The bootloader version number will be changed after alpharevx, to 6.something, to stop accidental bootloader down grading.

Ginger beak is the exploit that we use to achieve root, So it can be rooted!

You don't need gold card.

You're right in saying that you don't need root to flash custom, just soff and a recovery, CWM or EXT4

But you do need root to take the recommend pre custom backup

I don't see htc releasing unlocked boot loader to this device till at least late september as the schedule they've announced initially involves sensation and evo3d only
[HTC Desire S] dloulou:
Thanks a lot, it is much clearer now.

I didn't know that.

So the only purpose of the goldgard is to downgrade the bootloader?
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Yep, a pre-backup (a Nandroid backup) always helps and makes you feel slightly more secure when flashing!

Goldcards - I'm afraid that I'm not 100% sure about that. :confused:

A quote from @paulobrien @Modaco, "A GoldCard is a special SD card which, when inserted into your device, allows you to flash RUU (ROM Update/upgrade utility) files with a different CID to your own device. For example, if you own a T-Mobile branded device, this will allow you to flash a generic ROM."

As I don't own a network locked device I've never had to use one myself, so my knowledge about them is pretty thin.
[HTC Desire S] dloulou:
Thanks, mine is also not a branded device.
[HTC EVO 3D] mozman:
I just got the Bodyguarz screenguardz HD. This is there version that has the anti-glare. I have to say that I really like it a lot [recommended!]. More so than ordinary screen protectors. It cuts down on the glare, it is smooth and easy to slide your finger across. Some protectors have that slight tacky/grippy feel [I believe the original bodyguarz screen protectors are like that]. IMO those are not ideal for touchscreens.

Careful though. This is my second set, which Bodyguardz sent me for free. The first set was manufacturered differently and caused a 'halo' effect. This is where the very edges of the protector are not sticking to the black borders of the screen. I notified Bodyguardz about the defect and they sent me a replacement that was manufactured differently, for free!

Here's a link to their website: http://www.bodyguardz.com/screenguardz-htc-evo-3d-cases-screen-protectors-covers-shields-skins-films.html

I will post pics soon, hopefully you'll be able to notice the anti-glare.
[HTC EVO 3D] aronslusa:
I have the equivalent from Zagg (smudge proff, anti-glare), and it took a bit of getting acclimated to it. It makes colors a little more vibrant in my opinion, and sharpens up the screen.

I mainly got it because I wasn't impressed with PhantomSkinz, and I had some gift cards to use up at Best Buy.

Wish I would've seen this before hand, the static cling/ minor adhesive is a little appealing.

Hi, is there any way to connect wifi with WPA (Chiper type) TKA AES? Anyone has a knowledge? Thanks in advance..
[XPERIA X8 General] fraan_cisco:
Hi!

My name is Francisco and i'm from Chile.

I want to put a custom ROM (Android 2.2) to my Sony Ericsson X8, but before flashing i have a question.

I need to unlock my phone before flashing it with a custom ROM? Because my phone has customization and it is locked and i can't use it inother companies.

Thanks in advance!
[XPERIA X8 General] codfreak:
You don´t need to unlock your phone for custom ROMs, you´ll just need superuser access and a recovery.

Have a look at one of the tutorials that are available on this forum, they´re quite good!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] les02jen17:
How do you calibrate your NookColor's battery effectively using the Battery Calibration app by NeMa? I've done it a couple of times and I'm quite unsure whether it did anything good on my battery... On my personal opinion, it just made it worse. Or maybe I did something wrong. It says there that it's recommended to wait for 100% before you calibrate. I did that. It also says that it's recommended to have the battery drain after calibrating, then charge to full without stop. I did that. But after all of I've done, I did not notice any difference, in fact I think it just got worse.

Did I do it right? Can anyone post a tutorial/link that can teach me how to do it right?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RASTAVIPER:
Why do you think that thing are worse now?

Is your battery reaching 1 or 2% before nook shuts down?

If yes, then its working fine.

TSM-LockscreenParts Port 3 Lockscreens for the Nexus S

Original thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1030028

Please take a second to visit and thank teamsbrissen for their hard work on creating this app plus supporting me and maddoggin during the port. Thanks to maddoggin for getting me started and sharing the epic source. Thanks to dagr8 in irc for answering questions.

​

This is my progress so far porting the lockscreen parts mod to the Nexus S. Once you install this mod, you settings.apk will be modded as well. When you hit the soft menu, and choose settings, below the about phone option will now be a choice called Locksreen Parts. Then choose Lockscreen Settings. First thing first, there is a choice at the bottom called Custom App. This is very important. Choose an app for that before you do anything else. What this assigns is an app to open when you use the 4tab lockscreen the top tab on the right is labeled TSM. When you slide that tab if you do not have an app selected, you'll reboot. Once you set that then open the app and choose between the first 3 choices, AOSP, 4Tab, and Rotary. All three lockscreens have the music controls on them. They work with the native Google music app I'm not sure about many aftermarket ones because I don't use them.

If you choose a lockscreen that isn't available nothing bad will happen, it will simply revert to AOSP. I'm calling this an alpha because it's unpolished, and it's merely a stopping point on me getting more to work. I would post the source but I can't see hosting it. The source is smali and it's available by going to google, finding smali and baksmali, once you download both those jar files, place them in a folder. Place my android.policy.jar into that same folder. Now with java installed on your machine (win/linux) run the following command to decompile the file:

java -Xmx512m -jar baksmali.jar classes.dex -o classout/

to Recompile the classes.dex if you were to make an edit run this

java -Xmx512m -jar smali.jar classout/ -o classes.dex

Then you will be able to see all the files that I have edited. Eventually I'll get around to posting the output from a diff compare to make it easier on anyone wanting to get into this.

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:

Rom Base Stock GJR22 Deodex

(Means if your on a built from source rom I can't promise anything)

Download zip file

Place on SD card

Flash Nexuslockscreen.zip in CWM

Erase dalvik-cache

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
Don't hold your breath on that, sgs2 locks are breaking aosp, I got the epic lol booting but with undesired consequences.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Enhanced:
Anyone try this for the GSM Nexus S? Too scared to be the tester. :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
alls you have to do is take your roms android.policy.jar, framework.jar, and framework-res.apk and place all 3 in a copy of this update zip. If something goes a wrong, flash your stock files right over them to get back what you had. I'm not sure on this one if it will even boot but if you make a copy of the update zip and put it on your sd with the stock files, you (SHOULD) be safe!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dazednconfused:
Awesome job Dreams. Thanks fir all of the hard work that you have put into this.

I take it you got a haircut. I thought someone had stolen your username...lol.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
LMAO yeah been cut, don't update avatars that much.

Thanks for the support. I'm hoping to expand on it soon but I'm more focused on releasing a rom then expand more on each part of it.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dazednconfused:
Awesome, can't wait to see that. I was going to try making a theme, but the xml part of it throws me completely off. I've themed most of my phone to my liking by just changing the png's with photoshop and changing battery mods. But im trying to learn more.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
Use the guide in my sig
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dazednconfused:
That's what got me this far. Awesome guide by the way. Im not sure why the xml's just confuse the hell outta me.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
There has to be ONE gsm user out there willing to flash this and if it doesn't work, reflash their rom right over to fix it. I use a stock deodex rom for the NS4G. When I'm testing, if it doesn't work out, I flash the rom back over and alls well. My rom formats system but not data so I retain everything on the phone.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mntbkr:
Tried it with open sojus and it didn't work. I'm assuming he changed something in the framework and the are just not working nice with each other.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
what happens on sojua?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] nitsuajd:
Tested on a gsm Nexus

If I Install alfter first boot the lockscreen parts appears but the lockscreen does not change. The other options seems to work well (transition animation and speed of animations)

If I Install at the same time than the room deodexed, does not work, I’ve a bootloop.

If I install using adb (adb remount – adb shell stop - adb push – adb shell start) I’ve a bootloop

Dreams, can you help me?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
I'm sure your back to normal now so what I would need is you to flash it again, over the rom and run adb logcat

Sent from my AOSP+ Premium ROM on my Nexus S 4G
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] nitsuajd:
Here it is!

"logcat.txt" is logcat when booting

"logcat2.txt" logcat when i'm using tsmparts
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mntbkr:
It just kept bootlooping. My set-up includes open sojus, matr1x kernel, battery tweeks, no custom theam.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
Thank you I will get to that

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Dreamsforgotten..you have any plans for a 4g toggle fix?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
Waiting on sprints update they are supposed to be fixing that
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Cool, thanx
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] nitsuajd:
I've tried with another deodexed rom.

If I install after the first boot works fine!

(on a gsm Nexus of course...)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] nitsuajd:
@dreamsforgotten

I'm trying to port this to the GSM files (framework-res.apk, framework.jar & android.policy.jar) but I can't see diferences between framework.jar and framework.jar modded. (The only differences are the line numbers)

Is there really any change in this file? (a part of the line numbers)

Edit: Here is the source for 9 lockscreen in Galaxy S, maybe can help to add more locksreen styles... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1125548

Thanks in advance
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
Star wars is going to be easy. The sgs locks break the nexus i could use a hand breaking the code if you work with smali. I bet your issue with flashing was all about the signatures.

There is a change in framework and it's small as **** hell i don't even remember it gonna have to diff compare to stock
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Enhanced:
Any luck on the port?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
Sorry diff compared the two no difference, what it was I was using the sgs lock and flashing back to the stable mod so I stuck the stock fw in. the rom I released I packed in my sources in a zip but its no different that what you get from doing baksmali on the files
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mntbkr:
Why id there a japanes ime, and what looks like a chinese one also. I was wondering why the auto correction was not working right. I think those may have something to do with it.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
I haven't the slightest clue, I don't think there are any in the zip just a framework policy etc.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mntbkr:
Oops this was suposed to be on your rom tread.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
I'm not sure but that makes more since lol, I did build with full language support but no issues with android kb or swype
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Kurupt1:
I had that japenese ime in mine aswell. I also think it may have been causing the auto correction problems, seems better now. Idk
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
Good to know next release I'll pull that out
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] avalpert:
Does anyone know if this works on stock 2.3.5? I don't really want to change ROMs but I do really want this addition to my lockscreen.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
Unfortunately no, i'm working on a source ROM now with it added it will be the latest code from google with this overlayed so if your on the stock ROM it won't be too much different
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] haphazard1:
hi i was wondering if u have done that work on lockscreen mod to work with stock 2.3.6.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
This will work on 236.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] NYYFan325:
What about 2.3.7 lol

Hey just a heads up ics for nexus s has music lockscreen controls...:D
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] rjones9902:
and where might this be? is it also for nexus s 4g?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] 309041291a:
Well it's built into the OS. So presumably so. I have it on my GSM Nexus. Although I don't really like it because half of the screen turns black. The top half has the controls. The bottom feels like it's missing something... I feel like the album artwork needs to cover the entire page, or at least my wallpaper covers the other half. Just the controls over my wallpaper is nice too.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] dreamsforgotten:
No doubt, ics is improved, screen shot native to the OS, music controls, I'm still working on it now to get a few more options integrated

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HighSun_Murder:
Pretty sure it only works if u have the sim card installed.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firechicken24:
Well I did say that I have 3g T-Mobile service, which u have to have a sim card installed. I can text anyone cause it has its own phone number. Anybody know how to get this working?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natious:
Reflash, or try a different modem i guess.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
T-mobile tabs can get voice +OR+ 3g, but never both.

Look for the Rotohammer modem switch thread. You will find instructions to make your tab work. Please read the first post of that thread.

