Hello everybody :)

I have HTC Sensation with original(no custom rom) ICS 4.0.3 and Hboot 1.27 version, i want to delete stock programs, which i don't need. I tried with revolutionary.io to root but it says that Hboot version is incompatible. So what can i do now? Is there any solution?

By the way, root and S-off is the same thing? :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LegendaryLengend:
Why don´t you check out the Sensation forum? = http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1109

What i know about the Stock ROM (3.32.401.5) if you have now a S-ON and UNROOTED device you won´t be able to gain root at the moment, sorry dude
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nafpliotis:

I have a problem I bought a HTC Sensation XE is there soft original HBOOT 1.29.000 4.0.3 HTC Sense 3.6 and software number 3.33.401.153.

I want to do root your phone with S-ON to S-OFF but because HBOOT 1.29.0000 I do not want to go as you can change the HBOOT read my question.

Early response thank you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ichigo_kurosaki:
HTCDEV-ulock your bootloader

yes, you can unlock your bootloader on the htcdev site. i had mine unlocked yesterday. planning to root so that i can install custom rom.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AwsmStar:
You have to use Juopunutbear S-OFF method on newest Hboots. You can also use 4-EXT Smart flash if you're S-ON. Hope this helps.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShahinTehShiz:
Hi all,

I'm currently on KA12 which is an ICS ROM, and running Darkforest ICS Kernel.

I would like to switch back to T.E.A.M Stock ROM, which is based on Gingerbread, and was wondering what steps would I need to do to go back?

Thanks in advance!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
The best thing to do is to return to stock using the appropriate ftf file first. Then install the GB ROM of your choice.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShahinTehShiz:
Would it be okay to flash the 2.3.4 .62 SE Stock firmware found here?:

http://xperiagamer.com/Stock-Roms/234-stock-firmware-for-root.html
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirRudolph:
That'll work.

Then flash your rom.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solomon4400:
ya you should also take advantage of nand droid backups. along with that one ftf u use you'll able to flash back and forth between roms (2.3.4/4.0.3) without loosing anything from previous roms you may have flashed. always do backups through cwm.

Anyone use this? I got a check engine light on my 02 toyota so I figured its time to have one of these puppies. Haven't hooked it up but Im looking for folks that have used it with the skyrocket...or really, any phone for that matter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CZ Eddie:
I don't know anything about the app, sorry.

But just in case you didn't know, AutoZone will check your engine codes for free. Probably other auto parts stores will do the same.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xavier6303:
Right but my car is getting close to 100k and I don't really want to have to go down to autozone for the diagnostic every time. I have received the PXL Kiwi bluetooth unit and I must say that Im in love with it. Will go great with my tablet and road trips. Works great with torque free version. I am able to read and clear codes along with monitoring any temp or measure regarding the motor I can think of.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Firedcylinder:
But you'd still have to go to autozone to get the part to fix the check engine light anyway, right? I'm glad you're enjoying your purchase though. Gives me one more thing I want to get.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sacberg:
I use this one works great for those re-occurring codes that really are not critical.

---------- Post added at 03:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 PM ----------

Ha ha.....just posted the same from Ebay.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xavier6303:
Well, not really...I can order the part online usually and for a discount most times...but sometimes I end up at pepboys anyways. :)

On a side note, I replaced the pre cat o2 sensor and now my car stalls idle and keeps going into open loop. The good thing is I can watch whats happening with torque and the obd2 connector so I have an idea what the problem is even though its not throwing a fault code. I did clear the fault code but I didnt reset the ecu. Im thinking it just needs to be reset and re-learn its values.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Thisrobot:
Yes torque and the cheapo Ebay obd2 adapter work with this phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Thisrobot:
If i'm not mistaken that sounds like a Subaru ecu :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xavier6303:
Not quite...its a toyota solara. I would love a subie though. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NiJunge:
Or use Mobilscan (mobilscan.dk) adapter and software from same company works great on my MR-S
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] polish_pat:
get a vgate adapter from ebay v1.5 for 25-30$ plus the premium otrque app, so for 30$ you get a great system for car diag

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/New-VGate-Mi...t=Motors_Automotive_Tools&hash=item3f0eb88d0a

works perfectly and all sensor work very well, had this for over a year and i dont reget it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] IndiNix:
OBD-II tool

I bought Torque as soon as it came out and its a great little tool and good fun but if you have serious diagnostic work to do the ScanXL packages are really solid and have licensed support for manufacturer specific PIDs.

