[General Questions and Answers] liveman2k:
I purchased this phone yesterday as a replacement for my motorola milestone (the very first droid) that has been giving me headaches recently. In general, Viewpad 4 is a pretty nice phone; the hardware spec is good and the price is relatively low.

However, I'm trying to root this darn phone but none of methods I tried work. The phone is running Android 2.2.2 (yea.. not 2.3/2.4) and after reading some posts on the forum, that google patched up some loop hole after version 2.2.1?

I've tried SuperOneClick, Z4 Root, and Universal Androot 1.6.2-beta 5, but so far none of them works. Is there any other possible way that I can root this phone? :confused: thanks in advance!
[General Questions and Answers] nexosilva:
i have used z4root in a 2.2.2 version and it worked.

did the permanent root, after a few secs, the device restarted and it was rooted.

it's a nice phone. very fast and nice touch screen.
[General Questions and Answers] liveman2k:
thanks for the reply nexosilva. i've also tried z4root but not getting any luck. the app FC after i click the root button, frustrating. =\
[General Questions and Answers] psoe htet linn:
z4root? which version?can i know it?

I also trying to root Viewpad 4, but it was not completely root? so help me please.

Thank you.
[General Questions and Answers] liveman2k:
i tried z4root version 1.3.0 but the app will FC half way during temp rooting. i will give it an update if i come across anything... hopefully :(

I haven't been keeping up on all of the new features in Mango as much as I should, but I have a question about WiFi.

Currently, pre-mango, when you are on WiFi and your screen times out, the Wifi is disabled a short time later to "save the battery". Is there any way in the Mango betas out there now to tell the DVP to keep the WiFi on, even if the screen times out?
[Venue Pro General] notebookgrail:
This has been the case always even with pre-mango. The Wifi turns itself on during scheduled interval depending on how often you have your email sync,etc. At least, this is what i have been told. To test it out, try disabling Cellular connection and have wifi only mode and send email/DA PM,etc from PC/another device (anything that will wake from sleep for a notification) while the screen has timed out.
[Venue Pro General] Plazma1:
I just got my DVP for 200 off of craigslist. Brand new in the box.

I love it and am not dissapointed at all. Coming from an HTC Snap I had to have the keyboard and this keyboard does not dissapoint.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jonbeazles:
Hello,

I was having a lot of trouble getting s-off for my Incredible 2, I guess because of my Windows 7 64bit operating system. I eventually got it done on a desktop with vista. however, that computer had no internet access so it didnt automatically install CWM. I havent had access to that computer for a while, so iwasnt able to flash CWM on my phone.

Today I tried doing the old temp root method, and once that was done, I installed superuser and busybox from the android market. now, without a new rom, CWM, new kernel, etc, my phone seems to be maintaining root access even after reboots.

Is there anything wrong with this picture? lol... When I was researching, it seemed that most places said you can't have root without installing a rom that has it. But it seems to be sticking without installing a rom. Is there any downsides to doing it this way?

Thank you anyone for your help, and I apologize if this is in the forums somewhere, but I did do a legitimate search and came up blank.

What method did you use and did you have froyo or ginger at the time?

Why posting in the wrong forum :confused:.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jonbeazles:
i used the alpharev x method, starting with froyo, I've never had ginger on my phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jonbeazles:
sorry about that =/ i thought since it was root/rom related it might go in the other forum.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jonbeazles:
oh, and for the temp root portion after s-off, i used this method--

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jeremytn86:
I think there may b a problem, similar to people who used z4 root on other phones just to gain access to root apps without caring about custom roms and such. I'm afraid u will try to get pushed new ota updates, since ur still running completely stock, now I don't think that will take away your s off because of the high h boot version you now have, but it will take away your root, and I don't know how big of a deal that would b to you, but I would install clockwork recovery to prevent this. My brother had Droid x with z4 root, he left his phone alone for a while, and he came back to have gingerbread, it updated by itself cause he was completely stock with no recovery, just had Su permissions through z4, so now he's screwed and can't get root, or couldn't last time I checked. I have not even read how to install clockwork manually, I did it with the alpharevx tool, so I don't know of this would be a prob or not if u got updated to the ota gingerbread, hope this helps and makes sense, it does to me but that's a different story lol.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jonbeazles:
lol!! it makes sense to me too.

I didn't know that phones could auto update with OTA's without user consent, pressing an "okay" button type of thing. Dammit. is there any point to having S-OFF without rooting?

installing CWM manually isn't exactly a problem, I just gotta wait til i get access to a non windows 7 64 bit computer again. hopefully that opportunity comes before an OTA is pushed to my phone.

