[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] FloFloIsMyName:
I bought my GIO GT-S5660

I'm not very carefull so I equiped my Gio with screen protector and a nice leather case :D

I search the web for so many "comparative test" et user's feedback for so many phone, and finally I felt in love with the GIO :D Cheap but powerfull, and great design !

It's a white model, because the store made a mistake : I order the black one, and they delivered the white model :eek: But I was too excited about using my new toy, I cannot restisting :D So here I am, White Gio :D Love it !

After two weeks, big jump into rooting my phone (i'm a geek, yeah) and starting to explore the wonderfull wolld of custom roms and kernel. After many test (CM9, CM7, Orange rom, Adrenaline), I'm currently running Cyanogen Mod 7.2.0 For Galaxy GIO. With Adrenaline Engine 2. And SD card (ext4 partition and link2SD combo). Work perfectly !!!

Now, I can enjoy browsing Google Play store and testing a lot (really, so many possibilites) of applications :D

I really enjoy the GIO and I think it's a perfect first smartphone !
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Bagbug:
unique ? Because I paid 59$ (last year!) for it, new and in sealed box, it also came with 10$ prepaid, so I really paid 49$ (no contract).

I bought 3, gave 2 and use mine with Dell voice (free IP phone number, unlimited calls with caller ID and voicemail, http://www.dellvoice.ca/ )

And with CM72, I get excellent battery life and a good performance phone for a 49$.

I still see them at Wal Mart for 150$.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
50 bucks?!

damn thats cheap.

fallen from the truck maybe heheh

gio is a fine device, even worth 150 but for 50 I didnt even think about not buying it
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Bagbug:
and it was last year (august), was a famous deal here in Canada: http://forums.redflagdeals.com/elec...99-99-now-69-99-50k-hbc-bonus-points-1069878/

To make sure I could get one (or 3 :D), I bought them before the sale and got a refund for the difference the day the deal started.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] dikasatrio:
Model Nexus S ..why should i answer this. black color

Accessories (if you have any) black rubber case and some screen protector (yes, the store gave me two or three layers of that)

How you got it or how you bought it (Basicly your story) august 2011, bought online for Rp 1.950.000, or US$207 today. i finally pick gio after months drooling for some secondhand nokias and galaxy mini

Damages and scratches two/three scratches in side metal lid thanks to my gf :p but she bought me the rubber case the next day

i root my gio after just two weeks and never have any problem in changing roms and other modifications ever since. i currently used Enhanced236 rom + adrenaline engine and very happy with the better experience i had with android and especially this device. i'm not thinking of changing nor leaving this thing :angel:
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] FrankyDoodle:
I am abit confused here, what phone do you have?

And if you have a gio 270 dollars is way overpriced.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] dikasatrio:
this is a thread about gio right?

so of course my phone is gio :good:

i dunno, maybe xe.com is wrong or something. but Rp 1950k for a device like gio in my country can be considered cheap :silly:

sorry, its 207. silly me
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Wagierek:
I bought my gio for only 1 PLN (about 0.30 USD) with 24-month contract for 39 PLN (about 11,50 USD) monthly. It was very cheap in fact, because my friend works in Play (a mobile network carrier) and she arranged an employee's contract, which is much cheaper. In normal conditions, it would cost 299PLN for 39 monthly or 1PLN for 59 monthly. Thanks, Asia :)

The phone itself has some distinctive features, for example, it's always in black back case, it has a scratched screen protector and is in perfect condition. Anyone wanna buy? I'm a teenager and I'd like to taste some Android games ;) Got also 8GB memory card and 1,5-year guarantee. Using CM7.2 Apocalypse.

How you got it or how you bought it

i signed with vodafone a promotion for a businnes plan for my father's office, and i had the right to choose a low-end smartphone as a gift. I choosed acer iliquid mini as it was the only android phone offered and i really wanted to try it (i was still on an old s40 symbian nokia). they gave me this gio instead, stock and unbranded ;)

i bricked it after a week playing around with rom manager, but somehow they fixed it in warranty, and got it back couple months later.

Damages and scratches

no visible damages nor scratches, but a couple weeks ago i poured some olive oil over it (-.-) and the sd slot is still filled with oil...

Black or white

Rom, kernel, tweaks etc....

CM9 beta 9 by MaclawStudios, with their kernel, V6 turbocharger scripts

[HTC EVO 3D] ccs86:
Hey guys,

So with the recent hboot downgrade option, it seems like it's finally time to root my virgin 3VO, but I need a little help at least with some big picture stuff.

I know that with the HTC unlock, the device is wiped. By doing the hboot downgrade that doesn't seem to be the case. Is it possible to downgrade hboot, get s-off, unlock and then do a nandroid backup of my current phone setup?

In the downgrade instructions, you are supposed to run revolutionary in the final steps, but I'm fuzzy on what this tool does versus some of the other tools like TWRP2 (htcdumblock?) or HTCSupertoolv3. Could somebody give me a quick rundown on these, and if I will need them?

In the hboot downgrade video I watched, the device has a 2.08 RUU on it, while I have the latest OTA 2.17. Will that cause any issues? I've downloaded both the hbootdowngrade toolkit, as well as RUU_Shooter_S_Sprint_WWE_2.17.651.5_Radio_1.06.00.1216_NV_NV_spcs_1.42_release_233304_signed.exe

I should probably mention my intentions too... I'd like to get a stock backup to revert to (my current config if possible), then try out some ROMs (maybe MeanROM to start) and chad's latest 2.17 kernel.

MUCH appreciated!
[HTC EVO 3D] ccs86:
:: edit :: figured out
[HTC EVO 3D] ccs86:
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
[HTC EVO 3D] ccs86:
Okay, so despite being stuck in a boot loop, apparently the tacoroot temp root was successful. I was able to push the other commands to get mainver: 1.10.651.2

My problem is, that because it wont actually boot, I can't back up my apps with Titanium. Do I have any other options?
[HTC EVO 3D] w0rdOo:
I haven't gone thru this whole downgrade process, I've only done step 3 in order to unbrick my phone from something unrelated, but I know enough to tell you that you're already past the point that you can backup your apps/ROM. You need to keep going thru the instructions for downgrading your hboot til you're completely done and your phone's booted up. If you decided to check the box when you first set your phone up for "keeping this device backed up with Google" (paraphrasing here), then once you set up ANY sense ROM, as long as you have that option enabled as you go thru the setup process, once you click on play store/market, your phone will automatically start downloading all the apps you previously had on your phone.

---------- Post added at 10:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 PM ----------

you have a lot of questions. I'm going out for a bit but if you don't have answers by the time I get back, I can help you with at least a few more of your questions. Also, I'd recommend not posting 5x in a row next time, be patient, someone will eventually help you :)

edit: can't count...
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
I'll try to answer some of your questions, but I'm no pro.

I made a backup right before I downgraded so I didn't lose any info, but it sounds like you're past that point.

Revolutionary will get you "s-off", its the only thing that will give you that, that's the point of downgrading. Dumlock is for hboot 1.5 users. Once you downgrade, you won't need it.

2.17 will be fine, that's what I was on.

At the point you're at, either you can turn back now and run the 2.08, 2.17 ruu.exe from hboot, or if you're not scared, then its time for you to brick.

I suggest getting all your terminals to the "waiting for device" state before you brick. Just so you know that won't be an issue because once you brick there's no turning back.
[HTC EVO 3D] ccs86:
Yeah, part of that was trying to get my 10 posts so I could post in the dev forum :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
My Galaxy S Vibrant had an app available on the app store that you downloaded (for free) and ran it to unlock your handset, I wonder if something like this would work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] AllGamer:
there's no unlocking software for i717

you need to buy the unlocking code from any of those online unlock sites

make sure you find a well reputed one
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] h2s2o8:
If I unlock it will it work in India on 2g and 3g network??

Big Than To Codeworkx and the Cyanogenmod Team

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] juzz86:
It'll work on 2G for sure. What 3G bands does your network use? Hard to answer the 3G part without that information :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sk337sk337:
Appears to be Bharti Cellular which I believe uses 1900 MHz. Could be wrong though.

If your network uses 850/900/1700/1900/2100 MHz (the 1700/2100 come through a radio flash though) then yes you could use the AT&T/Rogers Galaxy note on 3G/2G in India

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] augustomaiden:
Anyone knows about Unlockclient.com?

Hello everyone!!!

I just got my at&t gnote from bestbuy, and doing some research for the unlock, I found a site called unlockclient (dot) com

The process in this case doesn't include a code to do the unlock like other sites. They let you download some software first and after you make the paypal payment, they give you a "pin" that with this program, it resets all the phone codes to zero....

