Can someone post here the apk for the movie maker app. Some of the roms have it. But others do not. It would be highly appreciated if someone can bless us today. Thank you very much.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] xriderx66:
Just download a ROM that does have it (im not sure which do and which don't) and extract it from system/app/ and put it in your system/app/

fix permissions.

Thanks, just want other HTC sensation newcomers to enjoy their sensation just as much as i have.. Buying the sensation/xe is the first step.. Rooting and flashing ROM is the next step:-) Cheers~ and happy rooting!

Some feedback to your thread

Hi, i wanted to give some feedback about this.

Regarding the content of your post, you might want to correct some things you've wrote that make the guide not so simply but confusing and inaccurate... sheer constructive criticism.

"Download firmware 3.30 for the related CID and MID.". If you are pretending to guide someone on how to flash any "newly" released ICS ROM you need to download and flash 3.32 firmware, not 3.30.

"This phone MID is modelid: PG5813000 and CID is cidnum: HTC__044. So if new kernel appear in the future, be sure to download from this category only.". You meant your specific phone, right?. Every guy out there has a different phone and more likely a different CID. There is a CID thread just in case you want to check out some of the available CIDs. Also, (and even more confusing) CID and model aren't related in any ways to kernel or firmware:confused:, what do you mean with "a new kernel appear in the future"? we have new kernels almost every 2 days from faux, sebastian, show-p and other developers, and what category are you talking about specifically?:confused:

In the third point you wrote It will now trying to root phone. Wait and the phone will restart a few times. Revolutionay tool is intended to S-OFF the device, not rooting. Then your guide isn't about how to root the phone as the thread title says ... i think this is the guide noobs are actually looking for.

If you are quoting or using content from others posts the correct thing to do is to give proper credit to the author i.e: Mike1986., authors of revolutionary tool, madmaxx among others.

I'm speaking for myself here and i want to ask you kindly to credit my work in the things you've pretty much copied literally from my thread [GUIDE][APR.16.12] How to flash ICS 3.32 firmware | flash/update ARHD 6.6.x ICS ROM, first post, steps 4 and 5.

I'm reffering to steps 18 to 37 in your guide which are 99% the exact same words i've wrote in my guide. I've spent some time and effort writing that guide, While i don't see why you wanna re-write my guide If you want to use my work it's ok, i don't mind, but please at least give proper credit and don't go around saying is your guide and your work when 50% of it's copy-pasted from my thread.

Also i've taken down the download link of 4EXT recovery touch flashing tool (steps 11 and 12 in your post) which i've modded and packed myself and it's also posted in my guide, if you want the dropbox download link i can give it to you, but again, proper credit.

You've open a thread in Android development section, and this is clearly not a development thread. Pleas ask a mod to move your thread to the correct section. Nevermind, thread has been moved already. Thanks to the mods.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] Keupie:
Couldn't agree more, it's not that we don't appreciate the effort but there are enough guides on this forum and all the info is there for grabs, you just have to find it. There's no need to create new guides because people don't use the search button.
[HTC Sensation] Leemur89:
Hello everyone.. Not that i wanted to copy any of your work and take credit for it, as i have never seen your guide.. I am sorry if i have offended you in any way.. I practically just wrote down what my friend told me over the phone, as he was explaining to me the proper way to root as well as put in a custom ROM on my sensation. I did not in any way meant or did not know that i was copying anybody's work. As far as i know, i only wrote this guide to help beginners, as i was once one. The only guide i have read was mike's guide on the front page of the ARHD thread, which at first i did not really understand. Another thing, it's not that i didnt want to give mike credit and take all the credit for my own, as you can see i am using's Mike's ARHD banner as well as i have given links to his thread. As for your guide, i will rephrase everything if it makes you feel better:-) cheers mate~ The most important thing for me is to expand the sensation community.
[HTC Sensation] Leemur89:
Brother, if there is enough guides on this forum, why do new beginners always ask the same questions? :-)..well let me tell you my experience, understand certain guides is a bit difficult as they contain words not familiar to beginners. Once again, i made this guide so i wouldnt have to refer to anyone else's guide if someone else needed my assistance/help. cheers mate~ :D
[HTC Sensation] Leemur89:
Would like to once again apologize for my premature posting of this thread. I should have asked my friend what his sources were. Thanks again all for the heads up :-)
[HTC Sensation] Sgt.Incontro:
Well there is no

absolute

need, but then again he is free to do as he pleases.

