http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Unrooting_and_Returning_to_Stock

Way back when, I followed that guide to get my phone back to complete stock before I started flashing again. As for the SD card, I took off the media files that I wanted and just formatted the card using the phone.

In between ROMs, SuperwipeG2+ is what I use to completely clear the phone, without killing root.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Careless_:
Thanks EfemaN.

I don't want to unroot. I want to retain the ability to do everything I do now... I just want it to be as if I'm doing this for the first time again.

So I'm just going to recap what I intend to do. Can you or someone else tell me if this is all that's required?

1) download rom of choice

2) back up SD card

3) format/repartition SD card

4) upload rom zip from step 1 to SD card

5) run SuperwipeG2+ to remove everything off the phone but retain eng. hboot, root, and s-off

6) select flash rom from zip in recovery, and use zip from step 4

7) enjoy?

please let me know if I have it right. I can't stand these reboots and random shutoffs now from my current rom- but I'm not sure if it's because of previous installs that I've not cleared properly... I just want to make sure its not my previous software having any conflicts. For peace of mind I want to start from a fresh phone with root/soff/hboot.
[G2 and Desire Z General] killj0y:
Step 2 should be backup apps with titanium, and step 3 should be nandroid backup just in case, step 7 should be restore backed up apps and data (but not system data), and step 8 PROFIT!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Ditamae:
When you superwipe (if you don't use 4EXT Recovery) you'll want to use this version:

http://www.multiupload.com/U7JPZHUG1E

Otherwise your partitions will be converted to ext 3. I highly recommend the 4EXT Recovery though... it's brilliant.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
Yeah, that superwipe version will convert him to EXT4 automatically plus efs and wipe all partitions. Definatly what he needs. Good work as always! Its nice to have a handfull of helpful people around this subforum. Its refreshing from what xda used to be. A bunch of bitter geeks who just flame every question. Heck, I was scared to ask anything for a year, lol!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Ditamae:
Thanks sino8r. I know what you mean about posting on XDA... I spent a few months doing nothing but reading before I actually posted a question. But in the end I'm better off for it. I just want people to love their Visions as much as I do. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Castellano2:
Hey guys,

I cannot decide if I should change my Evo 3D for new Sensation XE, which has more powerful processor (1,5 GHZ), better sound but less RAM and no 3D.. what do you think? I prefer performance.. is less RAM problem?
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
Gonna see a big performance improvement with 300mhz increase? Not really.

Is Beats anything more than a software hack? Nope. That's been proven a couple times.

So. Right there. You can install Eternity and overclock to 1.5 and get Beats. You won't lose RAM, 3D, or have to change providers.
[HTC EVO 3D] Castellano2:
I read some forums and find out that HTC Sensation XE is the same hardware like original HTC Sensation but the difference is overclocked processor, new headphones and image..

how much is HTC Sensation from aluminium?
[HTC EVO 3D] thizzlemania91:
Have you seen the white sensation xe its so sexy I go with that plus free beat headphones duh :)

I did a search and have not been able to find anything on how to remove the "Sent from my Samsung SHG-I777 using Tapatalk" Is this a Tapatalk issue? Mail issue?

Great forum.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
2 completely different apps.

in tapatalk, you go into settings, and hit Tapatalk signature set it to NONE

in mail, look in the settings and you will find the option to turn off the signature or set it to whatever you like

that being said, which one are you looking for?

[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
Hi guys, thanks in advance for your help!

Just a (hopefully) quick question:

Currently I am running Alien ROM/Theme and obviously unlocked, rooted, and have flashed CWM Recovery. If I were to flash the latest 198_6 SBF, what would happen?

I was under the impression that I would need to reinstall stock recovery prior to flashing the SBF, or am I just completely wrong here? I don't really understand what would be affected except that I would probably be relocked and unrooted..?

Thanks again guys!

[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
You would lose cwm, unlock, and root, taking you back to the latest stock.. However your data partition (apps, contacts, etc) will remain untouched.
[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
Yeah, I figured I would that would happen. Just kind of a pain in the ass to do that all over again...LOL! Thanks Acvice! :)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jitendragarg:
Ok, so get this. I followed the procedure from the sticky thread on how to flash, and Odin failed at flashing the firmware step. Don't know how. It just failed saying connection error.

Now, starting the phone gives a black screen which keeps on going like forever.

