Hey Guys,

Great deal on Ebay; there's droid incredibles that are refurbished (in B+ condition, I assume that it means near perfect but still a little handled)

for $105. Not a bad price for a phone.

It says locked to verizzon i think right?

Even if i root it i wont be able to use it in europe?
[Member-Found Deals] ForgetfulFellow:
The ebay description claims that it is locked to verizon,

I have never owned an CDMA phone so I don't know if XDA has ways to make it unlocked for any CDMA carrier
[Member-Found Deals] orangekid:
you can get it on other CDMA carriers (Cricket, Boost) pretty easily using EPST, but you cannot get it on any GSM carriers.
[Member-Found Deals] chils41:
so using EPST you can flash the phone to work on any CDMA carrier around the world? Provided they Activate your handset on their n/w ?

I've unlocked my WT19a's bootloader using official Sony method.

Every topic says that it removes DRM keys and the functionality of some apps, like TrackID.

However, TrackID downloaded from Play Store works normally here.

Is it usual? Shouldn't TrackID stop working after the bootloader has been unlocked?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Original TrackID does stop working.

Downloaded from Market continues working.

Also, Like button in Walkman stops working.

What do you mean copyrighted music :S ???
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Music files, which include some kind of protection inside the files and require the DRM keys to be allowed to play.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] nit3wolf:
Doesn't it sounds funny? Keeping DRM helps piracy hahahahaha!!!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
How come?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] nit3wolf:
With DRM you can reproduce copyrighted (protected) music, and without you can't!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
That kind of music files have strict protection. Will post more info when I get to my laptop.

EDIT:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_rights_management#Internet_music
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] davidcmc:
With DRM keys you can only play DRM protected files that you bought yourself.

DRM files have a mechanism that only allow them to be played in specific/authorized devices.

So, with locked bootloader (and proper DRM keys), you won't be able to play DRM protected files bought from another people.

Unlocking bootloader means that you loose DRM keys.

Loosing DRM keys means that you can't reproduce DRM protected music files that you bought from stores like Amazon, iTunes etc.

Sony thinks that a custom ROM/kernel would allow the user to reproduce DRM files on a non-authorized Android phone.

Sony sells musics, so... You've got the point.

[Blade General] Spt92:
My ZTE Blade sold by Wind(Greek Comp) with 256mb, TPTed to GEN2, no APP2SD or anything like that..

The problem is as the title says, my phone reboots like randomly, especially when i try play SOME games.. Tried CM7, CM9, some other modded CM7, some modded stock roms etc..

I tried TPT GEN1 to GEN2 again lately, tried out some roms, the problem still exists...

Some1 told me, maybe its the kernel's fault, i tried diff roms with diff kernels, the result is the same..

I played with some overclocks(NOT DANGEROUSLY), i just noticed that overclocked it is more likely to get a reboot..

Examples of reboots: scrolling my contacts, benchmark, installing app, searching on google play/market, watching a streaming video using MX video player(using right codecs), just surfing on Dolphin Mini

any ideas?

Thank you..

Get some program for monitoring/logging your phone temperature and see if you can find the problem that way.

its getting hot after a while on wifi browsing and like 15mins on gaming..

but ive seen it rebooting itself while cold.. i dont believe its the temp.. i have been watching like 5 episodes of anime streaming straight(on MXplayer, via WiFi) and getting hot like hell but not rebooting..

but its been times when i just open WiFi and then open DolphinHD Mini(internet browser), and when i click on play(for some stream), video starts playing for 3secs and then boom, Android logo onscreen...
[Blade General] karthiknr:
I think your phone is rebooting randomly because of the lack of RAM. Try a monitoring app such as Norton Utilities or anything else and check for battery temperature/Less RAM issues.
[Blade General] Spt92:
its not the ram. the thing that i care most is the ram.. my ram stays low at almost all times.. Its been times that i use many apps at once that use like 90% of the ram or more and it nothing happens... the phone reboots randomly, as i said, just by opening an app or (it happend like 30mins ago while i was going to call my friend) scrolling on contacts, and the phone's uptime was like 3hours..

tbh how else the ram could be the problem, except the overloading..

not sure if its going to help,

Preperations i do before install new rom:

i dont usually backup the previous rom

booting to clockworkmod (powerkey + vol-)

wipe data/factory

wipe cache

wipe dalvik cache

once a while wipe battery stats

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KPY:
Hi guys, this is my first post. English is not my native language, so sorry for any mistakes :)

One week ago i bought a TF300T in UK and now is with me in Spain. The first thing i did was unlocking the device and testing the CM9 rom. I restored the system and with the stock rom the device is not stable (random freezes and reboots).