If he (or ANYONE for that matter) is simply trying to help the noobs that come on here every day asking, "How i root plzzz help thx", then I am all for it.

But I don't think anyone should be denied the right to create these sorts of guides. Plus, the poorer written ones eventually die anyway, its the way a forum works.

No problem, but next time read up a bit more, and be more precise. Also, remember to give credit to the required people, as somebody stated earlier. ;)
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
Sometimes it's just sheer laziness. Other times they may not understand other guides or just need reassurance.

Either way, I appreciate you taking the time to create this.
[HTC Sensation] Keupie:
Like i said, offcourse we appreciate the effort! What i'm trying to say is that people need to use the search function more. There are enough guides, If you don't understand something in the guide than ask it in the thread, no need to make a new thread about it.

Also, my experience is that If you use the search function enough, you will learn a lot about your phone and the ways to modify it. With that knowledge you can help other people. It's a vicious circle ;-)

Im lost

OK guys, I have never rooted a phone but decided today to give it a try, why.. first cause I dont wish to wait till June for ICS and second becuase I saw this simple looking step-by step guide......so I thought simple.

First off I am PC savy but NOT at all cell phone hacking savy. All of this jargun you all use CID, MID, RUU, 4EXT means nothing to me and I have gotten lost.

I started with the instruction on this thread but then got the bright idea of seeing if there were some youtube step-by-steps how to's and there were. But the two videos I watched must have been older cause they had one major step differnt.

They say to type Y to Install recovery mod after S OFF, and I did. so now the next steps in the video dont work and I have veired off track what you all say to do.... I'm scared and lost.

I'm a realtor and my phone is my money maker, I can't brick it.

Someone help please.

[HTC Sensation] Bigt0m:
Thanks!

Hey man thanks for the easy guide man! Helps heaps!
[HTC Sensation] Leemur89:
Bro, i understand what you're saying.. haha trust me.. My only advice to you is.. If i were you and my phone was of great importance. Don't root your device.. Even if the process is quite easy and most of the time people don't brick their devices, there is still a small percentage.. The best thing you could do is update to ICS via official HTC release, which if i am not mistaken, has already been done in many countries. :-) Cheers mate.
[HTC Sensation] heavy_metal_man:
Ok pal paste us a link to the video you followed. Now, does your phone still start up properly? If so then this should be easy. Power off the device fully. Remove the battery for around 20 seconds or so then reinsert. While holding down volume down also hold power until the device boots to bootloader. (Bootloader is equal to BIOS for a PC). It will give you some information. Post that Info up here. If it says s-off then using the volume buttons scroll down to recovery and push power. If you see a red triangle and/or exclamation mark then you have a stock recovery. If it says clockwork mod recovery then you are s-off with a custom recovery and all seemingly has went well :D:D

Also Cid stands for carrier identification and is used for carrier information and software I think. Mid is used to reference the country/ area you are in, for software as well as networks. They are both used together. Ruu stands for rom utility update and is a HTC program for updating HTC phone software and ext4 is a custom recovery that uses an exit4 partition on the sdcard I believe :D

[HTC Sensation] Leemur89:
oppps. XD guess i didnt answer your questions properly..sorry i misread.. The first thing we need to know is whether or not your phone can start up and does not just blank out when you turn it on.
[HTC Sensation] hortaja:
Hey guys, thank you for the quick replies. Yes thank goodness it does power up.

ok here is the youtube video i followed, opps.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvg0i8in96M

All I got was to turn the phone to s-off but not rooted.

So yes the phone functions, but not my voicemails. It now say

"This phone was associated with a different account. Do you want to delete the exsisting voicemails?"

So I would like to proceed with the upgrade to ICS, unless becuase I am SUCH a noob you all think I should just some how revert back to S-on and leave my phone alone?

I just read here all the time, you should root, its SOOO easy... and it not if you are a noob.. :)

Thank you all for your time, and I love this site.

