If I were you, I would FXZ (SBF) the phone to box stock to remove anything the previous owner had done. Then, I'd root it, install SafeStrap and flash a Steel Droid (in your case) to the safe system.
[Motorola Droid 3] MyNarwhalBacon:
+1 SBFing your phone. I'm sure the guy who sold you your phone isn't evil but it will make sure that there isn't anything installed that there shouldn't. After you are done using the RSD SBF root the phone, install safestrap, and then install your custom rom. I do not recommend using ANY custom roms for your safe system.
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Would be the first thing I do to any newly aquired USED phone, if possible.

if you don't know how or would like help we have many topics on it or just ask!...:D

You do mean you wouldn't recommend flashing any custom roms to your "UNSAFE" system correct lol cause the safe system is the one you WANT to flash on...

P.s.

if you don't see install from zip im betting it is rick#2's custom safestrap....

When in recovery on UNSAFE scroll down to advanced...under advanced you will see your install options..:cool:

but unless your comfortable with sbfin I wouldn't recommend flashing to your unsafe system...instead switch to safe system(you will see your install options under patch/update

and flash away..again this is only an assumption that you might be using rick#2 custom safestrap..if your not belay all this lol
[HTC One X] ealvinito:
Hello,

Just pre ordered today! Are you going to run a ROM? If so which ROM suits best for this device. Just curious.
[HTC One X] brent8577:
none of them, because you have to read the instructions and the rest of the posts in each thread to be sure you want to install it. =]

definitely stay on HTC factory, but check for updates in the settings.
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
Arhd
[HTC One X] jeyml:
Why don't you stay with the stock ROM and just root it?I have a stock 1.28 on it and root and that is more than enough for me.If you want a custom ROM i recommend the ARHD (Android Revolution HD).
[HTC One X] danikron:
Agreed. It's close to stock but with some great tweaks and optional mods. Not to mention support from a skilled developer.
[HTC One X] olig1905:
Im using InsertCoin and loving it. But am considering going to ArHD
[HTC One X] dickiedum:
HTC 1 X

I believe that using the standard ROM is the way to go, just unlock the bootloader and root your phone and that is all that is needed really. I used to change the Rom on my HD2 all the time and also ran ICS but this phone runs smoother on the stock rom.
[HTC One X] maurydes:
leedroid

Leedroid v.4.0 awesome!
[HTC One X] ealvinito:
Thanks for the feedback!

I think I want to give ARHD a try.
[HTC One X] nooomoto:
The best ROM is whichever one you want.
[HTC One X] forumhookersdotcom:
Heard that arhd has better battery life with more than 6hr on screen time.
[HTC One X] danikron:
No one is getting 6 hours of on screen time with this phone, I don't think. I see some people get 4 or so, but they can't be doing much with the phones then. Also, that's probably with real low brightness.
[HTC One X] firas633:
what are the chances of it getting bricked?
[HTC One X] fade2blak:
Yea the one best for me won't be the best for u..

I tried insertcoin, leedroid, JDroid, but didn't convince me..

Right now I'm on VillainRom and to me it's the best..

Keep tryin and eventually u'l find out what works for u..

Don't go by the number of views/ comments..
[HTC One X] forumhookersdotcom:
I get more than 5 hours of on screen time with low brightness.

Won't we get more on screen time on custom Rom as most of the software were tweaked and removed for better performance which will eventually increase battery life.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thizzlemania91:
Kay well I just unrooted my Evo 4g and flashed the unrevoked forever zip and flashed the pg update but Once I get to boot loader it still says s-off :( I need help to make it say s-on or whatever it is suppose to say :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imheroldman:
You have to flash the s-on tool <---

Then you want to run an RUU <--- from your PC. I would choose the 3.30 which was still froyo, which is rootable with unrevoked. This is an .exe file and is just double clicked, on your pc, while the phone is plugged into usb, it walks you through it.

You should now be s-on with no custom recovery. As long as they don't do the upgrade for you you will simply be able to re-root using unrevoked.

GB is still faster than ICS (in my opinion)

So I prefer IT than any ICS (yes even precious Passion, ICSZen, CM9 (hurts me to say))

But I am really tired of HD videorecording stuttering!!!

This happens in MIUI and CM7 I don't know what to do!

Does it work for you?

Test it out it would only take a minute of your time! :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vivere:
Hello Android Forum – I am a complete noob to this, accidentally bricked my phone on Friday and thanks to this site I managed to teach myself fastboot commands to flash new ROM by Saturday – SO A BIG THANKS TO DEVS WHO POSTED HERE! :)

However, in my steep learning curve I didn't back-up my existing factory shipped ROM and would really like it back. The list of factory shipped ROMs does not include Telstra Australia, and the files I extracted from the RUU only contain the new bootloader and Radio updates. I am chasing:

Wildfire S

Telstra – factory shipped ROM with Sense.

