[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sputnik767:
I'm not new to android customization so i know what unlocking the bootloader entails, but my question is, is it worth it? There doesn't seem to be that much development going on for the TF201. My main issue with the Prime is that it seems a bit sluggish and unstable at times, which seems to imply a software issue rather than a hardware issue. If i unlock and flash a custom rom and kernel, would i see significant improvement in speeds or stability. I don't want to void warranty if i don't get a tangible benefit from it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dom2215:
I unlocked my bootloader because of the unstability and the asus crap. I have now installed on my prime AOKP and motleys kernel (1,6ghz). I think it is worth it, but thats my opinion.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] babymatteo:
It was worth it to me...I'm currently running Primalicious Odexed Final version and the performance has been way better. Battery life is also way better...wiping cache and dalvik would definitely help with the sluggish performance, but as you know, you'd need CWM or any other custom recovery...hence, unlocking the bootloader is def worth it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sputnik767:
Thank you guys, that's exactly what I wanted to hear. Last question before I unlock, is flashing roms and kernels as simple as wiping data and caches through recovery and flashing the .zip file, or is it more involved? I remember reading a thread that talks about .blob files or something like that. I'm just trying to get as much info as I can before I do this, so I don't mess anything up. There doesn't seem to be much information available unfortunately. And I guess everyone is running the latest CWM recovery which is the touch recovery, right? Any problems with that? I know that TWRP 2.0 hard-bricked my Evo and that he CWM Touch recovery has bricked a few Samsung Epic 4G Touch phones when flashing between GB and ICS kernels. But this was likely a Samsung ICS kernel issue that wasn't playing well with the recovery.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dom2215:
Yes, you can flash roms and kernels just over the recovery (zip).

And there are no problems with the cwm touch recovery, the how to for that and the blob file can you see here. But i would flash the twrp recovery, i use it because it is more comfortable. I dont know about hard bricks because of that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sputnik767:
Thanks, that's all I need. The TWRP 2.0 issue I had was only related to the HTC Evo and no other device as far as I know. But it did kill my phone and many others, so as you can imagine I'm weary of using it. But don't think that I'm trying to say anything negative about TWRP in general, it was just the Evo that it had issues with.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] coolriku:
hello guys,

is there anyone that can explain to my how to get SHP in a custom rom?:$

(I don't know if I can ask this question but anyway;) )

[HTC EVO 3D] KL45SiiK:
So my 3d doesnt want to boot up... When I turn it on the screen stay black and only the capacitive buttons stay on...

I can't even boot to the bootloader

Can anyone help me ?? Has this happened to anyone before??

BTW I was on hboot 1.5... HTC dev unlocked... I was on meanrom

EDIT:

[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Just to be sure, is the battery fully charged? Is it charging at all? You have tried pulling the battery?
[HTC EVO 3D] KL45SiiK:
Yes i have 2 spare batteries... It turns on but the it stays on a black sceen with the capacitive buttons on
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
Can you boot into the recovery?? Also do you have adb ??

#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\
[HTC EVO 3D] KL45SiiK:
I have adb... Can I access recovery that way?
[HTC EVO 3D] thoughtlesskyle:
hold volume down and power after removing the battery do you have the hboot screen?

(should be white with skateboarding andys at the bottom)

if you can get to that screen, try using the factory reset option, if that doesnt allow you to boot, you might want to do the RUU zip on sd card trick

if not the other thing i would try doing is download an RUU.exe and try running it from the computer
[HTC EVO 3D] KL45SiiK:
no i can't boot into bootloader... and how do i factory reset when my phone doesn't boot up or go into bootloader???
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
To boot into the bootloader do this.

Pull the battery.

Then hold the volume down button.

Now tap the power button.

Keep the volume down button pressed until you see a white screen.

I don't know if you were doing this correctly so that's why I posted it. If you already knew this then disreguard it.

Now just so were on the same page all you get is a black screen and one captive button dimmed correct?? Also is the captive button that's dim the search button ??? Also when you plug your phone into your pc does it recognize it ???

I already tried plugging it to the computer and running the ruu but it's a no go... can it possibly be an internal problem with the screen???
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
Umm just posted if ya already knew how to boot into the bootloader to disreguard the post yet ya still comment on it ?? Also ya didn't even answer my question does the pc recognize the phone. As in when your in the command prompt does it show your device ??? Or what happens when you type "fastboot reboot bootloader" what happenes ??

