i installed Universal Androot and rooted my device.

if i reflash de device will i be able to use any network? (is locket in vodafone spain now. that is the main reason i wanna reflash it. so i can use it in any network)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 5[Strogino]:
No. Reflash-process does not unlock locked network. To unlock you need buy unlock-code or find any free variant (get unlock code for free (if you are lucky man) or tell vodafone spain what you are using phone outside Spain and ask code; or something else)

I have a 32A hboot 1.33.0013 - radio 2.22.28.25- android 2.2.1 (htc t-mobile)

Am I able to load a a dreamteam foyo rom w/ clockwork mod without s-off?

I dont really need cm7, just alittle nicer and quicker setup than the stock stuff... thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tvall:
Yes. Root and install a custom recovery. Then wipe and flash.

Gingerbreak or superoneclick root works for rooting. Rom manager app can usually install a recovery

Edit, it says 32a and a 2.22 radio? Cpld 13 I'm assuming? And a headphone Jack on top? You can get s-off by flashing an Eng spl (like 1.33.2010) but it'll break a lot of stuff. And you don't need it for anything
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] wogeboy:
Yes, has the 3.5mm jack on top. I do have the original 1.6 backup OS on sd card if I need to go back. (currently at 2.2.1)

(nonslide mytouch 3g)

I will try the superoneclick root method and then go to market and download the rom manager and choose clockwork recovery and look at roms avail.

thanks very much for info! :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] wogeboy:
p.s.

I am going to download (add to formated sd card)

dreamteam froyo 1.9

dt froyo gapps

ezterry 1.5.2 (do i need this?)

I think thats all i need on the sd card. Will add the clockwrk recovery via rom manager program from marketplace. I still hold down the Vol down and pwr button to get into clkwork recovery?

I will wipe cache , then flash with dreamteamfroyo, gapps and ezterry (one after another after each one finishes?)

Phew... THanks !
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tvall:
On the dream and magic the only think s-off does is allow fastboot flash. And you don't need that unless you're constantly flashing radios, spls, splash screens (the first one). And radios and spl can be flashed (with extreme caution) through recovery

Btw, root != s-off and vice versa. Root = gaining root access.

S-off is turning off security in hboot (on newer HTC devices, this also controls rw access to /system. Not the same here)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tvall:
To get into recovery you press home+power. Other than that, I think you have everything right
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] wogeboy:
Cool thanks! :)

Gonna give it a whirl tonight .
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] wogeboy:
Ran superoneclick.. seemed to worked, I have superuser icon

Downloaded and installed Rom Manager from marketplace and installed Clockwork mod.

After installing clockwork mod, I clicked the reboot now in clockwork mod option, but it just sits there.. rebooted and tried again, same thing.

I then tried load rom within the clockword mod program on the phone and it does show the files on the sd card. But I was afraid to go further..didnt want to screw it up..just in case.

any thoughts? perhaps not rooted? I found gingerbreak, but in the folder there was no apk file to load from sdcard.
[General Questions and Answers] herzzreh:
I currently mostly spend my days using the phone as *gasp* a phone, sending lots of SMS (mostly) and general net browsing for a few hours a day.

I'm looking for a new phone with 3.5-4 inch screen, EXCELLENT camera and a Xenon flash. I would prefer Android.

Your recommendations pls?
[General Questions and Answers] Felimenta97:
I don't know if there is any Android phone with Xenon flash, and I would recommend Xperia Neo (the camera is good, but not excelent)

Hello guys,

I was just wandering if it were possible to use the widgets from sense 4.0 from the leaked RUU on sense 3.0 or 3.5.

Sent from my HTC Vision
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michuo:
I don't think it's possible.
[Motorola Droid X2] DaveRichardson:
This is definitely one of the more enjoyable XDA sub forums in terms of atmosphere. You guys made an unbearable phone (mine was particularly bad in terms of screen ghosting) kind of fun to own, in a misery loves company kind of way. I'm sure I'll keep checking in to see what treats DZK is cooking up for you guys (and to see if Ace ever does release a better Miui).

Anyway, I just couldn't take owning a Moto product anymore, so thanks to Craigslist, I've left for the greener pastures of the Nexus S 4G (and pocketed a cool $80 in the process...food for thought.)

[HTC Wildfire S] Wolf Pup:
Hi!

We all know that no.human.being and some others (theq86, etc.) are striving to get S-OFF, on se-nsei's thread:

[S-OFF CAMPAIGN][WFSDEV] Kernal developers needed - advice is greatly appreciated!

So, I've decided to make this thread to keep you up to date with the latest news.

I'd also like to thank NHB for his extreme help, and the fact he killed radio protection.

So, like I said, here's the latest news:

Yes, amazing!

I hope that together, we get S-OFF, and a bunch of other things.

Doctor Who is awesome!

(had to say it)
[HTC Wildfire S] inconn:
Does the "RADIO PROTECTION IS DEAD" mean that we'll be able to unlock the SIM card without a hassle now?
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
that depends, as far as i know the plan is to dump the radio from before and after xtc clip. if the radio houses the sim unlock information as well as the s-on s-off information then i assume that they will do both atm, if not then as soon as you have radio s-off the htc diag file from the xtc clip *should* work to remove the simlock and supercid, but that remains to be seen;)
[HTC Wildfire S] inconn:
:)

So are there any estimates how long will it take to break in?

A week? Two weeks?
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
depends on how long it takes to get someone who has the phone plus a clip to get the files needed, then nbh needs to write the program to edit the files on the phones succesfully and safely, then beta test on a few phones to make sure that there is no long term phone damage. soo could be 2 weeks could be a month no way to tell. just remain patient we are nearly there:D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bevo1982:
Hi There,

I'm getting a little stuck with IHASHGPU. I tried all the hashes in my nv_data.bin but unfortunately I don't have a compatible GPU.

I've extracted the nv_data.bin and have attached the file.

I have the unlock code from my network provider but it doesn't work and I think I need the unfreeze code now. Would someone be able to extract the unfreeze and unlock codes or provide a clean nv_data.bin for me? Either one would be greatly appreciated. I'm just restriced due to compatability issues.

Thanks mate. That's where I got all my info from. But because I don't have 10 posts I can't post in that thread for help.

Ahhhh. Hmmmm. OK.

What I'll do is post in that thread for you, and link to this post. Hopefully someone will have a look & maybe give you some options ?

Edit to add - Here's the post I made in the sim unlock thread.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavaliere06:
Since I can't post in that thread could anyone ask dertys_ to help me with my nv_data.bin, also would like to know what he does with it, since looks like has not much to do with Odia's method
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooza:
Why dont you just use Chainfires free unlock app from the market.

https://market.android.com/details?...sImV1LmNoYWluZmlyZS5zZ3Myc2ltdW5sb2NrY29kZSJd

Some say that when you put in the code it says Code Incorrect but unlocks the phone anyway but Ive had the same message unlocking phones via IMEI unlock so wouldnt this be easier.Alot of people swear by it.

App didn't work for me

sadly for me the app didn't find a code for me, neither Helroz app or online services gsmliberty.net or mobilefreedom.net :( running out of options to unlock
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowofdarkness:
Helroz app doesn't give a unlock code it just does it just unlocks the phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavaliere06:
Helroz didn't work for me

I know I was talking about the other app by chainfire.

The helroz app said it unlocked, and when you checked the status it appear as unlock, but when I put another SIM it said: Network lock at start and didn't gave any signal

:confused:

Holy crap it's unlocked! I never new there was another app. Tried Helroz app and it worked first go! :D:D:D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bevo1982:
I didn't get any prompts when I used it. I hit step 1 so it did the backup, there was a confirmation there. Then pressed step 2 and the screen went blank for a few seconds, the phone rebooted and all of a sudden it was unlocked.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damian01211:
Gi guys. Im thinking about update my x8 to miui but to have working wifi on this rom u have to do static ip.

Can someone tell me how to do it ?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Wi-Fi settings

Press the menu key -> "Advanced"

Tick "Static IP" and fill out the required info

I have no idea about how often this question was already answered.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damian01211:
I know where is it . I just dont know from where i can get the static ip , dns and other stuff.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
Since neither me nor anyone else knows about the network configuration of the network you want to connect to, I don't think we're able to tell you what you should put into the various fields.

The one to work out, or know, that stuff is YOU.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bolussimo:
If You're using Windows - run cmd.exe and type there ipconfig/all. And this will answer Your question :P
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dipusen:
I can help you. You need to connect your computer or laptop first with the wifi network. Then open the wifi adapter property from PC(pic 1). Click on Details button as in picture 1. The details window copy the details marked in yellow rectangle(pic 2).

Just follow all values exactly same except he IPv4 address. Use the IPv4 address in your phones IP address box but change the last digits after dot.

If you are getting confused please send me the screen shots of your windows as mine.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
dipusen, you forgot to mention that this will most likely work without troubles in a home network but shouldn't be tried in a School (WiFi) network, or any other public WiFi, as chances are (by incrementing the last octet of the IP) that this could trigger a duplicate IP in the network if the $currentIP 1++ is already assigned to another device by DHCP.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dipusen:
Good point, you are right.
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
Hi everyone.

Devs, please read this: http://www.xda-developers.com/developments/mozillas-boot-to-gecko-running-on-a-samsung-galaxy-sii/

Is it possible for X8?

It looks like a nice OS, and i think that maybe it would be possible to make a custom bootloader that'll bypass android and directly boot into Boot-to-gecko. That would be waaay to cool :)
[XPERIA X8 General] B.Jay:
I haven't looked at the Boot to Gecko source (not even sure if Mozilla open sourced it yet), but chances are that this is meant for ARMv7 / TEGRA series CPUs

Since it's based on the underpinnings of Android I don't think that a change of the boot loader is really necessary, but it might require some efforts to port it to the ARMv6 series (unless Mozilla doesn't use ARMv7 specific code).

EDIT: On a second thought ... with this we're most likely back to old problem of DRIVERS for the X8.
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
Yeah, you're right here, we just have to cross our fingers that Mozilla will use ARMv6 Compatible code.

About the drivers. Well, some of us, with older x8's have unlocked bootloader, so it shouldn't really be a problem. Plus, we have really good devs. Problems would be for those persons that have 11W29 + Phones

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aranurea:
Here is a tip on how to increase battery life by at least 50%. For me, it has increased by 83%, given that my S II is relatively new (3 months old). It is an app in the market which you can get for free: JuiceDefender

MUST:

Remove any task killing apps (Advanced Task Killer) otherwise this app is useless as it needs to be on at all times.

I have my settings set to Aggressive, as I don't use my phone much during the day.

My normal on the Bombaridier v3.5 ROM by TricH was 100% at 7:00 AM and 88% at 10:23 AM with only 40 minutes of music and standby with no data connection or Wi-Fi. With JuiceDefender, I get 100% at 7:00 AM and 98% at 10:23 AM with the same circumstances of use. It is worth downloading and will extend battery life. I have 83% more battery life according to my math (which is (10/12)=(x/100)) and it is amazing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GaryAustin:
I agree that JuiceDefender is an excellent product for extending battery life.

I have the "Ultimate" version.

JuiceDefender alongside "Battery Monitor Widget Pro" is the killer combination...

I did notice one slight bug with JuiceDefender (JD) - there's a known issue with wifi management. Phone turns itself off occasionally. The fix is to simply set JD "disabled" for WiFi management - problem then goes away.

I also listen to music (Pandora) over a Bluetooth headset (about 3 hours per day).

I regularly get about 18hrs+ (combination, on average: 3 hours on voice, lots of email). Stock, rooted ROM... bloat removed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cashyftw:
I agree Juice defender is purely amazing, according to JD stats, I get 1.83% more battery life, that's with aggressive settings.

Ps: Thanks for the Wifi tip
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 8Fishes:
It'll be hard pressed for any app to extend my 3+ days of usage on a single charge. Just sayin.. :P
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rob010:
I just bought the ultimate. I will let everyone know how it goes after a week of using it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] avarize:
That's not called usage. That's just carrying a weight around with you. I'm sorry but you're not getting 72 hours on a single charge.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iLeopard:
Beat me to it :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 8Fishes:
The first thing that came to mind is; haters gotta hate.

I use it just fine with my purposes.

Check/write emails, make calls. Nifty info widgets for updates. I just don't use it for everything because that's just silly. That's the reason why I get such a long run-time. I already have a dedicated media device, no need to watch videos, etc etc on the phone.

Just because most people don't get more than a day usage, don't mean it doesn't happen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
whoa 18+ with 3hours voice is killer.

i barely get about 16 with 2.5 voice and roughly 2.5 display on time

just fyi to those who don't know. voice weighs heaviest on battery usage, even more so than display.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] twiztidninja:
I can get 2 days with moderate use but I dont realy tLk on the phone and I use wifi most of the time
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aranurea:
Seems to me that most people who use this app set to Aggressive, get around 83% more battery life. Amazing app and my math was on point.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chhan02:
will definitely try this out! thanks for the tip!

on a side note, has anyone tried to undervolt and underclock? if so, which is the best program for this? i am using setcpu but doesn't seem to allow voltage tweaks. with JD and undervolting, i can only imagine what type of battery life this would have :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] avarize:
Not trying to "hate" Just don't see it getting 72 hours. I'd like to see some screen caps of that if it's somehow possible with any use.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aranurea:
Use the Darkside X kernel and under clock to 1128000 or something and it still runs smooth.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] demonwind:
Best thing you can do to to increase battery life is to disable all those Google services. I don't know why but I make it pretty clear in the settings that I do not want any auto-update or syncing of any sort but it happens anyway, so I have to manually freeze all the **** that Google insists on running 24/7.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Anthonomy:
Thanks for the tip! Extra battery life is always welcome. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
Although jd isn't exactly new, but there seems to be a lot of people who just heard of it now. Not bashing but this just shows that there seems to be a lot of new android users or well xda members since the release of our awesome device. I bet most are all former ifags (don't take me seriously).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jagon91:
Lmao. I think this made my day. xD I was using juice defender way back when the droid eris was new and I still do! It works wonders. When I had a dell streak I went from 6-8 hrs of batt life with no usage to over 2 days.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Niners77:
Sorry if I sound like a tool for asking this but if you turn off the Google gmail and calender sync then how do you get your emails?

U have to manually check for mail all the time?

sorry, having issues with my battery also. I use Juice Defender but the free version - everyone that is having success with it are you using the purchase one, Juice Defender Ultimate?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Oskiee:
Ive had my phone since october, and the battery has gotten better and better. And im not doing anything special, stock rom, no juice defender, no task killer, nothing of that sort.

I use wifi tether almost all day at work(about 6 to 8 hours) and I still have 20 to 30 percent left when i head home.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jagon91:
I don't understand the turning off of the gmail sync either. I have 3 gmail addresses alone that go to my phone.

I use the free version of JuiceDefender and currently at 18Hrs and 52min I still have 21%. That's about normal for me since I do stream videos via youtube, netflix, and also using the samsung allshare for at least 3-4 hours a day. I am also a heavy texter, web user, and social media user so I have to say it lasts a lot longer. I tested it out and without JD I get 6hrs tops while doing all that. I hope this answers your question! :D

Forgot to add I have mine set on aggressive!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Niners77:
omg I use the same settings on Juice as you, hardly text and only 1 email account and I barely get 8 to 9 hrs!. :mad:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Check your area anywhere with bad tmobile reception will cause the radio to drain battery trying to hold on to a signal. Use wifi calling if it's available. Be sure to use a strong wifi connection. A weak one will drain your battery as well when using wifi calling. Try out a different radios some work better than others. Give the radio three to four days to settle down. To make an accurate test. If it's better or not.

You don't have to disable sync your Google account it uses the least battery out of anything. But your twitter, Facebook apps drain battery. Because of their polling. Google apps besides maps or currents never showed up on my battery usage. Google + which I'm mostly on besides twitter doesn't even drain battery.

Make sure you if your a heavy twitter addict that you'll might as put it on manual fresh. Use widgets that are connected to the main applications you want to use. For example you have apw and also have plume running in the background. You would be better off with just using plumes widgets. Since they both would poll for data.

Ten to 15 hours on a smart phone is expected. They are not the little flip phones which do nothing except receive text and calls that would last weeks at a time. The only time I got a day is when I wasn't using my phone. Which was easily achievable.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikea3000:
How do you mange ot get 5 hours of voice and display? I am completely stock and get no more than 3 hours combined. I do roughly 1.5 hours talk and 1.5 display. i do text a lot tho, roughly 300 or more per day but can still never get more than 14 hours out of the phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 2hvy4grvty:
This is false.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jagon91:
I use it quite a bit but like the other guy said, make sure you have good signal strength if not go to wifi, if you don't have wifi force it to be on edge/gprs only to save battery. I live on my phone and love customizing every aspect, however I have noticed the only thing I shouldn't customize is the lockscreen. For example, using go locker instead of the stock lock screen. It reduced my battery life exponentially. Went back to stock and am now getting over 20 hrs of battery life with moderate usage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] saltmine:
So far, I'm doubting the accuracy of the battery % saved statistics that this app shows. It says I have doubled my battery life (x2.02) when the increase I actually measured is more like +10% rather than +102%
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] twiztidninja:
Yea my phone last all day even those long 7 am to 1 am days like right now
