No i do not. I would have to do that. Simple enough?

I used to root android phones, before my iphone, with my windows computer...but I mostly used prepacked all-in-one root tools.

Love you galaxy nexus? I was back and forth about it all day (I have a ipad 3 and mac)...but in the end I feel like the galaxy nexus will be the more capable device.

3.5 inch screen is way too small....at least for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cbutt:
Yes, it's quite simple. I'm a visual learner, so I youtubed tutorials on it. You'll be good to go in no time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maverickrulz:
Not difficult at all. As mentioned by the previous user, you'll find lots of guide videos on YouTube.

And once you'll get hold on using Fastboot... you won't need any application or achieve what you want.

Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freakazoid1988:
Besides, Nexus phones are easier to root because Google itself lets you unlock the bootloader with Android SDK. No "hack" needed or stuff and warranty won't be voided.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Unlawful:
Well, it *does* void your warranty, it's just that you can always re-lock your bootloader and reverse whatever you've done. It's actually *quite hard* to brick the Galaxy Nexus to the point where you'll require a new phone.

OP: Go to this website and download the SDK Tools for Mac and then you'll only need to download the "platform-tools" in the SDK Tools to root, unlock bootloader etc. It's only if you intend to make apps will you be required to download the APIs and other things.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wilsonium:
Hard to brick but be careful...

If you use Google Wallet at all, flashing ROMS can bork up the Secure Element that Google Wallet uses. If they get out of sync it's possible to permanently get them out of sync an you'll lose Google Wallet functionality. There are instructions in the forums on how to do it safely.
[HTC One X] techtechnique:
Hi.

I'm almost certain someone else must have experienced the same problems I've had but I can't find anything already posted so if I have duplicated someone's thread I apologise.

I rooted my phone using the usual process I found on here.

Downloaded my OTA as supplied by my carrier, 3UK and it failed in CWM recovery, no matter which toggle or option was selected.

I found a thread that instructed me to restore the stock recovery and relock the Bootloader. Tried the OTA again. Still no joy.

I then flashed the original RUU which worked and then the OTA worked perfectly.

For some reason or other, it must have been important but I can't remember what, I had to restore my nandroid backup taken before I started to apply the 1.28OTA (so stock 1.26 ROM, rooted, CWM), which had reverted me back to 1.26. However, trying to then reflash the original stock RUU failed. Strange, as the exact same RUU worked flawlessly less than an hour earlier.

The only difference I noticed was the HBOOT remained at the 0.93 that it had changed to following the OTA update, although the radio version had reverted to the original 1.12.

Anyway, I decided to take the plunge and flash the excellent ARHD ROM, which is working fantastically.

How the hell do I update the radio to the latest version? I had hoped that the ARHD ROM would contain the new radio within the flash, but it looks as if no ROM flashes the radio on this phone.

Thanks.
[HTC One X] techtechnique:
Anyone?
[HTC One X] Narcal:
I'm not 100% sure but it's not yet possibile flashing radios&rils, for some limitation due to the actual rooting process.
[HTC One X] dr9722:
Until we have S-Off there is no way to flash a new radio.
[HTC One X] techtechnique:
Ok, I accept that, but what I don't understand is that I'm pretty sure on my old Desire I could flash different radios without being S-OFF.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
An older bootloader system was in use with the Desire, HTC have changed it a lot since then
[HTC One X] backfromthestorm:
I couldn't flash radios or hboots on desire until s-off. The ruu should still work though. Maybe wrong or older version.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xepter:
Was wondering if people kept their fastboot on or off and why

since I use two phones and the one x at night I keep it off so I can swap sims

P.S. found in power settings
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beaups:
I leave mine off since it says it may cause issues with certain apps. And since I rarely reboot, there's no use screwing with it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vballrkc:
so, anyone know if there is/what is the best pdf viewer to view multiple pdfs (for my needs they will be chord charts and lyrics for songs) in page by page format, almost like a power point slide show, maybe just a swipe of the screen or click of the side of the screen would bring up the next pdf. thanks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] techfreakster:
I use an app called MobileSheets for this. It appears to be the only app available for Android that can do this. Fortunately, it's a pretty good app and it has support for BT pages turners if that is something might need. It's worth mentioning that the developer is very responsive to issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
I don't use unlimited data anymore. Ever since I got a home wifi router, I use less than 200MB data a month.

