[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
1-click root like Z4root isn't available for any phone with Gingerbread 2.3.4 and up.

Judging by some posts on various boards, it won't ever be available, since developers aren't working on any such solution.

You can read some entertaining read:

http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/...otloaders-rooting-manufacturers-carriers.html

And remember some things:

1) Since that time, Samsung and HTC has officially declared they aren't going to lock their bootloaders. Actually, Samsung kept it open all the way, and HTC declared they're going to unlock them starting this summer.

2) There was no easy root app for Gingerbread 2.3.4 ever made, even though an exploit exists that allows temp-rooting. Which means - there are no devs interested in making rooting easier than it currently is, or they're prevented from making rooting easier.

About devs not willing to make it stupid easy to root anymore - you might read Cyanogen's post somewhere, also from several months ago.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] invasion2:
Ok. I've researched, and found something called GingerBreak, but I don't really understand it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
Gingerbreak does NOT work with mytouch 4G 2.3.4.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
To restate what Jack_R1 said. There is no root for gingerbread on this phone. It's simple enough to revert back to 2.2.1 and root once you are there.

[in my words]

If you afraid of ADB and the SKD, and you are to lazy to do some research, you shouldn't be rooting your phone anyway.

[/in my words]

now i took the time to put all of the basic information that you'll need in the newcomers thread. Link in my signature. Take your time read though that and you can root your phone. Regardless of the version you are using. And there is a link, with video, for you setting up your ADB.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] invasion2:
Thank you all for replys. :D you can keep them coming if you wish.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] invasion2:
neidlinger, in your signature, it says how to root with root.sh. Is this a perm root or temp root? And is it compatible with 2.3.4? How would I unroot?

EDIT: read on xda that all i need to do is download the froyo rom, boot into recovery or hboot (sorry i forgot), and flash it? Am i correct?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
In my signatures are methods to root 2.2.x. If you should read my Newcomers thread there is a link for rooting 2.3.4 devices.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] invasion2:
Sorry...thank you for all your help. Can you confirm that my edit is correct? " Iread on xda that all i need to do is download the froyo rom, boot into recovery or hboot (sorry i forgot), and flash it? Am i correct?"
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
froyo rom... you mean the PD151IMG.zip? if it's that, then yes, boot into hboot, and flash.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] invasion2:
YES!! How do i get into hboot?

EDIT: sorry, a simple google fixed it. And all i do is flash it, then im on stock froyo and can do any root i want? Will all my contacts and apps be saved and stuff?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] invasion2:
Wait how do I flash a ROM from hboot? And afterwards, how do I get out of hboot? Sorry, I just want to be extremely sure I don't brick my phone or f**k it up in any possible way.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
well, once you have the PD151IMG.zip in the ROOT (not in any folders) of your sdcard, the bootloader/hboot should recognize it, and will ask you if you want to update. hit yes, and the rest will be done for you. DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY DURING THE UPDATE PROCESS, THIS WILL BRICK THE DEVICE. after that just reboot (first reboot should take longer than usual, it's normal)

if for some reason the bootloader/hboot isn't seeing your PD151IMG.zip, then redownload the zip again.

EDIT: I connected it to my computer, and the zip file is named PD15IMG and a lot of other things. Do I delete all of that and rename it PD15IMG.zip?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] invasion2:
I got as far as the gold bar filling up, but then it said main version is older, update failed. I just downloaded a new PD15IMG.zip
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
yes, delete the rest and name it PD151IMG.zip
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] invasion2:
I even deleted that old one abd redownloaded a new one. Neither worked..any suggestions?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Ok, I'll keep it short:

If you want to root and understand what you're doing - go to Glacier Wiki, section "Root", subsection "Gingerbread 2.3.4". It points you to a thread with the procedure to downgrade, which you need to execute completely. Read it and execute. It contains a step to hack the "main version" (misc version), that allows to flash older PD15IMG like you're trying. Without that step, it won't work.

If it looks too complicated for you - don't root.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Homunculus-:
Hey all,

The Sony PRS T1 is being released very soon, and there has been strong speculation that it is running a 'disguised' form of the android O.S. (I read, market place apps wont work till rooted) This post will then make the assumption these concepts are true.

For personal interest, in two months I am taking a long trip through Asia and am really wanted a rooted e-reader to have along: (better note taking, music programs, simple games, calculator/converters etc etc). I don't want a tablet because I need e-ink battery life to take me from one village to another.

I was going to buy the Barnes & Noble Simple Touch or the Entourage Edge, but I like its size and auxiliary jack on the Sony so that is the model that most interests me.

Naturally this question is frowned upon, especially since the device hasn't even been released to the public, so just as a general speculation, when comparing the rooting process of other devices in the past, is it realistic for the Sony PRS T1 to have been successfully rooted within that two month time frame before I take my trip, or is that most likely completely out of the question as it usually takes several months longer? Anyone know how long it took for the Nook Simple Touch to be rooted from its launch date?

