[LG Optimus 3D] sak500:
You are missing the hardware issues point. Their super flagship phone costing a lot w/o contract has build issues from day one. Some people have returned more than 6 times their phones. Also with doing CWM they tend to lose warranty even though earlier HTC had mentioned they will support dev community.

NOw how many threads we have of hardware issues on O3D? Also i've installed tons of ROMs in last 7~8 months and i did not face any hardware issue.

HTC phone gets overheated from using even 2d games while it's charging on htc provided wall charger and if they use usb the phone does'nt charge but starts losing juice when i'ts being used. So with no way to replace battery or external SD card to save ur data if you screw up your phone u need to send it for replacement and possibility of losing ur data..

Damn i' wouldn't want to be in their shoes at the moment and hope siii is of much better quality.
[LG Optimus 3D] botson71:
There is no question that the hardware side of the phone is top notch. CPU, GPU, screen and camera are still some of the best. Also the plastics and the designs screams "quality" and not "cheap" like other, more expensive, phones.

However, the major drawback is the software. With the half-baked Froyo and GB, there are frequent lags, freezes and the general feeling is more like having a single core and not a top notch double core phone. Not to mention the ghost-calls issue which took LG seven months to fix (?).
[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
Can someone recommend me a Linux distro of their choice? I'm going to start learning how to compile, and develop kernels. I already can allot the time to doing so, and I want to do so.

I have some in mind, but I want to know what you men, and women recommend.
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
I'd use Ubuntu. You can use it for compiling but also for daily normal things too so having to dual-boot isn't an issue.

Also, your avatar is the best I've seen. Hands down. No contest.
[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
Thanks for taking your time to respond, and yes, my avatar is awesome. :P
[HTC EVO 3D] mike.r.olson:
I am fairly proficient on the Windows side and also a total n00b at Linux, however since I have installed Ubuntu 12.04 x64 on one of my laptops, I am actually really beginning to enjoy it as a primary OS. Long story short, my vote goes to Ubuntu.
[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
Thanks as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
Ubuntu definitely. It is definitely the distro for people wanting to try out Linux.
[HTC EVO 3D] mike.r.olson:
There is also the ability to use VirtualBox to have a virtualized install of Windows as a way to have a "familiar environment" to work in. That's what I've done.
[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
Thank you.

And you too, again!
[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
So from what I'm seeing, Ubuntu is the way to go. 11.04 would be the preferred version? My friend KQuicksall recommended that as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] mike.r.olson:
12.04 is solid on my end.
[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
Well, if that's the case. I see no harm in running that. I do appreciate those for taking their time to respond to this thread. For that, I say thanks. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] mike.r.olson:
No problem. Good luck!
[HTC EVO 3D] notsointeresting:
Ubuntu is good for users wanting to try out Linux.. But my vote goes to LinuxMint :D
[HTC EVO 3D] unCoRrUpTeD:
I switched to Ubuntu 2 years ago and haven't looked back. My kids and wife still use Windows, but my laptop and desktop both have Ubuntu installed. After 6 months I wiped windows from both. And remember google is your best friend.

My kindle fire is stuck at FIREFIREFIRE bootloader ( the screen which has a kindle fire logo and an android logo above it)....

My conditions are like this:

Kindle fire - ROOTED

ROM - Kindle Fire Stock Rom

TWRP - Installed

FIREFIREFIRE - Installed

And i could'nt find 'kindle fire' in my windows device manager when i plugged my kindle on my pc...

Help will be appreciated...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
not finding ' kindle ' , or 'android device' on my windows 7 device manager...so how shud i get rid of it? has anybody experienced it?

Long press on the Fire power button does nothing - doesn't launch TWRP in recovery mode. Entering commands in a Command window from my laptop isn't getting through to my Fire. And, as I mention above, the Kindle Fire device is not available on my Device Manager
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
After reading the guide potestasx offered you, do you you understand why your device is stuck at the boot screen?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
I think i've been stuck at boot loader due to lack of battery....

I fully charged it after that...

but its still stuck...

Cant find 'kindle' or "Kindle' on my Device manager...

So dont know whether i on Fastboot mode or Normal mode...

I assume that i m on fastboot mode...

i tried installing drivers from 'install_drivers' in 'kindle fire utiltity'...

but none changed...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Known Tricks

If you end up stuck at the yellow triangle, in KF Utility select Boot Normal, wait for it to say <waiting for device> and then press and hold the power button 20 seconds until the fire turns off, then when its off turn it back on. This sometimes happens, I have yet to find a clean solution If you end up stuck with a yellow triangle, do not EVER unplug it. Leave it plugged in. Check the windows drivers to make sure it isnt showing as "kindle" again. Fastboot is different and can cause this.

Please note: If your device can't be seen in fastboot mode, please make sure to install the drivers packaged with this, as it will show up afterwards. You can use the install_drivers.bat with the device plugged in for this.

Copied from the instructions for the kindle fire utility
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Not quite. First of all, you're in the wrong bootmode. You just need to change it back to normal and you'll be just fine. The guide posted earlier has information on the different bootmodes, how they work, and eventually how to change them. From your description it should be pretty easy to fix.

You also need to pay attention to the second post of that thread as it will help you verify that your drivers are in order. The third post will give you the necessary tools to fix your problem and any others that may arise.

I will tell you this, after you've changed your bootmode it would be a good idea to reinstall TWRP and then use TWRP to install FFF1.4
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
Thanx a lot Thepooch...My kindle fire is working now....

thanx.... I m thinking of installing FIREFIREFIRE v.1.4...It has fixed charging mode and other..

Ok here is the summary of what happened with me...

i was using Kindle fire 2 days ago on low battery, and it suddenly rebooted and got stuck at the bootloader [FFF having kindle fire and android above it].I dont know how..

So i read some threads about it here..

Read the Whole '[GUIDE] Kindle Fire For Beginners'...

And then came on this thread...

i flashed the boot.img with the help of some members over here..

I kept my kindle fire on charging by AC charger,but it still got stucked on the bootloader...

So i flashed bootloader FFFv.1.4 on my Kindle from my pc....

It got installed..But nothing changed ..

It is now stuck at new FFF bootloader...

And when i change the boot menu to Normal boot..

It starts and works and then reboots again..

So i m still stucked...

badly need help
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] potestasx:
Are you able to boot to recovery? If so, you might try running a backup and then load a custom rom just to test normal boot. I've had bootmode issues twice with the stock rom (6.3 & 6.3.1).

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
no i cant boot to recovery :(
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
How are you trying to get to recovery?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
By using FFFv1.4a....
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] potestasx:
Run fastboot 5001 (full command in the guide thread).

If it says waiting on device, hold the power button until it shuts off and then power it back on. That should alow you to get into recovery.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
ok let me try it..
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
Btw i m using stock version 6.3...

I tried updating it by booting it on normal mode

and going in settings but it shuts down as soon as i press 'update'
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] potestasx:
Yep, that'll do it. The stock roms were not built to update with root/recovery installed. I learned that the hard way, too.

I would have rather you told be when I see the fff bootoader I pressed the power button a couple or a few times till recovery was highlighted when it looks like --recovery-- stop pushing the button let it boot.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] potestasx:
samrinks7, to help everyone out here, when you mention "change the boot menu", do you mean in KFU or in FFF? If you meant KFU, please try selecting recovery on the FFF screen instead.

Sorry if I misinterpreted that.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
i tried recovery in FFF by pressing the power button a coiple of times and then by letting it boot...

but it doesnt go to TWRP...instead it gets stuck...

i hope u understand this time...sorry for last time
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
i installed FFFv1.4 by giving the command

'fastboot flash bootloader \path\to\u-boot.bin'
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Then you need to use fastboot to install recovery.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
i m at fastboot ..now can u help me further...

btw i m not having backup coz i was using stock rom only..

but i m using stock rom v6.3 ...so i ve the update of 6.3.1 on my pc...

so what to do next?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
When you updated your device, it rewrote your recovery and bootloader partitions with stock versions. You have FFF (bootloader) installed and now you need to install recovery.

If you're using TWRP 2.1 the code for it is:

fastboot flash recovery /path/to/recovery.img

From there you can install a rooted version of the stock Kindle Fire UI
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
i did the same u told me thesoupmagnet....now it went to TWRP...and automatically rebooted ...now it got stuck at original kindle fire logo bootscreen ....and this time FFF was not loaded...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
That's very bizarre. Are you able to flash FFF again? If so, don't try to boot normally until you've flashed a rom.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrinks7:
FFF is not working...

But i booted it Normally by using KFU...

Now its working...

It hasnt rebooted since an hour...

But i dont know where FFF gone...

So i m thinking of Rooting it again...

Rooting again will be rite i guess...

What do u think?

and Thanks a lot btw..
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Since you have normal access to your system, download the .zip version of FFF1.4 and flash it in recovery. Then move on to installing Superuser.apk and "su".
[HTC EVO 3D] husharon:
Hi

Did anyone know when htc going to release an official version to evo 3d gsm?
[HTC EVO 3D] ace9988:
they won't be....all current devices from the one series onwards are sense 4.0 while all older models will b 3.6.

it's because of something called imagesense in the new line up that is critical to sense 4.0
[HTC EVO 3D] husharon:
But i like my evo & dont want to upgrade him... they r such a b....
[HTC EVO 3D] jurrasstoil:
If (i choose if instead of when on purpose) they release all the sources and stuff for the evo3d ics release (which should be arriving sometime in june iirc) at some point, then there should be fully working sense 4.0 ports possible - or thats what i think i read on here in one of the many ics threads.
[HTC EVO 3D] nobisoreal:
The guy newt has a 4.0 rom over in the dev section. I'm excited about it, probably going to jump to that on next release. 3.6 just seems like a retread or a retrofit to me. I've always hated sense, hoping 4.0 can change my mind.
[HTC EVO 3D] husharon:
I use ics 4 with sense 4 (with a lot of bugs), i belive its will change ur mind... :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Lothaen:
apparently its also because they dont want people who have an existing version of sense 3.0/3.5 to have "too many changes" from their current Sense experience

Sense 4 has many graphical differences that might freak people out perhaps...

Shame - they could have released it as an option perhaps like an RUU for devs only :p

or since there are a lot of changes for GB -> ICS anyway they should have just taken the plunge and moved all to sense 4
[HTC EVO 3D] tyler.durden:
I highly recommend switching to it sooner than later. I have always liked Sense, but Sense 4 is on another level, in my opinion. There are a few small issues on Newt's ROM, but it's still a very stable daily ROM to use. I'm sure once the Sprint ICS update comes out, those issues will disappear and there will be no reason to use anything else(unless you're a AOSP kind of person, I guess). :cool:
[HTC EVO 3D] DeathLT:
Hi All,

just wondering - when (if) we will get ICS with sense 3.6, is it really hard to develope stock ROM (ICS one) to have sense 4.0? Is it requires a lot of development and effort to make it (errors, bugs)?

Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] ace9988:
well when i used to be using the Desire HD, they began bringing in bits and mods for sense 3.0 into the 2.1 ROMS, so given time there will be a full port of sense 4.0 or mods integrated into 3.6 to make it look like sense 4.0

sense 3.6 RUU (the virgin media one) is out already so HTC will release other RUUs aswell based on country carrier etc etc. just a matter of time ;) always is
[HTC EVO 3D] NixZero:
afaik the... lets call them "drivers" of the 3d screen are dependant on the specific version of sense framework so if HTC dont release sources or a specific build it will be difficult to port to sense 4.

for the camera it should be easier.
[HTC EVO 3D] Chuck_IV:
Newt's Rom with sense 4.0 is great. The only reason I had to switch back to 3.6 is the Bluetooth issues 4.0 has right now. BT is critical for me.

When the BT issues are cleared up, I will be all over that ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] sand1303:
Feel the exact same way. Sense 4.0 looks very pleasing over 3.6

Ran newts Rom for a week and couldn't hang without the Bluetooth. I drive company truck and with cell phone laws here in school zones its a 200$ fine if u go through a school zone and get caught with the phone up to your ear.

As soon as it is cleared up I'm going back. Hoping the release of the evo lte will help tie all the loose ends on that Rom.

You'll probably want to change the ro.product.* values in your AOKP build.prop so that google sees your tablet as a "Transformer Prime TF201".

You might have to clear data and cache and resync your tablet with google again.

So far the problem of the black screen and force close (I'm a victim of this too) seems to be communal to people running Virtuous Prime-S, I'm wondering if there's something in the build prop or the tweaks applied which causes it to go into conniptions. I'll do a little poking around when I've got some spare time tomorrow and see if I can come up with any answers.

Fix for Virtuous Prime users!

You're not going to believe this.

Okay. I have the solution, machinarium the program works fine, what's going wrong is an omission in the Virtuous Prime build. This does seem like a wierd thing and it's definitely not what I'd have been looking for short of actually digging around the logcat and parsing errors.

Right! The fix!

You will need a 'root' file explorer program for this.

* http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Droid-Sans - Go here. Download the font pack marked DroidSans, it's a Zip with two files in.

* Extract them out of the Zip, and send them over to your Transformer prime's /SDCard directory.

* Open up root explorer and then take each of these two files and move them into /system/fonts/

* Once moved, set their permissions as : rw-r--r-- using the permissions function in root explorer.

* Exit, run Machinarium, enjoy a fantastic, awesome game.

For anyone running Virtuous Prime-S, if you're getting the game kick out with a black screen after a few seconds, follow these instructions, let me know if they worked for you. Send thanks my way if they did.
