[Motorola Droid RAZR] kutster:
Is it just me or should there be a different forum for just the GSM Razr Developments. So far it looks like there are roots for just one or the other but not a all in one solution for both versions. Correct me if wrong but if this is going end up the case that Roms, and rooting instructions won't work on all versions then since this is the DROID RAZR forum topic then thats what needs to be posted here.

So far some call it GSM Razr some call them by the 2 or 3 different Razr models, and some just say Razr. What models are being talked about in all the Dev topics really should have a uniform way of dealing with each version or else there is going to be problems.

Like I said if I am wrong then ignore this, but I look at the topics and it gets confusing at times what models are really being talked about or what models are supported by a certain root method. I reiterate, if it doesn't work for the Verizon DROID RAZR then should it actually be posted in this forum at all?

Admins have any take on this? This forum section does state it is for the DROID RAZR.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] onslaught86:
With such a new device, any development is good development. Other devices get by with topics flagged as [GSM] or [CDMA], I don't really see any point in creating a second forum until there's actually enough discussion to merit it. Both currently have locked bootloaders, and aside from Verizon bloatware, the same software setup (The GSM version's software even contains references to Verizon). There may be reason to open a GSM RAZR forum soon, but now - so soon after launch - isn't really it.

People just need to a) Flag threads they start better, and b) Read threads they didn't start properly.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] D.O.C:
It has been already taken into consideration. For starters a good forum management and thread title is required.

BTW, this is in the wrong froum, this is development forum :P

Moving this to General.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] cobra-1299:
It would be nice to have them separated like all of the other devices. This forum is going to grow and alot of noobs are going to flash wrong roms and fixes. Then developers are going to have a harder time trying to figure out why things are not working. Yes people are supose to read everything but they don't and then a simple thread turns into a hundred pages of trolling and pissed off developers. I am one who does read everything and trust me I came from the Thunderbolt and that forum sucks and it lost alot of good developers do to people that don't read everything. Even the general section, people are asking question and listing problem but not saying what device they have.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kutster:
Exactly! This is exactly what I was talking about. I don't want to flash the wrong ROM just because some one didn't label correctly.

Since it was about ROMS and how DEVS list their roms and root methods I felt that it was the correct forum.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] cheekrox:
I need a clarification on the bootloader part. As far as it was announced, the Int'l version of the RAZR is supposed to have an unlocked bootloader whereas the US-only version (AKA Droid Razr) will have a locked boot-loader.

Can anybody confirm this for a fact? Coz I'm in India and I want to buy this but if its got a locked boot-loader here as well, I'll have to re-think.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] circleofomega:
Now that there is a thread about this, I would like to ask if there is a difference in the total memory allotted to the device. I mean, the Internal and external

memory...I am from India, so will I get a mem card as opposed to a US version?

Thanx! (didn't want to make a thread for this one question...so am asking here.)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pswin09:
You wouldn't get external memory card in Asia version as far as I known.You need to buy it yourself(slot support up to 32GB). Yes, Internal memory is 16GB but you can only use 8GB. The rest 8GB is for application storage (3GB around), system and Webtop...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] circleofomega:
Thanx man...but any way I can use the whole of 16?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pswin09:
Impossible... system storage & applications storage are already in 16GB. For webtop partition, it is possible to access if someone hack it..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] FrAsErTaG:
the Xperia play has the 800a(gsm), 800i(gsm) and 800x(cdma)

they seem to survive fine without a separate section for each phone?

I think you just need to pay attention to the tags in the thread, something you can't do by posting this in the development forum....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kutster:
I understand this, but there are about 4 or 5 names they are calling the Razr. And they are not always clear what phone people are talking about.

Razr

Moto Razr

Droid Razr

Razr (CDMA)

Razr (GSM)

When some people use the top 3 of this list interchangeably then that is where problems come up. I'm sorry to be that guy, but when I end up rooting my phone I don't want to brick it due to someone using the wrong name for the phone they made the Root/ROM for. Since I am not the only one that has shown that this could in fact become a problem, then maybe it should be looked into a bit further in the next few weeks as ROMS and other root methods come available.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bstarr3:
AFAIK, the international version ships with an unlockABLE bootloader. The lock/unlock decision is left up to the carrier, and Verizon has elected to shut down the ability to unlock the bootloader on their devices.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kholk:
Regarding the two sections... I've already said that to our moderator, but it seems that for now we have to write GSM or CDMA.

I'm sure anyway that when GSM and CDMA RAZR community will grow the admins will give us separate android development sections ;)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Spartoi:
I've always heard about this problem with htc and getting dust underneath their screens but I never thought it would happen to me on my first HTC phone.

Has anyone found any video tutorials or guide on how to take apart the Vivid?

Sent from my HTC Vivid
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] deepsunn:
I had a similar experience...

Okay, here we go:

I noticed dust under my screen the day after I got it--definitely a defect. I finally had a chance to take it back to the corp. store where I got it last Saturday and spoke to a CSR. She obviously had no clue what to do, so she went and spoke to her manager, when she came back she explained that her manager told her that it was "just something that would happen over time" and that it was essentially "normal" to accumulate dust under the screen of a $500-$600 device...

I was surprised at a such an explanation and could see that she was nervous about then having to tell me that her manager was not willing to replace it because he didn't consider it a defect (since he considered it to be a "normal" thing) and that the best thing to do was to "just buy a case for it"... I didn't feel like arguing, so I ended up speaking to customer care, who was surprised by what the manager said, and called the store and basically told me that the manager explained the situation and I could exchange the phone for any other device, just not the same make and model... This was the point were I got pretty pissed off

I called HTC and spoke to a rep who said it definitely was not "normal" for this to happen... Well, I wanted to inform AT&T of this, so I tried customer care again and spoke to a very understanding lady that totally agreed with me about the issue--that, defect or not, I should be able to exchange the phone. She wasn't totally sure how to help so she connected me with tech support/warranty claims. The girl I spoke to in that department agreed with me to, saying that she had "never noticed an issue like this in any touchscreen device" that she ever owned. She was nice enough to call another corp. store in the area, because "obviously that manager you ran into today doesn't know what he's talking about", and worked out a replacement.

The moral of the story is, try and get that sucker replaced before busting it open and voiding the warranty. Tell them that you didn't shell out hundreds of dollars for dust under the screen... I really hope that helps!

TLDR: Noticed dust under screen day after purchase, took back to store, was denied replacement because manager considered dust under screen "normal occurrence over a period of time", called HTC and confirmed that this was NOT a "normal occurrence", called customer care back and ended up with a replacement via another corp. store. So try and get it replaced before busting it open and voiding the warranty..

Edit: I am aware that people have noticed dust under screens of other HTC devices over a period of time, but I still don't think that this should be considered "normal" as a way for a store manager to weasel his way out of replacing a week old phone..
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Spartoi:
After taking out the Vivid from my pocket, even more dust got under the screen.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] deepsunn:
That really sounds like a defect to me...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dizzyraider:
I feel your pain. I had the same issue with the Inspire 4G with dust getting underneath the screen. It's like getting dust under the screen protector except you can't get it out. What I ended up doing is returning it within the 30 day period and purchased another one. That's when I started using a case with my Inspire and dust no longer gets in. It's kind of funny considering I'm using a case with my Vivid and Inspire not for protection (I'm VERY careful and never drop my phone) but for the fact that it keeps the crevices around the screen covered so that dust won't get in.

I'm primarily a Samsung device owner since I started using Android and never had this problem. I thought HTC was build quality king?

Looks like they don't fuse their screens properly. If I get this problem when I get my Vivid, I'll return it instantly and get another one.

If it happens 3 times within the 30 days, I'll get the skyrocket. :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Spartoi:
Well I bought my phone off contract so I can't exactly return it. I'll just have to wait until someone makes a guide on how to disassemble the phone.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ZeroRilix:
+1. Even phones that are bought offcontract are still subject to the 30 day return window. That is what I was told from my corp. Store when I bought my Inspire offcontract at the end of Feb. It don't matter how you paid for it, if it has dust under the screen, you are within 30 days and you have the same right as someone who upgraded to the Vivid to get a replacement.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikeyinid:
I take no credit for this mod, just made it work for myself, thought I'd share it. rmk40 and viperboy are the ones that made it happen.

I used this OC daemon on my MT4G, it worked very well. Ive noticed that cpu tuning apps seem to not play well with our phones. So I changed the updater script to make this mod work for our phone. Im running it with Bullet 2.2 and Juggernaut 3.1 and its very smooth, it really works.

So what makes this mod cool? When you set a screen off profile in setcpu, it takes a few seconds for the changes to take effect when the screen goes off/on. With this daemon, its instant. Ive checked it with shell commands and it always changes min/max and the gov as it should. I will share the shell commands to get the available clock speeds and govs. for the kernel you are using, you have to manually set them.

The daemon is configured with 6 files in the folder /system/etc/virtuous_oc/.

There are 3 files for the wake state and 3 for the sleep state. For each state one file for the governor, one for the minimal frequency and one for the maximal frequency.

You can easily edit these files eg. with RootExplorer or any other app which can edit system files. So you can adjust the frequencies and the governor for each state just like with SetCPU.

In order to get the available frequencies for the current kernel, just open your favorite terminal app and type

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies

You could also use adb shell to show the frequencies on your computer.

To get the available govenors use a similar approach

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors

To make sure its working, you can use these commands the same as the ones above.

Current CPU frequency

Code:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq

Current CPU governor

Code:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Current min CPU Freq

Code:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

Current max CPU Freq

Code:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

The kernel and ROM you are using have to support init.d scripts. As I said, Ive tested with Juggernaut 3.1 and bullet 2.2, the files are set by default at:

screen on gov-lagfree

screen on max-1836

screen on min-384

screen off gov-conservative

screen off max-540

screen off min-384

These are the available speeds and govs. for bullet 2.2

192000 384000 432000 486000 540000 594000 648000 702000 756000 810000 864000

918000 972000 1026000 1080000 1134000 1188000 1242000 1296000 1350000 1404000

1458000 1512000 1566000 1620000 1674000 1728000 1782000 1836000

conservative ondemand userspace powersave lagfree performance

Installation: Make sure you uninstall any CPU apps before flashing, or this won't work.

Boot into recovery, wipe dalvik, flash zip, reboot.

YOU CAN USE THIS APP TO CONTROL THE DAEMON. IT ALLOWS 3 OC PROFILES AND 2 UV PROFILES. WORKS VERY WELL! THANKS TO Killbynature FOR SHARING THIS!

Sorry to bump such an old thread, but my question is regarding undervolting.

Since the app doesnt work for enabling a UV profile, can i manually edit the table in /system/etc/viper_vdd/default_values ? I noticed there is also a conf folder located at /system/etc/viper_vdd/conf... would the file get placed in this folder or should i overwrite default_values ?

Edit - the voltage seems to be coming from /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/vdd_table/vdd_levels.

thanks!

Sorry for bumping this old thread again, I installed the OC Daemon on Digital warfare current var, it did install and I'm able to control it through OCbeats, however everytime I reboot, it seems its not enabled by default even though I did a permanent activate :confused:

Is there any workaround for it, so its persistent across reboots ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
are you talking about undervolt settings? those dont work right with our phone and u have to make your own init.d script.

either way the rom your using has to support init.d. i know tdj has some of his own custom tweaks for darkside... try a rom like juggernaut and a kernel like synergy or streamline that has tons of supported governors.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] sw6lee:
Hello. This is my first time actually visiting the Optimus One forum although I have had my phone for maybe 2 months. I was not going to root my phone, in case I need warranty, so I was using the stock rom, although it was a little slow.

So I thought MAYBE there is an update on LG website, so I went on there, and found out that I can update by connecting to the computer. So I did download all the files they required (at least I think I did), and I followed the instruction, and started updating. Here comes the first problem encountered: While the phone was n Emergency mode, during the updating was in process, it said Phone and PC has problem communicating or something like that. And there was a restart button. It said disconnect the phone, and remove battery and connect again, and then press restart. So I did. Then now after that the LG software update tool doesn't recognize the phone. It said connect it and press OK or something. I think this is the point where I bricked my phone. A NON rooted phone. So I don't even have a custom recovery to flash anything! I hate LG right now. They are so stupid. I don't know what happened..

I tried the method here:

http://androidforums.com/optimus-one-support-troubleshooting/237642-bricked-lg-optimus-one-help.html

But I couldn't download the right KDZ firmware for my phone, that is available in the link in that link above. I'm in Canada and my phone is from Koodo and the model name is P500H.

So I got a random KDZ file that's for P500 from internet, but the in the KDZ_FW_UPD emulator, that's in the link above, it says my phone is NOT detected! I reconnect the phone and restarted the software so many times. I think they want me to connect the phone while it's Turned ON, and press the "Connect to USB" button. I'm not sure though.

***PLEASE*** Help me! I really need to unbrick this..

Sorry for the long post. And Thank you!
