I saw you posted somewhere for a GPS test app for CM9. GPS Test by Chartcross works great for me.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Yeah, your 4G may show as on but the built-in hotspot does not use it yet. Test your speeds...speedtest.cfl.rr.com. You will get 3G speeds.

[Epic 4G General] LORDFIRE00:
hi everyone... man, this is an interesting thread. just by reading this thread if feels like a user classroom. hahahah... anyways, question, when i installed cm9 and tried the temporary install for el30 to update my prl and profile, my phone would always boot into cm9 installed of the el30. why is that?

and as far as the gps is concerned, on the cm9 website, they say some people report it not working, so gps (telenav) is not 100% for everyone yet.

It is easiest to have a dropbox but any photo file share site will do. If you select "insert image" in your post box it asks you for a link to the photo. I can give you a dropbox link in PM if you want. We both get a larger dropbox then.

Here is a little build.prop tweak to help keep that precious ram available.

dalvik.vm.heapstartsize=5m
dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=32m
dalvik.vm.heapsize=92m

I currently have 190m available while idle (almost everything closed), whereas before it would sit between 130-160m.

This should also help with apps that need a bigger heapsize.

[General Topics] thezombiehunter:
its my device. i deserve the right to do what i want with it. i believe in a person's right to try possibly stupid things as long as it doesn't deny another of their rights. rooting doesn't deny anyone anything. therefore i don't see any good reason why it should be illegal.

I don't see any reason why this won't get extended. Jailbreaking's kind of 'a thing' culturally, imo.
[General Topics] zelendel:
Apple likes complete controls and by the terms you agree to it does technically break the tos we all agree to when use an OS. Just because its popular doesn't make it legal. While some OS do look the other way apple will not. Never have and never will
[General Topics] mepstein10:
And that is why apple has earned the ire of many geeks and nerds of this generation. They are as reviled as Microsoft was, a decade before. They'll learn once those who they depend on for support, i.e. their customers, abandon them. Some sooner, some later, some never, but they will feel pain in the only place it counts, their pocketbook. Perhaps then, they can reevaluate their attitude toward their customers and the public in general.
[General Topics] synaesthetic:
GPL says you can do whatever the hell you want as long as you post the source code if you distribute it. There's no legal grounds for legally blocking rooting Android devices, but Apple would be pleased as punch to have iOS jailbreaking become a violation of the DMCA again.

[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Does anyone have access to an *unrooted* Wind phone with the original software installed? I have an idea how to assemble the original sbf for it: a fastboot recovery.

Basically, my idea is:

1) enable adb

2) use adb to reboot into fastboot

3) fastboot boot a custom recovery that will dump the relevant code groups to sdcard

4) use the pieces from the sdcard to assemble the original sbf

So, to try this I need someone that's somewhat technically comfortable (i.e. able to use adb and fastboot). I can walk someone through it on linux. I haven't made the recovery yet, it's sort of still a brainstorming mode. If anyone bites we can work the details out.

Basically, I'll implement it first for my phone and then post instructions. The phone will be left untouched by doing this (except for files written to the /sdcard).
[Milestone XT720 General] mchlbenner:
I will look for it tomorrow why do you want it.

Ok
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
We've never had the wind sbf.
[Milestone XT720 General] AllGamer:
it'll be hard to find Windmobile has discontinued the phone

of the existing users, not many are aware of XDA, and i've been spreading word of it on Winds forum
[Milestone XT720 General] smaurice2001:

Mioze7Ae Your one of my hero that make that xt720 livable. I have 7 of those xt720 at work. I root them all and install custom roms exept one that I keep original to make a nandroid or SBF. If you help me, I have a chance for sucsess. I love all the linux distribution that are base on Debian, I dump Ubuntu becose I can not stand unity. now I am running mint on most of my computers. I am not a programmer but I am a hardware expert. I look forward to work with you.

sorry for my english I am french Canadian.

[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Great! Give me a few days to get some instructions/needed files put together. :D
[Milestone XT720 General] vsviridov:
Any luck with that? I have access to unrooted Wind XT720 if you still want it.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Ok, here goes:

Step 1: prepare sdcard (root of sdcard is /sdcard)

Download OpenRecovery-XT720-01.zip (http://android.fjfalcon.com/Files/Tools/OpenRecovery-XT720-01.zip)

Extract onto root of sdcard (creates /sdcard/OpenRecovery directory and OpenRecovery.zip)

Download attached dump-partitions-02.zip and put in /sdcard/OpenRecovery/updates

Create empty folder on root of sdcard called dump (/sdcard/dump)

Step 2: fastboot and dump (you need a computer that has both adb and fastboot working)

On PC: Download attached openrecovery-fastboot.img

On Phone: Enable ADB debugging

Plug phone into PC via usb

On PC: Run "adb reboot bootloader" on the PC

Phone will boot to "Fastboot bootloader"

On PC: Run "fastboot boot openrecovery-fastboot.img" (may require sudo)

Phone will boot into OpenRecoveryXT720

On Phone: select "Apply update" > "dump-partitions-02.zip"

Wait for dump to complete

Reboot phone

This will fill the /sdcard/dump folder with these files:

boot.img boot.md5

bpsw.img bpsw.md5

cdrom.img cdrom.md5

cdt.img cdt.md5

cust.img cust.md5

devtree.img devtree.md5

lbl.img lbl.md5

logo.img logo.md5

recovery.img recovery.md5

system.img system.md5

zip up the /sdcard/dump directory and send it to me and I will attempt to assemble an sbf. I don't think any of these partitions contain personal/sensitive data, but I can't be 100% certain so PM is completely fine or you can gmail them to me (mioze...@). Actually, it's possible that kpanic.img might have private/sensitive data (I think it's where crashed kernels get dumped so it could contain anything that was in memory at the time of a crash) and I doubt I need that partition anyway. So don't send that one if you're concerned about that.

Edit: just a moment -- removing kpanic from dump script

Edit: attached dump-partitions-02.zip which doesn't dump kpanic

Every since rooting my phone my phone has had a terrible reception. My friends have Verizon and have 3g and signal where i do not at all.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
What radio (baseband) version are you on, and have you done a *228 option 2 to update your prl (perfered roaming list)? Also what rom are you on, if stock rom what android version?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hemingsen93:
I have baseband 2.15.00.07.28, yes i have tried the *228 , and im running cm7
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
That may be the issue, that radio is quite old, its the original froyo radio. You may want to try flashing the latest one 2.15.10.07.07 thru hboot. You gan find it here Pvillecomp.com.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hemingsen93:
Still seem to be having the bad signal issue. Any other thoughts?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Did you do another *228 after upgrading the radio? Other than that i am not sure what it could be. If your friends have the same verizon plan as you and they get a signal, so should you. My only other sugestion would be to ruu the phone and then do a factory reset and see if that helps.

[Verizon Droid Charge] Undzis:
I can change the boot animation with np thanks to imnuts for his kernel. where im having issues is I cant get the dots boot animation to work on my wifes charge. you can find dots in the uot kitchen under boot animations. its labeled uot kitchen and is second from the bottom on list. every time i try to either flash or just replace files with root explore the boot screen goes total black. i change back or change to a different custom boot and everything is fine. Is there anyway i can fix this or can anybody offer any suggestions on how to get it to load right?
[Verizon Droid Charge] PaulN64007:
make sure you have the .zip placed in /system/media Also the file needs to be renamed to sanim.zip
[Verizon Droid Charge] Undzis:
i think you miss understand. i do that and my boot screen is black the entire time. using the dots boot animation. i delete file adn phone returns to normal or i change to a different boot animation im fine. im just having trouble getting the 'dots' to work right. but ty for your help
[Verizon Droid Charge] PaulN64007:
make sure permissions are rw-r--r-- for the sanim.zip file. If that doesn't work there might just be something wrong with the .zip file
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
You should be careful in using bootanimation on the Charge, some don't work and may even bootloop your phone. I have learned this the hard way. If you found a custom bootanimation design just for the Charge then it's safe to use otherwise look around to see which one ppl suggest to use or have used.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Undzis:
i understand that i could boot loop the phone but that is easy fixed. when i say screen goes black i dont mean boot loop. phone will boot just with a lack of any animation.

with all do respect i know how to change the animation. i do it to my phone from time to time with no issues. Im just trying to get a specific boot animation to work on my wifes charge. i check the desc.txt and everything looked ok to me but this is what it looks like.

480 800 30

p 0 0 part0

i org found the animation in uot kitchen. its the second to last animation on their list. its just colored dots changing around the android robot. i could try to upload the file i have if that will help. But if anybody could hel get it working i would appreciate it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
Upload the file and i will try to get it working for you.

[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
Here's the fixed animation, it's a little choppy, but that's just how the images are positioned. If you want to try to speed it up go ahead and change the frame rate to 45 or 60 instead of 30. And what type of errors are you getting when trying to recompile your APK's?

sanim.zip

MD5: 0FEAFE86E9D9822463F5A319CCA8BA5E
[Verizon Droid Charge] Undzis:
awesome man, thanks. ill try it out and let ya know how it does. Also, im not getting any errors that i know of. It complies fine as far as i know. phone just boot loops.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Undzis:
thanks again. i got your ver to work fine. what program are you using to edit and make the animations and decx file? i just tried to take your file and open the decx file and change 30 to 45 to see how it is and it just black screen boots on me again.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
Just used winrar to extract the file then to repackage. Make sure you use 'store' as the compression type when placing the desc.txt back into the zip.

World Of Goo

Osmos

you can download the games as often as you want with no DRM whatsoever. (also on windows/mac/linux)

but yeah as i said you can just redownload the games. i bought the first humble bundle ever and can still download the games it contained ;)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Themes and Apps] orlandoxpolice:
yea I just bought it. you can directly download the .apks. And also get the windows games with steam keys.

But I would like to share some bugs I found while using 1.1A as I didn't upgrade to 1.4 as the links were down. Can you verify whether these are faced by any of you !

1. It takes time to wake up from the lock screen. ie even after a hard key press the screen wakes up after say 3-4 secs.

2. Data connection works with flaws. 2G/3G data seems to be buggy.

3. The notification power widget and power widget doesnt work properly. ie, even if i disable/enable Data/Orientation Lock the effect is not applied. I cant even change it in settings. Only solution is a reboot.

4. Incoming call button issues. (Solved in later versions)

Other than these, the rom is pretty stable. :)
