[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarheel23:
UPDATE:

So I have obviously done some more troubleshooting on this, and I may have something to make sense of.

Since I flashed the GB MR2 radio and ThunderstickGB rom using the kernal provided with it. After bootup, I again had the reboot issues everytime the screen timed out or was locked. Just like before, It would reboot everytime unless the screen was kept on or plugged in to a charger.

I flashed back to the original Froyo radio just to see if that would make a change. Of course, I had no signal, but it would at least tell me if it were the newer MR2 or MR2.5 radios giving me fits. Even with the original radio, it still gave me the same reboots on screen timeout or locked.

So, I started over and this is what finally worked:

Flashed MR2 radio and ThunderstickGB rom again. This time, I flashed the stock GB kernal, instead of using a modified one. Bingo.... no reboots at all.

My feeling is that for some reason, some of the Kernals are undervolting the unit to a point that it shuts off or reboots. I am completely technically illiterate when it comes to the inner workings of Kernals and such, but the one common demoninator between my working Froyo and GB roms was that there was no Governor or Speed Tweak controlling the processor other than what comes in stock form.

Dont you have a backup of a rom after you got root on it???

Pull it out there ;)

although you might have too perform: "unyaffs system.img"

unyaffs
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] earlyberd:
I don't have a system.img file, I just have system.ext4 from one of the rooted ROMs repackaged for CWM, and a blob file from the stock Asus ROM.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] stuntdouble:
If you followed the guides to install a custom animation, they tell you how to remove the one you flashed so you have the original back. Unless you flashed a custom rom with it pre-packaged I suppose. You could always flash a stock rom and rip it using ADB though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] earlyberd:
Yeah, I flashed straight to a custom ROM without grabbing a backup of the stock animation. I guess I'll nandroid and pull from a stock ROM through adb.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] baseballfanz:
down load the stock rom, extract bootanimation.zip from system/media

push it to system/media or data/local

you could also use root explorer to move the file to the proper location
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] NeoStuey:

Here you go, though I'd take the excellent Transformer boot animation over stock any day.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] earlyberd:
Thanks. At this point I've already gone and flashed a stock ROM to pull it myself, but this will help other users that also want the stock boot animation.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] baseballfanz:
you didn't have to actually flash the rom, just down load and extract.:D
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] earlyberd:
With what tool? It's not like Asus was kind enough to bundle it all in a convenient zip file. Extracting the stock update zip file leaves you with a big file simply named "blob". How the heck do I open that? And if I use a rooted version of the ROM for CWM, I get stuck with a .ext4 file instead. Neither of the two files are compatible with standard extraction tools like 7zip, so enlighten me as to how I would open them.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ineptone:
Hey guys,

I was unable to find a well explained, and simple, answer to my question anywhere: how do I restore a GSM Desire (Telus) to stock 2.1 from latest DevNull 1.0.3 ROM? Having flashed a few custom ROM's, and deciding I like the stock Sense UI best, I was hoping someone could explain, in noob terminology, how to perform this procedure. Any help would be greatly appreciated and a donation considered for quick resolution. Thanks in advance.

Android version 2.3.4

Baseband version 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27

Kernel version 2.6.35.13-stable

Build number GRJ22
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Have a look through the Desire Index an there is a bit called RUU. You can just run that.

You can also go through the rom list and pick a rom that is based on HTC Sense since you prefer that. You would still have the stock rom.... so to speak.

I asked them about update and bootloader unlock and this is what they sent me
[HTC Sensation] Slash8915:
No offense, but how does this help us or tell us anything different than what everyone else has been saying?
[HTC Sensation] StefanB86:
Prepare to be flamed...
[HTC Sensation] Elvis_Freshly:
Dude..There are 100 MILLION posts with the same response.

Do me a favor...PM a moderator and ask to have your account banned. Take one for the boards..lol

Seriously, do a search before you post.

FLAME ON BROTHERSSSSSS
[HTC Sensation] KeeperOfThePizza:
lol. I think he's contributing.. one more person asking for unlocked bootloader could all make the difference. dont flame the guy. if anything thanks.
[HTC Sensation] tigerz0202:
calm down I know there are zillions of other threads just like this ,but my point was to show people we probably aren't gonna get it for a while ,I see all these great insider post like were getting it Friday ,or were getting it next Monday ...etc you get my drift , if htc still don't know then nobody does , I figure the more of us aggravate them maybe they will get sick of us and just do it
[HTC Sensation] tigerz0202:
Damn Elvis you harsh ,last time I ever share an email with you
[HTC Sensation] Pinepig:
+1, I know it's not the boards policy to spam a manufacture, I do believe it helps if we are more vocal to HTC about our displeasure with the bootloader situation, look at how it helped last time when they asked.
[HTC Sensation] Elvis_Freshly:
It was a joke bro....Your good. lol

Do your thing. Glad you gotta response towards something you would like.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] catman9712:
So recently my friend brought the infuse 4g and he ran linpack and quadrent and compared it to my epic 4g and noticed epic 4g has alot higher scores. why is this since this phone comes stock with 1.2ghz
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
what kernel is he running on the epic. I can say this phone smokes the sgs in linpack. not sure what he is talking about there. and did he have 2.3.3 on the epic? that would explain quadrant, if you setup stagefright on 2.3 a certain way on this chip it gets like 1000 more points in quadrant based on its media encoding/decoding alone.

this is a dumb question, is his infuse stock? and as far as linpack could he be comparing it to an evo not an epic?

next time you make a statement like this come armed with numbers. what is his epic quadrant score, what is his infuse score, and what are the linpack scores respectively? I can tell you I have only seen evidence so far that the infuse overclocks better than other hummingbird phones.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] catman9712:
well his infuse just a scores above the stock epic 4g and the epic has a score of 2800 running on android 2.2 and can be overclocked to run stable on 1.4ghz to get a score of 3200 and higher on quadrant. and my friend is hesident to root his phone just because he just purchesed it like 3 days ago.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] The Jack of Clubs:
theres a million factors put in to scoring higher benchmarks. if you use a couple of these custom roms, youll notice huge improvements by whats included in those roms. an overclock kernel will get you faster speeds. switching to different governors will up the response in cpu scaling. data2sd will add almost another 1000 points. not to mention changes changes in hardware between the devices and what apps you have running. theres alot of ways to improve the performance of the device and alot of ways to cheat at quadrant. its a good pissing competition yard stick but dont rely on it to tell the full story.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] apallohadas:
Lol. Benchmarks.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
benchmarks are good tools if used properly but I'm not sure if the typical xda user can really read a benchmark and learn from it.

those numbers on the epic sound really high. 2800 even on 2.2.1 is hard to acieve on a hummingbird. but his lagfix is probably not ext4. ext2 and nilfs2 file systems will inflate quadrant to no end. atleast with voodoo we have a common yardstick to other android phones even if quadrant stills seems to give the sgs with voodoo a huge advantage over other devices. there are other posible factors but quadrant can be manipulated as it is over sensitive to a few things. I can assure you it is not a hardware issue and the epic has no real advantage. it is only benchmark manipulation and kernel tweeking.

if I told you my captivate gets a 2600 would you think it was faster than the infuse? well mine got that and more. I got about a 2600 on 2.1 @1200mhz with overclocked gpu and oneclick lagfix. ill assure you my infuse is faster with a 1800 on the same benchmark.

infact I have seen more than 3000 on the cappy, that was with gb.

I have seen nexus s and sgs phones with gb and ext2 or nilfs2 file systems get 35-3700 matching the sgs2 and smoking all other dual core phones. does this mean they are actually comparable to thw sgs2? or 50% faster than a dualcore phone?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] The Jack of Clubs:
it helps to also have the advanced version of quadrant to see where the device is falling or exceeding. even still, you can inflate those numbers.

boooooo
[Xperia Play General] subcu1ture:
TBH PS VITA is a whole different ball game.

Currently I wouldn't want it as a phone because it is bulky and the Xperia Play is going in the right direction for mobile gamers not serious gamers.

What xperia Play needs is a full release of the PS1 catalogue and some better game developers other than GameLoft.

It still has a lot of potential as an android gaming platform but companies haven't made the investment in making exclusive games for it this early in it's release days.
[Xperia Play General] icebear8:
well i mean we can play ps1 games on fpse so i think emulators got us covered for a long time until that ps suite comes out (what ever that is hope its psn and psp updates lol) this phone is a bad ass phone it was this or the droid x2 but i game alot on my phone so this was the better deal

ps vita well it looks cool and all but it just seems to big for me, i dont wanna carry 2 things in my pocket its like people carry there android phone and a ipod (btw that is very very dumb lol) when i had my GoW psp i sold my ipod touch so fast that day because my psp was my all in one music,games

and another reason i got my psp was for Snes,ps1,and sega,gba emulators which i can do all on this phone
[Xperia Play General] Deblow:
The only reason i got the XP is for the game pad as i play some classic arcade and Neo Roms. (they was too hard to play without a pad)

it also fits in my pocket better than my psp :D

Most the games on the new consoles/hand held and phones lack gameplay, and the most addictive and satisfying games seam to be the simple games without all the fancy graphics