If anyone still has this on their Wildfire S and could upload the Telstra factory ROM, or perhaps even a Clockwork Mod ROM manager backup (without data obviously), that would be great! :)

How do i change the stock messaging app to google voice at the bottom of the home screen on stock fd24?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Have you tried going into the app drawer>menu>edit and dragging an icon off and replacing it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MeWarning:
That's how you do it for sure, but you should try while on the homescreen long pressing the old msging app and see if you can drag it to remove. Then you can drag and drop the gv app in the open spot.The stock ics launcher allows you to do it that way so you don't have to go into the app drawer and then menu then edit. I'm not sure if the TW launcher can do that though. I haven't used that launcher since GB. I'd be curious to hear if you can.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] j0hnnyth3f0x:
The TW launcher won't let you, I just tried it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MeWarning:
And ya I double checked, it is Applications > Menu > Edit

It may tell you that you need to change the app drawer to customizable grid, just click ok.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bobzdar:
I just picked up an Atrix lapdock and am trying to get it working with my Razr. When I plug it in, it loads the webtop and shows the screen, but the trackpad and keyboard are unresponsive. After about 5 seconds, the screen will just show the motorola logo and the screen on my phone becomes active again. It seems like the usb portion of the lapdock is not registering because the phone shows nothing if I plug in and unplug the usb from the lapdock (I have the hdmi and usb connectors pulled out of the lapdock for testing purposes). I tried a USB mouse plugged into the lapdock with no response either, though the usb ports on the lapdock are powered up and working as the mouse lights up.

Has anybody had this problem and have any idea how to fix it? Or did I just get a defective lapdock? I have whatever the latest update from vzw is on the phone, not rooted.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iolinux333:
did you unscrew and flip the connectors?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bobzdar:
I have the connectors completely free from the housing to make sure they're fully seated.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tk76:
I have only had problems when the connectors are not well seated (before shaving away excess plastic from the housing). So it sounds like you might have a faulty unit.

Also, be sure the phone screen is on and unlocked when you connect it. Sometimes that makes a difference.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iolinux333:
sounds like a hardware issue to me also
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bobzdar:
Well, looks like I'll be out $80 if it's defective, that sucks. I'll play with the connectors a little more, if anybody has a broken lapdock maybe I could mix and match some parts to get it to work...Or if anyone wants one for parts, let me know.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] yaish:
I am in the same boat with an Atrix dock and a Bionic.

Does anyone know if it's possible to just buy the piece that houses the connectors, or even just the USB cable? I'm pretty sure the USB is the issue.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Killer Turtle:
I ordered this dock and it comes with the cables, so you should be able to get them somewhere.

Bionic lapdock issues, even when i have the adapters connected

Hi, just like bobzdar said, i still have the 5 second screen problem and the phone goes into screen saver mode with M logo. Any suggestions?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Killer Turtle:
Very possible it's the phone, when I got my lapdock I found out the HDMI port didn't function right. If you are near a store just do what I did and take the phone and lapdock there and test both with the display models, to see if it's the lapdock or the phone
[Motorola Droid RAZR] nuoten18:
It's USB problem

I have the same Issue here ... just got my lapdock few days ago ,,, when I connect it to my atrix it only detect the hdmi... I tried to connect my wife's Razr ... and got the same result you've got

Amazingly there are alot of people encounter the same issue ( I thought MOTO devices are the most reliable in the market but THIS change my mind)

Unfortunately I'm not in US (currently in Kuwait) so I would be difficult to find the spare part ... If you find a spare Part please tell me
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iolinux333:
OTA	ICS with webtop 3.0 solved the issue for me. YMMV.

You won't need alcohool, just a wet cloth or kleenex will do the trick
[HTC One X] jonstatt:
There have been some reports of staining that won't come off, but nobody is sure "what" has stained them. The important thing is that you do NOT rub hard on a matte surface otherwise you may change it permanently.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JiN1337:
Here's what this thread is about...the Sidekick 4G has a lack luster of performance in regards to speed...so I have a proposal.

Everyone shares tips to speed up the Sidekick 4G...after a brainstorm and some testing..I will compile the best tweaks together and put them into a thread and give credits to the appropriate people! Everyone feel free to join in, don't think any idea is a bad idea, just post it!

1. Tegrak Overclocking on Bali 2.2 at 1.3 GHZ (Generic Ginger 3.0)

2. Using Supercharger V6 Script

3. Use a good launcher (LauncherPro, Nemus) Customize all memory settings for the launcher in the launcher's settings.

4. Flash the Blaze 4G Modem

5. Uninstall the factory default Swype using Link2SD and install Swype Beta

6. Fix permissions on a daily/weekly basis depending on amount of usage

This is the basics of tweaking that I have applied to my Sidekick to get a boost out of performance. Share yours for everyone to use, and brainstorm.

Edit : This research is going to help me compile and cook a ROM. So helping out here, helps out everyone else in the long run.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] leolawliet:
I'm still on GOv2 now till I get my phone back, but at 1.2ghz along the tweaks I found in other forums this device is totally lag free for me just as long as I keep it optimized. My only issue is ram, I wish this device had more ram.. my low budget Androids actually BOTH have 512mb of ram, and after killing all running apps on those I usually end up with around over 300mb of ram, the Sidekick usually drops to below 100mb in no time and when freeing up ram I never seem to get at least near 200mb.

Anyways.. back on topic, I'll try to find the links to those tweaks so I can share them and give proper credit.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JiN1337:
Unfortunately, everyone has mixed success with overclocking on Glorious Overdose V2. If I so much as touch 1.2 GHz, I'll freeze within minutes if not instantly.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] afr33sl4ve:
Overclocking on GOv2 is hit and miss for me. Sometimes, it can go for about a week on 1.2, or like this morning, it'll crash and shut off. I almost did not wake up in time for work. lol.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JiN1337:
Yeah. Which is why I'm trying to also dev like Adjust is, but I'm a beginner. I'm trying to find the Bali 2.2 Voodoo kernel right now so I can get started.

The Bali 2.2 Voodoo kernel is overclockable to 1.3 GHZ (stable) so if that's the case, just being at 1.3 is a huge speed increase, and then implementing the tweaks into the ROM.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] xmeatizmurderx:
it doesn't matter what the kernal allows for clock speed, every phone is different and some can't overclock at all without crashing
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JiN1337:
True. But at the very least we can try.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] leolawliet:
Try this and see if it does anything for your device. Just remove any prior init.d scripts you have on your device as these may actually conflict with each other.

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yogi2010:
cool deal. I was away from the SK for a long time, but isn't the Platypus_Egg kernel basically the Bali kernel adapted for the KJ2 ROM base?(correct me if I'm wrong about that) in which case, you can use the zImage from GOV or GG ROM. I guess it depends what you are gonna use as your base. for KG2 there was a flashable zip for the Bali kernel here and on Rootzwiki... but they might have been posted to Multiupload and not working anymore.

I am running the KJ2 stock ROM with Platypus kernel taken from GG, and it's running great. I also tried to build the kernel from the source we have, and it seemed to build with no errors, but I couldn't get it to boot on KJ2.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JiN1337:
WAYYY ahead of ya, lol. Platy v1 is my kernel ln KJ2. I haven't tested my ROM, but I've finished up version 0.5 and it's ready for testing for anyone who wants to test it! ( I Don't have time to try it right now)
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yogi2010:
oh cool, I have a 2nd SK in my possession right now, so I could flash it and test it a little bit if you'd like. wouldn't be able to flash it until tonight tho.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] leolawliet:
Maybe by Friday I'll be able to get my hands on the Sidekick again.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JiN1337:
Sounds great. I need all the feedback and help I can get.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ncmacasl:
1) Back up data (you will see why, below);

2) Make a list of all installed apps and their source (Google Play, Amazon, etc.) so they can be re-installed later (you will see why, below);

3) Perform a Factory Reset (this wipes all data and installed apps and brings phone to a "like-new" state --this is reason for steps 1 & 2)

4) Install a Task Killer. Easy Task Killer Advanced works well for this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobo.task.killer -- this not only kills background tasks, it also keeps a record of what is killed so you can easily keep a record of what apps keep re-loading into memory.

5) Root the Phone (help on this is here: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1128); This allows access to the phone storage area where you can remove bloatware apps (like DriveSpace) that continually load in the background, eating up valuable resources.

6) start removing apps (again get help from the XDA forum for guidance) try MOVING an app (especially those from step 4) from phone storage to SD Card, then reboot the phone. if the phone starts working in a weird way, put the app back. Keep trying this with different apps until you are satisfied.

7) start re-installing apps --try only installing the apps you really need. move as many apps as possible to the SD Card. if a non-essential app forces install in Phone memory, uninstall it. only reason to keep an app in phone memory is to use its Widgets.

I have done all of the above on my own Sidekick 4G and the phone works much smoother.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] rpmccormick:
For #6, do you have a list of apks you successfully removed. I removed a lot, including the logmein services and any apk with the word "test" in it. I have tried removing some others that I think I don't need, but many cause problems. I wish we had a list of all the removable junk (or that ROM cookers would just remove more apks from the system then they do)

For #7, I have to disagree. Apps load faster from phone memory for me, even with a Class 10 uSDcard. Phone boot up is faster (media scanner is much faster, you don't get ugly icons while waiting for them to be read off uSDcard, you can run your apps immediately after boot instead of getting "App Not Installed" until the are read off uSDcard). If your uSDcard dies on you (happened to me twice) your phone remains the same (I also like having the ability to swap uSDcards on-the-fly, like if I am on a trip and have multiple cards of movies).

We have plenty of space to hold ~80 apps and that space it just wasted if we don't use it. I have actually started doing the opposite... integrating more important apps in to system. That way there is even more space on data for other apps, and I can avoid having any apps on the SDcard at all (and still have plenty of free space in both system and data).
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] HewettBR:
ok, heres what im going to do in the next week or so, im going to take time to figure out what apps we dont need through testing and remove as many as possible, then i will put it up for flash. we will see if i can get the zip down to 120-140 mb in size
