Ohk so since we now have one more option in Xrecovery i am back to my old suggestion.

however this time i will post my thought out in open so that if someone has required skills and time then they can work on .

I have an idea of using xrecovery as a boot menu.

process would be

1) Xrecovery to start everytime. (this needs some consideration.)

2) To have a timeout value if any key pressed before that then remain in menu otherwise boot to the os.

3) inside menu we should have options of all O.S. / ROM (os coz my intention are to run linux off dualboot) available with selection options.

4) ON selection it will just be the same procedure as already using in xrecovery 1.0 to handover the command to a script. and let it load.

5) boot menu if possible could be controlled by an outside file which we can edit just like grub.conf in linux.

Note : This will requires good understanding of booting process of X10i and c skills as xrecovery is written in complete c.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
point no.1 is easy... not an issue..

abt point 2 i think that too would be possible... a while loop with sleep function & wait for input/keppress

pt3 the newer xrecovery v1.0.0 already has something similar may be we can look into it to add "Boot NAND system" as first option

point no. 5 if possible WILL BE BRILLIANT!!!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] royale192:
I wanted to ask if anyone has tried updating there firmware for their router, if so any luck with wifi? As for me I updated and opps now my router shuts down and restarts. I have a netgear wrn2000v1 in think and the whole router goes down, its done it atleast 2 time since I have been up. less than an hour. I dont think its the problem with the g2x wifi connection issue but since my router seems to be going titts up i will have to go and get a new one. I will post what happens. also going with a different brand and as i am typing this the router went down again.. :mad:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mias1:
I smashed my screen a couple of week ago. Dropped a heavy lamp onto it and the sharp top end went into the edge of the screen and shattered a large proportion of it (I'm not blaming the screen cos that would have broken any screen). Luckily bought cover for it and returned it for repairs, due back this week.

But here's the interesting part of the story. I was searching ebay for accessories and came across the following:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ASUS-TF101-16...=UK_iPad_Tablets_eReaders&hash=item1c1b55c6e9

THATS MY TRANSFORMER!!!!

So rung comet and they told me it is repaired and will be ready to pick up this week.

How do I know its mine? I took a picture of it before returning and the cracks across the screen are identical.

I can only assume comet are replacing it, even though they are claiming they repaired it.

In thier terms and conditions, if a product is replaced by a new one then the remainder of the warranty then becomes void (only covered for repairs). But they haven't said anything about it. Guess thats good for me, new transformer and keep warranty.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
Honestly, this sounds very worrying and maybe this is a suing job. Surely a company isn't allowed to sell your property. What if you had sensitive data on it for example? If you can prove it's yours as you say you can, it looks like an open and shut case to me.

If I were you I'd ask for a proper explanation from them and show them exactly what you are showing us.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] FrayAdjacent:
Warranty? Warrant doesn't cover dropping crap on it. Insurance would, but not warranty.

Lamp impact damage isn't a manufacturing defect. How the heck did you get the retailer to repair/replace it? Did you buy a replacement or service plan with it?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mias1:
Thats a good point. I was just excited about getting my transformer back.

But very true that i could have had sensitive information on it but thankfully factory reset it before giving it back (just in case something like this happened i guess).

Will take a picture in when I go to pick "my" transformer up and see what they got to say for themselves
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mias1:
my correction, it was a service plan i bought (insurance) I bought with it, about £109 for a year that covers accidental damage. And so glad I did
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mias1:
Bonus, I have the serial number of my Asus. Now this will be an interesting conversation when I go pick up my Asus and try to match up the the serial no.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dcmtnbkr:
I'm assuming you are in the UK. Not sure how things work there, but most insurance policies here say they can replace the device and it still takes away the warranty period. As long as they wipe the device, they can do whatever they want with it. Same thing as a return. ymmv, but i wouldnt expect any sort of compensation from a company that is holding up their end of the bargain (taking a broken tablet from you and giving you a non-broken tablet.)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mias1:
I'm more annoyed about the fact that if they were going to replace it why have they kept me away from my precious Asus for 3 weeks, they have (or someone) has had time to put it on ebay even.

Otherwise not to fussed with a replacement and I think your right that they prob have kept their end of the bargain. Will scrutinise the terms and conditions later.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AvRS:
You'll probably find what's happened is Comet have taken your tablet, the underwriter of the service plan has agreed to replace for a new device, the store then retains the device (insurance write-off) and a staff member asks to buy it for, lets say £50 for this argument which is then a 100% profit for the store due to it being writen-off. This is similar to how PC World worked when I was there during college/uni years and why you see clearance stock with bits missing/damage to them at reduced prices. Oh and staff get silly discounts off damaged products as they generally couldn't sell some stuff, we had people getting laptops for £50 or cheaper on the odd occassion.

However remember this could just be a coincidence lol
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sackofnoise:
Hi, didn't asus already had an accident happen warranty for this device? (seen this on a retailer website, it is for the netbook but it was put in bold: Accidents Happen

You have extra protection when they happen to your ASUS notebook purchased in the US or Canada. ASUS will fix it or replace it for you at no charge during the first year after purchase in the event of damage from accidental spills, drops, electrical surges, or fire.

Warranty covering accidental drops, spills, power surges, and fire damage

Target 3 business day turnaround time for repair / replacement; not including receiving and shipping time

One-way shipping (from ASUS to the user) at no additional cost

24/7 toll-free phone support

One incident covered per notebook

So not sure about it but usually asus have a pretty good warranty...

**EDIT: OOps, just seen it is only for us and canada... so uk may be different...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] iamdata:
i hope they havent actually sold off your tablet, thats a joke, tell them you want to be compensated for the trouble this has caused, you could have had sensitive data on the machine. And you know they are selling your one online. Maybe the person with the ebay account is a dodgy comet employee.

im gonna follow and see what happens, i wouldnt be happy waiting when there are about 4 different honeycomb tablets to pick from now, and they have kept you without your one. the xoom was meant to be the first, but i didnt get one, as this was out first, xoom got delayed and to be honest, why have you had to wait at all.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mias1:
I am dissappointed that I had to wait so long just to get a replacement, and hurts a little (i know its sad) to see my original transformer on ebay cos it was mine and i loved it.

But to be honest they have kept within their contract, which says if they can't fix it they will replace it. And repairs/replacements will take approx 3 weeks.

Nonetheless i will mention it when i go pick up my transformer on thursday and make a point of why I had to wait when they new they were going replace it atleast a week ago.

And just checked and it has been sold for £180
[LG Optimus 2x] sndaniele:
Hi guys.

I was wondering if changing roms and wipe often can be dangerous for our phone. I had an Htc Diamond 2 and i used to flash it often. I thought that, with the time, the system was more slow for this reason. What do you think? is it like the damage on hard disk when we formatting a pc?
[LG Optimus 2x] hellokittyr:
it's like pc.

i thought pentium 1 was fast too.

ROM is designed to read and write, so i dont think flashing often would shorten the life compare to normal usage.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
U might change phone before your internal storage dies on u. That's how solid it is.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Yeah it's like buying a memory stick and being scared to use it incase it breaks LOL

[HD2 General] IndigoHD:
It appears that my HD2 is having some problems with its USB-Port since a connection will only be established if the USB-cable is held in a weird angle.

My Phone has been kept very carefully and is otherwise in great condition.

I think this may be a problem with the usb-port inside and it still has warranty here in germany.

The problem is that i used Magldr to install Android through clockwork mod, is there a way to get back to Windows Mobile without using a usb cable?

Since i hardly think i could send it in with Android installed.
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
Chances are it is the port on your phone....They seem pretty prone to this problem after a while.......Im assuming you've tried a different cable/usb port right??

Good news is that yes, you can get back to WM without USB pretty easily.

You need to download the correct stock rom for your device.

Hit up HTC.com and enter your serial number to be absolutely certain.

Download the ROM and extract the .nbh file.

Rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and place it on the root of your SD card.

Power on the phone whilst holding the vol. down button.

It should boot to bootloader and take you through the flashing process...

Using a stock ROM will remove HSPL and whatever else... ta da.... factory perfect ;)
[HD2 General] IndigoHD:
Does that work even tho i have magldr?

EDIT: I have an O2 phone, not the normal firmware but one that was provider-specific, does that work, too?
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
Yeah, it should do.

MAGLDR runs in the chain after the "classic" 3 colour bootloader....

Try turning on the phone and holding vol down. You should get to the good old fashioned bootloader. If so, SD flash will work.

Hope that helps.
[HD2 General] sportman123:
Hey that was helpfull man,thanks for that!!!
[HD2 General] foney:
Out of curiosity, have you looked to see if the usb needs to be cleaned from dirt and lint?

A friends phone had the same problem, and would only work if held at a weird angle. I used a pin to carefully dig in the usb hole and a lot of lint and even dirt had crammed in there to stop the cable working.
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
just wanted to add something to this thread, correct me if i am wrong.

yes you can revert to a stock SPL+ROM+Radio using flash-via-sd-card method. so a functioning USB port is not necessary.

BUT! a fully functioning USB port IS necessary for flashing HSPL (which is the

first

step to unleashing yourself on all the wonderful fun possible on the HD2)

so if your USB port is faulty and you're thinking about claiming warranty, then be absolutely sure about the decision to "go stock" before you revert to stock using the flash-via-sd-card method. in case the USB repairs fail, you will be stuck with the stock SPL on there. in case you have to hold on to an HD2 which you reverted to stock but couldn't get the USB repaired, that could be a bummer if you've gotten used to HSPL and its benefits!
[Galaxy 3 General] dilzo:
Hey guys,

Basically I'm trying to do Data2Sd from lestatious 1.8 but whenever i try to "Move/Resize partition" it doesn't appear.

And I'm not sure what to do because I'm a bit scared it might destroy my sd card.

Btw its a Sandisk 2GB SDHC. Also I'm on lestatious 1.8 alpha 10.

EDIT: I forgot to plug my sd into my computer but now when i'm resizing i can't get the exact number its all ways 0.1 more or 0.1 less so if it was 500 it would be 500.1 or 499.9
[Galaxy 3 General] Bubble-be:
That's not really a problem, your software is adjusting to the fact that 1KB is not 1000 bytes, but 1024.

Make a backup of your SD just to be safe. If it doesn't resize like you want, you can always delete the partitions, create new ones and copy your backup over.
[Galaxy 3 General] dilzo:
Thanks but I can't type it in i have to move the little ball to resize :S

[Xperia Play General] PLARX:
Sorry i dont know
[Xperia Play General] axiomjunglist:
Verizon officially now acknowledges the Xperia Play, but don't get too happy. It's listed as coming soon, in an online catalog for Winter 2011.

That's a huge window of time... but at least VZ is now saying something.

http://engt.co/jy11sc
[Xperia Play General] BrownEye02:
I have checked every day for the past month with nothing. All of the news was on Rogers releasing the play. So hopefully now the only thing to focus on is Verizons release date.
[Xperia Play General] axiomjunglist:
Out of curiosity I dropped into my local Verizon store and found a duplicate paper copy of the same online catalog, "Your Guide" except it was marked Spring/Summer. It has the Xperia Play listed the same way, as "Coming Soon". Interestingly enough, the latest FCC entry showed a phone with both a CDMA radio and a SIM slot, so people thought it was either a global phone or LTE capable. The new publication pretty much proves it's capable of neither. It will be CDMA 3G only. That is, unless Verizon doesn't fact-check it's own phones before printing out thousands of these publications to put in-store. It will also come with an 8GB card. Seems pretty standard.

http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/9165/vzguide.jpg

They don't tell reps anything so of course he had no idea when it is coming or any details about it.

It could launch on the 12th of May, but the HTC Trophy is supposed to launch that day as well... according to rumors and speculation of course. There hasn't been anything pointing to release this week either.
[Xperia Play General] Tornlogic:
Cool, thanks for all the good info
[Xperia Play General] axiomjunglist:
Looks like the wait may be a bit longer. May 26th if all goes well, and that's not even a confirmed date by VZ themselves but someone on the inside that knows something.

I got tired of waiting and just bought an off contract model of the Rogers phone to use on AT&T. I'm sure I might regret that later but oh well. I already have AT&T so it's not a huge deal to me.
[Xperia Play General] Krislawl:
why does it take verizon about 2 months to release a phone after its been released in canada. and will an off contract rogers xperia play work with verizon?
[Xperia Play General] BrownEye02:
My guess is they are still waiting for Sony to release another update to make it a little more stable or Verizon doesn't want six phones coming out at once. My guess is the update is whats holding them back. I remember with my blackberry storm we ended up waiting 2 more months before we got the update that would make our phones usable. All because Verizon didn't approve of it.
[Xperia Play General] axiomjunglist:
I bet it's also partly because your average techie still doesn't understand that Sony Ericsson and Sony are two different business entities, and the US sure is in Sony hating mode right now over the PSN compromise. I'm sure VZ doesn't want to launch a phone that won't be successful out the door, despite the fact that the Play doesn't even use the PSN network.

[Xperia Play General] BrownEye02:
Hmmmm that's weird. I know a Rogers phone wont work for Verizon because Verizon is only cdma and what ever the 4g network is. And the only play phones out now only support GSM. Bell must support both cdma and GSM. That's my guess.

Does anyone know if the transformer only takes specific ePub files? I loaded a bunch of them on there but when I try to open some of them the myLibrary exits (no FC just exits).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuntdouble:
I had this problem too. The only way I found to solve it was to remove all ebooks, clear the cache for the app in system settings>applications>manage applications and add a few at a time. It turned out one file was corrupted, and that was causing it to just close, not FC. No idea why it can't just stay open and ignore that file, but it doesn't seem to be able to. Other than that it seems to load all other epubs/pdfs so I dont think different versions matter.

I'm liking how quick things are going with this phone (already rooted and the bootloader is unlocked).

So, anyone attempting to port HTC sense 2.1 (or even 3.0 once the port to the WVGA-based DHD/HD2 phones is complete). touchwhiz4 is a nice improvement over the old one but let’s face it, it does not have a chance competing against the stuff HTC is making with Sense.

the ROM community development for the first S was a bit disappointing and am hoping things are much better this time round.
