Hi guys, I have successfully loaded my HD2 with ICS 4.0.3 and all works good except I can't find a way of powering it off completely. The OS is on the SD card.

Using the end call button (which worked on Win 6.5) simply gives an option to turn on Airplane mode.

Some ROMs don't have this working. Check to see what ROM your using and if its listed in the not working section of the details. When

the ROM has this problem they normally include a app built in so that you can turn your phone on and off. Look for quickreboot or

something that says power.. in your app drawer.

I have a x8 unlocked bootloader and rooted .

I have already download the stock kernel .ftf file and flashed it using flashtool for my xperia x8 which is running xperience walkman mod 1.0 but it was no luck ... i tried to flash stock rom first but cwm would not flash it

i did tried to flash the kernel but i boot up it will just stuck at the sony ericsson logo and i am unable to enter recovery ..

Can anyone help me?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsaklein:
Flash stock kernel and use seus
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saipro:
To the best of my knowledge, you can flash kernels only via flashtool. CWM won't help. And the kernel .ftf file must have a loader.sin in addition to a kernel.sin when viewed via flashtool.

I remember a day I flashed my X8 37 times within 24hours! At times, it would get temperamental & fail to boot beyond the SE logo screen for reasons it alone knows. Cheer up. And get flashing!
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superng888:
Hmmm... i dont want to use SEUS because by then i would have to reroot and even unlock bootloader again :confused: i tried couple of times to flash the stock kernel but my phone just stuck at the se logo
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saintckk:
Which kernel are you tried to flash? You can use flashtool to flash your kernel, and install ROM with CWM! If you are flashing aNa kernel, CWM is already built-in. If you still struck at SE logo, mean your kernel is not flash yet.

Well, there's actually still ADB but it carries a certain amount of risk. With flashtool, most of that is obviated. If you need more information, scout the Android Development section for related topics.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdhscanes24:
So I dropped my phone today and cracked the screen. Already made the claim, listed a major crack or multiple cracks, blah blah blah.

What I'm wondering is this: Since it's obviously hardware damage and in no way linked to software, should I even worry about flashing back to stock before I send it in? If so would it not be just as easy, and in a sick/twisted way fulfilling, to just render the screen completely unusable after I activate the replacement? I'm thinking as long as the screen is inoperable they won't even worry about firmware/modem/etc, but wonder if that's just me being naive.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
Asurion could care less if it's rooted/ROM'd, etc... It's not their job to care. Even if the damage to the phone was caused by rooting, like a hard brick or something, they would still replace it. It's incidental damage, which is what they cover.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdhscanes24:
You are the man. I figured as much, just wanted the highly regarded opinion of some XDA members :D. Anyways, thanks for the quick reply.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rpnunez:
_MetalHead_ is correct, I recently cracked a E4GT just like you and it was rooted.

Asurion does not care, send it in.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdhscanes24:
Thanks for the additional input.

So really the only people who would care are the service techs if its a software problem or some issue they can write off on rooting? I know it voids your warranty, but who if anyone would care at all?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elephant007:
This is some good information to know just in case this exact circumstance may happen to others. I thought there was an FCC rule stating that rooting/jailbreaking a phone was allowable?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhgti:
Dude if you a bit technical, you can swap the lcd and send back the refurbish mother board back to them with the crack screen, unles you are having sw issues or you have them send the device activated already, then just keep the refurbish unit
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdhscanes24:
I remember hearing the buzz

about this when it was fresh, albeit the exact details are eluding me. Anyways, the legality of rooting is no longer in question when you sign that 2-year contract. Yes you are in the legal clear to root, but the contract states clearly that rooting will void your warranty

I don't doubt for a second the possibility of doing so, however I've yet to have an issue with a refurbished phone. Yes I'll have to reroot, relocate my data, etc. but I'm sure all of that will take a fraction of the time it'll take me to swap out screens. Although I do see some of the perks for those that are far more technologically inclined, as you're basically refurbing your own phone. But for $100 I expect to get more than just a new screen. These scratches are just plain ugly all around the bezel and on the battery door.

Thanks for the advice though, just because it isn't right for me doesn't mean someone else won't find it useful in some way, shape or form.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhgti:
No problem I had so refurbish issues before, so I try to go that route

ICS E4GT
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdhscanes24:
So my next thought is if by some chance I brick the phone before I send it back, will that have any affect in itself? I'm debating on using my 10 day window to see if by flashing from ICS to GB to see if there's any information I can find to share with our devs as to what's bricking everybody. That is, only if there is any actual information that that could provide. If not I'll just let this horse die and just migrate to the next handset quietly.

Obviously if I could I'd just donate the phone to one of you guys as a spare to try tinkering with, but Asurion takes insurance fraud quite personally from what their site says
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
You can brick it, submerge it in water, drive over it with your Hummer H1, toss it out a 10 story window, microwave it, urinate all over it and then send it back to them and it would make no difference.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdhscanes24:
Gotcha, as long as they get the phone they could care less about its actual condition.

