[Milestone XT720 General] punchback:
Well I installed Titanium Backup and it prompted for su access I clicked OK and it started up. On the main screen of Titanium it says:

Root access: OK (BusyBox 1.17.2 from system)

So I think I'm rooted??
[Milestone XT720 General] 3rdstring:
Yes. You can try to uninstall the System Recovery app, reboot, & re-install it. Mod My Mobile has the Open Recovery files & manual installation instructions. Or maybe try copying the OpenRecovery.apk to the sd card & installing it with a file explorer (e.g. ES File Explorer or Astro from the market)

I've watched some videos by reverandkjr and he wipes the Dalvik Cache and the Cache Partition. Should this be done??

[Milestone XT720 General] punchback:
I've got into Open Recovery and have already flashed to the 2.2 CBW image. Is there any benefit to wiping the Dalvik Cache and the Cache Partition like I've seen on reverandkjr videos.

I will wipe the Dalvik, cache & data/factory reset whenever I flash a new ROM

Coming from FruitPhone world, a lot of the Gameloft games used the fantastic gyroscopic controls, just bought Modern Combat HD from the market place and there are no options to use it, I'm sure the SGS2 has gyroscope functions, why, what, if and how...

Very disappointing used to love the gyro controls, so much quicker and more realistic.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Chef_Tony:
a lot of games use the gyroscope or accelerometer for control. all the gameloft hd racing games do, the emulators do as well, just apparently the gameloft hd action games don't. i also have modern combat, brothers in arms and splinter cell and i would love to use the gyroscope as well, because with the left thumb on the analog stick to move and the other thumb for looking around, it's hard to get a third finger on the display for shooting.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] MassPrince:
If u want to play a nice gyroscope shooter i recommend NOVA HD also from Gameloft. :)

Edit:Just tried it and it works really nice as soon as you get used to it. Hope i helped you out a bit.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] THUDUK:
Yes just download the free version through the Gamehub, works a treat with the gyro, so much faster to aim, love it...

So why have Gameloft not introduced the gyro to there other First Person games ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Idan73:
Racing games actually use accelerometer and nova is the only one using gyro. One stinking game in 3 months.

My friend swears up and down that a .ziped system wipe is different then just going into CWR and wiping the data, cache, and divik manually. I tried to reason with him and let him no that wiping the data is your system, but he wont listen. LOL he's like it wipes the partition and the system. I told him the zip file that he's using just contains all the files data, cache, divik to do the all at once. Still the guy is so stubborn.

[Thunderbolt General] mike.s:
So you come in with some pseudo-technical babble (WTF is a ".zipped system wipe?"; "the data is your system," - no, data and system partitions are different). You're obviously looking for some sort of validation that "you're right, your friend's stupid."

Thats what I'm saying that his zip wipe file is the same thing, as doing it manually. I also told him that the manaul data wipe will wipe a parition if you do have a partition. yes my friend is very stupid, I guess you know the type, I guess you do follow the forums a lot.

I hope you're proud, and with your super knowledge decided to tell him there's more than one way to skin a cat. Congrats!

[Thunderbolt General] abvthegod:
I mean you quoted me, But you still didnt read it. I never said he was wrong nor is it wrong to use some kinda of zip file to wipe everything all at once. What he was saying though about the zip file having some magic powers to be more of a wipe then just doing it manually. Thats it I thought it was kinda funny that he was calling it a "whole system wipe" and just wiping the data wouldnt do the samething.
[Thunderbolt General] madsquabbles:
i assume the zip file you're referring to is like the caulkin's wipe all zip (or something like that). it does the same thing that cwr would do, send adb commands to format partitions. nothing really different as they both do the same. either way, "format SYSTEM:" isn't being done.

[Atrix 4G General] mramirezusa:
We always comply about the fragmentation in Android OS, but lately we experience the same thing at DEV/USER level now we have pudding, fruit cake, cheese cake, orange cake, IHOP, **** cake, what else? And for the record I am not trying to troll on anyone by the way I am happy camper with my Atrix, first time from the time I got it that I really enjoy it feeling that it worth what I paid for it. My setup so far: GB ATT OTA 4.5.91 (I applied it knowing the risk, and I don’t regret any second), Unlock BL by pudding & OC by Egan, freezing blot ware with TiBu and Autostart, getting 2970+ Quadrant constantly, NO FC, No battery drain, any weird issue, just a snappy experience.

I saw a lot of misinformation lately trying to get as much of traffic as they can get without thinking the real deal of this forum have the best experience with your device.

Just for the records RSD is indeed an internal Motorola tool BUT is the only way to get your device to out-of-the-box state, so from the resale point is a handy tool. I bet if you ever had the experience to buy a second hand phone, mostly all the time you are looking for something that you can return to the out-of-the-box-state and start modding from a fresh start right? So think on the same way about RSD tools.

I end this just saying that I found my sweet spot on my unit with CONS and PRO like everything else in this life, but with a big smile in my face.

