[HTC EVO 3D] DiGiTY:
Furthermore, vBulletin, phpBB, Wiki* and most technologies used to share and publish information and content are just terribly inefficient in regards to topics like these (Android, rooting, development, tech, etc.). Newcomers simply can not come into forums like these and find the info or content they want consistently. You can tag, break stuff up into sub-forums and make stickies like 3M 'til your blue in the face but until you fully understand a noob's thought process and behavior and have the software reflect that we forever will have these problems.

One temporary resolution is to try to change the one variable we can change in this equation. That is to try to cease the negative comments since we already know noobs and their questions are a constant.

Do not use the HTC root method, just use the Revolutionary method and before doing so download and copy TWRP and a ROM and flash in HBOOT\Recovery
[HTC EVO 3D] gausley:
root with s-on

Like an idiot, I unlocked my bootloader via official HTC way. I have not rooted my phone with revolutionary, my phone was completely stock. I was able to flash CWM via fastboot and install superuser via CWM.

Just out of curiosity (I properly rooted), what does having an unlocked bootloader (like HTC gives you) let you do, if not flash whatever ROM you want?

Hi, after a few days of trying, I'm releasing a prelimitary Dual OS solution for Defy. It's not very complete yet but it's good enough for daily use (the 'dual' part, not the MS2 port or MIUI).

Before you ask, yes I've tried using SDCARD (system+data or data-only), it's just too slow for daily use. app2sd would be a better solution.

Features:

Well it's a Dual OS, what can I say. (MS2 port + MIUI)

You can update the two system independently (admittedly a bit hard for the 2nd OS as of now)

Advance Settings in the 1st OS, try it!

Draw backs:

It eats up 327MB (may size down a bit in future releases) of your /data and the two OS use the same space for it's apps so you have 700~800MB free /data to split between two systems. I'm using memhack to save some space.

The two OS included isn't very stable

Only 2.2 kernel supported as of now

Installation:

Root your defy and install any ClockWorkMod/Bootmenu/Snd-init if you don't already have one

Download the RAR file and extract 'clockworkmod' folder to the root directory of your SDCARD

Boot to your CWM, choose restore, and restore "DualDefy_v2.11". DO NOT WIPE after restoring or you loose the 2nd system.

Reboot system and it will boot into the primary system

To enter MIUI, press VolDown during blue LED when booting and enter Bootmenu, choose boot -> 2nd-boot and wait

Note:

It will reboot once during first-ever boot to generate a overclock(etc.) config file. *Do not use the overclock function in bootmenu* It's in "Settings -> Advanced Settings".

How to wipe:

To perform a wipe correctly (without loosing one of the system), follow the instructions:

To wipe 2nd OS, just delete /data/2nd-data with RootExplorer or "adb shell rm -r /data/2nd-data" in the CMD/Terminal window without quote. -- While booted into th 1st OS of course

To perform a full wipe, backup the 2nd OS, just copy /data/system.img to the root of your SDCARD (/sdcard/system.img), the wip as you normally do. It will be copied back if you choose 2nd-boot again.

To wipe the 1st OS: boot into 2nd OS, delete everything in /data2 except "/data2/2nd-data" folder and "/data2/system.img"

Thanks:

To all the devs who layed the ground work (Skrilax_CZ, CyanogenDefy team and many more) which ultimately made this possible.

And thanks to all the people who were helping me test it over at bbs.mfunz.com

Interesting finding. Let's hope it will come a day when we could select those 2 ROM's that are installed... so it will be possible install a stable ROM as primary, for daily use, while for the second we can opt for some test beta ROM's.

He want to say: the video didnt work for green lens (same is at mine) on MS2 not MIUI.

pictures are ok, i can make pics and see them in gallery.

when i press on video mode and start, the application block himself and no video recording.

And for the second rom (you chose MIUI) better please chose the MIUI from miuiandroid.com because the one from miui.us have many, many chinesse letter in menu after i chose english (i just tryed).

Will be nice when all work fine to help us and learn how to put 2 roms that we want :)
[Defy Android Development] racca:
Sorry, missed that spot:o, it wasn't done by me and there are many many things I'm dissatisfied about the one I released.

This was put together in a rush before I have no time (like right now) to do anything further.

I am planning on making it a bit more flexible. And I have already made MIUI OTA via recovery usable as of now.

I have tried a couple different ones and neither worked. What is a good working car charger for this phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknown_Hero:
Any micro USB car charger should work, I like the HTC one since it has to usb ports so you can charge two things at once. You might have a bad fuse if multiple chargers arent working in your car though.
[HTC EVO 3D] molitar:
No I think they don't provide enough power. I hear they require 1.0-2.0 amp car chargers. Guess most cheap ones including one from Radio Shack only does about half amp. Worked good for my old TP2 but not for my Evo 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] Unknown_Hero:
Weird...yeah usually go with a OEM car charger always instead of the cheap generic chargers that's what I do and they work fine.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] slack04:
Just a heads up- looks like many of the other cases reviewed here but this one is only $10 shipped. I just ordered one; I'll review it when it arrives. 9 5-star reviews!

*Edit: looks like it's up to $15. Still, appears to be the same as the pyro case and a few others that sell for twice that.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...-options=see-all-buying-options&condition=new
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] dhuangxda:
Wow, that looks almost exactly like the Pyro skin clip case that I just bought for $30 bucks. It's listed on amazon for $14.95+shipping now. How did you get it for $10 shipped? If the quality and build is anything like the pyro, I'd be intrigued :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] slack04:
looks like they upped it. It was $9.98 when I posted.

I think that the pyro case (and several others) are the same rebranded chinese thing. I really don't care, all I want is to pay less for it. At $15, it still beats most of the others by at least a few bucks. I'll review it when it gets here.

BTW- I'll update the OP with the price.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] cubanaso:
I bought this case from amazon for 9.98 shipped and received it in two days! They apparently had a promotion going because they refunded my money and let me keep the case for free in exchange for a review. Great case, great build quality and looks great!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] akarol:
This is the 3rd variation of the same case. I think it's all the same manufacturer just different distributors. I'm in!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] shigga:
Just got mine for 9.98 great quality and got it for free after I left them a review.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] akarol:
I don't know how everybody is giving this case such great reviews. Sure, it's cheap and does its job, but the quality is definetely not there. I got mine yesterday and the clips on the top seem somewhat uneven between each corner. Also, the case does not stay fully flat when holding the tablet opened in your hands. That's quite annoying and makes it basically unusable to me. The case also seems to bulge when closed due to the middle clamps holding the tablet; which, by the way, cover a bit of the bottom portion of each speaker.

For the price, I'd give this case 4 stars, but 5 stars is just too much. People are easily satisfied I suppose.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] slack04:
Look, I don't disagree that it's not perfect, but after owning many, many different cases for many different tablets, I have to say that this one is about as good as it gets for the price. The only cases I've seen that are better quality cost $50 or more. Maybe you got one that is defective; for the price that wouldn't surprise me. Get them to replace it. Also, please don't dismiss those of us that are happy with the case with "People are easily satisfied I suppose." That's rude.

BTW- I tried to figure out what you were talking about when you said "the case does not stay fully flat when holding the tablet opened in your hands" and realized the problem: you're not holding it tight enough. It's new material and needs to be conditioned. Squeeze it a bunch of times to loosen and crease the bottom edge.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] akarol:
I'll try to conditition it when I get home. Do you also notice a bulge when closing it from the middle clips?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] jaewon223:
does this case fit with an invisible shield by zagg?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] slack04:
Yes. I have a clearprotector full body protector and it fits fine. So far no problem with it catching when I open and close the flap.

BTW- I think this is exactly the same case as the "pyro case" which has a huge thread here. Except much less expensive...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] akarol:
Please be honest guys, does your case stay flush when opening it 360 degrees without pushing it against its back? I find this highly annoying. I've been trying to break the leather all day and have had no success!

Also, anyone else here find that the locking flap marked their tablet over time? I'd hate for that to happen.

Thanks in advance...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] vuabip00:
how u do that? i just order mine
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] glwilliams4:
I received my case with a note that said if I left a 5-star review I would be given a full refund, thus getting my case for free. I'm assuming that's why it's getting so many 5-star reviews.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] cubanaso:
My case doesn't stay flush (if you mean folding it completely back like a magazine?) but neither did my belkin ultra thin folio. I believe its because of the design. The only way I can see it staying flush is if the material used was very pliable or there was a hinge (kind of like a notebook with rings).

Also, I too felt that it might scratch my tab with the front clip, but so far it hasnt. Overall, its a good case and in some aspects better than the belkin ultra thin folio.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] akarol:
Yeah, it's growing on me. I do wish it stayed more fluch when fully opened. I feel they could have made the flap holding both parts together a bit longer to allow that to happen.

I'm going barenaked with the tablet on this thing. I really hope it doesn't scratch the edges of my tablet. I have been puyshing the locking flap a bit outward so there's not much resistance to close it. Seems to help a bit.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] shigga:
I got a letter shipped with mine that basically said to do a review for the case and rate it and my payment would be refunded. Wrote the review and was refunded the next day.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] kruznix:
gah so frustrating!! amazon doesnt ship to nz....sigh sigh.....
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] Buji:
What on earth would make this case incompatible with the verizon version of the tab? Something in the case blocking the 4g signal?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] akarol:
Uhhh... what about the different position of the buttons on the LTE models? Look up the user uploaded photos on the Amazon description of the Pyro Case.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] |flyte|:
Just to confirm what you guys are saying.... this case is the same as this Pyro case reviewed here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1204995

And the charging connector is not blocked when the case is on..?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] akarol:
Nope. There is an opening on the folding edge of the case to allow for charging when the case is closed. You will, however, need to remove the charging cable and plug it back in if you want to open the case while charging.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] |flyte|:
so is the case the same as the previously linked Pryo case?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] OgremustCrush:
I ordered this case and amazon's estimated arrival isn't until the end of september. Sure hope that isn't accurate.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] FordTaurus:
Sounds about right since it isn't expected back in stock till the 17th.

