I thought the new market update got released last week.

I'm on a unrooted factory Sensation - still no new market here

Has anyone even gotten the new market update?
[HTC Sensation] Lord60:
negative on this end... US TMO
[HTC Sensation] DeeJay00001:
I have the unofficial release apk if you need, just PM me.

[HTC Sensation] iJohnny:
I got new Android Market like that to.

Working great. :D
[HTC Sensation] millerliteguy:
I was thinkong of doing it that way but wanted to make sure it would still be able to update to the official version when available
[HTC Sensation] iJohnny:
You can remove updates (market that you install with .apk) and then update to official when update is out for you.
[HTC Sensation] Sketchy McSketch:
I just got tired of waiting for it and downloaded the latest version for a manual install. From what I've heard, a good amount of U.S. users haven't gotten it yet...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] michaelmab88:
I've noticed that while typing on the phone's keyboard my Bluetooth stereo headphones cut out. Is anyone else having this issue? I think the Bluetooth radio might be located near the headphones jack which is where I hold the phone with the keyboard open. :/

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idahonld:
I feel like a total noob, so please be kind.

I connected my TB to the home PC today (windows XP), but I cannot access the SD card.

When connected to PC, SD Phone & Storage/Unmount SD card is grey'd out.

When disconnected from PC, SD PHone & Store/Unmount SD card is white (available).

My settings:

USB Connection type: Disk drive

Applications/Development: USB debugging is checked

I know for sure that I've been able to access the SD card when connected before. What in the heck am I doing wrong??
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
What's you're ROM?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idahonld:
Stock ROM. I'm trying to get rooted and need to transfer files to SD card.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idahonld:
I should also note...when connected to PC I can see the phone via Windows explorer. Just not the SD card. Weird.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ILMF:
You might try reseating the card?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idahonld:
I can read and write to the card no problem on the phone. It's the PC that can't see it. I have some pics and video of my kids on there right now so I want to avoid formatting unless absolutely necessary. I'll try reseating, rebooting phone and pc, and see if that kicks anything loose.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ILMF:
Guessing here, but if you are running a GB Rom with an older kernel, you might need to put the phone into internet passthrough mode, wait about 5 secs, then change it to disk drive. That problem was fixed in later kernels.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
Make sure you pick disk drive mode and then wait. It takes sometimes a minute plus for my pc to see the second drive (sd card), first one (verizon) comes up quick.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idahonld:
After much tinkering in the past 12 hours I'm convinced the issue is on the Windows XP side and not my phone. I cannot access my wife's SD card either (she also has a thunderbolt). But I CAN access the SD cards in both phones via Ubuntu. So although I've got it narrowed down to XP, I still haven't figured out how to get XP to see it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
did you just connect and wait for a couple of minutes?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greywolf66:
you might also want to check device manager make sure windows didn't have in issue loading. I've seen that happen, second the thoughts on waiting a few minutes to see if it shows. Had that happen a few times on windows machines.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idahonld:
Yeah, I waited about 20 minutes hoping something positive would happen. Nothing. I uninstalled the phones driver from 'My Computer/Manage'. Then rebooted the PC. Then plugged the phone back in. It downloaded a fresh driver. Still no SD card tho. Maybe its tome to reinstall XP and see if that fixes the problem.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dnakaman:
Have you updated your drivers on your PC?

I have a computer running XP and I can see my sd card just fine on my TB.

I did have an older drivers and needed to load an newer one for it to work when I getting ready to first root my phone as well.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ILMF:
Try running this tool:

I'm running x64 Windows 7, so I doubt the verison I have will help you. You can get a 32bit version from the link.

[General Topics] Martyn136:
In the technical specification of some chinese Android Phones like the Tops 8 Phone there is a fascinating detail:

Two MediaTek 6516 Chips with different Speed, 460 MHz and 280 MHz

Does someone know whats the sense of such a construction? Maybe there is one core clocked lower for more accu lifetime. But is there still real dual-core proecessing for apps possible? Or runs one core the Android OS and the other core the apps? Ore is one core needed to control the GSM and WLAN interface?
[General Topics] aloy99:
I think one chip handles signal cell tower stuff.
[General Topics] ghost77:
One could be CPU second could be GPU.
[General Topics] EliWay:
Fascinating indeed. These chinese phones are marketing their phones as dual-core, when, in reality they only have one core for application processing. All phones , even ones from 2002 have cores for handling the modem. Tegra 2 has something like 8 cores total, yet they only advertise their two CPU cores.
[General Topics] Product F(RED):
It is possible. The Evo 3D and HTC Sensation have this. They're called Asynchronous cores and they basically each manage their own clock speeds based on the load they have on them. It's much more battery efficient than, say a Tegra II, which runs both cores at the same speed. However for a phone like that, I'd say the second CPU is probably the radio CPU, which doesn't affect actual phone performance.
[HTC Sensation] frankinstine:
I rebooted into recovery,made a backup,did a data/factory reset and it formated the data and cache correctly but gave me this error also:

[HTC Sensation] mishufac:
yes, i'm getting this error too
[HTC Sensation] dlads:
Did you find a fix for this? I'm getting the same error.
[HTC Sensation] Tempestrs4:
This is happening to me now too. It was fine before. Maybe koush knows?
[HTC Sensation] dlads:
No idea pal, all i know is that i'm having problems, now my wifi says error, probably due to something not being removed and it's having a brain fart.

I've just got 4ext recovery to delete and then repartition all partitions, will let you know if it gets it sorted, i'm guessing a no but we'll see.
[Motorola Droid X2] Calcobrena:
Well, just about as soon as I download it from MyDroidWorld the link was dead. So... here's a torrent that I made that now has enough people that you should be able to download it as quickly as your connection lets you. If you have a torrent app, this will probably be the fastest way you can get the update.

SEE ATTACHED for the torrent which is placed in a ZIP file because XDA doesn't allow uploads with .torrent extensions. :)

If you can spare a little bandwidth, help seed the file for a little while. You can adjust the upload bandwidth to suit your connection. Even just 20k/up helps a lot. :)
[Motorola Droid X2] rexboe:
I got it from the TBH app here is a link to GB prerooted http://www.mediafire.com/?w6m0x20iwx12sne

Edit: P3droid said he updated the file to fix the error so I also updated it. This is the updated verison. I sbf'd back reflashed and did not get the error this time so seems to be working correctly now.
[Motorola Droid X2] spr0k3t:
Page not found, error 404. Update please? I think it would be best if someone would just post a torrent, then we'd have enough mirrors to spread around like butter.
[Motorola Droid X2] Calcobrena:
are you sure? because it just worked for me. Well, I'm also seeding a torrent for that option.
[Motorola Droid X2] spr0k3t:

HAHA! I think I'm only allowed a limited number of connections. If you like, you can upload the torrent I made in your tutorial as a backup solution. :)
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
This really sucks. Downloaded the patch from MDW and it says installation aborted at the very end.

I'm downloading your torrent mirror as we speak, and I hope it works. My question: Do I install your torrent zip the same as any other zip?
[Motorola Droid X2] Calcobrena:
the torrent is just in the zip file. just run it with your torrent software and download :) xda doesnt allow uploading of.torrent files :)
[Motorola Droid X2] rexboe:
It will say that at the end of the installation just reboot and it will be on GB. Mine did the same thing somewhere on here it says it will say that and it is ok.
[Motorola Droid X2] spr0k3t:
For anyone else having problems downloading, the torrent is moving pretty good, just need more people in to help seed heavy. I'll be seeding for a couple weeks at full throttle if I can.
[Motorola Droid X2] DAG425:
Thanks! I will... sorry about that... Should have asked first!!!
[Motorola Droid X2] DAG425:

Just hit another location... Once I'm done, I'll be seeding this from five different connections. Good transfer rates will hit soon.
[Motorola Droid X2] Calcobrena:
Awesome because it seems I'm still the only one that's seeding the entire thing still but that should change in a few minutes. :)
[Motorola Droid X2] DAG425:
Seeding now!!! Hope it helps!!!
[Motorola Droid X2] Calcobrena:
It's definitely helping. With the half a dozen seeds, people are getting the entire download in just a couple of minutes.

For me, torrents are preferred over everything else. Already seeded 5.86 ratio.

[Motorola Droid X2] EvilTim:
Edit: after reading other forums, if you get the error at the end of install it still applies gb update, if you run the update through again you wont get the error but apparently it isn't necessary
[Motorola Droid X2] 0vermind:
I'm seeding, so including me there are 10 seeds, and 17 peers. I got about 500+ kb/s when downloading. Took about 3 minutes.

Edit: This torrent pre-rooted update.zip must be jacked, the MD5 of p3droids rooted gb zip is:

Sorry about your issues; download from my link, but first SBF, then root with Gingerbreak, then use the System Recovery Bootstrap apk, press install, then boot into recovery and flash mine. http://www.joe96.com/update.zip

If I'm on Gingerbread non-root I can sbf back to stock 2.2?!
[Motorola Droid X2] rancifer:
Yep. Lots of people having problems with the torrented file.
[Motorola Droid X2] 0vermind:
That's because it's the OTA zip... not p3droids.
[Motorola Droid X2] Calcobrena:
I redownloaded P3Droid's ZIP as well as the ZIP that joe is mirroring to check them and all the MD5 checksums are: f589e47ed6001e184443f38d68d3cfdd

You must have done something wrong because this is the same file I used and there are nearly 2 dozen people seeding this who haven't reported the problem you are having.
[Motorola Droid X2] Watercycle:
i went off the torrent and was seeding until i realized it doesn't work, gave me some silly charger_only error.

tried directly from p3 and had sucsess, i'm not sure what that's about :p
[Motorola Droid X2] 0vermind:
Which zip? He uploaded two. The first one is the standard ota zip, and the second one is the rooted one.

Case and point.
[Motorola Droid X2] joerkc:
Yes, confirmed by P3droid that it doesnt break the SBF/RSD from working...and by myself by the simple fact that I did it this morning :)
[Motorola Droid X2] rancifer:
I got the same error. I only tried to update with it once before deciding to dl the p3droid file, and when I used his file it worked. The error with the first file printed two different md5 checksums after the error readout, so the file was corrupted.

I don't think anyone is insinuating any ill intention or lack of skill concerning the OP, just that for whatever reason, several people have had trouble with the file. I am sure its the torrent.

I admit, I did not force a recheck and I should have. And im sure anyone else who had problems with the torrent didn't either.

md5sum results

I prefer torrents so I jumped on this one when it came up. After seeing a lot of issue reported, I opened the zip and downloaded the one from mdw to compare, and they look the same. I went ahead and downloaded the joe96 file, both files from mdw (the ota and rooted), and the file in the torrent, then did md5sum on all files. My results below.

Should work for most custom ROMs, and may work for stock if you use this guide.

Place bootanimation.zip in "/system/media/" and "/data/local/", and poweron.ogg (from poweron.zip) in "/etc/". Back up files if you think you might want to restore your original boot animation and/or sound.

As I still don't c a reason to do so neither to instal a custom rom

to get rid of the bloatware perhaps? its the only reason to root really. (for me anyways...custom roms are good, but not worth the trouble when the stock roms are this good).

Follow directions to SBF your phone back to stock Froyo

HERE

After you have followed those directions, THIS IS IMPORTANT PEOPLE, go thru the setup, *228 option 1 and all.

Go ahead and do a factory data reset/wipe your phone from Settings>>Privacy>>Factory Data Reset

After wiping the phone re-root with Gingerbreak and instal Tenfar Lin's Recovery.

Tutorials for rooting and installing recovery as well as additional download links/mirrors can be found in the sticky or here:

Root

Recovery

Place the downloaded GB Pre-Rooted file un the root(top of filesystem/not in any folder) of your externad sd card and rename to "update.zip".

Reboot into recovery thru Tenfar's Bootstrap Recovery app and select "Apply SDCARD : update.zip"

NOTE : It will take a long time, about 15 minutes... EDIT: I dont remember how long it takes with the new prerooted version.... I did this at work yesterday...

Reboot your phone. IT WILL BOOTLOOP!!! EDIT: If it bootloops, pull battery, reboot holding power and volume down, use volume down to scroll to stock/built in recovery, press volume down and up at the same time twice until you get the menu, wipe/factory data reset....

The phone will seem to stall at the eye, but give it time... EDIT: I wasnt watching as I was doing this at work....

Eventually you will be at your home screen and all will be well and rooted in the wonderful world of GingerBread!!

ENJOY!!!

UPDATES

GO TO P3DROID'S WEBSITE AND DOWNLOAD THE FILES THERE! HE HAS CORRECTED THE "ASSERT FAILED/INSTALLATION ABORTED ERROR"!
