This is meant for those still interested in the problem, especially for those who are a little bit anxious to connect their precious devices

to homemade equipment. There is a commercial solution to this problem.

I also do have a self made cable, which works perfectly, but a lot of my friends go :" Naah, I am not going to connect my tablet or phone to that!".

So I bought this one:

lavalink tl-002

It is an OTG uSB micro adaptor with a micro USB port to plug in your original power supply for your phone or tablet.

I use it in combination with a active sitecom 7 USB Hub where I connect my wireless USB mouse, keyboard, 2.5 inch hard disc drive and sometimes

a few pen drives all at the same time. My Samsung tablet as well as my Huawei phablet and my cheap trekstore tablet works well with this hardware configuration. It also works well with the devices of my friends which I can't remember all.( I mean all of their devices, I of course remember my friends.)

This configuration charges my tablet with the help of its original power source , as well as my USB peripherals through the power source of my USB hub.

It is quite small to carry around and without a power source it works like a normal USB oTG connector.

I admit, it is quite expensive for the little thing it does, but it does it quite well.

[HTC Sensation] Rotten_Johny:
Hi & thanks for the guide. But I was wondering if I could use a powered usb hub instead of doing this hack? I am going to make your cable anyway just for the fun of it & because it will come in handy that's for sure. But I don't see why a powered hub would not work in the same way as this mod.

Is it possible to use an android phone without a data plan and just text and call from it. Then connect to wifi for internet use?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
Yes
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sbcdave:
2nd. Definitely yes
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rvdangel630:
You can but tmobile requires a data plan when on there network using a smart phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] breadland:
That's what I did the last few months with wind. But now I got an upgrade with unlimited data for only $30 a month.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sbcdave:
Tell them your using and old nokia brick phone. You might even be able to get the cheap $10/month internet and have 3g or something.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] deathmaker06:
Well not exactly. If you buy the phone out of contract then you can use the phone without a data plan. That's exactly what I did with my G2X and I don't have any data plan on it. They also aren't bugging me to get one either.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PaKii94:
haha i didnt tell them im using a g2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dustin Bieber:
Like another poster stated, they only force you in to a plan w/data if you pick up a new phone through contract. Out of contract deals are totally safe and you can use wifi for Internet all you want
[T-Mobile LG G2x] idlaxstar:
My mom apparently asked a person at the tmobile store if this was possible and he said no because the phone will search for internet and update itself and then you will get charged for data usage. Do you have to turn the data off on the phone?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
It won't if you keep data disabled.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] daxecutioner24:
Yea dont believe those idiot service reps, They would say anything to get you on a contract

First of all Dafuq is a chooch???

Second, don't listen to imbeciles that have no clue what they are talking about. I've been using Google/Android for over 5 years & not once has it "swiped" any pics (or anything at all!) from my fone.

I think unless you know exactly what you deleted then the only way round this is either restore an earlier nandroid or reflash a new ROM.

In future if you want to delete vital parts of your fones OS then pls, I implore you- make a back up!!!

would it ever be possible to flash windows phone 7 or 8 to the note

i see the HTC HD2 has windows phone on it i wonder if the note could ever be flashed to windows phone?

or its just impossible?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] JamieD81:
umm... HD2 = a windows phone. android was ported to it.

as for windows phone to android i dont think anyones tried or tried very hard.

try launcher7 gives you the look and feel of a windows phone and runs nice
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] new ion?:
Wp7 has some strict hardware requirements... the note breaks almost all of them
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
Impossible no. But it is not going to happen. HD2 was a microsoft windows phone to start. The Note isn't. If you want a windows phone then buy a windows phone. I am sure a mod will have this thread closed very shortly like all the past threads.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Sheon849:
damn that sucks i want my note screen with windows phone 7 guess that dream wont come true -_-
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LittleRedDot:
Did you read the post about trying win7 launcher
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Snarksneeze:
Wow. Where to start. Hrmm... Okay:

The HD2 originally came with windows mobile installed. Due to the (at the time) awesome hardware specs and large screen, everyone wanted it. After a week, we all realized how horrible windows mobile was and started experimenting with getting Android to boot. For an entire year we were copying Android versions over to our SD cards and booting from there. Around Christmas, we finally got the bootloader unlocked and we had a great phone. It wasn't much longer before Ubuntu was also running and once Win7 came out, folks had that booting too. All of this was in answer to one problem: windows mobile sucked.

Our Notes do not suck. Even the "stock" version of Android that ships with the phone is better than anything Microsoft has come up with so far.

So, no, I don't think anyone is concerned with getting another OS to boot on the Note.

On my Note via xda app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Reclaim:
Windows Mobile 6.5 is different than Windows Phone 7. I often miss some of the things Windows Mobile used to offer. NRGZ28 made a killer Rom for the HD2. I also loved the level of customization and the ease of applying things via .cab. It used a lot of desktop computer features as well. We're only recently reaching that level of nuance in Android as far as that stuff goes. The problem with Windows Phone 7 however is that all these good things died, and thus so did the true pocket PC.

Android has come such a long way and our devices are beautiful and versatile now. Who would ever want to run anything different at this point?

Just for reference, I posted some screenshots of my old Windows 6.5 HD2.

Not sure why I felt like doing this, but it made me remember those times
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Never gonna happen.....

but it would be cool....for about 10 minutes.....LOL......g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpoirier587:
Ahh yes I remember the good old days on my tilt2. Good times. Gotta love triple booting
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
Windows Mobile 6.5 far from sucked. I still have my Telstra HD2 and it has an NRG ROM too. There were many things you could do on it that you still can't with android. The problem was not the OS but the lack of quality and compatible apps and the ending of support from microsoft.

Windows phone was microsoft's attempt to go after iphone. They locked it up very well just like the iphone OS. But unfortunately that takes away from customization and apps also. Reliable but boring for most. I'm just afraid android is going down the same path as microsoft once did. Too many phone variations and incompatible, crappy, and harmful apps.

[HTC Rezound] Junetastic:
I recently installed a ROM based on the OTA ICS update, and it seems like my camera is having difficulty focusing (similar problem I had when I used the Chase app for my OG Droid). It will attempt to focus, at some point during the process will focus properly, goes past the optimal focus point and ends up out of focus.

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] IrvChynaman:
Does this happen when only taking macro shots? I've had this problem since gb and it has something to do with the lighting. The problem isnt constant but it does happen often. I've searched around and it seems like a lot of HTC phones have this.
[HTC Rezound] chrisjz:
I just noticed this the other day, I was trying to get a close up shot and it would not focus, so I turned macro on and it still wouldn't focus. I even flashed one of the camera mods, I think 1.5?? and still didn't fix it.
[HTC Rezound] Junetastic:
Nope it's out of focus for pretty much any type of shot, no matter where I focus on the screen. (Auto-focus off, Face Detection off, btw).

It seems the problem is depth of field, I think. I don't know the terminology, but I describe it as a scenes with the subject in the foreground and something in the background (e.g. a person standing in front of a mountain backdrop).

If it's a scene like the one described above, it will just kinda focus in-between because it's confused if it should focus on the person or the mountain. If i'm taking a photo of something, say a wallet on a desk, it will do an OK job focusing on the wallet.

...

I just figured out a temporary fix. The focusing issues only occur in 4:3 mode but works just about flawlessly in 16:9.
[HTC Rezound] Junetastic:
Just wanted to see if anyone else out there has focus issues in 4:3 mode but not 16:9 mode?
[HTC Rezound] SL556:
I've had the same issues on all is roms lately. Fix seems to be to just stay away from 4:3 mode :/
[HTC Rezound] IrvChynaman:
Hmm I tried switching back to 16:9 and it does seem to have a better time focusing. Granted that could just be a placebo effect. Any other opinions?

:( so ive been researching for a while on how to get my HTC Amaze 4g to upgrade to ICS. It's rooted, S-On, and unlocked using htc's website.

I tried to "re-lock" my device first so i could use the update, but right after it relocks, the phone wont leave fastboot screen. If i pull the battery and turn it on it goes straight to fastboot, plug it in goes to fastboot.

What do i do??!?!!?

I downloaded hasoon's HTC All in one kit but i couldnt figure out how to install a stock recovery...

I'm pretty noob so can you guys please help me?

Do i put the ph85img first and then relock my device? then let h-boot run that file ? or what....

These are the instructions i am following:

Below instructions for S ON users only who wish to remain S ON

Flash stock recovery

Relock phone (fastboot oem lock)

Flash rom update in bootloader (rename ruu to PH85IMG.zip, place on SD card and boot to bootloader)

Unlock with HTC tool

Flash custom recovery

Flash superuser package

Done!

[HTC One X] boobinator:
So what is the best AOSP rom out there for the HOX, both JB and ICS. I am thinking of finally getting AOSP and was wondering what have people's experiences been with so many roms out there. For both ICS and JB TripNRaver and Tbalden's roms are my top choices right now. I was wondering which is more stable and has better battery life. It seems that both of them have stopped working on their ICS roms in favor of JB roms. TripNRaver's rom is RC2 and Tbaldens is Beta 5, should i just go with Trip's rom seeing that his was atleast a RC as opposed beta? And what about JB, whose JB rom is better for everyday use?

EDIT: By best i mean which has less bugs and is more stable
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
There is no best rom, the best rom is what works best for you, it's always good to try them out personally and see how they meet your needs. If you don't like it try another one until you find the best one that caters for you. :thumbup:
[HTC One X] boobinator:
Yeah I get that i just meant which is more stable and has less bugs

it seems like cyanogenmod doesn't support htc one x? WHY?
[HTC One X] whynot66:
It's still in alpha I don't think the cynagon team will release officially until it's stable. They haven't released cm10 on the sg3

IMHO tbalden alpha4 is the most stable its my daily

The sg3 us further behind than the hox I don't think they have been a camera yet
[HTC One X] misterpho06:
ohh.. i just thought since htc one x isn't listed on the cyanogenmod, its not officially supported by them. And I thought all these CM9 and CM10 roms for the HOX are just ported from other cyanogenmod roms??

[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Hi again guys.

I had a theory...............

Ever notice how when sony 'FIX' your Tab it magically comes back with original 3.2. Well thanks to condi we have a link to Sony Servers with a installer file here:

http://info.update.sony.net/ST002/nbx02_001/contents/0002/signed-nbx02_001-installer-01202.009.zip

My therory is that the 'installer' file instead of 'ota' can overwrite any previous build. Currently with ota's you are restricted by build number, but perhaps with this installer file will will have a sorta way to revert.

What i need is:

Someone with a TAB P US region

Someone with a pair of stones (because you will need to do this without prerooting)

Preferably you will have a rootable 3.2.1 build to flash then obtain root after.

OR if you don't have root then this can't hurt it will either flash your Tab back to stock and you can OTA update again, or it will fail and you can boot back into normal ROM.

Please someone try this, if it is a success I WILL FIND all the installer files I can. If this works it will be the best method we have of rooting our unrootable tabs.

Good luck
