[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
I was thinking.

When ICS is released here in New Zealand....

Would it be possible for someone to change their region to New Zealand (providing it is added to AIO region changer (Great work BTW Condi)) recieve the OTA update and decrypt and add Root etc to it....

Then share that file to me or anyone with NZ region tablet.. and i would be able to gain root from this????

If this is possible we could start a sort of pay-it-forward system. Where someone would do it for me and then I would do it for someone else etc etc.

Just thinking of ways to get around this kernel 10 bastard : ). That some of us are stuck with ATM.

Any ideas if this could work, have been trying to get my head around it all day :P.
[Sony Tablet S] Nesquick95:
Kernel 10 will resist

Without root, we can only flash official updates signed by Sony... And of course, we don't have Sony's private key to sign any customized / rooted update (well, it's private) :rolleyes:

Condi has find a way to flash test-signed updates within his tool but we already need to have root in order to run it.

Our tablet's bootloader is locked, we don't actually know how to run it in fastboot mode so no ClockWorkMod recovery for us.

The only way now is to wait for a kernel exploit like GingerBreak, ZergRush or Mempodroid that will root our tablet or expect another device specific exploit (like Dan Rosenberg's for HoneyComb tablet S not in kernel #10).

So be patient, again and again... :(
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Ok.... Is the root etc added to the tablet before/during the image flashing, or is it added to the zip file???

If it is added to the zip could we not use that zip on other consoles providing the were in the same region i.e nbx03_033 (NZ)?
[Sony Tablet S] Nesquick95:
We (Condi! ) can open an official zip update file and add root in it.

By doing this, we modify the archive's checksums and invalidate the original signature. We can't rebuild it because it needs secrets from Sony. So we sign the zip with a test key, I think taken from the Android Software Development Kit.

This modded zip can be only flashed to a rooted device because root is needed to disable Sony's signature check and temporary replace it by the test signature check in the Android update mechanism.

That's why we can't flash a modded update to our not rooted HoneyComb devices...
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Ahhh gotcha, damn.
[Sony Tablet S] Nesquick95:
So we must find a so called "local root" in order to gain root from the inside :

- Linux kernel exploit, searched by many but very hard to find and immediatly patched (well, our banks have Linux on their backoffice servers too) ;

- Device specific exploit, searched by few but a little easier to find (they have some easy methods on Acer devices, for example) and patched only by the device's provider when he has time for that.

That's what the rooting thing looks like for kernel #10 / not pre-rooted ICS users...
[Sony Tablet S] xyancompgeek:
I know that its a stupid idea, but some softwares like quick boot can get you into the bootloader. would that help for checking fastboot? I'm not an expert, just suggesting.
[Sony Tablet S] Nesquick95:
What I know about this :

- no buttons combination (power + volume up/down) to enter fastboot mode ;

- command "adb reboot bootloader" leads to a normal boot.

Some people here have once reported entering a kind of "download" mode by testing things on their tablet but neither know how nor how to go back in it.

Well... Even if someone finds a way, I guess that command "fastboot oem unlock" won't work so we won't be able to flash anything. But as I was saying in another post, Sony techs must have an easy way to flash bricked tablets... Maybe a low-level tool like Samsung's Odin.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] silvernirvash:
Hi guys I know this seems pretty far fetched but is anyone willing to develop a port of the GB MIUI to the Bionic? If its POSSIBLE why hasn't anyone done it? If it isn't possible why can't it be done? I'm still trying to understand why no one's attempted this task since it has been the most popular rom up to date and it seems like MIUI4ever has just dropped off the face of the earth as of late. while i'm a big fan of InSaNeMoD's attempt to port it properly i'm seriously missing my OG Droid for my MIUI rom.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Feras.Rehman:
I could try porting it, no guarentees though! :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] pyroemaniac:
I would definitely like to have this as well!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] silvernirvash:
I've wondered why no one did this first to begin with! Want a fully working rom other than eclipse and liberty. They both look similar and all other roms have the same issues making them unfit to be my daily driver as much as I want them to be.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] billoflading:
First of all sorry about my English

I've Xperia S. My phone is unlocked bootloader and root with kernel DooMKernel v.03a. I've flashed a custom rom is KA03 Xperia SSpeed. But now, my phone can not boot normal. It's only show logo kernel and logo Xperia and then reboot. I also forgot to backup. When I use fastboot mode, its can not, led blue show a few second then back to logo kernel and xperia. I've try use fastboot mode in recovery, but can not.

Pls help me to rescue my phone!!! What step I must to do?

Tks for watching and help me!

Best regard.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Easiest way - just reflash the FTF your ROM is based on without wiping data. Should get you stock ROM and kernel and preserve all your stuff.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] billoflading:
Pls show me step by step, because i can not into fastboot mode, and rom stock is *.img, where can i take FTF rom??? And how to reflash?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] billoflading:
Sorry, i'm not good in English.

I've search, but they say go into fastboot mode, i can't go into this mode, because the led blue show some second and then reboot, hic.. :(

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Bulletblitz27:
I am using a stock battery on my G2x and am debating purchasing a new one on Amazon. This is my last reading from 100 to 0 percent : (attached files)

Are the results good or should I purchase a new battery? And if so, which one? No batteries that require a bigger back door please, thanks!

Also, I am running 4.0.4
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SefEXE:
I can pull a little more than that if I'm not fighting for signal...

Do you use anything like Juice Defender? Or maybe a similar function within the ROM?

I'd try stuff like that before purchasing a battery. But... it's always nice to have a spare.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thor6577:
Actually I see that your screen display is taking up the most battery so just lower the brightness of your phone and you will see results.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Bulletblitz27:
Thanks for the reply! I use a battery saving app... forgot the name of it. I know the app icon is an Android.

The screen was hogging up the battery because I was using my phone a lot. Games and browsing.

Thanks for the feedback.

It appears as though your phone never went to sleep?

Were you using the phone the ENTIRE time? Cause with only 3 hours of screen time and 7 hours of uptime, then why was the phone not sleeping at least a little bit in the extra 4 hours there?

i got almost 3.5 days when i changed over to EB 4.0.4 with some texting, a few calls, a couple hours of reddit, and lots of mp3 playing. so far with having the g2x i have found that using auto with the screen and keeping wifi off will give alot of battery life no matter what with custom roms.

i am also using the anticipatory scheduler so it jumps around and a bit of undervolting.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WaterSoldier:
Just Rooted New Color according to Manual Nooter, All went well but did not see but a few apps on the store, so I followed other directions on page to show all apps, restarted and now getting a Server Error message on the Play Store Page, will not connect, checked settings and could not find anything in that, I cleared Cache and Data on Google Framwork and on Market Like was told to do.. Not sure..

Also on a side not, I have a perfectly rooted Tablet and does not keep bringing up CWM evertime I turn on and off, Would you please also help Mount that on the Color so that I may Unmount the SD card without starting over..

Thank you much for the help.. Will give a boost in Rep..

Also if you could point me to a few other pages needed to root and change settings to what I may need to do and read.. Again thank you..

I guess the Question to ask, Should I have a whole list of Apps on the Play store too?? Or a very very Limited number of apps.. I'm guessing a total of about `15` Pretty sad if that's what I'm looking forward to.

Nevermind, This post can be deleted, I figured it out..

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eidoil32:
Before I startת I tried to find this problem also search on Google and here but could not find any information about this problem.

This night I did not put the device to a charger because he had already 90% battery, so I left it disconnected,in the morning I got up I saw the phone is turn off, I tried to turn the phone light up and the ATT screen turn on,

I went and when I came back after 10 minutes I saw that the phone is still stuck on the "Galaxy S" screen.

