[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
I dunno, the "no calls/txt/data" is a problem that is hit-or-miss when you do a hands-free-activation....root or not. It happened to me, took me under 2 minutes to have fixed by Sprint, who did it happily.

People losing 4G? I don't think this network is robust enough to blame that on root...and even if that is in an area with a rock solid 4G signal I still think there may be some user intervention at play that isn't the fault of getting s-off all by it self.

The funky "turning on, or not, or plugged in, or not, or take out battery, or sdcard, or both, or not" problems were there from the begining...I used to think it was only certain phones, but, I think it's all phones in certain conditions. Being s-off and rooted gives us the ability to put the phone into more conditions where that may or may not happen.

...and as far as battery performance is concerned it's nearly impossible to prove that it ISN'T user/application related. I'm not saying it definitely IS their fault, but, it's impossible to prove that...so many conditions vary for your phone so frequently every day even if yours do not that battery life claims are nearly impossible to prove and impossible to refute based on any changed variable all by itself....not to mention a near 100% chance of someone else reporting the exact opposite condition.

...aside from my data going slow after hands-free-activation (which is fixed in 2 minutes) I have experienced none of these problems after rooting...okay, I take that back, I have experienced the "sometimes it turns on while plugged in, sometimes it doesn't"...but, it did that before s-off/root as well.

...and let's not forget that the s-off hack likely has nothing to do with these issues. I have the eng hboot...non-hacked. Just the way god intended. If it is from anything it would be from the rooting of the ROM, which I still doubt.

Honestly, compared to the initial period after the s-off/root exploits releases for other devices this doesn't seem out of the ordinary at all...and no offense meant, but, are you new to this?

EDIT: Oh yeah, to answer your question....yes, s-off and rooting were VERY worth it to me. Now bring on the AOSP
[HTC EVO 3D] coffeehandle:
No way. I hate having a better phone
[HTC EVO 3D] chong67:
I want to root my phone. The advantage far outweight the disadvantage? I am going to wait 1 more week.

Oh, I dont have any insurance on my new 3D phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] jayharper08:
Two words: User error. The problems you see are because people do not know what they are doing. Simple as that. Rooting your phone does nothing but give you permission to be able to do what you want to do with "your" phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
No offense OP. But you sound like a news reporter trying desperately to make a name for himself by finding some giant issue in something that has mostly only brought joy to everyone.

"TONIGHT!!. Jon Andersen goes on localtion to uncover the truth behind...PUPPIES!. what he finds may disgust you to the point of wanting to flush your own puppy. Stay tuned!!"

Are We Not Phones?

We are EVO.

ARE WE NOT PHONES?!

3DEVO!
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Yeah, that's a really good point. I think that Sprint in general has probably been taking in a lot of new users, likely mostly smartphone users, because of the unlimited data thing...and the fact that Sprint actually has the most compelling collection of smartphones right this second IMHO. Sadly I'm thinking about jumping ship since this signal is just useless to me in most places now, and that's to say nothing of the over-loaded network.

...not to mention the droves of E4G defectors who were following the developers, and the larger and more frequent droves of defectors from every phone from the last generation that want the developer support that the E4G had but they definitely did not see...and then there are all of the people who finally got off of their contract from Heros and Moments from when they were still hot items....

...so, yeah, there is just so many goddamned people in here that I'd be surprised if there weren't more complaints on average. Contrast this to the NookColor forum where there are far more actual tricky problems but nobody blames the root method for them missing a step or not understanding a process...not to mention how god damned civil it is around there.

Yeah, good call...

I dont need to explain myself. You, do not know what the hell you are talking about.

Worst troll post ever.....
[HTC EVO 3D] Compusmurf:
To me it was worth it. However I've noticed many issues are because folks don't read, can't follow instructions, make changes without knowing WHAT they are doing.

Sorry but if you don't know what changes you're making, what issues they cause, how to fix, how to undo what you screwed up, then they shouldn't be rooting, flashing and changing settings.

By "you" I don't necessarily mean you, but more of a "folks in general".

[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
Hey dude, it was a joke... I read your post and that is how it looked to me.