Thank you for your input!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jeremytn86:
I couldn't see an advantage to just being s off, unless it allows u to use different sim cards, but I don't know, I'm no expert. The only thing I can think of is maybe it will leave the possibility of rooting open to u at a later time, but I don't know. I like my set up, its pretty much stock with some of the Verizon crap removed but I have root and can use rooted apps.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jonbeazles:
thanks again for the input. i'll probably end up with that debloated type of rom too.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] deaffob:
It depends on what you want. I'd say no problem if all you want is the root access.
[Thunderbolt General] denonlake:
What is the deal with some roms offering HTC modded kernal or an alternate? What benefit does HTC modded have if any? Ive also seen it called xda compliant? Just trying to understand the difference. Please be gentle with the sarcasm and flames...
[Thunderbolt General] yareally:
better memory efficiency, added features, better battery life/performance.
[Thunderbolt General] denonlake:
Thanks
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
its the kernel from what many believe to be the official htc tbolt GB release that is in testing.

Problem is that the kernel is causing alot of reboots in ROMs that are using it.
[Thunderbolt General] loonatik78:
By calling it XDA compliant, they probably mean GPL compliant, meaning the developer is compliant with the terms and conditions of the GPL. That means making the source freely available upon request. Also, XDA requires credit be given to contributors and the source of the code the developer started with.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricwhic414:
Alright today I decided to change roms. I was on CM7 RC1.3 and 4G was fine I switched back to one of my backups. All of a sudden I had no 3G and no 4G. Just 1x. I tried different backups and even fresh installs with no luck. Also pulled battery and sim card for 30 seconds to see if that would do anything.

Absolutely no clue how but 4G is back. Go ahead and delete this mod.
[General Topics] salina:
Last time we saw on how you can root your Samsung Galaxy Ace GT 5830 which is on the Stock firmware 2.2.1 and also recently we came up with an article covering on how you can easily upgrade the firmware of your Samsung Galaxy Ace GT 5830 to the latest XXKP9 2.3.3. We really apologize for bringing in the article to root this firmware as for all those who have followed the procedure to update the latest XXKP9 2.3.3 the root access was revoked as the firmware was new. So, not to worry as we will now see in the due course of this article on how you can easily root your Samsung Galaxy Ace, which is powered by latest XXKP9 2.3.3 Gingerbread version of firmware.

Please note that many users doesn’t know the benefit of rooting the device, for all those you can refer on what are the benefits of rooting Android device here and then can proceed to the rooting of the device. Please also note that rooting the device voids the warranty, though the warranty can be claimed back by un rooting the device. We will see on how to root the device but just in case if you wish to know how you can un root the device so that you can re claim the warranty which is voided because of rooting then all you need to do is to update your Galaxy Ace GT 5830 again with the XXKP9 2.3.3 from the above link and then the root access will be revoked and then the fresh firmware will be installed without the rooting access.

So, now let’s proceed and see on actually how you can root the device, it’s very important to follow the instructions which are mentioned below including the ones which are mentioned as the pre rooting instructions followed by the express procedure on how you can root Galaxy Ace GT 5830.

[HTC EVO 3D] BigNate:
I just bought this phone and I don't know if its because its brand new or what but it doesn't charge completely.

It will charge up to 100% but then the percentage will decrease and the green light that let's you know its fully charged stays on yet the percentage lowers drastically and this is while its still on the charger plugged in and everything.

Does anyone else have this problem or experienced this?
[HTC EVO 3D] :
That's the circuit kicking in to prevent overcharging of the battery. It's normal.

[HTC EVO 3D] BigNate:
Will it get better over time because Ive had plenty of android phones and this is the only one that loses its charge while still on the charger.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Yes it is like this on all EVO 3D as well as the EVO 4G. I'm not sure if it like that with only HTC phones or just the EVO brands.

Take it off once it turns green, it's full. If you leave it plugged in longer it will stop using the charger and use battery till it gets down to like 90% then the charger kicks back on.
[HTC EVO 3D] BigNate:
Okay it was just a shock to me because I owned the vibrant, incredible, and g2 and the 3vo is the only one thats done this. But if its normal I guess I have nothing to worry about. Althought I still may get a replacement, I just charged it completely and its down to 53% after only 2 hours and 20 minutes and the only thing I've done so far is post this thread on xda haha.
[Acer Iconia A500] adammhaile:
So... I was trying to revert from that leaked chinese 3.1 update back to stock so I could get the official 3.1 through the OTA. (It never would let me update anymore)... and I followed some instructions with some boot.img and system.img files and now when I try to boot, it gives me a LNX Checksum Failed error :mad:

I found this post on how to recover from this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1129873

But since I just have a stock recovery it just said to flash an official update.zip.

I've got several, from the original stock 3.01 to the latest 3.1 full update.zip, but whenever I try to flash it says booting recovery kernel, shows a progress bar VERY briefly and then shows that damn exclamation point in a triangle :(

No matter what I do, I cannot get it to flash an update.zip...

It's on an external 16GB SD card... so I dont get what gives.

Any thoughts guys?

Just plug your phone into your computer with one of the back usb ports and see if it will start up (by itself) to the point where it says "Fail to boot 0x1000".

If it does just press vol down to get to fastboot and the press vol up. Then open a cmd and go to the fastboot folder and run the commands.

I hope this is the issue.
