Is the galaxy s line the only phones that have something like odin?... our phones are basicly unbrickable unless you mess with some mandatory stuff... like on vision kernel, I bricked but that's like the only way I've actually seen people brick, most of the other threads are just user error.

Hellz yeahz. Tapatalkin this right now. And about the sprint servicing, they voided my warranty for being rooted already a few months ago. Is this company policy? I thought it was.

Am I playing with fire

OK this is what I have done. Am I playing with fire by doing so. I used Odin 1.85 (have not tried the older versions with this method). I odined my stock EF02 tar with nothing checked but auto reboot and with no pit file selected. I held my breath and it worked fine. So to live on the edge I did the same thing again with the deodexed tar. Same results. So since I am pretty new to all of this I ask you all if I am asking for trouble by doing this? I also found that you can create a Odin3.ini in the same folder as odin and use parameters to controls the boxes. For example this unchecks everything but auto reboot. But as soon as you choose a pit file it automatically selects the repartition. This is what prompted me to give it a shot without the pit. There might be a parameter to disable that function but I have been unable to find it. Here is what my ini looks like. Let me know your thoughts.

[Option]

Title= Please Don't Crash

AutoReboot=1

[Epic 4G General] crawrj:
Here is another thought. I have the pit file in the same folder as Odin. I noticed in the message window is says Get PIT for mapping. Is it automatically detecting the pit file and using it?
[Epic 4G General] styles420:
I thought it was looking in the tar file, I remember a post starting that a full tar has the pit included... But I can't find the post, so maybe noobnl can back me up or correct me?
[Epic 4G General] crawrj:
I recall reading that also now that you mention it. That would explain it.
[Epic 4G General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
I am telling you 100%, that they only voided your warranty because most techs are inept. There is no corporate policy from Sprint, denying rooted phones from warranty. If you were voided, it was at the sole discretion of the tech and his fear of 1) a manager that wants to make his own policy to stay under exchange budgets, or 2) fear of chargeback. Which doesn't happen.

Qa at asurion, or the warranty center, will immediately reflash the phone for privacy concerns anyway. You were only voided, because you let them void it. The correctly placed complaint would have immediately resolved your issue.

Don't you know that dan at something email? ;)

I'm only saying it, because I have been on the other side and had to do EVERYTHING (within reason) that was asked of me by the right complaint. It's not yelling at the manager (or tech for that matter) because most of the time, they have the same pull as a salesman, and generally don't care, just want you out the door happy. The constant yelling and entitlement of most in my area, made me quit just a couple weeks ago..

You shoot the right email, and they will make sure you are taken care of.... ;)

Haven't you gotten a CSAT call? Sprint is pushing for high scores. That's not just a, "hey, I'm curious type of thing."

ok Guys my first post in General section lol

ok so here a Simple Tid-bit for those who want to permanently change there default wallpaper mainly when building a ROM

this bothered the heck out of me so i thought id share it lol usually the default wallpaper is located in system\framework\framework-res\res\drawable-hdpi

but for some reason they moved it to Drawable instead of Drawable-Hdpi

this is for the Latest GB leak

Nothing major or mind blowing but the wallpaper is Major in my eyes lol especially when its a custom rom:D

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QUIK_LS1:
I think I may have a problem... I flashed the MR2.5 radio successfully, flashed GingerRemix 2.1 and had everything working ok (except for drawer, phone, and personalize buttons doing opposite operations) and then I tried flashing the MatteHD theme. Now I'm stuck at the black "das BAMF the Baddest!" screen. I've pulled the battery and gotten into Hboot but I can't change the options and get into recovery. All it does is go into the update option (like when flashing a new radio). PLEASE HELP
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistersikee:
did you delete the radio PG05 file?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazyhtown:
How long was it on that screen? I've never tried that ROM before but I have been stuck on a loaf screen for over 20 mins before .. let it sit for a while imo
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QUIK_LS1:
Not after upgrading to MR2.5
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistersikee:
delete the file off your microsd and then boot the hboot and you should be able to go to recovery from there cause in hboot its gonna search for that file but once it cant find it, itll let you choose the option to go to clockwormod
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QUIK_LS1:
I'll try that. I'm gonna wait a few more minutes at this screen and see if it miraculously loads normally but I'm very doubtful it will. It does go through the initial bootup screen and a second screen/animation with no problems but at this third screen is where it is seemingly stuck. If it doesn't load I will definitely remove that radio .zip and attempt recovery again. Thanks a ton guys for your help. I'll keep you posted
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elliott35:
Or just rename it so you don't have to redownload later

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistersikee:
yeah you could always just remain it and stuff and yeah you should definatly try the renaming or deleting of the file to return to recovery. hope it works :)

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QUIK_LS1:

I renamed the radio file back to what it was and was able to get into recovery. I'm currently restoring a Nandroid backup so I should be back in business soon. HUGE relief. Thank you so much for the help. You guys are what makes this online community so incredible.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdompor:
I bet you just had to wait. I've had that same screen take 15 or 20 minutes to load after flashing a rom or kernel before.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biglipps66:
May have been the case possibly. I just wiped a few times and flashed dbamf 1.8 and it took about 10mins to boot or so I bet. Odd but I wasnt worried :p
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QUIK_LS1:
Waiting didn't do it... I left it at that screen for over 2 hours (thank God for the extended battery). It was worth a shot. I think the Matte HD theme was the culprit.

I'm in a similar situation:

Internet sharing from HTC TyTn II wm6.1 to android 2.3.1 iMiTo AM801 8" running Android Gingerbread 2.3.1.

From my experience Win7 simply doesn't really suit well to mobile devices. It wasn't designed bottom-up with touch input nor was it designed to conserve space and battery as much as a mobile OS is. Win8 on the other hand atleast has an UI specifically designed to support touch input well, we'll see then how/if it catches on.

I have played around with one of these at Staples. Believe me when I say to look to the A500 Android version instead. The W500 was slow, clunky and just overall a pain to use. Plus the A500 looks so much nicer.

Avoid W500 if you know whats good for you.

[Acer Iconia A500] Amdathlonuk:
Use a USB card reader, I have one that will read around 16 different cards and it's really compact.

Also a colleague has recently bought a W500 and brought it into work to compare it to my A500.

The W500 is just awful, horrible UI, pointless mouse, 3 hours battery, and none of the extras mine has (GPS...etc)

Stick with the A500 is my thoughts.

[Acer Iconia A500] eksasol:
If you want fullsize SDXC get the Toshiba Thrive. I owned it before and I think both devices are as good interchangably. I think the only reason I went with the Acer because at the time there were more custom roms and for LED flash to use as flash light.

Still, the next device that can run full linux distro with dual core and 6+ hours of battery life and I will depart with this Acer in a flash (internally installed, not work around like current methods). Microsoft and Apple absolutely don't want that. I don't think I will content with tablets with fans and heat vents and poor battery life though.
[Acer Iconia A500] peterya:
Acer Iconia W500

I have owned iphone 3gs, HD2, Samsung Galaxy tab phone version, and W500( three months). I am not a fan of Microsoft or Acer but I have to say W500 is a very usable W7 tablet. I have replaced the stock 32gb HD to 128gb and used it to do my office works, music, video, ebooks, and games. It can play blu-ray movie without issue and some first person shooting game at medium level.

For those people who complained the machine is slow, I agreed but that was if you run the machine the way Acer shipped to you. However, if you remove all the bloatwares and disable some window 7 features. Then, you have got youself a snappy, fully functional window machine.

I can run photoshop, coreldraw, excel, accounting and other full version Window softwares directly on this machine. I can watch DVD/blu-ray files or disc(external DVD drive) directly without converting and transfering. It is pretty much a regular labtop with all the ports you need but in modern tablet form.

I always thought w7 is not touch friendly but actually is good. Android or iOS's UI is very direct to the point as versus window7 indirect. However, w500 has shown it is possible to have the functionalities of a laptop in a tablet. You don't need to convert files or find work around ways to fit a specific machine.

W500's battery life is incomparable to Android or iOs deveices because the hardware requirements for Window7 is much higher than them. Yes, I wish W500 have a better battery life.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
There have been tablet form-factor Windows machines for over a decade, so I'd be pretty shocked if the W500 couldn't do all that stuff...

Windows on a tablet will be better when Windows 8 is released on tablets.

It will use less battery power and is designed with two interfaces, one for tablet and one for the PC.

I'm actually running the developers edition on one computer.

The start page is the apps page.

It even has two different IE explorers, one for tablets and one for the PC.

Since it is the developers edition there are things missing and also some things there that may not be there in the beta or final release.

Hi guys!

I'm an HTC user and a sense fan however i am very interested in SGS2 and thinking of buying it except that I'm a bit reluctant about the user interface and the overall user experience without the beautiful sense which in fact does make sense!

So i was just thinking if anyone thought of porting a Sensation ROM to the SGS2!

Imagine all that software beauty on this hardware beast! IMO it will be a fantastic combination!

So guys is that feasible?! Did somebody try it?!
