I understand that.

About my issue: do you have any opinion or thought?
[Galaxy S II General] fred_up:
I think he showed his opinion and thoughts - don't duplicate. You may not get an answer straight away.

Sometimes you will see a lot of views but no replies - folks have read the problem but don't know a solution.

Sometimes folks post a question then post under an hour later asking if anyone has a solution. This is not a dedicated paid-for help desk. Helping others is done because we have been helped before and that by reading a load of posts we will have picked up solutions to similar questions.

As for duplicate threads, there is a good reason for not allowing them - for a start, you have to look at 2 places for answers. The place that the extra thread takes will knock another person's question into the next page - which is not fair to them.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borris!:
Hi guys,

If i turn on my Desire, it stays awake for about 10 mins. Then it seems to be off and i have to pull Battery to get it back working for 10 mins.

The Camera doesen´t work too.

And i have red blur on my Display if the Background is really dark or black.

I have no Battery-LED anymore, i can´t charge the Phone, the HTC Sensation batterycable doesen´t work on my Desire??? I really don´t know if its charging or not :-/

The Phone is rooted and runs MIUI-AU.

4 Weeks ago i didn´t touch the Phone about 8 Days, then ALL worked again for about 5 Days, then the Problems came back.

Not it lies arround and i don´t know what to do.

Maybe someone of you knows what to do or has any idea?

Hi Master,

I been reading how to root Tab10.1 in the forum and tried using Odin to root my tab. Unfortunately I failed to root my Tab for many times, Odin just don work. I guess it is bcos of the version issue.... think so bcos the files that I downloaded is for P7510......

Seriously, the whole rooting proccess on 7500 takes about 30 seconds. You need to do exactly what's outlined in this thread.

It doesn't wipe any data, it simply installs root. If you need CWM you need to do the "For CWM" steps.

Root on 7500

Hi! I want to be sure of something before doing it...

I want to become root on my 7500 I can't afford to lose any thing on it (apps, data, settings...) because it's not my tab.

So by downloading the RETAIL 3G [GTP7500] root.zip, and going into recovery mode to install the zip, will I lose something or not? Someone said in this post that no data is wiped, but in there:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1171089

They say that install a rom in going to wipe all the apps... and I feel like it's what we do here since we are in the recovery mode.

Anyway, thanks for any precisions.

Installing a custom recovery and installing Superuser does not cause you to lose data. You'll end up with a rooted, but still stock, tablet. All of your data will still be there unless you do something else, like installing a custom ROM.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackm0d:
A couple questions before I splurge, teh Nook's been looking really tempting at it's current price point. I'm talking about once it's rooted and presumably running something stable (CM7 most probably).

a) How's the browser? Is Flash reliable, and overall is it good enough to check some e-mails and open five or six tabs of desktop versions of sites?

b) Battery life? Any stats and comparisons?

c) How's video playback? Does RockPlayer or such work and does it play XviD/H.264 files at their own framerate? HD isn't required, but would be nice.

d) Any drawbacks I should know about?

e) Is having no soft/hard keys for Android functions a detriment to the usability?

Thanks for any help and suggestions guys. Looking to buy me one of these if feedback's good. :)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onclebob:
here are some answer:

a) browser will be the same that your nexus one. But i use Opera mobile wich is smooth, can open lot of tabs (yesterday i had 8), flash work.

b) battery life: it get better, just cut wifi when you know it will iddle (when you sleep or go to work). I don't shut if off and it stand about 3 or 4 day (using it for web, mail). Watching an 20 minutes show drop around 8-10% battery. (using mx player soft decode, hw decode don't work :( )

c) mx player is great (better ui than mobo, i just switch!) don't use hd file, last time i tried it doesnt work..

d) no stable honeycomb, so no app using fragment ui (gmail for honeycomb)

e) you can try tablet tweak on your cyanogen's nexus one. bottom status bar + button in status bar work like HC!

