I agree. You should have sought help here before returning to Verizon. You could have recovered your device. Its people like you that are driving up the price smart phones and making carriers and manufacturers lock down the phone. You get into doing stuff you don't know about and then when you screw up you make someone else eat the cost of your mistake. Thanks for bringing this to our attention but, most people know not to try and load custom software to a locked bootloader and stock recovery. Genius.

Hmm well.... you must be one of thoze google advocating yuppies falling in line like all the other little lemmings out there not giving two $#1ts about your privacy or the fact that all your searches are archived and filed kindly and neatly under peoples desks YOU DONT KNOW and disseminated to other corporates for a proffit... not to mention profiling... sorry friends but im a free citizen in this B30tch and i have the right to do whatever the F i feel like with MY phone that i pay for insurance on, and ridiculous fees for other BS the ITU deems necesary that we pay for... I absolutely love the fact that u think i drove up the price of this smart phone by tinkering with it.... ya take a statistics class then go take a look at verizons market cap and while ur at it take a look at google and motorola. These companies are, no kidding arround, ruining america. So u guys do what u like and join that good ol trendy movement. I on the other hand believe in my rights and privacy.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ind3p3nd3nt:
You knowingly voided your warranty and then fraudulently used said warranty. You're a rationalizing ****. End of story. It's not even about cost or running a good thing, you just have no dignity.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tallnerd1985:
You still are an idiot for screwing up your phone and not knowing how to fix it. Regardless if we are google sheep, you are part of the reason why you are ruining it for the rest of us.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] frenetic:
I hope they end up charging you retail price for the replacement phone they gave you. By purchasing that phone and doing what you did, you voided your warranty. It was repairable by other means, but you acted without thinking and returned a bricked phone (your own fault) to Verizon for a working phone, so you could attempt to **** it up like the last one. Stay away from XDA, you make us look bad.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] idefiler6:
So, did you pay a deductible or was the exchange free?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] johnlgalt:
I'm not going to resort to name calling, nor will I wish any bad luck upon you, OP.

I will, however, ask you this: If you knew enough to come here to post, then why didn't you know enough to look in the subforum two below this one titled Droid Bionic Android Development, and specifically at this post which is hovering in the top 5 or so responded to posts - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1262540

I mean, reading the first post provides you with a link to http://briefmobile.com/droid-bionic-receives-fastboot-recovery-files which tells you in no terms that this is a good potential fix for

The reason everyone here is attacking you is that you, who want to call us

- when you yourself explicitly stated that

- Well, last I checked, the Moto DROID original (I bought one on drop day back in Nov 2009, so I do have a little history with this device of my own) is also a Google Android device.

The reason everyone is getting angry with you is that you basically committed insurance fraud this way, and on top of that, you posted back as if you are entitled to commit said fraud. Those are the facts, and thus everyone is calling you names.

IMO, what you did was wrong, and lawfully, you should be prosecuted. But that is neither here nor there. If the VZW analysts . Moto analysts find enough evidence they may decide to do something - they may not. Who knows?

Next time, look around - this is a developer community, after all, and chances are you really haven't bricked your phone. These guys and gals eat, sleep, and breathe Android.

And they do it well.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] edw00rd:
"rationalised ****" lol OMG am i ever!!! I will own that!

Some of you actually make sense with the link between me and my "asshattery" and returning my droid. But most of you want to call names and well friends i was just honestly trying to help a community out with what i had suffered through. Ignorantly i have offended you... which was never intended. I assumed that most people are curious cats like myself. And for all of your info so i can put an end to this insurance fraud bs i bought the phone full price and got my second phone at an upgrade cost (had to use my wifes upgrade).... Not free. Hence the sad face in my first post. So all this prosecution crap... no. Voided warranty... yep! And knowingly so... Now some of you are going to retaliate "youre stupid for screwing up your phone and not check online to fix it" well short answer to that is i did check and was unable to find a cure and given some time i probably would have... but well the easy way to say this is hacking is an expensive hobby if it wasnt my phone itd be my comps processor for overclocking it too much (which ive done a number of times)... oh and someone posted about most people know not to try this on an encrypted bootloader... honest to god i didnt think it would effect it at all due to the fact that all i was doing was trying to boot an ARM image off an sd card... and have yet to find why that had any effect on the boot... Oh and another thing this was my very first post here... telling me to leave you guys alone cuz i make you look bad... that hurt :-(

Lol no not really... I love all of you xo...

