Unluss you've flashed a none rooted ROM, you shouldn't need to Root it again. Try to plug and "ASK for Root permissions" in flashtools. at anyrate if you look at the flashtools menu, all you need is there for root, JIT and xrecovery.:D

ALSO, Never EVER update the busybox, it's just gonna cause you grief. at any rate, the most updated busybox is included with a rooted Custom ROM.

BUT, if you really have to, be sure to wipe cache and Dalvik and set permissions in recovery.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codfreak:
He flashed original 2.1 again, so he has to root if he wants to install a custom ROM again.

@syuk84:

Use SOC 1.7, and do the following:

Start the program.

Click root, but don´t plug the phone yet.

Wait until it says "waiting for device", and then plug the phone with enabled USB Debugging.

That´s it.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syuk84:
i try already but after plug the phone SOC became not responding (hang)... huhuhu
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viper001:
Most stock kernels avail for flash are already rooted. That's why i asked him to "ask permission" in flashtools. To check for root.

Besides, he's already flashing with Flashtools. Why would he need to use SOC? the root button is right there.

Which phone would you choose?

The one(s) I'm really interested in is:

1. Samsung Epic 4g Touch

2. Motorola Photon 4g

3. Nexus S 4g

Just would like to get some opinions on these or whatever you all think?
[Networking] larry2513:
Looking at the photon myself....next week is upgrade time, and not interested in any Samsung products....

And from everthing I've read the nexus radio sucks...
[Networking] fortinj1354:
I've got the photon (had it for about 6 weeks) and can say that it's a great phone. Runs smooth as butter. The only issue i've had was some overheating, but that was my fault and not a hardware or OS issue.

If I had the option of switching, I would turn it down and stay with the photon.
[Networking] tooter1:
I'm leaning more toward the Photon but, the Epic is close.

The manager told me that the Photon is better suited for the network expansion Sprint is planning on.
[Networking] blues2009:
I've had the photon and now epic touch 4g, and they are both great phones on their own respect.

The photon has better cell reception than the epic and has great call quality. The epic is ok, just not photon quality. If you do alot of multitasking and web browsing the epic is blazing fast and you won't experience no lag whatsoever. The photon is a great phone but when multitasking it became a little laggy, but not a deal breaker. As far as screen resolution, imo the epic edges out the photon. Even though the photon has better resolution the epic just looks better. I don't know how this was achieved but the super amoled+ is nice.

Build quality the photon was nice and felt good in hand. the epic is nice and I really like the slim proflle. It is a huge screen but I like it, since I have big hands its not hard to handle. Either way both phones are great and won't be disappointed with which one you decide go with.
[Networking] Overstew:
Epic Touch is a monster phone. I've become attached to Samsung since the original Epic 4G due to the Super Amoled screen. You just can't get enough of it.
[Networking] tooter1:
Still haven't made up my mind on which one to get. Why does it have to be so difficult! :):confused::)
[Networking] Chandelure:
If you want android, it's the (possible) Nexus Prime.

But I'm lusting after the HTC Arrive. I had one for a week and I loved it.
[Networking] dw3bb10:
Get the best of the best. Epic 4G Touch or the iPhone 4s.
[Networking] morphis568:
I'm in the same boat as you.

The key differences are:

Photon has a better radio and has a gsm radio as well

Photon's built is heavier in a good way

Photon has pentile display which causes pixalated effect.

Epic has a better SoC including graphics and Cpu

ram is the same i don't know about nand though. Epic will prolly have a better dev community though but the photon has an alpha of cyanogen's out.

Nexus s is still a solid phone but if getting a pure google experience wait a month for the nexus prime announcement. (maybe the price of the current phone will drop a bit?)
[Networking] tooter1:
Well, we didn't go with Sprint. Said they would give me 5 lines if we faxed some paperwork to them. Did that and, the manager at Sprint corporate took 5 line offer away.

Said I could only have 3 lines right now and add 2 more in a year.

Went to Verizon and got 5 lines no problem. I can tell you Verizon 4g is no joke.
[Networking] A2CKilla:
you probably no longer qualified after they reviewed the paper work,i like when people leave things out :) but anyway, back to the topic at hand, go with the photon, i work at sprint, and messed with all 3 phones, the photon has the best radios, signal, battery life, right out the box!!! a lot of people say there's no development, but think of it this way, if the phone was perfect out of the box, why would there be development??? lol, but i digress, sprint offers the best plans with NO data caps OR speed restriction, just one fee, and your in the world of unlimited!!!!!
[Networking] Babydollll:
Sprints unlimited won't last forever....I already canceled my MBB...

Pipsqueak approved this message
[Networking] tooter1:
Oh I left out that Sprint wanted to be sure we had 5 lines at T-Mobile.

We sure did and, they still reneged on the deal! Some people!

I have been reading in the development forum about webtop2sd. I would post this question in that forum, but I haven't posted enough to get posting rights there.

My question is what are the benefits of moving webtop to the SD card? I read the info in the Atrix forum, but I am still not sure what benefits it provides. Is there another post or blog site that gives more information or can someone post the benefits in response to this post?

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Feoen:
Please bare with me, I am a fairly novice xda user.

I purchased my Bionic at launch, and it has been working perfectly until about a week ago. I always run the phone on stock OS not rooted, automatic brightness, 4g turned off, no wifi/sync/bluetooth. I would generally get down to 20% of my battery from 7 am to midnight on these settings, which was fantastic.

Suddenly, I now lose 10% every 20 minutes. This is not an exaggeration, I have been testing it with Battery Spy. CPU Spy reports that my phone never goes into deep sleep and is always running at the lowest mhz setting when idle.

Under battery usage, Cell Standby is reporting 45%, then Phone Idle at 35%, then Screen at 15%. The remainder its split between K9 Mail and Handcent SMS.

I have uninstalled everything that I thought could be causing this... Facebook, Google+, etc. Apart from the stock bloatware and k9/Handcent, my phone is like new. The best I could do is a factory reset at this point...

I don't think it is a bad battery because the stock battery goes from 100% to 0 in less than an hour when it would last half a day beforehand. I am really at a loss.

One thing I do know is that the 3g and bars are almost always blue, which I think it means is transmitting data. Maybe this is the culprit?

Please pardon my ignorance with the whole issue. Any help would be very, very appreciated. The Bionic was the best phone I have ever owned up until this battery fiasco, and I would like to find out why this is happening.

Thank you.

EDIT: would just like to update, Battery Spy reads that my phone is running at 104° Fahrenheit. I do not know if this is normal, but this was after an hour since a cold boot. Sounds high to me but I'm not sure.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Geezer Squid:
Sounds like you have some thing that is really using up some cpu cycles. One way to see what's going on is to install the app Android System Info from the market. It has a section called Tasks and it will let you look and see what part of the system is using how much cpu. I do not think you have to be rooted to use this, but I could be wrong. I did go to the market and look and saw no mention of needing to be rooted.

I know this will sound extreme, but I would definitely do it if this was happening to my phone: Factory Reset and start fresh.

Good luck.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Feoen:
Thank you for the advice. I installed it, and appear from the Android System Info app taking up 50% of my cpu, and Android System using 4%, everything else was listed at 0.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] luke1333:
i have the same problem man! i have the extended battery and it lasts maybe 9 hours and i have tried several batteries from verizon store i keep swapping them lol and im on 4G all day and performance battery and data on all 24/7 too and i could get 20 hours ++ out of thunderbolt extended and cant get half that with bionic. there is something going on and nobody at verizon can figure my problem out!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] FUCCO69:
Format the sd card in ur pc. Then put sd card back in bionic and transfer ur stuff back on it. Ur bionic is scanning sd card non stop for errors drainin battery. I had this problem for weeks beofre i figured this out. Was gettin 7-8 hrs on ext battery. Now ibget 30 hrs
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mzimand:
I had a similar issue and the problem was my sim card needing to be reinstalled. It was not seaded correctly and caused my radio to act up. I truned off the phone and removed the sim card and then reinserted it and rebooted and I was back to normal.

I am not sure if this is your problem but it is easy enough to try.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Feoen:
Would this apply if I am not using 4g? I have 4g disabled and it was my impression that the sim card was only used for 4g.

I uninstalled k9 which for some reason began using 7% of my battery though I had never opened it since reboot and now I am getting a loss of 10% per hour of normal use.

I went to bed with the battery at 70 and woke up with it at the same so I at least solved the sleeping problem. Not sure why k9 was responsible though.

OK, so today I downloaded and installed 2.3.3 and found out that the wifi will not work (phone reboots when you try and turn it one) and from what I have been reading it is due to the kernel as there is not a 2.3.3 kernel for the cdma r800x, tried to put the phone back to 2.3.2 and it will not boot past the sony splash page.

tried to delete all cache and still nothing flashed the stock kernel flashed the stock system and when I did the system flash this is what I got.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaskwith:
Can you all be BLUNTLY honest with me and answer my question? : Are the ROMS the DEV teams are releasing actually STABLE daily drivers? I used to be a CrackFlasher back when I had a MT4G and it was very addicting, however I had stable internet and resources so I could easily fix problems and so I never had a big problem if there were minor issues with ROMs. I am now in a situation where I depend on my phone for my internet, for the most part...basically I am just paranoid because many people have TB's where they randomly restart and the battery dies right away etc etc... I haven't experienced any of these problems with MY TB, so I don't want to flash into a new ROM if they aren't stable enough yet. Anyways, any input would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I use SkyRaider on my TBolt as well as my wife's. Haven't had any issues whatsoever. It's Gingerbread-based and Sense 2.1 with some Sense 3.0 bits included.

Personally, I think when ROMs are 'pushed' too far, i.e. Sense 3.5, you're taking a chance. Right off the bat, it's likely to be a touchy situation. Does that mean that it will be resolved and work well ? It could.
