[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc iz 2 legit:
ok guys im trying again im still having the same problems as OP everything works fine over wifi and 4g is a little spotty but pretty stable for the most part and i didnt have issues till i went to the newest radio i have done just about everything and i mean everything battery pulls flashing, recover and evan go to bone stock and i did manage to get 3g working again but then 4g wouldent connect and evan than 3g was not that stable so i personally think the radios are some how damaged from radio flashing anybody have this happen to them
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimmyk0789:
I'm also having this problem but I'm.using CM7 1.2 with the MR2 radio I get 4g but when I go to web pages it won't load if I switch to 3g only the pages load. this is really pissing me off because I call Verizon and let them know about the issue and they say nothing is wrong even those they say they are receiving many calls about the problems and try to trouble shoot me I'm not stupid I know more about this phone then them. Btw I also tired mutliple radios and roms and still no lucky I'm in Houston Texas
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knothead:
I do not think its a root or radio issue. I have Th3roy on mine with the leaked radio its got no google voice or browser on 4g, 3g is fine. One of my buddies ahd two non rooted tb's they're both doing exactly the same thing.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimmyk0789:
call verizon beacuse you are not the only one i posted the number in the 4g issues thread already this is pissing me off because i tried many roms and radios and no luck:mad:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dak_181:
you probably ruined the connectors on the battery cover. theres some little gold tabs on the back that connect to the phone and act as an antenna. before you try anything else i would try getting a new battery cover. also try pulling out your sim card to see if theres anything blocking the connectors.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ///Ficarra:
Verizon is having some techs check their end of things. They want to see if there is a problem with their network before they send me a phone. I pretty much know it's not the network, as nobody else is having this issue in my area, and I've traveled outside of my area with the same issues. I guess I have to wait patiently until they decide to replace my phone. :(
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkilla:
I have no issues when i switch to CDMA Auto PRl, I get zero 3g drops in data.

However, when i have it set to CDMA + LTE I always get 4G and 3g drops in data.

Whatever the problem is, they need to fix it, its getting ridiculous not being able to use 4G all the time.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bonstio:
So I finally got a replacement Desire Z after my last one was fried (see my other posts) probably from months of hardwork at high CPUs.

Problem is I'm in the US for a while now (and this is a Swiss phone). I have the stock Swisscom firmware on. ISTR it was a PITA to root and install CM on so I haven't yet bothered.

My question is this: using my tmobile simcard, the phone only gets EDGE. Suck. Please can someone tell me this *isn't* a hardware problem? If I flash CM or switch some funky setting will I get 3G / HSDPA speeds?

Thanks for any info.

hopfully this will help devs port it over once rom is out
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
Holy crap awesome!

Probably going to need some custom built security libraries though that won't be easy to port. The .apk itself should be easy enough as it's built for the Teg2.

And Netflix was trying to tell us that they needed protected hardware sandboxing for HD content. What jerks.

sassafras
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bigdoof:
Porting it over seems unlikely. The Lenovo actually contains a physical DRM chip that's required for Netflix to run. At this point, it doesn't look like Netflix will ever appear on early Honeycomb tablets. Even if it does, it'll be a highly neutered version.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
I just completed reading an article about that.

I guess with a little decompiling it might be possible to trick the new Netflix .apk into ignoring the DRM module.

If not, it'll be back to what I know and love: Piracy Arghh!

sassafras
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xTRICKYxx:
Isn't a little late for a Tegra 2 Tablet to jump in the game when Kal-El and similar chips are rearing its head for this fall? But these devices are going to be built well, I'm sure.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tekkitan:
Thats an old rumor. They have been using software DRM since the official Android app was released. They just need to port it over to honeycomb.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
Not an old rumor. They're using software DRM now, but only for SD content. Content owners are still demanding hardware sandboxing if you want HD content.

Piracy for me in the meantime.

sassafras
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Artood2s:
I'll take a 480P streaming version if I can get it. Doesn't look too bad on the TF. The fact that phones/tablets on 2.3 can run the regular Netflix app proves that it's not impossible on a Tegra 2. If they use the hardware excuse for older 3.0+ tablets, then you know it's a cop-out.

