[HTC Wildfire S] csoulr666:
Don't even THINK about doing that!!!!!!That's ONLY FOR THE CDMA WFS.It can BRICK your phone
[HTC Wildfire S] Lt.Win:
He's trying that for the explorer not the WFS.
[HTC Wildfire S] jitin02:
No it won't brick my phone.

Already tried it , explore won't accept the files

Even tried with files from my ROM.zip which comes from ruu . But nothing just happened

Just talked to customer care and they say there will be fota for unlocking for all devices , also read that on official page of HTC on facebook by CEO that they will be no more locking bootloaders

[HTC Wildfire S] MorRoquen:
Can you please post a step by step tutorial of what exactly you did to root your HTC Explorer? Any files you downloaded that directly impacted the process etc as well.

It'll be very helpful for everyone with the same problem. Thanks in advance!
[HTC Wildfire S] jitin02:
How i rooted it

Nothing below is made by me , i am just posting tutorial. files in a310e recovery are made by some chinese.

i take no responsibility of u ending up having a heart attack that u bricked it or u ending up having fused balls "gosh i bricked it:D;)

Steps that i did:

Most important your bootloader should be unlocked via htcdev.com. many say device is not listed so it will not be unlocked. but mine is also not listed and i am unlocked. try the process your self, it will not brick the device.

1. http://bbs.anzhi.com/forum.php. Firstly, sorry if posting other website links is against rools or something. please point me if it is . but this is the website(chinese XDA,) opened it in google chrome so i can get english translation.

2. found recovery (english and chinese both)

3. download from here http://www.4shared.com/file/Prd4RKb8/A310E_Recovery.html

a. take ur htc explorer battery out and put it back

b. press volume down and power at the same time , until u see a screen with three android below.

c. now put ur htc explorer into fastboot mode and connect via data cable.

4. assuming u r in fastboot mode with htc explorer connected, Run "recovery.bat" and wait until it says all done or something meaning similar

5. Now, after its all done . switch of ur device and again press volume down button and power at same time.

6. now from the 3 android at below menu select recovery option (scroll using volume keys) as u select the recovery option, the device will reboot. DONT WORRY, RELAX , Clock Work Mode recovery u come up.

7. (follow below to root), go to "Mount and storage" and select mount data and mount system. and connect ur device to usb, download the attachment "superuser" and extract files in its folder (i mean all the files) to ur platform-tools folder of ur adb or wher ever u r having the fastboot and adb files and stuff and open cmd window and input following commands. {i am assuming that u know how to use adb, if not search google and if still not post it here i will try to help}

"navigate to ur adb folder. for example i did.

cd\

cd android-sdk-windows\platform-tool\

adb push bash /system/bin
adb push profile /system/bin
adb push su /system/bin
adb push busybox /system/xbin
adb push su /system/xbin

Now if all gone well you are rooted. when u switch on ur device if in case something comes up on ur notification bar and says su binary outdated. please click it and update, i mean folllow the procedure it will show.

EDIT: Dropbox link changed and working link copied
[HTC Wildfire S] jitin02:
and yes one more thing i will personally suggest please go to the chinese website and search for ur device (if other than ecplorer) there are stuff present
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Im proper disappointed with htc and blame them completely for the lack of development for our devices.

I think this will be the last htc i purchase.

Htc say they listen, well maybe they need to clean their damn ears out cause they obviously can't hear us.

Maybe we haven't spent enough money on a more premium device and they think we don't deserve an unlocked device for that reason alone (GREEDY).

well did they not stop to think maybe these phones were some users first experience of htc and android and that because of the whole locked bootloader fiasco many users feel let down and will move to a different manufacturer.

If i bought a new car (just as an example), would it be ok for the manufacturer to limit the speed when in fact i paid good money and should be able to run it with no restrictions, cause if im not mistaken it now belongs to ME!

my property, let me do what the hell i want with it!!!
[HTC Wildfire S] No.12:
I agree.This is probably my first and LAST htc phone.
[HTC Wildfire S] *se-nsei.:
yep, for sure.
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Also thought i would mention I didn't get this phone based on price, i got it for its size/form factor after moving from a nokia and being a nokia buyer for years.

I did not want a 4" + screen.

Also bought my son a wildfire s as he was impressed with size and function.

Then bought my wife the chacha.

So that will be 3 phone sales lost next year to another manufacturer if htc don't sort this out pretty soon.
[HTC Wildfire S] jitin02:
What a wrong/bad choice u have sir:D
[HTC Wildfire S] imlgl:
I might be getting a Galaxy S II for my birthday so my WFS will be sold and I will be moving on to a phone which is unlocked. Samsung FTW!
[HTC Wildfire S] *se-nsei.:
SGS II is a massive jump :p
[HTC Wildfire S] imlgl:
Yeah, I hope it's worth it. I have had this phone for about 8 months and nothing has really happened in the dev scene. I was one of the first that had S-off due to being an xtc clip beta tester.
[HTC Wildfire S] Lt.Win:
Well, enjoy your S II. Do tell us how it feels xD
[HTC Wildfire S] Lt.Win:
My last and First HTC phone here. To all who agree, reply back.

Damn, i hate 'em.
[HTC Wildfire S] cpie20:
Me too im going to samsung or iphone..
[HTC Wildfire S] Lt.Win:
iPhone is way too much lol xD my next phone is a Samsung. Definitely.
[HTC Wildfire S] MohamadKarbi:
I bought it for my wife. I was shocked with low internal memory. I said it's ok I can install custom rom and remove unneeded apps

However, as everybody here, I can't do it because of the locked bootloader and soff issue.

What the use of the smartphone if I can't install the apps I want. Updating the new facebook app with its own data will eat all the memory. Bad choice for HTC
[HTC Wildfire S] ONeill123:
Right, and htc is so slow, that we can wait a long time, that the bootloader will unlock by HTC self :(
[HTC Wildfire S] Nightshadow931:
That probably won't happen ever.

We're on our own.

By the way, just do factory reset if you have problem with low internal memory, it will free ~120mb.

Still not very much, but better than 20-30mb.
[HTC Wildfire S] No.12:
Yes,and install everything again. :D

[HTC Wildfire S] ONeill123:
Why u say this unhappily message????

:(:( :(
[HTC Wildfire S] *se-nsei.:
Because HTC have replied to all of our customer service emails either like this:

"We don't know, you have to stay tuned to our social networks for more info"

OR

"The HTC Wildfire S is currently not on our list for an unlock to be developed"

Only one service reply said:

"The unlock for the Wildfire S is currently under development" (this was before the one above came about)

Sorry to break it to you.

[HTC Wildfire S] Jamielawther:
@Eoghan I feel the same about Samsung... Wish I'd have waited to get the Galaxy W :'(. For Galaxy Ace all we have in terms of custom roms are CM7 and Samsung roms but heavily modded.. I miss the GT540 :( Plus, this phone sucks! Nice design, horrible software!. It smashed too .. Look in my sig:L haha

Swyped from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
[HTC Wildfire S] eoghan2t7:
haha just get a new screen and bingo working again :P

p.s. i thought i reconised your user name from somewhere then you mentioned the GT540 then i remembered you lol
[HTC Wildfire S] Jamielawther:
Its more complicated than that Ive been told by Samsung LOL. Im going to take it into a shop in Bangor in January haha. The dev community on the GT540 is still much better than the Aces! They have ICS! Samsung are as bad as SE were with the X10/X8 updates. No ICS for us. Has HTC released any plans for WFS ICS? :L

Swyped from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
[HTC Wildfire S] eoghan2t7:
They said all 2011 phones will get the update but I don't think the wfs will but I'm going to try a port mikes ics over and see how it goes ;)
[HTC Wildfire S] Jamielawther:
Haha I haven't even rooted my Ace!:L. I flashed CM7 once and now my CSC has changed from Three UK to FOP which seems to be some carrier in Spain .. Ugh. Even after restoring my backup and everything else, nothing. Really annoyed with it as theres a new update and baseband and all I cant get:(

I think every person that signed the petition should message HTC dev with a link to the page.

Only one message per person then I don't think it will count as spamming.

[HTC Wildfire S] ONeill123:
No, bc we want an unlocked bootloader. This is the soirce of the rom, maybe we need the source of the hboot and a htc certificate ;)
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Message I sent to htcdev:

https://www.petitionbuzz.com/petitions/htcbootloader

We have been waiting patiently for news about the Wildfire s bootloader unlock, but you only seem interested in more premium users and we are being left out with no news.

Will this be the same for ice cream sandwich? Will we be forgotten? With no hope of further development for our device.

Please a response would be very appreciated so myself and the community at xda developers know what to expect and if we should support HTC as customers in the future.

Please email ********@gmail.com

Thanks

Rob

So I await a reply.

Whether I get one, who knows.
[HTC Wildfire S] ONeill123:
Hmm, i hope you become an answer.

I will write sqme email tomorrow, better as wait only ;)
[HTC Wildfire S] Nightshadow931:
They're just going to say "we don't have any plans at the moment for that device, but stay tuned on the website and/or social network", or something like that, like they always do.
[HTC Wildfire S] ONeill123:
Maybe yes, we will see.

Hi, Im really interested to buy a KF, it look it no a big deal, but 199dls is, from my point view, excelent if we think about ROMs and the best place to do that, xda developers.

I just want to know a few thinks:

1.- Can I put kindle books (mobi) from my computer to KF?...

2.- Same before but with apk files, can I send .apks from my computer to KF and then install those apps?..

Please if someone know this answer me, and sry about my basic english
[Kindle Fire General] sgood1971:
1. The Kindle for PC, Kindle for Android, and e-ink Kindle all allow this so the odds are good that it will work. I use Calibre to convert my stuff to .mobi and add the Amazon ID so whispersync works.

2. Yes, sideloading is possible and there is an app called easy installer that makes it....."Easy" :)
[Kindle Fire General] ocovarr112:
thx, I ll buy this device then.
[Kindle Fire General] sgood1971:
Mine is supposed to be here tomorrow, I am pretty excited. Been watching package tracker all day.
[Kindle Fire General] thisisepic0727:
I'm new to this, but how do you add the Amazon ID as you described above so that Whispersync works? I've been searching on the web and I can't seem to find anything.

Thanks!
[Kindle Fire General] jasonvieira:
Just tried it on my kf and it works =)
[Kindle Fire General] sgood1971:
It's a plugin for the Calibre ebook manager it's called the Amazon Metadata Download Plugin.

From within Calibre, there is an edit MetaData button. You can choose to search lots of places, make sure Amazon is checked, but leaving the others checked as well doesn't hurt if you are having cover problems, it still gets Amazon ID.

Hope this helps.

Was it sideloading .apk's or copying .mobi that you tried. Grats on getting your Fire already.
[Kindle Fire General] jasonvieira:
i just uploaded the .mobi directly into the books folder that is on the fk mount
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rayv88:
I backed up my phone the other day by making a recovery file in CWM but when i went to restore it i couldnt find the file, it only showed old back ups from a previous phone on the sd card and not the one i had just made. It seems as if the recovery point was stored on the phone but I cant find it anywhere. Any thoughts?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Imadroider:
What version of cwm are you running? And is it the same version you backed up with. The reason I ask is that 5.0.2.6 won't backup or restore to the phones internal storage, only an external microSD card. That version is whats currently packed with the Rogue v1.1.1 kernel so you won't see the internal memory option to backup or restore. You'll need to flash or Odin a different kernel or at least a different version of cwm to be able to restore from internal memory.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rayv88:
well i'm able to see the internal and external but i cant find the recovery file. one time after clicking on a install zip from sd card>then scrolling up and down then going to back and then to backup/restore, it just popped up..but i cant duplicate that

But unfortunetly this theme is only available for the international version. I was wondering, though, would i be able to flash this theme if i was running an international based rom? Or might this theme even work with the stock AT&T rom? And if not, is there any way I could make it work?

Thanks a ton for the help! =D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:

[Nook Color General] jalexishg:
I like the the idea of having ICS on my nook color but I like Honeycomb UI and the TAB feel over ICS (ICS is build for cellphones and tablets). Idk but I rather have Honeycomb over ICS on my Nook Color.

I'll love to see a lot of new roms in the next coming months for the nook color, we have 2 new source codes to play with.

[Insert your HC / ICS hating comment HERE]
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
Lol there is 0 point in using Honeycomb especially now that ICS is out. Now it is just a waiting game.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color General] Nburnes:
ICS for tablets acts just like Honeycomb, just with ICS looks. There is no reason to want Honeycomb.
[Nook Color General] patruns:
There is no reason to develop Honeycomb for anything that didn't come with it from the factory. There are very few apps written for it because they have to be specifically written for it. With the limited devices out there that came with it, app developers pretty much ignored it. ICS is supposed to change that by letting developers create one app and letting ICS handle how it plays on tablets and phones.
[Nook Color General] swaaye:
You can run most apps on Honeycomb. I've used a few devices. I don't like HC because fullscreen includes the button bar. I hope that has been changed.

ICS will surely benefit from HC breaking in app developers to the various changes.
[Nook Color General] patruns:
Yes, but you can't run Honeycomb apps on Froyo or Gingerbread. That is why there are not many in the market.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
No, but you can hide it. AFAIK it's separate from "full screen" as it requires separate handling (a way to bring the buttons back).

Here's ICS at 1024x600 @ 160dpi, scaled down to 600x352.. ICS looks very different at various res/DPI's though. :)
