[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Shorte85:
I may be disliked by some for saying this.

But would one of the moderators please close this topic? It's stupid to let this conversation keep going, when some people are being very impatient and can't wait. Bickering back and forth about when it's coming out, if it's real or not and etc is stupid. I would rather know that the root works correctly, rather than get it quickly and have my phone brick. BE PATIENT PEOPLE.

Those that are working on the root, I thank you and do realize you have a life outside of the online world AND your phone. Again, I appreciate you taking the time out of your life to get what everyone else is unable to do which is achieve a root for the phone.

Again, I think this topic should be closed.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] DeviceSettings:
This is crazy. There is truly no way to please people. If we had Root, but didn't have any Roms or Recovery everyone people would be stomping their feet. Everything is set up to go as soon as the S-off is released. Let the Devs do their work.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zookii:
I agree. S-off is in the works. Once available we have all the tools to finish the job. The devs are doing what they can in the limited time available. I can't wait to have root yet myself but I understand that I have to wait and don't complain.

AlphaRevX will provide us with the ability when it's good and ready.

Hey Im new to Android and would like to use the 3G from my Blackberry Torch and teather with my tab. Anybody have any experience doing this? I'd appreciate any help I could get!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cdf3:
I used to tether my laptop to my BlackBerry using TetherBerry. It's now just called Tether.

http://tether.com/

You can see if it'll work with the Tab. I no longer have my BlackBerry, therefore I'm not 100% sure if it'll work. I would assume so.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Susyq:
Thank you for helping me, but it didn't seem to work as the tab is neather Mac nor PC. Other tethering apps also seem to be geared towards Macs or PCs, but not mobil devices, such as tablets. Any other suggestion. Thanks again.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
This is about the Samsung Galaxy S II Battery Cover, but i'm gonna say it goes for the InFuSe as well, the shells of each device are almost identical.

Worried About the Flimsy Plastic Samsung Galaxy S II Battery Cover? Watch this Video.

http://youtu.be/ErXqnQKs-tA

We still have no official word on when the Samsung Galaxy S II will land stateside or on Verizon, but until then, the video above should ease any concerns over the fragility of its plastic battery cover. Since the phone debuted earlier this year, one of the biggest knocks against the device (any Samsung device for that matter) was the fact that the back plate felt (or at least looked) like it might break every time it needed to be pulled off. The video that our buddies over at Phandroid have uncovered clearly shuts down that notion.

All I can say, is please be 4G whenever you do arrive.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] The Jack of Clubs:
maybe its not made out of cheap materials as i once though. not that i really cared as its to make the phones as thin as possible, which it does. and with the very nice texture on the back and no hollowness between it and the battery and components, it feels really nice anyways.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
actually. that seems pretty legit. seeing how he bent it, seems like you cant break it. which is kind of neat.

If you want to go back to stock...click the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1044474 use the DL09 download in Odin and make sure you put that in the PDA part.

That will take you back to stock. If you want to go further with it...you can always upgrade the phone via Verizon...I have used DL09 to take me back to stock and then I used the EA28 update as well (which you can use also) then update from the EA28 via Verizon. It works everytime.

If that don't work...try it again but add the PIT file (just search for atlas.pit) if you can't find it let me know and I'll link to it.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drnihili:
Or you can look at the sticky at the top of this forum. Here's the link in case you're on mobile. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1053567

Basically, you Odin to some version of stock. DL09 and DI01 are the most common. Once there, just use OTA to bring you up to current.

This thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=908451 has links to both Odin and DL09 and instructions on how to use them.

Once you've booted into DL09, press the menu button, then choose Settings, then About Phone, then System Updates, then Check New. Apply any updates VZW offers and then check for more. Keep doing that until there aren't any left.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drnihili:
Wait, you say you rooted your phone. Did you just root it or did you install a ROM? If all you did is root your phone, then you're already on stock. In that case you just need to unroot, which is a much simpler process.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckirkp79:
Sorry it took me so long to get back to ya, I installed a rom to root my phone. I went all the way back to DL09, then I applied the EA28 update from Adryn thread, then from there I just kept updating through Verizon until there was nothing left...then I put Clockwork 3.x.x on it, then I installed UKB 2.0 and it rooted automatically.

Hope that helps you. You will only make it to the ED04 update, then from there if you want it stock just leave it be, or install UKB 2.0 w/either pbj kernal or otb.

i used visionary to temp root my device, then i clicked on the perm root option just to say what happened then my phone froze i started touching the screen and a menu popped up and i clicked an option on accident. the option on the left. then my phone shut off and is froze on the htc boot screen. i pulled the battery and the same thing happened. i tried a factory data reset and the phone is still frozen on the boot screen. please help T-Mo G2, 2.2, no roms
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsteven77x:
I really do not know why the visionary guides are allowed on these forums. I find it GROSSLY irresponsible of the mods. It has been proven TIME AND TIME AND TIME AND TIME again that visionary bricks phone. For god sakes there is a sticky at the top of the forum saying DON'T USE VISIONARY FOR PERM ROOT. Your phone might be screwed. And its really not your fault. Those threads need closed. Period. Seriously mods, how many phones do you want ruined before you rid the forum of the visionary crap. The gfree method among MANY other alternatives works and DOESN'T BRICK PHONES. WHY LET THIS CRAP STAY FOR PEOPLE LIKE THIS WHO SEE IT AS AN EASY METHOD AND JUMP AT IT UGH.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmcqueen:
if you'd done some research (not picking on you, just for future reference), you'd have found many a testimony that visionary should not be used on the vision--oh, the irony--to obtain permanent root. visionary temp root is fine, but its perm root is dangerous to our phones.

