[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgalobla:
I was trying to go into recovery mode through ROM Manager.

After restarting phone is in recovery mode and between yellow texts is says in RED: multiscs : can not access to /system/csc/ser/system/

I'm not able to put phone into download mode.

what can I do?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Sound like bad CWM, probably because you are using Rom Manager. Flash a kernel with CWM baked in and forget about rom manager.
[HTC One X] frostywinter:
Picked up my unlocked White HTC One X here at a local phone shop in Melbourne Australia today for $668 Aust.

Loving it so far, beautiful screen and resolution and overall feel is very solid and premium.

The Sony Xperia S will be getting sold!

Ask any questions you would like to know answers to and I will do my best to respond..
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
Congrats mate :)

Only thing white specific I'm interested in is how easy cleaning the back of the phone is from hand oils, dirt, marks, etc. Someone on youtube shows a pen coming off okay, but don't worry, I won't ask you to test that :P

Hope the UK retailers get their act in gear and we aren't waiting till estimates like the 10th-12th for Phone.
[HTC One X] zerozoneice:
here's a few things you can test mate, i'd appreciate the response:

- take a 720p and 1080p video and check what bitrate it's recorded at

- take some normal and HDR shots of the same thing and post them

- take a panorama (they supposedly increased the dimensions) and post it

- run a quadrant, antutu, stuff like that and post results

thanks!
[HTC One X] frostywinter:
Well bit early to tell yet (only 2 hours old) but the back of the phone doesn't show any finger prints etc so far and looks like it will wipe clean easily ..

Yeah I might skip writing on it yet ;)
[HTC One X] frostywinter:
Will do some photos, vids tomorrow - its night time here now

Quadrant Results below:

Overall - 4852

CPU - 13072

MEM - 3302

I/O - 4452

2D - 1000

3D - 2433

;)
[HTC One X] robt772000:
What! Where did you get it?
[HTC One X] zerozoneice:
thanks, you can take a photo and video in low light too you know :)

show off that f2.0 lens
[HTC One X] frostywinter:
Allphones - they have lots of kiosk shops at various shopping centres.

Got mine at Knox City (Melbourne) ;)
[HTC One X] raimondomartire:
Can you test signal strenght compare with another your phone?
[HTC One X] frostywinter:
Seems pretty much the same sofar - is there a way to better measure this?
[HTC One X] kelvinyap9:
Currently got my eyes stuck on the HTC One X at the moment (I'm from Perth, Australia).

Would be awesome if we could get a black/grey one here in Australia, but not a BIG problem (I just dislike anything glossy, to be honest, and the rim around the grey's camera is matte).

Anyway, will see what SGS3 has to offer before I pick between that and the HTC One X.

Looking VERY promising and I'm really excited! :)
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
I too was gonna wait til the sgs3, but after the terrible ICS update for the SGS2, im going for a complete overhaul.

I've never owned an HTC phone, & never owned a white phone - so, why not. :)
[HTC One X] kelvinyap9:
I'm going to give it a chance anyway, since there IS a reason why the SGS2 was king of Android for quite awhile there!

And besides, I'll most likely root the phone and install a custom ROM anyway :D
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
That's cool, I'm not a fanboy for any manufacturer or device & don't disregard anyone's opinion.

but SGS2 is still Samsung's flagship device, ICS is its first update to a new android & I cannot believe how poor ICS is for this device.

The design is very poor, it feels nothing like ICS.

It's really laggy & slow compared to the excellent gingerbread rom that samsung developed.

It completely ruined my confidence in Samsung's software development team & forced me to go elsewhere - maybe in the future samsung will improve its software, but for now - i want a change.

Never owned an HTC device before, never used sense & never owned a white phone before, so this is gonna feel completely fresh & new to me - excited!

I predict the sgs3 would have the same 'feel' as SGS2 but faster with better specs, & its this feel I wanted a change from. (not because it's a bad feeling, but I certainly want to feel like I have a new phone, a new experience & new software)

Good luck with your decision making ;)
[HTC One X] kelvinyap9:
Definitely! I'm basically just looking at what both has to offer rather than sort of risk jumping into the HTC One X pool then having to come out again when the SGS3 is significantly better.

In other words, I'm looking at which has better features for me personally, since I assume they'll both be in the same price range anyway.

I will certainly have fun doing this >:D
[HTC One X] frostywinter:
Just a quick update on my brand new One X re battery - it dropped 6% over night (11pm to 7am) this was with the smart sync enabled.

[HTC One X] zanbay:
Hey

My friend, first of all enjoy your new super toy :). Would you please tell me how is the loudspeaker volume level?. Cuz I hate HTC's speakers and ringtones volume levels...Is it prety loud? On monday I m planning to buy in Istanbul. Peace :)
[HTC One X] frostywinter:
Loudspeaker volume is great - no problems at all.
[HTC One X] fredaroony:
I just bought mine for $599 from Telechoice :) Was surprised it was so cheap.
[HTC One X] shure2:
That's very cheap, hopefully they have them in Perth when I come over next month
[HTC One X] pckh12:
Which telechoice did you get it from?
[HTC One X] fredaroony:
---------- Post added at 05:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------

Umm I did get it from Telechoice for $599 but I can see the posters on Whirlpool don't believe me.

Oh well, I have a permanent ban on that site so what can you do...

To dannyboi, not sure if it was a shop special as I simply called them as they were the closest to my area.

To magel282, it is not a mistake at all but as soon as I heard the price on the phone I was down to the shop within 30 mins to pick it up just in case :)
[HTC One X] GolfCranK:
Once again and just out of interest: Which Telechoice store?
[HTC One X] fredaroony:
I named the store until I found posters from Whirlpool saw this thread, they can thank the mods for me removing the store name.

It's in Sydney so not close to you. I dont know if it was a mistake on the shops behalf but maybe try calling around to your local stores to see what they are doing it for.
[HTC One X] aussie1234:
Store

If it's any help Allphones are selling unlocked models for $668. I bought mine from an Allphones store in Adelaide metro. They only had one left but other stores had some.

I rang the Adelaide store but they said it was only available through a plan - which is incorrect.

If you have no luck with one, try another store.

Cheers

Oh and note: this phone only takes a microSim. I have a standard sim so have to order new sim card.

Aussie
[HTC One X] GolfCranK:
Thanks. I did the math and recontracted with Optus. They wiped my last four months plus gave me three months free ona 24 month contract. I am sure I could have done better waiting and jumping around but sometimes it just uses a lot of time and energy for a small saving.
[HTC One X] Aust S5:
Download a template PDF from google. Cut your own sim smaller. Did it today all fine.
[HTC One X] fredaroony:
Attached is the invoice for $599 plus a little surprise for my friends at Whirlpool :)
[HTC One X] escorpse:
any of u guys got a widget list with the unlocked optus one? my widget list is empty and can not seem to find how to get any to show
[HTC One X] 777ace:
Just checked Telechoice. Says $677. Not that I am going against you fred, just hoped to score the same deal as you...

Is your phone branded??

I'm thinking I might go with mobicity. A little dearer, but they have grey/black, as well as white, and all unbranded...
[HTC One X] fredaroony:
Yes it's Optus branded but in software only so has no markings on the phone itself.

I dont know why this shop gave it to me for $599 but I simply called and asked if they had any instock and went from there.

I would have preferred grey myself but the white is quite nice and you get a real warranty too.
[HTC One X] 777ace:
^^ Yeah, warranty is a good point...except, my phone will be rooted as soon as it's possible to do so, so warranty means little to me. Mobicity do offer warranty, btw.

A bit disappointing that there is only white available through Optarse, though...I do like the white, a lot!, but I think it might look pretty ordinary in 12 months or so.

Looks like you snared a rare score there mate. You may have the cheapest OneX in all the land...I'd say someone stuffed up on GST/margin mark up and is probably now begging for bread at Circular Quay as I type this, lol.
[HTC One X] fredaroony:
Rooting wont void the warranty as long as you can put it back to the way it came. Dont worry about the Optus thing as once it's rooted you would never know. Doesnt even say Optus on the box or anything.

All the phones seems to the same no matter where you get it from i.e. Allphones, telechoice or Optus. I think Vodafone might have some difference with coming with Beats headphones.
[HTC One X] Huey85:
Picked mine up from Collins st Optus store on an early upgrade (4 months remaining on contract - early upgrade fee reduced to $150 over 3 months). Needed an early upgrade so I could give my RAZR to the missus who has been nagging me about her crappy Blackberry for months. Absolutely love this baby.
[HTC One X] 777ace:
Again, all true, but the main issue is that no-one in Oz has black...pretty piss-poor, imo. Were it not for that fact, I'd walk into nearest store (Optarse et al) today and buy one...
[HTC One X] fredaroony:
I agree but I have to say the white has grown on me and I dont usually like white phones. Perhaps since most of the front of the phone is black because of the screen is doesnt look as bad.

Having said that, I might get pissed off when I finally see the black one in person and I'm stuck with a white one :)
[HTC One X] Repsys7:
Really disappointed its not coming with Beats, I thought that was meant to be a big thing about it?
[HTC One X] 777ace:
Lol, agree again! Truly, I just want to go out and buy one of these, NOW, but I am making myself wait until the black is available. Mind you, who's to say I won't wish I had white when I get the black?? Sigh...first world dilemmas!!

You and many, many others mate! :D

Seems only a few countries/regions will get the Beats cans, while the rest of us need to supply our own. Pretty slack, if you ask me.
[HTC One X] fredaroony:
Just order a white one from Allphones for $668 and be done with it. You will be much happier :)
[HTC One X] 777ace:
He he, I'm actually going to visit Optarse in a minute and have a look at the white...just to be sure I don't like it, lol.

I have to add, since I am in Cairns, cheapest here is $717 :( Even if I go online, from AllPhones etc, I'll need to add postage, so basically $700 anyway...
[HTC One X] globalgpj:
Just got mine this morning from Vodafone.....12month plan at 59 a month plus 15 a month for the phone....totol commitment is 888.

59.00 gives me unlimted sms, 1.5gb data and 750.00 worth of calls...

After that, I'll back to Live connected as I get almost the same deal for 15.99 a month, through Live Connected www.liveconnected.com.au , they use Optus.

What a great phone HTC One X :)

Yep, LiveConnected ftw! :) I'm on same $14.99 deal.

Went to Optus store, but they only had plastic dummy phone and wouldn't let me look at a real one...their loss. Black is still looking the go...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lar5:
After I updated my (unrooeted/locked) Nexus S (9023) to 4.0.3 I wanted to try the 4.0.4 upgrade. After the 4.0.3 the recovery mode lost the backlight, so I figured the it was a good time to root.

I tried this one-click script to unlock. It worked and I installed CWMR and flashed the 4.0.4 upgrade. After a reboot the phone had ICS 4.0.4 and got root.

But not all is working. I lost the ability to get into the bootloader by pressing 'vol down.' & 'power'. The phone just starts normally.

The only way I can get into the bootloader, is to "reboot to bootloader" from a command line. If I choose recovery, I get a picture of an android at its back with a red ! (2105.dk/temp/img_1161.jpg). After two minutes it automatically reboots. What has gone wrong? What does it mean? And how can I fix it?

I'm new at this, so i'm out of ideas
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomnow:
try Vol up + power
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lar5:
Ahhh... now i'm feeling a bit stupid :D

Okay, i'm able to get into the bootloader, but the problem with the recovery still remains. (what does the picture mean? - 2105.dk/temp/img_1161.jpg)

I've tried both CWRM and TWRP. They seems to flash with no errors, but i still can not get them started from the bootloader (fastboot mode?).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csrxds:
Not sure if it's what you are looking for since I can't see the picture you are talking about but I think it's the recovery "security" screen. When you are there press power first and maintain it to press vol up, you should now be into the recovery...

Also remember stock rom has a script that overwrites any custom recovery with stock recovery each time the rom loads.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lar5:
Yes, pressing [power] + [vol. up] at the recovery "security/error" screen, starts up a recovery.

I also didn't knew that the stock ROM overwrites the recovery. I never seen it mentioned any where else.

Thanks for the hints;).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lar5:
Okay, after learning how the stock OS trying to reinstall stock recovery, I managed to rename /etc/install-recovery.sh to *.bak

Now the stock recovery stays away, and CWM recovery stays on permanent.

Also, the error screen doesn't show up any more. (never found out what it means)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] adityam533:
I bring you DSP-Manager 2.35. Thisone works on stock and custom ROMs (thoroughly tested). Unlike the ones already posted in the SGf thread, the sound remains consistent (does not suddenly go up, causing destruction of your earbuds).

Oh, and it works with stock music player as well.

For music afficionados, this one is for you. For that deep bass thumping sound, just enable compression (moderate), bass boost (moderate), equalizer (rock) and Virtual Room (large room is nice).Credits to the original creators (I need not mention them)

And finally,

the update script:

dsp-manager235-signed.zip

Just flash it with stock recovery or CWM.

It works both ways

Enjoy!

press thanx if i helped....

[LG Thrill 4G] xterminater07:
HOpefully they give source code for 2.3.6 which fixes most issue :)
[LG Thrill 4G] jznomoney:
2.3.6 is the Android version not the kernel version two separate things. I am looking for the v20p kernel source to see what lg changed so I can get a working cyanogenmod build with the baseband. You'll never get the 2.3.6 source lg does not have to release that.
[LG Thrill 4G] Kaleptik:
Apparently LG found the issue and will be releasing a fix for ghost calls in April.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S II w/ CM9
[LG Thrill 4G] jznomoney:
sweet, but like I said in the previous post the kernel is separate from the android version. The kernel is 2.6.35 which has nothing to do with the android version of 2.3.6.
[LG Thrill 4G] xstokerx:
here the link its up if you guys wanna grab it its for v20p

BTW, i extracted the function from Archos loader setup up PLL and MPU stuff.

Need some time to extract the stock setup for PLL at early stage.

Maybe this will give some answers.

One of my next plans is, to build some kind of bare bone kernel (console only), which may be used for recovery and debug purpose.

Maybe this gives it a kick and things start up to a login shell :p

TBC

Have fun!

scholbert
[Gen8 General] scholbert:
Seems like an internal monologue... but i like to point out that i stopped this project for a while.

So don't expect anything like a brick recovery tool or similar.

If others will join in it might be possible that it would led to something,

but as long as no one even starts hacking the hardware this is just for me...

Happy days!

scholbert
[Gen8 General] divx118:
Shame you stopped your efforts for now, I always followed your posts with much interest. However I can understand it is frustrating being on your own.

Thanks for what you did this far and for posting your info :).

divx118
[Gen8 General] grim-a101:
Sorry to read that, this was a very very interesting reading.

But I don't have the knowledge to make the necessary hardware hack, and above all, my wife would kill me if she saw me opening the tab :D

Thanks again for all that amazing information scholbert
[Gen8 General] scholbert:
Hey,

first off all thanks for your interest and your replies :D

Some words on your comments though...

I did not want to sound frustrated, because i'm not.

All i do with the device and all that hacking stuff is fun and mostly for educational purpose :p

Maybe i'll continue working with this stuff, but for now i wanted to point out to not expect too much.

Some guys out there, bricked their devices and were looking for a solution.

That's why i wrote it down.

Basically it should be possible to recover bricks by using external boot procedure, but it's still far from a simple solution.

Yeah that's a good point, the barrier for this kind of hacking is little high.

Unfortunately you'll have to tweak the hardware, to gain access to the serial debugging port and cheat the power management of the MicroSD slot.

Most of you simply want to use the device and do some less harder tweaks at system level.

Anyway, there are some other possibilities as well (e.g. using USB and TI Flash) to access the platform. Maybe i'll do some research here as well.

Thanks again for appreciation!!!

Regards,

scholbert
[General Questions and Answers] Master Melab:
I have a Droid 2 Global. When I kill a bunch of apps, they just restart themselves a bit later. How do I stop this from happening?
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
Uninstall them or freeze, but either way they will no longer work then.

If they restart themself, then thats the way they have been programmed, by constantly killing them you disturb their natural behavior and should not be suprised if they malfunction.
[General Questions and Answers] codlike:
.........and use titanium backup to freeze them.

its a bit of a pain, but like with skype, with no exit app option and its constant drain on the battery,and which rises from the dead about 20 minutes after youve killed it, its the only way to keep it quiet. that and for ages in android, its really bad to keep killing processes, it just slows your phone down as they restart and drains your battery quicker.
[General Questions and Answers] mirsadu76:
It depends... if those are system apps, they're ment to autostart. I use titanium backup to freeze them. Freezing is the best choice. If you freeze an app and the system is stable, you can remove it later.
