Can you update an .exe file from the SD card...
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
You can extract a rom.zip (which should be renamed to PG86IMG.zip later) from an RUU.exe

You cannot make a exe from a zip.

You cannot update exe from sdcard. Only windows can run EXEs.
[HTC EVO 3D] gump4696:
Can you post the download link for the 2.17 you used? What would you try first to get this to work? Still lost...
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
The downgrading method was kinda longer than the current one when I downgraded the hboot of my 3D. The 1st step was to temproot the phone, which never worked till I used the 2.17 RUU.exe,

Did you read the downgrade thread? There is a link to Filefactory which has all the RUUs for the EVO 3D........

Sorry I cant remember exactly which one I have used, but this one should get the job done -----------> http://www.filefactory.com/file/c19...216_NV_NV_spcs_1.42_release_233304_signed.exe

You may have to wait to download from that site . Much of the the time it says "download slots are unavailable". Or you can just google "RUU_Shooter_S_Sprint_WWE_2.17.651.5_Radio_1.06.00.1216_NV_NV_spcs_1.42_release_233304_signed.exe" and you will find tons of results for this file which you can download from anywhere you want.
[HTC EVO 3D] honorlost84:
If you are relocked then you need a good 2.17 zip. If you have a 2.17 exe that works than get it to load its first screen and hang it there. Go to your run command (where you go to start cmd prompt) type %temp% and find the 2.17 exe folder. *that won't be the name* it should be 400 or so mb. Find the zipped Rom in the folder. Right click it and choose send to desktop. Rename it PG86IMG put it to the root of your sd. And you are good to go. Pm me if you have more questions

from my downgraded 3EVO
[HTC EVO 3D] eyeisdasteve:
I had a hard time getting mine to update a while ago.

Click start menu on windows. Type %temp% in the search bar.

Go into that folder. Delete everything that isn't being used. (All pointless stuff.)

Then close the folder.

Run the RUU and let it get to the first window.

Go back into %temp% folder. There will be 2 folders with a bunch of letters and numbers.

One of these has the rom.zip file.

Take that rename it to PG86IMG and put on root of SD card.

Worked for me.

Let us know.
[HTC EVO 3D] eyeisdasteve:
I didn't read and basically said the same thing. Try it this way.
[HTC EVO 3D] Goneracin:
Click here for a 2.17 RUU that actually works. Just make sure you rename just PG86IMG, the .zip is the type of file and it will make you pull out your hair if you follow everyone's post that tell you to name it PG86IMG.zip. I could not for the life of me find a RUU to work until the kind at the sprint store sent me a link and now it is here for you.
[HTC EVO 3D] netstat_EVO:
The file in the link is the 1.13 RUU, not the 2.17
[HTC EVO 3D] bdubble:
???????????????????

What exactly are you trying to downgrade? If you are locked and s-on running 2.17 and trying to downgrade to 2.17 to gain root? Have you already been HTc dev-unlocked? IF you have, use fastboot on the computer to reflash your unlocktoken. then use the new juopantabear(something like that) to go s-off then use fastboot to flash the unlocked hboot_eng 1.4, then fastboot flash recovery.img, then boot to recovery and flash super user. if not already htc-dev unlocked do that then this
[HTC Sensation] aaronuser:
Picked one up on Craigslist last night. Great phone so far but need t root/rom...etc etc.

Problem I have is it didn't come with nothing but a wall charger (non removable cord).

None of my Samsung or Motorola USB cables seem to work when trying to connect to a PC. This normal for HTC phones? Do I really need a HTC Branded cable?
[HTC Sensation] azzledazzle:
Not at all, You just need the HTC Drivers, Download HTC Sync, Or google the drivers...

I use various make / model chargers/ USB Cables, they work flawlessly.
[HTC Sensation] pifa_k1:
You definitely need HTC original(or compatible) cable (in the end of the cable is USB port witch you connect in PC or in the charger, the other side of the cable you connect into the phone ) so you can connect the phone with PC and make the things easier :)
[HTC Sensation] XaQi 101:
I think any micro USB 2.0 cable should work I used Nokia micro USB cable and just fine. But back to the question what you want to do with the cable. If you are using to OTG, hTC phone not supported.

why not HTC One V, it has similar but better hardware and ICS 4.0.

most important, it is cheap.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davaross:
Cyanogen Mod 9?

In answer to your question yes ICS is available for the desire S in the form of Cyanogen Mod 9.

Whilst I know other roms are available such as Ice Cold Sandwich they all appear to be at least loosely based on CM9.

Although it is described as alpha I have installed it on both my desire s as well as a friends and it works without issue on both devices perfectly all of the hardware is now functional with the exception of the FM radio but there are plenty of online radio apps, or you could just use the MP3 player.

The only small issue you may encounter were problems with games such as temple run although this has been fixed in the latest release (09/05/2012)

I have owned the desire s for just under a year now, it is my first android phone but from experience of viewing friends phones it is still one of the superior android devices on the market. Whilst it does not have the dual core processor or huge amounts of ram of the current flagship phones there is a large community behind the device as there is the desire HD and Z. Therefore there are regular roms available for it. On another note in terms of the phones power, I have not found a single app or game my phone cannot run well including full 3d games such as the pocket version of Minecraft.

In terms of battery life after a year of use I can still manage about 2 days with sparing use and a sense based rom or a whole day with heavy use on a sense rom.

With the new CM9 I am managing 2 days of medium to heavy use and 4 days of sparing use. I believe this is due to the lack of the sense ui.

If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
[HTC EVO 3D] gbert88:
I have a fully stock 3D. I just ran the antutu benchmark test and got a 5000 and some score. My question is this app accurate.

View attachment 990401
[HTC EVO 3D] jslim38:
stock evo

no they are knott but close some get high score's and some dont but sence your on a stock rom you will get the average score but if on a custom rom your score's will incresse
[HTC EVO 3D] Dhanielk:
Each benchmark app have own scoring method. So if you comparing scores of same app it's accurate.

And it is not depend on phone. You can get other score if you do OC, Change Kernel, Custom rom etc.

I have ICS test with stock kernel and have 2865 score :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jul644:
hey guys im stuck now and would like you see the community imput on this, thank you!

3 Days ago my phone froze (custom rom and kernel), i removed the battery and started the phone up again.... i was **** faced at a concert and was impatient as it was on the htc screen, i went into recover and re installed my rom (i have no idea why i didnt install my nand back up.)

The rom installed fine, than it was loading at the htc screen and after 3 min, i took out the battery (mistake on my part)

and at this point is where i really screwed my self, i did a factory reset from fastboot...

now my battery is dead and i cant access recovery, i can push it there through fastboot but when the phone reboots into recovery it dosnt have enoufe battery...

and i cant install my back up or my rom because of this!

when i plug my phone into charge, it charges for about 2 minutes than turns on... but it gets stuck at the htc logo because i didnt a fastboot reset

To get into fastboot, i plug my phone in and wait till it automatically turns on and than hold the volume button down once it vibrates. this dosnt always work and is quite a skill actually!

When i load fastboot/bootloader and the phone checks for update zip's it says battery voltage is too low!

please change a battery...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kelnhofer:
I had a similar experience only with a Rom that allowed the battery to drain completely dead before shutting down. Then when I plugged it into the charger it would charge for about 3 seconds and go off. Too dead to charge! The fix?

to buy a seperate battery charger off E-Bay that allowed me to charge the battery externally.

I got one for $8.00 and received it within a couple of days. No way arround it, you need to charge that battery!!! Gary

Thanks man i was getting worried ! im going to try going to my carrier to see if they will swap it ! lol
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] JunaidZaka:
Guys i want a step by step guide on how to install this on a stock gio rom

without the memory card being partitioned for a2sd by using the aroma installer !

i watched a video and i saw that u can choose to enable a2sd from the aroma installer itself , does this mean that we dont have to partition the sd card and by choosing to enable a2sd from the aroma installer it would do that itself ?

pls answer these questions!
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] saldymhmd:
no, you must manually partition your sdcard if you want to use A2SD, S2E, or Link2SD. But if you don't use it, don't install a2sd or s2e on aroma installer
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] trackIDtracker:
as u know. . .

the basic step of using a2sd is making partition. . .

although it have to be partitioned, it is not as difficult as u think

u flash the rom through recovery, dont u?

isnt there also an option to make partition through recovery?

why dont u just try it. . . that's solved all problems!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zollen:
I have a collection of game objects that perform animations with ObjectAnimator. When my game went to background and got killed for freeing up resources by Android, I need to be able to save all current state of the game objects (including current states of ObjectAnimators). But unfortunately ObjectAnimator is not serializable and therefore I was unable to preverse the current states of all these ObjectAnimator objects. How could I restore the current state of ObjectAnimator objects after my game brought back to foreground? Do I have to do it the hard way where I would have to manually retrieve every possible values from each ObjectAnimator object and save them?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moonbloom:
Hello (:

I'm looking for a music player app that actually looks good on a tablet.