are you able to boot into recovery? do you have a custom recovery (ie clockworkmod) installed? do you have the engineering hboot installed?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AroundTheWorld:

Not always but a lot of people it does.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swee08315:
Don't tell them that you tried to root your phone, just tell them it did it on it's own.

sure, they'll probably find out once they've got it, but by then they'll probably just fix it. htc sometimes fixes rooted phones if the they belive the problem was something else.

for example (this has actually happened):

lets say your phones screen stopped working, but it was rooted. the root has nothing to do with the screen, so they'll fix it, but when the phone was returned to the customer it was no longer rooted.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paulwoods1114:
Is sending my phone to HTC my only option because i can still boot into to recovery and get into the bootloader and all that. i just want to know that HTC is my last resort
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chinam4n:
If your bootloader says S-ON, and your recovery is not CWM then you're good to go. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmobile user:
Visionary works for exactly what it is supposed to do. Temp root. Then you can achieve perm root with the various methods depending on your build #. It perm roots on earlier phones - so I hear, as well. The OP hit the perm root button without s-off. Easier to find warnings about that could be instructive, but the mods can't take the visionary instructionals off the forum. ABD is not exactly a friend to the G2. There are a number of things the OP can try. If they really release the update - that should do it. Thread-rom manager,rom backup, and red exclamation point. Etc.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paulwoods1114:
My bootloader says S-ON
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] master.peterm:
yea warranty will cover it... just dont mention root or anyting.... it did it by itself you hear me (personal experience.... one of the first to brick using visionary....)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsteven77x:
Actually they can take them off the forums, and even if that was true, they can close the threads and let them fall into oblivion. They do all of xda a gigantic disservice by being so irresponsible and letting that junk linger so noobs can brick there phone within the freaking day of buying it. Its outrageous and I'm not gonna listen to any other arguement.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chinam4n:
+1

There's a perfectly good guide on XDA Wiki for permrooting the G2, and other sub forums on XDA for each device to root. There's no need for Visionary at this point. There will always be alternative ways to root phones.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmobile user:
Well,

I was using the word "can't" for emphasis. I suppose in some ways "don't" would have been more accurate. Let me try again. Feel free not to listen. I will always be grateful to Modaco. Here's why: I had a G1 (gf has it now -running froyo at the moment), TouchPro 2 (my Dad is using it now - so not that modified, but it was); I finally get a G2 and I can't do anything with it. I sat there for 24 hours trying to root it before I called 1 of the 2 guys in Austin on Craigslist offering flashing/rooting/unlocking services. Sat with him for 12 hours. On the plus side he did show me how to set up ABD. On the other hand lot of time with an irate stranger who won't even take the money he is so upset with himself.

Finally figured out if you use the root no abd required method twice (on everything but the G2s with Gingerbread) you can sneak by barely and downgrade etc. Visionary provided the temp root.

I wasn't lucky enough to get a G2 on the first day. I was in the same boat as the folks with Gingerbread. Thought I had waited too long. My parting words from the professional flashers place. But Visionary and the automated scripts for Gfree saved me. Should the perm root button contain a warning that you need s-off first? Sure. But developers have little incentive to update when criticism is so harsh. I have a feeling every root method is indebted to Visionary. If I had a "ginger" G2 I would be praying they were working on a fix.

Interesting. It's nothing too noticeable, but I really hope it gets addressed in an OTA update. This and the unresponsive screen/quick swiping issue need to get addressed fast.
[HTC Sensation] mike21pr:
only thing that comes to mind is the RAM difference compared to the EVO

1024 > 768
[HTC Sensation] nirvana2506:
I think the sensation is far from a final device..IMO it is a beta device and I hate htc for that
[HTC Sensation] cdstewart:
Well I have had zero issues thus far. Am I lucky or you unlucky?
[HTC Sensation] BonesRed:
Dunno about I but my Sensation has less lag than that, though it does take about 3 swipes to get my homescreens spinning. Also, I saw noticeable lag there on the EVO 3D especially towards the end of the Video.

The culprit is sense but the EVO 3D looks slightly more smoothe than on my phone.
[HTC Sensation] Squeaky369:
I've played with both devices in hand (I work for Sprint and we've got our demo unit in) and so far I haven't noticed a big difference.

There is a hell of a lot more bloatware on the Sensation then on the Evo 3D, so I'm hoping once we get root we can remove all the crap.

