Leaked Slides Of Sprint Touch Wallet Show A Serious Threat To Google Wallet

Found this at DroidDog.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Harfainx:
People said the same thing about paying for things online, and before that they said the same thing about using your credit card over the phone.

New technology brings change, and some people just don't agree with the changes, but as long as the general public accepts it, there is no way to stop it.

I personally think that paying for things without having to show anyone my credit card is a great idea. Grabbing my phone is much easier, and I don't have to worry about someone noticing the cash I have (I normally don't carry any, but sometimes I have quite a bit on me).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mtg981:
From what I remember, google didn't want to share any profits/fees from google wallet. That's why every one dumped them, and why Sprint is now dumping them. But I think GW has now changed their minds and is willing to share the usage fees, but it's too late as every carrier obviously is going with their own payment methods, ie. Isis, Sprint's touch wallet.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TechnoBurger:
Honestly this is fine by me. Google wallet never worked and sprint will probably be giving us some promotional credit to try it out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] newboyx:
I am just throwing this out there.

Any chance that since Google and Sprint have been so friendly in the past that the Sprint wallet app could possibly be just a re branded Google Wallet?

The apps look very similar, and maybe less tech savvy Sprint customers would be more willing to try something from Sprint.

[G2 and Desire Z General] matijaerceg:
When using the latest RC and Nightly CM7, my HTC Vision Calling App force closes when I pick up the phone sometimes, and it seems to be when there is screen rotation involved.

I am now able to reproduce my FC:

1. Make a call (such as to my voicemail).

2. Slide the physical keyboard open and closed, repeatedly. This rotates the screen each time, as I have accelerometer rotation disabled.

3. After a few keyboard slides, I will get a message "com.android.phone ... stopped working .. force close.. etc"

I have flashed 3 different radios from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=970809

I have wiped the the efs data, as per suggestions in above thread.

I have also done a full wipe of my phone, and reinstalled different versions of CM nightlies.

I have tried disabling screen rotation animation.

None of the above made any difference. The problem is solved when I revert back to CM 7.1.0 - should I post to official CM forums?

you can do it up to three times a month.

I know because they didn't port my number correctly so I was taking my chances with new numbers to get it somewhat easy to remember.

I changed my number in the Sprint store last August. I was in there for maybe three minutes total and wasn't charged a dime.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Droiddinho:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DarkManX4lf:
I wish you could select your number from a pool or at least request the middle threw digits... Ah well at least it's free now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chessmyantidrug:
Middle three digits? The three-digit prefix between the area code and last four digits? Each carrier has blocks of numbers from which to assign to customers. Sprint may have more than one block in your area. It wouldn't hurt to ask if you have options. I know my area has at least 882 and 642.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DarkManX4lf:
Yep those three digits. I asked sprint customer service and they said you can't... Only way to get all lines as the same three digits is when you get three new lines.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chessmyantidrug:
Interesting. I could see problems cropping up if you wanted to change multiple lines to similar phone numbers, but I don't see the problem in requesting your number to be placed in a specific block if numbers are available.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DarkManX4lf:
Yeah that's what I thought...But they can't seem to request specific numbers...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fastmikey1969:
can you pick the area code at least? I might change mine since no one recognizes my area code!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chessmyantidrug:
I'm pretty sure you can't pick the area code, that's automatically assigned based on where you live.

I can understand not allowing us to choose a specific number, but I don't see the problem with allowing us to request a number from a specific block.

What type of tape do you need to replace the digitizer?
[HTC Rezound] Max725:
Search on Amazon for "Rezound digitizer adhesive" (or if you don't want to be so pretentious, "Rezound screen tape" will give all the same results), and it will come up with some 2mm 3M screen adhesive for under five dollars. It lists the Rezound as a compatible device. I believe any 2mm tape would work, but one might as well get one made specially for the purpose.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmiker:
Hi there I have a Nexus S with 4.04 on it, so the other day I followed the instruction online and tried to root the phone, I have phone driver installed, and able to unlock my bootloader, the LOCK STATE is UNLOCKED. and I was able to flash Clockworkmod recovery v5.0.2.0.

But after this step, and I tried to reboot, my phone just stuck at the google logo with the unlock sign at the bottom, and wouldn't do anything afterward. (seems like a root loop?)

I tried pulling off the batt a few times but no good. I am still able to lock and unlock bootloader through cmd.(just like in normal state)

I tried to install factory img as shown in the thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1572307. but when I type in the first line "adb reboot bootloader", it says adb devices not found.

so, any idea on how I can restore back to the factory img?

bootloader version i9020xxkl1

model GT-i9020T or if any more info is needed I will be here.....>.<
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josebasanchezjs:
Did you correctly installed the recovery?

Hi.

First at all let me tell you that I'm not an expert. So, I understand that you should double check this.

I think that you should try to:

- If you have successfully installed the ClockworkMod recovery, you should turn on the device on recovery mode. Vol up + on pushbutton to go inside bootloader. Going down with Vol down, go to recovery and select with on pushbutton.

- Download the correct superuser app for your version. I would double check the md5sum of the file that you have downloaded on your computer.

- Mounting the usb storage of the device on your computer, add the superuser app on /sdcard.

- Umount the usb storage.

- Flash the superuser app, installing from /sdcard from your recovery menu.

- Download a custom kernel on your computer, once that you are unlocked. I'm using CyberGR, and I'm happy with it. You can see all the intallation instructions in the Nexus S development part.

- I that works, I would try to install the kernel in a clear way. For installing the CyberGR ROM, you need to wipe everything and format all. After that, you mount the device on the computer, and try the installation.