And really?... basing the success of something on a DEVELOPERS forum's Q&A section?

I can pull up every single phones Q&A section and get just as many, probably more issues in the general dates of when they where first rooted/cracked/jailbroken.

Soooooo, chill buddy.

reboot

4. As the device boots up you will be greeted by the "Dolby THX" test sound heard before movies. You are now free to replace the android_audio.mp3 file in /system/media with any .mp3 file you like as long as you rename it to "android_audio.mp3"

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] kirkcody:
Miui> make sure you select Voltron bootanimation in Theme Manager or just delete all downloaded bootanimations and the Voltron one will be your Default.*For audio just change mp3 to bootaudio.mp3, set in system/media and change permissions to rw-r-r-
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] kirkcody:
Another Reserve:D
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] vqt:
For MIUI Roms just another method...

Animation:

Download the boot animation file and rename it bootanimation.zip and place it into the system/media folder. Go to theme manager and under the "boot animation" tab select "default." No need to change permissions.

Sound:

To hear the boot sound you have to convert the file to ogg format then place it into the system/media/audio/ringtones folder. Go to theme manager and choose the file under the "boot audio" tab. You can name it anything you want. No need to change permissions. Ogg converter here.

I went ahead and uploaded the ogg file here for you guys.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] kirkcody:

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] kirkcody:
Thanks for the tutorial..yeah the slowness on boot bothers me but I've been reading up on thatand there's nothing I can do on my end its due to caching
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] vqt:
i don't know anything about making a boot animation but does it have to do with the frames/second. Usually i unzip a boot animation and look at the png's, it is like a flip cartoon book so i don't know if you need more frames in there to make it more smooth.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] kirkcody:
Yup its like a flipbook and the more frames taken the bigger the zip...I've been trying to solve this issue. I use powerarchiver to make the zips....but it really doesn't compress them much I think this animation alone was 235 still frames here's the tutorial I used incase anyone wants to learn http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1096068 :D

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
Will anyone want to take on this task? I would really appreciate it and I'm pretty sure other people would be interested in this.

I've searched the forum and found a few flashable zips for this mod but none work for new sense 2.1, 3.0 roms. I've even searched google and still nothing. I also found a couple of threads here and on android forums on how to remove the clock and I would try it myself with apk manager but I do not own a computer.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDV28:

I'm on unity right now. But its not my daily. My daily is panache. My tethering stopped working on panache so I'm waiting for drew to update. But I know alot of people use panache and unity. So if you or some one else that can, make the mod for both unity and panache sense versions would be great.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
Anyone else?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Archangel:
Depending on your rom, look into the settings an you can get rid of it
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
If I understand right, the easiest way would be to:

Decompile SystemUI.apk

Change layout.xml to reduce clock frame width to 0.

Recompile SystemUI.apk

If SystemUI doesn't hold dependencies on Sense framework, one file can be made for both ROMs. If it does - then it will have to be separate.

I'll try to do it some time today, and post the result if I get anywhere.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prztruspaz:
Miui how to ?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
In MIUI there's a menu option, if I remember right.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
I've modified SystemUI.apk as per my own suggestions above.

Now I need testers.

The file is attached. I'm uploading APK on purpose - to avoid happy flashers that'll flash anything without knowing how they'll revert from it.

You'll need to push it to /system/app/.

Howto:

Reboot to recovery

adb shell mount /system

adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app/

adb shell unmount /system

Reboot

In case it doesn't work - to restore do the same thing with SystemUI.apk from your ROM. If you don't have the ROM available - please back up SystemUI.apk before overwriting it.

If it works - I'll make it update.zip.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
Thanx for the effort but I tested it and it did not work. The systemui you edited breaks the signal icons and the clock is still there. It puts the signal bars infront of the 4G. Also the 4g icon is tiny and has the errows on top.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
another possible way is to use root explorer or some other file explorer that has rw access to the phone. copy the downloaded systemUI.apk from sdcard and move to /SYSTEM. (DON'T MOVE INTO /SYSTEM/APP YET OR YOU'LL GET FC'S.) change the systemUI.apk permissions to rw-r--r-- and then copy over to /system/app (tap yes when root explorer ask if you want to replace).
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
That's exactly how I did it. I didn't get fc's but still broke the status bar.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
I'll try to create another version today and test it myself.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
Thanx. I really appreciate the effort. I will hit the thank button for sure.

