Don't forget Sprint will be rolling out LTE advanced
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luckymeeh:
Keep in mind that you are NOT the only Sprint customer with an LTE-capable phone in Kansas, dude.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Yuhfhrh:
I never said I was, sorry if that was implied anywhere. I was just trying to keep others posted about what LTE has been like these past two days on my Sprint GN.

Edit: Sorry I see your point now, yeah but I'm assuming the majority don't at this point, considering they have only sold lte phones for a few months now. Which is why I'm worried in about 6-12 months what might happen once the majority is on lte.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] captblaze:
The problem is none of the wireless carriers in the US want to build enough capacity into their data networks. Until they do that data slow down is inevitable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Yuhfhrh:
I think Sprint's 3g network is probably the best example of that lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dw3bb10:
Its annoying when Verizon users say, " I get more than that". Yea, you're probably on a 2GB tiered data plan too.

So long as I have a consistent connection of atleast 10/10, im GOOD. AND its unlimited. You wont notice a difference on a mobile phone with 10Mbps down (Low latency) vs 30Mbps down (Higher Latency). Latency aside, probably wouldnt notice much of a difference regardless.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Yuhfhrh:
Speaking of tiered plans, I've gone overboard! Only 2 days of LTE being live and look at my usage:

The sad thing is according to my phone, 50% of that is from speedtests. >.< I'm gonna have to cut back the rest of the month for my fellow Sprint users lol

[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
I have searched the forums, and I can not find the answer to my specific situation. Please forgive me if it is there somewhere. The story…….

- last working ROM was VIVO ICS official, RUU installed. (RUU_VIVO_ICS_35_S_HTC_WWE_4.10.405.1_Radio_20.74.30.0833U_3831.18.00.11_M_release_266013_signed.exe). HBOOT was changed to 2.02 S-ON, bootloader locked. I unlocked via HTCdev. Before this I had IceColdSandwich 8.1.1, ENG Hboot S-OFF. I had originally used the GB downgrade ROM to S-OFF, and restored IceCold backup after this.

- I wanted to be S-OFF again, and so tried installing this zip using CWM Recovery, following the advice of tpbklake:

vivo_signed_WWE_4.10.405.1_ICS_SENSE36_5.zip Version 1.1

(from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1756500&page=1)​

- now boot loop. I tried reinstalling other ROMs which I have successfully installed in the past (GB downgrade, stock ICS), and also restore various backups, but all result in boot loop (stuck on white HTC screen). Each time I would use CWM Recovery to clear dalvik, cache etc.

- I have now followed 'fix' instructions in that same thread, ie. :

1. Download the file lib.zip from here: http://bit.ly/PwK4BH

2. Unzip the lib.img and place it on your PC where you have fastboot.exe installed.

3. Boot into FASTBOOT USB mode and then enter the following command:

fastboot flash lib lib.img

4. Download the file format_lib_update.zip from here: http://bit.ly/RIpEUL

5. Copy it to your SD card.

6. Boot into recovery and then install format_lib_update.zip

7. While in recovery format the SYSTEM partition.

8. Then reinstall vivo_signed_WWE_4.10.405.1_ICS_SENSE36_5.zip​

But at step 3 I get the following:

C:\adb>fastboot flash lib lib.img

Please help! I’m close to considering myself properly bricked, and using that as an excuse to go and buy a OneX.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
OK, so what is the state of your HBOOT? Are you still HBOOT 2.02.0002 UNLOCKED?

When you are using the an unlocked HTC HBOOT and you flash a custom ROM in CWM, you then manually have to extract the boot.img file from that ROM's zip file and flash it manually in FASTBOOT USB mode. If you don't do that, you will get a boot loop.

What you need to do if you can still get into CWM and the bootloader is still UNLOCKED is reflash that ROM again and then flash the boot.img file in FASTBOOT mode and you should be ok.
[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
yep

I should have mentioned, I already tried that. However, I will try it one more time. I tried so many things - if I try it again in isolation, I will be 100% sure I am telling you the truth.

Thanks for the reply.
[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
OK, I tried it again.

- In CWM Recovery, install from zip, chose 'vivo_signed_WWE_4.10.405.1_ICS_SENSE36_5.zip'

- It completed successfuly (rather quickly)

- extracted boot.img from that zip, places in adb/fastboot folder on PC

- Rebooted phone into bootloader USB

- On PC, executed 'fastboot boot boot.img'

C:\adb>fastboot boot boot.img

downloading 'boot.img'...

OKAY [ 1.328s]

[HTC Incredible S] Drugzy:
Instead of "fastboot boot boot.img"

it should be

"fastboot flash boot boot.img"

Try that and see how it goes

Well then you can always relock the bootloader and then run the 4.10.405.1 RUU like you did originally. Then you can unlock the bootloader since you already have the unlock_code.bin file.
[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
Then I will end up where I was in the first place? Oh well, at least I could use the phone.

