I think it depends on the individual's ability to illustrate and prove their drive and commitment to their craft. Experience is always preferable, but someone truly commited and promising is an equally valuable asset, as well.

Google is the dream company to work with for many people that aspire to do <strong>great</strong> things in their careers and lives. Both people with experience and without, like yourself and myself and anyone else reading this thread and asking the same question. That being said, it's better to be <i>more</i> prepared than your competition if you lack the experience they have. It's great to be self-driven and be able to learn a subject or trade on your own time. Employers don't look for visionaries during a job interview, they look for competence. Demonstrate your competence to get the job done as well as your proficiency in the professional skills required to do it. Beyond that, it's in their hands to pick whoever they see fit for the job.
[HTC EVO 3D] UnderZone7:
I am s-off and using the latest 4ext recovery. I upgraded from revolutionary CMW to 4ext so i could try CM9. It was alright but nothing special. Afterwards i tried to update to the latest vitrous sense 4.0 rom and i couldn't get past with the boot animation. Every single ROM i tried has been like this. Im wiping the data before I flash and using supewipe.zip. I never faced issue with CMW is it the recovery or am i doing something wrong?
[HTC EVO 3D] wloftus:
have you tried using the app Flash GUI to install this ROM?
[HTC EVO 3D] UnderZone7:
what is Flash GUI? and if its an app i cant boot into any roms right now. everything i try will only take me to the boot screen.
[HTC EVO 3D] wloftus:
how long are you waitng at this boot screen... i know when i installed CM9 it took over 5 minutes at the boot screen to set it all up ... flash GUI is an app to flash roms from the phones ROM but you wont use that ...which part of the boot are you getting stuck at... the one with the CM9 logo and the rotating electric ? or at the first splash screen showing the htc logo?
[HTC EVO 3D] UnderZone7:
Any rom i try to install in general wont work. They all take to their boot animations and then nothing i even let them try to boot untill my phone dies. I just tried flashing cm9 and that seems like the only rom which still works.
[HTC EVO 3D] wloftus:
have you tried extracting the boot.img file from your ROM and then manually flashing it? try MeanROM 2.3 as well its a new one that is ICS based and loads fairly fast ... atleast i had no issues with it...also on your first time boot make sure the phone is NOT plugged up to the data cable
[HTC EVO 3D] zachdees:
i dont know if you know this but if you download the PG86IMG from Goo im you can put that on the root of your sd card which is the first thing you see when you click sd card you can run that from bootloader and reset the phone
[HTC EVO 3D] UnderZone7:
I fixed the problem. I just had to use flash image gui.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Are you sure you are s-off? I ask because I have never seen anyone need Flash Image GUI who is.

[HTC EVO 3D] UnderZone7:
99% sure it says in my hboot I am. But is their any way to go back to revolutionary cwm i never had any problems with it.
[HTC EVO 3D] wloftus:
this one?
[HTC EVO 3D] UnderZone7:
thats it but how do i flash it?
[HTC EVO 3D] scariola:
4ext works great, under wipe, select wipe dalvich + cache, then the format all partitions(besides sd card) option near the bottom.

Then flash your Rom, by chance is 4extsmartflash on? That's for s on devices so turn it off if enabled, as you are s off.
[HTC EVO 3D] wloftus:
just to make it simple download the file ad rename it to recovery.img and move it to the same place the fastboot.exe is located... take your phone and boot into your hboot by holding volume down and then the power button.. scroll down to the fastboot option and press the power button... youll see the screen change and then plug your phone up to your computer you should see on your phone screen now the phrase "fastboot usb"... from there open up a ms-dos window and direct yourself to the directory with the fastboot.exe and recovery.img files.. then type in

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

it should send and then write , when completed power your phone and then reboot into recovery and it should be then revclockmod version...and probs feel free to PM me
[HTC EVO 3D] 512jmann10:
Happen before

This is something that happened me to me before, my problem was I erased a bunch of important stuff and tried to install a kernel using recovery. I'm on hboot 1.50 so yeah **** turn messy. But I unrooted, then re-rooted and used GUI to flash my kernel of any choice but ext to flash my rom. Revolutionary recovery doesn't work too good on my phone, so it also varies depending on recovery:fingers-crossed:, just word of advice do a factory reset+wipe dalvich cache(do it at least 2 times) and it has worked for me whenever I flash a new rom. Whenever you reboot give it some time and don't rush or press anything. Once your rom kicks in let it sit for at least a couple mins and then proceed with whatever you need to do. Hope this helps!
[HTC One X] gerald8_kop:
alright guys

hoping you can help me out here. got a rather strangle problem on my new htc one x where i keep getting a 'insert sd card' message when attempting to save attachments despite having tonnes of space available. anyone else had this or know of a fix? it seems to save photos that ive taken using the camera happily enough just not photos that have been sent from others.

