w8 for these type of phones from china

[General Questions and Answers] BlueStarEnt:
Magic :

The Samsung "R" is considered a cheaper version of the S2. It is probably better to get a used S2. The Magic was released two years ago, so a used Galaxy S or S2 would be a better idea. The "R" also has a bigger screen.

China phones are known to be cheaper in quality. Your money, so far, is used better elsewhere. Good luck !
[General Questions and Answers] MaasGijsbert:
i dont want to spent a lot of money for a smartphone so it will be a cheap normal phone or a china phone.

Could someone tell me more about the performance of china phones?

yours sincerely

ps: thanks so far for your replys
[General Questions and Answers] Nealson:
Many of the world's mobile phones are manufactured in China, quality is good, if it is China's domestic mobile phone is more limited, but the quality of foreign trade and price are guaranteed
[General Questions and Answers] toffzter:
You need to look for phones that have these names: Lenovo, Zopo, THL, ZTE, Meizu, and Huawei. They have good quality. Check out this site for some of the phone models mentioned and some reviews of China phones: China Phone Review

"Air Phone" vs "iPhone"

I wouldn't be in a hurry to buy one.

I cannot supply the following URL as I am a junior menmber; and very annoyingly I am NOT even allowed to thank people... (serioulsy)

"Youtube" then type the following "/watch?v=TUT39op2Pp8"

I did consider getting the "Air Phone 4" (See above) fortunately this review saved me the money. I'd be looking for a secondhand UK Android smartphone.

That said it is usually the data that is the expensive part; so I would be more concerned by the tarriff.

(HTC Rooted Sensation - ICS - Very happy with the HTC - I wouldn't now buy the iphone by choice)

---------- Post added at 10:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 AM ----------

Just followed your link - your chosen phone was £105.

According to Play.com (i'm sure they can be beaten on price)

HTC Explorer £100

HTC Wildfire £150

I would rather have an HTC rather than a random cheap deal.

For the best deal you do need to factor in calls/data/texts, say over 24 months usage.

Most likely a rooted 2.2 evo running a rooted stock 2.3 gingerbread rom; this has to be the case as there is no root for gingerbread.
[EVO 4G General] Rem3Dy:
Obviously.
[EVO 4G General] deathsled:
what is a 2.2 rooted gingerbread rom? That doesnt even make sense.

There is absolutely root for stock gingerbread, just not if you accepted the OTA.

This guy probably just updated the phone to a pre-rooted Sprint EVO gingerbread rom obtained from right here on XDA.
[EVO 4G General] Invisibility:
Well you just failed, lol. Next time just type it out; 2.2. FYI gingerbread is 2.3.
[EVO 4G General] Crossrocker:
I think he means it was rooted as 2.2 and then updated to a 2.3 rom

Deck's + SZ + SuperCharger script + ViperMod script.
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
Sorry to everyone for that atrocious typo; I was on my thrive tablet, and xda wasn't playing nice. But yes, a rooted 2.2 running a 2.3 rooted stock rom. :p
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Even with the typo it wasn't hard to understand.
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
Maybe so, but it got more attention than it should have, so it had to be fixed.

Though on the point, its people like him that scam everyone into buying something its not, then let someone new to xda buy it then start a thread of 'I HAVE S-OFF GINGERBREAD ROOT!'

Just calling it now.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marioiram:
Hey.

My desire is driving me crazy! :(

It is (was) rooted and s-offed with a Coolexe-ROM on it.

A few month ago I opened a thread where I described random reboots an freezes. This somehow stopped after 2 weeks or so and I could use my desire as usual. Before that, there was this problem with the SD card, which couldn't be mounted. It wasn't working anymore and I bought a new one.

Since yesterday evening the random freezes, reboots and shutdowns started again. So badly that I could hardly keep it on for a few minutes.

I noticed, that the signal bar was showing the little cross mark, so that I couldn't even place calls or text someone.

So I decided to do a RUU flash, hoping that rooting it again and so on would solve the problem.

Turns out it didn't!

The signal bar is randomly showing me the cross icon (sometimes I have H or G connection though). In this unrooted state it doesn't freeze, reboot or shut down.

I tried to save the data from my SD card 2 times (in harddrive-mode), but after a while the windows explorer wasn't reacting and crashed.

I was able to save some of the data though.

This seems like a hardware problem (doesn't it?)...

Has someone experienced similar problems? (could this be the famous motherboard fault?)

Is it the SD card, or is the desire bricking the sd card?

I have no idea what to do. Is this something I could fix myself or do I have to send it in? :confused:

Hope someone can help me...

edit: I just noticed, that when windows explorer crashes and I change back to charging only-mode, I cannot view the SD card state under the settings menu...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kshitijgandhi:
Did you try removing the SD card and use the SD card by a card reader?

