I really wouldn't really be too surprised if we did see Android Jelly Bean in the Summer, but more towards the end, say July or August time. There are already rumours of an Android 4.1 floating around as well.

Not sure about the whole booting into Chrome OS thing, that'd be like Google shooting down a whole market it's looking to tackle Ultrabooks with. Why buy an Android tablet AND have a Chrome book when you can have both. Though I doubt people would buy both anyway ha ha. Although, an Asus Transformer that docked to Chrome OS would be cool.

Perhaps we'll see this released alongside the fabled "Nexus Tablet" said to be coming, which I would absolutely love to see.

Cheers for sharing :)
[Nexus S General] blackhemi4x4:
Is Google going to forget me. My 9020a would love an official ICS. It would be neat to see some 5.0 out there though.
[Nexus S General] PatchouliNim:
Wow... amazing!! but...I think rumor is just rumor ;)

And all of sudden, I want Jelly Bean' UI is violet!! :)
[Nexus S General] Evo_Shift:
Goggle shouldn't release it until 2013 in my opinion.
[Nexus S General] giannis_mathiou:
I think that to roll out a big update in less than a year is bad for android. The time that Google started to have one OS on all devices (mobiles and tablets) with ICS will probably lose this if the android 5.0 Jelly Beam role out so fast.
[Nexus S General] bozzykid:
This summer sounds about right. Based on them taking about 6 months after releasing ICS to get it to the Nexus devices and probably another 6 months before other manufacturers start using it. That means if they announce JB this summer, towards the end of 2013 is when you will really see devices for it.
[Nexus S General] nik0r0:
Fake. Hopefully
[Nexus S General] bozzykid:
It makes sense that they will announce it this summer. When it actually ships, who knows. But they usually announce it months before release to give developers time to work with the api.
[Nexus S General] BrianDigital:
What if it's half true, 4.1 that's sound more like it
[HTC Sensation] Imperatorpg:
Is it possible to check was it brended before I did root,Super CID and debrending procedure and which operator / theritory
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Sorry, not certain what you're asking here.

Is the phone currently Stock ?

Or has it been S-OFF'd, rooted, etc. and you want to get it back to have the Stock operator ROM ?

If you download "CID getter" from the market you can check a few things out. Mine for example through the app is:

Note: mine is S-OFF, FW 1.27.1100, SuperCID

[ro.aa.maincid]: [HTC__001]

[ro.carrier]: [VODA-UK]

[ro.cid]: [VODAP01] ------------------Original CID (not certain why it gives a different result to "adb getvar CID" which is "11111111").

If you run this app does it give the info you need ? Or are you after something else ?
[HTC Sensation] Imperatorpg:
I rooted my phone and made Super CID, I downloaded CID getter and result is HTC_032. I think for East Europe. So, what I must do to make it totaly stock because I want to return it on waranty. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
You need to find out what software version was originally on the phone. This is why it's important to make a note of it before you go flashing new ROMs as if there's no RUU you're screwed
[HTC Sensation] Imperatorpg:
I made backup before I rooted phone. So I restore it and install Hboot 1.17 but I know that was 1.18 before. Fw is 1.50.401.1, Android 2.3.4, HTC Sense 3.0, kernel 2.6.35.13., radio 10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
So is there still a problem if you restored your backup ?

If you scroll down the list what does it say for the examples I gave below?

[ro.aa.maincid]: [????????]

[ro.carrier]: [????????]

[ro.cid]: [????????]
[HTC Sensation] Imperatorpg:
I did it today and testing if problem is gone.
[HTC Sensation] Imperatorpg:
still have problem with droping calls :( :mad:
[HTC Desire S] mylostnick:
Hi all, guys!

First of all I want to say thanks to all who get this great forum updated with ROMs, guides and tutorials! I've read all of the most interesting threads and I'm ready to put my hands on my Desire S I'm waiting!

I need only a little advice. The Desire S I'm waiting is branded by my national operator. No SIM lock or other, only some personalizations.

I think I'll debrand it at light speed, flashing an official ROM and then proceed to unlock it / root it.

And here I need ur advice: do you think it's better to flash an old official ROM to unlock and S-OFF with Revolutionary, or to flash the latest and unlock with the HTC tool?! What are the benefits to have S-Off / Unlock VS S-On / Unlock?

Thank you in advance!
[HTC Desire S] eyahl:
If you unlock with HTCDev HTC may notice what you did to your phone. So there is a bigger chance of voiding your warranty.

Also if you s-off you will have much more possibilities for customizing your phone. And everything you do will be much more easy (flashing ROM, changing radio, kernel etc.)

So I would really recommend you not to use htcdev but to s-off your phone by yourself

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
+1

Ditto.

But if this is the first time you're doing all this, i suggest a few days worth of reading about RUUs, CID, Goldcard, Misc_version, etc, before you contemplate changing branded phone firmware. You may not need it, but knowing this stuff is like having a condom - It's better to have one and not need it, rather that need one and not have it! :D:D:D
[HTC Desire S] mylostnick:
Thank u for replies!!!

LOOOL, u're definitively right (about condoms first!!!) !!!

As I said in my post I've read hundreds of posts and tutorials about goldcard and debranding, warranty, S-OFF and many others stuff.

I've downloaded the possible and the unpossible about Desire S!!! And I haven't the phone yet!!! LOOOOOL
[HTC Desire S] nikolaaas:
Make sure you read the sticky thread in development section. It really helped me a lot when i started. As for roms to enjoy your mobile phone since its new i would suggest not to go to ics yet since some stuff are not functional. Go for 2.3.7 roms mostly. Welcome to Android side and hf.
[HTC Desire S] mylostnick:
Thank you nikolaaas.

I know ICS for Saga is not fully functional (yet?! ;D ;D) and a little buggy.

Hope developers may find better solutions when ICS will be official for Saga!

In my case I'd like first of all to debrand my phone and then try some custom ROM (I've read great things about MIUI or Runnymede based ROMS).

By the way I'm not really new in Android experience. As you can see in my signature, thank to great people, I use Android 2.3 in my reallllllly old Polaris since 2 years (with some problems, obviously, but nothing really bad!)! I think that these are the things that make great Android and this group of developers!!!!

Thanks!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zerozoneice:
Can anyone please share the APK?

All latest baked, oops cooked releases include the annoying version with online (Picasa) sync....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] incredulous:
The only way I know of getting it is from Pauls Modaco ROM but you'll need to buy premium to get access to the kitchen to build a ROM with it in.

I'm not prepared to break his rules and post it either, sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zerozoneice:
would the APK from an "old" 4.0.1/2 release do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mistm:
Did you try turning off the Google Pictures synchronization in settings? I dont know if it removes picasa sync, i am just guessing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zerozoneice:
yea i did, but then removed some google components and stupid thing sync-ed again by default...now i have to remove it completely or reinstall the APK and be fast enough to disable sync again...

pain in the a$$ though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simer03:
I would love to know this as well....I hate that it always shows pictures other than what's from the camera

sent from my Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MFire:
1.Clear data for both the Galery app and Google+app.

2.Disable picture sync in accounts and sync.

3.Once in Google+ hit disable instant upload.

Done :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3colby3:
I got rid of the "Scrapbook Photos" and "Profile Photos" albums by getting on my computer and logging into G+ and then I just deleted the picasa folder and the picasa feature/service/app altogether. I never used picasa anyway so that got rid of the empty "Scrapbook Photos" album in my gallery. Then I deleted my profile picture in G+ to get rid of the "Profile Photos" album. It took me a loooong time to finally get rid of those annoying albums in my gallery. I tried all kinds of stuff before I realized I could do it that way. After all was said and done, I just deleted my entire G+ account bc I never used it anyway...I barely use FB as it is. I'm very picky about having only what I want in my gallery...as well as on my phone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mi|enko:
Am I the only person that uses Picasa for my wallpapers? I hate clutter on the phone itself, so I just pick a wallpaper from one of my Picasa folders and I don't have to worry about all 1k+ taking up space on the device.

Do you know the muffin man?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3colby3:
lol...???...not familiar with muffin man....why do u ask?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Budniu:
Ok, now DreamForceTeam launched Windows Mobile 6.1 on Windows Phone 7 (HTC 7 Pro) and showed that on the movie (what is next ?):

[YOUTUBE]1FNls9Hi6TQ[/YOUTUBE]
[Windows Phone 7 General] downloaderintruder:
Now this shows how terrible windows mobile was. I would do this on my trophy, but seeing how putting a laggy os on a phone designed for wp7 is so pointless, I'd rather put windows phone (hopefully tango) on wm devices.
[Windows Phone 7 General] morpheuszg:
Yessss, with this we may have the chance of using FpseCE on WP7!
[Windows Phone 7 General] JamesAllen:
Agree

Very well said, couldn't agree more. The fact you can do something doesn't mean you should. I was a WM 6.5 fan but would NEVER go back to that after over a year with the constantly improving WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] erdal_comak:
good thanks
[Windows Phone 7 General] DavidinCT:
You know...the video shows pretty good performance over all on it. Yea, 6.1 was a dog but, There is still a hanful of apps I would use on it that there is no WP7 app for.

If this was downloadable, I would download it to try it. It would be nice to bring back some App memories...

Is this only on a custom rom ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] dkp1977:
That's sort of nostalgic. :) But like I'd never put Windows 95 on my current computers, I would also never go back to the Windows Mobile days. Sick of constant lock ups, bad memory management, overall laggy behaviour and such. If I wanted to use Windows Mobile again, I'd rather buy an HD2 from craigslist or eBay than flash it on my WP device.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lekhwani:
If we could use equalizers and audio effects, I would love to see dual boot.
[Windows Phone 7 General] DavidinCT:
Did you even watch the video ?

He was running ON TOP of WP7,

at one point in the video he hit back and it jumped back to WP7.

If it's like shown, an emulator, I'm great with it, if I have to flash my device, screw it, dont want it.

If I can dump 6.1 on my WP7 device to run when I want to, it opens a whole world of 10+ years of Apps that will run on it (and there is a lot more of 6.0+ apps than there is WP7 apps)

I would want to dowload it and install cabs to it, if I can't do that, then I have no needs for it.

I would much rather use an emulator on my phone than waste $150-200 on a HD2 that ran Windows Mobile 6.5 anyway.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JamesAllen:
Miss Some Things

I do miss the equalizers I had loaded on WM 6.X. I miss them a great deal. It is the one thing I am still waiting for in WP7. I have found replacements for most all of the other apps I used on WM over the last few months.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dkp1977:
I gotta admit that I didn't watch the video. I just assumed it was the one I found over at Twitter last night where a modified bootloader was shown that started WM on a WP device. An emulator would certainly be nice to play with. But I don't see me using it for more than just bringing back some nostalgic thoughts. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] pimppoet:
I dont see the reason for the hate....it may not make sense to run win95 on currrent hardware but u cant apply the same logic when wp7 is missing features/apps wm had.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dkp1977:
I wouldn't call it hate. Lack of comprehension maybe. ;) If I felt Windows Phone was missing features and/or apps I was really dependent on, I simply hadn't bought into it. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Magpir:
whats th epoinr of doing this>

IMO, going backwards not a good idea.
[Windows Phone 7 General] majkeljj:
for me it is, i have great navigarion app for WM and it don't work on WP7, iOS and on Android with problems, or GCzII app for Geocaching, so for me great idea :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Budniu:
True, true - AutoMapa rocks :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] Sonic999:
It would rock to have Garmin Mobile XT up and running via this loader on WP7. I'm still running WM6.5 because of this software. :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] Dyskmaster:
This will prove very useful for running emulators, flash, and legacy apps. Don't dis it. It's an app, not a flashed os. I'm wondering, though, if they could use any of the code from this to develop an android emulator. I mean, my windows phone rocks, but extra compatibility is always welcome. Keep it up DFT
[Windows Phone 7 General] Mr. Raza:
i would use just to trick people into thinking i flashed it onto my focus
[Windows Phone 7 General] DavidinCT:
Just think. if you can run Windows 95 on a phone you can play Doom.... 1 or 2

Well if you have a keyboard...
[Windows Phone 7 General] Ttblondey:
Hopefully can use HaRET for Android.:D

Can anyone post the .apk? I can't even download it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dhar8062:
Hi Guys!

I have a Galaxy Note but hopefully it might work with the Nexus. I uninstalled superuser.apk and bingo! Pingit works fine. You will have to keep uninstalling it everytime you wanna run Pingit though!:p Hiding the app or renaming the apk file wasn't enough.

Uninstalling superuser apk is enough on its own, no need to hide root with Voodoo OTA RootKeeper.

Hope it helps!! Good luck!

EDIT: After setting up Pingit, running it with superuser installed will produce an error. Worse still it seems to reset Pingit's settings so after you uninstall superuser you would have to go through Pingit setup again. To avoid this, NEVER run Pingit with superuser installed! Good luck again!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drmouse81:
This does not work for me. Superuser is uninstalled and the apk removed from my /system/app, but it still reports that the device is rooted in pingit.

Currently trying to find a way around it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Viridis Draco:
have you cleaned the application data? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drmouse81:
Yes. I even uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail.

EDIT: By the way, I am using a Motorola Atrix runnning the latest CM7 weekly build from atrix-dev-team, if that makes any difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Can't you just use OTA RootKeeper and temporarily unroot? Or does that not work...?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drmouse81:
Thanks for the suggestion, but I have tried that.

I'm startihng to think it does something else besides simply looking for the superuser app and binaries, as everything I have done to get rid of these still brings up the root error.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] italia0101:
any luck with this ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drmouse81:
Nope. I think it may be either refusing based on the ROM (i.e. noticing it's CM) or possibly looking at the ro.secure property. I need to try modifying ro.secure, see if that helps. Otherwise I am a bit stuck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] italia0101:
something strange happened.....

i used supersu to fully unroot, and it worked....

but then i didnt receive the text, so i exited out of the app and went back in where i had to input my passcode...

once i did that it then through up the error device is rooted....

Edit: Not sure what happened, there but i cant get it to do that again.. it must have something to do with CM , althought my ro-secure is already- 1 . so not sure where its looking ...

We are unable to register your account for Barclays Pingit. For help please call 03332001012 quoting error RP045, To maintain a quality of service we monitor and record phone calls.

Will call them later and post the response I receive.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] unFKNreal:
Called the help desk, turns out RP045 error means duplicate non barclays account. Was trying to register with my Santander account. Attempted to register with my barclays account and get same as everyone else:

A0009 This device is identified as rooted. The pingit applicantion cannot be installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] italia0101:
Is everyone here on custom kernel/ROM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evangelion01:
At what point do you guys get the error? I've installed the app and set up a pin code, but I don't want to link it to my current account.

Or do you only get the error once you've linked your account? I thought I'd try, since my Google Wallet app also doesn't seem to detect that my phone is rooted - I've never gotten the yellow banner at the top that everyone else is getting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] italia0101:
I put all my info in then when is about to send me the text it comes up saying your rooted
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evangelion01:
Ah, OK. Just tried and mine was also identified as being rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] markp1989:
Somebody asked them on facebook and they said:

I attached a screenshot

which seems a pretty poor point, as any replacement keyboard could capture the PIN during entry and this wouldnt require root access, I think they just see the word root, jailbreak or modification and panic without looking in to it properly. I did point this out on the facebook comment.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drmouse81:
I have to agree.

At the end of the day, if anyone gets hold of your phone, physically, they can bypass the security and get anything from the device. Rooting only makes that process slightly easier.

What I believe they should do is add a disclaimer stating that that since the device is rooted, they accept no responsibility. Either that or design their app to be secure, rather than relying on the OS to be secure. Plenty of apps run on PCs, and Windows PCs at that, securely.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cumonthepaj:
I managed to get Barclays Pingit working

Hey People,

Might be worth sharing. But I managed to get Pingit working on my Xperia x10 running a custom ROM.

Basically, I have uninstalled Superuser.apk and installed SuperSU instead which is available on the market.

Then I installed a second app from the market called 'Hide My Root'.

Unfortunately everytime you want to use Pingit. You will need to hide your SU Binary with Hide My Root. You will notice if you try and use Pingit without hiding the SU Bianry Pingit will not even load.

To get root back restore your SU Binary with 'Hide My Root'

Worth the hassel as Barclays Pingit I have found to be a really useful app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drmouse81:
This still doesn't work for me. cumonthepaj, can you tell me which ROM you are using, and whether you have ro.secure set to 1 or 0?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dansharpy:
This worked for me as well. Installed 'hide my root', hit hide su binaries, then hit hide su. Went into pingit and registered again and it worked! Im using super su if that makes any difference!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] markp1989:
They replied on facebook again https://www.facebook.com/BarclaysUK/posts/383881354980071

just sounds like they are going for the old security through obscurity way of thinking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] richardsoffice:
So installing 'Hide My Root' looks a good option, but not for me as it is said it will not hide root from Pingit with CyanogenMod firmware installed. :(

Has Drmouse81 actually tried a fresh install of Pingit after installing and running OTA RootKeeper ? I was hopeful until I read Post #20

Utube video of RootKeeper:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=QAI3PfiCu1w
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevinm2k:
I have Super SU installed and not superuser, i then installed 'Hide my root', in that I told it to hide root, then hide app, then I removed application data from pingit.

Tried again and got RP004 error.

I'm guessing that means root has been detected.

Is there any fool proof way round this??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cumonthepaj:
Did you install SuperSU as a replacement to superuser and then uninstall superuser.

Next step would be to install Hide My Root by Amphoras. From within the app 'Hide SU Binary'

These steps have worked for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gary:):
Hi i have superuser on my phone cant seem to uninstall it. tho i installed superSU and unticked enable superuser. is this right???

I then go into hide my root and click Hide su binary. witch it does nothink and when i click hide su app it trys to uninstall superuser but cant.... anyhelp ware am i going wroung?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cumonthepaj:
Delete superuser.apk

Hi Gary,

I actually uninstalled superuser.apk altogether using Root Uninstaller which is also available on the play store. Somehow Pingit still detects superuser even when you hide it with Hide My Root. I only use Hide My Root now to hide the su binary.

Give that a go. Hopefully when you go to use Pingit you only need to hide your su binary.

Cheers.
