I would say doomlord and blagus

Sent from my R800
[Xperia Play General] AndroHero:
Imo it should be doomlord (defo) and zerojay or binary. As far as i'm concerned for all the money blagus was donated he has gave nothing back to the community except free unlocks to the people that donated! (I hope i don't offend anyone with that comment)
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
You forget that he delivered the SETweak kernel,before Doom, and he's been busy with porting Sense. You brought the first update.zip ROM, too. Being the first one counts IMO, because you risk much of your reputation.
[Xperia Play General] brochador:
I suggest give it to the Thread starter that helped you.. It's your call..

DooMlord is a good choice

[Samsung Infuse 4G] bsutton:
Ok, so i went to flash an I9000 rom (Darkys) and planned on flashing hellraiser over it. OBVIOUSLY i did something wrong...it rebooted itself after i flashed the rom, and i didnt have a chance to flash hellraiser. It turns on to the samsung screen, but it stays there for about 2 seconds then this white line flashes and it just turns off. I cant boot into recovery and i cant boot into dl mode (That i know of...) please help:( i just got this phone 2 days ago:(
[Samsung Infuse 4G] the2rrell:
all else fails you can always by a Jig.

if you cant get into Recovery OR DL mode.....that maybe your only Option.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Try the following to enter DL mode:

Pull battery and reinsert. DO NOT hit Power.

Hold VolUp and VolDn at the same time

Insert the USB cable from your PC

This should enter download mode

I have a HTC Thunderbolt and when I try and root it using the SuperOneClick method, it starts the process and almost right away it says waiting for device... and then my computer locks up. I am a beginner and do not know much yet, but if someone has a suggestion on what to do I would sure appreciate it. I have tried restarting computer, doing a factory data reset on phone and nothing seems to make any difference.

Yes. I have AVG antivirus and I have tried temporarily disabling it for 15 minutes while I try to root my phone but it did not seem to make any difference. Any other ideas?

I had the issue where I had a brick after the OTA. After recovering via:

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1126358

The device was recovered but I noticed that the market no longer will allow for download. The error I received is that the device has insufficient space and cannot download the file. This is with any file that I try from the market. Other applications allow for download.

Strange thing is the that the system under

Setting/Storage/Available space is reporting 65mb available

in contrast to:

Setting/Application Settings/Storage use is reporting 78mb available

Anyone having this problem?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasonKnight:
same problem here as well except after a bit now my market force closes.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mathias999us:
I am having this exact same problem as well.

---------- Post added at 11:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 AM ----------

I ran a logcat trying to install from the market. Here are the lines I believe to be relevant to this problem:

Where is the internal download storage supposed to be located?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasonKnight:
couldn't find anything out of the ordinary with root explorer...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mathias999us:
I think the fix for the forced OTA was intended non R800X phones. I don't know much about how the internal storage is partitioned and formatted on these phones, but apparently it repaired the trim area that was corrupted by the unlocked bootloader + new OTA bootloader. My theory is that the non-R800X image we flashed to fix the brick problem caused a problem with either the partitioning or one of the filesystems on a partition on the internal storage. We probably either need to fix a partition or filesystem on the internal storage, or flash a CDMA/R800X image to repair the trim area. I don't know where to get that though...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antEris:
You can get the stock ftf here I believes http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1201725 its for 2.3.2 though. And as a disclaimer, I have absolutly no idea what will happen if you do this. "Not anteris' fault":D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasonKnight:
to hell with it, jumped to CM7 even though I don't think it is ready. Much better then stock.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eros78:
Well after flashing back to stock I realized that I would probably want the update more than having a phone that has 80% functionality. So I unrooted and relocked the bootloader, went back to stock and...I am pleasently surprised.:o

WIFI tether works. Media Server, Auto Brightness, rapid boot times. I mean this is pretty good. I would love to have a rooted ver. of this build. I mean I love having a rooted phone as much as the next guy but for us 800x guys it kinda pointless to have root with no stable custom ROMs and Kernels to expand the functionality and increase speed.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mathias999us:
Man, I'm totally torn on what to do here. I'd much rather have CM7, but according to the State of Dev thread, no outgoing SMS? That's rather debilitating...

Then there's back to stock, unrooted with official update. I believe that's a trap door you might not be able to come back through in the future.

Decisions. Maybe I'll hold off and manually install apks as necessary for now...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cat_On_Droid:
Attain ROOT,delete all market related data/apks and download a new one.

Maybe that will help?Very Doubtful but if you flashed,and restored app,some are BOUND not to work (like FUN AND DOWNLOADS!)!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasonKnight:
my text messaging is working and I jumped to CM7 last night.

no issues on CM7 as of yet, I bumped down their over clock from 1.5GHz to 1.2GHz. I have no need to have it that high when the phone worked fine at 1.0GHz. I gained well around 200MB+ of storage space, installed everything that I had before (before it was all on the memory card) on the phone and I still have more space then what I had before I made the switch. Calls work, DPS Manager is a pointless addition since it doesn't do what it is supposed to do on the R800x. I am noticing a little more battery drain then usual but that could also be me from setting the phone back up to how I used it before.

PSXperia doesn't work but I have a paid version of FPSE to hold me over. And touch pads wont work till next release but I hardly play any games that require them.

My only problem right now is their thread, it is so scrambled, i mean I shouldnt have to read every page to find information about bugs with the phone. or find out the release change notes. I will keep you updated on what works and what doesn't.
[Desire General] mackowiakp:
I want to export contacts located onmy HTC DESIRE SIM card to GOOGLE account. It is because I want to sync such contacts with my linux based PC (Thunderbird with apropriate plug-in) and my Android based tablet. So:

- Hoh can I export SIM located contacts to my GOOGLE account? I am not able to fing the way to do it. Any help?
[Desire General] chrismast:
cant you use export/import function? => export all contacts to SD, import into Google Account on phone and than delete the sim contacts.
[Desire General] mackowiakp:
Of course I can export to SD card and I can directly import such file to Thunderbird. But my idea is to sync contacts automaticaly (or on demand) my HTC to my PC and Android based tablet, using Google cloud (account) without deleting SD stored contacts. And i still want to have synchronised contact databse in PC, HTC and tablet even in off-line state that without logging to my Google account.

And I dont know how to import contacts from HTC to Google account. If the only possibily is to manually export contacts to SD card, more simple is to import such file directly to PC using for example "file expert". But I want to have all syncing work to be done automaticaly
[Desire General] chrismast:
sorry maybe I was not clear enough. I meant export it to a file on your phone and import it into your phone's google account. After that it will sync all contacts in your phone's gmail account to your gmail account (internet) which you can connect with your tablet or PC (not outlook though). Would be a cloud solution you are talking about I hope. At least thats the way I go, only got contacts in gmail anymore, no sim contacts or whatever.

---for import into your phone: go into "People" app, select import/export, select import, select into gmail, select exported contact file
[Desire General] mackowiakp:
Yes. Now I understand the way You suggest to do.

But I find most easy solution of the problem. There is small program avaliable in Android Market which allow syncing phone Android contact list directly to Thunderbird (linux based in my case) over network. So now I have my "private cloud" and I can sync tablet, PC (linux Mandriva) and phone without problems. Does not matter is it SD stored contacts, Goggle and so on. I think this is solution for WIN based PC too if Thunderbird is used as mail client (not tested by myself).
[HTC Sensation] ptichik:
Hi,

I've read several articles about the subject, but not sure I really understood the difference, since most of comments are vague like "S-OFF provides more flexibility", "Revolutionary installs custom recovery", "S-OFF is S-OFF" etc...

I have European Sensation with HBOOT 1.18.0, no operator SIM locking. What I did so far was applying the official unlock, and it was successful - now it's "Unlocked" but "S-ON". Then, also flashed the latest CWR 5.0.2.0 via fastboot and it also loads well.

Basically what I want to do now is wiping everything and trying several custom ROMs (CoreDroid, CM etc). Don't think I need anything deeper like custom bootloaders, unofficial Radio updates etc - but not sure which parts are residing in NAND...

So the question is whether S-OFF is needed for these purposes, or the official unlock is sufficient? If I do, could you please clarify what exactly won't work in S-ON mode?

Thanks a lot in advance!
[HTC Sensation] TechB74:
Noob here - Same question.

Hello ptichik,

I've done the same as you and was wondering what the next step is as well. I just want superuser access. I was Googling for advice and came across your post. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Regards,

TechB74
[HTC Sensation] Snah001:
Well, now htc knows you are using their unlock method, so now officially your warranty is gone......

Should have used the unofficial method where you could revert from to s-on having no warranty issues.......

It is all about reading what is going on here!@
[HTC Sensation] TechB74:
Thanks for that information, I was aware of what I was doing. I would greatly appreciate it if you could tell me what would the next step be to getting root access.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Not 100% correct, a hardware fault isn't caused by you unlocking the bootloader so you'd be covered in that instance
[HTC Sensation] TechB74:
What's next?

So now that i've unlocked the bootloade the official way. What should I do to get root?
[HTC Sensation] tpbklake:
You should start by learning how to use the search facilities of this forum to find your answer.

Flash a custom recovery using fastboot.

Using the custom recovery, install the latest version of SU.
[HTC Sensation] jdelforge5684:
Check out the stickies in the development section. Also, be prepared for a lot of attitude if u post a question thats already been answered, its easier to sort thru search results than flame.
[HTC Sensation] TechB74:
All guides say to start with Revolution. Then install Clocwork Recovery Mod to back up the device. Then install the su binaries. Since I unlocked officially can I skip the Revolution part?
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Yes, I'd say so :)
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
The difference with the official way is that you only unlock the bootloader. You don't get S-OFF so you can't make changes 'on the fly' with Android running, you'd need to do changes with the phone in HBOOT/fastboot mode.

