[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tmtmaats:
hey guys,

i have a verizon droid incredible 2 that has s-off and is rooted, but still using the stock 2.3.3 rom. i was going abroad to visit some family, so i called up verizon, gave them my IMEI number, and voila my phone was unlocked and i could use foreign sim cards.

when i was abroad though, i could not get data to work for my phone, but i was able to make and receive calls with the new sim. after i used my cousin's phone to see if my data pack was working, her phone got a message from the sim carrier which had all the apn settings. my phone though never got the apn settings. after reading here i saw on one post that with unlocked verizon phones you have to enter the new apn's manually.

since this can be quite a nuisance, are there any custom roms for the inc2 that, once installed, can pick up the apn settings automatically? or if not, an app or any other way the inc2 can pick up the designated apn's for the new sim automatically?

(sorry if this is a noob question :laugh:, i couldnt find an answer anywhere else) :confused:

So now that we have an unlocked bootloader, is it possible to change the splash screen? Or whatever the samsung galaxy sIII screen is on boot since obviously the samsung screen is pointless to change since it's on for a while millisecond. Ha

i've searched google and they've all gone unanswered.. weird..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rom-Addict:
I believe Samsung puts the splash in the kernel, so it's not easily changed like HTC
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Irated:
I have not seen anything that would allow the actual galaxy sIII splash screen to change... Only the boot animations
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] funkme021:
it must be possible because both CM and AOKP have different splash screens .. anyone have any luck as of yet .. i love AOKP but im really not a fan of a big pink unicorn everytime i boot my phone

Nobody really asked for this, but I wanted it...so I made it. Take that, selfless Android community!!!

Destructions:

1. Download the zip file

2. Move the zip file. (to your sd card, external preferrably but it really doesnt matter since you don't have to wipe)

3. Reboot to your strapper of choice (safestrap, bootstrap)

4. Install the zip file.

5. Reboot

6. ...

7. Profit!

Note: Don't install the zip immediately after installing the ROM, that's the only time I ever had trouble with it. The darn thing just wouldn't boot...other than that, it's been pretty flawless in my not-so-humble opinion.

I really haven't had any guinea pigs on this yet, so any feedback would be much appreciated. I successfully installed this MOD on 1.5mr1, mr2.3, and mr2.4 on my .232 base.

Thanks to barrmy (rootzwiki, help with smali edits), nitroglycerine33 (xda, for the original mod), and DLuke (droidforums, icons)

edit: i need 10 posts to put links up, so if people really need this they can go search for me on rootzwiki (username: shindo). Theres a post there for 1.5mr1 and the link is towards the end (page 15 at the time of this post)

I am definatly interested and will do it ASAP if it will install to the Stock (Rooted) .232 ICS Base leak. Can you verify this? I am not interested in running a custom ROM (via safestrap) until the bootloader is unlocked I only want one ROM on my phone (kind of like my woman, one is enough, LoL). Like that'l ever happen, damn Verizon.

My work has given me a 4g aircard, and while I know that i can use tether with my phone to get internet in a jam on the infinity I would like to be able to utilize the aircard since 1.) It has no data limit 2.) it doesn't drain the battery of my cellphone 3.) it is easier to just plug it in than tether my phone.

So here is the question.

This is the card that my company gave me: https://m.verizonwireless.com/shop/details/All_Phones/v/5632

Is there any way to get the infinity to recognize it and use it? I am assuming this requires VZaccess manager to work on android, I have found no support for that.

When I plug in the card it lights up, and think it is an ethernet port, but does not allow me the option to connect.

any thoughts?

OK, so i take my lunch money and bought a Goophone Y5, at least that is what the newandroidsale.com website said it was.

Anyway I would like help identifying it. It came in a iPhone 4s box and sale writing on back. Inside the battery is soldered in and the model number is NEW-H910-KAIY-75.

It has MTK6575 chipset and it also has a sticker inside that says A10 on it across the sd card.

I see several models that have the same specs can anyone help me. I installed a software called snap pea that is like the google play, but in Chinese. And me not being from the orient have stumbled my way through updates and got the latest gplay but it crashes after i out my account info in.

I have rooted it but when i reboot to recovery i get the dead droid red triangle.

Any help would be appreciated, private message me if you want...

Many Thanks.....

Here is the homepage for the box

http://androidtvbox.us/

I originally ran across this on ebay and after a little bit of googling found the home page. I ordered one yesterday and hopefully will have it by Friday since it shipped from the Orlando area and I'm in Lauderdale. Anyways I emailed the company last night around 11pm and within 5 minutes I got a reply, then shot some emails back and forth a bit today. It seems like they are shooting for the mass market but so far have only appealed to the power users so based off feedback so far they have switched gears(that's basically a quote from the email I got today) Also I was hoping there would be a thread about one of these boxes but cannot seem to find one here which is a bit surprising. So I will be posting a review this weekend for you guys to take a look at. I figure it has to be better than this damn Revue box I have running x86 lol.

-----UPDATE-----

I had a chance to play with it a bit Froday evening. Upon first boot it prompted me to update it and everything seemed to go through without a hitch. But after it rebooted it, it prompted me again and then froze. I eventually pulled the plug, grabbed the image from the website and updated it with that and since then it's been rock solid.

Now to the good stuff. The remote it comes with does not have good range at all. My couch is maybe 8 feet away and I felt it to be very unresponsive but to be honest the remote is pointless once you just add a 2.4ghz mouse to the equation. I spent two hours messing aroudn with the damn remote until I remebered I could just use a wireless mouse. After that everything was much easier. I added both my gmail accounts with ease, browsed the store and downloaded my apps. I even installed the latest xbmc(neon) nightly from my SMB share. Video playback with the default player works perfect even over wireless, just lacks subtitle support. For now as long as its less then 720p xbmc can handle it just fine with sub support.

I will post more once I get a chance to play with it more, but for $88 this box blows my google tv away.

You must have of not opened the link as it has two dowloads for Flash, one standalone, and one Dolphin Browser.

Here, in fact, a small guide to follow to install Adobe Flash Player 11.1.115.12:

1) Download the file. Apk of Flash Player:http://www.mediafire.com/?lqxd6qnr63kj2t1

Download the file flash_player version 11.1.102.59.apk:http://d-h.st/o1I

Dolphin Browser HD 8.5.1 APK (Supports Flash):http://d-h.st/3ZS

2) Copy your files to the SD card of your Android device. (Be it tablet or smartphone, it makes no difference)

3) Install it using any File Manager.

4) Start the Browser

5) Go into the Browser settings and uncheck the option of Flash Player (on demand or always on at your discretion)

6) Finally you have the latest version of Flash also Android!

NB Adobe Flash Player is not officially supported and therefore the speed of loading of Flash objects in HTML pages is not guaranteed at the highest levels. However, as tested, Flash Player behaves well with satisfactory results.

I've been really looking at these device too. As far as I can tell its not at all like any google TV. Basically its a device that runs android like a tablet or a phone but somewhat optimized for a TV interface.

Anyone used the droidmote server on this or something similar?
[Member-Found Deals] federico72:
My advice? Don't buy it and wait for something better.

I bought two G-Box, DroidMote works well out of the box.

The problem is THE BOX: forget Playstation or N64 emulators, forget good overall SPEED.

It's a 1Ghz CPU (not 1.2Ghz):

and the Mali400 is a 266mhz overclocked to 400mhz:

I asked for technical specs but I didn't see yet.

Like other android tv box without a mouse/keyboard set or DroidMote is impossible to use it and the remote control offers minimal assistance.

I experienced lots of out of sync when you play Youtyube or Vimeo video, especially using wifi, MxPlayer plays mkv video fine if you use the software audio decoder.

Netflix runs on 480p (due to Netflix apk limitation) with a ridiculous supersmall subtitles size.

You need MarketEnabler or you will find just few applications.

There is a minimal assistance from developers but now their forum is down.

This thing should be better than an MK802, but I can't see a huge improvement.
[Member-Found Deals] federico72:
I've update just now my second box to the latest rooted firmware available and now it's bricked: blank screen and NO RECOVERY MODE!

it in my standards is the same as a htc hd2 1ghz

but does the job

i successfully updated the rom to latest 28/08/2012

all videos play smooth with built in player and mobo player,\

full app store available (play store)

accepts all usb connections keyboard mouse webcam wireless mouse etc all by default.

720p tested and working (don't have any 1080p stuff on my pc as the 1080p size per TV show is stupid unless u really like the tv show per ep to be 2gb)

on all codecs and resolutions the hdmi audio was out of sync, only if u look close but

ayes all HDMI audio is out of sync by maybe 0.010 to 0.900 didn't notice it at first but after awhile i saw it

from start to finish out of sync audio on hdmi audio.

this happens on all videos players

the worst performer was BSplayer would not go over 10-12 fps on anything

and all else works fine

youtube plays youtubes :)

office opens docs

exploerer

ap killer is needed i think :)

browser works

i'm not sure if audio out of sync my a few ms is cos of hdmi audio and not main audio out port but still i notice it

other than that

i got mine for 100+50 postage 150$US total i went toget my friend on and its 250$ total now

the price jumped 100$ overnight

lucky me , but ill either custom rom it, or keep it as is

have not tested wifi or ethernet streaming yet
[Member-Found Deals] federico72:
It's the same hardware of the classic G-box except for two additional usb ports and the lack of RCA A/V outputs. Even the firmware is the same. The MALI400 used is OVERCLOCKED to 400mhz. They gave this information in their (dead) forum and MALI400 is the name of the chip. Sincerely I'm a little scared about these things...

Yeah, with many applications missing (skype, netflix...). You need to use MarketEnabler, available on their DL page to have FULLY market. On the next release (rev V) they will add a fully operational maket. :)

Use MX Player with SOFTWARE audio decoding.

both are working fine with Netflix.

Androidtvbox.us is now selling other products now based on AMLogic A9 soc, the unique compatible with XBMC till now.

I'll wait the new products based on RockChip RK3066 dual core with enough performance to do the job well. For now I'm stick with this one but sure I'm not happy.
