[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Chaosz-X:
Not correct; the stylus can work in AOSP ROMs.

The buggy ICS versions I made a while ago had pen working flawlessly.

The current MIUI and CM7 ROMs can use it as well, but the settings have to be tweaked to make it behave like it is supposed to. If touch is enabled using the event_google trick, it will raw convert the /dev/input/ interfaces to input, and this works (if ntrig_touchd is at it's place!), but it also requires an IDC to get it working like it is supposed to. ICS uses IDC files and has it working fine, and if we can get CM/MIUI to use IDC files, it could work there natively too.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
Thus the confusion as to what AOSP means. If by AOSP you mean anything thrown into a pile that does not contain the hardware vendors specific drivers and support libraries, other than the kernel and boot, then the answer is yes.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simplyjustkids:
My arc s went into a boot loop after i replace the ICS software buttons (framework-res.apk) using root explorer and forgot to change it's permissions... =(

Is there anyway to enter recovery mode or root explorer using the pc so i can flash the zip or change the permissions there without booting the phone?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartarse93:
Do you have cwm installed? Are you able to access it? Just adb shell into it and chmod the file to the correct permissions, or you could just replace the original.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simplyjustkids:
you mean recovery mode? (power plus vol down)

EDITED : I'm not sure did i install CWM... is there anyway to install it through pc? or change permissions through pc?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natural4862:
This thread contains the tutorial for going into CWM without installing it, and I just copy the most important part out

Copied from vaibhavknockout's thread

--------------------------------------------------

2. – Download attachments below titled recoveryARC.img and RootXperia.zip. Thanks to jlmcr87 and his post. Copy and paste the file recoveryARC.img to the fastboot folder (folder containing fastboot.exe). Also, transfer the file RootXperia.zip 'as it is' to your SD card.

3. - Open the fastboot folder. Right click on the folder background while pressing shift key on windows PC. Click "Open command window here".

4. - A black cmd window will open. Type in the following command - "fastboot.exe boot recoveryARC.img".

5. - Switch off your phone, connect to the USB cable while holding the menu button (rightmost of the three buttons on Arc). A blue led should light up (It is an indicator of entering in fastboot mode).

6. - Let the process run. Look at the cmd window. If it says the process is complete, remove the USB cable.

7. - On your phone, a menu should appear. This is Clockworkmod/ CWM recovery menu (more about this in later questions). Use volume down key to go to 'install zip from SD card' and enter by pressing camera button.

-----------------------------------------------------

After going into CWM, flash the zip containing the framework-res.apk to reboot:D
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simplyjustkids:
Thanks! but i had already reflash the sony ICS update again on flashtool resetting all the system file which works fine but sadly i have no idea why the ICS software buttons looks kind of mess up on the stock sony launcher...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vr5411:
What Rom is this? Or from where you got modified framework file with on screen button?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pield:
Heelp please!!!

hii

im trying to get the on screen buttons for my xperia arc ICS but first time it was a pain to compile the framework-res.apk because a % thing. Then i could compile but when replacing the framework-res.apk with the reframe sh, i get a boot loop =S so i have to reflash and so far my phone still alive.

i still want the on screen buttons what do i miss? whats the permission thing? can you help me to make my phone look like the picture you posted?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vr5411:
Use rashid.fairus zip. That version is working good.

You could remove SystemUI.apk from zip before flash.

I have one home.apk with alligned home dockbar.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pield:
still help

sorry but i dont get what you mean. I read lots of tutorials and the compile part is done with apktool and the replace on the phone with adb shell and reframe sh but that way doesnt work it gets boot loop. Searched what you said but nothing on the web =S
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vr5411:
Here, go to this topic in Arc Themes and Apps section and take cwm zip with already prepared framework.

[mod][ics .562]OnScreen Button+ChromeStyle Recent Panel+AOSP Statusbar

You can remove SystemUI from zip before flash if you only want on screen buttons.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pield:
THAAANX!

THANX A LOT! now i have on screen buttons =D i have a hard night and you make it worth. Think that the problem was the framework-res i made i think it wasnt created on the right way

Having a bootloop problem help...

in a bootloop situation... first i rooted my device.. then i tried to install a custom rom CW9.. But i forgot to wipe the factory data and cache files.. so after installing the rom i went into a bootloop. I cant even enter into the CWM recovery mode.. plzzz help:crying:
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pield:
try with flash tool installing the factory android, or another room that you are sure works on your phone. Maybe its a prob with the room. wiping all is the safest way but if you are sure its just the room you can uncheck the wipe data box and it will work.

hope it helps

Can you give me the link for factory image of LT18i
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartarse93:
That should only happen if your bootloader is locked and you tried flashing a custom kernel.

I would just go with pcc and "repair" the phone.

[HTC One X] davidandrews:
So following the support pages on Dropbox and HTC, I have performed every linking, unlinking, reinstalling computer app and Getting Started steps, (ALL SEVEN) spent literally hours and still no 23gb

Really disapointed that Dropbox/HTC could con us into thinking we would get 23GB - and from the forums I am not alone

Support is none existant. No one bothers replying to emails from support, I am just wondering does anyone else have any Voodoo

On a brighter note, i love my one x. battery is immense:

[/URL]

its a beautiful phone, incredibly responsive and the camera is amazing.

The only thing i can't do is attach it to my Router (its an old one and says mac code is invalid) think its the age of the router more than anything!

Anyway, if anyone else has a way of getting me my 23gb on Dropbox i would be incredibly grateful! Thanks :-)
[HTC One X] mickfitz:
I use Box and much prefer the interface.

Got in before the 50gb lifetime accounts expired so i didn't even bother with dropbox.
[HTC One X] junialum:
Have you done the startup tour in Dropbox? https://www.dropbox.com/login?cont=https://www.dropbox.com/gs

It's called the Getting Started Tour and rewards 250MB after you complete. I remember my phone telling me that I need to complete that to get the HTC free space.

It should auto link as it worked for mine. I now have 40+GB :)
[HTC One X] Whistler23:
I completed only 5 of the 7 things I think and it it sent me an email for being a dropbox guru, also saying thanks for supercharging your HTC device with Dropbox (maybe you have to go back in to Dropbox once you've uploaded?). Then it just says you've been awarded 23gb.
[HTC One X] Bigmille:
Same here, I got the phone on launch day and done 6 out of the 7 tasks on Dropbox webpage, still have not got the extra 23gb.

Not really a big deal for me since the extra storage is only for 2 yrs and I already have 7gb with dropbox. Beside now both Microsoft (7gb free) and Google (25gb $5/year from old upgrade) have better deals, I'm going to use dropbox less and less.
[HTC One X] davidandrews:
[/URL]

I have actioned the getting started page several times, watched the video on both mobile and computer, i have logged in and out on computer and device and nothing.

As i say, i think it was just a con to get you buy the phone, the fact that dropbox and htc aren't responding to support questions just exasperates this for me
[HTC One X] Whistler23:
"You've earned 23gb"

"You can now store up to 7.25gb..."

....huh???

I can't post pics as I am a new member but I've only done 5 of 7 and mine says

"You've earned 23gb"

"You can now store up to 25.75gb..."
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Yeah mine says this... Not sure why yours isn't working.
[HTC One X] novak84:
it tells you that you have earned 23gb, this along with the standard 2gb that dropbox give makes 25gb.................what are you expecting?

This is what i did to get my 23gb.

1. Logged in to Dropbox via the app on my phone

2. Logged in to dropbox on my computer and went to the getting started page

3. Watched the demo and all completed all the other remaining tasks

4. Logged out and back in, i got the message i had 23gb extra
[HTC One X] MinecraftZombi.es:
same here. It took a few days before mine showed up, but it got there in the end.
[HTC One X] zekit:
Try uploading a few docs or pics from your phone and sharing them with one of your friends.

I got mine after 10 minutes of completing everything and have uploaded some pics from my phone
[HTC One X] cgmorris89:
Mine was instantaneous after logging in through my dropbox app...I love this feature btw. Instant camera upload is the best :p
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Agreed instant camera upload is brilliant...
[HTC One X] acaijr73:
Seems to have worked out ok for me
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
Because HTC would lie about storage. Right.
[HTC One X] liquidguru:
Worked fine for me. Turned on the phone, filled in my details and a few minutes later I had the extra 23GB. I didn't have to do anything else to get it.
[HTC One X] Wtrt:
How can it be a con if the majority of people receive the 23 GB...
[HTC One X] davidandrews:
Yes, confusing isn't it

I have earned 23gb, but only have 7gb

Im not making it up!

I have tried all other things (the camera uploading tricks).

I gave gone through getting started (on the phone as well).

I am at a loss other thinking this is a ruse to sell phones or there is a fault.

