Hey I know this is a bit off topic since it concerns my battery. Is 3877mV good or bad? And my battery temp is usually around 40 degrees C.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimcr7:
3877mV when fully charged or not?

40 degrees is normal i think.

Try fully charged and see your battery voltage. It should be around 4200mV.
[Desire General] cadavreatpinopl:
Can you tell differences between file systems like yaffs / ext# / btrfs?

Which one is fastest? Which is most safe? Which gives biggest kick?

I'm on default FS right now and I'd like to change to smth like ext# (I got before on i5700 Spica) but is it better than yaffs?

Any comparison in Quadrant score? : )
[HTC Incredible S] shiningarmor:
ok.. to start,

1: wipe phone with super wipe

2: flash cwm with ext4

3: place rom in sdcard

4:boot into hboot, hit recovery, it shud be cwm ext4 by default?

5: if yes, then flash rom from cwm.?

6: and then done?

if i wnt to flash the all in one sense 3.0 features.. how do i do that?
[HTC Incredible S] jul644:
Right from the thread

to flash the all in one sense features

you flash your rom load into it use it for about ten min, then flash the sense 3.0 extras pack just like a rom
[HTC Incredible S] shiningarmor:

[HTC EVO 3D] shook187:
How do I back up my stock ROM, home screens and settings using TWAP? I see back up partition and google apps, but I'm not sure which one does what.
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
Select back up partitions. There will be a few that are selected by default. They are what is needed to make a complete backup that will restore and boot successfully. I suggest adding Wimax to that list, so that your wimax partition is backed up. That contains your RSA keys, and you don't want to lose those. You may also choose to compress the backups if you'd like. That'll take forever, but the end result will be a smaller backup. Once you selected what you want to backup, then select 'backup naowz!'
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
In addition to this, to backup your "homescreens" use the app "titanium backup" and select the system app htc sense, back it up, you can then restore this app+data later to re-create your screens. This is ONLY assuming you're moving between compatible ROMs (odex-odex, deodex-deodex, etc.) ymmv.
[HTC EVO 3D] shook187:
Thanks guys

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Va_Alexander:
Is there any possibilty to install android 2.3.4 on our devices without waiting for update from HTC:rolleyes:?

I'm not familiar with CyanogenMod so if it is the answer, then I'll try CM. But please recommend me what version should I install (nightly or some)?:confused:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Try looking for for an AOSP (Android Open Source Project) based ROM in the dev section. There are a few, I'm just not sure what they are called.

CyanogenMod is a highly modified fork (for want of a better word) of AOSP.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kantk20111:
Hi everyone, this is a very simple list/howto of all known Arc-ported features onto the X10 as of 4th August.

Right now the list is not big but the features are, which include

100% working Bravia engine

75% working xLoud (FCs occur when changing brightness/volume and power control widget stops working, but in active developement and should be fixed soon)

100% new 2011 Xperia launcher, it's smoother, faster, and a few nice new features

95% working DLNA widget (A few streaming problems)

Screw SE for leaving these features out, when it works almost perfectly on our devices.

Here's where to get the files and how to install them. Although all of the features are safe and shouldn't explode your X10, always remember to back things up in case something gets screwed.

I will update this as I am sure we will get more goodies :D. The devs are just too great! It sickens me that SE purposely left out these features, but it's to be expected since if it did, it could seriously hurt Arc/other xperia sales, since the X10 is still a very capable device.

Have fun!
[G2 and Desire Z General] jorenko:
There still seem to be a few people with problems so I thought I'd try to collect the steps and add a bit more info:

Notes

- So far this is only confirmed to work on full stock 2.2. For the leaked 2.3.3 you'll need to downgrade first; see this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1180733&highlight=temp+root+downgrade

- The only confirmed root so far requires s-off BEFORE you follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1206930

- I have had no reports of anyone doing this with anything other than 100% stock recovery, hboot, etc. Please let me know if you do try and what happens; I'll update this post.

- Following this procedure will not wipe your apps or your data.

Steps

1. Download http://android.clients.google.com/p...MOUS_2.15.531.3-1.22.531.8_release_197463.zip and rename to update.zip. Turn off 'Hide extensions for known file types' and make sure it's not update.zip.zip!

2. To verify your download didn't get corrupted, check its md5sum. It should match 3c7b0c2253f72f86b06d2c85b2c8c294 (you can get a dos tool to do this here: http://etree.org/md5com.html. Run cmd.exe and type md5sum.exe update.zip from a folder that contains both files) If your result doesn't match, download again.

3. Place update.zip on the root of your SD card, not in any folders.

4. Power down your phone.

5. Press and hold both VOLUME DOWN and POWER until you get a menu

6. You may not be able to navigate the menu yet. Wait for 10-15 seconds until it says it's checking some files, then automatically returns to the menu. Now you can use VOLUME UP/DOWN to choose menu options.

7. Choose Recovery from the menu by highlighting with VOLUME UP/DOWN and pressing POWER.

8. Wait until you get a picture of a phone with a red triangle and !

9. Press & hold VOLUME UP, wait one second, then also press POWER. You should get a menu with blue text.

10. You will see "E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command" at the bottom of the screen. This is OK!

11. Again with VOLUME UP/DOWN and POWER, select "Apply sdcard:update.zip"

12. From this point, just wait until it tells you to reboot and choose that menu option. If you get any errors here, consult the troubleshooting below.

13. There are several more automatic reboots and wait screens to go. Be patient!

Troubleshooting

- "E:failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (no such filler or directory)" - your file isn't named update.zip! Reboot your phone and use Astro or another file manager to make sure you've got the name right.

- "E:failed to seek in /sdcard/update.zip (Invalid argument)" - your download probably got corrupted! Check the md5sum again, redownload, and try again!

- "assertfailed: file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == tmobile/htc_vision/vision/vision:2.2/FRF91/277427:user/release-keys"" - you probably don't have the latest 2.2 that this update is designed to replace. You might be on 2.3.3 or possibly the original pre-wifi-calling 2.2. To fix this, downgrade from 2.3.3 or wait for the OTA to get the newer 2.2.

[G2 and Desire Z General] leech1980:
Will this work with clockworkmod recovery?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Cimer:
Well I would wait until someone makes a rooted version of this, I don't think you want to loose root over an update that is kind of outdated compared to Cyanogenmod.

[G2 and Desire Z General] leech1980:
I don't mind losing root. I'm running stock 2.2 with s-off and clockworkmod. I just want the update to work.

The instructions above don't work for me. When I attempt an update in clockworkmod I get an error "(Status 7) installation aborted", something like that.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Cimer:
That's because it's not meant for clockworkmod yet. You can follow his instructions, loose root and be updated, or just wait a little until someone makes a rooted version and just flash it via clockworkmod.
[G2 and Desire Z General] leech1980:
Following his instructions, I get to clockworkmod recovery after step 7. I then choose update from .zip and get an error message.

no - i don't have clockwork or any mods at all.. I think I screwed up the downgrade slightly, anyhow, what happened was shortly after posting this i got an OTA update that updated my system - but it didn't update it to 2.3.4 just to a newer 2.2 evidently.

[G2 and Desire Z General] CapinWinky:
It looks like you can't use a custom recovery to apply this update. It likely tries to verify the recovery image. You could open the update up and remove the file version verification, and various other things to prevent it from taking away your S-Off and SuperCID. You would then HAVE to apply it with a custom recovery with signature verification off.

A quick look in the firmware.zip portion of the update and you find this in an info file:

modelid: PC1010000

cidnum: T-MOB010

mainver: 2.15.531.3

hbootpreupdate:12

As well as hboot_7230_Vision_GEP_0.82.0008_110413.nb0

I don't know if that info file actually does anything, but I would still start with changing cidnum to 11111111.

The real meat of what is going on is in the Meta-inf folder, that is what handles copy files and performing updates. You can simply remove things you don't want updated. If modified correctly, you could then apply a superuser su.zip before rebooting and keep root with your update.

Unfortunately, I don't know enough to trust my own handywork. Maybe some people more familiar with the innards of Anroid could help out the Vision/G2 community?
[G2 and Desire Z General] CapinWinky:
The more I look at it, the more it seems like you could just delete the recovery.img (or replace it with clockworkrecovery) from the firmware.zip and delete the assert(apply_patch_check crap from the updater-script in META-INF\com\google\android and apply the modified update.zip with clockworkrecovery (signature verification off).

You could then apply an su.zip before rebooting and you should come back up with custom recovery at least, if not root also.

No one do this just yet. Surely someone from the N1 community can guide us as to how to chop up the update.zip

Is that due to my uninstallation of those T-mobile apps with Visionary+, root explorer before?

Is there any possibility i can get this update without going to local store, thanks.

I think it's unfortunate that you had to come through for your fellow G2 users where T-Mobile couldn't... Not sure what they have against people on the west coast - making us wait an extra week before we can go into the store for the update. :confused:

In the original post it was indicated that this 2.3.4 release hasn't been successfully rooted yet. I saw other posts on using Fre3vo to attain temp root (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1176808), but so far I haven't seen it run to completion so it appears it only works on the leaked 2.3.3 versions.

As I had to downgrade to 2.2 before move to 2.3.4 I checked GPS on Froyo and it was working perfectly.

As soon as I update today to 2.3.4 everything is working except GPS again.

Can't guarantee that it will be that way for you but that was my experience. :-)

I highly recommend anyone waiting on the OTA does this. It's extremely easy, works perfectly, and is the real thing.
[G2 and Desire Z General] wildcard26:
Just a side note and if anyone is still having issues with updating.

If you had to downgrade from the leaked 2.3.3 then you had to root. So when your phone goes to 2.2 it remains rooted. You can used the file in IV. (Optional) Flash the OTA Update of this article found here (http://theunlockr.com/2010/12/01/how-to-unroot-the-t-mobile-g2-htc-vision/) that will be the OTA that you re waiting for and will unroot your phone.

You can then go back to the first post and re attempt the update. I did that and it worked so hoped this helps future members.
