[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richardkornman:
QUES-1:

I go to Jamaica for a month at a time. The only Provider there is Digicell and AND it is a 4g/LTE network is . I am Using Verizon with my rooted Thunderbolt. I want to continue using my thunderbolt capabilities, Google voice, GV#,contacts etc. How can I switch between LTE networks. Currently I must use a Digicell phone that I reload for each visit.

Current Phone SYS:

ROM = SHIFTS3NS3 V1.5x

My current Radios' are from From the 1.70.605.0 RUU CDMA: 1.39.00.0627 however on phone is says 627r

AND

LTE: 0.01.69.0625 however on phone is says 625r

QUESTION-2:

I tried Installing the following Radios:

CDMA radio from the 2.11.605.0 RUU = CDMA:*1.48.00.0817

LTE radio from the 2.10.605.1 RUU = LTE:*0.01.78.0802

after upgrading from SHIFTS3NS3 V1.4 to SHIFTS3NS3 V1.5x

I duplicated the Same Procedure AS I used installing ROM SHIFTS3NS3 V1.5x -

when I installed the radios:

In Rom Manager

1: Nandroid Backup

Re boot into recovery:

2. Clear-

data,cache - pg 1

davik cache - pg 2

3. Next sub directory Mounts & Storage:

Format/System

4. Reboot into Recovery

5. click install zip from SD card

6. click choose from sdcard CDMA 1st PG05IMG.zip. ( go to wherever you placed the radio that you downloaded and click it)

Reboot & Repeat

7-12 again for LTE Radio

Since I used Rom Manager I figured the following was outdated -

E. To install the radio, after flashing in the rom, i do a battery pull and then press volume down and power at the same time. This will bring you into hboot. Select yes to upgrade and then reboot.

PROBLEM:

I ALWAYS GET THAT PROCEDURE IS ABORTED after a couple minute attempt.

What am I doing wrong. The ROM works great. And the radios work great.

Except they now have an "r" at the end ... 627r & 625r.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JBO1018:
You don't install PG05IMG.zip files in Clockwork recovery. You make sure it is named PG05IMG.zip exactly. Put it on the root of your sdcard. (not in any folders) Then shut the phone all the way down. Hold volume down plus power until the hboot/bootloader screen appears, and it should automatically find the file. Follow the on screen instructions to update.

Oh and as for using the phone in Jamaica: I highly doubt it.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Absolute_Zero:
Correct procedure. Wrong assumption. It says in the Q/A at the top how to install radios. They are not installed using recovery. They are flashed in the bootloader as stated.

If both service providers use 4g LTE network then why can't I exchange sim card and if necessary tweak the lte radio. Similar to jail-breaking iPhone for use on other cdma networks besides at&t??
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolimitzr2:
Because the jamaican carrier is using a different band most likely, the thunderbolt is not a global phone. Even in the usa Verizon uses the 747-787mhz range for LTE and ATT will be using 704-746mhz range.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
For now at least. Eventually phone makers will get tired of making multiple parts for LTE and make one that supports all the bands, like they currently do for CDMA phones and for the phones using the older GSM standard. Doubt it will happen until carriers start switching over to voice for LTE as well or Google pushes for a nexus that works on all the networks running LTE.

I just installed Rom Manger. I want to do a Nandroid backup before I do any ROM flashing in the future, long future. Do I have to have ClockworksMod installed to do a Nandroid backup?

Is it a risky thing to install or "flash" ClockworksMod without having a Nandroid backup?

Sorry if this question is asked too much. I am just being VERY careful about doing anything without a Nandroid backup yet. I couldn't find anything related to my question.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
You need a custom recovery to do a nandroid backup.

I would recommend however you use one of the older CWM version or Amon Ra.

The CWM version 3.x and up have been known to mess up your SD-EXT.

If your not running SD-EXT don't worry about the later part of this post.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgnationrc:
soo I need to have CWM? I guess this is more of a confirmation question. Is there big risk in installing or "flashing" CWM onto my phone? Or is that low risk and necessary?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
No big risk, ROM manager make it easy.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ameenor:
well this is just the part i dont understand about android.. why would a backup need a custom recovery? i meant it is just a backup.. i think all android stock ROM should come in stock with the same kind of custom recovery that permits nandroid backup.. it would be much easier that way dont you think?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgnationrc:
Ok, did it, no problem. I'll let you know how the back up goes. Is there a big risk in that?

Sorry if I seem paranoid, I just don't want a $640 brick. I can get one off the sidewalk where I live for free!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirk:
It's perfectly safe to do a nandroid backup. The reason it's not a feature of stock software is that it requires Root access, and handset makers don't want us end users to have that much control over our devices.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgnationrc:
Just did it, no problem. Off topic, why don't the companies want use to be able to fully control our devices? Microsoft has no problem with it with their products.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukey-windy:
Hi guys,

Today I accidentally knocked the side of my 2week old Desire which has just got out of the HTC repair centre after 7 weeks!!! The knock caused the metal surrounding the screen to pop away from the fascia and become bent. I decided to remove it in an attempt to bend it back into shape and then out it back on, however this only made it worse as it I ended up bending it all out of shape/

What I need to buy is the metal part of the front case. It is simply clipped into place however I cannot find it anywhere. I thought about buying a dummy phone and taking it from that.

Please throw your ideas and suggestions at me.

How much free ram memory xperia mini have ?

And does it have 512mb total ram or something like 418mb ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] panamamike:
Story is the Xperia has 512M of RAM, but 177M or so of RAM are taken up by the O/S. Leaving something along the lines of 335M free for other apps.

I don't know why all the programs that report memory don't show the memory reserved by the O/S.

Would be interested in knowing if such an app exists.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] panamamike:
That's the theoretical amount of memory, when I run max kill, I end up with 191MB.

If you go by the utilities they show you total memory its 335mb

Mike
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] GuestK00135:
ok, than it have 355mb ram :( not 512mb :( is 191mb of ram enought to run hd games ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] acb123:
It's truly 512MB RAM, but the operating system (Android) also occupies RAM, for example in panamamike's case, the OS uses 191MB for its running so the amount of RAM left for other programs is about 512 - 191 = 355MB RAM.

I haven't tried any HD games but you can watch these videos :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wNx6ZnUgvM
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] panamamike:
Actually, the math goes like this.

512MB total - 177MB [Hidden by Android for system] - (166-170MB) [Android O/S apps] 22MB [Kernel] approx 143MB available to the user. Max Kill, kills some of the Android O/S stuff, but it starts right back up automatically. I don't know enough to determine if I can really turn some of that stuff off, but ATM I'm just letting it go.

Also note, if we could root the phone, there are applications that SE has installed as part of the O/S that could be removed to free up more memory.

It's a bit disheartening to see such little memory truly available. I don't know what typical HD games need to run.

Mike
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] GuestK00135:
i don't understand, if system hide 177mb ram for system, why he(system) double use ram memory ? 1. 177mb and 2. 166-177mb(for os and apps) why ?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oclock:
Hi,

i am from germany and bought my tab in canada a few days ago. I was a few times at best buy, before I decided to buy it. In the shop I bended, folded and assaulted the demo device like hell. I did not hear any clicking noise or saw other strange things happen.

Now back in germany, I found the time to play with my device and found the following problems (in Canada I just took it out of the box to verify that it is not a DOA):

* When I grab the tab with my left hand on the left side and with the right hand the right side and apply slightly (!) pressure in contrariwise direction, then I hear a noticeable clicking noise in the top left corner (although I am not 100% sure that it is from there, but for sure on the left side somewhere).

* There is a very tiny little black spot/dust/dirt between screen and glass (or between glass and coating?). If I slighty push with a finger at this point then it look like there is a bubble or fluid around this spot. It is hardly noticeable during normal work, but I am worried if it has side effects in the future.

I could live with the latter, but the former makes me crazy.

As samsung is currently not allowed to sell the tab in germany, I can not find any warranty information on the german website. Do you know if Samsung offers in general international warranty so that I can send it in for repair in germany?

Any other adice? Maybe a DIY repair for the clicking noise?

Best wishes,

Klaus

Honestly, as an electrical engineer, I can't fathom how my issue could progress to something worse after looking at a disassembly. Maybe one day I'll take it apart and fix it, but it's not a high priority. I'd classify it as a cosmetic flaw.

So,

My friend (Simon), recently acquired a Dell Precision Series computer/micro server tower.

Inside, it has 2 Intel® Xeon® X5472 quad-core processors running at 3.00ghz

My other friend (Josh) said to Simon, in his apparent jealousy, that even though Simon essentially has 8 cores, they are %&$# because they are VIRTUAL cores and not physical cores.

I scouted the Intel website and found this model processor and clearly states that within each processor, "Number of cores: 4. Number of threads: 4"

I am not familiar with threads but I am aware that hyper-threading is essentially creating virtual cores.

So the question is:

Is he using 8 virtual cores or merely 8 physical cores

If you can answer this, could you please tell me your reasoning if you have one?
