[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtremealok:
as i am not selling/trading my phone here, and just want some advice, i guess the G1 forum is the right place(instead of market place)

long story short, with G1's going under 100$ on the mp,and it being an old device, i was wondering here(local) if i could sell it...cash offer are hard to come by:(

so, if i exchange it, what's a better option???

nokia n900???

htc tp2???

iphone 3g???

or some vivaz/aino/satio...

straight exchanges(no cash involved)

pros and cons

i like the android feel, and love the G1 for the keyboard:)

any suggestions????

thnx
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldrifta:
my personal suggestion... dont sell it...

there still a lot of development on the g1 believe it or not and you wont get much for it in a trade, so just keep it as a spare.. test things out with it, have fun try developing or just messing with it...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtremealok:
i love the G1...but if i am getting a tp2 or n900 without involving any cash from my end, then???

and i can pick another g1 for under 100$ here..;) how's that???

ps-i spent 200$ getting my g1 last december:p :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldrifta:
dammm, i had a G1 since they came out.. finally bought a spare couple weeks ago for like $40... was in better codition than my other new 1... lol but uhh im not sure which device to trade it for... im not sure which devices you can 'explore' with like the g1... some devices have more restrictions to work around, where the G1 is wayyyy more open to development.. so it's users preference i guess... unless someone else can answer this better for you :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtremealok:
i have a zillion reasons to love the G1...and the fact that i can pick one here(at xda) for under 100$, and actuaaly sell mine for 200$ locally..or trade for n900/tp2...and play with the one i buy again....how's that?? ;)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeenAndroidized:
My advice is to keep it for spare, or for when you have to go to different country (IE: for business, vacation, etc...). G1 come in handy when you need a phone while you are there. All you have to do is buy a SIM chip and put it in. :D

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ShadowReaperGR:
Hello,

my friend has a problem with his phone. He neither installed a custom rom, nor he rooted it. He updated OTA and after a week, while he was talking, the phone shut down.

When he powers it on the screen lights up and nothing else happens. Sometimes the vodafone splash came up, but nothing more.

I don't know if the phone boots into recovery as I don't see anything on the screen.

I tried booting to fastboot mode, and the pc detects it. But I whatever I try to do, (flash,erase etc) I get the error: Remote not allowed...

Any ideas how to fix it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mumilover:
Have you considered hardware problem?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ShadowReaperGR:
Yes I have but first i want to make sure that it isn't any software problem
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdmack:
Running Leedroid HD 3.3.3 R5 A2SD+ port on my Desire. I have come across a major problem in that it freezes/ becomes unresponsive at random points through the day. Seems independent of that is happening on the phone when it occurs. How can I find out what is causing it?

Full wipe before flash. SD card partitioned as required. Root, not S-off.

Help will be very much appreciated.

Rdmack
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nieker:
I have the same problem... I have no idea what's causing it. I'm starting to think that the sense 3.0 add-on might be the problem.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bullseye221184:
Same with me. 1Gb ext 3 partition with gparted. Leedroid v3.3.3 R5 with the sense 3.0 add-on.

random blackouts. Buttons are backlightend but screen wont respond. any idea?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdmack:
going to try to re-flash it again, after another full wipe. Will report back on findings.

I checked the checksum and that's all fine. So far haven't come across any answers =/
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shoarma1998:
Could it have anything to do with wifi/bluetooth?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdmack:
In what way?

Wiped phone, wiped sd card. Reset partitions as primary and in correct order. Will see how it goes
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ste1164:
Aparenty for the sense add on its better to have a SD card which is class 6+
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bullseye221184:
I thought about the "Class x"- classification as well. Will try to flash the leedroid v3.3.3 without sense add-on and report how it goes
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdmack:
After all the wiping and what not my phone still freezes :-( annoyingly it freezes when it's supposed to wake for my morning alarm call. Don't worry I have redundancies in place in case of alarm failure.

Edit: This issue has been noted in the rom thread so might get some headway there too!

I was using battery widgets auto save function, saving at 5 minute intervals, to check battery use and the results stop at the result before the alarm. So could be an awaking issue.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdmack:
Got the issue with starting a data connection as well. Think that's one of the major causes! Phone froze after enabling data connection (not wifi)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bullseye221184:
Ok i think i got it fixed.

-Titanium Backup

-full wipe and dalvik cache wipe

-Leedroid v.3.3.3 R5 flash

-restore with titanium

obviously the sense stuff causes the problem. got a class 4 16 GB sd card and no problems with the 3G / Wifi connection. (5.17.05.08 radio)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itachi1706:
I use the Sense 3 addon but I don't see anything lags/blackouts etc. Been using the rom for about a week now and i like it very much. its way smoother than other sense 2.1 roms i tried.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdmack:
I changed the radio to the latest version (5.17.05.23) and that seems to help. Most of the freezes come when there's no signal, like at work, so popping the phone into aeroplane mode helps there. Don't use Data Conn. as often either unless I know that the signal will be excellent.

I still get the freezes but far less often, thankfully.

