Ok, I installed the 1.50.531.1RUU, then got the ics ota and installed that. I am still s-off, and was able to root it and install 4ext recovery. But the bootloader says locked now. Do I need to worry about that, since I am rooted with custom recovery? Will I be able to install a custom Rom If I decide to?
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
You're s-off which is what's important. You don't HAVE to replace the hboot, but you can flash 1.27.1100 unlocked revolutionary hboot if it makes you happy.

You'll be able to install a custom rom either way.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
o

You will have to install the unlocked 3.32 firmware that is posted in the development forum and you will be good to go. You are still S-off so you still have write permissions for the partitions on your NAND memory. But because your bootloader is locked you it will not flash anything but a official signed PM58IMG.zip . So you would have to use fastboot to flash recoveries and such.
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
I flash recoveries with locked hboot/s-off frequently.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Yeah some users report no problems like you. But some user report having problems. Maybe the ones that have problems are not using a properly signed .zip file. Then again it could just be a fluke. I do know that users in the Juopunutbear S-off thread in development have reported having issues with the locked Hboot and flashing the unlocked Hboot fixes it.
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
I see. Perhaps its isolated to juopunutbear then... ??
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
What should not happen theoretically is

With locked bootloader on top of soff.. They can flash stuff via PG58IMG file but fastboot flash commands will not work..

What Macgnolia mentioned did happen some times though couple of times the PG58IMG.zip file was not parsed even though the name is fine

Sent from my pyramid.. Through blazing fast sonic waves
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Smashed the thanks button on that one. Thanks for the insight, I could not remember the exact problem butt I did remembered it was a problem. Now that you mention fastboot I remember this post.

The same member has three two more post in the Juopunutbear S-off guide thread if you want to read them.

Sorry for being scatter brained tonight, I got laid off from work today, so I am really not focused this evening.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Macgnolia:

What terepin quoted is partially true

the JB procedure actually supposed to give you the eng-hboot (unlocked HBOOT --juopunutbear) ..but the last step is failing for a lot...so when the JB method is done...

they are left with SOFF but with locked bootloader (stock)

all the fastboot flash commands are extended commands which actually present in eng-HBOOT.. but in locked bootloader they are locked (remote not allowed error occurs)..

so by flashing revolutionary patched unlocked firmwares we get fastboot extended commands to work and thus fastboot works

so basically SOFF ...lifts the security on all partitions (gives read /write permissions)

and eng-HBOOT aka revolutionary/juopunutbear HBOOTs gives ability to use fastboot extended commands (flash) commands ....Having this combo..we can do every thing with ease :D

Now you do Know how unlocked boot loader works :D
[HTC Sensation] LAChris67:
Got into trouble --- my way out ...

I downloaded all 3 (2 PG58IMG.ZIP and 1 EXE file) files; I installed the GB Stock Recovery at the root; cleared the caches in advance; rebooted and reinstalled the ZIP (it only installed 'recovery'.) After this, the phone would not boot and seemed bricked. If I ran any ADB PUSH commands into it, it would be connected (ADB DEVICES) however the file system was marked as read-only. I did ADB REMOUNT and this made no difference; I did ADB ROOT and it said it was already in root.

Did a search on here, and did not find much instruction or condescending comments. ADB PUSH commands still came back as Read-Only regardless of whether phone was started, in recovery, bootloader. So, in a last move, I did ADB REBOOT BOOTLOADER ... of course, this brought in the bootloader and THEN I was able to run the EXE (I was not able to before -- it said I was below 30% battery which was not true, I was near full-charge). In the end, the EXE saved the day and restored my phone and brought it back to stock. WHEW. I hope this advice helps someone else; I really thought I was hopeless and bricked there for awhile.

Seller said they dropped it in water. It holds a charge but will turn off shortly after being powered on. They're asking $100. Worth it or should I pass? Sounds like a hardware problem so I don't think its fixable without dishing out a lot of money.

I think you answered your own question. I'd say its definitely not worth it considering a lot of factors like how long it was in the water, what they did after they pulled it out, etc etc...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
Replacing the logic board is cheaper than replacing the screen, so as long as the screen isn't cracked it shouldn't be that bad. However, you're not going to be able to easily find a replacement logic board yet. If it is well and truly broken, your best bet is to keep the screen and housing, then buy another Nexus that has a broken screen and frankenstein it together.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tooter1:
I'm looking for the back housing to a Verizon one, if anyone knows where I can get parts for them?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] M7amad90:
Search eBay! I found many mobile housing there :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] M7amad90:
Not a good idea in my opinion!

Its like buying a used car with some issues and spending a lot of money to fix it's known bad issues then after sometime new bad issues will come up and you'll keep fixing it and so on that if u bought a new one wit would have been cheaper! Electronics are even worst!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
Cars are different, though. Any issue with an engine that completely prevents it from running is not going to be traceable to any one particular part, especially if all of the parts are really old.

These phones literally have four major components that are easily replaceable, and only two of these components are going to keep the phone from being operational. If you replace both the logic board and the screen, it's practically a new phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tooter1:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Reverence12389:
There is no section yet for the Asus Transformer Pad 300, so I figured I would post it here.

I just received my new Pad 300 from Amazon and was setting it up when I realized that there are 3 or 4 dead pixels on the bottom right of the screen that are very visible with a black background.

Also, there is a hairline scratch that seems to be between the glass and the LCD screen in the middle of the screen.

