Hey guys, I wanted to toss this together real quick for those who recently upgraded their 'Buntu box and couldn't remember the steps to install the JDK.

Hopefully you'll find the steps outlined below simple and easy to follow.

Lets get on with it!

First download the JDK:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u27-download-440405.html

You'll want the Linux x64 - 'Self Extracting Installer'

How'd you like me linking to it? Now you don't have to go searching all over the place, lol:)

Place it on your Home folder.

Note: Currently only JDK 6 is supported by the Android SDK.

The downloaded file should look like this once complete:

jdk-6u27-linux-x64.bin

To install, download this file and use the following instructions.

1. Check the download file size.

2. Make sure that execute permissions are set

To do that, open the Terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and run this command:

chmod +x jdk-6u27-linux-x64.bin

Now move that file to your Desktop.

3. Create your install directory and then CD into it. This is where you want the JDK to be installed.

I did:

mkdir JDK
cd JDK

The next step installs the JDK into the current directory.

4. Run the self-extracting binary.

../Desktop/jdk-6u27-linux-x64.bin

The binary code license is displayed, and you are prompted to agree to its terms.

The Java Development Kit files are installed in a directory called jdk1.6.0_27. This is in that JDK folder you created earlier.

5. At this point you can delete the bin file if you want to save disk space.

6. Next you should really configure your JDK. Follow these steps.

Open your Home folder. Press Ctrl+h. This unhides the 'hidden' files in your Home folder.

Look for a file called .bashrc and open it.

At the very end of that file add these lines:

export JAVA_HOME=$HOME/JDK/jdk
export PATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH

Make sure there is one blank line above those two lines.

Save that file and close all open windows.

Now you can verify your Java version which also lets you know it is installed properly as well.

Re open the Terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and type:

java -version

I get an output like this one but yours may vary. Just as long as you can see the Java version:

java version "1.6.0_27"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_27-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.2-b06, mixed mode)

Congrats! You just installed the JDK on your Ubuntu 11.10 x64 box.

Now you can go and install the Android SDK :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Not sure if you knew this stang, but after I upgraded to 11.10 x64, this is all I did to get the jdk:

sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk

:)

The tricky part is remembering to reinstall ia32-libs to get adb working again.

This page is a must have after upgrading:

***I'm mobile
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Ah your totally and completely right! I did not know that is what YOU did! Wow, now I know, lol:p

But yea man, I knew about OJDK. I still prefer using the real deal even if it takes a bit of extra work.

Thanks for sharing though for others that may not have been aware of ojdk. I probably should have put that in the OP as an alternative method. I'll update it in a little while when I get back home from dropping the kid off.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Ok! Cool beans. It seems to work well for ddms and such. I seem to always opt for the "open" stuff.

If you want the official Sun jdk it's:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ferramroberto/java

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-plugin

I uninstalled OJDK and did the 3 commands above to verify. Here are the results:

$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_26"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_26-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.1-b02, mixed mode)

Many ways to get to the same result. ;)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hightech316:
If a guide is needed for u to updaye jdk on a *nix box, u probably won't make it far :'(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
You got the same thing except one version older. Weird.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] vwftw:
I upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10, but I already had my build environment set up. Does the upgrade break anything, or is this only for new Oneiric installations?
[HTC Sensation] claudenegm:
hey ;)

I recently created an application called Android Recovery Manager

The version on the other thread is V1.0.

My sensation has been stolen, so for the moment I can't test future updates for the application, and I don't wanna give up on developing it...

I had plans for the next releases, and it really took me lots of efforts to finish it, so I'd like to know if anybody is interested in testing?

The update is ready for testing anyway ;)

Tell me what you think :)

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
I am assuming from the name of the app you must be rooted and more than likely have Clockwork Mod Recovery on your device as well correct?
[HTC Sensation] claudenegm:
Not at all, you only need S-Off :D

The application manages your recoveries, it can flash any recovery you want.

You can either install a recovery image from your computer locally, or let the program download a recovery for you from the always up-to-date list of recoveries.

You can check the other post for screenshots and more info ;)
[HTC Sensation] claudenegm:
Anybody?

10 char.
[HTC Sensation] x Taz x:
I don't mind testing it out for you.
[HTC Sensation] claudenegm:
Thank You :D

So here is the download link.

Please extract the "RecoveryManager.exe" before using it as there will be files generated next to it.

So, I'll need you to install any recovery (Stock or Custom) and send me the log file when it has finished :D (You'll find an XML file in the Log folder in the same place as the application)

I hope I'm not asking a lot :)

Thanks ;)
[HTC Sensation] claudenegm:
The application has been downloaded 2 times, can anybody tell me the results please?
[HTC Sensation] sparkienl:
test version

Downloaded two recovery files for the XE and flashed the CWM 5020 again on my device.

