[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zokiii:
Device has been rooted (took a while lol). Now looks a bit complicated to flash it back. Just before doing that shall I try this other option I researched on the forum

【DoubleX】GalaxyNexus PermUnlock Simlock apk-support4.04

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1548210

I see this is for Nexus. But is there one for Nexus S ? If not i'l try to flash back.

Thanks
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billchen0014:
NO! DO NOT TRY THIS! THIS IS FOR GALAXY NEXUS, i9250, NOT NEXUS S i9023!!! AND it doesn't unblock your device, it only allows the phone to be used on other tele-carriers, if the handset is locked to one network. in your case, it is different. so i think you'd better just flash a stock gingerbread rom and see what happens :)

UPDATE: Try this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1595525
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zokiii:
I have read there that flashing a stock rom could remove or change the IMEI. Is that what would make my phone work? changing IMEI ?

After I flash back to an earlier version will I be able to update back to Ice cream ? :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zokiii:
Also before I flash back how do I back up IMEI (if I have to do that ?)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkhShadow:
Using a terminal with root

cat /dev/block/mtdblock6 >> /mnt/sdcard/efs.img

Do the reverse to restore it

Try flashing your phone back to stock GB first; we'll worry about updating later.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zokiii:
I'm using this guide to flash back to an earlier version. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1572307

But im stack at the very first step:

1) copy the ecxtracted files (two times with 7zip) on android-sdk/platform-tools/ (this is important, if you dont unzip it, dont complain about "radio couldnt be loaded")

I downloaded the i9023 file and see no 7zip files after I unzip it. I'm guessing I don't need to use the how to root nexus s because its already rooted.

Also at 4, will I have to follow A or B ? I not sure that Custom and Stock ROMs are ?

If I remember rightly changing the imei is illegal in the UK and I'm pretty sure it applies to the US
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PG101:
Changing IMEI is completely illegal.. most likely the person who lost the phone, reported it.

And we dont encourage such threads at XDA.

Guys I just read from a reliable website (cbsmarketwatch.com) that sprint was only releasing the EVO LTE to certain markets. Most likely markets where LTE will be deployed first. The article was then pulled quickly.

I have no reason to lie, I saw the article.

Stay tune!!!!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
Lack of phones? :confused:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cordy:
Yeah it's safe to assume that they read into it and took out of it what they wanted. Yes Sprint announced early opening for stores across the U.S. and I haven't cross referenced them with the locations that are getting LTE but I'm sure they probably match up. But that's as far as it goes, it's no conspiracy to release the phone in only certain markets. Those are just the locations that are doing early openings. Their larger stores. They even state to check with your local store to see if they are doing early openings in which I assume most will. They are expecting this to be as huge as the Original Evo launch so they are just making tha fare that goes along with such big launches. Both the Viper and Galaxy Nexus launched in all markets not just markets that were getting LTE first. So the Evo 4G LTE will be no different. Sprint knows people will buy the thing even if they aren't expected to get LTE anytime soon.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BrianBaker:
Lost all credibility when the article says in the 1st paragraph that Sprint stores in these locations will be selling the phone at 8am THURSDAY May 18,2012...

Why in the Hell would I trust a site about a release date when they don't even know that Thursday is the 17th.

Then there is a huge fail that many people deserve to be fired over.

I will raise bloody hell if they don't ship my pre-ordered phone to me after confirmation because of my market.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cordy:
please see my previous post. Do not worry. This is not the case. Simply put if this were such a thing, you wouldn't be able to place the order for the phone to begin with. Let's not forget that when you go to Sprint's online store one of the things they require is your zip code. Anways don't worry you'll get your phone soon. Also please see Sprint's Website for more information that refutes that link. They simply took the news release and put their own spin on it. That is how you get clicks afterall.

I still think a lot of these threads that are forming could've just added information to similar threads.

Why? Is Mashable.com not reputable?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] purock:
That's what my thoughts were. Early launch? Or perhaps, 'the featured launch cities', which would mean jack. Something just doesn't seem right with that article.

Plus they said "Sprint Announced". To who? To just that website? How come we haven't seen any other reports.

Too many question marks, not enough meat.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cordy:
They are simply quoting out of context. The quote is the truth. Those are Sprint's larger markets and larger stores so it is beneficial for Sprint and the customers to open the stores early not just launch in those markets. It's just the context is incorrect.

"Sprint’s rollout of its high-speed LTE network may certainly be a factor, since the phone needs LTE for customers to enjoy its full benefits." <- you can clearly tell based on the wording that is pure speculation

Your one of THOSE people arent you. It wouldnt be best buys problem if sprint or HTC got delayed.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bohiti:
Yeah, I'm inclined to not believe this. It would be Sprint saying "Thank you for the $200. Sorry your area never got WiMax. Here's an extra kick in the nuts for good measure."
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AngelofChaos:
That I am...and worse ;). If I place a down payment for a preorder and am given a promised date of availability at launch, you had better damn sure deliver. Otherwise, I bring the rain (so to speak)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
Dude If Best Buys gives you your money back, all you going to do walk out unhappy.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AngelofChaos:
no I'm pretty sure they will be losing quite a few customers if they don't deliver come Friday as there were a large number of preorders in store. Whats the point if they're going to announce a nationwide preorder and then deny every market except for a few select cities.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Artanis:
I agree. It doesnt make sense that they would charge the pre order and not deliver until the network is ready. To note the obvious...

they probably had the phones in warehouse for a month waited till preorder registration was big enough to actually shipped then opened up the order page.

Considering most of us were on the list for their first wimax device, bought and waited for 4G, i dont think LTE availability is the decision making question.

Anyone watching AND/OR waiting for the launch of the E4GLE knows LTE wont be available everywhere for a while. We want the hardware. HTC has not disappointed me yet. and i have been loyal since UTStarcom days. I know this next handset will last me another 2-3 years.

sup xda!?

I was trying to ask for this in the General Thread for CM9 but only found trouble.. :D

After looking through the thread for over an hour, I still couldn't find a comprehensive guide on how to install CM9 on my device..

I know that you need PC-Odin for it, you need gapps and of course the zip of the ROM, but I just can't figure out what to flash, what Kernel to flash and how to..

As I saw many people asking about this, I think it would be greatly appreciated if one of you pros could spare the -minutes- it takes to give us noobs :D some info..

I am currently on the latest Stunner build and on the LP6-Kernel..

thanks for any help! peace

EDIT:

ok, copperdawgnc sent me to this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424997

and told me:

"This will show you how to use PC ODIN & has GB roms to download"

so it seems that we need to use PC-Odin, as expected, and install a GB Rom first..

I know how to use Odin a bit but I still don't know what to install..

what Kernel, which ROM, any ROM? and do I really have to flash an unrooted stock and re-root..? why is that necessary? :D

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrKancho:
thanks!

so, it should go like this:

1 get ODEX PRE ROOTED N7000XXLC1 (Europe) or ODEX PRE ROOTED N7000DXLC2 (Malaysia)

2 install via PC-Odin

2.1 get PIT file and choose the 3 (?) files mentioned in the screenshot

3 after it's done: download Mobile ODIN

2. download CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LC1-v5.3-CWM5.zip

3. load CF-Root kernel using Mobile Odin

4. get back into recovery

5. wipe data

6. install cm9 and gapps

7. wipe

8. done?

:D seriously?

wouldn't it work if we only install the CF-Root-Kernel LC1 (?) and flash CM9 from there through Odin?

LC1 or some other Kernel?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] armoredraven:
So I've been using my Verizon RAZR for 2 or 3 months with absolutely no issue.

Just today, however, I unlocked my phone and went into my app drawer (using GO Launcher by the way). The drawer opened, but once it did, the screen froze and the frozen image lost considerable quality (became grainy and distorted). So after that I just locked the screen and let it sit for a while. When I tried a screen unlock the phone would respond normally, except the screen would not turn on. I was able to unlock the phone and turn it off even without a display just by guessing.

So I let it sit for a while again and then tried turning it on. When the Dual Core Motorola logo came up, it was also grainy (could definitely read it normally, just the image was grainy kind of like a gif is because of color limitations). So after that, it made the droid noise, but the screen never responded beyond that. So I blind shut off the phone again and this time I plugged it into the charger to see if I got an image. This time I get the Motorola Dual Core logo like normal, but after that, the battery image is completely distorted with white fuzz. I tried turning it on one more time, but this time it just got stuck on a screen of white grainy fuzz. I can't do anything else since I can't do a battery pull on this phone, so I'm kinda stuck waiting for the battery to die by itself on this white screen before anything else.

I know I'll probably have to resort to using the Motorola Warranty, but do you guys have any suggestions at the moment? Thanks!

I have a quick question to everyone who has the TF300T and Linux. Have you been able to plug in the tablet directly in Linux (Ubuntu)and open the filesystem to transfer files? it seems that in windows I need to have that Asus Sync program, but i would rather not use a program. I would imagine it would be a plug and play situation.

I would appreciate to read how to go around that.

Thank you in advance.

I use Windows 7 Enterprise at home and it works for me

I don't have a issue with this at home.

Once I plug it in, a USB menu opens and verifies that it found a new device.

The issue you may be having is with in Vista itself.

I'm using Windows 7 Enterprise, and I can view all the files on my Asus, I don't even have Root yet. That whole .26 thing!

I just fired up a Ubuntu system at work to try to get around the issues with ADB on a Windows 7 64 bit system, so I can try to downgrade it to .17, root, load root keeper, then try the OTA update to .26. Have not quite got there yet though.

So far this has all been a complete pain on Windows, the ADB software comes to a screeching halt do to a Java issue, that no one can see to correct on my O.S.

Would be nice if some one just put out a 1 click Root app like I had on my DrodX!

i think i could depend on the drivers.

but dont expect an USB drive to appear as an HD or removable device, as it is MTP, you have to access the files via the DEVICE ICON that appears on the computer folder.

I mostly followed the following site and changed some of the names he gave his phone into TF300.

(being a new user I am not able to post url links and am not able to post in de development site yet...damn)

Do a google search on: omg ubuntu android usb drive

After having done that, all it takes to have it seen as a drive is enter <android-connect> into a terminal. (and <android-disconnect> to shut off cleanly).

It's only seeing the sdcard, not / (hoped for an easy root access :-)).

How to get Email description in notification bar instead of generic "1 unread message

When I receive an email with the gmail app, there is a description of the email i.e. subject line shows up in notification bar. With the stock email app there is just a generic "1 unread email" that shows up.. Ive looked at all the settings and searched.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NextNexus:
Unfortunately this isn't an option on the stock email app. It's possible that ROMS will allow you to do this in the future but you need an unlocked bootloader in order to do that. :rolleyes:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nimski62:
As an iPhone user for the past 4 years, I just don't see the Android hype. Why can't personalize the phone the way we want.. it's an ANDROID for Pete's sake. So far, my push email has been delayed, the phone heats up for no reason and drains battery, and there are no Google voice missed call notifications for android, all things that I could do and/or worked perfect on my iPhone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bothfly:
Guys, have I got a great app for you.

Notifier Pro in the Play Store, sorry to lazy to link it to you.

But there is a free version and it does the notifications way better and somewhat iPhone like.

It has made a big dif for me coming from the iPhone 4S
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] cloudraker:
If you dont like android im fairly sure nobody forced you into it. If you truly think the iphone is better, then you can easily switch back. BUT, if you really want a different experience than every other iphone user on the planet, you wont get it. Give these developers a little time and an unlocked bootloader and you can make your phone YOURS. Want something tweaked in the notification bar, chances are someone here can do it. Concerned about battery drains, chances are they will get fixed.

Androids not perfect, but luckily we have all these amazing people to make it as close as it gets. The way i see it, you can either have your phone be Apple's experience, OR you can have it be a personal experience, the way you want it.

Trying the One X too - from a 4S

Nimski62, I get what you are saying - there are aspects of the Android OS that have been surpassed such as the email notifications you are describing. And I can relate - I've have every iPhone (all were my daily drivers) and have been trying out different android models to see what the hype really is about. (AT&T- Inspire, Atrix, Atrix 2, SGS 2 & VZN - TBolt, Razr, Rezound, DINC2) and now the One X.

Different doesn't always mean worse. For me, I'd rather see a single notification saying there are 4 unread emails, instead of a mini preview entry for each one.

But the Google Voice notifications for missed calls IS REALLY NICE - especially if you are out of a service area, but have a WIFI connection - those notifications still come through.

For me, I keep trying to find a handset that is at least as good speed, battery, and feature-set as the latest iPhone. With each phone, I get a chance to re-evaluate what I think is important for what I want in a phone. For now, I think that MAY be the One X but the BIGGEST factor is getting over the idea of what you are used to using. If you have a 4S, then getting over the one-handed ease of use (along with the instant functionality of Siri [when she works]) is rather difficult. There aren't many droids that are butter smooth and have near instant UI responsiveness as the 4S. Photostream and iMessage rocks

But I love Swype, SwiftKey X, and the faster and more accurate google voice to text (IMHO) as well as the built in navigation. I love the bigger screen and hate it at the same time each time I pull it out of my back pocket. I love the part that you can add software to almost any part of the phone - launcher, dialer, lock screen, file and video viewers, etc. Thats what keeps me coming back to android.

The issue I have now is that I've been trying to find out myself about why the Google Voice missed call notifications are not coming through all the time on my 1X - but yet they works faster on my 4S. go figure. Its still new and updates are coming - I'm sure and I still have about 24 days to go before I have to commit.

Since I added a line to my account, I'll still keep the 4S as a backup on the other number. But so far, Im really impressed.