So.. in Royal Ginger (and CM7?) i have this option..

Royal Ginger Settings>Interface> Status Bar Tweaks> Show Clock

I have my status bar clock turned off. Also, under tablet tweaks, i've moved my status bar to the bottom.

I wouldn't try reinventing the wheel here.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Obviously, RoyalGinger / CM7 are different ROMs, and have this option made in code and compiled from source. Sense ROMs can't be compiled, since nobody but HTC has the source, thus it must be made differently.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
I did state in my first post for sense roms, if it wasn't for sense I would've never started the topic. I know asop roms like cm have that tweak, I've used them before.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
Where the pros at?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
I have not heard of such a thing in sense, perhaps check the desire hd section that' where a lot of activity is, especially on sense mods. I know miui has the option too, but i see you dont use that.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
I know it can be done. It has been done before as you can see from the links I posted below. Only problem with those methods and flashable zips is that they are outdated and for other devices like for droids and evos. I tried a few of the flashable zips I've found but they all abort.

I guess I'm just going to try to figure this one out myself. I just wish I could compile from my phone since I don't own a pc. Lol

Making the fix through decompiling and recompiling services.jar makes it very ROM-dependent, since this file is different in different ROM versions.

You can specify a single specific version and I'll be able to decompile and recompile the file for you.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
Well, try the service.jar for VU version 1.31 since its what I'm using right now.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Ok, I had some time and checked.

All those guides are completely irrelevant - they're all for Froyo, while in Gingerbread all the relevant UI functions were moved to SystemUI.apk and changed.

On the other hand, the method I used is functional - I was just trying to do the minimal amount of changes and left 0-sized clock in the bar, which didn't work, but the clock should be completely removed from the bar - and then everything should work. Here's the reference:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1086066

So, attached the new SystemUI.apk with the clock completely removed from the bar. Please test and reply.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
Oh yeah! Right on the money my man. Great job bro. I really appreciate it. I never liked the clock up there. At first when pushing the apk it looked broken, but I just reboot it and everything is great now. Nothing is broken and no clock. All I need to do is cook up a transperant pulldown for this and it'll be perfect for me.

You should make this mod official man. I'm pretty sure alot of people would want it. Might want to make a beta version too since alot of people are using it now. But again thanx for the work. Came out great.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
You're welcome, glad it worked.

Thanks for suggestion. Since this mod is only relevant for Sense, I'll probably take a couple of Sense's different versions' SystemUI.apk, mod them and post the mod.

You don't need to pay for AV software when the free versions are perfectly adequate. Microsoft Security Essentials is a low-footprint, and very effective, alternative to the bloatware packages that others offer. Avira is popular too, as is AVG. I use MSE as it integrates well with Windows and is neatly presented.

It's worth keeping a copy of Malwarebytes handy no matter what AV software you use, as it's a good last ditch resort for cleaning up the nasties that may not be caught by other software.

As always, using System Restore from Recovery or having a System Image Backup to re-install with are also a help when everything goes south. A good backup strategy is always the best option.

You should see "UrukDroid? 1.0 Installation framework" title. Please choose simple install method. When asked to, connect Archos to PC (5) once again and copy UrukDroid?-install.tgz, disconnect Archos from PC properly (umount, safely remove device etc.) and press power button (2) shortly. Now EI will check installation file and prepare it for next step.

never saw / or see UrukDroid? 1.0 Installation framework , and so turning into a circle

...can anyone help me out , archos is almost dead

Thanks
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
You have to do this:

Boot (Volume Down - )>>Recovery System>>Repair Device>>Refomat Disk

After this you have to connect your archos to your pc and copy a *.aos file from archos.com (firmware)

after this procedure, your archos will have the normal archos os and the sde

You should try to install urukdroid again, you may had a wrong zImage or initramfs...
