here try this. htc flashlight
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
that one and "nexus torch" are the best 2.

sadly, "torch.apk" only works on AOSP roms.

as for Nexus Torch, there's a slightly different variation of it called "nexus torch froyo.apk" that I downloaded off of 4shared.

btw, yiu can also get the 4shared app from market and download .apk's that way to.
[HTC Rezound] jimbo.levy:
Sorry :(

Any idea how I could extract it properly so that it works?
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
The app sorta works. Installs OK, but won't turn off once it's on. You have to hit the back button to turn it off. Also won't change brightness. Good try though!
[HTC Rezound] Mooselips:
Thanks, it works, but can't adjust brightness. Still, I'm happy.

[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
Hardly!

I'm sitting here with fresh d/l's of 4 ROMS, newest MIUI, Blazing ROMs Fusion 4.0 & ICS AOSP and Prime XL 3D.....

Wondering if I should just flip a coin on which one to flash..... lol
[EVO 4G General] Notorious:
I would flip the coin lol
[EVO 4G General] Notorious:
Also prime has working voicemail and I know you like the voicemail :)
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
Well you're gona need 2 coins...do it tournament style...or flip 1 coin 4 times. :p
[EVO 4G General] devnulldroid:
We dont need no stinkin coin flippin.. Flash all 4 and add 1 more for a total of 5 on the fly. Have a 32gb sd with 3GB left over running all 5 as listed in my sig below :)
[EVO 4G General] blizzard1017:
I just said this. I feel like I just got this phone I am on it so much right now. I currently have nands of 3 different roms, all of which are great! I'm also in the process of putting a 4 Rom on to give a go. Sorry but for the Evo being the flagship "super" phone (my words lol) and being as old as it is I'm in no hurry to "upgrade".

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't mind a native 3.0-3.5 Sense or that nexus with 4.0 and a dual processor but Grandaddy Evo is still holding it's own with all of it. And honestly I am really excited to see 4.0 on here, Devs are making me pretty optimistic that Google trimmed the fat to work well across all phone types.
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
This is true, but I know how to make it work. :D

I REALLY think Blazing AOSP is the way to go. I loved Fusion, but I see people still not getting all their VM and calls, but that Prim ROM is looking totally solid, and MIUI is a bona fide' daily.

I'll end up flashing at least 3 of them over the next few days, I'm sure.
[EVO 4G General] taadow1030:
I have Miui, Classic, Newt's 3.5 and team Blaze's ICE Aosp and Deck's on Boot Manager. Much easier and quicker than nandroids.
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
How is that Ice AOSP?
[EVO 4G General] Nick N:
I don't think the Evo is going anywhere anytime soon. I would still use my HTC Touch if it had Wi-Fi (Foggy resistive screen ftl). They have CM7 for it and it was originally a Windows phone. Sucks that they are moving to LTE for 4G but still.
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
The plats thread? Fun to play with little laggy for ny taste but it was awesome to see it on my phone for a little bit :D
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
Actually, I meant Blazing ROMS, but I've been following Plats really close. I think they may have an RC soon enough that I'll be DYING to try
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
Yeah they are making really good progress imo
[EVO 4G General] F1u|}:
Haha agreed, I love all the activity in our forums and the wide variety of ROMs. :>

I couldn't care less that HTC has stopped "support" in the forums and whatnot. The only help I've ever needed/received came from good ol' XDA!
[Motorola Photon 4G] hirent:
I just purchased a Photon through Craigslist (on Black Friday) and activated it on my current line. The phone is a few weeks old and came with the original box and everything (the charger & cable had not even been used). I am traveling abroad for 6 weeks and will be moving around a lot and would like to buy some protection/insurance for the Photon.

I have searched through XDA for information about Sprint TEP and for the most part, it seems users think its beneficial to buy TEP since it covers repairs, replacements, lost and/or stolen phones.

Since I don't have a purchase receipt, can I still purchase TEP on my line for the Photon? The phone is practically brand-new but I have never had TEP before.

I want to cover all my bases before I talk to them directly.

The other coverage I am considering is Square Trade which has built a sterling reputation by providing great warranties with inexpensive prices. I have a 35% off coupon which I can use, so the Photon can be protected for 2 years for $80. But it doesn't cover theft or loss. Plus everything has to be mailed in.

So there are advantages & disadvantages for both;

Any Photon users care to chime in about their experiences?

Or any other comments, suggestions, do's & don'ts?

Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Photon 4G] fnztakedown:
Sprint has the tep at 7 bucks a month you should be able to add it since you just bought it. I know it covers theft and water damage but The deductible is 100-150 bucks I think. Better then having nothing and if u mod like everyone on xda, that should give u some cushion in case it goes haywire.(usually if u play dumb they may replace it for free) With sprints tep you can just go to a corporate sprint store w/ repair and can have it back same day usually unlike square which will take a week or two....

[Motorola Photon 4G] hirent:
Thanks, that helps.

I was leaning towards TEP for the same reasons.

I also overlooked the fact that a receipt needs to be filed with ST for confirmation, which I won't be able to do.

TEP on my account shows $8/month. Are you grandfathered in an older plan?
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
I've had a HORRIBLE experience with square trade and i know many others that did as well. Sprint TEP all the way..
[Motorola Photon 4G] hirent:
Was it with a mobile phone or something else?

I would like to read about it if you don't mind sharing.

I have my laptop & Nook Color warranties through them, haven't had to use them yet.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Its sort of a long story and i definitely don't feel like typing it all from my phone lol. Plus I'm watching the Texans game :)

In a nutshell it had something to do with my laptop and the refused to repair it over some BS. To be honest square trade warranties are stupid. Why should I pay someone few hundred dollars on top my purchase to promise me they'll fix/repair my device if something goes wrong etc. The OEM should repair most issues within the first year! Technology becomes obsolete like every 6-8 months anyways! It just doesn't make sense to me. Only time ill buy extended warranties is if i purchase a used car. Other than that I'm not giving a company my money up front because within a year I'd probably have another product! Yeah they can cover theft etc but imo its still not worth it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] hirent:
Thanks for the comments.

I'm definitely signing up with TEP.

Pity about Leinart, he was doing good....still your defense stood up today.

Good Luck in the playoffs.

Well, it will be 10 years for me on Dec. 28.

Had a simple, talk-only plan for 9 years; upgraded to the smartphone plan with the Evo in Jan.

And now, before I can be a Gold Premier customer, they take it all away.

I guess customer loyalty doesn't count for anything, anymore.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
Well, I just wanted to chime in. if you look back at my recent post, TEP (Asurion) just delivered my phone Saturday. I will not jock them but...........Yea I will, give them the $8.00 a month TRUST ME!!! And unlike AT&T, I did not get a referb unit, I got a brand new Photon stright from the factory floor, already programmed with Sprint Service, USB and Charger, Battery. All I had to do was hit the power button and sign into Google. I was making calls 3 minutes after I opened the box!!

I was stupid for losing my phone, TEP took care of me. ($100.00 and I got it before noon the following day!!! If I recall, package was from Tenn.? Oh Well, I got it in PA the next day!)
[Motorola Photon 4G] hirent:
Yeah, I already signed up....8 bucks a month.

I only want this for the duration of my trip (6-8 weeks); I might cancel afterward.

Total for a year is $96 plus $100 deductible, totals to $200. The Photon goes for about $250 on (my local) CL. Unless the instrument is problematic, I personally don't see the need for me to have TEP.

But yeah, brand-new replacement for a lost handset is great.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
The way I caught AT&T was I had to remove battery to put in my card, there was a little yellow round sticker with an "R" on it, thats now what I was paying for. It took a little moaning and hollering................Again, I have nothing but love for Sprint TEP.

I work in IT. years ago a friend told me "we dont get paid for what we do, we get paid for what we know. We are an insurance policy, no one cares as long as the lights are flashing green, we work when it flashes red!" This has stuck with me for years.

TEP and that $8.00 gives me a piece of mind. When I got my EVO August 2010 (or was it July?), anyway, it cost me over $600.00 to walk out of the store with what I wanted. Photon cost me over $700.00 (Phone, new card, GhostArmour)

BTW: If you lose your phone in Sweden, your SOL anyway. Most (or AT&T anyway) will not ship internationally. I had to send e-mail to my mother (she will not answer blocked calls) with password to have AT&T cut it off. Insurance would not ship to her, HTC Fuze got shipped to my home in PA, my mother is in Ohio. My daughter came from Md, for phone, delivered it to my job, Operations sent it with like 10 tapes!

Bottom line, $8.00 is nothing!
[HTC EVO 3D] epicchase:
So I was walking my girlfriend through rooting her new Evo3D, and we couldn't get the phone to get past the 'MI' logo, so I figured it was a kernel thing. After four kernels and two versions of MIUI I realized that it wasn't the issue, it was the hboot.

She didn't back up, she has only had it since last night. I now know what I need to do to flash the ROM, but how can I get her back to stock so I can get the app needed?

Any help?
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
She has HBOOT 1.5, right?

Go back to the folder where you did all the rooting. Get the stock MIUI kernel (boot.img from the flashable zip) and place it in that folder. Open up a cmd and navigate to that folder.

Boot her phone into fastboot mode. (Vol down + power while the phone is off. Hit power button to select fastboot once it goes into bootloader) Plug the phone into the computer via USB

Type 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' in the kernel. If it successfully flashes, you are done! MIUI should boot up now that it has the appropriate kernel. You will need to do this for any ROM you flash.
[HTC EVO 3D] flonker:
As long as you have a recovery, just flash whatever rom you want through fastboot and the kernel will stick.

