[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twiztidvandal417:
If your loading a sense rom, you should try reprovisioning your phone after flashing, dial ##data# you need to enter your msl code, go to data profile, hit menu and select restore. the phone should reboot, it'll go through the hands free activation then check prl. Cancel that, let the rom load, then update your profile and prl. See if that does the trick.

I had the same thing happen to me on my wifes evo after loading mikg did that and 3g came back no issues
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1228alldaylong:
kernel?

I've been finding that the kernel is as unique as the ROM as far as the phone is concerned, and if you have the wrong combo goofy stuff starts happening... I've had a kernel recently knock out my dialer!!!??? several wipes and flashes root explorer apks etc later found the right kernel wiped flashed then wiped again reboot and boom no problem everything works.
[Android Apps and Games] alexander996:
Hi everyone I recently finished my new game and would like to ask you to say what you think. Your opinions and ideas how to improve the game are highly appreciated. What do you think I should change in the game?

Can't post link here, but just type KART RACING 3D in the android market.

Kart racing is a real racing simulator based on professional physics engine.

Karts are small but very fast racing cars popular all over the world. Most of Nascar, Formula 1, Indy car, Rally drivers started their careers from karting.

If you feel the need for speed and want to experience good racing simulation on your phone, you definitely should try this game. Unlike drag racing your results highly depend on you ability to pass corners and brake efficiently.

- Start your career and go through three leagues starting from 15 hp kart and get 90 hp superkart in the end.

- Earn money in races and buy new car parts that increase cars performance.

- Unlock new tracks.
[Android Apps and Games] Waddle:
I don't see it in the market. Can you maybe upload a version of it to xda?
[Android Apps and Games] vitorvilas:
Maybe in blapkmarket.com
[Android Apps and Games] multiplash:
Looks great, but when I try to play it, there's a FC right after the loading is finished.

I have a Motorola defy with cm9 (Android 4.0.3)

Here is the link for the ones who can't find it:

Thanks for the market link. I install it to Acer ICONIA A100.

Playing perfectly.
[Android Apps and Games] Waddle:
Ahhh its not compatible with my device. Ugh. Could the dev consider adding gs2 support?
[Android Apps and Games] alexander996:
multiplash, thank you for posting the link. What do you mean by FC? :)

Waddle it should be compatible :( Strange... I'll check it.

android.pokoten, thanks for the answer :)
[HTC Rezound] Dees_Troy:
HTC Dumlock

HTC Dumlock is a workaround for devices with HTC's unlock that cannot flash boot from recovery. Put simply, we make backups of recovery and boot, then we flash the backup of recovery to boot. When you reboot normally, you'll be in your recovery, but since your recovery is flashed to boot, you can make changes to boot. Head on over to our website for download links and instructions.

NOTE: The Rezound does not have TWRP, so you will be using the universal version!

New v2 version scans / compares the backups of boot and recovery to help ensure that you don't run it twice and wipe out your backup of boot.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
I believe I can unify all of the zips into a single one that is touchscreen based :) It would make it extremely easy and useful.
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
Con,

I hope your professor's appreciate you ! :) I was hoping you would simplify it.

Quick question, so reading through the website a few times. It is my understanding once this is properly set up when we make backups it will be backing up the kernel and when we restore backups we wouldn't have to reflash kernel or am I taking it to far ?

Also would our backups from Amon Ra still work or better to just delete them and just make fresh backups of current rom with TWRP recovery.
[HTC Rezound] Dees_Troy:
There's 2 versions, one is the universal version that works with any recovery. The other, the TWRP version, is only available for a handful of devices and that doesn't include the Rezound. I don't have a Rezound, so I can't speak for it myself, but I would imagine that your existing backups would be fine (you could read boot, just not write to it) unless you chose not to back up boot.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
I believe once I rebuild it specifically for the Rezound it will clear the confusion surrounding the purpose and use of the tool.
[HTC Rezound] king.james:
I look forward to seeing where this goes...
[HTC Rezound] pkopalek:
This may be huge. Invaluable tool if used properly.
[HTC Rezound] RustyNailz:
I wonder if this same technique would work using "fastboot boot recovery.img" instead of actually having to save / flash / restore the boot.img?
[HTC Rezound] nolimit78:
I've been asking the same question
[HTC Rezound] con247:
Yes, but the point is to avoid fastboot.
[HTC Rezound] RustyNailz:
True. But I would think there would be a way to duplicate the fastboot behavior and boot from an alternate image file without requiring the use of a PC.
[HTC Rezound] Dees_Troy:
You can only issue fastboot commands from an external device via USB while your Rezound is in fastboot mode in the bootloader.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
This is that way lol
[HTC Rezound] RustyNailz:
Not quite. I don't believe the fastboot method actually flashes anything to the boot image, so this method leaves more room for error due to the process of saving / flashing / restoring the boot image.
[HTC Rezound] Irieone:
Totally awesome gentlemen. I cannot wait to install this on my phone.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
That is the only way to do it without fastboot.

