[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
I'll give you a history so that you'll understand, and not just DO, but you'll know why you are DOING.

The Viewsonic Gtablet is a derivative of tablets all produced by a Chinese company called Malata. Similar tablets are the Advent Vega (Hence VegaN roms) and the Notion Ink Adam. For some strange reason, the Gtablet was originally shipped to customers with a bootloader that we call 1.1. The firmware versions originally all started with 1.1.xxxx. The LAST firmware version update that Viewsonic released to it's users was 1.1.3588. Some people here, and elsewhere call it the "bridge" firmware, since you can flash 1.1 roms on it, and also upgrade your firmware to the newer bootloader from it.

In April, users hounded Viewsonic to release SOMETHING to let us know that they are still paying attention to us. Well, they released an update called 1.2.4349. Notice the 1.2...yea, it's the new bootloader. Many users assumed that it was a "locked" bootloader, since using our existing roms and CWM versions would softbrick our devices.

It was found, though, that we could in fact, use the 1.2 bootloader for different versions of our favorite roms, as well as newer, more improved roms. The thing is, the NI Adam already used the 1.2 bootloader. Next thing you know, Adam developers are working on Honeycomb to run on the adam...with just a few tweaks, we could run it on the Gtablet...without the 1.2 bootloader, this wouldn't have been assumed to be possible easily.

Viewsonic actually PULLED the 1.2 firmware a mere 24 hours after it was released. Luckily, some smarter people than I saved it so that it was still available to download. Even though it was pulled, Viewsonic was starting to package it with new Gtablets that were sold. So, every tablet sold before May, would have 1.1 on it, while those sold after had 1.2 on it. This confused things even more. 4349 does have bugs, though, so we're now pushing Viewsonic to release a FIXED version of the 1.2 firmware.

So, that's the story...we were all on 1.1, and had a fun time with the 1.1 mods...then they threw that 1.2 on us, and people got confused beyond belief. It's to the point, though, that a quick NVFlash can bounce you from one to the other and back again...

Gtablet for Dummies lays it all out for you in simple to read instructions (hence, dummy...not saying you ARE one, but one COULD understand it)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalbenji:
I have an ATT Nexus S with stock radio (I902AUCKE1). I'm running CM-7.1.0-RC1-NS, with build number GRJ22.

99% of my reboots seem to correlate to radio crashes, and I end up with lots of radio dump files. I've read about non-ATT Nexus S owners updating to different versions of radio (KB3 sounds like the latest).

My question is should I be running a different radio? If so, where can I get a code-signed radio package for the ATT Nexus S?

Thanks!

If you are using Gmail 2.3.5, check out the feedback ratings on the market. A LOT of people are complaining about that issue, as well as the fact that the update disabled the functionality of third-party widgets.

If you're not using 2.3.5, for the love of God turn off automatic updating and don't install the newest version...

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsMA:
The subject says it all. I have been wondering for some time now why it is that the official Sprint branded apps (NASCAR, TV, FOOTBALL, ID PACK, etc) do not recognize us as Sprint customers when we are running custom ROMs. Does anyone know?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bierce22:
its all in the framework and i know sprint tv would work on my old mytouch before i got the hero.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsMA:
I don't think it is a framework issue. It is not that they won't install. The apps will install fine. There is an authentication issue. For most when you launch the app you get a message stating you must be a Sprint customer in order to use this app. Another reason I don't think it is a framework issue is that this apps are installed on all Sprint phones with each android phone running a different framework. I could be wrong though.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaeMii3N:
It would be great if I could get Sprint apps to run on my phone.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NYHusker:
I'm running CM7 on my Hero, and can run Sprint Nav, and Nascar as well as Sprint VVM, without issue.

I will say however, that I tried a program that allowed me to change the carrier ID tag on main stern to anything I wanted, and Nascar app stopped working, starting it was only for Sprint Customers!

I installed zune 4.8 rtm, mobile device central etc in my win7 ultimate and tried to connect my hd7(7004), though windows can detect my phone as w7 mobile, zune doesnot detect it, hence i cant use chevron. I installed rspl, and even hspl in my phone, all with out no problem. But still zune cant detect it, i reinstalled the above two progrmes 3 times, with restarting my phone and pc, still no way,. Is there any way i can hack my phone other than using zune? Or how can i fix the error. Pls help me

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dynamicpda:
I live in a decent 4G area. I see the 4G indicator on often when I am out and about.

