This was John V or something. :p

Well,they are a really good site in fact.They may not have all the stuff Anandtech does,nor do they publish everything new instantly like SlashGear,Engagdet etc,but they do it all and do it well(Does that sound somehow...? :p ).I prefer them for my everyday mobile tech news reading.

EDIT:****,I must have my ears checked.He is Ray.John isn't the fanboy.I confused the voices and thought John was the annoying one. :p

Just Rooted Evo 3D & I have HBoot 1.50. Could I still obtain S-Off:confused::confused: If so could I get a link?:)
[HTC EVO 3D] thefsfempire:
Sorry I can't provide a link (on mobile) but head over to the dev section and you'll see a sticky called Downgrade Hboot. Doesn't matter if you have root or not and its fairly simple.

[HTC EVO 3D] marquise10:
Alright thank you.:D
[HTC EVO 3D] Mackn89:
I think using UnkownForces method of live cd is the best way to get s-off. Downgrade 1.5 to 1.4 n root with revolutionary. Takes 10-15mins and your only pressing a button and reading n following the steps after you brick your phone (on purpose).
[HTC EVO 3D] honorlost84:
Unknownforces method involves linux. It's closeones thread with the live cd you are talking about. It is super noob friendly also. The hardest part is the actual bricking of your device :)
[HTC EVO 3D] linty:
The short answer is: yes you can, BUT you have to relock your phone first with "adb oem lock". Basically, you undo the work you just did. It's one of the steps in: Downgrade HBOOT thread "(If you are HTC Unlocked, you MUST RELOCK BEFORE starting) " and HBOOT Downgrade Toolkit. The latter has more detailed instructions. Basically when you relock your phone you have to run the RUU to wipe the device and return it to a stock ROM as part of the first steps. Enjoy.
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
its "fastboot oem lock"
[HTC EVO 3D] linty:
Yeah, brain fart. Good thing I linked to the guides.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larza83:
Hi,

I am looking for a way to replace the icons of the attached lockscreen (widgetlocker) with sliders instead, so that I need to slide them of the shelf to launch the application rather then just clicking. I have thought of two potential solutions:

1. Slider (theme) for widgetlocker, with optional icon, vertical

2. Separate application supporting my target (widget)

Haven´t been able to find any of the above. Any thoughts?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Samthereptileguy:
I have a Samsung S2 Galaxy Skyrocket (SGH-I727) on the AT&T network. I set my phone into download mode, opened Odin3 v.1.85 and selected the .tar file I downloaded off this forum to root the device. Well after about 30 mins of Odin being stuck with the "<ID:0/009> SetupConnection.." prompt I figured it froze up or something. Well I restarted everything and and now my phone just goes straight into Odin mode with the error "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." I'm trying to reload the .tar and it is still doing the same thing...

I'm a complete noob at this! Will someone please help me out with really simple detailed instructions on how I can get my phone working again? I will do anything in return!!!!

Just so you know, reflashing it will work. Sometimes it takes a few tries. Just make sure repartition is not checked, only reboot. click pda and select the CWM tar. Just make sure the device is recognized in the com port before you push start.

Use odin and flash the sammobile image it will wipe everything but should fix the issue

CM9 Skyrocket
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hcyplr29:
Sometimes its as simple as rebooting your computer, open Odin as admin, select your tar under PDA, connect your phone, make sure com is lit up and flash. My windows machine gets freaky like that sometimes and just fails or sits there doing nothing. Driver issue I assume even though they are there. I've encountered that error a few times trying to flash in Odin. No worries. These guys will get you back up. Good luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Samthereptileguy:
Got it! Working on downloading the .tar file from sammobile right now.

You mentioned different versions of the OS like ICS and 4.0... Which one do I want? LOL and where do I get it? I'm assuming its different than the firmware correct?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] androidsc:
Thats a personal choice. Currently there are many different roms floating around but it depends on what you want.

Deciding on which to get is a matter of 2 simple questions for me: Do you want to be up to date, since ICS is the new hottest, thing (sexier UI IMO, some app issues, but overall feel wise. it makes the phone feel so much better, and fits the sleek profile, but lets not have me go on about aesthetics lol.

Or do you want functionatilty, extra options, overclocking (changing clock speeds) and things like that, currently we can only do that on 2.3.5/6 (Gingerbread, also known as GB)

I personally like ICS. Sometimes the Skyrocket just has to be sexy than the powerhouse e-beast that it is. That will happen whenever the Official ICS comes out
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
You don't need the sammobile tar unless you're returning to stock. If you wanna just be stock rooted, flash CWM in odin. Make a nandroid backup. Then put the superuser zip on the sd card and flash it in CWM.

If you wanna run a custom rom from our dev section, just flash CWM, make a backup and then flash the rom which will already be rooted
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] androidsc:
I just wanted to make sure that I got him back on the upgrade path to ics if he wants and the tar file saved me so I can verify it personally. Don't want to trip his counter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Yeah I know the sammobile tar works, I found it a while ago and have been telling people to use it.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] NanoSurfer:
Friend if you installed this on a Galaxy Y Pro then you have certainly "soft" bricked your phone. You will need to reinstall your stock firmware to get it working again. Galaxy Y and Galaxy Y Pro are two completely different phones!!

I had the same one day before you and starting odin in admin mode solved this problem for me and also tried another usb port.

and when you don't mean a pro but just our device then wipe data and cache and reboot system ;)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] deathnotice01:
actually if you have a custom ROM like creeds NEVER UPDATE SOFTWARE, cuz it will softbrick the phone due to the fact that the files are modified from the official firmware, doing so will cause either bootloops or splash stuck,

only solution would be to reflash via odin
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] rik452:
