[HTC EVO 3D] BlaydeX15:
GSM and CDMA are cell signal types. Its like the difference between Diesel and regular Unleaded gasoline. They both power cars, and they're really close to the same thing, but if you use the wrong one, you've f'd over your car. Same thing with the phone. If you flash a CDMA rom on your GSM phone, you've pretty much borked it.

Hardware differences between the 2 phones (The ability to capture different cell signals, Lack of a sim card in CDMA, etc) require different software to run it. Porting should happen pretty quickly for the big roms though, so I wouldn't worry about it.
[HTC EVO 3D] supaphreek:
Ah thanks alot :) I wasnt sure that GSM was the newer model because I basically bought this phone without really thinking. I called up Rogers *****ing about my captivates GPS and they offered me this and I took it. I cant wait for the devs to get the evo GSM versions. With them.. I think the battery life will go to an entirely new level.
[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
I cannot speak for the gsm, but the CDMA gets darn good battery life, even running stock.

how you do this? my understanding you cant get amon ra for evo 3d so thats not an option for me
[HTC EVO 3D] smarcin:
I was going to tell you to use TWRP, but I see it doesn't format, yet. So, here's what I have done in the past. I use gparted in LINUX. Now, my laptop and netbook are dual boot, Win/LINUX. If you don't want to install LINUX, go download a live LINUX distro and burn it to CD or DVD, whichever it takes. I've used Ubuntu for this and it's what I have on my laptop and netbook. Then, after you burn it as an iso, put it in your computer and reboot into it. gparted is found under the Administrative on the taskbar. I generally will put my microsd into a reader and plug it into my computer. Sometimes your reader will show up on the desktop, but if not, just go to Places on the on the taskbar, and click My Computer. If you need more help, give me a shout.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
not sure what utilities windows has for ext4 partition formatting. perhaps a google search might turn up something useful? i know in ubuntu, as stated above, gparted works well. another option to the ubuntu live cd and the dual booting ubuntu is to run a VM of ubuntu. just to add another option!

long manual process:

grab the arm compiled ext4 formatting binary used in amonra recovery off his github and manually run the commands. the commands should be found in his github source .. can prob grep for the format menu (usually in recovery.c or recovery_ui.c for a starting point) and follow the menu logic out to the exact command being sent to the ext4 formatting binary along with the arguments.

hope that might help those wanting to manually format ext4 partitions on their sdcard!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] agentfazexx:
For this LCD density issue with the new market, if you find that your apps are disappearing, switch back to 240 and reboot. All your apps should be there. Do your updates, and switch back to whatever density you were at. This has something to do with the Market thinking you're on a tablet rather than a phone, it's just a compatibility thing.

Maybe somebody will come up with a fix...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
Actually, I thought that what my problem was. So I switched from Hyper Droid (167) to Typhoon (240) yet I can not see the apps. So I changed the density to "167" on Typhoon and uninstalled the new market .. All the apps are showing fine. Im not sure if it's an LCD Density issue.

Furthermore, on the new market I found some new apps, I have never been able to install on the older market. But as soon as I switched back, those apps disappeared and nothing showed them back.

My Dinc2 is a work phone so I won't be flashing any ROM's, but I wanted peoples opinions as to whether it is still a good idea to root or not?

If I'm not going to flash ROM's, what other benefits might I gain?

What are the downsides (not including warranty issues, since my work will get me a new phone no matter what if this one dies, rooted or not)?

TIA
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Fusion.Coil:
AFAIK, some apps require S-OFF - and of course this allows you to freeze certain bloatware. Other than that, I can't see why you'd root if you are not going to try out different ROMs.

But freezing bloat is not a bad idea if you find the VZN stuff annoying.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PacerguyDon:
Freezing bloat is a big plus for sure... Also being able to "unfreeze" the clock and other Htc and Google apps that seem to like to magically disappear is a nice benefit of having root as well :cool:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] beenz:
Being able to make a nandroid backup and using Titanium Backup are also excellent benefits.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Zelmo88:
Being able to freeze or uninstall some of the bloatware will also help your battery life. Getting great battery life on my rooted Dinc2 now!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] klm22:
well if you root and do a nandroid backup, why couldn't you flash new ROMs?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rtdakota39:
Rooting for me is always the first step to a new phone, though I'm constantly flashing ROMs.

With the bloat that came on the Inc2 being able to freeze / remove some of the pre-installed apk's is a huge benefit.

In all honesty, if you are questioning rooting or not you probably are happy with your current experience. If that's the case rooting probably isn't needed.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] poncho524:
my main purpose in rooting is to allow for tethering. I dont bother with ROMs all that often.

So root if you want to tether (or at least have it as a backup).
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] twothtek:
can I ask what you removed and how? Can I just delete a root file or do I need a special uninstaller? I'm rooted, S-off...thx
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ph1nn:
Seems worth it to root for wi-fi tethering and freezing Verizon crapware even without getting into custom ROMs (that may or may not actually improve the phone).
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
I don't know what it is with the stock ROM but things just stop working. Ever since I've installed a new ROM its been good. I'd eveb just install the debloated ROM. Its better than stock.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prenedo:
Not experienced at all, but I agree that the ROM's available for this phone work well. The hardware reacts well to sense 3.0 and AOSP ROM's. That said, I had fascinate; it seemed the more I flashed, the worse the phone got (I believe it was a partitioning issue).

OP, sure can't hurt to root. Just make sure you know how to stock out, but wireless tether and freezing bloatware + small other mods make it worth it...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] oxlong27:
I wouldn't possess an unrooted phone. i've had six different Androids all rooted the very day I got em. and now that revolutionary is around rooting is very painless. just my two cents
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PharmCAT:
Debloating is a neat thing to do if you are going to stay with stock, just make sure to backup your rom so if you happen to remove something important or anything you will always be able to go back easily.

Also, some of the root-only applications can be quite handy, like AdFree...It makes viewing "certain" websites that love to use a ton of javascript for their ads, a lot easier to browse on the tiny smartphone screens.

...and that is kind of everything besides flashing to other roms.

1.) Debloat

2.) Adfree
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sixteen2nd:
Thanks for all the advice!

I ended up rooting, and the funny thing is the final decision was because I wanted to install SkyRaider Zeus ROM ;-)

The rooting process was very easy which also made the decision easier.

What I liked about SkyRaider Zeus was that it was the original kernel but added some Sense 3.0 elements. So far I love it!

Status: ONLINE and Updated 12/Jul/12

By request, I've added a sgs2 section for this tool I put together for the SGS.

Basically it's a web based tool that will generate a CWM compatible update.zip to

remove

pre-installed apps (bloat).

I just recently added a mobile version, that should work from your phones as well.

Android Chlorine

---

SGS Chlorine

SGS2 Chlorine

SGS3 Chlorine

---

SGS Chlorine (mobile)

SGS2 Chlorine (mobile)

SGS3 Chlorine (mobile)

What this does:

This is a little bit of PHP that will generate a customised CWM3 compatible update.zip which will remove specific apks (and associated .odexes).

Usage:

* Choose which APKs you want the update.zip to remove and hit the Generate button.

- You can also select a preset to save some clicking.

* Copy the generated .zip file to your phone.

* Apply it with CWM.

Thanks:

The list of APKs was grabbed from the public google docs spreadsheet.

The SGS2 APK list was grabbed from this public google docs spreadsheet

The SGS3 APK list was grabbed from this public google docs spreadsheet. XDA thread

Notes:

* Requires busybox for mounting /system

* The APK list shouldn't let you remove anything 'vital' to booting the phone (but for SGS2 it may).

* I've tested it myself pretty extensively and used it for the last couple of stock roms released. However, there may be bugs. Let me know and I'll attempt to get them fixed!

* If you have any particular ideas for good presets, also let me know and I'll see to adding them.

* You can remove TouchWiz (TouchWiz30Launcher.apk) with this. However, if you do that without having another home 'app' installed, bad things may (will) happen.

* I also don't actually have a SGS2, so if there are any apps that should NOT be removed in the list, let me know and I'll pull them from the database. The apps in the list are selected from the 'safe to remove' list from the google spreadsheet above.

I get a very strange issue. At time this works ok, and at other times, for the same zip file i get a CWM Status 0 error when trying to flash it.

edit: fiddled around with the updater-script. Found that mounting /system is better done

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "-t", "auto", "/dev/block/stl9", "/system");

Now works fine. You can have a look at my attached updater-script. I had to add a .txt extension so it can uploaded as an attachment. Remove it and have a look at it in notepad++

Thanks for prodiving this :)

I have a few things within the first day of owning my Atrix 4G I really need and dont know if I can get so I appreciate the help in advance.

In the call list etc on my iphone it showed where the call was coming from ie city/state, can my droid do this?

Within my email client on my iphone I had it syncing my entire outlook folders and not just 2 or 3 days which I desperately need not just want, can it do this?

Also my iphone was jailbroken and I had tethering apps, can my Atrix do this without rooting or unlocking for free?

Yes.

Your android phone can do anything you want it to, that's the beauty of it :) Whether it's through your own development or others, you can get anything you'd like. Enjoy being free from apple.
[General Questions and Answers] SayWhat10:
well for Android "rooted" is pretty much the same as jailbroken. So you jailbroke your iphone but dont want to root the Android? You'll need to be rooted to get the tethering for free(unless some new hacks came out that i dont know of that dont require root)

otherwise, dont believe anything Apple or its fan club tells you, you can do pretty much anything with Android that you can do with iOS,plus flash
[General Questions and Answers] mistermentality:
You don't seem to be getting answers to your questions so I've done some googling to try and answer them.

You can get various free apps that show location of caller but most popular in usa seems to be "white pages caller id free".

There are various email apps that sync but only one I can name is k9 mail.

If you mean tethering as in letting other devices such as a pc use your data allowance a lot of android phones have this feature in the settings menu. Go to the wireless networks part of your phones settings to check. Mine (not an Atrix) has option for usb tethering as well as to let my phone act as a mobile wifi hotspot so other devices could use my data allowance via wifi. There are also tethering apps on the android market. You can search the market for the word tether to see suitable apps.

You can tether without rooting if your phone has it as part of the settings but if not you might have to root. If you do root use a program for pc called superoneclick as its literally just a case of connect phone via usb and hit root button on pc software but check it supports your phone though pretty sure it does.

[HTC EVO 3D] Selebrity:
My 3d no longer downloads apps, the volume button even though it is not held down is constantly being held down somehow even though I took the case off. The battery smells like its frying and my phone says safe mode in the left hand corner. When i go into bootloader I can't select anything sometimes because it goes through alll of the options without me pressing anything. I updated my radios and did a superwipe and flashed synergies rom. Any idea of what i could do? My phone isn't bricked which means this is fixable right? If you need any more info let me know.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
*most* of these issues ive never seen posted on here ... i would suggest flashing it back to stock and seeing if any of these issues persist. if you have battery frying smell, volume constantly down, etc issues while on a stock rom, these are more than likely hardware related.

once you're on a stock rom and are still having these issues, it should be fairly easy to bring it back to where you purchased it or a sprint store and show them the issue. they shouldn't have any issue replacing it as it sounds like faulty hardware.

good luck and keep us updated!
[HTC EVO 3D] Selebrity:
should i unroot it?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
before you bring it back to sprint, many people would consider unrooting it to be in your personal best interest.

if the device was damaged from something caused by having root access, it can be considered unethical to return it to sprint unrooted.

i would flash a stock rom back and see if these issues persist. i would be most interested in determing the root cause of the issues.
