[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrpurplehawk:
I have been rooted for awhile via unrevoked, but my microphone went out a week ago, so I had to get a new evo. I went to root again but I must of done something wrong because every time I go into hboot it tells me I have to update, and then says cannot roll back hboot. It DOES say S-OFF at the top of hboot. Every time I update though hboot it resets the entire phone and I have to redo everything. I am frustrated currently because I'm not sure what to do next. Any and all help is appreciated.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
hah funny problem. the 'update' is a pc36img.zip on your sdcard. it will be on the root (that means not in any folders) of your sdcard. just delete it and you'll be fine. every time you 'update', it replaces the flash memory on your phone with the contents of the pc36img.zip (except for the protected bootloader in this case) so that's why you lose all of your stuff. it's probably a leftover from unrooting. just get rid of that, maybe reflash your recovery, and flash a rom!

just ask if you have any other questions.

Also, PC36IMG on sd card got me once before too. Kept on being like f no, I don't want to update, wtf.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
yea everybody wants to know the same things. it comes in like waves...

just delete or rename pc36img.zip to something else after you use it, or it will get on your nerves. like alot.

[Android Software Development] peterbodea:
So... with this zip file (I don't know much about unpacking it in android- I am a winmo 6.5 user). I will be able to use hotmail via exchange server and view attachments ...etc just like an regular email client would behave?

I want to migrate to Android so bad, but I don't want to give up my hotmail account. As of now this is how I am setup on winmo 6.5:

1. PH#s (contacts with PH#s) + Calendar - Gmail synced via microsoft exchange

2. Email (Hotmail) + Email contacts - synced via windows live email client

Any advise will be greatly appreciated. Also... I would like to combine somehow all my contacts in one directory that will be synced somehow between gmail (for google voice texts and calls) and hotmail (since I use this all over my PC's and add contacts from different locations. Thank you!!!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSonicEmerald:
Anyway to enable the animations for keyboard pop-up in Touchwiz (superclean, nameless, etc) like how it is with AOSP roms? Hate that the keyboard has no animation in Superclean 2.9.2.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chopper the dog:
In spare parts tick "fancy input animations" and reboot. It adds a little something to it. But the type of animation is dependent upon what was added to the theme or framework.

good day.
[Galaxy S II General] soraxd:
so the uk release date is finally official

Samsung has just delivered a most welcome (and concrete) bit of news for British smartphone lovers. Its next do-it-all Android superphone will be available on May 1st in the United Kingdom. The Galaxy S II will emulate its predecessor by being made available "across all major networks and retailers." The press release promises a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, which indicates we're looking at the Exynos 4210 variant of this handset. We'll try to track down availability information for the rest of Europe, but at least Brits can now stop fretting about the delay / non-delay of this marquee phone's launch.

well, it looks like this galaxy s2 gossip section will soon die out, and turn into help and development, i must say it was fun finding breaking news, or some foreign sellers guess of a price or release date, and posting it everywhere like its big news haha, but i really will miss the fun of the hunt for information with you all. now i guess its time to find a cheap seller eh? any suggestions?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diamondskies:
I'm gonna need to send in my G2 to get a replacement.

I have Clockwork recovery on it, the .27 radio, and I might possibly have the sim unlocked. (I'm not sure if I did that or not)

I'm sending it in because I get stuck at the HTC splash screen. My recovery is messed up, I can't restore any nandroids, and I'm unable to reflash the recovery because I don't have the engineering hboot.

I can't tell what ROM I'm running, as I can't get past the splash screen.

So basically the only functioning parts of my phone right now are the recovery (somewhat functional), and the bootloader.

Will I be able to send it in like this? I'm under warranty currently, so I would get a free replacement.

But I'm afraid if they see I have a different recovery, a different radio, s-off, etc., that they might charge me for the full retail price or something.

Do they even check the phones they get sent in? Or do they just check for physical/water damage?

If I do need to remove root, etc., is there anything I can do with just access to the recovery and bootloader? (without the eng hboot)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
One of the first things HTC will do when they get your phone, is go into bootloader and see you are S-off. Your warranty will be void, and they will send the phone back to you, or charge you for the repair.