[HTC Sensation] heavy_metal_man:
i cant see it being an issue bud :D firstly, i am yet to own this device (but soon! roll on payday ^^) so i can only take you as far as rooting and custom recoverys, but for ics updates youd best ask others :) go to this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 and follow steps 2 through to 4 and then you will have a custom recovery, full root and supercid ^^ after that if you want to try an ice cream sandwich rom look

at the dev thread here. http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1112&order=desc&page=2 always double check that you understand what your about to do before you do it, and all threads *should* have full instructions on how to flash them. remember that installing a custom rom will WIPE ALL YOUR DATA so remember to do a nandroid back up from your recovery :) good luck pal and enjoy :cool:
[HTC Sensation] hortaja:
OK guys, well I did not chicken out. I followed the video once again, but this time used my original stock SD card and everything worked. I am rooted! so now to the next steps...

wish me luck.

[Bada Software and Hacking General] ronakg:
Hi,

I updated my Wave from bada 1.2 to bada 2.0. I didn't take backup of my phone and now I have no apps/games from bada 1.2. When I connect the phone in mass storage mode, I see that all the games files are still present.

Is there a way to recover these apps/games? I can get back those apps which are still available on samsungapps, but some old games (like NFS Shift, kroll, bruce lee) are not available any more.

Any clues?
[Bada Software and Hacking General] adfree:
In "theory" now an PC Tool is available to sign as "Sample"...

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] paintball23456:
you did something wrong
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kage00:
Very insightful of you, thanks :D

but do you have any idea WHAT I did wrong? or better still, how to fix it
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Jarmezrocks:
Have you tried symlinking your external sdcard from /emmc to /mnt/sdcard/ext-sd/?

AOSP has the card /emmc and I can see that it is looking to the external SDcard and not finding it? Samsung has it located at folder inside to internal sdcard. Just be aware though that this may cause issues or the media scanner bug going nuts (although I think not as AOSP make it only scan on disconnect from PC but it may take longer cause it does have to scan the ext card (and so it should anyway).

Its got permissions issues obviously haha

Did you push this via adb? If so then go in and just temporarily go and reset its permissions to all 077. Open it up in root browser/explorer and check the boxes

x x x

x x x

x x x

Reboot the phone and reset the dalvik cache. I usually (for testing only) grant permissions on the test app as full, then back to 0644 if all is good and working.

Try them easy things first, however I think that the last part although it may look like a random 1 line not that important compared to what logcat has spewed at you prior, I actually think this is the key thing? I maybe wrong. Basically the app has checked to see if the boot sequence has been completed according to how samsung has it work....and it hasn't.

AOSP doesn't have the same boot sequece and completion like samsung has because of the different vold, vold.fstab, vold.conf (the latter is also where the device tells to mount the sdcard and external sdcards funnily enough). There is also a reference in the build.prop that is in connection to the two binary fines in /system/bin.

vold.fstab (gingerbread)

{
ums_path = /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file
discard = disable
asec = disable
}
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 1 /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/mmc_host/mmc0

# externel sdcard
{
ums_path = /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun1/file
asec = enable
}
dev_mount sdcard1 /mnt/sdcard/external_sd auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2
#end line ## keep this line

Build.prop (and fix for media scan?)

media.stagefright.enable-player=false
media.stagefright.enable-meta=false
media.stagefright.enable-scan=false
media.stagefright.enable-http=true
media.stagefright.enable-rtsp=false
[B]dev.sfbootcomplete=0[/B]

Binaries

"/system/bin/samsungani"

"/system/bin/bootanim"

Maybe look into bringing the files in from the gingerbread, but check ove rthe code in the files in system/etc with a fine tooth comb cause I only got incredible bootloops (I have a feeling that CM chipset swapping to nexus style) is driven from within the kernel?

Worse comes to worse I would ask the devs from the SGSII port if you can grab their files and kernel and test and see what happens?

Man I really don't know aye...this is all speculation, not concreate at all:confused:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ken2802:
any news on it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kage00:
Sorry for the late reply,

I though I'd post this here too as I sent you in the pm the other day.

Still nothing, sorry.

The problem is that the samsung roms mount the internal and external sd cards at different places to all other ICS roms (AOKP, AOSP, CM9, etc) and that is hard coded into the smali of the apk. I don't know how to sucessfully edit the smali to get it to change to work in other roms.

So the project has hit a dead end, I don't know how to change it any other way
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] picard666:
what if you use simlinks to mount the sdcards to those places as well?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kage00:
I tried that too, it still didn't work.

From what I understand the samsung rom looks for a specific boot sequence (things being in the right places at the right times) and then it will load up properly.

Because the ICS roms are different, the touchwiz apps look for this sequence and dont find it and then they crash.

Every error I tried to fix with logcat came up with another error after I resolved each one. It just seemed to be never ending.

The only thing I could come to was the boot sequence, it has to do with the vold in the rom, I'm pretty sure anyway
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] theos0o:

[HTC Desire S] palej:
Hi all,

Maybe better write this question on developers thread, but have no enough posts to write there.

I installed few versions of Primo-S ROMs and had the same problem. I did full wipe, I have latest Radio firmware. Device is S-Off, rooted. My mobile provider give two options for my plan of mobile internet: GPRS and EDGE. When I had official ROM, automatically connected to EDGE. After flashing Primo-S firmware I can connect only using GPRS, but it quite slow. I flashed under Primo-S last two versions of Radio, changed settings - nothing, only GPRS. Than flashed back official ROM - GPRS, flashed previous version of Radio - EDGE, flashed new version of Radio - EDGE, after that tried flash Primo-S again - GPRS.

Maybe a lot of you using 3G connection and didn't face with such problem, but it exists. Does anybody had the same problem?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thinksecretly:
I have a little dilemma. I have had this my touch 4g for a while now and love it. I am currently rooted running ics on my phone. The fact that I am a flashaholic and it seems lately new things are coming out for this phone every week or so, makes it even better.

My girlfriend just got added to my plan so we ordered a HTC amaze 4g because it was free. And after looking at the amaze section it doesn't seem likes there's much going on.from what I read they are stuck on drivers. Yet the amaze it set to get the official ics update.

All that being said my girlfriend had a flip phone so anything is an upgrade for her. Which phone should I take and which one should I give to her.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbadd385:
I keep hearing that they have s-off on the Amaze, but it hasn't been released yet...but that's just what I read on here. I don't know it to be a fact. But I would probably take the Amaze if it were free, because I have found out recently that I don't prefer ICS. Not that I'm knocking mt4g, its still my favorite, but I feel like the Amaze will explode in development soon...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thinksecretly:
I thought the same thing but then I saw that there isn't even çm7 for the amaze which kind of made me worry about development. Thanks for your reply though
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eqjunkie829:
Ive heard that the Amaze is a great phone, but time is ticking and the development window is getting smaller by the day. Without development going on currently, people will probably move to a new device sooner.

Just my two cents.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
If you want a device for development, go for some thing else like sensation or upcoming one s. If you want a great device that works, go for the amaze.

I got the amaze for my girl and Im switching to it too.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morbidmrmartin:
Honestly, if you want great developer support and lots of ROM options, you should go with a Nexus. Be it a nexus S or the galaxy nexus. They tend to have the liveliest dev groups. however, if you are into sense ui, it might not be the best choice.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AgentCherryColla:
I've finally gave up on HTC, and saw the 5.3" light that is the Note. I love all the work that is going into this device. Now I want to buy one, but I don't know where? I see many buy from Amazon, but I don't wanna get scammed. I've been fugded over more than once by bad "deals". I don't want the AT&T version because this version is much better. So can you help me find a safe place to buy a note.

Now here's another question. Most (if not all) of the N7000Ns are unlocked. But are those factory unlocked? If I flash a new ROM, or kernel will I loose my unlock? I'm wanting to use this with Straight Talk (Awesome Unlimited Carrier). The bands are AT&T, but I'll have T-Mobile for a good 3 months. So I don't wanna have my cake, and not be able to eat it :0 I see most people here are kind, so hopefully I get some much needed help :D

I Wish it was a Galaxy Note >:T
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akiainavas:
