I recently got my arc unlocked (network-unlocked), and when i try to go into fastboot mode, my phone instead boots up, shows the sony ercisson screen and then shows a battery charging screen. Im trying to get into fastboot mode.

Help?

Is your boot-loader unlocked?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fcb13:
no, i am trying to get into fastboot in order to unlock it. I am wondering if its my firmware which is blocking fastboot from enabling?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Start from scratch and try again.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fcb13:
Can you explain? My phone is unlocked, but it wont boot into fastboot(LED doesnt turn blue) so i cant unlock bootloader
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Read the guides, if the phone came sim unlocked then its user error somewhere.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fcb13:
Im using this guide: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-unlock-bootloader-xperia-arc-play-neo-pro/

i am just unable to boot into fastboot. All i get in fastboot.exe is < waiting for device >
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Go to the first link in my sig, and you'll find a simple method to check if you can unlock in the standard way, try that and report back.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fcb13:
I did that, but i didnt see "bootloader unlock allowed:yes" in configuration, I didnt see anything of that at all. I saw SIM in Sim card, and there was a 0, if that means anything. Also, what firmware should i be on to check this?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
I think you'll have to use SETool then, ie remote unlock.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fcb13:
Nvm...flashed the newest firmware and checked it again, bootloader unlock allowed: no :(

Is there a way to get 4g on tether.

I am rooted
[Motorola Photon 4G] ghodzilla5150:
Unfortunately for now the only way that I have found is to pay for the Sprint Mobile Hotspot. I was Fortunate enough to have been Grand Fathered into Unlimited Mobile Hotspot Data because I have been a customer since 1997 and was not to thrilled when I was told it was going down to 5GB per month. I called Sprint, ended up speaking with a Retentions Manager (Politely) and she took care of me and kept me at Unlimited Mobile Hotspot Data. I was really upset and let it be known I would take my 3 lines to Verizon.

I had it for FREE on my OG EVO but needed Mobile Hotspot when I moved over to the Photon.
[Motorola Photon 4G] DualSportDad:
mine works through open garden tether.
[Motorola Photon 4G] evobb10:
Perroype3 if your phone os rooted. You can use free tether hotspot wifi from your phone to laptop. Go head search wifi tether app from market. Even with 3G or 4G

Good luck

Hello.

I'm looking for the modified HTC stock ROM that is wiped out of

everything

HTC bloated there/changed to AOSP apps. I don't want any of the HTC apps, sounds, icons, themes and lockscreen because I hate them.

The result should be the excellent stability kernel without anything I didn't installed myself.

Unfortunately, AOSP ROMs from kristofpetho or SelfKang do not meet the stability requirements and atm I have to pray to them to release something that will not annoy me with fc's of the apps I'm using.

Please, help if you can
[HTC Sensation] bobbymokie:
Last I checked cdtdroid made a nice senseless version of pyramid3d
[HTC Sensation] gustav30:
Melvin had made the beast Rom and senseless extreme. I believe they both used stock kernel. There is a video up on YouTube for the beast Rom. I think he stopped supporting them and went to the GS2 forums but they are pretty solid. I used senseless extreme for a while and it was great. But I had a sense calling again and am now on bulletproof.
[HTC Sensation] Laynee1:
Insert Coin new version 3.3.9 is with stock HTC kernel. Rom is pretty good.. Fast,smooth and stable..
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Use the Revolutionary process (S-OFF, CWM & SU) on a Stock ROM.

Then use: ROM Cleaner - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1217664

That way it's completely stock, just minus some stuff.

I'm looking for the modified HTC stock ROM that is wiped out of everything HTC bloated there/changed to AOSP apps.
​

This is slightly more than difficult as they're based on different frameworks (probably the wrong term). You need to either go Sense (cleaned in some manner) or go fully for AOSP. I know that ARHD has a Senseless cleaner, not used it personally as I went straight to CM7 when it was available.
[HTC Sensation] hepbhoe:
Unfortunately, all "no sense" variations of HTC ROM still keep the icons at least. Seems like it is just impossible to get rid of them.

Thank you for your answers. I'll wait for the stable AOSP ROM or the new Nexus - what will be released first.
[General Questions and Answers] btsgreg:
I'm not really sure where to post with the phone I have. I purchased a HTC Hero S and I can't seem to find the right forum for it. I found other HTC Hero forums, but the image for the phone doesn't match the one I've got.

My phone is quite similar to the HTC Evo, with a few differences in hardware. I'm interested in gaining root access, would following the guides there work out for me?

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] PMGRANDS:
I Don't think there's any Support for the Hero S...

[HTC Sensation] tangcla:
So I don't know what's just happened - I don't remember changing anything but as of yesterday, I can't hear anything in my calls, and they can't hear me. edit: There's no sound at all through the headset or speakerphone either.

Also the dialer has massive lag between number inputs.