[Motorola Droid Bionic] clem11388:
The level of hypocracy and irony in this thread is astounding

This post started out about putting Ubuntu on a device. An operating system founded on community and sharing with open arms and friendliness. And the person who was attempting it was met with NOTHING but hate and persecution for how he went about resolving a very stressful and worry some situation.

Just cause someone does not handle a situation the way you see that they should, does not give you the right to throw insult after insult at them. Even if there is already a "hate filled band wagon" rolling by. In this community of developers who are presumably good hearted people, why is it not one person stepped up to make this into a real development thread???

I am not a developer and can barely write one line of code in Python. So I wouldn't be able to lend a hand. But as I am on the look out for a completely open device on the Verizon network, I am very interested in being able to put other operating systems on a phone. Especially as Ubuntu will be developing a dedicated phone OS in the next 2 years to go along with their computer and (soon to come) Smart TV OS line up.

Does anyone know of a thread that is honestly trying to get a Verizon phone unlocked to run other OS's?? This one is clearly resided to nothing but childish batter and remarks.

Good on the original poster for trying to keep his cool for the most part though.

**Edit: He did not commit insurance fraud, as I have paid fro the same insurance before and it specifically states that you will be guaranteed a new phone no matter what the issue. Even if it was your fault. It is justified by having to pay for it when you buy the phone, as well and needing to pay a deductible to receive a new phone. I actually put my D1 under the wheel of a car just to get a new phone. Cause I waited too long to learn about rooting and Verizon did an update that blocked root access. And the phone was getting to be sooo slow no matter how few processes I had running or few apps I had installed, that I couldn't take it anymore. Sometimes it would take 3 to 4 seconds just to move left or right on the home screen. I paid 50 dollars and got a Droid 2 Global as a replacement and rooted it with Z4 within 1 hour of getting the phone. Overclocked and tethered it within the first day. The only gripe I have with it is you can't put real custom Roms with custom kernels on this "Global" version cause the boot loader is still locked. Hence why I will not buy another phone that can not have the bootloader unlocked at all.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] denpth:
im pretty sure he didnt use the insurance but the warranty rather, insurance you pay for and pay when you get a replacement. I dont think he paid a dime after bricking his phone. that is where everyone is like wtf?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] fgibson39:
I did this as well.

I also tried to install ARM Ubuntu on my Bionic. It failed to install. I have not rebooted yet, do you have any suggestions that will save my device? I usually would have backed up the device, but I was so excited about Ubuntu that I forgot fo do so. I'm running .893, rooted (obviously). The only backup I have is from becore I rooted. Thanks.

[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
What specific GPS problem does this fix?

What this tweak is doing, for anyone interested, is laying down working files on the system then overlaying CM7 (which lacks something useful to GPS apparently) on top of the ARHD system, without deleting the files from ARHD that CM7 lacks.
[HTC Sensation] funkpod:
the gps on my droid incredible works like, pretty well, except that it doesn't seem to ping the towers or whatever at the normal intervals. does this fix that?
[EVO 4G General] Indirect:
Well, I just found out that after doing S-on after I used revolutionary to acquire s-off and restoring my nand backup of a different rom *I already knew this would work and the one variable that changed was the custom kernel rather than a stock one like I restored from before.

It decided to not even boot past splash screen meaning that the custom kernel while S-on was wanting to be a jerk and not allow any information to be passed aside from "No, I will not boot up" so I had to use my nand backup of stock. I already just decided to run revolutionary for about the 10th time on this phone since I had to take it to sprint last night and had to unroot. (S-on followed by restoring my nand backup of a completely stock phone (I have RA installed :cool: )

Just figured I would share with you guys, you can have s-on and still have a custom recovery installed and even a custom rom but just be sure you have a stock backup with the stock kernel and your other rom's backup has a stock kernel.

I could switch between MikG and stock like it was nothing when using the stock kernel but then I tried it with the custom one and I'm just glad I had my spare memory card with all my backups otherwise I would have been screwed for a few hours! :p

Hello i bought the case made brushed metal.

Its a perfect case and beautifull.

But now i got indoors no gps anymore.

When i disarm the case the gps is back.

I didnt tried it outside yet.

But the aluminium back from the case is blocking the gps sensor.

A pitty because its a nice case

[Galaxy S II Accessories] meno69:
I believe the fact you are indoors might be an issue with connecting to GPS satellites :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] john291:
But when i indoor remove the case its okay again.

Tommorow i will test it outside
[Galaxy S II Accessories] punshkin:
this is pretty obvious.

putting your phone into a case is similar to beeing indoors (except with much thinner walls)

whereas plastic, cloth or leather are more transparent for signal/waves metal is pretty solid so the combination ob a metal case AND indoors is much likely too much shielding for the antenna.

the metal case might also give you worse overall resception

i hope this helps to clear your sight :)

You can't see it as no custom ROMs on the Sensation use EXT partitions. We already have 1GB internal space

[HTC Sensation] DaneV:
Generally my sensation has a decent reception. Most of the times i`m able to get a decent 3G/HSDPA signal without any problems.

The problem is, that I live outside the city and at home my (3G) reception sucks. My Sensation seems to suffer from this poor reception a lot more then my previous Desire-Z.

The 2G connection is fine. When the phone switches to 3G however, I only get one bar and the connection frequently drops so that I have no service at all. When i set the phone to only use 2G, the connection stays stable and since I have wifi, having only GPRS at home is no problem.

I don`t want to leave my phone on 2G only because when i`m not home, the 3G connection is usually fine. I was wondering if there is a way to manually change the 2g/3g switching treshold so the phone will only switch when it has a decent 3G signal. I tried to set GSM Auto (PRL) at the #*#4636#*#* menu, but this doesn`t do the trick.

Thanks :)

But there is a possibility with Tasker

[HTC Sensation] a4ol:
I used tasker to achieve this, when it notices my wifi ssid, it switches off 3g. The down side is that wifi needs to be on ask the time. You could also use "show and switch 2g/3g" from the market, with this APp you can switch with one button or use a schedule.

Hey guys,

So I rooted my device a while back. I honestly don't remember what I did.

Could it be that I changed a modem / radio firmware or something of that sort? I'm asking because it feels to me as if my 3G connection is very unstable, and while my friends can watch youtube vids when we're driving mine will not connect.

What should i do if this is the case? Do I just need to replace it with another modem firmware?

[Galaxy S II General] The Compiler:
Hi,

I've found a weird bug in some of the kernels: When using WiFi tethering, using ssh via WiFi tethering (to a server on the internet, not the phone) is not possible.

ssh with Connectbot on the phone itself works fine.

Trying to find what's causing this bug I experienced in several roms, I flashed some kernels to see what would happen. That's the result so far:

se.infra@SEI1S KH3 (not sure what that IS exactly, came with LeoMar ROM) - Doesn't work

ninphetamine 2.0.6 - Doesn't work

ninphetamine 2.1.3 - Doesn't work

RAGEmod U1-v1.1 - works

ninphetamine 2.0.2 - works

I'd say it's a bug in Samsungs Update2 which is causing this, but I can't be sure yet. Could you please test your kernel to see if it works for you, and report it to the thread?

I've set up an account for testing purposes:

ssh xda@the-compiler.org

Password: weloveandroid

If you see

after logging in, it works.

If it just hangs after typing in the password, it's broken.

Please report if it works, your kernel, and the ssh version you used (ssh -V). Windows users, please test it using PuTTY.

Maybe this helps seeing where the problem comes from, and then I'll go and read sourcecode.... Anyone who wants to help is more than welcome.