#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\
[HTC EVO 3D] KL45SiiK:
Well because in the op I had already said I couldn't boot into it bootloader yet people still asked.... And the computer doesn't doesn't seem to recognize the phone.. my pc makes the sound when something getts plugged in and the phone shows up as drive e but I can't access anything.. as far as the commands go ima give it a try and see what happens

[HTC EVO 3D] jdogg836:
what do you get when you type in the command adb devices?
[HTC EVO 3D] KL45SiiK:
EDIT: I typed "adb devices" this time...
[HTC EVO 3D] jdogg836:
and what happens when you type "adb devices" into your adb?
[HTC EVO 3D] KL45SiiK:
i'm not sure what u meant by that but i just opened up command prompt and types "adb devices" Did i do it right?

C:\Users\Omar>adb devices

* daemon not running. starting it now *

* daemon started successfully *

List of devices attached

HT17JHX10309 device
[HTC EVO 3D] jdogg836:
Yeah, so it recognizes it for adb. Now try "fastboot devices" and see if it will recognize it.
[HTC EVO 3D] KL45SiiK:
No it didn't recognize anything when i typed that
[HTC EVO 3D] jdogg836:
what does "adb reboot bootloader" do?
[HTC EVO 3D] KL45SiiK:
edit: Read next post
[HTC EVO 3D] KL45SiiK:
Ok i think it booted into bootloader because the phone seemed like it turned off but when i pressed power my computer made that sound when i plug in a usb... and i figured it went to fastboot... i then booted recovery to make sure if it was on fastboot and it worked fine....

the problem is that the screen is black and i can't see anything!

So for sure there's something wrong hardware wise???
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
Ok try this.

Pull your battery again and attempt to boot into fastboot.

Now plug your phone into your Pc.

Open up your command prompt.

And type this

cd\

then hit enter

Then type

cd\AndroidSDK\platform-tools\

then hit enter

Then type

fastboot reboot bootloader

Then see if your able to. I noticed in your post you typed this

C:\androidtony>

Try it with the commands I've posted above. Also when you boot in fastboot "if you do"

Don't push the power button. Let it sit for a 30 or 40 sec's to see if the bootloader screen appears. If it does post back.

It sounds like your screen is bad
[Desire HD General] t3rm3y:
i have the desire HD, my friend has the samsung, his screen looks absolutely amazing, its so clear, crisps and clean, my desire looks cloudy and nowhere near as bright side by side, do us HTC users have a rom that is going to make my phone as nice without having to pay for a whole new handset? i do find the sense overlay to be messy now, it was good at one point but now its just muddled...
[Desire HD General] holeindalip:
I came from original galaxy s to my inspire and have always thought the display was horrible??
[Desire HD General] andalism:
Well Yes and No.

hardware wise

The screen is just plain LCD(or Slcd ) and will never be as vibrant as galaxy s2' S Amoled screen which is able to produce deep blacks and deeper colours.

BUT

Software wise: sense has this "glossy" theme which can be arguably clunky and ugly at times. The s2 A's software interface is more streamlined and less cluttered, which probably is more pleasing to the eye.

You can have a similar UI to the samsung S2 by downloading AOSp roms like CM7 OR MIUI.IMO this makes the screen seem "less cloudy" . Check it out at the development section?

[Desire HD General] t3rm3y:
currently running a miui rom, but just seems like an iphone port, have tried cyanogen before, but couldnt be bothered to tweak the home screen, saw some beauties around but dont have time to do much.

maybe i`ll book a week off work and have a mess around...

cheers guys.
[Desire HD General] tamerg:
try reducing your screen dpi if its supported by your rom. Its somehow a new handset experience...

To the Amoled Screens: my brother has the galaxy s and a friend the s2...both screens i find ether blueish or greenish. which they told me came with time.
[Desire HD General] dincdoes.me:
Week off of work is not needed just look at all the themes miui has to off on miui.is and miuiandroid and you will be happy currently I'm on sense 3.5 but thinking to go back its alot faster and themes are endless

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Cazmir:
So i found a replacement glass for the Galaxy S2 t989 on ebay for 18$. Is it possible to replace JUST the glass without having to replace the entire unit(glass & Digitizer)? My LCD is not shattered and the touch works perfectly.

I was told that it is possible but very risky as you may shatter the digitizer trying to remove the glass. I was told they were machine pressed together.

