[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mustang302LX:
Had to come into work so no access to my computer till later tonight. I fixed my market issue by switching ROMs so I'll try this later. I originally downloaded the file to my phone but it was a zip file so I couldn't extract it. So I figured I'd extract on my computer and just transfer over but apparently that doesn't work lol. Thanks for putting up with my saeemingly idiodic questions!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
No problem, lol. Just make sure the line endings are in unix (\n) format.

Added around 300 or so more adservers to the list just now.

https://gist.github.com/543651c8d3bb7992f2be

Anyone who finds anymore, feel free to post and I will add them :)

That list is more geared towards mobile, but I also have a more desktop geared list without the added mobile ad servers if anyone is interested.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Absolute_Zero:
I would imagine you started with or imported all the ones from MVPS.org? Considering it's probably the most common used hosts file resource on the interwebz although mainly for desktops.

http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
Not that particular site, but same concept. I used http://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/ + ones ive added in the past 5 or so years. I'll do a sort -u on it and see if I have any missing though.

edit: that site seems to be having issues 503 error

My list for the desktop though:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrootz:
@yareally - Thanks for the kick ass host blocking, I have a question, How do I update host once a week. I mean, and I don't want copy and paste seems too much hassle for me.

Does the adfree app have ability add the url link to download from your website?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
Never used adfree. I just download the list as a file to my phone, then move it to /etc/hosts overwriting the current one and then set the permissions back to 644 and owner/group back to root.

However, that's a good question and I can make a little bash script you can run with terminal emulator or with an sl4a shortcut (http://code.google.com/p/android-scripting/) that will check to see if yours is outdated and then download and replace it for you. I'll post it here after I check that it works.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phoney6:
Looking forward to a script. Your file is the best I've tried!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
Thanks :)

Only thing holding me back from releasing the script is figuring out how to keep it hosted on github and also check to see if it's modified via the way they store stuff. Doing it in bash makes it a kind of tricky. It might be easier just to write a normal android app with java. Either that or say screw it and host it on my own and keep it in a bash script.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrootz:
@yareally- I am looking forward whatever you make a script automatic update the /etc/hosts and I tested using your hosts. I must tell you this is so best ever much much much better than using adfree app. I don't see any ads anywhere i surfed websites or free apps with ads. Keep it up :cool:

0.0.0.0 zone03.adicate.com

0.0.0.0 zone04.adicate.com

0.0.0.0 zone05.adicate.com

0.0.0.0 zone10.adicate.com

so i notice this listed in the gist mobile host file and there are some others similar to it. i am wondering is it necessary to have all those sites or can't you just use adicate.com?

thanks,

shasta

:cool:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
Good question and yes, it's actually necessary to :). The host file is pretty dumb and explicit and treats things like www.hostname.com as a different site than hostname.com. It also wont do wildcards. If you're worried about slow loading times, you don't have to worry. Pretty sure the host file gets cached somewhat on your system.

My rom is Revolution HD 5.1.11. Is there any solution beside reboot ? :mad::mad::mad:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndriodLover:
Unmount and mount sdcard.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hkho323:
So complicated!!!! Any solution ?????
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo XL:
Buy a new DHD - that would be an easier solution.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndriodLover:
It will take you max 10secs.

1. Setting

2. Sd & phone storage

3. Hit unmount, once unmounted, hit mount.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
Took me closer to 15 seconds, or if you include the time to find the phone about 2 minutes.

"Rescan Media" will force a rescan.

Easier and "cleaner" than remounting the sdcard. It's free.

I have a broken android phone, basically cracked screen. Any possible where to retrieve all sms from it? Obviously its stored on internal memory. It was using froyo rom.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dastin1015:
Are you rooted? If you are download Titanium Backup and backup the Dialer Storage app. That apps holds your SMS' and APN info. Most likely will show up green and say SMS at the beginning of the name of the app.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ChadZ:
Dude, the screen is cracked like I said, my mistake for not being clear....its cracked enough, there is no display at all
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] crazy25000:
If you have cwm recovery, use button combo to put it in recovery.

Use adb and connect to it and you can copy everything to your computer.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ChadZ:
I don't know what adb is and how to use it, but I would truly appreciate steps, I'm a quick learner. The screen is destroyed, no display at all.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] crazy25000:
Do you have a rom installed? Do you have cwm recovery?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ChadZ:
Yes, community rom before it broke
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] crazy25000:

Hi there

i have Hboot 0.80 And I want to S-OFF my phone!

alpharevx for HBOOT 1.01

what do i do?

Thanks all
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eddster3000:
It took me ages but probably because I took the long way round.

I think I formatted my SD card and made as gold card, then used the RUU tool in the Arabic RUU thread below this one.

That worked for me after a day of trial and error. I guess there is a quicker way. Search the forums I know alot of rooting guides have popped up since Alpha-Rev release.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asz18:
Just go to Unrevoked.com, download their app and S-OFF+ROOT+Recovery install on your phone. HBOOT 0.80 is rootable, because it's the old version. You don't need Alpharev X.

Regards
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
It will not give S-OFF. Just a Custom Recovery and root. If you want S-OFF, you will have to go for AlphaRev X.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dikamilo:
I did it by flashing RUU with Froyo (this update HBOOT) and next, I used alpharevx.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohammadN:
Thanks a lot

I'll download the froyo RUU and then write my result here.

try that it works for me...just select the applicable RUU to your region then your S-OFF!!!

I got HBOOT 1.02 after running RUU but when I run alpharevx it still got s-off.

Don't forget to install and uninstall HTC Sync so you won't encounter driver issues.

Then when your already s-off follow the instructions on the link below then that's it you got full control!!!

Nice find!
[Droid Incredible Accessories] jayochs:
awesome find, man! i had the verizon silicone case for this thing since i got it back last summer and it's starting to bend a bit and dust gets in there so shes getting old...just ordered this, 3.99 with tax and free 2 day shipping! woot
[Droid Incredible Accessories] KennyJive:
Just got mine in the mail today. It. Is. Awesome.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] thaibruin:
I just got mine today too. It's not bad... well, kinda great for only $4 shipped. :) But I'm too used to carrying around my dinc naked. It just feels too big/heavy with the cover on. But I'll use it on extended trips.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] jayochs:
i use the silicone cases now already so i'm used to a case...only thing i don't like is all the red accenting on the front...makes it look cheap, meh.

just put mine on..seems pretty cool and sturdy! only thing that sucks is the volume buttons and power button are really hard to push now haha i hope they wear in a bit :-\

heres mine!
[Droid Incredible Accessories] thaibruin:
Yea. that was the other thing too. I had to JAM my finger on the power button just to turn it on.

[Droid Incredible Accessories] liquidicem:
Nice find! Ordering one up now!
[Droid Incredible Accessories] solarpolitiks:
How hard would it be to cut out a spot for the extended battery in one of these cases? I was thinking of buying two more to mess with this so I can protect the sides of the phone while still using my extended battery.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] liquidicem:
I'm not sure about this specific case, but the hard cases are also on sale and those are really easy to cut the back out of.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] solarpolitiks:
This case went up to 5 bucks now along with the single color snap on case. Still a great deal with the free 2 day shipping. The hard gradient case is now 3 bucks and so is the clear snap on case.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] nrvous1:
Not hard at all if you have a dremel with a cutting wheel and some sanding bits. I've read on here and have seen a couple of hard cases dremeled out and sanded down to be used with the extended battery. Keep in mind that the cases I have seem are for the vzm 2150 battery. If you have a 3500, I'm not sure how the case will look or how hard it would be to cut up. Post some pics if you decide to cut one of these cases. I will probably order a couple myself and cut one to fit my 2150.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] jayochs:
holy hell, everyone was right about how easy the back of this thing scratches.....theres toooons of scratches already and i haven't even had it 5 days yet lol pretty crazy.

[Droid Incredible Accessories] carngeX:
Just got mine in today. Pretty nice so far. Only thing I don't like is like the other said, the power button and volume buttons are hard to press. Might just take some wearing in.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] jayochs:
eh mine never wore in, the red around it became obnoxious and annoying to look at, and the back scratched like a *****. i already took that thing off and put my old silicone case back on
[Droid Incredible Accessories] nrvous1:
Great...lol. Fedex came by today and I missed the delivery. Almost makes me not want to go pick it up.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] jayochs:
haha, eh its only 4 bucks. def worth getting it. i loved it at the start, then gradually got sick of it lol
[Droid Incredible Accessories] nrvous1:
Well, I left the Fedex noticed signed at my doorstep this morning and when I came home after work the case was at my door step.

I can see how you got tired of the red so fast and you're right, its only $4 so I won't mind cutting it up to fit my 2150.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] jayochs:
if i could figure out how, i'd put a protective coating on the back, and then paint that red black and i'd prob love it lol
[Droid Incredible Accessories] AJGO23:
Am I the only one that actually likes the red? Lol But yea I agree that the back scratches like a *****. It seems that it gets scratches if you're just looking at it.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] jayochs:
lol for me, it's TOO much red..i love the little red accents on the phone, like the camera and the ear piece..but the entire outline in red makes it look like a little kids toy, IMO.

plus i HATE the fact it covered up the red accent on the camera...that's such a distinct feature of the Inc and i love showing it off haha
[Droid Incredible Accessories] jumpoff609:
I enjoyed my case for a while but recently retired it I just got a red battery cover and decided no case is better for now
[Droid Incredible Accessories] jimlange:
I don't mind the red so far, but there are a few black slab phones in my family, so it is nice to be able to identify mine.

I solved the issue of scratches by sanding the back of the case with 800-grit wet/dry sandpaper and a sanding block. The outermost surface of my case is now mat black and new scratches (if any) aren't visible! I actually like the new look.

The power button did soften up a bit, but I actually prefer the firmer press since my previous case (gloss silicone) kept turning my phone on every time I dropped it into my pocket. In theory, you could make the button more sensitive by gluing in a sliver of plastic (or a segment of a flat toothpick) under the button.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] UgXvibe:
Case is good, fits snug.. the scratches on the back are ridiculous considering how awesome this thing looked new. Better that case than the phone.. and isn't that the whole point? :)

The Red outline is OK, but I can definitively differentiate my phone from every other one out there..

I do kinda miss my ElCheapo black silicone case from HandHeld Items because it was just tacky enough to not slide all over the damn place when I set it down. Like in the car on the car seat.. cornering and braking = phone on floor.. lol
