[Nexus 7 General] gijosh28:
I tried the four corners thing. It didn't work. Unfortunately there are no McDonalds or Starbucks near me. I only have these two networks to work with. I bough it to replace my Nook (CM7), which I use to watch episodes of TV shows. I bring the mSD card to work, and put episodes on it, then bring it back to the room and watch them till I fall asleep. With the Nexus I was intent on copying my episodes over through the ethernet cable by day, and taking it back to the room to watch them at night. I guess I'll have to keep watching my shows on my Nook. Sucks. New toy is useless.
[Nexus 7 General] gijosh28:
This would work. Unfortunately I can't connect anything wireless to this network. I might try to sneak this solution. This is the second to last resort. Thanks for the advice/idea!

I haven't seen any instructions on how to root the device prior to initializing it. Is it possible?

Thanks,

Josh

I take it u can't skip the sign in like on phones, if u have no way of getting on a wifi network, you can possibly try to kill the setup process via adb...its not really a google oversight, its 2012 WiFi networks are rather easy to find.
[Nexus 7 General] gijosh28:
I guess I'm just lucky enough to be where they aren't easy to find.
[Nexus 7 General] stezo2k:
I just tether from my phone :)
[Nexus 7 General] gijosh28:
I have no cell phone coverage here. Although I might be able to use my cell phone to connect to the wireless back at the room, use the cell phone web browser to log on, then tether it to my Nexus. That might work. I'll try that tonight.
[Nexus 7 General] V0odo0:
use a WIFI dongle to attach to your laptop. make it a hotspot using "connectify" software and connect your nexus to it. your laptop must have internet access.
[Nexus 7 General] xenon1024:
setup aside, how did you plan on managing files etc on the n7 long term without wifi?

Seems there are other products more suited to your needs if you aren't going to use any online or network features.

Samsung Galaxy SIII users can use the livestreams for free (30 days trial), but you can extend this trial period.

By selecting Discovery trial over-and-over again it adds an additional 30 days trial.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PhxkinMassacre:
I don't know what causes this but earlier my phone got stupid hot. To the point where it was uncomfortable to hold and when I opened up system tuner I realized that the CPU was at a toasty 155°F (forgot a screen cap cuz I was in freak mode haha) but then I looked up a little and noticed that out of the blue without any interaction on my part, the min clock speed was bumped up to a little over 1ghz. No clue how it happened. My phone was a reasonable temp all day before that and hadnt even opened system tuner till my phone was roasting so why the min clock changed I don't know but figured I'd share because I saw a while back a thread of people saying their evos went frying pan mode and had to be shut off to cool it.

Here a what I did (from what I recall) prior:

1.Had it sleeping in my pocket for an hour

2.Sent a few texts

3.Slept in my pocket a little while more

4.Turned on 3g and tethered for 10minutes (phone was still cool)

5.Turned off tether and 3g and threw my phone on the charger till it was 100%

6.Tethered again (had a 5out of 6 bar 3g signal) and within about 10min of tether with it off the charger the temps spiked as well did the clock speed? (Also for both tether sessions I only checked xda and engadget on my laptop, no videos)

If it happens again I'll take screen caps and see if I can pin point it. Anyone else have this happen to them?

P.s. I'm running flex 1.74 with kernel it comes with and none of those CPU offline/online mods. This happened 2 or 3 times since I got the phone in early june. 1time stock and idk what I ran the other times. Didn't notice the clock speed change till today tho.

**DISCUSS** haha
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HobbitCy:
Hi guys, so a bit of info first

So i bought my kindle fire overseas (Cyprus - where I live) - Amazon is not officially represented and i had a faulty screen that the retail didn't want to help me with as it was noticeably a factory flaw. After a heated debate they accepted it and replaced it with what i assume was a refurbished model.

At the time i was happy to have a kindle back. last night i noticed a scratch, small but annoying and i don't know how it got there as its never dropped and its always protected, i can only assume that it was there when they replaced it i just didnt see it as it only really shows when you have a white background.

they will not replace it again, so this is my question.

Is there a way for me to brick my kindle fire on purpose or permanently drain the batter so that it doesn't start up again.

I don't believe the tech guys are that savvy but you never know

PS I know this is mean and nasty but this retailer is really bad with its customer service and the service department in general.

at the time they were the only ones selling the Kindle Fire here.

Thanks for any info you may provide.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasanko:
Not quite permanent, but... You could kill a few partitions, including the bootloader.

So if they refuse to replace it again, you can at least get it working (though you'd have to crack open the case and do the USB pin shorting).
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HobbitCy:
Thanks Dasanko for the reply

quick question:

im guessing that killing the partition would cause it to give an error on boot,would this look/feel like a non user created error?

also if i go down that path any info on how to kill the partitions?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasanko:
It'll most likely get stuck on a black screen right away if you kill the bootloader.

For the rest, depending on what you wipe, it'll probably show the splash screen (bootloader) and then get stuck either there or on a black screen.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JimmyDeemo:
So I have finally got round to taking control of my Play. Unlocked my bootloader, rooted, applied DooMKernel v14 and now have Gin2JelllyBean rom.

I've already managed to squeeze a day more battery life thanks for SetCPU down clocking while the screen is off. Now id like to look at undervolting.

From what I read, there should be an undervolting option active in SetCPU but it's not there. I thought DooMKernel supported this, so firstly I just wanted to ask if there is anything I need to do to activate it or if might have gone wrong somewhere?

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leots:
I have SetCPU too and it doesn't let me change the voltages. I am using IncrediControl for changing them, and it works :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
OC/UV Beater2 v1.7, allows setting voltages in an init.d script, so there aren't any unnecessary services running on boot
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JimmyDeemo:
Thanks for the suggestions guys I will check them out.

Still confused why I can't use SetCPU though.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masters2150:
Be careful u dervolting, can actually decrease battery life. Never set undervolts to run at boot.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
Now how do you figure that
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exaexa:
i am using System Tuner Pro

all in one apps for CPU modding

but try SetExperia, its lightweight
[HTC Sensation] valefour:
Downloading aokp milestone 6 and wondering if anyone is running this and if so, any advice on what kernel works best?

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] onnira:
hey Maclaw where the is ROM/kernel for mini? u said u buy a galaxy mini today? 25 July 2012

We know we have TheWhisp & Rohan007 working for our device, but now, as what u promised, we must get what u promised.(official)

i got some thought that you just using TheWhisp & Rohan007? or is it you just crazy to get the title for the best Samsung Galaxy low-end devices developer?

How about MINI USER that DONATE to you until now or long time ago, and STILL waiting for the ROM, and the device for u to fix??

@Maclaw

THIS IS FOR OUR RIGHTS!

WE FIGHT FOR OUR RIGHTS!

@Maclaw, respect others rights, don't simply giving hopes to people and u just leave them,

lesson : don't promise or make it "official", if you know u can't make it real
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Macław:
TheWhisp is developing for Mini/Fit. We're supporting him. I don't think it's making sense to develop other ROM is he's there.

And which right? We planned to use every $ from donations for Mini, but in last 2 months I received 25$ only. I planned to use my own money, but for WHAT if TheWhisp is there. As I said, I'm supporting him, yesterday I fix'd browser on CM10 for Mini.

And I didn't received any donation for Mini from a looooooong, loooooong time...

And if you want to explain something, write to me first. If you think that's thanks to this topic I'll buy Mini, you're wrong. Why should I do this now?

Ok, I can buy Mini, but I won't develop something. It doesn't make sense to create two similar ROMs at the same time. TheWhisp is great dev and he have my full support, in words and in practic - I respect him.

And: MINI USERS WANTS RIGHTS... but Mini users can't help developer, when he says he want to help them...
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] onnira:
"How about MINI USER that DONATE to you until now or long time ago, and STILL waiting for the ROM, and the device for u to fix??"

so this means, u waiting for donation? you do have community right now after what u did, and u have the responsibilities towards them

it is same method for artist, if you willing to get fan, and u willing to be responsible towards them?innit?

and i know about TheWhisp, but if like that, there is no other ROM for each devices? one ROM for one device?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Macław:
I won't create copy of his ROM in 1:1 scale. Where's the sense?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] onnira:
i didnt ask you to buy, but asking for you responsibilities, thats all :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Vasishta Reddy:
I don't want to be against of you or anyone but why did you stop doing CM9 ,Where we have an incomplete cm9 rom and I heard you have the camera working then why don't you implement them and update the CM9.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TheWhisp:
Guys, this time Maclaw is right. If you want the kernel, I can try to continue Squadzone's work.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] onnira:
+1
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] musashihatred:
+1. its not logical to build another copy of the rom if one's already building it. and besides, maclaw is supporting Whisp now. give respect man. maclaw is not a robot to order around just because you liked to.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] lonestrider:
Hey, you talk about donation so much.