Its frustrating as I wanted to back up my itunes!
[HTC One X] Rageypeep:
I got my 23gb with no probs at all, just followed the onscreen instructions. :)
[HTC One X] BLAST3RR:
Wouldn't really consider this a con, seen it's an 'extra feature'. Your situation seems unique, and I think by contacting Dropbox they wouldn't be that resisting to help you out..
[HTC One X] madik_:
If i am not mistaken we got the additional 23GB of space for 2years. Any ideas what will happen after the 2years will run out? I mean we are going to loose the space unless we start paying the monthly fees (which are quite high atm) ? It may also be "buy this new HTC phone or pay this much $$$ a month if dont want to loose the space". Any opinions on this?
[HTC One X] mickfitz:
That's why I didn't bother at all.

It's a trap and they even reward you for trapping your friends.

If they gave it away for life, just like box did then I would register.

This was the compensation for not having a sd slot. F U HTC
[HTC One X] Albert Poon:
I have 32G too. So please do not assume and blackmouth HTC/Dropbox when you have yet to complete the steps successfully.
[HTC One X] MinecraftZombi.es:
As far as i undertsand it, you lose the space, but the files aren't deleted. you can download the files so you won't actually lose any files or anything. No doubt by then, we'll all have new HTC phones that will have given us yet more dropbox space...

---------- Post added at 11:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 AM ----------

And yet you jumped directly to 'htc are lying to us' rather than asking dropbox if there was a screw up on your account?
[HTC One X] marcadam:
I got my mine straight away. Box is pretty crap though with it's ****ty 50mb upload limit or what ever it is. Google drive looks promising.
[HTC One X] MartijnMM:
After 2 years you download your files, and stop using the service?

Where is the trap? It's upto you what you want after 2 years.

You knew this all when you bought the phone.

Thx HTC its a nice feature.
[HTC One X] Demented-Idiot:
it didnt work for me first time. I initially skipped the setup wizard (as i use keepass so didnt have any of my passwords to hand.)

As soon as i used the htc setup wizard and linked to my DB account i just got the extra space.

Currently sitting on 29.25 GB :):)
[HTC One X] gdelrosario:
worked fine for me as soon as logged in my dropbox account
[HTC One X] madik_:
@davidandrews for the original topic. Are you sure that your One X box was originally sealed? Is possible that someone could have bought your One X or have it in hands before you and signed the phone on his Dropbox account? There might be some IMEI number that is linked to other dropbox account which mean that you wont get your 23GB as some other person "stole" it from you. Just an assumption.
[HTC One X] mickfitz:
So in 2 years time you're at the mercy of their pricing, could be anything in 730 days time.

I'd rather the comfort of a sd slot but that's outlawed so corporate grubs can squeeze a little more from the consumer.

I wouldn't be surprised if they held on to your files and made you pay to have them released if you don't continue after it expires.
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Another way to look at it is that in 2 years time storage will be even cheaper than it is now and limits will be massively increased too. It could be that 25GB becomes the standard of a free account by then - Who knows?

Worst case scenario is that you just don't renew... all the files are also stored on your computer too so you wont lose them and can simply upload them elsewhere in 2 years if Dropbox wasn't for you.
[HTC One X] Sentinel196:
It worked fine for me. I got the extra GB no problem after completing the steps.
[HTC One X] darrenj87:
I only followed five of the steps and then was issued with the 23gig extra!

Not really sure how useful it's going to be..

Especially considering I have Google Music and Google Drive.
[HTC One X] Reckless187:
I originally installed the cracked apk and had to email Dropbox a couple of times before they re-added the 23gb to my account. Just keep emailing them til they reply, which they will eventually.
[HTC One X] Eggcake:
Worked perfectly for me. I don't use Dropxbox that often, but how is this a trap? Yes, it's only for 2 years - but you're free to download everything and go anywhere you want after that. How is this a trap? You already KNOW that it's only for 2 years - it pretty much CAN'T be a trap by definition... :>
[HTC One X] davidandrews:
Yes, definitely a new sealed unit with two unbroken seals.....

thanks for the constructive help.... at least i have tried everything.

shame dropbox don't reply to emails!
[HTC One X] mobilemaduk:
I had same problem. Contacted them on twitter and now all resolved
[HTC One X] seanieb:
Did you contact Dropbox support?

If you installed a modified APK trying to trick Dropbox into giving you space on another device previously it will block you from gaining additional extra space. Only Dropbox support can clear your account so you can earn the bonus for your new device.
[HTC One X] treebill:
i thought i would jump in on here :)

a while ago there was a modded version of dropbox that allowed non HTC phones to get the 23 GB they have stopped this but any accounts the used the mod have been banned from getting the 23 GB storage here is the email

i did as they said and got no reply so i just deleted my account and made a new one with the same email lol and i got the space after doing some of the tasks on dropbox

hope this helps you guys out!
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
Mine worked fine.
[HTC One X] rajitsingh:
How can you call it a con when people, like me, did get their 23 extra gigs??
[HTC One X] Johnny0906:
Work fine for me as well, just followed the steps as soon as I got the phone and voila I got 25 GB with a total of 27.5 GB.