Now would it even be helpful to flash back and forth grabbing logcats along the way or is it pretty much at a point where only source will help?

I'd like to contribute some how, figured maybe that could be my start.

[HTC Amaze 4G] ctweber:
So my work enabled a set of security policies on ur exchange server requiring me to activate phone lock with a pin number. This is really a pain but I can live with it. The real issue is that now pressing the camera hot button on the side of the phone takes me to an unlock screen rather than straight to the camera.

Anyone have any ideas on how I can bypass the pin number for use of camera/video camera?

Thanks for your help
[HTC Amaze 4G] zPacKRat:
I believe your stuck with the lock screen, there used to be an app to bypass the Exchange security policy on sense, however it does not work on newer versions. Odd thing is thy my LG Optimus T does not enforce the lock screen, but ruu,s from different countries do.
[Motorola Photon 4G] booyakasha:
Was running CM9 and wanted to switch it up, so I downloaded MIUI from my dropbox. That set off a string of ClockworkMod Recovery updates and automatic flashes and reboots. Now I think I'm screwed. When I boot up, it just sits at the Motorola logo with Unlocked at the top corner.

Luckily I did a NAND backup before doing all this (something I usually never do because I'm an overconfident flasher), but now when I try to restore I get the error saying "can't mount /system!"

I'm on ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.8, can't get the SD card to mount either.

Am I screwed? :(
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Try 5.0.2.7 recovery.
[Motorola Photon 4G] booyakasha:
If I can't mount my SD, or boot the phone up, how can I do this?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
hey everyone. so if i partition the internal sd card what exactly am i doing? from what i understand, the g2x has 8gb onboard, 1.5 of that is for apps, and 5 goes to user data. the rest i assume is for android?

so if i create a 2gb partition on the internal sd, what am i changing and what does it do to the rest of the space? do i need to create the other partitions in windows later and format them?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
168 views and no replies? anyone??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Klathmon:
Ok, let me try to explain this one...

In three words, Don't Do It!!!

Your internal sd card is pretty much just that, it's a storage card built onto the phone itself. Now it is already partitioned, and allot!

Not only does this one physical card hold your "internal sd card" contents but it also holds your ROM, cache, all your apps, and even your recovery!

Even though it looks like these are separate drives they are all one physical card, your internal sd card.

Now if you try to add to this mix of partitions on this internal card you run the VERY HIGH risk of messing up the lines and sizes of these partitions. Many things in Android assume that some of these are a certain size or at a certain place, and if you mess with it all hell brakes lose!

Now people sometimes partition the external sd card because they want 2 different file types, like half fat32 (like a normal sd card) and half ext4/3 for apps it use in Linux.

Hope this helps!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
ok, well then i guess my question is more along the lines of why do we have that option in CWM Recovery and if i create a 2gb partition what happens? does it change the default 1.5gb partition so you have more room for apps?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Klathmon:
I'm honestly not sure, I've only ever messed with these partitions manually when unbricking my phone. So if you do it, you have a fairly good chance of bricking the phone, but i don't know how Android will react.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
thanks, i was just curious, since CWM gives us the option, but ive never done it and until i can find a good reason to i probably won't even mess with it

but it just seems kind of bad having 5gb on the internal card going to waste, i have backups to my external sd, all my data is there too, so i probably won't even touch that 5gb...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Klathmon:
Just be glad it's not the other way around :)

Ill take too much space over not enough any day!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
well true, but still would like to know exactly what happens if you choose to run that in CWM Recovery
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
seek and ye shall find

found a guide for CWM and from what i see that option puts a partition on your external sd card so it can be used to install apps on IF the rom supports that. it says it does wipe everything else off the card though so you need to make a backup. you can also put a swap partition on it as well

looks like it does not touch the internal sd card phone memory which is what i thought it did

[Trophy General] Peperm1nt:
I'm wanting to try and get the HTC Trophy, and wanted to get some thoughts from you guys. I apologize if this is already started, but I couldn't find it... Anyway:

-Is Google lacking from WP7?

As in, can I integrate my Google Account with WP7 as in use my gmail for Email, Google Music as media store, etc... What would the limits of that be?

-Is the HTC Trophy a good/reliable device?

I played with one at the Verizon store and I loved it, but I never used it beyond tinkering around to check it out. Does the phone keep a consistent service and good network speeds? Should I wait for the next WP7 device to come to Verizon?

-Camera?

I use my x2 as a personal camera, It has 8 MP and can record 720p video. That sounds good, but truth be told, the Video recorder SUX and the only way to get 720p is to put CM7 on it(and we just got that ROM like in January; 8 months after the release of the x2) and it is still a little buggy. The Camera however is pretty nice, I like it a lot anyway.... How does the Trophy Perform in the Camera area?

-Market Apps?

Is there a decent amount of games and market apps available for WP7? All that would really matter to me is a few key apps that I use on a regular basis; one of which is Evernote. I use this as my lyric notebook for my music that I write for when I'm on the road or away from a notepad, I can use my phone to jot down a few lines of a song or try to complete a song when I get spare time. YouTube.. I think I saw this on the phone by default but can't quite remember. And just a good assortment of games. Also, is the paid/free apps a good combination and not ridiculous prices? Android offers a great combination of free and paid, on the iPhone, the only thing I see that is decent is like 4+ dollars so just wondering on what the users feel about the market?

-Rooting?

Is the development pretty spiffy with the HTC Trophy? Android offers Rooting and I see something like HSPC or w/e for WP7. What exactly is this and what would the benefits be if I tried to do this?

-Overall opinions?

For those that came from Android can you let me know what the biggest 'let-go' you had to take? and just an overall opinion of your satisfaction with WP7.

I thank anyone that would answer these. If anyone knows of someone that would want to sell the HTC Trophy or trade for a Droid x2, would you please PM me or post on here. I'm a contributor for the Droid x2 and many users can vouch for me in the Droid x2 area of XDA. My ROM is headlined on DroidForums.net in their forum area for the x2 and it is also here on XDA(which is where it is mainly supported).

Again, Thank you for your time,

Peperm1nt
[Trophy General] Peperm1nt:

Unfortunately no, I know no one that wants to trade. I know I have mine, and I am keeping it close. lol
[Trophy General] Peperm1nt:
Lol its fine,i get paid monday, probable going to get one on ebay.

Forgot to ask this in the op:

Battery Life:

I use my x2 throughout the day moderately...one full charge gives me 8 to 15 hours of battery life. I disconnect the auto sync and try my best to increase battery life, but the display DRAINS the life horribly...like 1 hour of display will put the phone to 10 % or lower. What are the thoughts on that?

Development:

I develop for android. What is the developm went like on wp7?

Tapin' the Talk on the xSquared
[Trophy General] TheXev:
The Trophy produces similar battery results for me, but I charge it everyday and I live in a fringe region. I turned on Mango's battery savor feature when the power is low, but I haven't really been able to use it yet.
[Trophy General] bman212121:
Battery life on the Trophy is okay... You should be able to make it through the day no problems with moderate usage. If you're on the edge or frequently go out of service the phone will drain very quickly. On the flip side there are days where I rarely use the phone, and with the stock battery it will go almost 3 days with no usage.

One thing that I found out is that the EVO / ERIS battery is almost the same... It fits in the phone and the phone will use it, but the back cover won't snap on correctly. If you were looking for a larger battery the first thing you'll need is an extended battery cover. Also, the snaps for the regular trophy and Verizon are slightly different which makes it even harder to find the cover. I think you can just break a few of them off and it will fit.

The camera is okay but it's definitely nothing special. If you have good light and still shots it will produce a decent image. It's about on par with the D2 which I think is slightly worse than the X2.

The one thing that I'm kind of missing is a few networks apps. There really isn't a good app to do things like ping, wifi scanning, or speed tests. Since there is no flash you can't just load up speedtest.net in the browser.

For music I would say that using Zune works fairly well. It loads the songs very quickly over wifi, and if you had it setup to sync automatically you should be able to just put songs into the folder and the phone will download them whenever you're at home.

Youtube is not officially supported but at one time there was an HTC Youtube app but I think they had to pull it from the market. It looks like there is an app called youtube pro that gets good reviews and is free. The nice thing about the marketplace is that there are a lot of decent free games and apps like there is on android, but there are also trials of paid apps so you can try it before you decide to purchase.

My overall satisfaction with the phone is pretty high. It's definitely a step up from a D2. Just using it for simple tasks it performs a lot better although there are still some gotchas that you might have to work around. (If you use skydrive putting documents on the phone is easy, if you don't want to use skydrive then it becomes a lot harder)
[Trophy General] TheXev:
That's odd.. my Eris and Touch Pro2 batteries are identical in size and fit... but neither are hi-capacity.

[Trophy General] TheXev:
Awesome. I hope it works well for you. Poke around the dev forum for guides on HSPL for SparkW...

I will soon be writing a guide to keeping the newest (Mango V2) radio while still retaining HSPL. I will probably be adding it to my radio guide sometime today/this weekend. I need to upload some files/roms that will be needed to make it work.

Also, a word of warning, do NOT install any updates via Zune!!! I recently discovered when performing the Zune upgrades that the Mango V2 drivers might disable the availability to flash roms the normal way, and force using the GoldCard method (which I will add to my HSPL guide soon enough).
[Trophy General] Peperm1nt:
Thanks for the heads up.

In android we can sbf to fix bootloops and make our phone stock for warranties and such. Also to get on specific kernels or android versions. How exactly does wp7 do this or is there an option? Also HTC has unlocked bootloaders in android. Is it the same here... most of this will probably get answered when I get the phone. Just wanting to get a start in the right direction.. again, thank you for the help.

Tapin' the Talk on the xSquared
[Trophy General] TheXev:
My HSPL guide covers returning to stock at the end. It involves loading the bootloader and running DFT's unlocker tool, but flashing the OSPL (Original SPL). You then flash the factory rom as I have outlined.
