Really? This will work? I can just restore back to factory settings, re fill out my google account, then go from there?

Why don't people do this then, doesn't the SBF and rooting and all that stuff wipe your phone anyways?
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
And that will just get rid of his data an he still won't be able to root. Op you have to SBF in order to root
[Droid X General] openbox9:
Odd, never had a problem here. What's the error? Alternatives are Parellels and VMware. You can always succumb to the pressure of Windows and use Boot Camp if you don't like the idea of using a VM. Personally, I don't like the idea of Boot Camp, but to each their own.
[Droid X General] djsupersoak:
Ok. I thought it would factory reset to 2.2 if that was the state he purchased the phone in.

In any case. After you get it to 2.2, root it using a one-click root such as z4root then install the TBH/p3 Gingerbread.
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
Factory reset is the same as wiping data in cwm
[Droid X General] embeem:
All very amusing considering there's no reason to load a linux vm; sbf_flash will run on a mac.
[Droid X General] mdemps9190:
If SOMEONE could give me step by step instructions on how to do this sbf flash on my mac then (OR UBUNTU) then that would be helpful. Everything is vague and I'm not going to try and figure this out on my own then brick my new droid x.
[Droid X General] dplace:
As a Mac Genius ;-) I recommend just using the Mac without any emulator. sbf_flash works flawlessly running in native Mac, Just follow the instructions for Linux by making the script executable and then running with sudo command.
[Droid X General] embeem:
Let's see ...

go find an sbf file; these aren't normally distributed to customers, you may have to search.

download sbf_flash

open a terminal and navigate to the directory where you've downloaded the above two files.

run "chmod +x sbf_flash" to set the program as executable

run "./sbf_flash filename.sbf" using the correct filename to start the reflash process.

connect the phone and perform whatever steps are required to boot the phone into the bootloader. (usually powering on while holding a key combo)

I'll leave it to someone else to spell out each one of those steps in agonizing detail. It's the exact same regardless of linux or mac.

Worst case is your battery dies in the middle of reflashing, and you're forced to buy an external charger to recharge the battery so you can restart the reflash.
[Droid X General] mdemps9190:
How do I navigate to the folder in terminal?
[Droid X General] mav3rick478:
cd is the change directory command in unix/terminal. I say put everything you need on the desktop that way its easy to navigate to it. If you google the DoRoot sequence you can follow those steps to navigate to your file, something like cd yourmacusername/desktop/filename if i remember correctly and then execute the file.
[Droid X General] openbox9:
Good to know. I already had an Ubuntu VM configured so I never bothered trying sbf_flash in OS X. Thanks for the tip.

FWIW, a virtual machine isn't an emulator :p

Hey everyone, I was hoping to get some direction about this. I currently go to Penn State and my major is IST but I'm not really sure this is really what I need to be going to school for. I really don't enjoy the general education stuff, I'd rather just dive right in to programming and design classes. I was taking a look on HTCs career site and I found my perfect job :D

http://www.htc.com/us/about/careers/developer-engagement-specialist-htc-developer-program/177

Granted, there are no crazy qualifications for that but if I looked for something a little bit more intense like...

http://www.htc.com/us/about/careers/software-quality-assurance-engineer/211

All the things that are bolded, where would one go about getting a degree for the mobile industry? I worked for a few carriers in the past and I know the theory of GSM and CDMA networks, so is this stuff just on the job training? I don't know anything about the test equiptment listed, but I know QXDM fairly well.

The only thing I have really seen is Pace University with their NACTEL program...

http://support.csis.pace.edu/nactel/

I really want to work in the wireless industry and make a career of it, more so on the technical side of things like programming and design. I just have no idea where else I could look for a telecommunications degree that is focused on the mobile industry. Does anyone have any suggestions or places to look into? Pace didn't seem to be too highly regarded, but those reviews weren't too recent. Any info on this would be really helpful! Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] VaderChen:
Hey all,

I am in Taiwan, and I got an update about Google Music beta last night.

Cause I had slept, so I did not test it yet.

I will report the states after trying it.

Hope this update can solve some issues in 3.1.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] VaderChen:
Sigh ... still hold the same issues ...

Wait for next update
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Shawn_230:
It won't install for me. I can see the update but when I click to update it doesn't do anything.

I guessed it was because I'm not in the US and the Music Beta is for US only, but now I see you're in Taiwan and installed it fine.

So did you do anything special to get it to work?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] czm:
I was having the same issue - could see the update but it just flashed "allowing access" then did nothing. But suddenly today it updated - I'm in UK
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Shawn_230:
Thanks, I suppose I'll keep trying.

Anything new or interesting other than the cloud service stuff?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ape1720:
I'm in the UK, received a Music Beta invite on Monday, currently uploading music to Google. Working fine. Sideloaded Music which says its version 3.0 to my DHD as the TF was sent back and awaiting a new one.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] czm:
I don't see anything about the cloud beta (I don't have an invite) - can't see anything new in in the app
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Shawn_230:
Yeah, I just managed to run the update and nothing seems changed.

I was mistaken and the update has nothing to do with the Music Beta, I guess the big banner up top in the Market threw me off.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wackadroid:
IM HAVING MAJOR ISSUES WITH MUSIC BETA AND MUSIC APP 3.01!! Is anyone else seeing the following?

I have the most updated music app on both my TF and Nexus S 4g and they both experience the same problem. When I am playing music from both online and offline music (shuffling all lets say) it will play a few songs fine and then it gets completely hung up and wont respond to any input. The app will not reset even if i kill the music app, when i go to reopen music it takes to a black screen with nothing on it. Its very weird and very annoying when a tab and phone cant do something as simple as playing a song. In order to fix it I have to turn the phone or tab off completely and then turn it on and it plays some songs then eventually gets hung up. Again, this is happening on my gingerbread 2.3.4 device and my honeycomb 3.1 device.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rio911:
I can also see the update Music by Google Inc, but it does not install. It says V3.0.1 from 26th May 2011! :confused:

Any suggestions how to I get it updated?

rio

PS: I'm in UK
[Eee Pad Transformer General] VaderChen:
At first, I had same problem as yours.

But after 3 hrs later, the Update is working for me.

I didn't know what happened but mostly is the market's issue ( I guess).

Any way, this update changed not thing.

And I still use PowerAMP to play music. But the UI is designed for 800x480.

So I wish the Music Beta can fix those issues quickly ...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mike5065:
Is there any relationship between the Music Beta updates from Marketplace, and the status of the Invite? I recieved the update yesterday, but my Invite is still being processed. Wondering if my TF is being preped for the activation....

i am going to do what said to unlock my Verizon Xperia play

Blagus

Yesterday, 06:58 AM

ReTweet this post# 41

OK, after writing for 15 minutes I deleted my post since I found out something:

your phone is not SIM-locked, and has got fastboot enabled in TA.

First reflash with SEUS and decrypt firmware to have it for backup.

Then flash generic UK firmware.

Read IMEI, generate BL unlock code and unlock BL.

Flash back to Verizon's FW in case you need to.

If you still don't get IMEI after flashing generic FW, take TA backup from R800i/a phone, write it to your phone and use that IMEI to unlock BL. After that restore your TA.

and if i can unlock it will be the most epic thing ever so im gonna finish downloading the stuff and hope i dont **** up my phone

master...thanks for trying...maybe the error message will mean something to the devs. A lot of r800x owners are watching this intently!
[Xperia Play General] Blagus:
As I said in original thread, do the Omnius steps. Log+backup. Then write TA from "normal" phone (I can give you one) and try to unlock phone with it's IMEI. Then restore your TA.
[EVO 4G General] Derokk:
I been looking for the HTC Hub apk for some time now... Does anyone know where I could find it? I have a rom that says it works but it is not on the rom. Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
If you want a ROM That has it, d/l Mik 1.03. If you don't want the ROM, jsut unzip it and pull the apk
[EVO 4G General] hellcatt:
what the hell is this hub crap anyway? on the phone it does nothing at all. on the pc it just makes my phone ring, locates it and remotely wipe it. what else is it for?
[EVO 4G General] Stuke00:
download widgets, htc apps, wallpapers, ringtones, alarm sounds, notification sounds, scenes, skins, etc
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Here is the apk. It's actually really neat I'm using it on synergy.

