[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] rfree2340:
I'm contemplating installing a custom rom on my HOX, the advantages are great (camera, speed, no bloatware)... but my phone suffers from the "random disconnect/airplane mode toggle fix" problem... I've talked to HTC and they said they are investigating it and looking into fixes, but I'm still not sure if it is a hardware or software issue, it only happens when I am in an area with very poor signal for an extended amount of time, which unfortunately happens to be most of my classes, and a couple places back home (though it hasn't happened for a couple of months).

I guess my main question is would it matter, for warranty purposes, if I were to root/unlock and install a custom rom? If it ends up being that the phone must be sent in for this issue, would it get rejected because of the tampered bootloader?

Does anyone have any direct experience with this?

Thanks for any input!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tehdef:
At any point have you tried to factory reset your phone? That may solve it. Otherwise you have an issue with the pins inside the phone not being aligned which no amount of software can fix.

Aside from that ATT is generally clueless when it comes to tampered devices, but HTC will know if you unlocked the boot loader and if they feel it was the reason for the issue they can deny you service as unlocking the phone clearly states that the warranty becomes void.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Not a direct experience, but you may find this useful anyway: if you read over at the international One X forum, HTC will still honor the warranty if the BL is unlocked (but no custom ROM ever installed), but users have had warranty service denied with a custom ROM flashed. This is even if the stock ROM is re-installed prior to sending in for service. Apparently, HTC has some way of knowing whether a custom ROM was ever flashed, even after returning to the stock ROM.

At least, this was being reported a couple months ago. I haven't kept up with the issue.

From what people are saying here, if you go through AT&T, they generally do not care about BL unlock whether its within the 30 day exchange period, or sending it in for the 1 year warranty. So you are likely much better off sending into AT&T and not HTC.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] rfree2340:
Awesome, thanks for the replies.. Yeah I'd be sending it to AT&T if it needed warranty replacement...

@tehdef, it's also widespread issue with connection, all three of the phones I've had have done the same thing... But yeah it would make sense if that were the case (not saying it isn't, just not sure) that software wouldn't fix it.
[HTC One S] randomnoob83:
which one do you think is better i had the kraken for my htc amaze and i loved it but this is a slim lite weight phone so im scared the kraken will add ALOT bulk and weight a little bulk isnt bad but nothing to drastic if anyone has the weight with the case on for bothe kraken and aegis please tell, im 14 so im not doing anything to bad that would cause harm to the phone but you never knw what do you think ?
[HTC One S] carlos16119:
I have the aegis : I personally love it . Not that bulky and feels good in the hand. Also it looks like it can protect the phone. I haven't put it to the test ( and don't want to) but I'm sure nothing will happen if its dropped or something
[HTC One S] randomnoob83:
thank you i've decided to get the aegis

************************THIS SCRIPT WILL NO LONGER EXIST BY ANY MEANS AS IT DID NOT WORK. IT WORKED IN THE BEGINNING, BUT WHEN THE COMMAND ( chmod 777 gfree ) CAME ALONG ADB WOULD NOT ALLOW IT. I'M REMOVING THE FILE FROM MEDIAFIRE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. BUT, IT CAN'T BRICK BECAUSE IT DOSEN'T EVEN BEGIN TO ROOT. : (

This script was made using windows command prompt.. So don't even attempt with Mac OS, unless you use Parallels or whatever.

EVEN THOUGH I MADE THIS SCRIPT TO MAKE PERM ROOTING WITH GFREE ALOT EASIER, EVEN MYSELF DOES NOT REALLY TRUST THIS SCRIPT ANYMORE.. I AM HIGHLY RECOMMENDING YOU USE THE VIDEO THAT GUIDED ME WITH THE MAKING OF THIS SCRIPT. EVEN THOUGH I DON'T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY IN YOUR GLACIER BEING BRICKED, I STILL DON'T WANT IT TO HAPPEN REGARDLESS. NEITHER DO YOU. PLEASE, DO YOURSELF AND I A FAVOR AND USE THE VIDEO. THANKS -- I just looked through it and suspect it to work, i coded it and typed it correctly so I have gained a little more trust into it.. please, post your outcome on this thread. Thanks, iN98-

I just made this as of July 30, 2012 21:09:56. With no help except a guide from this video

Even newer link.. : ) HIGH SPEED 1.1MB/s DOWNLOAD LINK

I haven't got to test it so if a problem shall fall, POST THEM ALL!

Oh and also, if you want me to make a script for you (especially with ADB involved) PM me, and i'll get you hooked up faster than Lizard Lick :D

I just noticed on the link that a exploit "virus" was found for android.. this is from GFree/SDK.. Not the script, the script is just a .bat file that runs from the Android SDK "Platform-Tools" folder. Don't be alarmed.**********

ALSO, THIS WAS A BLIND BUILD.. IF YOU BRICK IT'S NOT MY FAULT. I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY IN ERROR.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bas3balman:
Just a thought you might wanna put script in the title and put some more explanation in the OP just to make it clear what it is. I like the idea though. I hope it works for everyone. It would make everyone's lives easier. Good luck! :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] InvisibleNinja98:
I hope it works for everyone too, and yes I agree I need some more information! c:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] THEindian:
Awesome idea but you should probably make sure it completely works first because when you are rooting, often times, errors mean a freaking brick.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bas3balman:
True very true. Words of the wise :thumbup:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bartholomeuznight:
lemme get this straight, this is a windows script that allows you to S-off and perm root the glacier? if its so...very good job man, but how bout the diferences between the SEM04G and M4G2DE eMMC chips?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] estallings15:
Gfree works on both and the steps are the same, are they not?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jyo1:
Hi, is this script for rooting mytouch 4g with gingerbread OTA update installed? Does this avoid the need to downgrade to Froyo before rooting?

:)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] estallings15:
No.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] InvisibleNinja98:
You are completely true.. but, I have already done this (manually) before I made it, so I didn't think about going all the way back to 2.2.1 and turning my Security Flag back on and all of that.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] estallings15:
This made me lol.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] THEindian:
Although i don't really understand the 2nd part of that statement, there is a difference between doing something manually and using a script. Most of us here have used the gfree method so i maintain what i was saying and you REALLY should test this yourself. But hey, its not my phone that might become a brick.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] InvisibleNinja98:
I will be testing soon enough... and also, someone hit the thanks button and not on my OP does it say hit the thanks button, in the script after completion does it say do that so I'm thinking that someone has done it, and it works.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jebise101:
Looking for some headset type adapter that i can use and plug into my cassette adapter, like you know press once to pause, press twice to advance and three times to go back.

I have tried bluetooth/FM transmitters and they degrade the quality and have to much static, or maybe blutooth adapter that has a headphone jack.

Its a pain to control music while driving with all android devices I have owned, that requiring unlocking the screen and making sure to press the correct buttons etc.

Or maybe there is a car doc for the S3 that puts the phone in dock mode and keeps the screen on like a GPS?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] codemansGT:
You can buy an adapter that's mic used to turn an ordinary headphones into a wired headset. They normally have a button on them one press to pause 2 to skip etc. I bought one from shure awhile ago.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jebise101:
see my car is not fancy enough that it has a remote which if it did would solve all my problems. I think the best option here is to buy Car Home Ultra. Its 2 bucks and the trial actually works good and has built in media controls, so you don't need to navigate away from the screen.

This works out best coz i can buy a universal dock so all 3 drivers can use the dock and have the same function since they are all Android or at least until i can find a infuse car mount.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sbddude:
Here: http://www.i-luv.com/product_detail.asp?idx=1387

amazon sells it. You can also modify the resistors inside and get the volume buttons to work too.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] azian_advanced:
i'm not sure if you know but the S3 also has voice control if you're using the stock music app.

it only works well if there is zero cabin noise while driving. the 2nd mic is terrible when it comes to background noise suppression.

just turn on "Voice cmd for apps" under "Language and Input" in the Settings.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jebise101:
^ Thanks I know and have it enabled. I use it for my alarm and tried the music app as well. I find i have to yell at the phone especially to turn the dam alarm of in the morning.

@sbddude Will check out its exactly what i need. Still will get a cheap universal dock + Car Home Ultra.

I dropped my note on the first week, so now dont care much about scratching it further, lucky the screen was not scratched.... I just try not to scratch the pen tip, so it doesnt end up scratching the screen when i use it. and i only use a case for when im out and about - otherwise the note fills too thick.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
By local seller, you mean some tele operator, or some local shop?

Are you sure that shop(whatever it is) have a deal with official SE service center(or any service center which have deal with SE)?

Problem here is that between you and service is a shop. That way you can't test phone before you sign.

