Hi. Today I got my Desire S.

I rooted it using a tool called unlock root: http://www.unlockroot.com/

then I installed rom manager, and installed clockworkmod recovery.

Next I booted into recovery and wiped everything, but now no matter what rom im trying to install, it will just show the HTC boot screen when starting the phone, and nothing more happens.

Does anyone have a suggestion how to solve the problem?
[HTC Desire S] SimonTS:
'UnlockRoot'? Have a look at this website and you might consider better ways of rooting your phone, such as following the recommended procedures listed in many places on XDA

http://lifehacker.com/5873745/unlock-root-roots-nearly-250-android-devices-in-one-click

Also, how is this a 'Development' question? This should be in the 'General' or 'Q&A' forum can a mod please move it?
[HTC Desire S] spymare:
yeah I found out, I tried using htc's way of rooting it http://www.htcdev.com

but that's not possible now, because the bootloader have changed because of that unlock tool, and now htc dev won't accept it when trying to root it.

I guess i just broke my phone :(, and i can't unroot it, because that unlocktool require that i got usb debugging enabled, witch i can't in clockworkmod :S.

sorry for posting in the wrong section, please move it.

maybe it would be possible if I had a clockworkmod backup for desire S. If this works, I would be extremly glad, if someone could take a backup with clockworkmod, and upload it :)
[HTC Desire S] Floatshow:
...Is your phone S-OFF ?

Maybe it is a stupid question, but I doubt you can successfully install a custom ROM with a S-ON phone
[HTC Desire S] CoolButcher:
I guess your phone is still S-ON so you need to flash the boot.img from any rom.zip you want to use manually through fastboot.
[HTC Desire S] tonks22:
hey budd i feel your pain on this as i Myself is new to the desire s android side of things after coming from zte blade but there is an easier way for you to do thing which would be to first use the ruu that should be on android 2.1 which in turn would bring the bootloader down so its possible for revolutionary to do the rest for you after this you shouldnt have any problems should you need assistance i am more than happy to help

btw the link to the ruu for 2.1 is here http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...3.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed.exe after a update using this use revolutionary which can be found in the main thread of the desire s forum
[HTC Desire S] boris0228:
If you ''unlock'' your bootloader

when you flash rom.zip from recovery, the boot.img won't be flash in.

you have you take out the boot.img from your rom,and then flash it from fastboot.

when you enter the fastboot

type the following in adb

fastboot flash boot boot.img

now you can boot your phone :) hope you success
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 4123551:
Dont flash this! This one is meant for 'bravo' which is the normal desire!

Flash an ruu for SAGA. The Desire S!

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Memhis:
Hi all. I come from different forum, LG O2X.

In a day or two, my girlfriend will get an x10. I assume that latest stock rom will be on it. My questions are:

How good are stock things on this phone? Do you recommend some custom rom/kernel? Which one customs are the most stable&battery friendly? Bear in mind that she will not be doing this custom stuffs and I will not be able to update customs regularly, so stability (with battery) is important. But, if there is some good kernel who will give some juice, why not go for it... :).

Thank you all for advices.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milton.bain:
All answers are here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=955703

But my order of preference of kernel is ThJap, Doomkernel, others.

Rom preference is FeraLab, Thgo2, TEAM, Erick, Donut hd, Wolfbreak, others (i hate MIUI)!

YES DEFINITELY CUSTOM STUFFS ARE WAY BETTER THAN STOCK

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Memhis:
Thanks for reply. As I stated, I will not have device long in my hands to test few of customs, so was hoping to hear recommendations.

I will try to put on FeraLab and Doomkernel then. Or is it enough to use only custom kernel (Doom`s in this case) and stock rom? (in case of my O2X device I am quite happy with stock rom+custom kernel) Main problem is that I will not have device long enough to test various combination.

More suggestions and advices are always welcomed :).
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyreimer:
Thgo2 v14 with his kernel. Just flashed it a few hours ago but it seems to be working great.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THeLogiC:
Feralab v4 with doomkernel v06 working great.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milton.bain:
Stock rom may be good. But its not the best in case of x10.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Ive just started "altering" my phone,and I'll tell you a few things.......

try to get all the files before you start as a lot of the links are dead

bookmark all the guides youll need for quick reference

start off doing the stuff in a logical order,as youll need to keep going back again

back up your stuff beforehand

make 10 posts on here,so you can then post in the developers thread:if you have problems

Galaxy rom-seems the best one Ive tried,but hate that swype keyboard.Once it was set up I couldnt make any calls-the contact was greyed out.

Thgov14 rom-this looked very good,but battery drain was horrendous,estimate dead after 15 hrs on standby only.

So the upshot is that youll need a fair bit of time,as Ive had to use SEPCC about 5 times,backup and restore several times,hunt for info since no-one helped me.

I personally wouldnt bother pal!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] championswimmer:
tbh... keep it stock... or use wolfbreak as that is tweaked stock

enjoy stock...there are lots of cool features on stock.

if you wait a week, you'll get achotjan rom which is stock running on cm7 sources. (much like a sexy lexus running on a tough German engine)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HR7:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Andreas527:
Finally. Really hope that this will be a good browser that can take advantage of the hardware.

Was a little disappointed in how Primes browser speed and stability was with the stock browser.

Here the apk for us that don't live in the "right" country for the beta.

http://www.mediafire.com/?3xaxwd2xrn0rkgr
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hollywould:
It is a Beta, so it's pretty unstable, from what I've seen so far. Also, there is no way that I can see to change to use agent to Desktop, which is pretty annoying.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jerrygooch:
Yeah, I wish there was a way to access the desktop version of pages. Either way I have been waiting for this since I switched to android. Yes its beta but I can't wait to see where Google takes this. Sucks I can't get it on my Skyrocket where mobile view would be better suited.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tush:
Ok, I installed it and here are my first impressions:

Good

- Bookmarks and stuff are synced at first-run

- URL bar is QUICK at giving search results and URL results.

- Switching tabs is instantaneous

- When there's lots of links close together and you try and touch one, it'll pop-up a zoomed window so you can accurately tap the right link. Cool! (tried it on news.bbc.co.uk)

Bad

- Pages don't load super quick and panning while loading is jittery

-- Once they're loaded is pleasurably smooth.

---Sometimes when panning heavier pages (like engadget.com) it will take a couple seconds to load tiles, so you'll have white parts of page.

- No way to set User Agent (at least not from my few minutes of poking around)

- Can't play flash videos (tried on news.bbc.co.uk)

That's what I got so far. Gotta get back to work!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yumms:
Someone try about:debug in the address bar and see if any additional options show up, just like in the stock browser.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tush:
I tried it, it keeps rerouting me to chrome://debug/, and then saying "this webpage is not available.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dandmcd:
Won't use as default until someone discovers how to change the User agent, which I'm sure won't take long. Maybe Chrome Browser + will be released by the guy who made the ICS + browser? However, I love the tab interface, and it has been running very smooth for me thus far. It is indeed faster than the stock browser. At first scrolling can bug and make everything on the screen disappear, but eventually it scrolls very smoothly and fast. is silky smooth and hasn't been jittery or freezing for me yet, and omnibar is fast to populate.

Definitely a huge improvement! Love it!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rdubz:
Veddy Nice

Installed immediately. Was coming here to post about it, and 9 replied already. I love this community!

Agreed with everyone so far, it doesn't do Desktop for user agent, which is a PITA, but it should be figured out soon. Another CON I noticed is that I can't login to facebook for some reason.

I hate android's facebook app on the prime. It sucks. But when I enter my password, the page resets while entering a capital B. Shift B on the hardware keyboard seems to be refreshing the page, even in the password field. I can enter a capital "L", but my password doesn't contain any Ls :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] reNeglect:
Heres a picture of the iPhone 4s browsermark score on iOS 5 and some other devices.

GNex ICS Stock Browser.

Now GNex on ICS with Chrome.

Asus TFP ICS Stock Browser.

Asus TFP ICS Chrome Browser.

We can see that on tegra 3 there isnt much of a improvement according to the benchmark. But on the GNex there were HUGE improvements.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cyberguest:
I don't see any option to install Extensions??? "Sorry, your operating system is not supported just yet".

and no Flash
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bobbyball:
By far the most promising browser. I have tried just about all of them and they all have their good points. I know we have the user agent options in most browsers but to be honest i'd just like a desktop browser on the prime and forget about the mobile sites.

I use chrome all the time so if we can have chrome on android that's definitely the way I will go.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spidey01:
Not going to happen unless the Chrome for Android code is rolled into Chromium, plus it may not be legal to use that name.

Now Chromium++ For Android, maaaybe !
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Magnesus:
The code will be added to Chromium. Google already said that. So we might see some great browsers soon!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
Until they make the same pop out side controller the stock browser has - Quick Controls - I will not use.

No Flash support, but I don't care 1 bit about that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mibo666:
Chrome is not open source project. No1 will make version "+" of Chrome browser. Maybe in future google will release menu with browser agents.

No flash support - adobe said that will not release flash for chrome. Rest of browsers will be supported by adobe. http://www.androidcentral.com/new-browser-chrome-doesnt-support-dying-plug-flash

JAVA support !!:)

Imba bookmarks sync.

Fast but when will load full page.

Gmail, maps and others woorks good in browser.

No lag text input.

U can move position tabs by drag and drop like in PC chrome.

Not smooth like stock ICS browser.

Pages are to bigggg and is not possible to change it...looks like 800x600 resolution on PC with 20" .

User agent

I found this page in Chrome: chrome://chrome-urls/

I tried all options, but found no user agent config. Maybe someone else can figure this out?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vgjfelix:
Just done a first impressions video on this. Ultra fast browser but obviously needs work on it as useless for tablets.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBHGpfzXr2M

P.S. how do you embed videos? The youtube video button doesn't seem to work.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chpimentelpr:
Me too, is great but User Agent is a must, hate to see webpage in mobile format.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] johnnyutah22:
I can't seem how to do the following:

1. set the homepage

2. create a home shortcut on the toolbar

3. create a bookmarks or favorites tab anywhere on the screen

Without these features and the loss of flash I feel like this is a downgrade from ICS+ browser. I know it's a beta and I love chrome on my other computers but these features should be stock for a chrome browser.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] david279:
Can someone post the latest version on chrome? The apk. or a link to it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
Chrome's latest update added a few key features--namely the "Request Desktop site..." option from the ICS browser--that have really enhanced functionality and allow me to use it as my daily driver.

However, Chrome doesn't support flash and I think it's been said it never will. In that case, this application serves as tremendously useful, both in Chrome and just in general. It's called Flashify and it adds an option to the "Share" menu that will let you open whatever current website you have open with a different browser.

A.k.a., if you stumble upon a website that needs flash while using Chrome you no longer have to copy the URL, open a different browser, and paste the URL into the address bar. Really quickens things up.

How can I do it.
[General Questions and Answers] DaBeastbe:
I personally think it wont be just install and go. First of all you need a ARM CPU (i was unable to find what CPU your tablet has). Then it would be a matter to get your functions working. It can be possible, but its only recommended for advanced users.

Okay so I recently found out that an app that I downloaded generates the verification code within my phone and sends it to the apps server before the server sends it back via text. I found a tutorial about the app, but it was on an iphone and was showing the http backend server request and apparently it works on androids too.

My question is how would I intercept the request before it is sent and find out what the verification code is? The idea behind it is to spoof a number and verify it on your phone to work. I wanted to see if it would work. I can post the website I read the tutorial on if wanted.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

You could use a packet sniffer inside your android, like

this one: hxxp://droidhacks.com/tag/wireshark/

Or you could force the packets to be routed through your computer,

This could be made with

An ad-hoc connection between a PC and your Droid. A bridge or nat service in your PC to connect the device to internet.

Install a proxy in your PC, then make the phone connect through it.

Share your PC internet through Bluetooth, Use this to connect the phone.