I pay $75 a month for the cheapest, employer discounted plan with Sprint.

It seems like ATT would offer $40 (cheapest phone) + $20 (300MB data) - employer discount (I don't know how much). So, I'd be paying a much lower monthly charge with ATT.

Or so it seems. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Plus, I'll be getting One X (s4) just after it was released, enjoying a new gen phone.

Your thoughts?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] caseyatbt:
Sounds like a no brainer.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] naripsta:
Sounds like the smarter move to just go with ATT. You'd save a few bucks, which add up over time. I'd do it if you don't need/use the unlimited data.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chasoo:
I think it makes sense for you to switch if your cancellation with Sprint isn't too painful. If there are multiple phones on the account, multiply the cancellation fees.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ReActiveDisorder:
Im a data holic but if you really dont use a lot of data then its a no brainer ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] j_shelton1988:
Don't forget texting. That's an additional 20 or 30, I can't remember, unless you use Google voice
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] namakemono1776:
At&t is 20 for unlimited text on a single plan and 30 on a family plan.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
20 for 300mb of data? That's highway robbery. I hope you don't want to send or receive texts because that's another charge. ATT nickle and dime their customers to death. If you want cheap, and it's available, go with a prepay account or go with metropcs. From your explanation, it doesn't look like you're going to get insurance for your phone. You say you'll be getting a one x when you go there yet you don't want to use data on the network. What's the use of getting one of the top of the line phones with LTE when you want to only get the 300mb data per month option? To me, that doesn't make much sense. I'm assuming you have a e4gt now. Why don't you get a free basic phone from ATT and use your e4gt on wifi only? You can save another 20 bucks by not getting data on a free phone. I don't care what you do, that's your decision. Some people have left only to find out the grass isn't greener on the other side of the fence.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] The Root:
Also how is call service? My friend gets all data no phone. And even data is comparable to everyone else.

I was with att for 8 years and refuse to go back. Customer service is horrible and I always had dropped calls. Plus they nickel and dime you for everything they can.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BrandoKC:
Just remember the AT&T One X has a locked down bootloader. I worked for AT&T as a Field Technician for several years. I had to constantly use my personal phone because of AT&T's awful network.

Look into T-Mobile if you really need to change. They should save you some money.

---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 PM ----------

Also, I currently have a BB through AT&T for work and the signal is so spotty I just use Exchange on my E4GT. My boss has an iPhone that constantly drops calls.

As far as T-mo goes, I had them for 8 years in KC and dropped 2 calls the whole time. Maybe look at an unlocked GNex for 399 and go with one of their pre-paid plans.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
I've rarely done surveys. I block their phone number when they call too. I love when my gf is a smart ass towards them. Csr: Can you say I helped you resolve your issue today? Her: I don't know, I'll have to wait and see if it works now. I'll sometimes feel like being a troll and score them the lowest marks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Majin101:
Sprint 3g in my area is some short not even 3g !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
I suppose all the carriers are like that. In some places they have good or acceptable service, and other places its horrible.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] The Root:
Those survey probably help determine how much a kid with a bunch of student debt gets paid. Wtg, ****. Really funny.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DexterDawg:
Why are you even considering that change? Go to boost mobile. $50 period. All unlimited, no contract.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sycobob:
More like....airwave robbery. YEEEEAAAAHHHH.

But seriously, if you aren't taking full advantage of the unlimited data and the competitors network in your area is better, I would definitely switch. Personally, my data speeds are so terrible I don't even bother using my phone off of Wifi. Yet my girlfriends AT&T SGS2 hauls ass pretty much everywhere she goes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] azyouthinkeyeiz:
I said this all the time to my SAR, when he started being a **** about CSAT averages. It is easy to brag about it, when you are padding and stuffing the stats. It is such a snake oil salesman tactic, and I encouraged my customers to answer honestly. I will never beg for a five.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
Well, it is official, both ATT and Tmob have really ****ty reception in my town.

And Verizon isn't getting a One X.

