I understand that he is being an extremely low IQ male rooster with social development issues, but dude. Seriously. I know desire is part of the fun, but there are ALWAYS pricks around. There are LITERALLY hundreds if not thousands or people looking and watching and cheering you on every day. Don't let the squeaky wheel get the grease this time.

Also from my slightly conspiracy theory side, how can we be sure that this goober isn't a plant by B&N to try to pies off devs to stop development.....

Whether you continue or not, you are doing something I cannot, and I am extremely grateful for the work you have outing so far. Thanks man.

Posted from my B&N Nook Tablet... rooted of course!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] O_G:
Thank you lavero.burgos you are spot on. If you do have a issue, there are more polite ways to put your thoughts across. On the flip side some of the language in the responses were NOT acceptable, whoever you are! There are many idiots in this world, you need to rise above them. I will be contacting individuals about the matter.

I cant see this thread recovering now.

Has anyone had any luck getting Barnacle working with Ubuntu? If not, are there any alternatives out there? My phone is a Sony Ericsson X10 mini pro with MiniCM7 custom ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] poketjjax:
when installing a new ROM i see instructions from time to time to do a full wipe. i am aware this is a factory reset, but i have another question.

will this delete all of the apps i have backed up in titanium backup? also, will it delete the other ROMs i have backed up in ROM manager?

hopefully these won't be deleted because i really want to try the new MIUI!

thanks :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
C'mon man, you gotta search a little..these are all things that are covered in many threads.

Full wipe (i.e. data, cache and dalvik cache) will wipe everything except your back-ups. The only time you would lose your back-ups is if you decide to delete them off your sdcard. Everything else as you know it will be deleted with a full wipe (i.e apps, contacts if they aren't synced to google or your sim card, pretty much anything saved to your phone and not your sdcard).

Be aware though that any AOSP ROM doesn't like to read to the sim card.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
Well personal opinion is stay away from miui.

As far as TIBU (titanium backup)...no, when you do a full wipe it does not wipe your sdcard. Which is where all of your tibu backups are stored. Also, any roms that you back up in recovery using Rom manager are stored on your sdcard.

I got your 10 char right here

the one posted in the inspire forum last night has gotten nothing but good responses from people so far. it looks like a smooth, fast rom. i am currently using CM7 which i like, but i have occasional problems with my wifi turning itself off. have u had a bad experience with MIUI? what rom do you prefer?
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
It's not so much having issues...its the fact that they do not share sources. And I don't trust Chinese things I can't read lmao.

[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
Well, what the guys said is correct. Do a Titanium Backup and if you are not sure copy the SD folder in your PC....I usually do that with my TIBU and Rom Manager Backups, although I have never had problems with full wipe.

Respect to MIUI, the main disadvantage is that the guys hide behind chinese servers that do not have copyright laws as in US and their source is close different to what happens with other roms. If you flash MIUI you will find out that and email is automatically sent from your address to them without your permission and knowledge....that's why I also stay away from them. Anyway, you have to test and try as many roms as you can by yourself...then decide what is the best to you. See ya...:cool:
[HTC Inspire 4G] poketjjax:
Thanks for the help fellas. looks like i'll stick with CM7 til CM9 comes out. or a stable ICS build somewhere

As the title says I need help with my Sensation XE, i got it today to find out there is a custom ROM on there, i would like to remove it and go back to stock everything like its just out the box. Please could anyone point me in the direction of a walk through of this or tell me how to do it as i cant find any thing...

Thanks in advance !

Also some help with uninstalling clockworkmod COMPLETELY would be amazing !!
[HTC Sensation] j_tan168:
Restoring to Original stock rom, a risky procedure...

We are in the same boat my friend, I bought my Sensation XE with a custom rom in it as well, before I bought it, the previous owner of my phone told me about it, so I knew, but what he didn't tell me is that restoring it to its original stock rom and S-on is a very tedious and risky procedure, a risk of bricking your phone, check this link below if you really need to restore it to its original stock rom...

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bryank29:
I really just want to use my phone as a WIFI device and have it as fast as I can. Seems like most roms I load still make it quite slow.

Also one where the camera works without bugs would be nice.

Anyways, I think there is a script that lets you disable the radio and mobile, but what ROM would be best if I just want something clean, stable, and quick. nothing fancy.

Vanilla I've heard about, but not sure of the correct one to go with.

Thanks
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
As fast as it can run, with a stable camera? Honestly, I think that you are best off with one of the xtr close-to-stock ROMs (xtrSENSE, xtrROM if you don't want the Sense launcher.) I'm not sure if the WiFi only script works on these - I've never tried them - so you'll have to try yourself.

(One of the best parts about being rooted is that it's easy to try things out and then just Nandroid restore back to something that worked if you try something that messes up.)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a.mcdear:
I use GSB and really wouldn't consider any other ROM on the Eris as an option. GSB is definitely the best out there, and with the "Wifi only" script the battery life is pretty amazing too.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrSpartan:
Currently using GSB v4.4, running efficiently. So it may be an option to choose, however, there are other rom's that run great too. For example, Gin-Tazz-aosp; I found to run great, another one to consider. Subsequently, just try rom's that lurk and see which one runs remuneratively(in your perspective):D
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Designman:
I have just rooted my Eris, and I'm debating which way to go regarding a new ROM. I want to keep all of the major device functions, and I'm really just wanting to speed up the operation of the phone. Adding some visual excitement wouldn't be bad either. Does GSB 4.4 provide this?

BTW, the phone is currently running 2.1 OTA.

Thanks!
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrSpartan:
Well, you can consider xtrSense; since it derives from most of all the Sense. Also, GSB is a CM7 nightly and is particularly focused on CM7 only. Furthermore, it does not contain any Sense functions. Now don't get me wrong GSB Is phenomenal. Though, if your considering something mostly with Sense, xtrSense is advised; also it being overclocked, Collin_Ph script(saves battery), etcetera. Hope this helped :D
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MBL85:
Designman,

Definitely go with GSB 4.4. I've used this series of Roms since oct '10 and it's been great. I just upgraded to the Razr but I still use my Eris to play around on. I actually just flashed 4.4 from 4.3. the other night and it's really good. You'll like it and obviously it's got full functionality, the only major bug that I know might still exist is with Maps 5.5. or later isn't compatible. But there's an easy fix for that.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] loni90:
XOOM got ICS port right now, with everything working well (except face unlock, but hey...)

does that mean anything for us Flyer/View-owners? is it possible to port it to our tablet?

would love ics on the flyer

EDIT: Link: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/highly-functioning-cm9-kang-released-for-the-xoom/
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
what does it mean to us? That the xoom got an ics port, nothing more or less.

Different hardware types and kernels mean xoom with ics is meaningless to us.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] RaptorMD:
My guess is he was asking if there was a way to port it and mod it to work. What we really need to hope for of CM9.x to arrive that will support the Flyer/Evo View.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] loni90:
hahha somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed, or are you always this negative? haha relax

im not stupid, i know that its a diffrent tablet, but this kinds of ports are being done almost daily.

as this fella mentioned, i was thinking of a mod, to get it to work.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
He's not being grouchy, just straight forward. You cannot port a ROM complied for a completely different family of hardware and get it to function in any conceivable fashion. You'd be better off with a SDK build of ICS which would possibly boot if you hacked in a boot image, but none of the HTC specific hardware like camera, BT or video would function. There are already efforts underway to build ICS ROMs. Since ICS is built on top of HC, we have most of the pieces to build a vanilla ROM (no HTC Sense). Once HTC comes out with a working HTC device ICS ROM on hardware that is similar to the Flyer (yes some of their phones use similar hardware) that will be the port we want for ICS /Sense Roms.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] psijac:
I would love to have ICS on this device. Considering how much dev interest the blowout sales have generated I think its possible. But I am not going to how my breathe. I have a galaxy nexus but my evo view is still my primary device due to its pen and large screen. My wishlist for the next iteration of this device is: lighter, ICS, sprint 4g LTE in that exact order
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] RaptorMD:
Hopefully the fire sales have pushed HTC to keep going.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cnewsgrp:
Reading about ICS on Prime on engadget has made me interested in ICS as well.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] loni90:
yeah i know, but since ive seen others with ics, that made me a bit inpaitient ;)

htc sensation got the ics leaked, and maybe someone can start by playing with that one.

and i dont really care if its manilla or sense, both will do good ;) dont think flyer/view will be getting any ICS official soon, since HC just was released.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
if i seemed grouchy, it may be because I am a comp sci major with aspirations of being a software engineer. I view the question as either yes or no and then explain the logic why not. No intentions of rudeness, but I tend to assume I'm talking to ppl with similar backgrounds... At least on the net anyway.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] loni90:
Wooow...okey then...my bad! I should know better..
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
We are keeping an eye on the HTC Sensation leak. Right now there are 2 or 3 pages of things that don't work and of course its a different radio and HBOOT. So its a ways out from being useful as a port other than a novelty. By that I mean you might get something to boot, but none of the hardware functions like camera and touch screen would work.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
May want to wait for something more stable to port..sounds more like a way to brick a flyer than a novelty.

How much difference is there between sensation and flyer? Also is the radio relevant for the WiFi flyer.

I keep forgetting the are 3g versions of the flyer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] loni90:
ok, sounds good though!

whats the chances of a HC/ICS mix then, do you know? i mean, using what might be working in ICS (the best of it) combined with the useabilities of the HC.

*modding is not my area, as you might understand by now*
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
1. ICS is built on top of HC so we already have most of the ICS GUI. Google is already moving some of the ICS features into individual apps like the updated Google Search.

2. Radio is always relevant because it controls GPS, Wifi , and BT in addition to 3g.

I just ordered a Bluetooth GPS receiver from Amazon because they are only $5! Original price is $150, so you save 97%.

NOT SOLVED.

What's the point of of a thin, sleek tablet when it's got to have a dongle sticking out it.

At most your post is an obvious workaround, but hardly anywhere near ideal, or even acceptable for a lot of people.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
If your tethering your tablet via BT to a GPS unit, why would you care if WiFi was off or on? If your even doing this, it is obvious your out traveling and thus, WiFi is of no use so... it is a mute point

You obviously don't know what a Bluetooth GPS receiver is. Though I do agree that this is a workaround.

Glad I don't really care about GPS on a tablet or even a laptop. Both my cars have navigation systems so I'm good on that :)

wifi-tethering with a smartphone? I'll just use the phone GPS. ;)

Honestly I can't even think of a situation where I really needed GPS on a larger screen...

(obviously this is just my personal situation)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pyro6128:
I'm not saying its ideal. Obviously having a dedicated working gps in the tab is better. I'm just saying if you have a smart phone, instead of buying a bluetooth gps and jumping through hoops and all, might as well just use tether gps and use your phone's.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] n8mack33:
Exactly what I was thinking with all these people complaining about the GPS. I could care less. I don't think I will ever even turn it on.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
d'ohh busted :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ludikhris:
Situation 1: You're home using your wifi and you need Blutooth GPS.

Solution: Dude, if you need to know where you are at home, there is a bigger issue.

Situation 2: You're driving down the road and you need Blutooth GPS.

Solution: Turn it on, there's no Wifi anyways

Situation 3: You're driving down the road, you need GPS, but someone is using the Prime in the passenger seat connected to a wifi hotspot from a phone right next to you.

Solution: First, it probably won't drop in that close proximity. Second, how often is this situation going to happen? For six sigma the population, this will happen less than once.

Situation 4: You're in a coffee shop on wifi and need GPS.

Solution: Disconnect Wifi, do your GPS location, reconnect Wifi.

Alternate Solution: Use the wifi location tracking.

So really, there is no issue here. Unless you have one I'm not thinking of.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Itaintrite:
Oh, I agree. If you have a smartphone, might as well use the phone for GPS. Tether-GPS isn't that fast.

I PERSONALLY will never use GPS with my tablet though. There's a reason why GPS devices don't have 10" screen ;P
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mcrcracer:
Just so we are clear, I am by no means in NEED of GPS on my tablet, as I have a droid bionic.

This workaround is for my wife to use while I am driving. We go on a lot of road trips, and she constantly complains about screen size of the droid.

I agree with people in the sense that GPS is not needed on the tablet, and it is not feasible to be driving around by yourself using the tablet for GPS.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mike infinity:
I think you will find that tethering a bt GPS might be a pain. Back in the day I managed it with my old dell axim but drivers will be an issue on android.

There can be use for GPS in a tablet with cached or offline maps though. I actually hold on to our htc-hd2 because of the great GPS with offline maps under wm6.x. we use it all the time...but I prefer the pocketabilty of that system for GPS navigation.

I have little use for GPS on a tablet...but I am a little annoyed as I was with my vibrant that GPS is not working as advertised on the prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fuzzer:
I agree the title is wrong, it is a work around. But WTF? why the flaming. You dont need wifi or data or tethering to use navigation...ever heard of "offline" jeez..

I posted that I have used the said gps receiver and it worked... see here

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21242780&postcount=1226

Nothing "sticking out" once the receiver locks on, i put it in my center console, and it stays locked..

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Pacothebandit:
For what it's worth, I called ASUS and told them what was happening. The guy informed me the only way to get GPS working is to send it in and get it fixed. What do you mean? I asked, I told him I read the press release about the unibody design and wanted to know what they would be able to do for me.

He continued and explained he assumes they will fix the design or IMO replace the unibody with some sort of RF window. Of course the tablet is under warranty, I only have to pay for shipping one way.

I figure it's worth the trouble to send it in and see what happens. Either way, he said they would fix it...so if they send me back the same device, not fixed, I would be really pissed. We shall see...ill post something when I get it back, should be about 2 weeks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Shelfty:
Lol... it is a workaround yes, however (as somebody else pointed out), the whole point in it being Bluetooth is that there wouldn't be a dongle sticking out. Be sure you fully comprehend somebody else's suggestion before immediately rubbishing it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] max1001:
It's not a bad solution if you are really need GPS and don't want to return the prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jetbruceli:
Damn all, you guys really use GPS that much on a tablet? I have the prime and love it. I haven't even tried GPS because I would never need it on my tablet. Who walks around town with a tablet looking at the screen trying to find something? I have a g2x smartphone which takes care of all my needs in the GPS field.

Besides Google maps needs data with GPS to work correctly.

I am just not that concerned about it at all!

Nvidia always!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clenz:
I think this would work fine. I always figured I would use my phone by tethered if I was going to navigate with the tab anyway. It allows for proper placement of the phone on the dash to get a signal, etc. This device looks small and portable (and cheap) enough to keep handy in the briefcase all the time.

This is more than a good enough work around to make the gps a non-issue for me.

i'll just say if you're in need of gps that bad for navigation maybe you should be buying that before you buy a tablet, or buy a smart phone before you buy a tablet, and regardless of what people say the gps works, none of my apps f/c,lag or can't find signal when it's required.....the gps gets the job done for everything short of navigation, why so mad bro?

and i must question if you really need a screen that big for nav and do you really need a truck that big either or are you just one of those guys?

big truck big screen small..........

i just think if you have the money to buy a tablet like this, you already have a smart phone and a bunch of other toys, so why not forgo that $80 tablet case or dock or whatever and buy a gps for nav.....or put your money somewhere better for you instead of just crying about it.

all of this crying and whining has got to be annoying then anyone telling you to just deal with it like an adult.....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mike infinity:
I am going to run a test with my old bt GPS receiver and see if I can tether with the prime as stated above.

I did notice that when tethered to my phone for a wifi hotspot the gmaps app picked my loaction to 20ft instantly on the prime. I was wondering if the phone is sending its GPS position to the tablet over the wifi.

If so it makes for a nice dongle free solution with mobile data boot if you have it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
It is indeed a workable solution, with bluetooth it is a wireless connection and it comes with both home and car charger. All one needs to do is pair it to the tab and run the app.
