I am about to flash CWM using Heimdall, Using this method thegalaxytabforum dot com/index.php?/topic/1775-clockworkmod-for-sprint-galaxy-tabs/ I am at the step where I flash zImage Do I need to be in download mode, It says that it fails to detect compatible device, how do I fix this?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsu_golfer:
Need to be in download mode
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvtjoker42:
to put it in download mode power it down, hold vol down + power till it shows the download screen. you should be good to go with heimdall then.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Well, this is interesting.

On my Revo4g, all I did was enable USB debugging in internet only mode, and i'm faced with this:

c:\tools\android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb shell
# busybox whoami
busybox whoami
whoami: unknown uid 0
#

Looks like there's no need for rageagainstthecage, or any exploits. ADB is run as superuser already! (although for some reason ro.secure is set, and it seems to be ignored, so it possibly may be a bug)

EDIT: Nope, verified. Toggle ADB debugging on and off, and you're root!

This is most definitely not what LG intended, but hey- it works!

Still no signs of fastboot without accidentally erasing recovery or something. Looks like it's left in as emergency-only.

If you're not rooted, try this:

Open ADB shell

Your command prompt should be "$"

Run

kill `busybox pidof adbd`

Re-run ADB shell, your command prompt should change to "#"

Congrats! You're root.. now you can push "su" and whatnot.

That was strangely easy...
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
OKAY... So, I don't need to do superoneclick? And I don't need to go through the painful process of downloading 3-4 programs?
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Well, if you've got ADB installed, then no you don't need superoneclick, but it's main claim to fame is that it's got all of the tools bundled together.

Stick with superoneclick until I get an easy method put together...
[LG Revolution] OmiDroid:
LOL... That's sweet!
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Like I mentioned elsewhere... LG wants Verizon to think all is locked down and such but secretly behind its back it is giving us free candy. Like when grandpa and grandma hide money in your room before leaving...

They left in everything needed, we only had to put the pieces together.

Bravo LG bravo... now can we have the source code for this device for 2.2 and 2.3..
[LG Revolution] powder007:
Now i'm for sure rooting today, as i already have adb installed. Epic.
[LG Revolution] powder007:
So i ran ADB Shell and it automatically gave me "#". I then proceeded to "kill 'busybox pidof adbd' " and it said it did it. Still had "#". I don't seem to have root though. I can't delete bingsearch.apk, can't do anything in setcpu.

When i installed super user from the market, it did say there was an update, so it asked if i wanted to install it. I said yes, and it said an error occurred but it put a zip on my sd card to update the binary and that i need to reboot into recovery and install it.

Any ideas? I don't have cwm yet so i can't exactly do that. Here's how the whole thing went down:

C:\AndroidSDK\platform-tools>adb shell
*daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
*daemon started successfully *
# kill 'busybox pidof adbd'
kill 'busybox pidof adbd'
[1] Terminated kill "busybox pidof adbd"
#
[LG Revolution] powder007:
Nevermind, i just went with super one click and i have root now.
[LG Revolution] bill.allrobots.org:
Those were back-ticks, like this: `` not single quotes: ' '

setCPU will require superuser.apk and a working su. Did you mount the system partition r/w by hand before trying to delete bing? Using this method, you'd have to mount r/w, then push su, etc.
[LG Revolution] powder007:
Ah, my bad. I'm semi new to adb. Thanks for pointing that out.

I had the super user app from the market. On root explorer it didn't give me a Mount r/w button, so i knew i wasn't rooted.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
The problem with this rooting method is that it's incomplete.

My method gives you entry to a root shell-- it does not "root" your device.

A "rooted" device requires a file in /system/bin/ called "su", which allows normal Android apps to access root functionality on the device.

The method I detail allows you to manually remount /system as r/w and push the required file to the proper location without requiring an exploit.

Once I have some time free from working on the deodex'd rom, and porting CM7, I will make a super-super easy one click root application for windows/linux.

Until then, this thread is mostly for technical reference for devs, and something interesting that I found :)
[HTC Sensation] hah2110:
My handset and speaker volume is pretty low.
[HTC Sensation] DroidRC1:
Yes it force closes I've sent dev a alogcat
[HTC Sensation] jasminpa:
any other options for us?
[HTC Sensation] Kitinas:
There's an option in call settings for "Hearing aids" that says it'll bump up in-call volume. Haven't used it yet, so I don't know how well it works.

Granted I'm guessing it's -only- for phone calls, so for music/video playback I don't have an answer for you unfortunately.
[HTC Sensation] vegetaleb:
Do you mean the speaker is as low as other HTC?

I thought it will be better than DHD and N1...
[HTC Sensation] czguy:
volume sucks

Low volume is one of the issues that bugs me with Sensation. The ring volume is low even at max and volume trough headphones is way too low.

This needs to be addressed by HTC ASAP in their new ROM.
[HTC Sensation] darkjuan:
The Stock music app has a feature called "SRS enhancement" It helps with the sound quality tremendously! It can be used either while listening to music or with the stock video player.
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
I've had good results from an app called Equalizer.
[HTC Sensation] JayBachatero:
I changed the hearing aids setting and it has helped a lot for calls.
[HTC Sensation] leo876:
The "hearing aid" option does help out with the volume not just for calls but all other audio output as well. I guess I must be hard of hearing (by HTC's standards) because I really don't understand why the phone had such a low volume setting to begin with.
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Well let's hope the Volume+ developer get it to work with the Sensation. I Just send him an email....
[HTC Sensation] hah2110:
Hearing Aid is annoying because it doesn't help with speakerphone AND you can't lower the volume!
[HTC Sensation] basilpatel:
I installed volume+ today and it makes huge difference in sound quality

I think it is now supportable to HTC sensation

Thanks to its developer

[HTC Sensation] mahesh_9j:
Volume+ (Sound Boost) APK

I am also using Volume+ and its working fine on my Sensation...it increases the volume level to a decent level. If you guys want to use the app. Then here is the latest version attached.

Please press"Thanks" if I have helped you in any manner. :)
[HTC Sensation] r3v0Lut10n:
same here. u can set different volume/bass boost/eq level for speaker, headset, and BT connection :)
[HTC Sensation] oaussieo:
Thanks Great app, I tried changing Hearing aid setting but this only work while on a call, this app works great...
[HTC Sensation] cp3o:

[HTC Sensation] secano:
I've been using "Equalizer", as Volume+ Fc's too much. Pretty good so far.
[HTC Sensation] n1ghtl1fe:
anyone know if turning on the SRS sound enhancement in stock music app enhances other apps sound or just stop music app ?
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Volume + never fc on me.
[HTC Sensation] snowblindd:
it seems that the developer fixed the FC on 1.7.2 version, but i still get one after 4-5 phone calls...
[HTC Sensation] gottabekin:
I thought it is a free app... :(

[HTC Sensation] mathrania:
Yes, I am using Volume+ ... it works perfectly...
[HTC Sensation] OctobersVeryOwn:
Great app!!! Helps a bit. I'm considering ditching the sensation just because of the overall limited volume of the phone. It is afterall a PHONE....you should be able to hear the people you talk to.
[HTC Sensation] n1ghtl1fe:
honestly im pretty happy with call volume. I saw sublime and 311 in chicago last night and was surprisingly able to hear a call in the mosh pit haha
[HTC Sensation] fazerrider:

Holy Crap...that should wake up the neighborhood :eek::D
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
holy crap it works!!!

I'm only on +3 volume level, room enhancement on(set to 0), and eq on good quality.

sounds so much better... omg. :eek:

I actually had to turn the speaker down some... :D
[HTC Sensation] 1MoreMinute:
Im kind of a newbie here, but I downloaded the 1.7.3 from the guys website onto my laptop, how do I get the program to go on my phone?

Sorry! Thanks guys, your always very helpful here.
[HTC Sensation] 1MoreMinute:
HA, I figured it out!!

But to me it doesn't seem to make it any louder. I am going to putz with it some more!

If anyone has the time, can you post your settings, maybe I'm missing something!

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
try turning on the "virtual room effect" if you haven't already.

you'll hear the difference right away with it just being on.

I have it on but the setting on 0. couldn't tell a difference from 0 to the higher settings so I just left it on 0.

as I said above on my previous post, my settings...

volume boost: +3

EQ: good quality

virtual room effect: on, set to 0.

works for me. play with to find your "sweet spot". :)
[HTC Sensation] snowblindd:
i still get a FC with 1.7.3 ... anyone else can confirm this ? (is it maybe because i still use equalizer? )
[HTC Sensation] ptit developer:
On my "Old Android Phone", i used "Volume Boost", even if i had a good powerfull sound, but on my "HTC Ssensation", it is already awesome.

[HTC Sensation] s10shane:
yeah i noticed my sensation 4gs ring volume sucks really bad. i can barley hear it in my pocket when i was at target. they need to let use crack it past what it can do now or if there is an app i can use to make it much louder that would be nice. thats 1 of the things i give to the galaxy s phones, there speakers kick ass and sound great compared to any htc phones speaker ive heard.

nevermind i used that volume+ app and it works perfect.
[HTC Sensation] ROM_Guest:
Can someone be so kind as to share the Volume + Pro 1.73 settings?

..for handset volume too, if applicable.

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] s10shane:
so u want the apk so u can install it? cause thats what im using
[HTC Sensation] carlsontheflyer:
I just installed Volume+ 1.7.3 on my Sensation and all I can say is WOW! It made a huge difference in speaker volume.

I set it to:

VR ON at 0 level

Volume +5

EQ at Good Quality

Base Boost +1 (may not be necessary)

I can actually hear my phone ringing now, in-call speaker is loud enough to hear the other person, and audio levels are much better!

Great job, developer! I am gonna test drive it for a few days, and if all works well, and there are no FC's, I will get the paid version.
[HTC Sensation] billyapd21:
Can someone post the market link? I've been a really hard time finding market apps, even searching for them by exact name. I'm not sure what the problem is. Or if someone can post the updated apk (7.7.3). Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] :
please disregard this post.
[HTC Sensation] Spyderlotus:
Actually I have used it and still do. The newest version ( paid for ofcourse ), has a fix for the sensation. It works really well too, especially when plugged into headphones or into a stereo via audio cable through the top. You should get the paid version, its definitely worth it :)

I also have a Incredible S here.

The difference between the two is amazing

The sound of the Incredible is way better.

Even with volume+ in max, the Incredible so much better.

The sensation is everyting i want in a phone, but speaker quality is so bad :(

[HTC Sensation] RestInPieces209:
I just installed volume+ on my sensation and was messing with the settings while playing music in the backround and I gotta say it doesn't really sound better to me. Turned on VR and put volume at 7 and doesn't really seem louder too me. It is louder with volume at 15+ but more of an annoying type of loud. Am I doing something wrong?
[HTC Sensation] piimp:
This app works nicely, bt I always have to start it manually, when I wanna play music I have to remember to open the app, I would like it to open automatically when any music starts /incoming call.

Is there a setting for this?

Edit: figured out that after u change the settings, need to exit the app by using the back button. Now no need to run the app manually n it doesn't show as running in task manager when u exit this way.
[HTC Sensation] MeatyCoins:
im setting the app up then exiting and noticing no difference...is a reboot required ?
[HTC Sensation] mczhu:
Did I do something wrong? I noticed no difference with or without it.
[HTC Sensation] vovanopulo:
Strange - after installing 1.7.0 - when I have incoming call and take it up - loudspeaker turns on automatically. Did someone have this behavior? How could I disable that? It's pretty annoying to disable loudspeaker each time someone calls me :(

--- updated ---

Ah sorry, Volume+ wasn't the culprit for my problem. Actually it was car panel daemon process which I don't know how to turn off. So reboot has worked out for me.

This app really bumped up volume on my RockPlayerLite - now I can hear Matri from 'Outsourced' much better when in the subway train =)
[HTC Sensation] zgmf-x322a:
i use vol+....modifying the headset settings :P
[HTC Sensation] pushpann:
not sure if it works... I'll try as soon as i'll be @ home.
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
Newest version works fine from the developers site.Used it in Headset settings and bluetooth
[HTC Sensation] basilpatel:
Hi friends

Yes, definitely volume+ makes difference.It fc sometimes but I think it is not problem with the volume+.

If it will fc then just open again and it will works fine.

You don't need to reboot again.

There are three different settings. We need too tick mark what we need like speaker and headset. Then we need to go further down in settings to increase volume manually like volume, brass and virtual room. We need to open it manually and set the volume level.

But be careful because above recommend settings will harm your speakers.

In equalizer settings I always choose the spoken words. It is my liking.

After settings all the above options pls don't select the bottom settings because it may be overrides the top settings.

I hope it helps to all who have problems with volume+

If it helps, pls don't forget to hit help button.

Thanks

I use Volume+ and it works fine for me.
[HTC Sensation] clandes:
Using Volume+ together with the new Virtuous Sensation XE ROM and it works perfectly. Never had a better sound on any MP3 player or cell phone. No FCs whatsoever so far. :)
[HTC Sensation] |Black|:
I second to this. I use the XE ROM as well with Volume+ and so far the best music experience I ever had. I had some fc's when changing rom and restoring in Titanium Backup, but the fix permissions in Rom manager cleared such issues most of the time.
[HTC Sensation] sajued:
Works great here
[HTC Sensation] Aegishua:
Those give me better sounding music than Winamp with DFX. All you need to do is adjust the sliders till you find something that suits you best.

I'm currently using over my bluetooth headset:

Low: 100
Low/Mid: 119
Mid: 103
Mid/High: 101
High: 99
Volume Level: 6
Bass Boost: 0
Echo/Delay Level: 4

I don't use bass boost on my phone since my Car's stereo has enough bass as it is.

Should be rooted ?

Should i need my mobile phone to be rooted for the Volume+ to be effective?

I have tried configuring Volume+ so many times in my non rooted HTC Sensation mobile phone.

But, it is not improving the sound volume even slightly.

Please gimme a candle.