I've tried MixZing, PowerAmp and such, but haven't found any that are tablet optimized and have good features.

I'd prefer one with a widget that could take up an entire home screen on the Prime (8x5 I believe?) and one that has a lockscreen player.

I hope someone can help me out (:

- Moon
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] FunkyMcBain:
I'm curious about this too. The one thing google needs to do a better job with is these native Android apps, it should be fairly easy to make something that competes with "iPod" app in iOS, it's not like it's something special
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Stocki96:
I think the best one is "musicXmatch"

I really like the look of it and you can see the lyrics of nearly every song!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moonbloom:
Just tried MusixXMatch, and there are literally about 8 options, 5 of them are related to headsets.

The biggest widget is 3x1 and is just pause and next track buttons, and there is no lockscreen player at all.

Thanks for your idea, but I'll keep looking.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TremF:
IMO the best player with plenty of options & settings (inc equalizer), decent widget (even if not full screen - if there are any full screen widgets?), plays many file types and has the lock screen controls you want is Poweramp.

I don't know if there is a difference between the free and paid versions but I have the paid and it's been worth every penny.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moonbloom:
I tried PowerAmp trial version off the play store, and the lockscreen player forced it into portrait mode (horrible), and the good looks and properly sized/fitted buttons that I know from having it on my phone is completely DESTROYED on my Prime tablet.

If the full version works otherwise, or I've missed something, could you please post a screenshot or two of your PowerAmp on your tablet?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TremF:
I don't have an app to take screenshots of the lock screen but the player takes up a decent space on the left of the screen with album art and controls with your unlock slider etc to the right of the screen.

I use my Prime docked mostly and the lock screen displays landscape as normal for me.

I have attached other screenshots of the app...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moonbloom:
From what I saw in the PowerAmp options, there are 2 different lockscreen players.

There's 1 where it makes it own lockscreen, with quite beautiful buttons and art, and cover art pictures, and its own little button to press for unlocking the device (This one was forced into portrait mode for me when I tried it)

And then there's the other one, smaller one, where it adds an overlay to the left of the center in the normal lockscreen, with a little box where the cover art / simple buttons are in. (works fine in landscape mode)

Which one are you using? (:

And a little side question, what Launcher are you using on the 4th screenshot you posted? Nova? Trebuchet? Or?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TremF:
I use the ICS lock screen option which displays landscape. I tried Poweramps built in lock screen and it did as you said and switched to portrait. I like the ICS lockscreen option though - just places the album art and basic controls on the left of the screen with the time and date.

The launcher I am using is ADWLauncher Ex. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Zephyrot:
PowerAmp will give you the best sound in Android, by far.

If your issue is only the lockscreen, you could try Widgetlocker. I have it on my Android phones and it is AMAZING. It has an ICS locker (look 100% the same, but let you customize Widgets on it and extra options for the unlocker.)

It drains no battery at all, but I have not tried it on my Prime. I will try it out and report back :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clouds5:
I prefer PlayerPro. It has all the options you could wish for, has several skins you can choose to make it look the way you want and it is able to use the stock android lockscreen widget. Widgets for homescreens come in various sizes, the biggest is about one quarter of a page imho.

It also downloads Pictures for you artists automatically that makes the player look really nice. I guess its on par with PowerAmp but underrated :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Zephyrot:
What makes PowerAmp stand out is the AMAZING audio quality it has. If you turn on EQ, apply the correct settings the sound is mind blowing. It does consume CPU tho, quite a bit if you put it to sound how it was made to, but totally worth it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sbdags:
Player pro is better than power amp imo. Has a fantastic equalizer and just works.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] brantje:
I'd say go for PlayerPro, its really well worth the money
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] craigacgomez:
I've only seen on truly "tablet UI/UX optimized" music player... Hive Player... Google Play Music is the next best when it come to "tablet UI/UX optimized"...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mrokeefe:
I personally use Google music and nothing else. On my phone and my prime. Love it. Works great. Looks great. ALL my music is there and sounds bomb too. I've tried poweramp and others but ever since Google music came out...I've been stoked.

