[Verizon Droid Charge] Chocoburger:
Well I'm a pessimist, and I doubt it very much that we'll see any type of major OS improvement. But if it happens, cool! I can just imagine seeing all the *****ing and moaning when Jelly Bean updates arrive but pinch-to-zoom or double-tap-to-zoom is removed because of Apple's B.S. patents.

Edit: Oh, I just saw that Apple wants to ban the Droid Charge! LOL!

http://www.androidcentral.com/apple-outlines-which-devices-theyll-seek-bans-us

That's cute. Sure, ban this phone! :p
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Oh damn, the Charge is banned. Looks like they'll have to move me to an S3 :P

/sarcasm
[Verizon Droid Charge] ijustdontcare:
Well we all know it because of touchjizz, its an amazingly original launcher! Haha ha. Just ditch that and we are g2g.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
The way I see this is a win win situation for us. Samsung will give us a new update and our XDA devs will put back what ever Apple forced Samsung to be removed. Nice!
[Verizon Droid Charge] tmanschuette:
This would be an awesome turn around from the apple situation.

Tweaked 2.2 PBJ and Transparent ICS 5.0 Beta
[Verizon Droid Charge] Cilraaz:
Your biggest problem is that AOSP Jelly Bean is bigger than your /system partition. Add in TouchWiz and it's a lot bigger than your /system partition. Without some dev wizardry, the odds of getting JB on the Charge is zero, unfortunately.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ijustdontcare:
I know this, and the biggest issue is actually touchwiz to start with. That is the basis of the law suit. Too many similarities in the way it works, and acts for a$$le to not take offence.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
JT said we have enough room for AOSP JB.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rice923:
even if we get it to fit, it may not work as smoothly as it should due to a total lack of adequate hardware. Check out the G1 and the Moto Droid1 running JB. Super old phones in comparison to the Charge, but they got JB on it. Sadly, they are WAY slower than the stock ROM since the hardware can barely keep up.

Not saying JB can't be done on our devices though, cuz I'm not a dev after all. I'm just some dude on the internet :p

edit: my cousin's Infuse is currently running JB CM10, and it has practically the same hardware as us. It's smoother than stock, but certain things are still sloooooow (such as rendering images for Google Maps). That being said though, JB was still an improvement over stock.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
For our Droid Charge, nothing can beat TWEAKED STOCK.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Cilraaz:
I had AOSP JB (4.1 leak from Google IO) on my Nexus and listed it's /system usage in another thread. Another poster listed the size of the /system partition on the Charge, as I no longer have mine to check. The AOSP JB image was larger than the Charge's /system partition. I'm not certain how it could possibly fit at that point.

Old post quotes:

Edit: Now, the 4.1 leak may have been overly large for one reason or another. I checked my CM10 installation and it's showing 356MB usage. Take out the CM10 extras, and it might barely fit on the Charge's /system partition. The problem there is that Samsung won't give AOSP for the Charge, so TouchWiz will definitely push it over. Outside of a Samsung release, the Charge is screwed for JB by the same thing that is screwing it for ICS: the RIL.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
It already does fit on /system. We have a CM10 build for the Charge with the same limitations as our old CM9 build.

Maybe we'll get lucky and TouchJizz will get b&ed too.
[Verizon Droid Charge] sasquatch080:
JT needs more dev support and or help to crack the RIL. Its possible, like they did with the sgs3. That's the gate keeper of our Charge. IMO.

[HTC Rezound] KyubiDiaz:
So I updated my rezound to the newest RUU minus the Global roam ota, still s-on, but i got courageous and tried to s-off my device yesterday using control bear...it didnt work, so my questions are as follows, does the new RUU make it difficult to get s-off? and how do I revert to a RUU that will allow me to do s-off? any help would be awesome. i tried to use an older RUU but when the bootloader scanned the ph98img.zip, it only scanned it but never went thru any of the motions to change the system. fml

KyubiDiaz
[HTC Rezound] topgun1953:
I think it would help if you told us what problem you had. Did you unlock and flash amon ra and root after the ruu and before s_off attempt?
[HTC Rezound] KyubiDiaz:
yes i was already rooted and im using twrp2 for recovery. am i supposed to just be rooted without recovery? and yes everything before s-off attempt
[HTC Rezound] mclass55:
I S-off with the new RUU without the global update.. It takes a lot to get the timing right, but it works
[HTC Rezound] KyubiDiaz:
seriously??? so itll still work?
[HTC Rezound] mclass55:
yes, I used Hasoon2000's S Off Toolkit. First I tried it using a laptop and windows 7, and for some reason it didnt work. Then I used my desktop with XP and it loaded. Then it was all about the timing with the wire. Took about 75 times, but it worked!
[HTC Rezound] CJeep:
I also got s off after installing the global RUU. It was a PITA, but eventually worked, just like mclass.
[HTC Rezound] mclass55:
Hell yea it was a pain in the ass, I was about to give up, but finally got it.
[HTC Rezound] TUDrewser:
I tried on my wife's to s-off, failed, flashed a 605.5 stock rom and ran the 605.5 controlbear and finally got it. Then flashed the global RUU, re-unlocked, and flashed inef deus (based on the global). Working great now. FWIW, he doesn't say it will work with other ROMs/RUUs...says it might, but then gives the combos that work well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nyy020:
I just rooted my Galaxy Nexus and installed Rom manager and Titanium Backup. This isn't my first time rooting and i think i some what of a grip on the process.

I did a full backup in Rom manager and set up a system data backup on certain apps on a schedule through Titanium. I synced Titanium to Drop box and every time a backup is made, it is automatically sent to my Drop box account. This is how i back up my phone because of the lack of a SD card on the GN. The files do show up in my drop box account and I attempted to drag and drop the files back onto my phone, simulating a new phone and attempting to recover my important data, but Titanium does not recognize these files.

How do I take the back ups from my computer, through drop box, and put the files back on my phone so i can restore my data through Titanium?

Also, when i did a full backup through Rom manager, Im not sure of how i get that file onto my computer. It doesn't show up on my phone when i connect my phone to the computer.

I hope I'm making myself clear and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TRusselo:
Titanium backup is not directly compatible with Nandroid backups (rom manager style).

Titanium backup has an alternate feature of being able to extract backup info from nandroids though.

open titanium backup > Menu button > Extract from nandroid backup > select backup > scan... > select apps/data ...

done.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nyy020:
Thanks for the reply... everyone else would rather scold me for posting this in the wrong spot than help a dude out...

I did notice that feature in ROM manager, but I'm still not sure how to put that backup onto my computer. If there was a way to save my nandroid backup to my computer via Drop box or just dragging and dropping while connected through USB, I wouldn't have to use Titanium, which would be great.

Anyone having issues with this app? It used to work well with GB and after ICS it still would work but the "deepsleep" would never reset after plugging in. Didn't bug me much but just after the latest update few days ago it no longer works at all. Just says" No reference set yet" Is it just mine or anyone else having similar issues? did a reinstall and same problem also did a clear data and still broke.

[HTC Rezound] topgun1953:
Yeah its been messed up awhile. Emailed the dev and sent him a logcat about month ago. Nothing back. I restored a backup and refuse updates.
[HTC Rezound] jdfrye:
On that note I backed up all my installed apps using airdroid.

Help me to find out the Apps Causing Drain!!

Hi all,

I have some abnormal battery drain in my mobile, so i tried to find the root cause for this. I just ended up in BBS, where i could see some kernel wakelocks, Alarm wakelock causing drain.

Attached is the dumpfile (Generated from BBS) along with Another Dump Alarm file (dumpsys alarm > AlarmManager.txt)

I Have analysed (with Google, yes!!) upto my knowledge and Unistalled some apps and Disabled Location Services and Backup (under Settings-Privacy). Apart from that i am clueless! Just posting these results for you guys have a look at it.

Kindly Help me to figure it out Guys!!
[HTC Rezound] topgun1953:
I don't think that is horrible. You were running 6 hrs with screen on of 1hr 8min. and you dropped to 48%...Your awake time was 1hr59...the backup service is still a main culprit...not sure if that is the thing backing up your data to your provider or not. TIP: You log shows you are running an incredible S ...so post there. Also, go to the BBS thread I posted above (if you haven't already)...the people looking at that on a regular basis can provide more assistance! :D:D:good:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ophois:
They would probably send you a Gnex or something of the same level of the E4GT.

That being said, What you are talking about is fraud and could get you in a heap of trouble.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
Gnex isnt bad haha
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] juggalo1300:
I must agree it can get you into some deep doo doo. But im curious about the replacement thing also. Most likey a photon or a gnex
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
A photon will be a huge downgrade. Probably a Gnex, I will check since will be going to tech center because of Phantom menu pop ups its getting annoying.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oshinqwe:
I think it won't happen unless Samsung loses the appeal also
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TerryMathews:
That wouldn't be the case. It would ban new sales. Asurions devices are "already sold."
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
They'll still be required to sell or replace with w.e stock of E4GT they have left. And I bet there are a bunch of E4GT refurbs in stock to get rid of before they can replace your phone with another phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JediNinjafication:
Uhh..gnex was banned a while ago but the van was lifted until outcome of this trial. Wouldn't be getting one of those.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rantoca:
Well i can said this

