It's not like I accused you of that. You told him to stick to power chords. He clearly doesn't need to.
[Off-topic] anuraagkochar:
No need to fight here guys.I appreciate all your comments Please give me more suggestions about how should i improve my chords and solo.

Thanks
[Off-topic] iynfynity:
You used overdrive/distortion in your videos, I'd suggest stop doing that while practicing and use a clean sound for now.

Learn how to play songs like this instead of doing those power chords.

[Off-topic] TravisBean:
2 months is such a short time, and I think it's a bit premature to be posting youtube vids and asking people what they think. But it really doesn't hurt either. Personally I think you should learn basic chords on an acoustic guitar, get a real feel for the instrument, and then switch to electric after about a year.
[Off-topic] anuraagkochar:
Could someone tell some clean songs which i should play ?

Like boulevards of broken dreams

Some soft songs
[Off-topic] prezervativ:
why are basic chords important? i played guitar for some time and i still don't know basic chords and i don't think i'll ever need to

@anuraagkochar, a fun tune to play is the tune in these first 50 seconds of this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXxuXz7pU-4
[Off-topic] TravisBean:
99% of the people I know, including myself, started out playing guitar by learning basic chords. If you study jazz, classical, or rock guitar, your first lessons will be comprised of learning the names of the strings, some simple one note at a time melodies, and basic chords. However, if you've discovered a different approach to learning the basics, more power to you. It's always interesting to approach the learning process from a different perspective, because so many people play guitar these days, and I appreciate a different "take" which can lead to genuine originality.

Having said that, I still agree with iynfynity :
[HTC One X] flaca20:
Hi, I've just ordered a One X as an upgrade directly from Orange (very good deal!). I have a low tolerance for network branding. Has anyone received a One X directly from Orange yet and how obtrusive/nasty is the branding?

Cheers,

Scott
[HTC One X] Tam the Bam:
Like you I have been offered a cracking deal from Orange direct. As far as I can tell from reading other posts, Orange phones are sim locked to Orange. I asked Orange if they would unlock the sim as I want to use the phone in the US and they have said they can do this for about £20. I have noticed that some third party companies are offering sim unlock for as low as $10 but I think I will stick with Orange unlock. The other option is to pay a bit more and upgrade through Carphone warehouse.

Tam the bam
[HTC One X] vennards:
I upgraded mine on orange but through phones 4 u. Theres absolutely no branding on the handset i got, and the boot screen is the official htc one. the only issue im having is the APN settings are bloody locked so i cant set up tethering like i could on my desire..
[HTC One X] Tiersten:
You need to have the phone registered to your account for a minimum of 90 days before they'll let you unlock it. I just asked Orange today to unlock my previous phone and they confirmed it will be £20.42 with possibly up to 30 days wait as they send the unlock code request to the manufacturers.

You might be able to convince the Orange CS rep to let you unlock earlier than 90 days.

I can't put the URL here but search for "Orange unlock" on Google and the first link should be one to an Orange support site.

I might be missing something here but can't you just add a new APN with the relevant details? My Orange branded One X doesn't let me alter any of the 3 preset Orange APNs but it does let me add a new one and select it to be used.

It is branded but it isn't particularly much. The actual physical handset doesn't have any branding at all unlike some previous Orange phones which had a really obvious Orange logo on it. On the firmware itself, there is an Orange logo during startup and shutdown, they've got an Orange theme set as the default and the Your Account app is preloaded. I've not noticed anything else really that they've changed. The Orange theme is actually okay looking and not 99.99% orange...

The big problem with the operator branded firmware is that you need to wait for Orange to approve and customise every new version of firmware and they might not do them all.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Madykevy:
Hello,

After 1 year of the release of 2.3, its still not available for my device.

I'm currently running 2.3.7 CM7.1, but i want to reset factory defaults and put on the official 2.3 version.

But when i look at KIES its still not available for me.

Location: Netherlands.

Other people have this problem aswel?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kitrax59:
Search here.. Latest for your country is 2.3.5.. This is not carrier specific but it is an official release. Just flash this via Odin.. If you want kies to update your firmware, revert to froyo first then try connecting to kies.. if it doesn't give you updates to download, you have to flash via Odin.

http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-S5570&r=1#regiona

by the way, if you have cm7 or other custom ROM, kies will not work.. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Abraham310:
Try it to flash via odin, If you have CM just flash it to 2.3.4 via odin, then run Kies and solved!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] joey0627:
There is thread about stock roms in mini dev forum. Flash them with odin. Safe to flash as the topic said.

