[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dredhead4:
I got my transformer rooted but since the batch script didn't work for flashing cwm I tried the rootkit by mashi. I thought I flashed cwm but I really didn't even though I saw update success on the screen. So I still have stock recovery and I can't get past the eee pad screen. Should I go back to APX mode and use the batch script? I don't want to do anything to it right now just in case I mess things up.

Edit: I tried the Nvflash unbricking script thing and now my TF doesn't turn ON!!!!!! WHAT DO I DO? Oh and btw, I can still get into APX mode but nothing else so it seems.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Did you put the correct files inside the NVFlash folder?

If not there's nothing for it to load to your TF

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dredhead4:
Ok so I am downloading Prime v1.6 since installing that rom was my intentions anyways but do you think my TF is bricked? I don't really know how bricking goes for an android device since my only other android device was the OG droid.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
I don't think Prime 1.6 is NVFlash compatible.

Download this

http://www.sdx-downloads.com/devs/roach2010/flash_roms/prime_v1.4.tar.bz2

extract the 3 img files (system.img, boot.img and recovery.img)and put it in the root folder of the NVFlash folder.

Put TF into APX mode and follow directions

in that video I posted above.

If done correctly you will have Prime 1.4 rooted and CWM recovery.

Now put the Prime 1.6 onto the REMOVEABLE micro SD card

Boot into CWM recovery and chose

"Flash zip from SD card" Flash Prime 1.6
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dredhead4:
You're right 1.6 isn't compatible. I think I understand how this Nvflash stuff works now. And thank you for the advice. My TF is saved. Just so Im sure, Nvflash is pretty much just like Rom Manager for Moto devices?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] :
sooo, when i woke up this morning i saw this "noti" at the notification bar.

its the t-mobile software update for sidekick 4g, i made some research online

and notice that the update just ****s up the phone.....

i dont want the update, my sidekick is running perfectly fine for me.

its running on "smooth maximus ROM GingerClone" (all thanks to ayoteddy)

my problem is, "how to remove the noti of the software update on notification bar?"

i tried to remove it but i cant.

when u click on the notification it'l bring you to a screen with 2 choices. "NEXT and POSTPONE". on top saying "Congratulations T-mobile has sent you a new software update for your device. To proceed with installation, select next.

Any idea?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
use root explorer and go to system/app scroll down and find wssyncmldm.apk and rename it wssyncmldm.apk.bak or delete the file!

i just tried deleting/renaming it but it says " wssyncmldm.apk cannot be deleted/renamed because the file system is read-only.

[Xperia Play Accessories] jdsemler:
I just ordered a 3-pack of 1500mAh batteries with a battery charger for like $12 shipped from eBay. Since they are coming from Hong Kong, I have a bit of a wait, but has anybody tried the eBay batteries on their Xperia Play?

I used similar batteries on my Samsung Captivate with no problems other than they seemed to be only slightly less capacity than my original (based on non-scientific gut checks at the end of the day of how much charge I thought I should have.)

In searching before posting this, I saw some nightmares in the HTC forums where they peeled back the label from their batteries and found them rated by another label 500mAh less than what the top label said.

I'll report back either way when they arrive.
[Xperia Play Accessories] jdsemler:
Got them in today. I took some pics to show what they look like right out of the pack. Notice that they all have the same S/N. Hmmmm

The charger has a USB port at the bottom and glows red when charging. If it is like the other eBay battery chargers I've seen, it will likely turn a different color when full.

Will report back once I've had a chance to use them.
[Xperia Play Accessories] netorino:
Good luck with the batteries. I couldn't find the offer with 3 batteries so maybe they took it out in the last month (ebay.com).

If they turn out to be ok it could be a good investment for an emergency. Looking forward to your results.
[Xperia Play Accessories] jdsemler:
I picked up the batteries from this seller.

As it turns out, two of the batteries seem to be bad. I sent a note to the seller to see about making it right. I'll update the thread with whatever the outcome turns out to be.

Regardless, the one that is working is doing a great job. I've been using it in place of my original battery, and so far, I can't seem to tell any difference.

Update: I accepted an offer for my Xperia Play, so I won't be following up here. I sold it with the good extra battery and am probably going to get a Samsung next.
[Xperia Play Accessories] speedyink:
I bought a set with 2 batteries and they seem to work fine, just slightly less capacity as the original. I know just charge the batts separately and swap them when I need a new one.
[Xperia Play Accessories] jdsemler:
I got this response from the seller:

Dear Customer,

Thank you for shopping with us.