Also flash a new Rom? Or factory reset?

Hope you have a nand backup
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marioiram:
when I tried using a card reader my PC wouldnt even recognize the card...

after the RUU-flash I did a factory reset from the settings menu... or is there another way?

I mean, shouldnt it be like a factory reset anyways after a RUU-flash?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kshitijgandhi:
If I am correct ruu deals with the recovery and radio part

I'm not sure though

Try contacting senior members
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marioiram:
as it seems my SIM card is at least part of the reason.

I put in another one and the connection problems are gone. but now they appear in the phone in which I put the old SIM ^^

so maybe (hopefully) it is just the SIM which I am going to change tomorrow in a shop.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Geeve:
http://www.funny-games.biz/robokill.html

Tried to play this game, just to see how it is on the phone. The big surprise was, I could use the D-pad so I could walk around and shoot.

So it's really possible, it auto-detects the PC's keyboard so you can play other games?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
If you have an older Android with a dpad such as a Huawei Selina, you'll find that it is recognized there as well.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] GetPatriotized:
Well the Xperia Play's D-Pad is recognized as D-Pads on other Android phones.

Just like X is confirm and O is back.

Is it possible?

if there are a couple of files that build it ill appreciate for a list of them
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Thats the advanced power menu usually its part of a rom or can be flashed via zip dependant upon rom .Not in a custom rom then it may not be suitable .

Standalone zip will be in Themes .

is it possible to do what i wanted to do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
It's unclear what you are trying to say, but that Advanced Power Menu as jje said. It came pre installed with Batista ROM. It is not there in Stock ROM's unless you do some mod. See Development section for that.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poetter747:
Hi all,

I'm looking for a method to sync app data between my phone and the TF. Apps i have in mind are mostley games. The other thing is my ebook reader. I used Moon+ reader on my phone, but it has no cloud integration. Can anyone recommend a sync app or a reader that can sync my reading progress?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cupricreki:
So, if i understand correctly, you want to read to a certain point on your TF101, then pick up your phone and continue reading from the same point?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poetter747:
yes, that's right. This and if it is possible the data of apps like paradise island. I think it stores it's data in a folder on SD card. So in other words in looking for a way to sync folders on sdcard.

I know that some apps keep their data in /data. Is there some app that can sync these? Is root required for that?
[7 Mozart General] Mady4Real:
I'm plannig to get HTC Mozart, but there are some issues i have to reconsider before going for purchase and for that purpose i need some advice from its users..

1) first i would like to know which OS version of WP, Can be jailbreaked with chevron?

2) What are the pros and cons for jailbreaking

3) as em from Pakistan where Marketplace service is not available, so can i download free apps from marketplace by jailbreaking or it is possible without jailbreaking it?

4) And what other problems are you guys facing as a user :|

And yes i did some research on google, but still confuse on above few points..
[7 Mozart General] ZeeShh:
Marketplace service is available in Pakistan, you can download any app from it.

why you want to jailbreak it? I assume you mean unlocking it so you can use other SIMs in it? unlocking can be done for £8-15/- over the internet and then phone is free to use in Pakistan with any SIM.

It's windows phone 7 OS on HTC Mozart and Microsoft is expected to rollout its major update in september.

No problem with it and in my opinion it's much much better then iPhone or Androids ;)
[7 Mozart General] Nomi92:
1) to ``jailbreak`` you must either chevron unlock on a 7004 (original firmware in your mozart) or upgrade to the DFT mango rom(where you will no longer be able to download official xbox live games, only side load)

2)on my above post

3)you can without jailbreak as long as you create a Windows live id of a supported country and enter that to register your mozart.

4)its a brilliant device but i could use a better batter :P other than that I dont think I`ve had any other problem

hope i helped

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shuandroid:
hi everyone,

I recently rooted my phone from 2.3.4 GRJ22 and now the phone is sold but the person wants it unrooted, so far I backed up the stock 2.3.4 and restored it. also locked the bootloader. I still have root apparently as I can see the Superuser icon in teh drawer. Does anyone know how to remove this?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jungbum:
Can you not remove from Settings > Applications > Manage applications?

If not, you can download the full stock 2.3.4 ROM and copy the file to sdcard/ directory, go into the recovery from power off by pressing power + volume up, and flash the stock ROM. It will remove root and SuperUser.

As for locking the bootloader, assuming that you have adb and fastboot setup on your computer, you can open command prompt.

Go to your android directory in C drive and enter the following command:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shuandroid:
If I download the stock rom. Do I need custom recovery? In order to flash it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rentaric:
You need a custom recovery to flash any unsigned apps/ROMs.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borky_16:
type in cmd with adb set up!

adb shell

cd /system/app

rm superuser.apk

exit

adb reboot bootloader

-wait till reboot-

fastboot oem lock

fastboot reboot

done!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shuandroid:
the adb is set up but before i command the adb shell. which directory should I be on?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thiagodark:
Just download the stock android rom for your device, get in cwm recovery, format system, boot and data and flash the stock... that is it, your phone is fresh as new.

You can flash the stock rom from stock recovery (because it is signed and not custom ron), but it won't erase the superuser app and binary, that's why you should format system in cwm.

You can remove using adb too, but if you want to remove every sign of root, you should also remove /system/bin/su

Thank thiago and everyone else. I just flashed the stock rom 2.3.3 and updated OTA 2.3.4. back to stock and happy. Thanks again
[Verizon Droid Charge] eric2112:
Has anyone used the HTC Android kitchen to modify a ROM?

It looks as though if you don't mess with the boot.img and just stick with the factoryfs.rfs you would be ok. Would this be correct?

I would like to learn more about this stuff and wanted some feedback prior to flashing any mods from this to my phone. Not too worried about soft-bricking, but don't wanna perma-brick.

Any input is welcome. Sorry if this is a nubish question.

Many warnings in "Official Demos" are unacceptable. I tested and only one demo can complied and worked - it is "PenEventCompatibiilityDemo".

I think they must upgrade flyer to Honeycomb first, because even I make the apps but I can't test it in actual device....:(

THIS IS A DEVELOPER ONLY THREAD SO ONLY DEVELOPER POSTS WILL BE ALLOWED.

[*]NO THANK YOU, SOCIAL TALKS AND WHEN WILL IT BE AVAILABLE POSTS ALLOWED.

IF THERE WILL BE ANY DEVELOPMENT IT WILL BE POSTED HERE.

FOR EVERYONE ELSE ONLY WORKING PART IS THE POLL ON THE TOP.

Hello everyone,

I am starting this thread for the development and discussion on porting htc sense on our galaxy s ii devices. I have had discussions with some of the developers from the galaxy s forums, who have agreed to help on creating a port for our devices. The original galaxy s thread can be found here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1044637 since i am going to be the only beta tester right now, anyone who is keen to be a

beta tester

please pm me and i would reply back to you. This is just a starting point of the port so do not expect any developments for weeks or maybe months.

The thread has been made specially for the development/porting of the htc sense ui on our devices. So please be advised that there should be no posts regarding non development and if you are new here, do not bother to post anything.

DEVELOPERS

The thread was made for the porting and development of htc sense 3.0 on our devices, i would like to request all the developers to lend a hand where ever possible so that we can make the project into a reality. Please come forward and help in any way possible into this project. Currently, kenia1234 has agreed on heading a startup for this project and will also be looking into the details when ever he can. I hope to see everyone working along and helping in getting desired results. Anyone with coding skills can join this project and since it will be a collaboration among the developers. It will soon become a donation thread, and everything will be shared equally among everyone. I am going to send invites and requests to all the chefs and coders on SGS II forum tomrrow, hopefully some will follow and update the thread.

BETA USERS

Since this project cannot be achieved unless there are users who are actually helping in the development by sending in the bug reports and information on whats working and whats not, anyone who is willing to give this a whirl can send a pm to me and i will send you the information about the project and how to become a beta user. NO MORE BETA USER REQUEST PLEASE !!!

IRC CHANNEL

An official channel for this port has been made available on the IRC and if anyone wants to join or help with the port is free to come and join. You can join us at #GalaxySense and we are located on chat.freenode.net

PROGRESS

Once we have a working Sense UI on the devices, alpha beta and then RC builds will be released. Depending on the time frame it will be hard to say when the progress will start and when we will start looking at the complete picture. So please be pateint and wait for the post to be updated. I hope to see the port completed in two months time. It may take a bit more, but once we have a working port it will be released to the beta users and then the general public ( xda members) :D .

INSTALLATION GUIDE.

***** IMPORTANT *******

Make sure to do a complete backup of your rom as well as of your /efs as this is going to be a beta testing, so you are at risk. Do not complain if your phone does not restart I have not done anything to your phone, You volunteered for it. Though we might be able to get the phone back from the dead. Also make sure you save all your data, before flashing this rom as it will wipe everything. :D

Copy the file to the Internal SD Card in your phone.

Reboot your phone to CWM recovery mode.

Select wipe cache/factory reset'

[*]Select wipe cache partiton.

Then go to mounts and storage

Unmount /system-> Format /system -> Mount /system

Unmount /cache-> Format /cache-> Mount /cache

Finally go back and Select Install zip from sdcard.
