[HTC Sensation] kchinna:
Hello All,

I have HTC sensation 4g which i rooted the phone back in march by following the steps online after which i never updated it ..Couple of days ago i download cm7 and installed on my phone but forgot to backup ..After installation it started and looks like its a developer edition cm7 i don't see any of my apps and Google play store also .. Then i download cm9 and installed that now my phone restarts every other minute and i don't see any of my apps or Google play store ...Also the touch interface doesn't work ...

Can someone please help me from this situation

Thanks a lot in Advance
[HTC Sensation] Obnoxious87:
CM7 is a GB ROM. CM9 is ICS. You need to update your firmware to run CM9. For your apps and google play store, you have to flash the correct GAPPS after flashing the ROM when using CM.

You won't be able to update your firmware unless you are S-OFF. If you choose not to S-OFF, you need to use GB based ROMs.
[HTC Sensation] kchinna:
Thanks for the response ..

I am okay to S-Off my phone but i am not sure how to do the total process. Right now i am okay to install/unistall/S-off whatever to make my phone restored or make it work like before .. Can you help me by explaining step by step process.
[HTC Sensation] Obnoxious87:
To upgrade your firmware to 3.33 - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

Once you upgrade your firmware you can install any ICS ROM you want. Get in the development section and pick a ROM. Just remember to download the correct GAPPS if you decide to use a CM ROM.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
there is a way to install fw without S-OFF.see also here

I know you said i need to install the correct gappss but what should i search for to find the correct one ?

Gapps for CM10 is that what i should be searching for .. Sorry if i have asked something that doesnt make sense...

Thanks in advance

I installed the gapps and looks like i might be able to get the apps will keep you posted ..

I'm not really trying to flame.

I just saw this on my local news and I could not stop laughing. Mainly due to the fact that the guy sounded like a noob as far as when he was trying to explain the "tricking out" of the android devices. As soon as the video is posted on the Fox 26 website I will update this .

He's a scum bag. Adding 4g? Don't make me laugh. He's profiting off an open source operating system and others work. 100% guarantee he doesn't do anything other than load up XDA, find the root for the phone then collect money from unknowing average users.

[Off-topic] PlatinumPenguin:
He was a pretty tiny guy in the interview. He seriously sounded like he didn't even know what each phone had. I showed one Note off and said "Umm ya this one is matched to look like the cover" Basically it was running some sort of cm9 with a purple theme and the phone had a purple cover on it. Then he pulls out another one and says " Ya thiiis one... can run 4x faster than normal" Imagine a little voice talking slow with a slight accent.

LO

Har har har.

Not everyone is technically inclined but know there are ways to make the phones they are stuck with better and faster. This guy may be a n00b-looking munchkin weirdo, but he's making money doing this and you aren't. If people are too lazy or unwilling to do the work themselves that makes them ignorant--not him unethical. You don't complain about every other business providing services that can be easily learned about through Google.

Haven't read the news article or seen the video, but this certainly isn't the first post on here jumping on the nuts of someone doing this.

I can mow my own lawn but I'd rather have you do it because I have the extra money and you need it.

Edit: Read the article, the author sounds like the n00b but I haven't seen the video of the guy so I dunno. Only thing that seems sketchy is him saying he'll add 4G. The only phone I know of that this is possible is someone who is using an unlocked ATT Note on T-Mobile. A tmo radio can be added to achieve tmo hspa on the Note.

[Off-topic] TJBunch1228:
Well the mechanic changing your brake pads could tell you to bust open your Chilton's and do the work in 45 minutes for a fraction of the cost, but I doubt the people in his shop care about doing the work themselves or the money they are about to spend to have him do it.

Honestly if someone wants to pay him $30 to make their font Helvetica and pink to match their overpriced genuine Otterbox case, let 'em. The real concern should be whether he's licensed, bonded and insured to do this commercially. He's opening himself up to a lot of liability. Bricking should be the least of his worries. What if he puts some janky untested firmware on someone's phone and they are unable to make a 911 call or something. And this person dies. Munchkin man would be f*cked.
[Off-topic] negrobembon:
But the android scene changes very fast, custom roms get updated frequently, if u dont know about modding, rooting, etc. What will u do? Pay him 30$ everytime u need an update? Or a bug fixed? Or change a theme?

im not against these stuff but this service seems way too inconvenient , maybe im not getting it and im being an ignorant but thats how i feel
[Off-topic] jRi0T68:
IMO, it's different. It's like paying a computer service shop to install a new version of Windows for you. Sure, some people do, because they're lazy and/or afraid of computers.

I think those people shouldn't mess with custom ROMs, because they'll be clueless when a bug rears its head. Stick with stock and stable if you don't know/want to know what you're doing.
[Off-topic] TJBunch1228:
I agree. But there wouldn't be multiple people like this in business if there wasn't a market for it. I sell phones for a living and turn down people all the time who ask me to root so they can tether or something. I won't do it because of the liability issue, but I always point to XDA. Some people just honestly don't want to do the leg work and want the end result.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samuelong87:
Hey guys! Anyone gotten a recent firmware update?

Been using my Note 10.1 for 2 weeks now. I'm rooted (but on stock ROM) so I know I couldn't install the update.

Currently with a HK set with build N8000ZSALG7 (baseband N8000XXLGA)

Technically if I wanna apply the update, I would have to flash stock recovery? I downloaded it off zedomax's tutorial. Its the same for any region right? *Noob alert

Appreciate any help! Thanks!

One X to rule them all
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samuelong87:
Ok I flashed the stock recovery and updated the firmware successfully.

Bad news is its not JB (duh). The good news is it brings a few small improvements we saw in the recent India JB leak.

First and foremost, the irritating keyboard pop up upon exiting an app opened from a folder on homescreen is gone!!

And I found some small changes to s note

- s note widget is now added

- scroll bar in s note (but no more collapsing of the toolbars for fullscreen! Horrid)

- new book covers

- new landscape note

Unfortunately, the new split screens hasn't been included and mini apps stay the same. Bummer. Also, no airplay for the s pen in gallery and video player.

Other than these, I haven't found anything else. More to come from Samsung I hope! Really wish they would bring back the fullscreen mode in s note though.

UPDATE: PDF import into S Note seems to work ok now

I just purchased a international Note off EBay. It has GB installed. I am not sure what country this is from but the phone's baseband version is N7000UBKK1 and the kernel version is 2.6.35.7-N7000UBKK2-CL705203. I would like to move to ICS. I need US English as the language. So:

(a) What firmware should I use? I want to use Odin to install.

(b) Is there any possibility of bricking my phone due to the eMMC issue? I have run the eMMC Check app from the Play Store and it says the chip is "insane". But the test of the memory completes without errors. I am not really sure I know what this all means but I want to avoid problems (who doesn't).

(c) I understand the brick problem is with ICS and not GB. Does this continue to be a problem with the various JB roms out there?
