we need the first test wp8 rom to be leaked first .

no one has it now

so its hard to expriment with it

[HD7 General] backlashsid:
u shall be reported for duplicate and spam posts.
[HD7 General] explisiv:
hey keep hope alive lol. but to be completely honest I see it as very possible. the only limitation would be rom. because in reality windows 8 can run on a single processor so can wp8 it just has support for multiple processors. so we can run the hd7 drivers in compalitbity mode! :fingers-crossed:
[HD7 General] Magpir:
the difference between wp8 and wp7 is that wp8 has support for newer hardware. this means that wp8 can run on newer hardware but does not mean it cannot run on older hardware.
[HD7 General] backlashsid:
The reason Windows Phone 8 might be a possibility is because there have been evidence which show that Microsoft was testing Windows Phone 8 builds on the HD7. Lets wait and see what happens.
[HD7 General] Magpir:
yeah lets see what happens..afterall wp7 was ported over to the HD2 without a hitch
[HD7 General] 8joker8:
:pIf wp8 will not work on hd7 I will use the Android phones :rolleyes:
[HD7 General] rich_13:
As much as I love my HD7 (I still use it for xbox live games and music it's getting pretty long in the tooth now), I'm looking forward to seeing what HTC does with the new OS (WP8) and even Nokia with their PureView tech! The HD7 imo didn't get the same sort of community backing as the HD2 did, i'd almost bet that the HD2 has more chance of seeing a WP8 rom than the HD7 does, but i'm simply having a joke about. :angel:
[HD7 General] lordcanti86:
WP8 on the HD7 will most likely depend on whether or not NT kernel drivers can be written for it. This probably won't be until HTC roms get leaked.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus with an unlocked bootloader but no root. Is there any way for me to lock the bootloader WITHOUT using a USB cable.

My USB port is fried and I'm sending it to Samsung for a warranty

Thank you!

Does ADB wireless work with fastboot? I don't have it installed (or ADB for that matter) on my new PC. That's about the only thing I can think of.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DarkBanHammer:
Adb wireless would not work as the system has not been loaded yet alone the kernel. As there is no good old adb root using a exploit like on gingerbread it looks like your stuck. All you can do is hope for the best
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cshort0982:
Found this while I was doing some searching around. These are well known edits to the build.prop. Just thought it would be nice not to have to look all over the place. This is not my work I am just passing it along.

What is build.prop: The build.prop file is your android handset’s ‘ID card’.

- It tells applications the specifications of your device, so that apps can change their interface or function for your specific device.

- Editing the build.prop file is most commonly used for changing LCD density, build number and your device’s model or manufacturer.

- Changing your ‘fingerprint’, model or manufacturer can trick some apps in the market to become compatible with your device.

SOME OF THESE TWEAKS ARE CAUSING SOME ISSUES. ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP OF THE DEVICE. I WILL BE TESTING OUT ALL THE TWEAKS AND REMOVING THE ONES THAT ARE CAUSING THE ISSUES.

Now i gotta pull they build.prop off my phone and edit It :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tijayz:
I changed my build.prop -- specifically LCD density, and my phone stopped booting... <.<

had to odin-resurrect it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] p-slim:
I changed build prop for Google wallet and the same thing happened to me, had to do the same thing with Odin
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MBQ_:
nevermind this post.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tprouty:
yea so I put all these edits in.

and now I get the custom screen then just a black screen and my phone never boots.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
You need to put a disclaimer at the top, USE WITH EXTREME CAUTION!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ponyboy82:
Yikes. Is this from a VZW version, or international, or something else?

The performance ones sound good, but I'm a little afraid to even try them based on everyone else's experiences.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
Leave them alone, unless you know what you are playing with. I guess, you can mess around, but you may have to flash the ROM again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ponyboy82:
Yeah, I should clarify that I'm staying away from this. I was just curious. It seems like Samsung would've enabled all the HW acceleration they could.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
Not always, but unless you understand what you are changing, you will be doing trial and error. So make a change, if it works, great, if not flash your backup.

that is why I donate to the developers. It is hard work for some of these tweaks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] unboostedzc:
UNTIL SOMEONE ELSE CAN CONFIRM THIS, DO NOT USE THESE ON YOUR PHONE.

THESE DO NOT APPEAR TO BE USA VERIZON GALAXY SIII FRIENDLY OR EVEN IN ITS OPERABLE RANGE IN SOME CONDITIONS.

I.E.

LCD Density should be more like 300+,

VM Heap is 200+, dropping it down to 64m is unfathomable.

Max events per second are 300+, dropping to 150 will essentially cut your max in 1/2.

These would have probably worked well on my Bionic, Droid, Droid X but not S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cshort0982:
When I get some time tonight I will test out each one of these and see which ones cause a problem and will remove them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] unboostedzc:
yeah it looks like there's multiple settings for the max events per second. 500 is more reasonable than 150 to increase performance, but my tweaked build.prop from beans rom is 310 right now and smooth.

vm heap should be ~256m

video recording quality 12000000

again, these are for my device specifically so they could vary if you're on stock odexed/custom rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tijayz:
So if running stock or beans stripped rom, the hang up would happen and the phone wouldn't boot.