Cazmir
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LegendaryCatalyst:
As a person who has done several screen repairs across several devices, it IS possible to replace just the outer glass (digitizer) without replacing the inner glass (LCD, or LED in our case). However, it is extremely difficult, highly precise work that requires a heat gun or blow dryer at the very least to heat the adhesive. If you can get the shattered glass out without damaging the LED, you're good. Watch for ribbon cables. It is much easier to buy the digitizer and LED/LCD as a single piece and install it. This way you dont have to worry about dirt or fingerprints between your digitizer and LED screen, and usually results in a more satisfactory repair. For more detailed instructions, find a tutorial video for disassembly or PM me if you have questions.

ahh i figured that would be the case. Thanks for the input!

[HTC Amaze 4G] lamenramen:
Hi,

This is hard to describe, but is there a known issue with the Amaze's screen?

Besides the yellow banding that I have (I'm not convinced that replacing it will be better), when I play videos, I can see something akin to a pixely- pentile matrix look. It almost can look like it vibrates akin to a piezo electric effect. Hard to describe, but as someone coming from the iphone, I can easily spot this (my iPhone had no such issues). This occurs even on 720p video. It's not pixelated video, and it happens on any video player.

I have seen this on my 24" monitor, as well as on a sony laptop before, but I am wondering if this is a software issue or some type of cheap connector or an inherent screen issue.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jp2dj1:
have you seen someone elses amaze? That's your best bet. Anyways my looks excellent in opinion. If you see it in another amaze, then you have eyes of a hawk...
[HTC Amaze 4G] animefreeks:
i see it too, but you do need eyes of a hawk to notice it. this can be best noticed by using the HTC Sense blur live wallpaper and brightness cranked up to 100%, then paying attention to the moving bubbles

but by all means its not a screen defect, its by design.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drewmonge:
Get the Evo LTE, the GSIII may only be offered as a dual core here in the States. And reason I say Evo aside from the similar specs, is because its not a totally plastic phone.

Back to the OP's actual question, do we know if Sprint is definitely getting this phone? And even if it does, would it likely be way after other carriers, like with the Nexus?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imheroldman:
I think it will go to Verizon.

And I don't think any quad core phones are going to be coming to the states any time soon, as they don't work on LTE.

Honestly I am going to get the EVO LTE, despite the alluring fact that the SIII even without the quad core will likely be the most "open" phone if it does come with an Exynos processor... Not to mention HTC's bootloader issue right now... http://goo.gl/3T4NK
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsiPhiDan:
I would bet on that too, regarding Verizon. I just find it funny that everyone is waiting for a phone that may not even come to Sprint. Or at least not initially.

Regarding development, I'm with you, I'm getting the EVO regardless. It just looks so sweet. And it's an EVO...

I heard LTE chips that are quad core are being worked on for a Q3 release. But that means that the SIII won't get it, unless it is REALLY delayed! Maybe the Galaxy SIV... ;)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Sprint and Samsung are now partners, vzw didn't get any version at all of the sgs2 and Samsung has a quadcore exynos with let on the SoC. So i would expect sprint will be getting a gs3 by the end of the year if not sooner, as Samsung is looking to do a worldwide drop all at once this time around. If it will be quad or dual core is something to wait to be seen but if the new exynos is ready by the time the phone is in production for sprint I'd bet that it will be the quadcore SoC with LTE on board

Hope these work for you ATnT peoples. I tried many different APN settings. The Media Net is passive for MMS capabilities. My Active APN is the hspa one.

Also I was previously on the LTE unlimited data with Visual Voice mail and it was causing data issues it seemed so I called and switch back to the HSPA unlimited data.

Note: if you leave the LTE plan, ATnT will have to reset your mailbox since VVM is not support on the HSPA plan.

These apn's have been around for a while, since like the original galaxy S and maybe even older.

But anyway, I used only phone so far and my best at my house so far has been 5 down and 1.7 up.

Going to try wap.cingular apn as it gave me good speeds when I have a Galaxy Nexus
[HTC One X] dynamiclynk:
Well I am not in an excellent coverage area so, I get about 2mbps, that's better than Edge at least.

Also I found another thread specific to the "best" settings and trying out these setting also. Yeah I know wap.cingular I think is the old 2G/3G default. and phone was meant specifically for HSPA whereas pta is for LTE.

My problem was I was getting different results based on what was in the APN type field. Could have just been coincidences. :p
