[Motorola Droid X2] Thalinor:
Lets evaluate this statement (by Motorola):

The Droid 3 and Bionic are slated to get ICS in the 3rd quarter of 2012.

The Droid X was slated to get a froyo update the year it came out "Before the end of summer" which ended up being several days after summer. The statement of "by the end..." means expect it on the last day possible, according to Moto standards. Being that the DX2 ICS build is not even listed with a date, and that it has been said time and time again by Moto that they are not even confirming the DX2 will get ICS, I hope no one is holding their breath.

I think its safe to assume that the Droid 3 and Bionic's "3rd Quarter release" means sometime at the end of the third quarter; ie: September. I would bet the farm we won't be seeing an "official" Moto ICS DX2 build before next fall, if we ever see one. At that point who's going to care? Dragon or the CM team will have it done way before then anyway.

Lastly, we have quad core phones hitting the market in a month or two. How many people will still be using the DX2 by the end of the year? I hope everyone was smart and held off buying a new device with their last early upgrade. My DX2 is a warranty replacement for the DX. I really wanted to buy a Galaxy Nexus but they took so long releasing it that I couldn't justify the purchase knowing quads were about to hit in March. Moto knows all of this and I am sure that's why they are dragging their feet. One more reason never to buy another Moto phone.

Really hope the SGSIII is picked up by Verizon or Brenda Raney is getting a few nasty vm's. I am getting tired of Verizon's crap. As for Moto; I have owned more Moto phones then any other manufacture and will never buy a phone they have touched again. I don't care if Google owns Moto now, its a paper marriage and they are NOT sleeping with each other. Don't expect the removal of encrypted bootloaders, timely updates, or a Blur-less bug free device anytime soon.*

*Edit: Unless of course you download a community made rom. I really think these rom teams should start getting creative with their names. How about "Moto's Viagra" because w/o the dev community, Moto's nothing but a limp ****. ; )

[General Questions and Answers] ruscan.calin:
here is link for firmware WM 6.1/6.5

http://all-cooked.blogspot.com/

let me know your phone was recently unlocked? this is "dead phone after unlock"- known problem after unlock a phone also could be hardware faulty

also check battery voltage also a problem with ipaq series is that not to many tools leaked from HP

most important check battery voltage blinking indicates low battery phone can not start also use a battery from another ipaq by example 6515 they are compatible

I know this phone it's nice

by the way what did you do to reflash there are instructions check link above
[General Questions and Answers] taka87:
Only Sorry for my bed English...

I charge the battery into the another battery charger. When I put the battery and try to turn on phone only lights but nothing ltter watch on the screen. When I try to reflash with new rom into SD card after that I push mute+OK(left size on the phone)+ power on buton only lights but nothing watch on display. After that I try to make master reset the result is same only display light nothing writing into display . When display is light I hold power on button after 20 seconds any song hear same as when I try turn on on dhe display watches anything as "Are ou sure want to power of phone ... YES/NO" . Do you thing the problem is softaware or hardware ? I don't know whats happen with this phone before.
[General Questions and Answers] ruscan.calin:
this is how to reset

1. Press the power button to turn off the HP iPAQ.

2. Press and hold the Voice Commander button on the left panel of your HP iPAQ and the power button at the same time.

3. Hold the buttons for 2 seconds.

4. A Clean Boot message displays, indicating successful restoration of factory settings on your HP iPAQ.

I can't say exactly because it's not in my hand but try this tutorial to see if phone is software bricked

http://my.opera.com/Wutske/blog/2009/12/25/bricked-ipaq-614c-dnw-to-the-rescue

if not working sorry but this is hardware problem

good luck and tell me more about results!
[General Questions and Answers] AsusP:
Hi, i am having a similar issue. I just received a brand-new battery for the HP 614c and no matter how much i charge it (even after the green light turns-on) it switches off seconds after being disconnected from AC saying "low battery voltage detected, switching off within 10 seconds, YES/NO" (while you can't actually press any option), is there anything to do with this problem? I bought this battery cause i thought it was due to the old one but the same thing is happening.

Thank you.

I installed ubuntu 9.10 and fedora

apt-got openjdk and then ran android sdk to download and unpack platform-tools in the right place..

Is there a way to use adb and fastboot so I won't need my laptop to connect to my other android devices? or is it impossible on the ATP?

I get "cannot execute binary files" from terminal..

thanks!

adb is in system/bin of the device..

I can share it if you need it

[Acer Iconia A500] SugarCoatedAngel:
I know a lot of people in these forums would tell me to try out each ROM and see what I like best, as I did with my EVO 3D. I just got my Acer Iconia A500 yesterday, and rooted this afternoon after careful reading and downloading all necessary stuff. Anyway I want a STABLE, sexy, easily themeable ROM and I'm not too familiar with Honeycomb yet, as my EVO 3D is still Gingerbread. Any suggestions? I would really appreciate it.

