[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr0roboto:
I had previously rooted with Unrevoked and wanted to upgrade to Android 2.3.3. Since I was under the impression that my phone was rooted, I installed the PC36IM.zip (Sprint Lover's ROM) onto my SD card and installed the update. However, now I don't have root access. I ran root checker and it verifies the lack of root access. My boot screen shows "S-OFF" as well. I can't run revolutionary as I have HBOOT 2.10.0001 (not 2.15 or 2.16). Is there a way to update my HBOOT to 2.16 or another way to root my phone now? I have superuser and busybox installed (Busybox checks out ok). Below is the root check data:

Root Access is not properly configured or was not granted.

Superuser.apk - com.noshufou.android.su - version 3.0.5 is installed!

System Environment PATH: /sbin /vendor/bin /system/sbin /system/bin /system/xbin

The adb binary is set to default shell user access as root

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
If you're wanting to stay stock, flash a stock rooted rom. Or flash a custom rom if you would like. There's something wrong with your Superuser install, flashing a different rom will fix this.

The root is a part of the rom itself, so don't go updating your hboot or anything - you're already s-off. Find a rom in the development section that you like - stock or otherwise - and flash that through recovery. Remember to make a nandroid backup just in case, and wipe thoroughly. If you're unsure about how to do this, do a little reading.

You can also try to redownload and reflash the Sprint Lovers PC36IMG, but I also recommend learning to flash through recovery if you don't know how.

Good luck, and if you run into any further problems just ask about them here.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr0roboto:
Yup, superuser file was messed up. I removed it, installed a fresh version through recovery and now the root access is working perfectly. Thanks for the assistance!!

[Optimus One, P500, V General] CondaBoy:
go into manage applications and look at every app, watch out for the cache size also. If nothing turns up just try clearing the cache/data of the apps that could be responsible(new, unreliable)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DaXmax:
Do this.. Have to survive bro!

Make an Nandroid Backup

Format system, cache, boot and data...

Flash Cyanogenmod 6.5.8

Then Download unofficial gapps from temasek...

http://www.mediafire.com/temasek

Flash the gapps...

Reboot into system

Setup yadadada

Reboot into recovery

Restore data... ;) Hope it works!

[A7 General] god420:
first let me start off by saying thanks to dex for the wonderful work on his custom roms for the elocity , and making it an nice counterpart to my xoom instead of a usless paper weight lol

i have downloaded the CyanogenMod7RC1-nightlybuild3108 with a build date of 06-september-2011

and am wanting to install the overclocked kernel

(have my xoom at 1.7 and thought the 1.4 for the elocity would be nice)

i have downloaded the A7 OC kernel from several sources and so far i get stuck on the device boot prompt every time after flashing the kernel

i guess first am i doing it right

first i install the CyanogenMod7RC1 update zip (wich if i dont flash the oc kernel boots and works fine)

then i load up the oc kernal and flash it

as soon as device reboots i get the boot device prompt and it hangs there

any help would be verry appreciated
[Captivate Accessories] phoneturf:
My phone (Captivate) came with an earbud style headset with a mic inline so you could answer calls, talk on the phone, and listen to music. Are there any non-earbud (behind-or-over-the-head) style wired headsets like this? All I can find are ones that have two connectors (pink and green, as if for a PC sound card), or wireless bluetooth ones.
[Captivate Accessories] beast534:
You're right I really can't find any wired-stereo-non-earbud-headsets. Here are some that have trade offs.