Anyhow......

C:\adb>fastboot oem lock

HBOOT now says:

*** RELOCKED ***

*** Security Warning ***
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Once you get back to that point, unlock the bootloader, install ClockworkMod and then flash su-3.0.7-efghi.zip to root the official ROM. Then you should be able to rerun the downgrade process to get back to S-OFF.
[HTC Incredible S] XxSHaDoWxSLaYeRxX:
Reinstall the HTC ruu
[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
But my relock resulted in a security warning, as shown above. Are you telling me that's fine, and I can go ahead with RUU? Thanks
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Yes you should be ok.
[HTC Incredible S] naathaanb96:
yep he will be , during my downgrade i had to relock with security warning and ruu fixed it all
[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
Thanks very much. The stock ICS RUU has now installed successfully. I guess when I originally tried to reinstall it, I had left out the 'RELOCK' step, which is why it failed.

So now I am back to the start (stock ICS + HBOOT 2.02 S-ON), and want to get S-OFF and install your ROM zip. ,What I originally intended to do to get S-OFF was:

1) Unlock the bootloader, flash CWM Recovery, flash SU

2) Run downgrade GB RUU

3) S-off with Revolutionary

4) Install Blackrose HBOOT

5) Install your vivo_signed_WWE_4.10.405.1_ICS_SENSE36_5.zip

But step 2) failed with an unknown error. (I then tried to install your zip, and the rest is the sad history.....).

So what caused step 2 to fail? Did I need to relock the bootloader first?

Many thanks for your help, tpbklake
[HTC Incredible S] Drugzy:
Did you use this script to downgrade and then flash gb ruu?

[HTC Incredible S] Drugzy:
What is the status of your bootloader? Is it locked, unlocked or relocked? If it is locked you may have to answer n to is the phone rooted to give temp root. If not on page 76 of this post there is the same issue.

And fyi it will not change the h boot version, only the main ver which is reported at the end of the script.

[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
No, I'm unlocked and rooted
[HTC Incredible S] Drugzy:
Does the stock ruu have superuser installed? If it does I'm outta ideas.

---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

One more thing, I would try flashing another ROM, i came from Niks Sense 4a rom, and the script worked with no issues.

Remember you will need to manually flash the boot.img of the rom as you are S-ON.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Open a command window and then type in the command:

adb shell

If you get a # prompt then your ROM is rooted correctly and the script should run. If it doesn't then the ROM isn't properly rooted and the script will fail.
[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
I had installed superuser after installing ICS RUU.

RUU downgrade GB again results in: ERROR[140]: BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
I gets the # prompt after I then type 'su'
[HTC Incredible S] mr nick:
I had this error opening input file error on my original ICS install. The problem seemed to be caused by the rom not being correctly rooted despite Ti backup saying it was. Luckily I had an old backup of a properly rooted rom so I was able to sort myself out. Maybe try installing 'Root Check' off the market and see if that reports back that you've got proper root access.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
OK, that is the issue. As mr nick pointed out this is a difference with having a rooted ROM and a ROM that has been rooted with SuperUser. The difference is with a rooted ROM when you type "adb shell" you automatically get the # prompt, which the script is expecting.

On a ROM that has been rooted by installing SuperUser from recovery mode, you have to manually type "su" to get the # prompt.
[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
But this process would often be followed by people with stock ROMs, which I thought could only be rooted in this way?

I used it in the past with my original stock GB, to get my first S-OFF. No problem.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
From what we are seeing, I can only conclude that there is something different with the new HBOOT 2.02.0002, that is probably why it is working differently.
[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:
OK, so I have now successfully reinstalled CM 7.2, which would be a properly rooted ROM.

So we have a rooted ROM, and HBOOT 2.02 S-ON.

When I try the downgrade process, the runme.cmd script is now hanging on 'Correcting permissions'. I left it for half an hour or so, and it's stuck. Nothing happening.
[HTC Incredible S] naathaanb96:

[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:

[HTC Incredible S] jcr67:

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheKid1:
Ok first off, I've rooted my Tmobile lg g2x phone so just wanted to throw that out there so you guys know I'm somewhat capable of this since these directions seem far less advanced than that of rooting a smartphone. This is what I exactly did so far so you know where i'm at.

1) I read this: http://quinxy.com/guides/how-to-pick-your-nook-color-operating-system-and-install-options/

After reading I've decided to go the SD card route and use gingerbread

2) I went here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1000957

3) I downloaded this: http://crimea.edu/~green/nook/generi...rd-v1.3.img.gz

It had the option to save or open so i clicked save and saved to my sd card.

Next I see a zip folder so i right clicked the "extract files here" tab and extracted the files

4) As requested I dismounted the sd card from my computer and reinserted it.

5) I went here: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=encore

I downloaded the first one dated 7/8/12

Again it asked to open or save file so I saved to sd card.

Next I see a zip folder so again, i right clicked the "extract files here" tab and extracted the files.

While extracting, it says, "there is a similar file that already exists". I just clicked the replace all button instead of rename.

NOTE: I dowloaded and extracted to sd card, not desktop(i'm assuming this is the way to do it)

6) As requested, I dismounted SD card and inserted into the Nook Color and turn it on. It just boots normal as if I didn't do anything.

So what did I miss?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DizzyDen:
When you download the generic***.zip file... save it to your computer... extract the zip file... use win32diskimager (if you use windows) or dd (if you use *nix) to write the generic**.img file to your uSD

When you save the CM7 and gapps zip files... put them on the root partition (its named "boot") and do not extract them (the installer uses zip files)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheKid1:
I don't get it. I downloaded the generic .zip file to desktop and I see the icon. there is no extract option.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] developersdevelopers:
Hi XDA,

I thought I'd create a thread to share a useful app (at least for myself) that I came across recently. I did not create this app, nor am I in any way affiliated with the creator.

It's called "Smart Cover".

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=smart.cover&hl=en

What it does is turn your screen off when it detects something blocking the proximity sensor. As soon as the obstruction is removed, your screen turns back on.

Why would this be useful? Well if you're concerned about your power button wearing out, using this app would definitely minimize your total number of power button actuations.

In my day-to-day usage over the past week or so, I've found it incredibly useful to have my phone turn on as soon as I take it out of my pocket, and shut off as soon as I put it back. Also, when at my desk I now just need to turn my phone face down.

I should note that if the screen times out by itself, or you turn your screen off manually (i.e. without interacting with the sensor), then to turn your screen back on, you just need to wave over the proximity sensor with your hand/finger. For those who are unaware, the proximity sensor on the Nexus S is directly above the screen, on the left.

This app provides the option to disable itself while in landscape mode, to avoid accidentally shutting off the screen while typing, playing games, watching movies, etc.

Of course, it's important to realize that since this app uses the prox. sensor constantly, it will have an effect on battery life. From my experiences though, it's drain has been minimal. Inspection of processor state with "CPU Spy" shows that the NS is still able to reach the Deep Sleep state with this app enabled.

Probably not everyone will enjoy this app however. The first day or so of using it was a bit tricky, as it forced me to use my device differently. I have since gotten used to it. Anyways, I recommend you check this app out.

EDIT:

After searching around there appear to be a number of similar apps on the Play Store, each with different options/features. Here are some others:

(I have not tried any of these yet).

Proximity Screen Off https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.itsme4ucz.screenoff&feature=search_result

Tap Tap App https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.maicas.android.wsleep&feature=related_apps#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEwOSwibmV0Lm1haWNhcy5hbmRyb2lkLndzbGVlcCJd

Smart Screen Off https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.android.smartscreenoffpro&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIml0LmFuZHJvaWQuc21hcnRzY3JlZW5vZmZwcm8iXQ..

This one looks interesting as it combines both the proximity sensor and light sensor. Battery drain would probably be higher though.

Feel free to share your experiences with any of these apps, or post if you discover better ones.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] cahir_cz:
Taptap seems to work best for me
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 309041291a:
Having this constantly running and using constant hardware I'd imagine this drains quite a bit of battery.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] mauiyob:
are you seeing any dramatic saving in battery? or does running the program kill batt life?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] developersdevelopers:
??

This app does not save any battery life.

At the end of each day, I find that the app uses about 5% of my battery.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Gearrion:
It's not a battery saver app. it's a feature app, I personal don't like hitting the power then slide to unlock. When i take it out of belt clip it turns on.

that's the feature.. worth 5% [imhp]. using Smart cover and working good.

Thinking only useful feature if you have a clip.

[Droid Pro General] ramiro77:
Hi there guys!

Yesterday I accidentally deleted an application system and android system isn´t working properly.

Today I flashed the verizon stock rom to see if that solves the problem (I've done before without any problem, first making a wipe data). But when the process is complete, the phone is stuck at bootscreen logo droid (not at M logo).

I rebooted the phone into recovery mode and did a wipe data. Now android starts, but I get the following two errors:

the process motorola.process.system has stopped unexpectedly. please try again.

the process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. please try again.

the process com.motorola.service.main has stopped unexpectedly. please try again.

Then the phone does nothing. I clicked on the Android but nothing happens. I´ve tried making wipe data lot of times but nothing happens. I´ve also tried to flash with 2.3.3 rom (I have 2.3.4) but nothing hapens too.

I can´t turn on debbuging usb mode because of this, so I can´t run a full wipe with ADB. Also, I don´t have any recovery mod or something like that.

Bootloader and stock recovery work both fine. So I think that this an exclusively software issue, but I don´t know how to resolve it.

There is any way to turn on the debbuging usb mode without using Android? Or there is any way to make a full wipe with ADB in this condition? Or what else could I try?

PD: Also tried to make an update of kernel and rom via SDcard, but I always get a signature error.