No, there isn't any other way. It's what we have been dealing with for months.
[Acer Iconia A500] BlakeACullum:
Currently on the flashable .22 3.1. What in your opinion is the best rom for this device.
[Acer Iconia A500] dxwilliams40:
I just ordered this tab myself and I'm interested in opinions on the ROMs available. Are there many developers at this point?
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
so far now...

- Galaxy

- Picasso

- Xoom (3.2)

from the virtuous team

with kernel UNITY

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Honeyvillain (Stock Acer improved :D)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Taboonay (Stock Acer improved )

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the best??? hummm should better try them before.
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
Ya I couldn't say which one is best either but I do love the functions on Virtuous Galaxy. Personally I'm going to wait a few more months or a year before I play with any ROM's -

Unless of course that Galaxy ROM gets perfected. I'm twitching for it.
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
I myself tried both Virtuous Galaxy and Virtuous Xoom and I have to say I really like the Xoom one better. It's smoother, and I experienced odd input lag on the Galaxy one. Both are however several notches better than the HC 3.0 by Acer!
[Acer Iconia A500] grhand82:
just messin...

Just now messing with from mods on my iconia. Do the zoom or galaxy roms support the USB drive?
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
That's a bummer. Nothing about the Xoom version interests me.

Here's hoping the Galaxy version gets better *crosses fingers*
[Acer Iconia A500] entropy.of.avarice:
running stock 3.1

CWM installed and ready to go - but have not flashed any custom roms, as the system running stock 3.1 works great for my purposes. If this changes I will consider going the custom ROM route :-)
[Acer Iconia A500] splatoid:
Im using the xoom and usb is working I use the NTFS mount program and I am still able to sync up my 500 gig WD trough USB.

No problem with this rom for me. Wireless is working great wireless teather to my droid inc phone and everything else working so far. Just put this rom on today about 6 hours ago.
[Acer Iconia A500] ChiefWilNel:
the one it comes with.:D
[Acer Iconia A500] dxwilliams40:
You say that now, but flashing is addictive. Once you realize what else your device is capable of, you will continue to modify it to fit your needs. My Galaxy Tab is far more than it was when I purchased it. I will continue to use it due to its voice capabilities.
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
I would say...

I tested every rom on XDA for A500

Xoom : no improvement, actually I felt like a downgrade rather than something else...not because a bad rom but maybe just because not fit to my need.

Galaxy: I love the UI, but.... feel like an overall slugggginess... the widget are maybe too much... I didn't checked the latest latest version so maybe it's improved... (the 5Mpx was not yet fixed...)

Picasso: Dunno... didn't see like a better things

Taboonay: this rom satisfied all my needs but lately maybe because of kernel... felt like some problem happening

ALL those rom have a common point I do not like it's the "automatic" 3G support... well I didn't buy my tablet to get 3G on it from a third part things or modified things... I just tether with my phone and it's really enough.

latelly I restocked my tabletS (both of them) one run the .40 and the other .38 well I am satisfied

maybe later I will return on custom rom :D

I rooted my tablet, that is at this moment fit my needs.
[Acer Iconia A500] rdbeard:
it all comes to your own personal preferences. I would encourage you to just try out a few and see what you like best. The virtuous team does do a very nice job with their roms though. I'm currently using virtuous zoom 3.2 but I do like the virtuous galaxy too but it needs a little work.
[Acer Iconia A500] godsosall:
Honeyvillain (Stock Acer improved )

is best for me, more over, richardtrip is my favorite dev. since HTC Desire appeared.

I have a 3.1 that works and has least no. of FCs and odd things, comparing to stock rom by acer
[Acer Iconia A500] jmbank:
My tab has a problem that it shut itself when in sleep mode , i would say 50% chance.

Tried most of the roms and no rom solve it 100%.

Now, Im with xoom3.2 ,,, so far so good (but just 3 hours ago)

Any idea???? Is it hardware or soft ware problem????
