[HTC Sensation] banasik72:
Hi I need to return to stock and lock bootloader! Cant seem to find the TMOUS file I need and cant even get ADB to work right! Whenever I press ADSB or Fastoot on the PC a bunch of screens flash and nothing! Is there a guide I can use? Im hboot 1.27 unlocked thru HTC site and running the ARHD TMOUS rom. I know I need to lock bootloader first, but tried 2 PCs with ADB files from July - and same outcome! Then, the only RUU tmous ICS file I can find is a .exe and cant even download it.

PS, yes debugging is enabled

Im using the USB in back of my PC

Maybe Ill try updating the HTC drivers, since I cant even get ADB to work!

[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
OK so have you tried to blind boot the phone with a ruu-rom.zip on a sdcard? If this has not worked you may be out of luck. Jtag is always an option but you would need to find someone who has one/knows how to use it. The HTC sensation forums has a unbricking process that helps with people that do a wrong s-on and get stuck in download mode. You may be able to ask them for help or use some of there ideas to make solution. Giving credit where its due ofc :)
[HTC Wildfire S] crumfret:
I am pretty sure thats what I did. Its where you load the PG176IMG onto the phone and try the volume up,wait,volume up thing?

I tried it, but could not find a CLEAR way to do it. All sites gave me different things. If someone could write CLEAR instructions I would probably have better luck.
[HTC Wildfire S] EdikNeznanov:
If you are getting vibrates when trying to boot your phone. do the following:

Download

earlier build with old hboot ver flashable from sd card.

google, you will find it.

backup your SD card, format it fat 32 and place this file on the root of your card. Be sure to rename it PG76IMG.zip

Once it is on your sd card, verify the MD5 to ensure the file was not corrupted during the download or during the transfer.

Hold Vol down + power. you will feel 5 vibrations

wait for a god 2 to 3 min. if everything is going correctly, your phone is verifying the IMG file and this takes a bit.

after 2 to 3 min. wait one more min

now, press vol up. this tells the phone to update.

wait 2 to 3 min for the update to happen then wait one more.

press vol up again. you should feel the phone single vibrate and then presto.. working phone again

next time be more careful

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] archer2009:
I have a couple of relatives all in their 70's & 80's that want to be able to do a few basic things online at home. Most all are customers of a TV Company that gives them Free WiFi at home as part of their package.

At first they were interested in getting a computer but I think it would be too complicated for them and one lives 2 hours away so I can't really afford the time to constantly troubleshoot windows / PC problems.

Apple products like their Laptops, iPad, etc are too expensive

But they did have a play on an iPad and they like the idea of using their fingers to navigate rather then a Mouse & Keyboard

So I suggested a Nexus 7 as being a reasonably priced alternative. But the problem is I think the user interface isn't very user friendly for people that aren't fairly technical / familiar with Android. I also think the fonts, etc would be a bit too small for them.

Are there any Themes, overlays, etc that would make things easier to use on android?

Hmm, it's geared more towards a phone but have you looked at Big Launcher in the Play store?

You will have to get a second account. Same thing happened to me.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ceo.mtcl:
OK. So do I have to factory reset it or I can just add the second account on top of the first one and I'll get the next 25.

Ps- I can try these scenarios but since I screwed up first time I wanna be careful this time. Any answer is really appreciated.

Edit: just answering my own question here... I added second account on top of first and the next 25 bucks just appeared on the second one. Thanks for everyone who replied.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cordell507:
a factory reset will work as long as you first log in with the new account

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jarredw:
From my experience with my old car that had on star was that you needed to have an active on star subscription for turn by turn directions

There is an on star app for cars '10-12

Root your car lol that's on the on star side so I don't think your gonna find a way without having a active subscription. The directions work through the on star servers/satellites
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ucpro:
I use car locator. When you park, set your location, on your way back it shows you a radar with a red dot which is your car, and a map at the bottom that shows where you and your car are located, you'll be a green dot, the car is the red dot. you basically follow the red dot until it gets to the middle of the radar, you should then be at your car

it doesn't give you turn by turn navigation though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jayram1408:
I was reading my Onstar manual and it says that it uses Verizon Wireless for cell data and connectivity. It has a big disclaimer that if you roam outside Verizon's cell tower coverage you may loose Onstar if that helps!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jayram1408:
So I am a bit late on the follow up. After a lot of research I found that General Motors cars after 2010 can be hacked thru Bluetooth. It is a service of which I have part of, I just stumbled across it. It is a guy who "hacks" car computers. Basically you have to either remove your old on-star unit and mail it in or go to the junkyard and pull one from a compatible vehicle, send it in with some vary specific info about your car such as VIN ect. A cool thing is if you have a 2007 or above you can get a computer out of a 2010 or newer and he can make that work so you can use Bluetooth to start your car from your phone, share WiFi, tether your phones DATA to your car for navigation ect and even share with others in your car. Here is the link, I get nothing from this just I got my 2009 Pontiac GT G6 done and it makes the useless On-Star useful again without paying 40 a month plus another 30 to Verizon for not the best service and a severely limited amount of DATA. Most newer cars you take out the stereo and that's half of your Driver Information Center so you cant see anything about your car and some will not EVEN START without it being present.

My phone is randomly powering off, sometimes it reboots and sometimes it just turns off and starts vibrating and the led will flash.

It does this randomly so there isn't anything specific that I do to make it act up. I have restored my stock backup and I am still getting crazy shut downs.

Does it sound like I possibly need a replacement? Thanks guys.

Hi guys! Slight newbie here...I'm using an HTC Evo V 4g for Virgin Mobile, I'm S-Off and currently running this Evo 3D MIUI ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1571021

I've noticed that I only have one core that's active. I was wondering if there were perhaps a Dual Core Mod that I could apply to this ROM? And if so, how would I do it?

Or should I maybe try a different kernel?
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
You could try a different kernel or mod, but are you sure the second core never activates. It usually stays inactive until a high enough load on the first core causes it to be needed.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] mtmerrick:
My sister really wants a pocketable music player/camera/ of some kind. Mom won't get her a phone and is therefore considering an iPod touch, even though my sister shares my hatred of apple products. All said, an android PMP would be perfect for her.

No, an old phone without cellular access would not be ok, my mom... its easier not to try to explain, she just isn't ok with that. =P

So, I went to look up the Samsung Galaxy Players (as the only android PMPs i know are Samsung and Archos, and the Archos ones look disappointing) and i found there were no complete/reliable spec sheets anywhere on the internet >_< information was either vague (EG unspecified 1 GHz processor) or conflicting.

I'm looking between the Galaxy players 4.0, 4,2, and 5.0.

Which is better? screen size and internal storage do not matter as much as screen resolution, RAM, CPU, and SD card. I'm looking to get the best one i can buy at this point, not the best bang-for-your-buck one.

also, i found this device on GSMArena:

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_player_70_plus-4633.php

Anyone know anything about it?

As i said, there's not much on the internet about the galaxy players. Any help from you guys would be appreciated :)

NOTE: yes, i consider a 5" screen pocketable. So does my sister. A 7" tablet (EG nexus 7), however, is not, so that's not an option.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] arceusg:
They all suffer from lack of RAM at this point. Maybe you should wait for a new model to be released...if they ever release one. Personally I like the 5.0 because of its screen size, and that's about it. As a PMP they all work fine. In terms of processing power the 4 and 5 are the same, not sure about the 4.2. both the 4 and 5 are SD Card expandable, again not sure about the 4.2. Lastly, that device you linked to looks very promising. Kinda like a Galaxy Player 5.0 2! I hadn't even heard of it until you. To sum it all up, They all work well as PMP's, and they all perform pretty similarly. That 70+ looks way better than any of the previous models, so if you could get your hands on that, go for it.

-arceusg
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1720457 All specs are here. However I say the 4.0 is the best because it's more the all rounder PMP player, but the 5.0 has more custom roms. All the spec sheets for all galaxy player are found on Samsung's site. You click tech specs, and then hit the PDF file above.

Do you only want "Android only" players, because there are some other good ones too. The Sony Walkman Z is also android only and is dual core. You can try looking at the Cowon J3, or D3. But I would wait because Samsung is probably going to release a new Galaxy Player. That Device you linked is the Galaxy Player 70 Plus. It is Samsungs first dual core player, but it was only released in Korea. It is based of the Galaxy S2, similar to how the Galaxy player 4.0 is similar to the GS1.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
It would be best to wait for the upcoming YP-GP1 with ICS,dual core and qHD.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] euphoriaflow:
The new model that's supposed to be released is similar to a Galaxy S3, however, it will be a whopping 5.8 inches, like, mini tablet sized.

I'd say go with the 4.2, it looks better, and quality is better as well, and as long as she's not going to be a heavy gamer of some sorts, she'll be fine with it.

Otherwise, if you plan to put a custom rom, I would say 5.0, although I dont have one myself (I have a 4.0) , since it has more ROMS to choose some, even though 4.0 looks promising.

There's also the Walkman Z, which is Sony's android PMP, and it looks alright, 1 GB of RAM, great if she's going to be a heavy user, although I don't own one of these either, so I have no real experience with it.

Anyways, maybe you should show her some of the choices, and let her pick from them herself.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] mtmerrick:
*googles* oh yeah, i remember reading about that when it was first leaked. Looks perfect. Think it'll be out in time for Christmas?

5.8 sounds sweet, actually :)

she mainly wants it for music, web browsing, and games (mainly angry birds, minecraft PE, and fruit ninja), and i plan to throw GrooveIP on there eventually :)

ROMs aren't that important, but i do plan to help her root eventually.

Didn't know any of the walkmans were android powered, i'll have to check that out :)

and i do plan to let her make the final decision, if they're close. however, i want to give her the best options, not every option. I'm sure you understand.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:

DAC

It is also worth pointing out that the 4.0 (and 4.2 I think) has better sound quality because it has the wolfson DAC (5.0 has yamaha which is not bad but not as good either). You can enable voodoo sound on 4.0

4.0 also has better screen dpi because the resolution is more fitting on the screen size. 5.0 is better for movies IMO but be prepared to see some pixels :cyclops:

Right now the Walkman Z is looking like the best overall device, even with its lack of removable storage. Only things that irks me about it is the charging cable and the lack of cameras.

Ultimately, there's no best or worst, it's about what's best for you. For this reason i have both the SGS 3.6 and 5.0. I like the 3.6 for its small size and extreme pocketability. I also use it as a bluetooth handsfree with my 7" 3G tablet. I love my 5.0 for the size of it's screen. It's still pocketable and i take it with me to outings and on weekends. It's very good for comfortably surfing the net on that large 5" screen or watching an odd movie.
