[HTC Sensation] dav08094194:
I know this might sound like a stupid thing to say but when the Galaxy Tab first came out i was impressed that it could do just about everything a tablet and phone could do in one package. And am looking into selling my Sensation to get one. The other reason to doing this is that my phone doesnt get any any signal where i live (Countryside) which i dont blame on the device at all, it more of a bummer :( all though my phones of the past where able to get goodish signal here. Are there any other tablet sized devices that have the function to text and possibly call like the original galaxy tab, and if so point me in the right direction. :)

IT WONT LEAVE ME ALONE!

Does anyone know if this is worth it at all? I dont have the voice search bug (i have MANY others).

Is there a way to stop this thing from asking me. I keep saying later but there is no "leave me the hell alone" button.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3rdcoast:
either do it or root it. I for one would never let a carrier push any update to *my* phone.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tevil:
thats the weird thing, i am rooted since day 1
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tevil:
...........
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tevil:
okay dont mean to keep bumping this but at least maybe someone else has taken the update already.

Im on stock rooted 2.3.4

My phone is trying to go 2.3.6

I currently have no interest in this and as of 10pm tonight i am leaving on vaca for 4 days. directly after work (3pm) i am going to dmv where i will prob rot for about 3 hours.

My main question is at least this. If i just take the update to stop the constant nagging its doing to me (like i am doing to this forum right now) will i lose my root? I CANT lose root right now because without tethering I will be FORCED to actually talk with my girlfreind while away instead of tethering her phone and letting her play on the web. This to me is like having my nuts squeezed in a vice!

If I take the update and my phone screws up I will have NO time to redo it until I get back. If it wasnt of this kind of importance I would have already tried the update and just restored if it didnt work. I have an image of my phone in CMR BUUUUUUUUUUUUT I have had CMR break down on me before trying to restore and cant risk it. Dont want to have to press later for 4 days lol.

Thanks

If you are on stock rooted do yourself a favor and flash stock rooted of 2.3.6 and be done with it. Don't update via ota.

Is there a 2.3.6 rooted update file or do i have to start from scratch? Im hesitant to try and CMR a new version and have issues right before i go away. I guess Im stuck with the nagger for 4 days....... :mad:
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
I am trying to see if ROMs that are FC'ing on the new Market or Google Voice update are missing a file that may have been removed as bloat. So if anyone is running a GB leak ROM or just stock deodexed and your market updated to 3.1.5 and still works please let me know which so I can run a comparison. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socos25:
I would like to know the answer to this myself. I've tried many of the GB roms. I like the additional bells & whistles GB provides, but still like the battery life and responsiveness of SRF 1.2.

If I could get a GB ROM that didn't reboot all the time I would feel better.

I went into the sprint store yesterday and was enlightened to the fact that premier service has been abolished as of last week, no more yearly upgradeds they goin to every 22 months:-(
[Epic 4G General] bickman2k:
Actually, I believe it was 22 months (or is for your next upgrade), then is going to 20 months.
[Epic 4G General] gtuansdiamm:
I think i still get 1 more 1 year upgrade
[Epic 4G General] R3537L1F3:
I believe if your yearly upgrade is before october you get your yearly upgrade. Everyone else gets bumped on to the 20 month cycle. My next $150 upgrade is november my last one was Feburary so I think I got the 20 months now. However I believe everyone gets one last $75 upgrade. I get mines in January so year we should get that

Here's how it was explained to me; Existing Gold members who have an upgrade date before Oct. 2 can update b/t now and then and receive a second yearly update that expires 12/31/12. Silver members are basically SOL unless you are very close to your 10 year anniversary in which exceptions are being made as that was the case for me. No one can go from Silver to Gold after 10/2.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
With the timing of the cutoff it really seems like this is a way of not letting people upgrade iphones every year.esp with the doubled etf. We might have been better off with no iphone
[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
We are better off without the iPhone, now the Vision upgrade will become more like required mainainance than an improved network....
[Epic 4G General] R3537L1F3:
That's the big downside with iphones. To upgrade software you must also get new hardware. I only had 3 years to go to get gold. I was even gonna switch to the 99.99 plan to have gold but oh well. All good things must come to an end.

