Someone on xda made that battery calibration app has anyone tryed it? btw i cant bump charge cuz of CWR turning on if my phone is off and plugged in. Which dosen't allow it to charge. Fix's?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] potcryan:
I've actually been getting much better battery life since I switched to smartass governor. I unplugged my phone at 9:45AM it's now 6:49PM and I'm at 72%
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bimmer323:
System Menu > Power > check Fastboot.

That will stop CW from booting up when your powerd off and charging.

But I thought that was fixed in the last update....??
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] CM-PRo:
Hey guys. I started this thread for the people who wanna know about the bootloader bypassing but refrain from posting in that thread, afraid of spamming it.

So......type in whatever questions you have, over here and hopefully the devs will look into it and answer our queries.

What has to be done:

Compile splboot as kernel module - should be fine - nobodyAtall

Compile miniloader for MSM7227 - probably not working OK (jerpelea)

Make boot.img with zImage and ramdisk for X8

Developers and their work:

Asdoos - signed up splboot.ko and miniloader - no progress yet

Bin4ry - side help and tips

Blagus - initiator, boot.img creator (nervous breakdown recipe )

Chumby_666 - mood-lifter in IRC and tools provider

jerpelea - kernel progress

nobodyAtall - first compilation of splboot.ko and miniloader

zdzihu - side help and tips

Progress (sorted by time):

splboot.ko - compiled by nobodyAtall - checked by jerpelea - working fine

miniloader - compiled by nobodyAtall - compiled from msm7x sources - checked by jerpelea, probably not working

ramdisk - from jerpelea - OK

kernel - needs to be compiled:

5) Ask root permissions - Allow

6) xRecovery

7) Install kernel bootkit (Advanced -> Kernel -> Install bootkit)

8) Reboot into custom kernel (Advanced -> Kernel -> Reboot custom kernel)

boot.sin exist how do you think sony update our kernel on phone.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Blagus:
kernel.sin - but I don't know what is it when sin2img used... what to do next?

There is no boot.sin. If there was, I would have seen it. I've seen boot.sin only in some of the first firmwares for X10, never again. Neither for X8, X10 Mini (Pro)...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] XperianPro:
Flash first android upgrade then update and seus should download kernel.sin
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Blagus:
I have kernel.sin already.

I think it would be really nice if someone could give us developer firmware...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] muzik_demon:
It might be amss.sin(or whatever the name is)

kernel,data,system,amss are only files you get from decrypting the seus file.

I had tried converting amss.sin to img got nothing from it,0kb file..

Sent from my X8
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] zdzihu:
sin2img works only with system images. Kernel needs to be ripped manually.

I guess you may need to to edit the ramdisk and remove/uncomment 'exec chargemon'

AMSS = baseband

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Blagus:
This bypass method actually reconstructs kexec functionality in kernel, as I told you before. But we NEED proper miniloader because it's a part of kexec bypass!

So, looks like there's really no one except slade87 who is willing to check it out :(
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] doixanh:
We already have kexec inside our kernel. Why does everybody want to reconstruct it?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Blagus:
No, we don't have it. Bin4ry alread told that. Kexec-tool is there but no kexec in kernel itself. It's present in sources but left out when compiling retail kernel for public release. And for kexec command line you have to know what is the root partition which is unknown as well.

That's why we need miniloader and splboot.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] doixanh:
Did you look into kernel source and the extracted kernel config (using my x8kconfig module)? There is kexec code inside the kernel.

Check it yourself :D

Bin4ry told that a long time ago and it is not applicable for our current kernel.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] aldee_s:
hmm, so what now? if there is kexec code in kernel, what do we do?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] oisteink:
You could start by compiling the released source and try loading that. Just remember to adhere to licences ;)

Google is your friend, both in setting up your toolchain and kexec usage
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] CaptainZap:
@aldee_s: You do nothing, just sit QUIETLY and wait for their updates as they try another way to bypass the bootloader.

