I do like a good apple bash lol

I'd like to get my hands on a 4s out of the box.

Benchmarks don't mean all that much if your comparing android to android because you can cook it up

But when comparing to ios its usefull

I guarantee that I could beat any benchmark score that the 4s can produce with my Sensation :-) 73% better undrclocked at 800 ha ha what a load of tosh

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morning thunder:
So i upgraded my phone to KJ3 the first time went fine and everything was perfect...

Then i flashed Circle battery theme from I9000 because i didn't find any for Captivate then i reboot the system but the phone kept restarting on AT&T sign and then galaxy s sign and that's it

so

i entered to Download mod and tried to upgrade it again like the first time (KJ3 Odin one click) then all of sudden it gave me "fail" and every time i tried to go to Download mod there is non... like the image below

I tried holding + - volume buttons and plug USB = Nothing (Image below)

I tried holding + - volume buttons and power = Nothing (Image below)

I

CAN NOT

enter Download mod or Recovery mod

Where i live i can't find any JIG USB so it's not a solution for me

Is there any solution or did anybody have the same thing and solved it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
that probably is download mode
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viny2cool:
I am not sure, if this will help you as I cannot see your attached image (blocked at work)....

But if you cannot get into DL mode..but as you are saying its wierd, so I assume it colorful phone and colorful desktop computer? with a line " try using recovery mode"

than just plug your phone to your computer and ODIN will detect it...Happened to me..and I went back to Jf6....

I am wondering if i can connect the Evo 3D to composite?

(Why? Long story lol)

I was considering this cable: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003Z6Q1DG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER

Can anyone confirm this will work or a way to connect to composite is possible?

I dont need sound FYI.
[HTC EVO 3D] rstuckmaier:
I don't know about that one. There is a theory/rumor that the headphone jack carries analog video, however. I have not tested this personally. You would need a cable like this.

EDIT: there is more about it here. It may just be a myth.
[HTC EVO 3D] o0adam0o:
Thanks for that... after researching a bit im pretty sure there is no way. It looks like the Evo outputs digital.. so theres no analog options aside from buying an extra analog to digital converter. Oh well..
[HTC EVO 3D] clockstopper123:
I recently bought this cable, but I returned the same day. It says its micro USB to composite, which it's not. That cable only works with Droid Incredible 1. I have been looking for that as well
[HTC Desire S] StevaSRB:
Ok. So I was in such a hurry and very naive to think that Revolutionary will unlock my Desire S by making it S-OFF.

My question is: Will there be any conflict with XTC Clip after the phone had been already S-OFFed using Rev.? Will I be able to unlock it now or do I have to find a way to S-ON it first?
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
With revolutionary your device should be unlocked, maybe you forgot to root, rooting and s-off got nothing to do with each other, s-off is just needed to gain root ;)

Cause your device is s-off I would recommend you to flash another bootloader and replace the revolutionary one, because there are some problems related to it, but using xtc doesn't make much sense for me, because it would s-off an already s-offed device and the bootloader would still stay the same^^
[HTC Desire S] StevaSRB:
That's what I was thinking at first, but after searching the forum all I could find was that it can't be software unlocked, but only using xtc clip... I'm glad I don't need to pay extra 20€ for an unlock.

Do you have any suggestion for a bootloader?

My shipped rom was:

RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4_Radio_20.28I.30.085 AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed/0.98.0002
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Only the 2.00.0002 bootloader can't be unlocked with revolutionary, if it's not maybe try it one more time or make it with xtc-clip it's 100% save that your device is s-off after that. Check if it's really not s-offed, just shutdown your device, wait till it's really shutdown (wait about 20 secs), then hold vol - and push power till your device starts.

After this you should be in bootloader, if you got s-off it's writen at the top of it and you just have to root it with gingerbreak.apk (just google for it to download ;) ) or flash an custom rom or recovery or bootloader or all of this (take also a look at the index thread within the development section)^^

I would recommend you the the 0.98.2000 bootloader and the 4ext recovery, just look at the development section both got an own thread^^
[HTC Desire S] StevaSRB:
My Desire S is S-OFF. But I can't downgrade from 6.98.0002 that Revolutionary gave me to 0.98.2000. What should I do about that? Also, gingerbreak just gets stuck on rooting forever. I've checked for both the memory card and usb debuging...
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
download clockworkmod or 4ext recovery zip, rename it to PG88IMG.zip put it to root of sd go to bootloader and flash it.

Download the zip or the .img from the hboot thread (if it's a zip unpack it) and put the hboot.img to root of your sd

Reboot to recovery

Instal adb at your desktop, plug in your device and run

adb devices

adb shell

dd if=/dev/mmbclk0p18 of=/sdcard/backup.img

dd if=/sdcard/hboot.img of=/dev/mmcblk0p18

exit

adb reboot bootloader

Edit: forgot exit and added it, sry
[HTC Desire S] kk6513:
Sorry,noon question.wat different between bootloader 0.98.2000 and 6.98.0002? Bcoz mine is 6.98.0002.
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Within functionality not much, but unfortunately it can cause problems, because of this I would recommend to change it.
[HTC Desire S] kk6513:
Oic....Thx for the reply.but I already flash to miui rom,can I chg the bootloader now?
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Sure, bootloader recovery and ROM are different things ;)
[HTC Desire S] kk6513:
OK,Thx,will try to flash it and flash to new radio as well.
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Good luck don't forget to wipe ;)
[HTC Desire S] kk6513:
Can I flash to newest bootloader?
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Yes but it doesn't make much sense with a miui rom.

The new bootloader got a different partition table, the /system/lib is an own partition, but only the new sense roms make advantage of this, at miui it's just wasted space.