A few years ago, before I had an android phone or torque existed. I picked up a scantool.net OBDLink bluetooth/usb adapter - they're a fair bit more expensive than the ebay units, but can read way more PID's per second, which probably isn't useful unless you're running a copy of the ScanXL software.

For day to day stuff Torq + ebay bt adapter make me feel dumb for spending all that cash, ug.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xavier6303:
I dunno about the ebay adapter but Im very happy with my plx. Sure I spent more but it got great reviews...maybe the other cheaper ones work but Im happy. Torque just fixed the themes too.
[HTC Desire S] chrisbasnett:
Just upgraded to the latest version of this rom after realising that the previous version appears to have a call quality distortion issue. From what I remember this does not apply 2.3.26, curious to see if any others are having the same issue?

Thanks in advance
[HTC One X] divyanshu308:
Hi everyone i purchased new One X.

My brother has an LG P500.

They both have the same micro usb pin chargers.

Can i Use them interchangeably?

The P500 has output rating 5 V and .7 amps

while the One X has 5 V and 1 amps.

Its just that this would help me keep one charger safe in case when other one dies.

Obviously i wont use if there is some technical incompatibility b/w the ratings :confused:

EDIT:

Used the lower mA one. It works fine but charging toooo slow.

Now I charge my P500 using HTC one only.

Faster charging.
[HTC One X] BLAST3RR:
You can use it for charging yes.. It will charge slower though.

You could get some messages saying there is not enough current on the charger to keep the phone powered and charging at the same time.

This could happen when doing energy-intensive tasks with multi-core utilization.

Just for recharging, it shouldn't be a problem.
[HTC One X] Tiersten:
HTC say to use only their official chargers but generally you're fine to use any USB charger that follows the Battery Charging Specification and has the same voltage and is similar or better in current capacity. The statement to only use HTC chargers it just to cover HTC if you do decide to plug it into an off spec charger which damages the phone.

I use HP Touchpad chargers (5V@2A) as they're just generic USB chargers and I've got several spares. The phone is perfectly happy charging from it.
[HTC One X] bimmerboii:
All manufacturers say that. But i always use whatever charger i have (nokia, sams ng etc). I just avoid using cheap chargers

they are :

Any way to deodex these as well?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
Check the error message for name of missing package, then include the jar on classpath by deodexing single file. Most likely minimode.jar, twframework.jar, sec_platform_library.jar, etc.

[Android General] The Apostle:
Well, I think you are assuming that ti whole world is a savvy tech freak like the members of this forum but the general masses don't care if their phone says samsung, LG or HTC. The general masses will never root or even install a custom launcher. The gen public will never us the phones to their current capabilities.

IMO Apple is in a whole different boat. Marketing savants that tell people how easy to use and friendly their devices are. They have built in traffic that heard together like sheep. Animal Farm anyone?

We know samsung makes stellar products but if they keep marketing in the US like they currently are we will continue to see a lack of buzz. Hell the GNex is one badass phone but people go Ino Verizon for a RZR and not a GNex... Marketing people - its a simple formula!

[Android General] GuestD0586:
Brand matters for the masses, or they'll buy cheap chinese stuff. And believe me, the hot topic in the tech world is none other than the S 2's successor.
[Android General] sk8er_boi47:
quite frankly , i think HTC (and hopefully LG ;)) will have a bit advantage as they would be kind of settled in the market (& possibly dropped their price by a bit) by the time SGS3 has been released. It will all depend on experience SGS3 really offers (other than the configuration on papers rite now), i have used both Samsung & HTC and i would select HTC anytime for best android experience, price is the strong factor keeping sammy ahead of others. So let’s wait & watch :)
[Android General] thebobp:
The Galaxy S series does have good brand-name value, though, maybe second only to the iPhone. Samsung may have realized that and taken a leaf out of Apple's book: allow the hype to take over. It has nothing to do with rooting or custom launchers, or geekiness.

I find the OP's story plausible. (Albeit exaggerating at times: consumers would and have bought the HTC One X.)
[Android General] UMGixxer:
I would hands down buy the SGS3 over the HTC ONe X if they were released together, but the fact of the matter is that I hate waiting on this ghost device with all these so called great specs and samsung's track record does not sit to well with me right now.

4.0.4

aokp_shooter_build31

k i flashed the wrong rom and i think the rom isnt even supported on 3d but i am useing it....

nothing against cms but i hate how when u instal them u cant get rid of them or it.. now that ive installed 4.0 i cant uninstall or install a different one, i cant even do a restore.. i can get to the restore menu and i can use the phone but i cant access any market apps to flash back wtf do i do to get this off my phone
[HTC EVO 3D] makavelisk:
This really needs to be in Q&A not developement.

With that being said....are you on hboot 1.5? How did you flash the rom??
[HTC EVO 3D] geek4u86:
hboot

im on hboot 1.5... and do u want me to repost in q&a ohh gui flash app
[HTC EVO 3D] makavelisk:
Im sure a mod will move it here soon.....So you are unlocked with S-On correct and havent done the hboot downgrade??

Did the rom you flash to have google+ on it....I might be able to walk you through the update.
[HTC EVO 3D] geek4u86:
im hboot 1.5 s-on but htc unlocked, i didnt do the downgrade because i cant seem to get a good copy of linux to work.... i installed one 32bit copy but then it was missing everything like sdk and drivers (expected drivers) just mainly a pain in the as...s so i was waiting for a better way around it... im computer savey and phone also i have cdma workshop (paid) and i might do the downgrade soon just seems like it will take forever as far as google stuff know i dont think so... i dont have a single ap.. when i downloaded the market from my phone it opened it but then closed it in a matter of secs, wont let me open
[HTC EVO 3D] closeone:
If you need Flash Image GUI, joeykrim (the developer) does give you a full download in his thread here.

By the way, the ROM you flashed should be completely compatible with your phone. If it's in the EVO 3D CDMA development forum, you should be fine flashing it.

What you probably didn't flash was the GAPPs zip. That's the one that will give you Market, Gmail, and other Google applications.

You should be able to still flash the GAPPs zip from your custom recovery (even though your on HBOOT 1.50).

EDIT: By the way, if you wish to still do the downgrade, check out the link in my signature. It is all set up for you (ready to boot, no extra drivers required).

~co~
[HTC EVO 3D] geek4u86:
k thanks ill try that... oh the browsers homepage was the roms and in the list of supported devices 4gevos on the list but not the 3d but i dont think i flashed the gapps, now what did u mean for the downgrade? u have a os file with all the drivers on it already??
[HTC EVO 3D] closeone:
The ROM you flashed was aokp_shooter_build31, correct?

Shooter is our phone model (HTC EVO 3D CDMA). Shooteru is the GSM version.

That ROM hasn't made it into the official list of AOKP ROMs yet. Looks like you flashed this one.

For the downgrade, you'll need to download two RUUs, 2.17 and 1.13. Yes, the device drivers for connecting the phone to the computer are built into the Toolkit. Full directions are in the thread (post #3). It uses Unknownforce's method, but helps to simplify the process.

~co~
[HTC EVO 3D] makavelisk:
Yeah with any AOSP rom you normally have to flash google apps on top. I would try what close said and get the GUI app, put it on you sd card, and install the apk then try dl another rom or the google app zip file.

ACtually that wont work if you dont have a way to install APK....give me a minute and then check your PM
[HTC EVO 3D] geek4u86:
k thanks to both of you and it works now, 4.0 really isnt bad i like it, but i am i think going to try to downgrade tonight. i have a laptop set up with Linux so hopefully i can get it done tonight, ill probable need a little advise so ill pm u...
[HTC EVO 3D] closeone:
You're welcome. :) If you decide to do the downgrade using the Live CD, you won't have to have Linux preinstalled (It's part of the Toolkit). Also, if you have questions about the CD while you're using it, I would suggest posting in the thread instead of PMing me. You'll likely get a response a lot quicker. ;)

~co~
[HTC EVO 3D] geek4u86:
k thanks again and if i dont need to install linux??... i can do it from win7 32bit. then imma start now
[HTC EVO 3D] closeone:
This is getting a little off topic, Especially for a post in the wrong forum. Just for the sake of keeping the forums clean, I am going to see if I can get this moved to the general section as Unknownforce has done with another off topic post.

