[HTC Amaze 4G] marleyfan61:
Just tried it and it failed as usual. Blank error msg. I see that the Wind and Mobilicity Amaze are both now listed but the Telus is not. This leads me to believe that is it Telus who is holding things up for us. Hope it comes soon.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Turbosled:
It is up and running now. I just finished unlocking my Telus Amaze.
[HTC Amaze 4G] marleyfan61:
Hey, thanks for posting this. Although they still haven't listed the Telus Amaze on their supported devices list it actually worked for me too this time. Finally I am unlocked and can root and flash.

Im on Telus as well worked for me im unlocked and rooted :)

Last post in this thread was 3 weeks ago. Thanks for dropping in with this enlightening and insightful post. Was there a point you wanted to make?
[HTC Amaze 4G] justin0025:
I'd also like to root my Telus Amaze. Has anyone figured out a work around of some sort? Reading the above posts, it seems like some of you managed to get it working via the HTCdev site. What steps did you guys take exactly in order to get it working?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Amaze 4G] guannaco:
Go to the HTCdev site above, sign up for a free account if you don't have one, log in with it and go to "Unlock bootloader" follow the instructions on the screen and they will walk you through the rest.
[HTC Amaze 4G] justin0025:
Thanks! I managed to get mine rooted last night and damn was it easy. Now running BeastMod.
[HTC Amaze 4G] guannaco:
I used BeastMod for a while, actually liked it better than the Bulletproof ROM and Telus stock. I got great batter life. I have gone back to rooted Telus stock though, I could not get SMS to play nice with Bluetooth, and my texts / email kept getting streamed through the speaker versus the bluetooth earpiece. I will have to wait until a better ROM / Kernel combo is available, or be willing for everyone around me to hear my messages .. :(

I hope it works for you.
[HTC Amaze 4G] justin0025:
I haven't had any issues yet, but I can see how that could be an issue if you use Bluetooth. I do use headphones when I'm listening to music at times though. Ill have to give it a shot. That's for the heads up! :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] guannaco:
What Kernel are you using? The last one that worked well for me was Faux's #3
[HTC Amaze 4G] justin0025:
Im using the one that came with the latest version of beastmod. Not sure what its called lol. Is that the one you had an issue with?
[HTC Amaze 4G] guannaco:
I think X started using Faux Kernel around the time the last beastmod got released. Faux released revised versions with the last one being 13 I think. My amaze was running OK with #3 after that something got broken. I looked through the threads to see if someone had the same issue, but it looked like the improvements worked for others. I assume it may be a Telus issue, but I can't tell yet.
[HTC Amaze 4G] justin0025:
Hmm, if I do run into any issues, ill be sure post it in this thread. Could be useful to some other users. Gotta keep us Telus users upaded! :P
[HTC Amaze 4G] Coloured_Hat:
Anyone else having troubles with the rooted stock roms for TELUS?

If you're getting a status 7 error. Mount() expecting 4 instead of 3...something like that, the update-script just needs to be modified.

1. Unpack the zip using your favourite zip file extractor

2. Under META-INF/com/google/android

3. Delete updater-script

4. Rename updater-script~ to updater-script

5. Rezip and move over to sd-card to install

OR

If you're feeling brave, just erase these two lines from updater-script:

mount("MTD", "userdata", "/data");

and

mount("MTD", "system", "/system");

I manually updated my dad's phone to ics with the ota file. He has the tmobile version and it's not rooted or anything. So i booted into recovery and installed the ota file. It installed just fine but now he has no service at all. We placed the sim card in another phone and it works just fine so its the phone itself. When we go into the network operators menu it gives us this "error while searching for network"

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suksit:
Try the stock OTA. It usually comes with an associated radio.img for your phone model.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acedeejay:
actually i had same problem yesterday.followed the stock rom advice and it worked properly.

as long as i have rom manager.4.8.3 i did a rom backup before installing ics update.

i lost the service in ics and then tried to restore the rom 2.3.6, same "error while searching for network".

all i did now is flashing again cwm 5.0.2. i downloaded nexus s stock rom 2.3.3 from rom manager too.

i flashed the rom and everything went back to normal.

thanks for the advice.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qwerp_:
i think its more to do with the usb-otg cable we got.

i have a original xoom usb-otg (camera connection kit) which does not work with my GNexus as well.

after some search on the forums, which makes sense, its more of a cable issue.

as the Gnexus has different modes to change into, with extra MHL, usb-host, charging, dock, etc etc,

"the connection between pin 4 and 5 determine, what kind of connection it is: charging, sync, usb otg, mhl, trigger download mode... and indeed, that is done by putting in different resistor strengths."

i just ordered another plain usb-otg from ebay, and finger crossed, this might work.

Dear Devs i have a question for you - is there any way to port windows phone mango 7.5 ??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hollow.Droid:
The short answer is no. The easiest way for ports to be made is to use similar/identical hardware that is running the desired platform. Therefore seeing as there isn't any similar hardware running WP7.5 then it would be insanely hard.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silberpfeil3110:
1. WP7 is a closed-source operating system, its hard to modify it like implementing other drivers.

2. The exynos processor is a very unique component, no wp7 phone uses such a processor, its a hard workt to rewrite nearly the whole os.

and these are only 2 arguments, why we will never get wp7 on our sgs2.

thanx for quick reply , i didn't know that windows is closed-source and it's so hardware demanded.

The one and only not-WP7-phones to run a Windows Phone are HD2 and Toshiba TG-01. Those are WM phones and I don't think that it's possible for any Android device to run WP7.

[HTC Sensation] kicosh:
hello,

when i change ROM or in any other way i delete contacts from phone, and after that i restore them (i am using My Phone Explorer) it simply doesn't create contact pics i had before wiping. this is main reason why i hesitate to try out new ROMs cos each time i have to manually attach pics for my contacts. So is there a way to do this (it doesn't have to be My Phone Explorer, it can be some other program or market app)?

also another thing that bugs me is that after i sync contacts from FB with phone it gives greater priority to FB contact pics than to those of phone itself, so contacts display FB pics instead of those from phone. I know i can fix this manually but again why should i each time i flash new ROM, if there is a way to do it automaticly. So, is there a way?

thank you

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zxrax:
Last night before I went to sleep the battery was around 94% after an hour of solid use from a full charge.

I woke up today about 9 hours later and the battery was at 55%. It's been about two hours since then and I'm all the way down to 30% with only about 20-30 minutes of solid use.

What's up with that? Any ideas as to what I can do to fix it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dac1227:
-Battery calibration, basically drain to 0%, then back to 100% on single charge.

-Try custom rom

-Might be radio, try flashing different found in development thread

-app or widget installed recently?

-look in battery use under settings menu to find what is eating up battery consumption, in your case likely something via cpu consumption (ie not display use)

What is your current set-up?

Check out battery drain threads in general section.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zxrax:
I'm working on battery calibration right now, this is my first day with the phone (I got it about 24hrs ago, actually). I'm gonna let it die then charge it to full.

I'm on a custom ROM right now, QuickWiz v1.0.3. It's blazing fast, no cool features though. I miss my CM7 that I had on my Inspire but the CM7 alpha was a bit too buggy for me.

I'll check into flashing some other radios in a few and I suppose it could be the weather widget I installed. I'll check that and see if it's syncing too often or something.

That's the funniest part. I just looked and I have 1h51m of screen on time (Mostly around 35% brightness, give or take a bit) and it's taking the majority of my battery at 31%. Right under it is Dolphin Browser HD at 13%. I might just swap to another browser, any recommendations? Last under that is the Android OS at 12%, then everything else is under 10% - Cell Standby, Speed Test, Market, then down to 5% which shouldn't matter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dac1227:
are you using a cpu governor such as system tuner or setCpu? if you are OC'd, id suggest also cpuSpy to determine how long your device is in each state(clock speed)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zxrax:
I am OC'd. i have a setcpu profile for screen off that cuts it down to ~54/400MHz when the screen is off, set to conservative as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dac1227:
Hmm, if I had to guess, check the radio. I've had the problem before. As far as browsers go, I like Dolphin HD, just make sure you completely exit out of it when not using, otherwise it can be a resource hog on idle. Since you haven't had the phone long, reflash your rom of choice too if you get such a drive, that has fixed battery issues for me also.

I love my battery life using TPC's ROM with DaG's kernal. I'm also using TPC's CPU zip to govern and set CPU speeds 192-1782MZ without the use of third party programs. Some see zero battery loss when idle over night. I lose maybe 5%.

I installed a new radio with 8% battery left before I went to a birthday dinner. That 8% lasted me through light to moderate use at the dinner for about an hour and a half before, and I got back with 3% remaining.

I also froze a bunch of bloatware which could have also been taxing my battery. I'll wait another few days of use before I flash any other ROM's/Radios to make sure I'm not happy with the battery life and past that, I guess I'll just have to return it for a new battery or an LG Nitro HD instead, if the dev scene starts to pop up for that phone.

Couldn't hang up. Had to reboot the device to get the phone back.

I see that there might be something in the works for fixing this on december 13th.. According to the cyanogen thread it impacts all CDMA Samsung CM7 based devices..

Hoping that the 1.12.16 miui will deal with this.. but people should be made aware..

Do you not get in trouble for calling with no emergency?
[Fascinate General] chopper the dog:
not with some convincing acting.....

[lady] 911 what's the nature of you emergency?

[me] oh, maam there is not one. My manufacturer and carrier of my cell phone finally pushed a fix to my device that actually allows me to call 911.

[lady] well I'm gald it worked for you.

[me] me too. since i don't have a land line at home the ability to dial 911 is kinda needed.

[lady] I completely understand your concern about the issue.

[me] yeah, It's good to know it's been resolved.

[lady] is there anything else I can do for you?

[me] you already did it by answering my call. thank you.

[lady] you have a wonderful evening sir.

[me] you do the same.

click.

With the nature of call routing of cell phones you can't just dial 911. The call won't go anywhere. Hence your calls may route through some routing center 300 miles or more from your actual location. So you can't just dial 911 and expect your call to be properly routed. So the rom/ril has to have control over enabling location services. The call won't go anywhere and will not know where to go. When I did my 911 test on pool party it probably took 15~20 seconds for the call to actually connect in my house. And the delay for the connection is the turning on of gps and gathering information from cell triangulation for details on what call center to place the actual 911 call in my area.

good day.
