Before I say anything, I already know about WhatsApp and use it on my phone, but I only know 2 people out of 10 friends who actually use the app. So, I am not looking for WhatsApp to be my solution since I still need to send regular SMS messages to people.

I am wondering if it is possible to have text messages pushed from my phone to my tablet and to be able to send text messages from my tablet and have them pushed to my phone to be sent.

Received TXT MSG -> Phone (Received via phone carrier service) -> Acer Iconia A500 (Read)

Acer Iconia A500 (Write new TXT MSG) -> Phone -> Send via Phone Carrier Service

It isnt a necessity, but I thought it would be convenient at times.

Technical Information:

Tablet: Acer Iconia A500 (Android 3.1; Rooted)

Phone: SonyEricsson Xperia X10 (Android 2.3.3; Rooted)

Tablet can be tethered to phone via bluetooth

Check out Tablet Talk. Comes from an xda dev and is now in the market
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
Tabtex and SMS sync
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
Tabtex and SMS sync both apps work well.

And it is awesome...

Giggles you got me there.I had all the correct letters.

Give the blonde chic a break im lucky to turn it on
[Acer Iconia A500] JdgM3NT4L:
Lol. Np, I imagine that we can let it slide... ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] gramps50:
I just installed Tablet Talk on the A500 and my Defy. Workd well using either Bluetooth or wifi. It will also tell you whos calling when you get a call. It's on the Market and curently on Sale for $1.49 the developer is here on xda also.
[Acer Iconia A500] blcklab:
How did you connect via bt? Doesn't the iconia only recognize stereo headphones?
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
Thee are many Bluetooth profiles in honeycomb as well as keyboard and mice
[HTC EVO 3D] ninten5:
Well, I think I must be the first one to do this, but I dropped it in the toilet and quickly grabbed it afterwards. I left it in rice for 24+ hrs. The phone works fine, any long term damage that might have occured? The water sticker on the battery is full red, any other sticker I can check to see if it was full water damage?:(

I had dreams of rooting and overclocking but I think I won't take my chances on that.:(
[HTC EVO 3D] dashrink:
Dood if it works, then it works :-)

I had a water damaged phone once, but it kept on going :-)

Your warranty is void tho...
[HTC EVO 3D] dougstoner:
I had an old htc phone that I dropped in water, and did the same thing. Instantly put it in rice, and it worked fine. Only thing, it had a keyboard, and one button took more force to push, but that was it. I think you are fine. I wouldn't worry about rooting our flashing custom roms. The room itself will have no effect on the phone. Either the hardware will work, or won't.
[HTC EVO 3D] chefdave12118:
Luckily there isn't a any doody in the SD card.... Or is there?

I'm trying to think but nothing happens.

Your not going to hurt anything now.. just do it.. I rooted mine after three days from buying it.. rooted works very well.. so much more to do than the iPhone.

[HTC EVO 3D] Genjinaro:
Doesn't Asur**n cover that?

LOL I did the same thing with the Samsung UpStage once, nasty (sanitized the hell out of it but I couldn't shake the thought) luckily I was within my 30 days, I exchanged it >_>.
[HTC EVO 3D] ninten5:
there was an 8gb sdcard works perfectly fine. It stuffed everything in rice.

Guess I spoke too early, the battery is holding 15min charge only, guess I gotta get a battery though.
[HTC EVO 3D] cityeyes:
About halfway through my contract, I ran my Mytouch3G through a full wash cycle. After about twenty minutes of searching through the house for the thing, I finally searched the washer, with dread, and my phone had a completely blank screen and was constantly vibrating.

Stuck the thing in rice for twenty hours and it didn't work. Freaked out for a second, then it dawned upon me to try my wife's battery in my phone. Picked up a battery for $7 on ebay and found absolutely nothing wrong with the phone.

Still works now even after I picked up a new phone on contract.

