Also, which ATT apps are safe to remove without screwing up phone functionality?

Went ahead and tried. It isn't working It just tells me to attach device with ADB Debugging on. I already have USB Debugging on.

Hey guys! I'm having some storage problems with my Pantech Burst. Just can't seem to keep the Internal Storage short no matter what! I can barely update any of my apps now because I get that error. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I can't seem to use Link2SD because no one will tell me what's wrong when I try using it. I would like to somehow merge Internal and Media storage together if I could. Pretty stupid they even did that.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nightfire37:
They are completely virus free. If I was you, run the pantech burst update software. http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Pantech_Burst The link is provided in the wiki.

That error is sometimes an ICS bug. Move some of your apps to your internal SD card by tapping settings>Apps>internal media storage then go through and tap the apps you want to move then tap move to media storage. That will not move to your external SD card but to your internal sd card. You really dont need an app to move all of your things to your sd card. if you want to move apps to your external sd card, theres an app for that. One of my friends uses it on his LG Motion 4G because the internal sd is too small for what he uses it for and bought a 32 GB SD card to move his apps to it. I will get the name of the app tomorrow.

Alright guys I received this little phone and here is my super short preview (I will do in depth video later):

Before you read any further I want you to know that I have owned the following android phones: Samsung Vibrant, Motorola Atrix 4G, Motorola Atrix 2, HTC Vivid.

Here is some highlights of the burst:

+ It is cheap! I got one 200$ brand new of ebay. There are tons of deals at around 250$.

+ The screen is identical to the one on Samsung Galaxy S series, turns out I missed my Vibrant's screen so much. I personally prefer WVGA SuperAMOLED with pentile versus normal 4.3 with 960x540. So the screen is gorgeous.

+ The phone is compact and light, resembles SGS.

+ The skin is actually very light, feels like slightly tweaked stock Gingerbread. Miles ahead of TouchWiz, Sense and Blur.

+++ The speed is simply amazing, this little dual core monster freakes me out with its smoothness and overall snappiness. It is leagues faster than Atrix 2 with its bloatware, I guess I should not mention the crappy Vivid which is crippled by the bloatware. The scrolling is significantly smoother than on any phone I have used from the list. I will make video and show you what exactly I mean by smooth.

The CPU is running at 1512Mhz

- Camera is average stills are OK but video is not that good. No touch to focus and no continuous autofocus in video. The only focus is in photo mode and when you press the shutter. Who knows maybe there will be some improvements with ICS update which is confirmed by AT&T.

- No gyro... very sad but true.

+++ Awesome audio quality on the other hand , very low background noise, same level as iPhone 4. Did AB comparison with iPhone 4 and Pantech is not worst ! By the way , I did the comparison with Ultimate Ears Triple.Fi vi 10. Need more testing for the other aspects of the SQ. For me background noise is one of major signs of good audio system on the phone. The hiss on Motorolas and on Vivid was noticeably higher.

------------------ The phone has carrier IQ. Another reason to root it.

Alright thats it for today ,more is coming up!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yadspi:
This! Almost my exact thoughts!! About Gyro, I haven't notice the absence of it, what app can I use to test it? The only con is the camera quality I think, it looks like a mix of the Nexus S with the Vibrant. The little f***er is blazing fast indeed! I just can't imagine it with ICS or CM.

-You forgot to add that it can play out of the box, avi, mkv, mp4. I tested up to 720p

I don't wanna sound like a noob, but I came across this on a Pantech Crossover forum for rooting, and it seemed go generic that it might work for the burst.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1275540&page=3

1. Download & install File Expert from the android market.

2. Go 2 settings, then applications & Enable unknown sources & usb debugging.

3. Download & install Terminal Emulator from the android market.

4. Download & install Gingerbreak.apk using Google.

5. Pun Gingerbreak on the microSD card & install it using File Expert.

6. Open Gingerbreak & click "Root Device"

The phone will restart & is now rooted

Open up the Terminal Emulator, type "su" & hit enter. Choose the allow option to get Superuser Permissions

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

There's also another way too such as the Universal SuperOneClick.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

1. install Android sdk and update.

2. enable usb debuging on your phone.

3. Download and install the pc suite to get the adb driver for the crossover. (in this case the Burst)

http://www.pantechusa.com/support

4. download and extract superoneclick http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

5. make sure that adb can see your device. From a command prompt change directory to the place that you installed the android sdk android-sdk\platform-tools and run "adb devices" you should see your device connected.

6. run superoneclick.exe make sure that you select GingerBreak from the exploit menu

Waiting for root too!

After a Commtiva z71 variant, I was ready for something faster, and picked up a Pantech Burst for $160 on ebay. Can't wait for it to come!

