[Motorola Droid Bionic] manolith2011:
Hey guys..I went to the verizon store to get the extended battery for the bionic. While I was there I asked one of the reps about the mobile hotspot and if I would have unlimited data use with it because I have an unlimited data plan (grandfathered) ofcourse. He told me that I would only be able to use 2gb for tethering. Well thats a load of BS. who would really pay for tethering with a 2gb limit? Now I understand that the reps at the verizon store and any store for that matter dont know everything and can sometimes give you very misleading information. This is why I want someone on this forum that really know how this work if I would only get 2gb limit or a limit at all for the $30 tethering option I see on my account option from verizon. thanx!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] idefiler6:
Watching one movie over Netflix would put you close to 2GB. It's a f*cking joke.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cvmaas:
If you have the $30 plan, it's unlimited. I signed up for it on the website. It doesn't say its unlimited, just doesn't say there is a cap on that plan.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] manolith2011:
yes thats the option i see on the website for my account. well thats good to know. i guess that they try to put a smoke screen around it so you dont abuse it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tallnerd1985:
If you have the grandfathered Unlimited smartphone plan, you can add the $30 4G Hotspot plan and its truely unlimited but no one knows if its throttled or not. One of my co-workers is at 50Gb so far and no decrease in speeds. If you have the new usage based plans starting at $30/2gb then if you add the $20 hotspot w/2Gb, then you have 4Gbs to use via phone or hotspot.

Android Tools

I've put together a pack of tools to help with theming and modding :) These tools will help you do a lot of things. They will help you do things like: decompile APK's, sign APK's, decompress zImage kernels, convert dex to jar to review Java code instead of Smali code, browse sqlite databases, etc!

Included in this tools pack are:

apkmanager 4.9 (apk management suite, for older APK's)

apkmanager 5.0.1 (apk management suite, for newer APK's)

apksigner (sign APK's with personal and test keys)

asmzis (decompress zImage to review initramfs)

dex2jar (convert classes.dex to Java jar, review with GUI)

smali (decompile classes.dex to edit smali code, then recompile)

sqlitebrowser 2.0b1 (extract sqlite DB's from phone, edit)

xUltimate 2.3.1 (deodex framework and apk's)

apktool 1.3.2 (apk modding tool, for older versions of APK's)

apktool 1.4.1 (apk modding tool, for newer versions of APK's)

... and more ;) The best part is, most of the tools can be run with a simple batch file, already included.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] con247:
I successfully ported Sense 2.0 to the CDMA HTC Desire. Everything for the most part works great. Unfortunately, HTC still hasn't released our froyo kernel source (it has been about 7 months). So, in order to overclock with sense, I am stuck using our eclair kernel.

The issue: The sd card won't mount in froyo when running off the eclair kernel. It sees my ext3/4 partition just fine and a2sdext even works just fine. But the fat32 portion won't work.

I have tried a bunch of things including swapping vold from system/bin and adding vold.conf into system/etc (both from our eclair sense rom). When I do that, I get a bootloop that gets stuck at "waiting too long for mready!"

Any ideas on a fix?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Well, actually the kernel source code has been released. See here: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/htc-desire-kernel-froyo-mr-2-6-32-source-code-released/ . This may fix your problem (by using the actual Froyo kernel).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] con247:
nope, that is for GSM. As I stated in the first post I have the CDMA Desire.

Why? How can I check exactly what caused it?
[Galaxy S II General] banjolin:
I "developed" a problem with Auto Rotation after calibrating my horizontal and gyro sensors. If I enabled it everything except the home screen flipped straight into landscape. I have spent six hours trawling the web and every possible forum trying to find a solution, and having found none that worked, including re-calibrating and factory reset (ouch!) I decided it was a hardware problem and I was going to return the phone and get something else.

Please save yourself the bother and FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS for calibrating the sensors. It says PLACE THE PHONE ON A LEVEL SURFACE AND TAP CALIBRATE. Simples. That means place it flat on a table or something. Do not hold it upright in your hand, or upright on a mantlepiece or any other position. Put it screen up, camera down on a flat level surface and press calibrate.

It took me six hours to figure that out. Its just a damn shame that phone users like me are not as clever as the phones we use. And what a great bit of kit the S2 is. Put it down to user error. If you have had this problem, and this is the solution, and you now feel like a tit, join the club.
[Galaxy S II General] pepxl:
lol, made me laugh, how else would you have calibrated the sensors if not by just placing you phone down face up?

Make me wonder how people can get confused by such a simple task.
[Galaxy S II General] miniflight:
It took me 0.1 second to figured it out...lol
[Galaxy S II General] Midjet:
I still have the problem of home screen and application screens not rotating while oter screen rotate no problem.

I have enabled autorotate both in settings and dropdown menu.

I have calibrated gyro and horizontal settings.

I have run *#0# and run all tests on gyro etc and all work including the nice little chihuahua rotating etc.

I have installed numerous ROMS both stock and customised, with odin and via cwm but the rotate in home eludes me. Whereas my son's untouched phone works brilliantly.

I think mine went belly up after installing Villain Rom 3 but then again I can't be sure.

Anyone any other ideas?
[Galaxy S II General] mattisfaction:
Sounds to me like a hardware problem, as if you have used many different roms, factory reset to do so etc, it's the only logical conclusion. Therefore to fix it send it on to repairs
[Galaxy S II General] ctomgee:
@midjet: rotate in home you say? You mean the home screen? As far as I know, if you're running the stock touch wiz launcher, it DOESN'T rotate on the home screen. If you're running a third party launcher, like launcher pro or adw, you may need to turn it on in settings.

If your son's rotates on the home screen, then it is highly unlikely it is untouched.
[Galaxy S II General] mattisfaction:
Bloody good point mate, I am using TSF shell so it does not rotate at all either, did think of the homescreen app?

:confused:
[Galaxy S II General] bluesith:
You were lucky. I think jtag was the next option :-)

Thanks for sharing. Good giggle I had.

Full stop.
[Galaxy S II General] Midjet:
Thanks for all the replies.

My son won't let me near it, he is frigtened to lose warranty LOL

He will have a launcher running which may account for the rotate I suppose but it defo isn't rooted or customised ROM

My phone rotates fine everywhere else ie when running games or using web browser, even when in setting so I am inclined to think hardware is also fine.

Perhaps as mattisfaction says it never rotates in home screen.

Thanks for input guys...appreciated :)

[Galaxy S II General] undead_assault:
hmmm, how long your phone take to rotate the screen since you flip your phone? Mine is approximately 1 second. Is that normal?

[Motorola Photon 4G] craigbailey1986:
Asking for thread to be closed.

Sometimes we fall victim to thinking each forum is the same as others. Any person who came from the evo to the photon knows how quickly a bounty thread can turn into us vs them.

us=those for bounty

them= those against bounty

Me I just rather not be involved in such behavior because at the end of the day we are all here for one thing:

CM7

lol.....

Hood winked?? That's a bit weird to say, since the guy I listed does the porting for the atrix. But I will fix in a few

[Motorola Photon 4G] mrinehart93:
I'm in the process of porting CM7 for the Photon lol... and guess what? I'm doing it for free. Once kernel.org gets online I can get the correct source code... the one I pulled from Codeaurora.org was broken.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jamesdwalters:
I am always down to donate when someone makes something I want or feel is enough of a benefit to everyone, I don't really feel the same if I am basically paying someone ahead of time to "try" and do something. I really appreciate the many people who spend their personal time to make things work or work better for everyone. They definetly deserve the little bit of beer money they get from us.
[Motorola Photon 4G] brentmel:
beers for whoever gets cm7 on my photon first!
[Motorola Photon 4G] craigbailey1986:
Well i will let this die!!! Thanks!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] justforflashing:
Why would you let this die? Why are we hoping and praying that 1 person is going to bring the pain...I mean...CM7?

Plus I'm pretty sure you started the CM7 thread first. All I'm saying is if people are willing to develop, why not support them?
[Motorola Photon 4G] jamesdwalters:
No what was said was give up enough money to buy a couple ppl phones and "they" will try to port it. Very different then chipping in beer money for someone who made something you might use. It its called a donation because it its voluntary and all dev its done with no warranty, if you brick your phone it's on you.
[Motorola Photon 4G] craigbailey1986:
I dont think you understand what a bounty is or just looking for something to complain about.... It is paying for something you want before you get it.... I am not asking for anything nor is the atrix team. He stated they would need a phone to properly port and test it for us. We must realize that I went seeking them not them just porting on their own free will.

---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:51 PM ----------

I said let it die because, look at how many views we have on this thread and how many actually said they were willing to donate for the cause. If rinehart can get it done and he has the phone might as well just donate to him , ya know. But hey lets see what happens
[Motorola Photon 4G] the2dcour:
I appreciate your use of capslock. It would be ironic except it is fitting. Maybe the people working on CM7 will make the official post about CM7. How about that?
[Motorola Photon 4G] craigbailey1986:
Not sure if that is sarcasm... But guess either way its not worth feeding into.:confused:
[Motorola Photon 4G] R2DeeTard:
A bounty is usually applied AFTER service is complete. You don't see bounty hunters getting paid BEFORE they bring the guy in...

boun·ty   /ˈbaʊnti/ Show Spelled[boun-tee] Show IPA

noun, plural -ties.

1. a premium or reward, especially one offered by a government: There was a bounty on his head. Some states offer a bounty for dead coyotes.

Why would we pay him before he does something when someone else could potentially do this before him? Appreciate what you are trying to do and when we get CM7, you'll see my $10.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jamesdwalters:
+1

Thanks for explaining it and saving me the time. I wasn't being a **** just explaing how I saw it. I like the idea of people doing this because they want to not just for $.
[Motorola Photon 4G] craigbailey1986:
I would just ask if you guys would look around the site. Most device dev section have a bounty thread for something someone wants and doesnt mind paying for it or paying for the tools the dev needs to start.

This thread was not about giving money to anyone for producing cm7 but helping the atrix team get a photon, so they could port cm7. As I stated before this thread can die since rinehart said he was porting it and had the phone already.:D
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x13v4:
I havenot seen this posted so I thought I would mention it.

I recently rebuilt my gtab using VEGAb-Tan 7.1.0 on top of BL1.2.5274 in search of a stable and compatable build

I must say it has been working very well, very fast and very compatable.

The one problem I did have and this has been with every build is Market access. I an using Market 3.1.3

Just for the heck of it I decided to alter the build.prop to show the manufacturer as Viewsonic and the model as Gtablet

Low and behold it worked as evidenced by the sceen shots.

I would like to know if anyone else has seen this.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nvanlaar:
The real question is: "Which apps aren't showing/available for install?" What kind of access does that give you?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] crishark:
I was flashing back to the stock rom and now Bootlooped, unable to enter download mode or recovery. I'm within in my manufacturer warranty period. If I return it to T-mobile in order to receive an immediate replacement, how likely is it that samsung would consider it Out of Warranty due to rooting and what not?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TheKucho:
Not sure how warranty works but you can try it. I've heard that sometimes the download screen doesn't pop up but odin recognizes ot. Try that before anything.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Exodian:
You root you void warrenty. Unless you flashed a different model rom you can most likely bring it back to life.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
Follow 1 of many of the boot loader debricking guides. They should work.

does that mean people who update the leaked OTA on to their phone could potentially flash back to original stock?

Yes but more importantly the magic unicorn is hear to pour rainbows, and new seasons of Firefly. Our possibilities are now endless!
[Motorola Droid 3] `Ghost`:
cant tell if youre being serious or sarcastic. As im still farily new here. but um..are you serious though? that we would be able to go back to pure stock non ota?

I actually dont like some things the OTA has done and would rather have a bit of a blue tint than some other stuff.
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
Roms will be based off of .890
[Motorola Droid 3] `Ghost`:
Not really caring about roms. My main concern, right now, is if someone backs a backup of the bone stock pre OTA phone, with clockwork recovery, will i be able to install it on to my phone?
[Motorola Droid 3] Rick#2:
I think the best part of this so far is that nandroid is working (ie: backups can be made & flashed w/o the hassles of using RSDLite and waiting for SBFs). Great news! One step closer to Cyanogen.
[Motorola Droid 3] erismaster:
I believe its possible, but not practicle or easy. You have to change a bunch of stuff to the backup and then I'm pretty sure you have issues with the esn and stuff, but I could be wrong. I remember it being discussed once, but that was many months ago.
[Motorola Droid 3] wootizzle:
Hopefully..
[Motorola Droid 3] `Ghost`:
well im not a wiz at this but i figured if i created a backup of my phone bone stock, if i upgraded i could recover and/or flash back. thought it worked like that
[Motorola Droid 3] tacosrdelicioso:
Bootloader

Still have efuse bootloader folks
[Motorola Droid 3] GoogleAndroid:
There are still ways to get CM7 running on the Blur kernel. And overclock it with modular overclocking.

I hope to see this phone at 1.5 ghz someday. But what I really want is a stock themed debloated rom. Recovery means we're about have roms, so I can't wait!
[Motorola Droid 3] MyNarwhalBacon:
Basically what it means is that you can install any rom made for the droid 3. Different "cooks/chefs" (people who cook or make roms) will make roms ranging from stock 2.3.4 (sans blur) to modified "improved" 2.3.4 stock droid rom to new versions that have leaked like the upcoming Ice-cream os and maybe even Jelly Bean.

Truly unicorns here. I remember when I had the D1 the battery life was barely better than what we have now. Liquid cooked up a rom that gave me a 2 day battery life with heavy use.

Not to mention hotstpotting and other cool things. I doubt getting past or fooling the Efuse is too difficult after the unlocked bootloader.
[Motorola Droid 3] Rick#2:
Look at how far development has come on the Milestone despite its locked bootloader; granted, it's been almost 2 years since that phone came out but it certainly is possible to squeeze way more performance out of these bad boys than is possible with their stock representation!

Can't wait to see what happens in the next few months!
[Motorola Droid 3] rynosaur:
No. Rules#1 of Nandroid is no sharing Nandroids.
[Motorola Droid 3] wootizzle:
Continue..
[Motorola Droid 3] dpwhitty11:
They store some things that are phone-specific.
[Motorola Droid 3] cellzealot:
In the old days people shared nandroids all the time...it was common practice among early copy and paste ROM/Theme "devs".

You simply do a custom backup and save only the system and boot or even system only and omit the data partition.

You will still find people occasionally releasing nandroids for one reason or another, its just much more common to see update.zip installs because they are a better way to distribute and package any form of mod.

We will soon have all of these available to us...very soon...this works! ;)

[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
Cvpcs just tweeted that his bionic bootstrap app is complete...
[Motorola Droid 3] `Ghost`:
i dont like some of the things the OTA has done to the phone. but maybe its just the soak version that did this. IDk either way im hoping that this clockwork recovery will aid me in reverting back to pure stock pre ota
[Motorola Droid 3] Maverick0984:
The soak version and the OTA are one in the same. What don't you like? I'm thinking you might be blaming the wrong source. Meaning whatever you are having issues with is either hardware related, was there before the update anyway, or isn't even actually an issue and it is the because of user error or missed expectations. :-/
[Motorola Droid 3] `Ghost`:
when i first got my D3 i decided to find out what was the absolute lowest FPS the phone would record at in little or no light. so i took it in to my room with only my monitor lighting up the room and shot a video. then i turned the monitor off, pitch black, and recorded a video. Both reported 20fps. Not bad for little or no light. since the ota the phone with even moderate light records at about 12 to 14fps. with little or no light it records at 11 - 12 fps.

Unacceptable. videos look like a steaming pile.. I'd rather have a slight blue tint and higher FPS

all tests were done at 720 and 1080
[Motorola Droid 3] Yonnor:
No one else is having these problems, maybe it's just your device. It's possible you had a bad flash or you messed up something in your settings.

Have you given other video recording app's a try?
[Motorola Droid 3] limaxray:
The rest of us with the update have no problem shooting high frame rate video in 1080p in low-light. The only thing I can think of is what ever app you are using is playing games with the shutter speed. Do you have it on a low-light setting or something?

Furthermore, you cannot expect good low-light performance from a phone's camera - the sensor is just too damn small.
[Motorola Droid 3] `Ghost`:
im not expecting stellar low light performance. but my point is pre ota it was 20fps now its 12 fps.

i even reflashed the OTA just to make sure nothing went wrong. and yes i've tried other recording apps. videos that would record at a minimum of 20fps now record at 12.
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
As stated, no one else has reported video FPS problems with .890. I just shot a 1080p video and it looks just fine. This thread also isn't about you and your phone so please stop derailing it.
[Motorola Droid 3] `Ghost`:
Wonder how long it will be before we get some custom roms and overclocks going.
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
You've gone on for 3 pages about your FPS. I'm trying to keep the conversation on point here and you come at me with belligerence.

Honestly I'm more interested in CWM for my phone then your FPS, just sayin. Chill.
[Motorola Droid 3] `Ghost`:
*sigh* youre right, i apologize. my main question about CWM was being able to flash back to bone stock in the future if i had to.
[Motorola Droid 3] somemadcaaant:
Hmm yep `Ghost` is correct the framerate default range changed from "20000,30000" in .959 to "12000,30000" in .890 this is clear in the camera properties and deodexed blurcamera.apk.

This can be changed back - tho I suspect the fps drop was in addition to the blue tint fixes to ISO/whitebalance values, the sensor now has to work harder so lowering the fps does help in some situations for quicker transitions to lower light conditions.

@`Ghost` this can be modified mate so there's zero reason to flash back.

-smc
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Would this also work on XT860?
[Motorola Droid 3] `Ghost`:
I knew I wasnt crazy!!! :D
[Motorola Droid 3] limaxray:
It was only the lower bound that was decreased - you are still having another problem that is holding you to that lower bound. I and others are seeing frame rates closer to the upper bound. In other words, you have an existing problem and the update has made it more noticeable.
