I'm on stock 2.3.4. It blew my mind though lol, and then stopped. Everything is normal now. Very strange. Maybe some kind of new malware? The last year or so has seen a huge increase in malware for Android, iOS, and Macs.
[Motorola Droid X2] antp121:
ive NEVER heard of that! lol better brush up on your Cyrillic :D. ive had ghost touches on some devices thats freaky **** but never weird texts
[Motorola Droid X2] theredvendetta:
Yeah I'd never heard of it either, I assumed she was just messing with me, but not so much. I used to get some weird stuff like you where it would think I was pressing parts of the screen was I wasn't even touching the phone, but I fixed that with a dalvik cache wipe I think. Usually Android is fairly stable, so when I started seeing the Cyrillic I half expected my X2 to BSOD :P
[Motorola Droid X2] grnsl2:
That's totally awesome! In such a bad bad way though. Maybe you shouldn't have bought it outta that guys trunk? My aunt has a printer that likes to print some things in Chinese.

I mean does a factory reset change things back, or uninstalling whatever you installed last etc?

NM on what the fix was, see that now. That's puzzling.
[Motorola Droid X2] djRamage:
On the Droid X, a few roms use a custom boot menu to overclock/undervolt, recoveries, that sorta thing. It was triggered by pressing a volume button at a blue light during boot. One rom had this blue light shine twice (possible glitch), and I accidentally pushed at the perfect time to apparently load android (CM7 Kang) and the boot menu at the same time. I saw both screens overlayed, but the CM7 boot animation was double size, and distorted in colors. I was able to see the phone load, and ready to unlock, and I decided to pull that battery for fear of corruption. Never happened again (tried to replicate situation).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhatsAHinduToDo:
Hello everyone

I bought the SGS2 I9100 (international version) off contract. The phone originally came with baseband version I9100XXKF3 and the language set to "English - U.K.". I am currently using an old Cognition build with baseband I9100XXKH3.

My question is, which ICS ROM should I install on my phone? I'm referring to stock or CFRoot roms only, I just don't want to install the wrong baseband rom on my phone. Also, I am on AT&T in the US and need to make sure that my phone and data services work after flashing.

Thanks for any help!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
If the baseband you have works save it and pop it in your ICS if the baseband in that is not up to scratch .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhatsAHinduToDo:
What do you mean by that? If I flash an ics Rom, doesn't that set the baseband? I'm just trying to figure out which ics release I should use
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Basebands /modems are interchangeable for many locations .

Rom you are using now has a baseband if that works well note the version and you can flash one from the flashable modems thread if the ICS turns out to not have a suitable modem for your location .

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
I'm not familiar with XTC clips or the effects they may have on the phone, but there are some things you could try.

Can you hard-reset the phone? This requires holding a few different buttons at power-on (look it up) but it's possible.

Can you boot the phone to Update/Recovery mode, and try restoring a Zune backup that you made previously? Press and hold the Camera button while starting the phone, then connect it to the PC and start Zune.

Do *not* attempt a custom ROM; SPL 4.6 will break if you try to use RSPL/HSPL. However, you could try using the CAB sender (if you can get to update mode) to downgrade the phone, and then flash a custom ROM instead (since you can obviously get to bootloader mode).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inzaghi--9:
thank you very much

The problem existed before i used the xtc tool

i mack hard reset but problem not solved

i don,t have backup on zune :(

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Try re-flashing a stock ROM. There are links to many ROMs on the XDA-Developers Wiki; just go to the page for your device and there should be a link for ROMs.

Other than that, the only other advice I can offer is to replace your phone under warranty, as it's obviously not working...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fengjch127:
have you tried a stock rom?>

HTC has some limitations on flashing custom rom

If it still doesn't work,i;m afraid u need to use some special tools (Y-line?goden card?I really don;t know how to translate these thing,my English is much poor than you)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inzaghi--9:
thank you very much

i tried a lot of stocks ROM i,ll try again

pleas if you have another way tell me these way
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
The only other thing I can think of to try is downgrade your bootloader, install HSPL, and flash a custom ROM. However, if flashing a stock ROM didn't fix it, I doubt this will.

At a guess, you have a hardware defect - possibly bad RAM, for example - that is causing the phone to crash at a certain point during bootup. I suggest that you just get it replaced, if at all possible.

[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
So, I'm new to rooting, and, as such, after looking around the forums, I haven't found a similar thread (for the EVO 3D) about what ROM I should get. I've been looking through the CDMA forum at different ROMS, but I'm not sure which one to use. I won't be downgrading to 1.4 HBOOT, since I don't have a linux PC or the balls to do it, so I will be using the HTC Unlocker. All I want is to have the ability to use the Hotspot/tethering for free, because I'm not about to pay Sprint an extra 30 dollars/mo on top of my 65 dollar/mo plan right now.

