[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
Sorry to tell you but the cell phone companies have a fiduciary responsibility to their customers to provide a service to their customer. When they provide a device to that customer that have a responsibility to provide a quality device that the customer can reasonably expect to receive adequate service on that device. So yes the cell phone company is culpable when it is a device that they provided. Of course that does not apply to unlocked devices because those are not devices that they support. The reason they have to let you out of your contract if they cannot get you a functional device is for that very reason. They have a responsibility to provide a service. Providing that service goes further than just having cell towers to connect to. It also includes the medium which you utilize those signals with. They have a responsibility to ensure that you are provided with quality products. If they cannot do that then they have failed to uphold their end of the contract which is what allows you to be able to terminate it without penalty.

That was a great post. I wouldn't waste my time though with any	T-Mobile employee that defended their handling of the G2X.

How about 3 months consistent.

ITS ALL WONKY!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Adam7986:
Ok so since logic doesn't seem to work, so I will give you a concrete example as to why I KNOW my argument is correct. If you go buy a new G-Slate today on contract with a data plan, and 15 days later a defect appears, T-Mobile does not process these exchanges, they are processed directly by the manufacturer. In this example, T-Mobile has exercised it's right to make you contact the manufacturer for the processing of your warranty. This is the same with the Galaxy Tab and the Dell Mini 10.

The only device replacement contract T-Mobile is required to uphold is through the buyers remorse terms, meaning we promise not to sell you a unit that is damaged or is known to be defective and even then the carrier is only required to replace it with the same model of the unit sold. After that period your device is only guaranteed by the manufacturer, we as the carrier are nice enough to not make you go through the 4-6 week process that the manufacturer requires to replace your device and we handle that for you and get you a replacement asap.

G2X/Sensation

First off I would like to say thank you to the starter of this thread. I just got a call back from corporate at T-Mobile and after speaking with the guy, explaining my frustrations with him, keeping a level head about things, he agreed to send me a Sensation. He even sent it express mail so i'd get it within 2-3 days. This just happened so I encourage anyone that is really unhappy with this phone to call corporate and express your frustrations and they will comply.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
No problem. I'm glad everything worked out for you. That was pretty much what I was trying to accomplish with this thread, help people to come to an amicable resolution with their G2X.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AriaNoob:
Did they allow you to keep the g2x? :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] x_rev_0:
I was told by T-Mobile that it is a known issue with the G2x and that regardless of how many phones I get it will still be an issue. They also said to talk to LG. When I talked to LG they said that there is no known issue and that if I was just returning the phone due to back light bleeding then it was something they wouldn't warranty based on it not affecting performance. Mind you it isn't just back light bleeding I'm complaining about, but they have been way confused about multiple issues so I simplified it to the screen. Well back to T-Mobile and they told me they wouldn't authorize any more returns because it would be the same issue because LG hasn't come up with a solution. They also wouldn't refund me the cost of the phone, but also offered me the new contract price of the Sensation if I signed a new contract. They did try to get me to select a Samsung 4g or a My Touch 4g as opposed to getting another G2x. I don't think that offering me a Samsung 4g or a My Touch 4g because you drop the price on a 2 month old phone with problems is an amicable solution. Also because I don't take the alternative phone solution they told me they won't send me another refurb. Well T-Mobile I'll just file a BBB claim and you can deal with them. I really want to like this phone, but there are too many issues at this point to like the phone. Maybe if enough people complain we will eventually get a resolution. Cheers on making a thread about this.

Hi there!

First of all, sorry for my bad english! :)

Ok, here is the business: I would like to cook a new Desire HD Froyo Sense ROM from scratch but I don't know exactly how can I do :p

For the moment, I have understood how to and have successfully compiled a cLK build (with customized partitions sizes)

I've downloaded the last Desire HD Froyo version and extracted all necessary .img

Now, I've installed Ubuntu in order to extract all content of system.img :D

But now, I'm lost :D

I think for EU version, a squashfsed ROM should be good to keep all the content in the NAND of the device.

For the kernel, I don't have the skill to rebuild a new one and RAFpigna's kernel 1.9 OC should be good.

Maybe can we add some other stuff like old lib light in order to have LED notifications and backlighting of hardware keys.

Submit all your ideas ;)

Thanks to all can help me!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] john_matrix:
Okay,

In order to extract files from system.img, we can't use unyaffs because yaffs is no more used (Segmentation Fault when trying to unyaffs).

Because ext4 is now the file format.

So, we need to "loopmount" system.img as "disk" with these commands :

*You need to be in the directory that contain system.img
[Nook Color General] funkymonk101:
Hi All,

Rooting the nook touch is very easy, much easier than most android phones I've rooted. However, getting it to be a functional tablet requires hunting down a pair of (freeware) APKs, which I had some trouble finding at first. So here they are, hopefully saving others some time. They should be installed via adb. Attached are:

Zeam: Lightweight launcher/homescreen app. For preferences, I recommend disabling "elastic scrolling" and "scroll wallpaper", increasing the rows/columns of icons, and setting the dock background to solid black.

Softkeys: This gives you an on screen button providing access to home/menu/back keys. Without this, once you enter the B&N software (home/library/reader), there is no way to go back to Zeam or other apps (if this happens before you install SoftKeys, just reboot to get back to Zeam). You will need to install su and superuser for this to work (reboot once when done). You can drag the on screen button anywhere you want, but I suggest making it small and putting it in the extreme lower left, where it does not block reading. Set the virtual home button action to launch Zeam.

Everything else you need should be in the Amazon App Store, although you need to enable non-market installs for it to work. Some other recommended apps are Opera Mobile, Pulse (disable flash and all animations), and Kindle.

Enjoy your new eInk android tablet!

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NthZ:
Im trying to downgrade my Desire Z. Using this code:

adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp
adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell

When i type:

adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp

I get this message:

cannot stat 'psneuter': No such file or directory

I then tried to push the same file if i added .txt at the end of psneuter.

This still did not work.

I then typed cd [directory] and tried it (without .txt) and it still did not work.

I then tried it with .txt and it works.

So i had to cd the directory and then add the file extension? Guessing this isn't normal, but i could deal with it.

However when i got to the third line, i don't know the file extension of misc_version, so i was unable to continue. Can anyone shed some light please? What am i doing wrong or what haven't i done?

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OriginalGabriel:
Sounds like you didn't set your path; either set a path to adb or make sure all the files are in the same directory of adb and run the commands from that directory
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NthZ:
i thought i did set a path though. and it doesn't explain why i need to add the file extension...or is that normal?

can you remind me how to set a path please? i went to computer and path>edit then added the directory of platform-tools and tools to the list. is that all thats needed? where should i save the files such as psneuter?

thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonu42:
All I do is rip out the needed adb files and put them in a folder on my dekstop. Then you can push the files you need to your device.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OriginalGabriel:
Sounds like you added the path correctly; if you did, you should be able to run adb from anywhere. It doesn't matter where the files are on your computer, what matters is that you're running the commands from that folder.

For example, if all the files are in C:\root_files then when you open up a command prompt, you need to type 'cd C:\root_files', hit enter and then run the adb commands from there.

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nipqer:
The 2.2.1 is android version, not sense version.

You need to downgrade to 1.34 sense version, which is also running 2.2 I think.

i solved the above problem but now have a new problem.

After i typed "adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter"

to try and get temporary root, i got this message: /data/local/tmp/psneuter: permission denied

I googled about a bit and tried another command:

C:\Root_Files>adb shell

adb server is out of date. killing...

* daemon started successfully *

$ cd /data/local/tmp

cd /data/local/tmp

$ chmod 0755 psneuter

chmod 0755 psneuter

$ ./psneuter

./psneuter

property service neutered.

killing adbd. (should restart in a second or two)

Then tried adb shell again.

It granted me root access, but i figured i'd try and stick to the tutorial i was on.

so i went back and typed adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter again, and now i get this message:

mmap() failed. Operation not permitted

however if i typed "adb shell" i get #.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmayling:
Hello, I have successfully rooted my HTC Desire running android 2.2 with HBOOT V 0.93.0001 using the Unrevoked method. I Installed ROM Manager and installed ClockWorkMod V 2.5.0.7. I also made a backup.

The purpose was to install a custom ROM, in order to get rid of the Orange bloatware that is on the phone, as well as trying something new.

However whenever I try to instal any ROMS I get an error (Status 7 - installation aborted.)

I then updated the Radio to radio 5.10.05.30 and tried again, same error.

I've tried Cyanogenmod 7, as well as the Oxygen ROM and both aren't working.

I have spent most of today trying to get it to work, and googled alot however I just can't fix this error

Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meemo23:
you have to do a full wipe data and cache then go to advanced and erase dalvik cache. After all the above you can now install new rom. And if your trying to install new gingerbread you must s off your phone and then update the recovery to the latest one. which i believe is 3.2.0.2 i dunno something like that
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmayling:
When I do a factory reset it just says E: Can't find MISC

No app2sd partition found.

E:cant mount cache:recovery/log

when I select wipe Dalvik cache the screen just flickers and appears to do nothing...

Can anything else possibly go wrong?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
So your hardwarerevision is pvt4. You cannot use clockworkmod recovery and still less rom manager with this one. Download amonra recovery, integrate it in unrevoked (file>custom recovery>choose downloaded amonra recovery) and run unrevoked (like last time) again.

No warranty for any damage.

And a real good advice: Never use rom manager, it's a horrible software which mostly causes heavy and horrible problems!!! Run all operations directly in recovery instead.

Thanks so much!!!!

Yes, there are known issues, especially the one you had, which is imho the most important and worst one, because you cannot flash anything.

Hi,

I have some issues with my phone and want to send it to after sale service.

As I have flashed it several times I wanted to reset the samsung counter by using the USB JIG but unfortunately it doesn't work and nothing happen when inserted to the phone.

I confirm that the USB JIG works perfectly, tested on Galaxy S and the phone enters the download mode as soon as it is plugged in.

Any idea? or maybe the one for galaxy S2 is different ?

Perhaps the jig is not working and you may need to get a new one. Might not be giving the right ohms.

Or you might be doing it wrong. Are you powering the phone right down and then inserting the jig? I have heard of some trying to it with the phone turned on or while it is already in download mode which is not the correct way and thought I'd mention it in case.
