[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] kmetzelaar:
I had success getting Netflix to work on Viewsonic G-Tablet running CM 7.0.3.

I used the instructions posted by natemckn at reddit. As a noob, I'm not able to post links to the XDA forum (yet), so you'll need to search for the instructions on reddit or google. The post is titled "[ROOT] How to edit your build.prop to make Netflix work on unsupported devices."

Specifically, I modified these two lines in build.prop:

ro.product.model=HTC Vision

ro.product.manufacturer=HTC

Also, I moved NetFlix to my external SD card.

Rebooted, everything works like a champ.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beerdaddy:
Hi,

Just a quick one and any responses from personal experiance would be great.

Has anyone used an app to re-calibrate the battery? If so did it help or did it seem to make the battery life worse?

I had a major drain on my battery so did a complete reinstall of tweaky ROM and the drain has stopped. Just wondering if I should bother to recalibrate

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marrrek:
Calibration did not help me, I have the same stamina... JVH + Criskelo v56 + CF-Root 3.2
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arielo1:
from those many many times i have tried to do calibration in all possible ways that has being suggested even waiting a few days for the cycle to end...

my conclusion its bull**** it depends on the rom or apps that are running ....

the only thing it does it shows u 100% when u finish charging in case u dont see it already.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Does it work or does waiting two weeks for battery to settle down work .

jje
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kops:
My findings are similar to JJE. After flashing a ROM, it will take 4-5 charge cycles (just charging every night, nothing special....may run down to 0% after first charge) before I see a stable, decent battery life.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlockhart:
Ditto, I try not to judge a ROMs battery appetite until about a week, espescially if I was to lazy to flash at 100%.. But I think that is what is meant by battery calibration..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beerdaddy:
Ok thanks guys, think I'll wipe battery stats next time I flash a new ROM 100% battery
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Dr.Gonz0:
That's how it can be described, I apologize in advance for the somewhat repeat of the thread (posted over in the Touch Pro 2 CDMA hood) because my TP2 is the verizon version. BUT it's GSM unlocked and I am running with Simple Mobile. I have no problem inputting the settings for the connection... their website has all the info right there. I reboot and everything seems fine and dandy or so I think.

I can send 50% of the time, and receiving I can do only once. Meaning I can receive one MMS and I have that issue where the picture is small. Anything after that gives me an error saying "bad gateway" and then I think I hear it laughing at me. It doesn't matter which ROM I am using. Energy, Blackout, try cooking my own, the stock VZW one... I only use the CDMA ROMS given the phone is CDMA.

Only posting over here due to the fact I am rolling with a GSM carrier. Hence a trainwreck.

Just came to mind, is it possible to experiment with the T-Mobile Touch Pro 2 stock Arcsoft MMS, would need a link to it. Been searching high and low but no luck. Any info to help resolve this issue would be awesome.

I appreciate XDA and all here, this place ROCKS!

[EVO 4G General] tjleeland:
I really hate these MegaCrap mirrors. So I thought I'd offer to mirror some EVO roms. Perhaps someone can give me an idea of how much bandwidth we'd be talking about per rom?

I have a hosting account with Bluehost with "unlimited" bandwidth and diskspace, though I've never tested them to see what their idea of what unlimited means. I'd be willing to provide mirror space, so long as we're not talking about several terabytes of bandwidth for each rom. The TOS requires that any downloaded files have a link on a webpage hosted on the server, but that should be easy to do.

I think I'd like to limit this to a couple of roms to start with, but PM me if you'd like to be the first to try it out. The files would be stored at http://roms.renoiphone.com, which is a tad ironic, but I have other domains as well if the irony is too much for you.
[EVO 4G General] klept0:
I have started doing this for some of our dev's here...alone on a few leaks and some WIP ports I have seen a total of 380GB of xfr since 5/1/11. - last month I started doing this for them on the 13th and it was well over 500GB of xfr. Just a heads up from what I have seen...and like he said..I am willing to host roms as well if he isnt available
[EVO 4G General] tjleeland:
Thanks for information. That's not too bad. I should be able to host a few and see if bluehost squawks about it. I should hope not.
[EVO 4G General] Rem3Dy:
Koush of rom manager and clockworkmod fame has free hosting for rom devs.
[EVO 4G General] Ryjabo:
File sharing/storage is against their TOS, fyi.

Don't host anything popular... too many http connections and they'll shut you down. And it's going to be hella slow transfer rates (they don't make any guarantees about speed) that will be killed at about 10 minutes if the file isn't downloaded fast enough.

You're better off getting setup with someone like http://www.mediafire.com/

Just sayin' ;)

EDIT: Check this out: http://www.dreamhost.com/unlimited.html -- Bluehost has almost an identical stance on everything, they just don't have a nice little article like that on their website; it's buried in their TOS.
[EVO 4G General] klept0:
Ryjabo that was a great explanation...even more amusing as I work for a webhosting company and we were just talking about the "unlimited" thing yesterday.
[EVO 4G General] tjleeland:
If so, then why do so many developers use these ****ty file sharing services like megaupload? The one I really hate is whichever only allows you to download something like three files a day.
[EVO 4G General] tjleeland:
Actually, I'm fairly sure you're wrong. I read the ToS before signing up, and I just read it again. The only prohibition is on using the space as online backup:

Backup Storage. Bluehost.com offers its Services to host web sites, not to store data. Using an account as an online storage space for archiving electronic files is prohibited and will result in termination of hosting services without prior notice.​

Of course, you can't "overuse" the service (whatever that means), nor can you post porn, copyrighted material, engage in illegal activities, etc. But if you can find anything that says file sharing is against their ToS, you have a better eye than I do.

Also, my wife has her own Bluehost account that used to host a four-hour podcast every week. Even when it was the number one video gaming podcast in the UK, and hosting her files for iTunes download, we never had speed or throttle issues over the course of more than a year. Again, not 600 KB/sec, but...

I guess it depends you what you call "too popular" or "too many connections." I'm not saying you're wrong that this amount of traffic would cause them to throttle, but I am saying that they're not as bad as you're making them out to be.
[EVO 4G General] Ryjabo:
That makes two of us.
[EVO 4G General] Ryjabo:
The space they offer for web hosting is for exactly that: hosting a website. Take up too much space for anything outside of that and they can shut you off.

To be quite honest, I doubt enough people are going to use your mirrors (no offense) to cause any problems for you. I just thought, as someone who has had personal experience with these issues & Bluehost, I should let you know.
[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
I have been shut down by unlimited web hosts for just this reason. The reality is that you need a dedicated server which is at least $100 a month. You might fly under the radar for a while, but in the end they will shut you down.
[EVO 4G General] Rem3Dy:
Host your roms here! Its free and automatically integrates with rom manager. http://t.co/dGRJdMG
[EVO 4G General] ffolkes:
The applicable term to this thread would be "overselling" lol. In the world of hosting there are really three tiers of usertypes. The first is a multimillion/billion dollar company who builds, maintains, upkeeps, etc a huge, usually state-of-the-art building with security, advanced fire suppression systems and electric generator backups. The second kind of user is the much smaller company who leases rack space or sq footage from the building owner so they can keep servers there. They are subject to, and in turn, enforce a strict bandwidth policy. Then the third kind is the guy who leases servers on an individual basis, and finds customers who need to host a website. He can play god with his customers, so long they don't exceed the limits of the guy he's leasing it from.

Hosts (tier 3 in my little example above) know a very, very small percentage of their customers will ever meet the restrictions on their arbitrarily defined packages, so they (often times grossly) oversell a server. Imagine you buy a hosting package that includes 100 GB of monthly bandwidth. Now imagine 200 other people buy it. The box itself has a 2,000 GB monthly hard limit. How is that host able to allow 20,000 GB on a 2,000 GB server!? It's not magic. :P They know most users will only use, say, between 100 MB and 1 GB of what they paid for. So they sold 20,000 GB of bandwidth but will only actually use well under 2,000. This formula will work into infinity...so hosts cut to the chase and flat out offer unlimited hosting. Until someone comes along who actually *uses* the undefined and vague bandwidth they think they're paying for. Then they get the boot. The old "too good to be true" syndrome. It's just marketing.

This works the same way for storage space, too.

But to be fair, sometimes hosts can be extremely lenient, especially if you're on a vacant server. They've already paid for the bandwidth, someone might as well use it. But as more and more accounts on that server are added and vie for the limited amount of resources allotted to it that month, eventually you'll get squeezed out of the pool.

Anyway, you can get a lot cheaper than that if you get a VPS, and many actual boxes are well under $100/mo if you want something low-powered. Serving files isn't as resource intensive as something like massive database queries, so no fancy multicore systems are needed. When you look at the lowest end boxes, you'll see quite a few come with unmetered 10Mbps. However that usually does bump you above $100/mo if you're going the route of unmetered. You can calculate 10Mpbs(24*7*30) to get an actual figure of bandwidth available that month, but since you can never exceed it, it's easier to just think "as much data as it possibly can serve" while download speeds get more and more diluted.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcjpth:
Hi guys,

I'm using TNT 4.4, good, rock, solid and stable. (this I means full market registration) It lets me push the app from the Market so I don't have to browse the market from my Gtablet. TNT 4.4 registered it correctly under Maker Malata, Model GTablet TNT Lite..etc

Can anyone of you please let me know which other ROMs register the tablet properly in the Full Market? I remember Vegan ROM can register my tablet properly so it showed in my Market Account Setting the model name, maker...etc

I remembered Cynog or Harmony 7 something, and it never registed in the My Market Account correctly eventhough the App download, search are OK but...

thx,

There is a thread that tells you how to edit your build.prop file to fool it into thinking your tab is an HTC vision, thereby getting the market and netflix working.

A full market does not depend on a rom but on the way the tablet is described in build.prop.

[Continuum General] TraMaI:
I never had a problem with my FB account not coming through. My RSS feeds did die though. If it's THAT important to you, root your phone and get titanium backup Pro and do a full backup of all of your apps. Once that's done, do a factory data reset (think it's in privacy for some stupid reason). I just reset mine the other day (after a failed attempt at flashing to SC lol) and mine works great now :)

Hi All,

I'm trying to unroot my evo and can't... I do NOT remember what unrevoke method I used for it, its been 8 months... I've tried the many different tutorials posted online, which has been complete epic fail.

The Specs:

SUPERSONIC EVT2-3 SHIP S-ON

ClockwordMod Recovery v2.5.0.7

I've been able to turn S-ON but whenever I try to flash the PC36IMG, it gives me the error "main version is older". After that failure, I tried the method of installing HTC Sync and running running "RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.70.651.1_Radio_2.15.00.11.19_NV_1.90_release_161482_signed" which started though failed half way in with a communication error.

What the hell am I doing wrong here guys? I need to get this in the mail to send back to Asurion tomorrow, so i'm offering a $5.00 paypal bounty to the first person that can help me out and get me back to a stock rom. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cobirch2:
asurion could not possibly care less that your phone is rooted. You dont even have to send them a phone back, you can just report it lost, but you dont have to cuz they wont care. So you dont really need to worry.

Basically your getting the "main version is older" error because of your bootloader. HTC/google wont let you flash older versions of certain image files, its another stumbling block to make gaining root harder. I havent had this problem in a while, but it definitely started when you flashed s-on.

The solution is going to involve fastboot. I believe your going to have to flash an engineering bootloader, maybe a new misc partition. I took a quick look for solutions but theyre all for rooting, not unrooting. I cant tell you exactly what is wrong, but for future reference just run an RUU while you have s-off. It will save a lot of complications.

But really, why go through that trouble? Asurion wont care that your phone is rooted.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cobirch2:
So you need to either flash a PC36IMG.zip that is the same version or newer than your current ROM, or flash mtd-eng.img to the misc partition.

the newest pc36img should be here:

as for toasts mtd-eng.img, that should be easy enough for you to find.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seandeezy:
I've been having trouble unrooting my evo due to outdated PC36IMG.zip files. Every time I've tried a new one, it won't complete the flash, it says abort.

[Desire General] undercover:
Don't bother unless you want cheap/crappy effects. Best thing you can do is to set up you desire camera properly. Just play with the sharpness, contrast etc settings. And for effects use something like pic pro or photoshop express.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10649252&postcount=3

My old post with setting. Fair bit of noise, but that's because lighting is far from adequate for desires sensor. You get nice and vivid colours in day time. Only thing, sharpness has to be +1, +2 is a bit too much.

I just pushed my lens cover out completely. Get a little bit of dust, but nothing that can't be sorted out with a good blow and wipe. ;)
[Desire General] fl3rry:

[Desire General] rutgerhoorn:
I use Camera360 and Vignette, both for pretty nice effects. I rarely use the stock camera, because even with the right settings (posted above) pictures still look a bit crappy to me.
[Desire General] Klewe:
I tried nearly all of the camera apps out of the market. The best one in my opinion is "Camera Advance". It has a user interface and settings like you find on the compact digital cameras and makes better pics than the stock one. It has a good autofocus function and a great preview after taking a picture.