Rebooted into OS, no problems sofar.:D

The programm is selfexplaining and you can stop before flashing and think things over. :cool:

When I restart the programm and want to search for an recovery file on my HDD its going to the last folder I was using before,

thats OK
[HTC Sensation] claudenegm:
Thank you :D

What version do you like more? This one or the other one?

and btw, can you send me the files in the "Logs" folder please?
[HTC Sensation] sparkienl:
xml file

Here is the file as attachment, I removed my nr :D

I can't tell you in the moment which one is nicer/better, maybe you can tell us what the speed increase/decrease is
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username235:
So I'm thinking about getting my first tablet. Things I'm debating on, are either getting this, and having both the tablet and the keyboard, or waiting for the 2nd one, and only being able to get the tablet. I wanna get the 2nd, because it'll, obviously, be faster, and have a better processor, not to mention other things. Among that, it seems like it'll be more likely for it to receive Ice Cream Sandwich. Though, since this will be my first tablet, and I probably shouldn't spend too much, right away on my first, I'm wondering if it's likely that once the Honeycomb, and Ice Cream Sandwich source codes are out, that there'll be more development for this, maybe even some Cyanogenmod 8, or 9 or whatever it'll be. So, anyone have any opinions on this or anything? I'll be thankful for any responses.

Oh, also, does anybody know, or can at least guess at how much the 2 version's keyboard will be?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
My guess is the alien race that crash landed in roswell, new mexico was from a planet called Antutu about 45 light years away.

Why in the world would you want us to "guess" about anything if the company hasn't said anything about this? There's no secret to this. We don't know. Anyone who claims to know is a damn liar... just like every evangelist who claims to know god's will and go out by the masses to vote against gay rights.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username235:
Damn dude. Just asking for suggestions. Thought maybe someone might at least know something and have advice. Sorry to bring out someone who's a major **** about it though. Definitely don't want this device with guys like you on it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Asus has given hints here and there, probably to keep their stock holders happy. But there has been no definitive confirmation on anything. The only thing we know is the TF2 will be around $500 and the TF1 will remain it's current price. Meaning there will be no price drop.

I'm telling you this now. That's all the info out there. Anything else anyone says will be either guesswork or lie.

Look, man, I'm just drawing a parallel here. It's human nature to see patterns and parallel. There are those who claim to know exactly the day and hour the TF2 will be released (any day now, guys) just like there are those who knows exactly what god is thinking and then all the sheeps go out to vote by the masses to oppress a minority group of people. It's all guesswork and lies.

I'm convinced it won't come until next year. There are those who are convinced the TF2 will be here in October... at least they were convinced a couple months ago. Your guess is as good as anyone's.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username235:
Thank you. That's much better help now. All I needed. Now, on to the waiting.
[Thunderbolt General] starscream86:
so this morning I flashed the BAMF SoaB ROM and have had no data connection all day long.. after restoring multiple old back-ups and changing radios I still get no data connection other than Wifi..

is anyone else having problems like this? thinking it might be a Verizon network issue.. other friends with Verizon LTE 4G phones in my area arent having problems though..

Just un-rooted and s-on back to stock.. still no data... :-( i think if its not up tomorrow im going in to Verizon
[Thunderbolt General] trikotret:
I think its a verizon network issue. I havent been getting 4G for the last couple of days. My phone keeps switching to 1X and 3G or even nothing. Just data completley. I check with my other freinds in my area, they have 4G so its really weird. Dunno what to do.. sigh
[Thunderbolt General] jbh00jh:
The VZW data network has been down off and on for 2 days nationwide. Nothing wrong with the rom.

Sent by my HTC LTE 4G Thunderbolt

BAMF Soab 3.5 v1.02
[Thunderbolt General] trikotret:
It be nice for them to had tell us. I am getting a replacement since the tech guy thinks my phone is bad since i replaced the 4G sim card...sigh
[Thunderbolt General] starscream86:
Good to know thanks.. maybe I will try to convince the kid behind the counter at my local Verizon store to give me a replacement anyway ;-) mine is getting a little scratched up lol..

Wonder why this only affects some phones.. like the other guy said .. my friends LG Revolution is just fine.. no 4G in my area yet but at this point is be happy with any data at all... I think Verizon has just broken my user agreement.. haha
[Thunderbolt General] starscream86:
Well data is back today and actually seems a bit faster than it ever was.. I guess I'll have something to do tonight re-rooting and flashing SoaB again.. that ROM was pretty awesome
[Thunderbolt General] trikotret:
not for me. Im still stuck at 3G. Pathetic
[Thunderbolt General] recDNA:
Describes my experience exactly. I nandroided back to stock rooted from bamf forever and data came back....for a while then the same nonsense all over again. I hate 1X
[Thunderbolt General] trikotret:
Today when I switched to my replacement, 4G showed up right away. Its been on all day. I guess I did have a bad phone :(

I don't know what happened but my PC is not detecting my SGS II now. It was okay before like a week ago when I updated it to 2.3.5 via Kies. And now out of a sudden the PC is not detecting it.

i) I've already turned off the debugging mode on my SGS II

ii) I've already uninstalled Kies, Samsung USB drivers and reinstall them but nothing work.

iii) Deleted all the drivers from Hardware Manager.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boo_Wii:
got another computer you can try plugging it in to? or even see if loading windows into safe mode will detect it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] vilasman:
I am having this issue... I can be typing along in swiftkey, thumb keyboard or the built in key board and after awhile the process of keying just goes crazy. I will hit a particular key like say n and all of a sudden 5 or 6 other random letters will show up. Or some spaces or some punctation marks or numbers. And once that starts it is hard to stop it. Every word I try to write just shows up as all kinds of crazy letters.

Anybody else experience this?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kardain:
Not on my flyer, but my N1 will sometimes freak out and misregister key presses. Turning the screen off and back on seems to fix it though.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
I use swiftkey and have never seen this problem. Have you tried the stock keyboard? does the problem occur there?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] vilasman:
Problem can occur with stock keyboard or swiftkey. I am having a dog of a time typing this. It seems to be a function of typing for a long time.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Pensionaru:
I know this thread is old, but i am having the exact same problem and i dont know what its causing it. Do you think it might be the touchscreen itself? Or maybe the keyboard app? A custom rom would solve the problem? Is it a faulty device, or a characteristic of all the devices and there is nothing to be done about it?

I wantend to know what's the best version of android revolution to use with tmobile sensation and do I need to flash special radio for that Rom. Thanks in advance. Noob here trying my first Rom flash.
[HTC Sensation] xyqtt:
There is no best version. Try different roms. Different people have different needs. If you don't state more information no one can help you
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
well Best rule of thumb i guess would be to flash the latest version. you can see my signature for what im using. im on tmobile sensation as well.

But honestly roms are like getting a new car. find the one thats best for your a** on a long drive. ;) so no one can really tell you which one is best for you. just give it a go.
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
I am on the latest version of ARHD on the bone stock TMO radio and I am loving it.

I have never flashed a different radio with any ROM Ive used, and have never needed to.
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Thanks for all the info and suggestions, ill try do use the newest one.
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Does the signal got better when u use the latest arhd? I'm still on stock Rom but already s off and rooted but signal is not that great.
[HTC Sensation] AbrahamLinksys:
I've tried at least the last 10 versions of ARHD downclocked to 1.2, and the latest is the best. Both had the previous radio and the recommended, both worked fine for me, signal, voice quality, up/download speed are almost the same.

ARHD consumes very little power when screen off, but relatively more (compared to stock roms) when awake and using cpu/gpu intensive applications. For office use, you can get two days of battery life with no additional tricks (push exchange + HSDPA on)

Stability: almost zero fc-s, no lags, feels like a well optimized factory rom

From Sense roms, this is the best you can get.
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Thanks for the info. What is the latest arhd, I tried searching but there's too many threads about arhd and so confusing for a noob like me.
[HTC Sensation] AbrahamLinksys:
Its in the development section:

[ROM] Android Revolution HD™ 3.6.2 XE | 4.1.3 Sense 3.5 | High Quality & Performance

There are two current versions, the 3.6.2 is based on sense 3.0, 4.1.3 is on sense 3.5, but its a test rom, download and use the 3.6.2. Read the first posts thorougly and you may find all the answers for your questions.
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Thanks again my friend. Can I pm you if I have questions and needed help? I'm assuming your on tmobile US network too right?
[HTC Sensation] AbrahamLinksys:
T-mobile, but in Hungary :)

All members are here to answer you, but you should start off by learning the basics from the noobproof guides or searching them, because someone probably answered your questions.
[HTC Sensation] jag233:
I am fairly new to all this too, so far I have tried Leedroid, insertcoin and all the latest revolution roms. By far the most stable and smoothest for me is the latest 4.1.3, very pleased indeed with it.
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
I haven't noticed the signal being better or worse honestly. My 4G data seems a bit better with ARHD though.
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Are you using the 4.1.3 version?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

If you look in his signature,it says ARHD 3.6.2 XE,which is the version using base 2.3.4 and Sense 3.0

The alternative one is version 4.1.3. which uses base 2.3.5 and Sense 3.5

If you check ARHD [OP] 3.6.2 is available in post 1,and 4.1.3 is in post 3

:)
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Thanks I didn't know that.
[HTC Sensation] TopJimmy2U:
Noob question,

I have ARHD 4.1.3 on my phone with the suggested radio, if I flash back to the stock rom or a different rom do I need to change the radio? and if so what radio would I flash? I'm a Tmo US customer.

Thanks,

Jimmy
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Changing ROMS has no affect on the radio.

There is no need to change the radio to an earlier version,unless you are having serious problems with the one you have installed.

:)
[HTC Sensation] TopJimmy2U:
Thanks, it just said that you should use a matched radio and I'm not sure what that meant.

As far a problems before changing the radio, the radio is for 3g-4g connection, cell service or both?
[HTC Sensation] jag233:
Mate there are no short cuts to learning how to root, flash roms etc etc, go onto the revolution thread and read read read, you will learn so much, I did.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

You are right about the matched radio,but most devs match the ROMS to the latest radios.

:)
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Isn't it the arhd Rom comes with a matching radio if you flash the Rom?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Yes ,they are matching,but you must still flash them separately.

:)
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Is it mandatory to flash the radio? I'm planning to flash arhd 4.1.3 and I'm on tmous service do I still need to flash the radio?
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
This is my radio number 10.56.9035.OOU_10.14.9035.01_M and I'm still on stock sense tmobile Rom, already rooted and s off. I just want to ask if I need to flash a different radio after I flash the ARHD ROM
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

If you are planning to install ARHD 4.1.3,this is what mike has to say:

With 4.1.x ROMs I strongly recommend flashing 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 radio

--- Using a "non matched" radio could have a negative effect on performance, battery life & signal strength ---

--- You don't have to flash RIL files for recommended radio. It's already in the ROM ---

--- You would need S-OFF in order to do it properly ---

The link for the new radio is under the download link for the 4.1.3 ROM,in the THIRD post of the ARHD THREAD

:)
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
I did flashed the arhd 4.1.3 Rom and the matching radio but it seems my phone runs slower than it was when I'm still on factory stock Rom. Any chance u might know what's causing my phone to run slow. I flashed arhd because they said it will make the phone run smoother and faster but its the other way around.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

For sure the radio update is NOT causing your phone to be slow.

4.1.3 is still only a test ROM,therefore not yet 100% optimized.

May I suggest you try 3.6.2

For me its running sweet.

You may also wish to wait a little while,because mike is in the process of cooking new ROMS.

4.1.4 changelog has just been posted.

No doubt,there will be an update for the 3 series as well.

Both are using new kernels,and this always improves speed.

:D
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Thanks for the info. Ca I still go back to factory stock meaning out of the box stock Rom and ill just flash it again til the new arhd Rom comes out, its really bothering me seeing my phone slow like this. Can you help or point me on the right direction on how to restore to stock tmobile out of the box Rom. Thanks in advance my friend
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

I'm not sure where to find a stock ,out of the box tmob rom.

My advice would still be to flash 3.6.2. HERE

It will take 15 minutes,and you will see a difference.

:)
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
I'll try your advice hope this will ease my burden lol. Thanks again for the support.
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
I have literally never flashed a different radio with any of these ROM's. Never had any issues whatsoever.

Hi, this was also my question which I asked in my, 7days earlier..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1298462

Since this thread has been getting more responses than mine, maybe we can continue here?

Q2 has been answered already so we'll leave that out.

My phone model is Z710e..already flashed ARHD 3.6.3..now its just the fear of flashing the recommended radio..
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Just underneath where you downloaded 3.6.3,is the radio download.

If you did revolutionary s-off,then you have all the files necessary for radio flash.

Download the radio zip,and extract it to your desktop.

READ THE READ ME!!!

Follow the instructions CAREFULLY AND EXACTLY,and everything should be fine.

:)
[HTC Sensation] townay:
Yeah, I've already rooted, s-offed and flashed ARHD 3.6.3

I just dont know if my radio is safe to flash since my telco is a Taiwanese telco called FarEasTone. My radio version is 10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M. Is this version safe to flash ?

Thanks :)
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

As far as I know,radios work worldwide.

Essentially,you have the same phone/hardware as me in Europe.

If you want more information,and maybe a different perspective,read THIS THREAD

I must caution you that flashing a radio does carry some risk.

But if you follow the READ ME and instructions to the letter,you should be alright.

:)
