I can confirm that this file...

SHADO_X6_3.2.6_SHADOW_BP_C_02.06.00R_AP_BP_Flex_21_signed_secure_cell_south_1ff_P3_USERBLD.sbf.gz (unzip with 7z or something to get rid of .gz)

...will work for Cellular South / CSpire. Nothing else I tried would work but this one did. If you do SBF with it and reboot, you need to make sure to do another factory reset or it will look as if it did not work, but you will notice that it is no longer rooted.

After you SBF and reset, you will though, have to dial *228. It will reprogram and activate.

There are Verizon 2.3.5 SBF files but I have yet to see a CSpire 2.3.5 SBF. Doesn't mean there isn't one, I just haven't seen one.
[Droid X Android Development] Sippi4x4man:
ngholson tried the above sbf file and he got stuck at the bootloader, has anyone else tried it?

[Droid X Android Development] ngholson:
yea this went very bad for me. the phone was preloaded with 2.2.2 but i had updated to 2.3.5, sbf'd using above file, result = brick.
[Droid X Android Development] Sippi4x4man:
I'm specifically referring to the files located here: Motorola Milestone SBF Files

Has anyone tried these? The site says that it is for Cellular South

There are two files, a .zip and a .sbf.gz
[Droid X Android Development] Rocheforte:
I believe that's the very same file myself and ngholson used to try to sbf back to 2.2 (rsd lite and linux). I strongly recommend against that file as it has bricked 2 phones on my end, one with 2.2 and the other was preloaded with 2.3
[Droid X Android Development] icephreaq:
Can this be used with with RSDlite to restore a bricked MilestoneX? My first attempt at a ROM change was less than successful and I can not get the phone into recovery. On power up it goes straight to the bootloader and home+power = /!\ but no recovery with volume buttons. I've got alot of experience with HTC phones but this is my first foray into Motorola land. Suggestions?
[Droid X Android Development] D-man3490:
There's a 99% possibility your going to have to go to cspire and do a warranty exchange. Everyone else who has run into your problem has had to do the same.
[Droid X Android Development] ngholson:
megaupload was seized by feds, 1st post updated with new link
[Droid X Android Development] Sippi4x4man:
Does anyone have a copy of the sbf files for this? All links have been shutdown....got a brick......
[Droid X Android Development] blkhwk5177:
how flash rom do i rename to update
[Droid X Android Development] Rocheforte:
If you're on C-Spire, I strongly recommend you don't flash any roms unless a. you have a tried and tested sbf that has so far eluded the rest of us or b. you're comfortable with doing a number of warranty replacements as you are likely to brick the phone.
[Droid X Android Development] Sippi4x4man:
I didn't try the SBF until it was a last resort. I attempted to restore a nandroid backup and after I did the phone went into bootloop. I even went into the stock recovery twice and performed a factory reset but still got stuck in bootloop afterwords. After I tried everything I could, I did the SBF and got the bootloader error. This all happened on my Milestone X, I warrantied the phone out and C Spire sent me a Milestone X2 in it's place. Just waiting patiently now from some devs to get the thing rooted, otherwise I'm not messing with it anytime soon
[Droid X Android Development] McHenry_kramer:
Milestone X2???

You said you got a Milestone X2 from CS? Not a Milestone X?
[Droid X Android Development] Sippi4x4man:
Yep. C Suck sent me Milestone X Warranty replacement, however, it was no where close to being new. The replacement phone had scratches all over it, it had some sticky residue on the back of the camera and the lcd kept twitching and flashing. I took it to the Gulfport office and not a single store in Harrison County had an X replacement available and that any phone I got would be a downgrade. I explained to them how unacceptable this situation was and the rep offered to check with other local stores for an X2. It just so happened that the Biloxi Store had 1 X2 in stock and they gave it to me.
[Droid X Android Development] icephreaq:
Can any of you CSpire guys hook me up with the Blurcamera.apk from your X? Was leading around with Liberty Customizer and AOSP camera works but the version of Blur Camera that comes with it doesn't work and I neglected to back it up. AOSP camera works well but can't shoot 16:9 stills :-(

i have a droid-x MB810 and im currently running 4.5.605 stock vzw rom

i used to run the ALLTEL MB809 Rom on my DX all the time (i believe it was froyo 2.2)

anyhow i could SBF from VZW 4.5.596 GingerBread down to the ALLTEL ROM mentioned above and back and fourth

whats the problem from going from stock vzw 4.5.605 to that new C-Spire by SBFing like i used to.