EDIT: its the same story with emails also

thanks in advance all!

Thank you to all of the developers who have turned this phone into so many different things over the course of its existence.

Thank you for late nights flashing the newest leaks and early mornings restoring back to stock because I had to go to work.

Thank you for 2 years of fond memories and thank you for your continued efforts. I appreciate everything everyone has done for me and for the Epic 4g community.

I'll see you all in greener pastures. <3

[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
True.
[Epic 4G General] lepapirriky:
But that's after the 99 dollars for replacement, right?
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
yes, but the thing is, my epic was dead either way, and i need another phone. why pay a 100 dollar deductible on a 2 year old epic valued at around 70 dollars, when i can pay the same deductible and get the not even 1 year old evo 3d, witch if i decided to sell it today, would bring me 200 dollars or better.

the deductible was going to be paid either way.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iwasblown:
I'm looking forward to getting it but am not sure if it will be worth the upgrade when I could buy the next upcoming nexus. What do you his think will be the better purchase?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MikeYuse0406:
Do you mean galaxy s3? I will stay with my s2 and see what else comes out later.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] movieaddict:
I was gonna get it but im short on funds so ill next week or the week after....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Atmazzz:
I was thinking about getting it but with their limited rollout the closest place is 2 hours away. My puny city of 350,000 isn't good enough.

I think now I'll just use my money for the Transformer Infinity. My GS2 is running pretty good since I tweaked everything.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ITALIANNYC:
I just got the gs2 2 weeks ago after trading in from my HTC amaze. I have to be honest. It really is the best phone I have ever used. Sure the screen res isnt the greatest but you get over that a day after you have it.

The only thing that can be improved and has been with the gs3 is the camera. It is worth the upgrade, but I doubt its needed as soon as it comes out. Ill wait about 6 to 8 months when the price goes down.

I am perfectly happy with my gs2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Vzqsmooth56:
If your looking for a camera that can math the s3 download "fast burst camera lite". It's an amazing camera app. As well as "lgcamera". It allows you to take videos at higher mbits which is always a good thing. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TerrorCandii:

[HTC One X] an.d.d:
Hi. My HOX is having a data signal issue where it wont connect sometimes, gets no signal when it should and shows a signal but wont connect to the internet.

It seemed fine before 1.28 but ever since 1.28 it had this problem. I thought 1.29 would fix this issue as i thinks it's software related but no. My wifi signal is perfect so its not hardware? I did the squeeze test to see if it affects the network signal but it doesn't.

I've looked around the site but cant find a full 1.29 rom and instructions. Can anyone provide me with a link please? Otherwise I'm gunna have to send this HOX back too(4th). Which is starting to get annoying!

Thanks Andy
[HTC One X] theROMinator:
You are on a 1.29 ROM now, correct? If so, you should back up all your data then do a factory data restore. This can be done by going to Settings >.Storage - factory data reset.
[HTC One X] an.d.d:
Thanks for the reply. I should of already said I have done a hard reset, no change. I think the installation files are corrupted or something?
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
What software build are you on at the mo?
[HTC One X] an.d.d:
I'm on 1.29. Locked unbranded and on 3. Most people have said use a custom rom because the radio version from 1.28 is bad. But this will void my warranty right? I think i'm gunna need a warranty with the one x!
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Full build version? If 1.29.401.11 then use the relevant RUU
[HTC One X] an.d.d:
Yes thats the version. Can I just manually update the radio on the on x with this?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Namtaru:
I have a brand new Galaxy Nexus that I bought outright from a friend.

Last Friday I took it into a Verizon store to get a new sim card.

