[HD7 General] TEKHD:
Hello there.. I have a Chevron unlocked HD7, and also an HD2. Just want to know if there is a way to extract the LiveID Key from the HD7 in order to use it on an HD2 with WP7. Since the key can be used in up to 3 devices... already searched but nobody seems to have ever asked this... thank you!

I'd be very interested in this too of anyone can help.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiyou:
hey guys i just got my nexus one 2.3.3

im confused what 2 do first

root, unlock bootloader

what 2 do first?

and i preffer to do all these things WITHOUT adb, bcoz adb never works with me
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
You can't unlock bootloader without ADB (or actually without fastboot, but if you can't get ADB to work, then you probably won't be able to get fastboot to work - since they work the same way).

My suggestion is - do nothing. At least until you'll be able to follow one of the guides and get ADB and fastboot to work. Then you can decide yourself, whether you want the bootloader unlocked or not, and how will rooting benefit you.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiyou:
what are the benefits of unlocked bootloader?

i just wanted it to get it rooted and flash CM7 on it
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
It has been discussed a lot, please search to get A LOT of answers.

In a very short version, the benefits are:

Safe radio updates (using fastboot)

Ability to flash whatever you want whenever you want - which is, permanent ability to have root access, regardless of the currently used OS.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiyou:
but is it possible to flash CM7 rom without unlocking bootloader?

whenever i boot my nexus one, there is this little lock icon on the bottem that is "unlocked"

is my bootloader unlocked?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LFact:
If there's lock icon at the bottom of boot splash screen, it means the bootloader is already unlocked. Is it used one?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiyou:
yes its used, i guess that guy alrdy unlocked it for me

another problem

i have serius wifi issue, its different from the other wifi problem

if i connect to my wifi its authenticating, then disabled

i dont even go to sleep its just says disabled after authenticating, i tried reconecctint but same things happens again...

i installed wifi fixer but that doesnt work either

also, my 3g drops after 4 sec and i cant get it to work afterwards
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Flash a new ROM, wipe your data, and try.

Repeat.

If the problems will still persist - they're in HW and you can't do anything about them.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiyou:
i tried factory reset but didnt work...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
This is exactly the reason why I suggest not touching your phone.

You either don't understand what exactly I'm guiding you to do, or don't understand the difference between various maintenance/repair operations. Flashing a new ROM and wiping user data from custom recovery ISN'T the same as doing "factory reset" from within already-installed ROM. Flashing 2 ROMs with different base (for example, lightly modified stock and CM7, or CM7 and MIUI, etc) introduces enough difference on the SW size to (almost) make sure that any problem which persists in both new ROMs, is coming from HW.

In any case, I suggest either waiting for someone with much more patience than myself (which isn't hard - patience isn't one of my strengths) to explain you some basics that you're not willing to learn yourself by reading, reading and some more reading, or to give your phone to someone who knows what he's doing.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiyou:
dude....

i rooted and flashed many roms b4, this isnt my first android phone

i just got confused data wipe with factory reset....
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
Ok well now I need to know if you have a custom recovery, if so then just 5X wipe plus 3X system wipe and flash a new ROM, if not then do you have root access if not I'll walk you through the process.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
shiyou

You are in good hands with Dude

Couple points:

Don't use Clockwork Mod 3.+ as recovery--which seems to be your next step--get a lower version

I prefer Amon_Ra 2.2.1 for my recovery

BACKUP phone (NANDROID) as soon as you get the recovery

Look thru Cyanogen thread from OP page and last few dozen pages

Cyanogen flashes a little differnet with having to flash gapps separate and flashing Dark Tremor's a2sd after each Nightly flash
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiyou:
i know how 2 root,flash,wipe, nandroid and all

i did it many times b4

i think i wont use nightly builds, but a stable? or RC?

which should i take?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
How about cm7.1 RC1 that is the latest version of cyanogen mod.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiyou:
why not clockwork recovery 3? the cyanogenmod rc1 states that i need that?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiyou:
should i use gingerbeak? im on 2.2.3 and install the recovery afterwards?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiyou:
ok i rooted it with gingerbreak and flashed clockworkmod recovery on it

after that i went into recovery and couldnt find nandroid backup so i rebooted again

i tried to make a backup via rom manager and it ended up with a "!" icon

i tried to go into recovery again and again i got the "!" icon
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
I don't know anything about Gingerbreak

But, on CWMod 3.+, it has been unstable for a lot of people--I don't recommend it

If you have Rom Manager--flash something like 2.5.1.4??

Still recommend Amon_Ra

I am not sure, but if you get the exclamation, you may not be rooted

If you are experienced at flashing, I would as another poster suggested--get to know your phone and study hard info from the Rom threads you want to try before trying.

What color was recovery--did it say ClockWork

I don't think you will see the name Nandroid in Clockwork--just Clockwork backups
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
A couple more suggestions, if you want

Back up sd card regularly--you will lose it on occasion--if you need to reformat it, use sdformatter outside of phone

Partition sdcard with zero swap

Wipe all (data/caches) multiple times before flashing new rom, including System
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
If your exclamation is inside triangle, I think that is normal. Haven't used CW for a long time

You may see a Nandroid in recovery, but I have none on my sdcard as a bu location for clockwork

Don't have USB plugged in when you flash the recovery
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
One more item--and again this is one year old stuff for me

But, I think you need to flash a recovery first then root thru installing a rom with superuser or install superuser on your phone

If you did that I would try an older CWMod

Someone else can correct me
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
The exclamation mark is the stock recovery - try flashing recovery again...
[Acer Iconia A500] xda-dev2k:
As I read everywhere, our A500 has many probs reproducing video at 1080p, worse than this I've to say that I hadn't any luck even with 720p format.:(

I've tried mani different players, with or without added codecs, with hard and soft decoding, but the results are always poor.

I'm talking 'bout Utube films, but also some H264 or .mkv (perfectly working on every pc or notebook even with am embedded graphic adap.

So, what we're gonna do? wait for a solution embedded into the OTA final 3.1, or is it an hardware problem we are facing right now despite the technical declared data of the various OEMs? Isn't tegra2 capable to manage hi-res videos?

Some guru's technical explanation would be appreciate, in order to clarify this situation, at least to give us good reason to hope or to give up with further expectations...

...and in any case, I'm glad to thank you for thy wonderfull job I do in this forum;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Dexter_nlb:
some facts,

- stock acer rom 3.1 plays 1080p mp4 material just fine through HDMI.

- it will not be possible to play a 720p movie on tv as 1080p require much scaling and looks lousy.

- desktop is only 1280x800 (close to 720p) so don't expect 1080p just like that, it would look awful(even with 720p its still 4x scaling). (i seen it on folio100) and LG Optimus 2x does it too..

I havent got any avi at 1080p, and no mkv's to test at 1080p.

the WMV 1080p i have did not switch screen res to 1080p when played, so maybe its just for mp4..
[Acer Iconia A500] thor2002ro:
the screen Is actually larger... its 1280x800 you get 720 because it removes the bottom bar(this is done so you don't see stretching and it will look horrible)...

you cant get actually 1080... its a mirror... you cant mirror something to make it look bigger, Its just a workaround triggered by the hardware decoder... that gets you the 1080...
[Acer Iconia A500] Johnny0906:
Do you mean 720 on the Acer screen or on the TV? Cuz when I play 720p thru HDMI the image is perfect.
[Acer Iconia A500] thunderkiss65:
Why when I plug my device into my 1080 HD TV I can never get the resolution correct, the closest I can get it is when I set it to wide but I see my device not fitting the screen it is larger, now I am just talking about my desktop not videos.
[Acer Iconia A500] Dexter_nlb:
Motorola Atrix(tegra2 baseD) do 2 separate screens. its indeed possible with tegra2 to have 2 different screen, i ported atrix release to folio100 and had a mediacenter on hdmi + android screen locally on tablet..

like with the 1080p playback, where you have a black screen on tablet, i think thats how 3.x handle it for now.. although its possible (since atrix has done it)

the chipset handles 2 screens fine, since atrix can do it, but vendors making the software is not making it possible, so what Google is doing is not much on this area, only motorola manage to do it, with their ubuntu + mediacenter + android solution.

lets hope someone else makes it.

same issues found on pre-3.x tablets... ElocityA7 managed to fix it, but i dont remember if folio100 got it fixed (as almost no updates happened)

i guess they're starting over,.. my tv in "just scan" mode still shows acer incorrectly.. so its for sure possible to look forward to a fix for it..
[Acer Iconia A500] thor2002ro:
I can try to port the mediacentrer... have no ideea how the kernel will take it... or how the roms will react will try...
[Acer Iconia A500] Dexter_nlb:
i just looked through the atrix section, and it seems that ppl experience only 720p with its mediacenter function, so it might be 2 diff. displays but still only 720p..

so probably not worth spending time on. but they do have some technique to split the picture.
[Acer Iconia A500] anstelios:
Also..

What about that Bourne trailler ?? How come it plays perfect on the transformer and choppy on the iconia??

Thanks for responding dexter, What is odd in this video this guy has his tablet hooked up through hdmi and if you look close everything on hd tv looks the same as tablet, When i hook mine up to hd tv everything is oversized no matter what i set my hd tv to, Do you have the same issue when you try to play a game through your tablet..

It played fine on the Xoom with 3.01 too. There was a review of the A500 on youtube a while ago and they were shocked that this trailer played fine on the Xoom but not the Iconia. It still doesn't play in the leaked Acer 3.1. It plays fine on the Transformer and Galaxy based roms though.

Here's the youtube review. The video is tested at around 10:40 to 12:40 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMmS8ObCMbA

I can confirm that the Bourne video lags like hell on my A500 with the leaked stock 3.1 update.
[Acer Iconia A500] chr0m:
I know, it's exactly the same as the stock Acer 3.01 rom.

I hope that the leaked 3.1 isn't final otherwise I wonder wtf Acer have been doing all this time.
[Acer Iconia A500] MichellBak:
I'm guessing it's probably got something to do with the 1080p output being disabled for now, since it works with the kernels that have enabled that feature. Just guessing though - we'll have to see what Acer decides to do :)

On a side note, for people wondering, the video file in question is a 1080p H.264 encoded MP4 file with a rather high bitrate (didn't check the average, but some parts of the video exceeded 12 Mbps).
[Acer Iconia A500] Dexter_nlb:
i dont think its kernel issue..

Bourne movie playys perfectly with Galaxy rom with my kernel "angel" edition, which does not work with the "dextersiconia" rom, where bourne movie stutter.. so its drivers...any acer image has the issue.. so decoding issue is placed in the handling of the containers..

but firmware for chipset is different in galaxy/virt. images, compared to acer stock roms..

If it helps, when i try playing 720p on standard clock spped videos come out choppy but when i run the same video at 1.5GHz, video comes out perfect. On dexter 3.1 ROM

I can confirm that today's official update has helped a lot and that the 1080p Bourne video now plays smoothly without any sort of lag :)

All,

On 1.18 update for about 10-14 days now. Recently experienced syncing problems whereby most of the sync'able items from my accounts have the circular-arrows-sync icon next to the check box when I view the accounts & sync page, and they are not syncing. Weirdly, one or two *are* syncing (well the date/time says they are!).

Was at a loss (no "clear cache" button available in gmail) - had to revert to my N1! (which was working OK btw). So figured I didn't have anything to lose and did a "Clear data" on gmail. Syncing started OK again. WEIRD, as my Exchange ActiveSync started working too!

Three days later and i have the same problem.

Anyone else? Any permanent fixes?

CyanogenMod is packaged in zip format. I repackaged Motafoca's Froyo 2.0.9 rom recently, and now that we have a separate RFS version of ClockworkMod, it is now possible to repackage stock ROMs in zip format. It's just a matter of somebody spending 10 minutes to go through the process of converting and then uploading.

Hi Subpyske:

I am running the Froyo 2.2 Samsung version in my Galaxy 5. It was downloaded from the XDA only.

I did try to install the CMW using ODIN, it had prompted me to add the Ops File. For which I used the same "EUROPA_v1.0.ops" that I had used for porting Froyo.

I did get a Pass (blue) status in ODIN, I thought I will check if the CMW is installed properly, started my phone in the Safe mode.

But I am still getting the image of Android man working not the CMW screen.

Can you let me know where I have gone wrong?

I'm having a bit of a problem trying to backup my brother's stock ROM with Clockworkmod.

When I first get into recovery, it says:

E: Can't mount cache/recovery/command

E: Can't mount cache/recovery/log

E: Can't open cache/recovery/log

E: Can't mount cache/recovery/last_log

E: Can't open cache/recovery/last_log

Then when trying to backup, it will not backup the cache and the backup will then abort, leaving me with a few files but no nandroid.md5 which makes the backup useless.

Any help appreciated.

EDIT: Just using root explorer, and I see in the /cache/ folder there are no files, so Clockworkmod can not find a recovery folder. Is there a fix to this?

I'll also mention he is unable to download anything from the Android Market. The file shows up in the notification bar and instantly disappears.

EDIT EDIT: I may have found the problem. It depends on what Clockworkmod you are using.

If you're using the RFS version of Clockworkmod, then it will come up with the errors

If you're using the EXT4 version, then the errors will not show up.

I haven't attempted to backup the stock ROM yet, as I found out the problem by messing with my own phone. :)