Enjoy the ride!
[Atrix 4G General] Philz:
I have to agree, this is the most fragmented forum I've ever seen. To many tasty delicacies, why not just have a couple, solid, good ones? I doubt we'd ever get CM7 at the rate we are going...
[Atrix 4G General] dac1227:
@mramirezusa, I don't disagree about such correlations in the 'fragmentation' of Android OS and the likeness of the development threads or offerings; however we must give it time to streamline. Looking at similar forums of other 'mature' devices, such as the captivate, one can make the assumption that our own Atrix development forum will follow suit (in their apparent organization) and uniformity. After all, original mods and scripts from March are still being utilized and we are only beginning our third week into GB and unlocked boot loaders, and our international friends just gained some BL access as well yesterday.

I must agree strongly though that the development forum is getting seemingly cluttered, but the rate of production, nor have our spirits, ever been higher.

@philz, keep your head up, mind you three weeks ago, BL was looked until "maybe" our official OTA GB Moto update.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Troop:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mercianary:
From my experience the desire needs about 700ma (3.5w) to charge efectivly (this is the least powerful charger I have that will charge the phone.).

Your solar panel is pumping out a whopping 80ma so I'm not surprised its not charging.

Use current widget (free on market) to see how much juice your using at any given time.

Don't forget no matter how powerfull a charger is it will only charge at 500ma unless the two data pins are shorted.

[HTC Desire S] steste01:
Hi Guys,

Apologies if the following seems easy but I'm new to the rooting scene. Had an iPhone for a while and jailbroke on several occasions but never rooted an android before.

I have a desire S which I would like to root. Here's my plan of action.

1)S-off using alpharevx

2)Download and run ginger break to get root

3)download and install the free application rom manager from android market to flash CWM

5) Use rom manager to perform first full (Nandroid) backup

6) Wipe as per instructions for LBC Mod

7) Flash with LBC Mod

I attained that information on another thread. Here's my questions/concerns:

1. What is CWM? What does it do? Is it the same as ext4?

2. What is the Nandroid backup for? Where does it backup to?

3. Is the LBC Mod any good? Any other recommendations?

4. Will my SD card be wiped during this?

5. Is any of this flashing my radio? What does it mean to flash the radio? Do I need to do it?

6. Any way to backup apps during this? all my contacts and calendars are synced with google so not concerned about those.

I appreciate any and all help If I'm feeling confident enough I'm going to give this a go when I get home from work.
[HTC Desire S] Eastnorth:
to your question

1.

2.

3.LBC Mod is very good

4.no

5.no

6.titanium backup to backup all your apps

I am newbie too...
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
In all honesty you could have used google for a great deal of this, especially CWM and Nandroid backup!

1) CWM (clock work mod) is a recovery program that permits you to perform advance functions (ie backups, restores, formats and flash roms etc) on your device that you wouldnt be able to do with Android alone. Ext4 is an improved version of CWM built from the same code base, which is easier to use and offers more functionality.

2) A nandroid backup is simply a full backup of your device. that you can restore at a later time, including everything except the SD card.

3) I like LBC MOD that’s why I use it.

4) No sd will not be wiped, but everything elseon the device will.

5) None of these steps flashes your radio. The radio is the software on your device that controls your phones interaction with the mobile network and wi-fi. You should only upgrade your radio if its advised in the ROM installation instructions or your experiencing problems. Flashing a radio is in theory more dangerous than flashing a rom.

6) You can backup apps, by using an application like Titanium Backup but its not advised when moving from one ROM to another completely differing one, like you are from stock to LBC.

Good luck

I have attained S-OFF no problems but cant get gingerbreak to work.

Have tried a couple of times. Once it just hung at "rooting" for a long long time so i cancelled it.

Then I thought it was successful as the phone rebooted but ROM Manager is telling me there is no superuser available. What could I be doing wrong?

EDIT: formatted the SD card and tried gingerbreak again.. Success!! Now for some ROM fun......
[HTC Desire S] Adidas108:
did u formatted via phone or some card reader?

i cant get gingerbreak to work...
[HTC Desire S] xIntenso:
Did you actually use an app to test if you have root?

Because it's normal that gingerbreak gives you an error and tells you to reboot.

Do you have superuser after trying?
[HTC Desire S] stonedandhappy:
That's exactly what happened to me but still managed superuser.

Also when I tried to use RomManager it wouldn't work with EXT4, I had to flash CWM instead.

I promised 'Mia' at Zenus a quick review of their Prestige Carbon case for the Galaxy S2 as she was so helpful when I had a small quality problem with the first case they sent (a mark in the carbon finish and a small indentation). I've since received the second one and can state that the quality and finish of these cases is superb. I honestly think that you couldn't buy better quality. There is a caveat that goes with that statement though, see 'cons' below.

Pros

:

Quality is great

The fit to the phone is perfect

The lining is soft and plush

Water resistant finish

Doesn't add much bulk

Light as a feather

Access to power/volume/audio jack while closed

Cutouts for rear speaker & camera are perfectly placed

Cons

:

Very expensive (£28 when converted by PayPal)

Need to open case for access to USB
