[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Nick N:
Earlier this week the LCD on my daughter's Flyer started having vertical and horizontal lines on it, now you cannot see anything but colors! Wife contacted HTC and they are sending a box to put it in and ship to them for repair. Is there any way I can get this thing back to stock before then? I have abd installed and the Flyer recognizes commands, I have TeamViewer and the PG41IMG on the microsd card. Help! :(

Update: I was able to successfully run and complete the following RUU exe:

RUU_Flyer_HC_S_HTC_WWE_Wifi_3.55.1114.31_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.07_M_release_227869_signed

Now what?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
What was the status of your flyer prior, meaning a off or what not
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Nick N:
S-Off and rooted.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
GB or hc
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Does it look the same in hboot
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Nick N:
HC. I cannot see a thing whether in bootloader, recovery, or the home screen. :(

Need proper commands to s-on this thing and get it ready to return.

Using the guide here...

Where do I put the file at?

Flyer:

fastboot flash hboot flyer_downgrader.nb0
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
In same I folder as fastboot command
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Nick N:
That is what I thought but last night before I went to bed I was not able to communicate with the Flyer. :(

I think it was because I flashed the stock HC RUU - that would have made the USB debugging option unchecked right?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Yes I believe so
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Nick N:
So I am thinking my only option at this point is to grab a rooted stock ROM that has USB debugging checked by default, rename it to PG41IMG.zip, place on root of SD card, somehow get it to flash, then start over using the previously mentioned thread (assuming I can reestablish connection with the Flyer).

:mad::mad::mad:

Or just say forget it, send it back to HTC and hope that they don't care. :confused: I have seen threads that say they don't.

Thanks for the help. :cool:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jsimonson0:
HTC doesn't care if we root. The phone carriers care, but not HTC. At least according to the HTC personnel I talked to at the last HTC promo event in Chicago.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Nick N:
That makes me feel better. The rep did mention to my Wife that they will have access to everything on the device, such as pictures, videos, apps, etc. Wife said it sounded more like a disclaimer than anything (See the post in General about what pics one guy found on his refurb :eek:). Besides, it is the screen that is messed up, and it seems like it was bad luck as opposed to excessive wear and tear or accidental damage. So for the record it is being send back with the stock ROM and unlocked (S-Off) bootloader. Crossing my fingers that they will cover it. It is a Best Buy refurb that I got from Tech4Less in November/December 2011.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Nick N:
Shipping it back today... crossing fingers. :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Nick N:
Repair center in Houston received my Flyer yesterday (they included a 2 day return shipping label)... received an email last night about 7 saying that the Flyer has been repaired and is in their warehouse awaiting shipment back to me!!! :D:D:D
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] chaukeng:
any chance this, would be a software issues and a hard reset would clear this problem?

my fren's flyer looks exactly the same with yours albeit witha more colourful stripes

thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CatalystWon:
My I9000m came with UGKC1 (2.2) and 3-button Recovery.

When I updated via Kies from to UGKG3 (2.3.3), the 3-button Recovery changed to a 2-button procedure, (Recovery: Vol Up

&

Vol Down, + Power), (Download: Vol Down + Power). ie:

HOME button removed from procedure

.

With XWJW1 (2.3.6) firmware, the

3-button

procedure is back.

1) Is is possible to get the 2-button Recovery procedure back without going backwards to UGKG3? The 2-button is much easier only requiring one hand.

2) Where is the Recovery button sequence set? In the kernel or elsewhere?

Why when I reboot the tablet it goes to recovery mode?

And why the recovery mode screen resolution is wrong?

And when I rotate the tablet the screen goes blank for a second?

I use AOKP rom and before I've installed this rom I had HC. I installed ClockworkMod Touch Recovery 5.8.2.1 and then flashed this rom.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahex4:
Hi guys, i am looking for a sense live wallpaper for my CM7 wildfire, I found this on the play store, but wasn't working,

And I would also like to get an ICS live wallpaper of the screen size of wildfire, every ICS LWP i found was found out to be cropped when displayed

Please help me if you know any one.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerpyWebber:
Most live wallpapers on the Wildfire have two issues, which prevent regular use of most:

-They're slow and sap performance (due to the Wildfire not having a GPU)

-They either show up cropped, or not at all (due to the Wildfire having a low screen resolution)

However, if you are insistent on the use of them, look for live wallpapers that match the Wildfire's resolution, and, ideally, simple ones that aren't so processor-intensive.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CZ Eddie:
So how long does it take a newbie to grab someone's custom ROM and then theme it out so everything is in red or blue or some other color?

I'm asking because a friend wants me to flash ICS on his TMO GSII but he wants all red and there aren't any red themes yet.

If it only takes an hour to learn, I'd do it for the price of a few beers. :D

It will take u over an hour just to find the right combo of apktools to decompile and recompile your apks. Then u have to know about editing xmls. And changing icons.u also need to figure out what does what. What framewoek-res controls. And systemui and twframework-res.

Its in no way easy . There is not file inside the apk that says. Change thisbcolor code for the status bar . Theres tons of xmls. Tons of icons. Def no simple feat.

It will taje a good bit of reasearch. Definately much much more then an hour. Hours and hours. And u have to understand how to use the tools. And commands for them

And ics is a pain in the butt. Because most things are xml not icon. And diff apktools work diff for everyone on ics..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
I was wondering if anyone else's mouse pointer stopped working. Track pad still works just fine. I use it to scroll up and down pages, but the mouse pointer never shows up. Did I acidently turn off a setting? If so, does anyone know how to get it working again. I have tried putting the tablet in it's dock about 15 times, but it's still a nogo. Thanks in advance.

I found the answer myself by playing with almost every setting and button lol. Apperently the button on top of the #3 turns off the trackpad. I learn something new everyday. Mods, you can close this thread.
[Motorola Droid 4] gaudenti:
The idea of Motocast (access files on home computer from phone) seems really useful. I see there is also an app called SugarSync. Has anyone tried both and like one better than the other?

I know Dropbox is also available, but I don't want cloud storage. I want to get the files on my home PC. Or can Dropbox also do this?

Yes, I should try both and decide myself. But my current phone isn't very current and I'm not eligible for an upgrade for 16 days, 4 hrs, 13 minutes, 36 seconds. :) So until then, I'm stuck with just browsing forums and looking through play.google

Thanks much for any replies . . .
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
SugarSync is also a cloud service. It stores all of your synced files on their servers, and then syncs it to your device.

I have no idea how Motocast works, since I just use SugarSync (heh :D, paid user even!) but if you are against cloud storage for whatever reason (privacy, etc), Motocast might be a better choice.
[Motorola Droid 4] gaudenti:
Thanks for the reply, podspi.

I installed Motocast on my home computer last night and setup one folder for testing. I logged into Motocast on my work computer this morning. I was able to open files from my home computer at work! Pretty cool! I assume it works as well on a Droid.

I have read more about SugarSync. Looks like it can do the same! You can put files on their cloud, buy you can also use your computer as a "personal cloud". I have nothing against cloud storage, but I would rather be able to access all my home files without having to put them in cloud storage first. My home computer is always on so that should work out for me.
[Epic 4G General] lmf:
well flashing to pageplus was really easy through QPST and getting the MIN/phone number from kittywireless to do the OTA flash.

I know we have Pageplus, Cricket, Virgin Mobile, Boost, and MetroPCS to flash our Epic 4G other than Sprint as a carrier. My question is, other than pageplus and cricket, the rest needs donor phones? I was checking out virgin mobile, because the 3g speeds in chicago looks good and the price is right for me, and the $25 plan is pretty good stuff.

Most of the folks here are getting Crickets unlimited $55 plans, but I mostly use wifi, and I want a little data for here and there, and also I dont use a lot of minutes since I mostly use sip/voip via wifi.

For the services that require a donor phone, does it usually have to be a android or smartphone? Not the cheap flipphone with wap you see at walgreens, cvs ? Seems like to switch over to Boost, MetroPCS, Virgin, it would cost at least $50-$70 for a donor phone.. So im wondering if theres a cheap alternative.

And regarding cricket, I was looking at their pamplet and regarding their paygo service, $1 a day unlimited calls/data whenever you use it, I was told by online sales chat that I need to activate that service at a local store. Is that unlimited mobile WAP type data? Or 3g data? Kind of confusing..

I already have my QPST ready to go, save the file ready to write when I get my MIN/phone number to flash my epic 4g. does their online activation provide a phone number so I can use to prepare QPST and flash my phone with the roaming file etc. and do a OTA activation? Or anyone know of some online dealer like kitty that does that and provide the phone number to you? I called a few stores around here, and they just tell me they dont deal with non cricket phones, or "know" how to activate non cricket phones. I guess they just dont want to waste time dealing with a customer not spending big bucks...

Thanks guys, and no need to explain about anything legal or illegal, everything posted is for educational purposes or fictional writing and reading jk:P
[Epic 4G General] rocket321:
Along the same lines - anyone know of a site that compares all the MVNO/Prepaid services for cost/features?

