havent seen this posted yet so im copy and pasting from rootwiki ORIGINALLY POSTED BY jimmyco2008

Hey all,

So I've been working on a site (which went live earlier today) to serve as a repository for ROMs, kernels, recoveries, things like that, and even news- Mecha Centre.

I've noticed that the Thunderbolt community is dying a bit, not only because of the age of the Thunderbolt, but because of the whole RIL Ice Cream Sandwich fiasco which suggests that Thunderbolt development is dead without HTC's releasing updates.

I've created this site to help revive/keep the community of devs and users alive, as well as to make it easier to locate ROMs and other files one may need for their Thunderbolt.

We're still working on the site, but we already have some live links and news, and I encourage everyone to check it out! We try to keep ROM files so as to avert the dreaded 404 dead link, and our goal is to update often and keep up with the developers and their ROM releases.

You can find out more about this project at MechaCentre.tk and contact us with any questions, comments, suggestions, etc. via jimmyco2010@mechacentre.com.

Thanks guys! Long live Thunderbolt!

ugh... this doesn't belong in the development section, you didn't share anything you developed in this thread. also, jimmyco posted a thread in thunderbolt general here about his site already...

RIL = Release it Late? I really have no idea what happened to shutdown development, but I keep seeing RIL all over every thread asking about it.
[Thunderbolt General] quickdraw86:
RIL= radio interface layer... it is needed to get working data in ICS for this phone. development has slowed because developers have already created a ton of gingerbread roms and because it has proven extremely difficult to reverse engineer the ICS RIL without source. the RIL wasn't part of the source HTC published for gingerbread, but will be part of the ICS source... it'll give devs a base to start from in getting AOSP data for ICS anyway...

Wait a minute.....whats that sound??.....I hear banjo's :D
[Thunderbolt General] Shadow Death:
Thank you for clearing that up. I have been trying to piece together what I've read here on the forums without having to start a thread. To be honest, if they would release the RIL development would pick up again. I think they need to look at Samsung's idea and reconsider their marketing strategy. The NS4G is over a year old now and the development is booming for them. The second the jb source released people were cranking out roms.

I love this phone but I'm not exactly crazy about the lack of encouragement HTC gives you developers.
[Thunderbolt General] quickdraw86:
yeah... HTC will never release just the RIL, it's proprietary software. though i much prefer HTC products to samsung's, HTC is notorious for their questionable interpretation of GPLv2 where they feel they can wait 90-120 days after a release to publish source, even though no time period is stipulated and samsung releases source before, alongside, or shortly after their releases.

*Thunderbolt 4G*
[Thunderbolt General] Shadow Death:
You know, when the sdk for ICS released someone had managed to modify the rom built from the sdk to run on a 2.3.7 kernel on the NS4G. I wonder if a similar path would be possible with the RIL from the current AOSP roms for this phone. I have no idea how Android is structured so as far as I know I may just be blowing smoke with that idea.
[Thunderbolt General] disconnecktie:
Unfortunately getting the kernel to work with ics is relatively easy. Not much changed in the function of the kernel from gb to ics so only a little modification can make it work. The ril on the other hand requires much more modifications because the framework is tied in with the ril. Plus there are other factors that i cant explain that determine whether the rril will work.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amuzz:
In the process of rooting my kindle with KFU option 2, something went wrong.

Currently, KFU shows ADB Status as Online, but Boot Status as Unknown.

Android Phone appears in device manager with Android Composite ADB Interface.

Running adb devices in cmd results in: 1F90000600000001 recovery

Running option 1 in KFU and trying to change to 4000 results in: "The system cannot find the drive specified."

Other posts have suggested typing

adb shell idme bootmode 4000

into cmd. This results in: /sbin/sh: idme: not found

I'm not sure which boot mode I'm stuck in or how to get out of it. I've tried searching some, but the most common response of "adb shell idme bootmode 4000" wouldn't work for me. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
What happens when you select reboot then system?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amuzz:
Thanks, worked perfectly! Currently looking through the rest of that thread to find a workaround for this so I can run KFU again.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Doubtful learn fastboot kfu likely uses idme as part of its script don't believe you will find any love there...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
KFU uses Pokey9000's fbmode and such to change the bootmodes. Strange, it didn't work for you in the first place.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amuzz:
Looking through the run.bat script of KFU i see a whole lot of "idme bootmode" instead of the nbmode and fbmode. This is w/ version .9.6 Maybe I should try an earlier version?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
Only one of those is used from within TWRP... it's prefaced by "adb shell" in the batch file. All of the others are fastboot commands and those are not affected by the missing idme in TWRP. You can modify the one affected command with the workaround I gave you and it should work as expected.

FWIW, if you are savvy enough to read through the batch file, you don't need KFU. You should be fine just running the adb/fastboot commands directly... it's all up to you though.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amuzz:
Found the line and edited it to "nbmode" and everything worked great from there. Thanks for the help!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsuppa:
I ran into pretty much the same problem last night, took me 40 minutes to realize I could hold the power button down to choose the boot type directly from there.....
[HTC One X] moshest:
Hi guys,

sorry for posting here but don't have enough posts to post in the right forum.

I have HTC One X Tegra 3 with Android Revolution HD 8.1 turned and installed the experimental performence mods in the aroma installer.

