I don't think you are allowed placeholder threads on XDA, so your thread may be closed by a mod.

I love MIUI though, so look forward to when it does arrive. Interested to know what will make this stand out from other MIUI ROMs :cool:
[Galaxy S III General] veyka:
Moved to general and closed, placeholder threads are not welcome in the development section or on XDA full stop.
[HTC One X] :
Hi,

Since the HTC One X doesn't have this type of section, this is for the XDA members who can crack a joke without the die hard unfun members getting upset 'coz their too serious. Other Forum Sections has this like the Samsung Galaxy SII so I thought we can open one up for our lovely community.

The rules are no swearing or inappropriate comments, or the moderator may end this thread.

Statements that you think are funny or good NEED to THANKED :)

So this thread is basically about things when 'you know when your rooted' tagline at the front and then your ending... Here's my example(s)

You Know When Your Rooted when you feel emotion when your newly flashed Rom has a little vibrate while booting up

*YKWYR when you have to flash boot.img to get your ROM working

*YKWYR when you have to boot in Bootloader to get to recovery.

Have Fun Bro's, looking forward to your taglines

*YKWYR - Abbreviation for You Know When Your Rooted
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
You know your rooted when you ask the CM Devs an ETA.

You know your rooted when your having a poo and your on XDA.

You know your rooted when you end up on Post 5. (Us Samsung followers should know what I'm on about :-))
[HTC One X] Nitin985:
you know you are rooted when you have the xda app on your homescreen
[HTC One X] dannysmith43:
You know your rooted when you send your HOX off for a warranty repair and get charged for it.
[HTC One X] wanzer:
You know you're rooted when someone tries to call you but you're unavailable, and when they try again after some minutes you answer "Oh yes, sorry, was on the recovery"

You know you're rooted when you lose an important SMS fullwiping for a fresh flash, and realize that only when you would have needed that SMS, days later
[HTC One X] atrako1973:
You know you re rooted ,when suddenly ,pushing power button doesn't wake your device ,and you now have to pull the battery but there's no access to the battery .......

Time to change a Rom

[HTC One X] gifton1:
You know you're rooted when you have three phone contracts
[HTC One X] Flozzo:
YKWYR when you run off from your friend to quickly flash a boot.img
[HTC One X] :
YKWYR when you have SU permissions for tweaks in settings

YKWYR when your when you tell your boss that you missed your business call 'coz it was a recovery break and he doesjt understand 'coz he has a BlackBerry
[HTC One X] Awt67:
you know when you are rooted when your heart misses several beats while your screen goes from the Htc quietly brilliant screen to the actual rom loading.

Htc One X quad core

Viper rom

Brick kernel

My role in life since rooting is to rub the power of Android into Iphone users faces
[HTC One X] M4Kval:
YKWYR when you tell your friends you will start the movie in 5 min, "I'm just going to flash a new rom". Halfway into to the movie you asks whats happend...

YKWYR when you say I'll be in bed in five minutes, next moring going to bed when others is getting up because you ran in to a little problem
[HTC One X] blackalice:
You know your're rooted when your phone goes from 60% to 0% and refuses to turn on, 5 minutes before you need to go to bed.

(that was a scary, scary night)

[TouchPad General] bouncyball:
Hello all,

What can you tell me about Chainfire3D for the TP? Is it worth getting the PRO? Also - I've read on other forums that you can get plugins for it. Which ones would you recommend for the TP?

Mainly want to run emulators on it as best as I can.

Thanks
[TouchPad General] nikos5800:
Chainfire its not for you;)

You don't need chainfire to run emulators
[TouchPad General] bouncyball:
What's it used for mainly then? Can you make the games run quicker? I've overclocked it to 1.8ghz using CPU Master but thats all I've done.

Seems the SNES emulator seems a little choppy.##

EDIT - What do all 3 plugins do? I've got them installed, just unsure which one to use when.
[TouchPad General] nikos5800:
chainfire we used when we want run tegra and powervr games

If you have download tegra game (apk)then choose tegra plugin from chainfire
[TouchPad General] bouncyball:
Thanks for the reply. I have the powervr plugin, nvidia and qualcom ones. Can you get more? So no plugin will make a difference to emulators running better?

Thanks for your help
[TouchPad General] nikos5800:
No you can't get more plugin,

For emulators the default settings its the best ;)
[TouchPad General] bouncyball:
What's the tegra plugin mate? Would you also recommend the pro upgrade too?
[TouchPad General] nikos5800:
Tegra plugin allow you to play tegra games on non tegra device e.g touchpad

I don't know I am happy with free version:D
[TouchPad General] Divine_Madcat:
Frankly, no offense, but if you have no idea what it does (which is sad, because research about it is so easy its not even funny), you don't need it. Best advice, stop messing with it before you have bigger problems to worry about...
[TouchPad General] toyface:
Of course if the OP hasnt taken the time to look up on these things then he shouldn't be messing.

A suggestion on a SNES emulator, you could try Snes9x just Google it that works well
[TouchPad General] bouncyball:
Thanks for the replies.

After doing a bit of reading about it, some thing are clearer now.

Got FPse off the market place, running really well, apart from the SELECT button don't seem to function but the rest of the buttons are fine. Any suggestions?

SNesoid is still running a little choppy, even with playing with Chainfire3D and installing the Qualcomm pluggin. I will give snes9x a go.

Are there any settings in ;

N64oid

FPse

To make games run better or shall I just stick to default?

Thanks again
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The-Droidster:
Below I'm mentioning a few points that I have tried to understand in the past 2 days.....Please note these are just assumptions of my understanding...I might be wrong....Plz cement my understanding by just saying either true or false....You may correct the wrong assumptions...no force

1. Users with unlocked bootloaders and the ability to boot into the bootloader (HTC) can do without a custom recovery...as they can do all that we do through CWM using the fastboot commands through cmd. (This point is clarified a bit from ur above post. Bootloader/fastboot mode can only replace a few features of CWM not all....CWM gives more advanced features. )

2. Samsung users have unlocked bootloaders but cannot boot into it so cannot use fastboot commands. They need to flash CWM through ODIN by entering download mode.

3. Download mode exclusive to samsung.

4. fastboot commands can be used with locked bootloaders.

5. The boot.img is an image of the boot partition and same goes for recovery.img.

6. boot.img contains the kernel and the ramdisk..so the bootloader location first loads this partition into main memory and the kernel then loads the OS and other stuff.

7. HTC devices have access to bootloader (HBOOT) ie they can boot into the bootloader. From there they can use fastboot commands to direct the bootloader to boot into recovery mode....what this does is directs the bootloader to load the recovery partition into memory instead of the boot partition.

8. Samsung users cannot directly address the bootloader as they cannot boot into the bootloader and hence cannot use fastboot commands. The key combinations (Volume up + ok + Power) that sammy users use to get into recovery are directions to the bootloader to load the recovery partition instead of the boot partition.

9. On rooted phones, we can use apps to do the same thing from within the phone ie we are using apps with root access to instruct the bootloader to take us into recovery instead of using key combinations at boot.

10. Even htc users can do so apart from the ability to directly instruct the bootloader by booting into it.

Your help will be greatly appreciated

Note : Samsung here refers to mostly S2 as I know that nexus users can boot into the bootloader.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lfgomez:
During the weekend, I was testing few things in the webtop using Debian packages and I needed to use my backup image (I did it using dd) to restore the Webtop partition (/dev/block/webtop). The first time I used my backup, everything went fine and the Webtop was restored. But then I understand my mistake in the first trial and tryed install gcc again causing another brake in webtop. After that I restored one more time, but it stopped working.

From the point of view of the Linux system, it seens the problem is that it can't mount correctly the partitions. A df give me:

Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on

rootfs 1.3G 724.6M 587.0M 55% /

tmpfs 1.3G 724.6M 587.0M 55% /dev

df: /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure: No such file or directory

df: /mnt/sdcard: No such file or directory

df: /mnt/asec/com.quoord.tapatalkxda.activity-1: No such file or directory

And when I mkdir /mnt/secure/ or /mnt/sdcard/ it automaticly mounts /dev/block/webtop on it.

I can't even see any block device inside the webtop. A ls /dev/ gives me:

agpgart kmem midi1 ram1 ram9 stdout

audio loop0 midi2 ram10 random tty

audio1 loop1 midi3 ram11 rmidi0 tty0

audio2 loop2 mixer ram12 rmidi1 tty1

dsp3 midi00 ptmx ram5 smpte3 tty9

fd midi01 pts ram6 sndstat urandom

full midi02 ram ram7 stderr xconsole

fuse midi03 ram0 ram8 stdin zero

And I can't mount any loop device.

In the Android part, everything looks fine.

Anyone have any idea?

Thank you very much!

Cheers,

Luis.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Well, we will need more information before we can be of much help.

1) How were you able install gcc? Did you use my webtop hack, so that you can install using synaptic?

2) Were are you installing these deb packages from?

3) Are you sure you edited ONLY parts in the webtop partition and not the android filesystem? Both of them run a form of linux, and can be confused very easily if you are in the wrong directory, such as /etc and not /osh/etc.

4) Have you tried to flash just the webtop image from the fxz?

This is a good place to start the questions, so that we can be of more help here. Once you answer the above, I will know which way to go from here, hopefully.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lfgomez:
Thank you very much for your repply!

So,

1) I was not abble to install gcc from the repositories (from Ubuntu Maverick one). I always get an error installing the libc6. After I tracked the error to readlink it almost worked, I was only getting a error to move a file. But then I gave up and decided to wait for my sdcard arrive.

2) From the repositories. I tried the first time using Debian Squeeze repository and, after that, using Ubuntu Maverick one. I didn't use your hack because I was trying to learn what exactly brake compability with moto's packages.

3) That's a excelent question! In first place I really thought I was changing only the /osh partition, but I saw today that the /etc/ is actualy /osh/etc even for Android. So I changed things for Android too.

But in principle, this partition was restored when I dd it back to my backup.

4) No. Actualy I was looking for a FXZ image to do this. The only one I found Online was this: InlineFlashing_edison_5.5.175.16_cfc_p3_APBP_CID285.zip in Filefactory site, but I could not Download it yet due site limitations.

Thank you very much!

Cheers,

Luis.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Ok, there are a few issues here.

1) try to restore the webtop image from the fxz. Go and grab the correct version of the fxz from here:

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/list.php

Then unzip and cd into the directory and, make sure you have the moto-fastboot command, and that adb works:

Motofastboot:

32bit for windows:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/45576654/moto-fastboot-win32.zip

put it somwhere in your path and open a command line and cd into the directory where you unzipped the fxz and run the following, this will take a bit of time to complete, once started (about 10 min):

adb reboot bootloader
moto-fastboot flash webtop grfs.img
moto-fastboot reboot

2) Now go run my hack, once you have your SDcard, the issue you ran into is that the webtop instance had MACLs and FACLs inplace, and any changes you make to ANY files can have a BAD effect. That is why my hack exists.

My webtop hack:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1375042
[Motorola Atrix 2] lfgomez:
Thank you very much!

I'm downloading now the image! I will restore it using your guide.

I will wait my SDCard to play more freely with the Webtop!

Again, thank you very much!

Cheers,

Luis.

Still broken webtop

Hi,

I tried to unlock the webtop, but I broken it.

Now I try to flash back the webtop, but I get following messages:

C:\Program Files\sdk\platform-tools>moto-fastboot flash webtop grfs.img

load_file: could not allocate 1400635392 bytes

error: cannot load 'grfs.img'

Seems to me that the webtop partition is to small for grfs.img (only 1GB space)

At the moment even HDMI out from my ATRIX2 do not show any response. :crying:

I tryed the webtop image from

InlineFlashing_edison_5.5.175.25_cfc_p3_APBP.xml.zip

and

Returntostock2.3.5script.zip (edison-user 2.3.5 5.5.1-175_EDFFW1-16 5.51.175.16)

Both with the same error:

Invalid sparse file format at header magi

Perhaps both version should be wrong? Where can I find the right one?
[Motorola Atrix 2] florescu:
I was able to flash webtop via RDS light 6.0 using following script in InlineFlashing_edison_5.5.175.25_cfc_p3_APBP.xml and ndp.xml

It seems flashing without any error message.

But it sill not working ... no HDMI signal ... :confused:
[Motorola Atrix 2] florescu:
After all I have to use the "Returntostock2.3.5script.zip" and reinstall my "MERetail-MEARET-55.28.37.zip" ROM and all apps.

Now webtop works and I will do a backup BEFORE I will try webtop2sd again ... :eek:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m3doc:
My HTC EVO is still running 2.2 Baseband ver. 2.15.00.11.19. It's rooted with CM. I've avoided updating to the latest version of Android because I didn't want to lose root. However I think it's time to update. I'm concerned that once I update I can't put the genie back in the bottle. Would someone be kind enough to walk me through the process so I can update to the latest "rootable" version of Android and how to "reroot" (if needed) after the update?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XenonV:
just install the latest update . 2.3.5 then click link below in my sig to root
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tayl428:
no problem

Just go get the update as a custom rom and load it. You can also find the updated radios out there and flash them too.

JB stock browser is smoother and faster than chrome right now

What do you guys think?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leerpsp:
With me I have jeilly bean on my Verizon and the stock web browser is slow but Google chrome is way faster
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] puffycow:
I have JB on my GNex. I find Chrome slow to start but then faster overall when using it. I also give it a plus for it being able to look like my Desktop as far as Bookmarks go.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] carloscarvalho:
my chrome open instantly.... and i think chrome is faster then stock. Dont know for sure cause i never use him, but i open some pages here to see and i dont see any significant difference...

But i love chrome, i have all my info in my notebook and phone, thats great :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackhand1001:
I've always preferred the stock browser even in ics
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jauhari:
So which one better? Stock Browser or Chrome?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
better is the one that YOU enjoy using the most
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvoRocker:
Try for yourself and find out. I prefer Chrome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spitefulrain:
I like chrome better personally. It does what I need it to, seemingly faster (to me at least)

Slight off topic, whats up with chrome and the stock android browser? Aren't they both developed by Google? Or is it like, Chrome is the Google browser ported to android, and the stock one is the one that the Android team specifically works on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FabricioGS:
Honestly I don't understand why they are keeping both at the same time.. now that Chrome is stable (enough) and has integration with other devices tabs and bookmarks... I don't see why use the stock browser anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akusokuzan:
Stock browser supports flash. Pretty sure chrome doesnt
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wind784:
I use chrome mostly I just wish they would add quick controls from the stock browser to chrome, I'm a big fan of that wheel lol!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] str8killinya:
I love chrome using it on my galaxy nexus as well have never even opened stock browser since chrome came out
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
Now that chrome is almost stable,i'm using it over the stock

chrome--like the animations,UI,velocity to opens tabs\sites,global rendering and the ability to connect\sync same google accounts on phones,pc's,tablets etc..with so easy

dislike micro-lags in page's scrolling,more than with stock browser and no flash support (that's why i sometimes surfin' web with stock browser,a good compromise now on JB)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackout23:
I'm a chrome fanboy usually and installing chrome was the first thing I did on my nexus never really look at stock browser. Now I browsed through the same set of sites first on chrome and after that on stock browser. It seems like stock is a little bit better with reloading pieces of the page when you zoom in and out a lot and scroll to areas where you haven't been before. Stock to me seems to react a bit faster. Maybe because it got an overhaul with Jelly Bean to and now it's JB optimized. Maybe this will change with future versions of Chrome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubomime:
Honestly I thought Chrome was the stock browser for jb. Pete's nightlies come with Chrome only.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cwhitney24:
the stock browser syncs all my bookmarks with chrome on the laptop and vice versa so stock browser works perfectly good me.

sent from my Galaxy Nexus running official Jelly Bean!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msedek:
stock rocks the hell out of chrome..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
I honestly hate Chrome on Android, love the desktop version.

The mobile version takes up way too much memory, sucks battery from my experimenting and just overall seems like a rushed product.

The JB stock browser was pleasant to use but it's going to take one hell of a browser to get me off of Dolphin HD.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] apratomo:
I really like stock browser, but starts in jb i noticed that browser sync always gives me error. I think that's a hint from Google to move to chrome :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] peachpuff:
If chrome had quick controls like the stock browser i'd use it, too bad it doesn't.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Yuhfhrh:
+1 Also the ability to always request desktop sites
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
Only thing I like better about Chrome is that it syncs open tabs and bookmarks from desktop Chrome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Slukefter:
Chrome fan boy here. I might try out stock again though. I really miss the ability to open multiple tabs i chrome, directly from my Google Search app-searches. Stock doesn't do this either, right?

Sendt fra min Galaxy Nexus med Tapatalk2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] muyoso:
Stock browser is clearly smoother for me when compared to Chrome. Scrolling and zooming in and out of pages is clearly more optimized in the stock browser. Chrome has more features, but until it gets to the stock browsers level of polish I choose not to use it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Chrome is proprietary, so probably better (I know, open source is good and all, but 'tricks of the trade') are exposed. I personally use Opera Mobile as it provides the best experience for non-mobile sites.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luffyp:
I think stock browser is a bit faster and smoother than Chrome. But switching between tabs in stock is not as convenient as Chrome, especially in Chrome you can switch to the nearby tabs by swiping from the edges. That's a killer feature for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leppo:
That happened to me in ICS as well...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bayint Naung:
I'd to see them integrate features from both browsers.

chrome tabs switching is better than stock.(for me)

stock full screen browsing is good.( chrome always displays URL bar)

Quick control (optionally enable) from stock.

For me, stock seems to be faster. chrome sometimes lag in scrolling.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Drzfr3shboialex:
I prefer stock, I was dying for chrome. Stock has flash support even on jelly bean, and its faster (for me).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kaninabu:
Have been using the stock browser since ICS (CM9), and it is even greater now in JB. I can't see any reason to install another browser.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
I prefer Stock Browser... looks a lot better and has the "Holo" theme to it whereas Chrome is white/grayish which will consume more battery life on the phone anyways.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moe6:
Stock is definitely faster but not by too much. Using Chrome on my desktop means I really love Chrome on my gnex even if I have to suffer a little bit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mssam:
Chrome mostly over here. Seems faster and has a better ui. I only use stock if a page doesn't load right in chrome...