I dont use my phone for cell service but if i ever sell it i want to be able to restore it to a working condition.

while im using it only for wifi and skype i really dont want moto blur crap (just slows the phone down)

so i am wanting to run the most current stock firmware for the MB809 unless someone knows a current stock firmware for the MB810 that dont have moto blur crap.

anyhow please let me know if going from the vzw to the c-spire firmware will brick it or if there is some procedure i need to do so it wont brick it.

thanks
[Droid X Android Development] icephreaq:
I'm now on my 4th Milestone X from CSpire. Thank god they don't ask too many questions when warranty replacing LOL! I've given up on doing anything fancy with this phone. I'll just enjoy the things it can do :-)
[Droid X Android Development] m16-maniac:
so the cspire rom for mb809 / milestone x wont work with the droid-x / mb810 without locking up?

just to clarify

i have a:

Droid-X / MB810

Firmware = 4.5.605 from verizon

Phone is NOT rooted

can i SBF the CSpire Firmware onto this phone?

thanks
[Droid X Android Development] icephreaq:
If you are running Gingerbread you will not be able to use that SBF. If you are on Froyo you could theoretically use it but it will flash a CSpire radio etc.
[Droid X Android Development] McHenry_kramer:
I went through 3 C Spire Milestone X phones when they gave me a Samsung Galaxy S Showcase SCH-i500. Was hoping they'd give me an X2 but apparently they will have the i500 in stock forever! At first I was disappointed, but after a little reading around found that the i500 is super easy to hack! I'm running Kang's Glitched ICS nightly and am more pleased with this i500 than I ever was with the X even with ICS! Mind you that the camera and audio input never worked on the X with ICS. Motorola has some nice hardware but they're too hard to hack.

anyone out there still have the Blur_Version.3.2.6.MB809.ACG-CellSouth.en.US.zip file posted up anywhere? I don't seem to have it around anymore and I need to rip some stuff out of it.

I don't have a version of the CellSouth update, but here is a link to the Appalachian Wireless package for the same update. Unless you are needing some specific branding, it should work to pull stuff out.

If they were synced with your Google Account, they will be back automatically after a sync. If not, and hadn't backed them up, you will have to enter them manually.

removing vodaphone logo apps

Hi

This is my first post on this forum. I want to remove the vodaphone labelled apps on my ex contract Galaxy S11. Do I have to root the phone do do this or is there another way to remove these?

My phone details are: PDA I9100 BUKJ3 Phone: I9100 BUKI1 CSC I9100 VODKI2. I have found the official ROMS for carrier branded firmware to download ODIN Flash and the stock kernal information but am unsure about my competence to flash my phone without wrecking it. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Many thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
You got 2 choices:

1) Freeze bloat with Titanium back up pro ( root needed ).

2) Flash an unbranded ROM with Odin (no root) or Mobile Odin (root needed).

Carrier logos removal

Thank you for that. The suggestion of using an unbranded ROM with Odin without rooting may be what I am looking for. I have uninstalled some of the unnecessary apps (trial games etc) but realise that the carrier has installed additional "helpful" logos for shopping, updates, music shop and also various "suggestions" in Play Store, none of which are of any interest to me and I would like to remove oe uninstall. I have never tried to get into the innards of this smart phone which I value and am concerned that I might make my phone unusable if I mess up. Where would I find an unbranded ROM that I could use with Odin along with the absolutely essential idiot proof instructions for their use?

Thank you for your patience.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] moom999:
just go to any mediamarket in Germany and give it back if it’s within the 2 week and get new one from there

If you don’t want to give it back or you can’t, just look for any samsung service partner near you and go there (samsung.de/de/support/servicelocations.aspx)

Here in Dresden we have service shop that repair the handy if its simple problem in 1 hour if they can’t then they send to Samsung service

i want Bootloader unlocked ?? How ??
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
There is an SBK for the older TFs, up so B70 serial number (but not all B70s). The SBK allows you to use the bootloader, but it technically isn't unlocked. If you have this version, the TF is practically unbrickable.

The SBK for the B70 and above isn't released, so nvflash isn't useable. However, there is a root exploit via ASUS backup. With no access to the bootloader, this can be risky because it's easy to soft brick.

In terms of true unlocking, I'm not sure you can flash another bootloader. Who knows, maybe you can? I think in terms of nvflash, knowing the SBK is essentially unlocking the bootloader.

I don't use sense so can't recommend a kernel. Snq maybe?
[General Questions and Answers] blacksparro:
Forgive me if these questions are elementary or if they don't even make a lot of sense. I'm not claiming to be a hardware genius by any means, in fact I'm quite the opposite.

My first question is whether or not it is possible on an android device to RAID the internal partitions in any formtat? I think this would require two flash sources and my question then is whether or not, if the hardware was theoretically able to support it, the operating system would support a situation attempting to boost read/write speeds utilizing a RAID setup. Maybe there isn't even a benefit to doing this with flash? If there is, what would be some of the benefits, and conversely, drawbacks of this?

The next question I have is what the capabilities of bluetooth 3.0 are. Specifically, can BT 3.0 be used for 1080 video playback? And can BT be used in something like fastboot?

Thanks in advanced to anyone willing to field these.
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
To achieve higher performance we would probably go for a RAID0, the obvious drawback here is that if one of the memories fails, all data is lost.

With the hardware its not that much of a problem if it supports raid, but rather if the systembus has the bandwidth for it to be worth it.

There is 'MDADM' a software raid solution for linux.

You could try to compile an android kernel with the mdadm module loaded...

In the end though... why all the effort...

Why do you need this :-).
[General Questions and Answers] blacksparro:
Hi,

Thanks for the response. Well what I'm getting at here is trying to think of ways to enhance a phone's performance without this arms race of faster and faster processors that ultimately consume more battery life with each successive increase in performance. Much like the SSD and SATA did for desktops, we should maybe focus on other areas in which phones get bottlenecked and let the chip engineers worry about smaller and more efficient instead of faster and faster.

There's a serious problem with smartphones and that problem is battery life. I'll be willing to bet that the overwhelmingly vast majority of consumers are willing to give up things that (albeit may seem necessary to us devs for our fun) are simply not very much used by the every-day consumer that doesn't even know the difference between Gingerbread and Honeycomb. I think HDMI is one of them and if BT3.0 can transfer 1080p then what's the point of having so many features in a phone that can be done by one and wasting valuable space for that additional few hundred mAh of battery power?

Most of the phones that are coming out right now do not need to get smaller, I think the market has a sweet spot for thickness and size of devices and these phones are in there--but the batteries are not. I don't know about you but just about everyone I know complains about battery life and I would kill for a phone that can go 2 or 3 days without a charge.

[General Questions and Answers] dellenrules:
Stay away from task killers. They actually do more harm than good.

Check out an app on the market called tasker. Helps you to manage your battery more efficiently.

Stay away from task killers.

Bluetooth 3.0 allows a faster streaming of data when used to network information between Bluetooth devices.

Essencially yes. You can stream 1080p videos using it... but... the device your streaming it to/from needs to support the standard as well.

Ex. You decide to teather your tablet to your 4G phone via Bluetooth to watch 1080p YouTube videos.

Your phone supports 3.0 and you tablet is also 3.0. Streaming will be nice and fast.

But if one of the devices is a standard prior to 3.0, you 3.0 device will transmit at the fastest capable speed of the lesser network

I hope this helps.

And by the way,..

Stay away from task killers.

I ma relly disappointed:(
[Xperia Arc General] chongbh:
Sorry to say that those comparsion is a bit of bias towards iphone 4S.
[Xperia Arc General] zangetsu2188:
Its a CMOS sensor, not CCD. The phone they used to test is the arc S.

I read their review of the arc S and gsmarena commented that the camera output of arc S is somewhat different from the arc. The arc's camera performed better.

You may try checking the reviews of arc and arc S if you want.

The high JPEG compression is one issue here as majority of the pictures ranged from 500KB to 1.80MB (based from my experience and all photos are full 8megapixels)

I tried camera advance and camera fx, you can choose the JPEG compression but when I viewed it on PC at 100% magnification the picture has the same details as the default camera app.

I think the JPEG format processing of the arc itself is the problem. The X10 has more details and larger file size btw.

Perhaps gsmarena used the default settings of the camera (auto scene recognition) during their test. They did not bother at all to choose manual settings imho.
