[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaggettBeaver:
That's the way Netflix works. It works that way even on other devices like the PS3 or Roku. The point is to get it on your screen as quickly as possible, and then as the buffer fills more, it improves the quality.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nomailx:
*** edited with answer ***

I tried to unlock the bootloader of my xperia x10 mini, using windows 7 home premium 64 bit.

first i used

msm7227 to do it. No problems there.

But when It comes to test if it's unlocked, I used s1tool, but when i plug the phone keeping back pressed, s1tool just waits until i stop it.

Also windows loads a faulty SECM flash usb driver.

What should I do?

any help would be appreciated.

tnx.

PS: The problem was the missing drivers i found in this link:

when swapping kernels would it be necessary to redo a battery calibration?

Google has said that battery "calibrations" do nothing to help battery life. The battery stats have nothing to do with how the phone reads how much battery life it has, so wiping them is pointless.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
adam it appears that the last leak from prezkret i997uckl2 was the official. the issue is that we cant root it without using a custom kernel. for that reason if there are some minor diffs we will need to use the leaked kernel regardless. all attemps to root other than a non secure kernel fail. without root we cant dump the partitions. so id suggest just using the odin package that prezkret posted 6+ weeks ago to create the oneclick. thanks for your efforts regardless. the mac users need some love and att nor samsung will give it to them...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AdamOutler:
Rooting is not my concern. My concern is to get a total stock reversion package. Custom kernels can be flashed later as a upgrade. Thanks for the tip on prezkret. Ill convert an Odin package or flash a zip and pull my own partitions via UART.

Expect something next week sometime.

We had this leak since Nov. If it has the same file size and time and date, it kinda makes you wonder about all the statements about how much faster and snappier and better battery etc...

It's possible that just a factory reset will make your phone speedier.

The time for the Official was set right. After the final and last leak it takes a month for it to be finalized and released Officially, Although It did feel longer.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
kl2 was mid December, check prezkrets post for an exact date. I 6weeks for testing isn't bad. what pisses me off is the 4 months they used to develope the firmware only started in sepember, what were they doing till then? the phone was advertised to be released with by samsung in January with gb and HDMI not one or the other, the i9000 already had gb. what was going on that they held us back all those months? the ki3 leak was a mess, data issues, galaxy s animation was still presant and so forth. far from finninshed, they made significant progress in 3 months, removed carrier IQ then decided to give us a screwed up launcher without wallpaper scrolling. were they sitting on their asses till September hoping nobody would notice their $200 flagship phone was discontinued after 3 months and was a year behind on firmware compared to similar models from the same company?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Ensuring that it was indeed broken crap - we can't have AT&T releasing a good firmware that will keep a customer owning the phone, right?

AT&T claims that it's quality testing that delays this stuff, but the clear boneheaded mistakes that make it through QA and the fact that some devices (like I9100->I777 and I9000->Captivate) can run firmwares from their international brethren with little change means that AT&T is delaying these updates to mangle them.

Over in I777-land, the I9100 firmware releases are clearly of far higher quality than the I777 ones despite the fact that AT&T is supposedly doing all of this extra testing no international carrier does.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jvanlew:
Interesting theory. What do you think they do to mangle them? Take the Infuse update for example, are you talking about things as simple as the non-scrolling wallpaper in our leak/official or more low-level things to slow it down some?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
i somewhat disagree with entropy and mostly agree. i found call quality on the infuse and captivate to be better than their galaxy s bretheren from other carriers.

that's all i disagree on. the captivate had hsupa removed, no option to disable data, the samsung implimentation made it dificult to force edge. there was no voice dialer. no bluetooth voice dialing. no sideloading apps. the sources were incomplete for 2.1 so unhelpful compilied his kernels from vibrant sources. i couldn't get flash to work on stock even though 2.1 did have a flash plugin on the captivate, wifi tethering was disabled depending on the firmware, usb tethering was hidden depending on the firmware (apparently there is a way to do it but it's not a straitforward option, tetering is not something i often do and i have only used wifi so my knowledge it on the cappy is limited) the libs and kenrel and possibly other rom ellements were designed to only work correctly with the captivate modem that disabled hsupa, if you used another modem it broke bluetooth audio in calls. the captiuvate was intentionally crippled! there isnt even a question about that.

the infuse firmware is a little better but the timeline is obsurd!

if stock android wasnt so ugly and the contacts and mms app were more feature rich id be aosp all the way but the nexus phones are a bit lackluster, the backlights on the nexus s being hardwired to the screen is bs, what about notifications? one thing that made the nexus 1 great was that awesome backlit trackball. the interface sucks but the native features of the os work flawlessly on aosp. i wish manufaturers and carriers didnt deny the end user the native features like tethering however you please with no headaches in order to brand the phone with a unique ui and hold back the update schedule. the current state of android phones is really depressing.

the leak was pre loaded with bloatware, it was the year before that they were busy half-a$$ing the os and bloating it with useless apps
[HTC Rezound] antawnm26:
Im struggling to wrap my head around this google voice setup.

1. I want to know how to get around the fact that it switches numbers when it calls numbers, so therefore you cant put it in your favorites in Verizon list....

2. I heard of an app forgot the name so that it automatically calls your google voice number that you program your pin in with it...

3. So is it a way to trick your phone into thinking its on wifi and make calls that way?

4. Is it really worth the trouble?
[HTC Rezound] twolasrnames:
Check out GVoice, it will let you make google voice calls over wifi and 4g, without using minutes. I'm assuming that is what you are trying to do?

I think you can get to the voice settings on a computer, and change what number is displayed when you call over your google voice number.

I'm not sure what you mean by #2. You can set up google voice to forward calls to as many other phones as you want, if that is what you are asking. You don't need a separate app for that, again it's in the settings on the computer.

I have it set up so when people call my google voice number, my work BB and my personal phone ring. When I'm worried about my minutes, I use Gvoice to make calls over 3g, 4g, or wifi using my voice number.

It's pretty easy to set up this way.

This is my first boot animation I made. I used some wallpaper and a 3D can to make this animation using mostly photoshop. The text was added onto the wallpaper and then wraped around the can. Then I made the can spin and exported the animation into JPG files. I know everybody has their own favorite American college football team so here is mine.

Do not try to flash this. Use root explorer to place this zip file in your boot animaion folder.

How to export animation:

Make sure all images are in RGB from begining to end. If they are not just open and save in RGB. Photoshop tends to want to save everything in sRGB.

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] photonmedia:
So we have all done a factory reset and watched in horror as the Setup Wizard loads up all the crapware that Lenovo packed in. Well now that you have Root and CWR, go ahead and do a Wipe Data and Wipe Cache, then Advanced ->Wipe Dalvik Cache.

Then when it reboots, go through all the initial setup steps until you get to that last screen that has the "Done" button in the bottom right.

Instead, touch the bottom-right corner of the screen to bring up the settings and go into Applications -> Development and enable Debugging.

Now:

adb shell
su
#mount -o rw,remount /system
#cd /system/app
# mv PreInstall.apk PreInstall.apk.bak
# mv PreInstall.odex PreInstall.odex.bak

Now feel free to touch that Done button and the wizard will close out without installing all that Bloat!

YMMV

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] berbecverde:
They just did.

Read the first post.

If you still do not understand then be more specific, what is that you do not understand.

What is missing from the first post is that after you enable Debugging in Applications -> Development, you have to connect your tablet to the computer, and you must have adb on the computer.(but this is kind of obvious for most people).

then from the shell you enter those commands.

In windows you open the command prompt by holding the shift key in your adb folder then right click with the mouse and choose open command prompt here.

than enter the commands from post 1.
[Xperia Arc General] BirdyOfPrey:
Hi, I just bootloader unlocked my Arc S, and I want to know if I can backup the full filesystem with Nandroid backup.

For this, as I've been reading on the great namaste guide, I should flash a recovery kernel like recoveryARC.img and then do the backup, but won't this overwrite the stock kernel from the phone? Or this kernel is only used to boot on recovery mode?

Tkx!
[Xperia Arc General] LenAsh:
It is just for recovery and is "temporary". Follow the guide and everything will remain as you want.
[Xperia Arc General] Bhambya:
The command is

fastboot boot recoveryArc.img

This will not overwrite the kernel.

But is you use

fastboot flash boot recoveryArc.img

Then it will overwrite the kernel.

Probably a bad download or flash if no one else is reporting that problem on the ROM you are using. Re-download and push the .apk alone if it still persists reflash the whole badboy!

Following the thread that I wrote (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1356325), newer versions should be at least LA7 (we have had LA6 Serbian verion posted a day or two ago) or LBsomething. Any other version would not add anything to the system itself but probably correct some local issues.

Maybe including this correction on an LA6 or newer system would be nice then :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] hkgrob:
Thanks @The_Steph, good thread. My explanation to ashkan was possibly over simplified.
