Is it at all possible that you may have used the Nexus AIO tool to try to unlock the bootloader? i say this because this section and theres have been easy to mistake if you just CTRL + F to find the phone. I found myself in the wrong forum mistakenly :| also maybe not having the ADB version different but having a different set of tools might have something. Maybe (no offense ) you mistakenly using the wrong tool might have been a godsend!!!

can you provide us with a logcat and a whole onslaught of information about what software you used and what versions they are.

Further more, i dont know if you do this but i tend to use super tool packages as a workaround from having to download the sdk and all that since the tools are included in there. if so could you send me a list of the files you added to the folders and what they are??

Thank you so much in advance

This is very interesting indeed Watson...

check the tools used. he might be right. could be that the regular android sdk platform tools wont get it s-off. another set might.

but could it be that HTC-Dev did something with the pin number so it would turn s-off after the spamming of s-off request from the scene?

maybe they did it for the first time so we would stop complaining.

and they did not want advertise that on their site?

just guessing here

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Kickasskev:
Take a close look, the only letters that would need editing would be the n on the end of on, change tha to ff, in my opinion the ff looks a little bolder than the other letters, also while looking at the picture let you screen dull down and it stands out even more.

Just my opinion

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlwaysDroid:
Hey guys, I have a Samsung galaxy gio using Cyanogenmod 9. And I must say it is quite snappy compared to gingerbread. I love the phone to death, but its jut not a really great phone. It is limited by ram, poor CPU and the screen size is just to small for my liking.

But today my friend asked me if I wanted to but his Xperia arc. He has a gold iPhone now. The kid goes through phones like crazy, so it probably didn't get used alot, so I'm sure it is in good shape.

He asked for 250, but I think I could get it for 200 - 225, but first I want to know:

1. Is it easy to root, mod, get CWM, flash roms, kernels etc. Unlocked boot loader?

2. Is that a reasonable price?

3. Is it a good phone with decent hardware? Like CPU speed ram, multitasking ability etc.

4. Is there a Cyanogenmod 9 available for it that gives me a ICS Xperience? (<--- I'm so punny lol)

Thanks guys :].

don't be afraid to answer if you don't know all the answers !
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pancakes_Gio:
Man! Keep your gio!! No need for the arc, the gio has alot roms to flash and mods to do!

But in the end the choice is yours:)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlwaysDroid:
That is true, is is very easy to mod. I just find the screen a bit small, that's the part I like least about it. Such a difficult decision!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pancakes_Gio:
For me, the screen size is pretty good, no need for bigger:)

¡¡¡SAY HALLO TO MY LITTTLE FRIEND!!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
It's your choice. I got my Arc last year in preference to an sgsII mainly due to it's appearance/size, though performance wise(still) there's not really that much between them. There's a fair amount of dev work, though you should check the Arc threads to understand what's involved due to the bootloader.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Keenwise:
It depends if you want to get it or not. All i can say is the arc will definitely outperform the gio at regular tasks, but you sacrifice the modding and the small easy to fit phone. Yet your friend seems to be selling it at a pretty good price so its your choice :p

Use a file explorer of your choice,navigate to system/app,scroll down until you get to HTCCamera,select and hold until you get an option prompt,select copy,navigate to your sd card and paste it somewhere on there,then connect to your computer and drag it onto your desktop,your golden.Do the opposite to install and install it of course,then reboot into recovery and wipe cache and delvik,then your golden.Now if you just want to extract the rom and push it to your current rom,then you just extract the rom,go to system/app and copy,then paste it on your sd card and do the second half of my tutorial to install it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xNotta:
To extract:

Download the .zip

Open it and navigate to /system/app

Right click and copy HTCCamera.apk.

Push it to /system/app/HTCCamera.apk and change permissions to rw- r-- r--

Reboot and it should be installed.

That's the sense 3.0 Camera and will only work with HTC Sense 2.0+.

It will FC if you install it on a sense 1.0 ROM.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danielvago:
I'm on stock 4.0.2 GSM and I get these random reboots about once a day it seems.

I mostly get them when I'm doing something actively, but I've also gotten them when it's just in my pocket.

I read about this being a problem before, but has it really not been fixed yet? Any of you guys having a similar problem?

And for you on 4.0.4, has it been fixed with that version?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tneRRot:
I had the same issue on 4.0.1. 4.0.4 fixed the problem for me.

Do yourself a favor and ditch jd.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] skyrockets:
I've heard mixed things about JD. Some people like it, others say it doesn't work.

On GB, I was getting 2.0-2.2x.

On ICS, I only use it for the schedules right now, I may test it out to see if it helps or not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
It makes a smartphone dumb.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
Only if you set it to make it dumb. JD doesn't block of my functionality just sorts some stuff like turning off wifi if there's no network around and check for an open network every now and then. Claims to be around X2.02 on mhx superlite 5.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
You can't be bothered to use the quick toggle and push a button to shut off wifi when you leave home or work? Apps like that just prevent a smartphone from being a smartphone. That's cool if you wanna use it, but shutting off radios and preventing data is sort of lame on a smartphone. There are other ways of saving power and still having a working smartphone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] skyrockets:
How so?

I agree. I had it keep wifi enabled when connected all the time, turn data off during the work day and only check it every hour (I'm on a PC, I can get email instantly). I had it turn off data/wifi when I was playing a game. I had it turn wifi off when I left home and re-turn on wifi when I got home (location based). And I used the brightness feature (this was pretty poor...).

I still use it for schedule (I have it turn off sound and data/wifi at night) on ICS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
My data is always on regardless it just makes sure my phone wont waste power by searching for wifi when there is none, also if I get to a place with good wifi and I know its there I'll use the quick toggle.

And jd is also useful in case I forget the bluetooth on it will turn it off after 5 minutes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
These are things you can do without jd, except the forgetting bt thing. JD requires power to run, so consider that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
I've found that I get as good or better battery life by simply enabling System Power Saving then with JD. Your mileage may vary.

* edit *

JD showed about 1.7 on my device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Datron:
I'm running seanz GB Sky ICS and have always used JD. With or without JD, my battery blows. I wouldn't dare leave home without a charger. I've found that JD definitely helps, mostly for reasons previously mentioned in this thread. However, the JD ratios seem inflated and highly volatile. I never trust them. I know JD helps me a little bit but I never know exactly how much.

Based on feedback from seanz 4.0 rom, I doubt I'll need JD once I flash it. I just need some damn free time to sit down, get smart, do the downloads, and flash my way to freedom haha. Hopefully I'll make it happen tomorrow night.

Overall though, I am a fan of JD Pro.

***Edit***

Shame on me for not answering the op questions. Normally my ratio is somewhere between 1.7 and 2.0. I've noticed that if I run jd for 4-5 days then the ratio slowly goes down to 1.25 which is odd. Then, if I disable it for 18-24 hours, my jd ratio for the next few days is insane: 2.5 to 2.9.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Simple kernel tweaks can save far more juice, and doesn't consume power like JD does by running in the background.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
The issue is there is still no kernel source for ics anyway.

I'm pleased with my battery so I got no reason to turn of JD and check how it's effecting it, I'm not that much of a heavy user.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
That's because it's a leak with no source. I got off the ics bandwagon and went back to stability. If you're not a heavy user why do you need JD? I'm just trying to help you make your phone better, if you wanna use it, that's fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
this weekend I should have similar phone pattern, I'll check it with or without and let you know. Tho I'll be home only so I guess it will only show how much jd is draining instead of helping but that's also something.

Also im using ICS due to the correct hebrew alignment which is really annoying in GB.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
You can uc on ics.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
Already running at 1.18
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Three333:
I'm getting 2.26 with custom settings on Sky ICS 4.2D-10.

In my view, there are two important factors in JD's usefulness: (1) Like the app itself says, it is most effective when you're not using the phone. If you're a heavy user, you're not likely to see an improvement, because most of what it does relates to turning radios on/off. (2) Whether or not you're good at micromanaging settings. If you reliably remember to turn off BT, or to turn off syncing when you're asleep, etc. then it may not be of value. Depending on where you are on those two points, it may be great, it may be more of a drain than it saves.

With JD and with my phone largely sitting on the desk, I can get out past three days on a charge. JD is allowing sync to occur every 30 mins during the day and not at all at night. I'm honestly not sure how easily I can set my phone up to do roughly the same without JD (although I'm trying to work on that).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] promiseofcake:
1.8 - 2.2 on ICS Stock Deodexed. I don't need an alert for email every second I get one, keeps me unfocused at work. When I unlock the screen I get them anyway, so JD is perfect for me. My battery goes 32 hours on moderate use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Ozark_8125:
OK we get your point... but some of us have limited data plans and I find it very frustrating when the phone goes off and self-initiates a 64mb transfer of what-I-don't-know - out of my 200mb plan. I don't need a phone that smart. ATT isn't good about providing any details what-so-ever about that data usage so am looking for other means to control power and radio usage and to actually get through the whole day without having to charge twice in the same day and without having to remember to help my smartphone to be smart.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
A smartphone with 200mb of data is pretty much worthless. I don't know why you have to charge twice a day, that's ridiculous. But if JD is the only way for you, so be it.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] smgill:
Very strange thing happening with my Razr. I all of a sudden noticed a number of apps force closing, including motorola and google processes. I have the Verizon CDMA Razr .181, rooted, su, busybox, etc. I have bootstrap installed but never use it, however notice that it is always granted SU permission on boot.

Anyways, when I decided to reboot my phone it booted back up but I started getting calendar alerts from Sunday 5/6 that I had already dismissed, and my gmail was only synced through about 4pm on 5/6, though my system clock and date show correctly the present. What I also noticed is any app I unstainall or setting I change (ie, debug in settings), once I reboot my Razr reverts to the 5/6 setup.

I thought I'd get into Boostrap (which I can't recall ever needing to in the past) so I click "BootStrap Recovery".. I get the "Success!" box, then click "Reboot Recovery". Only problem is it never goes into recovery, but just reboots into the 5/6 state.

I tried to reload the Verizon OTA via RSD Lite, but it always fails on 3/28 with an mbmloader.bin restriction. I tried using Motofail and Matt's Razr Utility to revert back to previous builds, but I get an read-only error on just about all the chmods.

Anyone else seen this or have any suggestions? At this point I'm looking to go back to stock so I can start fresh.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] joshw0000:
Are you sure you're using the 181 sbf?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] joshw0000:
One trick you might try to get to recovery is reboot, then manually power off before it completely boots (I think vol down and power does that). Next boot should be CWM. I haven't needed to use that method since I had a Bionic but the option shouldn't have changed. Essentially if bootstrap sees that you didn't boot successfully it'll go to recovery.

May want to make sure you have root (test a root app). Try updating su binary in Super User.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] smgill:
Yes, I'm positive it is 181. thanks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] smgill:
I tried your initial method, but it didn't work.. just boots me to my homescreen as usual. It's strange, I can't seem to load or get to any other recovery other than stock. I even tried to reinstall boostrap. I also tried safestrap. Nothing.

I'm getting the "granted super user permission" popups when certain apps such as JuiceDefender, VOODO keeper, SQL Lite, ec. I'm also able to go into SU and activate and delete SU permissions.. then it prompts me again when I open apps, so I'm assuming I have root. I thought though maybe it was a "soft" root or something, so I tried to root it with DroidRazr Utility Matt's app it can't write to certain files. Strange.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] joshw0000:
Have you made any modifications that could have caused the issues? I've been reading online trying to find the other tricks I used to use for manual bootsrap with no luck. There's a file that is deleted when you reboot telling bootstrap it's ok on your next reboot. If you can figure out that file and reinsert it with Root Explorer, it should go to recovery (just a blank file).

Also research the hack that forces CWM on every reboot. Again, sorry for not having more info, never had to use it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] smgill:
Will do!. Don't be sorry, this is something new to try and anything new is helpful! Let me know if you think of anything else and I'll keep you posted.

p.s. I find it weird though that no matter how I modify my settings / apps / etc while booted, once I reboot it reverts back to ~Sunday afternoon. Very weird.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] joshw0000:
Just throwing more out...have you tried factory reset (in settings and in factory recovery)?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] smgill:
Yes, I've tried factory reset but it boots me back the same way... As if it's Sunday afternoon 5/6. And I'm trying to remember if there was anything that happened or I installed then. The only thing that comes to mind is that my phone was unresponsive for about 30 minutes, though seemed to be still on as my green LED was flashing as if I had notifications but I couldn't get the screen to come up. I then had to force power down (power + vol down).

I've also tried wiping data / cache in stock recovery, but doesn't do anything.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] smgill:
Im still stuck. Anyone else have any thoughts? Im to the point where I may just buy a new device, full retail, if needed...but that would set me back quite a bit. As an alternative, im happy to make a donation for anyone who can get my Razr back to a normal state.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] joshw0000:
Aside from sbf'ing I don't know what else to suggest. When you sbf'ed, you had:

Good charge

Oem cord plugged to the BACK of the computer (not the front)

Moto Drivers

Latest RSD Lite

What OS are you using (XP, 7, Linux)? 32 or 64 bit?

Have you tried on another computer? That could be your problem.

If all else fails, you can send it to me (just cover shipping both ways). I kinda enjoy tring to fix phones (software issues).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] smgill:
Using Windows 7 64 bit.

Good charge

Plugged into side (laptop)
