i was able to download stock froyo from HTC but i don't know how to instal it in my 2.3.3 Gingerbread version.

also i don't understand this instructions attached to firmware

Please follow below command to download the official android toolchain: (arm-eabi-4.4.3)

git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilt

NOTE: the tool ¡¥git¡¦ will need to be installed first; for example, on Ubuntu, the installation command would be: apt-get install git

--Modify the .bashrc to add the toolchain path, like bellowing example:

PATH=/usr/local/share/toolchain-eabi-4.4.3/bin:$PATH

Either you forgot to extract the files or you didnt put them in the same folder as adb
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shared_ptr:
This is your first error message. All following commands fail because of this. You cannot simply continue when one step is executed with error. You have to fix it and then continue.

The reason for the error message is simple. There is no such file as 'fre3vo' in the directory ‘C:\Documents and Settings\Patrolscsn’. Copy the file 'fre3vo' in this directory or change current directory to one where the file is located. If you don’t know how, then you should probably stop trying to root your device.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenanibeze:
the fre3vo is in the directory!!!!!

i have the fre3vo in the directory and i downloaded it from the link provided by xda
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shared_ptr:
Yes, the file fre3vo is in the directory:

C:\platform-tools

But your current directory is (the directory where you execute the commands):

C:\Documents and Settings\Patrolscsn

Execute this command to change your current directory:

cd C:\platform-tools

Good luck, you'll definitely need it ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Hold shift and right click in the folder where fre3vo and fastboot.exe etc, then choose open command here

Thanks so much for the tip, finally after two weeks of searching how to get the magical // sign, I got it I’m ever grateful.:victory:

Please I want to upgrade my HTC sense, but I have no idea which custom sense is good for htc desire Z (I would have preferred sense 4.0 but sense 3.0 looks ok) which one should I go for?

Also which of the custom rom of ICS is best for desire z :highfive:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shared_ptr:
You’re welcome.

I’m not a big fan of Sense, but I would go for Sense 4, since it is more "lightweight" (consumes less storage and CPU) than Sense 3.x. You also have to distinguish between Sense 4.0 and Sense 4.0A which is even more lightweight.

Remember that our device has no official support from HTC, so all ICS ROMs are not perfect. You will notice some glitch here and there, but everything is getting better and better. Some ROMs are pretty stable thought, for example Andromadus Mimicry (which is based on Cyanogenmod 9.1). If you can live without Sense I would recommend you this ROM.

Here are some links to ROMs:

Cyanogenmod 9.1 - Andromadus Mimicry

Sense 4.0A - Gen.Y VisionX

Sense 4.0 - Ice Cream SENSEwich
[General Questions and Answers] Bobx360:
Hi,

I have an Orange UK branded Samsung Omnia 7 Windows Phone 7.

Currently the phone is at:

OS Version: 7.10.7740.16

Firmware Revision Number: 0222.11.8.5

Hardware revision number: 3.15.0.4

Radio Software Version: 2424.11.7.2

Radio Hardware Version: 0.0.0.800

Bootloader version: 5.8.1.9

Chip SOC Version: 0.36.2.0

I would like to update the phone to Update 7.10.8773.98.

I would rather this happened via a push from Orange, but this does not seem to be happening... I have two questions.

1.. Has Orange UK pushed the 8773 update to the Omnia 7? (if so why do I not have it yet)

2.. How can I update it to 8773 update? - Manually or force an update from Orange..

Kind Regards

Bob.
[General Questions and Answers] MrSPA:
Hi

I'm in exactly the same situation (same versions of everything above) and have tried to get the answer from Orange UK. I first tried about 2 months ago. Spoke to a few different people at Orange but none of them were much help. One of them even claimed that updates were nothing to do with Orange and they had no control over it! I also tried their email\online form help a few months ago. Incredibly it lets you fill in your question and details and submit them and then tells you it's broken. I tried it again yesterday and got the same result. Why do they not just take it down!. Also yesterday I posted the same question on @OrangeHelpers on Twitter and I'm still waiting for a proper answer. Perhaps if you follow up my Twitter post we can get some movement (look for tweet by @PhantomMPV)?

Hi there,

i have a prob with my gprs.

I have a gprs signal of ~ 5K/s.

(DX Toolbox widget shows me that)

But at the moment i wake my sgs1 and the display turns on he shows me more than 120K/s.

Its only for a moment.

Does anyone knows this problem?

I run on SGS1,jro03u,jv1 modem.

Is there any app that report my usage and topspeed of my gprs in stand by?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hedgehog90:
Is there ANY way of communicating between my newly purchased arduino and my Galaxy Ace Plus?

It does not support USB Host Mode. Can this be changed some how?

I really need the 2 to communicate for a personal project. I've ordered lots of stuff on the basis that this would work. And now I've discovered it doesn't...

I'm not sure if bluetooth is stable enough - there needs to be a stable communication between each device. Ethernet is not possible because it needs to work outside of a network, out in the open.

Help!

Ideas?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] system.img:
USB host is a hardware supported thing.

Check if your phone's chipset supports USB host in Google.

If it can, someone might need to make a custom kernel to support it if Samsung hasn't enabled it by default.

I don't know why you say Bluetooth is not stable.

Arduino and your phone shouldn't have a problem on Bluetooth
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hedgehog90:
I bought a very cheap BT module from china - £3.99!

Hopefully that should do the trick.. but it means the arduino needs a power supply, which requires either a **** load of AAs or a ****ty 9v battery.

The Ace Plus's chipset is "Qualcomm MSM7227A"

I've tried googling it with USB Host but I get nothing relevant to the problem.

Is Qualcomm MSM7227A with USB Host enabled possible? Could someone find out?

If it is, great! How do I enable it in a kernel?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] system.img:
Qualcomm says that usb host is possible.

https://developer.qualcomm.com/sites/.../snapdragon-specs.pdf

It was supported by the Original Ace's chipset too! But Samsung disabled it for some reasons.

Who knows if Samsung did the same to you...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hedgehog90:
Link doesn't work, found it here though:

http://www.sharemobile.ro/share/117241/snapdragon-specs.pdf

Some of the other chipsets in the USB column say: USB 2.0 High Speed OTG (480Mbps)

What's the diff?

Alright, how do I enable it on my GT S7500?

Please don't direct me into bricking my phone again. It was a total nightmare. Took over a month to be repaired...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] system.img:
Im not sure how to do it.

There are no methods to enable the usb host for the Ace Plus till now.

Maybe Samsung has done something to the motherboard to remove host compatibility like it did to the original Ace.

I would suggest you to stick with the cheap chinese bluetooth for now! :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hedgehog90:
bah. I must bear the idea of using a power supply for my arduino instead of my trusty ace plus.

oh well, hope the bluetooth works!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ginyons:
I'm a UK Three customer using Omega 9.1 ROM (FW: XXBLG1 Modem:XXLFB CSC:H3GALE4).

I work a lot offshore, way out at sea so obviously no mobile connection whatsoever for weeks however we do have a small bandwidth internet connection on the ship.

There seems to masses of apps for being able to receive and send SMS messages via the internet but many seem country specific. I don't want anything too fancy just the ability to use text messages (and preferably free???). Ideally being able to retrieve my voice messages would be awesome as normally when I get home from 4 weeks at sea I have loads and loads of voice messages (I should change my answerphone message before I leave to "Please don't leave a message as I am at sea" but I always forget)

Can anyone recommend a good way of doing this please? I understand that HandcentSMS may have this feature but their website made it look a bit overkill for my needs.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nick Fury:
Could possibly suggest you using Whatsapp, its free from the Google Play Store and you can send messages, pictures, videos and even recorded voices messages to other whatsapp users completely free over an internet connection.

It would mean that the people who want to contact you would also need to have the Whatsapp app on there phone but it can be downloaded on Apple devices, Blackberry, Android and on newer nokia devices aswell.

I understand this may not be a perfect solution and maybe some of the people you want to contact cant have Whatsapp on there phone but it could really help with those who can.

Hope this helps
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ginyons:
Tnanks for that. Certainly a part way solution and I guess the messages I am referring to involve close colleagues, friends and family so I'll see if we can try this route as a group.

Out of interest someone who I worked with mentioned Google Talk but as far as I have read/searched this is just a "chat/instant message" application. Surely it doesn't access my SMS messages? As far as I assume, SMS messages go through my network provider(??). The issue I really want to surmount is just to be able to receive my SMS messages when I am at sea for weeks on end. It really is frustrating getting to within sight of land (normally Aberdeen) and as soon as I get mobile reception a million and one messages start pinging in some of which were sent weeks ago.

The problem is that it just wont leave the very first boot screen.

Until we know the Secure Boot Key I have a bad feeling its not fixable. And god knows how long it will take them to release that.

So I've switched to CM9, but some apps are better in the stock rom IMHO:

3. the task manager (easily kill rouge apps, esp. the widget that gives a quick access)
