Ah ****.

I hate giving ETA's, never thought I'd run into this much crap...

Hopefully one of the other guys will fix it, I and nick have looked at it and can't fix it... even if I revert config back to how it was when we had it working...

The whole of today was spent trying to get working a recovery, and I couldn't.

Tomorrow I say a big bye to ICS recovery, GB recovery FTW.

Seriously though, overall bad day for me. I've failed myself, and my team, and all of you..

[Hero CDMA General] jmphillips76:
I want to say that the HTC Hero is an amazing phone. I currently owe Sprint money on a back bill, and I have gotten stuck with a prepaid Tmo phone (LG Mytouch) the phone is average with specs close to the first sgs' but not much to choose from by way of custom roms (nothing like the Hero). I plan on paying my bill off, then once I do I am wondering if I should resign a contract or go the prepaid route. If I do prepaid it is going to either be Boost or Virgin as my first two choices with either the HTC Evo Design or the HTC Evo 3D. My only other option is going to be Cricket with there best android phone at this time the Huawei Mercury. I refuse to stay with Tmo because there coverage in my area is EDGE (1 or 2G) and there 4G (3.5G) is 25 miles away so I get stuck with dial up speeds on a smart phone there pricing is good 30.00 unlimited text and web and 100 mins a month (I dont talk much)

I still have my HTC Hero yet the flashing of roms has slowly went down with the battery that only last 2 hours on a charge (going to replace that and use it in my car as a pmp)

I would like opinions on current phones from sprint or others and opinions welcome on where I should go ....
[Hero CDMA General] whoshotjr2006:
that evo 3d that virgin is offering is looking like a pretty good deal. i think when i get paid i might go for that myself.
[Hero CDMA General] jmphillips76:
Boost "where you at"

I ended up going with Boost and the Evo Design 4g because the Boost website had a 20% off deal (code 20OFF) and a local Bestbuy price matched it at 225.00. I must say the phone feels solid and pretty quick right out the box. I even had a chance to do some friendly comparisons between Boost (Sprint) and Tmo. While I was in the neighborhood of my not so local bestbuy (Pittsburgh 45 miles from my house) I pulled out the Evo and turned on its 4g and pulled out the mytouch and its 4g .... well Tmo sorta blew the wimax out the water but still very impressed with wimax

Lets begin I would love to live closer to either version of a 4g network but I dont. Tmo within a 20 mile radius of my house is only set up on there EDGE network so I get 56k speeds, Boost is a lot better at about 800k. Tmo's 4g down on the outskirts of Pittsburgh rang in at a nice 3238 down while wimax was 1786 down .... but the upload side of the speedtest was what felt weird Tmo's was only 481k and wimax at 1292 .... I think both plenty fast enough for most of the stuff I am doing ... But I had to choose Boost over Tmo because of the poor coverage in my area (good coverage just awful speeds for a smart phone)

With the Wimax speed it sorta makes me wish they could keep it and spread it out a lil more .... lol
[Hero CDMA General] whoshotjr2006:
Glad you got something you like. I've loved boost ever since I started with them 4 years ago, and see no reason to go anywhere else lol. I don't get wimax at all where I live so no big deal, the 3g speeds are plenty enough for me.
[Hero CDMA General] faZevoLv:
I'd say go for a HTC evo 3d, I thought about buying a HTC sensation but I love 3D!

As for mobile network, I'm on Three which is quite good and you get good deals on pay as you go, but signal is quite bad in some places (it is getting better), its up to you though:)

[Hero CDMA General] jmphillips76:
yep and I just ordered me a new battery on ebay for the HeroC and then all I can say is let the flashing begin (again) ... going to use it in my car as a pmp ... love that phone
[Hero CDMA General] megaghostgamer:
Dude lol. I understand you like your evo design but let me ask you a few questions. How much did u pay what's the processor speed and how much ram
[Hero CDMA General] jmphillips76:
I paid 225.00 at Bestbuy cause they matched the 20off code from the website, 1.2GHz processor, and 768 ram ... not super fast but quick enough and I have had no real issues with ICS or sense 3.6
[Hero CDMA General] megaghostgamer:
Wow HTC is getting really expensive! The hero c is still 30 used with new contract lol. I got my LG spectrum for 50$ brand new. 1.5 GHZ dual core, 1GB Ram.
[Hero CDMA General] jmphillips76:
I got mine through Boost without a contract, or I would have gotten the Evo LTE
[Hero CDMA General] megaghostgamer:
Yeah mine is expensive without contract so I see what your getting at
[Hero CDMA General] jmphillips76:
Wow you know I may have made a mistake with this phone ... Or I just miss all the great devs from the HTC Hero.
[Hero CDMA General] oohaylima:
We did have a good run over here. I know I still use my hero as a backup when my phone is down. Or as a VOIP.
[Hero CDMA General] whoshotjr2006:
dont worry guys were still having said run. i or someone else will bring jb ports (aokp, paranoid, miui) to heroc when shelnutt gets everything worked out. actually i was just looking at paranoid jb over in wfs forums, and it looks like it may be an easy port. key lime may be a different story, but im willing to bet we wont be out in the cold.