What is causing it?? The phone is now no longer usable as a phone :(

I was running InsertCoin 3.3.8 and tried wiping, reflashing, restoring back to 3.3.7, and even tried going to MIUI! Still no luck. :(
[HTC Sensation] tangcla:
Slight update on the issue:

I noticed that if I put the phone on silent, then the lag in dialer disappears. It's as if the phone is lagging because it can't find an audio output source.

alright lets not yet ahead of ourselves yet, the SDK release does NOT make ics ready to develop on devices whatsoever, for example the cyanogenmod team has explicitly said they won't mess around with seriously romming based off of the SDK, they are waiting for the full source code, which is what we all should do too, just wait guys

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Jaytex24:
I get this too occasionally, all my nandroids do this. Let me tell you how fun it is to have to re-set up the entire phone after each different ROM I flash.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
Did you clear the system partition in mounts and storage before flashing a new rom?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sonikkuu:
Did you flash the correct kernel? Did you flash any kernel at all?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] leoilios:
Well this is an easy fix. Get the official cwm. I'm surprised no1 told you yet. The real cwm is 5.0.2.7 I think. Update with rom manager to the latest recovery
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
i haven't had any problem at all flashing ROMs with that version of CWM. plus, if you can't boot into any ROM you won't be able to use Rom Manager.

i might suggest checking that your system is mounted both before flashing the ROM, and before rebooting. i believe that would be found in 'Mounts and Storage' in recovery, and you would want it to say 'unmount' next to system, meaning that it is mounted. in some cases when you need to do that, you will have the problem you're having if you forget to check. good luck

Learn how to use adb to install the latest official cmw and you will unbrick your phone.

Any idea why this happens?
[EVO 4G Accessories] merchmonster:
Here is quick little story about the otterbox defender case I have. So I ordered mine the moment out was released last year. After	a month, the kickstand broke on me. Not a big deal. I didnt use it that much. Well about a month ago the rubber part started not fitting right.

I called up customer support at otterbox and told them what was going on. They have a one year - no questions asked warranty. Cs agent told me no problem they could take care of it. With in about ten days, I will have the new case at my house. And I dont have to send the defective one back.

I will definitely give otterbox my future business. Credit to them.
[EVO 4G Accessories] a senile fungus:
+1 they are awesome .

I totally didn't expect the service that I got from them.

~ I'm a fungi
[EVO 4G Accessories] merchmonster:
Yeah for sure fungus. They over delivered and made me a happy customer. As such I give them more business and recommend other people to them
[EVO 4G Accessories] colorado_al:
I have used Otterbox for a lot of items in addition to cell phone cases. They make great products and have great service.

I bought both the Defender and the Commuter to try out on my EVO 4G.

I thought the Defender was a bit too bulky for me. I think it is the best damage protection you can get, but I liked the Commuter better.

I still have the Defender, like new in box, been installed once. If you want it PM me with an offer.
[EVO 4G Accessories] nbock01:
+ 1

Bought my defender case from them and have been through 3 of them now. (kickstand issues) And have never had an issue with them and their customer service department.
[EVO 4G Accessories] SilverStone641:
I've also got the Defender for my phone. They've already replaced it once for the same kickstand/loose fit problems that everyone is experiencing.

Additionally, i was working under a conference table at work and rolled over onto the belt clip, breaking the lock-tab off. I emailed Otterbox and asked if there was somewhere on their website i could buy another. Instead, the agent mailed me a replacement. It should be here any day now. So far, their customer service has been phenomenal!

The defender is a bit too rugged for me however it's a very very impressive case, check out this video:

[Motorola Droid 3] mh73024p:
Hello everyone! I currently own a DROID 3 flashed with SteelDroid's 3.0 ROM. At the moment I am experiencing an auto-rotate issue when I place my D3 onto the car mount. For example, the car dock application rotates correctly, however, whenever I have my phone app or navigation app, it doesn't rotate 90 degrees. Anyway to fix this? If anyone has any documentation on how to do so, please link me...I will take it from there.

Also! chevycam incorporated the ICS music apk in his rom...when i try to access the music shortcut in the car dock apk it causes a force close issue. anyway to fix that? i would greatly appreciate anyone's input on this matter.

THANK YOU!
[Motorola Droid 3] dpwhitty11:
1) my Car dock does this too, I'm going to look into it probably over the weekend.

2) the music shortcut is still trying to open the old music app, so when it doesn't find it, it force closes. You can also scroll to the side and make your own shortcut for the new music app.
[Motorola Droid 3] lunacie:
Same problem here with auto-rotate. Was not an issue in SD2. Possibly power notification widget?

[Motorola Droid 3] mh73024p:
Yeah I ended up using a third part music app. Question, do I edit .apks with eclipse (doesn't have to be eclipse) so I can attempt to fix the music app location f/c issue? Seriously, let me know how I can help since you'll be looking into this yourself dpwhitty.
[Motorola Droid 3] blmetzger:
Anyone have an update on this, I have the same problem with the car dock.
[Motorola Droid 3] mh73024p:
I switched back to steeldroid 2.0...no issues there. I wish I could find the source of the problem...sorry
[Motorola Droid 3] blmetzger:
Liberty 3.0 works fine also.
[Motorola Droid 3] 640k:
it must not be reading the magnet position correctly. D3 still relies off of the magnet to identify dock status. i've verified this with a pendant and no dock. if the screen is set to NOT auto-rotate, and the keyboard is closed, maps/nav, etc., will always be portrait. apply a correctly positioned/polarity magnet and landscape is invoked.
[Motorola Droid 3] ChristianPreachr:
Any fix for this yet?
[Motorola Droid 3] ChristianPreachr:
There's an app on the market that allows you to force rotation on individual applications. Its my new best friend!!

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] happyoutkast:
Hello-

after seeing multiple questions on "what modem do I use" throughout here, I see one trend in the responses: it depends on where you live, etc....

so to make things a little easier, I would like to start a thread for people to post their modem files they're using, region, and how well it works as well as any other pertinent information. That way 2 people from the same region can save time and collaborate and people from central pennsylvania, for example, will be able to see that the KJ3 and KD1 modems both work in this area fairly well, KI3 not so well, and save other people in this area (and others) the trouble of "reinventing the wheel" trying to find the best modem file when someone in their area already has one working great.

So I'll start

Region: Central Pennsylvania, USA (york/harrisburg area)

Rom: octane v2.0 w/ gingerbread

Modem files tried: KD1 (stock, worked ok except in town for some goofy reason)

KJ3: works well, no issues so far, nice speeds, have yet to test all over the region, will update as neccessary

KI3: haven't had much luck with this one, it works but not as well as the other two from what I could find, but the difference is rather little

those are the only 3 I have tested, I do intend to test the rest of them for this region.

If you have tested modem files on your galaxy s 4g, please post what ones you used, your region, and how well they worked. Rom information would probably be useful too......hopefully this should make it easier for people as we'll hopefully have a single reference for "what works where best".... :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ultimakillz:
I think this is a great idea, but I think we need to set up some sort of standard to judge the speeds. One person's "good" may be another person's "poor" and yet another man's "pretty fast". Perhaps we should use something like SpeedTest.net for both WiFi and network speeds for example. I think having a set standard to judge speeds would make this idea worth while. I think it would be great to know which modems work best and where.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] happyoutkast:
Excellent idea, an agreed standard is key. I've been using speedtest.net app for mine, with about average 4mbps down and 2mbps up on 4g (with a few random odd network errors on upload test), 10+mbps down and 5mbps up on wifi. definitely better than stock ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
I guess this thread would be based on the best speeds and reception you ever received?

There's so many factors that determine how good a modem is that I stopped caring, lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ultimakillz:
Well, it really shouldn't be the best speeds, but the average. Maybe try 3 different tests on 3 different servers, throw out the high and the low, and post the middle (or post all three, whatever). That way we're not posting only the best speeds we're getting, which obviously aren't the speeds we're normally getting :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tehgyb:
Eastern PA here. Ki3 rocks for me. I spent an entire day using each modem, and test the new ones as they become available. I run multiple tests throughout the day with both speed test and wifi analyzer, so far ki3 has been top dog for me. I don't have access to my numbers right now (at work) but i have them all written down at home...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeacefulCalamity:
I've done almost everything to fox my battery life in this thing - you name it! I did Jug's 1% battery fix, I calibrated it by draining the battery and then unplugging to get the Question Mark battery symbol and charged from there, I got a fresh battery from Anker and charged it 24 hours prior to use, I flashed numerous ROMs in full battery charge, enabled JuiceDefender and underclocked my device off screen, and YET I STILL GET 3 HOURS OF BATTERY LIFE ON SCREEN. It's probably the most frustrating technological thing I've been through in a portable device.

My radio is 1.77.30.

I'm completely tired of this phone and its battery. Should I reflash the radio? Does anybody (from ALL these amazing stories of battery life of 7+ hours of on s screen moderate" use

post their setting of ROM radio and clock to better detail? I'm desperate for anything even if it comes to complete replication.

**edit**

UPDATE: I flashed Alien the other day. It's only been two days and I'm experiencing 4 hours and a half of on screen time on a single charge.

I carry an extra battery since their so damn portable. So in total I get 9 hours of continuous use doing anything (14 hours in call.) Not bad.

I'm looking for an atrix with 2.2 (froyo,) though. It's my last measure against battery health and this phone is the best beast of a phone I'd have.

I don't use Juice Defender, nor do I truly overclock at all (besides off screen). Syncing is off. Everything else is normal. I'm thinking of applying the SuperCharger update thing. It'll probably give me a slight extra boost and I'll have 10 hours of moderate use. (real moderate use, not in pocket for 10 hours) :D

So yeah. Underclock to 312 mhz Max off screen using CPU Tuner and use only one core. Manually enable data by using a widget on screen called Data Enabler instead of using that program Juice Defender. Flash Alien v4. And you're done. (oh, and use Supercharger script) - which I'll do later.

If you are constantly switching Roms like I am assuming you are doing. The battery life is going to be bad until you let one of them "Settle".

Once I did that the battery got quite a bit better over about a week.
