[LG Optimus 2x] elpeterson:
EDIT: This thread answered my question

This is in reference to the unrEVOked Root Friendly Phone list.

The Optimus 2X/TMo G2X is listed as a good choice:

The good choice devices have security, but the security is either weak or has been broken in all versions. Alternatively, they may have writable boot/system partitions, but no fastboot (requiring a temporary root to write that may be fixable in a future system update). There's no guarantee that future versions of the device will be rootable, but as of the most recent update they are rootable. Check with forums to confirm before you purchase a phone on this list!

Any phone that relies on a software root in Linux to flash images and may receive system updates will be in this list, since a future update may make this difficult.

With that being said, what do you Devs think about this phone? I currently own an incredible and the dev support is second to know and has never faced any issues like what is currently seen with Moto devices and the upcoming HTC devices. This will be my first LG and I don't want something like the GB update to make it so that the device will never be rootable again.

Am I just being paranoid?

FWIW I'd be getting the G2x from Tmo

Hi All,

I found no hint about SIP support in Gingerbread on SGS (I'm running 2.3.3). Are you also lacking the SIP feature? I read on Android website that SIP may be enabled/disabled according to provider choice (and it seems Samsung went on the safe side, and disabled it).

Do you think any custom kernel/csc/other-stuff might be used to enable it?

Thanks for the support!

The only problem is now the storage on the phone, ther is almost no space on the phone... When I set up active sync on my phon, will the emails take place in the phone or the SD card?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azer0:
I think the low storage issue is most probably coz of your /system partiton (400mb cfg file?). Now I don't know what size your roms /system cfg file should be (next time link to your rom, makes it easier for us to solve your problem), therefore I can't give an accurate answer right now, but to increase space you either have to find what /system your rom uses and flash cfg accordingly or make an EXT2/3/4 partiton on your sd card and use a2sd.

Can you explain "to use sd-ext partition download data2ext from the same page." in a way a girl can understand?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azer0:
That's it, there wont be more than that, maybe if you tweaked the flash.cfg you'd get ~50M more. That's where you sd-ext will come into play, its the same as your internal space but hosted in your SD, and that's where your apps and data will be stored, instead of the actual interal memory.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Hegemor:
But how can I tweak that file... so I get more space..

Im so confused...

Sorry for all the stupid questions...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azer0:
If you implement sd-ext then you don't need the extra space coz your ext2/3/4 will be used instead. As for data2sd, I think the rom you are using has a2sd, which means that if you had setup an ext2/3/4 then a2sd will automatically detect you ext partition and will install all your apps there (ext partition).

In any case here is a link to increase internal memory http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11189394&postcount=1826, now this is rom specific and I don't know if it'll work with your rom.

Brandon also said 4 months ago that ms will make sideloading possible for all. I dont believe him. Probably developer unlocked devices will get mango like 1 day before the official release of mango, which btw will most likely be 100000 weeks before all other will get it through their carriers. :p

We will see what happens I guess. I'm not expecting it to be rolled out simultaneously with the tool update though, but definitely before public release.

Earlier today, we were contacted by Brandon Watson, Director of Developer Experience for Windows Phone 7, to discuss the ChevronWP7 unlocking tool.

Through this discussion, we established a mutual understanding of our intent to enable homebrew opportunities and to open the Windows Phone 7 platform for broader access to developers and users.

To pursue these goals with Microsoft’s support, Brandon Watson has agreed to engage in futher discussions with us about officially facilitating homebrew development on WP7.

Dec 1st

http://www.chevronwp7.com/post/2057541126/pursuing-the-future-of-homebrew-on-windows-phone-7

and now tell me what has happend in this "further" discussion. Yes exactly nothing. No access to needed APIs, no officially supported homebrew, no update progress. Its just hot air coming out of his mouth...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
Like I said, you were paraphrasing it worng. Nowhere did he say that "ms will make sideloading possible for all". He said they agreed to engage in further discussions about facilitating homebrew development on WP7 - something they have done.

No access to needed APIs? You do realize they announced some 1500+ new APIs during MIX11, right? Tools are coming next month. As for homebrew development, well either you pay the $99 (or you get a free code from someone who can provide them - there are plenty around) or you wait until ManGo when there will very likely be some more news to share in regards to this. Did you really expect them to roll out a homebrew solution with NoDo?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diboze:
they can announce a lot. they also said nodo would come "early 2011", when did it arrive..ah yes, it was the 2Q of 2011. :P

Moreover I have no problem with not having a free option for unlocking. I can unlock my phone anytime with my dev acc sponsored by dreamspark.

Its just that you cant believe them anymore. We have to wait 1y to get wp7 to where the other mobile OS are.

Its easy to say that now, but at that time it had to sound like they are working on something.

I expected them to give the user more freedom. Phone and appwise. Then after nodo was not given...I just wanted the update...now I just want them to shut up. My hopes now are with hackers to open up the plattform and deliver some needed features. But even they arent interested in the OS anymore :'(
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
I wasn't very happy about the NoDo delays either, but it was released Q1. As unfortunate as the delays were I truly do think it was a one time thing. Any future updates should roll out on the date they tell us - bar operator testing of course, but since I'm on a unbranded device this is of no concern to me personally.

Sources tell me Mango will not be a year after launch, but we will see what happens there. In either case I never expected a large update before August 2011 anyways. What I did expect were lots and lots of smaller updates being rolled out with bugfixes - and this is an area they still have to work on, but Mango in the fall is right on schedule if you ask me.

To be honest, I never believed they would come up with an alternative to Chevron when the hole the tool used was closed. You may have thought so, but there was never any indication made that this would be the case.

As for hackers not being interested anymore. Are you living under a rock? DFT is working on a HSPL for the HTC line of devices and we have community sourced APIs opening up pretty much anything you could want the device to do.

Sure, I can understand where you're coming from - but at the same time I do think they are trying very hard to become more transparent. Can't really ask for more than that.

They just opened up what should have already been there :)

It was not ment as an criticism towards the devs. I love what they do here. But they just dont have enough options to make the apps we users want.

And now there is no indication that they will give developers priority on mango? So what makes you think, that they will "deliver" this time?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emigrating:
There is indications. Brandon Watson has said we are working on it. Joe Belfiore said "no plans" which was apparently taken out of context enough for him to expand his answer days after saying basically the same as Brandon.

Sure, it might be more smoke and empty promises, but these people saying this compares very well with what they (and other senior team members) have said in the past - things which were now presented at MIX11.

Ok... well I got a Samsung Focus. This is my first smartphone coming from a Pantech Pursuit, a (?) Quickfire, and an LG shine. It's absolutely amazing how fun and how great this thing is compared to those phones (although its a bit odd that some of those were more feature rich than this).

Anyway.. I have a few questions probably mostly relating to the WP7 software. If anyone can answer all or some of these.. that'd be great.

1. Not sure I full understand the start button thing. So, yes, it takes me back to the home screen. But is my previous app or page still running? For example if I'm playing a game, hit the home screen, go into another game, hit the home screen... are both of those games still running and slowing down my phone? Is it best to hit the start button when I want to end something, or is it best to hit the back button until I'm home?

2. Picture messaging. I have unlimited texts and pics with ATT. I also have data off since I'm on a limited data plan. However, it won't let me send picture messages with data off. Does it use the data connection to send pictures, but in this specific case it charges it as a picture message (free) rather than data usage?

3. Calendar. Is there a way to set tasks and stuff rather than appointments?

4. Calls. How can I look at previous call info, such as call time? It only appears to give me the call time and nothing else. Not a big deal if that's it.. but kind of weird.

5. Messaging. How can I delete all, rather than just delete a specific convo? Is there a drafts folder?

6. Pictures. Can I organize these on my phone? It says it takes down gps location, but I can't find a way to actually view that info.. do I need to upload it to skynet or something?

7. Where's a good nav?? Where's my damn update??

:) Thanks!

I think I have more questions but that's all I can think of for now.
