There are so many threads on this subject it makes my head hurt
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoramweil:
The problem is the recent update in Sammy bootloader. Try flashing one of the previous builds via Odin such as LPJ it LPH. Then the new one. This should do it:rolleyes:

Whenever I download fr3vo it is not a .bat file which I need according to:

http://theunlockr.com/2011/09/09/ho...mobile-mytouch-4g-slide-revolutionary-method/
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
just root with Mr Root...every thing is automated :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Drzfr3shboialex:
thanks does it do s-off or htc's unlocker?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
depends on your bootloader version....if compaitable it will s off...if not it will use htc dev
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Drzfr3shboialex:
thanks ......
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Drzfr3shboialex:
Can someone upload fr3vo b/c the mr root download keeps being interrupted
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
sorry for the DL error it worked on mine :/....well here's Fr3vo
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Drzfr3shboialex:
It is not working either :/, thanks anyways. I need to push fr3vo but idk how, I did it on the mytouch 4g but do not know how on the mt4gs
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
dude i think think its your internet...can someone else confirm plz
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Drzfr3shboialex:
for the temp root it keeps saying no such file or directory :/
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
wait for after you DL it...you run fr3vo.bat and what does it say
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Drzfr3shboialex:
It tries pushing fre3vo but it fails, and then it says no such file or directory, and permission denied for other things. I can't really show it now b/c my mom is using the laptop. Is there another way to root it besides mr root and/or htc dev. I'm going to try and download mr root tomorrow again.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] expiredwater:
Wow, yesterday I had the same EXACT problem as you. I tried using that guide and I was also stuck with the Fre3vo part. It was just so annoying and then I found his older guide tinyurl.com/3w77z39 and it worked perfectly :) so maybe this guide may help you?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Drzfr3shboialex:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Drzfr3shboialex:
thanks. Good thing my phone came with the old hboot :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] zcivicef:
I rooted mine yesterday using Mr Root. Had minimal problems but those were my mistakes. Also check your bootloader if using 007 works with Mr Root other wise will need the all in 1 tool kit listed in dev section.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
all bootloaders are compaitable with mr root
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Drzfr3shboialex:

[Vega Accessories] RussWWFC:
Generic Case for Android Tablets - it is a 10" for Apad/ePad etc and just has a standard USB lead to connect it to the tablet (sorry, I can't post links

Item number: 320840727651 (on ebay)

Will this work with the Vega, it just connects to a standard USB Port, which I know the Vega has, even though I heard somewhere that I may have to hack the firmware.

I will be doing that anyway, as I want a decent OS

But I have only just ordered my vega, I know Android well through owning a Desire HD, will be my first foray into rooting though, tried it with DHD and gave up - not as easy on a Mac
[Vega Accessories] daedric:
Keep us posted :D
[Vega Accessories] RussWWFC:
I got it and it works great, Vega fits in snugly, but one of the tabs needed cutting to make it so you can have it plugged in in the case. Still nice and solid though

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Monk4Life:
OK, so I have been a member a long time and hardly ever ask questions but this is one I can't seem to figure out so if you know the answer it would be greatly appreciated.

When I first got my GN it updated to 4.0.2 and I started installing my normal apps. I installed zedge and launched it and it must have known what my phone was because it only showed wallpapers that were designed for it. It had about 2k or so high quality ones. I then decided to install AOKP and now zedge doesn't know what my phone is because it shows over 30k wallpapers and they all look like crappy low resolution ones. I have deleted the zedge folder from the phone and uninstalled zedge and tried again and it does the same thing.

I did a nandroid restore back to my stock image and again zedge shows high quality wallpapers. Does any one know what it is that would cause this with AOKP m4?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] helifrek:
Same thing happened to me after switching to teerom from HD revolution. I downloaded a few different wallpaper apps and was able to find some nice HD ones. Its a minor inconvenience when considering the better signal and battery life with teerom. I still wish I could find the superuser wallpaper I had when I first got my gn.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
I'm not sure what would cause it but I think it might have to do with the User Agent string in the AndroidManifest.xml. If you keep the apk from when you are able to only see the high res pics, then you can just reinstall it over. Perhaps titanium backup could do the job. Or you could just pull the apk from /data/apps (net.zedge...) and then place it on your SD card and just install it from there every time you switch roms.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fun498:
Can you restore a backup made on android 2.3.4 /4.5.91 to an atrix with 2.3.6/4.5.141? My Atrix on 2.3.4 had the wifi/bluetooth card burn out and Bestbuy accepted it after I unrooted/pushed the 2.3.6 sbf (so scary on an unlocked bootloader) and they are sending me back a refurbished atrix with 2.3.6. Now I have a Clockworks Nandroid and a backup of my sdcard along with the external sdcard, so my entire phone is saved. Can I restore the backup made on 2.3.4 successfully to my new atrix? Will it return me to 2.3.4? If it is not safe, what is the best way to recover all my data?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nerfman100:
Yes, it would be perfectly safe. :) I'm sure you could even restore a backup from 2.2 if you wanted to XD
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fun498:
Thanks! So will it put me back to 2.3.4? And I remember reading never to install a rom based on 2.3.4 ever again after upgrading. I know a nandroid isn't a ROM, but both contain many of the same files. has anyone done this before?

Edit: Also, I was on the Gingerbread beta ROM.....not official. Is that a problem?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fun498:
Sorry for the double post, but my new Atrix is coming in any day now, and I don't want to brick it. I cannot find ANY info on this subject. Could somebody link me to some kind of direct confirmation that this works?
[Nokia Lumia 800] eblend:
Found this on engadget! YAY!

"If you've poured over the specs of Nokia's Lumia 710 and 800 handsets during the last few months, you've likely noticed the duo's lack of mobile hotspot functionally. Of course, the Finnish phone maker didn't completely abandoned the feature in Windows Phone, as the ability to turn your device into a portable access point will ship with its flagship Lumia 900 and the recently announced 610 at launch. Nokia admitted that the feature would be coming to the 800 months ago, and now Elop & Company have announced that the 710 is also on the shortlist. A recent Q&A post on its Connects blog explained that software updates will be "coming soon" -- by way of Zune update -- to remedy the discrepancy between the old and new. No word on what Nokia's definition of "soon" is, but you can find all the available details at the source link below."
[Nokia Lumia 800] surya467:
yea its been sometime since this was announced, plus panorama, camera effects and later on pureview technology.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Radek Hulán:
Well, "soon" was supposed to happen in January. They are 2 months late already.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Feenik:
Better late than never :) and i think it will be available when newest update hits EU
[Nokia Lumia 800] frenk_91:
The hotspot and the new camera feature probably arrive in April with "Tango" update.
[Nokia Lumia 800] PaullikesWINMO:
I received an update notice today ! When I got home plugged into latptop, fired up Zune. The update took about 10 minutes, but I don't know what the update is? There is no tethering ? I went through all settings and just don't know what this update was.

Edit: the update was this - 7.10.8107.79

only fixes some minor issues, no tethering :(
[Nokia Lumia 800] net.lander:
Is nokia 710 hotspot, tethering or internet sharing available yet? Today is April 21, 2012....still waiting...:confused:
[Nokia Lumia 800] Briefcase:
My guess is that it will come with the 12120 firmware. For the 710 there ar already roms available at navifirm. The 800C (chinese version) also has 12120 fw in the repository as of now.
[Acer Iconia A500] GloriousDJ:
I flashed Lightspeed_4_beta3 after that came out and I finally made the time to try and update to the newest version 4.3 today, but I can't get into recovery, I have Acer Recovery app and I re-installed CWM but it still wont load recovery... any ideas why? and how to fix it?
[Acer Iconia A500] ultramag69:
Go to market and get the app called "Rebooter". It gives the option to boot into recovery, dowload, reboot or power down. This needs root to work though...
[Acer Iconia A500] GloriousDJ:
I know how to boot into recovery, that's not the problem, the problem is it wont load CWM recovery at all, it says loading recovery and it should only take a few seconds but I left it for 5 minutes and still said the same thing.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Welcome to corrupted data. You know how to use ADB? You might be able to push a recovery image, but you'll need to format the devblk first I suspect.

Hope you have a backup copy of your UID number. I think you will probably need it.

I;ll say, go back to stock. Run Timmy Deans tools. It'l put a rooted stock 3.2, then install acer recovery with thor.

In the future, I would install RA Recovery. You can flash it from CWM.
[Acer Iconia A500] GloriousDJ:
I have used ADB for my phone before, I'll look and see if I can push RA Recovery on without going back to stock, because I don't think I have my UID number anymore. Thanks for the idea, I guess I can try that see if I can get it working that way.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I believe Thor has instructions for pushing the CWM image on his site at tegraowners. As now you cannot flash an install.

I also suppose, you might try AcerREcovery from the market, and see if it would flash CWM again. Might be a little easier.
[Acer Iconia A500] GloriousDJ:
Ok I'll try that first. Thanks for your help
[Acer Iconia A500] GloriousDJ:
I got Acer Recovery app to install the RA Recovery and was able to boot into that, for whatever reason thor's wasn't working anymore. Thanks for your help
[Acer Iconia A500] eppeP:
Unless I have misinterpreted something, this should not be that much of a problem. Maybe a bit inconvenient if you don't know USB programming though.

If you can get the device into APX mode it will answer the first read request with the UID.

So if you open the device (955:7820) and initiate a bulk transfer on endpoint 0x81 and you should get 8 bytes that is the UID.

Something like:

#include <libusb-1.0/libusb.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>

int main(void)
{
unsigned char data[64];
int received_length;
int r = 1;
libusb_context* ctx = NULL;
libusb_device_handle* dev_handle = NULL;

libusb_init(&ctx);
dev_handle = libusb_open_device_with_vid_pid(ctx, 0x0955, 0x7820);
if(dev_handle)
{
r = libusb_bulk_transfer(dev_handle, 0x81, data, sizeof(data), &received_length, 10000);
if (r == 0)
{
if(received_length == 8)
{
printf("uid: %#016lx\n", *(uint64_t*)data);
}
else
{
r = 1;
printf("Error: We got %d bytes of data insetad of the 8 bytes we expected...\n", received_length);
}
}
else
{
printf("Error: USB read failed!\n");
}
libusb_release_interface(dev_handle, 0);
}
else
{
printf("Error: Failed to open device!\n");
}
libusb_exit(ctx);
return r;
}

I tried SEVERAL methods including this one http://xdaforums.com/show...2#post23850482 in a thread i just posted.

But still no luck =( Every time i try to boot into recovery mode i get "Recovery verified failed" in read text and it just sits there and wont boot into recovery.

Can someone PLEASE tell me how to fix this or a way to get rid of this error. I dont care if i have to go back to stock i will.

Thanks guys
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
Had you ever flashed the stock ics leak? It sounds like you may have the ics bootloader. Does it say "0.03.11-ICS" in the upper left corner when you boot up? If so, that may be whey thor recovery wasn't booting. (just checking)

Please help....
[Acer Iconia A500] srbeen:
I just did this in ubuntu with no problem. with tablet in APX mode, start an elevated command prompt (Run as admin) then run the EXE file.

it will spit back an error or the UID.

Very simple.
[Acer Iconia A500] eppeP:
Since you write drivers I assume you are using windows.

In that case you want the libusb 0.1 version, the quoted code is for libusb 1.0 which is not available for windows.

Code and a visual studio project can be found here. This thread may be of use as well.

If using Linux (or any other platform for which libusb 1.0 exist) you should be able to build the quoted code as described earlier in this thread.

Hi,

Question why (955:7820) ?? Should we modify it according to our device?
[Acer Iconia A500] eppeP:
0x955 is the USB vendor ID (NVidia)

0x7820 is the USB product ID NVidia chose to use for this device when in APX mode.

I would not expect to see any other combination of vendor/product ID used for an a500 in APX mode.
[Acer Iconia A500] cavagnaro:
Well after struggling a lot with it I got them

As you can see IDs are different

The wrong way. But I've long since fixed that problem as my later posts state. I'm now stuck because even though I don't get any errors, and the A500 seems to respond correctly when I run V8.bat or A500-HC.bat, it still will only boot into APX mode.

[Acer Iconia A500] VoltaGe54:
I have been struggling to determine my CPU ID and would greatly appreciate some help please. I have an acer a501 tablet that boots to an “acer” logo and I am unable to do anything else with it (no S-OFF or root or backup unfortunately).

Using an ubuntu live CD (12.04, amd64) I managed to install all necessary dependencies and compile the code quoted in this thread.

Lsusb reports a device ID of 955:7820, so I can confirm the acer tablet is correctly booted into the apx mode.

Upon running the compiled code the terminal reports back a 17 digit number (0x37c6201400055d7). I have tried on two 64 bit computers and each time it reports the same number. I am attempting to install an EUU rom to bring my tablet back to life and the recovery program and guide require a 15 digit CPU ID.

What am I doing wrong? How do I get the 15 digit CPU ID required? Thanks in advance.

[Acer Iconia A500] :
Hi! is it possible to obtain SBK for 16 bytes instead of 8 with this program? Thanks in advance!
[Acer Iconia A500] eppeP:
This is not giving you the SBK but the UID.

For the Iconia A500 we know the SBK is based on the UID so once we know the UID we can calculate the SBK.

Those calculations expect the UID to be 8 bytes to fit into a 16 character hexadecimal string.

You can not use a 16 byte UID as it would not fit.

You could possibly truncate it and only use 8 out of those 16 bytes.

Do you really have an Iconia A500 giving you a 16 byte UID?

The manufacturer can set the SBK to anything they like, it is very unlikely that they would chose to base it on the UID exactly the same way as for the A500 for anything else.

So if you do not have an Iconia A500 you can probably disregard everything in this thread.