TIA!
[Acer Iconia A500] MCBuot1977:
kjy2010's Icy Faux 3.2.1 was a great, solid ROM. From what I understand, though, he is no longer here at XDA. With that in mind, Civato's Flexstriker is pretty damn good. I haven't really used any of the other ROMs enough to give an opinion on them.
[Acer Iconia A500] redguardsoldier:
Please install Thor's ROM v14.2 :D. It's stable, sexy, and handy. I tried Honeylicious also, and I can say that Thor's ROM offer much more useful function like the quick bar toggle and shut down menu while being smoother and quicker :D.
[Acer Iconia A500] serviciosmoviles1:
the best

If u want speed, stable rom, accurate gps, easy customizable and clean easy interface give a try to Lightspeed 2.1 with stock kernel.... smooth like butter, no crashes at all... very very good rom :)
[Acer Iconia A500] huck_d:
There are not many ROMs available. You can try every one :)

As for me, I tried a couple of ROMs and decided to keep on the stock one. Just rooted it and removed all Acer apps.
[Acer Iconia A500] deboyz1014:
Yeah like other have said, try each one and be sure to test out all functionalities you would use.

I like KYJ and CIVATO roms but for the life of me I can't get GPS to work. Only ROM that work for me is Thor 14.2 but that does not mean you will encounter the same issue as I have.
[Acer Iconia A500] subnoize soulja:
In my opinion if you want a ROM that is all the things you described civato's flexstriker base 8 R2 is really nice and its got a few different theme choices and also thors ROM 14.2 is a really good ROM as well just not as much with the theming
[Acer Iconia A500] maris__:
+1 to this.
[Acer Iconia A500] SugarCoatedAngel:
Thanks, I'll check the flexstriker out shortly. I'm running Tabooyes ROM right now. Seems good, a bit of glitch/lag but overall pretty good. I do want. A themeable ROM though as this Iconia is my new fav toy!

If you want a rom, suited to your needs, then download a base rom, and take the time to learn how it works.

Hit up the dev threads, and the mod and android chef threads.

Learn how to change it to what you want.

This is how you learn things. Learn how to de-compile, and manipulate xml.

Know what images are called in particular situations.

You said in your OP, you wanted to know how to change things, to make it sexy.

The above is a start.

[Acer Iconia A500] Deltabear:
MD is right, I'm a big fan of Honeylicious, but plan to start doing a little cooking myself soon since KYJ isn't on anymore to do more w/ Honey or Faux...

Most important, back up your pad before you do ANYTHING and Have FUN!

Good Luck!

[Acer Iconia A500] internetpilot:
I was running KJY's ROMs, but then when he stepped away for a while during the holidays, I suspected what could happen next (and it did -- he permanently left). So after that, I went back with ezterry's 3.2.1 "stock-ish" ROM, removed a few more things I didn't want, and then used ADW Launcher EX to pretty things up. I've been using ADW EX on my A500 since almost day one of ownership. There are TONS of ADW themes out there, and there are plenty of other customizations you can do in ADW EX that will make it look night and day different than the stock HC launcher.

What Recovery are you using... Are you doing all the proper wipe via Recovery menus. Also use the Tegowner site to get ROM, don't trust any other source...
[Acer Iconia A500] SugarCoatedAngel:
I'm using cwm recovery. I did all the wipes. I'll try it all again. Yes I did download it from Tegraowner site... I couldn't find any other site that had it...lol
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
You might want to try to download it again.. CHECK THE MD5 SUMS.. before moving it to the tablet..

Push the file to tablet on to sd card . then check md5 sums with android app. .

if they are correct and it still does not flash try formatting the sd card in a android phone.. then put the rom onto sd card.. this often will solve flashing roms when everything else is right..

lots of luck.. by the way i am on a near STOCK Rooted 3.2.1 . i think it cames from MD above with my ui changes apps and apps i do not like removed...

M D is mean to me Boohooooo.....
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Thanks, yeah I'm re-downloading it now. Never thought to check the MD5 #. Never had to check that stuff before, but this is my first tablet, so I;m a little new to the tablet flashing arena. I do have a rooted EVO 3D
[Acer Iconia A500] :
ok, i got thors Rom on. Looks like my first dl was bad. Checking it out now.

Edit: anyone suggest a good theme for Thor Rom 14.2?
[Acer Iconia A500] Json_81:
Just a warning about Thor´s rom.

For me and a few other´s it completely freezes when downloading torrents.

Both ICS and 14.2.

Other than that they are pretty solid.

+1 for Epiphany. I got my tablet Monday. Installed Epiphany as my first ROM yesterday. I like it. Everything works except 5gHz wireless but that didn't work with the official ROM either.

