[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charbo187:
I'm sorry if this has been discussed ad nauseam.

I have an HTC Aria of which I have updated to the official 2.2.2.

what I want to do is simply completely erase the phone and instal the latest stable cyanogenmod.

I have followed all the links.

I just don't know where to begin at all. I don't know the terms. clockworkmod, fastboot, recovery, etc etc.

I haven't done anything with the phone at all because I'm too scared I'm going to end up with a brick.

if someone could just lay out the process for me step by step. of going to official 2.2 to cyanogenmod I would appreciate it sooooooooooooooo much.

I'm sorry I've failed at the forums but I just feel so overwhelmed.

thank you.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpbklake:
The last 2 links are the only ones you need to concentrate on. Since you have Froyo update 2.2.2 AlphaRevX is the only option you have to unlock your phone so that you can ultimately install CM 7.

First you need to follow the AlphaRevX thread to gain S-OFF (security off) on your Aria. Just a note, in these 2 threads, you need to remember that an Aria = HTC Liberty.

After you run AlphaRevX, then you will follow the steps that attn1 outlined in the 2nd post to install ClockworkMod recovery which will allow you to ultimately flash CM 7.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charbo187:
sigh. thanks for the help but I still feel like I don't really know what I'm doing.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpbklake:
Well at least you have:

1. Updated your Aria to the latest Froyo 2.2.2 (without bricking it)

2. Found this site and forum.and asked some questions

Depending on your technical level, I would read through those 2 threads. I know several of the posts had step by step instructions. They may be too technical, but it should at least help you narrow down what to google and search for to help you learn and gain some knowledge on how to procede.

Might want to replace the launcher with Launcher Pro. It is 2x smoother than the default ADWLauncher.

Other than that, go and have fun with your rooted phone! Just make sure to nandroid backup before you make any drastic changes.

Finally, light at the end of the tunnel. I was beginning to lose hope about my 2.2.2 Aria. Can't wait to get started.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpc477:
Hoping someone can provide some feedback. I recently converted to the MR2.5 radio & when I did that I went to the DAS BAMF 1.8.6 ROM. I know the creators of the Gingerbread BAMF ROMS have said that the MR2 radio works better than the 2.5 with their ROMS, but I've also heard from independent people that it can go either way as far as reliability & stability. And it seems (from what I've read on the MR2.5 thread) that the majority of people seem to be having good luck with the 2.5 radio even with the DAS BAMF Gingerbread ROMS. So far with the MR2.5 Radio and DAS BAMF 1.8.6, my phone is as stable as it's ever been. I haven't had a single reboot since I installed the ROM right after it came out. It seemed like no matter what ROM I had before, I still got at least an occasional random reboot with the MR1 radio. I'm thinking about making the leap From Froyo to Gingerbread with DAS BAMF - should I switch to the MR2 radio, or stay with the 2.5 since it seems to be working fine for me so far? Besides just the BAMF ROMS, what radio seems to work best overall for the Gingerbread ROMS? Any feedback would be appreciated! Thanks.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeinrichmond:
I have better luck on BAMF 3.0 RC4 with the MR2 radio vs 2.5..
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanster1:
I'm on bamf 3.0 rc3	w/ mr2 radio and it is working great. Gps locks on immediately and no random reboots.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcnyc:
I know they recommended mr2 but I was on mr2.5 prior to flashing this rom and so far it's been alright. I don't think there is any hard to using 2.5 but we'll see if problems arise for me.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xawax:
The phone has MAGLDR 1.12 installed, currently on a WINMO rom, and a dead USB port. :(

It seems like all the methods for loading the Android roms that I want to load need to utilize ClockworkMod and/or a usb connect method. Since my phone won't connect with the USB, it makes it pretty hard.

I really want to get android on my phone! Can anyone point me to a rom that uses the IMGLEO method or possibly another workaround that I don't know about?

Thanks

Unless there's a way to install CWM from the SD card, I can't see any way to accomplish it.

[Thunderbolt General] BubbaRob1978:
In case anyone cares, I was able to add the $30 Unlimited 4G hotspot tethering plan to my T-bolt account. At first the rep was not aware of the plan but after some digging around she located the code to use. She then had to read through to make sure it was unlimited, and it is.

Now lets see how much data I can chew through before they throttle me back. :eek:
[Thunderbolt General] admiralspark:
Why wouldn't you just root and tether for free? :-/
[Thunderbolt General] Pithism:
agree

10char
[Thunderbolt General] ddgarcia05:
I'm tethering right now using my droid incredible. I haven't paid for a tethering plan. I hear only the stock verizon tether app alerts you of a needed data plan if used.
[Thunderbolt General] BubbaRob1978:
I am rooted and although it's tempting to use the wireless tether app, I'd rather not violate the carrier TOS and end up with a very large cell bill. It's $30/mo for my own peace of mind. I live and work in a very good 4G area so it's worth it for me since it's much faster than my AT&T DSL (3.0mb/s) home internet. If and when Verizon throttle me back I will make a decision on whether to keep it or not. I am not against using the tether apps, don't get me wrong, I just choose not to use them. :D
[Thunderbolt General] spazma7ik:
Disregarding the fact that you could do this for free, that is a very good deal.
[Thunderbolt General] lrs421:
Nothing wrong with that :)
[Thunderbolt General] Agentbolt:
Kudos to you, my man. That is a pretty great deal, although something tells me it'll have the whole "this isn't meant to replace your home internet connection" language in the fine print somewhere.
[Thunderbolt General] BubbaRob1978:
I agree. Maybe I will get a good couple of months out of it before I have to switch to a real internet provider..:D

My intentions here were just to let others know the rumors of the unlimited hotspot plan were actually true for those that might want to grab it up.
[Thunderbolt General] Forgetfull:
Thanks for the info op. That's cool news.
[Thunderbolt General] Mr. Transistor:
I'm not rooted and didn't add $30 tether feature today....I've been able to still use TBOLT hotspot for free.
[Thunderbolt General] jwa0042:
So, according to what i found on the internet, this is a $30/month charge for those who are grandfathered in to the $30/month unlimited data plan. So if you want tethering, your grand total would add up to $60/month, correct?
[Thunderbolt General] mariol90:
me too. can we continue to use it until it says otherwise? i haven't gotten any messages saying it's no longer free, and when i turn on the mobile hotspot (just did a few minutes ago) it gives me the same old message saying it's free to use for a limited time.
[Thunderbolt General] BubbaRob1978:
That is a good question. I am not sure if a new customer with a tiered 3G/4G data plan can get the unlimited 4G hotspot. Maybe a Verizon rep will chime in. But yes, my total is $60 on top of the voice plan/text costs.
[Thunderbolt General] Robertus:
No, that option is only available for grandfathers, ie, people with grandfather'd unlimited data plans.

Thanks, Robertus
[Thunderbolt General] lrs421:
I decided to pay for it as well in case they start cracking down, my plan is discounted so I pay $48 for unlimited data and hotspot, not bad imo.

Worth the peace of mind.
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
how dare someone not try to work the system?!? :confused:

I've got no problem paying for what I use.
[Thunderbolt General] lrs421:
Lmao. I wouldn't have paid when I was on at&t, no unlimited option and speeds were abysmal.
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
after switching to verizon, I was going to turn off my time warner hotspot and just eat the etf thinking I would just pay for tethering as needed. But time warner gave me 30 bucks/month in discounts and free showtime for me to keep it. So my hotspot (based on sprints 3g/4g) is only costing me 10bucks a month. Nice to have so that when I don't get verizon 4g, I probably get sprints.
[Thunderbolt General] imanust:
I decided to cancel my fios tv and internet service and rely solely on the vzw 4g so I ponied up the 30/month. Well worth it IMO.
[Thunderbolt General] bthomp21:
I honestly see no point in paying to tether unless you travel a lot or a business person needing the internet on the go.

a majority of people are getting this to replace home internet (which a good deal could roughly be around 30 bucks) but what if you have family and when you arent home with your phone, how will they get on the internet? that is my only concern. so therefore, im not paying 30 dollars on top of the 30 dollar "unlimited" plan to be legit.

its just another way for verizon to sucker people in to paying more for services that their system can handle.
[Thunderbolt General] ilovesoad:
Without competition, the cell companies will continue to do this.
[Thunderbolt General] Devil_07:
I agree. Signed up last night.

What I find funny about it, a week or two ago I remember reading an article about a one cent price increase on a Verizon service which violated the TOS and allowed subscribers to get out of their contracts without an early termination fee a week before the tiered data plans went into effect. Then one day after they impose tiered data plans, they offer unlimited tethering for $30 to grandfathered subscribers. I wonder how many people are kicking themselves for jumping ship?
[Thunderbolt General] lrs421:
I tether a lot to my xoom, I don't travel much but the places I go don't offer wifi. I watch hulu and Netflix on my notebook as well. $24 sounded like a good deal to me ;-)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] _bumbala_:
Hi experts,

I recently installed the LEO "Stock" NAND Android ROM from DFT to my HTC HD2. I have the famous G-Sensor Problem. My phone is working perfectly when it is upside down (no black screen on making/ending a phone call and proximity sensor working). I tried calibrating upside down, but no success.

Further investigating, I found bm150.usr solution but:

- Installed "File Expert"

- I made a backup of existing bm150.usr

- I copied the new bm150usr overwriting the old one.

- Restarted. No success.

Further reading, found that I need to delete .txt files under data/misc, however I can't see anything under data/misc.

I have SuperUser installed, how can I use it?

What is rooting?

What is mounting?

I have been trying almost 3 hours, please help!

Thanks...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] _bumbala_:
Ok I downloaded and installed prj_build_v0.3.2. The G-Sensor is calibrating properly. I can see the data/misc folder, so I applied bm150.usr. However during a call, whenever I turn the phone facing UP the screen goes black and turn the phone downwards (facing the ground) the screen gets back! This is really driving me crazy... Is it a hardware fault?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] _bumbala_:
I've been searching for this problem about a month now, flashing at least 10 ROMs, radios etc, with no success. I found this video googling which describes exactly my problem:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCloMmboCl8

Another example:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49-LdNvM4Pw

I like my phone running Android. Fits my expectations, visual style, performance, sync with Outlook etc. But, it's really hard to use the phone like this when I call a bank or similar, struggling to dial the next extension. My choices are either go outside to sunlight or dial upside down people staring me like a cow...

Right now, I am using Typhoon CM7 ROM from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=933951

which is a very nice ROM especially with the sound enhancement. Congratulations on the developer! But, my problem still continues...

Please can somebody help me. I'm really frustrated with this problem.

(I wish I could post this message to the right thread. But I'm rookie without 10 messages :))

[HTC EVO 3D] stanglifemike:
Looks just like the Innocase Rugged( minus the inner 2-piece hard shell) that I used on my Evo 4G before going to the Ballistic HC. How much is this case and who all sells it? Hope to be getting my 3D in the next couple weeks and may just get this case to go on it. My Innocase Rugged held up great, just replaced it with the Ballistic HC based on looks....

Still torn though honestly, I like the fact that the Otterbox covers the camera area better
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Looks nice man love the otter box defender keeps the ports covered . I was thinking about the convert combo looks cool tho heard bad things about the rebrand from breast buy folks said it was cheap feel and broke at times for folks camera flap was kinda gay folks were sayin it had a bad feel .

If u test the convert combo out let me know to me the otter box defender looks way and feels better then what breast buy has out sexy and smooth.

When trident and ballistic come out with the kraken and aegis from trident will be sweet and the tank from ballistic will be sweet .
[HTC EVO 3D] Matty Mo:
Yeah, i like the port covers but on the otterbox case i had for less then a week, the port covers already started to rip before returning it which is a downside... thats why i like having no port covers, its in preparation of when it does fall off!

and just so you know, this is the Active Case, made by Seidio.
[HTC EVO 3D] guyandhisdog:
Agree 100% with OP. Returned Otterbox Defender (too bulky, hard to type) returned Otterbox Commuter (felt thin, cheap, low quality, rubber not tight)

Bought Seido rebranded as Platinum from Bestbuy same as OP (except mine is black rubber with white back.) Rubber is almost TWICE as thick as Otterbox, way tighter on phone and just feels much much better. Better grip, better weight (and +1 on appearance)

it was $37.88 at bestbuy, same price as my Otterbox commuter refund.

Totally satisfied, would recommend 100%, would buy this PT/Seido again tomorrow if I had to.

Edit...and no power slot cover which is a +1 since it eliminates the extra step pain in the a.. and seemed unnecessary anyway. Can of aerosol air blast removes and dust or lint from that port in 2 seconds

...nice upgrade from hero
[HTC EVO 3D] mario23:
I'm a Seidio fan.

The only problem I ever saw personally with the active case was the corner pieces breaking easily. I had a couple of them and experienced the same problem. Otherwise...nice case.

ok my battery just fully died should I charge it on for 8 hours or charge it with the phone off off until green? which is the best method?
[HTC EVO 3D] shook187:
personally I think it's all bull****. Just charge the battery when you need charging. All this calibrating talk is bs.
[HTC EVO 3D] #Winning#:
The battery life on the 3D is significantly better than what the OG Evo was. Therefore I would say that just charging when you need to is probably your best bet. You don't need to Calibrate the battery because Lithium-Ion batteries do not have a memory which would dictate any sort of history.

I have done a lot of reading on www.BatteryUniversity.com and to my understanding with lithium ion you want to avoid a full discharge. With my 3D I have just been running the phone normally and letting the battery drop to around 40% and then fully charging and I have had great battery life.

If you are consumed by how to condition/charge the battery I would suggest reading the articles on Lithium-Ion on that site that I posted.

Hope this helps.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vesnik:
THIS.

I laugh every time I see people saying what they do to charge their battery. Stand on one foot, rub your head and pat your stomach, charge for 8 hours, unplug for two minutes and charge again for an hour, do a barrel roll.

This is nonsense, Lithium-Ion batteries do not have a memory, they can not be trained in any way.

Also you do not have to worry about a full discharge, your phone/battery prevents this. I believe you only have to worry about this when using some serious stuff like RC items like planes, cars etc.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
People don't so much train the battery as they train the phone. Like on the OG EVO, when you would do a batt stat wipe, you needed to fully let the battery die and then bring it to a full charge. This was so the phone knew where the battery really was at 0% and 100%.
[HTC EVO 3D] ceddie85:
battery

thanks everyone for your input
[HTC EVO 3D] ceddie85:
how good is ur battery life charging that way u mentioned?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramiss:
It doesn't take much research on these forums to figure out that Calibrating has nothing to do with the battery. Of course the battery has no memory, nor can you get magical extra capacity out of it.

When you calibrate you are increasing the upper and lower limit of "what the phone" thinks the battery capacity is. Which in turn makes the battery meter "on the phone" more accurate and allows the battery to be charged more completely.

I get an approx 30 mins of extra awake time since I calibrated using the procedures in the Evo 4G thread.

So, here we go.. first id like to thank Ajthescot for this is ported from his theme here made a lot of changes because i also inverted a lot. and also the clock images came from Stoney 666 thread and also JAITHEMES for the andy you will see i made into the rosie splash screen. i can not remember where i found the boot animation (it isnt mine)

I tried to keep it as neutral as i could so you all can still use the sense skins that where posted in drew's thread and still have everything match. IT ALSO ADDS A FEW MORE DROPDOWN OPTIONS

I did not do any app icons... their are many icon threads you can chose from. i did this because i dont have the time i used to for android and i hardly ever get a chance to update apps.

but i did edit a icon set to match that i found here

YOU CAN USE DESKTOP VISUALIZER OR SOMETHING LIKE IT TO USE THE ICONS