Sorry. I'm technically not following forum rules myself by responding in this thread in the wrong forum. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to post in the HBOOT Downgrade Toolkit thread in my signature.

In answer to your question, no. You do not need to install Linux. The HBOOT Downgrade Toolkit is a bootable live CD which has a small Linux distro installed, as well as many of the tools you'll need to downgrade your phone. Check out my thread for details. There is a how-to in post #3.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stevessvt:
This isnt a knock against the Nexus, but somewhat against ICS in general. There are more than a few apps that are unavailable to me to download that I purchased previous to getting the Nexus. Navigon navigation being one of them, is unavailable to get from play store. There are a few others, too, a motorcycle game I wanted to buy just now isn't available for my Nexus. This is I think one of the very few pros of owning an apple product. If the app worked on ios 4, it will work on ios 5, and if it doesnt, an update is issued soon there after.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Blame the developer for not updating it then?

Alternatively, go to the web store and try to install it that way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spencer88:
The app developers haven't updated their apps yet. If you think about it it's to be expected. How many phones are running ICS out there compared to gingerbread?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Or those with 720p screens?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stevessvt:
OK, I guess that is the more correct direction to point the finger, the app developers, but I think google should lien on the developers some to get the apps working correctly, especially the big $$ ones. I have side loaded the Navigon app and its all messed up on ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Google can't force developers to keep their apps updated though. That said, the play store says it has ICS updates. It is more likely a resolution issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stevessvt:
I dont think the screen res is as big a deal at this point, there are several oddball size screens that apps look fine on. Droid X was one, 480X854, and everything was fine on it. Plus there are several 720P phones out there now.

Also on the Navigon app, its the voice that was messed up, studdering and repeating itself over and over.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Do those 720p devices have support?

480x854 isn't an oddball resolution; a good chunk of Motorola handsets and some Sony as well use this resolution.

http://androidcheck.com/listing/resolution/480x854/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stevessvt:
Well, again to go back to the Navigon app, reading on the play store it seems to work on the HTC Rezound ok,...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cabal_:
Like, take their houses and stuff?

Sorry, couldn't help it. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spencer88:
This is true, I forgot to mention that.

It's easy for apple to make it easy because they've had the same screen size and resolution for over 2 years now, going on 3 if they don't change it up this summer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HinotoriBR:
I'm sorry, but blaming the developers is a far cry from the truth...

Lets face it, Google doesn't even prioritize developers... While iOS developers have access to preview versions of the next iOS, to start to debug in advance, that work on the latest available generation iDevice, google doesn't do that... So, while iOS developers had many months to debug and test and fix their apps (and at the same time, they did not have to buy a new phone), most developers need to wait until the first phone with the new Android O/S is released, and then it is like running against the time, as you need to grab a new phone, bla bla bla... And no, an emulator doesn't really help you with games and other apps that are high performance...

It is a shame that some big companies like E.A. seems to get no interest into the Galaxy Nexus (as the lack of good games like Real Racing 2, Peggle, PvsZ is astonishing for a multi million dollar company), but, as far as most developers are concerned, it is not fair to compare iOS and Android. One tries to give all the tools so the developers are ready for the launch, the other, meh... Gives close to nothing and all you earn is a big surprise with a new O/S where some things you were used to use doesn't work, and it is up to you to grab a new device, specifically when it was already launched and you have dozens of angry consumers telling that you suck... :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I have a friend who is an Android developer and somehow has managed to keep device compatibility with each OS release without ever owning the device.

So interesting theory, but it is at least partially a BS copout. Especially in this thread, where ICS updates have been made to the program, and yet the GN has been out since November and has no support. That is of no fault from Google.

Also, developers that are not willing to spend money, to make money, suck anyway. I think Navigon can afford some Galaxy Nexus devices.