So, if anyone has any help, I'd really appreciate it, because I have no idea what I'm doing.
[HTC EVO 3D] Astrikz:
ViperRom for the win!!

Its fast, battery is great. And it has wifi hotspot!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192628
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Yeah, I was looking at that. Do I need to download it before I actually use the HTC unlocker?
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
If that's all you want, you don't need to flash a new rom. Just root and install the Wireless Tether app.

You can download a rom whenever you want. Just make sure you are rooted and have a recovery and the Flash Image GUI app installed before flashing
[HTC EVO 3D] Threevo:
here, this guide will help you alot .

http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-3d-hacks/how-to-root-evo-3d-2-08-651-2-and-later-htc-unlock-method/
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Can I download the Wireless Tether app from the App Store?
[HTC EVO 3D] Astrikz:
The app sucks. You should use the actually sprints hotspot app. Also I suggest not using image GUI but 4ext recovery
[HTC EVO 3D] fourthhorseman:
I vote Infectedrom. Its fast even without overclocking it. But if you do want to overclock check out chadgoodman's anthrax.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
My friend is saying there's more ways to root your phone other than the HTC Unlocker or the downgrade to 1.4 hboot. First off cause I don't have a linux PC, and my friend's friend said he used a program to root it on windows.

EDIT: After doing some research, I found this: http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-3d-hacks/how-to-downgrade-hboot-1-50-to-1-40-on-htc-evo-3d-new/ and this: http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-3d-hacks/how-to-root-htc-evo-3d/

I was wondering if these are reliable and they both work, mostly the Revolutionary app. Because I've heard that it's not all that amazing, but they must have updated it since I heard that.
[HTC EVO 3D] Astrikz:
That's how I unlocked mine on boot 1.5 there's a video so its easier for people who don't know a lot and also don't have to install sdk but just a file which has all the files needed to root.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
But the HTC Unlock method doesn't allow for s-off, which I guess I don't need. I mean, all I really want is the hotspot enables. I heard that the HTC Unlock method takes quite a while to run as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] jslim38:
Yes EVO hacks work I used it to root my EVO
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Yes, or from the MANY links on xda to the google code page for that app.

If you are on hboot 1.5, the htc dev unlock, then hboot downgrade is the ONLY method.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
K, well, after reading some stuff, I think it may be best to wait for ICS to come out and see what happens, because, apparently it should be coming out sometime soon, if I'm not mistaken.
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
And if you take the OTA ICS update, it could update the hboot and you may never be able to root it. If you are going to root, do it now.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Yeah, but the thing is, I've been comparing HTC Unlock with downgrade and root, the only difference, besides true s-off, is you aren't able to have you own splash screen with HTC Unlock (Big whoop.) So, instead of taking the time (albeit a few minutes) To downgrade my phone and to root it that way. I think I'll wait for ICS to come out, then for the HTC Unlock to update for it, since I rather like the way ICS will look, also as I've said before, all I really want is the ability to use the Sprint Hotspot without paying an extra 30 bucks. That and with the HTC unlock, I can still put on a custom ROM, if I so desire, once they've been updated for ICS.
[HTC EVO 3D] hitman4274:
Ohhhh... Where should I start.... Well for one s-off means a lot, not just splash screens... Which I love my custom splash screen btw.... Makes my phone extremely unique...

If I was in your shoes.. I would downgrade the hboot... Root it.. and install the tethering app... And be done with it... Regardless of when the ota comes out for ics.. that means very very little...

Once the ota does come out, ROM devs will be all over it, and custom ics roms will be popping up all over the place...

"All I really want is tether...." No its not.... Trust me once you dive into the rooted EVO 3d and you realize how the phone is suppose to run, not how it runs stock you will be glad you went through the trouble with the downgrade...

Do what you do, as long as your happy and enjoying your 3vo that's what's matters...
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Well, my biggest problem with trying to downgrade is I'm having trouble finding a way to downgrade with just windows, since I don't have Linux. Unless I just didn't read it right, I think someone said that the link I posted about downgrading with windows is outdated?