The following is an over the head/wired/non-earbud, but its not stereo.

http://www.accessorywiz.com/over-th...-headset-headphone-for-samsung-captivate.html

This one is everything you wanted but it's not wired.

http://www.buy.com/pr/product.aspx?sku=219366058&sellerid=19087894

Anyways, Good hunting!
[Captivate Accessories] phoneturf:
Yes, it is odd that these are not available since there are so many of the earbud type that are. I already have a few bluetooth headsets with input, including one with a boom mic, that work fine but I would prefer a wired one for all-day use.
[Captivate Accessories] phoneturf:
I found a pair : Sennheiser PX 100-IIi . Although they are made for iDevices, the controls and mic supposedly work with some android phones (I assume the ones with 4 pole connectors). I will soon see. I already have a pair of plain PX100 and they are my favorite wired headphones, so if these work as I hope, they will be great.
[Captivate Accessories] 2 die 4:
So, do they work on android?
[Captivate Accessories] phoneturf:
Nope - they don't change the volume anyway, but you can use the button to stop and start music as well as answer and hang up the phone.

However, a good set of non-wired headphones that does have full control with volume, starting and stopping music, and talking on the phone, including good voice quality despite not having an external mic, is the Motorola S305 bluetooth headphones. They are not as good as the Sennheisers for music quality, though.
[Captivate Accessories] 2 die 4:
OK, thank you. Just one more q, what android device did you test it on?
[Captivate Accessories] phoneturf:
Some of the Samsung Galaxy series - Note, Note 2, Captivate, Skyrocket. Perhaps for some other manufacturer, like Sony, the volume controls would work.
[Captivate Accessories] 2 die 4:
OK, I have a MOTO G, and I have these http://www.meelec.com/MEElectronics_M9P_Earphones_for_iPhone_iPod_p/earphone-m9p-bk-mee.htm and they work. I mean, the controls work like a charm!

I'm guessing it's because it uses the 4 pull jack, so that should mean that the PX 100-2i should work to!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Narsil007:
Before starting a new thread, I used the search function and looked through the "check these threads before starting a new one" listed threads but didn't find an answer. If this has already been addressed, my apoiogies.

My company uses Excel spreadsheets with custom Visual Basic macros that I have written when we test medical imaging equipment. I would love to use a Tablet for this but Dataviz states "that code type is not supported by handheld platforms, so Documents To Go cannot execute the VB code necessary to use those features. "

Is this an accurate statement? I don't know enough about Android yet to know whether it is correct or if this is perhaps outdated information. The statement was made in June of 2010.

Is Visual Basic totally imcompatible with Android or is there hope that custom macro enabled Excel spreadsheets may work in the semi-near future?

Thank you in advance for any information you give me.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3athsd00r:
I've seen a few people that have gotten Backtrack, Ubuntu, and Debian linux working on the Xoom. But my thing is, these distros are somewhat bloated with excess packages and desktop manager (Gnome, KDE, etc).

I was just curious as to if anyone knows how they did this (or a link) so I can start trying to get Arch (or any small and fast distro.... suggestions???) working on the Xoom. I would like to get Gentoo but it just doesn't seem feasible or necessary to compile all those packages.

[Atrix 4G General] A.VOID:
new to the atrix.

I installed the latest oat update, and the phone was @ 70% after charging all night. I also noticed it discharge updates only by 10% increments.

I installed the homepage Rom, and it charged overnight to 93%.

I've applied the battery fix, but that only seems to stabilize the display (I noticed it fluctuating before the fix)

is there a fix? I've done calibrations on phones, but I needed to get 100% and the charge while off. Not sure how I can calibrate if I can't get a full charge while on.
[Atrix 4G General] J-man67:
Use recovery to wipe battery stats. If it still fails to display 100% when charged shut the phone off. Take the battery out, then plug the phone in. Wait until the "?" on the battery shows up. Then put the battery in while it is still plugged in. Leave it like that for about 30 mins. When you click the volume button the battery will show only 5-10%, but turn the phone on and it should read 100%.
[Atrix 4G General] A.VOID:
I'll try that. I already wiped battery a couple times in cwn
[Atrix 4G General] J-man67:
OK, then the 2nd part should do the trick. It works for me anyways. Once you do see 100%, wipe batt stats again and let the battery die, then charge while the phone is off. Should fix you up.
[Atrix 4G General] pukemon:
You might have to wipe battery stats several times. I had an out of the ordinary calibration problem between flashing roms and had to wipe everything several times before it started working properly. Also note, that charging up to 95%-99%, and unplugging and plugging back in and slowly charging past 95% is common and not a problem. The software is estimating battery charge. And if you do charge past 95% and unplug its ok if it quickly goes back down to 95% and then tapers slowly.

I voided my warranty and your mum.
[Atrix 4G General] drpratik:
You have to wait for battery to go beyond 95%.

It takes time but it goes their.

My personal experience.
[Atrix 4G General] Jnewell05:
Just drain the battery til it dies. Then plug it in over night while you sleep. Once you wake up wipe battery stats and everything should be good.
[Atrix 4G General] J-man67:
I think he has tried both of these methods. I know I did. What I told him to do was the only thing that worked for me.
[Atrix 4G General] A.VOID:
OK J, it looks like that fixed it.

Although battery showed 4169, and I saw others with 4200 :(

Thanks issued!
[Atrix 4G General] psolovyov:
try discharging until the phone shuts off and charging it again without turning it off.
[Atrix 4G General] J-man67:
Hmm...battery should show 4203 when fully charged. Mine has actually displayed 4205 a couple of times.
[Atrix 4G General] A.VOID:
I'm going to try it again. I tried a different rom, and it only went to 92%. I redid the battery pull and Saw 4185.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheElectricalGuru:
Hello Everyone,

Firstly, I need to say that as a previous owner of an original droid, I was able to root it with no problems on the first go around. However, as a new owner of a Samsung Galaxy SII I am finding root a real challenge.

I have no problems getting into download mode and so on....I have successfully placed the clockworks rom onto the phone with again no problems and I have all the drivers working properly. I guess this is where I am obviously an idiot....because I start the Super One Click and it gets to Step 6 and then stops. I unplug the USB....click the debugg off and then back on and reconnect my USB like directed by many posters. However, in my case it will not continue on and finish the install.....

I reboot and do get the small triangle on boot up ( not that I care too much about that really...do have a jig on order however) but I simply can't seem to get it to root.

Again I have followed all the posts and guides for unplugging, unchecking and rechecking the debugging and then plug back in the USB and still nothing.

Phone works fine....everything works...love the phone...just seems puzzling to me. I have Odin 1.82, I have SuperOneClick 2.1.1 and like I said installed the .tar fine to the phone with no worries....just cant get it to root.

Any advice?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DobermanS:
"....I have successfully placed the clockworks rom onto the phone with again "

Do you mean kernel with clockwork recovery ? Because if so,the kernel suppoused to be rooted already.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheElectricalGuru:
I firs downloaded the below file, Then downloaded ODIN 1.82 and all associated samsung drivers. I also downloaded SuperOneClick 2.1.1.

The instructions were to load the .tar file on first which I did successfully. When I go to the final step and use SuperOneClick to ROOT the phone is where the problems happens. I can't get past step 6 and unchecking and rechecking the debugging box at step 6 does not help.

SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3.tar
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSniperFan:
Try an alternative way I used the one described on the CyanogenMod-wiki. Worked like a charm for me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DSA:
That tar file says its for sgh- I777

Where did you get it from?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DobermanS:
I'm not familiar with this method,i gues because it's AT&T device ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheElectricalGuru:
I believe I downloaded it from this site. It was part of a guide to rooting the Galaxy S2 phone. It had all the files for download in links at the very top of the page but to be honest I have looked at so many pages now I can't remember where I got it on here.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Siberian Tiger:
Check your pm
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DobermanS:
Man,and again this method for AT&T Galaxy only... if you have it so it's different thread in the forum.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonycfc:
Oh dear, what model of the Samsung Galaxy S II are you using? If it's the GT-i9100(the international model) then you've used the wrong .tar file. Obviously the "SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3.tar" file is for the AT&T S II.

Do pay close attention to the model number. :)

[HTC Amaze 4G] hiazn:
I dont remember which forum I got this from. but from what I understand is it's a backup of hulu off a droidx, use TI backup to restore. in the original thread people from other phones were saying it was working, so I'm hopeful it'll help us too until Hulu officially supports... Problem is need root for TI :) I'm still having issues getting the temp root, so maybe someone that did get that working can give it a shot.

edit: got it from rootz :) thunderbolt forum.... posted by huntken...
[HTC Amaze 4G] Willieumm:

[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
I can't get it to work on 1.4.1. Only 1.3.0 and earlier.
[HTC Amaze 4G] hiazn:
That's weird, I used the ti backup that I posted earlier on 1.4.1 without doing anything extra.... Fc or buffering network problems? x is using an adfree base, if it's network problems need to use adfree and do a revert or mod your hosts to stock... Which you probably know anyway, but just a reminder ;)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
I'll give that a try.

Yeah it shows up as "It appears you are having network issues. Please wait, or try again later."

But when I flash 1.2.1 it clears right up. I tried pushing the 1.2.1 build.prop over and that doesn't make any difference. I'll try the adfree bit as you suggested.

EDIT:

Holy sh!#

It actually worked. You sir... are a GODSEND! You have no clue. Now I can have my cake and eat it too. Hulu+ was the only reason I was staying on 1.2.0.

Thanks for the tip!
[HTC Amaze 4G] hiazn:
Np, anytime I can add something useful. works the same with 1.5.1 :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
As a matter of fact it does. I went from 1.5.0 this morning, finally able to use Hulu, flashed 1.5.1 and couldn't again. Reverted the hosts and still couldn't. Rebooted and all was well.

I never dis assembeled my phone so it can't be a scratch.

How long have you had the phone, reason being is that you said you "recently noticed". Also, you said you cleaned the the camera cover, did you check the lens as well?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] leoolo:
yes i cleaned the lens with lens cleaner and micro fiber , i also opened the camera cover and pulled the cam out and cleaned it and made sure no specs, i had the phone since it was first brought to t-mobile in April, its so confusing me i checked every thing could it be a damage to the sensor. :confused:

Not sure. Did you try a pic without the back cover on, even though you cleaned it?

hey

I know its been awhile since we have heard anything from Revo and its a ban-able offense on their IRC to ask about how its going, but has anyone heard about ANYTHING that'd led to S-Off on the Htc Evo 3D?

I had to switch back to my htc evo 4g cause I can't stand not having root and S-off on my 3d. And I really do not want to use HTC's Method. So has anyone heard anything? Like progress? Or should I just

abandon hope? Lol
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
as a general suggestion, i'd recommend to never abandon hope. if their irc channel, their main location they advertize to contact them, doesnt provide information on their status, i'm not sure you'll find any other *insider* information on XDA regarding their status. they generally keep a fairly tight knit group.

i haven't heard any insider information either. i would hope they're working on a method for hboot 1.5 but might not be making it a top priority since htc has released an unlock method and revalphax does cover a number of devices. even though htc's method is not the same and not as "thorough" it still works and allows the basics.

maybe somebody will correct me and we'll all get an update! hope that helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] xadidas4lifex:
thanks bro!!! and yea, i was just seeing if any rumors or any leaked lol

i wouldnt abandon hope cause it can be done, i believe in those guys. but damn i cant wait lol but thank you for your reply

Hi

I have tablet with android 3.1. When I have the table all in english everything is fine. But when I switch it into my language (czech), some of the description or names of the app in market got translated into my language (and the translation is very very bad)

I would like to switch this automatic feature off, so I will always see the text in original language (eg English).

It happens within different version of market

I tried to find it, but the only thing I found

http://www.google.com/support/androidmarket/developer/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=113469

from this I can see that developer can allow this automatic translation for his app.

But I want to disable it from user perspective.