Today I checked the Sprint usage stats, on my account online, and was surprised by what I saw for the 9 days of the billing cycle:

3G: 180 mb

4G: 32 kb

How can that be if I am supposedly using 4G a good part of the time?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ttabbal:
Just flash in clockwork and it will format your system and data partitions back to ext3. Faster than dealing with nandroid restores.

Useful for reverting from installs using Dragon or Trinity kernels that convert you to ext4.

NOTE: This FORMATS your partitions, you WILL lose all data held on them. Your phone will NOT boot until you install a ROM ZIP file or restore a nandroid backup. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

CREDIT: @paulobrien from Modaco wrote this for the O2x. I just changed the partition names to match our setup. I left his original banner in there as a result. My change amounts to about 4 bytes. :D If you have issues, please don't bother him, post here.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Smallsmx3:
This is great...I always hesitate trying out updated or experimental kernels because of the amount of time it takes to nandroid....the cm7 kernel has been really good as of late so I've been sticking with that

Reminder: NONE of my kernels and ROMs require the use of this utility. All of my kernels and ROMs are ALL NATIVE EXT3 only mounted as ext4.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 2227528:
wow, i never knew that. so if we are using one of your cm7 ext4 kernels and then flash a new nightly/kang we could go back to using the stock cm kernel and wouldn't have to necessarily flash your kernel again?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] faux123:
Yeap... should be no issues.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] billydroid:
Is there a difference between this and just wiping, formating system and data, in cwm?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ttabbal:
cwm is set up to keep whatever format you have at the time you run it, so if you are on ext4, the format command will format to ext4. It makes sense, you wouldn't want to write an ext4 fs onto a partition with vfat on it, for example. Not automatically anyway. And most users wouldn't know what to tell it to use if it were to give you the option. The forum would be full of "What file system do I use?!?!?"... The usual method is to restore a nandroid backup from stock or a stock file system. This is significantly faster.

It is of somewhat limited usefulness as many kernels/roms don't change the filesystem. However, as I switch around a lot with running tests for the cm guys, my own stuff, etc., it's nice to have a fast way to deal with it.

is this utility gonna wipe out all my data (meaning I will have to install all the apps again, setting up my phone again, signing in to google again and stuff) ?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] temasek:
Yes it will wipe.

Upgrading EXT3 to EXT4 will preserve data but downgrading from EXT4 to EXT3 won't.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xsteven77x:
With cm going ext4 this is priceless.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZeroT| Demented:
A nandroid of ext3 is the same thing also I have installed an ext3 rom over ext4 works great

Why do we people want to go back to ext3 when ext4 is much faster and stable than all the other filesystems.

[HTC Sensation] DAMAGE_INC29:
ive posted a soliciting opinion in the galaxy s II forum..of corz most of the answers was inclined to having a galaxy s2..

im torn to choosing between htc sensation and sgs2.

ive read many users opinion and complaint regarding so many issues about htc sensation..one of which is the "death grip" on wifi radio.some are the unresponsive touchscreen and the screen acquiring dust overtime...compared to sgs2 yellowish tint problem and the back side being very hot..

so i want to solicit opinions to the real htc sensation user before buying it..viewing angle is not an issue for me coz i really dont want others on my side to see what im doing with my phone specially when im texting or something..

so if any of u has a hands on with htc sensation and the sgs2..please i need ur help..im using xperia arc as of now and want to buy a phone with dual core cpu ^^,

thanks and more power
[HTC Sensation] n1kon:
Working in a mobile shop I get to play with phones all day. When it come to death grip all smart phones have it sensation and gs2 included. I chose the sensation purely on the build quilty. The galaxy s 2 is plasticy and feels cheap but the screen is amazing. When it come to faulty units HTC has less issues than other manufactures and I see less returns on them too.
[HTC Sensation] lilhugo:
Honestly it's really hard to pick between either.

I honestly went with the Sensation because I like HTC due to their customer service. They were friendly to me and replaced parts on my Touch HD. After heavy usage and heat it went crazy and then HTC fixed it for me even though I bought it internationally and shouldn't have gotten any warranty.

That's not to say Samsung has horrible customer service, it's just after that I very much stayed with HTC.

