Could i use rsd lite to sbf to milestone x firmware instead if ubuntu
[Droid X General] v0te4ryan:
You could flash the milestone X SBF with RSD lite however it would not do any good because when flashing an SBF in windows the radio is also flashed and the radio packaged with the milestone X firmware is not compatible with VZW. That's why we use Ubuntu to do this, because the VZW radio is left intact.
[Droid X General] htcdroidincredible23:
Ok thank you
[Droid X General] v0te4ryan:
No problem I know someone created a live CD image that has everything included where all you do is run a script and boom its done for you automatically, you can just burn it and then if you ever need to sbf in the future you will be able to just boot the live disc and be ready to roll. I just can't remember where it is.. I think it might be on another forum. maybe try to Google it hope that helps

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hasan10:
Hello everyone!

I have been a proud owner of a Samsung Galaxy S i9000 for almost 2 years (haha, proud owner...), and Asus Transformer Prime for 5 months (actually a pretty awesome device). I have just recently decided to sell both of these (getting a very amazing price for both) and deciding to go all Nexus, since I have been told that Nexus devices are the first to get updates and are generally the best investment.

Now, I am planning to buy the Galaxy Nexus and the Nexus 7 tablet. I have the following questions for both devices. Please reply with respect to each device:

- Can I transfer files from my PC to these devices, just like I have been able to do so with my previous devices?

- Do these devices have the same Android file management? I.e on my previous devices it was neccessary for me to make several different folders in my documents folder corresponding to my courses, and then transfer files such as PDFs, docs, pics etc. to them. Can I do the same with these devices? And also open them with some sort of file manager?

- Do these devices support TV-out? One of my biggest need for previous devices was Netflix streaming, and sometimes downloading torrents (hey don't look at me, Netflix's collection sucks :( ) and then playing them back to my TV. Can I do this with these devices?

And also need just a general opinion; I really only had the following combined primary uses of my devices: Web Browsing, Calls, Texts, PDFs notes, Games, and Netflix/movie playback onto my TV. Do you think with these two Nexus babies, would I be able to do all of these tasks?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crazypinoy9:
Nexus devices are fantastic. after the nexus one i never looked back.

1) the galaxy nexus and the nexus 7 are MTP devices so yes.

2) yes they do. just use a file manager like es file explorer. of course you will need to be rooted to have full functionality though.

3) shouldn't be a problem with a rooted galaxy nexus but so far it's a no go for the nexus 7...we'll see...

you won't regret having both devices.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hasan10:
Thank you for your prompt reply. Just one thing; Why do I need to root the Galaxy Nexus in order to use TV-out? And is MTP confirmed on Nexus 7?

So, if all goes well and I get my hands on these, I will use Galaxy Nexus for Calls, SMS, Camera, casual web browsing, music, and Netflix/TV-out and Nexus 7 for PDF notes, heavy web browsing, Skype, Documents, and emails. That sounds fair enough for these devices?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxorroxors:
rooting the device will not give you tv-out =( only use of USB drives

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
1. There's already a CM7/TouchWiz ROM. It isn't the full thing, but for those who want a touchwiz experience this is probably enough

2. Please don't create multiple threads

3. Rather than just asking for help (or in this case, basically asking for someone to do it for you) why not put in some effort, do the research and try coming up with the answer yourself? If that doesn't work, then try asking for help. The person above gave you some decent advice in that starting from a N1 or Desire ROM would make things easier for you, especially as a new dev. Don't get me wrong here, I'm excited at the possibility of having a new dev for the HD2 but also I don't think this is the right way to go about doing it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nFiniti:
I'm truly getting tired of this. I want auto dim turned off completely. Every 10 seconds I'm not touching the screen, it auto dims. I have the screen to stay on when charging and not to sleep for minutes when not charging. But the Auto dim stays on.

I've seen an app that shuts it off under specific apps. But That app is a fail to me. I want it off! I never want the screen to auto dim. The device has auto backlight brightness and that is all I want.

Anyone knows how I can do this? Maybe a file to edit? something?

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] astax:
Just wanted to share my experience of restoring IMEI which I've lost couple of months ago after following an unbricking instructions from this forum.

This may be a bit disappointing for those of you who are looking for a way to repair it ourselves, so to cut the long story short - I've brought my phone to the Samsung service and they've fixed this in 10 minutes for free!

I did flash some custom firmware and kernels several times, had a yellow triangle and did quite a few other fancy things with my phone. But eventually the phone just died on its own, although being on almost stock firmware and kernel. Unlucky for me I was not in the country where I bought it and I didn't have any warranty documents at all. Few weeks later I've found this repair instruction - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1528256 and was able to revive the phone. Almost... if not counting that IMEI was reset to the default one, which is blocked by all UK carriers.

Finally, a few days ago I came to Russia, reset the yellow triangle, flashed the stock firmware, grabbed warranty documents and headed to the Samsung service center, preparing myself for a long wait and being afraid that they won't fix it until I have to go back to the UK, which would be very disappointing. I've seen stories that service centers can't fix IMEI and just replace the main board.

And I can't express how much I was excited when I was told they can simply re-set the IMEI and it'll take just 10 minutes! All completely for free!
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] 'cooleagle':
Can you by any method get hold of any guy at the service center & ask him how did they do it ?

They surely would have a software program or tool with which they get it done. If you can get that tool / program by any chance it would help a lot of Galaxy R users world wide & no one will ever stop thanking you. :D

So I request you to at least try but with care. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
my friend owns a SSC, he have said there is a software which re-programs IMEI number to device and also require some hardware to do that (maybe JTAG). and with that software we can re-write EFS partion to all samsung devices and its not limited to galaxy R :D

but unfortunately they cant leak it as samsung have warned to not to leak this to public.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Birki96:
Where did he bought the SSC :D ?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] 'cooleagle':
If it's a only a software which I think it is then kindly request him to give it to you only. :D
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
dont know about other countries but here in india all SSC are not run by samsung, franchisees runs it on contract basis with samsung. and one of my friend is owning samsung franchisee.

---------- Post added at 01:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 PM ----------

once i searched over web and found this trick to write IMEI but it doesnt works for us, code doesnt makes ant effect.

http://www.talkingmobi.com/write-imei-number-android-phone-fastcardtech/
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] astax:
If there were such software that they could give out it would be already available for download. I'm pretty sure the main reason why it can't be distributed is that it can change IMEI which is illegal in many countries and makes ineffective the standard anti-theft measure of blocking certain IMEI numbers by mobile carriers.

If you're really interested, there are a few guys who offer remote IMEI repair using TeamView and some other software such as remote USB client. They do this for money so they surely won't just tell you all their secrets, but you can try. I suspect there is some hardware involved. For example, try contacting this person - http://forum.samdroid.net/members/cvxcvx/

What is Google Now?

There’s some confusion out there in the Android world. Google Now is not Android’s “Siri killer”, that’s Voice Search (which you can get to and use from within Google Now). Google Now is much, much more than an application that listens to queries and spits out answers. I’m not even sure we can call Google Now a virtual assistant either. Google Now is about automating your life and in return, making your life easier. Google Now does that by providing a vast amount of information, pertinent to you, at your fingertips. There’s just one catch though. Those of your that often go full tin foil hat mode really won’t be able to fully enjoy Google Now to its’ full potential. So take off your head gear and let’s get started.

[Google Now] tells you today’s weather before you start your day, how much traffic to expect before you leave for work, when the next train will arrive as you’re standing on the platform, or your favorite team’s score while they’re playing. And the best part? All of this happens automatically. Cards appear throughout the day at the moment you need them.