Cheers

36.5gB for me, have been using Dropbox for a while and think its much better than Box
[HTC One X] angusc:
Unfortunately that is not the case for everyone, myself included. the Dropbox support guy has been nothing but evasive about how to get my 23GB of storage, finally today he tells me:

"Robert - Dropbox Support, May 01 06:00 pm (PDT):Hi Christopher,

I apologize for the length of time it has taken to handle this issue. This was exacerbated by the fact that you had installed a hacked version of the app on your phone.

I'm very sorry, the phone you have linked to your account has been previously linked to somebody else's Dropbox account. The HTC bonus space is only valid once per phone and is non-transferable. Due to privacy concerns, it is not possible to tell you which account the promotion was redeemed on.

Best,

Robert"....................

It seems clear to me that DropBox and HTC did not think through the registration method, all they needed to have done was set up a registration website where the user could enter their IMIE number and then Dropbox verified it with HTC and then issue the free storage to that account. Instead they made us jump through hoops and if you should have played around with your phone and other apps you could have lost the ability to claim the storage.

I along with many others I dare say, did install the hacked version of Cropbox on to me old HTC DEsire around 2 months ago and Dropbox sumilarily removed that free storage. But they also put a block or flag on those accounts that gained the storage this way. All of that happened before my new HTC One-X arrived and I know it was clean out of the box from Expansys and had not been touched....so who did claim my 23GB.......?
[HTC One X] brent8577:
I might like it. Obviously, I won't be buying space, but I can back up my grocery list for each store and other important docs. I might find use for the extra gbs but if not, I can have some backup if there's a fire, breakin, or HDD crash.

The steps were annoying. I have a desktop and laptop so I didn't have to invite someone or share something. It's hard not having friends.
[HTC One X] YoungAceAtlanta:
if i already have dropbox i could still get the 25gb right when i sign in on my phone?
[HTC One X] hopscotchjunkie:
Yes, you'll just get 23GB added to your existing storage.
[HTC One X] Paulst30:
I already had an existing account with DB, so when i signed in initially on phone set-up it just worked. But, does everyone know that it's only for a year?

I signed up to Skydrive when it first got released, and then when it switched to 7Gb i managed to somehow still keep my 25Gb.

Google Drive is a waste of time IMO. DropBox is so much easier it seems. At least you get little thumbnails for your pics, Drive is just so static.
[HTC One X] hopscotchjunkie:
Two years, but yes.
[HTC One X] Paulst30:
Oh two years? hmm Me Gusta.
[HTC One X] Crew One:
With an afternoon of free time you can get this much free space with dropbox:
[HTC One X] angusc:
Dropbox are refusing to respond to my tickets now. After they basically told me that someone else had claimed my free space and there was nothing they could do about it!

I'm sure it has something to do with the fact that i previously used the exploited version of Dropbox on my old device to gain free space that they later recovered.

Anyone have any advice on who i should contact next as i feel Dropbox are being a little unfair in saying that they can not help me to get my free storage. i feel i have a legitimate right to as it was advertised as a feature by HTC for the One-X.

[HTC One X] antipesto93:
I just entered my existing account (with 20gb from referals etc..) at startup, a few days later i noticed i had no extra space, so i just launched dropbox, downloaded a random file, and it popped up saying i have ANOTHER 25gb = 45gb including referrals :D

[HTC One X] treebill:
Just delete your account and remake it
[HTC One X] angusc:
Done that and also tried creating a new account using another email address. As I said, Dropbox advised me that my free storage had already been claimed against my device but they would not tell me any more info.

[HTC One X] hecatae:
that almost works, installed box because it is so much easier
[HTC One X] MaBlo:
Was the box unopened when you got the phone?

I also didn't get the 23gb, probably because of the hacked apk. Dropbox didn't answer my mails, not impressed by their customer service. Anyway deleting the account worked for me, I got the space instantly after completing the get started steps.

I assume HTC only pay Dropbox per device, so if somebody else already claimed the space with your device there's nothing they can do.
[HTC One X] Reckless187:
I installed a hacked apk on my desire HD and Dropbox immediately removed the extra storage. I emailed Dropbox with a grovelling apology and within a few days i had my 23gb storage on my new One X.