Can't beat thors 14.2 third rom I've installed and it by far benchmarks the highest, which doesn't mean much on it's own, but it also "feels" the most fluid and lag free. Also my battery life nearly doubled even after overclocking it with thors built in overclock menu.

[Acer Iconia A500] dincdoes.me:
Thors ics is great but its not complete\little buggy if you want the closest thing to ics *speedwise* I use.

Thors Rom v14.2 Honeycomb 3.2.1 Asus based rom

Update to his newest kernel 3.9r4 this kernel is amazing if you have ever used ics you know it is fast! This kernel makes his rom the fastest freaking rom I've ever seen.

Just try it alot of people don't like Thor nor his kernel so its purley on what you wanna do m8

Have fun!
[Acer Iconia A500] ibawanzingee:
Hello friends,

I just went thru this whole ordeal. I reinstalled my 3.2 backup, but it wasn't rooted. That's when I realized root is written to the device and not the rom. I didn't know this. Anyway, after going thru hours of doing this all again and installing my virgin backup with nothing but root access (oh brother, what a pain) I realized something:

Theoretically, if something went wrong, and I had to reinstall my unrooted backup, and since you can't root 3.2, couldn't I just go into recovery (since I would already have that from gaining original root access) and install the rooted 3.2 update over 3.2 non-rooted and it would be rooted all over again? I haven't tried it, but I think that would work, wouldn't it?

Thanks!

Also, I know about Titanium backup, but I don't like it b/c it's left me with corrupted backups and missing data time and time again.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Simple answer - no. I see you sent me a PM, so I'll explain there ;)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rtg222:
I did a search and could not readily find the answer......

Is Gapps.zip also required with DJ ICS+ V1.0.3 also?

I root and upgraded my Sam Tab 10.1. It required Gapps.zip. Also it also auto downloaded all of the apps from my Marketplace library. On the Skyrocket each apps has to be re-downloaded. Would installing Gapps.zip, if even possible on the Skyrocket, add any missing baseline apps and do the auto download of the library?

TIA,

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rtg222:
So been using DJ ICS+ V1.0.3 for a while now. The aesthetics are excellent and it appears to be very stable. So I have to say the folks that worked on this did a really good job. However, benchmarking this load shows about a 20% decrease in performance compared to a stock 2.3.5, even when clocked at 1.7Ghz versus the stock 1.5Ghz.

I could be doing something error but the load works very well. Perhaps FauxClock is not working correctly.

The numbers from AnTuTu are:

Stock 2.3.5 - 6053

DJ ICS+ V1.0.3(2.3.6) - 4834

This is apparently not a full ICS build which is fine it has a good look and feel but it is at the expense of some performance.

So before the flames start, I am not complaining. Just merely pointing out some fact for anyone looking to some this or the new to be updates load(rom).

I would have posted this in the development forum but still don't have 10 posts.....

FWIW,

Rob
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] D.O.C:
Your thread would have been deleted if your question had been posted at the development forums. That is why we have Q&A forums. This is the right place to ask you questions.

Please familiarize yourself with the XDA Forum Rules.

Good you didn't have 10 posts to make your question there yet, didn't you ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rtg222:
Ok, being part of several forums that rule is certainly not intuitive.

So since this is the correct forum post how about a response?

Seems like the folks creating the ROM would be interested in the feedback and be best to provide some insight. Don't seem to be getting it here.....

Or did I miss the response?

Also, I read the rules and I did not see anything that would suggest that this post in the Developers Forums would have been removed. Do the rules change as the moderators deem fit???????
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Pirateghost:
it has nothing to do with the ROM. it is a Touchwiz based rom and thus you will have the exact same issues as any other touchwiz based rom when it comes to your apps....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] eagercrow:
I was thinking of installing the gapps for the same reason. Not so much the apps for me, but on my AOSP phones/roms google saved all my wifi passwords that alone is worth checking out because I have a lot that are a pain in the ass to enter on a phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Pirateghost:
but GAPPS are the same versions of the apps that are already included in the rom...

this is a TOUCHWIZ issue, until you remove Samsungs crap UI, it will remain an issue

installing GAPPS from CM will yield no benefit..... :rolleyes:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
Just flashed cwm touch for T-Mobile. Looks pretty nice. Its available in from rom manager or if you dont wanna pay for it do this

Download the recovery image from here http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager (tmobile Galaxy S2)

Rename it to recovery.img and place it on your sdcard(internal) so it should be at /sdcard/recovery.img

plug phone into computer and get into adb shell from terminal (must have adb working)

then type this: dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22

IF you dont have adb working on your computer you can download terminal emulator from android market and do it from your phone. Same instructions as above.

place recovery.img on sdcard(/sdcard/recovery.img)

open terminal emulator and type: su (allow superuser access if it ask you)

then type: dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22

make sure usb debugging is checked also.
