With S-OFF, it is easier to flash ClockworkMod recovery straight from HBOOT; You no longer need to do it using Unrevoked. Once CWM is in place, you can flash any rooted ROM or root the current ROM by installing su.apk.

He's asking whether S-OFF would make it easier to port ROMs from other devices to the Liberty.

The answer, though, is not really. The main issues have to do with the difference in hardware.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0be:
The biggest advantage (to me) of s-off is fastboot boot for kernel development. Yes, fastboot flash recovery is very useful (and will allow unexploited android version to be rooted), but from the advancing the phone/development side, I don't see anything trumping how much easier fastboot makes kernel dev work.
[HTC Sensation] EyeAndroid:
I am just trying to find how to check if my device has S-OFF or not?

I tried holding the...

volume up + power

volume down + power

volume up&down + power

NOTHING gets me into the h boot screen.

Its driving me crazy and I can't find it anywhere. Whats the trick?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] laidbackfreak:
Either take the battery out for a couple of seconds and the power up with volume down. OR far easier turn off the fastboot option in the power settings, then power down and then power up with volume down.

Took me a little while to work that one out too. :D
[HTC Sensation] tenbeau:
I believe you hold the volume down and power until the screen comes up.:) Make sure you have held it long enough.
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
lol as long as you take the battery out, make sure u put it back in, then keep hold of the volume down button then either tap the power button or keep hold of it, both ways it boots up

hey guys.

I´v tried different ROM the last days and I found out that I wanna go back to the original ROM. The one that came with the phone when i bought it!

I´v be looking on this site and on google. But what i could find is really complicated for me to understand.

So what im asking of is a easy understading guide to how you get your phone back to the original operating system.

plz help a noob ;)

[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
I googled and found that you can create a folder on your SD Card named "Digital Editions" and put .epub books in there and your HTC reader will find them. How do you delete the books that the app came with though? I can't find that information anywhere.

Update: I figured it out. You can't delete the books when the book cover icons are in full size mode. You have to hit the little four horizontal lines button in the left corner of the screen, and the app will display all of your books in a list with tiny icons of the book covers. Then you can hold down the one you want to delete, and the app will give you the option to delete it. This is a pretty cool little app, now that I figured out how to use it.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onyx_64:
Hi gang,

So, my area was upgraded to LTE recently and its good! But then, I also noticed higher standby power dissipation (which can be expected), but I wanted to know where I stood in the distribution. I charged the phone to 100% and went to sleep. When I woke up the following morning, it had lost ~20% of its charge, with about 8 hours of standby and minimal awake time.

So, can you help me by posting here, your details as follows?:

- Are you in 4G/3G area?

- % of battery lost overnight

- Time for which your phone was in Standby/Sleep for the night.

- The Radio version.

- The ROM you are using.

- Kernel version you are using and whether or not you are underclocking/undervolting. If you are then please specify the freq-voltage of the lowest slot (used in standby most of the time).

I'll start with mine:

- 4G

- 18 to 20%

- 8 hours

- MR2 leaked radio (1.39.00.0508w, 0.01.69.0510w_3)

- Gingeritis beta 9

- Imoseyon's v3.0.1test1. UC'ed and UV'ed: 184Mhz - 0.9V

I know that there are other factors that affect this, but dont want to make this complicated.

Thanks!

Why do u take it off the charger at night? Makes no sense
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sublimaze:
OP wants to get a minimal rate of power drain and eliminate as many variables as possible. He wants to see how his setup compares to others. Letting your phone sit & doing nothing with it for 6-8 hrs is a simple way to figure this out.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dnakaman:
I understand what you are saying, but really what is the purpose?

Yes it will give you baseline as to how long your battery may last, if you just let it sit.

But what is important is how long it will last when being used. That number can vary greatly depending on how you use the phone.

It's kinda like EPA estimates on cars. Does a car that says it gets 34 mpg really get 34 mpg based on the way you drive?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onyx_64:
Thanks for the replies guys.. I just want to figure out how the power consumption in my phone compares to others.

@Benny

Yeah, i unplug the phone and dont let it charge overnight. Though the charging cuts off after its full, it can resume when it drops a little.

http://lifehacker.com/5789794/avoid-frequent-discharges-to-extend-your-phone-or-laptops-battery-life

@dnakaman & abn75

Well, I meant overnight, just to get a period of ~8hours in standby. Since you have it plugged in overnight, just let me know the amt of charge you lose, when you keep the phone in standby without using for a long enough time.

@goos3y

I thought abt that too, but its not the 184Mhz.. coz I was getting good enough charge retention just before my area went to 4G. So this thread is to mainly compare 4G standby power dissipation actually.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onyx_64:
Yeah, it differs a lot the way we use it. But when we are not using it (when the phone is in idle/standby) it should only depend on the phone's setup (the conditions i mentioned in the OP). Esp in 4G. I was just trying to make sense if the HTC thunderbolt in 4G coverage can lose 20% charge when its idle for 8 hrs.

I have never been in 4G until now.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onyx_64:

I'm sure there are some formidable, if not better options. I haven't heard a mention of Limewire for what seems like years. So long as you get it done, I suppose.

That's why I like the idea of this so far; just put your music up and it is available all over. Was already using different means to achieve as much, and so this has definitely sufficed so far.

[EVO 4G General] thanamesjames:
Ughh... OP is absolutely clueless. Did he really complain about it being a webapp? And really, limewire being the best place to get music?

Google Music has been absolutely AWESOME for me. With that said, I have access to my school's internet connection and was able to upload 20gig worth of music in about 5 hours. There is definitely a lack of appeal of having to upload music, it would have taken me forever on any other connection i have access to.

Anyways the web app is awesome. The android app is awesome. Having your music with you everywhere is too cool.
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
LOL

Agreed. My CR-48 has been loving it. Talk about cutting down on methods of making music 'off site' available. I LOLed at the Limewire mention. :D

No real complaints. I'm more interested in how Google handles the service as a whole; specifically price. I'd like to stick around. :)

+1 for Google Music b love.
[EVO 4G General] bkrodgers:
The only issue I have, but it's a huge one for me, is that if I'm on 3G or otherwise having any connectivity issues, it starts streaming it at a low bitrate. OK, I guess that makes sense, though I'd like an option to tell it to wait and buffer until it can play it at a high bitrate.

The problem I have is that from that point on, that song is ALWAYS played at a low bitrate. It's cached that low bitrate version and doesn't ever try to download the higher quality version. The only way to get the high bitrate version is to clear it from the cache of offline music. But because it names the files with just a randomly assigned number, it's difficult to find that one song to delete, so I basically have to clear the whole offline cache.

I tried living with it, but I'm finding myself turning to subsonic again instead. I like the fact that GMusic is available even if my internet connection at home is on the fritz though. (for those who don't know about subsonic, it streams directly from your computer. No cloud.)
[EVO 4G General] ajd2416:
Music search and Download v3.0 is my favorite one and it has a charts tab that list top 100 songs based on genre and location.
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
Yeah I have noticed things can get caught up on the poorer connections. Thankfully I've seen it only a handful of times. :/
[EVO 4G General] thanamesjames:
Hmmm. I hadn't noticed this, as honestly the music I listen to mostly is still kept on my sd card. This is definitely an inconvenient problem. Most of my music is at 320... so it's not something I'm too fond of either. Maybe it's worth mentioning to google... this is still considered very beta, and they may consider changing how cache settings are handled.

Another little annoyance I have in the google music app for android, is it would be nice, if not using a playlist or playing from an album to be able to choose the next song you want to play, so that song could start buffering.

Just out of curiosity, what do you mean by taking over? It's definitely my player of choice, especially since it has a semi-sync feature to android or sdcards.