Triying to get back to factory settings (to stop the reboots), i deleted the whole sd-card (internal memory) and the '/system' folder (don't know why i did it >_<).

Now, the tablet don't start. The screen show the Asus logo and the "Device is unlocked" message. I can access to the recovery (and i can change it) and to the "fastboot" mode, but the recovery can't mount the sd-card via USB, so i can't flash a new room.

I've tried to load a "system.img" via fastboot, but is useless, /system folder is still empty. To do this i've used the "mkyaffs2image" to create a system.img from an old clockworkmod backup.

In conclussion, i have this:

- Deleted /system partition

- Empty sd-card partition

- Full-functional recovery (clockworkmod and team win recovery project).

- Full-functional fastboot mode

- No access to internal memory (can't copy a new rom to internal memory)

I've been trying to create a valid system.img, but i don't how to (i've been reading about a linux tool called "mkfs.yaffs2" but the tutorial that i found seems to be useless, the tablet i still "bricked").

Can anybody help me?

Thank you :)

It shouldn't reboot on stock ROM. I would say you have a faulty unit, though if you have unlocked it you might not be able to get it swapped out.

Flash the Stock ROM and DON'T Root it or flash recovery, if it still reboots its faulty.

If it doesnt reboot when its unrooted and only reboots when its rooted you have a dodgy app on there causing it

So when I play Fifa12 during the day, There is so much lag and slowdown, Even with Hard gaming mode of ram manager pro and use fast reboot app before I play the game. on the other hand, if I reboot my phone. Every game run so smooth and I don't need to change to hard gaming mode in ram manager pro.

Any suggestion ?

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AwaisKhan:
Because your system is probably using more ram in the middle of the day, after a reboot your system uses alot less & slowly increases, you should uninstall unused apps & close unwanted services & maybe use Advanced Task Killer (From The Play Store)

V6 Supercharger settings ?

Hi,

First thread I read so far where people are mentioning they use V6Supercharger on XPeria Play.

I have a question :

Do you use V6 Supercharger on the stock 2.3.4 Sony-Ericsson ROM or are you applying it on a custom ROM ?

If on the stock ROM, what settings are you putting in ?

I ask before I tried to apply V6 Supercharger on my R800i under Stock SE ROM without success.

Frozen boot screen of death...

Had to recover through ClockWorkMod. Thanks ClockWorkMod !

Thanks for your feedback !
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Melidian:
Hi there,

As nobody answered my call so far, I come back to give feedback on my own experience.

I tried again to install the V6Supercharger Script and manage to get through this time.

The first time, I guess I simply did not wait enough time.

In fact, I had to wait like almost 10 minutes on the Sony-Ericson XPeria logo (after the boot animation) before my phone came back to life.

It can be quite stressful ! :)

After that, I went through the pin code entry screen and found out some of my widgets did not properly load and some applications were not showing up.

Therefore, I rebooted and everything went fine on the second time. All the apps showed up properly (only mixed up in the scrolling app section).

Launching the script again, it confirmed my phone was 100% supercharged with the following settings :

- DieHard launcher

- Rock&Roll Kernel

- Miscellaneous tweaks and 3G enhancement installed

- 512HP setting with V6 CustOOMizer option

- Minfrees set at 8, 12, 40, 47, 55 and 62MB

with 367MB of Ram (is this correct for the XPlay ?).

This was applied on the Sony Ericsson stock ROM 2.3.4 and the stock Kernel.

The first impression was that the scrolling between various home displays was faster.

I started Dead Trigger, running correctly (maybe just a bit slower, not sure) and when I exited the game, I had almost no Redraw time to wait.

Before V6 Supercharger, I used to wait around 5 seconds before all the icons were there again and I could scroll.

This time, the icons were right there and the scrolling hesitated for maybe 1 second but got super smooth again right after that.

Ok, this is to share my experience with you, guys.

No idea if anyone has experience on the XPlay ? Maybe using other settings ?

As there is a clear note that this script is not intended for heavy gamers, it tends to indicate it should not be really used on the XPlay, mainly used by heavy gamers.

What is your opinion on that ?

Cheers,