We apologize for the inconvenience. We are now processing replacement for you.

Customer satisfaction is important to us, as a token of courtesy, there is no need for you to return the original item to us.

Again, we apologize for the inconvenience. If there is anything else we can do to assist you, please feel free to let us know. Thank you.

That was really nice of them. I checked the seller but they won't ship outside of the US, even tho it's coming from Hong Kong D:
[Xperia Play Accessories] captain67:
There's a chinese company that makes 1800mAh batteries for the X10. They work in the play, and are good quality. All the reviews said they actually offered better battery life, unlike a lot of cheap alternatives. I can't remember the brand name, but they're black with gold writing.

Normally I wouldn't trust third party batteries from eBay, although I did buy an extended battery for my laptop off of Amazon over a year ago (third party) and it stills holds a charge fantastically.
[HTC Sensation] cpdeepak:
My Sensation recently rebooted on it's own and when it came back up there was a notification circle on top with an exclamation mark. When I clicked on it, the message said: "There was an abnormal reset, do you want to tell HTC" or something like that. Did you guys ever get that? This happened to me twice.
[HTC Sensation] DaDoctor:
That is intended behavior that you can turn off if u desire.

[HTC Sensation] cpdeepak:
That was some of the fastest replies I have ever seen :). Thanks y'all.
[HTC Sensation] steve austin:
It is a known issue by t-mobil and htc. So much so that the abnormal reset is "supposed" to be on of the primary bug fixes in the new update according to T-mo rep and HTC when I called.
[HTC Sensation] Verbal Assassin:
**** that, return it and put some pressure on TmoUSA. Thats what I did and if those mutha ****ers dont hurry the **** up with the OTA update I will keep returning this *****. Until they do patch it.

[Acer Iconia A500] thehunted1:
Ok I am totally new to the android buzz. My wife and I both have orignal G1s never really played with them always to busy....Now we both have Acer A500's. I am not gonna play with hers since she loves hers the way it is. I of course feel it should do MORE. So with that being said here is my specs

HC 3.1

kernel version 2.6.36.3

build # 4.010.11_com_gen2

has this level of update been rooted and was there any issues.

(I not only use this to play and well gonna learn but also for work)

Again I am totally new to this.

Oh and Ido have a lot of leather on my back also.....hehehehe....;-}
[Acer Iconia A500] mevensen:
Yes, you can root 3.1 (just did it this weekend). No issues that I've run across with rooting (knock on wood). For me, I have just installed root programs (TiB, etc.) and OC'd (req'd new kernel, got up to 1.5 GHz w/o problems (knock on wood again)).

No custom ROMs yet, as I've been quite happy with Acer's ROM so far, with the aforementioned tweaking.
[Acer Iconia A500] pfc.joker:
I think it really depends on what you want to do - I rooted when I first got it to play, but ended up going back to unrooted stock after the first few weeks - if you don't have a need to root, then I'd just say don't bother.

Now that said, I just re-rooted last week simply to get Netflix working (which it does great now) - so that was my "need" - take that as you will.

But rooting (and unrooting) is pretty darn easy, so it's really hard to mess up your system, just remember - always backup - backup everytime you mess with something - because going back is easy with backups, if you forget, you are forced to find creative ways to "wipe and reset" back to stock.
[Acer Iconia A500] thehunted1:
well gonna wait a few days before i root due to need to pick up a mcro sdcards to back up system since i only have one and it is corrupt (how or why but nothing can read or write to it) and here lately been to dang busy with work....and dont have anything to back up to
[Acer Iconia A500] thehunted1:
well thats sounds chicken**** doesn't it.....i gues im just being a scared sissy....gonna root i do need access to root to access some vpns at work and need to tether also and do a few things that need access to root...just scared that i mess up and then cant return.....did that with first pc i ever owned and i got lucky with the place where i bought it they reinstalled all and i did the same thing and fixed it myself the second time.....lmao....worst case is i can confiscate the wifes a500 and get all from it to resotre mine......
[Acer Iconia A500] cfrock:
root will also give you access to deleting any crapware that comes pre-installed. While the Iconia has limited crap, there is some present.
[Acer Iconia A500] reiferreira:
I'm newbie to this stuff (Android) and just got an Iconia A500 (unfortunately without 3G embedded and no ad-hoc wifi).

I understood I need to have access to root account in order to release the ad-hoc wifi and then use a mobile phone that can theter wifi to other machines.

I tried the original way of "rooting" the A500 without success (sorry, i cannot include links here).

Is there any new way since I updated A500 to HC3.1?

Thanks in advance.

[Acer Iconia A500] cfrock:
Gingerbreak will not work on 3.1 you need to use iconiaroot found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1138228

It's quite easy- Good luck
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
And if you do THAT, future OTA updates will no longer work unless they're a full ROM. Acer has a nasty habit of issuing differential updates.
[Acer Iconia A500] cfrock:
True enough, but if you're rooting and trying out new roms, kernels, or deleting crap... then staying current with OTA probably isn't a high priority. Rather, you're looking to tweak/mod your tab and are more likely to wait for a new cooked rom based on said OTA.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Sure, but better than people be fully aware of the consequences of their actions... You'd be surprised at the sheer number of folks who just don't think. Look back at this forum before we got custom ROMs and OTAs started coming out as a prime example.
[Acer Iconia A500] cfrock:
Agreed- you're right.
[Acer Iconia A500] thehunted1:
well gonna root today pray for the best.....figure worst case is ima gonna be crying like a lil b**** if I mess it up. Sounds like if I mess it up there is some very highly knowledge here that can help me back to square "A". My main question-------I should be using iconiaroot-1.3.apk or should I be using signedgbiconiatab1.20.apk--------allready got acerecovery downloaded from the market and also titanium back up and which is the proper busybox or do I not need busy box? One last thing I would like to thank all those for the great direction you all have pointed me to!.............;-}
[Acer Iconia A500] cfrock:
You need iconiaroot 1.3

As for the other things.. you'll need to be specific as to what you are looking to do. Acer Recovery is an easy way to install ClockworkMod recovery which can then be used to

BACKUP

and install new roms. Titanium Backup can be used to delete apps and back them and their data up as well. You'll need to be specific.
[Acer Iconia A500] thehunted1:
well i dont think i want to install a new rom, but i do a good image back up before i do anything, i do want to get the otas and again as i mentioned before my wife has the same tablet and we are not going to do any thing to it but leave it in its stock level. i will leave the original crap on it which the only thing i dont like is the zinio reader but it doesnt bother me. Will work on trying to get my crack berry or my g1 to tecther with it due to I do and will be using it for work. At present i rdp into my laptop at home just need to be able to get online anywhere and any time....

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Crossrocker:
I really do like the way sense looks now. The only thing I despise is the pull down bar. Is there anyway to replace the recent apps with power widget? Like in decks and cm7. I think this could be very popular since most people would rather keep the hold down home

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] scottspa74:
Androidsupra, thanks for the jumpoff point. Curious though, on sense 3.0, isn't everything done with m10 and snaking, where with sense 1.0 (and 2.1?) It was simpler?

Either way, hope a dev FAR more knowledgeable than i will take a look. I Dont care for the redundancy of HTCs ridiculous feature ;)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] GeneralSky2004:
I agree. I can't stand the recent application section. My friend had a Rom running Sense 3.0 on his Thunderbolt that has the recent apps taken away. Looks fantastic.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] androidsupra:
From what I know, the m10 files are simply for the sizing of the items in the Rom to make them work on our device because of the resolution of the qhd phones 3.0 came on.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] scottspa74:
Actually, i thought m10 was a format/filetype HTC used in sense 3.0. It's just that the m10s have to be resized to make the newer roms fit our display. Not that m10 is a porting mechanism to make the resizing work.

Obviously, anyone correct me if I'm wrong.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saintirish:
Ok, so after having several ROMs and modems since I bought my Epic back in November . . . I continue to have a terrible time getting it to get a GPS lock. Right now I am on Midnight ROM 5.5 and EF02 modem. Is there anything I can do to get the GPS to lock in better? Does everyone still have GPS issues like I am (I even returned the first Epic I got because of this issue, but the second hasn't been that much better).

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shinydude100:
I don't know how much this may be of use to you, or if its in your interest, but I'd like to tell you that I use to have the WORST gps locks when I was on an outdated version of the 'Epic Experience' Rom on eclair, it would take ridiculously large amounts of time to lock on, and most of the time, it didn't! I finally got tired of the outdated Rom and Odin'd to Stock EC05, Rooted, and bloatware removed. I get a lock in less than 10 secs now, if not immediately. I realize you're on EF02, but I just thought I'd let you know this... cheers.