Does ADB work? Have you tried flashing an official ROM?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diamondskies:
I do have adb set up. But don't I need superuser permissions to do anything (anything useful, at least in this case) through shell?

If I can flash an official ROM with only access to the recovery and bootloader, then I would just rather reflash Clockwork, and flash CM7 again.

Do you know how much they would charge though? I do have the insurance plan.

$130?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bloodlvst:
Does T-Mobile still go through Asurion for insurance? As someone who worked for Asurion you could say you dropped the phone or something and you could file the claim alright. I'm not sure if we actually checked the phones for rooting and such after.

If that *is* something they check though, then you might get charged extra for that after the fact.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnowOokami:
It's not possible to flash an original rom right? Else you could upgrade it and you will lose root/s-off (at least that is/was the case).

Does your insurance cover water damage?:rolleyes: throw it in your sink...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
Wait... you can get into recovery yet you want to send your phone in for service?????

This is EXACTLY why manufacturers are locking down bootloaders... I suggest you don't root your next phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spastic909:
If you have insurance on your phone let it get stolen haha. Or find out what's covered in warranty and fry the phone so it won't start up at all...heh
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spastic909:
Wtf are you talking about? If you are rooted you have superuser perms..good god, don't ever root again
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilostchild:
if you have s-off you can go into fastboot and reflash the recovery from there
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diamondskies:
Yes, I can. But as I said, I can't restore nandroids or anything. My recovery is useless.

If I tried to flash the engineering hboot (as seen in the cyanogen wiki), wouldn't I need to be able to accept su request on the phone?

I'm not too familiar with adb or how shell works, so I could definitely be wrong.

Fastboot requires the engineering hboot, which I unfortunately do not have.

I'm having pretty much exactly the same issue as this. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1029474
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortlived:
Do you think it's right to get a replacement after you broke it? you should at least pay the extra insurance so that you can acidently drop it in the sink or somthing! as someone else stated this is why companies lock everything down.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diamondskies:
I mean, if someone knows a way to fix it, that would even better. I just need a usable phone. All of the Tmo stores around me are out of loaners.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzygarcia:
If you're gonna pay Asurion the 130 bucks, you should report it "lost" that way you can keep it AND get another one.

That's what I did, I said I got really drunk and lost it and they didn't question me in any way. Haha

MOD : Can you post only Nexus One kernel on your post please (more readable)
[Nexus One Android Development] allofusjw:
Had been having some wifi issues this past week using cm7 nightly along with various kernels. Wifi was frequently dropping or just very slow. Spent most of Sunday screwing with my home network which seems stable now. I think comcast must have been doing something. however, my phone wifi was still poor. installed this kernel last night and so far phone is performing as it should on wifi. the difference was immediate. not sure whats going on. cant comment on battery life yet, but it's looking very good through this mornings use. Thank you!
[Nexus One Android Development] Cayniarb:
I'm glad it's working for you, but that is strange... The only change I make to wifi from CM is undervolting it. And now that I think about it, I may have forgotten to bring that tweak over to the n1 and desire...
[Nexus One Android Development] mr_raider:
Can you summarize how your kernel differs from the others (CM, pershoot, wildmonks, redstar).
[Nexus One Android Development] Cayniarb:
Versus the main CM kernel, this has unrestricted overclocking, HAVS, smartass, undervotling, sysfs interface and several other tweaks/improvements. I don't have a N1 and honestly dont know anything about the other kernels out there for it. The kernel started on the Inc and Evo, mostly around MIUI, and I was asked by a few people to bring it over to the N1 and Desire, so I figured I would post it up for everyone.
[Nexus One Android Development] bryanchapman9999:
Hi all,

Been running this since 0800 this morning (its now 1800) no problems at all.

Can't say its faster or better on the battery for sure but its certainly no worse than CM stock.

Whats the smartass govenor? Just the same as on demand as it seems to replace it?

Oh, just one thing, although it has the option (in SetCPU) to go down to 128mhz, I've not seen it go lower than 245mhz which makes me wonder if its clocking down to 128 with the screen off.

Anyone else?
[Nexus One Android Development] Cayniarb:
The on demand governor was removed to force the default to smartass (the default is usually set to on demand by the ramdisk and is not affected by setting the default in the kenrel), but the two are not similar. Smartass was built off the interactive governor.

As for the 128Mhz floor - that is something finicky about the smartass governor. It should drop to 128 on any other governor though.
[Nexus One Android Development] overground:
Smartass Governor shows real potential...thanks for this! :)
[Nexus One Android Development] liem107:
what about the wonk?

From what I gather the wonk is due to something in CM7 kernel. I also noticed that it is absent from stock 2.3.3 and also absent from AOSP builds.

Has anyone tried CM7 with this kernel?
[Nexus One Android Development] McAndrew73:
thanks for the N1 kernel. :)

I'll try ASAP.
[Nexus One Android Development] phewizzo:
I will try this kernel now, thanks for posting. New kernel cooks are always welcomed.
[Nexus One Android Development] overground:
After about 18 hrs on this kernel, the results are pleasing.

Extremely stable on the Smartass Governor, which is surprising because I've had friends compile me kernels incorporating this governor, and the end result = unusable.

Battery life seems fantastic so far.

Clocked 128-998. No profiles.

Thank you again for this kernel. :)
[Nexus One Android Development] atomb:
Results on N1

I have been running this kernel for 24hrs at 128/1228 and it's been running great with smartass selected on my AT&T N1. I tried going even higher than 1228 but that causes it to crash immediately (I'm surprised it can even handle 1228.) Linpack is a little low at 23 compared to other kernels that can get up to 40. Quadrant also comes up behind at only 1051.
[Nexus One Android Development] drive2droad:
tried going at the highest setting & it crashed my N1 , BACK TO RESDTAR'S kernel .
[Nexus One Android Development] phewizzo:
Been using the kernel for a few hours, Kernel seems stable but definatly doesnt feel snappy.

btw oc at 1267 without any crash :D

Could you tell me - a noob, what are the differences between your kernel (for desire) and the EViolets one and the Richard Trips one in GingerVillain?
[Desire Android Development] cr1960:
Thought I'd give your kernel a try - so far so good.

I did notice though it doesn't have an ONDEMAND govenor - defaults to SMARTASS. Performance seems OK though, time will tell regarding stability etc.

Thanks for sharing.

[Desire Android Development] Cayniarb:
This is for AOSP ROMs, so I would expect some problems on Sense.
[Desire Android Development] Cayniarb:
The kernel has interactive, conservative, performance, userspace, and smartass. On demand has been removed to force the default to smartass. With smartass, you will get a default screen-off max of 384Mhz. Available speeds are 128Mhz to 1.26Ghz (not all phones can clock that high!!).
[Desire Android Development] Cayniarb:
I don't know enough about the desire community to answer you... I don't actually have a desire - the kernel started on Inc and Evo (both of which I do have) and some n1 and desire users had been asking me to bring it over to their phones, so I finally got around to it and posted them up for everyone.

Excellent - thanks for your work on this, I'll give it a try later.

I think I fixed it by reverting this commit

As most of aosp roms are derived by the CM source..reverting that make the write speed back to normal..

here a zip that contain the modified file, u can try it and see if the speed its good after it(im not sure if it works, because its derived by CM7.1 source, do a backup before flash it)

let me know if works..dont forget do do a nandroid backup before going to flash the zip

Very fast kernel indeed. Using it in MIUI.us rom v 1.11.18. Just freezes on CPU frequency above 1113 MHz. 245 - 1113 MHz is still the best place for this kernel.

But still faster than default CM7 kernel on MIUI. :)

I have a problem too with the wifi using the 8x50 4.1.0 Tiamat Kernel.

I use an HTC Desire GSM (Bravo) with the 262 Nightly build of CM and my device is blind in the wifi channels 12, 13... I don't know about channel 14 because is not available in Europe.

The 4.1.0 is a great Kernel with CM7 and I really hope that will be possible to fix that problem.
[Desire Android Development] effepas:
An Update, I have flashed the "Cyanogenmod 7.2.0 Rc1 Desire KANG" then the Kernel 8x50 4.1.0 and now the Wifi works perfectly... so maybe the problem was in the Nightly Build 262 of Cyanogenmod 7.
