[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcrat:
yep got it, so far it did get ask for superuser permissions, and gave it.

but when i try to chmod the system directory, it keeps telling me the directory is read only... i want to chmod the /system/apps folder, still get the same thing....

hmmm
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sspa:
I believe the directory (partition) is mounted read only (r/o), you'll have to mount it as r/w. It's much easier to do it in Root Explorer
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Savant:
You can probably even use the automatic unlocker that is a easy one to use and does all the work for you.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcrat:
The easy unlocker? got alink or program name?

I tried to change the permissions in root expolorer, and sam thing it told me its read only. and it had superuser permission... I dont get it.

EDIT: ok got the permissions changed, now back to unlocking the boot loader.. trying to find the right sbf file now...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcrat:

EDIT: ok did the fast boot in the CMD dir, and unlocked it,,,, weired, thought i bricked it... but after it unlocked.. i reboot it, now it works.. fine...brand new again , thank god i did a titanium backup yesterday.. but it all works fine again....

Thanks guys...

Say that android was never released (or discontinued after initial release as a failure)

What do you think would be

(*) Outcome of the mobile world?

(*) what phone you'd be using?

I think, if Android ceased to exist, ill still be on old Windows Mobile.

Microsoft wouldnt have felt to need to update to WP7 as they had no need to compete with anyone apart from apple.

So as a result WP7 ceases to exist

I think apple would not have introduced multitasking or the fancy new features in their iPhones. They have no one to compete with

I don't think dual core would be high end (1ghz would be high end even in 2012, and would be ground breaking news)

I don't think apple will have released an ipad. They wouldnt need to compete.

I think I would still be using a WM phone if android didn't exist, and have no tablet...

HTC would still be a unknown company that no one has heard of, and they produce phones for carriers

XDA site wont be as popular or well known as now.

The mobile world would still be a few steps behind

well, to what you said:

i would probably use a htc windows mobile( something i like, cause wm>> wp)

htc was known long ago before android existed. it was the main manufacturer to produce windows mobile phone ;)

also multitasking was introduced in wm 6.5(if im not mistaking)

Don't let behind the others OS! Like Symbian, Garnet (Palm), Blackberry OS, Brew. They were competing before Android existed, so don't expect that it was because Android that everything changed.

Sometime before I heard of someone who said that it was because Apple that TouchScreen Smarthphones exists today, but wait!... There was already Palm and Symbian with Touchyy phones, so... :P

PalmOS will still be dominating the market strong

Apple will have gone bankrupt, as Microsoft couldn't afford to buy out Apple's doomed stock, due Microsoft own low sales of Windows CE v10.1

PalmOS would have been v15.6 by now with new improved GUI and Eye pupil control to select & run Apps from the phone, with voice dictation a voice command perfected even for people with heavy accent

while still keeping the good old fashioned pen, for those that likes to hand write on the screen as before

PalmOS has become open source, and old Apps are still backward compatible with the latest PalmOS

making the life of Doctors and tons of other professional easier without having to wait for new Apps releases to work on the new OS

Without Android I think Apple would be very dominant in the cell phone market.

I don't think there would be many (or nearly as many) lawsuits being thrown around b/c Apple wouldn't feel threatened.

I don't think the iPhone would really be changed as much though. Apple has a very strong almost cult following that will shell out the money every year for a new device so I don't think they really need to succumb to the trends of the market. If anything I agree they wouldn't have multitasking and probably no dual core processor.

Sadly I'd probably own an iPhone

[General Topics] Tachi91:
Windows Phone would be around but be different in Name/Look... iOS wouldn't be as rushed to add MMS and so on.. SO it would look the same (surprise surprise) but with some missing features. Windows Mobile OS would probably continue the look of 6.5 with overall changes to compete with iOS...

Overall Android caused a lot of thinking for both Apple and Microsoft ... If only we can see into a world like that... Now im curious :confused:

Hi guys i am looking to buy a 32gb Class 10, MicroSD card for my Desire, i am planning to partition it so i can have more internal space. After searching the market for a competitive price, i have came down to 2 options:

Lexar 32GB Micro SDHC Class 10 Extreme Speed

Samsung MB-MSBGAEU 32GB Class 10 Micro SD Card

I would appreciate if users here can recommend me which one i should go for and why (if owned either and used) ?

Thanks alot
[Desire Accessories] stonegroover:
As far as I know, many of the higher class cards have been produced by biasing performance to continuous read/write speeds, for use in camcorders/cameras etc so they can record ultra HD or burst capture etc. HOWEVER, for use in a phone, which needs greater random read/write access they can suffer compared to a regular class 4 which is a better balanced card. There is a lot of this going on in the HTC Mozart pages here on XDA, where I've been spending time (had a Mozart, ROM'd it and gave it to my girlfriend, she loves it).

Many people have tried different 32gb/16gb cards, different classes from 2-10 and the results have been surprising. WP7 seems to be unusually fussy about the cards that will actually work with it, and the only card guaranteed to work everytime is SANDISK which says a lot about the quality, and people have been finding that performance with a Class 4 SanDisk card is better than performance with a supposed Class 10 card by another manufacturer such as Integral, Transcend etc or even Samsung and Kingston.

In the end I bought a 32gb SanDisk Class 4 off Amazon, for a lot more than they are on eBay at around £28, apparently there are loads of near-fakes on eBay (only way I could guarantee it was genuine- the chinese are using genuine 4gb SanDisk cards and then re-branding and re-coding them as 32gb, the card thinks it's a 32gb, reports that it's a 32gb card but obviously runs out of room and has errors as soon as you try to put stuff on it).

Hope this helps- generally you get what you pay for and if it sounds too good to be true it usually is.

6) Plug your U8800 into your computer but DO NOT mount SD Card.

It doesn't say the voltage so you can't tell. I think you need at least 11 volts to charge the transformer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] bsoplinger:
I'm pretty certain that Asus went with a higher than usual voltage to trigger the fast charge mode instead of a high current approach like the iPad. That means that the Transformer will only take 500ma when it sees 5V and will be in the slow charge mode. Look for the threads talking about making a charger for complete info.
