[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jebus99:
He is referring to the fact that the power button acts as the selection button.

Recovery is accessed like the Nexus S, by powering on the device using Volume Up+Power. Options are navigated via volume up/down and selected using the power button. To go back, one has to scroll to the bottom of the list where the last option is back and select that using the power button. Nothing too complicated about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
how is this phone any different than all the other android phones with capacitive buttons on the bottom? all other android phones cannot use the capacitive buttons in recovery, so i dont see how this one is different. like the atrix, you use vol up/down, power button, and then back is at the bottom of the list.

there's not a single thing different about the galaxy nexus with respect to this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
That's not true. Many models have a functioning 'back' capacitive button in recovery. The G2/DZ being one of them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] altimax98:
And the thunderbolt lol.. it can use all of them too. I use my Droid 1 and its so odd without being able to use them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
droid 1 is just annoying using the keyboard but the recovery is in portrait. Bleh. One great thing about the G2 is using the trackpad for recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Don't forget that recovery is just a very slimmed down version of Android. If they wanted to, they could implement on-screen buttons etc. just like capacitive buttons can currently be used if implemented.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MontAlbert:
why not have the Team Win Recovery 2.0 on it?

I actually tweeted Agrabren about this possibility and he replied saying:

"The moment I can get one of those bad boys, it's getting #TWRP 2!"

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jebus99:
Phones like the SGS2 have 3 buttons - the volume buttons, home and power button. That lets the power button function as a permanent back button, with the home button taking the role of 'select'. Recovery can function in both 3 button and 2 button modes, with the power buttons function changing respectively. Nothing overly complicated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
The atrix can use all the buttons in recovery. Im sure the button issue is a non issue. It will be software or the typical volume and power hardware interface.

I voided my warranty and your nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sneakysolidbake:
Fascinate could use all four capacitive buttons which saves wear and tear on the physical buttons.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
damn i had no idea, the atrix capacitive buttons work in recovery? i've always used vol up/down and power button lol...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
Dude. Lmao. Yeah, and once you get the hang of it, your fingers start flying in recovery.

I invented cyberspace. You're trespassing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
This looks like recovery to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Sweet. My LG G2x works with the capacitive buttons. It didn't at first and I got use to the volume and power buttons. Not an issue.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hashcode:
Most recoveries use the power button as select.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samizad:
I'll miss my HTC HD2 with the volume buttons, power button plus a choice of 5 hard buttons to use in recovery mode.

But buttonless is the future.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Joshua_Brighton:
ClockworkMod

Has anyone tried ClockworkMod recovery that was recently released?

I've flashed it boot it boots into just a black screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Except the Nexus S I found. My coworker wanted CM7 on it and boy was that a pain in the ass. They don't even have root for Gingerbread. Had to downgrade and push tons of crap. Like 4 hours of ADB commands. Probably wouldn't have been bad cept conflicting instructions. Ended up in an IRC channel. LoL.

None the less, I hope to God the GN ain't that hard. I'm used to NVFlashing my G2x which takes like 2 seconds to throw a custom recovery on there.

Can't believe hoe complicated the Nexus S was to get a custom rom on there. Nexus One was a breeze too.

G2x - 2.3.7 CM7

Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
The Nexus S has fastboot oem unlock too. I don't see what the problem is. Should be exactly the same process as the N1 and now the GN.
[Motorola Droid 3] jarzy00:
i have learned so much on this site but there is one noob question i have to ask that i still dont fully understand... im wondering when rom developer recommends a "wipe" before flashing what are they refering too? I mean i understand wiping cache ive done that numerous times but i thought wiping data gets rid of everything on your phone? Is wiping data/factory reset the same thing? why would you want to delete everything on your phone in order to flash 1 rom.. maybe im missing something. I appreciate your replys!
[Motorola Droid 3] erismaster:
Wiping data is the same as a data/factory reset. Usually when switching between roms, application data is not compatable and will cause force closes. You can usually skip wiping data if flashing the same type of rom, eg, between blur roms, aosp gingerbread, aosp froyo. Sometimes you'll still get force closes and will need to wipe data anyways. If you use an app like mybackup root, you can backup all your apps prior to flashing a new rom, and restore just the app. This will prevent force closes, but you'll love any app data. But at least your apps aren't lost/forgotten.

[HTC EVO 3D] iCaptivate:
If I tether like 6-7 GBs of data whether it be 3G or 4G, will Sprint terminate my contract?

I'm asking because I need to tether because I'm having problems with Comcast and I refuse to go to AT&T. So yeah, will my contract get terminated or will they charge me more on the monthly bill?

Also, is roaming free on Sprint?
[HTC EVO 3D] DarkManX4lf:
If you have a tethering plan then I think 5GB is the limit.
[HTC EVO 3D] iCaptivate:
I don't. I'm tethering because it's unlocked, but when I check data it's over 2GB already.

I think that counts.
[HTC EVO 3D] iCaptivate:
73 views and no one can help me?
[HTC EVO 3D] cajones42:
If ur not paying for tethering then u dont have a 5 gb limit. Sprints data is unlimited. Roaming is free unless u really really abuse it without using much sprint data.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
Too much data usage is a reason for them to become suspicious. I advise towards limiting it. I personally don't tether, ever. Sprint is nice enough for unlimited data, I don't want to risk anything.
[HTC EVO 3D] unCoRrUpTeD:
I use about 6Gb a month, but I don't tether. That's all browsing and streaming on my phone. But they can check the packets and find out what device its coming from.
[HTC EVO 3D] mingolianbeef:
If you use an app like easy tether pro (like I use) or pdanet then I don't think that sprint can monitor data usage if you're not using their service to tether. My internet is off right now and I can only imagine the number of gigs I used in the last month or so downloading roms through my phone internet, not to mention all the gameloft games with data downloads I bought. Sprint has yet to come to me about anything so I'm in the clear., if I had to estimate, I have used over 7 gigs in just downloads alone, they doesn't include regular internet browsing on my phone and PC, so give that a try.
[HTC Sensation XL] steviesteve78:
Just got mine today, traded in the Galaxy s2 as I fell in love with the screen on the XL. The single core processor still handles the jobs I use the phone for but now I can squint a little less.

One issue, I have been unable to find a sim unlock code as yet. Most online services I have tried say they don't have the IMEI on their databases.

Anyone have any suggestions for getting it unlocked? I need to use 2 different SIMs to get coverage at both home and work!
[HTC Sensation XL] DanTehMan01:
What network did you get it with or was it an upgrade via CPW or P4U (in UK)?
[HTC Sensation XL] west2cool:
just got a confirmation from this site that they can unlock

http://www.unlockdata.co.uk/index.asp
[HTC Sensation XL] steviesteve78:
It was an upgrade from O2.

I tried the site you suggested but they don't have a record of the IMEI yet.

I have been waiting for O2 to offer the unlock key (which they do for free) but they refused cause my SIM hasn't been in the phone yet! Problem is, no coverage at home. I just drove out of town with the SIM in the phone and did some texts and gonna try O2 again... It's so frustrating.
[HTC Sensation XL] DanTehMan01:
That is annoying, especially for O2, they were really good with me back in the day,,,, lets see how Orange do now :D
[HTC Sensation XL] steviesteve78:
O2 have now accepted that I am using the phone and have said that they have to get the unlock key from the Manufacturer which could take a few days.... Oh well, a few days without calls/text won't hurt I suppose. It would be better if it could be unlocked like the Galaxy range tho. Can't wait for some decent ROMs without all the HTC guff.
[HTC Sensation XL] lucasex:
anyone know where to unlock???
[HTC Sensation XL] steviesteve78:
Received unlock code from O2 this morning. 7 days, but no charge!
[HTC Sensation XL] DanTehMan01:
Fantastico! thats my favourite price ;)
[HTC Sensation XL] west2cool:
did you get it post or email as im waiting on mines
[HTC Sensation XL] steviesteve78:
They emailed it to me this morning... Monday's aren't that bad after all!
[HTC Sensation XL] lucasex:
how did u done this???

o2 told me i need to a year with them:(
[HTC Sensation XL] DanTehMan01:
They should be able to sort you an unlock code (at a cost) but @lucasex is your phone brand spanking new on brand new contract? or have you been with O2 before etc?
[HTC Sensation XL] lucasex:
i havent been with o2 at all

its brand new pay as you go from o2

its a shame ive just pay 449£
[HTC Sensation XL] steviesteve78:
They unlock a contract phone free at anytime but with pay and go its gotta be 12 months before they unlock and they charge.
[HTC Sensation XL] west2cool:
just got my unlock code from O2 free of cost, was ordered on saturday
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
Unlockdata don't stock the code so don't use them yet also beware of others that say they do. Mobileunlocked is also very good so check them too. So many unlock scams online these days its unreal
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
Looks like for now only network can source the codes
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
well i tried the free unlock solution posted in the sensation forum and my code was not on my phone...............got the imei number with date above it LOL. oh well at least i checked. temp root turned perma root using evo3d temp root method.
[HTC Sensation XL] bonesy:
Why not email the developer on sensation forums and ask him to check your files, He will need you to upload a few but i believe he can do it
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
Ta for thought but the code isn't available for my device even on HTC database. Over my imei is the date so I'm outta luck.
[HTC Sensation XL] lucasex:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benrees21:
Ok call me dumb or whatever but I'm used to a different way the percent button works then it does on my NS. For example I'm used to entering: 200-10% and getting the result: 180 but on the NS calculator the result is 199.9 ??? I understand the percent button is working differently here, so can anyone tell me the correct formula for percentages on the NS calculator. Thanks.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woostyle:
I was recently shopping for a knock-around tablet and came across leaderinternationalinc dot com this little guy at Kmart. Yep, I said Kmart. When I asked the price and they told me $129, I said SOLD!.

So far it's been average in performance and had to do some trickery to get some apps installed (Android/Amazon Market, Pandora, Google Talk, etc.) and am still having some difficulty installing other apps. It seems as if they really want you to use their market and apps, some of which are okay, I guess. I got Netflix installed, but the audio/video isn't in sync and everything is a hue of blue.:eek: Might be a Flash Player issue - also which I can't seem to update.

Anyway, the bad news is I can't find a way to get in to bootloader or able to root this tab with oneclick. Hopefully they didn't lock this thing down to hard.

Additionally, since the screen is resistive, using a stylus makes it a bit easier to navigate. Worth the money so far!

I'm praying the brilliant dev brains here at XDA will purchase this one and create a simple root/rom that allows me to take this thing to the next level!

Anybody out there?

Were you able to get the standard Market installed on it? I was able to get it along with Pandora, Google Voice and a couple others (Netflix not working well) with a little trickery. Still can't get Google Talk and a few other things like an updated Flash.

If I can get a plain vanilla Froyo on this I would give this cheap little tab a solid B.

I know this doesn't have anything to do with my original [Q], but I thought I would share anyway...

I contacted Impression about another AC adapter... 1 isn't enough...

After I registered my device, they shipped me another for free!

Any devs out there for this one?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxnitro123:
just return it and get another one, a tablet thats $129 is probably not going to be great at that price.. other than the time hp touchpads were $99 :P
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woostyle:
Yeah, it's not the snappiest device I've owned, but makes a great desk-side companion. Mainly use it for Pandora, Weather, IM and a few other things...I'm generally still happy with it although I know it won't replace my primary device. Having the (free) second AC adapter is nice so I don't have to carry that back and forth. 2 hours of streaming music kills the battery dead.

Stay plugged in with this one.

Still hoping, praying that a dev picks one of these up...

What did you use to root? Superoneclick didn't work for me the last time I tried... Did it unlock the bootloader?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sactownsav:
I used super1click, the newest version. It didnt work the first few times, i ended up doing shell root first, then was able to achieve root as normal. It did seem to take a while.

Edit: I just rooted a 2nd i7.... had the same trouble with it just hanging during root. When it hangs, quickly unplug the usb the replug it in. Once it detects usb debugging again it will root properly and pass the verification at the end.

Hope that helps
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustomcgee:
Just attempted rooting it myself with Superoneclick.

Did shell root first and that went fine. Attempted normal root right after and it hung right at the end when it said the device was rooted and would restart. Unplugged and replugged the usb quickly and then it rebooted.

My i7 was definitely not rooted when it rebooted. Not sure what went wrong. Attempted it numerous times with the same result sadly. Did it hang right at the end for you or at a different point during the root?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tray7971:
Can you detail the process that worked for you? soon as I click root it goes to not responding??????
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sactownsav:
When it hangs at the end it never worked for me. Id suggest trying the different methods to root instead of auto....i just pretty much tried everything until i goot root to stick...if it hangs during root steps thats when to unplug and replug.

Sorry i dont have a more speific solution, but i did get two rooted like this

Oh and obviously double check usb debugging is enabled
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustomcgee:
Alright. Thanks for replying. Assumed if it was hanging at the end then it wouldn't work. Just wanted a confirmation on it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chris_DIAM500:
Have been reading through this thread and thought I'd share some tips.

First, the easiest way to root the device is to use Z4root. The reboot screens never appear, but the exploit does successfully run. Upon reboot, install SuperUser and you're all set.

As far as getting ADB connectivity, that one's a little trickier, but not impossible.

You'll need the standard Android SDK w/ JDK. Open up the SDK and download the the "Google USB Driver package", along with the "Android SDK Tools".

Once the driver has been downloaded, open "C:\<User Profiles>\<Username>\.android\ADB_USB.INI" and add the following line:

0x18D1

Save the file and then open "C:\<Program Files Folder>\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver\android_winusb.inf".

Add the following lines:

;Impression i7

%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_1F00

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_1F00&MI_01

;

Save the file and then restart ADB.

Make sure your Android Device is in Debugging mode and connect it to your computer.

You should now be able to run "adb devices" and it return something similar to:

In Windows:

List of devices attached

InfoTMIC-MID device

In Linux:

List of devices attached

???????????? device

A lot of features can be added by downloading the CyanogenMod's bundles of Google Apps. Voice Search works after getting the framework installed. IRIS even functions, but the TTS engine beeps randomly when encountering punctuation.

The camera only seems to work with the pre-installed photo app. Any other programs get a smears/deinterlaced version of the image on the screen and the device slowly begins to slow down eventually needing a reboot.

The most exciting part of this device for me is the USB port. The device accepts USB flash drives and recognized a Kensington Micro USB Bluetooth adapter's PNP id, but did not load the necessary stack/drivers to make the device useful. If we could get USB Bluetooth Adapter support, bluetooth would allow GPS support and this would be one heck of a device. I would be interested to see if there is support for a USB keyboard. I was reading that the stock Google Bluetooth driver stack support up to 250 different chipsets. If there were a way to get these drives and stack/UI loaded, omg. Freakin' potential.

There's a lot this little tablet can do by simply rooting it. I can't wait 'til the professionals get ahold of it. If you don't like the InfoTM Home screen, download LauncherPro and HomeSwitcher for a more traditional feel.

The latest version of YouTube from the Android market gives an error 400, not sure what causes it. I'm sticking with 2.0.26 with minimal quirks.

Personally, I'd like to see if we could come up with a custom 2.2 or 2.3 ROM for this and start pushing some envelops.

Happy modding!

Chris S.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woostyle:
Root worked! Had to shell root first, but it finally took. Now the bad news...I did a factory restore now I think it's semi_bricked. Screen is not responsive on lock screen unless I plug in usb. Once unlocked, the home screen won't load... Just flashes for a second and goes black. I can open the browser using the search button, but that's all I can do... And take a snapshot with the camera button. App drawer won't even open! Well, it was fun while it lasted... My only hope is if I can somehow dump a ROM to this thing.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chris_DIAM500:
if you can connect with adb, try running

adb reboot recovery

this should wipe out most of the changes you've made.

if that doesn't work, undo your previous root procedure and run z4root.

good luck!