So, it'll be much appreciated if someone knows about them, to post here the opinions that might consider...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] hyelton:
Hmm... SPAM doesnt sound right
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] h2s2o8:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jb0nd38372:
I emailed the developer about his unlock software, he has not had a chance to test anything other than the stock GB rom that ships with our phone. He asked if I would be willing to beta test ICS unlock and I took the bait. As soon as he gets back with me with a pin # I will let you guys know my results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] augustomaiden:
Advice

Hey jb0nd38372, thank you for your interest in the subject... Hope this ends in a positive way for us as new users of this phone...

And by the way, do you recommend me to unlock the device with cellunlocker service or should I wait to unlockclient answer? (Note that I still haven't rooted the phone):confused:

Hi.. I have been trying to unlock the sgh i717 without paying .. No luck so far.. But i did come across a file "samsung unlock calculator v 0.9" but i m unable to download it. I was reading the comments on the site whr the file is located and it seems ppl are very pleased with the results. Can anyone download it and post it here since it requires some stupid survey to b completed first and thn the download will tk place. My problem is i live in dubai and all the stupid surveys are not available in this country. Pls help!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nidhindhanraj:
any method via usb? atleast a website that cost below $25 unlock for the note?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drastic61:
Just called att Im using the note on prepaid. The rep said that the phone is unlockable but i have to wait and that sometime from july-december for them to have the codes available for my phone. Kind of bummed because i won my note at work and att typically just needs proof of purchase to unlock the device......

I'm getting same problem today. First happened with Galaxy S (a friends phone) , I was getting "Server Error - Retry". I updated manually to latest google play store and still the same problem.

Next it happened on my HD2. I flashed the phone today with NexusHD2-Gingerbread V3.2 and after setting up my phone, I tried to open market but it gives me same error.

Anyone has any idea?

BTW if I open Play store from web page it loads fine, but if I try to install something from there, it gives me Your Account isn't linked to any android phone.

Strange.

Edit: I fixed the issue by using market enabler and faking my provider.

I think this error could be country related.

I've just received a second hand Droid Bionic and it came with Liberty 2.0 still on 5.5.886. I want to upgrade to 902 and I tried using the 902 pathsaver here (http://www.droidhive.com/forums/index.php?/topic/87-902-bionic-pathsaver-for-windowslinuxmac) but it seems that the necessary FXZ file has been taken down. I've tried to look for it but the few pages that I found all lead to the same fileserve page which says that the file has been taken down...

I need the file "VRZ_XT875_5.9.902.XT875.Verizon.en.US_CFC_01.xml.zip". It seems to be the first step in the 902 pathsaver process and I can't seem to find it. Does anyone still have this file?

I plan to use the 902 pathsaver to shoot be directly to 5.9.902 and root it at the same time. Then I install safestrap and will probably use Eclipse or Liberty. I'm stuck at the first step... :confused:

You will see it under full 902 fxz towards the bottom of the thread

You can make your process easier too...by just using RSDlite with the full 902 fxz then root with motofail by Dan Rosenberg.

You can upload to dropbox from your phone with either the dropbox app, or es file explorer does it also. I prefer es. I'm always uploading and downloading things to dropbox.
[Nexus S General] Nuclear_Geko:
Hi everybody,

this is a little provocation with no "evil inside" :)

I'm trying some ROMs on my Nexus S in these months and I'm not a developer even if I work in the IT.

I've thought that Google is paying developers to find bugs/security risks in Chrome, and that's really good, but I've asked myself: why not doing the same with the modders?

I mean: there are a lot of developers here; sure there are the ones that are good and the ones that are less good but I'm experimenting "on my skin" many mods and many ideas. I think there's a strong will to improve in here and you can see it through the effort and the dedition that everyone is putting in this forum... so why don't encourage it? Why don't take what's useful and pay who worked hard to achieve it?

Wouldn't be advantaging Google as well and make the prize ($$$) a motivation for developers?

These guys can sometimes break the Google's schemas of developement and can come up with something new!

For example: I have CNA Android with kernel AIR 3.6 (65 fps).

It's smoother and faster than a brand new Galaxy Nexus!!! :confused:

Now: I'd like to have a better battery life and from SmartAssV2+Noop (deepIDLE) I've turned to Lazy+Deadline (deepIDLE + Max off screen freq).

That's a little slower but it's fine... tried the Supercharged MOD and... O_O... omg, I have the best user experience since I've bought my phone!!!

The next thing I was thinking: why do not inherit all those improvements if supportable?

What do you guys think? =)