pro: i like the rugger back the nook, no shiny plastic with lot of fingerprint!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ponyboy82:
onclebob pretty much answered everything. I'm a fan of the Dolphin HD browser which also handles flash, multiple tabs, etc. There was a deep sleep issue a while back but it's been fixed. I can routinely get a week or more out of a full charge with minimal use. Of course, YMMV. With tablet tweaks, there's really not a problem with missing the dedicated hardware keys. It uses the honeycomb-style soft keys. The nook 'n' key can be used as home, etc. I honestly can't think of any unsuspected drawbacks -- performance is great (at least with overclocking which is built-in to the nightlies) -- speaking of which, if/when you get one, the CM7 nightlies are the way to go -- very stable on the NC. Bluetooth and usb host mode are available. I will say the speakers do not get very loud, so that could be a factor. The other things are "known"... ie. 7" screen (although a very good one), no 3g/4g, etc.

Plus, for what it's worth, the community here is pretty awesome, which hopefully says a lot.

[Optimus V Android Development] freddysam:
Do not ask me or anyone else on these forums about how to change your ESN! It is highly illegal! Don't do it! I will not discuss that at all in this thread.

If you have activated your Optimus V on Verizon's network, and you have any of the Optimus V Froyo roms installed, the following will show you how to mod the rom to run on Verizon smoothly. Otherwise, you won't be able to send and receive sms/mms messages, and the phone will constantly complain that it is roaming. The scope of this thread is how to mod the rom once you have already activated your phone.

Always do a backup before doing anything on this page. You will need to use root explorer or adb to install these files onto the system partition. Or you can build/mod your own rom and install it.

Using adb, you would first mount system as write-able:

adb remount

Then you would push the files to the phones with the push command:

adb push file.ext /path/file.ext

Step 1: download this file pack

Step 2: Extract the files into the same folder as adb or onto your sdcard if you are using root explorer.

Step 3:

Place apns-conf.xml inside /system/etc/

Place Phone.apk inside /system/app/

Place telephony.db inside /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/

Step 4: I've included a modded framework-res.apk from the reborn rom. If you use a different rom or if the included one does not work for you, extract the original framework-res.apk from your rom located in /system/framework/. Using winrar or 7zip, add the included eri.xml to /res/xml/. Replace the original framework-res.apk on your rom.

Step 5: Using QPST, flash the included PRL file, 52299.prl

I've been using this setup for a week now without problems. I thought I would share. I tried using the LG Vortex rom on the Optimus V, but the hardware was too different. This method should also work on the Optimus S, M, and C, but I have not confirmed.

I really need to find a way to repair my esn. it reads all zeros .. please help
[Optimus V Android Development] msnuser111:
if it truely is all zeros,then it would not be illegal to write the phone's own esn/meid back in,but it MUST be the one on the sticker of the phone. the way to do that would be to flash a rom that lets the phone show up in diag mode. I know aospCMOD does,I don't think IHO does though. experiment and you should end up with the phone showing up as a modem. then install qxdm,if you google for it its easy to find. you need qpst also,they are both on the same page if you google for them together. once you have all that,launch qxdm,go through the menus and find communication,pick the lge diag port,then in the command box,type "spc ______"<enter>where the ______ is your SPC/MSL. you can get these using cdma workshop 2.7 which is also illegal to link here,but is easy to find,just pick the diag port,click connect,then go to the security tab and pick lg method and hit read. now back in qxdm,type "RequestNVItemWrite meid 0x_______________"<enter> where the ____ is your meid from the phone's sticker. DO NOT USE THE MEID FROM ANY OTHER PHONE OR THIS IS ILLEGAL.once that is done,which should be instant,then type "mode reset"<enter> the phone should now reboot.

Message to mods: Please do not remove this post as it does not show anyone how to change an esn/meid,it only allows them to write one in if the phone does not already have one. If the phone does already have one,this method will not work to change it,it will stay at its original.

[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
Thanks to freddysam, I found that this was possible and I now have another Optimus V but it is on the Verizon network via Page Plus Cellular. However, instead of using the package freddysam posted here, I have built an up-to-date ROM from the IHO/CM repo hybridized for OV on the Verizon network. It is working fine for me without any issues. Instead of going through steps 1-4, you can just flash the following ROM (updated 02/22/2012)

You can check the MiRaGe build at IHO Wiki. This is the same build with VZW mods. If you also want the theme for MiRaGe ROM for VZW, it is here. Don't use the theme on the Wiki.

