Did the GPS change you made work? Is you tablet actually grabbing satellites over North America?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] MrKwatz:
Yes.

If I mount from adb shell su and then exit (after checking mount) for adb push it does not retain rw.

Doing the mount command from Total Commander fails. Checking the box to mount /system from ES File Explorer does nothing.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] dwilli40:
Yes, the change to gps made a huge difference. I went from taking 5 minutes or more to find my location to almost instantly.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] xi Slick ix:
Did you change the gpsconfig.xml file in /system/etc/gps folder? And if you did, which line(s) did you edit? I'm looking at the file in Notepad++ just trying to comb through it all and I don't see us.pool.ntp.org or asia.pool.ntp.ord anywhere..

Thanks

---

Never mind, just found the gps.conf file in the root of /etc. FasterFix did indeed change the Asian setting to a north-american.pool.ntp.org. I'll give this a try today, and if it can't find me in under 3 minutes, i'll try changing it to us.pool.ntp.org and see if that makes a difference.
[General Questions and Answers] vrocipes:
Hello, i wanted to root my phone and install custom rom, but i have the following problem.

I followed this tutorial's 1,2 and 4 step. (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300)

And then i updated with this (http://www.mediafire.com/?utpdjggalstxz), because on coinflip rom details said i need to update firmware.

Now i cant even boot into phone normaly, it automatically restarts continuosly, but i can get to bootloader-reboot menu.

What can i do, and where did i go wrong? Thank you!
[HTC Sensation] tk_xda:
It is a known issue that faux kernal may cause the phone to freeze up, requiring battery pull and reboot when you press the power button to turn the screen off while using the camera app.

Do others also experience this if the screen turns off on its own due to inactivity time with camera app running on screen? What about if camera app is in background when screen goes or is turned off?

Does faux kernal need a camera fix similar to the one for bricked?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] sachin kundu:
Yes buddy its a known issue that faux kernel freeze phone manytimes,but camera crashes fix is not available,have u wiped cache and dalvik cache before flashing kernel ?
[HTC Sensation] tk_xda:
I did superwipe when I installed the kernal as part of the ARHD ROM so I think I am covered there.

My issues seem to occur only if I use the camera app. I was intending to ask if the scenarios I described in the second paragraph of post 1 are part of this issue, when it is experienced by others.
[HTC Sensation] tk_xda:
Any comments about whether these scenarios are considered part of the known problem?
[HTC Sensation] tk_xda:
Bump.......
[HTC Sensation] masondoctorjt:
Yes , you must use back button to exit the camera so that it is not running in the background. It is a conflict of faux's extreme power management, and htc's camera power management. It probably won't be fixed. Just remember to use back button to leave Camera app. Also, no need to pull battery, just press power+up+down volume and hold all three and after 5 seconds or so, it should restart.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] citsong:
What lines did you change in the build.prop and since I'm using a custom rom would it end up being a bit more tricky to modify? Just looked through the build.prop on the phone and a little confused b/c I see 2 spots for model and a bunch of other spots that =HTC and Holiday.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ikkuy:
replace with the following two lines with whatever original were:

ro.product.brand=samsung

I just did it on mine, and now i m playing modern combat 3 :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] citsong:
Tried changing those but didn't work for me. Guessing cuz of the custom rom I'm running there's probably more that I need to edit. At least I got my tablet to play the gameloft games.

I'm using Amora recovery and I was wondering the best way to rename backups that are still able to be loaded without aborting
[HTC Rezound] WizeGuyDezignz:
I doubt that this is the right section for your post, but I would also like to know the answer to this.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Yes should be in general. From my experience with clockworkmod recovery you could not rename recoveries. Have not tried with amon ra.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
You can use Rom manager to rename backups, it will generate a New md5 I believe, I used to use it aalllll the time, it made life easier. i also used clockworkmod when I used it. Never tried it on amon ra.

Otherwise, it will probably be easier to put them in folders or something..
[HTC Rezound] con247:
you also can't have ANY spaces in the folder name.
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
On CWM and Amon Ra, I have renamed without issue using Root Explorer. Just make your backup, reboot phone, go into the proper folder and find your backup, long press on the backup you want to rename, and choose the rename option.