An e-reader appears to run a much simpiler file system than a cell phone, so maybe it won't be too complicated? But at the same time, it is a Sony, so...:rolleyes:

Thanks for any estimations and/or flames :p

P.S. If this thread can be moved to the Sony PRS T1 sub category if one is made, that be great.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] manbeer:
I received a call before in a dark room and noticed that on the top by the front facing camera a tiny light was blinking red very dimly. I'm assuming it could be cause my battery is low but I was curious as I didn't know there was an led there and wondering what else its used for. If there was some way to implement a notification light I would be happy as its one of my biggest pet peeves with this phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
It's an IR LED - some people can see IR as dim red. It's the camera's proximity sensor (how the phone knows to turn the screen and touchscreen off when the phone is next to your face in a call.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tysj:
Noticed this as well. Seems to only come on during a call and you aren't on speaker phone. It would be cool to use it as a notification light, but it is a really dim red color.

[General Questions and Answers] crobs808:
My entire life I have been told that computers operate better in a colder room. I have been building, fixing, and using computers for nearly 30 years now but never have I questioned the scientific reasoning behind that rule before.

I do not doubt that it is true, but is the rule there just for overall hardware protection? Or does performance actually decrease as temperatures rise? If so, what is the actual science/physics behind the rule?

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] webscathe:
Hardware protection

Yes. Hardware protection. Too high of temperatures will damage the internal components, leading to system failure. It's not that cold = faster, inherently, but as heat dissipation is increased, the more performance can be packed into a CPU or GPU.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OriginalGabriel:
Go to settings, applications, manage applications and click on Market; delete Market cache and Market data and reboot. You'll have to reasign your Google account to the Market when you first launch it, and it'll take a minute or two to sync up but, it should fix it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nouch02:
I did that but it still stuck on downloading...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrx1983:
i had the same problem.

my market was version 2.3.4, and i think it was either to old or it was corrupted.

it not loaded the app pictures and the apps itself.

i tryed it now for some days with the cache deletion, but it doesn't really worked for me.

sometimes it worked for some seconds and then it had the same problems again.

the fix was pretty easy.

i downloaded the new market and installed it.

problems where gone, and i now have a nice new market.

here is the page where i downloaded the market.

http://www.arctablet.com/blog/archo...market-purchased-canceled-issue-on-archos-g9/

download the apk and install it with the astro file manager.

don't forget to enable "menu->settings->applications->unknown sources" before.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nouch02:
thank man i just install latest market and it still stuck on downloading i guess i have to do factory reset to solve this problem...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killj0y:
Mine does that when I have too little ram available...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tygern8r:
I've done all of those things and a few more (uninstalled all downloaded apps, cleared caches from all apps, uninstalled market updates, wiped cache partition, wiped dalvik cache, unmounted SD card) and then finally a factory reset and I still can't download anything from the market. So don't count on a factory reset fixing anything.

i have the same issue too nothing download in my market. i did the same you've done.. until one day i use different wifi network then my home wifi and the market download and installed app perfectly fine i don't know what the hell wrong with my wifi.. if you using wifi to download app try to use different wifi network ect.

Anyone who sent their Xoom in... did Moto reset it or not? Were you using stock or something custom?

I sent mine in stock, not encrypted. Got it back the same, just with LTE.
[Xoom General] Sully9663:
Same here.
[Xoom General] ocdtrekkie:
Cool. I'll retract my Google Account application-specific password my Xoom uses, and clear my Gmail cache, but I'm most terrified of having to re-do all my apps from various markets and such, and since I run stock, I can't backup app data like game progress and such.

I don't really need the LTE cuz I don't have a data plan on it anymore, but there's other features in the new build, and no word if and when Verizon will OTA that. And it would be nice to have it in there, given the word that my Bionic's SIMM will work directly in my Xoom if I need it to.

Job Discovery allows you to find Jobs of any simple to extensive search term in an extremely "dumbed" type interface. With GPS location enabled, it can easily detect the area you're in and search OR simply type a Zipcode of where you might wish to find jobs (maybe where you want to move).

Like the job, company and city/state the job is in? Click the job for instant Step-By-Step Voice (If enabled) and Text GPS Directions w/LIVE Traffic & Construction updates from your current location to the job of your choice. This allows you to easily Job Hunt for jobs in the area you may have just had an interview or plan your day and track the Job's on the Map and "Pin" them for easy 1-Click access.

With the extremely easy UI, anyone can find a job and with results displaying as fast as 2 seconds (May vary depending on Data Plan, Location, etc...), it takes the hours of research out of the way and the calling of each location (or printing a map) a thing of the past. A more graphical and more feature/customizable edition called Job Discovery II (Free too) will be released shortly for those who need even more specifics for results.

I appreciate your input, very helpful and will try and roll this update out ASAP as it may take a little time for the update to get accepted and don't want you to be out of a job too long :).

Remember if you have anything else you'd like to see, I hope you'd let me know as this App had one purpose, to find jobs and currently searches quite a bit of job sites but tries to narrow down and "rates" them, which you may sometimes see numbers before a job title/company as it thinks they are the best suited/available at the time.

