[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Letitride:
Got the latest 4.2.2 downloaded already on my Nexus 7, ready to install - had rollback to 4.1.2 as the 4.2.1 was buggy & not as responsive, questionable on battery life - but rooted stock 4.1.2 is silky smooth and a gem to use, riding the NYC subway train above ground last week to see a client & the "giant" screen knocked out all the iPhone & SG II Tab 2/Note users nearby on their screen - tethering via the DI2 (LOL) to check emails, pretty cool. One person actually asked if mine was the new i"Mini" and I answered, much better than the "i"M ... ha ha

I've pretty much given up hope of seeing any newer firmware/update being released by HTC and/or VZW for our beloved DI2, especially now that it's officially retired & no longer sold in retail stores with the shift to 4G LTE devices. Majority of non-XDA users out there aren't complaining and they aren't going to give a darn about it as many are eager to upgrade, swimming in that "Share Everything" mindset (and, of course, pay MORE for less marketing pitch.)

DI2 is mostly resigned to being a "simple" workhorse with some nice tweaks, thanks to the hard work & dedication of the developers here - satisfying the flash addiction on the N7 instead. Amazing how smooth a stock rom, rooted & basically unlocked with no carrier-bloatware can be, and be the first in hand to receive OTA option to upgrade, no wait or no workarounds or sideloading necessary. Not to mention the fun of quad-core and mind-blowing Quadrant scores for benchmarking purposes - HTC is slipping further & further behind in fast changing times - I'm afraid it's just a matter of time & money before Big Red is going to seriously rollout a budget Hauwei device for us - *****ing about the high pricing tiers when it's time to upgrade (opening up another can of worms here, okay - go ahead) :cyclops: (Afterall, it's all made in China, anyway - Foxconn or otherwise ...)

[HTC Wildfire S] iXmerof:
I'm kinda tired of the stock rom, neverending lacks of internal memory and my sd is empty... Now is 7mb, yesterday was 20mb of free, what I did from yesterday is 2 times call and 1 sms.

I need space, have 16 gigs SD card (900mb used) I want to remove all the build apps (facebook, htc apps...), root the phone (best would be option to fast change rooted/not rooted).

>>#Question 1: Is there a posibility to install Google Play without GMail, Maps etc?

I bought a book and want to start learning developing Android apps, now I can't do nothing on my phone because of no internal space problems.

Before that all I would like to NOT ROOT this stock rom (s-on) and backup everything (with apps, settings, photos, sms's) and store the backup to the PC and s-off it, wipe all internal memory and install something to try. When custom roms will not satisfy me I want to install this backup back and have everything as is now.

>>#Question 2: Is this possible? And how?
[HTC Wildfire S] omnomnomkimiiee:
Installing custom roms without root ?

That can be compared to buying a Ferrari with a V2 engine.

Also, I'm not sure that it's possible.

"You can overclock as much as you want, your phone will always seem too slow."
[HTC Wildfire S] Senthamil:
You can take a complete backup or your current Stock ROM after rooting your device by either s-off or unlocked bootloader and install ClockworkMod recovery for your model. Then thru CWM you can take a backup. (Keep a copy safe on PC)

After this try installing your Custom ROMs of your choice.

If you are not satisfied with that, you can get back your Stock ROM thru CWM Recovery option.

Hope this may be useful. (If really, Just press 'Thanks"):)
[HTC Wildfire S] balakrishnan111:
I hope that without rooting or Unlocked Bootloader it is not possible to install a custom recovery such as Touch recovery or ClockworkMod Recovery. by that recovery only we are able to backup.

and it is also possible to return back to stock ROM (with Locked HBOOT and no more ***UNLOCKED*** logo by the Supervision method).

infact i checked in my A510E. so no problem....
[HTC Wildfire S] iXmerof:
No, I wanted to backup not rooted stock firmware to have not rooted copy, after this root, s-off and everything what I have to do to install new fw.

So the only way is to first root my device (and make s-off too?) then make a backup? When I will restore this backed-up-rooted rom is a possibility to revert back it to non rooted state?
[HTC Wildfire S] omnomnomkimiiee:
Ah, now I get it.

You can flash a custom recovery without root, use the search function to find out how.

"You can overclock as much as you want, your phone will always seem too slow."
[HTC Wildfire S] kantry123:
you cannot remove any system app without root..!

by removing those gmail and maps won't increase your internel memory..it will increase space in system partition which is non-usable ..

have you tried apps2sd..?:good:
[HTC Wildfire S] iXmerof:
Those apps would be removed on cfw, not this stock one - stock has to stay as is with no change, saved to PC and removed from the smartphone.

I have installed apps2sd and installed only 2 apps (keyboard and qrcode reader) on internal memory only, doesn't helps. Google Maps is unused and weights only 2mb. I have 15 apps on SD, all are needed - uninstalling one makes more place on internal too. HTC Gallery non stop cries that it's not enough space to open pictures and movies (7mb free of internal) so I have to remove the stock and use data2sd to make ext partition on SD, that's my only idea.

P.S.

Is there any way to make folders not only on desktop but on all apps menu too? I can leave Sense for this option :)
[HTC Wildfire S] omnomnomkimiiee:
App2sd is no good without root.

Everything you want to do requires root.

[HTC Wildfire S] Senthamil:
Hey,

Don't be confused or think too much. If you loose one, you will get one...!!!

If you are ready to loose warranty & clear about what you do, then go ahead.

you can get more benefits by exploring the device....

You can't touch the system files without unlocking or rooted !.

Once you are unlocked the bootloader thru HTCdev.com you can't claim your warranty, Even though you install back the Original Stock ROM (Until I know but verify).

If you are rooted you can get more benefits Like,

1.Get more internal memory by installing Link2sd !! (No other way)

2. Install latest ROM's, Etc...

Hope this will help you....
[HTC Wildfire S] iXmerof:
All you said I knew before, but thanks for helping - I very appreciate that.

I don't worry about warranty because I don't have it (self changed LCD screen after break). If root/cfw will not satisfy me I want go to non rooted state and don't lose all settings, apps, old market and everything what I have now (or cook something alone, but now I'm too green for it) - that's me by nature, I'm always making copies of anything.

I know that root is great, because of new possibilities. Mostly what I want from root is: space from SD as space for apps, OC (but pity that there is no chance for psx 3D emulation, 2D works great), firewall, deodexed files to modify some panels (add/change/remove options from ex. notification area).

Why I would to have switch between root/not rooted? Because HTC needs some licenses for advanced SDK (available on root freely) and I will test my future apps on the android state which most of peoples have - it's the only Android device I have. And not rooted state for daily use (without installing anything) is much easier I think.

This switch is not must be for me

, I'm focusing to backup what I have now and then s-off it and try some cfw's.

My pathway: backup stock -> s-off/root -> root/s-off -> wipe -> install cfw. I don't want to modify stock rom without root, I don't want to touch something in stock, after backup it would be unlocked and tested, explored, modified and more more.

If it is not possible in that way I will think about some new ways what to do.

It's my phone for daily use, I need it for to work and I'm not having always time to play with dev things and I'll have to fast revert back all changes (and backup what I've done to restore at free time). I don't have money for second one.
[HTC Wildfire S] omnomnomkimiiee:
Backup stock>only possible with root/custom recovery

S-off>only possible with xtc clip

What you're asking is to run unrooted everyday, but root now and then for dev'ing. Might as well keep root for everyday use.

Boost uses Sprint network without the benefit of any roaming agreements. Sprint network without the Verizon roaming agreement is horrible.

i'm debating between the htc flyer and the n7, but my main concern with the n7 is all the issues that have been discussed and people having had to do 3 RMAs, etc. So is it still worth it?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AZImmortal:
I'm not sure what the defect rate of the current Nexus 7s are now, but as far as alternatives go, the HTC Flyer is completely outclassed with its single core processor. If you're considering alternatives, you should really look for something with a dual core processor, like the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7".
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTR01:
well im looking to spend $250 or less, new or used. I'm not looking to compare the flyer and n7, as i already know it would be unfair. Not a fan of samsung tablets, and for the tablet i dont need the latest and greatest specs on it. I owned a nook color and was very happy with it, enjoyed my tf101 but the screen was a bit big for my tastes.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaxCarnage:
If you liked the Nook Color, why not consider the Nook Tablet?

EDIT: I would also take people's complaints here about "defects" with a grain of salt. Yes, of course there are always going to be real manufacturing defects in a product line, but geeks tend to be more...particular than the average consumer. If you're really concerned about it go to a retail store and open it right there to make sure it's to your liking. At least that way too you can return the same day if needed.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regalpimpin:
Do it. Eventually you'll get a good one, hopefully on the first try.

You won't be dissapointed coming from those other devices. I'm still rather impressed having a transformer prime, just how well this thing does.

That would be the wrong move. Sure it goes from a single to dual core processor. But your left with a tablet that is so locked down, and has practically no development. Vs. the color which was pretty cool in its day and has tons of mods. I was very dissapointed after I got a nook tab for my girlfriend.

There is a nook app, and a kindle app. There's no reason to have a nook or kindle after the release of the Nexus. IMO.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTR01:
i kinda wanted something similar but with a front facing camera. yeah i guess i could go into a store :eek:

yeah, im sure eventually i would get a good one but its (potentially) a lot of time/energy used.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regalpimpin:
I'll admit, I did get a replacement. But that replacement seems good so far. And from the play store, it wasn't really all that much of a hassle. If you can find it locally, it's even less hassle.

I just think in the 7" form factor, it would be silly to get anything else, if you don't like samsung. (me included)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTR01:
i figured most people on xda have gotten at least 1 replacement, if not more, but thats good to hear the returns via the play store are relatively easy. i guess i'll have to compare final prices and see where i can get the best deal and think about it all.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] primetimelive:
Coming from a single core 7 inch tablet, I can say that going with the Nexus 7 is the better choice.

The issues people have been having is due to their very meticulous nature.

Screen separation? There's a guide to fix that. You can send it to Asus to get it fixed, but you can spend 15 mins to fix it yourself.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTR01:
great to hear that, where did you buy from? I might buy from the google play store, cheapest price i can find without buying used.

Well i happen to be one of those meticulous natured people, when i buy something i expect at the very least that it would be in the condition i paid money for. So once a few more people chime in i might just go ahead and buy from the play store, unless there's somewhere better/cheaper/faster. I checked local close by stores and they are all $250 not including tax yet...for comparison the play store total price is $231.85.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AZImmortal:
I think I read somewhere that the Galaxy Tab 2 7" is on sale this week at Walmart for $250 with a $50 gc, which brings the net price down to $200 if you want to count the gc as cash. Any reason why you don't like Samsung tablets? You can always load a custom rom if you don't like Touchwiz (which I don't).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frescagod:
i had an HTC Evo View 4G (Sprint's version of the HTC Flyer). My thoughts...

As the title states, I had the Sprint version of the HTC Flyer, and I liked it a lot. It was relatively snappy, running Honeycomb 3.2, and I had 32GB onboard and a 32GB microSD card in it, so I could carry around a fair amount of music and movies for airplane rides, etc.

I ended up leaving it on an airplane, and I was dejected for a full week before I decided to pre-order the Nexus 7. I got it through MacMall and it has been pretty solid so far. Very slight raised screen on the left side, but literally 1mm tops, and not noticeable. It's not spongy, but it does give if you press hard on the screen (which I never do). As for Jelly Bean 4.1, it is hands down superior to Honeycomb in every way shape and form, and you can definitely tell the difference in responsiveness with the N7. Loading apps like Netflix, Pulse, Kindle, etc. is at least five times faster on the N7 vs. the HTC, and it should be. Also, I paid $230 for the HTC when it was on sale last year, and while I don't regret that amount paid for it, the $249 (no tax + free shipping) for the N7 is a great deal, assuming you get one in good shape.

I would recommend buying from a local retail store so you can exchange and exchange until you get a good unit. It seems like there are a lot of faulty ones out there, but then again, this is a forum where people are going to go to gripe about their issues, not bask in the glory of their perfectly functioning devices.
