Most of the security-related information is stored along with the Radio firmware. S-ON/S-OFF is, CID is, SIM-Lock is, so bootloader lock is probably too.
[HTC Wildfire S] compro01:
HTC is not who you need to talk to. You need to go to the store where you bought the thing.
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Went there today (o2 store) the guy basically said if that's what HTC said then its my hard luck.
[HTC Wildfire S] benjamingwynn:
What an ass hole lol.

I would just spam HTC customer support up with complaints like I did when there was no bootloader unlock. They don't like me anymore. It also kills there reputation badly so they will say things to try and make up for it.

Just call or email them again, hope you get some stupid ass HTC woman who don't know jack **** about phones and gives you a free HTC One X as a replacement lol.
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Yeah I'll get on the case thanks, the one x should make up for my troubles lol

I've been bombing their inbox for days now about getting ANY Marvelc kernel sources. They keep refering me to http://htcdev.com/contact, and I keep responding that I have, and I want Marvelc sources. I must admit, I'm not being nice anymore either.

"Danielle" is taking it in stride though. :)
[HTC Wildfire S] sgiitk:
This sort of behaviour is not unheard of. in 2007 my daughter bought a Compaq laptop with a international warranty. She went to Nottingham and had a problem. When contacted HP essentially said that take it back to India for repairs, and quoted some page (14 or something) of their web warranty, basically claiming that since the model was not sale in the UK (the numbers always change across borders) they did not want to know. Then she wrote back that she is a lawyer, and was a PG at Notts U. They immediately advised her to take it to the service centre in (or just at the fringe of) the campus. Then unit was sent to the HQ and was back with a new power board within three days (this too in the XMas period).

So you have to persist, and if possible bare your fangs to get anything done.

A quick question about the haptic feedback on the softkey. I is there any ways to shorten the duration?

Is there a way to re-add the application menu? Normally I click on an icon that looks something like a grid of 4 squares to get to my entire list of applications. I can then drag the icons for these to one of my main screens. What do you do if this "4 square" button is gone? How do I get to my list of applications? (I can still manage my applications).

[General Questions and Answers] PakAttack1994:
wouldn't it depend on the type of ROM your running? on CM7 I would hold down on the home screen, add "Launcher Actions", click "Open/close App Drawer".

Hey guys.

Just thought i should inform that Box.net is giving away 50GB of free storage until March 23rd. So if you haven't used the Sony Ericsson trick yet, do yourself a favor and sign up today. Heck, why not just make two accounts and get 100GB!

V3 Boot Animation

New bootanimation, and no this isn't the stock one that comes with the new CM9 ROMs although it is based on it. The stock one has some serious pixelation with the black background but was higher quality after the "burst" effect. So I merged V2 and the stock together making an overall better quality bootanimation. Also the beginning of the boot animation is alot shorter in the stock. Another thing is that the stock bootanim felt quite slow so I sped that up a bit also.

OUTDATED

_______________________

LQ Boot Animation

HQ Boot Animation because of the size and number of pictures, it won't be as smooth as LQ/V2

Reduced and Quicker Animation V2 Smoother, faster frame rate, Medium Quality

if animation speed of V2 is too fast click here to download V2s
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] bamastang:
Downloading now... Thanks!!

Downloaded LQ and installed... works great. Downloaded HQ, but have not installed. May try it later!

Thanks for the share!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Atr1x:
Your welcome, I might release a newer version with lower size while still retaining quality later. :D

Nice!!! i saw this on youtube yesterday, and was trying to find a file for it somewhere, thank you!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Atr1x:
New Boot Animation Version. Resized to QHD and compressed, check OP.

Original File from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22862145&postcount=46

Changes.

Well every 5th picture is removed, making file smaller.

Frame rate is increased to 60 making the animation faster.

Quality is between LQ and HQ versions and the only notable difference is that it's faster and a bit smoother. If you like the slower animation check the OP for slower version.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] aideneisley3:
tried the high quality version and well it looks nice, its just not very smooth kinda laggy/jerky gonna try the reduced one.

thank you

do you have to have CM9 for this to work? I wanted to use this boot animation just to have something different but it won't let me copy the bootanimation.zip file to my system/media folder
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] wywerny:
Yes it works! I've flashed this animation on jokersax CM9 and now enjoying it!:p
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] the_KEV:
any way to install without having CM9?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] guidoido004:
Of course, is just a bootanimation.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] the_KEV:
Everytime I try to copy the bootanimation.zip file to the /system/media folder, it fails. Other ones work though. I cant figure it out

edit: nvm tried putting it in my /data/local folder and it worked... go figure never had to do that before
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Atr1x:
Kk the flash works for cm7 and cm9 and also any ex4 rom. Ex3 roms such as stock blur probably wont flash, though its really easy to change update script to ex3.

Anyway the bootanimation.zip should work on all. Did you check permissions? Also try using root explorer and make sure you have enough space in the /system partition (HQ might be too large try LQ)
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] ghostpoisonface:
I have the reduced and quicker installed on my phone. Even with faux's 1.45 kernel it always freezes for one second twice during boot, i've wiped everything and used it on every ics rom out. it doesn't really bother me, it still looks so sweet i don't care. Are people having better luck with a different one? Thanks so much either way.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] MrPerson:
I've never changed my boot animation before, and I was just wondering if by flash it you mean do as I would do to flash a new rom? Or is there a different process for boot animations?

Thanks in advance and thanks for the great boot animation, this looks so amazing!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] ...Awesome...:
Yes just boot into recovery and flash it like a rom and reboot
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] jtlatrix:
Very simple steps. I'm using CM7 with Neutirno build and the animation works great! At first I thought I was stuck on the boot menu with the Motorola M but I just had to wait a little. Thanks for the boot animation!

This Boot anim flash in which location?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Atr1x:
The official cm9 bootanim has a bunch of frames so even with good compression and fast CPU its going to lag. Plus the phone is using most of its resources booting up so there's going to be a bit of lag.

V2 is 60fps

V2s is 50fps

LQ and HQ is 40fps

The bootanimation.zip is located in system/media. Get the bootanimation.zip in the flash file, move to system/media, and set permissions if you want manually install. However its much simpler flashing.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] aaron.a:

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Kelvin0007:
Very nice Bootanimation but im having a problem. Mines doesnt loop just ends after the blue entering effect and the screen turns black until the os boot. What could be causing that? By the way Im using stock kernel and GB 2.3.6 rom
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] freszu:
I had the same,try flash again.im using stock kernel and GB 2.3.6 GingerMod #10.5
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Atr1x:
The flashable zip is for ext4 while stock GB uses ext3, but it should still work, try flashing again.

Anyways try checking the permissions of the bootanimation.zip in system/media.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] rcaliman:
fantastic, congratulations!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Atr1x:

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiidbzxt:
Hi, my contract is about to end soon, and I'm looking forward for a new Xperia phone (preferably), I'm being offered for free the Xperia Neo V and Xperia Mini Pro. Should I pick it up? Or wait for another phone (mid range)?

Xperia Neo V seems more appealing than Xperia Mini Pro, though, it screen is slightly smaller and the camera is 5mpx I think, not to mention it lacks Exmor-R camera len, it's not like the X10 has it, but it would be a nice feature. But it has the quick start-up and the quick-capture functionality at least.

So what do you guys say? I was waiting for the Xperia Pro, but it won't be on sale in my country. :(
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a.monteiro:
maybe wait a lil bit longer, the 2012 series is almost upon us, hopefully the 2011 line may receive a price drop. I would gladly trade my x10 for any 2011 xperias if I could get one cheap.

Surprised you can even stream music via bluetooth. I'm having a heck of a time doing the same on my Kenwood DNX8120 with my Galaxy Nexus. It pairs up and everything.

5GB thats cool i get like 7kbps on 3g here so basically "unlimited" for me since i would never reach that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
That's precisely why I left Sprint. No point in unlimited data when I can't even reach the cap of other carriers due to ridiculously slow speeds.

