[HTC EVO 3D] abdeviation:
1. Congratulations.

2. Most of here probably don't know what is available in India. I doubt there is much of a difference though since it's probably the GSM version.

3. You can buy an extended battery. Google for Seido EVO3D battery. You can also just buy additional batteries from Ebay which you can carry in your pocket in case you need juice.

4. There are complete guides in the development section of these forums.

5. You can download 3D movies through the HTC Watch application. You can just put movies you own on the SD card and watch them.

6. Probably not, warez and stealing software is not something xda-dev rules allows and should not be discussed here. Besides, any app you get will need updates which you won't get if you stole it.

7. Don't be ridiculous

8. Read the forums, there is much to learn.
[HTC EVO 3D] bricker1:
you are in luck when it comes to rooting there is now a one click method for htc evo it can be found on this forum you must first read everything you can on the subject you will then understand the benefits and dangers of rooting take your time money is hard earned

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Socratic1:
First I want to say that I installed this ROM about 4 days ago, and I feel like I have just upgraded my Fassy to a Galaxy2 model. Everything runs faster and smoother. Great Job to the developers.

I have one question that I havn't found an answer to:

Under the ROM Control settings there is a category called start-up tweaks.

Under this there Tweaks to do among other things Zip-align APK's, Clear Data cache at boot, etc.

My question is that even though the "Enable start-up tweaks" is checked, and the ROM Control and NST Tools both have Superuser rights, if I check say the Zip-Align box it will check, but then if I back out a menu and come back it is no longer checked. Did I miss something or are these features not yet implemented in the ROM?

Thanks and Great work
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
honestly i think those startup tweaks cause more lag...i leave them off.

Hi guys,

Been away for a while and would like to ask U guys...

I have an stock rooted i9020t , and yesterday received the 4.0.4 OTA update notification , saying it was already downloaded and ready to install. I chose to do it later , and would like to know the bets way to:

How to backup my current romset, so I can get back to it if something get wrong?

How can I backup the downloaded 4.0.4 OTA Rom/Update before the install? Is this the full 4.0.4 ROM or just an upgrade? (Have 2.3.6 at moment).

When I reboot my phone will receive the notification again? (Haven t done it yet)

Thnx for any help!

Is there an extended battery for the skyrocket which does not require a cover? I thought I saw one on the samsung website or something. Anyone know?

I'm also looking at that one, tell me what you thing when you're done testing :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
I won't be surprised when it doesn't even last as long as the stock SR battery
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
Same. More mah doesnt mean better lifetime expectancies, quality of battery and ability to hold charge are HUGE factors
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] greekunit690:
The battery just arrived I am a bit skeptical as to if it will fry my phone in the past friends have bought Chinese batteries and did the same. Any one have any input ? Maybe I should hook it up to a multimeter..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
I wouldn't even have ordered a cheap chinese battery. I would throw it in the garbage and get a nexus extended battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] greekunit690:
Yeah except foe the fact that the back cover looks like crap when its closed......
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
I take it you use ghost armor or use it naked? Yeah, it does bulge but I use a case so I don't see it. I never actually needed longer battery life anyways, though. I grabbed it cuz it was $25 and now I have a spare. With oem battery mine lasts well over 24 hours with 5 hours of screen on time, auto brightness, emails, weather and everything else syncing. I would never run a cheapo battery though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Primenay:
greekunit690 does the one you ordered require a different battery cover? Or is it just the same size? Samsung really should make an extended battery. Actually all cell phone companies need to make the batteries bigger like the driod razr maxx
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] greekunit690:
Same exact size. Testing it now I hooked it up to a volt meter and seemed ok so ill be back with an update in a couple days
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aspexil:
I've been using this battery since Feb 17th. The stock battery would only get me through the work day and even then sometimes barely. Now I easily can go through the evening with about 30% left before I plug it in for the night. Once I forgot and it was at 1% the next morning which the stock never would've lasted that long.

I wasn't aware we could use the Nexus extended battery. Since I use a case I may switch to that. If I can find one at a good price on Prime.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] creedicd:
How the heck do you get 5 hours of screen time and have it last 24 hours? Even with the nexus battery juice defender running I can get maybe 3-4 hours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Juice defender is sucking down your battery. I run Gideons script as well as some other mods. Easily go over 24 hours, usually 2 days. With the extended battery I have gone over 8 hours screen on.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fryingpan0613:
I have the pro version and have tried on a few different roms. I placed the EL26 TAR on my sd card, open the app, click kernel, navigate to my rom folder, select the kernel, and then it FC.

Has any one else experienced this or know any workarounds? I don't want to be tied to my computer and it sucks I bought this app and cant get it to work.

I am currently on Nocturnal Venum ICS....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tkemack:
I would try moving the tar file to internal storage then try again. If not, I would re download the tar
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Try selecting the option open file, find the el26 tar and select it. Simple but might work. Besides that, try clearing app data under manage apps or uninstall reinstall.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
I also recommend trying this way.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fryingpan0613:
I did try clearing data and also reinstalling before. I will try the open file and placing on internal memory.

I didnt put it on internal memory to begin with because I wanted it to be able to switch between ICS roms or kernels on the go, and if its on internal it would be erased everytime I flashed a new rom.

EDIT: Open file worked, thank you!!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
the kernel you saved in your internal sdcard wouldn't be deleted everytime whenever you change the rom or kernel. It's just a data.

Regardless of what - the kernel file is placed at internal sd or external sd, I always flash the kernel using Mobile odin and I always use the open file option from the the first instead of selecting the kernel and choosing kernel file.

If you select 'open file' and select the kernel file, then mobile odin will place the file to the kernel portion. This would be the way that you may avoid the trouble. I've seen many people who messed up thier phone by miss-placing the file.

Additional:

I think you already know about this - depending on the file you are flashing, mobile odin automatically FC'd and reboot to apply the change. Depending on the Kernel, mobile odin could reboot the system or just stay at the same place where you flash the file. If mobile odin is jut FC'd but no reboot, there's something wrong. But it reboot the phone, then it's normal. Just hold power + pwr up key to check the recovery mode or check the version after the phone reboot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fryingpan0613:
I had never got it to work before so I wasn't sure how it worked, but I was flashing el26 so I knew it should reboot. Before I was clicking kernel then selecting the file so I was doing it wrong.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m.sabra:
okay,am not very familiar with TWRP but your problem doesn't seem that big,you wiped the /system which should not affect your USB storage data (even if you wiped the USB storage it's not a problem),try to boot into the bootloader (volume up + power button) then go to recovery,mount the USB storage and put a ROM on it,then just flash the ROM and your device should boot up normally,i think you weren't stuck at the bootanimation since when you flash a new ROM the first boot could take from 5 to 10 minutes.

i usually do a clean install before flashing a new ROM (format system,data,cache,boot) and the device just boot up normally after flashing the new ROM so it's not a problem if you wiped your system just flash a new ROM.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psg190:
I did this same thing a few weeks ago. I just had to reinstall everything (including the recovery) from fastboot. Worked like a charm.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockdudecam2:
I used the nexusshack tut to root my nexus had no problems.

You could go into recovery, mount usb storage, find the clockworkmod directory and copy that to your pc..

do a full data wipe and flash a new rom, then install rom manager flash CWM recovery . move the clockworkmod directory back to your phone. boot into recovery and restore you backup.

Just an idea .. not sure if it could work..(take no responsibility is it doesnt)
[LG Optimus 2x] nevolin:
I'm having troubles with stuttering when I'm trying to play 1080p blue ray content over HDMI. I have tried stock 2.3 and CM7 both with similar results. I noticed that when I overclock to 1.4ghz stuttering is less. My question is how is possible to play without stuttering?
[LG Optimus 2x] KamikazeRO:
to me it worked with no problem

i have a friend who works in a service shop who tested it for me

he tested on an LG TV

maybe it`s because of the TV?

i also put a video filmed with the phone on my Samsung TV worked ok also
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Well I think "1080p Blue Ray" is too much. :p

I usually convert my vids to 720p mp4, it plays flawless that way. The phone is not a dedicated video player ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
O, wait, I'm assuming you're using the stock video player, no? Cause if you're not, that may be the issue.

Other players in the market use software decoding, while LG's stock use hardware decoding. Given LG has full access of the Tegra's code, it allows the player to make full use of the chipset's power.
[LG Optimus 2x] KamikazeRO:
i think i might know. it`s stuttering because the amount of data needed to be processed by the phone is too big. since you said it`s blue-ray.

also the vid is probably big. more than 8GB. since the standard format used by the phones is FAT. you probably converted it to NTFS or exFAT?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MattMJB0188:
Need an AT&T LTE device and its either this or the Note. I was going for the SkyRocket HD but it seems it might have been axed. Should have been released by now. Is this phone still hot? I had the Original Galaxy S II but decided I wanted LTE and a bigger display. Pros and cons of buying this phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Swiftks:
I'd at least wait until next weekend (4/22). Looks like AT&T will be releasing a few phones (like HTC One X). T-Mobile is also supposed to be getting its G-Nexus on the same day... hoping this means AT&T will be getting skyrocket HD (its version of the G-Nexus). I've been holing out for the Skyrocket HD too. The lack of info. is very frustrating.

Here are some random thoughts as I'm writing this:

- Would have already bought Galaxy Note, but damn that thing is so big. Sitting at home, I'm like yeah, I should get it. Run by the local AT&T, and look at in person again, I'm like, Jesus, can't even work it with one hand.

- Latest rumor of April 22nd release for HTC One X... wow, pretty phone, nice specs. Wait, only 16GB internal storage & NO micro sdcard support... WTF!!! Really??? Well with 8gb of music and a least 1 or 2 nandroid backups at any given time, that's a no go... shame, b/c I would have got it.

- Galaxy SIII... yeah, sure, no brainer... stupid U.S. carriers, you know that they won't be releasing till November, like last year; even if it's released worldwide this summer... sorry, but I'm not waiting another 6 months.

- Skyrocket HD.... umm perfect, scren size = 4.65 = big, but still able to handle with one hand. HD screen, nice specs, I want it! WHEN THE ARE YOU RELEASING IT AT&T?!?!?!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MattMJB0188:
Your right. It would make sense for them to release it with the One X. I wonder how much the SkyRocket will go for off contract?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] odeccacccp:
Skyrocket is the best.

HD one will just eat up battery more and same thing anyway.

Note is to be to be a phone, get it only if you wanna be cool, new Iphone 5 will be just like the Note.

But by the specs. Skyroket is the best
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Swiftks:
Skyrocket HD has a larger battery than the original Skyrocket to accommodate the larger screen size and HD screen... at least according to reports back at CES in January anyway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MattMJB0188:
That's the phone I want. Other than a larger display and larger battery how else is this phone different? Same processor right? So we can flash the same roms for the old SR?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] luenutb:
Agree very right
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CZ Eddie:
Supposedly ATT gets the Galaxy Nexus soon. Have not seen any indication on how soon.

The HTC One X comes out this or next month. It's a great alternative to the Skyrocket. I would still choose the Skyrocket over it though, based on personal preferences. Would be a close decision though.

If it were me, I'd wait four weeks to see what will be released. If the Skyrocket HD gets released, then I'd choose that one. Then the Galaxy Nexus, then One X.

No sense waiting for the SG III because even if it's released next month by Samsung, you won't see it available from ATT until October/November/December time frame.

If you like theming and custom ROM's then know that it always takes several weeks after a phone's release before you get anything decent. Maybe a month or two before you get a nice kernel.

Same for cases and accessories. Though these come a bit quicker.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Swiftks:
See, I haven't seen any reports on AT&T getting a G-Nexus. From everything I've read or seen, the Skyrocket HD is supposed to be AT&T's version of the G-Nexus... screen size being the same and all as that of the G-Nexus.

If it were in fact true that AT&T is getting a G-Nexus (which I'm not saying it is or isn't), then that would be really cool, since the Nexus line always gets the latest updates, little to no bloatware, etc.

Like I said a above, T-Mobile is supposed to be releasing their version of the G-Nexus next weekend (4/22).... hoping that AT&T will release something else to compete with it, other than the HTC One X; which isn't a bad one in and of itself... I just can see the reasoning for not allowing a micro-sdcard????
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Software Guy:
If you need a phone now, the skyrocket is great. The note is to big and I suspect for me at least the HD version may be to big.

I havent had any issues with the Skyrocket and the development is very active if you don't want to wait for Samsung to roll out ICS.

Just my .02 worth.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CZ Eddie:
Yeah, who knows. There is no official confirmation. Just rumors from people "high up" or something I guess.

http://easternmorningherald.com/att-may-possibly-release-galaxy-nexus-variant/123917/

If ATT does release a Nexus and it has 1.5ghz procs and 32gb internal, I would get it over the Skyrocket.