If that is service center(SE or deal with SE) go there and demand new phone(make sure it's still in a law to demand phone after 3 repair which failed), don't accept repair, if you are able, print out that law and go with it, also threaten them that you will contact department for customers, if you have something like that over there.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] bagniak:
My local seller is tele operator "play" which im pretty sure have all needed contracts so thats not the issue here. After 3rd time without repairs i did demand a new phone but "play" said they wont give me the new one because "regenersis" dont want to do expertise and as such they have no base to give me the new one(i could contact with someone with more power than my local salon i guess).

Regenersis service is 200km away from my place so going there is kinda out of option and even if i go there it would probably changed nothing. I thought about contacting my local department for customers but first i wanted to make sure this is in fact defective phone rather than just low quality one because most likely it will end in court :(. Thanks for the answer.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
This certainly isn't normal behavior, so no doubt in that, your phone have hardware problems.

Only this part of your reply I don't understand: because "regenersis" dont want to do expertise

how do you mean don't want to do expertise?

maybe it's problem in my english :) I know what word means but can't understand in what meaning you put it there. :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] bagniak:
Problem is that i dont understand that also. Expertise is needed if i send phone for reclamation, after all its the base for repairs/exchanges or at least i thought so. My phone was send to regenersis and after 2 weeks some lady from "play" called to me saying that "regenersis do not do expertise's for SE phones" and without expertise she cannot give me a new phone, which kinda left me confused because they are official service and i always thought that expertise is REQUIRED for them to even start repairs, maybe she lied to me but considering that "regenersis" is known for being the worst polish service center that was sued multiple times already i wouldnt be surprised if she said the truth.

My brother has the HTC One S and I have a quick question.

I cut my SIM card and it's going in with no problem at all.

Thing is, the phone dosen't read the SIM card but it reads my T-Mobile SIM card.

Doe's the phone need to be unlocked or what?
[HTC One S] yungtexas:
Nope....I've been having simple mobile for a while now and all I did was cut the sim insert it in the phone and changed the apn and it worked right away. You don't have to unlock or root the phone for it to work. Maybe u cut too much of it
[HTC One S] Reviewers:
Mind telling me the exact APN settings you put?

Make sure you cutted it right. I cut it myself too, but somehow I messed it up, so I had to request a new simcard. You could always try with an other phone offcourse.

I saw a post with the above name. Posted by POORCOLLEGEGUY After seeing this, I was curious how many HTC devices have the same front facing camera. I have an HTC Evo 4g, it shows my FFC as a Samsung s5kaafx 1M. I found this in /sys/android_camera2/sensor, you have to open it in a text editor!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] logie:
tried nandroid restore.. it reboots

tried to reflash existing.. it reboots

i can still get into recovery though but if i do anything with 'system' it reboots

any ideas how to get that fixed or probably have to replace? i cant even overwrite my custom boot logo. ugh lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jdizzle316:
Try relocking the bootloader, then fast boot the ruu
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] logie:
thanks im downloading the RUU..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rxpert:
How exactly did you update to the newest base?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] logie:
Figured I would update this thread in hopes of helping someone else if they get stuck here.

I had upgraded to the new base with PJ75IMG and that went well - had used other ROMs on that new base.

What had happened was I was flashing venom on TWRP 2.2.0 and it rebooted phone when it hit system (why system was damaged in first place not sure, i had just rebooted into recovery).

I had to oem lock, ruu, oem unlock (even though it said s-off for lazypanda it was not working) and then i was able to re-flash twrp (this time pushed 2.2.1 through fastboot).

I've put a lot of evo's in bad spots but the behavior I saw on this was new for me.. Anything I touched 'system' from twrp or if my rom tried to load, phone would cycle. Light would NOT go on when plugged in.

Either way rocking new rom and am good! thanks guys

No. You can't hack an app on your phone to get free service. The _only_ thing you can get for free is emergency calls.

Well that or Straight Talk for $45 or the $30 T-Mobile plan will give you Edge or you may be able to get 3g if you are in certain parts of Alabama, PA, or Seattle.

Not hard on them at all... I am still using my original G2x. Both Nexus phones I received had bad screens out of the box and the Windows phone came with a messed up speaker.

It just seems like I can't get away from this phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dustin Bieber:
Damn...I'd be pissed to get a broken BNIB smartphone, let alone 3.

What happened with the 3 broken ones? Did you end up getting a free upgrade or anything? Or did they just send you a fully functioning phone?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nickcuban:
The nexus phones were from google, the windows phone was used, so i sent it back. I guess ill just stick with the g2x for another 10 months like i agreed to lol

So for some reason Odin sees my phone, and my phone turns on the screen when I plug it in, but I can't seem to access the folders from my PC. They just aren't showing up.
