[HTC Amaze 4G] Fahnix:
I really love my Amaze. I have had numerous other devices and gotten great information from XDA over the years. It seems that even the devices that don't have devs hop on immediately still get awesome support.

As for support on the Amaze, Xboarder56 has been keeping everyone occupied with his wonderful ROMs. If you are looking for something that has the AOSP look and feel go for his BeastMod ROM. I just tried it out and it looked and felt great. Very smooth, responsive and quick. Minimal UI just like it should be. As far as stock looking ROMs that have custom kernel support he's got something for you there as well. Try Bulletproof if you want something stock looking, but with some customization options.

Honestly, you can't go wrong with either the Amaze or the Sensation. (I have the Amaze now, but my previous device was a Sensation) There's great support for both devices, but IMO the Amaze is just a tad bit sweeter than the Sensation . :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrmylanman:
Picked up an Amaze today, and I gotta say I'm liking the new Sense a lot more than how it was when I had my Evo. Shouldn't be a problem!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Fahnix:
Nice! I'm glad you're liking the new device. It only gets better! So what's the verdict? Sense or Senseless? Currently I'm running FastAmaze v1.1 with Faux123's latest kernel. Very smooth and very stock. Haven't had any issues at all. If you happen to hit a snag in your rooting or romming process just give me a shout and I'll be glad to help any way I can! :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrmylanman:
Thanks man I appreciate it! I'll probably root it today, and check out the ROMs available. I'm kind of impressed with Sense, actually, and it runs very quick as it is, so I'm kinda giddy at the thought of it getting even faster. The battery is better than I expected, since most of the reviewers were talking about ~4-5 hours of life, but they were probably beating on it pretty hard I'd imagine. So far it seems around on par with my NS4G.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mikeschevelle:
can we start blasting HTC with community hate mail to get the to S-Off the device??
[HTC Amaze 4G] Turboboxer:
I actually kind of like our smaller community.

My wife has the Sensation and it kept just effing up on her stock. Just dumb loading screens and such when say you exit an app.

When I went to look into rooting her phone and picking a custom ROM it was fairly difficult to pick one because there were so many. Some ROMS even had cutom "flavors" if you will. To each their own. I love my phone. I love the camera and have zero remorse from switching from iOS.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mikeschevelle:
I do agree with the small community, just want to see what potentials could be out there with S-OFF, really am wanting a MIUI port for this device
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
They won't give us S-OFF. Never ever! But they do need to release the full source for the kernel. Maybe with ICS... but I doubt it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mikeschevelle:
is S-OFF achievable thorugh Dev's or can that only be achieved from HTC?

Anyone know why they are being cremugid bastards on a full release of the kernal??
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
Scard about there sense code in the drivers being leaked, they customize the drivers to work in sense
[HTC Amaze 4G] mikeschevelle:
not being ignorant but I didnt understand what you said X
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
But hopefully someday we will achieve S-off on our own like other htc devices :D, i think more importantly though is the source for the kernel and drivers for the wifi.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
GO AMAZE!

Go for the amaze! I really love the camera on this phone it has allowed me to get so many moments! Very good at night as well! It has a 1.5Ghz Dual Core Snap Dragon Prossessor. In addition you are always connected with your friends on facebook with a download speed that I hit at Tamp of 31mbs! I really love this phone and I wouldn't trade it for the world! Hope this helps!

Best Regards,

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AdrianE46:
I have a stock 4.0.1 GN and the system sounds are extremely quiet. I can barely hear them if i put my ear to the speaker in a perfectly quiet room. I tried uninstalling volume+ and that didn't help. Music, ringtones, video are all normal. Tried unchecking touch sounds, rebooting and checking them again and still nothing.

It's not like i care that much about touch sounds but i'm afraid volume+ did some damage somehow.

Any help is appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gingernut78:
bootloader-maguro-primekl01

If anybody's interested here's the PRIMEKL01 bootloader, latest version.

It's the same LTE/CDMA leaked version that's floating around, nothing changed as both devices share the same bootloader, as far as I can tell.

It's recommended by Google for those who are on 4.0.3 roms with same XXKK06 radio. I've flashed it running Mike's ARHD 2.1.2 and even though it's not a 4.0.3 rom it's working perfectly.

Inside the zip I've included fastboot for Windows for easy flashing.

Put your phone into fastboot mode and execute the fastboot-windows.bat file.

If you have any problems with it just flash back to the previous version.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marc.tulley:
Any actual improvement? Just wondering why its worth flashing....boot loader isn't something I have knowingly flashed before so can't understand what it controls that would yield a noticeable benifit. Any help clarifying this would be appreciated! Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Wait so this bootloader is for LTE/CDMA devices then?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
As stated in the OP both versions use same boot loader and I just used it on my GSM gnex and all is good and working.