Unfortunately, I just assumed it was easily rootable....duh. Those of you who know how to do such things, keep us noobs posted! I'll be eager to try rooting methods and roms. This is an amazing phone--it seems--and I'll be up a creek without a paddle if I can't root it!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] divine1250:
I honestly feel that we don't have a custom rom yet because our phone is a PANTECH. Also, most devs are flocking to newer,more "popular" devices with the new S4 quad core processor.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] divine1250:
I'm not giving up though. I love this phone enough to learn what I need to know by reading and sharing ideas and knowledge with anyone else on this thread who feels the same.:cool:

Hey divine any progress ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] katamari201:
Realistically how long do you think it will take pantech (and AT&T) to release the ICS update? I really just want the wifi signal on my burst to be fixed. How would I update the rom officially even if there is a minor update that only fixes bugs released? I've tried the AT&T phone update in settings, and it says I have the latest one after several connection problems, but I am not sure how accurate it is. It all becomes more difficult since I am using an unlocked burst on T-mobile and don't know if the phone update will behave the same as a regular AT&T networked one. What is the latest firmware anyway?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] divine1250:
Just finished downloading the Pantech Open Source file for P9070 and it is just a kernal .tar file along with text file telling "How to build". Thought it would be a full rom image. Oh well, this is still good knowledge.

Is it OK for me to share the files? Don't wanna break any rules.;)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] block911:
Sorry fellas tossed my phone on ebay, the screen is horrible in the sun even at full brightness and the buggy buttons are to much and I'm shocked the incremental update from ATT didn't fix this and the battery life is horrible

Keep on trying guys as its always fun to learn but if the bootloader is locked being open source won't mean anything as you need the keys to generate a signed ROM. Without it one won't load and to this day nobody has figured out how to break this even on the motorola phones hence the lack of any custom roms, except for stock/rooted roms

@divine1250

Are you working on CM9 or CM7 for the Burst? I know everyone seems to want to work on CM9 and I understand why. But it seems like it would be easier building and getting CM7 to boot than it would be for CM9. Which ever you are doing, good luck in your work. Really would like to see any custom ROM for this.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] divine1250:
I was looking into both CM9 and CM7. I agree that CM7 would be best to focus on at this point. I have a machine running Ubuntu 11.04 and I have been going through trial and error with cm9 and cm7. This is my first time attempting to build a custom rom but I am very familiar with the android os inner workings. I just need assistance.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] divine1250:
To those who have technical difficulties with this device, Its because you have a defected model. I have exchanged my Burst 3 times until I finally got one with zero issues. No more horrible battery drainage and no more unresponsive soft keys:D

Didn't u sell ur Burst? Keep those comments for Burst owners. We have the phone (personally very happy with it) and this forum is to share info and resources about it, not for ur useless comments.

This thread should also serve as a warning that it takes 3 returns before finding a phone that doesn't have a defective keys. No go back and crawl in your dark hole waiting for a Custom ROM for a phone no developer wants to touch (probably because his phone is defective too). :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevotdo:
My Burst works perfectly fine. First one I bought. As for no devs wanting to work on it, devs started out not being devs, they had to learn. There are several of us in this thread willing to develope for the phone but the ones with the answers to the locked bootloader are keeping their mouths shut. They either want to be the only ones to bring custom roms our are to arrogant to share the knowledge necessary for others to learn.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedigras:
For those that have a burst, what mods did you do to it to help improve its usability?

1. root?

2. freeze / uninstall bloatware and unbranding?

3. ???

I know that we would like to have a clean custom ROM as well as ICS, but those aren't options right now. I'm sure some people are working on the issue as this phone is too good of a price / performance package out there to not be hacked. Until then, let me hear how you use your phone so when I get mine in the mail tomorrow I can enjoy it too.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PyroKirby:
I read about that, that it was some kind of error. Couldn't figure out how to fix it. I do try to move as many of the apps as I can to media storage. Even then I still only have 150mb of internal storage left. I'm not sure where it's all going. The only game I have now is Dragon Vale. I would like to just combine the two and make it into one, but I doubt that is possible. I would like to use the internal SD a lot more if I could but it gets no use sadly. I wanted to use Link2SD because it really came in handy when I had an Xperia Play. I just can't seem to get it to work right on this phone though.

But hey, thanks!

I haven't heard of that, but I will look into it. Thanks!

I had faced the same problem with Win7, though with external HDD. Turns out some of USB ports do not carry enough power for HDD to work properly, and hence be recognized.

Bottom-line: Try connecting your phone via other USB ports on your computer.

Not the case here because my other HDDs work in all three of my USB ports. Windows 8 just does not recognize the Burst at all. It's a lack of drivers issue.

I hope, following may help. Got this from some other forums: :laugh:

Turns out that the pantech usb drivers were the ones creating the problem. If uninstalling the pantech usb drivers only wont solve the problem, do this method.

1. Uninstall Pantech PC Suite & Pantech USB driver v1.1 from programs, restart.

2. Connect phone to computer. It will install drivers automatically.

3. Disconnect Phone. Install PC Suite. It will also install those pantech usb drivers.

4. In programs files, uninstall the pantech usb drivers.

5. connect phone. drivers will get installed automatically. You should be able to see pantech 9070 in devices.

6. Run pc suite and it will find the device properly now. you can connect to the phone as usual.

tested under adb devices and it recognizes the device too.

Remember though that the Burst and the Xperia Play have totally different hardware. One thing is that Link2SD isnt supported on the device. It can be a rare occasion that Google messes up with device compatibility. Funny thing is that on the Play Store, Real Racing 3 isnt compatible with our device yet I sideloaded it and it works. Google should remove the device compatibility thing or make it where we can install apps the arent compatible with our device and just give us a popup that say that this app might not be compatible with your device.