But yeah, all this HW DRM crap for HD content sucks.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gripnrip:
I can see it in the store and install it now on my Transformer, but whenever I try to play something I get an error.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zephiK:
We could install Netflix since the 8.4.4.11 OTA. Same issue with streaming though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wynand32:
True that... I see that the Netflix app now supports the Atrix, which should be pretty much equivalent to the Honeycomb tablets (no DRM chip, Tegra 2). I'm perfectly fine with SD content on the TF, really. I currently use PlayOn for both Hulu and Netflix, and I'm pretty sure that never gets to HD levels but is still perfectly watchable.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bitter1:
I installed Netflix once it was visible (after the OTA) but today when I try to update it to the new version, I get "The requested item could not be found"
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Uberg33k:
I found the new version and sideloaded it. You get the same error as before. If someone could dump the APK from the Lenovo, we might be in business.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] 54lzy:
Netflix is the last thing missing from my Transformer. If someone could get that working, I'd be beyond happy!

[Eee Pad Transformer General] zephiK:
It's working on other Honeycomb tablets. That's for sure.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] codeles:
Android Central have it working on a Tab: http://www.androidcentral.com/new-n...mpaign=Feed:+androidcentral+(Android+Central)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Uberg33k:
I tried loading it with wifi off and you can see it's just loading a webpage. The address is

https://uiboot.netflix.com/apps/mob...46&sdk_version=3.0&sw_version=1.3.0 build 246

If we could find the address for a working honeycomb tab, I bet you it would work on the Transformer.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] player911:
Netflix just checks your device id and lets you know if it's allowed or not. This is why editing your build.prop allows it to work.

It works on the tegras just fine. We have it on our G2x phones by editing them. Asus just has to pay Netflix to add the transformer to the good list. I'm starting to hate Netflix.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Uberg33k:
* for rooted TF's.

This doesn't work for unrooted TF's.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AustinMartin:
I think the issue is that the transformer os is missing a system library file. This might be released in the 3.2 upgrade.

I don't think it has anything to do with "paying" netflix. Why would netflix not want to be on every tablet?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
That's exactly what it's missing. See the above post about the fix? It's the system library pulled from the XOOM.

Voila :)

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josh7143:
Is it possible to connect an Android phone via USB Debugging to the Transformer's USB port to be able to send ADB commands to the phone?

I don't have the TF yet, so haven't tried, but thought I'd get some insight from others if anyone has had success.

Thanks in advance!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majedev:
Well, it used to be working before the latest firmware upgrade. Maybe I lost it because my device is unrooted now.

Anyways, adb binary is installed by default, but it fails to detect my phone.

Will keep you posted.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majedev:
Just to confirm, it's working after rooting my device (using the latest firmware 8.4.4.11). ADB to Samsung Galaxy ACE.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biggiehead:
so i just flashed my epic back to stock but i find myself in dilemma? should I update the software to eco5 or efo2 also what are the major differences between the two. Any answers are appreciated.

If it helps i do plan on installing the new acs updater app that they just released

and if ones a better battery saver
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deano0714:
Well ef02 can be unstable for some people but I get great battery with it... like 5 hours screen on time and its GINGERBREAD!! Ec05 is more stable and srf is great, I just couldn't wait for gingerbread... I would reccomend for ef02 marcusiants rom that you can find on the acs site and for ec05 I would reccomend syndicate rom frozen with genocide... battery life is great on that too... hope this helped :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killasmoke:
Stay on ec05 download sfr 1.2 put it on sd card download either genocide kernel 1.1 or 2.0 after flashing sfr 1.2 you got to flash the kernel then reboot & like what you see
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris41g:
I would try them both, it doesnt take long to flash.. there are quite a few options for ec05 roms, not as many ef02 roms.. of course I recomend my roms, EF02Plus, and EC05Plus built for speed and stability... and SRF 1.2 (EC05 ROM) from ACS
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shinydude100:
I reccommend EC05 stock. Then Root your phone. Then find 'Root Installer' on the market, and remove Sprint's Bloatware. (Be careful though, removing the wrong things can cause instability so read carefully and backup apps.)

I miss the power widget that was packaged in the original loader, it's not worth going back just for the widget. What are your favorites?
[LG Revolution] crt_ben:
What's wrong with the power widget in the pull down notification bar? I still have that after flashing the decrapped rom, and I love it.
[LG Revolution] Jasbo:
you cant customize it.. and it doesnt have everything in it the original widget did..

I too liked the factory power switches.. right now im using the Android Optimizer power widgets..
[LG Revolution] crt_ben:
Gotcha - the only widget I used on my Moto Droid was the stock Android 2.2 widget, so the notification bar widget is enough for my needs - it's basically the same thing only in a more convenient place :)
[LG Revolution] K0G:
I'll take a look at the droid built in app. Thanks Ben. What I'm missing is the grouped switches on one widget. That and to be able to turn off sync without digging in settings.
[LG Revolution] Blammo79:
I use "Free Power Widget"...im just trying it out, but will probably pay for the full version as I think its pretty good and customizeable...So far so good.

Just tried Extended Controls and Widgetsolid but both have broken functions e.g. gps and sync.

DInc 2 ROOT

Has any one tried CDMA Workshop or MITTY?

I read on one of those XTC Clip sites that the process writes a new CID (00000000).

I'm not sure what that means, but back in my Mogul days it the way to access permission th do many things.

Mainly the BOOTLOADER.

1.	Boot PPC Holding power button and camera button to enter bootloader

2.	Bootloader should show Olipro 2.4 Hard SPL

3.	Start up mtty, and connect via USB

4.	run command "rtask a"

5.	run command "echo_on"

6.	run command "readCID" (Check the Original CID)

7.	run command "writeCID 00000000"

8.	run command "readCID"

9.	verify the new CID in indeed set!

10.	run command "retuoR"

11.	run command “rtask c”

Not sure if this will work with stock bootloader.

All I have right now is a DInc I.

If someone with a DInc II would try this and let us know if this will work with GB...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phillybizzle:
omg I totally forgot that I made a backup copy of my old dinc2 that was rooted/s-off. it has the system.img recovery.img md5 the whole 9 yards. and I do believe its signed too. someone wanna check out the files?????????????????
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tdavis42:
I have CDMAflashingSoftware.com's suite for all phones but you don't need the software if you can use a gold card because it allows you to flash generic roms with different CID's.

Be careful handing out the backup you made as it probably has personal info contained in it. Think about who it is your giving it to before you give it to them. Just sayn'
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jcase:
Doesn't work that way
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kimbernator:
When gingerbread is released officially, I assume there will be a new PD15IMG.zip.

If I ever catch the sensation 4g for free on-contract my mom is gonna get it and take my mytouch 4g as her phone. At this point I will want to return it to stock, however I've heard that doing this can be tough when you have a radio that is not stock (I have the first GB leak's radio) In addition I have the engineering hboot.

Apperantly using the PD15IMG that we have now can really mess up your phone if you have those things. When the new one comes out (Apparently within a couple of days) will I be able to use this successfully as all of the pieces (Hboot, radio) will be higher numbers/versions than what I currently have so I can return it to gingerbread stock?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synaesthetic:
Did you root using the psneuter and gfree method?

If so, you can restore to stock using the part7backup files made during the rooting process. This thread tells you how to do it. The stock PD15IMG.zip contains the stock ROM's radio, so it'll overwrite the GB leak's radio.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mark manning:
Using the pd15img wont screw your phone up. You can use the any one of them and your phone will get updated to gingerbread
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kimbernator:
I was just reading a post about using PD15IMG incorrectly screwing things up. After re-reading a couple times I now understand what the issue was.

apperantly having a different radio and using PD15IMG can mess things up because:

-engineering hboot allows radio changing manually

-stock S-ON does not.

-PD15IMG replaces hboot before radio

-once hboot is set to stock, non-stock radio cannot be changed as it is an outdated version than what I have.

I guess my main question is:

- Will reverting to the stock hboot using PD15IMG cause issues? (Are you even IN hboot technically when using PD15IMG?)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mark manning:
Nope wrong, the only way flashing the pd15img will screw up your phone is if you have a corrupt partition, even then all its says is pu failed and aborts the update. There is 5 different files that get flashed during the update. It does not matter if you have a different radio. That's the point of the file. When you get an update from T-Mobile that's basically what they send to your phone.

If your not gonna listen to the answer that already answered your question why even ask???

Hey been looking around through xda for a bit but couldnt find anything.

Im after a guide on how to start making my own ROM.

If anyone could post a link to a guide or let me know the important steps on how to start.

Had a U8800 for a bit and love it and want to make it perfect :)

Cheers
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] magictwins:
first you have to understand some programming language , specifically c or java, but most high level languages are similar

then I am told that you need to have a deep understanding of linux file system, which I don't... so I am not qualified to give you anymore advice...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stockwell:
For me I started out trying to port clockwork recovery to u8800. There's a guide by koush that gives the most basic steps on how to do this. Following that and doing a lot of reading I was able to get it pretty good and obviously Geno has since taken over to basically perfect it.

I think the recovery is a good place to start since it's similar to the normal android os but just really cut down. Try building it from source and work out how to get it on the phone and booted.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trevh:

[LG Optimus 3D] borgqueenx:
Copy and paste from the "dark side"....since i heard alot people saying te o3d got more depth...
[LG Optimus 3D] mmace:
I've downloaded quite a few photos taken on the HTC Evo 3D to my O3D and to view on my 3DTV, the 3D is just not as good, the depth in the photos is not as good either.

Download TwinPic, go to the public gallery and download some, they just aren't as good at all!
[LG Optimus 3D] ian928:
You are referring to the differences in the cameras, not the screens. Optimus photos viewed on the evo will have the same depth as when they are viewed on the optimus. All these phones are doing is showing two 2d pictures on the same screen at the same time while blocking the opposite eye from seeing the other pic. The same 3d source will have the same 3d effect on both phones. The same source has the same two pics when viewed on either screen and therefore cannot have a different 3d effect.

Now if we are talking about different sources then of course the 3d effect can be different.
[LG Optimus 3D] exceleth:
Oh then what does "3D Depth" stands for when viewing 3D photos on O3D ?
[LG Optimus 3D] mmace:
exactly, you can change the depth on photos, videos and games by adjusting the parallax focus point. the same depth is not always present just because it's 2x 2D photos.
[LG Optimus 3D] exceleth:
I guess on any subject, O3D is way better than Evo 3D. Every benchmark result confirm this. We can Even say O3D is the best phone out there in the market yet.
[LG Optimus 3D] Jabbypants:
Plenty of reviews out there say the same thing the 3D effect looks better on the O3D than it does on the Evo 3D, when playing the same source or things taken on the phones.
[LG Optimus 3D] borgqueenx:
You're goin offtopic.

@jabbypants yes but maybe they all say this based on the camera's.

Go watch desame movie on youtube on both devices...

Someone still hasnt confirmed my first post or said it is not correct...
[LG Optimus 3D] mmace:
1st, "the same"

2nd, HTC Evo 3D only out in the US at the moment, LG Optimus 3D not out in the US at the moment, very highly unlikely that one person has both phones for comparison
[LG Optimus 3D] Echts:
There is one tech site in the US (PhoneDog) that has both, they choose the Evo because of higher resolution on the screen and a few other things but they admitted that when it comes to 3D effect the LG stands supreme, the Evo isn't nearly as good, not for the effect or for the eyes.

A bit off-topic but IMHO they miss a few things in that "dog fight" because they don't talk about what is "under the hood" of the LG O3D, as stated above it's hardware is probably the most powerful out there.
[LG Optimus 3D] SinSilla:
Only true if one assumes that both handsets are using a parallax barrier of the same quality which works equally effective. This doesn't seem to be the case. (3d images on the O3D are supposed to be more crisp and the viewing angle is supposed to be wider as well)
[LG Optimus 3D] borgqueenx:
Thanks this explains it to me. I hope our "media markt" or phone shops get the evo3d soon so we can see them together.