Thanks gingernut for making this nice and noob friendly, hope you can keep this thread updated with all latest boot loaders as and when they come out with a 1 click flash like yours :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cruxidex:
i have flashed this bootloader on my GSM Galaxy Nexus.. all working fine.. thx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
So is there any word on what bootloader is recommended for UGKL1 radios ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Should be all good as GSM and LTE use same boot loader, this being most recent and UGKL1 is a new(ish) radio.

I'm on XXKK06 radio (UK gsm) with Android revolution 2.1.3 with james bond 1.35 ghz kernal and all good here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lonnyrs:
Would someone mind giving a little more detailed instruction on how to do this? Sorry, but I'm just not that familiar with fastboot. Besides, I'm sure I'm asking something a lot of folks are afraid to ask.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thracks:
It's very easy.

1. Put the phone in fastboot mode: pull battery, then reinsert it and press vol up+vol down+power. The phone will boot with a green Android and some white text in the lower left. This is fastboot.

2. Plug in your phone to the PC, and install fastboot drivers if necessary.

3. Run the .bat file in the zip in the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rafi300:
What's the advantage in this bootloader

Compared to others ? Anyone notice any improvements?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
I can't say I have really noticed any differences really, the biotloader runs deep deep with in the the phone so at OS level you won't really notice anything.

The main reason for updating it is because its recommended by Google to use with these newer radios
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
I'm not going to say that you are making things up, but I would like to see this claim quoted before I take anyone's word for it. Sorry for being a sceptic, but bootloader and radio are two such orthogonally separated concepts that I just don't see the link.

If I am proven wrong (and that does happen :) ), I'll make up for being an asshole by adding a link to this thread in my radio collection thread :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Its all good and no offence taken buddy :cool: I'm just going by what iv read around the forums

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marc.tulley:
I think he was looking for evidence that they are linked somehow? Just best they are recomended for the same android version doesnt mean they are intrinsicly linked.

Hmmm so know one knows why they are flashing this thing? Just need to get your RDA of 'flash' I think lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
The way I read this is that for a specific version/build of Android a specific bootloader is recommended. That I can totally relate to.

I can also see how a specific radio might be "recommended" for a specific Android-build, as that build might rely on or exploit specific radio-implementation details or optimizations.

What I don't see is any link between how flashing a radio leads to a "recommended bootloader". Sorry for being difficult, but I just don't see it.

I'll consider this flashing OCD until proven otherwise :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PaulW21781:
No I agree, I've never known a specific bootloader to be a requirement for a Radio. Usually it's always the ROM itself requiring different versions due to RIL's and whatever else lies within, hence it usually always relates to the build version instead. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stellaryt:
Just updated it last night and seems good in a short time...

Thanks for share.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rosswaa:
so everyones flashing it even though they dont know what it does, cant see the differenece and because google said?

am i missing something or is there no point in flashing this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fihlvein:
The point is, it's latest and we want the latest! :p

It's like new CM9 nightly with no apparent changes to us - we still flash it. At least some of us. Anyway about this bootloader, I guess there's some potential bugs fixed, why would it exist otherwise.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
Sometimes just sometimes reading the changelog can reveal something terrible:

http://i.imgur.com/GjiIr.png
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
I'm with you on this one.

The point is, unlike a newer ROMs or radios, which typically have improvements, newer bootloaders typically have added restrictions. This was the case in the Nexus One days, but eventually HTC forced everyone onto the later bootloader by making it a requirement to run stock Gingerbread.

Thanks for that. It was awesome!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
flashed now over manhattan!....so far so good,no prob at all.:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
All nexus devices will not be locked with encrypted bootloaders. Shouldn't ever have to worry about a updated bootloader on Nexus devices that prevent fastboot oem unlock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That's not at all what I was talking about.

As one example, on the Nexus One's: initially there was one bootloader (0.33), then there was an update to the newer one (0.35). If you updated, you couldn't flash back to 0.33, as there was no 0.33 image available. And there were certain things that you needed 0.33 if you wanted to do (like downgrade to certain images). As another example, the XTC clip initially only worked with 0.33.

In my case with the Galaxy Nexus, I'm on KK14. If I flash a different one, how am I supposed to flash back to KK14? There is no image available for KK14. Unless you can tell me how to dump it... :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Hmmm. I have the PRIMEKK15 bootloader but not 14. Is this the stock bootloader that came with 4.0.1? you might be able to find it in the yakju 4.0.1 google stock images.

I looked in 4.0.2 google stock images and it comes with PRIMEKK15.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
14 is the stock bootloader that came with yakjuux (the North American GSM build). And to date, there are no images for any non-yakju builds. So, in order to not lose any (latent) functionality of 14, I personally will not flash a different bootloader until: 1) a newer one has added functionality, or 2) I get a hold of a 14 image.