Thanks,

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] returned4good:
I love the idea of this app. I'm curious; what database does it use for the job listings? Is it Monster or something like that?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] M.Alamgir:
Good job Men
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] lseidman:
It actually uses a "stream" of job sites, not just one in specific and which is why it kind of does it's own guessing of what's the best jobs to show. A total of now 38 sites when originally it was more than 50 exist now but a lot of sites have blocked the App/Cloud Server but that's ok.

When you search, you're actually sending an anonymous string to our cloud server which hosts a cURL/PHP file that does the actual work (sending the requests to the job sites as some job sites offer an API and will use it) and immediately parses it as it requests only specific parts (some are actually designed separately, especially if they are an API search provider and makes it easier to generate the content) and sends back to the App the converted Lat/Lon of the job location and takes either your exact GPS Lat/Lon or Zipcode and goes, well this and this are closer but they are possibly less relevant and that can be based off of the job title, job content, and also published date/time to determine what may really be the best in the end for you.

I hope that sort of answers your question? As for Monster, we do search them as well but EXTREMELY hard and we only do a max of 35-requests to them so that we don't get banned but all monster results are stored for 72 hours in a MySQL Database.

Thanks,

Lance

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] lseidman:
That is very nice of you to say, I appreciate it and glad JD was able to show you a job you didn't know existed.

Good news is another view of jobs has been in the works where you can swipe from Map View and List View which will have the job link to the actual company or job site that has the job but has been a little difficult as the sources vary but would this even be of any use to you?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] neoxphuse:
Tried it, but have to use it landscape? Also the GPS did not work for me, since I'm in Canada. Also, the popup advertisements are annoying. Anyway to get them just to stay at the bottom? Otherwise I can't say how good it is without seeing any jobs.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] returned4good:
Absolutely, it would. It would cut out the step of having to google the company and then find their employment link, which isn't always easy to find as I just found out with Winn Dixie. BTW, I dropped 3 applications so far. Let's see what happens. :cool:
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] lseidman:
At this specific time it accepts only US Postal Codes as it is digit-based and outside US, like Canada, can have alphanumerical (alphameric) and in Canada specific from what I was studying basically has 2 main parts... First part being "Forward Station Area" and second being the "Local Delivery Unit" and could be listed as H1G, 49,657 or H1G49657, which for the input I would need to scan for both possible formats but since the InputScope lastly was updated to strictly "Digits", making the letters impossible to input.

So we actually in our "prototype", I was speaking about with 2 views has an option in the very beginning, if you're non-US, you select that as it will allow all forms of input where the US is specific and allows only 5-Digits. Also some of the sources we use are strictly US job sites but once we saw some of them actual have multi-country job posting/listing we thought it was a good idea to help the other part of the world.

As for the Ad, it should randomly Popup and the reason for it's current placement is actually because people complained it was at the bottom right or bottom left and for some odd reason the top left seemed less intrusive to the 9 people who beta tested it. Also I have it randomly Popup only because I didn't want to make the map smaller to fit a stupid Ad and make it static which some Ad's can be nutty and be flashy and super annoying. This is why when you search for jobs it automatically centers and zoom-in on the location with the most jobs/in the area, but you probably can't see that if you can't see any jobs... Try typing in "89117" and see if it's still an issue to you and if so, let me know and we'll come up with something else.

Also the landscape-only is because the map is larger this way and easier to view as Portrait mode is and I can assure you much smaller and quite disappointing. When you have 20-30 job's Popup, a square box with tons of little "Markers" and text gets almost blurred and when you click an actual marker it launches the GPS feature, which is why in the Portrait mode people kept clicking the wrong one and we figured let's just have them hate us for this mode and not hate us cause they keep clicking the wrong job.

I will stop going on about the future updates but we haven't forgotten the other part of North America and our countries friends, which you will see soon, I promise :).
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] lseidman:
First, I am glad you find that would be something useful to you and apologize for you currently having to do manual labor as that wasn't really the goal of the App, to make you do anything really.

We didn't think ahead that people might not be driving around with a stack of Resumes and go to each store to drop them off. Later on and good feedback like yours, it shows people want to see even more about the Job/Pay/Hours/Misc. Items and maybe even not leave home and just Apply online as another way to Apply to Jobs, which is why we were just discussing maybe adding a "Send to..." option and can send it to Twitter or Email but figured Email might be better or to txt to a friend as it may be a bit overkill adding social media in the picture.

As far as your job applications, are these job applications due to this program itself? Like how you discovered the jobs? Either way, I hope you get one of the jobs!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] returned4good:
They sure are. In fact, in the "how did you find out about this job?" section, I put your WP7 app as the source. Oh yeah, one of the things that is really great about it that I didn't realize until now is that it provides job listings that you usually have to register with a site for and sign in every time. It's nice to check for jobs on a whim. Not to be gross, but that sure makes a trip to the can more productive. :p
