Hello everyone!

I've been using my HTC Legend for a while now and I was quite happy with it, except performance breaking down several times. So lately I decided to root the phone and throw some custom ROM on it, preferably CM7. Well, I am a little ashamed to confess, that it hasn't just worked out yet, but according to several postings my Goldcard seems to be the problem.

Anyway, I came up with the idea of buying myself a new droid. The criteria is easy in fact. It should have a bigger screen than the Legend and sunlight legibility should be good (oh yeah, that was another issue with my legend). And it should be fast and pretty. Last but definitly not least: Custom ROM Support is important!

Until now I've made a choice for a few phones I like.

-Sony Ericsson Xperia NEO

-Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc

-LG p970 Optimus Black

-Samsung Galaxy S 9000

What phones do you think match my criteria best? Have you got any other propositions in the same price range?

Hi there,

I want to disable the ringtone volume function on the hardware keys of my Desire.

Is there any way, any app or any hack to make this possible?

The Keys just should vulume up phone Calls & Music, not my ringtones...

I´m using last stable Cyanogen, does it has the possibility to configure it?

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilesh2008:
I have just bought an Atrix. It’s is not associated with nay carrier at all.

Will I be able to unlock the Boot loader?

If I’m not able to unlock the boot loader as it is can I make the phone think it is an AT&T phone so I can then get there gingerbread update and unlock the boot loader?

I’m a bit of a n00b at this so thanks in advance.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sinful Animosity:
What software version are you at? 1.8.3? 2.1.1? What country did you purchase it from?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NFHimself:
Can you flash an ATT sbf? Unless it's an ATT phone or some sort of exception like a dev phone, you more than likely will just get a security exception when you try to flash it. If you can, then you can have the ATT signed version of the bootloader, from there you can unlock it. The unlock sbf will just give you a security exception otherwise, it only works with the ATT signed bootloader.

Cheers!

Mate, I think you will need to have some time to read stickies in the threads related to HSPL, RADIO, Task 29, CWM, cLK, Nandroid.

But, I can briefly answer your question as follow:

1. Yes. You can erase/replace your Winmo with NANDROID. Or if you want to keep your Winmo, you can have dual OS, using SD ANdroid method.

2. Steps:

a. Install SPL "2.08.HSPL" (Read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=609477 )

b. Flash Radio 2.15.xx (Read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=681317 and this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611787 )

c. Do Task 29 (Read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=644781 )

d. Install Magldr.

e. Flash CWM (Clock Recovery Mode)

f. Flash NANDROID rom.

Read also this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905841 and this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1090783

The easy way would be using SD ANdroid method, read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=931192

Hey guys,

Just recenty brought the HTC Sensation and i love it. But i seem to have a problem with the apps.

I have put some game apps on the font screen and all is fine, but as soon as i turn off the phone (power completely down) and turn back on the apps are there but the picture is the default andriod green and white picture.

I delete the shortcut, and re-do the shortcut and picture for the app comes up fine, but as soon as you restart i lose it again?

anyone have any ideas?

[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
you need to "reload" sense

you can do this easily by changing the skin to any other, then revert to the one you like, and the icons will return to normal

this appears to be a sense 3.0 issue that hopefull is resolved with an update, as it bugs me too :P

im seeing atleast 2 ginger roms being released every day......whats the point of ppl just going to crazy development mode and releasing a variant of stock ginger rom...

but the point is clearly that most of us will use only miks cm7 or andy's cm7 or noejn's or ciaox(almost forgot xD) along with franco's kernel

:confused::confused::confused::confused::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mprou:
I should also add, what's up with billions new threads asking/requesting/announcing for the same things again and again and again. It's becoming tiresome tracking the usefull info around here
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kaliberx:
Full Ack, it's better to have some devs helping the 2-4 Maindev's and having 2-4 very stable Roms and Kernels instead of having 1000 of Roms and Kernels which are crap.

These 2-4 Roms and 1-2 Kernels (or 2-4) are very stable, and People can change the Launcher if they dont like the Preinstalled Stuff.

Sorry, that are just my 2 Cents.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] lekhwani:
Its just started and you are telling it to stop. We wont stop until number crosses the froyo roms. I believe we have more than 20 froyo roms. So until its 20, dont complain.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] naturist:
Well said :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kaliberx:
And where is the Sense in having 20+ Roms, where are the differences just minimal ? (Like Cosmetic : Launcher etc).

Imho : Senseless

Newbies are loosing the oversight, if there is too much. Which goes to Noob Questions like : Which Rom ist the Best, my Rom crashed why ? etc blahblah. Aka a flood of Stuff, many dont like.

Again, i dont have nothing against new Devs....but as in Companies or OS-Projects : Why dont bundle the Power of them into just some Projects (If the Maindevs likes to have help).
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alexlacra:
i think that mik and andy should work toghether on a custom rom. imagine that :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mprou:
The difference is that most of those 20 froyo roms, each one was making a step further into p500 custom rom making. Development was growing back then. Just a few of the old...void/devoid, megatron, LOL, nessy, Light etc. Today custom development has come to a peak. If someone can make something new or different from what our current devs can do then bring it on. But all I can see is clones nothing more

Yeah there must be development of gb Roms as this will lead to a great rom.

Proud owner of lg optimus one
[Optimus One, P500, V General] CtrlU:
+1

Yes!! the problem lies in clones being made, and no new ideas or innovations...

I support new ROMS being developed, but it only makes sense if it brings something new and exciting with it, after all ROM devs can have the top kernels out here in it and focus on customizing and speeding up there roms, while adding new features and ideas. Its just a waste of time and effort if it just uses gimmicky themes and mods
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shotgun32:
This thread is true. It will never be better than mik and andy gb rom anyway
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Roqu3:
So that means nobody should make another one? or another kernel? everyone must go to andy's thread or franco's thread to write"yay!" "wow!"?

Personal opinion: mik's great but buggy for daily use, andy´s buggy and franco kernel is the buggiest ever
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Somyab:
Nope franco kernel will be nt buggiest ever..bcoz its the best..

-1 for u
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shotgun32:
yup, -1 for you too haha
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mprou:
well you could also write "yeehaa!" "wooh00" "bring it daddy" and other lovely stuff:p

Besides joking...we don't need clones.

If you can make something new (i'm not saying better), something different or innovative, for example franco has customized the kernel, ciaox made openscript, mik ported CM etc etc then we will all be very glad to have it.

Thats why is called "Development". Unfortunately not anyone can do it. So let those who know how to do it, to do it properly.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ziaasp:
Haha cool. I wish I could be of some help
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fernando1sg:

[Eee Pad Transformer General] kimi_Q:
ASUS E PAD Transformer TF101 battery & charging query

I found some people query about TF101 battery & charging , so summary some info to all TF101 owner. :)

Q.

While charging the tablet and docking with adapter, do both get power together?

A.

The adapter will charge the tablet first and then the dock.

When the docked tablet is unplugged with adapter, the dock will provide the power to maintain the tablet for 100% until the dock hits 3%.

Q.

How could we check the information regarding status of battery in TF101?

A.

Go to Settings>> About Tablet>> Status, then you will see some information regarding the status of battery.

Q.

What is the battery life of Eee-Pad?

A.

9.5 hrs of Tablet only/ 16 hrs of docked tablet.

Moreover, the dock will provide the power to maintain the tablet for 100% until the dock hits 3%.

There are some power will be consumed during the power transportation, so the total amount will be not 16 hrs in this situation.

Q.

Could Eee-Pad transformer be charged via USB with computer?

A.

The voltage which be needed for Eee-Pad is 15V,1.2A.

We strongly recommend customers use official exclusive adapter for charging, because the computer can’t provide enough power to Eee-Pad in normal situation.

Thanks:p

first problem was that it had patched the file and could not put it back in the apk

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karto2k:
I hope this subject hasn't been asked/answered, I couldn't find any references.

When I use CWM & flash TNTLite or Vanilla Roms, when I used the file manager I could see the exact same file tree (folders) as when within CWM (CWM Root > Install zip from SDCard > Choose zip from SDCard), but when I flash CM7 (which is the one I want to use) its like it creates a whole new partition & file structure.

I cannot see or even access the other file directory from the tab, but I can still see it in CWM and if I reflash tnt I have full access to it.

My biggest concern is that while running the CM7 is that this 'hidden' tree is consuming a rather LARGE amount of the internal memory

I really appreciate any thoughts or input, thanks.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] varunj:
Hi guys,

I have had an Atrix since a few months, and everything has been working fine. However, since the last few days when I connect the phone to my computer over USB, the external 16 Gig SD card shows up as a drive, but when I click on the other drive which is supposed to be the internal SD card, it says "Please insert a disk into Removable Disk (D:)" in Windows.

Phone: Sim-unlocked AT&T Atrix, rooted, Gingerblur 4.5

Computer: Windows 7 (x64) with drivers installed

It has worked many many times in the past, and I haven't made any recent changes to the phone which are related to this in any way.

I have tried:

1. Changing USB connection mode between all 4 options, include USB Mass Storage

2. Restarting the computer

3. Restarting the phone

4. Switching on/off USB Debugging mode

5. Manually unmounting the "Settings" -> "SD card & phone storage settings" -> "Unmount internal phone storage"

6. Reinstalling the drivers - got it from here because the gitbrew link seems down

In fact I am able to view both /sdcard and /sdcard-ext using Root Explorer on the phone, so I don't think the internal memory is corrupt in anyway.

I've searched both xda and atrixforums, but not found a working answer to it.

Any suggestions? This is very frustrating.

Varun

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
This may seem a silly question, but you don't mention doing it. Did you mount the internal sdcard after you unmounted it? Did you unmount while connected to your computer or when not connected?

Were you accessing your internal sdcard with any apps, or did you have it open in root explorer for example when you connected it to your computer? This can mess up the umounting procedure when you plug into USB.

Have you tried on another computer?

Hey,

since it's obviously better to keep your cam(phone) relatively still while taking a picture or filming a movie i´ve been looking for a tripod(adapter) for the O3D (especially for 3D filming).

The O3D is 6.8cm wide and 12.9cm high.

So far i've found two solutions that are aimed at smartphones:

Hama Mini Tripod (don't know how far this can be extended)

Pedco Cellpod (Adapter) / Pedco Cellpod (Tripod)

I have a good tripod so i do prefer the Pedco Adapter, but i'm wondering if the dual-lens setup might be a problem.

(€: i have seen this one used with a samsung galaxy s which is 6.4cm wide, but the screw on top had room left, so the O3D SHOULD fit)

Do you guys know any other solutions?

[HTC Desire S] stonedandhappy:
I suppose it all depends on how dirty/greasy your fingers are.

I also suspect that the smudge free claim is in regards to your screen and no the screen guard.

Regardless of how clean your hands are there will always be some amount of natural oils present so personally I think that their claim of the screen guard being smudge free is BS.

Yep, as I thought.