[HTC EVO 3D] bloodrain954:
No they aren't. Did you read the article?
[HTC EVO 3D] weidnerj:
How can they do it? CDMA verse GSM technology. Maybe in the LTE market possibly if using the same radio frequencies and technology...

Secretly send some where in the KC metro area...
[HTC EVO 3D] paallday:
Yes and I quote

" The first is the U.S. Federal Communication Commission's 2010 decision to eliminate the "Home Market Rule", which prevented carriers from forcing rivals into compulsory roaming agreements in regions they owned spectrum (AT&T voiced its frustration at the time). The elimination means that even though Sprint owns spectrum in these two metropolitan regions, it can refuse to use that spectrum, instead renting it out and relying on compulsory roaming from AT&T."

The second regulatory change is the FCC's 2011 "extended" roaming rules (a link to these rules on the FCC's servers appear to be inaccessible at present), which required carriers to offer high speed broadband roaming to small rivals, as well as voice services. Again this allows Sprint to piggyback off of AT&T's high-speed LTE network in these metro regions."

How else should take this?

You can aready roam on different networks, from my understanding its full time roaming. But I do not know that's why I asked

Sent from my PG86100 using Xparent Red Tapatalk
[HTC EVO 3D] t3project:
they ARE NOT selling contracts at&t! they are using at&t's network as their cellular backbone in those cities. same thing as roaming onto a verizon network.

how can they do it? more than likely they will be placing the proper equipment on already established at&t towers. same as the local telco hanging copper on power poles.
[HTC EVO 3D] Adiost:
For god's sake, find yourself some cozy place to discuss Sprint services other than this forum section. Jesus, E3D isn't only a Sprint product, FYI, there is GSM version, and they sell it all over the world, you know, and it's pretty popular.
[HTC EVO 3D] paallday:
Yea I know theirs a gsm one, and at&t ppl can talk about at&t if they want.

Now go find a nice cozy, rock to crawl under n die

[HTC EVO 3D] paallday:
Isn't it kinda semantics? Their using laws to make at&t let their customers onto at&t full time network, I am sure sprint has 2 pay at&t for this, so they are basically selling contracts 2 at&t against at&ts will.

Sent from my PG86100 using Xparent Blue Tapatalk
[HTC EVO 3D] bloodrain954:
It has nothing to do with selling contracts, not even close.
[HTC EVO 3D] paallday:
Ur using the word selling 2 literally. They are putting their contracts 2 at&t and then giving at&t money for their services? Like I said semantics.

Sent from my PG86100 using Xparent Blue Tapatalk
[HTC EVO 3D] t3project:
ok. so using your logic, sprint sold your contract to verizion long ago because everytime you roam you are most likely on their tower. so, are you a sprint or verizon customer? its just semantics.
[HTC EVO 3D] paallday:
no that's different (at least a lil) because I am usually NOT roaming.

If this is done then you will essentially be roaming all the time, on at&t, against their will.

So what's the problem. You still pay the Sprint rate and you still have service. Who cares about this other than AT&T

[HTC EVO 3D] thematrixkid17:
I live in northern WV. The towers in this area are owned by Ntelos. My phone shows 3g signal just like it would anywhere else. I get service just like I would anywhere else. These roaming contracts are nothing new, and you probably use other carrier's towers every day, but you don't even know it.
[HTC EVO 3D] paallday:
Roaming contracts r not new no.

But as far as I have read doing it for a whole city of any size is.

Sent from my PG86100 using Xparent Blue Tapatalk
[HTC EVO 3D] DoctorComrade:
What is your reading comprehension level?

Sprint is, and I quote from the article, "force AT&T to sell it roaming." Basically whats going is that Sprint left that area and is using AT&T's network to provide service for their customers there. They can do this by two regulations in place that put AT&T in a corner, forcing them to sell them roaming.

No where in the article does it talk about contracts.

