unlocked through HTCDEV.com but S-on: Not enough to tweak /system/bin/build.prop ?

Having read the most detailed steps on how to enable phone calls such as http://blog.toaninfo.com/2011/09/s-off-cwm-recovery-root-add-phone-to.html (few say this always requires a headset though, Bluetooth or other(wire)wise - the microphone being a surprising omission, and reports rare regarding success with cable headsets either)

as well as http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/about_unlock_process

I wonder why S-OFF is supposed to be required by both these instructions and e.g. the latest LeeDrOiD http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1406851:

Unless either one adds something no-one in their right mind should be missing (but then where's that in the feature list? ;)), wouldn't there be an easier way to accomplish the build.prop patch with a TempRoot (preferably which?) on the stock Gingerbread that seems to work well enough for most people (including the hardware keys dear to so many) ?

I dug out my htc charger, the one that comes with the G2, and after charging to 100% with it the battery drains incredibly fast. It was dead in 4 hours with only 15-20 mins of actual use. My phone just got done charging via PC and everything seems back to normal. Is there something wrong with the htc charger, that it made the battery weak? I hope it didn't do any damage to my phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l337m45732:
Most likely that charger is garbage. Your best bet would to order one on ebay for 99cents. Thats the kind i use and they are awesome. If your battery presists draining quickly, then you should get a new battery. As far as i know, you havent done any damage to the phone itself.

Just put bootanimation.zip to /system/media/ file.(a file explorer with root access needed, e.x. Root Explorer)

Don't forget to rename the old bootanimation, for example bootanimationlod.zip

I got an HTC Desire Z (Froyo/Android 2.2) that came with preinstalled crapware. I have uninstalled the crapware using Root Uninstaller, and it doesn't run anymore. But, Google Play keeps nagging me to manually update the crapware, even though it's (supposedly) uninstalled. I looked in Ghost Commander and it still shows an entry for the crapware. What should I do to remove this crapware entirely?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmpollet:
Hi,

Since ICS 4.0.3 and now on 4.0.4, I can't hear my contact and my contact can't hear me on the first call.

I tried to use the speaker, the headphones or a Bluetooth earpiece but none of these work.

The second call is always alright, regardless the output (earpiece, speaker, headphone, ...).

This is not an operator issue, since I changed and had the problem before.

Does anyone encounter the same issue?

The only workaround I found yet, is to call voicemail on the first call so that the second call is alright.

I tried to factory reset the phone while on 4.0.3 and hoped the 4.0.4 update change something on that matter but it didn't.

Thank you for your replies.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Some things to try:

-Flash a different radio (can find all of them in the dev section)

-Full wipe (data/factory reset, format /system, format /boot) and reflash your preferred ROM

I've seen this bug on many many NEXUS S (4.03 & 4.04)

I think ALL NEXUS S have this bug with all mobile carriers.

Sometimes, particularly if the phone was idle, when you call someone : there is no sound.

It's like the speaker and the microphone were off.

You can raise this bug very easily, maybe 20% of the calls.

Someone suggested to flash another radio ROM. I check the topic on that matter and wonder if I need to be rooted to do that. There's no mention you need to be but saving /efs folder suggests you must be.

Hi, I'm french too and have the same problem but with a different provider (Bouygues). In my opinion, it's not related to the provider.

Hello,

I've the same issue.

my phone: Nexus S I9020a / ics 4.0.4 / Radio:XXKL1 / Carrier: Orange in France.

I used this page to try different radio : Radio GUIDE.

I was unable to flash UCKJ1 : fastboot say write error, and CWM say ok but the baseband wasn't changed. maybe because it was unsigned

I then flashed with success XXKF1. (this one was signed).

I'v tested with two call, and that's worked (I'll have to wait to be sur it's realy worked).

On the Radio page there is a "Warning do not flash on 9020a" for the XXKL1 radio : maybe the explanation for 9020 owner.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joobi:
after deeper test : XXKF1 radio doesn't fix the problem.

I've swtiched to GB 2.3.7 / CM 7.1 / Lucid-Kernel-blue and the problem is gone away.

I've still the XXKF1 radio, so the radio doesn't seem to be the problem. It's an ics 4.0.3 problem (the radio of ics 4.0.3 is OK).

GB 2.3.7/ CM7.1 is far more responsive for me (and have a kernel with pre-2.3.3 color driver :) ), ics don't miss me. I've my phone from only a month and haven't tested GB before the sound problem.

Accidentally "updated" Kindle app via Google Market, need original Kindle Fire .apk

Hello, all! I apologize for intruding on your forums, I really do. But I've found myself in a spot of trouble, as the title might tell you. I just need the regular 'ole Kindle app that comes with the Fire, because the general Android app...well, it's just not as good, at least on a Fire, which has a nice integrated experience. So if someone can supply me with that, I would be mighty glad.

Also, and this might also be a little redundant...I noticed, after the 6.3 update, I can't use restore my root. I was trying to install Avast! but found that I RootRestore wasn't working. Will I need to do it once more? It's not a big deal, and I probably need to check out this convenient-sounding Kindle Fire Utility anyway.

Once again, thank you for taking the time to read this, and I really am sorry if this app has been posted before. I do Google extensively before I make ask forums for help, especially a forum I don't frequent like such as this one.

My son has one of these ph's...

Soonish I will install recovery using odin & then make a nandroid of his stock rom...

once we have that done I'm guessing he'll want to try a custom rom :D

do I need to flash a 2.2 stock rom before trying CM7??

If so, which stock rom should I be using... I'm from New Zealand btw (next to Australia).

T.I.A
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] chillvisio:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1149110

In order to avoid flashing 2.2 then going to CM7 you will need first the correct baseband for your region and flash it with Odin before flashing CM7 port by MADTEAM. I hope that this was helpful :)
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] King_Rat:
Thanx for reply ^^

but...my sons ph is stock 2.1, so it already has correct baseband ;)

You're saying I can go straight to CM7 (from 2.1) as long as I flash correct baseband along with CM7 install?

Once I have CWM installed & everything backed up I'll give it a nudge :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] chillvisio:
I understand, but you already need the 2.2 baseband version before installing CM7 port. It won't work with 2.1 baseband. Just go to madteam.co forum and grab the latest baseband version for your region, then flash it, and finally flash the CWM.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] King_Rat:

Odin won't detect ph??

Cable is working... (can get into kies)

Ph is in download mode...

Drivers are installed (those for when ph is awake [auto installed via Win 7] & those from Samsung site when ph is in download mode [manually installed])

Must be the OPS file!!

I need one for GT I5500...

when I select the OPS that came in archive from the 'How to install CWM & CM7' thread... it shows I5500 @ the top of tool & not GT-I5500 from the images in the guide...

Please advise :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] chillvisio:
These are the steps that I'm using to flash stock and other ROMs: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13958380&postcount=2

You have to pass the three key combination in order to enter "download mode". After you are in, you will like to load the OPS file which is named EUROPA_v1.0.ops. Choose "one package" in Odin options in the left and load the baseband that you've downloaded at the baseband thread in "One package" down in the right. Then connect the phone and the spot called "Com port mapping" will light up in yellow which means that not only that your phone has been detected, but it is ready to be flashed. Now click the "Start" button and wait a few seconds. Your phone will restart and probably will bootloop. Take out the battery and place it back in a few seconds later. Go to download mode again and load the CWM tar as "one package". Then flash again.

After the phone restarts you will be within the ClockworkMod recovery. Now it is time to place the update and gapps (should your son need google apps package for some reason) in the root folder of your microSD card (or in some folder called eg. CyanogenMod). Flash the CM update, wipe all data, cache, dalvik, battery stats, fix permissions, restart and you will see the blue skating robot. If you have a bootloop, redownload the update file for CM and reupload it to to sd card... now you are using the CM port by psyke83 :)
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] King_Rat:
Dude!! I flashed the baseband from madteam and now I'm in boot loop :mad:

Knew it sounded fishy :eek:

baseband on my moto is changed after rom install... not before

I'd appreciate if you could point me to a stock firmware that I can flash with Odin or tell me the key combination to get into recovery mode so I can restore the backup I made...

Edit: Found a English stock 2.2 rom which I flashed using Odin...

Can't we get into recovery with a key combo?? Seems odd O_o
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] chillvisio:
Here is the sequence of upgrading from 2.1 to CM7 port:

Plan B

1. flash baseband for 2.2 (or flash 2.2 itself and it will replace 2.1 baseband with 2.2 one)

2. flash CWM and it will reboot in recovery mode

3. install CM7 from update file from goo-inside.me...

or:

Plan A (psyke83 prefers this one)

1. root 2.1

2. install GooManager from G Play Store

3. open GooManager, check for updates, download update and enter recovery to install CM7

It looks like you've just completed step 1 from Plan B. Now it's time to visit download mode again and proceed with step 2, then step 3 and you are running CM7.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Twister292:
I tried going from stock 2.1 to CM7...my G5 is from the Middle East, with XSG product code so it was sitting on 2.1 since I bought it...

No matter how many times I tried going into recovery, performing the "4 wipes" and then installing in the correct sequence, it wouldnt leave boot loop...to top it up, my stock JJ2 rom flashed using Odin was also boot-looping...

I only rescued my phone by first flashing i5500XXJED and then going back to my stock ROM...

Was this because I didn't go from 2.2 to CM7?:confused:

[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] rhhd:
Since I have invested quite some effort searching for the best reader to use for scientific documents, I thought I would create this thread to tell other people what I found; maybe it will save someone some work:

-----

In mathematics, physics, parts of computer science and other scientific disciplines we use a typesetting system called TeX to make our documents. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TeX It is a pretty powerful system that ensure beautiful typesetting, page layouts, logical structure, bibliographies etc. almost automatically. In addition, it is the only real way to make mathematical formulae, so in many subjects there is no alternative anyway.

-----

Using the NST with documents coming from this system is tricky: The re-flowing features of all PDF readers I know of will break these complex documents. Also, they destroy the aesthetics of the documents. So what we need is a reader that can display them in their original layout, but still in a usable way. The only workable solution I have found so far is "Mantano Reader" together with the "Smart Rotator" app.

In Mantano you can double tap on the text section of a TeX document and the reader will automatically fit this text section into the display. While all PDF readers can do this, it works much better here: If you now scroll up and down, you will stay "locked" horizontally, so you don't lose the column will scrolling.

Even when you go to the next page, the lock to the column remains. This even seems to work, when then column is not in the same place (e.g. because the PDF is a book, so it has different left and right margins on even and odd pages).

There is a feature to remove whitespace around the TeX document. Generally this works reasonably, although sometimes it bugs a little. I personally don't use it, as the double tap zoom already works well.

It supports the NST page nav buttons without any hacks.

The interface is quite ugly and disorganized; the file browser horrible. But you don't notice these things while actually reading, and I guess you can't have everything.

I combined this app with the "Smart Rotator" app from the market. This allows you to set screen orientations individually for all apps. I set Mantano to Landscape and all other apps to Portrait. In landscape mode the screen really is wide enough to read comfortably TeX documents on the NST, even without reflowing.

I'm always interested in this because B&N snarfed some unallocated keycodes to use for the four hard keys.

Are you saying that all four hard keys cause some sort of page up/page down?

It seems to me that if a software provider didn't know about the Nook then only the left two keys would do something.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] rhhd:
Yes all four work as they should.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] mdall:
Thank you, it works fine

Imo, the only major drawback is when you use the NST buttons or you tap the screen, it goes to the following page (it would be better if it just scrolled down a little).

Ebookdroid (particularly with NoRefresh) and APV PDF Viewer (optimized for the nook) are also rather good
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] rhhd:
