GSM unlocked Nexus FTW. Got rid of my unlimited data and now I never have to worry if im going to be able to get the next Nexus. As far as you guys paying $30 a month, I didn't go with a pre paid service simply because I need to use my internet, I can't be worrying about straight talk telling me not to stream videos. Im im at&t's 5GB data plan which comes out to $42 a month with my discount.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spiritcrusher33:
30 dollar T-Mobile plan has 5 gigs of hspa data.. but I don't stream anything. Rather just listen to my own music.. lol use maybe 800 mb a month. And don't really call anyone so the 100 mins a month works for me. Only suck at my house.no signal.. but use my wifi and whatapp if people need me lol :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] subxero123:
exactly, sales aren't going so well for the nexus, Droid razr maxxx > nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragn4rce:
Here is why they HAD to drop the price.

1. The S III is out and beats the Nexus in almost every Arena.

2. It's starting to be dated.

3. The one on the Play Store is cheap also.

4. They need to give a tug.

5. Better then $300.

6. Why do u care about this??? It's good. More ppl will buy the Verizon Nexus.

And now here is my question.

The one on Google Play is $350. That is half the price when it was first released.

So are u gonna say Google is treating there pride and joy like garbage Cuz it's the cheapest thing u can get off contract???

HTC Sensation XL ICS is terrible - I want to downgrade it to gingerbread and wanted to know how. A step to step guide.

Yeah, there are some backwards in ICS. But why do you want to downgrade exactly? Maybe there is a better solution for your problem.

Was curious, that's all.. One more thing, most of the time (that's almost 9 out of 10 times) during a reboot, the phone turns on just before the best part of the animation comes up.. If there anyway to prevent that by reducing the no of pics in the zip file or something alike..

Ok then, I'll definately need a beta tester because I don't have a bravoc. Hopefully I'll pm you tonight ;)
[Desire Android Development] AlxMAX:
Does this recovery use any of the networking features of the CyanogenMod kernel? I've reduced the size of recovery.img from 3.5 to 2.9 MB by disabling many of the networking features in the kernel and using LZMA for the ramdisk compression. For the kernel features, I have used 90 % of the 4ext Touchcovery kernel configuration. Does this recovery know to align the partitions when creating them?
[Desire Android Development] fire_kid2003:
THis look awesome

Thankx
[Desire Android Development] guy_smiley:
Has anyone found any themes for this recovery for our Desire's resolution? Doesn't appear to be much around.
[Desire Android Development] island3r:
You reduced the size of TWRP or the stock CWM recovery? I don't see why the recovery needs to be any smaller, since that doesn't make any difference to the end user.

Yes the created partitions are aligned automatically.
[Desire Android Development] island3r:
Here are two themes that are compatible:

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/25762-480x800-21-icscyan-system-style-theme/

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/23782-480x80021-ice-cream-sandwich/

There are many other themes as well but they do not support 480x800 so they need some tinkering. I'll look into it when I have some free time.
[Desire Android Development] AlxMAX:
Since the topic was dedicated to TWRP, I have meant the size of TWRP.

That's true, but it does matter to the developers since it might allow adding more features. The recovery partition is limited in size after all!
[Desire Android Development] island3r:
From that perspective yes you are right. From what I understand a this moment future versions are most likely going to be bugfixes. So space isn't going to be a problem in the near future. However what you did was very clever. Did you use lzma for compression?
[Desire Android Development] AlxMAX:
Yes, I used LZMA for the ramdisk compression! :)

Following the same problem on both my smartphone HTC Desire and Samsung Galaxy S Plus.

The problem I have described it in this and in this post.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
A bit off topic, but during my journey in trying to get twrp to work i managed to compile the latest version of clockworkmod touch (6.0.3.5). Its booted and touch seems to work, but i havent tried actually using any options as im a bit busy and have no time to test out wiping, flashing, backing up, etc...

If anyone is interested in testing this send me a pm and ill give it to you :)

Edit: Heres a pic:
[Desire Android Development] Niakoi:
Is have any peculiarity on installation, if I have installed "4EXT Recovery Touch"? Is necessary to uninstall 4ext or any else?
[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
I appreciate your contribution to the development of software.

You do a lot of good things, but ...

... CWM is limited to a few functions.

Best of TWRP is that it allows you to use shell (busybox commands in Terminal Command).

This allows you to do almost everything by yourself, and not just on what buttons allow.

[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
On 2.6.0.0 ported from drewis I can't read partition info. If I click center button it shows 'updating partition info' but nothing appear. Has someone else got this bug?
[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
This is not a bug.

This is a message that indicates that TWRP read the partition.

In version 2.3.1.1 the message is as follows

Updating partition details ...

You can enter in TWRP 2.3.1.1 in Terminal Command:

iostat

and see that the partitions are mounted.

TWRP 2.3.1.1 created by island3r contains a /sbin/busybox v1.20.2-cm7 bionic (2012-07-17 15:18 +0200).

[Desire Android Development] Niakoi:
TWRP says "error" when I try to install 4ext recovery.zip (and almost all other *.zip).

Incorrect recovered own backup - all installed applications missing, shortcuts remains only. Unable to install Gapps - error.

When i change hboot from stock to cm7-r2 - "unable to mount system"
[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
I suppose You can still be very busy or there are other more important things.

.

You probably know that it is an improved version of TWRP 2.6.0.1.

.

For the users Bravo, thank You for the present, very stable version, and thank You in advance for the preparation :) of the next version of TWRP.

[Desire Android Development] Gianni:
i have 2.7.0.0

but i cant see any keyboard, maybe busybox isnot installed on thi sterminal
[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
So write in the thread TWRP Touch Recovery 2.7.1.0

BusyBox is a part of TWRP and does not need to be installed.

The terminal operates for sure.

Command also operate at 100%.

In versions 2.7.0.0 and 2.7.0.1 of [MENTION=4883664]Chromium[/MENTION], many commands it does not work properly.

Ok, I tried trickdroids TMOUS rom and all is good except I can't get volwake to work and some of the tweaks in the tweak app wont stick. I flashed the 3 required mods in the tweak package in CWM but still nothing.

Tried leedroids and energy roms (euro based) and for some reason when I try and batch restore an app in titanium backup it freezes and sticks on 0% (trickdroids works fine) (superuser updated binaries)

I also tried flashing coredroids mods, gives me a blank statusbar on top for trickdroids (confirmed working) but works fine on leedroids and energy.

I'm flashing the boot.img for each rom. I even tried TWRP and get the same results. For now I'll stick with trickdroids as most of the mods I want are setup but I can't figure this out.

Did you go into the TrickDroid app and turn ON those features?

Also make sure you don't install more than one tweak that alter the framework.

[Asus Transformer TF700] h?2:
Hi everyone,

I am new here, I hope I get the xda-dev etiquette right, if not please tell me.

I am thinking about getting a TF700T as a replacement for my current (really old) notebook [I do normal computing on a desktop]. I will briefly describe what I had in mind and would be grateful for any comments on that. Please note that I am new to the whole Android thing, but that I am an experienced unix hacker, so I hope to learn the stuff quickly.

Why dualboot?

- it will replace a laptop

- for most things android will be the right thing, but in certain situations I want a full unix operating system

Which Android?

- I want a mod that has minimal amount of non-free software and good performance

- I don't mind if everything doesn't work perfectly right away and I don't mind twaeking around, but it should work somehow in the end

- I want encryption (is supposedly available in stock ICS already)

- I don't need any Google-Apps, I plan to use f-droid for applications

=> I thought about CM9 or CM10

Which second OS?

- Obviously GNU/Linux

- frequent updates and bleeding edge software

- no gimmicks, no useless stuff

=> Debian SID ARM?

What are your general thoughts on this?

Has anyone tried dual booting the TF700(t) yet? I read sth about an Ubuntu-dualboot on the TF300...

What are your thoughts on my choice of mod? Is it the right thing for my usecase?

What are your thoughts on my choice of Linux distribution? Did any of you see a native Debian ARM on a recent tablet?