I would recommend you the one in my signature.
[HTC Desire S] StevaSRB:
Having some problems: I've extracted hboot_0.98.0000_361a7ba6_0310.img from PG88IMG.zip, renamed it hboot.img and placed it to sdcard's root.

[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Sry, there's a typo at the first dd it's mmcblk0p18 not mmbclk0p18 ;)

With the second try within adb shell

mount /sdcard

before the dd commands.

That means:

adb devices

adb shell

mount /sdcard

dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p18 of=/sdcard/backup.img

dd if=/sdcard/hboot.img of=/dev/mmcblk0p18

exit

adb reboot bootloader
[HTC Desire S] StevaSRB:
still nothing. could you please tell me what mmcblk0p18 is and how do I get it since it says: dd: can't open '/dev/mmcblk0p18': No such file or directory
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Try within shell

cat /proc/partitions

Mmcblk0p18 is the partition where your hboot is placed, with the dd command the image file replaces this partition

Swyped from my HTC Desire S

Edit:

I'm an idiot -.-, sry.

It's /dev/block/mmcblk0p18
[Verizon Droid Charge] jpog:
About 3 days ago, I got some Verizon Update pushed to my phone, just happened when I turned it on.

Now everytime I boot up the phone it gives the little APP update icon in the bar at the top..I pull it down says there are 3 apps to update. So I open it and there are no apps that pop up to the top to update?

This has never happened before..any ideas?

It's just annoying...not really a problem.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Homestar1217:
My phone doesn't pop it up randomly, but it does tell me the wrong number every time. For instance, it will notify me that 5 apps can update when only 2 are available. My first Charge didn't, this "certified like new" one that I just got does.

Thanks in advance. :confused:
[Nook Color General] Moshe5368:
I would recommend avoiding the HoneyComb builds as they are buggy. We do not have the source code for HC so it will alwys be buggy. As for Gingerbread, I would recommend CM7.1.0, the latest stable build. As many folks here hve detailed the best route to dual boot cm7 and stock, I will refer you to the excellent threads on that topic. I do not run dual boot as cm7 serves all my needs. I have not had the stock firmware on my nook since the second day I had it. Good luck with your new nook and don't forget to have fun.
[HTC Sensation] SychoSly:
I was able to get S-OFF and root my phone yesterday. It was surprisingly easy to do. Much easier than jailbraking an iphone, but that is a different story/forum.

My question: Once root is achieved can the su file that is placed on the SD card be deleted?
[HTC Sensation] Mastacheata:
Of course, the SU zip is only for flashing. It's contents are copied to the system and afterwards the system will no longer access the zip files.

Correct me if I'm going down the wrong path with this but to me the "full" Nook charge cable is a very tight fit and is prone to breakage at the smallest hint of mistreatment. If I can plug the unit into a standard cable using a third party brick and get a full charge by letting it charge overnight I'll save the "good stuff" for my laptop bag for when I might actually need a 3 hour full charge. As long as my battery indicator shows full in the morning I don't need a shiny green "n".

You have to be careful though, some are selling some that are just "Samsung Galaxy S" jigs, designed for the series I devices like Captivate that won't necessarily work with the SGSII versions.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gigacross:
Hi,

I am currently using KI4 Android 2.3.4 and I want to upgrade to KI3 2.3.5.

I downloaded the firmware (but I think it was simply the stock kernel) from Intratech's post - "XXKI3 stock" and I flashed it using Odin, but it got me into a boot loop and thankfully I did a back up before in CWM4, but I had to re-install KI4, root it, go back into CWM4 to restore the phone. Again thankfully that worked otherwise I would have lost everything.

So... how should I be doing the firmware upgrade?

Also, should I download ZSKI3 instead of XXKI3? I know XX belongs to Europe, but where does ZS belong to? Does it even matter where it belongs to?

Lastly, if I decide not to use CyanogenMod, and I want to use another ROM or if I want to just simply use the stock version that came with the phone, what should I do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Follow the instructions . Stock firmware thread .

ZS = China HK firmware .

Lastly, if I decide not to use CyanogenMod, and I want to use another ROM or if I want to just simply use the stock version that came with the phone, what should I do?

Dont make sense to me but if you want to use a rom you follow the given instructions likewise a stock rom read and follow the instructions .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gigacross:
Thanks JJe!

I have another simple question, is there any problem with installing ROM on different firmwares? Because as I look in the forum, I have seen the ROMs having based on KI4, KI3 and so on... is it critical that I upgrade the firmware, then install the ROM?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
No mostly is the answer rom modem kernel interchangeable in practice .

My preference if KI3 custom rom would be to install KI3 stock beforehand .

[Motorola Photon 4G] pIxiLatEd:
I was cruising around doing some reading today and found a thread where someone had managed to pull the stock recovery out of an SBF file and replace it with Clockwork. They even made a "recovery only" sbf file and successfully installed it on their phone.

So from what I can gather, this would allow people to flash ROMs, themes, etc. without having to unlock and install a new recovery? You would have Clockwork with a locked bootloader?

Someone shed some light on this for me, please.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
I think the bootloader still needs to be unlocked because of the signature verification.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kcarpenter:
Not so much signature validation, because that is a function of the recovery - but unlocking the partitions to be written too.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
Thanks for clarifying, I wasn't quite sure.
[Motorola Photon 4G] pIxiLatEd:
I think I understand now, thanks. I was under the assumption that since Motorola are technically the only ones who are creating the sbf files, that they would be trusted by the devices to do as they please. Again, I am just learning here so thanks for whatever info comes about on this.
