

1. made sure you flashed cm7 using an ext4 clockwork mod example 3.0.0.6

2. made sure you formatted system, data and cache. all three are a must.

having said that, some people have been stuck on the cm7 bootscreen for as much as 20 mins before it loaded. hope that isnt the case here as mine always loads within two mins during the first boot.
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
i did, i was running cm7 for an hour then tried to flash the kernel. should i reflash cm7?
[Nook Color General] jun_ng_1208:
Which kernel did u flashed and is it designed for Desire? Try flashing another kernel maybe :)
[Nook Color General] dpakrr:
no dont reflash cm7. just force shut down and boot into recovery and make sure you flashed the proper kernel.

should have been this one (assuming u have cm7 on your emmc).

http://nook.handhelds.ru/dalingrin/kernels/040411/update-CM7-dalingrin-OC-emmc-040411.zip

flash that. if it still bootloops then reflash cm7 and flash the kernel right after
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
alright will try this

Edit: no luck. time to reflash...

Only problem with that is that it hasn't been updated for a long time with all of the fixes. I for one would love to see a stock sense 2.0 ROM. As I like the stock HTC theme. One reason I love the Incredible S port. It's not 100% functional yet, but it hasn't been modified like crazy.

It wouldn't be so bad if we could reinstall the HTC Skin, but the ROM's themes are always based on it. So you can change the skin to others, but not the stock HTC one.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
1) root the device and turn s=off. Threads in the development section

2) visit the Cyanogen mod CM7 thread

[sent via Cyanogen powered Android]
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicgraner:
Root your phone via one of the many available methods although the gfree has seemed to have some issues. I'd recommend visionary method. Once you have root and have S-off install Rom manager via the market and flash clockwork (and correct me if I'm wrong as I get confused a lot with recoveries build #'s lol) mod recovery version 2.5.1.2, 3.0.0.5 or 3.0.0.6. 3.0.0.6 is the best available currently. After flashing clockwork in Rom manager (its the first thing that pops up) scroll to download Rom and download cyanogen mod 7 rc4 from that menu. (You will have finished downloading the rom and have booted into recovery by now) MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE PRECEDING. Then Wipe data and cache via recovery and then go to install zip via SD card then choose it again find the .zip file for cm7 and hit install. It WILL take awhile to install. After it finishes reboot. Again this will take awhile. Once it comes up, wait 3 minutes or so then reboot. Then set up and your good to go. Once you've done that its basically rinse repeat for other roms. But remember to read the roms flashing instructions before hand as it may have some wacky process for flashing. Good luck! :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Not to nitpick, but 3.0.2.4 is the latest version. It just came out the other day, so that's probably why you're not aware. :)

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Once you're finished with that tutorial, you'll be rooted and have a custom recovery installed. At that point, create a Nandroid backup, and then wipe all three items in the recovery menu and install the custom ROM. There is no direct Nexus S port to the MT4G, but CM7 and RoyalGinger are essentially the same thing, and in fact better, so check those out in the dev section.
[Defy General] BassAddict:
I bought a Motorola Defy 2 days ago, and it will arrive tomorrow. I have been eying the Defy up ever since it first launched, because of the -40 degree temp. I love Android, and snowmobiling/ATV riding! I plan to use this Phone with GPS on the snowmobile and ATV.

Thing is, I started doing some research and noticed it has a locked bootloader.. I performed rooting and custom recovery installations on 3 other "unlocked bootloader" phones. But, now someone ended up cracking the bootloader causing the installation of 2ndinit app, which allows installation of a custom recovery.

My questions are: 1. Does the Super One Click still work for the rooting of the Defy?

2. Is the 2ndinit all I need for the recovery mod? Or, do I need clockwork mod, as well?

I have been reading the development thread, but with the SBF to the 2ndInit app, I am just confused :confused:
[Defy General] antony.ps:
1. Yes, SuperOneclick works on Defy (see the wiki)

2. Recovery works with defy, even without unlocked bootloader. Just install the apk without ADB on.

There's a 2nd init and others things happening in the dev channel now, but with this 2 things above you can do everything you need with defy (not custom kernels, today, but everybody is working on it now)
[Defy General] drakeM:
yes, the 2nd-init will probably allow us to load custom kernels on our defy, it's great! The developer quarx has already loaded the cyanogenmod 7 on his defy, even if there are still some bugs. But this is a great first step!:D

ps: sorry for bad english :D
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beebop483:
I wanted to ask the community to see if my experience is unique, or of other people have had this problem. I've been loving my G-Tab since I recieved it off woot, the only problem is that the device started to stop charging while plugged in a week or so ago. At first I could move the plug a little and the device would start charging again. After a few days of this, the unit stopped charging altogether, and I found out that the 1.7v receptor on the tablet had broken free from the circuit board. I called viewsonic G-Tablet support so that I could have my unit repaired or replaced. I called the first day, and gave them my info, they said they would call me back. I called 5 hours later, and got the same song and dance, no one called me back. I submitted an email to viewsonic to see if they could just ship me a box so I can send the tablet in for repair. I got call saying that I would be contacted the following buisiness day. The following day came and went, and I have not been contacted.

Has anyone else had to put up with this kind of bull**** from viewsonic before? Thier phone support has been god awful, and I find it completely unexcuasable that I have to wait 72 hours before I can even start the process of getting my tablet replaced/repaired.

Something happened over the weekend - the CS center completely changed and now they seem to be severely understaffed and, imo, not trained. This is US Merchants btw, not Viewsonic (that's public knowledge tmk, I asked the CS rep over the phone yesterday who they worked for and he told me).

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roebeet:
It's US Merchants. Even the old number was (I believe) US Merchants and not Viewsonic. But they must have made an organizational change in-house, last weekend. I think the current setup is much worse than what they had, at least so far.

Can you please lead me the right direction as to where i can get details to bring back to stock.. I have CWmod 8 so i would need to get rid of that as well so not sure which route is the best. If i can get the stock firmware and just load it via CWm or NVflash. Also if i do Nvflash and experience reboots how can i get out of that.

Thanks again.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pr0cs:
Well, that's not entirely true. CM7 is already on the device so that statement is out the window to start with.

What it does mean though is that the device loses some functionality with the lost support. Video playback is pretty limited beyond Froyo 2.2.

You have to look at the device now. Does it do what you want? If your entire purchase was based not on what it does currently but what it 'may' be able to do then it does lose some value.

For the $284 I paid for the device it still does 99% of what I want it to do. There are less than 100 tablet oriented apps on the market anyway. I don't expect that number to grow exponentially either given the cost of entry for a Honeycomb device and the seriously limited audience. That means that almost all of the software that exists on the market will work on your device now and by the time the tablet software section gets more attractive you'd probably be looking for a new device anyway.

my 2c anyway.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sundar2012:
i just bought a g-tablet - do you recommend returning and getting the asus?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roebeet:
I believe that cwm gets removed, at least via my own testing. Worst case, you can use nvflash to wipe it.

Oh boy, how to answer that? :)

Here's my honest answer, regardless of my own bias against Viewsonic at this particular moment. Your device probably cost you ~$300, I assume? You have the device in hand now, and it's still at least $100 less than the ASUS. If the device does what you need it to do, I would still consider keeping it.

The big pros on the ASUS, imo, is the IPS screen and the obvious "newness" giving it the edge from a support standpoint. Plus, you don't need to hack it for the Market. But it is $100 more and we don't know when it will be released in the States yet. And you don't get a USB port without the dock, keep in mind.

The pros on the GTAB is that you have it in your hand right now, there is a major development effort and mods galore, and it is easily hackable (the ASUS is still TBD). But there's issue of vendor support that we are all concerned about.

I don't like my GTAB because of the screen angles, and it's the reason why it ended up being relegated to a dev unit. But, besides that, I still think it's decent bang for the buck if it does what you need it to do. For me, I am probably getting an ASUS for the IPS screen, but again that's because I need good screen angles and the best screen within my price range.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cd112:
Thanks Roebeet.. Ill try this out..

Do you think i should hang on to my gtab or return it.. I am going to give a call to the Viewsonic number and find out what the case is as well about the update servers and if we are getting anymore updates. I have until 4/28 to return this unit to TD.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sundar2012:
Ok then - i could get both. but then how do i convince my girlfriend to use the g-tablet and not the asus...
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roebeet:
Same as what I wrote on the previous page - since you know about XDA and the mods, try them out. If they work for you, then I would recommend keeping it. It was a good buy, but it's not going to work for everyone. You'd have to decide if the mods work the way you want them to. :)

I wouldn't go on my decision, if I decide to sell mine. There are several devs here who are working on mods, so I don't see XDA development dropping anytime soon.

I can't help you, there. :)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beebop483:
I had one question, I figured I'd tack it on here instead of starting a new thread.

Does Viewsonic repair G-tabs even if you have put custom firmware on it? My tab still has about 40% charge that I'm saving incase I have to NVflash back to stock, but if I don't have to reflash it, it would save me some time.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notsob2002:
Don't know if they will repair one or not with custom rom as that voided warranty
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beebop483:
Oh well, I guess I'll use NV flash to get it back to stock just in case. Here's a questions though...

Since viewsonic is dragging thier feet on giving me the info I need to send the device in for repair...what would happen if I just repackaged everything, brought the box into Office Depot and tried to exchange it? I know they won't give me a refund without a reciept, but if I bring it back in the original packaging, I may be able to just do a straight exchange and let Office Depot worry about sending it back to viewsonic to be repaired.

Has anyone tried ordering the G-tab from an online retailer, then exchange it at a brick and mortar store? I've done this in the past with items, and usually as long as your exchanging an item and not trying to return it for cash, they will accept the item without a reciept.

Hmmm...Looks like I have something to do this morning when I get off work.

EDIT----Nevermind, it looks like Woot sent out a replacement to me and it should arrive tomorrow. I had no Idea that Woot had thier own 30 day warranty, and that they would have such a pain free exchange process!
