[EVO 4G General] packattack12:
I'm right with ya buddy. If i didn't get the 24% discount with Sprint I would have switched when the iphone came out for verizon. Sprints customer service has def improved over the last couple years and they have a little something to do with me staying as well. If sprint gets the iphone i will get it on release day. I can't give up that big discount just for a phone though. If I went over to verizon with my other 4 lines I would be paying at least another 80 bucks a month more, I wanna say closer to $100, thats just redic. I'm gonna hold out until the iphone gets confirmed or not, but if it's not coming to sprint i'm going with the Galaxy S2..

Come onnnn iphone!
[EVO 4G General] Jason Black:
Honestly. If sprint gets an iPhone, ill be kissing my Android evo goodbye. Provided the iPhone has a 4" screen and its 3g capable. New York isn't gonna be getting 4g anytime soon anyway.
[EVO 4G General] AdriVelazquez:
What do you mean? New York has 4g everywhere. Are you talking about upstate or downstate?
[EVO 4G General] Jason Black:
I live downstate. Rockland County and i dont get 4g up here. I dont even get good enough 3g up here. I have to use an airave. Well, Rockland County is sort of the County between upstate and downstate New York. And it seems like sprint and tmobile will be getting the iphone 4s, which is basically the iphone 4 that works on both networks. While at&t and verizon will be totting the new iphone 5. If thats the case, then I'll want no parts in that. I want the new iphone. Not a spoof of the old one. Thats laughable, unless of course if its running ios 2.3.4 and it has all the features of the iphone 5, then they can call it whatever they want. They can even call it, "you're a big dofus dummy" and I'll still buy it.

Could this be a Kingsrom user??? lmao
[EVO 4G General] stinkyprince:
Yeah, but how long has the iphone been out? It was the first of its kind, and there were no competition for it for the longest time. Android is taking over. It is just a matter of time.
[EVO 4G General] dsf3g:
This is true, but considering how spotty 4G coverage is on Sprint, I for one would hardly miss it.

Yeah, when I'm in a WiMAX area it's really sweet, but that's a very rare ocurrence.
[EVO 4G General] Jason Black:
All i know is... When it comes out.. Im getting one. Its nice to have a phone that just works and doesnt have battery issues. I love the evo but memory issues are its downfall. Of course, i'll keep it so i can switch back to it when i want.
[EVO 4G General] Jfree3000:
The only way Android will take over is if the phones don't have as many variations to them. What I mean is when you look at vehicles that come with ipod this iphone that its because its one phone with one style of connector and everyone pretty much has one or the other. Wasn't this the problem we had with Netflix, too many variations (thank god the got it figured out) but for the longest I had to envy my pals with iphones (bastards). Sure Android has a lot of customers but there are too many variations of devices running the system IMHO.
[EVO 4G General] Chewieez:
First off, I will not put any weight on the rumor until I actually see it for sale. I've read rumors of the iphone since it came out.

Second, yea it could screw up Sprints good 3g coverage and speeds and/or it could screw up our unlimited data. Though we already had a problem with unlimited not being unlimited and my unlimited plan needing an extra $10 add-on for more unlimited data. what a joke that was.

I wanted an iPhone when it first came out but I didn't want to leave Sprint. Years later and over a year with my EVO 4G, I have no desire for an iPhone again. I love Android an it's flexibility. I love that I can mount my phone to my computer and access files. I love that I can download a new keyboard because I like it better.

I see no draw for the iPhone but I know TONS AND TONS of people on Sprint would love it and I'm sure buy one.

I'm also a longtime Mac owner, going over 8 years now. My Android integrates very well with my Mac and Google Music Beta rocks. (can't use that on iPhone yet)

Hey guys, sorry if this seems like a noob question but is there anyway to get around the carrier blocking tethering?? I am in australia and on Telstra network and if I try use the factory tethering as soon as it is turned on the data symbol at the top of the screen disappears. I tried running barnacle as well and it wont connect to my laptop or any other computer I try :confused:

Pretty annoyed as I am on quite a large plan so I can get 3GB of data and dont have adsl at my house yet as I have just moved in. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soldiers33:
you could always debrand your phone.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shobirama:
Install Root Explorer and grant it Super User permissions. It appears Super User permissions is the key to writing to the SD card.

With SU permissions, Root Explorer can create/mv/delete/etc files/directories on the SD card. More importantly, Root Explorer also allows copying/moving files between the sd card and internal memory.

If you allow terminal emulator to have SU powers, you can delete (RM) files, move (MV) files (only within the SD card), create (MKDIR) and delete (RMDIR) directories from the command line within terminal.

I found that Astro couldn't create/delete/copy files because it didn't have SU powers on my Xoom. (How do you get Astro into the Super User app list?)

In terminal emulator on my Xoom

cat proc/mounts returns the following

/dev/block/vold/179:1 /mnt/external1 vfat rw,dirsync,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1023,fmask=0702,dmask=0702,allow_utime=0020,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro 0 0

Doesn't this mean that the SD card should be RW to all apps?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lolento:
this is my problem as well ....

Why do u need root to write to SD card???

This is crazy
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willverduzco:
Interesting issue. I hadn't noticed until you pointed it out, and as you state, it doesn't make sense.

Thread moved to QA. Hopefully someone can figure out why.

Also, there's no way to give ASTRO root. The app has to be coded to request SU access.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekarelis:
Actually, the issue is with the fmask=0702, as that masks out write capability from the permissions. Use the following to remount as RW:

adb shell or any other terminal emulator to get to a shell on the xoom

su to get to the # prompt

umount /mnt/external1

mount -t vfat -o fmask=0000,dmask=0000,rw /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.2/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/external1

That remounts the sdcard without using vold, which is enforcing a mask on the permissions.

I was thinking about writing a script/widget to remount it easily, but I don't know if it's a waste of time...
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shobirama:
Can you use vold with a different fmask/dmask?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekarelis:
I didn't see a way to do it in the /etc/vold.fstab file, which is where I assume it goes. I just did this as a work around.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustinweber:
So, I was using CM7 RC4, getting terrible battery life, and wanted to change roms. Problem was, when I started up into Clockwork Recovery, I could not select anything from the menu. I could scroll, but the power button only dimmed the screen, and the trackpad didn't do anything.

So I did a complete wipe, unrooted back to 2.2, etc. Now, I used unrevoked to Re-Root the phone, successfully. I start up into CW Recovery again, and same issue.

So now, I'm stuck with using the "Stock" incredible rom, although I am rooted, and have an nonfunctional clockwork recovery.

I want to be able to install roms. Any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
The trackpad doesn't actually select the item when you click it? Does it work outside of recovery? That would be odd if it just stopped working..
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2776902:
Yeah, does it work outside of recovery? If not it may be a hardware problem. If it does work, you could give AmonRA a try.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustinweber:
The trackpad works to move through the menu, but can't select anything. As for the track"ball" (the center button) working, I've never used it for anything other than rooting my phone for the first time, and it worked then. I don't have any applications that can test out to see if it can "click", so I'm not sure
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustinweber:
actually I've tried using the trackpad button in every way i can think of, even booting with the trackpad button held down, and got nothing. Maybe the button itself is done for.

I have no idea if this is hardware based or what...any thoughts?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
Just try to select something outside of recovery with the trackpad, if it still doesn't work then it sounds like its a hardware issue.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dx0:
Doesn't the camera app with the DInc require you to use the trackpad to "click" to take a picture? I think that's the only time I use my trackpad outside of recovery
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lecapitan:
I'm in a similar boat. My trackpad has stopped working and I'm stuck without being able to move forward in the menus of Clockworkmod.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteveG12543:
Not exactly. If you're using an Evo/AOSP camera, you'll be able to take pictures using the on-screen button.

It’s only been a few hours since Google announced the all new (WP7-ish?) Android Market version 3.0.26. If you didn’t feel like waiting a few weeks for it to hit your device, @Eminembdg from Twitter was nice enough to provide the leaked apps and I’ve gone ahead and uploaded the extracted app for you to install NOW.

That’s right, guys. Just download from your phone’s browser and install like a normal app. It’s currently working great on my HTC Desire HD although I’m not sure if this will work on phone’s equipped with Android 2.1 and lower (per Google) but I don’t think that will stop you from trying, right? Let us know if it works for you! Enjoy!

Oh — and if the new Market ISN’T your cup of tea or starts to act a little wonky, you can always go back to the old Market following these simple steps:

Go into your phone’s Settings

Select “Manage Applications”

Select the “All” tab at the top

Scroll down to Market app and select it

Select “Uninstall Updates”

Now have your old Market back!

[Vibrant General] J017373:
So i was odin-ing back to stock when for some reason Odin stopped. I start freaking out cause what else am i gonna do. My wife hates that i play with my phone.

Back in the early days of vibrant i effed up a voodoo lagfix (was able to fix it), but it cost me $50 buck when i had to send the replacment phone back after fixing mine.

So (like a noob) i unplug my phone and leave it in download mode. Nothings working.

I turn the phone off (again LIKE A NOOB), and it give me this angry picture of a cell connected to a PC...

Lost my Sh*t!!!!

However, was able to get into download mode, retore stock, and avoid a sexless month.

So, who has a good OMGZ-BRICKED-MY-PONE-OH-WAIT-NO-I-DIDNT moment...
[Vibrant General] jneal9:
I'd be willing to bet 99% of people on this forum have had this go down and freaked out the first time. It's one of those things that's inevitable when messing with this stuff. :D
[Vibrant General] GreggoryD502:
i feel ya bro. I once spent 3.5 hours trying to odin before it went thru. I was sick to my stomach. Thought my phone was done!!
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
I once used a broken USB cable that I broke earlier (but forgot). It made very VERY poor contact with the phone so it disconnected if the phone was touched.

I used that cable with ODIN. Needless to say, it disconnected MANY times and I kept thinking I'm done. Finally I remembered the cable is broken and then I TOOK IT AND HELD IT AS TIGHT AS POSSIBLE with the USB contact.

Scarriest hour of my life.

I pulled the USB early, just before Odin says completed, on a bootloader flash. Holy **** what a scary moment. It booted up fine though.

Haha I did this too outdated odin and bootloaders dont mix. I had to flash it at least 5 times to get it to take. Odin wouldnt recognize on the com after every bad flash unless I reboted. The last time I couldnt get back to download so I flashed it in the phone!pc screen with a different odin and it worked like a charm. Stomach was churning like it was trying to make butter lol.
[Vibrant General] Oxirane:
First time I used ODIN my roomate accidentally unplugged my phone (cable was crazy loose)... wound up on the phone---!---PC screen and that was scary as crap. Took a little while, but I figured it out :)

Basically, unless you're in the realm of bootloaders, this phone is difficult enough to brick (which I'm very thankful for!)

Tried to flash my phone while driving, I hit a road bump and next thing, I know ODIN stopped working and my phone had a bunch of garbage display on the screen.

C*0000000*** something like that.

used Jig back to download mode. But the remaining 30 minutes drive back to my desk was horrifying.
[Vibrant General] Steprock:
Been there, done that

You tried to flash your phone while driving?? :confused:

I used Clockwork mod to flash back to a Rom I liked better with a nandroid backup and it just got into a bootloop. I kept trying, but the only thing I could get to work was to Odin back to a stable Eclair build I had on hand.

BUT it gave me a red FAIL and just stopped mid-way through. However, when I unplugged and started my phone it came up just fine. PHEW!

Hours of fiddling and my wife was also all like "What the heck are you doing??? Can't you leave well enough alone???"

No. Of course not.
