I am having something close to that issue. i have Hboot 1.49.0008 it is Unlocked but with s-On

now i can boot farther then the htc white. mine goes to the htc + quietly brilliant screen. then hits a boot loop.

what are my options and how do i do it?

thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] Nokiawithandroid:
ok...then what can I do to fetch the data out or save my phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] megabiteg:
based on what has been said in the thread, you can flash a new system.img and that should give you access to the phone even if it starts FC like hell, all you need to do from there is to connect via adb backup the SMS database and continue with wiping everything and installing a new ROM (after you unlock of course)

just in case: once you get the system.img you need, apply it by typing

fastboot flash system [x:\path to file\]system.img

That should help you out.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nokiawithandroid:
How can i flash the system.img? My phone isn't rooted or unlocked. It's totally original. Also, no way to get the debug or adb. The only connection I've got is the "fastboot usb" at the htc original bootloader.

Hopeless, right?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
You posted this same question in a separate thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1525176

In an effort to keep the threads organized, I answered in that thread as follows:

Not sure how many times this can be repeated or how many different ways the same thing can be repeated. Without unlocking the device, HTC will not allow you to selectively modify any of the partitions from the bootloader or fastboot.

With these three conditions:

1) Without unlocking the device

2) Having the device freeze on the HTC splash screen

3) Never having previously loaded a custom recovery

The only option HTC provides is to run the RUU which will return the device to 100% stock erasing all information currently on the device.

If you're able to unlock the device (condition #1), you would be able to either flash a custom recovery (condition #3), or a stock/new system.img which would allow you access to the device where you can retrieving the stored SMS and MMS.

Using the stock RUU should resolve condition #2, if it didn't, there could be a more serious hardware issue with the device.

I might have missed some aspect. I'm sure somebody will post up if I did.

Hope that helps make more sense!

Hi,

I have a Motorola Xoom 3g, not rooted, bought from Telstra. It is currently Android 3.2

I have purchased and installed ADW Launcher EX and went for the Hub set up.

Unfortunately, all of a sudden today, when I do a reboot of the Xoom, it loses all the widgets, even if I replace them, as soon as I reboot it will come up with "Problem loading widget".

Does anyone know how to fix this?

[Kindle Fire General] geekoo:
Ok, I don't know how to such for such a thread, and from what I searched, I couldn't find any. The question that I have is this.

My Kindle Fire is an Amazon Kindle Device. It is supposed to behave like any other Kindle device in being able to download books through Whispernet and such.

Should I root and install a custom rom, I will still be able to read Kindle books, by installing the Kindle app, but then what do I lose in the form of the 'Kindle' experience?

Will there be any content or features that I will lose out by modding the device? The device will behave like any other smartphone, but what Kindle features will I be losing out on?

Inputs much appreciated? Thanks.

At least for on the Modaco rom you can get an app called "ota rootkeeper" that gives you temporary unroot with the tap of a button, then you can use Amazon video, then just tap it again and it's back to rooted.

I suppose kindle is equal book reading experience, and I enjoy my rooted kindle fire, no change as far as book reading is concerned, other features are just bonus
[Kindle Fire General] fiddlefaddle:
If you install a custom ROM then you will not be able to use amazon instant streaming or kindle owners lending library. If you only root it then if you want to watch amazon video you should follow above instructions on temporarily unrooting.

So we've heard about it, CM7 and ICS is going to be ported. I've talked to the author, fonehackezhs, he will do the CM7 first and then ICS, coz as we all know, ICS is hard to port coz of limitations of hardwares.

We always hear CyanogenMod. What is it?

Its a custom FIRMWARE/ROM which gives a device a set of benefits that surpasses a stock ROM provided by the carriers.

*Over Clocking

*Customizations, as ADW for its stock launcher

*Mods for other parts such as StatusBars and others.

*tether usb (as sgy had for a stock preset)

*backing up to sdcard :D like CWM ofcourse :D

*and many others, Check its full features@

until then let's wait for its coming to our grounds.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] velocity92c:
For a long time I used the newsreader NewsRoom but it's not updated for ICS and doesn't appear that it's going to be. I guess this is a general question about RSS, how come some articles don't download fully? ESPN is a good example. Regardless of what newsreader I use, it only download the article title and the first paragraph. Joystiq is the same way but it at least gives you the option to click to continue reading after the first paragraph, which sends you to the website. How can I get a newsreader to download full articles from every site? The point of a newsreader is to avoid having to go to the websites. Any help?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
That's determined by the site/person offering the RSS feed. They choose where to truncate the feed at (most do the first paragraph or few sentences). They do this to get better click-through traffic to the site for ad impressions. They don't get money from you reading RSS.
[Acer Iconia A500] Edenprime:
2 months ago I've bought (by my friend from CA) Iconia A501 from frys.com. It cost me +/- $500. I was really surprised that it had a simlock for such amount of money. So my question is: Is there any chance that any of You AT&T users can do me a favour and ask in any AT&T place/shop/stand how can I take the simlock down to unlock the tab? I tried via AT&T website but to ask a question I need to be an AT&T user, cause when going through this all "contact us" stuff in the end it asks to register my account, but I can't since it doesn't work for me (I need some wireless number which I don't have) :/ I've got their simcard (it was inside the tab), but I don't use it in Poland. Any help would be appreciated.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Try This

Here is the text from a user who managed to get his tab unlocked through Acer.

From: http://www.amazon.com/Acer-A501-10S16u-10-1-Inch-Aluminum-Metallic/dp/B004UR160C

Make sure you include your serial number and IMEI code in every mail. Maybe, you will get lucky like that person did. Hope it helps you.
[Acer Iconia A500] F2504x4:
Or buy "pay as you go" plan and then request a un-lock code...;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
No, the issue, is ATT. They want you to get locked into a data plan, and unfortunately, ATT is only in the US. This does nothing for people outside the US.

But, the fact, is that all the re-sellers in the States, were telling people, you didn't have to get a data plan, and that the tab was "sim unlocked".

And some buyers, just didn't know exactly what they were buying, as the minimum wage floor clerks, didn't know any better.

So now, they have these tabs, worldwide, and users can't get them unlocked, although ATT and Acer can do so.

A fine mess ATT and Acer created.

I would say, be very persistent, and if you press the issue, they will eventually give you the unlock code.
[Acer Iconia A500] Edenprime:
YET AGAIN, You helped me Moscow. I just wrote really reaaallyyy nice, pinkish with some smiling sun - email. Blue skye, clouds, happy faces. Hope it helps.

"Thank you for contacting Acer America. My name is Ranju, badge number GWSI821. I would be happy to assist you.

As per our records your tablet is covered under standard limited warranty.

After reviewing your email, I understand that you would like to obtain unlock code for the tablet.

Please be informed that the A501 was designed to work with a specific carrier (in US or Canada). We do not provide unlock codes for the A501 at this time to work with any carrier. In the United States AT&T is currently the only carrier available for the A501. In Canada Rogers Network is the currently the only carrier available for the A501.

For further clarifications please feel free to visit our web site http://support.acer.com

Thank you for contacting Acer.

Have a great day!

Respectfully,

Acer America"

Too bad that on acer.com nor frys.com is written that the tab is locked for AT&T.

[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, like the one guy did, as he received a similar response, escalate it to a manager. You only contacted the lower level people, and that response is typical.

Keep pushing the matter up the ladder ;)

Be sure to keep your cool, and be nice and political ;) Eventually you will win.

Make sure you tell them you live in Poland, and have no ATT network. and always supply your serial number and IMEI number with every mail.

Point out the fact that nowhere was it written that the tab is locked to ATT.

"Thank you for contacting Acer America. We have forwarded your request to AT&T. Someone from AT&T should email you soon with an unlock code. Please allow 5-6 business days. I hope this is helpful."

so HOPEFULLY after those days I will recieve the long awaited unlock code.
[Acer Iconia A500] Silverblade.nz:
This doesn't have anything to do with unlocking, but as a side note:

I bought my A501 here in New Zealand and the version they sell here is not sim locked, I can use any carrier that I like. As far as I know the Australian version is probably the same.

[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Dude, I really Really hope they come through on this. Too many people bought these things (ATT version) not knowing they were locked to the network.

Fingers are crossed. :D

---------- Post added at 12:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:00 AM ----------

Yeah, all the international models are unlocked. The issue, was that Acer developed specific models of the 501, that were locked to the ATT network in the States. Also, at the same time, Retailers in the States were selling the unlocked version.

The problem, was that many retailers were selling the "locked" version, without telling the buyers. Hey, the locked versions were cheaper than the unlocked versions, and if you didn;t know the difference, you would buy the cheaper one. And I think also, the retailers, didn;t know also (or they just wanted to make a sale).

Acer, and ATT, can check the originating IP of a person, and verify if indeed they live in a particular country. I can verify Edelprime lives in Poland, but hey, who am I but just a lowley "fry cook".
[Acer Iconia A500] ordio:
Hey there.

I can give you a perspective from a Canadian a501 user.

I am on Bell mobility (similar as at&t I think)

I had bought this used and knew it was locked. I was more in it for the 4g than the space on the one I got on boxing day (64gb wifi for 400).

Anyway after searching for any info on unlocking I got the same info from rogers. Cannot unlock and the tab is still under contract. Meh fine. So I bought an a501 that hasn't been fully paid to rogers and its still locked.

Unhappy with this I contacted the seller. The (insert explicit word here) said no then proceeded to ignore my calls.

So I thought fine. Guess I'm stuck with a 16gb a501 that I cannot use via 4g.

That same day I saw that there was an ebayer (in Montreal) who could provide (sell) me an unlock code. After a day and talking to a bud who is on rogers he had an uncle who would have loved this tab. However I wanted to try and unlock this first from the eBay guy.

Needless to say it is now unlocked.

My suggestion would be to see if someone on eBay can sell you a code (maybe the same guy, not sure). Cost me 25 to the code.

The time I had already spent trying to unlock in the first place compared to spending that 25... lets say that its worth it.

He emailed me the code a day and a half later (took time to generate the damn code).

Good luck and hope you can get it unlocked!

Hello!

First that nothing desire to clarify that I am speaking Hispanic, so the texts here are with the help of BabelFish.

A week ago I purchased an Acer Iconia A501, 4 G, but locked to AT & T.

I was already in contact with Acer, but they tell me that they are the guarantee of 90 days, etc.

After continue reading I see that I have to request assistance to a supervisor or higher level.

So that will do, and will see as follows the topic.

I see that "Edenprime" says "(Sent_from_my_A501_using_Alexandra_III_:)" I wonder if you have changed the Rom being blocked by AT & T, or if it was after you receive your unlock code.

Another query, the e-mail communication with Acer may be these:

paypal@acer.com

ebay@Acer.com

From already thank you very much.