[XPERIA X10 General] lghost1213:
In short: The main purpose is to create a list of testing protocols to prevent time and brain lost, which could maximized the efficiency/chance of create a most stable rom and minimized the bugs and bragging sound from tester.

Today just check in the forum, got a fancy idea through my mind.

After seeing many tester having trouble with new rom and some apps can't open or FC or whatsoever, May be we need to build out a testing protocol such as like set a test range, from apps to game, from system to UI, from camera to video, to provide convenient list of test standard for developers. (I mean the testing plan/protocol)

I'm not bragging about our developers are careless or something like that, they are amazing but still human, and sometimes they need to rush out the rom for the other but accidently slip through their mind, therefore need to spend extra time to create hotfix or upload entire rom again to the cloud. Plus, we can gather many tester perspective to united in one plan, therefore we can eliminate the smallest bugs as possible.

My first roughly plan of testing standard, just a roughly examples of the list, not my real consideration. But If everyone is supporting this plan, everyone can contribute which apps should be test and which apps are always got problem and need to keep in check list.

Apps:

flash light

operamini

astro

barnacle wifi

Gapps:

market

Gmail

youtube

Gmaps

gallery

G+

Launcher:

launcher pro

launcher 7

ADW EX

hardware:

back key

volume key

power key

center key

camera key

system apps:

setting apk

timescape apk

alarm apk

So, any thought?:)
[XPERIA X10 General] evildante:
thanx a lot
[XPERIA X10 General] lghost1213:
Gosh it just an example list alright? I need many people and dev to approve and helps so i/we can put the real effort on it.
[XPERIA X10 General] eddiecsilva:
Good idea!

I understand that chefs have a lot of things very complicated to test.

Here are some items that I always test when I try new roms:

- Web browser without flash player.

- Web browser with flash player.

- Sending SMS / MMS (very important for me).

- Pictures in all resolutions.

- Install apps from the Market (facebook is often a source of problems).

- Stability of the 3G / wifi.

- Responsiveness to enter menus and screens.
[XPERIA X10 General] spaarc:
LOOK ,

This is approved

But your whole idea is that devs forget some useful things

Ure right devs do forget WiFi tether and astro ...

But including them increases the ROM size . Not a very big issue

Flash light? What do you mean? Using the phone as a flashlight or photography flash?

I had a Mitsubishi phone once, that had such a bright blue screen, you could use it for a flashlight, and the X10's screen is great in the dark as one, too.

MMS/SMS, 3G/H/E, phone calls, import of vcf files for contacts, restore of apps and data with either TI or MyBackup, Bluetooth stack. Camera, Gallery, Music. Some sort of standard email/some standard sync. Anything else is a problem with the app.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
If it's a cdma carrier. Otherwise no.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
I believe it's impossible. At best, all you'll be able to do is voice and nothing more. No data at all, whether 3G or 4G. Network authentication is done differently on an LTE device. They will ask you for an ESN number, which you will not be able to find anywhere on the device.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
Eh, not entirely true. I checked out the carrier and it's sprint's cdma network so he should get voice and 3g data fine. Obviously won't be getting anything above 3g speeds though.

speeds though :)

To the OP if you are really motivated to do it, I would read this as it shows how others have done it for the thunderbolt.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
Sprint doesn't use a compatible data network authentication scheme as Verizon, so no, he will have no data service unless he can find a ROM for the Tbolt specifically ported from a Sprint device. It's well known that Sprint devices such as the EVO line don't work on Verizon, and that Verizon devices such as the dInc and dInc2 will not work on Sprint. I've worked with both.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
if you say so...:rolleyes:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
It's easy enough to look up. Search the dInc forums. I know there's several threads there addressing this issue. I'd be surprised if the EVO 4G forum didn't have a few too, and I know there's at least 1 or 2 in the Tbolt forum that address this issue as well; a fact I considered pointing out to the OP. Furthermore, Tbolts don't have ESN numbers. They interface with both the 3G and 4G protocols differently than standard CDMA devices.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1138411

This kinda explains what I'm saying. If you can't do it with a straight CDMA device without a world-class hassle, it's functionally impossible with a Tbolt.