[HD2 General] adempozhari:
is there any way to unlock hd2 simlock for free...like flashing or whatever?

if not where in the hardware is "simlock" stored?

I can change the part because i have an second unlocked HD2 with broken screen.
[HD2 General] Cenobite_:
Why don't you just swap the screens?
[HD2 General] Mister B:
Mainboard, like suggested screen swap to device with busted screen would have a working unlocked device assuming busted screen device is sim unlocked & both devices are compatible HD2 models for donor repair.

Personally I would grab an IMEI unlock code as they are very cheap these days & you can recover this & profit by selling parts from broken device.

Remember too that dismantling HD2 is not the easiest so swapping parts could leave you with 2 dead HD2's :-P
[HD2 General] adempozhari:
hmmm...

second hd2 is hard used and i aldy changed the digitizer once... :P

i think buying the unlock code is the easiest way...

Thank You for answering
[HD2 General] adempozhari:
what about this trick?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1232107
[HD2 General] Mister B:
Nope that's on Android, HD2 can only be unlock when running on a Windows ROM ...

Get a code for less than 10bucks & it's safe & simple.

Recoup costs & some profit by selling mainboard & other parts from busted HD2, you'll be happy & so will others with second-hand parts to fix there busted HD2's :-D
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Mister B is right, you have to use Windows Mobile to SIM unlock the HD2. this is because the SIM lock is part of the IPL, or atleast I think it is the IPL maybe the SPL. Anyway Windows Mobile is the only OS that can communicate with the IPL or SPL of the original bootloader of the HD2. There for it is the only OS that you can use to SIM unlock the HD2.
[HD2 General] jotekman:
Yeah, go for the code. It's how I did mine. No fuss, no problems, 20 dollars (at the time) and I got it in less than 10 minutes. Worked first time. Be careful though. Input the wrong code too many times and I think it permanently hardlocks. Could be wrong, but it's what I read at the time.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kr3i0s:
After a marathon 3 hours I am finally on Mango according to the Zune Update but I am still unlocked and am able to sideload apps.

There are a few observations I have made though.

1. I cannot add hidden wifi networks which I was able to do when I had installed the HTC Shipped Rom for HTC 7 Pro T7576.

2. The firmware version has not changed not has the SPL which changed when the HTC Shipped Rom was installed.

So do I have Mango or not? I am confused. Please help
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhilaksh:
hi,

if you installed the shipped rom, then you've basically just reinstalled it in this update. there should be not many changes except a refresh of the registry. if you were previously unlocked, then the updater took that into account, and rewrote the value (this is the kind of stuff it does in the "preparing update" stage). after that, it just rewrote everything. which is not bad.

if you want to get hidden wifi back, just use provxml to rewrite the reg values to show the menu.

enjoy mango. (and try the connected media app, it should work).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kr3i0s:
I have rolled back to prenodo(7.0.7004) and then updated through Zune to 7.0.7008, 7.0.7403 and finally to Mango but while updating to Mango the Zune's update screen was showing Mango ISV Beta(7720). When i was in 7004 , i used chevron unlock and the ansars xap to keep the unlock going through the updates. One more observation i have is i don't have the Facebook chat as well in the messaging section

Hey guys!

I recently installed Galaxy on Fire 2 and Destroy Gunners SP(dunno if that's the right game, similar to Armored Core) and they rock on the O2X. Do you guys have any suggestions for similar games? No Gameloft games, got frustrated on NOVA2 because controls are really messed up, for 3 days I tried it on my cousin's phone and I can't get used to it hahaha :D Space sims or mecha games are welcome!

Today I was just playing with settings menu--> About Phone and accidentally something wierd Looking picture opened on screen . I was rather surprised to see that photo popping up into the setting menu.

So I again started touching screen here and there and finally got the method of opening that picture.

Here is the method :

Open Setting menu and then navigate to ABOUT PHONE menu .

Then go to the MOD VERSION . Now touch the screen rapidly , violently and spontaneously where it shows MiniCM7 2.1.1 [ 5-6 times tapping] and then the photo will appear . Photo will look as attached below !

I dont know if it works for you but please try and report here !

Doesn't matter where it came from... The fact is, it wasn't available to us before... And now we are getting it.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
Really? I love getting iPhone ports.

iPhone has a lot of great games, but iOS in general is too limited for them to be fully recognized. Porting iPhone games to Android removes everything that makes them limited... especially considering the Xperia PLAY - which has single-handedly changed the tides of smartphone gaming being un-ideal without buttons.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
Quick ports for quick buck tend to be subpar, no matter how good the source material is. That's why I'm wary.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
Maybe Tomb Raider, Square Enix as a brand and mindless shoot'em up games stopped being cool in the neighborhood of 2000? I bought this phone because it allows me to emulate good older games, I don't give jack **** about 99% of the "new" games (mostly poor iPhone ports or glorified casual game divertimentos ). There are still no RPG worth their salt, no absorbing plots and no strategic games. Hell, I would fawn over a Final Fantasy Tactics port even, or Crystal Chronicles...

If you want to see me hyped, bring me weird or innovative games: Katherine, Hyperdymension Neptunia, Super Magnetic Neo... I've been holding console pads for almost 20 years, and I have witnessed how companies quit the innovation race long ago.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
Tomb raider is far from a mindless shooter. Just like resident evil series, over the years the need to draw more "Casual gamers" into the series has forced the developers to tone down it's puzzle solving aspects. And as for Square not being cool anymore 2 words ..... Deus Ex :D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Auxilium:
Deus Ex, Batman Arkum Asylum/City (Square Enix owns Eidos), Square Enix still makes great games.

[Acer Iconia A500] VitaZora:
Like many of you, I am not rushing to update to 3.2. Not until we get root, anyway.

Instead, I decided to try a couple of the Acer Iconia ROMs available from Tabletroms.com.

I am currently running Virtuous Galaxy 1.0.6 - and I am liking it very much. One of the things I didn't enjoy about version 1.0.5 is that I was never able to pair and use a bluetooth keyboard with it. That is no longer a problem with 1.0.6. Not only that, Netflix just works. No modifications needed. Front and back cameras work as well as the rear camcorder.

I've also noticed superior battery life with this ROM. Yesterday I used it for about 4 hours straight with both wifi and bluetooth enabled, keyboard paired, etc and only had about 25% battery loss. Since that time, I have used it intermittently and this morning - 24 hours later - the battery is at 60%.

The only real bug I have noticed is with shutdown. Long pressing the power button immediately shuts it down, no shut down menu. But after the last buzz, the screen remains back lit. So I have to hold the power button down until the tablet is completely powered down. A work around is to use LiGux Tools as the shutdown tool.

There is also a 1.0.7 version which I have not tried - the initial welcome screen is in Russian. But from there you can change it to the language of your choice.

Falcon Galaxy is another nice ROM - it's basically a combo of Acer stock along with the Samsung Touchwiz interface.

[Acer Iconia A500] Johnny0906:
Roooooooooooooooooooooooooot
[Acer Iconia A500] BrianDigital:
Any rom even official from Acer. Will do that when holding the power button its a soft reset.....
[Acer Iconia A500] VitaZora:
I believe you may have misunderstood. The power down sequence never offered up a shutdown confirmation window. Short press put it to sleep. Long press should bring up the shutdown window. In this case that never happened. I could only power down by holding the power button until it completely shut down - or use a shut down widget.

I've moved onto Primee p9-5a, so the problem is long gone.
[Acer Iconia A500] sw6lee:
Nononononoo

Nonononoo

It WILL shut down completely if you wait. I tried this ROM, and I know it shuts down, and I know what you are talking about. Try turning off all the lights and in the dark, turn the tablet off, then black backlit is still on. Wait for maybe 20 seconds (not really sure, I haven't measured it..), or at most 40 seconds. The black lit will be off too. Then you can turn on again normally.

I think Samsung made it like that to make people believe that the tablet turns off right away, instead of like other tablets or phones, waiting for everything to finish up and turn off. But actually, they don't turn off that fast either, because the back lit is still on, and still processing until the tablet completely shuts down.

I love the Virtuous Galaxy Rom too, and I really hope fguy can make one with Acer's Android 3.2, and the Touchwiz from Samsung, just like Falcon Galaxy, but with Android 3.2, not 3.1.
[Acer Iconia A500] VitaZora:
Thanks for clarifying. Ligux Shut down tool is a good alternative though. It provides a full set of shut down options including reboot into recovery.