There are already many threads on this but at least this one is in the right section

first thing you need to know is your model number. It should be B30,B40 ect if it is above B70 you are out of luck. if it is below B70 then download franc's tools an NVFlashable rom of your choice and the ubuntu.img. extract francs tools to your desktop, extract the nvflashable rom to the same folder and put the ubuntu.img in the same folder

and the revolver 3.11.1 nvflaahable version here

http://www.multiupload.com/PFMWB39SK4

unzip franks tools to desktop or documents or w/e then extract both the ubuntu.img.gz to get the ubuntu.img and the nvflashable revolver rom and put the system, boot and recovery IMG files into the franks tools folder. then run frankc123.exe

Put our tablet in apx mode (i assume you know how because you said you rooted with it) then plug it in and on the dual boot page of frankc123.exe hit install. it may take up to half an hour. then to boot into andorid just boot normally. to boot into ubuntu do what you would normally do to get into recovery

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrevankyle:
Your external sd will not be touched but make sure your backups are on it and not your internal sd. you mght want to take out your micro before you start

Yes recovery will send you to ubuntu, No you cannot flash updates as usual as ubuntu takes over the recovery partition but you can do them manually with android commander or adb. that might cause issues though and is not suggested.

As long as there is a version compiled for ARM then yes
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattiadj:
Ok.

So in the end how can I revert to my actual situation with CMW recovery and revolver rom?

I think the procedure to install update and files for modding became quite complicated...

Usually after revolver i flash panda test kernel, hc stock fonts and oc daemon.

I think became hard to implement these mods with adb. No?

However tomorrow or at least day after tomorrow I'll try your guide and report my experience!

Thanks!

I think I would like to keep my phone as stock as possible and just have root to remove the bloat and use programs like DroidWall and Titanium Backup. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get it rooted? Are there standard root techniques (with little risk of bricking the phone) that I can try?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] eggwolio:
I rooted after flashing to 2.3.6 with the instructions listed in the guide in the development forum. I skipped the kernel step since I had already received the upgrade from AT&T which disabled CarrierIQ. My phone is now on the 2.3.6 kernel so it is CarrierIQ free, however my firmware is 2.3.5 and when I try to do the update via AT&T, it fails. The phone is running perfectly though, and I'm on stock 2.3.5, I'm just unable to do the OTA update. If that's going to be a problem for you, then your best bet is to wait and see if someone comes up with another rooting method or someone uploads a rooted version of 2.3.6 which can be flashed with ODIN.

Hi,

I wanted to root this rom (which seems stable :) ), but zergrush dont seems to be effective (probably patched, blue helion), so I imagined another way to do it, using CF-ROOT but without all the tweaks and stuffs, only root :

Also I made an image of my system.rfs freshly rooted if anyone's interested, should probably be flashable.

Maybe there's a quicker way, but I didn't found it, you can tell me :)

This is a very well known flaw. Old news

I fall to see how it's a flaw. It's a useless feature that just ruins an image :confused:
[Xperia Play General] TLRtheory:
lol, iphone zoom murders the already disappointing picture quality, even with their falsely important "high dynamic range" crap.

there's software out there that remedies this "flaw," but if you want real zooming, get a real camera.

3rd party soft like fx camera zoom fixes this flaw. Hope it helps
[Xperia Play General] odst0016:
All zooming does is the equivalent of a pinch to zoom. It crops the image something that if you want to do you can do after you snap the image.
[Xperia Play General] Sniper Spr3e:
basically all 99% of phone do when they zoom is actually crop and enlarge a group of pixels of the whole image this same process can be done on a computer with about 3x better results so this "flaw" is actually a useless feature only people with no knowledge of photography or photo editing use. if im taking a picture of something far away i would use a proper camera with a

optical zoom

.

basially digital zoom is useless and the iphone owner is obviously completely oblivious to the fact he actually ruined hes picture with zoom

havent you wondered why zooming in on a full picture looks better then a digital zoomed picture of the same object?

basically no flaw here and most companies dont see the point of digital zoom as it was a "feature" to attract people to the idea of cheap digital cameras when they first came out know even cheap ones have atleast a 2x optical zoom

incase you dont know:

digital zoom: lens doesnt move picture magically gets zoomed

optical zoom: lens moves and adjusts normally sticking further out of the camera to get a true zoom
