[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] e1software:
Hi, I know this post is old, but I got one U8800-51 with damaged charge port and I couldn't find any root strategy using some root APK. I've used KingRoot, KingoRoot, Poot (with Ministro libraries), FramaRoot, TowelRoot, z4root, GingerBreak and nothing happens. Always says "Error". I'm using Android Froyo 2.2 in that phone.

I regret reliving this old post, but I do it out of mere necessity. I live in Venezuela and this mobile phone here is still common.

I see as a last resort repair the charge port, but for now I do not have the necessary resources.

I appreciate the help you can give me.

[HTC EVO 3D] Android Cowboy:
I've been recently running CM9 ICS (alpha) for a couple days. I want to flash back to a previous ROM but can't do it from recovery to do hboot 1.5 issues. ADB is not recognizing the device and USB mount doesn't work on this ROM. I have flash image gui but don't know if that works with Nand backups.

How do I flash the kernel from the Nand backup before restoring via recovery. Can this be done without ADB working. Thanks for any help.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Have you tried to go to Hboot and use adb from that point?
[HTC EVO 3D] Android Cowboy:
No adb in hboot or recovery. But solved the problem. Figured how to flash nand backup using flash image gui app and it worked.
[Nokia Lumia 800] wickeddeus:
Sorry, about posting this on the Lumia 800 forum but there doesn't seem to be a 710 forum. Anyway, my question is that there seems to be some rumor that the Lumia 710 being sold by Rogers is pentaband. There is a video of it unlocked and working with Wind. I'm wondering if anyone here can really confirm if it does support all the 3G bands. If so it seems like a really nice deal as they sell it for $250 no contract there and around $300 on Negri/Expensys. Thanks.
[Nokia Lumia 800] bigkahuna111:
be careful

I am having problems with the Lumia 710 I bought! I have it unlocked to work on Mobilicity and it works, however, there is a problem with the phone where any case I put on the phone causes an echo with the other caller Im calling. The other side here's an echo on their phone and it is the Lumia that is the problem. Stupid Rogers store is not willing to take it back and exchange it because I unlocked it! This is crazy, even customer service gives me the work around. Im gonna try Nokia and see what they can do, but I would advise you to buy it somewhere else even though its more expensive, otherwise you can get screwed like me.
[Nokia Lumia 800] JesseMT4G:
Take the case off.....

My wife has the same phone and has a case on hers and sounds just fine.

Now the 1st one sounded horrific without a case, but exchanged it out hassle free.
[Nokia Lumia 800] PaullikesWINMO:
@wikkeddeus

I can confirm the Rogers Lumia 710 is pentaband!

I unlocked it and using it on Mobilicity. Yes you can buy off contract for $254.99 plus taxes.

The Rogers website is not showing correct frequencies, but use this website as confirmation.

http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_lumia_710-4276.php

Hope that helps ! I would imagine anyone on WIND and Mobilicity reading this will be quite happy. Also AT&T users would be happy too as the T-Mobile version is not pentaband but since Rogers and AT&T use same frequencies the Rogers Lumia 710 is pretty much a slam dunk. It would still need unlocking but that can be had online for $9. Also note this phone is a microSIM phone so a sim cutter would be needed. Most phone shops will do that for you if you ask.
[Nokia Lumia 800] wickeddeus:
Thank you very much! That is an awesome deal for a pentaband phone. Only thing missing and a front facing camera.
[Nokia Lumia 800] PaullikesWINMO:
Yes... but the price point can't be beat. For front facing camera we will have to wait for the Lumia 900. Hopefully they make that with Pentaband frequencies. Worst case is they will make a model/version for T-Mobile and those of us on WIND and Mobilicity can use those. Or would would WIND and Mobilicity be smart enough to bring that phone into the line up? Let's hope so!
[Nokia Lumia 800] MobiLumia:
Rogers unlock

@PaullikesWINMO

Hi, just wondering how the quality of Lumia on Mobilicity is? Read other places that drops signal / slow to regain signal. Have you had that issue?

Thanks!
[Nokia Lumia 800] PaullikesWINMO:
Sorry... I didn't see this post. So far so good. I have not expirienced dropped calls or anything. I'm primarily in north end of suburbs and quite often north of the area coverage and still get Mobilicity connection. Even when in Stouffville !

I should receive my prime this week but I'm wondering about sound quality.

