im running 'old school' eclipse 1.3 (2.3.4) because i dont want to upgrade to 2.3.5, i honestly like it, plus i had a lot of problems with cm7 RC1 and i knew eclipse was awesome and pretty done. yes it has blur but its worth it to have a stable ROM
[Motorola Droid X2] brothermatt:
i've seen a few people say this. it must be an app issue. i only got the DX2 a few weeks ago, used stock for less than 35 minutes, then i flashed RC0 and RC1 CM7. I've had 1 FC related to Google Play Music, but other than that it has been smooth and fast. The lag when I sbf'd was pronounced, but i've had zero issues with CM7. are people restoring app data through TB or something? it just doesn't make sense that people could install the same rom the same way, then some say "fast; awesome" and others say "unstable; buggy."

I'm running...

CM7 7.2 RC1 (daytona)

I'm more than happy with this setup. It's going to be on my phone for a while.

Weird how some people have problems with CM7 and some have none. I've been running it over 4 weeks with zero issues. No FCs or anything. I used Pete's method of rooting and of course you have to load a special modified CM7 X2 Bootstrap after installing CM7. I'm just curious as to what could be the cause of some people having issues.

[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
I think some people are having issues because they might be running MX2 instead of Droid x2? That is the only thing I can think of. Because if you are running MX2 you have a different kernel from the original Droid X2. I have not tried running CM7 so I can not confirm or deny this fact.
[Motorola Droid X2] pipelin3r:
I just took a 10 second video like this to test it. No issues, No FCs, No problems. It took the video fine. I went to the gallery and replayed the video. No problems. Weird.
[Motorola Droid X2] RyanThaDude:
The only thing I can think of that causes problems in one and not the other is slightly different hardware. They might be the same but have different revisions or even made at a different factory. While I don't suffer from FC I do suffer from the root hang, wifi & GPS dropping.

[Motorola Droid 3] Sloop:
Hey all,

I'm looking since over a week for a solution but without luck. I tried quite everything, I ended up in purchasing ROM Manager Premium. My problem is that I cannot boot into the clockword recovery mode, so I can perform a Nandroid Full Backup of my existing ROM. I am running stock firmware, nothing special. I just rooted my device and I also installed ROM Manager Premium. I clicked on "Flash Recovery" and of course I assigned superuser rights with the "remember" option checked. I tried:

- open the application ROM Manager and choose the second function called "reboot into recovery". result--> my device do a normal boot, nothing happens.

- I tried powering on the phone by first turn it off, then push simultanously Powerbutton+VolumeDownButton+HomeButton. Nothing --> it still boots on normal way.

- When I slide/open my droid3, and powering on my phone using the powerbutton+X-button then I am getting this explanation mark. Then I have to push simulatenously volup+voldown buttons and I see the stock boot mode of Motorola, where I can reset to factory defaults, and so on. This is the stock boot mode, isn't it?

- When I slide/open my droid3, and powering on my phone using the powerbutton+M-button on the keyboard, I am getting a menu with following lines:

Boot Mode Selection Menu (0A.53)

Vol Up Selects, Vol Down scrolls

Available Boot Modes:

Normal Powerup

Recovery

AP Fastboot

BP SBF Flash

BP Only

BP HW Diag & Boot AP

BP Tools

I can use the VolDown key to scroll and I scrolled to BP Tools and pushed the VolUp Button. But my device still boots up normally, I don't see any clockwork mod recovery menu or something like that. Damn it!

What am I doin' wrong? How can I access this Recovery Menu, so I will be able to perform a Nandroid Backup ???

Hope someone can help, it's really getting frustrating :( Any help appreciated. Thanks to all.

Droid 3 has a locked bootloader. Which bootstrap do you have installed?
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Rom manager is kinda useless for the d3, most roms aren't on it. Safestrap is the bootstrap of choice for d3. Il find a link
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/downloads/safestrap/
[Motorola Droid 3] Sloop:
Thanks for the link, but coulod someone anyhow tell me which menu I am booting in, when pressing M+Powerbutton ? is this also stock from Motorola ?

So, ROM Manager is useless .. means: I have to uninstall completely before doing any other stuff, right? I uninstalled ROM Manager and to be sure I rebootet my phone.

I downloaded this Safestrap version for my Droid 3 (Droid 3 :: v1.08 [ 2011-12-16 ]) and transferred it into my Droid3. Within my phone I open ES file explorer and tapped on this safestrap.apk and installed it.

I am using this how-to-instructions link for Safestrap by Hash Code. So far so good, I was able to perform a backup although I get a notice similar to "skipping /android.blabla no applications found". Hope this is ok. I verified the backup and md5 checksums seem to be ok.

I hope a have a valid backup of my stock ROM now :)
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Yes you do, however the idea is that you should never need it, as you can't flash when safe mode is disabled, you have to activate safe mode. Because of this its pretty hard to mess your phone, as the stock rom never gets overwritten
[Motorola Droid 3] Sloop:
I didnt understand perfectly yet how this safestrap/boot stuff works. I installed safestrap recovery, so far so good. I can access this boot menu as described in HashCodes HowTo. What happens if I enable safeboot in the menu? I am getting a warning that it cannot be undone.Why am I getting warned?I canceled it because I was not sure what to choose. Do I have something like a dual-boot menu when installing a custom ROM? That means I can install CM7 and also boot my stock Motoblur with all my actual settings and apps installed? And if I reboot the device I can boot for example CM7 and have a strict different system running with the apps and settings installed only on my CM7 portion?

[Motorola Droid 3] slayer621:
Dualbooting is one (slightly inaccurate) way to look at it. I'm not sure which warning you are talking about, but i can explain a bit better. Safestrap is designed to keep a perfect copy of your original system at all times. As in better than a nandroid. So perfect that it is ALWAYS there. It is not modified in any way. Even if you flash something that you know will brick your phone, you can simply boot up safestrap and switch back to your original safe system.

This is different than dualbooting because it is not quite as easy to switch between systems as dualbooting is. As in you don't select one on start up and boot into the one of your choice at the same speed.

Hey guys, i wanted to know is there a Mod or a method where i can Enable 3g/4g on my Samsung Note through Simple mobile? I only get Edge service under this company " Simple Mobile" which they state their service is powered through T-mobile Towers. Can anyone help ? :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gedster314:
N7000 does not support TMobile 3G. Someone is working on it but no luck yet.

If you want TMobile 3G, move to an area where TMobile has started using the 1900 Mhz band for buy an ATT Note and do the hack. The N7000 uses a different radio chipset so moding the firmware from the Skyrocket will not work on the N7000. So don't even ask about using the ATT hack on the N7000. It's been mentioned by virtually every newbie, you will get flamed!

[Sony Tablet S] Warren_Orange:
Hi.

In thinking about buying one of the gel skins off eBay USA. I've just got the tablet and I'm finding it a bit plasticky and hollow sounding. I'm thinking that a skin might deaden the sound a bit.

Can anyone vouch for the quality of them?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Soft-Gel-Si...?pt=US_Tablet_Accessories&hash=item33729d73ce
[Sony Tablet S] Cat McGowan:
Looks good and US $11.99 is not a bad price. Amazon.com has the same item labeled "by Sony" in black (ASIN: B007BXZI2O) and purple (ASIN: B007BXZYPA) for US $7.99 with free Amazon Prime Membership 2-day shipping. Non-Prime standard 3-day shipping is probably US $2.99, but I'm guessing the cost.
[Sony Tablet S] Warren_Orange:
Hi Cat.

I'll be shipping to the UK so I need to factor in shipping. The Amazon one just looks like the same one off ebay - it doesn't look Sony branded.

For some bizarre reason I can't find them in the UK at all. Very strange.

They are both roughly the same price so I'll just choose either.

Thanks.
[Sony Tablet S] meechieballer:
i seen that cover but only question is that will the case cover the IR remote on top of the tablet?
[Sony Tablet S] Cat McGowan:
I ordered one from Amazon.com and will receive it tomorrow evening. After I install it on the tablet, I will post here to let you know whether or not the skin covers the IR sensor.

Edit: I received and installed the skin. Fits well. None of the tablet's features (power plug, buttons, speakers, etc.) are blocked. And yes, there is a hole for the IR sensor.
[Sony Tablet S] Warren_Orange:
Hi Cat.

Please tell me what you think of the skin as I'm close to ordering one myself. Please tell me if its a tight fit (a must) and whether you think that it makes the tablet feel too think.

I really want one to make the tablet feel more solid in the hand. As much as I love Google and hate Apple I really miss the build quality of my old iPad 1. I also think HC is an abomination of an OS - What were Google thinking!!

Look forward to your report and pics would be nice if possible :)
[Sony Tablet S] Cat McGowan:
I purchased a black skin (ASIN: B007BXZI2O) from Amazon.com, so go to their web site to see photographs. I like the skin. Its color is a perfect dark charcoal. It fits very well and tighly hugs the tablet's form. When I am handling the tablet, the skin does not feel like it is going to fall off and the back part does not feel floppy. It has a good industrial rubber feel and it makes the tablet feel more solid and protected, which is a plus for me because I am an industrial controls engineer and I frequently use my tablet in the field. The skin has openings in all the right places and does not block any of the tablet's features. I feel purchasing the skin was a wise choice.
[Sony Tablet S] Warren_Orange:
Thanks for the update.

Looks like I will be purchasing one ASAP :)
[Sony Tablet S] Warren_Orange:
I've just tried to purchase it off Amazon but they don't ship to the UK.

I'll have to purchase the one off ebay. It looks the same but you never know until you get it.
[Sony Tablet S] Warren_Orange:

Do you have the Sony cradle and if so, does the tablet fit in there with the skin on it? Thanks!

Yes, I have a cradle and no, the tablet will not fit into the cradle if the skin is on it. But the skin is easy to remove and put back on (I do it carefully, taking my time), so it is not a problem for me.
[Sony Tablet S] Warren_Orange:
Hi all.

I got the skin in the post the other day. I'm not too impressed with it TBH. It is not the snuggest of fits - its a bit loose.

The skin is not the most snuggest of fits.. but it does the trick.

It attrackts dust and dirt a bit .. think that will wear of eventually.

Does'nt effect the feel of the tablet.

Will protect the tablet from getting damaged when bumping into ground furniture..

(broke of part of the curled cover edge when on holiday, it dropped from a bed, that would not have happened if i had a skin that time).

will do fine for a while... hope someone will make one which will fit in the cradle ...

For those who are new or didnt know, when you flash the new RUU make sure its flashed twice in bootloader. First flash updates the HBOOT and others. Then reboots back to BL. You arent done, yet ! Flash the RUU so itll finish, this part usually takes the longest.

Just a reminder if some say their radios didnt update or notice a change.
[HTC Rezound] escosk8r:
Simple yet helpful advice. When I first flashed my first RUU, this was something I did not know and took a little while to figure out that running the RUU through bootloader twice is what it takes to fully update. Thanks for the post!!
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
Yes this is true...the same thing happened with the first ICS leak where it was necessary to run the RUU twice.

The interesting thing is the radios appear to be the same as the previous ICS leak.

[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Right and Wrong

You are right that it is a great idea to flash the update PKxxxx.zip image twice.

You are wrong to say one needs to run a RUU twice. THESE THINGS ARE NOT RUU'S. RUU is a Rom Upgrade UTILITY. It is in the form of a EXE. It is truly the nuclear option to bring your phone back to pure stock and fix what ails it because it is a pure factory wipe and does a lot of other stuff as is all preset by the EXE running on your PC.

This stuff is simply an image which is flashed on your phone. It is NOT a RUU, does not do everything a RUU does, and one does not need to run a RUU twice.

Ugh.
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
ok first of all no the OP is correct in calling it an RUU.

second:

[flame on]

we don't need your negativity on this forum. Just because its an img file and not an exe doesn't change the fact that its still a RUU. RUU stands for ROM Update Utility. i see no where in that name suggesting it has to be an exe. I want you to look for the real definition of RUU, one not posted on a forum, but from a real site. you will not find ANYWHERE that an RUU MUST be an exe. If the img is updating the phone to a newer rom then it is in fact an RUU because its Updating the phones Rom with a Utility (aka tool).