This is not a paid endorsement nor do I work for Google blah blah blah

Modded by MBOK
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Zephyrot:
Soooo, reporting back!

Widgetlocker works wonderful on the Prime, so your issue with the Lockscreen could be solved just using it :P it will let you add ANY Widget to the lockscreen and set up whatever you want in the unlock Ring.

Tried PlayerPro, the UI is REALLY good I must say, and how it set ups band pictures for the bandlist is amazing! (Actual band pics, not Albums)

Downloaded the DSP Pack and did the EQ set up, and tested it side to side with PowerAmp, and I gotta say PowerAmp sounds better imo.

OMW to test out Hive Player :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moonbloom:
I've now tested the various music players people mentioned in this thread and these are my results:

MusicXMatch:

Looked very bad on my Prime, and i don't have any usage for the "Lyric" part of it, which is basicly it's biggest selling point.

Hardly any widgets, and no lockscreen player, and almost no options to customize it.

PlayerPro:

A decent competitor to PowerAmp, but again, no lockscreen player and the look of it, along with the button placements didn't appeal to me.

Also has alot of skins on the Play Store.

Hive Player:

I tried the "evaluation" version (author's own words), and it is indeed optimzed for tablets. I like the widgets.

But it lacks many features, and it doesn't automatically download album art. And the "evaluation" version stops playing after 1min in every song, which is kind of lame, even for a trial version.

PowerAmp:

At first i didn't enjoy it that much, but after testing other music players, it seemed to be the best looking one with the most features.

Decent widget packs, alot of skins off the Play Store.

Lockscreen player is either ICS's default one, or a lockscreen player that only works in Portrait mode. (I'm gonna try WidgetLocker to replace it)

I've bought PowerAmp Full Unlocker, and now i'm gonna test WidgetLocker as a lockscreen player replacement (based on what Zephyrot posted)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Zephyrot:
Be sure to set it up right, it has A LOT, and I mean A LOT of options :)

There is another free app that can download extra Lockscreen themes for it, in case you want to try out new ones.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moonbloom:
I tried WidgetLocker, and excuse me if this is a stupid question.. But isn't there any way to use other kind of lockscreen players other than simply one of the widgets from PowerAmp?

I very much like the PowerAmp lockscreen (the one forced to Portrait), and my ideal lockscreen player would simply be that one.. In Landscape mode (of course some changes would have to be made, in order for it to fit properly).

EDIT: As you said you tested PlayerPro VS PowerAmp with optimal settings, could you please share those "optimal" settings for PowerAmp? I'm not currently using the equalizer at all, because I simply don't know how to set it up to sound better than standard settings.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] brantje:
It has... look under options...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dude6595:
1+ for poweramp also....I love it for tablet and phone!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Zephyrot:
the beauty about WidgetLocker is that it will allow you to use any Widget on screen, and resize it. If you dont like the Stock PowerAmp Widget you could download any other Music Widget that works with PowerAmp and use it on the Lockscreen.

I found a couple of Widgets that can control PowerAmp:

- Media Buttons

- Plug In Music

- Phantom Music Control

Just be sure to go to Settings -> Apps -> All and deactivate Google Music (Play Music or whatever it is called now).

For the EQ, that depends mostly on your Music taste and what kind of Music do you hear, and of course what Headphones do you have!

Anyways, here is my setup. PowerAmp lets you have different EQ settings for each listening device. I have one setting for my AKG 830BT Headphones (High end AKG device), another for my Wired headphones (which I never use lol) and another one for the Prime Speaker.

BT Headphones:

Prime Speaker:

Basically the same, just attenuated bass/treble for the Prime Speaker.

For the Tone/Vol screen:

And this is how my Widgetlocker screen looks, basically stock ICS look, with just 2 icons added (HDR Camera and Silent mode) and the PowerAmp Widget :)

Hope it helped :)