http://db.tt/RjK9Mxr

Sent from my PC36100
[EVO 4G General] threestripebrand:
Im running synergy 6/4 that came with hub installed, but I've yet got mine to work. after I put in my email and then confirm my phone number it just fails to long in after that.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Its because you have to click the second link in the email, log in on your phone when the site loads, then finally log into the app. Its running right now for me on synergy.
[EVO 4G General] threestripebrand:
Thanks dirky, that got me in to the app, but now the catalog fails to load. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Maybe try restarting the phone. It failed on me a few times once I got logged in and I just restarted it. Try killing it with the task killer and going back in maybe; it should be working perfect now. Last tip: maybe try it without wifi (mine was on) and with wifi.
[EVO 4G General] gothymp:
that link doesnt work for me... pulls up a blank Window...
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Works for me I just tried it again from my phone. Let it sit for about 10 seconds

That link above is if you're on a comp.

This link below is for the phone.

[EVO 4G General] gothymp:
got it finally.

tried to install it... error parsing... wtf im cursed on apk's today.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
You have to use root explorer or adb and push it inside system/app. You don't install it you'll just keep getting errors. After you push it just reboot.

Edit: If you push it and it still doesn't work maybe your rom is missing some elements that it needs for hub to work. It won't work on sense 1.0 roms, just 2.1 and 3.0 sense.
[EVO 4G General] gothymp:
gotcha thanks...
[EVO 4G General] gothymp:
copied and pasted with file explorer... still a no go
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
What rom are you running? You'll need root permissions to actually push that I don't know if file explorer would work.
[EVO 4G General] gothymp:
im running azrael x atm......

just installed root explorer and giving it a go... i bet it was because i was dumb and didnt mount as R/W
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Azrael 4 is sense 1.0 dude, htc hub only works on sense 2.1 and above. That's why its not working.......
[EVO 4G General] gothymp:
guess im back to eternal prophecy
[EVO 4G General] threestripebrand:
Still unable to download catalog after app stop cleared data and restart.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] 06stang:
Would the Evo speaker grille work over the Tbolt speaker? I liked the red
[Thunderbolt Accessories] BartJJ:
No they are different sizes, you could probably detatch the grill somehow though and spraypaint it
[Thunderbolt Accessories] 06stang:
I just realized they were after actually holding an Evo. Waaaay different sizes and the Evo isn't even a grille. Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yafonda:
I have been updating and using the Nightly builds on my rooted Captivate for a few weeks. This morning I tried to update to Build 20, and I the phone is softbricked. It is stuck at the "Galaxy S Cyanogen (mod)" screen. I have tried forcing the phone into download mode using three button, still comes to the same screen.

I have just built a USB jib and the phone boots into the same screen.

The other issue I am having is the phone is no longer recognized by Windows 7, says it cannot find the drivers. The is the same PC I used to root the phone with. Since the drivers aren't there, Odin can't see the phone.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[Droid 2 Android Development] Seanydizzley:
Congrats on your first ROM! I hope that you keep updating this ROM. It's great to see someone else getting into this. I might try flashing this tonight when I get home.
[Droid 2 Android Development] wecramer:
Ok, I'm giving it a try. Will let you know.
[Droid 2 Android Development] smyers1012:
This is not my first ROM. I created GingerAle for the Droid X originally. It has a couple thousand downloads now. I just ported over to the D2
[Droid 2 Android Development] wecramer:
Just noticed during the install that it says this only works on the 1st Gingerbread leak. You may want to put that in your main post. Just a thought.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Seanydizzley:
I noticed that after I posted. I just read the OP and that was all lol.

