guys i know your pissed but keep it civil in here or the mods will lock this thread. theres nothing we can do about this, just get a different phone.
[EVO 4G General] mbaseball3:
No such thing as locked down. Especially with our devs ;)

[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
no one will find their way through the bootloader or it would of happened already on other devices. i don't know how many times we need to tell you guys this. it's a done deal.
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
our devs will not be able to bypass the encryption. i swear it's like talking to a brick wall.

look no ones telling you not to buy the phone...just don't expect development, cm7, custom roms or kernels to happen. personally i think google may of pushed htc to do this.

[HTC Inspire 4G] tcallahan:
Hello,

First post in inspire section... I have a inspire 4G in my possession that I am rooting etc for a friend. I flashed Kingdom 1.0 w. Sense 3.0 to the phone and its awesome but still a little to stock for my liking. Just wanna change up the look a little. Anyhow my question is... In this section: Inspire 4G Themes and Apps I'm not seeing any themes to flash to the phone but I do see people referencing flashing Desire HD themes to this phone... In general is it okay to do? Will most Desire HD themes work on the Inspire 4G?

Any feedback would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

- tcallahan :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nickovtyme:
I'm not sure about the Desire HD themes...but if you like the Sense look...here's some Custom Sense Skins and looks.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Trevorhimself:
good news and bad news....the good is that the DHD themes will work fine on the Inspire, as will the ROMs with audio fix. The bad is that Kingdom ROMs don't play nice with most sense 2.1 themes and mods....actually all that I have tried resulted negative with Kingdom. For this reason I've been sticking with Sense 2.1 + 3.0 based ROMs, I haven't had any issues with themes and mods.

Rooted with attn1's hack kit

another ROM another day

You can only use themes designed for the kingdom then, just go to the discussion thread it has the list of mods/themes there.

I want more skins though!

Like the default slate theme from sense 2+
[HTC Inspire 4G] PeartFan40:
If you're looking for eye candy, download and flash CoreDroid v6.6...it's a beautiful looking ROM with great eye candy and animations. It's fast and stable, with a TON of add-on options. You'll def find it much better looking than typical custom ROMS, and anything but stock looking. (I mean no disrespect to the other developers).

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T39andcounting:
Can anyone point me towards instructions on how to take a dump of the stock ROM from my Orange UK Atrix? I'd like to make a backup before I load a custom rom. And once I've created a dump, and how do I turn that into and SBF file?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjjensen23:
You cannot currently dump and sign your own sbf
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T39andcounting:
So is there no way of doing a dump, and then using it to restore to stock if there's a problem with a one of the updated ROMS? Is there any other way to switch back?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChongoDroid:
What are ya new :P
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rubb:
I got the same problem. I´m trying to install GingerBlur but I wanted to know what should I do to go back to stock if something goes wrong.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Careca_RS:
Yeap, make us two. I tried to manage a different rom in my Sony Xperia X10 and totally screwed the phone, it doesn't even turn on yet =/

I'm looking forward to install other rom (most possibly GingerBlur) in my Atrix, I've buyed it branded, wanna de-brand it. Hate those 'Claro' stuff =D
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maheidem:
So far there has not been any SBF's for the brazillian atrix...

That's a bummer, i really wanted to experiment, but if I can't go back to the original, it's kind of a deal breaker for me...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rubb:
Can´t u go with the 1.8.3?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maheidem:
That's the SBF from telstra right!?

I've downloaded it and want to flash it, but, not having a way back kind of freaks me out...

With my late Milestone, there were all sorts of sbf's avaible...

How do i know that the tellus sbf is more up to date them my brazillian one?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjjensen23:
Read the guide in the dev forum. Only at&t phones can have at&t sbf's. All the other phones can share sbfs AFAIK. therefore brazil atrix cannot get 1.8.3 as its for at&t. These are the risks in modifying locked down devices
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rubb:
But even if he has a brazilian atrix, he can flash back to a original AT&T sbf right?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2whisper:
No i believe his options are the telstra and France sbf's.

It good ... not on the level of the Evo development community but hopefully some more Devs get the SGSII instead of jumping ship from sprint..
[HTC EVO 3D] fixxxer2008:
you cannot unlock an encrypted bootloader or it would of been done already. i don't know what it's going to take to get it through some of your heads. :rolleyes:

WTF, the phone has been out A LOT longer than 2 weeks. They have been developing on it since it originally came out LONG TIME AGO. Whats your point?

[HTC EVO 3D] xoreactionzox:
Can the xtc clip not even unlock it because its suppose to unlock all bootloaders and devices up to date ?
[HTC EVO 3D] PatG1:
There's a difference between locked and encrypted. The Evo3D bootloader is encrypted. Which requires cracking a 256 bit AES key. Anyone work for the NSA?
[HTC EVO 3D] xoreactionzox:
Can the xtc cip get the job done
[HTC EVO 3D] PatG1:
I'm not an expert on cracking devices, but I doubt it considering that is for unlocking, not decryption. Basically the device upon boot runs a checksum to see if the signatures match. Now, we can't get to the signatures because they are encrypted. Once again, I'm not an expert on unlocking devices. Definitely not a developer. I just know how encryption works.
[Droid 2 General] qipengart:
I played around with the Droid 2 Global at the store and ended up ordering a Droid 2 (original) from eBay to upgrade from my somewhat sluggish Droid 1. I noticed a few things.

1) Better keyboard... larger keys are helpful here.

2) Better and firmer sliding mechanism. I get a lot less wobble on the Droid 2 than the first one

3) Brighter screen. I don't know whether they improved the LCD par se but I suspect that it's the same Super LCD of the Droid X that I use once awhile.

Any other improvements over the original?

Only negative is the locked bootloader. Hopefully Droid 3 corrects that.
[Droid 2 General] aaricchavez:
Motorola has said that they are going to keep their bootloaders locked. So, for me personally i'm going to try and stay away from Motorola phones/tablets in the future.

And as for upgrades from the Droid 1, the upgrades are basically the things you stated, plus the obvious, CPU, Ram etc.
[Droid 2 General] qipengart:
Sounds good then. I just received my Droid 2 and loving it much better than the first one. Very happy guy here.
[Droid 2 General] shahm0nsterr:
They use the same battery, so you can keep it and always have a spare!

Check out the fission rom if you miss having vanilla android.

It is much snappier than the stock rom the d2 comes with.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CBETKATA:
I have this problem with my Hero for a couple of months already. My lowest part of the screen doesn't react - basically you must press at least 10 times on "Phone" to get it started, and with the the first row of icons, let's say Gmail, it's the same. Also, the home-screen is flipping left and right whenever it wants and however it wants, basically it means that when I leave the phone with it's home-screen unlocked, it starts scrolling back and forth by itself. I sent the phone 3 times to the operator's service, and every time they are replacing the screen unit with a new one. Then it behaves OK for 3-4 days and then it starts again! Has anyone had the same problem too? Is there any software bug fix?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k0zmic:
It's a know issue with Hero screens. The glue between the digitzer and screen heats up so they become loose and unresponsive.

It's a hardware issue, send to your operator or you can fix it yourself. Instructions are on this forum somewhere.

well it started randomly the other day thinking it might be something I have done flashing a rom through odin I re flashed it it was KD1 and it still persisted so last night i tried flashing KC1 and it is still doing this, every time i make or receive a call it always uses the speaker phone the speaker phone button isn't even lighted up and when I try to toggle the speakerphone button it still does nothing any help would be much appreciated because its starting to get annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
by any chance are you using wifi-calling? If so, its because of the Kernel. People are reporting there are some issues with wifi calling, bluetooth dialing and some other items. If this is the case, then its probably best to check the threads that host the mods you used to answer questions like this. If not, I would start with flashing the original kernel back.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DirtyPISTOLA:
as a matter of fact yes i did load the kernal each time, i was on wifi calling but it also happened when on the network as well, so i guess ill try flashing back the og kernal and see what happens thank you and hopefully if that is the problem it gets fixed because i was getting awesome battery life with the bali kernal, again thanks.

1. Does sombebody know how to pass this ?

2. Is there an issue on encryption ?

Please help. Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pastey:
Is it your exchange server or is it a work one?. The admins of the servers need to either enable or disable Android device syncing.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tijacob:
I haven't been able to get device encryption to work. I have seen several inquiries related to the same thing where you full charge and then when you begin to encrypt it never proceeds. I attempted to encrypt both factory and rooted neither of which completed even after prolonged runtimes of 12 to 24 hours. My non-encrypted device experience has not been enjoyable. My corporate mail will sync to the point (encrypted or not) and then die off after the last day that I had encrypted Xoom.

As for Exchange configuration just need to update the EAS policy. In the policy I also found that needed to select "Allow infrared". Exchange EAS policy is very simple to setup and should not be complicated unless corporate politics come into play. If personal Exchange then you make your own rules.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heba:
So you see it as an issue with encryption,right? And it is not related to device but Honeycomb.

Unfortunately is it corporate mail,so I have to check with admin about security rules.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Phytrax:
I just got this case from eBay for around $5 USD and I am so impressed with it I had to write a quick review. I think the name brand is Fusion.

-The fit of the case is just perfect. Very snug.

-The thickness is just enough to protect the camera lens and screen without adding much bulk.

-The sides of the case have a nice texture to make it very easy to grip.

-The TPU material doesn't attract lint and is very easy to slide in and out of your pocket.

-All of the holes match up fine.

-The buttons on the sides of the phone are covered but in my opinion this makes the pressure required just right so you don't accidentally press them.

The only negative at all is that the hole for the headphone jack may be too small for some plugs. The Samsung headphones and my Bose headphones fit just fine though. (Update: My Bose speakers I had to trim a little plastic off of the audio cable but it fits fine now.)