I know some folks out there are getting crazy good deals - Virgin seems like a good way to go although I think they raised their plan to $35 recently. That is still good for basically the same service sprint provides sans VZ roaming. I have only heard of getting Virgin/Boost through a donor phone and as you said they are selling for quite a bit simply because lots of people are buying them to use as donor phones so the price goes up.

Hopefully some others will chime in with some good options, good luck!
[Epic 4G General] Shinydude100:
I can only vouch for Virgin Mobile..

Being someone who volunteers with only donations as a source of income, I can tell you that while it isn't cheap, it was still do-able and affordable, (Even for me!)

You save according to street smart vs convenience. There are overhead expenses that are residual and one-time when making the switch.

On Virgin Mobile, you need an Android Smartphone, preferably one that can be read, or you may be left out in the cold with nobody being able to assist you very far.

Seeing that Virgin Mobile stores weren't anywhere around me, I simply bought one from across the states for 68$, A Virgin Mobile Samsung Intercept. Costs will vary, with the most convenient method being walking into Wal-Mart and buying a brand new one for $100, or so.

Now, say you want to keep your current number, you'll need to keep the old company's bill paid, as well as pay for the first month of your new Virgin Mobile Phone, to port the number over.

After that is done, you need to pay up the 35$ cost to start up your first month of Virgin Mobile. You can then end your ex-carrier, without worries.

From there, you follow the guide I wrote up on Virgin Mobile, and enjoy your Samsung Epic 4G on Virgin Mobile with CM9 Beta 2. ;)

Or you could do another company like boost and add more steps to the process.
[Epic 4G General] lmf:
Ouch so you pretty much verified the cons of switching to virgin due to the use of donor phones. This is probably a good deal for most people that has virgin for their area and the plans are pretty cheap. The pamphlet i saw has a $25 plan and $35 which i think includes 1500mins and 30gb data. People who needs this should talk to ^^^ I thought about this route but want to see other alternatives due to my circumstances

So what about cricket? Is anyone on paygo plan or the $1 once you make 1 phone call or use data which allows you unlimited usage for the day. I barely use my pageplus minutes and use sip for phone calls through wifi. I dont text because i have a thing about obsessive texting and being anti social so i rather talk on the phone or face to face. So the paygo plan looks attractive as i could be using crickets service 10 to 15 days out of the month. But when i was at walgreens looking at pamphlets and seen mobile data instead of 3g data so i wanted to confirm those who used the per day prepaid plans that you get 3g data. Also is it $1 or $2 a day with the data.

pageplus working great on cm9 but for talk text. Data is slow and expensive around 100kbit/s.

Kinda OT but for the member above, you seem very knowledgable and appreciate your reply because i understand and appreciate your help for folks that dont have the time to figure it out. My question is when im on cm9 and even tho7ugh i disabled my sprint profiles in qpst, if i turn on 4g it connects to sprint still. Is that a eeprom preprogrammed deal and not removable? Not like i want to but im interested in figuring out how that works. I know it connects and you do get a dhcp addy and a gateway and pair of dns addys. Obviously its not usable but is there any info on how retains its instructions to connect to sprint when you enable 4g?

And again if anyone know someone online that can activate the cricket paygo service and provide a min/phone number after paying for the $15 activation so i can ota activate? Or does cricket provide it when you do it online on the website?
[Epic 4G General] tf1078:
well I switched my friends epic and wife's to straight talk with the doner phone that costs 5 bucks on Walmart website. We are on the vzw side of straight talk and the 3g speeds are pretty good. The only kicker for the epic is you need a doner and a vzw phone to get the 3g info to place on your epic. My wife and I pay 3 months at a time and since we live in Cali no tax which brings the total cost down to 42 a month for all unlimited. The only thing that doesn't work right out of the gate is mms but the same is true for cricket with the epic. Service has been great and the coverage is the same as vzw prepaid. There's a tut on how to do it by justan in the general section.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luuthian:
I'm just wondering if anyone else uses their Nexus for gaming, and what kind of life they're getting.

I'm using Android Revolution with the franco kernel. I was playing Majesty (hardly an intensive game) and in 15min it accounted for 17% of what drained the battery. I need to play a game more intensely to see what's normal, but that seems like a heavy drain.

Anyone have a heavy gaming night or two with the phone and know about how long the phone will last? I'm using the extended battery, but even then I'd wager you would see 1-2 hours of gaming at best, depending on what kind of game you're playing.

Looks like I'm still waiting on a phone with awesome battery life for gaming :/. My iPhone came close, but I would never trade this phone for my iPhone when it comes to the overall experience. Any tips for getting this thing to last longer, or is it what it is?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I would imagine battery life for gaming will be approximately half the screen time you get for normal usage. I usually get 4-5 hours screen time normal usage so if played wind up Knight or similar I would expect around 2 hours time. You can stretch it out more if you take breaks and let phone and battery cool down. The hotter your battery the more juice it leaks. Playing with a fan on will help a little also. Undervolting would help some in this situation. And I would imagine a game like ssolitaire you would only lose about 10-20% of your normal usage screen time. Playing with brightness down all the way will probably be the biggest help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darrendm:
3 hours max I'd imagine, most likely less.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luuthian:
Damn. Thanks. Looks like I'll need a tablet for planes and other travel :(.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pewpewbangbang:
Yea, I wouldn't buy an android device if you wanted to just do some heavy gaming on it.

Vita would be best :) for real mobile gaming

But iOS would be the best if you wanted a smartphone/tablet for gaming
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EniGmA1987:
I get between around 2 - 3 when fully charged and gaming non-stop. A lot of that is screen drain, so if possible turn your brightness down really low. Also it helps if you turn your CPU down to only 1GHz or so. Performance is still fine there but it helps on battery. Be sure and undervolt as much as possible too.

And dont use Franco's 512MHz GPU kernel.

Personally, I use the Glados kernel and overclock the MPU to 112%. Set the minimum speed as 392MHz, and max speed of 1GHz. Undervolt the 392 step to 925mv, and underclock the 1GHz step to 1175mv. Set the GPU to 384MHz and undervolt that as well. Also undervolt the IVA. This will give you good performance because your memory and bus are overclocked to help feed the GPU better, so you dont need a huge core speed for the same performance. Also the big undervolting will help your battery a lot. This is one of the biggest reasons I like Glados, you can adjust voltage for anything and not just the CPU.

If you want an Android gaming device, look into the Transformer Prime and dock. You should be able to get around 6-7 hours of gaming life on that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luuthian:
I see... I'm surprised the screen is that much of a power suck. Thanks for the heads up though. I'm pretty sure Franco's Milestone 2 Kernel doesn't overclock the GPU anymore. I might just switch anyways since Glados seems to be the better kernel based on what you've said. I'm just worried that messing with voltages will ruin my battery or the phone.

2-3h is about what I seem to get though, so I suppose this usage is normal. I wasn't expecting a gaming device so I'm not crushed. I was just hoping to see better performance gains during gaming with my extended battery. Ah well... As you've all said, I need a tablet if I want a portable gaming device. Don't really want a 3DS or Vita. I'd prefer a platform that does more than simply gaming. Still in love with this phone. It does everything I need. Just doesn't cover the rare bouts of excessive gaming I might take part in ;).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Have you considered an external battery pack. I have a 2800mah that charges slow and is mainly backup but I think the bigger ones like 5000mah and up can charge faster thus helping playing time. But yeah the vita and 3ds have about the same time off charger so gnex is a lot more versatile. Maybe an iPhone 5 or equivalent iPod might give you playing time you want with bigger screen.

---------++++---------

iPhone. helping computer illiteracy become popular since 2007.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luuthian:
When you put it that way... Yeah. Kind of sad that the more modern handhelds have similar screen time to a cellphone, and they do a hell of a lot less.

Ah well. We'll see what the future brings. My hope is that more phones would adopt a RAZR MAXX mentality, but who can say.

Hi,

I have a C10 SBK2 Transformer and I`m rooted it using UNLOCKROOT via usb.

I installed the ROM Manager and CWM in order to install the Android Revolution HD ROM, but everytime I reboot into recovery mode the tablet loads the ICS system and doesn`t load the CWM.

Does anybody know why it isn`t booting into recovery?

Thanks in advance
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomTcom:
Not sure but if you have a terminal app try using reboot -r or whatever switch tells it to reboot to recovery.

Alternatively until you figure it out use rom toolbox app. There is a function to boot to recovery.

To me it sounds like you don't have permissions somewhere. The root method you did might not have worked.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goatshocker:
Dont use ROM Manager. Theres an app on these forums simply called "recoveryInstaller". Thats what you should be using.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theH4mmer:
Hi to all,

I have a similar problem.

I've use unlockroot to gain root permission on my tablet. I used root check basic to check if I have gained root access and it said yes.

So I've installed ROM Manager from Google Play and installed clockworkmod recovery (before "standard", after "touch"). When I try to boot into recovery mode, I found an android opened with a red exclamation point on it.

So I have tried RevcoveryInstaller.apk, but when I execute this app, it return this error: "You are not rooted".

Any suggestion?