ill make someone a deal, ill port it if anyone else wants to maintain it?

lol and jmphillups, dont worry bud. you made a good choice. the evo series has some pretty sweet phones, and its a great logical step up from the heroc. im loving my og evo 4g rocking evervolv jb and its plenty slower than that evo design 4g you got.
[Hero CDMA General] oohaylima:
Whaa? Freakin sweet!
[Hero CDMA General] jmphillips76:
that is some awesome news I just got the battery from ebay and was flashing some of my all time favorites like OMGB and OMFGB and the couple sense 2.2 roms that I have collected. I am glad to see these things coming. Thanks

yeah I been using mine as VoIP also both with a sipgate setup and I just purchased GrooveIP ... its also my MP3 player, may not be as fancy as an IPod but I was never a fanboy anyways.
[Hero CDMA General] Hippie459MN:
I have had my Evo3D for over a year now and I love it but for some reason I can not part with my Hero. I just flashed TWRP 2.2.0 recovery to i today and flashed a new rom and and its like christmas all over again. LoL I love this little phone.

Some reason though the market always FC on me. Wonder if it has anything to do with not having any service. Trying to update some apps over wifi and it always FC on me.

EDIT: Looks like the market is working just fine now on this new rom. I am able to download and update apps now. HAPPY!! :D

[Eee Pad Transformer General] oct8:
First, I want to thank all the people who bring their contribution to this forum. This is by far the best resource place.

However, I couldn't find the solution to my problem, at least until now.

I had my Asus TF101 updated to the ICS and after that, the problems begin.

If I attempt to reboot it, it remains stuck to the screen with:

Eee Pad

Asus

Inspiring inovation....

powered by Nvidia tegra

Pressing pwr+vol dwn leads to the same screen with some lines saying:

"Checking for RCK.. press vol up in 5 sec to enter RCK"

If I press vol up

it remains stuck after a last line appears saying:

"Booting recovery kernel image"...it stays like that forever.

If I dont press vol up, it goes to a 2nd screen with two options in the middle: "wipe data" and the little green android man

If I chose wipe data, after confirming with volume buttons, it says:

"please wait a few minutes....

booting recovery kernel image"

If I chose the android, now it starts the cold boot linux, and that's practically the only way I can started.

That's basically the story.. It is imposible to get any update needing a reboot, incl firmware update (there is one attempting to install for the last two weeks)

For the reference, here are the versions installed:

Android version 4.0.3

Kernel version 2.6.39.4

android@Mercury#1

Build number: IML74K.US_epad-9.2.1.24-20120503

Tried a couple of solutions, incl NVFalsh, Viper mod and easy flasher, without success. It is also possible that I didn't use them appropriately.

I am almost desperately looking for a solution, so any help is greatly appreciated. If it comes in a form of step by step type it would definitively help even more.

Thanks a million for taking time to read this and to reply!!

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jermzz:
I have an att one x and I'm headed to Europe. Is it possible at all to get my phone to work there, or would I have to have the international version?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Roaming on AT&T or using a local carrier SIM (such as a prepaid)?

If using a local SIM, you will need to SIM unlock the phone. Folks on here have had success with a couple online paid SIM unlock services for about $11. I don't think all the services have the ability to unlock our particular phone, only a certain services could do it when it was being discussed a month or so ago. Just browse or search for the thread discussing SIM unlock or using the phone on T-Mobile, and you will find the particular unlock service/websites that work.

Roaming on AT&T is really pricey, but I do it when travelling on business, as I just charge it to my work. If you intend to do this, you need to call AT&T customer service (611 on your phone) before you go and setup international roaming. Its not activated by default, and you have to do it by phone (can't do it online).

Either way, the phone will work just fine in Europe, both voice/EDGE and 3G. Most places in Europe use GSM 900 and 1800 MHz for voice and EDGE, and HSPA/UMTS 2100 MHz for 3G. All of which are fully compatible with the AT&T One X. I was just in Germany, and both voice and 3G data were working fine on this phone.

If you want to verify the bands used in the particular country (or countries) you are travelling to, you can look here:

http://www.worldtimezone.com/gsm.html
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jermzz:
Thanks for the response. I tried to call att and they said the phone was not able to be unlocked. I ended up buying an unlock code on eBay, for anyone else who is interested. It was only 5 dollars and now I am able to run a sim from any network. Thanks again for the info!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
AT&T will not provide the SIM unlock code until 10 months after a phone's release. You also have to be a postpaid account holder in good standing for at least 90 days.

Also be aware that whatever local carrier you intend to use, will have to be one that has micro-SIMs available (or you can cut them using tools or guides available online, if you care to try it). Micro-SIMs are getting more common, as more new devices have them. But wouldn't hurt to do a bit of checking before your trip.

Well, chances are we won't be getting any more updates and if we do get jb from att it will be a ways down the road. So, you may not have the chance to update anymore if u remain stock (UNrooted that is). Cwm is actually quite simple to use once u start using it.