Still congrats are in order.

Were you able to get GTalk working on this port also, or is that only on your final release for the DX?
[Droid 2 Android Development] wecramer:
How does one remove "Kevin Mohollen" from the lock screen?
[Droid 2 Android Development] smyers1012:
Lol im sorry built that in for my friend will take out in 1.0 coming on Friday! Report those bugs guys!
[Droid 2 Android Development] smyers1012:
Yes gtalk will work fine on this as well!
[Droid 2 Android Development] anmtrn:
hmm this rom looks very interesting, will wait for your 1.0 release, hopefully today to get this running on my droid2, also i read on a post earlier about this rom using the first leak is there a second gb leak for gingerbread?? in my understanding i thought there was only 1 and a deodexed release by team black hat or am i confused??
[Droid 2 Android Development] smyers1012:
i dont own a Droid 2 so my release from droid x was first GB Leak! So i just kept it in there just in case!

If I switched from an AOSP Rom to a Sense ROM, should I just flash the new rom? or should I go back to stock, and then flash the sense ROM?
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
You can go directly between the two. Just do a full wipe when changing ROMs.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
captivating
[HTC Inspire 4G] ranklepup:
Only go back to a stock restore if you really f'ed things up, and then restore another ROM from their....
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
I'll probably take a beating for saying this...

Just recently I switched from TPGB (AOSP) to AR HD (Sense) with no problem. I had to format to ext4 for ARHD before I flashed, but that was easy enough.

I was on ARHD for a long time, then wanted to try out an AOSP ROM and was using TPGB (which I love!!), but then I wanted to start playing around with the Kingdom lock screen and other Sense 3.0 mods that were available, so now I'm back to ARHD and loving it as well. I will say it's not as snappy as TPGB was, but I've installed Leedroid's kernel on top of it to give me a little more OC ability and it's doing wonderfully!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Carlrobling:
Wow really!!! First things first most roms state in the install instructions what you need to do. Second you should have asked this in the dev section under ther ROM your interested in. Flashing roms is never the same from rom to rom. You must read the devs instructions.
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
I've never seen a chef tell you that you have to flash back to stock before you flash their ROM. That was the question. It wasn't ROM specific. He wanted to know if you could switch from an AOSP ROM to a Sense ROM without first flashing back to stock. The answer is yes, you can, and the question was asked in the proper place.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Carlrobling:
Say what you would like. The question was about installing a rom. If you read the instructions on how to install the rom you want then it will tell you how to flash it. Which would have answered his question. To be honest I also don't know a single rom that you have to flash back to stock in order to use a different rom (not saying there isn't one just don't know of any you should read the instructions to be sure your flashing properly). There I answered the question the way you would have liked to see it. Thanks for being the op's voice. Again installing any rom is not the same from rom to rom read my comment before criticizing it (I gave him the correct answer just not the way you wanted to see it). If your interested in a rom read the instruction. And your not the first person to have a problem or question for that matter search search search.

P.S. Since you cant say that flashing every rom is exactly the same then it is a rom specific question.

So, about a month back, I got a Blackberry Bold 9700 to repair. The LCD was cracked. Before starting repair the customer was notified that the cost will be $80. She told me that's to expensive and I can keep it, repair it and sell it. After hearing that I havent really touched the phone. After 2 weeks she comes back to the store I work at and asks if it's ready. I try to play stupid and tell her the LCD was ordered from China and should come in any day. It comes in a few days later, I replace it, it works, and so I call her. She gets mad at me and didn't know who I was, and before me explaining myself what I'm calling about she hung up. Today (a month after she dropped it off) she came in to the store, and I happen to have a day off. Boss calls me asking about a BB, I say I have it blah blah. I check to see if it works, and what? Nothing. Just a red light. After reading up I restore the OS, and now I've been waiting for 5 minutes for it to boot up. I'll have to let it load for about an hour before I pull the battery. I think it froze at 75% loading.