EDIT: Why would I install a tethering app when, supposedly, I can use the Sprint Hotspot, which is supposed to be better than the tethering app? Also, I have quite a few apps on my phone and I'm not sure I'll be able to use them all still if I root my phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] plaidcounty:
It's really not hard to get Linux. You can even partition your windows machine and run Linux alongside it. I prefer Linux. And why not? Android is Linux...
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Well, for me, there's several issues with that. 1) I'm using a laptop that isn't mine for the time being, and i don't want to go and make a new partition. 2) If I were to wait till the parts for my new desktop to come in, I'd have to wait till the end of March anyways for a new processor to come out. 3) I've never even messed with Linux.
[HTC EVO 3D] plaidcounty:
All good reasons. Also brings me to another point... 4ext recovery now supports easily flashing roms and kernels with s-on and without being connected to a computer.

I unlocked my evo 3d with HTC method and installed the 4ext recovery without any problems. I also don't really need a custom splash screen and agree that the wifi tether app doesn't work as well as the unlocked sprint hotspot app.
[HTC EVO 3D] plaidcounty:
As far as suggesting a from goes... meanROM would be my choice if you want everything working. Another great choice is the freEvo 3d from if you want everything working and don't like sense that much.

If you don't care about the 3d and wimax and don't like the sense UI, go with miui. Tethering works great on this rom and it's super customizable.
[HTC EVO 3D] Astrikz:
Well then what i recommend is just flash a rom (Viperrom/ZR3D) which both have hotspot working.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
So, after looking over what I thought was a windows only method of downgrading actually turning out that you still needed a Linux machine, I think that tomorrow, I may just use the HTC Unlocker and just deal with not having s-off and getting viperROM. I guess that when ICS comes out, I can just unroot/unlock it and upgrade to ICS, depending on if another ICS Rom comes out that I can flash that has the hotspot unlocked.
[HTC EVO 3D] Astrikz:
Good for you. I don't see why so many people care about having s=off
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Yeah. From what I read, HTC Unlock basically gives you s-off capability while it's still s-on, yet you can still flash roms and kernels to your phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] plaidcounty:
It's true, you can. And like I said before. With 4ext recovery you can flash kernels as if you were s-off. Just need to use the newest test build.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
You could use an Ubuntu Live CD so you do not have to partition your HD and actually install Linux.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
That's true, I forgot about that. But in the guide, it doesn't really tell me how to switch to ubuntu, since I've never used it and never had to switch OSs before.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
So, I just unlocked my phone via the HTC Method and am now downloading ViperROM. Is there anything else I should do? I know some people were saying to use 4ext. But, as the title says, new to rooting.

In this guide I'm using: http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-3d-hacks/how-to-root-evo-3d-2-08-651-2-and-later-htc-unlock-method/

It says that I still need to root my phone after I unlock it, yet it is saying that I need to use Revolutionary. From my understanding, that's out of date.
[HTC EVO 3D] plaidcounty:
This is the video I followed as well. Even though it's older that CWM recovery is still a good recovery. All you need to do afterwards is install the 4ext recovery updater or recovery control from http://www.4ext.net/

Install the latest (4EXT Recovery Touch v1.0.0.5 RC1 Testing build 30 is currently the newest) and make sure you select yes when it asks you if you have s-on. That way it will know to use the Smartflash option.

If you install through the Play store you'll see a warning about s-off, but with the evo 3d and smartflash that warning is invalid now. Trust me, I'm using it right now. But if you have any doubts, just install the recovery updater apk. Make sure you check the box for installing from Unknown Sources. Good Luck!

PM me if you feel stuck.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Should I just get the 4EXT Recovery Updater? Cause I'm not about to pay 2 dollars for something that should be free.

EDIT: So I just downloaded and unzipped the ViperROM, and I'm not sure, exactly, what to do next. I know that I need to go into the bootloader, but past that, I dunno.
[HTC EVO 3D] plaidcounty:
You're absolutely right. Why pay two dollars for something someone worked hard on if you can get a coke from the machine in the break room at work instead? Think of it as a donation. I'm sure you tip your server more...

Either way, get the 4EXT Recovery Updater, install it from your current rom, start 4EXT, say yes to the EVO 3D, install latest recovery and flash it to recovery partition, say yes to s-on, manage backups, create new backup, check the box at the bottom to stay in recovery, wipe cache/dalvick, factory reset, install update from zip, choose zip, locate your viperROM, hit OK, reboot, hit OK, phone reboots twice, you'll see the custom viperROM bootscreen after the HTC splash, wait until it finishes (first time after a dalvick wipe is alway longer) and have fun! If anything goes wrong, restore your backup. Backups usually take five minutes to create.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Well, my thing is, if I want to donate, I'll donate. But that's neither here nor there. Also, I have no current ROM atm. I am, currently, in fastboot USB right now.
[HTC EVO 3D] plaidcounty:
Did you fast boot any recovery? If so, you can flash a rom and kernel from the recovery while connected to your PC. Make sure the rom is on your SD card. If not, while in fast boot recovery choose to start USB storage, move it over, and flash it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Panface:
Yeah, I used the HTC Unlock method and got CWM Recovery and flashed ViperROM on my phone. I also have the 4EXT Recovery file on my computer atm, though I don't know how to overwrite CWM with 4EXT