Lets hope the new PSP has some kick-ass games to help me stop reliving my past gaming years
[Xperia Play General] Krislawl:
but the vita isn't a phone.
[Xperia Play General] icebear8:
but u can use it as a phone (maybe) with the 3g AT&T one
[Xperia Play General] hairdewx:
I bet AT&T would prevent that from happening ;)
[Xperia Play General] zerojay:
Vita has no phone ability, and cannot be used as one at all.
[Xperia Play General] Deblow:
only thing that maybe will work for calls is skype and other similar VOPs

and that's if it will support them, or if some developer makes it happen
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
That is what I was going to say.

Unless you use skype.
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
They can't. You can use Skype or G-Talk.
[Xperia Play General] typikal82:
Skype doesn't really make it a phone IMO, and the Vita is giant compared to the Play, it's even larger than the PSP.

Vita: 182.0 x 18.6 x 83.5 mm

PSP: 170.0 x 23.0 x 74.0 mm

Play: 119.0 x 16.0 x 62.0 mm

Who wants that in their pocket 24/7?
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
Vita is a handheld gaming powerhouse. The play is a smart phone with gaming buttons. The two do not compare at all.
[Xperia Play General] hairdewx:
Sure they can. All they have to do is request Sony to not allow Skype and G-Talk. If Sony agrees then it's gone and there is nothing we can do about it.

AT&T isn't dumb, they aren't going to allow a product on their system (3g PSV) to undermine their business model... and with tiered data plans, good luck getting around that!
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
Skype would simply release a copy to the public without going through the market (Which is Google and a Google OS) Google would never block G-Talk. And if they blocked Skype they would have a fight on their hands. Sony does not control the OS or the market.

Edit:

And I don’t think AT&T can stop anyone from getting a SIM and sticking it in their phone. I have one I used in my IPhone. They sell pre-paid data plans. I live in Canada and use Pre-paid when I go to Florida.
[Xperia Play General] svenk919:
Well I got something bigger. It's just that I don't wear my pants 24/7 ;)

@ncaissie

I think they were talking about skype on the ps vita. And if voip is allowed in games then skype could probably make a psn app if it's allowed connections with the skype servers :D On the other hand skype is with MS now...

Atleast providers won;t be able to block skype in the netherlands, we hot netneutrality as second country in the world :cool:
[Xperia Play General] hairdewx:
Are we on the same page here? Sony does control the PSVita OS and the PSVita market... Not sure how Skype can just release a copy to the PSVita users. The Vita is not using Android, or else that would be news to me. And I would suspect it will come sim-locked.
[Xperia Play General] Blagus:
Why anyone compares Vita and Play?

First, Sony and SE are not the same! Sony originates from Japan, while SE is located in Lund, Sweden.

Second, Play is Android phone with unlockable bootloader. Anyone who knows what is he looking for will take Play.

Third, this is a phone. Phone means when you can insert SIM in your phone and make actual GSM voice connection and hear someone on the other side. Vita isn't phone.
[Xperia Play General] darrisven:
I think that's maybe the most intelligent thing I've seen in this topic. You're not comparing devices to their respected target audience. It's like calling the ipad the successor to the iphone. 2 completely different demographs.
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
Not really. There is something called "ecosystem" and "integration value". People who have an iPhone are prone to have an iPad and viceversa, as they get integration advantages (UI consistency, common purchase account, and so on). And if they have both, they can enhance their purchase even further if they buy a Mac (probably even more in the future).

This is what we're asking for: to receive added value for tying yourself to an ecosystem. We already have a successful videogame desktop console (PS3), a successful videogame portable console (PSP) and a successful integral network for both (PSN). Is it really strange that we're asking that the XPlay be hooked to that winning team instead of building a new ecosystem from scratch?
[Xperia Play General] DeadlyDazza:
I hope Sony make the same games for the Play as the Vita so we can play against Vita users on our Plays.

(Yes... I am taking the piss!)
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
No, for some reason I was thinking about android. Brain fart.
[Xperia Play General] speedyink:
Its a game console, not a phone. Whoever thinks otherwise is either mislead or retarded
[Xperia Play General] recce5:
PS Vita:

- Running a closed and proprietory OS (like the PSP)

- Can only run official software released by Sony and licensed developers (until someone hacked it)

- No SIM card slot, i.e. no phone call and SMS functions

- Bulky, unlikely to fit into a typical jeans pocket

Xperia Play

- Running Android OS

- Open system, can run any Android apps from Marketplace or otherwise

- Can make phone calls and texting etc

- Able to fit into jeans pocket easily

Generally, mobile phone games tend to be simple with a short gameplay duration. Portable gaming devices like the PSP and DSL have games that are deeply immersive, with gameplay that can last for hours or tens of hours, not to mention the games are also of high production values.

The Xperia Play falls in the middle as it can play both Android games and PS games, plus running non official emulators for SNES, Megadrive, GBA etc. All these alone already gave the Xperia Play the best of the best console games you can get from the past 20 years.

To me they're technically different devices (one a phone and the other a dedicated gaming device) and yet there is a slight overlapping in terms of gaming function thanks to the emulators.

Due to the uniqueness of the new features in PS Vita compared to the PSP, I'm sure there will be games utilizing said features and thus providing a brand new experience to the gamers (I would say more so than the 3DS).

So, yes, I'll be getting the PS Vita when it arrives.
[Xperia Play General] FK1983:
Seriously, why is ANYONE comparing the Vita to the Play? for gaming the Vita will pi** all over the Play, the play is a mid range android PHONE with a gamepad, it plays android games and apps, that's it.
[Xperia Play General] Laird_Attwood:
The vita will only be able to use "data" and not access GSM frequencies for calls on what ever network it will run on.

Skype and the like are as close as your going to get to phone calls, but why pay a subscription for data and then pay Skype etc to call mobiles, landlines etc (other than Skype>Skype. just like iPad and other tablets that support data and wifi.

Also wasn't Skype on a Sony vita presentation in Brazil Story so yes seems it will have Skype, unless the M$ buy out has affected that.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] soupiejr:
Does anyone know where I can buy a dedicated USB charging cable for the SGS2? Coming from using the HTC Desire before, it was capable of 2 different modes of charging, USB mode and A/C mode. USB mode is limited to only 500mA whilst A/C mode is capable of up to 1A hence a much faster charging rate. What dictates whether the phone charges in the USB mode or A/C mode is if the data connection of the cable has been shorted.

So, I'm looking for a Micro USB cable that has got its data connections shorted, so that the phone can charge at a much faster rate. Anyone know where to get one?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namz:
Can someone advise me difference between these 2 ROMs.

What I really want to know is -

Is RCMixS v2.1 D2EXT same as other one , just with D2EXT instead of A2SD?

Is RCMix Sv2.1 D2EXT a GB ROM or not ?

Thanks,
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
1) Yes.

2) RCMix S is the Desire S rom, at least I think so, so yes. It is a GB rom.

Swyped...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namz:
Thanks mate ! But both should work on a non-S HTC Desire as well ?

Also as D2EXT ROM does not have much info , I am assuming it would have all features as other A2SD ROM with D2EXT in place of A2SD . Can anyone confirm that plz..

Cheers!!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
Hi,

I'm using the D2EXT ROM right now.

The difference is literally Data2EXT and the Robocik official is A2SD. Nothing else is different. They're one and the same.

I would avoid the 2.1 ROM for now as it is in testing and Robocik has family issues at home at the moment and is unavailable to continue work (his son had an accident, he's going to be ok, though)

The v2.0 is perfectly stable. I was using the official Evolutionary Sense v2.0 ROM for a month before I ran out of Internal Storage, then the D2EXT version popped up (it's like he was reading my mind...)

Advice? Go for the v2.0 Data2EXT. It's the second set of links in the thread.

Oh and the S bit isn't for the Desire S. It's because it's a Sensation Port, as far as I know.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namz:
Thanks Kryten2k35 . So are there any known issues with 2.1 Data2EXT ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Go read the posts in the thread.

Swyped...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namz:
Thanks Meaple. I did had a read and the only change i can see from change log is fixed htc ime and calender widget. So I can live with that , starting 2.0 download now.

Couple of more questions

1. What is Transparent Sense ?

2. Do we have any good themes like Alex's Expresso that wud work with this ?

3. Which is better performance wise (read stable/fast) D2EXT 2.0 or A2SD 2.0 ???

Cheers!!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
v2.1 is unofficial and is actually v2.0 test 4. I've read a lot of people having problems with it, with it being a test version, so I've stayed clear for now.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deeco7:
A1: Transparent Sense - The clue is in the title; the Sense UI is transparent (some elements)

A2: Alex's Expresso - Yes

A3: D2EXT vs A2SD - Click Me!

If you have further questions, refer to the 'RCMix Guide' this includes all versions of RCMix including 'RCMix S'. ;)
