[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Mistix:
I found a site that clams to sell already unlocked 4G slides

I also want to buy this phone an was looking for an unlocked version to use on WIND Canada.

I looked at Popular Electronics but it looked like it may not be unlocked even though it says it is....

Anyone used this site? They say its unlocked but 600 is a lot of money compared to the 509 on Amazon from HTC if its not going to be unlocked...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Mistix:
I ended up finding another site that had a cheaper unlocked slide. If anyone is looking for this phone new and unlocked I would recommend this site. Just a warning though it took the 1 week to processes my.

My phone works good with WIND voice + 3G/3.5G.

If you're rooted, and have busybox installed, you can follow the following instructions to obtain your unlock code from the phone itself; this worked for myself and others:

Last time its not like this, but when i try to click now my gallery,

the picture albums are too slow to come up!
[Xperia Play General] GetPatriotized:
Same here. I think it's because I enabled the Facebook Sync feature or I have too many media xD
[Xperia Play General] Geeve:
Ya, kinda' laggy.
[Xperia Play General] Red_Kop:
The gallery is crap.

Use this:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.alensw.PicFolder&feature=search_result

It's amazing.
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
Gallery is fine.

The reason it takes ages to load FOR YOU is because you are using task killers that unload it from memory.

Each time you load it up, it has to fully load again, rather than instantaneously popping up.
[Xperia Play General] Rogue Leader:
I have to agree here. I read the "task killers are bad" article and initially dismissed it as "no way" but since getting my Play I have not cleared all my tasks and it definitely runs perfectly fine and seemingly faster than my other Android devices that I religiously killed tasks on.

That said I still run ATK for when I actually have to kill a task, ex:a program is stuck and won't even FC, or my email acts up occasionally and won't retrieve. I find killing the email app and then opening it again cures it.
[Xperia Play General] GetPatriotized:
I use this aswell. Only complaint is that it says QuickPic at the top. Annoys me xD and the camera icon needs to be bigger.
[Xperia Play General] dassub:
I've found if I don't force close Gallery, its process will become a huge battery drain and my Play won't last a full day. That said, I do prefer it over Quick Pic, as it does run faster (for me).
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
Nope. Open processes do not drain the battery.

When you are not using them, the Android o/s freezes the process which eliminates processing power and battery power.

The only time an open process will drain your battery is if you are using a custom rom that doesnt support process freezing.
[Xperia Play General] dassub:
Problem is, when you go to battery usage when this problem occurs, Gallery does appear as taking up anywhere from 25-35% of the battery life.

Only a phone restart or force close of the app fixes the issue.

It doesn't happen too often anymore.
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
I have had my phone on this charge for 11h 28m and 46 seconds. My battery level is at 51%.

I have used the gallery today to show my work friends a couple of photos and a video. (about 30 seconds worth).

Gallery battery usage reports at 0.0%.

Something is wrong with your set up. The gallery works fine on my phone and doesnt drain the battery at all.

I suggest you are either using a custom rom that doesn process freeze the gallery, or you have an app killer that is killing the gallery.

I cant think of anything else it could be.

Hope you fix it anyway. GL :)
[Xperia Play General] jarcuri:
My phone takes a bit to load pictures too. I find that the droid in general needs a better way of shutting down unused programs. Too often do i need to restart my phone to get it working at top notch again.
[Xperia Play General] Jahy420:
i used quick pic and its fine now :D
[Xperia Play General] Dyelon:
Same here....quickpic loads up aLOT faster than gallery
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
My battery sucks lately. It may be since the last xloud update. :(

I can't get through a day just on standby. If I make a call or two it is dead before I get off work.

I use the task killer all the time and almost never use the gallery and don't use facebook. I do you Go launcher but it wasn't bad before the update.
[Xperia Play General] Cat_On_Droid:
Don't use the task killer. Install some scripts and custom Init. d scripts. Best way to conserve battery is to install juice defender ultimate

Saves battery 2x.

Lowring battery voltage also helps
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
Last update had a bug which drains the battery.

There is a fix thread on the forums somewhere that explains why it is bugged.

You need to go to settings, wireless and networks, mobile networks, network operators, then select manual instead of automatic.

The bug is basically that when you leave it on automatic, it will constantaly scan for radio signals whether you have a signal or not.

Took me a while to find out what it was, then someone else found a proper fix for it.
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
Can you tell me which forun and the thread title with those bugs?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scepter:
Help!

I have been a owner of the Desire for a year, rooted it, (no s-off) but no problems at all till now. I'm on T-Mobile.

About 3 weeks ago I noticed that I had no signal. At first this wasn't a surprise because of where I live can be described as 'countryside' so I don't really get much signal. However, after travelling to a different place I found that I still had no signal. Later on that day, I was relieved to find I had signal again, albeit for 10 minutes as it went rather soon. After this I found I had no sound or USB connection. I left it off for a considerable amount of time, about 12 days yet I turned it on today: still no signal! :( I suspect it is a hardware problem but still have tried a couple of ROMS but found no difference.

So I have a few questions. Has anyone had this or found a fix? Even as I've rooted (yes I know I've lost warranty) can I send it in? (I also have phone insurance).

Thanks in advance!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jukethehitman:
Flash back the orignal desire ruu and you can send it back to where you got it from for a replacement or fix. So long as you are still under warranty or have a very understanding insurance.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scepter:
Thanks for your reply!

I don't think I'd be able to flash the RUU since I can't connect via USB :/

what do you mean warranty? You lose it when you root. And also, what will the phone insurance do?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Try the usb brick fix, which can be found here on xda.

Swyped from Oxygen with Transparent XDA App
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scepter:
I don't actually think it would help? And is it dangerous? It charges on USB and on mains:/

I've also noticed that when I try to play a song white noise softly comes out of the speaker:/

Many thanks for help :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scepter:
Anyone? :) thanks for the help, I suck at software stuff
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
yeah you only loose warranty when you root if they know about it.. when you restore your phone with RUU there is no way to tell and it looks like a stock phone - and your warranty is "restored".

and I'd try the same (USB Brick fix guide), then run RUU
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
I really hate it when people ask for help, get an answer and then they say "I do not think it would help!" without any good reason.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scepter:
Okay I see your point but I thought the USB brick fix was for a completely other thing? But thanks for the advice, I shall try that. Is it difficult, and dangerous? For my last question if worse turns to worse should I get the stock rom still with root and try to wing it?

Cheers for all your help!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
If you ask the me, the the guide for fixing usb brick is not too difficult. It's not dangerous at all, make sure you follow the instructions carefully. When finished, flash ruu and use your warranty for your speaker problem.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scepter:
Fix!

Yes!!

I was going to wait till the weekend to try the USB brick fix, so I could have time to take it slowly. :)

So I got up today and got my phone from where I stored it... And It had service!

Im charging it atm so after I will check sound & USB connection :)

Thank you all so much :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
if you still ever have problems with signal, type this into the dialer *#*#4636#*#*

go to phone information, and play around with the preferred network type, as there might not be certain networks types available in your area (i.e. no 3g, just 2g etc.)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmtdluv:
i had the same issues, i could not connect to the network, or if it did.. it was low signal and not as it normally was.

so here is what u do... go to your settings menu. click on wireless and networks. and next.. turn on Airplane mode... (This will disable all your wireless connections.) now while the phone is on, and airplane mode enabled. take the Battery out.. Wait 30 second or so.. put the battery back in..... and turn on your phone as usual... and it will still be in airplane mode... again go to the settings menu.. wireless and networks, and now turn off the airplane mode. and now your phone should work as it did.. This reconnects it to the towers, or carrier... I had this work for me.. simple...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElCamino:
Quick questions. 1. Just got my Nexsus S Saturday; coming from iPhone 4, and I have managed to root and installed CM 7 build 150 nightly and want to know. Do I have to do a complete wipe every time a new nightly comes out? Or can I just update? I have done the backup of my ROM the very first time and have actually backed up my ROM twice just be safe.

Other question maybe someone knows is, anyone using the Nexsus S on AT&T? Want to know if adjusting the build.prop files to speed up the download and upload speeds works? Reason is my I phone's download up load are much faster than the Nexsus S. Would like to at least match the speeds to my iPhone. Thanks.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rentaric:
Between nightlys you don't have to wipe. If they are changing the kernel (or you're experience other problems) wiping cache and dalvik cache might be necessary (in case of "other problems" fixing permissions in cwm recovery might also help).

I just installed the KD1 radio on my Nexus S and now my upload speed is uncapped. :) not as good as my iPhone 4, but now I am getting 1.9 - 2.8 download and upload .83-.99.

This is without any mod to the build.prop file. Don't if i should try it.

I might have take back my Nexus S back to Best Buy since I am getting the bug where the find button goes crazy without touching it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdxrealtor:
What do you get on your iPhone 4?

You can always add the build.prop very easily. Once you change that file and save it a back up is created automatically.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElCamino:
On my iPhone 4 I normally get from 2.0 - 3.0 and sometimes as much as 3.3 download. Upload is always 1.2 and 1.5 unless I'm at home which is around .80.

Which radio are you using? Also what settings you end up using for the build.prop file? Did you just add them at the end if the file and rebooted twice? Will test out once I see what settings you used and radio.

I'm having a really bad issue with the search key going off in its own. Now it does more since i changed over the KD1 radio.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdxrealtor:
Did that search button go crazy in unrooted form? I posted the build.prop setting for you in the radio thread. I'm using radio kb4.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElCamino:
It did a few times when I had it stock.

OK thanks will check the radio thread must of missed it. I thought you had KB3? Also I went ahead installed the KB3 Radio and wow. Overall getting 2.8 down but the upload is low in the .30. :( this is of course without adding anything to the build.prop file.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillax1:
Hi There

I was using GingerBlur on my Atrix until I decided to go ahead and try out CherryBlur.

I downloaded the MEGA pack as suggested by the developer, booted into CWM recovery, "Installed zip from SD card".

After about 2-3 minutes, it said: Installation Successful.

From the menu options, I chose, Reboot.

From then on, I cant boot my phone. It just says, "Failed To Boot 4" and goes into RSD mode.

I cant get it to fastboot or anything.

Question:

Which SBF do I flash now? I heard flashing too old an SBF can hard brick my phone because apparently later versions of Android set a fuse somewhere on the phone?

Could please someone help me by telling WHICH sbf will save me here?

Go to gitbrew.org/atrix and download the 1.8.3, it should be near the top of the list as it is a popular download.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirtburgler:
As long as you are not on Gingerbread OTA you can flash back to 1.83. Really shouldnt be trying to flash roms if your bootloader is still locked. most of the roms out now need unlocked bootloader and the unlocked CWM.

Gingerblur was a pseudo-Rom, didnt mess with anything important, Alien, cherry, and aura are for unlocked bootloaders using the CWM version for unlocked bootloaders.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillax1:
Thanks a lot for your reply :)

Can I flash to the stock ROM (4.5.91) provided here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1163342

Or should it be some other version, say 4.1.83, as you suggested?

2 things:

*be sure you unlock the bootloader before doing this update*

and

*when you click on the download link on xda it takes you to the bottom of a briefmobile page, scroll up to the download link that says "beta 4.5" under it, and download that one... otherwise you'll get a failed to boot (i did this by mistake).*
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillax1:
Great so almost all believe that 1.8.3 should be safe as far as I did not do an OTA for 2.3.4 (which I did not, it was only until 4.1.83)

I will try flashing the 1.8.3 on the weekend, about 24 hours from now :D

I have my fingers crossed! ;)

Advice on rooting flashing Thunderbolt?

Hi all,

I am so frustrated With my Moto atrix 4g and the fact that it has a locked boot loader with the new 2.3.4 stock rom....I have a real simple question;

If I obtain a Thunderbolt, does Verizon force HTC to keep anything locked or make the Thunderbolt difficult to root, unlock boot loader and ultimately flash non-stock roms from XDA ?

If it is like past HTC phones then it should be a rom flasher's dream, correct? It is able to be unlocked and i can flash roms from this wonderful forum?

Please advise....much appreciated.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
Bro, really, take just 2 minutes to look around! There's a root guide right at the top of the dev forum!

To the OP: learning ADB and some basic Linux commands will become more useful than you know. Like quickly and easily checking an md5 without some stupid app or a computer. Plus, jcase is very easy to find and very helpful if there's a problem. I really can't endorse doing it the jcase way enough.

***LOCKED*** On Bootloader

Hello All,

First of all thanks for the awesome easy guide !!

This is the first time I am rooting my HTC Tbolt and have had an issue to start with.

Used the instructions in the link below:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1401959

After I download the 2.11.605.5 downgrade zip, I rename it, put in on the SD Card and go to HBOOT and it installs the downgrade just fine.

But at the end of this process, when I try to get the MR4 Radio onto the SD Card and install it, it simply does not happen. HBoot checks for the file, finds it, but nothing happens. I have renamed in properly and followed instructions to the dot.

I also noticed a ***LOCKED*** right on top of the screen and I think this could be an issue.

Can I go ahead and proceed with the Revolutionary Root Technique ? Would this be possible at this point ?

Is there anyway I can get Flash the MR4 Radio before I actually root ?

Also, would I be able to flash the MR4 Radio onto my device after Rooting ?

Any help is much appreciated !

Thanks in advance !

Cheers !
[Nook Color General] dvrdwn:
what are the pros or cons of upgrading to the latest nighly from cm 7.1.0-rc1?
[Nook Color General] wareagleben:
Look here.
[Nook Color General] ponyboy82:
Honestly, I'd say all pros and no cons. I forget when deep sleep was fixed, but there's that, USB host mode, integrated Dal's OC kernel, nightly 150 brought with it a fast bootup, and those are just the main things I can think of off the top of my head.
[Nook Color General] FatherSauce:
Do they have a set of instructions for install in one place or do I need to read through the thread for that? I remember there being things about uboot and stuff but I haven't read in a while.
[Nook Color General] nolook:
do you lose all you settings/apps if you just delete devlick cache? im on nightly 87 now...
[Nook Color General] Zhousibo:
I thought I would finish my upgrading of my Nook at cm 7.1.0-rc1. I was getting Sleep Of Death (SOD) and had read that some of the new nightlies had Dalingren's OC inbuilt so went the nightly option (now am on #150).

So if you have ROM Manager (Paid), then going to Nightlies is very easy and has all the new features. ROM Manager updates you on a new build and it is a quick download and install. Nightlies also do not reset your device. Dalvik and Cache do not lose your settings as well. So, if you have ROM Manager, I would go the nightlies (just make sure you backup everything).

I am not going to guarantee it will fix everything, hence keep upgrading but have some workarounds in place.

Pros:

- All the new features and fixes (you will see improved speed, smoothness, Dalingren's OC inbuilt). Am on #150.

- Easy to do (if on ROM Manager paid). Easy to do in general but ROM Manager simplifies in general.

Cons:

- Be prepared that you backup everything. Nightlies are beta and you could have to go back to previous rom or fresh install (everyone suggests a fresh install is optimum but have only done once).

- Difficult settling for one build. You end up upgrading quite frequently and a new one can potentially break things (only happened to me once where I had to go back to a previous build). You also end up checking the comments of the next build, thinking that the next one will be the perfect build.