On my case my sisters is on my account and her phone took a accident (photon) ,i call for the replacement phone and they send the same phone but was bad the mic don't function and decide to call again for the replacement and the photon was placed on BO( back order) and the photon of the same equivalent was the Evo 3D .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
By the time the appeals over, we will all have new phones I'm sure..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cp320703:
Uhhh...The injunction was lifted when Google pushed the necessary changes to universal search actually, which was the only reason there was one in the first place.... so the nexus is in the clear

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jonathanclary:
I came from a Photon. Went into Sprint threw my bricked Photon on the counter and said I wanted a phone I can develope without a nazi locked bootloader and the girl came back with E4GT. Best trade I coulda done Free too no assurance bs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cp320703:
Google pushed a new quick search apk that disabled local results, Google it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Ahh, but that's the beauty of Boost and other MVNOs - they can shift the ESNs to their pools and dump the stock VERY quickly if they wanted to. And with NV continuing to roll out to major cities - we're supposedly up in November - I wouldn't be surprised.

OTOH perhaps this will motivate my MVNO to get the S3. But have to wait until June anyhow for the renewal discount.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] parkslope:
The judge who will decide, Lucy Koh, is the one who issued a preliminary injunction that halted sales of the Galaxy Tab 10.1.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] quickquest88:
thats not true. the photon equivalent is the epic touch. i went through 2 photons and asked for a different phone. they gave me an epic touch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fazulka:
It is impossible to say what they will send you. It seems to be either a lateral move (similar range phone) or an upgrade. I have gotten 2 replacements from asurion in the past 2 years. I had an EVO 4g. I dropped it and the screen broke, they replaced it with an EVO 3d. The EVO 3D recently broke in my pocket (I have no idea how, I must have crushed it leaning over something) and they sent me the E4GT. The 3D is a generation newer than the EVO 4g, so that is an upgrade, and the SGS2 E4GT is similar spec'd to the E3D, so that seems lateral. That said, if I could choose any the E4GT seems to be the best of the bunch. My upgrade is in October but I think I will keep this for now!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Masterface7:
I would guess they would have to send you another phone with wimax to match the e4gt. Whatever has a matching price on their website.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtr145r:
thats called insurance fraud...

shame on you.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xsenman:
Your IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) is transmitted to the Network provider the moment you switch ON your phone

It is used by your Network to identify the following

1) The first two numbers is RBI (Reporting Body Identifier) = who registered that type of phone ( verify here )

2) The next four numbers is TAC (Type Allocation Code) = what type of unit and its complete specifications

3)The next two numbers is FAC (Final Assembly Code) = who manufacture it

example :-

01 AEG

04 Samsung

07 Motorola

10 Nokia

30 Ericsson

41 Siemens

50 Bosch

51 Sony

4) The next six numbers is the Serial Number of the Phone

5) The last number is sort of a check sum, that verifies the previous numbers

Combined a total of 15 numbers is used by your network to get the complete information about your phone that is used against their database of Blacklisted phones and final approval to connect to their network, IF they were

inaccurate or had complaints

(like being stolen, not paid telecoms dues etc) it will be rejected and BLOCKED immediately from connecting to that Network

You can verify all this by entering you IMEI here and here

And also here to check if it is blacklisted

Your IMEI is also needed for networks to BLOCK your phone when needed as well as ANTI theft apps.

Hence if your IMEI changes or gets lost, it may fail to connect to the network, depending on the restrictions of that network provider.

It is clear that Flashing custom ROMS can cause your IMEI to Change or get deleted as they may be ported from another manufacturer or from another version of the same manufacturer as the IMEI embedded in the chip of your phone.

IF you want to AVOID this problem,

safe you EFS folder the moment you think of Flashing any ROM that is NOT the original Firmware

for that phone

It is noted that to resolve this problem you have to return to its original firmware to recover your embedded IMEI and do a progressive upgrade . eg. from GingerBread to ICS before going on to Jelly Bean

I believe this is also possible as some of the manufacturers are using more than one FAC (Final Assembly Code) and some do have the same FAC....end of the day only the manufacturer would have chosen what they wish to use, on the other hand the checksum of the 15 numbers in total, should give the correct model and specs to the network .

[Galaxy S I9000 General] knuckles1978:
I had this very problem tonight. Flashed back to stock to try and fix a camera problem, then just installed cm10 to fix the partitions and applied my JB backup.

That's when I hit the imei problem. When I copied the efs folder across and rebooted it didn't fix it, came up some error. Then I manually copied the imei folder across, and then manually copy/replaced the loose files from my efs backup across into efs, leaving the extra files that were there from the install.

Meaning instead of completely replacing the efs folder with my backed up one, just adding all the files from the backup folder into the installed efs folder, replace any with identical names though.

Rebooted and it worked fine :) saving me having to go back to GB and progressively work my way back up. Nice..

But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....Do remember to backup your contacts, data, images etc and also your EFS folder before flashing a ROM and make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.
