[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] GSLEON3:
Hey guys, I'm leaving XDA for awhile. Gonna be working with "him who's name shall not be spoken" over at the evildevnull website. Nothing against XDA, but I miss the xda that was b4 the original founders sold the site. I learned a lot here in the old BlueAngel forums & I want to learn more. So I am moving over to a more focused venue. If anyone cares to contribute, the Rezound & Vivid Hboots are very similar & I'm pushing for a Vivid section over there, but for what we need right now, Vivid or Rezound will do.

I am keeping the Vivid, just gonna focus the effort over there with a fellow SunDevil for now.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Very understandable. Best of luck with your future projects.I actually just registered with his forum a day or two ago to watch the progress. We'd very much appreciate it if you found root for us Vivid users as well. ;)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Aus_Azn:
I might be spouting stuff out of my rear end here, but I guess it's worth a shot.

Would there be a way, with temproot or otherwise, to spoof the phone into thinking that it is the hardware-identical Rogers device software-wise and getting the HTCdev site to unlock it that way?

Or if not, to find some way to run a Rogers P(whateveritis).zip through hboot to get it to recognise the phone as a Rogers device on the HTCdev site?

I'm in no way an expert (or even knowledgable) on this topic, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to throw this idea out there. As far as I've been able to gather, the Inspire's old GoldCard method won't cut it,
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ClippinWings:
it IS hardware identical...

this Think Tank, I think, is pretty much dead now that EvilDevnull is involved... might want to toss your idea out over there and see

(sorry, can't link to his site for reason's I will not get into here)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] iamnotagoldfish:
for those holding out hope that the Rezound will give us root, remember we do have different HBOOT versions. so while our root may end up being similar, it will almost certainly not be the same.

not to be a debbie downer... :(
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 8125Omnimax:
I am skeptical that anyone on these forums knows or speaks to anyone at HTC, all devices are unlockable, and before HTC put out a bootloader unlock on its website people went hard at work to unlock their devices. Yes the methods were a bit advanced but don't look to HTC to unlock something that most of us have the basic knowledge to do. Why wait?.

For those of you who owned a motorola backflip and found out how much a pain in the ass it was to root it knows that AT&T when out of their way to secure that device. THE Vivid reminds me of the same issue. Patience is key, to be quite honest I never had a hiccup on this phone and yes there could be a few tweaks but let's be honest, it runs good as it stands. So just wait it out, and don't bother looking on other forums for false publicity, and if root does happen it will happen here in XDA.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] gtkansan:
Unlimited data, and tethering. Need full root. Nuff said.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] akcooper9:
And well said
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
But it probably won't happen here at XDA. Do you see anyone working on it for us? EvilDevnull and our Gsleon are working on it together on Evil's forum. Evil has a Rezound, and Gsleon has a Vivid. The two are VERY similar so root on one may mean root on the other.

This is a prime reason why AT&T probably wants bootloaders locked. Samsung probably told AT&T hell no, because they can. But HTC decided to be AT&T's b****.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] gtkansan:
I don't tether for 10 gb or something. Just using what I pay for. It's very occasional. But I'm not going to be screwed into dropping unlim data AND pay 15 more a month just to officially tether.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Very well. I've heard of people that use tethering to play X-Box Live and stupid stuff like that. Now those are the people I shake my head at lol.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] gtkansan:
They're crazy. I just occasionally need the bigger screen of my tablet.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dagnus:
what does any of this have to do with developers working on getting root. lets try to stay on topic and leave this thread to the devs.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] blopez24:
Yeah I agree. I rooted my nitro but all I tether is my iPod and soon my tablet to be. If anything I never use over 4gb of data but feels good to be unlimited n not.paying for.tethering.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
No offense, but all hope at this point isn't even on XDA. Gsleon was most proactive at all things involving root, but he has left to work with EvilDevnull to get us root. He said he is leaving XDA for a while. So actually, any ideas any wise people have, they should voice it on Evil's forum. But it may fall on deaf ears here.

EDIT: and I've actually already seen some familiar people on XDA over on that forum. Glad to see people helping out when the Vivid subforum opened only a day ago.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pstevep:
The problem with waiting for s-off is the people who are really cool and do most of this type of work don't voice their progress openly. A lot of things that have been tried or are being tried at other forums have already been tried here. I have had a couple different reputable devs here who participated in the evo 3d version of this to verify. The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. The dev in question has already made it clear that he doesn't want to do this stuff for free (understandably), however he has asked for donations and has eluded that he would stop working on it if there were none.

Don't lose hope here.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ClippinWings:
But the Devs have left this thread... which is how this got off-topic.

I get your point, but let's be honest.

Any Dev working on it here... is wasting time that could be used working on it collaboratively with some of the best minds in the game.

---------- Post added at 08:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 AM ----------

That is simply not true.

Look, I know it's a touchy subject, but It has been stated repeatedly on the think tank that he's doing it to distribute the exploit to all forums, for freedom and for free...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pstevep:
It is a touchy subject. And yes he states that over and over (I'm a registered user too ;)).. However he says other things on twitter, and things that have been said in private. I'm not degrading anything he is doing i am stating what I know. So to say it's simply not true would be incorrect. I have done far more research into this than most, seeing that the all of the phones being worked on are either my mod forums or I own. I'm not ignorant on the issue and have a good relationship with the dev.

He is allowed to ask for donations and say what he wants, it's his right as a citizen.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ClippinWings:
fair enough...

How about:

"That is not-so-simply not the whole story"

?

LOL.

Point is, when a exploit is achieved it will be coming here... in the mean time, the best minds on the subject are congregating there, not here.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] :
well may be sooner than most think@solution...thats all ill say for now....

WC
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ClippinWings:
Thanks not Cryptic at all! WTF?

Seriously, this is a think tank... if you know something you should share it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] gtkansan:
What? uhm very confusing...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Roland:
Just got my brand new Samsung Galaxy Note today. The phone is rebooting and ahnging and rebooting all over again and again. I was not able to keep it running for more than a few minutes. Anyone any idea or ....warranty case?

Any answer would be apprichiated!

Note: no ROM work has been conducted!
[Epic 4G General] frostedunit:
I've been running EI22 since the first OTA day and I now have an interesting issue. I've tried stock, deodexed, and ACS 3.5 and had no issues. But I switched back to the latest deodexed stock rom and now my market won't update. I can't clear the cache or user data in the applications menu either.

Wouldn't be a big deal but it keeps giving me a network error when I try to go to my apps from the market screen.

Anyone know a fix short of reflashing?
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Try using Titanium Backup to clear Market data and also in Google Services Framework. Then with 3G on (icon in notification bar) connect to Market (making sure you signed into Gmail the first time). It should connect. If not make sure your ROM didn't delete the SprintAndroidExtensions and Sprint_updater apks.
[Epic 4G General] frostedunit:
Thanks kenny. Clearing the data in Titanium Backup worked. Still took a bit of dirty talk and a few ugly looks to get the market to update though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rdosti:
Perhaps the Quadrant Utility tool for Benchmarking needs an upgrade - the screen size is too large yet the speed test (FPS) is hidden under the screen's bottom partly.

The note must be pretty quick!

Anyways - I scored a benchmark of 4013! This was achieved after ensuring that task manager had all apps exited and memory cleared.

Update: On my third benchmark in a row I got 4308. You may check my blogs later today as I upload all the performance images.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Souai:
the note is pretty good. samsung did a good job of optimising the drivers, and the GPU is surprisingly more powerful than my atrix despite the higher resolution.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] foxmeister:
Quadrant doesn't need an upgrade - it needs throwing in the bin! :)

It's a deeply flawed benchmark that tells you pretty much nothing about the overall performance of your device.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] paulshields:
I got a score of 4600 using an Interactive governor on a kernel I rolled. This makes it awesomely faster than my paltry Nexus One :D. Shame Quadrant is pretty meaningless as a cross-device benchmark though...;).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rdosti:
Do you have a better app to suggest?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kunalparwani:
AnTuTu maybe?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chololazo:
Got an awesome 4395! I'm amazed by the phone's performance on Benchmarks, yet I find it just as fast as my HTC sensation on the usual day to day usage. hope updates will improve speed! :D

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hevyrockerdk:
Hello everyone, I just got my wife the new SGS2 Epic 4G Touch, and I pushed the new Beta of Swype to it, and it won't work at all. I was wondering if someone could possibly provide me with the APK file for the stock version of it so that I can install that back onto her phone to make things right again. Thanks (and appropriate button hit) to anybody who can toss that file my way.

Did you uninstall the app first using titaniumbackup or similar? That's what I have to do whenever flash new rom. Sometimes I need to even reboot after the uninstall, and before the install of new.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bazirker:
Nice! Great to have this!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] il buono:
If you install swype officially as outlined on the swype website you can get the updates OTA. Just make sure any previous version is removed beforehand.

Hi all, naybody knows if is possible to enable as HDMI our USB port? Maybe for a custom ROM...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hartej:
Don't think it's possible due to hardware limitations I'm afraid.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] 6E 65 76 69 6E:
buy a livedock
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hartej:
Doesn't have HDMI-out I'm afraid. Lets you connect USB devices to the phone, but the HDMI-out is from the phone itself - which the Ray doesn't have. Only way I can think would be to sell it on and buy an Arc or similar.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] terryowen:
I have a related question - has anyone ever used the DLNA options for streaming video from the phone? Does it do pictures too?

I just got my Xp Ray yesterday and haven't had time to back-up my current phone and move everything to it. I also need to root and partition a microsd card, too. But I'm looking forward to using it soon - it's a very elegant phone. (Got the gold.)

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xutienan9520:
do someone know where to buy the livedock in Perth？
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] LordSnow:
I've found it on ebay, shipped from England to Italy, I think it's available for aussie too ^^
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] LordSnow:
The only utility of the livedock is the possibility to keep in charge the phone while other usb devices are connected, cause it already handles the usb devices (I connect an usb dock with mouse and keyboard on it without problems, but I can't charge it at the same time^^)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] syin16:
does anyone know whether the xperia ray supports MHL?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xutienan9520:
Could you give me the website please, i can't found it, it always shows "live rock".

thanks!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alijones:
Hi Guys,

I've been looking in the forum but the info I find is form March and not really helpfull.

I flashed stock 2.3.5 XXJVT with Semaphore kernel.

I am having some programs crashing and I think the reason is a failed full wipe.

If I go to CWM and do wipe cache...etc, I boot my phone and although the apps are gone, all my internal junk is still there!

How can I completly wipe the SGS?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaRkMyk:
what internal junks are you referring to? Those apps that came with the ROM will not be removed by full wiping.

you could have a bad flash, try to flash again with the PIT and re partition.

I'm also on stock JVT and Semaphore, my SGS is working flawlessly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upichie:
If you're referring to files leftover on your sd card, simply format it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alijones:
Thanks guys, will try both options.

By the way, which PIT file should I use?
[Vibrant General] bambam913:
Ok I am looking for some advice / help on an issue I am having with my vibrant. A few days ago I started to get what appeared to be screen burn in. I could see details burnt into the screen from previous apps / emails / texts etc in the upper half of the screen. Over the next few days this burn in has turned into a giant brown blob / haze. It is getting bigger and bigger each day or two. I was running MIUI 2.3.7 for the vibrant and this is the 1st issue I have ever encountered with my phone.

I have read some about the AMOLED screen and burn in but I am confused as to why I would have burn in to begin with. I have always kept the screen timeout to 30s and never have the screen on for longer than 10min to 15min at a time while using it. I have turned the phone off for a whole day and still there. I have odin'd back to stock and still there. I have downloaded screen fix / burn in tester apps and still there. It appears my screen is calling it quits and I will need to get a new phone.

I got the vibrant when it 1st was released and my warranty is out. I don't have insurance on it either to boot so I'm out of 400 bucks is this is not fixable. The phone has never been dropped and I have always taken extremely good care of it. Just wondering if there is any hope in fixing this and if anyone has had the same issue. Anyone know what the deal is with this and if it is fixable or if a new phone is the solution?
[Vibrant General] Sugartibbs:
Go down about five threads, worst case scenario you might have to replace screen. if thats the case I believe there are several ops on this and probly a youtube vid. Run every screen test on the market first, Im in the same boat different problem.
[Vibrant General] gtoman7777777:
You can buy replacement screens off ebay...they're usually like $100 but its better than spending $400 on a new phone ya know. It shouldn't be toooo awful hard to install either. I'd try it if I were in your situation.

Hi,

Is there an xap out there for the DFT downloader that uses IE9?:p
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cotulla:
We plan to release our DFT XAP Installer and DFT XAP Init later :)

Note, that it can be used only inside cooked ROMs I think.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avensakias:
Does the above you said are implemented yet to be used on stock roms.??

Thanks a lot for your all projects.

Would it be a non interop unlock xap to do the above or not.?

I am, and is the truth. Try it for yourself.

Its clean and fast.

Good things are already here dude.

But yeah 3.5 apparantly by end of this week I heard.

I'd self claim that this is the cleanest fastest rom we have. But try it yourself

Been running for 2 days, superb battery & no fcs no errors whatsoever. And that's the truth moreso then what others are saying every other day they update there roms, like 'its perfect, flawless, bug free' when really they are far from it, annoyed at what was going on, I chose to do this to VU, cos it works so well.

I challenge anyone to make this rom crash. Booooyaaaaaa

pOw for nOw
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Litesorrows:
Sense 3.5 would be sweet.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] beezie916:
Just a couple things....

One putting a paid app in a rom and distributing it is a violation of rules here so you might want to replace root explorer with a free app like ES File Explorer (think you can edit the build prop with it)

Plus all you have done is delete a few apps and then post it as a ROM which would be wrong...I mean you just deleted a few sense parts...the Size of the ROM is not a big deal with an Android ROM...Linux and Windows run differently with RAM and space...but I really don't see why you post this as a new ROM you could of potentially just posted this in the VU thread and Chris could of put it in the OP if he felt was a need to post....I am not dogging the fact you can delete apps...although not to hard for anyone to do....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
I'm not hear bragging writes, I know it's pi$$ easy. I just thought I'd share my success. I self confessed in the OP what I did (which was nothing beyong removing unwanted items.) Regardless I removed the link few days ago as nobody was using this anyway, if anyone wants to use this then ping me.

Thanks for the info on root explorer.