P.S. Never tried, but the response is good. Sorry, my english isn't the best.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
Ok, to keep this short, i have an init.d script which executes a script in a different directory. The reason being is because the script in the different directory has a sleep statement where it waits until its done booting to execute the actual commands. However, the init.d script waits until the other script to finish before exiting, how can i exit the init.d script but let the other scrip run in background?

I looked it up, and google says to use nohup (in linux) but android says no apple found for nohup. And i believe if i used nohup it will work. so does anyone know how to do what im trying?

1- the network is really poor . when i get inside a building it became V weak and sometimes goes out.. other ppl with the same network but not the same cellphones dont have this problem!!

2- also the wifi is very weak??? "i think this issue most of us have it" i'm here asking for a solution..

3- when i open the music player the cellphon gaves this msg twice "unfortunately, music has stopped.

4- the funny thing is when the cellphone in a sleep mood the screen suddenly turns on by it self many times ! :D

how can i deal with such problems? shall i go with another ROM? or my rom just fine and u guys have the cure ^__^?

the last issue that i can not enter my SD card from any file explorer program i just can c imgs and videos in gallery and music in real player.. means i can not explore my SD card?????

thank u V much ^_^
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qaid yassin:
GUYS no one can help :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Talon26:
Sounds like you need to do a complete wipe. If that doesn't work do wipe and reflash CM9 again. Make sure you follow the instructions. the SD card is now called "EMMC" you may need a root enabled browser. Root explorer is one for example. emmc is located in the mnt folder, so if you start at sdcard, it's one folder back and you are in mnt.
[Motorola Droid X2] unt0uchable:
I'm rather new(6 months in) to the scene of flashing roms and sbf'ing and scripting and this sort of stuff. My question is this, since the Razr is Motorola's latest creation and it is said to be getting ICS starting today with an update, will this update play any role in possible development for a full blown ICS AOSP based rom (similar to CM7, I would guess) but with the elements of ICS all in one place. Without having to piece it all together to just look like ICS. Any insight on this would be cool to hear. I'm just curious, and can't upgrade until 2013 :mad:

Thanks.

[Motorola Droid X2] ztotherad:
sir, first off you posted on the wrong forum, dx2 android dev, i ask a mod to move this to general

and tbh, i have no idea if this would affect us, but i do know the razr has an omap ti chip compared to our ****ty, locked down tegra2
[Motorola Droid X2] unt0uchable:
I thought about where to post this and development seemed suitable. Sorry if I broke some rules or something, it just seemed like it might get more attention here being a development question and not just a general question.
[Motorola Droid X2] ztotherad:
which i fully understand, sir, but i dont think the razr will help us much, because of the chipset
[Motorola Droid X2] unt0uchable:
I guess I should have clarified more, now that I think about it, I was thinking more like, would it be possible to take the pieces out of the ICS rom for the RAZR and some how incorporate them into the one of our current roms? Just different elements of the SBF file or systemui.apk. Like I said, I could be blowing smoke and sound completely ignorant about the topic, but I'm just gathering thoughts is all. And please, no need to call me sir. I'm a noob here. lol

-David
[Motorola Droid X2] urphonesux:
it is my understanding that the Razr got ICS by searching project CHEESECAKE
[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
This is kinda sorta what Dragonzkiller is doing with CM9 except he isn't pulling things directly from other systems.

I don't know how much alike the phones are but I'm willing to bet that at the very least the razrs framework might be worth glancing at.
[Motorola Droid X2] litetaker:
Short answer: No.

Long answer: Heeeeeellll No! (What? It is longer, btw! :p)

My job is done here! Captain Obvious up and away!
[Motorola Droid X2] unt0uchable:

[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
Quick Answer: Not like you are thinking??

We won't get Official ICS, IF dzk ever gets the time away from class, we will see a PORT of cm9(which is ICS), but we will probably 'never' get ICS or any ICS Based ROM for a while. Too much stuff to do and not a lot of devs...also, personal life gets in the way a lot over on this end of Android.
[Motorola Droid X2] Srambo217:
It looks like the RAZR is already on the verge of taking the back seat to whatever Motorola/Verizon have on the horizon (Droid Fighter). I get an upgrade next month and have my fingers crossed in hopes that a variant of the HTC One X will come to Verzion (I would settle for an HTC Droid Incredible 4G at this point). This locked bootloader will be the death of development in the foreseeable future, if anything. Motorola makes solid hardware but doesn't want to us to play with it. It's a damn shame.
[Motorola Droid X2] rp076:
True its a shame. The locked bootloader is a big reason I gave up on my X2. The possibilities on the phone could be endless if they'd unlock it but that will never happen cuz Motorola is Big Reds B$%ch. But dragonzkiller still might pull it off for u guys with cm9 in his spare time, and hopefully he will. :)
[Motorola Droid X2] unt0uchable:
These reasons will be the same reason I end up with an HTC after my upgrade. I never though I would go to them but they have far surpassed moto in the support of the dev community. Thanks for the opinions guys.
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Thats why I'm still hoping Cspire or some other smaller carrier pushes Moto to keep this MX2 updated, especially since they just added the device to their lineup a few months ago.
[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
Don't know why they would treat the mx2 differently
[Motorola Droid X2] Thalinor:
It's been said already, but there is no way in hell the DX/DX2 are getting ICS from Motorola. Dragonkiller is probably the best bet and I know he mentioned in another thread he had lots of personal life stuff till at least summer.

Simple answer: No one should be buying Motorola. Send them a message. The Galaxy S III should be out soon and HTC has a decent quad core in the pipeline. Stop buying Motorola phones!

My DX2 does run better then my DX did but that's only because of DK's CM7 port. If VZW's insurance company did not give me the DX2 for a replacement of the DX I had, I would have never owned this phone. It sucks you have until 2013 but with any luck a CM9 p

ort will get done. In 2013 if the world has not ended yet and the time finally comes for your upgrade, I hope you remember Motorola screwing you and not buy another Motorola device. Don't buy into the owned by Google thing, they are still the same company and play by the same rules. Have they removed the encrypted bootloader? No and they won't because Google may own them but they are not interfering with any of Motorolas business practices. Also don't forget Google has become VZW's b*tch lately too so don't expect Google to stand up for you.
[Motorola Droid X2] unt0uchable:
Amen to this. :D
[Motorola Droid X2] dragonzkiller:
Although I'm half-way flattered about your comments about my work, this is posted in the wrong forum.

The X2 will never get official ICS and my CM9 port is the only ICS ROM that will probably ever be released for it. Maybe AOKP if I were to ever get the chance, but who in the hell ever knows.

TLDR: Wrong forums, no ice cream fo you! (yet)

[HTC Inspire 4G] Deztructi0n:
Hello. I am currently looking to ultimately have an ICS Rom on my HTC Inspire 4G. Currently it is running stock Android Version 2.3.3. I read another thread about using the ACE Hack Kit in order to root the Inspire and put custom Gingerbread (2.3.3) Roms, but how would I go about rooting the phone in order to put a custom ICS Rom? Same thing? I just need to be pointed into the right direction really, I apologize if there is already a thread on the topic.
[HTC Inspire 4G] born_fisherman:
Yes, use the same hack kit to gain root.. the software and directions are very easy to follow IMO.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Deztructi0n:
Okay so same hack kit to root and then flash the ICS Rom normally?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dj sampson:
Basicly you got your phone with gingerbread. Ace hack kit downgrades you to froyo so you can flash. To get to ice cream sandwich will need to flash to upgrade.

Cupcake= OS v1.5

Doughnut= OS v1.6

Eclair= OS v2.1

Froyo= OS v2.2

Gingerbread= OS v2.3

Honeycomb= OS v3.0 (tablet)

Ice cream sandwich= OS v4.0

I think I got that right.

Edit: to correct version.

[HTC Inspire 4G] dj sampson:
You could always just wait a few months for the ics updgrade, since your phone is still stock you'll get the upgrade if and when they choose to release it.