I removed battery, changed, and it's still stuck.

I'm running version CM7.1,

The phone can get into the recovery menu.

Can anyone help me?

I do not understand in the android system and I don't have any backups of my pictuers...

Any chance to save the phone?

update: I search for a solution, and found on the CWM the option of "Mount USB storage" and I copied my pictures to my computer...

so now my new question is how can I get the phone to turn on again? only format and install new rom?

I can use CM7.2 zip file and install via the recovery menu?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IrishJim68:
I have a similar problem. Like eidoll32, I did not plug in my cappy and when I went to turn it on the next day, I was only able to get a boot loop at the AT&T screen. Currently, I cannot get into recovery, but only download mode.

I originally rooted the phone with the Galaxy_One_Click_Root tool, and installed CyanogenMod 7.1 for the captivate, when CM7.2 went to RC1, I flashed that from CWM, doing a full wipe. Later I wanted to try ICS, so I flashed AOKP - captivatemtd - M5 b30, doing a full wipe (twice).

That's where I was when this happened, and where I am now.
[Touch HD General] vxxxxx:
Hi ,

My Touch HD has problem after i talked in rain. Maybe some rain got inside the phone. The problem is no response when i touch the screen. It can properly boot up and I can see the windows screen. I want to know is it the screen problem or another components damage?

Thanks in advance!!

[Touch HD General] mfsr98:
Nobody can know if that's the problem, maybe some pic's would help? I'm not a masterpiece in hardware talk, but probably the screen digitizer is broken (since there is no response). If you can switch the digitizer, there's some for 30,00 € in e-bay :/

Oh, did you install a ROM recently? Might be a bad flashed one :)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] aj79:
I have the Acer A100 running 2.007.04_EMEA_GB, has anyone had this auto update yet? or is there any word when we will get the ICS update here in the UK?

also if I were to flash one of the ICS roms or the 3.2GEN1 rom, would I need to root the Tablet first? or is it just put the update.zip on the external SD and boot into recovery?

Cheers
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] MrCubbins:
I got the OTA update to my 2.007.04_EMEA_GB this morning here in Quebec (07/05). I was concerned because all the comments seemed to be about GEN1 or 2, but decided to just be patient. Nothing had led me to believe that Acer wouldn`t provide an update despite some of the hysteria that was being whipped up in some threads over on acertabletforums. The Acer website stated the roll out would take a week or so and previous experience with phone updates has taught me you can wait up to a month for these things to happen.

I was reluctant to use the full ROM provided by Zeronull as I didn`t want to change my tablet version to a GEN1 as I still have 9 months of warranty (which would have been invalidated). Until Acer release the source so the modders can bring significant changes in performance/functionality, I`ve avoided the temptation to install CWM.

The update came in two parts the same as for the GEN1/2. The first brought Honeycomb up to date and the second was ICS. It is perhaps worth noting that update only appeared when I checked manually rather than waiting for an auto check.

I don`t have my tablet to hand at the moment to give you the full ROM version, but I recall it ended in a 15. Crucially though, it is still an EMEA_GB version of the ROM with all the language packs included.

Performance is MUCH improved, with boot up time now at 50sec where previously it took 1min20.

Zen Pinball scrolls super smoothly in the close up view now whereas it lagged in HC.

Both cameras seem to register colour better than before as experienced on Skype this morning (though they are still very mediocre). Anecdotally, audio seemed a bit louder too with me not needing the volume at max the hear the caller. This however could just be the individual circumstances of the call and I will test more later.

Browsing is faster with pages like Eurogamer and Engadget loading quicker and not "tiling" when scrolling down fast. Also, the ability to customize the font size makes reading web pages for extended periods much more comfortable.

Apologies for being a bit long winded; I hope my response was helpful.

I have had the Arrive for about a month and I have to say the 3g is horrible everywhere in Houston. I have had Android phones and some of the kernal's allow you to change radios.
