This won't affect the ability to gain s-off as HTC will address that when they bring the unlocking bootloaders stateside but of course sprint can and prolly did request a root exploit patch at the OS level which i guess unless u flash an engineering bootloader once s-off that supports fastboot commands, u would not be able to flash custom roms or install a recovery. True it's better off overall to just wait for the talented devs here to get their hands on it and make sure it's clean/and or clean it up first.
[HTC EVO 3D] constevens:
I understand this is a Manual Download. BUT Just a reminder where is it you can find to turn off any updates from hitting your Phone without approval?? I want to make sure I have mine set to not revive any so i dont lose root.
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
Go to settings system updates then go to HTC software updates and there is a box
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Yeah, I won't be using anything HTC provides. We're still not sure that they will provide us with anything but an unlocked bootloader and r/w access to /system let alone s-off. There's a pretty popular theory that they simply would not provide true s=off access because of the access that would supposedly give to the simlock options for GSM phones...and I doubt they will give us something that they won't give everybody else.

Now, an unlocked bootloader and r/w access to /system is pretty much all we are actually looking for here, the s=off is almost more a symbolic thing at that point...but this whole absurd battle is pretty much symbolic anyway. If we wanted an "unlocked" phone we have plenty of other options, we could have just bought one.

...and then there is the issue of voiding your warranty, which is complete bull****. I have loved HTC, even with some of the glaringly obvious issues this phone has. But this bootloader fiasco has convinced me that if I want a phone with features X and Y then I should probably just buy a phone that intentionally comes with features X and Y instead of one that is intentionally engineered to NOT give me features X and Y.

I'll reconsider if and when HTC starts shipping phones unlockable out-of-the-box. But until then HTC, sadly, is on my **** list.

[HTC EVO 3D] aalabiso:
I have a stock Evo3D and I installed the update this morning. The update includes changes to the fastboot oem command that include the "get_identifier_token" argument, which allows Evo3D owners the ability to unlock the bootloader via HTC's process for the Sensation.

I flashed the new update.

Rebooted to fastboot with USB attached

Ran "fastboot oem get_identifier_token"

Pasted the token into the HTC site

They sent a file via email to flash to the device

I rebooted into recovery and verified the bootloader was unlocked but still S-ON.

Warning: This process wipes your data.
[HTC EVO 3D] mababer2:
Radio=0.97.10.0808

Hboot=1.50.0000
[HTC EVO 3D] mababer2:
And yes holding power and home does take a screeny
[HTC EVO 3D] Faluzure:
Wow.. it works. This is one of the best features of the new update.

Not trolling. On an iPad in the middle of a meeting. Trying to multi-task by sacrificing the reading part.
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
So its unlocked but s-on still real question is does it allow u to flash custom recovery or install the root app or a custom ROM
[HTC EVO 3D] XsMagical:
Can anyone with the OTA, extract the new radio and upload it?

Where is the google talk video in this new update ???
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
It's built into the "Talk" app on the phone. You'll see a picture of a camera where you would normally see a dot indicating their status.
[HTC EVO 3D] rattlesnake8:
may be i'm missing something, can someone confirm google talk video chat working on their evo 3D ??? i'm not seeing any camera picture in the talk app :(
[HTC EVO 3D] varaff:
Nope... using stock and have updated to 2.3.4. no video

[HTC EVO 3D] jhill000:
After update

Phone has rebooted twice, giving me a popup to send the error to HTC for the unexpected reboot. Now I just had to remove the battery because the phone was completely off and would not turn on from the power button. I have not experienced this/these issues prior to the update today.

Also seeing some odd behavior, after I unlock the phone, my home screen is blank. When I swipe left or right it comes back, but initially only see my wallpaper and no apps/widgets.
[HTC EVO 3D] JimboJiizzm:
I got my OTA today, Aug. 18. it is 2.3.4
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:
no really you must be the first
[HTC EVO 3D] splat matt:
Is this typical with Sprint? I'm a new customer and it impresses me to see the regular updates. Or is it because HTC can provide updates on this phone that don't affect the carrier settings.

Update was smooth - phone came from being rooted and restored to its unroot state using the stock RUU 1.13.651.7

S-on restored via fastboot command.

Plan on keeping it unrooted though - out of the box this is the first droid phone that I don't feel the need to flash various roms.
[HTC EVO 3D] xPSYCHOTRONx:
So for those of us who are all stock and not rooted or anything, is it ok to do the update or will this ruin rooting/s-off in the future for me?

For the most part both HTC and sprint are pretty good about updates i think they are anyways
[HTC EVO 3D] jxr94:
Believe me, if you're deciding between this update and root, go with root. This update will just get changed into a flashable zip before today is over, and then you will have the best of both worlds. If you truly can't wait though, do what you want.

Edit: Allow me to correct myself. It is a flashable zip already.

[HTC EVO 3D] coffeehandle:
Cheezy.. have you tried just the radio n pri?
[HTC EVO 3D] TeknoJnky:
I'm confused.

I have s-off via revolutionary, running the original stock rom (with all previous ota), and clockwork mod recovery.

I have flashed my s-off evo4g with sprint OTA's and all I had to do was re-load the recovery via h-boot.

So does this new ota h-boot remove revolutionary and s-off? or will I still have-soff and just need to re-flash recovery via hboot again?

I am aware that I can download the zip from the dev forum, but I am talking about applying the OTA over revolutionary+CWM.
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:
yep flashed pri prl and rpm all flashed fine

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drexnx:
I know this is a fairly common problem, what are people doing about it?

mine does it on sense and aosp roms, on the MR2 and .703 leaked radio, on charger and on battery (across 3 different batteries!) no matter if I set the min at 184 or 256mhz, no matter the governor.

does it maybe 3x a day and I'm finally just fed up with it.

should I go back to stock and ***** at a brick and morter vzw store until they give me a new one?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DRGilroy:
I think you already have your answer. Try running without under/overclocking, under/over volting and see how your Thunderbolt performs. Not all phones are created equal nor are kernels. :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sporty377:
If u increased ur min to 368 and switch to ondamandx as ur governor u should be good....

I was have the same problem so I did this and it worked for me
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drexnx:
it seems that switching from the MR2.5 to the 802 radio fixed it for me
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dnakaman:
As the second poster said, it's probably more an issue with your over/undervolting that is causing your reboot issues.

The other radio my be masking it because it may draw power a bit differently on your particular phone.

It may start to happen again once the radio "settles" in a bit.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] jduque93:
its rooted thats about it.

what i mean is like a software update or something?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Bronk93:
It all depends on "what" you want to do with it. There's kernels and roms for your flashing pleasure. I suggest you first download Odin and the stock image from gtg's ultimate unbrick thread.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jduque93:
see I don't know what flashing the roms or kernels do? as well as a brick or unbricked phone?

im a complete noob sorry.

I came from messin with iPhones to adroids
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ReconRob:
If you "brick" your phone it means it won't work, you can't do anything with it. Sometimes it happens when you mess up your phone by flashing a ROM or kernal wrong.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ReconRob:
Flashing is the process of changing out your stock ROM to an aftermarket ROM created by one of the developers here on xda.

Depending on how bad you "brick" your phone, you can usually undo it.

In most cases, you can get it back to working...just like you took it out of the box by using a developers method. You can read about it in the dev thread. Gtg's ultimate unbrick will work, that's what I use when I screw up.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ReconRob:
I recommend starting with a froyo ROM. There are 3 to choose from for our phone. You can read about them on the dev thread. The developers here have got it down and they are very stable.

After you flash your first ROM, (and mess it up a few times) you can use Gtg's Ultimate Unbrick to fix it.

Then you can start on kernels when your ready.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
The only way to hardbrick a device is to flash a bad bootloader, and this is next to impossible to do on our phones. Only one person has ever hardbricked, and they were volunteering for a dangerous experiment. Our phones have a lot in place to try and prevent hardbricking.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jduque93:
thanks a lot guys.

@reconrob so I should do a rom firts?

and why do I have to unbrick after I flash a rom?

and what's the diff between a rom and a kernel?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
You shouldn't HAVE to unbrick, but sometimes things get hosed up. Honestly the "unbrick" solutions here are closer to a "complete reformat and reinstall".

ROM vs. kernel - hard to describe. The ROM is the complete user-facing software stack - libraries, apps, etc. Changing ROMs from one to another usually requires wiping your user data and restoring from backup. (Updating a ROM from one minor revision to another usually doesn't, although sometimes a ROM dev will force a wipe, such as with Infused v2.0.3 and 2.0.4)

The kernel is the absolute base operating system that handles hardware interfaces. Kernels tend to enable features related to hardware such as an improved sound driver (Voodoo Sound), tweaked battery charging algorithms, improved I/O management (really low level stuff that just improves how "responsive" the device feels), and overclocking/undervolting. (OC is self-explanatory - makes your device faster at the potential expense of stability. UV can save battery, again at the potential risk of making your device crash occasionally.)

Some rarer software features require kernel support - for example many VPN software packages require a feature called tunneling in the kernel. Stock Froyo kernels were missing this, stock Gingerbread kernels for our device seem to all have it so far. Almost all "custom" kernels have it. Same for CIFS (Windows LAN file sharing) support - needs a custom kernel with the drivers added.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ReconRob:
Yes, you should install a ROM first.

Remember, its called "bricking" your phone when you mess up or if something goes wrong. It's a slang word, as in your phone is as worthless as a brick. :) If everything goes right when you install your ROM then there is no "unbricking".

The aftermarket ROM is a customized interface with your phone. Again, there are 3 Froyo ROMs (currently) to choose from for our phone. All ROMs come with a kernel. Kernels are like the brain of your phone. We also have some great kernel developers here for our phone so, you can change out the kernel or the ROM...or both.

Read the instructions on that particular ROM or kernel thread very carefully and you won't have any problems. You got through rooting easy enough so you will do just fine.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jduque93:
@Entropy512 wow this is so hard lol. but thanks anyways! i kinda get it now. i just see how i can do apple so easily even put ndroid on a 3g but i cant do this stuff lol..

@ReconRob ok. and which one do yall suggest the best?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ReconRob:
There isn't one ROM that's really any better than the other. All of our Infuse Devs collaborate, so the different ROMs are flavors. It's a personal choice.

Good luck and have fun!

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4.3:
I have both and to me the viewpad 10s has a slighty. less glare on the screen.

the design is better on the 4.3 and it also looks better. the thing that bothers me is that the viewpad 10s has only 512mb of internal memory and you to use app2sd. and for nobs like me that's a bit trouble some and stupid if you ask me.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] eXtink:
Does somebody know how to undo app2ext?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
If all you want to do is remove the automatic mounting of EXT partitions at boot, all you need to do is remove 05mountsd and 07app2ext from system/etc/init.d and reboot.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] eXtink:
I know how to remove the app2ext script, but I also want my app2ext apps back into the internal memory
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] adamz667:
You need to copy it from ext2 partition to sdcard (all folders), then remove script files, and copy all folders back to internal memory to same folders (eg.: app-private to app-private).

You can use Terminal or adb shell for that. It should works.

Eg.

Open Terminal and type

# cp /sd-ext/* /sdcard/myapps/

(/sd-ext is your mount point for ext partition - type mount to find out which is yours)

From Droid Forums:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...ion-storage-vs-internal-storage-question.html

This question was asked in relation to the Droid 3, and the below answer is awesome, and I get it 100%, But I am wondering: Does this apply to the D2G at all? The 8GB internal storage that it has is massive compared to most phones in the same "class". I bought the phone, assuming, actually, that the 8GB was somewhat useful, but it's only been useful by ensuring I never, ever have to install an app on the sd card.

I have 120 apps, yet, 5.93 of this 8 GB is still available. In other words, NOTHING I ever do will come close to filling it, short of finding a way to put my pics/videos/music there.

It seems the Droid 3 allocates this space logically. But is there a way to make the D2G do it? An app, maybe? Or has it been doing it all along without me even realizing it?
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
You need to be rooted to be able to use that space.
[Droid 2 Global General] seventieslord:
I am rooted. Now what?
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
This requires either adb shell or a terminal.

First, you need to create a new folder for your stuff in /data, and set the permissions for it to 644 sdcard_rw:sdcard_rw.

Second, to be able to access it from your PC (and make the phone scan it for content along with the SD card contents) you will have to bind it to a folder on the SD, using mount's bind option.

I think that the bind mount won't survive reboots, so you'll have to bind it every time you boot your phone (you can always automate it via a script though).
