[HTC Sensation] duryard:
This is not possible and I cant remember quite how I did it but :-

Sorry about the crap pic. Wife's SGS2 lol
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
so the question is how did you this indeed :-)
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
well dont quote me on this but

Downgraded to 1.17

rev unlock

upgrade (by 2 steps I think) to get back to 1.27

htc dev unlock

and thats what came up
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
so "quote" :p, how to downgrade, tried different RUU's but all hung on an error.

Can't write device (or something similar).
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
Tried: root-sensation-windows from: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25910487&postcount=53

Shows me:

ECHO EVERYTHING DONE..ROOT SUCCESS...ONE FINAL REBOOT NOW

But after the reboot, still no root, so no flashing yet....
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
what exactly are you trying to achieve by rooting?

There is a way to install 4ext recovery which gives you a sort of root on 1.27 that allows flashing
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
i just want to use my phone as i always did, flashing roms, compiling stuff etc. This hboot (1.27) won't let me do anything, can't flash **** anymore
[HTC Sensation] AngryB:
This happens because after you reset the phone back to its original ****...
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
i think i'll just sell it with the default stuff on it, and buy a S2 :-) or swap it with a S2
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
Ok I will need to find the post and the file. was a while ago so don't hold your breath
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
Cool, let me know if you find it :)
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
Think this is it.

Here's 4EXT in PG58IMG.zip form. Flash via HBOOT (not stock recovery)

Attached Files

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8397645/PG58IMG.zip
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
ok, so it checking the zip file, and then it just quits the checking and that's it, this happens with all the PG58IMG.zip files i try. It looks like a flash block or something, idk, weird stuff.
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
bit of a long shot. Try downgrading. Then flash the PG58IMG
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
downgrading with an official RUU doesn't work either, just device write errors, nothing specific...
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
Official RUU from KPN ?
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
i tried multiple. Do you have a link to the kpn one? Can always try it
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
superd CID

flash 3.32 firmware

flash a rooted Rom that has EXT Recovery (like Elegancia), but it has to be flashed TWICE to get the recovery installed
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
supercid requires root right?
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
Even if you do it via adb fastboot?
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
OK something to look into
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300

Step 4
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
so super cid won't work either....

fastboot getvar cid : VODAPE17

fastboot oem writecid 11111111

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot getvar cid : VODAPE17
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
I assume that you where in bootloader/hboot mode??
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
fastboot mode :P
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
I dont want to assume you are a newbie (not that there is anything wrong with that) but did you follow the instructions to the letter from step 1 to step 11 of part 4. and not just the commands.

You need usb debugging selected on the phone and adb tools etc on your pc and your phone must reboot to bootloader.

You can put it in bootloader manually but you still need adb tools to do the commands from the command line stuff
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
yeah, it just doesn't work :-) i'm starting to dislike this stuff :D, temp root works btw

but now you need to flash the recovery to the right partition, i think it was /dev/block/mmcblk0p21

so:

dd if=/data/local/tmp_recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21 could work, have to try it out.
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
well command works, but doesn't write anything, it's really locked.... I think i have to wait for a fix by alpharev&unrevoked or somebody else :)
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
While you are waiting you could contact htc and find out why htc devunlock does not work for you. It should as they say they are committed to unlock bootloader?
[HTC Sensation] peewster:
good point :-)

[HTC Sensation] quietmoth:
Strange... Are we not all equals ?.. I had a not so cooperative HTC Sensation (as far as Boot unlocking is concerned) from SFR (VODAxxxx) running on Gingerbread. So, I just flashed a generic Europe ICS RUU (...) .exe straight from windows at least to get rid of all the SFR & A1 apps & services. Then, I thought I'd try my luck on HTCDev site, followed the procedure and unlocked it was !.. I later flashed Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed and got root...

Cheers !
[HTC Sensation] duryard:
Think that is something along the lines of how I did it. Flashed a ruu back to gingerbread, rooted and flashed a recovery (4EXT) then flashed ICS Rom with root. Elegancia.

I can not unlock it.

HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP! :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

what error did JB gave you ?

did it say the phone is not rooted ?

also did temp_root.bat ran successfully?

after temp root ..your phone should have black screen with only status bar ..did your phone had that ?

if phone is not rooted ..check the troubleshoot solution 1

then do the temp root again ..then run the JB

EDIT: wait it seems like you downloaded the wrong version of JB (controlbear)

please download the correct JB ..point 6 in the steps :)

Hello.

In the keyboard config I've disabled "Spell correction" and "Word completion". However it still shows me suggestions and pressing space replaces whatever I typed with first suggestion. This is absolutely annoying, cause I mostly write in russian translit...

I really like the keyboard and hate replace it with something else.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

[EDIT]

Found it, needed disable "trace keyboard", it will enable "Spell correction" and "Word completion" for standard keyboard.
[General Questions and Answers] Chyrio:
hey guys i found references to custom radios around saying that the radio in a device is what connects to the tower. i knew that but what exactly does a custom radio do? better service? better data? whats up with them like i have a galaxy nexus and i see fd02 and fd12 radios but i have no idea what each radio will do to my phone by installing it?
[General Questions and Answers] SPBoss:
Updating radio firmware only affects mobile data and mobile network signal. There is no 'best' radio firmware. It depends on your phone and the area you are in. Try a couple of the latest and see if you get an improvement in signal. Hope that helps :)

I'm not sure bro I'm only experienced with galaxy s2. I'm sure the guys in the nexus forums can help you out.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wedg11383:
I know that the Andromadous Rom now includes a toggle to remove the ime switcher notification that is a feature in ICS. I would like to see this feature in the CM9 unofficial Beta. Is it possible to port it over? Can the framework be edited to accomplish this? I would ask in the development thread, but I still don't have the necessary number of posts. Thank you in advance.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blk_jack:
Of course it's possible, took me 5 mins to do with Andromadus . The issue really is that the dev of the Cm9 "unofficial" ROM is trying to keep the source as close to stock cm9 as possible. It doesn't look like the dev doing that rom is actually adding his own features, just merging in cm9 code and fixing bugs where appropriate.

That said, Andromadus is also based entirely off cm9, just with added features and similar bug fixes. If you want andromadus features, use andromadus. The roms are very similar anyway.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wedg11383:
How similar is Andromadus Beta 3 to CM9 Beta 5? Should I switch to Andromadus tests? I appreciate the response.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blk_jack:
They're almost identical. They're both based off the CM9 source code. There are some differences in the non-CM9 code they use (hardware-specific), and as I said Andromadus does contain custom features/fixes that the other ROM does not.

Try them both. Neither ROM is an official CM9 release & both arguably contain the same amount of CM9 code.

Any ideas?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xfinrodx:
So, you need a One XL that is rooted to do this. Pretty easy stuff.

Go to /system and mount it rw using your favorite method

Edit build.prop, probably line 8, "ro.ril.hsxpa=5" default is 4.

Reboot

Post whether this made a difference with HSPA (4G icon). Also include what value you used and the network & region tested against.

My after & before:

After that test I didn't go below 3000 down. Previously this device in my area seemed to max out below 3000 but I've since tested well over 4000. See if it works for you!

Also, if you feel brave, try 6. I've found that a value of 6 gets me up around 5000 down, but the connection stability is somewhat compromised. I have 3 bars where I am at, and as always with radio stuff:

YMMV

Gained 1mbps down(3.8), and slightly quicker upload(800kbps)

On Rogers
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xfinrodx:
It is important that comparison tests happen as close together as possible from a time perspective, and that the phone is in the same exact location and same exact orientation. Tests become meaningless when time difference is significant or phone location/orientation is changed.

I have observed a repeatable variation between 2 and 5 Mbit just by changing phone orientation. Be sure it's laying on a desk or something so repeated tests can be as meaningful as possible!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JeepFreak:
You should make sure it's using the same server too... Mine tried to use a different server the second time even though I was in the same location. I think it used the cell tower to fin my location one time and my GPS the second time.