Or just download a stock rooted rom and flash that the same way you just tried to flash MIUI. It will work since you still have the original kernel.
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
Well, ROM's cant be flashed through fastboot. The ROM is flashed through recovery. Then you go to fastboot and flash the kernel with my guide above. After that, everything should be working fine.
[HTC EVO 3D] epicchase:
Hopefully this works! Shes at church right now but I will have her do this ASAP and I'll report back!

(Awesome response time BTW)
[HTC EVO 3D] flonker:
Roms are flashed through fastboot just by loading your recovery into fastboot.

I never flash roms and kernels separately. Just go into fastboot, load your recovery, and flash as you normally would.
[HTC EVO 3D] dannyboyex:
I had something similar when flashing MIUI. if you boot the recovery.img from fastboot it should work. you may want to re download just in case of a bad download.
[HTC EVO 3D] redstrike120:
I'm having the same problem as epicchase. have attempted to flash miui many times. at first i tried to do it through my recovery. it didn't work. then i tried to use the fast boot method and flash it from the recovery that i opened from fast boot. i'm quite frustrated. it just wont boot miui, is it the kernel, i'm new to rooting in general but i think i know what i'm doing. i have spent who knows how many hours trying everything i can. i tried flashing the boot.img and the ROM separately. I have successively flashed android revolution hd, but that's no fun, its nearly the same as the stock ROM any suggestions would be appreciated. it boots but i guess it must be a boot loop but idk all i know is it freezes in the middle of the boot animation.

ps. i am rooted using the htc official method (unfortunately) and am s-on)
[HTC EVO 3D] Twolazyg:
Did you do a full wipe before you flashed? Find Virus's Superwipe tool (.zip), boot to recovery with fastboot, flash the superwipe.zip, then flash MIUI.
[HTC EVO 3D] redstrike120:
I will try that tonight thanks very much in advance
[HTC EVO 3D] redstrike120:
well it didn't work it did the same exact thing. I've been giving it about 10 mins to attempt to boot is that long enough? I'm new to non sense roms I've only ever used sense, is there something I'm forgetting to do that is different for non sense roms. *frustration* (and i thought i was beginning to understand this:()

---------- Post added at 09:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 PM ----------

okay well i tried to flash cyanogenmod 7 still no dice. I must be an idiot, sorry for being a noob.

this is what im doing.

im placing the .zip on root of my sd card. then opening my cmd.

i then type " cd c:\android" (i saved the recovery image in a folder named android) it says

"c:\android" just as it should i then type "fastboot boot recovery.img"

it restarts my phone in recovery

i press install .zip from sd card then click wipe cache and dalvik cache it goes and does its work

i then select the superwipe.zip it says flash compete however it says error or something but i just kind of ignored it.

i then select my miui.zip that i got from www.miui.us

i then select install .zip files the first thing that comes up is "md5 check fail- ignoring" and the continues and flashes (i have no clue what that part means but i continue anyway)

i select reboot and it starts to boot my phone i get the white screen with green htc.

i then get the miui boot animation for anywhere from 2-5 seconds and then it freezes.

i sit and nearly just stare at it and the clock. i wait at least 5 mins but have waited up to 30 mins.

the boot animation never restarts i just freezes there making me think it is not a boot loop (however the definition of an actual bootloop is slightly vague to me.)

anyway thanks for reading and if you have any suggestions i will be very happy for now im just gonna run my android revolution hd rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] Twolazyg:
If superwipe isn't working, fastboot to recovery, go to the wipe menu, not install a zip, wipe dalvik, cache, and factory reset. Don't do the factory reset in android, do it in recovery. I'm guessing you got a corrupt download of superwipe, I would redownload it and try it again if I were you.

Try using this one.
[HTC EVO 3D] redstrike120:
Yayyyy perfect thankyou sooooo much I'm speechless thank you so much!!! it flashed like it was mardi gras.

[HTC EVO 3D] redstrike120:
make sure your phone is actually rooted if it is hboot 1.5 make sure to use htvdev.com

make sure you have a recovery image

My pictures are you very poor. I have seen examples on engadget and phoneareana that are way better than anything I have been able to reproduce. Others on this site seem to be satisfied.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MysteriousDiary:
Upload them to minus.com or so.

Don't have my Nexus yet but in review videos it seemed like they changed the autofocus thing a bit. You've to hold the shutter button so autofocus starts and then release it once it's sharp - bit like the way you've to do it on other cameras.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MysteriousDiary:
Hm, there must be really something wrong. Shuttertime wasn't that long so I looks like it's really a bad focus. Can you see/hear the autofocus working?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Spewy1:
Yes,it appears to focus but the end result is unfocused. These are the worst examples buteven the better pics aren't great.

Think i am going to take it back for a replacement.

The quickest way to update... Instead of doing an sbf to get you to the same place... Just do an sbf to 602... And you'll be good to go.. Because the only real difference between 602 and 605 is just a keyboard fix for the stock keyboard