Also using the Sense 3 add-on but not sure how that would change things.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bullseye221184:
Just to fullfill my previous post. i´m running leedroid 3.3.3 port 5 now 3 weeks without a blackout. in my case it was just the sense add-on cause thats the only thing i changed / left out when i re-flashed. Hope it helps...but ppl say that they´re running the sense add on without a problem. (Maybe u´´ll need to wipe dalvik or sth after ur first boot and then flash the add on like its said here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1226017&highlight=LeeDrOiD (6.2)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrimStranger:
I have an odd problem and I just wanted to see if anyone with the same setup has encountered it.

I bought a pair of Apple in-ear headphone w/ mic (I love white headphones and it has to have a mic and look stylish. it's the only that fits the bill afaik).

Strangely, the left earbud failed shortly after by not producing any sound. It's dead. I exchanged for another pair and 3 days later same thing happened. I exchanged again and within less than a week the left earbud failed again.

I'm baffled as there is no physical damage (it's not like I use it as a sling to play real life angry birds) and only the left fails.

My hunch is that the circuitry of S2 is somehow incompatible and killing the Apple in-ear headphone but I'm a noob to electrics so I'm I might be slinging pure bs.

I'm not looking for someone to miraculously solve my problem (it's just yet another exchange away) but I wanted to see if anyone is on the same (sinking) boat.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Are you buying from Apple ??

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinderbox (UK):
Do you mean fakes?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrimStranger:
I'm in Singapore now and there are authorized Apple resellers instead of official Apple retail.

So I'd say yes they are authentic Apple goods if that's what you're indicating.

BTW, the regular earphone that came with the iPhone works perfectly fine and does not get slaughtered by the GS2.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
That means that it is clearly not the phone causing the problem, and the problem has been sub-standard headphones all along. I'd recommend returning them for a refund and shopping elsewhere.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
iPhone 3.5mm connector is different from regular 3.5mm connectors.

Therefore if you use it on iphones or ipods they work fine, when you use it on a nokia or samsung or some other brand phone, not so good an idea.

Regular stereo jack has 3 segments or 2 separators. Stereo + Mic has 4 segments or 3 separators. The 4th segment also doubles up as the "remote" for volume up and down, on hook, off hook. You just have to trust Apple to make sure they are different.

Perhaps you should get a brand/model earphone/headphone that actually supports general equipments instead of iphone specific ones.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mnasraween:
dear

i 've been search the forum for the past 2 weeks, trying to sim unlock my aria, it is locked to at&t, it is rooted.

please is there a way to unlock it,

thanx
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
You must either

(1) call AT&T and request the unlock code for your phone. This is free but they usually only do it when you have had the phone for a certain amount of time, and even then sometimes they will still refuse.

or

(2) pay a small amount on eBay or another site that sells unlock codes for the HTC Aria. This usually is quick and painless, but not free.

Being rooted doesn't help you with the SIM lock unfortunately.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mnasraween:
thank you for your help, unfortunately i didn't use at&t, i'll go with option 2
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saboxerman:
Can't unlock for free?

Why is it that there is an app I used to get the unlock code for FREE on a Samsung Captivate, but, there isn't something like that for the Aria, let alone any other phone? I'd like to unlock my Aria and sell it on ebay because I have no further use for it now that I am with Sprint.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
That's actually a mistake made by Samsung with the Captivate. They unintentionally placed the unlock code for each phone in the phone memory where anyone can access it if they know to look for it. HTC did not make the same mistake with the Aria, so no easy-to-obtain unlock codes for it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sliqueliques:
hey guys. How to install simplicity ROM? Im currently on stock JVP with Galaxian Kernal. Never done flashing Custom ROM before. Can anyone provide steps to install it?.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonVito2020:
First flash semaphore 1.5 via odin.

Copy the Simplicity 0.32 - Wipe CWM3 to ur sd card. not into any folders!!!

Go to recovery mode (HOME+VOL UP+POWER) do a factory reset - IT WILL ERASE ALL THE DATA IN UR PHONE SO PLS DO BACK THEM UP.

After rebooting again go to CWM recovery and install the "rom" .zip file and u are done. Then u can upgrade to 3.3 via the same way.

Its all there in the rom's thread itself. Check it out

" If you are on Gingerbread (2.3). Install a kernel with ClockWordMod (most recent ones do so. Boot into recovery (CWM) and flash the latest wipe version of Simplicity.

If you are on a previous version of Simplicity. Flash the new update zip or the new full no wipe zip in recovery (CWM)."

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jfcooley:
I found that if the screen stays blank or the update doesn't install, you can boot to recovery and choose reboot system now. Should (at least has for me) just reboot normally. You will get a notification that the update failed.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] SeanHacker:
is this patch newer than the latest KME update or is this old news. I ve already put out a rom based on this update and released the stock ota and everything runs fine
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] streetsmart999:
which rom or u on? Or ur on Stock with CWM/Rooted?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] satur9ine:
I believe that if you are on an odexed rom the update will work just fine and you will keep root. If you are in a deodexed rom the update crashes and you need to nandroid back.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tbcpn:
A bit OT for Development, but as long is the issue was raised here, how does one disable OTA on the Tab 10.1? I found the apk files to neuter on my rooted Thunderbolt and Xoom, but cannot determine how to prevent any future OTA updates on my rooted 32gb LTE Tab. Maybe something different on the LTE version?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] zapote21:
As mentioned above, there is already a ROM out that is rooted and safe to flash...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bert269:
Just to add on to the OP comment....

I installed the TW rom and enabled my samsung account, login and got the OTA update. Installed it over the rooted ROM and CWM. After reboot, it locked my unlocked bootloaders - yes, the unlocked padlock symbol does not appear anymore during the boot process.

But I can still flash roms, etc. Have not tried to reflash CWM yet

Just a FYI
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Cheeseter:
How do you disable OTA?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] albert emmer:
about tablet > software update > uncheck auto update
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] SeanHacker:
locked or unlocked doesnt really make a difference. i have 2 tabs one locked and one unlocked and i can do the same things to both of them. dont worry about it. thanks for the warning though. you guys can get the update. its in my sig
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tbcpn:
Thanks but no such box to uncheck on my (rooted stock) LTE tab. Wish there was.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xdarkfirex:
Just delete fotaclient.apk
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tbcpn:
No such .apk on the LTE Tab, but thanks. Did a system wide search thru Root Explorer for "ota" and only found the executable fota.rc file that was anything close.

I'm just trying to avoid the TW "update" if/when it is pushed to the LTE model.

Hey there,

These are the leaked specs of galaxy Q..the next smart phone in the galaxy series!

If you think this is posted into the wrong place..please be free to more it?

Few of the leaked specifications of Samsung Galaxy Q are:

Dimensions: 4.8 x 2.72 x 0.37

Weight: 3.8 ounces

Display: 3 inch super AMOLED display with 720 x 480 resolution

Camera: 8 MP with LED flash

1.3 MP front facing

Processor: 1GHz Hummingbird

QWERTY keyboard with Touchpad

Android 2.2

16 GB storage

2.5G (GSM/GPRS/EDGE) 850 / 900 / 2100 Mhz

3G (HSDPA 7.2 Mbps, HSUPA 5.76 Mbps) 900 /1900 / 2100 Mhz

1500 mAh battery with up to 7.5 hours of run time

As far as features are concerned, I guess they are good. Features like Android 2.2, 1GHz Hummingbrid processor, 16 GB storage and few more are same as Samsung Galaxy S but Samusng Galaxy Q has improved in Camera quality but degraded in display ( 3 inch ). Yet nothing more is revealed. Let’s wait for more features, images, price and launch date.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] haloimplant:
3" super amoled 720x480 is going to pretty sharp. Looks thin too where many 3" phones tend to be thick (like the galaxy 'family' models, they are 12mm where this is closer to 9 like the gs2).

I wonder if this is why we're seeing crazy deals on the samsung galaxy 'family' series (gio, ace, mini, fit, the gio was $70 here mtm at zellers). They are powered by 600-800 MHz qualcomm, have 320x240 tft screens and only 2GB internal memory. This 'galaxy q' with 720x480 samoled, 1 ghz hummingbird and 16GB (basically an sgs hit with a shrink ray) is a huge upgrade in this form factor no wonder they want to clear out old stock.

Nah screw that, I'm sick of tinier font resolution on my phone. Almost already about to throw my Atrix and it's whack *ss Qhd out the window!

Android needs a way to make icons/text bigger on ICS at the earliest before we all get stuck with phones that we have to read our text messages that look like this.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okloub:
Hello there ,

Well, first I would like to thank the admins for this lovely forum it is really nice.

I am a new comer to the Android stuff since i was an advanced iPhone user (Jailbreaker) for over 2 years now, but i decided to move to the Android.

So i bought a new HTC Desure HD unbranded, the thing i updated it directly to 2.3.3 with software version 1.42.

I had tried to root it, read a lot of forums, watching vedioes ..etc so i managed to downgrade to 2.2 with 1.32 and root it, But it seems that my root was not permanent. because when i run the bootloader and install 2.2 again, after installation it tells that i am not a root when i open ROM Manager.

So and because i don't have much time at the moment to read more (Travailing soon), i decided to retore it to the factory defaults so i went to shipped ROM and download a stock one.

What happened is that the version i installed doesn't support Arabic (even it was when i bought it), so i discovered that i downloaded the wrong .exe, I downloaded the one with ARA in the description which i think it is the correct one , do it again but it gives me error with the connection.

The thing is I need your support to restore it to factory defaults along with the SD Memory so it doesn't show that it was rooted (or tried) because i noticed that some of the files and folders are there , just like 2.2 ROM , ROM Manager , su-xx-somthing.

Finlay, I would like to apologize for the long post but your support is really appreciated.

You cant UNROOT with SuperOneClick if you in 2.3.3 or 2.3.4. But if you FLASH, its UNROOTING it automatically. No need separately to UNROOT. But if you want to UNROOT after ROOTING, all is in that thread.

You need to contact Tmobile if you have an account with them. Request a SIM unlock. As long as you haven't done one on your line in the last 90 days they'll put in the request. Within 72 hours they'll email you the unlock code and instructions.