---------- Post added at 07:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 PM ----------

I am building a GUI for this so it will be pretty sick. Should be out tomorrow night.
[HTC Rezound] Dees_Troy:
Sure, but this method doesn't require a computer (or other external device) for those times when you are away from a computer. You can't do the fastboot method without a second device.
[HTC Rezound] nolimit78:
The 3D had a program called Flash Image GUI. It did what we're trying to accomplish here. Interestingly enough the program "worked" but it wasn't nearly as reliable as the fastboot method
[HTC Rezound] nolimit78:
And please don't take any of what I say a hating. I am merely discussing and spitballing. Lord knows that with the drama over at the 3D forums and Chad kernels I am not trying to bring that hate here. Not in the slightest. :)

I will post this in the other thread too. Thanks for all your hard work sir!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ino-xda:
Rooted PDAs only! Shell required!

Before doing the following steps, verify that you don't have an "/etc/resolv.conf"! I reckon none of the stock ROMs have one, but this tweak doesn't work with such a file in place.

ls -l /etc/resolv.conf || echo "ok"

If this prints some file details and you can use eg. "ping -c 3 www.google.com", you don't have the problem in the first place.

If it says "no such file..." and "ok", go ahead.

Make a file named "/mnt/sdcard/resolv.conf" containing, for example:

nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4

These are the IP numbers of the Google public DNS resolvers, BTW, but you can use any others.

mount -o remount,rw /system &&
ln -s /mnt/sdcard/resolv.conf /etc/
mount -o remount,ro /system

The problem: busybox and other C-programs use a library component called the "stub-resolver" to make IP-adresses from hostnames. This isn't capable of resolving by itself, so it parses "/etc/resolv.conf". The "nameserver" lines in there tell it where to send the UDP packets with questions like "what's the IP of Gmail.com?".

Java programs do this differently: they use "getprop" for the IPs of the nameservers, and vendor customized "dhcpcd" scripts populate the needed properties.

C-programs need the etc/resolv.conf for proper operation.

Q: what does this do for me?

A: first, it'll make symbolic hostnames work for C-programs like "wget", "ping", "nslookup" etc. As added benefit, you can see the names requested by Android programs if you give the IPs of some DNS-resolver you might have in a home LAN. Look at its logs!

Q: what are these '&&' combinations for?

A: well, we don't get to see them often, not even in developer scripts, but they are very useful! They logically "AND" commands. If the command or program before an '&&' fails, none of the following ones will get executed. So if the first "mount" doesn't work (a typo or whatever), the symbolic link by the "ln -s ..." won't be attempted at all, meaning less errors. POSIX requires compliant shells to do this type of short-circuit evaluation, so we can rely on it.

Q: why use a symlink ("ln -s ...") instead of a file?

A: This way you can change nameservers without remounting /system, in fact, you don't even need to be root for this. Change /sdcard/resolv.conf and you're set.

Q: which nameservers should I use?

A: with a patch to "/system/etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-hooks/20-dns.conf" it's possible to use the ones from your ISP provided DHCP lease. I thought a onetime manual configuration would do for the moment. You could search the web for the OpenDNS resolvers as an alternative, or use your providers resolvers (eg. from the APN config).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] iandol:
Although I already had resolv.conf added, your explanation for why it is needed was very informative!!! Thanks.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ino-xda:
Q: will this work in etc/init.d/ scripts?

A: that depends on when they run. The symbolic link points to a file on the sdcard, thus it will work no sooner than the sdcard has been mounted, but before scanning for media files, icons etc. has finished. Once the device is fully up and running, it should work reliably.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
hey guys, i think its time for me to speak up my problems here on mp general section and hoping some of you guys will answer.

my problem is that i need to root my xperia mini pro back. im currently on .62 fw unrooted. i lost the root by itself when i update my phone from .58 to .62 and currently there are no way to root .62 yet. I NEED ROOT BACK!

so the reason is why im desperate to root my phone back is because im using an app called link2sd, its an great app that can move/link any system/installed apps and dalvik cache to sd and it requires root. so i nearly move all my everyday use app such as twitter, facebook and all other games and app to my sd using the app.

the thing is like i said it requires root, but when i update my phone to the latest fw (.62) i lost my root without notice. SO, all my linked/moved app to sd using the link2sd app are now invisible from my phone/system. the only way to make it visible back is root. but there are no way to root my phone on .62. so i can say my phone is now so boring there are no games and apps because nearly all of them are invisible because of no root!

so im planning to go back to .58 using wotanserver i think? and root it there and never come back to .62 unless there are new method to root it such as using zergrush method.

so my questions, if i downgrade to .58 using the wotanserver some said it need to reset data. what does it mean? does it will reset/format/factory reset my phone? i dont really want that because to do that usually i need to backup my contacts, messages, apps and games first using titanium backup but obviously i cant because my phone is unrooted. i mean, does it mean my apps will be gone?

so help me guys, its been a month my phone become unpowerful and just and ordinary phone because of my apps and games are invisible! :B
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Edited post. Didn't read in first place.

Yes, flashing will remove all data in phone memory, apps, contacts, messages etc, so backup all your stuff to SD card(contacts via Contacts app, don't know about other stuff atm, as I lost all the stuff also). During flashing, SD card stays untouched.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
thanks for the reply man!

so if it will reset my phone memory data does it mean all my apps/games saved on phone memory will be gone? but my apps/games that are saved on sd card will kept untouched/not gone?

can someone confirm this?

if it so, then i need to write down or memorize all my apps that are saved on phone memory so that i can download it back later after reset.

its just my silly habit
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
All the apps will need to be reinstalled.

But if an app had some of its information on SD card, for example save games, then you can continue using them after flashing and reinstalling application.

Had that thing with Pro Evolution Soccer 2012, reflashed phone more than 10 times, still continued same savegame.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
i guess i have no choice but need to reinstall all my apps and games later after reset :(

the reason that you can continue your save game of pes2012 its because the save file is on the sd card. i think android games from the market doesnt roll that way.

oh well.

okay then,

can you please teach me step by step how to flash the .58 using the wotanserver without having a possibility of my phone getting bricked?

i would really appreciate it. or maybe after that teach me how to unlock bootloader and flash a custom kernel :o
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
WotanServer is quite safe, you can't mess up anything. Instructions are quite clear, and everything works automatic, you just need to tell the program, which firmware you want. It detects the phone automatically(you need to place it in flash mode, I don't know which button is for Mini Pro), you choose the firmware and it downloads and installs automatically, you just have to wait.

Also, you might need a free account also, further instructions are on the website.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
where are the links/website? :confused:

im gonna do it today while i have time so im hoping you can help me further while i have the time to do this thing :o
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
what are the websites of the wotan server again???
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] underd0g:
try use flashtool 0.6.7, and then flash .58 firmware without wiping data and cache. it should keep your app and data, then root it. recreate link2sd mount script so your app can be used again. CMIIW
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
really? that is a good news that i can flash .58 fw without wiping data and cache thats what i wanted all along! :D

so now, whats the link of the flashtool thing? im excited :D:D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] StereO_:
go search on the box provided.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
is this the right link for the flashtool thing?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1351309

please confirm this :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] StereO_:
yes, acctually u can make research 1st, also you can go search on google, simply type "flashtool" . wow there it is. :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
oh yeah i know that but my above posted link is it correct?

and one last question, are u sure if i downgrade to .58 using flashtool will not wipe my data/cache my apps and so on?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] StereO_:
if u downgrade to .58, all of your apps installed also wiped. but the data on sdcard will remain, such as game/apps data. what i do is backup apk files to sdcard using super manager. idk if there any other method to make the apps will stay remain after downgrading.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
alright, so looks like flashtool works the same as wotanserver because eventually both need to wipe data anyway.

so, what is the best way to downgrade to .58?

using wotanserver or flashtool?

i like it to be simple and safe. which do you prefer? help me make my decision :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] StereO_:
i think u should use flashtool, it`s easy to use. but follow the step provided properly. u also can flash via wootanserver but it requires high internet speed because it downloading ftf file through its server. flashtool also requires ftf file that u need to download 1st.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
okay, flashtool it is!

thanks bud
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jinyong2:
use flasttool or wotanserver
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] underd0g:
sorry for late reply, flashtool thread is pinned in development section, you can find it.

and about flashing without wiping data and cache just make sure you didn't check wipe user data, and wipe cache. by default it will be checked.

here i added screenshot of it

hope it will help you :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] AlbertoPiO:

will try it later I need to sleep busy day today

Just curious if the replacements sent from Verizon are updated with the new radios software etc or is each one a different case
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I'll let you know today. I am expecting my replacement Rezound any time now cause my first one the screen just stopped working.

If I get an obviously refurbished unit I will be extremely pissed. It better be brand new, thats all I really care about honestly.
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
It will be a refurb, that's all they send out.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
well it better LOOK brand new, cause the one I'm sending to them looks like its never been used... except the screen don't turn on anymore.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Just had 2

2 Refurbs from last week (or maybe 2 weeks ago) came as original issue.

My Rezound # 4 still ran hot, so I called VZW for a refurb (refurb # 1; those other 4 were during the worry free). First refurb came and it shot up to 130 degrees almost immediately (meaning, I set up market, downloaded battery indicator; and then while it forced an update of the 7 bloatware apps which were updated since the original market, it got super hot). Called VZW and they dispatched another one, while I sent back refurb #1.

Refurb 2 came, and didn't misbehave, so I temprooted while I could, restored titanium, and once again, turned my back for too long and it processed the OTA. At least I had Titanium Restored.

Epilogue: I kept Rezound # 4. Refurb # 2 ran about the same temps (idled hotter but didn't get as hot running apps), so I stuck with the phone I knew worked.
[HTC Rezound] subguy812:
I just have received 2 in 2 days..........first one came with a bad earpiece and the 2nd today is great. Both came with the latest software and both looked just like new.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Well, my phone did not arrive today as promised. I called Verizon, and the guy who answered very apologetically explained to me that "the manager" had "rejected" my warranty on the basis that he didn't want to approve the free overnight shipping.

They said that they tried to reach me via telephone unsuccessfully, to which I replied: "So let me get this straight... I went to a store for a new phone cause mine didn't work. You didn't want to pay to send me the new one overnight, so you tried calling my phone which you knew didn't work to explain the situation, and when I didn't answer you just cancelled the order? Brilliant work. I can see how you became the biggest wireless company in America." ...to which I got an awkward pause followed by more ass-kissing from the guy on the phone.

So anyways, hopefully this time it gets done correctly. Once again they promised to overnight me a replacement Rezound, however its beyond the cutoff for it to go out tonight, so I won't actually get it til Friday. Ahh, so frustrating!

Damn man, what a freakin' joke though. For such a simple and straightforward exchange this is turning out to be quite difficult a task for them...
[HTC Rezound] y2jdmbfan:
Well I am on replacement #3 and I just got it home opened the box and what do you know? The frame on the USB connector is loose. It makes all kind of rattling when the phone vibrates, I had this problem with refurb #1. Hopefully #4 is lucky. This one had the latest ver 2.01 OTA already installed. Phone looks perfect otherwise. I am going to be calling Verizon in the morning. The people that work the phones at night are generally useless when it comes to the tech support end of it, although they do have some good people over there...

[HTC Rezound] phillybizzle:
Just got my replacement and I.found a pleasant surprise a brand new 16GB sd card!! I know there are different classes of.cards.which is.the best. Also the.bootloader says 2.10 instead of 2.11 like my previous is.that. good thing
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
HBOOT 2.10 most likely means that the firmware has not been updated to the latest OTA. That COULD be a good thing if an S-OFF exploit becomes available for that HBOOT. One would only assume that the newer one might be harder to break. However, it really doesn't matter if you are careful, S-OFF just makes everything straightforward.
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
Class 10 is the best. Or should I say the fastest. Best is another story.
[HTC Rezound] mpalatsi:
All Rezounds come with 16 GB.

Here's a guide for the classes:

Class 2 is 2mb per second.

Class 4 is 4mb per second.

Class 6 is 6mb per second.

Class 10 is 10mb per second.

Google is pretty cool bro, you should check it out sometime.

Side note: I own a class 10 and if you transfer a lot of files to and from your phone, I highly recommend spending the extra cash for the speed. :)
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
I thought that people where having trouble with the class 6 and 10 and having the phone recognize the sd card. I think I only saw one or two posts on it so maybe it wasnt wide spread.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Well

I am running the Sandisk Mobile Ultra 32GB (Cl 6) and it is just fine. I understand from other posts that the 64GB version DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY.
[HTC Rezound] phillybizzle:
well for being left in my replacement phone its not too shabby.. even came liaded with porno
[HTC Rezound] mpalatsi:
I have 32GB (class 10) , no issues here.

Lies. :rolleyes:
[HTC Rezound] hockeytown:
It will be a refurb! Your best bet for a New one is going to a store. I did back at Christmas time when my original was getting almost to hot to handle and was operating extremely slow. When you called you should have insisted on a new one! I got my original on November 27th and it was December 28th that I went into the store and felt with the salesman and I told him it has only been a little over a month and that I was not taking a refurb. And he said "well let me see if we have any in the back" and low and behold they did. I was thinking he was going to give me the box and take my old one and send me on my way but he had me take the Sim out and he put it in the new one and put the broke one in the box that the new one came in with the headphones. Darn! Thought I was going to make out with an aditional set of Beats, but no such luck! BUT I did keep my 16gb card from the old and he left the 16th in the new so that was a bonus!
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I just got my replacement Rezound today finally! Looks brand spanking new - perfect screen, new back cover, new 16GB SDCARD, nothing is loose or appears broken at all. I'd say I'm pretty happy overall, just took a whole damn week to get it sorted out!
