i have just tried it.. normally when i change any system file with text editor, i click on "save&exit" and it says it is saved and the original file is named as xxxxxxx.bak..

but this time there is no .bak file and the original file is not changing.. i write 1200000 but when i try to open it again it turns back into 1000000 ...

Tried that too. Root explorer says it's modded it but if you open it again, no change has been applied :(

Apparently, it's read only even after changing permissions.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkube:
Just a trial idea, copy that file to as card, then edit it. See if it saved then, then rename old one as xxxx.bak and paste the edited file there.

I can't do it as I am on a custom kernal and i am able to change it as I said.

Check it out and tell if that's any help

[HTC Desire S] ALdaperan:
Hello world..

2 days ago I bought my brand new htc desire s and i have some questions :

1) My android version is 2.3.3 . Is there any newer version for desire s ? It shoyld be updated from htc or i have to put it manually ? If yes , is there any tutorial ?

2) my htc sense is 2.1 . Is there any new version ? tutorial ?

3) I must do my desire s root ? Is it safe ?

thanks in advance
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
Well, i will try answer your questions.

1)

The last android version you can get at the moment from the company is 2.3.3. the 2.3.4 is out but not officialy for desire s

2)

The last htc sense you can get from company at the moment is 2.1, but you can install custom roms and get part of 3.0

3) To root a phone is never safe, but it have a really low possibility to brick your phone.. or none.. so it can be said that is safe.. but its not something that the phone was programmed to do.

You dont must to root it but if you want custom content like the 3.0 sense and more you must to
[HTC Desire S] ALdaperan:
1)My android will be updated from htc when 2.3.4 will be ready ? The unofficial 2.3.4 is stable or it has bugs ? where can i find it ?

2)Htc sense 3 is better than 2.1 ? (what is better ? any link to see the difference?) Where can i find it to install it ?

3)Any tutorial to see how can i root my desire s?

Sorry for the questions but i am newbie and i dont know so much about android :confused:
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
Its fine :)

1) We cant know if it will be updated...from htc.. i guess it will. and no one made a custom rom with that build from this phone yet.. so no, atm you cant install 2.3.4.

2)HTC Sense 3 is GREAT. you can search in youtube for video. like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=671zezwSNhE

To get it yo uneed to get a custom rom that have it

3) Well, to root this phone you need a hardware piece called XTC Clip at the moment, there could be another ways soon. HTC said they will release an official way to unlock the phones so can root them and install custom roms.

You can check in this forum for the custom mod available for Desire S like this one

[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
The XTC Clip isn't necessary. If your one of the lucky few, your device is already S-OFF. This means that the "security flag" on your phone is turned off. This is exactly what people use XTC Clip for. Check if your device is s-off or s-on. If it's S-On, u need the clip. Else, LUCKY YOU !!!!!!

Here's how-

Pull out your phone's battery, so that it's completely off.

Then, re-insert it. First, hold the volume down key, then without releasing it, press and hold the power key. Then release it but hold the Vol. down key till you see a white screen wit text on it. The first line should say somthing like -

SAGA PVT. SHIP (S-OFF/S-ON)

There, now u know if you're S-OFF or S-On
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
Lets hope you are one of the lucky person and you have S-OFF! :)
[HTC Desire S] monswag:
my ds has S-OFF with XTC clip ,and the guy said it won't S-ON again.Is the official method can make the phone s-off and make it s-on again?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Itaintrite:
Pretty sneaky of Asus to do this. Release a Wifi version only to announce a 3G model less than 2 months later... Not sure if I will be one to return my Wifi TF, but I'll definitely consider it.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/11/asus-slipping-eee-pad-slider-and-transformer-3g-into-uk-hands-th/
[Eee Pad Transformer General] djdevine2:
There was always going to be a 3g version, they just said that it would follow in the months after launch.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] oushouseki:
I feel lucky that my wife stopped me buying the wifi version last night.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] theparanoid:
That nice, but really I do not need 3g on my tablet. My phone got 3g and I can use it as a wifi hotspot.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] digitheatre:
wifi version is good enough for me.. tethering to the rescue
[Eee Pad Transformer General] motoatrix:
+1 to that.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zephiK:
+1.. U.S. carriers are probably going to charge you crap loads just to have a plan with them too.

lol.. such a rip off compared to the TF101
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Itaintrite:
Tethering is nice and all. But if you only have a 200MB data plan for your phone, it's not really an option. Browsing a desktop version of a website is already a few MBs. I don't think the 3G version will cost that much more, max (my guess) is $100 with no contract.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zephiK:
$100 for a tablet off contract? whaaaaaaaaaaat?

the XOOM 3G & G-Slate (T-Mobile) off contract is like ~$800
[Eee Pad Transformer General] berbecverde:
I think he meant 399+100.:p
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zephiK:
Then you'd get yourself a 32GB ;) I'd assume at least $200+
[Eee Pad Transformer General] flumpster:
I think he means $100 dollars more.. but you are still going to have to have a data plan so wouldn't it make more sense to update your phones data plan and tether it than have 2 data plans on the go. Or is 3g data free where you live?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] starplaya93:
Well most people complain whenever wifi only models of tablets don't come out. Asus just gave its customers what we wanted. An inexpensive, quality tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jerrykur:
Sounds good for those that want 3G. I prefer a Wifi only version. Like others I can use my phone Wifi hotspot, and I have sprint unlimited 4 g.