I only have about 110MB of RAM free on a fresh boot with nothing installed yet (so there is defiantly a lot of garbage installed).
[HTC Sensation] BonesRed:
Are you checking your free RAM from that stock "task" manager? If so it's very unreliable. You should manually from the Manage Apps screen.
[HTC Sensation] yourpassenger:
The spinning effect is just a pointless gimmick anyway. And honestly it looks like it spins way to easily on the Evo.
[HTC Sensation] nccu_eagles:
Sprint SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] NICEGYPT:
If they give u a final device this mean they are going to close the company and set drinking tea and coffee at their house :) This A,B business they will never make final device. this is just how it is.
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
I think this is totally a software issue. The only way it would be RAM is if the RAM was already maxed out and we know this happens even with 200 free.
[HTC Sensation] KillaHurtz:
Yeah I don't think its the ram either, people have said sense3.0 runs smoother on the MT4G which has the same ammount of ram. Even the PS3 only has 256mb RAM and its a beast for graphics. (yes even the seperate GPU is only 256mb)
[HTC Sensation] Squeaky369:
Both spots show right around the same amount of memory free in the RAM.
[HTC Sensation] Squeaky369:
And why do you think I work for Sprint and carry a T-Mobile phone...

Because I agree.
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
that's odd. mine always show 2 different.

task manager always show way less.

setting>app I get around 300mb free.

anyway, I dont' think it's a ram issue. perhaps it's because of bloatware on the phone?

I also think that Evo goes into the carousel mode too easily. it would drive me nuts if every time I wanted to change pages and I flick a little too hard and it goes into a carousel...
[HTC Sensation] alex6137:
It also seems to me that the Evo screen is more vibrant.
[HTC Sensation] xakarix84:
i think it's just brightness setting, and evo have the widget clock sun shine effect on...
[HTC Sensation] sdc77:
I'm sorry

I don't see ' unresponsive' or lagged in the video. It's just very slightly different.

Mine can take one swipe to spin it .. if I swipe quickly enough .. in fairness I can't imagine needing it to spin anyway.

Right I'm off to try and find something wrong with it..
[HTC Sensation] r3awak3n:
Its sense, I wouldn't be surprised if the difference of ram really mattered. I use launcher pro and my nexus one had absolutely 0 lag. The sensation has no lag on a fresh boot but 10 sexongs later has lag on the expose style feature. I can't wait to root this thing. All I want is vanilla android with the HTC unlock screen
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trebb:
Hey guys,

I've been having some keyboard issues for a while now and it's really starting to bug me. I'm currently on BAMF 2.1, but I've used various iterations of BAMF and I was even experiencing the same problem on CM7. Whenever I install a new ROM I do a complete wipe 3x and lately I haven't even been restoring data on my apps.

When typing, certain letters just don't work. It's really odd. I can sit there and tap tap tap away, and it may take like 6 taps to get a letter to work. At first I thought it was my screen, but I experience NO issues with the screen anywhere else but typing. The fact that what letters don't work often change (both in landscape AND portrait) also makes me think that it's not the screen.

I'm currently using Smart Keyboard Pro with a DX skin (had a DX before this and loved the keyboard), but I've even switched to the market version of the GB keyboard and experienced the same problem.

Edit: I forgot to mention that it doesn't always happen. I could go half a day with no issues, but then it pops up and it's pretty persistent.

Does anyone have any ideas? It's really starting to become a problem.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidGraphix:
I have experienced maybe something similar. Since I flashed gingerbread ( my keyboard sometimes locks up. There's usually a delay of 3 seconds before it picks up. I'm using swift but it has happened on swype and the stock keyboard.

Actually, YES!

go flash the worst kernel you can, for vibrant wait a hour, you can easily tell how good or bad battery life is.its not exact to the point and is very inaccurate, but it does giveyou a sense of how much it lasts.

Don't you try to troll me.

I'm one of the only trolls on vibrant section and I'll kick your vibrants bump on the back.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Isn't data and signal based with modems? Can't be sure, but after flashing this, flash a modem

[Vibrant Android Development] bearsfan85:
To a point your right, you can get a general "vibe" of how the Vibrant kernel will perform for battery (See what I did there? XD)

What you will get is a low end estimate of how it will perform.

As far as data is concerned check the settings, also what nightly are you on

[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
A) We don't need cleaning scripts anymore, Smasher implemented them into the flashing script in the zip.

B) Until I make new builds, the newest nightly won't work with this kernel. There was one little bitty change that I pulled in already, I just need to build and test. I only have a Captivate and am maintaining this kernel for four devices though, so it may take some time. Time being less than a week.

I have been on HL for a day now and have not had any issues. I do have a question...which is the better Kernel choice (all things equal) LL or HL or are they the same as chips listed below?

Low leakage chips are the best on the paper, needing less volts and heating less than others.

High leakage represents the majority of produced chips in our SGS.

[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
If you just rebuild Glitch for the Vibrant to have to latest source changes, even if you don't do anything else with the kernel, it would be awesome.

The latest V12 betas work perfect. No bugs of any sort. Only downgrade was a slightly poor OC (1.44Ghz -->1.3Ghz) when on the High leakage versions going from V12 beta 1 to beta 2 but other than that it was perfect.

Just rebuilding isnt near as simple as that, i am working when i can, but have four devices to support, so it takes time.