Sigh. Highway robbery is staying with sprint and getting a fugly Evo lte (who the **** designed that abomination?) I only use about 150 megs or a month. I don't even know why it's so high.

Or maybe switching to Verizon for gs3 when that comes out (who knows when).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
@nabbed

I'm not calling you a liar. I find it hard to believe and comprehend someone using 150mb or less a month in data on a top of the line smartphone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
The survey helps determine how the customer service reps are doing.. if customers dont take it fine.. if they take it and bull**** its useless.. if they answer accordingly it helps.. and to the person who said sprint got number 1 is a lie.. us cellular has held the customer service champion for a few years now.. and they definately do not suck except for tue fact there barely coming out with 4g lte this year and they dont sell service in every state but do have nationwide coverage.. they beat all major carriers in cust service.. and trust me, we always have to make sure the phone is working before we get off the phone or we FAIL our qa.. if we dont fix it tech has no problem doing AEs for phones under warranty, phone replacement or device protection claim. Not to mention the belief pts which will allow you to upgrade way sooner than any other carrier.. id take them over sprint any day.. as for the op, if you dont use your data you can get a 300mb data package from us cellular thats tiered in case you go over.. they just got the sgs2 but you might not be in a 4g area and they only have one 4g phone right now called the galaxy aviator
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daryelv:
He uses 150mb of Sprint data, he said in a previous post that he uses WiFi at home. My wife uses 150-170mb each month on her NS4G, but she's always on WiFi while at home.

-Daryel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
The only time I'm not on wifi is when I'm at work or driving.

It may also be soon that I'll be on wifi at work too.

I think all the phone does on 3g data is check for weather and news every hour.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
How is that highway robbery? Someone pays less for 300mb.. why pay more for more data thats not going to be used? And check about overages.. if its pay per mb over ur data limit then yes highway robbery.. but i think having the option to pay 20$ for what you use is better than paying more fr more data that wont be used.. then it would become a waist
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
Agreed.. on wifi at home i use a few mbs in an entire month of my sprint data.. but i cant have my phone during the day.. dont have 4g in my area.. and dont dl on 3g because its slow.. everybodies usage is different and thats why they have a variety of data packages to choose from.. the carrier is suppose to get you on something for your usage vs trying to sell you way more than what you need just to earn extra bucks and unhappy customers
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iahk:
If you work in the mobile phone customer service business and review alot of usage history from customers, this is not uncommon at all. That's why the kneejerk reaction from such a large amount of users when data tiers/throttling came into play was funny to me. I can definitely see it coming from users like us here on xda forums, but when the regular joe calls in voicing their concern about it and then I show them their data usage history on their iphone (i used to work at ATT) for the prior 6 months where they averaged barely 100MB a month, they breathe a sigh of relief.

Much like OP here, I'm going to be moving to ATT when my contract is up in 6 months. I went through this in my head a couple times (since I've been with Sprint for 10yrs) and the benefits really outweigh everything else. Sprint's 3G is quite horrible here in Raleigh unless it's late at night.. you get about 1.5Mbps at night but at its max during the day, you'll get 30KB/sec. Also compounded with the fact that Sprint will only be releasing LTE phones now and I don't see my city getting LTE anytime soon, will mean if I upgrade, I'll be stuck using 3G only. No thanks.

Also, I have my parents on my bill too. Since Sprint bundles everything into their plans, I'm paying for way more than I need to since my parents don't really use data/messaging services. I can better customize my plan over at ATT, and drop messaging and use only Google Voice. After my calculations, I can easily save $40 a month.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mohan_kr:
You assume full responsibility for flashing this. It is the Stock Kernel (from the UCLD3 leak) with modified initramfs to support bootanimation, adb root, adb bash and init.d (via busybox run-parts).

This is mainly targeted for ROM cooker's or if you want to flash the UCLD3 ICS Kernel. Although custom kernel is not possible till Samsung does the source drop (probably after the official release), but there is a whole lot of tweaking that is possible with init scripts. I like using this mechanism then baking it in the init.rc.

For init.d support:

* busybox must be installed. and init script should be located in /system/etc/init.d

* bootanimation: drop the bootanimation.zip in /system/media.

* The init script execute last so you can override a lot of kernel parameters. (And yes, there are a LOT of tweaks you can do with the stock kernel).

* [UCLD3 KERNEL CWM FLASHABLE ZIP] Download

* DG and the unknown source for the leak.

* appdroid for providing me the files and pushing me to build one. Note: it has been verified by appdroid to be working.

Mods if this is not the right place for this, please feel free to move it.

Future tweak to your custom Kernel

Your custom kernel is being used in The Collective - The Unofficial v2.0 Beta 4 ROM. It's great with the exception that any ICS leak does not seem to like left handed people :( TouchScreenTune, seemed to work great for me on GB to fine tune my s-pen responses. Unfortunately this is a requirement:

Custom kernels: app requires kernel with KALLSYMS, so ask developer of your kernel to include this in his config when building kernel: CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y, CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y

Please!Please!Please!

Hi to All !!:D

this is an aplication for make swap in your device but

what is swap?

swapper is an application that uses part of the SD memory to generate more virtual memory and see your performance improve

THIS NO WORK ON STOCK KERNEL YOU NEED UNLOCK BOOTLOADER AND YES THIS WORKS IN CM7 AND CM9 YOU DON'T HAVE TO PARTITION THE SD CARD

instructions to install:

download swapper from here

screenshot

after install the app, launch the app and writes on the white line of what you want your swap, remember that selecting an amount doubles for example: You CHOOSE 300 mb of memory, those 300 will become 600 and 400 to 800 and on

screenshot]

when the swap is this turning takes 5 to 10 minutes and NOT TURN OFF THE SCREEN WHY THE PROCESS CAN LEAVE BAD

remember that you must deactivate the swap to connect the USB cable and then turn it back on, disconnect the phone also restart is disabled, enter only put "deactivate swap" and put "save", then re-enter and to "activate swap "and" save "

also if you have a 4GB SD memory of 300 MB is recommended to 600 if the device is not encouraging, and 8GB of 300 to 800, I use 700 MB for swap and is very fast :D

before swap

with swap

IF YOU HAVE MINICM9 GO TO SETTINGS - PERFORMANCE - MEMORY MANAGEMENT AND DISABLE ZRAM

sorry for the images.... i don't know how put a preview :( but is there :D
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] alinefds:
That's what I was looking for.

To use this application, I'll need to partition my SD Card? :confused:

Sorry for my bad English.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] xperia_pro:
no, just choose the amount of mb that you used and go!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] alinefds:
Is there a difference between this mode and another that asks to partition?

And what is the difference between swapper and swapper 2?

Excuse me for asking too many questions, but I'm with many doubts.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] xperia_pro:
yes this only is for virtual memory, and the others is for apps to sd

well..... swapper 2 for me is more stable than swapper 2 for me cuases various FC'S

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] xperia_pro:
yes :) just follow the instructions and see the screenshots :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Tom.K:
But swap file should have bigger swappiness, "Swapper" gives only 10, which is almost nothing IMO... unless you can find something to activate bigger swappiness (except Swapper 2, it's pain in ass).

Note: You need to disable Compcache/zRAM as those features use swap too, causing conflicts. After enabling swap, make sure to check in some app where you can see memory details that swap is running on your defined size, it might be possible that there's no swap space or that zRAM/Compcache is still active instead.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Cloulu:
I don't understand, i activate the swap( like you said) but, my memory free is just 28mb... i make a swap of 512mb( 16gb SD Card)...

Why?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Sp4rrow:
To see if it works you need to type 'free' in terminal emulator. AFAIK swap must be supported by kernel and some custom kernels support it.

making swap using cwm

i am telling you another way of making swap without the swapper app

AND PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SDCARD ON YOUR PC BEFORE USING THIS METHOD

for this you must have clockworkmod recovery on your phone

just go to cwm recovery by pressing back botton when starting the phone

then go to ‘advance‘ using vol down key and press menu to enter then go to ‘partition sd card‘ and make partition of your choice

to confirm open ‘terminal emulator‘ and write ‘free‘ hit enter

yuppyyy you got

and please make a back of your sd card on computer as this will format your sd card
