[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] boomski17:
I have figured out the reason behind hulu not working on rooted devices. The issue is most roms have a updated host file to block ads. Hulu will not move forward without playing an ad and is unable to pull up any ads due to it being blocked.

I was able to fix this by using FS File Explorer (free app) and within the program I enabled the root settings for root explorer and mount file system. You need to changed these settings in order to edit and save the host file.

I found my host file under the root of the phone under ect/host and opened the file using the ES note editor which comes with the FS File Explorer program. Since the file is so large you have to be extremely patient in editing the file. It took a few seconds to pull up the keyboard and there is a 3 sec delay when deleting a character. What I did is looked for the following entries:

edgefcs.net

hulu.112.2o7.net

huludev.112.2o7.net

ll.a.hulu.com

track.hulu.com

a.huluad.com

ads.hulu.com

t2.hulu.com

After deleting and saving my host file hulu played its ads and moved forward to playing video after it without issue. It is possible that your host file may have more or less entries that hulu uses that are blocked depending on the rom you are running.

Before I edited my host file and had issues hulu stated “you video will start after this advertisement” there was a more info button on the top right. What I did is click on it and it would pull up the website of the ad. If it was block you would get a similar page can’t be displayed error and it would show the link of the ad server. I would search for that domain on my host file and remove it. The one I found was the edgefcs.net entry.

I am on a Rooted Thunderbolt running the Perfect Storm v1.5 Rom.

Hope this helps!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spaceKomet:
Hello

I have a problem with connecting s2 to car stereo via usb. Stereo simply doesn't recognize it. I have music on my external sd which is formated in Fat32.

I suspect that issue is that radio doesn't support two mounts (internal and external sd) at the same time. (I have the same problem in linux, unitl I compiled scsi multi driver into kernel, which obviously I cannot do with my car stereo )

Is there any app or widget that would mount only external sd ?

Possibly without rooting....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uvaavu:
Interested in if there's a way to only mount external_sd too - all my files are on external_sd, all my apps on sd_card. Not mounting sd_Card would mean they continue to work when I'm transferring files hopefully...

Anyone?
[HTC Incredible S] bracketologist:
I'm a brand new Canadian Incredible S owner looking to root and flash new roms. I've been reading a lot of forum posts and have some questions about flashing roms and radios. I'm coming from the Desire (Bravo) and on that phone, I've always flashed roms and radios via CWM recovery. However, it seems that for the IncS, many users have instead flashed them through HBOOT.

Here's what I want to do:

- Apply S-OFF via Alpharevx, install CWM, and root

- Take the 2.30.405.1 stock GB ruu, extract the rom.zip, remove the HBOOT and recovery files, and root it via dsixda's kitchen

- Flash the rooted GB rom and radio via CWM

So...can it be done this way through CWM? Or does the flashing of both the rom and radio have to go through HBOOT?

I apologize if this topic has been mentioned before, but it seems as if things aren't quite as simple as my old Desire was and I want to make sure that what I'm planning to do won't ruin the phone.
[HTC Incredible S] gudge:
I'm not sure about this, but I think you can flash .zip ( Rom, radio, recovery etc) either through hboot or recovery, only difference being that for hboot the zip has to have the specific name ( PG32IMG.zip or sometimes like that). Could somebody confirm if this is correct ?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
The latest version of dsixda's HTC kitchen now supports adding a radio.img to the rom.zip file that gets generated, so you can just flash your custom rom using CWM and not have to flash the GB radio separately.
[HTC Incredible S] bracketologist:
Thanks for the info. If I do this through CWM, do I still have to worry about changing the Model ID since I have the Canadian model? Or is that something that only comes up if I flash through HBOOT?

And I'm guessing that I only have to worry about having the ENG HBOOT if I flash the radio through HBOOT. This also shouldn't be an issue if I do it through CWM as well. Is this right?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
No you don't have to worry about changing the Model ID when you flash a custom ROM using CWM. It only comes into play when flashing a PG32IMG.zip using HBOOT.

In fact I have already done the process you are going to undertake. I have a Canadian IncS and I took the latest 2.30.405.1 WWE ROM.zip and cooked it using dsixda's kitchen and my Phone Info now shows Model Number HTC IncS S710e, not S710a as it did before.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mission:
Hi,

My touch screen is very erratic and the fone is 2 years old on 5th nov 2011.

As I understand the fone has 2 years warranty I have changed the rom image from vodafone to generic HTC so I would have to change it back.

Has anyone sent there fone back for anythin? I'm wondering if vodafone will have anything to do with it or if I'll have to go through HTC direct and if anyone will want the origional invoice as I'm not sure I have it.

Any thoughts?
[Acer Iconia A500] entropy.of.avarice:
Just scored this case from Amazon - only $30usd - quite well made and really fits our tablets well. Does not block either camera or light sensor - and my mic seems to be working fine with the tablet in the case.

Amazon link to product: http://tinyurl.com/5vrjxl2
[Acer Iconia A500] The Odom Project:
i second this case. Since I have bought it I have been more than happy with its quality and functionality. I also have had people remark about it, and exclaim when they realized they payed more for a lower quality case.
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
Is this case available on ebay??....
[Acer Iconia A500] rchrdcrg:
I'm also going to say, having just got my roocase today and having returned one of the official Acer cases, this case is great. It's pretty bulky, but it's a good kind of bulk, and it feels extremely sturdy. I wish it could lay flatter but at an angle.. as it is, it'll go to about forty degrees from flat, and thirty would've been better, but it's still way better than the official case unless you really want something lightweight, which I do have to give that one to Acer.
[Acer Iconia A500] mevensen:
I can't figure out if this is different from the rooCase "Slim Fit".

I don't like the typical bulk of the full folio-style cases, I'm wondering if the "Slim Fit" case (or the Blurex, as they look almost identical) is a nice middle ground, as the Acer case has not been received well for its durability/life expectancy (and smell/fuzz collection attributes).
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
Do any of these cases ship to india??
[Acer Iconia A500] strider_mt2k:
I recently purchased the RooCase from Amazon, and after about a week of use I'm still extremely pleased with it.

I posted a review on Amazon about it.

I looked at a few other cases, but this one is really great quality of materials and construction and is very well designed.

It does add a little bulk, but as stated it s the good kind of bulk that tells you you don't have to guard your tablet now.
[Acer Iconia A500] Jetchn:
How about this one:www dhgate com/pv-ff80808130ff1696013107bbfd385168.html

Any one used it and can post a review?

Sorry i'm a new here
[Acer Iconia A500] xjarl:
Why not a slim fit case?

Sllim fit case for my Iconia...
[Acer Iconia A500] strider_mt2k:
Probably because we didn't want the slim fit case? (Thought it is also nice)

(There is a thread for that one, BTW.)

After carrying mine around for a while I'm still extremely pleased with it.

This thing is a winner.
[Acer Iconia A500] manfly9884:
Just got this case yesterday and all I can say so far is that I love it. Secure, great quality and very practical. Highly recommended.

I'm currently running the Miui Rom for my HTC desire HD

And do you know whether i can install it like a normal application or i have to do some trick.

Thanks :)

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] swaser18t:
Is there a way to highlight copy and paste with the pen. Didnt it show a way to highlight by holding the bottom button. Iv tried but it never highlights like it shows in the tutorial?? Highlighting copy paste should be the key feature to the view
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
Only in some apps which support the pen :(

And yes, I also think that this is a imperfection of the Flyer that HTC didn't integrate the pen in the OS self.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kcchen:
You can probably highlight text (not ink) with the back of the pen... using as a capacityive stylus. Could be a little more accurate.

Highly recommend a screen protector if plan to put the metal tip to glass.

Holaa!

I have created a patch to make the statusbar void.#forever rom looks transparent.

for Mik's CM7 deodexed rom+patched by mastershefis, go here.

for miks cm7 original patch go here (unstable) or here

for void UPDATE patch, go to the 2nd post ;)

for CM7Matt (untested) go here

for Andy's Phoenix Rom by mastershefis go here

in here, i will share with you guys ;)

1. Do It With Your Own Risk

2. Nandbackup

3. download patch.zip

4. flash patch.zip from recovery (CWM ONLY)

5. reboot.

6. install Meizu theme (or other themes for CM7 that support transparent statusbar) and choose from theme chooser.

*if you use ADW Launcher, uncheck wallpaper hack to get transparent statusbar. if use another launcher, use multipicture wallpaper.

*if doesnt works, you need to be applied twice it means: install patch.zip> reboot, install undo.zip> reboot and finally install patch.zip and enjoy :) (lil' bit annoying)

*if you wanna back to original statusbar, just flash the undo.zip from CWM recovery or do nandrestore.

It did for me. Statusbar would FC at first. But then flashed zduneX25's original(the meizu patch) and then this over that on a clean backup. At least that's what I remember doing from yesterday...