Billy
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lessthanzach:
I had the same exact effect. My speeds actually suffered a bit in the same exact spot as prior to making the change. What I am interested in is the capability to turn LTE off so as to save battery life for those of us who live in HSPA areas only. I somehow doubt that is possible to do in a build.prop tweak though.

One other thing I noticed, prior to the change (from 4 to 5) my upload speed test was smoooth and right around the 1.1mbps upload speed. After I made the change to 5, my speed test would start spiked at ~2mbps, then freeze, then drop to 1.4 then freeze, then drop to 1.2 and so on. It wouldn't go any lower than 1.1 but it was super chunky feeling, like it was testing one block at a time very slowly. THIS could deeply impact using voip services such as Skype or Tango, especially when using video stream.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tom_m:
If you guys are having a hard time determining if this helps or not...It probably doesn't help. I would be careful with settings like this. Not that you can't easily revert them, but who knows...I'm just thinking logically if things keep going up and down and the difference is not significant and consistent then maybe it's not worth meddling with.

That said, does anyone even have a list of what all the numbers map to?

I saw this: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/9781-buildprop-roril-meanings/

But you're using values set higher which I imagine are new network specifications?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xfinrodx:
I don't believe that list to be comprehensive. Test methodology is very important here, as well as observing speed trends. At most times during the day I have a measured 2-3x improvement in download speeds using 6 rather than default 4. At other times it is merely as fast as it ever was.

I'm sure the difference is dependent on local towers, network, congestion and maybe some qos. It is up to the individual to determine whether it is worthwhile.

The setting could realistically mean anything to the network and phone. Maybe it's like putting a 2 gauge wire to your door speakers in your car. If you had 18 or 20 from the factory, the 2 will probably be better. If your factory (network) gave you a 12 gauge (12Mbit connection) wire, you really won't have any difference going to 2awg. Speculation, just as you'd get anywhere else. Remember to take your grain of salt with it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zAlbee:
Hi all,

Just got my Galaxy Nexus one week ago, the GSM unlocked version. I was looking for a specific app, so I accessed the Google Play store from my computer, and it seems Google knows I have a T-mobile phone! See attached pic. (Technically, it's true, I am using T-mobile service, but I'm pretty sure there is no such T-mobile branded Galaxy Nexus.) I just find that funny, especially since my phone was imported by Expansys (possibly from Russia, based on the included manual and charger that are printed in Cyrillic lettering. :))

I wonder if other GSM owners see the same thing? (Obviously, I expect Sprint and Verizon to be shown.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kwurky:
This is normal. The Play Store puts your telephone service provider in front of the model name. Because you are using a T-Mobile USA SIM, the Play Store determines this from your APN settings AFAIK.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luftrofl:
^This.

My Galaxy Nexus (from Expansys, I think it's a UK version) is labeled "T-Mobile" as well. Same thing with my Nexus One.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
I get the same on my Nexus with me using Rogers in Canada.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Mine got labeled SingTel Samsung Galaxy Nexus, pretty sure my country do not have operators that sell branded phones.

It had to do with the sim card's operator numeric thing i think.

I was using Market Enabler the other day, pretty sure i did not have data enabled and Play Store labled my gnex as a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
It just reads your carrier, and reads your device. Then puts them together...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smokeey:
Its cause of your SIM reporting the info to Google when you linked your account to that phone/number.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zAlbee:
Interesting. It does seem a bit intrusive on Google's part to sniff my SIM like that, but I guess I'm OK with it. :-P thanks all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patruns:
If you also had another Nexus with AT&T you would be thanking Google for doing that so that you knew which device you were about to download an app to. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
There are carrier-specific apps and things that they need to know your carrier info for. Such as when you are in the Play Store and click on "Music" you get a "Live Exclusive T-Mobile Free Songs" button.

And believe me, Google is doing a lot of stuff more intrusive than knowing what carrier you're on... I'm surprised you ever thought that Google wouldn't know your carrier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bozzykid:
As was stated, it is used by the Play Store to determine what apps/features are available to you and it is also used for enabling carrier billing.