You still need step 5 to flash the PRL using QPST. But after that, you can update to the latest PRL by dialing to *228 and choosing option 2.

Thanks especially to Blarf and BobZhome for creating the IHO repo and VM670, VS660 ROMs.

I am attempting to get an Optimus V on Page Plus but am having trouble with Step 4.

I keep getting a boot loop or frozen flash screen after I repack and load framework-res.apk

Here is where I am at:

1)Rooted stock ROM using Gingerbreak

2)Flashed Xionia Recovery

3)Made backup of stock ROM

4)Flashed the Mirage ROM posted above after clearing caches and formatting the appropriate partitions

5)Get stuck at splash screen during boot. Sometimes it goes into a loop if I wait long enough

6)Tried using Xionia to fix boot loop, does not work

7)Tried installing the Mirage ROM in this thread using IHO_Recovery (BobZHome update for new Optimus V), still loops.

Alternatives I have tried:

1)Flashed IHO_Recovery

2)Installed BobZHome CM7 ROM. It works fine.

3)Replaced files in BobZHome CM7 ROM with the files in this thread. Everything went fine until step 4, then I would freeze at splash screen on boot.

4)Attempted to unpack/replace eri.xml/repack framework-res.apk from BobZHome CM7 ROM. Again freezes/loops at splash screen.

Any suggestions?
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
Try wiping the partitions several times more and flashing the MiRaGe ROM over again. I had the same trouble with a new OV and it worked after trying three-four times. I have an OV with new screen and used BobZhome's recovery, see under the heading "Alternatives" in the IHO Wiki.

Thanks so much for your help guys. I have everything working now including mms and data without roaming.

The tip about build.prop seemed to be the last piece of the puzzle.

I changed the settings above, but still had indications of roaming; I ended up using the entire build.prop from the MiRaGe VZW ROM and it works fine now.

I also noticed that my data usage was dominated by "dialer and dialer storage" before I fixed this roaming issue. Dialer still uses an uncomfortably large amount of data, but it isn't the 20Mb/day that it used yesterday, more like 1Mb/day now. The dialer data usage issue doesn't seem to be fully understood from what I could find; maybe my experience above is a clue.

So I am going to try and switch my optimus v details over to a samsung epic 4g, which will leave my optimus v useless. I was wondering if I could use an old verizon lg flip phone as a donor to the optimus v just for talk and text no data (i am aware mms wont work..)

My youngest brother is on my parents verizon plan and wants a smartphone but they wont pay for the data. I was thinking I could give my phone to him and make the optimus v appear as a dumbphone on the verizon network with just talk and text w/ wifi for internet. I am not asking help on HOW to do it, just do you guys think it would work?
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
I use one OV on Verizon through Page Plus Cellular prepaid plan. Everything works (data, mms ...). I just disable data since it eats all of the money quickly. I went to Canada two weeks ago, it was also roaming there and I could call back US.
[Optimus V Android Development] brooksyx:
Good to know that it can work without data. But what I am wondering is if can i switch it with the esn and meid of my old dumbphone and not put in any of the data password/settings. All I want is talk and text on it so my brother won't get charged data and verizon would think he was using the dumbphone not a smartphone. He is part of my parents family plan.
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
If you turn off the data you won't be charged. There is no need to change esn and meid. And, changing them will not stop the data use. When I was activating with PPC on the Verizon network, Verizon didn't even care if this was a smart phone or not. Data connection is always there if you can use it but the cost is very high without a data plan.

I have also updated the hybrid ROM with 01122012-MiRaGe. You can download from my earlier post.
[Optimus V Android Development] brooksyx:
hmm doesnt really seem worth it then. Ill just probably pull the battery out and keep it as a back up. Optimus V's arnt worth much and especially one without an esn. Guess I could just zero out the ESN + other info and use it as a dedicated MP3 player in my truck.
