[LG Thrill 4G] timmytim:
I've got a question about swapping phones (for anyone). I got this Thrill at Target for $29.99 but if I wanted to exchange it for another phone, do I have to take it back to where I got it and pay the difference or can I just take it to an AT&T store? I've actually never swapped a phone before

Sent from my Cappy.........
[LG Thrill 4G] PBCRUM1970:
It depends. If u signed a contract then u have 30 days to exchange it. You pay a 35 dollar restocking fee and the difference in your new choice.
[LG Thrill 4G] PBCRUM1970:
I have a question too. I dont notice a new messaging app or theme. Am i missing a setting somewhere?
[LG Thrill 4G] gtg465x:
You on v1.0.3? Check in settings. If so, does your Messaging app not look like the screenshot in the first post?
[LG Thrill 4G] ATTShawn:
It has to be returned to the Target, and their policy is only 14 days. No restocking fee.
[LG Thrill 4G] timmytim:
I promise I wont hijack this thread. Last post by me about this.....

Just curious though, would returning this phone mean that the contract that I resigned would go away as well? I'm thinking I will probably like the sgs II better. The battery life sucks on this phone and the dev's leaving it are discouraging.

back to stock

When an OTA is released I can flash back to stock

How to flash back to stock?

Thanks
[LG Thrill 4G] gtg465x:
Well you probably can't, but I can ;)
[LG Thrill 4G] timmytim:
I was just wondering the same thing because I am considering another phone. Could we restore the NAND backup of the stock image?
[LG Thrill 4G] gtg465x:
That's one way. Nandroid back to stock, flash your backed up stock recovery, run superoneclick unroot, factory reset. Should be completely stock then.
[LG Thrill 4G] jetski:
thanks for the reply
[LG Thrill 4G] N!ghtgold:
Hey gtg going to return this device for the gs2 but I can get my nandroid backup to restore I might be doing it wrong though I get a md5 checksum error
[LG Thrill 4G] _RMB_:
gtg... i hope you dont get rid of your thrill and keep this up cause this last update is absolutely amazing!!! keep up the good work!
[LG Thrill 4G] 00mred00:
Interesting.. .they (radio shack kiosk in target) told me 30 days

That being said.. lets stop highjacking this thread and take the discussion of non rom stuff to general...i am sure the dev would appreciate. Besides.. the s2 is not releasing this week. If you have proof by all means...post it

Flashing 1.0.3 now. ;)

Locksreen swipe up mod

Without any 3rd party app from the Market, with our rooted Thriller rom installed, how can we change the lock screen to another style lockscreen? Main reason is the lag from 3rd party apps showing the old lock screen briefly first ie. WidgetLocker shows the original then the newly selected lockscreen. I am comfortable with the terminal or using or going into custom recovery if theres a zip file of another lockscreen. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Really just want the Froyo lockscreen (swipe left to unlock, swipe right for volume mute/unmute.

Edit: created a new topic altogether.
[LG Thrill 4G] hidarez:
can't get 'removed.zip' to install

I was able to install the Full 1.0.3 but the 'removed' zip wouldn't install in clockwork.
[LG Thrill 4G] _RMB_:
removed zip is just a stand alone zip file with apk's that he removed. you can pick and choose what apps you want installed and do them individualy.
[LG Thrill 4G] hidarez:
That makes sense. Thanks for clearing that up.
[LG Thrill 4G] rockstarbrad04:
I LOVE your roms gtg.. used infused from the time I got my infuse and I am dying to try this one out but the CWM install freaks me out a little.. not only is it more diffifult than it was on the infuse it sounds like its a much higher risk of bricking the phone. For that reason I will not be able to use thriller unless someone can really dumb down the CWM install for me.
[LG Thrill 4G] Trekfan422991:
Its already pretty dumb... The instructions just assume you have exlerience with adb commandz.... If you do then it is a breeze... So I recommend brushing up on your adb knowledge... Otherwise the instructions are pretty simple... It seems the most trouble people are having is with the copying of the recovery.img to the data folder... To be honest I just did it using root explorer on my phone...

Mount data folder as r/w then paste the .img and long click, select permissions, and make sure all boxes are checked... Then remount as r/o and then follow the adb commands to flash it...
[LG Thrill 4G] rockstarbrad04:
I had no problem pushing the recovery.img to the data folder from ADB.. just had to change the permissions... i get hung up on backing up the other recovery (or atleast thats what dg's instructions say you are doing). I even copy/pasted the codes into ADB but I was getting permission errors and I tried changing permissions on several different folders and never could get my stock recovery to back up.. from that point on I was affraid of bricking.
[LG Thrill 4G] 00mred00:
1.0.3 is golden. No issues yet

Long overdue donation coming. Everything you have done here and on the infuse is greatly appreciated.
[LG Thrill 4G] kiltedthrower:
This maybe a reallllly stupid question. Now that I have CWM recovery, do I just flash this rom through rom manager like I did a million times on the Captivate?
[LG Thrill 4G] shadrick:
no place it on your sd card and use the clockwork recovery, no one has mentioned the rom manager so im not sure if it would work i could be wrong though but i used the method i stated and i didnt have a problem
[LG Thrill 4G] samftw:
gtg your a boss! I work at at&t and I got everyone at my store using your rom, pretty much kept me from jumping back to my inspire.. Keep up the good work!

Few questions/suggestions: can you increase loading speed of camera?

Noticed you changed hspa class to 10, why not 14?

Any work on kernels for CPU OC?

Theme with a little bit of color lol

Your my hero
[LG Thrill 4G] gtg465x:
Anyone in an HSPA+ area want to help me get some screenshots for a news article? Need you to get some speedtest screenshots and then flash back to stock and do the same, showing the massive difference. I'm out right now and don't have time. Thanks
[LG Thrill 4G] fn1046:
Love to help u gtg but I still can't get above 4mps on average. I don't know what the problem is I'm in a hspa+ area, once or twice I've seen 6mps.
[LG Thrill 4G] 00mred00:
Will see what I can do. Have to get over to that area tho.
[LG Thrill 4G] CEaton:
I'm in an hspa+ area too but I can't get over 2mbps. Starting to feel like sprint all over again.
[LG Thrill 4G] :
Had permissions issue and root explorer fixed it for me.

Thank You.
[LG Thrill 4G] _RMB_:
G i dont have time right now to flash back to stock right now but im in the south florida area (hspa+ area) and with stock rom i was averaging 1.5-2.0 mbps and then with your rom with about 10 tests ran the slowest was 4.18 mbps and fastest was6.36 so far. as i drive a lot im giong to keep testing around the whole area. im going to try to up load a screen shot of atleast with you rom later.

hope this is good info
[LG Thrill 4G] 47r0n1n:
Yeah I have been rolling on 4G since I flashed the first version of this ROM. What cracks me up is I an one of the few in this area actually getting 4G! Nice job as always gtg! This ROM has ran flawless for me since day one.
[LG Thrill 4G] 00mred00:
Best I could do today..Mckinney Tx (North Dallas)
[LG Thrill 4G] Handalaan:
I would offer my assistance in the recording of speeds but since flashing I'm actually getting significantly slower speeds with Thriller. Any ideas what might be messed up?
[LG Thrill 4G] gtg465x:
Probably just coincidence. The tower in your area may be having difficulties.
[LG Thrill 4G] Handalaan:
If anything changes, I'll keep you posted. If things pick up, I will post my stats from the Columbus, OH area.
[LG Thrill 4G] kingfisher1111:
My speeds are awesome.
[LG Thrill 4G] nrvate:
Much happier now that you've included the kernel.. That fixed some things for me :)
[LG Thrill 4G] kurrptsenate:
i haven't noticed any data speed increases, but I wouldn't say its gotten slower. Probably just my crap area i would assume.

the 1.03 w/ kernel resolved a lot of my issues after going over to the darkside (O3D)

really happy with your current build. keep up the good work
[LG Thrill 4G] N!ghtgold:
I can help you out I'm getting about 7mb down 1.5 up I have the speed test result on my device so I can post it here
[LG Thrill 4G] irishpunk:
Gotta say, I'm loving this rom. As far as installation went, was pretty smooth. Had permission problems with getting the recovery.img into the /data folder, fixed that and installed CWM in a roundabout way. All you have to do is put it in the root folder in you phones internal memory then change any command prompt command that has anything to do with /data/recovery.img to /mnt/sdcard/recovery.img got it installed fine, works great! Keep up the good work gtg
[LG Thrill 4G] baudilus:
Can't flash back to stock but I still have my stock results and a test I ran this morning. The stock is dated 9/7 so way before thriller was released.