Then, if everything is ok, the device will turn on.

Again, I'm not an expert, and I don't know how you can be in contact with the developers that are posting in the developers area. I'm not responsible if your device doesn't works or get bricked.

However, I understand that all that I have described, should not put your device in a worst situation.

And is it doesn't turn on, if it doesn't do anything, then, you can use the linux tooll for bicked devices explained on the developers area.

I've mostly given up on rooting it, since all I wanted to do in it was unlock the phone to use with another SIM card as demonstrated in some other guides on here. I've also tried to do the factory reset via the bootloader, but it took an hour last time I tried without any discernible process.

All I really want to do is get it back to factory settings/ROM. Is there any way I can still do that? Or am I screwed?

Thanks,

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hittingray:
Ok, so I'm a bit confused about how to go around things. I wish to upgrade my phone to ICS 4.04; that I can handle. But I also wish to root it and install a custom ROM and kernel. My bootloader is currently locked and I understand that I need it to be unlocked for the custom ROM and kernel and the ICS root. I've already checked and my phone can be bootloader unlocked.

So here's the main question: What order should I do this in? Am I right in the method below?

Unlock bootloader

Install ICS via FT

Flash custom kernel with recovery

Flash custom ROM

Thanks.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maliceomalice:
yep...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Pretty much so. I'd put the rom zip on your SD card first, then use fastboot for the kernel, then flash the rom.

sinkster©
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hittingray:
So

1. Place custom ROM on SD

2. Use fastboot to install kernel

3. Boot Recovery

4. Install ROM

Right?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arpith.fbi:
unlock bootloader

copy ROM to sd card

flash custom kernel

flash custom ROM

no need to flash ICS fw..
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duridian:
If you are going to unlock the official Sony way, before you unlock bootloader on your Arc beware of a few things.

1. Using the official Sony unlock will remove the DRM keys from your phone. This is not really a big deal, but some Sony apps, like for example TrackID, won't work without these keys.

2. Using the official Sony unlock means that if at some time down the line you return to using official Sony roms, using an OTA (over the air) update from Sony can brick your phone. I know it sounds ridiculous but search this site, or look it up on Google, either of which will confirm this. This, to my mind anyway, is certainly a bigger deal.

I'd recommend that you avoid the official Sony method for these reasons. Although it's not usually free, I'd recommend going with the testpoint method for unlocking.

I got my Arc unlocked and SIM-freed by an XDA member called jinx13 and have really enjoyed using my phone since. I've been jumping back and forth through custom roms and official roms without any problems.

PS. arpith.fbi is right, no need to flash ICS before custom rom, just go straight to the custom rom.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazydorkk:
So I'm trying to learn a little more about exactly what all these terms really mean, but when I was reading a guide about rooting the Huawei U8650 (Sonic), the first step was to flash the phone with the original ROM.

Now with all the big terms used and all the disclaimers about bricking your phone, I was just wondering what exactly this does. I currently plan to flash my Huawei U8651T (aka T-Mobile Prism) with the original ROM for Huawei U8650 because from what I've read, they are the same phone, except the U8651T has some tech upgrades compared to the U8650, so I just wanted to know exactly what would I be doing to my phone and what potential problems may arise.

Thanks

Edit: Here's the guide I was reading (Can't post the link, but here it is copy-pasted)

To root U8650 you should flash it with original Rom, Spanish devices dont need original rom to root dont know why it is but it is

ROM

It is necessary to download an official ROM

LINK

After you download it unrar it and dload folder copy to memory card

Path should look like \ dload \ update

to flash device you need to

turn it off

remove the battery for 5 seconds

put the battery back in

press the buttons "VOL +" + "VOL-" + "ON" (all three keys at once)

and will start automatic firmware upgrade

for 3-4 minutes cell is debranded

If you get error not found firmware that means that you did not put the firmware on the SD card like you should (I got it a few times) just off the device and repeat the procedure.

root

After flashing unbranded firmware we can throw at root

software needed for the root LINK

This is similar to debranding.

download root file

Put it on SD card

turn off the phone

remove the battery for 3 seconds

Press "VOL +" + "ON" (without the vol-)

When you open the "bios like" menu use the volume keys up/down to select the update from memory card called root

after this procedure just reboot the phone and you have rooted phone
[Thinkpad Tablet General] shrinex:
As the title says, is there any way to set the function of, let say, the back key or the search key to wake the screen?

I know that the ICS port has this function natively but i'm using stock.

i tried Button Remapper and NoLock without success.

any ideas?

note: the reason being is that i need to replace the camera pcb since the power is busted.

it works.... if i pressed on the button with extreme force (yes, i've attempted to rectify the issue myself, but screwed up to the point where i can't undo and fix.)

SOLVED:

I edited key 248 (rotation key) with "POWER WAKE".

so now that key can turn off the tablet or wake it.

Makes things with tablet much more bearable until i get the front camera pcb ]replaced.

I'm on holidays in Asia with my Galaxy Note and the Tab 7.7 of my girlfriend. The Note is working fine as always, but I'm seriously getting fed up of by Samsung because of the Tab 7.7.

The tablet turned itself off yesterday and won't start up again. Pressing the power button does nothing (held it for at least 20secs). What can be accessed is the Download-Mode by pressing power button and volume buttom. But since I don't have a computer with me I can't try to put any roms on.

Is this a known problem and is there sonething I could try to get it back on?

Thats a relieve, but we don't have the wall charger with us. So it will remain dead until we're home...