However, I have figured out a way to get the settings to stick..

I took the zip file from Beans 50GBDropbox Rom, and took build.prop in it and modified it. Once modified, I pushed it back into zip and reflashed the entire package. That made build.prop to stay and work the way I wanted it to. (ie. LCD density @ 240)..

So I don't think its a value limitation, I think it more of a "tamper check" mechanism of some sort.

Hey guys so I was reading around on xda and found a thread for the hd7 saying that it would be possible because in windows phone it now supports multi core processors and a lot of stuff that android phones have what do you guys think of this

Here's the original post

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] k4p741nkrunch:
Doesn't look like it's gonna happen man. The HD7 is a Windows 7 Phone which makes porting an OS like Win 8 somewhat simple. Getting Windows 8 on an Android device is going to take a deep knowledge of both systems and a lot of time. Hell, it might even be impossible, though on XDA I don't know if that word exists.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NJGSII:

HD7 is a Windows phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nman123:
Yeah I know but even though what's the thing stopping like there isn't any hardware things that's stopping us right its just that it takes a huge amount of time and knowledge
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Justjusten:
im pretty sure it would be illegal be cause of licensing concerns not that some of the brillant minded people couldnt do, I just think that that aspect would scare most people off
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
Windows phone has a set of hardware guidelines it has to meet. Only supports up to 512mb ram, 480x800 res, 1.5 single core cpu. Or at least that's what is was when I had mine. It world be really rough.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nman123:
yeah the reason i thjink its now possible is that on windows phone 8 all those guidelines are gone
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nickn850:
Legality and Drivers would probably be a good starting place of why it wouldnt be worth doing. Why would ANYONE waste their time doing something like this? Might as well just spend the money on a Win 8 Device. It would be like porting over IOS. Just no point.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
There are huge hardware issues. There are no drivers to make our hardware work with WP8, and would have to be made from scratch.

Plus, WP is closed source. So that greatly complicates the work needed to port it over. May also bring up some legal and licensing issues, as already mentioned.

The huge amount of effort and time is exactly what prevents WP OS being ported to any Android device. This questions gets asks for just about any Android device "can we port WP". Technically anything is "possible". But the huge amount of work means that nobody is going to be willing to port it over. Why go through all that work? It would be much easier to just buy a Windows Phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ZeroRilix:
Or use one if the launchers in the play store that can give you the look and feel of wp.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] PeartFan40:
In addition to the other hardware requirements, WP also requires a dedicated hardware camera button. I don't see WP coming to the One X.

Hi,

now i am going to find some extenal charger to charge up my battery..

Anyhow after charging what to do next ? can any one help !
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
First, you must understand the problem. So next you must read. There is no how to yet. Read whole "How to make custom sbf" and "Sbf flashing experience" dev thread to try some possibilities, or go for warranty replacement.

There was probably error when applying patches with OTA, because of root or deleted app, or something like that.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Varekai:
Was wondering if there is any way to get a manual focus ability like a touch slider. Every time I try to take a close up of something, like my leachie or a spider outside, even on macro setting, will focus on the object perfectly, then unfocus it. I try tapping on the object that I want focused, but same thing. Unfocused, focuses, then unfocus before it takes the pic. It is very irritating.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gidkid:
I've had that same problem. If you take the picture really quickly, as soon as you hear the camera focus, it will sometimes take the photo without unfocusing. Also, if you move back a couple of inches and just zoom in, it tends to stay focused better. Other than that, I can't think of any workarounds, and would be glad to hear if someone else had some thoughts.

I wonder if it's a software issue - maybe try a different camera app from the Play Store and see if it can stay focused up close.

[Vibrant General] oka1:
To all in this Forum...... The Forum has been Running Smooth and the Members in this forum have been extremely civil and helpful to each other......

WE Moderators really do notice and thank you all for being such a great group.

Going forward........ FYI The Vibrant is one of the few older devices that gets to sport ICS on it... it still is a great device.

Jelly Bean is just popping out now and I have talked with some of the devs, and they think it can and will make it to the Vibrant.... Soooo . . . that Original Galaxy Phone is still got some GET-UP still in it......

But, , , Do not expect for at least a month ... and to that please do not post a bunch of ETA threads as I will have to delete them a spam... Just be patient and realize how many other phones who do not have ICS yet......

Thanks All, ~~ oka1
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Do you know when JB is coming out?

Just kidding, understood.
[Vibrant General] oka1:
To answer that question, The framework is very different and alot of things have changed. 1st they have to figure how to make the new framework fit older platform, then figure if memory size might be an issue.... and so on and so on...... Then when they got it right, then I would guess the Vibrant will be way down the priority list. That's the answer as good as it gets. :cyclops::p:cyclops:
[Vibrant General] Woody:
I am out of thanks for the day on my tablet (I'll have to hop on my phone/tapatalk and hit you up) but thank you very much for posting this.

We are all excited for JB but I have to agree with Oka1, there are still

very few devices

running ICS let alone ports of Jelly Bean. In the RC forums, there are so many users who are still on Gingerbread and a few who are on Froyo with no hope at all from their hardware, manufactures or dev teams.

The Vibe is almost 2 years old and still blows the doors off many other devices. It is so easy to use, the bootloaders are unlocked and it has External_SD and removable battery (#noGNex or HTC ONE X/S) . It is because of these but also many other reasons that we are able to get working Gingerbread, ICS and now Jelly Bean ROMs for a device that was officially abandoned at Eclair and only got Froyo through a grassroots Twitter campaign.

Viva la Vibrant!!!
[Vibrant General] eksasol:
I wouldn't worry too much about JellyBean, since Cyanogen and AOKP supports the Vibrant.

The more expensive the devices, the more elitist the fanboys become. So maybe here, but less at SIII and Nexus section.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chico1983:
Can some please give a knowledgeable answer on what is needed and not needed to upgrade the radios. Does S-ON or S-OFF is needed or can it just be done with root and unlocked. Read many articles/posts but everyone just keeps contradicting each other. Please provide steps so everyone stops asking questions or making comments that are not correct, thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
need to be s-off to flash radio's..... just copy the file to the root of your sdcard reneme it to just PJ75IMG Them flash it via bootloader it will ask if u want to update then press volume up to do so.. after its done reboot and your golden.. ohh and after it boots up delete the file off your sdcard.. if u dont it your bootloader will find it everytime and try and update again.. so just delete it..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chazybaz13:
I flashed the radio just fine without s-off in recovery....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chico1983:
Thank you. I will try this today using both methods to see what works. Will report back with findings.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
you CAN flash radios with s-on through recovery, if you want everything else you need to be s-off. there is a thread labeled radios that tells you this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kcarpenter:
You can flash the radio, but the PRI won't be written.

Best just to flash the new firmware through bootloader if you can still get S-off.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chico1983:
the above post is correct. Download the Radio Zip and place it in your SD card. install using TWRP.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] void4ever:
I'm brand new to HTC devices so I'm unsure if the dialer is sense or if this is a ICS dialer were dealing with. (My old phone was a Droidx, so my exp is with blur and asop 2.3 from liberty).

Either way though i seem to have come across an interesting "bug" or at least unusual behavior.

I've noticed on almost every other call, weather it's incoming or outgoing, the MOMENT you dial/answer the screen goes dark. Now i can press the power button to wake it up again and it will stay on for exactly 5 seconds before going dark again. If i flip on speaker phone the screen will stay on, however the moment i turn off speaker phone it goes dark again.

Whats really annoying is if i go back to the home screen it still goes dark after 5 seconds but now when i wake it up it's at the lock screen. If i try to unlock it the moment i touch the screen it goes dark. No matter where i touch the screen the phone is now perma locked until the call is finished.

Now like i said this happens every other call so far in the 6 times I've tested this, which i thought was really odd. The other times the screen stays on and acts completely normal no matter what i do while a call is active. Fresh reboot makes no difference. I haven't done a factory reset yet as I'm trying avoid that.

What i have done so far is unlocked the bootloader, Flashed recovery, and the root from con247's thread in the dev section. I don't think that has anything to do with it though since i noticed the screen going black during a call before i started messing with bootloaders/recovery/root. I just didn't test it as well before doing those things cuz i didn't think anything of it.

Is anyone else seeing this behavior and does anyone have any suggestions?

Void4ever
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] blazingwolf:
Sounds like the proximity sensor is going wonky. You might try a factory reset and without installing anything else see if you get the same issue. Also, make sure that any programs you have installed are not affecting it for some reason.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] void4ever:
Just factory reset it, skipped setup completely and started making calls, same issue. You maybe right about the sensor though. The first call acted up like i explained. The second call the screen was staying on like i expected, but once i switched speaker phone off and then back on the screen shut off and started acting like call one again.

I just got this phone 6 hours ago :( i wonder how hard it will be to convince verizon there's a hardware fault. I guess i'd better unroot it and remove recovery so i can call in the morning.

Void4ever
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] void4ever:
I just wanted to make sure i understand this before i do it.

To remove the root i need to install the RUU for the phone, which i found at http://themikmik.com/showthread.php?13550-Asian-Shooter-goes-ICS-and-a-VZW-Fireball-RUU (second link i assume).

I haven't downloaded it yet, but it's an exe. Will it flash the phone via USB, or does it just extract something i can use recovery to flash with?

Once i get the root removed i just need to flash back the original recovery and i should be good to go right?

Void4ever
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] blazingwolf:
There are directions in the RUU that will explain all of the steps. You will connect your phone with the USB cable.

It shouldn't be to hard to convince them. Just show them the steps you did to reproduce the issue. Good luck.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] void4ever:
On the phone right now and the guy is setting up overnight sat delivery to my house. We are a fairly large business account so i'm glad they are going that extra mile.

Just to note I've noticed the sensor doesn't shut off after a call is complete. In fact it stayed on last night for around 6 hours before finally turning off. I did another test this morning and once again the sensor is stuck on, so good call. Thanks so much for your help, i never would have thought sensor, it seemed like a software issue to me!

Void4ever
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] blazingwolf:
No problem. Glad you got a new one coming. :)
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] void4ever:
