When I went to college the first time, I was going for a BS in physics too. I got all the way with only 4 classes until I graduated. Then I cracked and couldn't do any math at all. I couldn't even add up golf scores or bar tabs. Quit school for 2-3 years and went back and got my history degree.

This was a long time ago, but when I was in the program, was the same time that Linux (not Unix) came out and when I first learned about kernels and command lines. I still dabble in the physics program. Actually, I have employee access the the internal CERN website (don't ask) and I am on there quite frequently.

Younix, if you have any questions, please feel free to PM me. Also take a look at my profile, you'll see something funny in my "Interests" section.
[Vibrant General] younix258:
Wow huge coincidence huh? Saw the advanced physics thing.. nice lol.

So what do you think? Is it a good career/degree choice?

Alright, I'm sure some people will get a little crazy about this subject but I'm just wondering what others think...

We all love our Android devices and how open and free they feel but some of us like the "quality" of an iPhone..

I've been debating whether to stick to android or try out iOS. Now I know how great android is and how limited iOS can be but I haven't been able to find anything where someone talks about rooted android devices vs JB'd iPhones.. we all the android is better than an iPhone when they are both not hacked or rooted but what do you guys think is the better device for development and features after its been hacked?

I've seen some pretty cool stuff on iPhone but I also love how we can replace our stock apps to have different themes or better functions,etc.

I basically just want to know what everyone's thoughts our about this.

Android > iPhone

/thread
[Off-topic] veeman:
Android still has more features/customizability/ whateveryouwannacallit after it's been 'hacked'. And a lot of the newer Android phones have just as good build quality as the iPhone.
[Off-topic] WiredPirate:
Android OS is superior regardless if it is Rooted or iOS is Jailbroke or not. From what I hear JBing an iDevice makes it slow and unstable, whereas rooting and Android device can only improve its performance. Jailbreaking doesn't get you out of the garden, it only puts a hole in the wall you can look out. Now if you were to say you would like to carry both I can understand, but just trading from Android to iOS is a bad idea development wise.

Edit: I am Android biased of course, but long story short you can see from my sig I do have some value for iOS. If I had to choose only one it would be Android, easy choice. But I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy owning both. Although I think an iPhone over an Android phone would be a huge mistake for anybody except older people that are unfamiliar with tech.

OP...I'm not seeing the need to get an iPhone other than buying into the hype about Apple products. You know darn well that Android devices can do the same and more. If you want the iPhone look, use a MIUI rom.

There's tons of threads in this forum alone comparing Apple vs. Android and the consensus most of the time is Android devices are better.

[Off-topic] CrisisCorE:
I had the chance to use both of them and prefer android devices for a long list of reasons. I bought an ipad because well everyone on teh interwebs said it was best and that android tablets were not ready yet. after 2months i sold it, i wouldve sold it earlier but i wanted to wait for the ipad 2 jailbreak in case it improved anything. indeed it could add some features at the cost of stability and speed. at tnis time i already had an android phone and knew that android was moar capable especially when rooted, and so i sold my ipad to get a galaxy tab plus, and i would never switch back.

reasons for idevices were the higher density of high quality apps, which by now isnt true anymore. spontaneously i would say, unless you really really need that one app which is ios only, dont get an idevice.
[Off-topic] xaccers:
You're far too nice :D
[Off-topic] killjoy1179:
I know there are other post like this but they haven't helped me in any way...yea I would love to carry both devices...if I could then I wouldn't have created this thread..I had an itouch before and I enjoyed it for a very long time...but when your look at iOS it seems more complete. Yea I love android and if I were to switch it would be difficult...another reason, look at the support for jb'd idevices...with android phones if u want good development then your selection of phones is really slimmed down.....for example, at Verizon they have a lot of cool phones, one of the best out now is the razr, but there's crappy development because of a locked bootloader...so its like if you don't get a nexus( or similar device) then your basically s.o.l. when it comes to development.. I think most people can agree that it sucks that u can't get the phone that you really want because you know there isn't great support behind it

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobitronics:
Hello guys,

Just a quick noob question to which I get different answers: If I flash from yakjuxw to yakju and choose to flash a custom recovery, will I be able to receive OTA updates?

Thanks in advance :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
You will receive them, but you won't be able to install them if your recover isn't stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
To add to what Petrovski80 said, you wont be able to install the update over-the-air, but you will be able to install it by downloading it to /sdcard and rebooting into CWM and installing it from there.

EDIT: And in most cases, you will likely see the update here before you get it over-the-air on your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobitronics:
And if I have flashed mods/kernels through CWM and i install the update, will the mods be preserved or do I have to flash them again?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
If you flash "mods/kernels", the update will NOT install. If you change any of the original stock files, the update will NOT install.

Anyone been able to find a case like this for our Tf700?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbiKhO7-hGk&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Formed to the tablet on the back and clips on nicely with a nice cover similar to one made for Ipads?

I've been looking and can't find one
[Asus Transformer TF700] macaumen:
I am also looking for something like that. A thin book case protecting both the front and back. So far I have only seen those which make the tablet very bulky. That ruin my infinity!

[Asus Transformer TF700] kubeb:
I've looked on all available cases for the TF700. All of them are bulky and miss the point of having such a slick and beautiful device.

I need a case that is slim and should be able to give me an angel for type writing.

As anyone seen such a case?

The only one I can think of is the transleeve but there are hard to get outside US.

I installed the Rom SuperNexus - Build 2 and I cant complain everthing works good but I have one Problem sometimes when I press the lock button nothing happens and I cant do anything anymore I have to take out the battery and put it in again so the phone restarts. This also sometimes happens in some Apps. It doesent have to do anything with some kind of Apps because this also happend when I installed the ROM. Does anybody know what I can do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
What kernel are you using?

Did you do all necessary wipes while flashing the Rom?

I used Siyah beta6, Dorimanx and the Stock one (atm I am using Dorimanx) that was installed with SuperNexus all of them have the same Problem. Yes everything was wiped Dalvik, Cache and data/factory reset
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barbiox Dogg:
Were you on ICS before flashing SuperNexus and if the answer is yes, did you restore apps+data using Titanium Backup. This may seem to be the problem because the apps+data were from ICS and it may cause instability/force close for certain apps & user performance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexj.:
No I didnt restore any apps from ICS I just installed them again from Play Market.

They are all blocky and jagged. i think the phone is doing HDMI mirror and upscaling to 1080/24p. However, video playback looks good. Is it possible to change HDMI out resolution? The dev at HTC EVO managed to get change resolution in the kernel. We have the kernel source too. Can we do the same too?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] benzmar:
Hi all,

Recently I received Cisco CIUS from my organization. Its a tablet like phone with docking station. It works on android 2.2.2 version with Kernel version 2.63.1.6-mrst and build number described as FRG83G.9.2.4.45

This is a lot outdated platform, and Cisco will not be upgrading this version anymore. Wanted your help if I can upgrade to 2.3 for a 7 inch tablet or can it be upgraded to Honeycomb at least.

There are lots of apps which I am not able to install in this present 2.2.2 CIUS.

Can anyone help me with some solutions to upgrade to higher version?

Regards,

Benjamin
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] elementcarbon12:
I know this is an old post but I've recently found myself in possession of one of these tablets and got curious. It's based on Intel's Moorstown platform which makes for a few stumbling blocks like being x86 based running UEFI as it's boot loader, and will be using the security stuff in the platform to prevent the boot loader from being hacked. Because it's so far 'out there' as an android device, I don't think there is much that can be done
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] FuNKSioN:
I'd love to see something done with these as well. I've had 2 of them sitting here collecting dust for quite some time.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] unosd:
Does anyone has any news about this tablet?

I just had it today, but it doesn't seem even to log me into the Market, I would love to root it, but, at least, I would like to update it so I can log in and download some app....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bbonline:
I had my phone rooted and unlocked and was also using CleanROM 4.1 before I decided today to change to CleanROM 4.5.

So, I downloaded the file and went to Recovery and flashed it (it did take very little time with flashing which I found rather strange.) When I rebooted, the phone was stuck at the HTC screen. I figured that I MIGHT have had CWM installed and I didn't know it (I can't be quite 100% sure of this as I thought I DID have TWRP since it was a touch recovery that I had.) Since I was able to boot back up to Fastboot, I said "Let me flash the TWRP recovery file and try again".....Well, I did that and according to the Command Prompt it was successful (showed sending, writing, finished etc....) Once finished, I rebooted back and all I see now is the TeamWin logo in Recovery and THAT'S IT. It won't give me any menu options. If I let it sit, it will reboot back to the HTC screen.

What are my options right now? Is there a specific file I can flash through Fastboot that will allow me to proceed?

I would appreciate the help and I'll be sure to come back and let you know how successful I was. :fingers-crossed:

****BTW, I want to point out that my phone has had this strange message everytime it reboots (over the past few months since unlocked) stating: "This build is for development purposes only. Do not distribute outside of HTC without HTC's written permission....etc..." What does that mean? I don't like that message to appear everytime I reboot my phone. Thanks again!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] thesm4rt1:
reflash

Try flashing the boot.IMG from the the zipped ROM you were trying to flash to boot partition through the bootloader (cmd in windows: fastboot flash boot boot.img[enter] after you put The boot.img in the same folder as the adb & cd to that folder) and flash cwm for recovery, then you can reflash twrp
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bbonline:
I will definitely be trying that. Will be back in a couple of hours and let you know how it went. Thank you!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MistaButters:
In the future I suggest factory wipe even if going from CR to CR. Also, make sure to check the MD5 once you move the file on to your storage.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bbonline:
I did do the factory wipe.

By the way, I tried what I was told to do and nothing happened. It successfully flashes the boot image and recovery, but when it tries to boot into the recovery, it just freezes in the recovery with the word TEAMWIN and a blue background....No menu or options.... I did try several different ways by downloading and installing several versions of the CWM and TWRP, but no success. Any other suggestions? Will I be stuck with this piece of brick now? Please help.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MistaButters:
^That right there is normal by the way and will always be there.

Looks like it's time for you to relock your bootloader (don't worry you can unlock it again), download an RUU, and try again.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bbonline:
Ughh! Do you know if I will lose any documents/pictures that are in my USB storage? Which RUU do you think is the best in my case? Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MistaButters:
You will lose the contents of your SD card, which is why you should back that up before flashing. Since you were on CR 4.1, I would go with the 1.85 RUU. If you use 2.20, you will add an extra step or two in when it comes to flashing ROMs. But hey, your phone should work again!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bbonline:
I know, silly me. Usually I backup the data and everything goes well and when I don't, there goes my luck! I really appreciate the suggestion.

One quick question, if in the future I need to have the phone sent in for warranty, is this the same procedure I need to follow? Relock and flash an RUU? Will they not know it had been unlocked before?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MistaButters:
Exact same procedure, but yes they will know. The giant RELOCKED gives it away lol.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bbonline:
Darn.... I just hope I don't have to deal with sending it for any repair. Gave you thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
But only if they reboot and look, which from what I've seen here, they never seem to do.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MistaButters:
I took my One X back to Best Buy to swap it out just before the return policy expired because my gf dropped it and put a small dent in the casing and I didn't even bother to relock or even RUU my device. I said I had a software issue and couldn't get the OTA. They turned it on and played with it and it had a custom boot animation and a ROM on it lol. They also couldn't get the OTA so they approved the return.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] trichrome1:
it doesn't say RELOCKED when you run an RUU. It gets rid of everything like Tampered and Unlocked and returns the phone to LOCKED. like it came

hahaha, thank god for company cutbacks sometimes... it makes the employees not give a ****. and rightfully so too!!

the fact that companies cut back to make a few more billion dollars makes me sick anyways. but this is not the place for this conversation. carry-on
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
Nope once you unlocked it won't ever say locked again. Just re-locked
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] trichrome1:
not true, mine said LOCKED after running the att 1.85 RUU.. I had SUPERcid though if that makes any difference.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MistaButters:
You should probably double check that. Anybody with an AT&T One X had to have SuperCID to unlock their bootloader so that wouldn't matter. I have unlocked two AT&T One Xs and run the 1.85 RUU on both (one of them a couple times) and I have run the 2.20 RUU on one. every time it says RELOCKED.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] josh3794:
Mine did this to when going to 4.5.

I did the following to get back into Recovery.

Use fastboot to flash the boot.img from the cleanrom 4.5 zip.

"fastboot flash boot boot.img"

I then flashed the recovery (TWRP 2.2.1.4 at the moment) again to the phone.

next I erased Cache.

"fastboot erase cache"

I then used the phone itself to reboot the bootloader and went into recovery. It took about 10 minutes but recovery finally booted.

At this point I had no access to anything on the SD card. so I selected mount and mounted the sd card as disk drive to access it through my PC. I was forced to format the drive at this point and loaded a fresh copy of the ROM onto the drive for flashing.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] phidung3721:
You probably just got a wrong recovery. The recovery on twrp website didn't work for me. The one I downloaded from the development section works fine.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
Screenshots PLS:eek:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
you might of flashed recovery to where the boot.img goes. i did this before and phone kept booting into recovery over and over again. just reflash the recovery and boot.img from the cr4.5 zip.

Latley when I upload photos to Instagram, after I crop the photo (a step which Instagram does before uploading every time), when I proceed, it says "saving photo" then goes to the screen where you have the option to add a filter. But once I reach this point, for some reason the phone has decreased the quality of the photo, it always look pixelized and looks terrible. anybody know why this phone does this for this app?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Jax184:
I thought "looking terrible" was what instagram was all about. :p

(I'm a DSLR-wielding photosnob.)
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] eMJaaay:
^ haha :P

OP: Instagram on Android is kind of laggy / buggy, etc :/ I can only suggest you try their in-app camera and see if that makes a difference or before uploading to Instagram, manually crop your photos into a square? I've uploaded from my phone camera a few times but usually just share the photos I've taken on my DSLR!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] TheLastSidekick:
Yeah, Instagram on Android is very weird. For our devices, like 2 months ago you couldn't even find it on the Market, but if you went to the Play Store on your computer, and you had your Sidekick synced with Google, you could install Instagram from your PC by clicking "Install" and it would automatically be downloaded and installed on your phone.

The thing about this is, I don't think Instagram directly supports the Sidekick, (does any app really, other than Tegrak?)
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] youngzae:
when I first got Instragram it didnt mess up the quality like it does now. Its really annoying

Hi,

So I was flasing MGDLR last night. About halfway through it got stuck. I waited 30 min and it was still stuck so I uplugged and removed the battery to try again. Now the phone won't turn on at all. I am thinking the bootloader is corrupt. I have tried a diff. battery and charging....nothing. Is there some way to reset the CMOS(or something equivalent)?

Thank you
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Does it get into any mode (download, format)? Download mode? Have you tried with a jig?
[Focus General] laxonite:
Thanks for your reply. I have fixed the phone. Today I plugged it in once more and checked Device Manager to see if anything popped up.Sure enough samsung mobile modem came up(although the screen was still blank). I used wp7 downloader to restore and voila the screen lit up. Not sure what mode if any it was in. Any ideas?

Thanks again
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Sounds like a bootloader problem.
