He suggested I brick my phone which would imply I rooted my phone which would in turn void my warranty.

Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you get charged a little over $100 if you report your phone as lost or stolen?
[myTouch 4G General] oak25:
Yes $130. Oh, if it is a malfunction you do not pay right?
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
Flashing a PD15IMG.zip from another device doesn't require root access...

Plus I turned in a dead phone that was rooted. They never found out or if they did... they didn't care.

[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
Lol. Assuming always gets me too.

Hypothetically, you could TRY getting, say, a radio from a different HTC device and renaming it PD15IMG.zip and placing it on the root of your sd card. Boot into bootloader and it will check for the file and ask if you want to flash it. Flashing the wrong radio will totally screw your phone over. No root needed. However, I can't condone insurance fraud. That's highly illegal

:-)
[myTouch 4G General] cjwebb:
Id imagine they'd send you an HTC mytouch 4g seeing as it is still sold on there website so no use In destroying your phone unless you have a bad emmc/screen
[myTouch 4G General] Nicgraner:
Unless they're in a good mood or something they'll send a sidekick 4G (A pink one at that) and I've gone as far as demanding to speak to a supervisor to no avail and then I see 3-4 guys getting sensations, ugh. Hahah but yes flashing a radio doesn't require root neither does pulling the battery a few times while doing that.
[myTouch 4G General] Snakecharmed:
This entire thread is an awful idea.
[myTouch 4G General] irrelephant:
You are correct, and this is the reason phones and plans cost so much! I'd the phone is fine then why duck it up and become a criminal because you want a new phone! I wish I knew your name and number so I could call and report you!
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
I agree with you man.

Honestly, i don't understand why you want a new phone in the first place, the MT4G is a great phone and probably performs as well as the sensation anyway...

And Nic, you're right, they offered my a sidekick 4g and then they got upset that i didn't want a downgrade lol....

I have the bad emmc but good screen (which makes it all better) :D
[myTouch 4G General] jjbadd385:
I would like to see a "good " screen, because I've owned 4 "bad" ones, & they have all been brilliant. In fact, I can't see it getting any better...
[myTouch 4G General] Novarox:
Am i?

I've never done this, and I had the same view as you expressed here. But after reading of so many people thinking of doing this, and no one expressly trying to stop this, I figured why not join the bandwagon.

If you can't beat em, join em, especially if there's no opposition. Anyway, relax. This was mostly theoretical and I've decided to wait on the HTC One for my upgrade. Or maybe even something even better that may or may not spring up by then.
[myTouch 4G General] ext1rpate:
I doubt they'll send you a sensation...

A couple of months ago I got a replacement phone sent because the proximity sensor on my old mt4g would cause the screen to go black during a call and I would not be able to get it to turn back on unless I turned the phone off. So I sent off my old phone and got a replacement mt4g.

I'm pretty sure they still have them in their warehouses.
[myTouch 4G General] irrelephant:
So because I live in an area where there are dope dealers I should sell dope too? I guess keeping good values when other dont is just too much for some people... I refuse to let myself be brought down to,that level. I find it more gratifying to work my ass off and save a little to get the thing I want/need, rather than lie cheat and steal! Its not a shot at you, but at all the people that have been doing it. As this make everything worse on all of us!

No, he stole it...

That's crazy I wonder how he did that he got really lucky I guess
[myTouch 4G General] 420haxr:
What I exactly did since I had insurance was report my phone stolen and then they told me to get the Samsung galaxy s and just to pay 110 for the difference of the phone. And u get to keep the mytouch too :)
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
wow so you lied...?

i'd rather get things the honest way... that's why i'm saving up for a Sensation on Craigslist.

Guys, don't give him a hard time...but also don't think i support him doing so.
[myTouch 4G General] bballcat03:
FYI, I called in on Wednesday cause my touch screen all of a sudden became unresponsive, and they shipped me out another MT4G in exchange. The phone came today, and right out the box, the speakerphone didn't work. Called them back up, sending me another MT4G.

So, they still are sending out MT4G's as replacements. No one has said anything against the sort so far.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Modulüs:
Hey guys, i want to run chrome beta ace, which is running ferhatmod by ferhatremory . But when installed apk file of chrome beta, it says that it requires at least android 4.0. I am already running 4.0.3. Now what shud i do?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tomsons26:
Because that rom is a fake and its 4.0.1 (LEGACY7) not 4.0.3

All he did is change build.prop tags and add a few MACLAW builds apk's

Chrome needs API's included in 4.0.3 ,when you launch it, it checks for API's it needs, 4.0.1 does not have those API's so it shows that error.

It shows Android version 4.0.3? 4.0.4?(I don't remeber exactly) in the rom because the build.prop is set to show that version.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tyraelasd:
and even if you get a normal ICS as CM9 it will not work becouse it doesnt work on ARMV6 phones as your Ace is
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Modulüs:
Do u mean it is impossible to get chrome apk on ace ?:-(:-)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] madman:
have a look at THIS bus as its earlier said armv6 is not supported [personally haven't tried to install it though]
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tomsons26:
Only if Google adds ARMv6 libs in a update.

To check open the APK in a archiver, open lib,

[]if there is a armeabi folder then those are Genetic ARM libs (work on all ARM devices)

[]if it contains armeabi-v6 those are ARMv6 libs

ether way if armeabi-v6 or armeabi it will work on ace then.

The latest update still does not have any ARM libs exept ARMv7

@madman_amit It won't work as i sad we need correct ARM libs
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tyraelasd:
Yes ... at least until some genious get it working on armv6 phones. Time to wait ;)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Cheeky_Fink:
Looked all over for this, seems maybe no-one knew about it. If so, sorry for this post. I just got an Atrix 2. I wasn't planning on it, but it was a really good deal. My current phone is an ST flashed Samsung Fascinate, so I don't have a SIM card, as that's a CDMA phone. I had to order a SIM, but thought I could set up the other stuff while I waited for ST to send it to me. But, when I booted after an external factory reset, I couldn't get past the emergency dial screen because there wasn't a SIM. I hit Google and XDA for a solution. Found nothing for the Atrix 2, so I tried the Atrix and Atrix 4G methods. Didn't work. So, I started playing with button boot combinations, finally found that if I booted while holding the camera button, it would bypass the no SIM issues. Hope this helps someone else out like it did me.
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
That's really interesting. Thanks for letting us know!
[Motorola Atrix 2] daenigma:
Both myself and my wife are with ST, and we could not get past the emergency screen either. I was able to use my friends T-Mobile Sim to get past it, since my sim was on order...

First time I had seen that with an android phone.

This was a huge help for me since I had to wait a week till ST sent me my new skim. I love my new atrix 2 big upgrade over Optimus Q :)

[General Questions and Answers] Asherian:
Device: Galaxy Nexus (GSM)

Carrier: Rogers

Country / Language: Canada

OS / Browser / build number (if applicable): Android 4.0.2 ICL53F

I upgraded my ROM to the stock Google one, the "yakju" build. Everything's fine; radio works perfectly, etc. The only problem is I cannot sign in with the google account I use. Each time the initial sign-in tells me I need to use web sign-in (I have 2-step turned on). I then use web sign in and enter the code correctly, it says "Signing in..." then almost immediately returns with the error "Problem occurred while communicating with Google servers, please try again later".

I got this yesterday so I tried again today, but still have the same error. If I sign in with a different Google account, everything works.

I tried a factory reset, but still got the same error.

How do I fix this?

Thanks!

i got it to work by disabling 2-step on my google account and then setting up the android phone, I then re-enabled 2-step and rebooted my phone, after using it a bit, I got prompted to sign into Google again and this time the 2-step through the browser sign-in worked.

Since the xperia x10 mini, galaxy mini and various other ARMV6 ldpi/mdpi devices are all getting MIUI v4 ports, whats the possibility of getting a port to the wildfire. This thread is just to raise awareness of it, and trying to get some developers involved. I may attempt to get a basic port from the galaxy fit or x10 mini working by using the basic tools in the rom kitchen. But thats the best I can do.

[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
Sounds good to me, I was reading a thread about how they ported it for an mdpi device earlier today, it still sounds like a lot of work resizing but I think it can be done eventually.
[Wildfire General] Lesicnik1:
I just read that the Armv6 version probably won't have themes.

Actually, the guide is for hdpi only :(

[Wildfire General] Justice™:
If you're going to use that tutorial, use the X10 Mini/Mini Pro version of MIUI most MIUI apps are resized to QVGA. We may have the possiblity of having themes in the future, since more apps are going to be opensourced. Anyway, thanks for providing the link to the tutorial. I'll try it out later.

UPDATE: Turns out its perfectly possible to port between two LDPI devices, I'll get a copy of Ubuntu setup tonight or tommorow, to start editing and compiling. I'll post any updates here.

What about porting from a wildfire s miui? i donno if our device and that one are similar, but porting from a fully functional Rom is pretty easier than a ics Rom. They still have big problems with calls and other things... so I'll today begin, if possible the porting.
[Wildfire General] Lesicnik1:
In contrast to what most people think, the Wildfire and the S version are similar only in looks and name.

The S has a better screen resolution, processor and a GPU.
[Wildfire General] togno:
ok... but basically my idea is to port a fuly-working rom to the wildy, instead of a cm-dependant one. If a cm7 based miui exists and it's compatible with wildfire, that would be great, it won't be as cool as ICS but it would be a starting point even for other developers, who can still work with android 2.x if they want to;

that's something i'll try to do, i definetly want miui on wildfire, not necessarly ICS miui.

(sorry for bad english)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .OmEgA:
If the developer tells you to do a factory wipe or wipe data, then you'll lose your data. But most cases when a developer makes a new version, you can just wipe both caches and update your rom without having to wipe your data.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scrufy:
Just to add a little to the previous post.

You could usually get away with just wiping dalvic

As for doing a full wipe where you would lose your data: thats usually only needed if the dev went from one milestone version to another on the ASOP.

Example from a GB based ROM to a ICS based.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niteh@wk:
What they said above :). In case a full wipe is required as noted by the ROM devs, I would recommend using Titanium Backup to backup your apps and apps data before wipe. You can then restore apps + data after flashing the new ROM or update. TiBu has saved me a lot of time restoring apps after a full wipe.