For the 2nd time in the last 2 weeks I went to sleep with almost full battery and woke up with no battery at all.

Today I looked at the battery usage and found it to be very wierd (see attached screenshotes).

The Android System is draining the battery for 5 hours then suddenly an instant drop to 0%.

Do you know why this happens and if I lose the experimental stuff will it solve it? It happened to me once with a previous version of this rom as well.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mac4rfree:
Hi Guys,

I recently upgraded myself from Wildfire to Galaxy Nexus... :)

But the signal strength i got in my Galaxy Nexus is weaker than Wildfire..

This i am not sayin only by looking at the Signal Bars,,but also while talking in calls, i can realize that.

Is there any mods or any workarounds for this..

Cheers!!!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
You can try flashing a different radio and see if it helps. Theres no perfect radio so its kinda trial and error, but some people are able to find a "best" one for them.

Aside from that, the GNex isn't known for having the best radio hardware ever, although I've never personally had issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mac4rfree:
I can see only one radio.. Can you suggest me some radios.. Thanks!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Don't just compare the signal bars, they two phones have different ranges. You have to compare dBm between the 2 phones to know. My nexus shows no signal where my other phones show bars, yet both phones have same signal.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mac4rfree:
Is there an app to check the dBm i am having?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
agree with this. bars show no useful information, it was put there for 'average folk' to have something to know if they can make a call or not, it is not a way to gauge from one phone to the next as they use different measurement methods. Not to mention each phone places it's antenna in a different location so you also should not be holding the phone when collecting signal data for comparison.

I personally have used an iphone 3 and htc inspire 4g and my gnex lets me get text messages and also maintain phone calls in areas of my apartment that the other two phones could not so I am quite happy. I didn't do dbm measurements on the iphone but on the inspire on average i would get 2-4dbm better signal strength on my gnex in areas i spend most of my time (bed, computer, work).

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...led#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEwNCwiY29tLmx1bC5nc20iXQ..

should work for measuring if you dont run cm10 or akop and can change the meter in the status bar
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerfy:
So I have an app that downloads covers for music. Most of my music doesn't have one so I thought this would help me out except every song has the same annoying cover album artwork. Not sure what to do, what do other people use for album artwork? The app I'm using is called cover art downloader
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OmgitzFire:
Google music app doesn't let you do that,

To change the album are you will need to do it manually.

Log in from your computer then click a song then click 'edit song info' and change the cover from there by selecting an image from your computer.

You may be able to do it from your web browser on your phone but I'm not so sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atifsh:
not true

works just fine used multiple apps. but found itag pro best for me but its paid app.

What do u need it for?? Gaming or fast file transfer?? Its already been explain in the link u gav n the thread i ask u to look up had already shows a few people running it for their own personal reason. I personally like sandisk.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loismustdie555:
I purchased a 32GB Class 10 Micro SDHC card for just over $30 (USD) after shipping and it works great! Very fast and great price for the quality (make sure you buy it from the default seller "Amazon" because others MAY send out fakes but the real one is great.

WRONG!! Class 10 is VERY high transfer speed where as low numbers lag like s***

Trust me, I've wasted 20 bucks on a 32GB Class 1 SDHC card and it was so slow it's not even funny, and almost nothing could read the card either, out of 6 computers in the house AND a 3DS 1 computer could read it and the 3DS said that it was not fast enough and refused to use it at all. I don't know where you heard that high class cards lag but that's wrong as there IS a VERY NOTICEABLE difference in speed between the 8GB Class 2 the XPlay shipped with and a Class 10 card and the Class 10 is WAY faster.

Proof! and More proof!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdojoin:
Hav u tried any HD games yet?? I think the lag he meant is for gaming. Just curious.:)

Kindly Hit Thanks Button if i've help u in anyway.;)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loismustdie555:
Lag for any situation is EXACTLY the same based on the read/write speed of the micro sd card meaning games all lag if you have a low class card and are faster with a high class. The faster the read speed of the card the faster the game is regardless of the game.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
Class 1 SDHC? Pretty sure that doesn't exist. Unless you mean UHS Class 1 (which stands for Ultra High Speed Class 1) which is rated at/above class 10...

edit: Actually I'm kinda scared to try this. Looking at the .bat file though all it does is appear to fastboot off an image, it doesn't push any files on until the root is complete. Is this correct? Meaning if for some reason the initial boot/root attempt fails, I should be able to recover?

It doesn't actually flash the image permantently, simply boots off of it once. Once you reboot its gone off the device. :)

Some stuff like Slacker I had to rm by hand, Titanium backup couldn't do it -- it was installed in /data/app and /data/data but was a system app. Titanium backup could back it up but when I try to uninstall it couldn't find the apk. System app not located in /system. Wierd eh? Anywayz I'm afraid I'll blow away the wrong thing and won't be able to boot so I'm being cautious....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jamonthis:
When you install an update to one of these apps lets use the, yahoo mail on for example, it will show in the /system/app or /data/app. The problem is the apk before the update is in /cust/t-mobile/us/app which is read only and unable to be mounted as R/W and that is why Titanium backup is unable to uninstall it.

I have tried moving it and deleting it manually with no luck. I have not tried through ADB yet but may give that a try next.