I tried to reflash, and same error at exact same step. So, I repackaged that tar file, and again flashed it, and Odin said Pass. I thought, it worked, but when powering up the system, still same issue. Just a freaking black screen.

So, now, I am confused as to what I missed? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mjbri0613:
try to flash your firmware again with latona 1st.. then flash your desired firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jitendragarg:
I have only one folder, which is I guess for Phone files only. So, if I use PIT, won't it create problems later?

Anyways, anything is better than nothing. Will try to use latona.pit before flashing. Downloading a new firmware too, just to make sure firmware is not corrupt.

BTW, this is the exact log from ODin, if it helps.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jitendragarg:
New update. Turns out, I was wrong. That one tar file was supposed to go for PDA, and not phone. Stupid Me.

Anywho, I downloaded a stock firmware with all the three packages, and flashing with that. It worked. Now, trying to flash the new firmware again. Lets hope, it works too.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] seizmos:
Nice br'o, welcome to xda community ;).
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jitendragarg:
Ok, so that new package is seriously bonkers. Why the hell is modem.bin added with rest of PDA files. But, phone works now, and the firmware is installed. So, lets forget it. First galaxy sl f/w update successful. :)

[Optimus One, P500, V General] adfad666:
Hello,

It's a well know 'fact' that our P500 draws the same amount of power when clocked at anything below 480MHz, so underclocking it below 480MHz brings no battery benefits.

I have been trying to find the reason for this, but I can't find the thread / post in the search that details the reasons for this and how it was tested. My guess is that it's buried in one of the many bloated development threads... If someone can point me in the right direction that would be great.

Cheers!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] yuripg1:
I know

this thread

has a quote of

this post

and that this is a well known information but, besides this community common knowledge (by which I'm very grateful), I also can't find any specific data on this matter.

I even found

this thread

that aks the same thing, but it has no answers.

So it would be great if someone could give us a bit more information about this.

Thanks in advance! :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] InfiniteRisen:
480MHz and below use the same voltage. It takes more battery to jump from say 245 to the max freq
[Optimus One, P500, V General] adfad666:
Yes, we all 'know' this but where did this information come from? :confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] adfad666:
This post shows that it is a general MSM7x27 'feature' that all frequencies below 600MHz use the same voltage. This is where we assume this to mean that it uses the exact same amount of power whether it is running at 122, 245, 320 or 480MHz, so we're taking a speed hit for no power benefit.

Does anyone knows of any benchmark tests to confirm this? I might try some tests this week, set the min/max MHz to the same value and run a program to keep the CPU at 100% and see how long it takes to drain the battery (perhaps a huge pi calculation or something).
[Optimus One, P500, V General] InfiniteRisen:
Which do you value more, source of information or proof now?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] adfad666:
Surely that's the same thing, a good source should also contain proof of the claims it is making...

I'm not saying it's wrong, but if nobody has tested it we can't be sure, right?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] terratrix:
On my personal experience, i would actually say 245mhz consume less battery than 480mhz. But I still prefer the latter as it's a bit more speedy. On battery life, it's just a <1% difference between the two.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Human_dude_007:
as far as what ihve read!!people say it takes infact more power consumption when we underclock very low frequencies like 122 ,since it takes more work for the phone to operate in a laggy state with very less cpu frquency ..and thats the reason i think(not sure) why we are asked to have a minimum of 480mhz frequency though i prefer 320:)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Turducken:
Test setup suggestion:

Test 1 = Idle

Set to 480/480 set to airplane mode overnight and look at battery drain.

Do the same for 245/245

Compare results

Test 2 = Intermittent load

Set to 480/729- test using on/off series of tests not 100% all the time. You want the governor to scale frequently during the test

Same test above but @ 122/729

Compare results

This will give you 2 conclusions

1 - 480 at idle does/doesn't drain battery as much as 245

2 - Increased scaling does/doesn't increase drain battery.

The longer the phone is awake the more it drains battery. Also take note of how long it takes to complete test 2.

**EDIT**

Intel has done extensive laboratory testing showing the results of Speedstep and the results carry over to ARM and governor scaling.

I'm inclined to follow the crowd on this one, no increase in voltage = no increase in power draw. That's scientific fact.

Increase in frequency will increase heat. Unnecessary scaling will also increase heat. Increased heat leads to shorter battery life, consequently overtime the battery can't hold as much of a charge. So again, nothing decisive here to make me change my mind.

If you still want to, then proceed with the tests above.
