Compare the bands from this (Photon):

To this (EVO 3D):

http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/fcc_query.php?gc=NM8&pc=PG86100

CDMA 800 is a general range.
[EVO 4G General] mikeyinid:
If you run a business from your phone, the photon is gonna be the best option for you. The docking to the computer is very convenient and battery life is a huge plus...
[EVO 4G General] Zac95:
So battery wise... photon>3d?
[EVO 4G General] charm1950:
If it doesn't have root, then I'll pass.
[EVO 4G General] mikeyinid:
It will be rooted pretty quick. Atrix was rooted release day I believe. Motos on gb haven't been nearly as difficult to root as say...HTC...
[EVO 4G General] mikeyinid:
Photon has a claimed 10 hour talk time...
[EVO 4G General] Android 17:
The Atrix was not rooted the first day. It's only just recently been fully unlocked due to a system leak.

Unless some of the Atrix's system files aid with rooting the Photon, or there's a specific leak with the Photon (possibly, but unlikely to happen right away), don't count on this being fully rooted anytime soon.

if rooting is that important to you, I would certainly not get this phone.

The only real benefits I see to this phone over the EVO3D and upcoming products is that it will be a World-phone, it has higher built-in storage memory, and it has better built-in security if you intend to use the phone as a business phone.

Looks like the Atrix 4G is getting a unlocked bootloader with an update . I'm sure the photon will get one
[EVO Shift 4G General] stormchaser404:
Ok, not sure if this is going to be cool with the moderators or not, so if not, lock/delete it. I have an idea...let's encourage the devs to spend a bit more time looking at the EVO Shift...by offering up a cash incentive to the first person or team that gets us properly rooted on Gingerbread. Maybe offer to Paypal them some cash? i know I'd chip in. Heck, right now I'll say I'll paypal $50 to the first person or team that gets me rooted. If everyone chipped in, even a few bucks, it could really add up and create an incentive...
[EVO Shift 4G General] notsointeresting:
I know people want the update but honestly the devs are working on it and giving them money isnt going to make them come up with a soultion faster they need time.

Now when they release something a donation is a great way to say thanks but we dont want to rush them
[EVO Shift 4G General] Stuke00:
I haven't heard about anyone working on it. I believe they are working on it for other devices.

Throw me down for $50 as well.
[EVO Shift 4G General] stormchaser404:
So, we've got $100 already...come on...lets offer some incentive for the devs to come back to the EVO Shift for a while...
[EVO Shift 4G General] notsointeresting:
Im telling you the devices they work on are related to the shift and they can port the same methods. They are already working on the shift and other devices related to it
[EVO Shift 4G General] stormchaser404:
So, therefore us offering a reward helps not only Shift owners but others too. Fantastic!

Hey I will throw in 25 bucks for " the cause". I hate all the bloatware in my unrooted gingerbread. It feels like I'm carrying around dead weight. I don't even enjoy my phone anymore. PLEASE HELP ME.
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
I remember the same talk regarding rooting 2.2.... everyone saying no one was working on it and then BAM! Root.

The thing is development doesn't get done on XDA. When it's done it gets posted to XDA. Just because you don't see it happening doesn't mean it ain't. Imagine you're a dev: Would you post that you're working on it if you're unsure if you can do it? It'd accomplish nothing but dissapointment.

reward

Last i checked theres a reward offer in the Evo forum also. It was up to 300 i think a couple days ago.
[EVO Shift 4G General] stormchaser404:
Nice! Hopefully once one is rooted, either one, the other one will be that much easier.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Hotrod518:
I know it is fustrating to wait I am among the many waiting for the same thing. That being said you never hear what the developers are working on because they dont want to give off any clues to htc as to what they are doing so HTC dont send a silent OTA to seal up any exploits that may gain root for us. But to the team that does get the job dont I will be donating to them definatly I cant wait to get my hotspot back for my Iconia Tablet when I am on the road.

I would throw in 50 to 100 just to get this ****ty rom off my phone and a hooker to tongue there balls.

[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
I saw on Twitter that Fre3vo is supposed to be updated to support the Shift now. So that should mean that at least temp root is possible.

[HTC EVO 3D] etymos:
just curious if there is a way to remove the short cut icons on the lockscreen ....i dont ever use em and I'm never planing on to..
[HTC EVO 3D] pinky059:
Yup,

go into settings--->personalize--->lockscreen. Choose the lockscreen you want but don't hit apply yet. Now, you should see settings on the bottom right or something like that. Click that....and it will show you the 4 icons. Tap the one you want to replace and the app menu will popup giving you your options...

boom!! easy as pie!!

[G2 and Desire Z General] rahulkrathod:
hi,

Received my desire z today. And planning to root it. I am coming from wildfire so this is a little different.

My phone is not locked to any carrier. I can use any sim card in it.

my firmware version is : 1.34.720.6

S-ON

Hboot is 0.85.0005

These questions are haunting me:

1.Do i need to do a S-Off to be able to flash custom roms? or is my hboot good enough to install custom roms with just root and S-On.

2.will i have any problems without soff and only root? like flashing radios or kernals?

I am assuming i dont need a sim unlock because its unbranded anyways. correct me if i am wrong. but gfree does sim unlock along with s-off.

I tried searching but dint get any results. please help. Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] c00ller:
The only answer I know is you won't be able to flash anything through the bootloader. That means if you want to flash a radio or any other PC10IMG.zip, you have to find a recovery-flashable version and flash it through your recovery (the unsafe way). Kernels are normally flashed through recovery so that is not an issue.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rahulkrathod:
Oh yeah. i understand that. perhaps i dint frame my question right.

I am going to install a custom recovery. say Clockwork.

But is root + custom recovery is good enough to flash roms and kernels etc or is S-Off compulsory?
[G2 and Desire Z General] ionut.micu:
1. You need S-OFF to be able to flash custom roms, or clockworkmod recovery.

2. With S-ON (I think) you will be able to flash new radios, but considering that you will not be able to flash clockworkmod recovery you will not be able to flash custom kernels.

Considering that you can use any SIM card you don't need SIM unlock, but if you want custom roms, and kernels you will need S-OFF and clockworkmod recovery

To gain s-off you have this tool, but I have never used it, I gain S-ff downgrading from 1.72 to 1.34 using this tutorial , but you already have version 1.34 so you have to start from step 13.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rahulkrathod:
Thanks. I had one more question. Is hboot 0.85.0005 rootable? Can I just follow the guide you provided?
[G2 and Desire Z General] ionut.micu:
Yes it is, you can follow the guide starting from step 13, the steps from 1 to 12 are used to downgrade the software to the version 1.34 witch you already have.

Or try to use AMT i think it is easier.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rahulkrathod:
Thanks buddy. Rooted!
[LG Optimus 2x] rasimkor:
i tried all versions cwm s but some roms gives this annoying message when i try to install my phone. i couldnt find what i do wrong. i tried to install these roms after i flashed to stock but it didnt work. pls help me . i cant try most of roms because of this problem. what should i do to fix this problem .
[LG Revolution] Nooben:
Much to my chagrin, and to yours too, you will find that Verizon has decided to remove the LG Revolution's innate ability to function as a hotspot without payment of an additional charge. Most likely, if you rooted the phone before last week, you will not be affected. However, I didn't root mine until the other day when thecubed's rom popped up and today found that my hotspot capability had already been removed. I don't really want to pay 20 bucks a month for something I already paid for, so maybe we could get a little gift from the pros here.

Well done, but I still have the S-OFF. Does it matter when the claim or not? to complain. :confused:
[HTC Incredible S] m.kochan10:
No way to unroot if permanent s-off?

May I ask you about some details? Which RUU did you applied and so on?

I unlocked bootloader with xtc clip, rooted device my and am running the latest ARHD now. Everything works fine except when I try to unroot (flash the stock gingerbread). It seems to be just impossible. It doesn't matter if I try to run ruu on my Vista och use goldcard method I always get either "error [130]: model ID error" or "model id error uppdate fail"

I've used two sd-cards: Kingston 2mb that worked perfect on my old Legend and original Sandisk 8mb that was shipped with my Incredible S. I followed all possible tutorials step by step but without effect. I always get the same error.

I live in Sweden and I bought my device from retailer. I'm not really sure what's the valid RUU version for our region so I've used:

RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.12.405.7_Radio_20.2804.30.085AU_3805.04.03.22_M_release_187295_signed

RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.30.405.1_Radio_20.2808.30.085AU_3805.06.03.03_M_release_199308_signed (especially this due to the same program and radio version)

but even optus and RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_KT_KR_2.32.1010.1_Radio_20. 2810.30.085AU_3805.06.03.16_M_release_199684_signe d.

Unfortunately it's always the same error after reboot into bootloader. Has anybody of you (that used xtc clip but not only) faced the same problem? Is there any way to bypass it? I will be very very grateful for any answer.
[HTC Incredible S] jkolner:
If you are S-OFF with a XTC-Clips, you can't get S-ON, because it's a "hardware" S-OFF:
[HTC Incredible S] m.kochan10:
Thanks a lot for reply but well...It's not what I asked :) I was asking about unrooting (just pure taking away this little f... pirate and possibility to come back to stock rom:D) I'm totally aware of permanent character of my unlocked bootloader.

Anyway I solved problem with help of two threads: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1070348&page=7 and this about canadian dudes' problem with their PG32120 devices and bell stock. As it turned out I accidently change my Modelid during s-offing and wrote it as PG321200, which i didn't know until i succesfully installed ENG s-off and rebooted bootloader todays afternoon. I used xtc clip again (I had to re-create goldcard - hboot 0.99x200 (bell) though) and reverted quite easily back to my original PG3213000. After that I installed RUU without any single issue. Just ENG s-off disappeared, but I can live without that :)
[HTC Incredible S] ste1164:
Can you not downgrade the HBOOT then run said RUU with a gold card. Or you could extract the ROM.zip and use that in HBOOT mode.
[HTC Incredible S] m.kochan10:
Believe me I tried several times and it didn't work as long as I had modelid PG321200. Once I changed model id with xtc clip problem disappeared :)

It worked fine for me and so did for a few others but I heard recently that there are some changes in AlphaRevX and the bootloader needs to be downgraded now.

I S-off my phone long ago when AlphaRevX method was just introduced so may be that's why my bootloader was overwritten by the Rom easily.

[Milestone XT720 General] S7icky:
Hey. Just couple random questions... if i do a nandroid backup of my stock rom if i mess something up it will go back to stock with all the same apn's. I haad issues with them last time i flashed a phone on winds network. It made me keep switching from mms and g3 to use either one.

And whats the best way to do a backup should i remove all my apps and launcher
[Milestone XT720 General] Woody:
If you back up the top 5 items in your choices (system, Data, Cache, CDrom and forget what the 5th is), you should be ok. Meaning it will save everything as-is at that point. Most important are System and Data (and sd-ext if you have app2ext or Link2sd**this will save your apps too in their partition).

System is all your build props, system apps (if you added or deleted some),...

Data is what it is named for. (sms, playlists, passwords, websites,...)

Not sure why you would want to remove your apps and launcher.

Basically you are making a complete back up so if you do screw something up, you can go back to where you were before the fail. Much like a System Restore Point on Windows (but that is where the similarites end).
[Milestone XT720 General] S7icky:
I just dident know if apps could mess up the restore of the backup.

thanks :)

Is it getting stuck at the (M) logo? Which ones did you backup/restore? (boot?, system?, data?, cache? others?) Did you wipe any partitions?
[Milestone XT720 General] leuleu9x:
Motoroi 2.2.1

I backup and restore: boot , system. After the restose, I wipe all ,but it only boots to logo M then stop :(
[Milestone XT720 General] Woody:
I was having this problem when all these new ROMs came out and was constantly flashing between them. Try to re-restore it again and then wipe both caches and factory reset. My issue was with the data backup but since you didn't back up the data might be something different with yours.

If all else fail, just flash whatever ROM you started with and start over. Since you didn't save the data part, you'll have to replace all that stuff and modify your /system folder if you did that before.

Youre welcome. Glad I was able to help. If Im not mistake the "no commitment" pricing always stays the sames no matter who your provider is. The HD7 on T-Mobile is still priced at $499.99 without contract. The only price that drops is the contract price. Im sure AT&T will start rolling out with promotions on smartphones pretty soon. After all the new school year is right around the corner and there are always discounts during that time but of course that only if your signing up for a new contract. =/

plz help...
[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
Hello, I have read this, this, this and this, and I've also followed these instructions, but I am still confused on how to get this OpenVPN client working on my device.

My OpenVPN server works good, since I am able to connect to it from every PC which is configured correctly.

Of course, I think the problem is due to the following two (well known) lines, in the openvpn.log file:

Options error: Unrecognized option or missing parameter(s) in [PUSH-OPTIONS]:1: route (2.1.1)
Options error: Unrecognized option or missing parameter(s) in [PUSH-OPTIONS]:5: ifconfig (2.1.1)

In the openvpn.log file, on the server, it seems to be all OK with the handshake. Actually the client is authenticated and the IP seems to be assigned, even if I cannot ping or do whatever else.

The file I use on the client to get access credentials on the server are the following:

ca.crt
home.conf
saga.crt
saga.csr
saga.key
ta.key

Of course the openvpn client says "connected" at the end of handshake.

What is not so clear to me is that I have to do some "hack" into the device (like symbolic link or something else) in order to get it working. Is there a "official" and definitive procedure to get it working? I am asking this because I have seen many different procedures and, as I've said, I am a little bit confused. Why don't they fix the apk in the market, of course if this is necessary?