Flashing custom ROMs works with either
[HTC Sensation] sszz:
Hello,

how did you unlock officially? I only found the revolutionary method. Thank you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djjonastybe:
I have a Samsung Galaxy Gio and when I turn on the display again to send a text message to my girlfriend everything feels very slow etc... Then after 3-4 seconds everything feels very snappy and stuff...

I have no special profiles set with setcpu...

Does anyone know what I can do?

Should I change the memory management settings? Or is the problem that the phone needs to jump from 128mhz to 800mhz. Maybe my phone responds slow because of the slow sampler speed?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otnos:
Do you have setcpu to throttle down your cpu when the screen turns off?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
You could try setting your scaling to "Performance".

---------- Post added at 03:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------

He did say that he doesn't have any special profiles set.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djjonastybe:
I tried this:

ondemand 148 - 800 = LAG[/B]

- throttleUp = 80

- powersavebias = 0

- ignore nice load = 0

performance 800 = ok

conservative 148 - 800 = ok

- throttleUp = 80

- throttleDown = 20

- Sampling rate = 200000us

- Ignore nice load = 0

So far conservative might be my best best... But the issue is that the stock firmware uses 248-800 ondemand by default... I have the lag on that setting as well... I am now testing conservative. I hope I am doing a good thing changing the governor.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
You have more lag on "on demand" because the system has to do a check everytime for the frequency. On "performance" the cpu stays at the max (which you allow) eliminating those checks and using time more wisely. Also, keeping it on "performance" also uses less battery life (in a way) compared to "on demand". Conservative will keep the cpu at its lowest, causing far greater lag. So your best bet, would be "performance".
[Motorola Triumph] abie09:
I was looking into buying a Moto Triumph and was wondering if after rooting if roaming was possible since Virgin Mobile says they don't have roaming. I am currently using HD2 HyperDroid. I have search and I have come up empty handed. If I am looking in the wrong place please send to the right place. Thanks in Advance
[Motorola Triumph] primetechv2:
As far as I can tell, it's not doable. Unless you explicitly figure out how to swap the Triumph into being a Sprint phone... there have been a few discussions on this but it's basically the carrier that's making it not roam.
[Motorola Triumph] abie09:
OK just thought it would be worth a look. Thanks
[Motorola Triumph] jvillejoe:
Tbh you don't really need to roam here in Florida where I live I get 1-3 bars of 3g where my hd2 and vibrant got 1-3 bars of edge. Not to mention when I go inside my house I lose all service with my Tmous phones unless I have my phone up to one of my windows. I don't have this problem with my mt at all. I have traveled to the most remote locations in a country area and at least got one bar of 3g with my mt where I did not get any service with my Tmous phones. For that reason I have canceled my service with Tmous and am now with virgin mobile and couldn't be happier.
[Motorola Triumph] jvillejoe:
Did I mention how much money I'm saving? If you ask me its worth every penny. I love being able to surf the web and make calls and not hold my phone by a window. People used to lauph at me and ask what I was doing. So glad I don't have to explain that anymore. I'm the one asking them that joking around now lol. If it wasn't for wifi calling I would have left Tmous long ago. Love Tmous customer service though. They will be missed...

[Omnia 7 General] mb706:
Two days ago, I downloaded the Device Update Support Tool 1.2 from the Official Samsumg site (Omnia 7, support --> software).

Currently I am running NoDo, not jailbroken etc.

Every time I go into download mode, and connect to the device update tool, it tells me there is a binary update available. Is this the patch they released to let Omnia 7 users update to NoDo? Is that why it tells me everytime I connect that there is a binary update available (since I already have NoDo, I didn't install any patch or something).

Share your thoughts!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
Is it good idea to completely shut off 3g when using 4g?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Beejis:
3g basically shuts down automatically once you connect to 4g, and will start right back up once you disconnect from 4g so it's best to just leave it on.

hello am i missing something out. Not had time to try out the stock media player on the sensation yet for long periods. But what i have found is this. If i play a track half way threw and stop close the media player next time i go back to media player the track starts from the start not the possion i left it. this is the same with videos too.

Is there something i need to check in a box ? or do i need a new app player for all media files ? if so whats best and free freee free.

I am currently running Warm TwoPointThree (nightly unreleased) on my 3D.

If I just USB tether it using the native sense app, it tells me I don't have that service with Sprint (which of course I don't) but it still tethers and works, but reverts to 3G only and 4G disconnects. I searched around some but most people Wifi tether and I use more USB tethering than I do Wifi (like hooking up my work desktop without a Wifi card in it etc.)