EDIT: I suppose there may be a way to dump it using odin or something similar, but this is my first Samsung device, and I'm not that familiar with the Samsung tools.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maybewehitamoose:
I'm having trouble flashing. I get the following message:

sending 'booatloader' (2308 KB)... OKAY

writing 'booatloader'... FAILED (remote: Unknown Partition)

Then when I reboot, its still the old bootloader. Anyone know whats happening here?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] naerok:
Its bootloader not booatloader
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carne_Asada_Fries:
I think you misspelled bootloader, that's probably why.

EDIT: ninja'd
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maybewehitamoose:
d'oh. I don't know how I could have missed that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] notxel21:
Just updated with no problems! :D

Thanks OP! :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tigajr:
You are not proven wrong, yet. :D

From Open Source Project

"On Nexus S, Nexus S 4G, and Galaxy Nexus, each version of Android has only been thoroughly tested with on specific version of the underlying bootloader and cell radio software. However,

no compatibility issues are expected when running newer systems with older bootloaders and radio images according to the following tables

."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
That's generally true, yes.

In some cases like the 0.35 bootloader for the N1 it was released to slightly alter the partition layout to fit bigger kernels for GB. Using better kernel compression made that unneccesary in custom roms though.

Old radio images can sometimes have issues with newer versions of Android though. An example is the issues with pre-Froyo radios on Froyo for the N1. A more recent example is the XXKK1 radio and the constant dropouts you get while using it on anything newer than 4.0.1.

Not sure this one would make a difference though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Well, if you look at the device tree for maguro you will find a reason to upgrade. :)

Where did you get a US GSM version btw? Google?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
LOL. Yeah, according to that, if you had encrypted your data when you bought your device, and then had updated you bootloader when the newer version came out, you would have regretted it, hence the fix. :D

Yup, Google.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
My point was rather that the bootloader released on the device had incorrect partition sizes. The issue seems more related to installing an OTA. The normal OTAs don't contain the updated bootloaders from what I've seen, only the factory images. Perhaps they are pushed as a separate OTA update first as sometimes happened on the N1 but I'm not sure. If it wasn't included the issue would probably show up.

Nice. :D

[Off-topic] Omnichron:
I had the weirdest dream ever last night. Suddenly I'm in the middle of this war of angels. I don't know what the war was about or why. Only a sense of brotherhood united us in the fight. Then came a period of peace, and all the angels were lined up including myself, in front of us were this group of humanoids with heads of dolphins. They were tapped into everything that ever was, is, and will be (they can tell truth from lie). Then came a question to all of us: "Will those who came into existence after the original registry please step forward?" I thought to myself "the truth shall set me free" A girl next to me and I stepped forward. The humanoids analyzed us and said we were truthful. The girl and I then acquired this angelic blue glow. I was the angel with power over earthquakes and the girl had some strange markings on her face. I do not know what her power was. So then we were directed through a gate that closed behind us. The moment we stepped in I saw legions of blue glowing angels being exterminated. "They're killing us" I screamed and we started running for our lives. Earth governments, the other angels (original registry), and the earth elements were all against us, and soon I found out that the only way to survive was to plan 2-3 steps ahead of them and fool them, and that is how I have survived to this day. Then I woke up. Very unsettling. :confused:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piercedgeek:
I've purchased a mid/low end tablet for my mom (important: she's not very tech savvy) and was hoping to set up the tablet to allow her to manage photos that are stored on a desktop computer. I believe the computer is running either Vista or Windows 7. It, and the tablet, would be on the same wifi.

At a minimum I would need it to be able to display the photo (not just the file name) and allow for deleting of undesired photos.

Being able to move them between folders would be great as well. Also, cropping photos would be nice, but not too important.

Again, she's not too savvy with this sort of stuff, so I'm hoping for something with a fairly simple interface where she can just scroll through photos, and delete as she goes.

The device is the Vizio 8" Tablet. It runs 2.3.

[LG Revolution] y2d2:
From the various source I've found online, including a video explaining how to set up a SIP account on Gingerbread's built-in SIP software, it seems that I should have an "Internet Call Settings" under Settings -> Call Settings. I don't.

FWIW, I'm using the GingerVolt 1.3 ROM (by mtmichaelson) and the Blitzkrieg kernel. I didn't check whether the pre-Blitzkrieg had this setting enabled under Call Settings or not (oops), so it may be the new kernel w/o SIP support? Or the GingerVolt ROM? Or did Verizon take the feature out of their Gingerbread 2.3.4 OTA update?

I'd ask in the GingerVolt/Blitzkrieg threads, but I'm a new user with less than 10 posts and can't post in development forums.