Also, Asus did the right move by shipping a Wifi only version first. That gave Asus a low price point which brought them in under the competition, especially the iPad. Motorola lost a lot of sales by bring out a 3G Xoom which was perceived as considerably more expensive.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Jocelyn:
200MB? D: I guess I should be happy I have unlimited via Sprint
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jayhovah:
Got unlimited data on my Evo 4G.... Love my wifi only TF.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] frosty5689:
The premium involved with 3G model is not worth it. Not to mention an extra data plan just for the tablet. Tether ftw! Seriously though I don't think most need internet on their tablet all the time. For stuff like email jist use your phone.

Hi guys...

I am running BAMF ginger rom and the new radio MR2...

Since yesterday I am getting 4g...then it goes to 3g then it goes to 1x then it goes to nothing!!

I reboot...4g comes for about 4 minutes and then the same thing happens....

I called VZ yesterday and they said they were not aware of any problems...

I am wondering if anyone else in the NYC area (I am on Long Island) is experiencing the same thing that I am...

I may go back to BAMF 1.6.3 and the FROYO radio to see if there is any change
[Thunderbolt General] NotJustAPhone:
LTE working fine in NYC.
[Thunderbolt General] g00s3y:
No problems here in northern Jersey
[Thunderbolt General] m1mgd00:
I wanted to give this a bump because I've been having issues with 4g all day

I'm in NYC near the Flatiron district. I've had to turn off LTE to get 3g. I was running the OTA MR2 radio and also tried the (older) MR2.5 radio.
[Thunderbolt General] lrs421:
My 4g has been fine today in Brooklyn and Queens.

bummer that is the problem.. connect fails.. works fine over wifi and works fine over 3g in froyo.. same problem in other phones include sgs ii.. it is a google/gb bug. unfort. i need it for system admin.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
any update on these problems with jvq ... anyone
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dimi75-xda:
I don't think so. Because PPTP over 3G does work flawlessly on my SGS II. Maybe it fails for you because it's blocked by your cell provider.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MindToAsk:
PPTP VPN works fine for me overs 3g. I guess it depends on the carrier (I'm on Orange Romania). Sometimes it fails to connect though - reboot solves it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
Nope pptp works fine on my provider with 3g with my Sgs with froyo but not gingerbread and does not work with my Sgs ii, in fact no one on the Sgs ii forum had got it working, I'm not sure I believe you, are you sure you are usbig a pptp vpn and over 3g and not WiFi.
[HTC Sensation] digiholic:
Been heavily testing my 4g all over my city of Greensboro, NC for three days now. No signal issues, no drops, stays 4g everywhere except in my office building. All four carriers suck in my building. Even then... I still get 4g inside most of the time. My downloads blaze! Running simultaneous tests against my woman's G2... my Sensation is always a little faster.

Average bandwidth = 3 Mbs to 9 Mbs

If you experience slow latency (like the market is slow to load) go to this post for a neat fix. Mine loads everything faster now.

-edit-

Takes me about 10 seconds to fully load everything on the Engadget web site with plug ins on and desktop browser mode. This is using Dolphin HD browser. That's fast!

If you use the speedtest.net app click the results tab after the test for the true speeds. The main display seems to lie.
[HTC Sensation] nemoshotyany:
I'm in Baltimore, MD and so far I'm getting about 800 k up and down. About 10 times as fast as my Sprint 3g connection.
[HTC Sensation] phburks:
Hope you mean 8000k lol
[HTC Sensation] digiholic:
800k could be the "speed" and equate to a 6.4 Mbs "pipe"
[HTC Sensation] Scoop24:
I'm hitting 9- 10 mbs by my house and job consistently.
[HTC Sensation] Shaquiel Harris:
I did the fix yesterday and it is still slower than my vision. Just my pyramid stays connected to 4g easier even during phone calls.
[HTC Sensation] phburks:
Could be a typo too ... or could just be really crappy network speed if it is indeed 800kbps.
[HTC Sensation] nemoshotyany:
No its really 800k. Today I hit around 1400k down 900 up. I'm happy tho. On Verizon I was getting 600 kbps if I was lucky. And I'd be lucky to top 100kbps these last few months I was on Sprint
[HTC Sensation] mpjohns3:
Where the hell do you live!?!? lol
[HTC Sensation] dcrin3:
I might be getting this phone from my sprint evo 4g phone but it is NOT 4g, it is HSPA+. Why does everyone insist on calling it a 4g phone?

[HTC Sensation] Darnell_Chat_TN:
When I'm in Baltimore with my HD2 running a Nexus ROM I get 2-3Mpbs. I think nemoshotyany needs to try the recommended speed fix.
[HTC Sensation] Darnell_Chat_TN:
Oh let it go already. Even the bodies that define the term have given into the marketing hype. "4G" is said to use a term everyone knows already. The few of us geeks who know otherwise understand just the same. I'm sure you do too.

Bottom line, it's got speed, that's what everyone wants. None of the carriers reach what the original definition of 4G was to be. The carriers call it 4G, so just use the term for the sake of agreement. What the carriers originally called "3G" was not really 3G, but let's not get caught up in a side bar when everyone knows what is being asked. Either the device reaches speeds the carrier calls their "4G" speeds or it does not.
[HTC Sensation] E-MAC:
Call it what you want, but I switched to this phone from the Evo "4G" and these network speeds blow away that of the Evo.
[HTC Sensation] nemoshotyany:
Thanks. But i tried that after I ran a few tests and only when I left it off did I notice any improvement.
[HTC Sensation] mchap87:
2g reception

i have tried the quick fix to no avail. i am running on 2g speeds around my house. 1 mile over though i am getting 4g speeds.

question is, is this a tmobile tower related issue or a issue with the radio on the phone.

edit- i was getting at least 3g speeds on my old samsung behold in the same area.

New Orleans, La.
[HTC Sensation] ChrisAC84:
I live in Knoxville, TN. I am lucky to get 600 kbps around here. I have occasionally hit 6-9 Mbps, but only a handful of times, and not for more than a couple minutes. Not sure if it's a tower issue, or a radio issue. T-Mobile is looking into. My speeds were much faster when I had my Evo on Sprint :(
[HTC Sensation] dcrin3:
Don't get me wrong. That is the reason I said I am dumping my HTC Evo. I ran a test on tmo speeds on a g2x and I was blown away. So I figured, why the hell do I need to pay for premium data when 4G is not even available in my area since Sept. 2010.

So I decided that I will be getting this phone tomorrow when it releases at a retailer. But my argument still stands, it is HSPA+. :p
[HTC Sensation] nemoshotyany:
I got mine from Wal-Mart on the 9th.. unless u meant a tmobile retail store.
[HTC Sensation] dcrin3:
costco is what I meant. Are there upcoming deals from any of the retail stores(walmart,sams,costco,etc)
[HTC Sensation] jonyang:
Speeds in Minnesota stinks a$s.. I'm everywhere from anoka all the way south to Burnsville.. I haven't got anything over 5 mbps .. I consistantly get 1-1.5mbps with 2-3 4g bars...
[HTC Sensation] digiholic:
HSPA+ in a good coverage area is blazing. Doesn't matter what it's called. ;) I downloaded the 225Mb game Contract Killer in the same time it took me to smoke my cig sitting outside. I get a consistent 6-7 Mbs at my house.
[HTC Sensation] Scoop24:
It definitely has something to do with toggle ciphering. If you turn it off. Your speeds will be fine. But from what I read it's not something you want off.
[HTC Sensation] digiholic:
I turned mine off, airplane mode, then back on. So ciphering is on for mine with exceptional speeds and fast latency.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Did the data latency thing and for me it seemed to 'wake up' the phone a bit. Prior to the fix, I was getting like .45mbps to .92mbps. After the fix I am now getting 3.9mbps constant in my house and I have horrid reception in my house. And thats with three bars of "4g".

Hi All,

I had a few issues when upgrading from Coredroid 6.1 to 6.8 on my DHD.

Something went wrong and I was left with the phone booting to the HTC screen but managed to get everything restored, following which I upgraded to Coredroid 6.7.

I have attached screenshots of the before and after software information screen from which you will see that after the upgrade it is no longer recognising the kernel.

Can anyone give me any guidance.

Thanking you in advance
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] georgeeasten:
Apparently this is normal

The kernel is MDJs kernel which is not recognised by the system software info display.

Latest Coredroid comes with leedroid kernel which does display correctly.

For future reference, you could just use AppBrain and it would list all the apps on your phone/tablet rather than going in depth of each app. But the description of every app is pretty cool. Very informative.

Yeah when apps aren't made for tablets, they can appear awful because of the size. I would make a AppBrain for my TF101 but I don't have enough apps on it yet that it would even any useful so I didn't bother yet.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] JieeHD:
Okay if you go to HTC's website, click support, select your phone and then look under ROM upgrades or something like that there should be an RUU which is specific to your carrier, download and run that. This will take your phone back to firmware 1.5, so you then need to upgrade back to 2.1, once you have 2.1 just root and re-flash a custom recovery.

Although if your comfortable with using ADB then there is another method, which i will explain to you if you think you are competent enough with ADB.