EDIT: So, I have viperrom, and it says the Sprint Hotspot is unlocked, yet when i try to use it, it says I can't use it cause I'm not paying the 30/mo for it.
[HTC EVO 3D] plaidcounty:
As far as 4EXT goes, you launch that after installing while booted in the rom. You need to open a file browser on your phone to locate it and it will install. After that, launch it like a normal app and choose online install. From there, refer to my previous post.

As for the Sprint Hotspot, looks like you're already posting in that forum so hope you get your answer. If not, there are plenty of other roms that do the Hotspot unlocked.

On [ricardopvz's] Megatron [CM9], it says "H/W decoding unavailable" on .avi files.

On the same rom, .mkv and I think .mp4 play fine with H/W [though sometimes it stutters a bit when the camera moves rapidly, like a helicopter-shot]. Just wondering why the H264 works but MPEG4 doesn't on 3rd party roms
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] subbyhasan:
Hey :)

Have been drawn towards MiniCMSandwich for my Xperia Mini Pro as would love features of ICS on my phone

However, was thinking of all ROMS and thought maybe there was a better ROM for me? Of course, one of the most popular in CM7 but would it work for me? I want ideally the menu etc of ICS as well of the reported speed of it but which ROM will give me that?

Secondly wanted to ask about Flashing. On the Wotanserver website I have seen I can flash to 4.0.2........ but what problems would that have? Or would it be better than the MiniCM ROM?

Or should I just wait until SE release the official update in 2 months?

Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Your phone already has 4.0.2.A.0.xx update. Just check in Settings-About Phone. WotanServer offers stock firmware and kernel for all 2011 Xperia phones(and lots others). You can use it to restore your phone to fully stock system if you need it, like when ICS comes out, then you need to have fully stock.

Hybrom is currently stock-based and stable with lots of customization.

Most other custom ROMs(MiniCM, CM7, CM9 etc) have quite lots of bugs, but you need to read the ROM's topic to find these out.

I have Live with Walkman myself, so I am not aware for another phones.

You can try out different ROMs, install one, try for some time, if you don't like it, install another one etc.

Custom ROMs will require custom kernel also(some of these include self, some don't) and unlocked bootloader(if you do that, stay away from OTA updates, else you will brick your phone). Don't forget these :)

If you decide to stay on stock ROM, get it rooted(you can read my tutorial, if you need help with it) and get rid of some unneeded system apps. Also, then you can yourself customize it as much as you want.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] subbyhasan:
Thank you for that. When you say my phone has the 4.0.2 update available does that mean I can get all the features of ICS? So the menu/home screen etc?

In your opinion, would you say that you should go for a Custom MiniCMSandwich, or then wait until June and get the official 4.0 update from SE?

Or am I misunerstanding and is ICS with all features already available for my XMP?

Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
No, it is Android 2.3 Gingerbread, but 4.0.2.A.0.xx is a version number for Gingerbread update. ICS is not released yet.

I haven't tested MiniCMSandwich myself, haven't had time nor interest. Also, I have a Live with Walkman, which means some parts are not working on this ROM at the moment(from what I have read).

I use a MIUI ROM(link in my signature, click the ROM name), but this version is only for Live with Walkman. At least it works fine for me, only some small bugs that are not a problem for me.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] subbyhasan:
Hmmmmm... Not sure now whether to stick with 2.3 for now then go for the proper ICS update later in June or get ICS now with a few little bugs.

The MIUI ROM for XMP has quite a few problems such as data not working so don't think that is an option for me

Any other ICS ROMS or is that it?

Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
MIUI is ICS based, even though it's visual part and some other stuff are completely different.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] batman368:
for gingerbread i would definitely recommend Hybrom v16, completely stable, lighting fast, really good package.

for ICS: MiniCMsandwich by Kamarush, works really well, not as stable as Hybrom, but for ICS very acceptable.

any custom rom is better than stock, the least would be a rooted stock to get rid of all the bloatware, that really helps with speed AND battery.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] subbyhasan:
I obviously know how to root, but after rooting how do I get rid of the bloatware? Is there a thread made or a website I can you use that explains it?
