Lucky you! I was cheap and was tempted to buy a locked one since it was dirty cheap and thought I wouldn't have any troubles unlocking it. Maybe one day it will be software unlockable like the G2 but for now I'll have to keep using Turbo Sim.

Thanks for offering me to call you, I appreciate it :)
[Motorola Droid 3] trer253:
Another one with the same problem.

Verizon didnt want to unlock it.

And ebay codes doesnt work. Anyone could name what ebay sellers tested so we dont have to go through the same sellers?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rbs_uk:
To charge a phone on USB cable from PC takes me around 9hrs, from car charger around 4.5. Also, USB is not able to supply enough power whilst I`m browsing internet, its still discharging.

220v charger charges fine and quick.

Is it just mine handset or this is how it is?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] olivierlee:
Thats normal. PC USB ports can only provide 500 mA of current. The wall charger provides 1000 mA.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rbs_uk:
But why its still loosing juice when I browse internet, even its plugged into USB?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] olivierlee:
Because your phone is using more power than what the USB port can deliver?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rbs_uk:
That sucks totally :( My iPhone could do that. So its not a faulty handset then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CanaganD:
Your iPhone is the equivalent of a Corolla. Mass consumed, easy on gas and not very capable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theb1rdm4n:
Yeah this is the same for me. On my old phone i could charge it while using it, but it would charge slowly. I guess the Galaxy Nexus is just power hungry.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
your experience is normal and I thought it was strange at first as well coming from a 3gS iPhone. My phone barely charges from my work computer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nory82688:
That's weird. I can use my Gnex while charging with no problem. Just did it last night. It may charge a little slower, but still charges none the less.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Buddy Revell:
The current iPhone is not for me, but it's definitely capable. Honestly, there aren't too many Android phones that are better all around phones. Luckily, I own one of them.;)

Hi,

Having an A501, and having some troubles finding roms that really fits my needs, i'd like to cook one for myself.

But even after serching the web, i wasn't able to find a kitchen for the Acer Iconia.

Does anyone of you is aware of a good one?

Many thanks in advance
[Acer Iconia A500] jon-.-:
Taboonay has a kitchen.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Also, you can try www.freeyourandroid.com

Lots of info on doing roms.
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Yes, but that kitchen IIRC is for cooking programs, not the look, and feel of the ROM.

What the op is looking for is something like this for GB.

http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/

Which we don't currently have for HC that I'm aware of.

Wait until ICS comes out, then we'll all be on the same OS, and hopefully someone will come out with a kitchen for ICS ;)
[HTC Sensation] jonio298:
Hi, I'm running a custom Rom arhd 4.1.8 with sense 3.5 and everything works great EXCEPT facebook for HTC sense. It won't even show up in the accounts and sync list. I tried downloading the actual .apk file, installing it, moving it to /system/apps, fixing permissions and restarting to no avail. I have tried removing my HTC account from facebook hoping that would "restart" it somehow.

Has anyone heard of this issue before? It really is a minor.nuisance because the regular facebook account syncs fine butttttt it was annoying the hell out of me that my pictures and statuses aren't coming up when I look through people and when they call me.
[HTC Sensation] jonio298:
Oh, btw, it works fine on previous versions of arhd. I think it might be an issue with sense 3.5 but, I'm no expert.
[HTC Sensation] tlkh:
Don't fret it's there but hides itself behind the official Facebook app. Just sign in using the official Facebook app. The Sense version will pop up immediately and ask for permission to access your Facebook account.

Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
[HTC Sensation] jonio298:
Thanks for responding. I did know that already though haha. :p that's actually the problem. When I choose to sync my facebook account, it will pop up a facebook window after I hit "sync" and it looks as though its going to authorize faceboock for HTC but for some retarded reason, it exits out and an error notification appears in my notification bar saying "you need to authorize facebook for htc sense. And I'm like "wtf!!! It is authorized because I checked on facebook.com and its listed in my apps!!!

So the problem probably lies in the actual authorization phase of syncing. It's really getting on my nerves. I don't understand why it would work for sense 3.0 Roms but not 3.5. I just installed insertcoin hoping for different results but the same damn thing keeps happening.
[HTC Sensation] jonio298:
Anybody else have an answer???
[HTC Sensation] tlkh:
It just works fine for me.

[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
That's just online emulation... but I wonder... how come hd2 gets all the mobile os... what's so special about that phone??
[HTC Incredible S] itsbeertimenow:
Don't know anything about that phone but the source code is most likely fully released.
[HTC Incredible S] hussainmushahid:
hd2 is just one lucky phone.
[HTC Incredible S] timbo007up:
The hd2 is one of the first high-spec phones. So it created a huge user base.

And since most of the hardware was very well documented and what was not was reversed in a relative short amount of time.

Besides that, most people didn't like win mobile 6.5 because it has quite some flaws.

Basically thats why the HD2 is just well one of the only phone's that has all the OS systems.

Friend of mine also has HD2 with Cyanogenmod on it, compared to my old desire (with cyanogenmod) its extremely fast.

Because the Incredible S has a pretty small user base its not very likely that win7 is available for our phones, but when someone (or group) is willing to write something similar for the desire HD or any other Android Phone which has similar specs as the IS there is a possibility that someone is willing to port it to the IS. (think of a custom bootloader or wrapper script)

Until than, your out of luck and have to do with android ;), but i cannot imagine that that really is a problem.

p.s. olmost forgot: the bootloader of the HD2 was pretty "simple" compared to the bootloaders we currently have and was pretty easy to modify to run a different OS.
[HTC Incredible S] andalism:
http://www.xda-developers.com/windows-mobile/two-years-later-the-amazing-htc-hd2/

you should read this article about HD2.

the Wp7 drivers for HD2 were leaked, probably that was why it was possible.

not on the IS though ):

[Motorola Droid RAZR] gerazzo:
Hi,

recently I'm having some issues with my razr with the signal.

Very often I have no signal in places where in the past I had it!

Also with the Iphone4S (that is not the best for signal strength) I have 3/4 bars of signal.

I did the readio update a couple of weeks ago so I would like to try to apply the original radio.

Where I can find it?

Thanks.
[Xperia Play General] faisaldante:
Hey all, If you have the problem of market not downloading, and when your in recovery it cant mount cache/recovery/log etc. Then you have to flash your cache, in the latest flashtool you have to tick flash cache, this fixes this problem. Sometimes ven if you format your cache and data of market it doesnt help the market it still says unsufficient space.
[Xperia Play General] Roshi69:
Definetely had to hit the thanks button. This has been doing my head in for ages. i literally just flashed CM7 onto my phone again because with SETweaked i was getting this issue and fomatted the cache and force stopped market etc but no luck. Thanks alot for this, was a great help

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sixfearstheseven:
If you can find instructions explaining how to root your phone, you would then be able to use an app called SetCPU to overclock the processor and speed it up a bit. It won't make a huge difference, but it will make a difference.

In regards to getting ICS on your phone, unless you build the ROM yourself, you'll have to wait for another developer to port it over. It has similar specs to the Droid Incredible and there are 4 ICS ROMs available for it, so it wouldn't be impossible to port it from what I can tell. You'll also have to root your phone in order to install an ICS ROM. I doubt Acer will release an official update for it, but until Acer comes out and says that, you never know.

Can anybody help?

I've been fiddling with my framework-res.apk a lot recently and I keep getting mysterious bugs. Whenever I push the new version, my app's FC if I try to get into the settings menu. Also the Market FC's and the phone reboots if I long-press on the home button (or whatever it's called) to see what app's I'm running.

Re-pushing a previous, working framework doesn't fix the issue, even if I use the original stock one. The only thing that works is restoring a Nandroid backup or reflashing.

I've been able to narrow it down and this only happens whenever I edit an XML file in the Layout folder, although I have absolutely no idea why.

Anybody know what's going on?
[HTC Sensation] elgrego4:
Hi all, after 2 years of modding my HD2 with wm6.5, wp7 and tons of android builds, I'm upgrading to a sensation. I've read a lot of the threads but it seems less straight forward to hack this phone. I think i understand it, is s-off like flashing the bootloader so i can root it?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

I'm not sure which threads you have read,but THIS THREAD will take you through the four stages to get your phone ready to install any custom ROM.

:)
[HTC Sensation] elgrego4:
That's a lot of stuff to do just to hack my phone, i remember it being so much easier. I need a bit of help, I have just moved house and dont have broadband. I can get all the downloads whilst at work but no connection at home to the revolution site. Is there any other way of getting s-off without a live internet connection?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

It seems like a lot, but it is no more than you did for the hd2.

I cannot see a way round the live connection. Revolution has to check the code it gives you.

You might have to wait till you get your broadband.

:)
[HTC Sensation] elgrego4:
:( I feel so restricted with an unrooted orange branded phone.
[HTC Sensation] elgrego4:

[HTC Sensation] olderbloke:
Many thanks to all involved, I and many others went from a handset incapable of delivering texts (sent to outbox!!) to the best phone (boy's toy) ever.

I followed a similar road to the above post. However I ended up with Tween's cm7 with Doriamnx's kernal. Loved the tablet tweeks as buttons were already replaced twice, and the cm7 advanced setings.

Can or will anyone make an educated guess to when I could get the sensation(xe) to this level of usability with cm7 or Senseless build.

Ta

:D
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

I take it you have not got a Sensation yet.

CM7 is still experimental and not fully developed .

ARHD,which I'm on,does have a senseless version,which people rate.

So there is hope for you yet.

:)
[HTC Sensation] olderbloke:
Had a sensation xe for a week now. So far S-off,cwm & rooted. With Orange Uk. all stock at the mo. Radio, kernal & rom. would like good camera over xmas. (something hd2 never quite cracked imo on Android).
[HTC Sensation] Ouzo:
um, you shoud've bought the SGSII if you wanted to take better photos than the HD2 ; ) Only kidding, well, sort of. So far for me the biggest disappointment of the Sensation is the camera, especially indoors. It takes great macro shots in low light (even pitch black), but every other indoor shot I've taken has soooo much noise in it, even in well lit rooms. I'm not that impressed with photos taken outside either - doesn't feel like that much of a step up from the Leo to me, especially given the two year difference between them. Build quality, or perhaps quality of design is behind the Leo too. I've had to put four small pieces of Blu-tack inside to stop the creaking, LOL.

I'm still really enjoying it though.

Can either of you fellow Sensation Noobs see Nova 2 or Shadowgun in the Android Market? I can't. Via the web I just get an error saying my device is incompatible even though I know they'll run.
[HTC Sensation] elgrego4:

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twopossums:
My nook has been giving me some problems lately. The Market refuses to recognize my user name and password. And this week it has started to lock up and crash a lot.

I'm thinking I just want to reinstall CM7 (or is there something better now?)

My question is do I need to wipe the nook first and then re-root it? If I do wipe it do I need to install the stock nook OS before re-rooting or can I just install CM7 overtop of everything and do it that way? I've done that in the past and that may be part of my problem. I'm not concerned with backing up my data or apps. I can just reinstall them. I don't have a lot on it other than comics.

Thank you.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpate86:
Boot into recovery, mounts and storage, format cache, format data, format system, then flash your CM7 package, gapps, and whatever else you want as you normally would. I wouldn't think going back to the stock ROM, then back to CM7 would accomplish anything more than just re-installing CM7 would. Also, if you were doing any kind of overclocking don't do it after the clean install until you are satisfied that the performance has stabilized. If do a clean install of CM7 with no overclocking and you continue experience lock ups, you may be looking at a hardware problem.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] twystn:
So, I flashed octane 3.0 today and everything was going well until I tried to get into recovery mode to fix permissions. When

I press the power button and try to enter it through there, the phone just resets without turning off. So I tried to get into CWM by vol up +vol dwn, nothing happened same thing with download mode, so now I can't even Odin back to another ROM to start over. I notice in the power menu that only the silent mode, flight mode, and power off options work. I did also change the bootanimation file too. Does anyone know what could be going on? Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Try using the android debug bridge:

Recovery:

adb reboot recovery

Download Mode:

adb reboot download

EDIT: Sorry, forgot to mention that you have to enable developer mode.

On your phone (with usb unplugged) go to Settings -> Applications -> Development

Check "USB debugging".

Also, what did you flash from? Another Gingerbread rom? Or a Froyo rom?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tablador:
Not sure how much experience you have, but when I first started putting things into these modes, I was holding the power button down too long, causing the phone to reset again. I've found waiting about 1-2 seconds after you get the boot screen to let go of the power button is enough to ensure you get into CWM. For download mode, I have trouble getting it to work reliably unless I do the battery pull/USB cable method.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] twystn:
I'm coming from octane 2.X. I'll try ADB when I get home. Can't use it at work.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] twystn:
Yeah......I flash a lot. This is the first time I've ever had a problem. I was trying to retrace what I did when I was changing the bootanimation file. I must have screwed something up. I did change the permission of the /system/bin/bootanination but I changed it back after I realized I needed to change /system/media/bootanimation.zip

Update:

downloaded quick boot from the market and now I can get into CWM (weird). Going to reflash everything and try again.