When I got home I unlocked the bootloader, rooted, and that's it, I kept the stock Verizon rom on it and just installed a few of my apps off the market.

Since Friday my phone has rebooted a number of times, while in use it gets VERY hot (135*F), 4 or 5 times now I have gotten a window that comes up and says "Select next to finish activation" as if the phone thinks it's not activated yet, and the worst of them is the 4G drops on this phone far too often. I have been taking the same route home for over a year and on my Tbolt i had a solid 4G signal the whole way, on the Galaxy it drops to 3G about 4 or 5 times on the way home, and sometimes loses data alltogether.

Not sure if these are all just flukes, or if other people have experienced this as well.

Thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evolving:
Yes,unroot relock and take it in the same thing happened to mine and I got a brand new one..mine dropped 4g constantly you may wanna call and have them trouble shoot it so when they see it doesn't help they will write up a ticket note it on ur account so when u go into a store no waiting or stupid questions

Oh and I would only mention that its dropping signal all the time nothing more nothing less
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Namtaru:
Yeah and just to be clear, i relocked and unrooted and used it all day today and still having the same issues.

When I went into the store today they flat out would not help me whatsoever because i didn't buy the phone from them.

They said it doesn't matter if I was the first person to touch the phone after it came out of the box, if i didn't buy it from them (Verizon) then they won't warranty it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Namtaru:
Called support and got told the same thing, the phone is no longer under warranty because it changed ownership, even though I just activated it 6 days ago.

Well isn't that just ****ing great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eddol20:
OK ... don't go to the verizon store they won't do it for you ... what you need to do is call tech support and tell them your issues .... listen the galaxy nexus is less than a year old verizon have to give support to the customer.. . I'm telling you because I've done it ... I been with verizon for years and I've owned several phones and every time I get a phone a new phone without signing a new contract first thing I do is call tech support and ask for a replacement .... if the phone is less than a year old they will do it ....... good luck
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Namtaru:
I already called support, they wont replace it, because I didn't purchase it directly from my account.

I'm taking the long route here and shipping it back to my friend, who is going to put it back on his account, then get a refurb, then send me the refurb when he gets it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] typci:
This is especially important for those of you downgrading from 2.3 to 2.2:

1)How do you access the pink screen?

Vol+ & Vol- & power

2) How do you install the update from the Dload folder?

Vol+ & Vol- & power

3) What if you bootloop and you need access to the pink screen so you can fix it?

Vol+ & Vol- & power

Wait, doesn't that install the update?

Point being, if you update from from internal sd card and it doesn't work, and you try to go back to the pink screen to fix it, then you may end just reinstalling the update again, and not be able to access the pink screen. After installing the update, it's supposed to put a log file in there so it won't install it again. Sometimes it doesn't see the log and decides to update again. My log file had 12 attempted installed written to it.

It just happened to me, and I'm sure you don't want it to happen to you. I got lucky and after reinstalling the update 10+ times, one lucky time it loaded the pink screen and I went ubuntu and deleted the dload folder. If I hadn't gotten lucky and had ubuntu, my phone would've discovered a new kind of soft-brick.

Also for those of you wanting to downgrade, I suggest you have a ubuntu liveCD ready. It may come in handy for dealing with problems.

Mine still tried to install after I inserted an sd card. That was the first thing I thought of. I tried 3 different sd cards, and it took 10 tries to get it not to install. Maybe I have a hardware problem, but I still don't think it is worth the risk.

So after doing a search of stock ICS issues I came up with about 3 pages of stuff, but didn't really find any lists. I was hoping this could be a thread devs could look at and a place where people can post their findings.

I'll start

-----------------------

Bluetooth:

Bluetooth has an issue I have tested on a few vehicles - seems to be only vehicle related oddly - where BT will randomly disconnect and then reconnect often. I have seen this happen about 5 or 6 times in a half hour period.

Swype:

I have read that people say that they are having lag. That does not be seem to be the case with me however. What I do find annoying is how Swype on stock ICS constantly resizes the screen when removing the word selection bar. I really wish there was a way of just having that bar stay static. It seems to flutter while typing and bugs my eyeballs!

- Edit - Seems like adding the option for word prediction helps just a little to reduce to screen flutter some, but not completely.