Is there a recommended reading list for people who want to dive into this whole thing and not just follow step-by-step instructions to unlock/root/reflash their device? Like information about general boot-up process, partitioning etc

Thank you for your help!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jotokun:
What I could answer, is in bold.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
That was an extensive and quality answer. Nothing more to add, except that the OP is doing fine. Don't worry too much about etiquette; as long as the question posed is sincere, the harshest that could happen is your post being moved to another forum.

We don't bite (at least, not that hard). ;)

Welcome!
[Asus Transformer TF700] h?2:
Thank you very much for the complete answer! I wasn't aware that the bootloader is still locked, while itsunlocked on the other transformers... Have there been any announcements or rumors from ASUS on if/when the unlock tool will arrive for the Infinity?

Good to know :)

So no further reading hints? Maybe I should ask this one again in the general Android forums?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jotokun:
Not yet, but the other Transformer devices got theirs about a month after launch, so we'll probably see one around mid to late August.
[Asus Transformer TF700] goodintentions:
Please don't get a tablet to replace a notebook. If you must do so, please get an ipad instead so that when you come back to ***** about how your tablet doesn't feel like a laptop, it will be the iFans' problem not ours.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jotokun:
Its called realistic expectations. For lightweight tasks it should be just fine. Obviously you're not going to compile code, edit video or play Crysis on it. For web browsing and lightweight office documents, it'll be fine. You also missed the part where he said he wanted to dual-boot which would indeed make it more of a true laptop functionality wise.
[Asus Transformer TF700] goodintentions:
Even with dual boot, at best it will feel like a netbook. Ever since the transformer first came out, I've seen dozens of people whine about how their transformer didn't feel like a laptop. Heck, I saw this even when the ipad was the only tablet in town. New ipad users would whine and whine and whine that the ipad didn't feel like a laptop. They bought the tablet with the attitude of using it like a notebook, and then the huge disappointment hits.

Just wait and see the same OP come back a couple months later whining to us how no matter what he tried he couldn't get his infinity to act like a notebook. Like I said, I've seen this before.
[Asus Transformer TF700] polish_pat:
as the seconds OS, i'd love Windows 8...or RT
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jotokun:
Win8 wont ever run because its made for x86 cpus, but someone might be able to hack WinRT onto it. I'll admit it'll probably be cool if it happens... but the locked down environment would be a bit of a deal killer for me.
[Asus Transformer TF700] h?2:
A Netbook experience is good enough for me. Like I pointed out, I do have a Quadcore-8GB-RAM Desktop that I use to work productively. Right now I have a DualCore-1.6Ghz-32Bit-Notebook, for mobile use, which has poor battery life and takes long to go on and off, and it is slowly falling apart (flickering screen once in a while). I don't even mind the performance on the device, I worry more about weight, long boot-up time, 1h20min battery life.This device and use-case I hope to replace.

Do you really think I will be dissappointed by the Infinity?

To sum up, what is important to me (many +s => more important):

- mail, browsing, instant-messaging ( +++ )

- contacts and calender (with sync) ( +++ )

- use a terminal / ssh ( +++ )

- not having to worry about battery life and cables, fast on and off ( +++ )

- watching videos while lying on the sofa ( ++ )

- looking at fotos on a nice screen ( ++ )

- reading some pdf files ( ++ )

- hacking some latex or some other small bits of code (can be compiled remotely aswell) ( + )

I couldn't care less about Gaming, Flash-Applications and fancy interface animations (I hope I can deactivate those if they slow things down).

I thought the Transformers would be pretty good at this. Especially the foto-thing with the nice screen resolution and all the mobility stuff, because, well its a tablet with a keyboard ;)

I was mostly worried about the hackability of the device, i.e. being able to adapt the operating system to my workflow and such (thats why I am mostly interested in dualboot, because I know I can tweak a Debian to behave like I want it to). [1]

But if you guys think the transformer really is not good for my use cases, please tell me!

Thanks!

[1] The only slight worry I had about the hardware, is maybe the RAM not being to enough for regular Linux usage (really, considiring how inexpensive RAM is today, and how expensive the other stuff they put in, they could easily have put 2GB in the infinity and charged 10€ more).