I could be a rare case though.
[HTC Sensation] jlevy73:
I own both phones and without question IMO, the sgs2 is the best android phone available. I do like the build quality of the Sensation better but I don't care how it feels I only care about how it works.
[HTC Sensation] DAMAGE_INC29:
ok..im aware that using benchmarks, etc, sgs2 is really the best..but when im watching reviews, send UI is somewhat on the plus side for me compared to sgs2 touchwiz..im not sure coz honestly i havent held any one of the 2 phones yet..i hope soon coz im really planning to buy one..

since u own both these device, did u xperince a lag using htc sensation?and on ur recommendation, u would recommend sgs 2 basing on the overall user experience?
[HTC Sensation] n1kon:
Benchmarks mean nothing.
[HTC Sensation] matejm1994:
I bought Sensation, because I love good built phones (I don't want to pay 450€ for mobile phone, which is from cheap plastic...) . And because I prefer Sense to TouchWiz.

But anyway, I have a suggestion for you. Flip a coin and say that head is Sensation, and number is SGS2. And when the coin will be in air, you will know which side you hope to be. And then buy one phone, which you are hoping to fall. And not the one that really falls =)

Hope it helps :P
[HTC Sensation] darryll4sh0:
Sensation vs SGS2

I bought my sensation because:

Stylish (not similar to other devices- ex. apple suing samsung)

Sense UI (best UI, hands down)

Power consumption

Screen (Less power consumption)

Built Quality

P.S.

Death grip can only happen if intentionally done (check youtube)

SGS2 screen technology (AMOLED) "drawbacks include reduced brightness and colors that are often over-saturated. OLED screens also suffer an awkward aging effect, where the red, green and blue sub-pixels will deteriorate and lose efficiency at different rates, which causes brightness and color consistency to worsen over time. While improvements are being made, it's important to understand that this display technology is still relatively immature." ....Engadget

[HTC Sensation] idavid_:
If you can, go to the store and try both. You will see which one you like better

Swyped from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Joshhedge:
I was actually torn between getting these two, at one stage I placed an order for the SG2 - lucky paypal was being slow with giving me my money from the sale of my iPhone - Thus after a day I cancelled the order and re-ordered the Sensation purely for the qHD, aluminium unibody and build quality along with what I thought and hoped would be the faster phone!

Hopefully over the coming months the gap will close between the two phones, remember that at 1.5GHz this phone benchmarks better that the SG2 and HTC under clocked it to 1.2GHz, also in benchmarks the phone is pushing something like 25% more pixels ;)
[HTC Sensation] DAMAGE_INC29:
thanks bro..im just thinking regarding the back cover..the upper lip of the cover is like coversing the upper part of the phone right?when covering it, the upper part of the back cover that is covering the upper part is sealed well?i mean dust will not likely to go inside freely?and also to the side?that is one thing im worried about coz i dont want dust to go inside the phone for example..as what others are saying that there are dust inside the screen specifically...
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
Dust will go inside the phone from the top and from the camera holes. I clean the inside 1's a week, but dust does not go inside the screen. the good thing about the sensation design is that you can replace the cover with a new one if you damaged it and it will be like new as long as you don't damaged the screen.

I think you should go to a store and play with both phones and decide for yourself which one you like best. Both are great phones with plus and minuses. If you like the design and plastic build of the SGS2 then buy it. I would have bought the SGS2 if it was designed like the sensation.
[HTC Sensation] DAMAGE_INC29:
i also like the built quality of htc sentation compare to the sgs2..

when u were playing with both phone..particularly htc sensation, did u notice any lag when opening apps or games or something?how abut in browsing
[HTC Sensation] casrocks:
I have tried very hard to try to recreate this "death grip" and I cannot do anything to lose signal! I wouldnt even put that into your equation right now. As far as the screen, my screen is very responsive an accurate but I do have a bit of dust under it but that is more a minor annoyance. I am a little bias as I am a sensation owner, but Im just saying, I use to be a stock android guy and hated sense, but sense 3.0 is bomb! I would take the sensation over the sgsII almost any day just because of sense 3.0. (Its that good) And then again everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
[HTC Sensation] n1kon:
There is a bit of lag in stock roms but I never use a stock rom I'm all for customs
[HTC Sensation] dazza_84:
I've have owned the sgs2 and currently have the sensation.

The only reason I changed over is cos I missed sense UI, if that isn't a problem for you then I'd say get the galaxy s2.

Galaxy s2 is faster, web browsing is faster, the camera and colours are brill, the speaker is louder and in my opinion better.

I've noticed my sensation hangs on web pages, apps don't open as quick.

Im not sure if I'm correct on saying this but to me it feels that sense 3.0 isnt supposed to run on this device even though my old desire hd handled it flawlessly.

I understand when people say that touchwiz looks very iphonish, and I agree also.

The one thing that bugged me with the galaxy s2 is defo the fact there is no notification light.

I'm gonna finish now and will probably get flamed but its just how I feel.

Like I said I come back to HTC cos I missed sense, but if ur not bothered bout UI then I'd say get galaxy s2.

Hopefully HTC bring out an update that would make my device fly.
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
No Flaming here just manlove;) I totally agree with you. I switched from touch HD to sensation. I would have bought SGS2 if it was designed differently. I think it is a great phone except I just can't get over the design, it is ugly:eek:
[HTC Sensation] The Janitor Mop:
I'm going to speak primarily of the Sensation because I have no experience with the SGS2:

Pros:

Build quality (although I honestly don't get why people think this is such a big deal when a lot of people put covers on their phone)

UI (I need to stress that VISUALLY I like Sense 3.0, you'll see what I mean later)

qHD resolution

Design (basically same category as build quality)

Web browsing (qHD makes it really nice, and I've also read that the SGS2 doesn't automatically rewrap text when you zoom in/out like the Sensation does)

Cons:

Screen tech (I will never buy a LCD phone again; LCD is absolutely worthless in direct sunlight and bright areas and I can't see my phone's screen in said situations; and plus as SAMOLED+ technology matures they'll take care of problems like the yellowish tint)

Speaker (there is no way for me to put this other than to say the Sensation's speaker is absolutely ****ty; my brother's old MyTouch 4G has a WAY louder speaker and it's an older phone)

Processor (this is sort of a time-related thing, because in a technical sense the Sensation's chip actually has some advantages on paper like asynchronous cores; the problem is is that Gingerbread apparently doesn't have adequate dual-core support and I don't believe an asynchronous dual-core phone will do as well as a synchronous dual-core phone until ICS, but even then we'll have to see what does better)

UI (while I also put UI in the Pros section for its looks, I have to say that Sense 3.0 is laggy as **** on the Sensation and is not optimized; I'm saying this while I'm on one of the faster custom ROMs, which still is laggy; I don't like the looks of Touchwiz like many on here, but I would kill for its smoothness)

Camera (not that it's bad, it's quite good, but reviews are unanimous that the SGS2 camera is even better)

Internal memory (1 GB vs. 16 GB; need I say more?)

RAM (768 MB vs. 1 GB; again, need I say more?)

Deathgrip (I know people will say that all phones experience deathgrip issues, but I don't think most have it as bad as the Sensation does)

Battery (this is minor, because the battery life is pretty decent, but most top-line phones are coming out with upwards of 1700 mAh batteries these days)

That sums up my views, I may be missing a few points here and there. The only things I like about my Sensation are the design and build quality, the UI, and the qHD resolution. Otherwise, I honestly think that the Sensation was completely out-spec'd even at the time it came out.
[HTC Sensation] leftheodo:
I have Sensation for about three months now! I came from a HD2 ( a special case ) and i was expecting the most powerful smartphone in the world. At first i was disappointed (before S-off ). The lag that everyone is talking about WAS there! The phone wasn't really laggy but it was not as i expected. The apps were launching really fast but i knew it could get much better. The gs2 was at the time a lot faster. The normal user couldn't tell the difference and every day experience was the same if not better ( i prefer sense ui too ). I'm writing in the past tense because after the S-off and with a custom rom (IC 2.3.5) my Sensation is blazing fast ( almost as i want it to be :p ). Anyway, you should go and try both of them. GS2 is a great phone and if you choose to buy it you won't regret it. It's a matter of personal preference! I prefer HTC's quality, looks, qHD screen, customer service and Sense UI. You may prefer the Super Amoled Plus, more built in memory and RAM. It's your choice ;) .
[HTC Sensation] Yildun28:
I love my Sensation. Bought 5 of them for the family. Haven't had any issues. Especially now that updates are out and bugs are getting fixed (not to mention custom roms), the Sensation is a super sweet phone.