Here is the eBay link if anybody wants one. This guy shipped one to me in 2 days in the US.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Deleted member 2842059:
Do they make them in matte black?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] 3waygeek:
I ordered a similar one from eBay on the 14th, and it arrived today. Fits pretty well and leaves a bit of a bumper around the display, adding a bit of protection.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Phytrax:
I believe I saw a matte black on Dealextreme. Most of the black ones I've seen are part matte, part glossy.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] DocSoton:
Hard to tell from the image, but isnt that simply a hole in the case where they camera lense is, so offers no protection for the lens at all??

Its an impossible task trying to find a case that offers protection for the camera.. they are so hi spec and good quality these days, the last thing you want is muck or scratches on the optics.. surely a case designer can be innovative enough to design some sort of sliding cover....
[Galaxy S II Accessories] arjun90:
I purchased the Black one as well. However, the glossy part scratches too easily. Handle with care. :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Artius89:
Well i've both the TPU case (but it's all black) and the Samsung case:

http://www.happybirthdaytoyou.com/bmcdigital/SS-I9100-VENT-BLK-1.jpg

I've tryed both, and i really prefer the samsung one, the tpu case attracts way too much dust, while the samsung case it's a lot easier to clean. The dust on the tpu case pile up on the sides, and from there it's a hell to remove it.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] poofish:
It's true, that was my experience with this TPU case as well. Dust would pile up on the edges of the screen and under the TPU lining. I'd have to constantly take off the TPU case and wipe the screen to keep my SGS2 nice and pretty. With the official Samsung vent case i can simply wipe the screen clean in one go without taking off the case. Sure, the official case offers less protection, but it also preserves the form and weight of the phone quite well, whereas the TPU case adds significant weight and thickness to the phone in comparison.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] anfearg:
I just got a few of these delivered from buyaccess. Delivered in a week and they fit like a glove. Nice ridge around the screen so it won't scratch if you put it face down and extra grip on the sides.

[Xperia Play General] The_Newtype:
I will be receiving a Play from someone who received the device at the Google I/O conference, and it is confirmed that it is the R800a variant. I would assume that it's unlocked and unbranded, so I was curious if anyone who has one can share if they've received any SW updates for the phone. Will the phone receive the same updates as the other variants being offered around the world?

Also, the phone hasn't officially been offered here in the states outside of Verizon, so, has anyone with this phone been able to connect to the store to purchase games and the like (PS1 titles, etc)?

Thanks-
[Xperia Play General] Frizzal:
i have a white r800a and i was able to update soon as i open the box. also i am using tmobile service on mine
[Xperia Play General] The_Newtype:
Thanks for the input. Any trouble accessing the store or the like?
[Xperia Play General] axiomjunglist:
I've had my white unlocked/unbranded R800a since May 9th (pre-Google I/O dev freebie) and no problems accessing the Android Market or using the Xperia Play launcher app to get new market games. The one thing not working is the search function in the PlayStation Pocket app. Crash Bandicoot is in there, but when I click search it says "This service is not available in your country/region.". I haven't even honestly used it until today to check since I primarily use emulators.

I'm on AT&T.

So far I'm on 2.3.2 but I'm not sure how many people have 2.3.3 yet. Gingerbreak does work great though :)
[Xperia Play General] emann56:
Hmmm Weird I always had 2.3.3 but I never had the facebook thing.
[Xperia Play General] The_Newtype:
Yeah, it seems like R800As can't access the market to buy more PS1 titles, and I'm also on 2.3.2...

I use Snes9x, but what other emulators would you recommend that are free and work well?

Also (hang with me as this is my first Android device), what are the best, free, file manager, battery indicator, and RAM monitor?

Thanks!
[Xperia Play General] MechaBouncer:
I've got one of these too. It's Android 2.3.2 and both OTA and PC Companion say it's up to date. I can access the Market, but PSOne titles aren't on there. I tried looking at the Android Market website and found some of the games, but they all say "Europe Limited" on them. Is it possible it might be that Sony hasn't gotten around to making them available in other regions yet?
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
"Yeah, it seems like R800As can't access the market to buy more PS1 titles, and I'm also on 2.3.2..."

Mine can. I live in Canada but I still haven't seen an update yet. Still on 2.3.2 :(

I have the pocket app and it has about 5 PSX titles. I picked up Medievil, good game!
[Xperia Play General] MechaBouncer:
Well it sounds like it works in Canada, then. I'm in the United States and clicked the search button in the PlayStation Pocket app and it told me "This service is not available in your country/region." I'm curious if the Verizon R800x version says the same thing?
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
It's so stupid how they are making so many versions of this phone and the FW.

I watched a Youtube review and the guy said there was to processors, one for the phone and one for the games. He also said the camera had a smile detection feature. Is this guy BS or did he have a pre release one that was different?
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
Well there are not that great anyway. Maybe they will give you access when there are better games on there. You’re not missing much. Cool boarders 2, MediEvil, Rally Cross, syphon Filter and wild Arms. Also Backstab HD shows up in my pocket app.

It is the only Gameloft game that does. Also most gameloft games I have purchased do not even show in my playstaion xperia app.

It seems they have bugs to work out for sure.