Has anyone else had any screen quality issues with their new Pad 300? Is the best way to get this issue resolved through Amazon or directly through Asus?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Swiftks:
Not trying to rain on your parade, but I'd suggest you try posting your issues/reports/etc. here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1570125

I know that a TF300T forum does not yet exist, but we do not need to clutter up the Prime sections with everyone's individual problems on a separate device.

BTW, I have "officially" requested a separate TF300T device forum.

Thread Closed.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gwasmad:
hello,

i have a epic 4g rooted, stock rom, seems that when i go to the market, it does not show the apps that i have installed and/or the ones that i purchased. additionally, if i were to delete one of these missing apps, they still dont show up in the market/google play. I have attempted to use various market enablers, but this has not solved my issue. on another note, and perhaps related, when i use titanium backup only one app shows setcpu, while previously it was working.

a lending hand would greatly be appreciated.

Cm9 is way better than the leak filled with twiz
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RED ZMAN:
Looking for some help from my fellow XDA folks.

I've been running my SGT7 in the dash of my car for just over a year, loving the hell out of it. Upgraded to CM9 and it runs so much better, so smooth, but I've got a few issues.

For anyone interested in what it looked like in my dash on Gingerbread, here's a video I took the day I installed it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZC5c6OZLnzg

I'm having a hard time reading a lot of the text because of the small size on CM9, and the icons are so much smaller than on Gingerbread, making it hard to select icons while driving.

I installed DPI changer and tried several different DPI settings. The ones that turned it into "phone mode" really looked about perfect, but gave me no more ICS navigation buttons. I need those, as the metal frame that holds the device in my dashboard covers the hardware buttons. I REALLY do not want to go back to using Button Savior either.

Suggestions?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RED ZMAN:
Any one?

I'm basically looking at running the phone UI but keeping navigation buttons I guess.

Perhaps a different launcher, with the dpi changed?

[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] Lord60:
To answer the original thread, yes there is a pen memo. The keyboard is smaller so just laid out slightly different. To find it, open memo, start a new memo and act like you're going to type something to bring up the keyboard. Then hit the 123 button to activate the numeric and symbol keyboard and in the lower right you will see the capital T with the pen on it. HIt that, and you go into pen memo (handwriting) mode.

FUnny how the subject changed and no one answered the original ?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] mrbkkt1:
I was going to answer the same thing, I didn't know it was called pen memo though.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] jcejohnson:
You're talking about "T Memo" on the p3113? Version 1.0? With the Samsung keyboard? I don't have the "T" to bring up handwriting mode. I'm running a custom ROM so I may not have the stock/current version of the app.

I tried to take my kineto apk off of my G2x and place it onto my moms new Samsung Admire but it kept crashing. Why wont this work? Anyone know of a wifi calling apk for her phone that will?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andrewNY:
It requires kernel support.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] codecaine21:
Possible? I have already rooted her phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
There are special libs that work with Kineto.apk. They are located in /system/lib, they are:

libganril.so

libkineto.so

librilswitch.so

They all must be on the phone to make wifi calling work. Will they work flawlessly on her phone? I honestly don't know, but that's how it is on the G2x. I never even heard of that phone
[T-Mobile LG G2x] codecaine21:
I'll try pushing

libganril.so

libkineto.so

librilswitch.so

into her system/lib folder and see what happens. Do i need to link these shared obj files or can i just place them?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cervantesjc:
You're aware that wifi calling only work on tmobile and the admire is not a tmobile phone, it will NOT work.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
Thats probably why i never heard of it, he's right. You chances of getting it to work are slim if it's not a T-Mo phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] codecaine21:
Yes i am aware that the wifi calling apk is for t mobile. I figured i might give it a try though and see what happens. Maybe thats a dead end. So, I have nettalk on her phone at the moment but it only works on out going calls and gives her a different number. I need something similar to t mobile wi-fi calling that allows her to keep her number? I am willing to buy from the market. One time fee though. Nothing like pay per call or credited accounts. Ideas?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cervantesjc:
Use Google voice, sign up from the web, it'll give you a phone number, that can be linked to her phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andrewNY:
There is no way the T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling app will work for you. Regardless of if you can get the app to run on the phone, it requires specific support on the carrier side to work.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] codecaine21:
Yeah i have thought about doing that but from what I've heard, she gets assigned a GV number and is not able to keep her old one. It's like having a whole new number. then she would have to hand that out. Thats why i have been hesitant and left this as my last resort. But hey, something is better than nothing any day in my book!!

Or am i wrong? Does she get to keep/use her old one?

@andrewNY, yeah i was hoping that wasn't the case, thanks for confirming though!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cervantesjc:
You can set it up to keep both numbers, that's how I had it set up, only if you set it up to not replace the mumber.

Pull battery, put back in, hold volume down to get in download mode, start Odin on pc , plug in phone, press volume up, Odin should respond with COM# click the phone button and select your stock from such as the cwm el26. Just read the forums. Don't feel bad it happens to all of us once in awhile. Thankfully I have managed to fix most of my screw ups.

I don't know what that other guy was saying but you have to hold the volume down Button and the power button until it shows the custom OS menu the press volume up and then download sfhubs one-click EL29 and then open it, its in development fyi, connect your cable to your PC and your phone and the program will have a yellow box light up that will say COM#, don't worry about the number next to COM, then press start and wait until it reboots. Do not unplug the phone or close the program. If it works for you please respond back here so others can hear the results.