The Desire HD is getting the upgrade, not the Inspire 4G :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nylo:
Whats the reason that the Inspire isnt getting ICS?
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
Just one thing buddy, the Hack Kit is not downgrading to froyo...GB shipped Inspires are severely affected if you flash a froyo RUU. The hboot get messed and it takes ages to boot. The Kit uses just GB RUU to downgrade and not in all cases the downgrade is necessary...Please make sure you don't suggest anyone to downgrade with a froyo RUU...all the details are in the manual...:cool:
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
And the correct term is Android, not Droid. Droid is the model name for many of Verizon's android phones.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dj sampson:
Gotcha

Sent from Soundwave aboard Nemesis.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dj sampson:
OK cool didn't know that. I didn't use ace hack kit I used bubbys one touch to root mine. I'm pretty sure mine came stock with 2.2 upgraded to 2.3 with stock update and had to downgrade mine back to 2.2.

Looks like I need to go read the ace manual. Don't want anyone trashing their phone.

Sent from Soundwave aboard Nemesis.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
Because it will cost AT&T $$, and they aren't known for buying upgrades from OEMs very willingly. Also, I don't know that AT&T ever considered the Inspire a "flagship" where the DHD is considered as such.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Its simple. ATT puts each phone on an EOL (End of life) list after 4 months. After that time no more software updates are given out. This goes for all devices. Flagship or Otherwise. This has always been their policy.
[HTC Inspire 4G] DroidRunner:
Even iphone?
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
The iPhone is controlled by apple not the carriers
[HTC Inspire 4G] DroidRunner:
True. My Atrix 4g is getting ICS at the end of 3rd quarter, and its definitely older than 4 months.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
I have my fingers crossed for you man, but to be honest it would not the first time an OEM released an update for a phone but ATT refused to release it. HTC has released 3 updated for This device but ATT only has released one and there are not anymore coming. Hell we didnt even get the Security update that fixed a security flaw in the wifi that HTC released.
[HTC Inspire 4G] DroidRunner:
Phone service providers suck. Thats the bottomline. If we could deal directly with phone manufacturers, life would be easier.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Foka002:
Hi, My wife's DHD has some wierd issue that I can't figure out. Yesterday she could not switch the mobile on. After pressing power button phone vibrates 3 times and orange led flashing forever. Tried to take the battery out but no luck. Sometimes it vibrates 5 times and green led flashing. I managed to go to recovery (custom one) after few hours. I wiped battery stats (that was first thing that came to my mind) but that didn't work. Restarted and same thing again...Few hours later I managed to enter to recovery again and from there I decided that I'm going back to stock so I downloaded Official RUU. Installation went fine, Booted fine, restarted and same thing again! It's not easy to turn back on, takes plenty of tries. Once is on it's fine but We have difficulties to turn it on. Is it battery ? MB ? Any suggestions ?

Thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bondocel:
Hi when a htc phone doesn,t turn on and vibrates in a pattern its usualy hardware related problem, if it is vibrating 7 times it is mainboard or cpu related (might be because of overheating) if it is one long vibration or three i think it is battery related, so if you can try changing the battery (stock battery no china stuff) try to flash a reliable rom like leedroid or cm7 if you can, and afterwords if it is ok flash a new radio, this might be a problem since roms change the RIL.

If you want to try something else pull battery out, put the phone in a plastic bag put it in the freezer for about 30-45 minutes, take it out leave it 10 minus to warm up than put battery back and see if it boots up
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Foka002:
Hi, thanks for your reply.

When I press power button it vibrates 3 times and orange led flashing. When I press power button + volume down it vibrates 5 times and green led flashing.

hello . i am a new htc owner . i have s1 before it's too easy to flash with odin .

i have to flash an arabic software with my evo 3d ??

can anyone provide me a step by step guide on how to unlock the bootloader ?? how to root ??

how to go to download mode ?? to recovery mode ?? how to flasg ?? and where to download roms ?? ( in s1 it was sammobile.com )
[HTC EVO 3D] strykerider:
Ummm first of it you have to let us know what is your evo? GSM or cdma?

I'm using a gsm and have been unlocked the bootloader last week and install a revolutionary CWM + superuser.

You can search in the gsm/cdma evo 3d section step by step to do it. For the gsm the root tutorial have been stick by mod. Follow it step by step. And last thing to do before you unlock your bootloader backup everything in your phone, stuff like sms, note, contacts(maybe already sync with your Google account). Hope it can be help.