My music library is in lossless and i have a damn good pair of headphones (monster turbine copper. Not the shady beasts by monster) I'm also using Poweramp.

Should i expect excellent sound or you guys experienced disappointing result with your tablet
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] almightywhacko:
I don't know how many audiophiles we have here on the Prime forums, I haven't seen a lot of discussion over sound quality aside from people mentioning that the Prime's speaker sounds pretty good for videos, and discussion around the fact that both of the Prime's speakers are on the same side.

I have never had an issue with sound quality, but take that with a grain of salt since iPod ear buds also sound fine to me :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] madmike23:
Yes, the speakers are great. As for the headphone port, its pretty much just a headphone port. If you like your ear buds, you'll be fine. I've got Klipsch earbuds and Bose headphones. Absolutely no problems and there shouldn't be. Also, your app should have equalizers for adjusting.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleasian:
bought a atrix 4g today off craigslist today. phone is rooted/unlocked with CWM installed. i downloaded the files for CM9 beta and pushed them to my internal sdcard. booted into recovery, wiped data, wiped cache, wiped /system, then installed the ROM and then the gapps file. tried to reboot and now my phone is stuck on the boot screen (motorola icon and it says unlocked above). i've been waiting 20 minutes and there's still no change so I think someone might've gone wrong. ended up battery pulling and reflashing with no change.

didn't make a nandroid (i know silly me) but I can still boot into fastboot.

any ideas on what to do next?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sweetboy02125:
Don't be fool by the name. You have to actually hit uninstall in TB back up then compare the real. *.apk with the list. I found at least 95% apps matched.

Sent from my AT&T Galaxy Note - please forgive if typos
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] over2land:
I found it much easier to tap on the name of the thing, and then in the menu, where uninstall/freeze/backup etc is, tap again on the name, and the actual apk comes up.

I also found it to be somewhat less than 95-percent. I didn't calculate it, but between apps on the list that I didn't have, and apps/processes I had (that I didn't install) that weren't on the list I'd have said closer about 70-75 percent. Still, the list was a great help.

And, I didn't actually uninstall anything for fear that uninstalling might preclude me from an OTA update at some point in time. Instead, I just froze everything.

---------- Post added at 02:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 PM ----------

Cool, I took out a few more that I didn't based off that excel looking list.

Overall went from 500-600 Mb RAM used to 190-ish RAM used. I went down this road for better battery life as well. I can't see a 300-400 Mb RAM decrease as bad, unless it causes FCs elsewhere...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sweetboy02125:
How the h you can get down to 190 ish...? i removed almost everything possible. Only down to 135 app left + 63 (dl from market) = 198 apps. I always have about 450 memory and minimum 350 where hit "clear memory"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] over2land:
By removing too much, apparently.

I found out that CoPilot isn't working now. The touch screen now doesn't respond when CoPilot is running and the map doesn't move.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] andrawer:
I just "freeze" the apps I don't want running...usually only about 10 or so.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] over2land:
I have no idea how it can get so low. Here's a screen shot... After hitting clear memory. This is after unfreezing everything and figuring out what was killing CoPilot. If you have CoPilot, don't kill/remove/freeze PicoTTS

Yeah, I'm freezing stuff too. I've had too many instances of removal with Titanium in the past where re-installation failed. Freeze gets me what I want, and if an OTA ICS ever shows up and I can't get it cause I've removed ATT bloat, I just unfreeze stuff.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sweetboy02125:
Hmm. I didn't remove Pico TTS because i'm using it for Navigon and orther speaking apps. Base on you pictures, are you only have 4 background running? Mine is like 12-15..:o
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] over2land:
I think its like 8-10 now that I have running.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] keilbaca:
Is there a way in TB to view the APK's in the list, so we can just pick and choose? I couldn't find an option to do so...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sweetboy02125:
Not the whole list. You got to do it one by one and compare to the excel list.

Either hit "uninstall" and "yes" or click on to the app name (thanks over2land). It will display the "true".apk name then you can compare to the "sheet" whether it's safe to be removed or not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] keilbaca:
Thank you :)

I knew that already, but its good information for others. I was just curious if there was a way to arrange it like that to make life a little easier.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sweetboy02125:
I'm looking around for your solution and Yes there is a way. However i haven't tried it yet. Please read careful the instruction if you want to try for yourself.