After that, I trust HTC hardware a lot.
[HTC EVO 3D] ifn_ace:
I had the same problem, but now my phone is much better. The damage that I got is the sound when I turned on the music. The sound was horrible:(. But is getting better now
[HTC EVO 3D] TaintedByte:
Oh my god. That gives me the chills. Poor phone 0.0

Anyway OP, I recommend getting the Chichitek batteries, they're pretty much same hold as the OEM ones and you can get two for the price you would pay for one OEM one. I have 2 of those and 3 OEM ones (had to replace my phone cause I smashed it and then the replacement one kept rebooting got a battery on both replacements, if we lived in the same area I'd give you one for free).
[HTC EVO 3D] SpartanEvo:
HTC hardware is very durable... reasonably. Remember the guy on YouTube that put his EVO 4G powered on in the bottom of a sink and filled it with water... and it continued to work?

[HTC EVO 3D] ninten5:
I watched that EVO video it gave me hope. Lol

Well I have used the phone regularly today and I got 12 hours with 45% left so battery might be okay? I might be paranoid but the phone isn't working as fast as before? I'll take your advice on that battery though.

O any 1clickroot app for this phone like the HTC hero?

Plus I'm not so sure that admission would've went over too well.
[HTC EVO 3D] rugedraw:
Wow.....that is pretty amazing. I dropped my OG Evo in a plastic cup full of Chivas Regal and ice. It slipped out of my hand and into the cup I was holding with my other hands when I was trying to unlock the screen. The phone never turned off, but I immediately shut it down, removed the battery cover and actually ran it through water to lightly to clean it. I put it in a bowl of rice and it worked the next day without a glitch.

I thought that was pretty amazing, but this makes my story seem trivial in comparison.

Let's not forget about the Evo that stopped a bullet. ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] ExploreMN:
Why do people keep dropping their phones in the toilet? I don't even bring my phone into the bathroom with me...there is nothing important enough that I need to take a call while taking a leak/dump.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Are you kidding me? My phone is my best (and only) bathroom companion...especially at work. Not so much at home, I keep the nook in there for any, ahem, long term projects.

Granted, my phone never leaves my pocket...especially when water is present. When I'm sitting on the toilet it's covered, lol. But if there is a pool present I'm far away from it...I can't even count how many facebook posts I saw this summer about "omg, pool, phone ruined, hurrible"...

I'd love to S my DH, but, isht also happens....that's why I have TEP.
[HTC EVO 3D] ninten5:
Well I don't really use it either but it was ringing in the bathroom and I quickly took it out to turn it off and pluck!

New developments in the water evo story, it seems the phone hangs up and crashes after locking/unlocking quickly. The battery widget shows 0% all the time and battery stats says on charge for couple of seconds but I have been using it lightly for two days!

Now my question is, is the battery going/gone or is there another problem? I have already ordered couple of batteries online but they'll be here in a 2 days.
[HTC EVO 3D] PMGRANDS:
Hey Anyone ever try Soaking it in Rubbing Alcohol? I heard that's suppose to be the Best thing to do if you get your phone Wet! Obviously Without the Battery, and Maybe even just the Internal part of the phone. I Can't really Remember tho. I Read it a while back, and Thank God Never had to Test it out Yet!

I guess (From what I can Remember) the Alcohol gets into wherever the Water was Able to. Then when its Removed from the Alcohol it mixes with the Air Evaporates With the Water!

Then it Suggested to "Also" Seal it in a Bag of Rice as a Step 2!

Like I said I Never tried myself, But Read where others Did and it Supposedly Worked Great!

[Nook Color General] Landara:
About my Nook is the bottom bar. I am running stock rooted(manual nooter) and so I have the bar on the bottom for my menu button back button etc. Well the only problem there is that when I hit menu for example on my homescreen to get into the main settings or launcher settings it gets very much in the way. Anyone found a solution to this?
[Nook Color General] BitingChaos:
I'm guessing you're talking about how a menu item or screen element appears *behind* the Status bar (blocking words, icons, etc)?

Try to contact the developer of that application and ask them to change it. Unfortunately, it seems there isn't aren't any standards or UI guidelines for developing Android applications (compared to something like iOS), so many programs don't look similar or work similar. I've seen very little consistency going from program to program. Google may have some published standards, but they do not enforce them.

For example. LauncherPro and ADW place menu elements in relation to other elements, using similar colors to the system theme. "GO Launcher" is coded to ignore other things and place menu elements where it pleases, using its own color scheme, regardless of anything else on the system.

The "fix" would be to ask the developer to stop doing that.
[Nook Color General] Landara:
Doh I'm running Go! too. Maybe I should bail on it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
I have a rooted phone with the clockworkmod recovery v3.0.0.5. I just received the firmware update from T-Mobile today, but it is failing to update to it.

When I selected to update the phone rebooted after a minute or so, I'm assuming to finish the firmware update. Then the phone booted back up it had a load bar that finished half way and then stopped on a screen with a triangle with a exclamation point on it. When I back out it goes to the cloackworkmod recovery screen and it says:

E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted

Now when reboot my phone it starts up normally for a few seconded and then automatically reboots trying to do the update again.

How do I update to the new T-Mobile firmware on a rooted phone?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 7sv7en7:
Having exact same problem. I tried autostarts/watchdog/advanced task killer but cannot find process that is rebooting phone. I knew it was a bad idea to just drink the cool-aid.

I found some threads where users of other phones had issues after killing bloatware, but I don't think that's the case here...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
How to update (YOU WILL LOSE ROOT)

You will lose data on the phone but data on sdcard will be fine. If you have s-off you shouldn't lose it or at least I didn't

1. Download the PD15IMG.zip file posted by Gr33nF0x http://megaupload.com/?d=N8XGHXJC

2. Put file on the root of your sdcard (do not rename it, leave it zipped, and don't put it in any folder)

3. go to settings/applications make sure fastboot is unchecked (on 2.2.1)

4. power off

5. push and hold volume down and power till you get into hboot

6. it will scan file when its done it should ask you to update push volume up
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
Ok, I followed your directions and worked... but it did reset my phone to factory default even though I have s-off.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
So it still looks like all the data is on my SD card, and I'm assuming that it is all still on the internal storage as there is only 1.05GB are which is a little more than I had before the update, but well under the total 8GB(internal).

So my question is, is there any way to get my data to show back up on the phone like a kind of resync or something?

Or a the very least resync my contacts from my google account... not sure how to do that, but from what I've heard Android automatically backs up some of your data to your google account and you can resync it on new or reset phone.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
Thats what i meant by losing your data on your phone, but the plus side is you can downgrade with the 2.2.1 PD15IMG file and you can flash clockwork recovery because you still have s-off and yes that means you can flash roms to
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
Well thats good to know, thanks!

I think I would be fine with just resyncing my contacts(don't know how) and just re-installing all my apps. Is it possible to resync my contacts?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
Your contacts from Google will sync as soon as you add the account witch you half to anyway to use the Android Market.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
Oh and could you post a link for the 2.2.1 PD15IMG?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
here you go http://www.filefactory.com/file/b4fh01d/n/PD15IMG_Glacier_TMOUS_1.17.531.2_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155771_signed.zip if you use this one rename it PD15IMG and do the same thing as the other one, it will set every thing to factory defaults like the other one
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
"but the plus side is you can downgrade with the 2.2.1 PD15IMG file and you can flash clockwork recovery because you still have s-off ".

So running the clockwork recovery will make all my data show up? Will it not work to just run clockwork recovery on the current OS 2.3.4?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
No it wont make your data show up clockwork recovery is for flashing and backing up your rom. First you half to flash it witch is different then downloading clockwork rom manager and flashing the recovery threw rom manager witch you can't do that because you are not rooted
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
Oh, I am rooted and I already have clockwork on there, unless updating to 2.3.4 deleted clockwork too.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
Ummm... only one contact showed up for me, and it is the other one on the account...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
And what exactly would be the purpose of going back to 2.2.1 now?

Thanks for the help!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
none really i was just saying you could if you wanted to
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
How to flash clockwork recovery with 2.3.4 with s-off

First download this file View attachment 713282 then rename it PD15IMG then

1. Put file on the root of your sdcard (do not rename it, leave it zipped, and don't put it in any folder)

2. go to settings/power make sure fastboot is unchecked (on 2.3.4)

3. power off

4. push and hold volume down and power till you get into hboot

5. it will scan file when its done it should ask you to update push volume up

You should have clockwork recovery instead of stock recovery witch will allow you to flash roms to get in to clockwork recovery do this make sure you delete that file off sdcard

1. go to settings/power make sure fastboot is unchecked (on 2.3.4)

2. power off

3. push and hold volume down and power till you get into hboot

4. push volume down once it should have recovery highlighted now push power

It should put you into clockwork recovery if the above worked right
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
I had clockwork recovery on my phone before, did it get erased when I updated to 2.3.4?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
yes it did
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
So if I follow your steps to get into clockwork recovery, will I be able to restore my clockwork backup on my sd card so I could at least get my contacts off before I update back to 2.3.4?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
yes you can use your backup but it will put 2.2.1 or whatever rom you backed up back on your phone I don't know if you can just get your contacts never tried it
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
Well I guess I didn't have my contacts sync to google, because they arn't coming back now that I have synced with my google account. I guess I'll try to restore my old clockwork backup and hope I can still access my old contacts, unless someone else knows of a better way get my contacts off the phone in this state...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
Also what version of clockwork is that link for, because on the other forum it say that the new one 5.x can't restore backup from 3.x/2.x and my backup is from 3.x.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
So did my root access get wiped out too?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
So I tried this but after doing the update and rebooting back into hboot I could not select recovery...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
it is 5.x , I just restored my phone with a backup made with 3.x
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
did you push volume down one time and then push power give it a couple of seconds after you get it into hboot before you try
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
Ya, and I don't see any selection changing. So should I let it completely reboot after flashing the recovery and then turn it off and boot it back into hboot, or should I just boot it directly into hboot and not let it boot up all the way?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
go directly to hboot
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
So it doesn't seem to be working...

Edit: it just keep going to the scanning screen and then asking me if I want to reflash the recovery image again.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
If you don't mind pm your phone number so i can try to help you better if you don't want to i can understand
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
I'm sorry but I don't really feel comfortable with that, plus I don't know how else you could help me if I can't change the selection with the volume button in hboot.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
It appears to be the right PD15IMG image since it only updates the recovery partition.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
Ok i think your best bet is to downgrade and re-root your phone and download rom manager restore backup from there
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
Oh did you delete that file after you used it if not it will keep trying to update
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
No!!! I just figured that out and it worked! Then I check here and you asked this. LOL. sorry! so now I can just restore my old backup on the sd card from here right?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOLF26915:
should be able to
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharksFan1:
So I was able to restore my backup and it has most of my contacts!

Now I'm trying to sync my contacts with google so I can update back to 2.3.4, but it is failing saying:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bharadwaj1991:
After reading the comments the_laser wrote on the X8 forum i think i got it. This IS a bootloader unlock EXCEPT for it ignoring the aARM thing, which then defines it as a "bypass" rather than a real unlock. But it does everything a real unlock does.

ALSO anybody know about my predicament...i used maxrfon simunlock method and will try this if i know if i can use teh setool2 version cuz i think it follows the same way maxrfon unlock works.

Don't rush into doing it!

It's pretty useless at the moment anyway! You can't do anything more than you already do, until developers give us new things to try (ROMs, kernels, etc). ;)

So you are saying that for format of "boot" we must use zImage... That is just sick... :mad:
