FIrst of all, you cannot root .62 in any way or the other........you need to downgrade it to .42 first...this your normal procedure would have been

Searching for following

1)how to downgrade from .62 to .42

2)how to root .42

But you have the greatest advantage of an unlocked boot loader hence, you can directly flash a compatible kernel (e.g doom kernel v19) and then flash a rom.....thus you have a custom kernel that supports overclocking and also a superb rom(e.g acronium 8.2) along with extremely battery efficient system andof course root....

Hey,

Does anyone else have an issue with the navigation voice being super quiet when playing music with Google Music?

It happened when I was running CM9. It still happens when I'm running CM10. Both are on stock kernels.

Edit: I should also mention that the sound is routed via the 3.5 mm Audio Out jack.

Hi all, I know there are threads already created for questions etc but I've an extensive list of them and I don't think its appropriate to spam them in someone else's thread. And I'll update the first post of the answers and replies I've received for the questions I've posted!

My phone's information: will5's MIUI ROM 2.5.25 GB 2.3.7

My list of questions

Android OS

::Hard rebinding hard keys::

Is that possible? My power button recently got damaged and its really tough to press the power button now which is quite a problem, is there any way to rebind the power button to say the camera button? (specifically the 2nd-click of the camera button, not the first click (focus)) MS2Toolbox is able to wake screen with the camera button but thats just soft-sided and I need to hard bind for turning on the phone and using the recovery etc... :crying:

::Allow app to stay active when screen-off and when not in foreground:: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29658020&postcount=95

I want to let my app, specifically Opera Mobile, to be constantly active as I run a script (user javascript) on it which repeats its function periodically. Is there a way to keep it active throughout deep-sleep, or when in the background? Currently its working well when I switch the screen off as long the app was in the foreground. The script and Opera Mobile still runs perfectly and I do not experience battery drain (weird). I have been doing so for the past few months and it takes probably only 30% of my battery overnight when I sleep despite the periodic data connection. However, this didn't happen on the MIUIv4 ROM when I tested it. The app is 'frozen' or suspended, it seems, the moment I switch the screen off. Tried apps which disabled deep sleep etc but didn't work. Any ideas?

Overclocking

::What are the default VSELs for the respective frequency for MS2?::

I know there's one here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11620994&postcount=1 by santiemanuel, but it gives VSELs WAY above those I'm using or the defaults from MS2Toolbox. Say, for 300MHz, the stock vsel is 33 and 30 is considered unstable. How ever the default in MS2Toolbox for that frequency is 17 if I'm not wrong. I'm using that at the moment and it seems to be running fine (used powersave governor to enforce 300MHz to test it out). Just to confirm, should I really follow that table?

WiFi

::Changing Milestone 2's WiFi MAC address::

Hi guys, I've been trying to look for a way to change my M2's MAC address but have not been able to get it to work.

I've googled up for methods but the common ones do not work.

Tried so far:

- The nvram.txt file

Can't find it in the usual folders stated.

- busybox ifconfig tiwlan0 hw ether <MAC>

- busybox ip link set dev tiwlan0 addr <MAC>

Tried these two commands but didn't work either in terminal emulator. Even did the off-on-immediately spam commands but no luck.

::SOLVED::

Overclocking

::How do I check the current VSEL and frequency at any point in time?::

I'm trying to underclock and ultra-undervolt to save as much battery as possible and want to know how's the selected governor working in order to manually optimize the settings to my preferences.

::How do I know its an unstable VSEL?::

Q: Quite vague a question but... as said in the first question, I'm running 300MHz at a VSEL of 17 instead of 33, nearly half of the stock. How would I be able to tell if its unstable? When I'm running in powersave governor, it shows that the 'system' process stopped responding at boot and I've the wait/close option, but after selecting wait the dialog disappears and the phone still works as per usual. However its very sluggish, clearly because of the underclock. Regardless, does the system process being unresponsive at the start shows it is unstable?

::3 steps shown in the bootloader but 4 shown in MS2Toolbox::

Q: This has been bugging me recently. I've read recently that the M2 has 4 steps for its CPU. So the CPU actually follows the 4 steps shown in MS2Toolbox or the 3 in the bootloader? Note: When I change the values in the bootloader, the values changes respectively in MS2Toolbox for the 2nd,3rd,4th rows (did not tick auto apply in M2T to prevent overlaps with bootloader settings). But the 1st row shows values lower than the one in the 2nd row automatically.

Hello Everyone,

I just unlocked my phone for the second time (replacement phone) and I am doing it on a mac this time. The unlocking process went fine, I had to change a couple command but that was it. But now I am trying to root and I cannot find any instructions for rooting while being on linux/mac.

I downloaded the one click root for windows which I had previously used (while on windows) and I tried to convert the .bat myself and just type out the code into terminal but make it work for unix but I ran into an issue when I was running this command:

adb shell "/data/local/tmp/busybox mount -o remount,rw /system"

it shot me back an error that said this:

./adb shell "/data/local/tmp/busybox mount -o remount,rw /system"

mount: permission denied (are you root?)

I had already ran the zergRush and it said this:

I am not sure if Hellions with BLUE flames ! is an error or what. Maybe someone can help me running the .bat on mac or give me instructions or rooting on mac or anything that could help me out. I also already tried to chmod (0755) the bat file and running it but basically is just crapped out and gave me a bunch of errors.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ljbaujer

1. Belongs in Q & A, as this is a question, not for the Development section.

2. Typical ways to attain root would be to install Amon-Ra and flash superuser from there, or by flashing a ROM that is already rooted (easiest method).

edit: also that one click method is hella outdated

Nice to see I'm not the only Mac head on here. I ran the latest leaked RUU for ICS....the one that ends in .10 Installing Amon Ra and using it to work wasn't enough for me. I had to install a zip file after that. I did the Amon Ra thing on GB and it was fine, but after ICS any app that required root kept saying superuser permission not granted, and it stayed that way until I ran the zip. If I can find that forum I will post a link for you. I'm confident that this is the method that will work after the OTA is fully pushed (some on Androidcentral.com have posted pics and gotten the official OTA). ICS is almost here for everyone. A few more days to wait, but since this method worked on the leaked version, hopefully it will work on the OTA as well.

last night i upgraded fom 2.1.8 to 2.2.1 with goo manager. i am s-on rooted on ota update thru system updates. in other words i took the update. the first thing i did is change the name of two out of three of my restore points. when i changed the names i put what i wanted them called then i put the date. when i tried to restore they would get to restoring system and then boot back to the twrp curtain that raises. i tried several times with this same result. so then i tried the restore point that i never changed the name of and it worked flawlessly. so i went back into recovery and tried the other restore points that wouldnt work before. again, they still wouldnt restore. so i changed the name again. i put the DATE first then what i wanted to call them and voila they worked flawlessly. if i had changed all three dates id be totally lost right now. but since the restore point that i never changed had the date first worked when the others didnt i just figured id put the date first seeing that the restore point that worked had the date first. i still named the others exactly what i wanted. i dont know if this problem has ever been addressed but i guess i got lucky and would pass what worked for me on to who should know. and i have a question. before installing a custom rom going from either the original sense rom or from one custom build rom to another what should be wiped? i wiped cache, dalvik cache and system before i did what i explained above. i hope this is helpful some how and im going to post this on xda also under QandA. thanks for what all you guys do at twrp

Not ssure if changing the names had anything to do with it or not For TWRP may have...also yesterday when I did a restore I was getting errors so finally unchecked the very last box on the restore panel...that seemed to fix my problem.....

The phone ask for pin code with an O2 SIM but there is no signal at all and a small icon like sim erro or something like that, When i go to settings and research for networks an try connect to o2 there is a message (cant connect to network). I read somewhere that relock the bootloader would help. Thanks :) .

And i think that your problem dude, your version isn'r compatible with your signal, u will ahve to install another version

HTC promised us the ICS update by the end of July. Wrong again. Here we are in August and no ICS update. I think I am like most people and dont really care about the update itself so much as HTC releasing the source code so we can get serious modding done. Personally, I am running CleanROM and it works great. I wouldnt mind having a new CleanROM based on the offical ICS update, though, if it ever comes out.

Either way, I will NEVER buy another Verizon or HTC phone again. This was my first on both of them and it will be my last for sure. Soon as my 2 yr contract is up, I'm ditching Verizon.

Dear Andrew S,

Thank you for contacting HTC regarding the Android 4.0 update. I understand that you are excited to receive the update for your HTC Rezound. I will be happy to share the information I have with you.

The ICS (Android 4.0) update will be released for the Rezound by the end of this month (July) with final pushes in August. Due to localization, testing, and partner approvals, updates do not roll out to all devices at the same time. For devices on a wide variety of carriers and in many countries, rollouts can take up to 45 days from the initial update to reach everyone. It’s almost here, Andrew! We are as excited as you are. I hope you enjoy the rest of your week!

Isn't the point of having a forum like XDA, which has so many talented developers, that you don't have to wait if you don't want to? As about a billion people have posted on all these "waiting for OTA" threads have said, ICS for the Rezound is available RIGHT NOW for anyone that wants it - you don't even have to root - I'm new to the Rezound, but have been rooting phones with the help of XDA for years now - i have CHOSEN to wait for the OTA, knowing that at any time I can flash one of the great ROMS that have been put together with great care and support by some really smart people - it just seems odd that people who are on a forum dedicated to NOT WAITING for manufacturers to get their act together will post repeatedly about how upset they are about having to wait -