I average 6 mbps on AT&T's HSPA+ 3G network. Waaaaay better than the >100kbps on Sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] justlovejoy:
hspa+ is 4g data. w/e that cap on phones may also apply to roaming on 3g if i remeber correctly, didnt click ur link OP
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bondosho:
I'm in Orange County, CA, and I average 600k-1.4mbps. This is fine for when I'm just looking up something quick. I'm content with that. Why? Because cell phone, not server. When I'm home I use my 15mpbs internet connection, and I jump onto my company wifi at work just to save battery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aaron7pm:
You get unlimited 4G, but only 5 GB of 3G because they expect you to use your 4G often and not your 3G.

As for speeds, I range from here on the outskirts of Houston I range from .10mbps-.30mbps on Edge (2G), .20mbps-1.4mbps 3G, and 4mbps-14mbps on 4G. Not bad at all, I actually get those speeds practically everywhere, even in other cities and states.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ssconceptz:
This is a marketing tactic to get you to go with 4G.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TriBeard:
There was a massive outrage about this not all that long ago, and several tech sites did articles about it and the truth was that it was a limit only for tethering, and that regular smartphone data was still really, honestly unlimited.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] im0rtalz:
What they say about the speeds is true though, not trolling because I still have Sprint haha.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fenixjn:
Last time I checked this was XDA... did ownership change?.

I know you work for Sprint and seem to be proud of it. You cannot deny that, as with all networks, Sprint has an issue with respect to coverage and speeds. Yes it gets repeated over and over but that's business: you find lots of complaints when something goes wrong and not a single praise when everything is working as it should be unless you did something exceptional. Part of being proud is to also being humble when a flaw is shown. Either offer a solution or don't offer anything at all (not even a remark like that).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
It's really not relevant who "owns" XDA.

IF you are coming to a sub-forum for the sole purpose to whine about something that doesn't even apply to you... I mean come on... that's the true definition of an internet troll.

And the fact is that all [I'm just going to underline it because it needs it]

ALL

carriers have different ranges of coverage and speeds depending on the area.

Even "the greatest carrier to ever exist in the history of mankind omg lightening bolt" :rolleyes: Verizon has areas where coverage severely lacks and speeds are bad.

Either way. This is a developer forum.

Not a "whine to no end about your carrier" forum.

Everyone on this forum knows that some are dissatisfied with Sprint.

Great, switch and be done with it.

On topic: It definitely pertains to something not related to phone bandwidth.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bear gri11z:

Take this **** to a more relevant forum.... Sprint has their own community page where they can help you with your carrier specific complaints

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neodorian:
This is why I just use the tethering app on the rare occasions I need it. Let's see...pay $70/month for unlimited data and some minutes I never use. I can either forward that same data to a larger screened device or pay another $30 or $40 or whatever for 5GB of tethered data.

It doesn't really make sense. Honestly I get that they are subsidizing the cost of more basic use by charging more for what is typically considered a "power user" feature but it's still stupid IMO. Considering my 3G speeds have gone from 800k to 50k over the past 4 years I find it amusing to think that I would be paying extra to get the same thing I already pay for.

The cheaper plans are the only thing keeping me on Sprint for now. If T-Mo manages to make good use of that breakup money they will remain my backup plan. MVNOs have good prices but good handsets are artificially limited to the higher cost carriers. VZW and ATT would cost me at least half again as much as I pay now and my data will be capped (not to mention the shady **** they have been involved with as far as wiretapping and lobbying).

Guess it's Sprint with unlimited slow 3g and decent 4g for another several years here...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BigRitz:
everything at sprint at this point is basically because of the dumba** iphone they have to cut cost and corners everywhere because of the huge $20billion deal they signed.

I think some people need to look up the definition of troll. And for your information, I do complain about Sprint but there is not a solution. So you saying that to me applies to all the people I was just talking about. So stfu
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] azyouthinkeyeiz:
First off, I believe you forgot the meaning of this statement, somewhere around the start of it.

Secondly, (straight from Wikipedia)

"a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response"

Which, your first post is an example of. Is this thread about trolls? No? Then your comment was solely to incite them, as such.

Maybe, just maybe, you should take your own advice, and stfu, before you make yourself look even more "off-keel".

Now, onward with on-topic conversation. That's it for me.

It was unnecessary for anyone to come in here and say they can't reach 5GB because Sprint is so slow. If you are defending them and saying they aren't a troll then you are the testament to the very definition you have posted.