Looks like it might be a VZW issue. VZW iPad 2 3G's are having problems with 3G dropping.

Can't post link yet, but just Google "Verizon Wireless 3g issues" under News.

The workaround is "re-enabling the 3G radio then rebooting the entire iPad".

iPhone's caused issues on the AT&T network and now the iPhone and iPad are probably causing network issues on VZW. :mad:

edit : with a wipe Dalvik cache it's OK :)
[Dell Streak 7] jiwengang:
Very disappointed.

Main reason, (maybe provide a unfounded ground), is that the display unit stucked at a setting/update screen that there is NO way to come out.

IN Android, you always have the option to "hit home button" hard enough to get back. And there is so such thing in QNX apparently .

Funny enough, I rebooted that device, it did not come out of that setting screen.

So the whole time, I was forced to stuck at this setting screen seeing nothing else.

There is not dedicated technical stuff for playbook so all Staple staff said "it is not working since morning", and this is its LAUNCHING DAY...

Don't they get it that part of the success of sales is to HAVE A WORKING DISPLAY UNIT in retail store???

Thanks
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpbklake:
If it is an AT&T branded phone and you have an AT&T SIM card, why would you think that your settings are messed up? Have you rooted your phone and installed a custom ROM? Even if you did, the custom ROMs that are available for the Aria should have the correct AT&T settings.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vicmora5:
Well I don't know what else it could be..

Yes to all those.

l:

I don't know why I'm not picking up 3G then.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpbklake:
OK, first I would do a 'nandroid' backup to save your current configuration. Then I would do a Wipe Data/Factory Reset and then see if you can then pick up a 3G signal. Depending on which custom ROM you have loaded, it will either show up as 3G or H (if you are running CM7). If you still can't get a signal, I would take it to AT&T and see if they can figure it out.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
Dial *#*#4636#*#* on the phone. A menu will come up. Select Phone Information. Scroll down a little bit and there is a dropbox that says "Set preferred network type:"

This setting should be set to "WCDMA preferred". If it is not set to that, change it to that then hit back to get out of the menu, and see if the 3G works after that. It might help to restart the phone after doing this.

If that doesn't do it, try finding someone else you know with an AT&T SIM card, and try putting it into your phone to see if you can get 3G. If it's a very old SIM card, consider asking for a new one.

Also, double check underneath the battery. Does it say A6366 or A6380?
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vicmora5:
It was already set to "WCDMA preferred" I changed it and changed it back and I'm still only able to receive E and under the battery is says, A6366

[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vicmora5:
Hmm, I'd have to look most of my friends are on Verizon and the ones on AT&T don't have data plans l:

Most likely I'm just going to have to go in to AT&T and no I have never gotten a 3G connection.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
Sounds like a defect in the phone to me. If I were you, I'd probably re-install the factory default RUU. (Make sure you use the 2.1 one, NOT the 2.2 one. As long as you use the 2.1 one, you will still be able to root the phone again.) If you want to retain your current settings you can take a nandroid backup. After rerooting the phone you can restore it.

If 3G still doesn't work, get it exchanged. Was this a recently purchased phone?
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vicmora5:
Ok before all that, I just restored the nandroid ,from before when I was told to backup then wipe to see if I'd pick up the 3G, and after it boots up it just starts bringing up force closes of apps continuously... I can't do anything but force close the stuff that pops up.. (it seems to be all the apps that I had pre wipe that are causing the problems... I can't use my preferred launcher or even the keyboard [smart keyboard pro] that I had set, gmail doesnt seem to be working either)

Also this phone is a couple months old, I got it for free because I stayed with AT&T after they acquired the local phone company. It's not a huge problem that I can't get 3G as I can access wifi most of the time, but me and a friend were looking at T-Mobile and saw a joint plan we liked but I knew I wouldn't be able to receive 3G with T-Mobile, I then remembered I had never even gotten 3G with AT&T