Hello, all...

What is Facebook UploadManager service which allways running on background on my NX S? Its starting automaticaly after every reboot and consume lot of RAM and battery. I see this after update to FB v1.7.1 - its normal?

I´sorry for my bad english... ty for your reply :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] king23adrianc:
lol i noticed that too

i just keep it there just like market

the amount of free ram in running service is actually not the free ram the system has anyway
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] tailsthecat3:
It came with the new update. I uninstalled cause facebook is horrid.

I recommend not using facebook.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] challl88:
OK thanks, another solutions?

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] aalbert:
I ended up uninstalling fb because I couldnt figure out how to shut it down. It was destroying my battery, usually draining it completely after around 5hrs.

Was this happening to anyone else?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] droidance:
I just go to Settings -> Applications -> Running services -> Click Facebook -> Stop UploadManager service.

You have to do this after every reboot but it's a temporary solution...
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] aalbert:
I was going to 'manage apps' --> 'running' ---> then force stopping it. but it'd keep turning itself back on

is your way doing soemthing different?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] droidance:
Mine doesn't turn on unless I reboot my phone.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] aalbert:
ok, going to reinstall and see if it acts goofy again. thanks for the help

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sygys:
Hi,

I have Desire HD and have rooted it and put custom rom on it. I contacted HTC and they told me i have no warrenty. Is there a possible way to revert the bios and all software back to stock and if yes, how?

Thanks in advance!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] itachi1706:
Revert back to stock using an RUU found here. Make sure the RUU you download starts with RUU_ACE.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sygys:
So i download the top one and then? just run the exe?

There is no explaination of how to install the stock rom...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] itachi1706:
Yeah. Make sure you have HTC Sync installed for the drivers.
[HTC Sensation] Razpr:
Hey guys I just got my Anker Battery 2 days ago and it says to let it charge and discharge about 5 times before getting better results. So far so good and its getting better. I'm on my 2nd charge but just so im clear on something here...

By charge to discharge does it mean to charge to 100% (turning the phone off) then discharge to 0% ( phone shuts off) and charge to 100% again 5 times? Been doing that and im not charging in between so it's a mess when it runs out while I'm not home (happened today!)

Also: any suggestions or opinions on the product so far?

Ps:was in supposed to clear the battery stats or something?
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
I only do it 3 times.

As soon as I get the battery I turn it on & run it into the ground. After it's shut off from a dead battery I plug it in & let it charge with the device still off. When the charging light turns green I turn the phone on & run it into the ground again. Rinse & repeat for 3 cycles.

I love my Anker battery. I get way better battery life with it versus stock & it doesn't overheat like it the stock one does. I use one, my buddy with another Sensation does as well, & my mom with her MyTouch 4G has one too. All are outstanding!
[HTC Sensation] Marco_GER:
Sounds good...i should try it too
[HTC Sensation] gramma782:
just ordered my anker yesterday - i think the 5 times advise is the same like deleting the battery stats - more a software then hardware related thing
[HTC Sensation] nrvnqsrxk:
Sounds like your training your phone to establish effective range. Personally I would run it into the ground five times, but some people say It's okay to charge when It's under 10%. Better safe than sorry is what i think. U only have two more cycles to go, suck it up.

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Ethel the Aardvark:
I have had mine for a few weeks now and it is getting me at least an extra 20% with heavy usage...

Even the new Sensation XE only gets a 1750mAh battery I have read today...still under powered imo

The XE proves that the base Sensation we all have is definately underclocked and that running at 1.5GHz is quite safe...

Alternatively:

Settings->Accounts and sync and then tapp Add account, select Google Accounts and follow the guide

[Motorola Droid 3] iggihk:
Hello~

I have a unlock Droid 3, and every time when I try to perform call forwarding, the "call forwarding is disable outside of Verizon Wireless network." message will pop out.:mad:

Is there anyway to bypass this?