I think someone will donate to developer because that developer have already done something great. I think someone who give their money to the developer, should be give their money with whole-hearted, honest, sincere.

They should know that with donating, doesn't mean they 'buy' something, because the developers isn't selling anything.

It's true that Maclaw promise something that isn't good for himself, I think. I don't know what really happened. But creating a thread to him like this is too offensive, I think.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] domcale:
Maclaw removed his CM9 ROMs due to uncompliance with GPL license, which is good (not for us and the devs, but for Maclaw's understanding that he shouldn't play with those kind of things).

Current CM10 is using his kernel, and i will believe him about helping TheWhisp this time. A little bit of respect is needed now.

@Maclaw - just don't so the same thing all over again, leaving users with expectations and then dumping them away like nothing is just not right!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] onnira:
i 'm not the one,everyone else did felt the same

just don't be a pathetic because u wanna feel neutral

i just wanna know, whats the responsibilities towards mini user?that all.

and actually he should post something, maybe let the mini user know he didnt make it ( the rom or anything ) not just easily post,

something like, the rom will transfer to the other hand,that easy?

and maybe he can continue the cm9 for mini..

i dont want to argue or get fight, but just for the rights :)

that's what i mean, thank you :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] hsay:
+1 guys really it makes no sense in making the same rom again and again whats the use man you will have cm9 and also you will have aokp both are based on the same thing and as far as camera goes i agree with the others maclaw if you have working camera then please update but still even if maclaw promised mini it isnt compulsory for him to buy it he felt whisp is working on the same thing maybe he has a mini so whats the sense in wasting money and time on something that is just going to be the same thing under a different label
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] themountig:
What a load of Spam! Get this straight - Users of any mobile have only "rights" from their seller, manufacturer and service provider. You have No rights from developers on xda at all (even if you donate thousands of Euros, Dollars or Pounds). I'm shocked that a moderator has not stepped in yet to explain that as a member of xda you have absolutely no "rights" whatsoever.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] roofrider:
There is a misunderstanding here.

Donating upfront is not allowed. Maybe some did that, if so they are at loss.

Nothing can be done now.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] hp_vercetti:
+1 :)

TheWhisp and Maclaw working together?? Galaxy Mini will become the luckiest device in the world! I support both of you but ya, if Maclaw made a promise he should at least try to do something about it.. :fingers-crossed: But i dont care until and unless Maclaw is doing something for our Mini!

Thanx to both Maclaw And TheWhisp :good: Wish u good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] eagleeyetom:
Do you know what donation means? No? Let me explain that

So. In short - you can't demand something because you paid for that. In short this means, that you are freely give Macław and his team some money to use it for their own purpose.

Android wasn't involved for making money - it's Linux adapted to run on mobile devices. Linux is a GPL OS, so you are not paying a damn cent to receive anything. Android is the same. Don't exepect the developers to spend all their time to improve the OS. They have to earn some money too. Nothing is for free, especially food or flat.

Politics of companies is brutal - release the device, give one or max. two updates and pretend that this device is dead. That's normal - it's all about the money. Even biggest companies doesn't give a damn about their old devices/products.

You should appreciate that you have something more than plain GB. It took a lot of work to adapt all of the libs to run CM9/10.

You don't owe anything to Macław and he doesn't owe you anything as well.

I don't appreciate TeamICS politics, but I'm not the one to judge them. Developers are always welcome, especially here on XDA.

So please hide your grudge under the pillow and move on.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TheWhisp:
No. He just fixed the Browser issue. That's all, the rest of the work is done by me and Rohan007. He helps us, we help him.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kayzm:
I don't understand why you guys blaming Maclaw. Did you get fat when you do that, not :rolleyes:

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yackovsky:
Do it yourself then, go on, jog off :d
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] conantroutman:
Not sure where to start with this one.......

Donations. Nobody forces you to make them and they entitle you to nothing. I'll say that again.... THEY ENTITLE YOU TO NOTHING.

If you want something done that badly, as the guy above said, do it yourself.

As for starting a thread demanding something from a developer and whining about "your rights".... well, I can't really comment on that the way I would like to because as a moderator I'm supposed to maintain a degree of professionalism. So I'll just say this, don't do it again.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] makipsee:
for some reason after i flash a rom i will only get 1x and i have to go back to a stock rom to get 3g back. has anyone else had this problem?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gtuansdiamm:
Check your prls and modems
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] makipsee:
i have updated the prls and i was on the latest modem and it was still doing it. then i tried downgrading to LF9 modem with no change. im on the LG2 build.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Bizdady:
Which ROM? On Cm10 early builds I only showed 1x but if doing speed tests and looking at dbm signal output I was still getting 3g speeds.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] makipsee:
i first tried it on blazer ROM 1.5 then i seen there was an update so i tried 1.6 but got the same thing
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] makipsee:
i have also just tried it with Team VeNuM's blue themed rom and i have the same outcome
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jdogg836:
What kind of real speeds are you getting when you speed test? It's entirely possible that you truly only have 1x speeds in your area. Sprint has "strongly encouraged" Samsung and HTC to always show 3G in areas where there is supposedly 3G. Most custom ROMs have corrected this by showing actual speeds in their ROMs. So it could also be that you truly are only getting 1x and the stock ROM is falsely reporting 3G.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] makipsee:
ok well now that im home (i was away on vacation in the Poconos) i ran a speed test and got decent numbers this is the results of 3 tests i ran /ping- 92, 77, 76 /download kB/s- 214.6, 236.8, 152.5 /upload kB/s- 78.3, 77.8, 101.6. so i backed up, flashed Team VeNuM's rom and wiped cache but when the phone booted it showed 3g so maybe b/c i was in PA it might have been saying i was in 3g when i really wasnt proving what you were saying jdogg836. so heres the results of the speed test /ping- 121, 134, 206 /download kB/s- 89.1, 67, 64.4 /upload kB/s- 61.1, 28, 58.6 it's showing much slower speeds but im not sure why
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
Call sprint...lots of antennas are only around 60-70% right now....got to do with upgrading system from my understanding...also...upgrade your radio to LG8 and see what happens. :fingers-crossed:

but that big of a drop within minutes? yea im on the LF9 modem i downgraded from the LG2. are people having better luck with the LG8 from the LG2?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dtr145r:
Check to see if the time you flashed has the 1x/3g mod... stock Roms only ever show 3g even when they are on 1x..

You can also go into the market and download netmonitor which will tell you your true network type.

I'm almost willing to bet that's the problem.

I too live in pa and most northern parts only have 1x service.. just so you know.

Harrisburg/reading/Lebanon is where you start getting 3g.

Edit. Most of what I said was already explained. Didn't see jdoggs post.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
Personally I've has this problem since day 1 with this phone. On Airave it seems worse than being connected to towers for me. Sometimes mine goes from 3g to 1x to no data. Turning mobile data off and on usually fixes the issue. I've tried all radios, no difference, LG8 seems to keep connection longer.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dtr145r:
If you have the original airave it only has 1x.

The newer version the airvana has 3g coverage..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
I've had newer one since the day it came out, no problems with any other phone I've had, just s3. I believe the problem to be the phone, sprint, or my isp.

this message brought to you by my GalaxyS3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lost+found:
I have had modem issues since day one too, I got a new phone because of the poor signal and it's the same.

I tried all the radios this weekend and found no real gains with any. I saw the 1x indicator with the CM10 7/29 build and the AOKP ROM.

Stock based ROM all showed 3G, but it would make sense if they are lying, although I would see 1x in distant lands on my EVO.

I will try the speed test.

It's also worth noting that I have a friend with a stock HTC X one getting about the same signal as me, so it may well be that sprint is messed up here.