Thank you very much!
[Motorola Droid 3] leobg:
You are SOL. This feature is disabled by Verizon. The restriction is integrated on baseband level (radio firmware), so even if you root the phone you cannot touch it.

If you want to perform call forwarding, take the sim out of D3, place it in normal phone, set forwarding the way you want it and put the sim back in D3. That's the only workaround.
[Motorola Droid 3] Raa_1:
Damn! Now you guys tell me! :P

Oh well.
[Motorola Droid 3] iggihk:
Too bad... I should have gone to the xt 860 instead...

I wonder why would Verizon do something like that to a unlocked phone:mad:
[Motorola Droid 3] leobg:
Reason is simple - so you are forced to use their services. After all this model was made exclusively and specifically for Verizon. And by default they are all (XT862 - Droid 3) locked to Verizon. If you bought it unlocked from somewhere - they unlocked it before sale. No Droid 3 is manufactured unlocked - even if you buy it straight from Motorola USA.

So I'm going to bailing on my evo 4g and Sprint in a few weeks and I was wanting to know why the pros and cons are of the sgs2. I see it. I want it badly but I was the same with my evo and I rushed into buying it now I know I should have done more research for it. Any help people ???????

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luminus:
To be honest, you can't go wrong with buying a GS II.

Its still a beast about hardware and remain it for a while.

I was always looking for the perfect smartphone and learned the hard way that it doesn't exist. Even the GS II isn't perfect, but it comes close how a smartphone should be.

At this moment i don't see any phone that could replace my GS II.

Good luck with you choice.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alias3800:
lol I'm right where you were when you first got it - I love changing gadgets. But my timeline is more like 6 months, which is usually when I'm done hacking, modding and having fun with whatever little device I can get my hands on.

But this phone.. is outstanding. It is ridiculously fast and handles everything I can throw at it so damn smoothly. I had a small list of things that my iPhone 4 couldn't do without lagging, and this handles them without a hitch. It's a serious amount of speed that has spoiled me for devices to come.

[General Questions and Answers] kpsmithuk:
Just can't make my minf up over what I should do, the GS2 does look nice, it's different and has the better hardware but then it's relativeley new tech for phones (dual core) and alot could go wrong.

With Sony the ARC is a polished X10 with imporvements and looks to be a stable phone, however with Sony's previous sham with flagship phone releases being replaced in a short time and with no upgrade path until the complaints roll in (as with X10i) This is a bit of a worry

Now the ARC S is due at the end of November as is my upgrade, Do I wait 2 weeks and grab an ARC S, I have the X10i now and am happy with that running 2.3.3 - Or do I jump ship to samsung (last one I had was a pixon before my X10i and wasn't all that impressed)

I just don't know what to do, have had a look through the other posts and there are good and bad points to both, ARC seems to suffer from case cracking due to over heat and also poor battery (nothing new compared to X10i and i can live with it) ARC S seems to be what the ARC was to the X10i - the real flagship.

Anyone give an unbiased view on the phones? i really am at a loss this time.
[General Questions and Answers] kpsmithuk:
Played with the arc sensation and gs2 in town over a few weekends arc just seems like the x10i in a new case, bigger better display though. 3d panorama on arc s is nice but i don't have a 3d tv to make it worthwhile

Gs2 well thin but felt flimsy compared to arc. good cam though no separate hard button i could find only downside, colour intensity is a bit mad and will take some getting used to. Also wow is it fast!

Sensation was ok but dont like the htc launcher etc i don't think that the xe will be enough spec wise to make me put up with the interface.

Although phone was most rugged feeling of all 3.

Over all its a straight knockout between the arc s and gs2. I think the gs2 is edging it atm will decide on the day in store i feel having played with both

Ive had a play and thanks to this forum Ive managed to get rid of the stock Orange firmware and I am now running the new EU Mango.

The problem I have is that the signal is OK on Orange but as I am on O2 the signal is very hit and miss but usually I get the dreaded "no signal".

Ive checked the sim and tried another but is there anyway to change the radio on this so I may get a better signal on O2.

I have looked but no luck.
