[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
:eek:

Stop me if I'm wrong............

I sense that this is one of those "humor me I'm bored" threads.

Beginning with an ambiguous or vague question then ends up trapping good people who actually want to help someone into an ongoing useless stream of dribble that ends up cascading into a wide river of the inane.

Let's see who will be the first to suggest a search of the forum on the clicking thingy.

Then how will we handle the should I send it back question?

;)

Hello. I'm needing to know if I need to flash a ROMs boot.img before flashing the actual ROM. I just now rooted, unlocked the bootloader, and installed TWRP recovery. Can I just download the ROM and install it from recovery?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] subarudroid:
Just download you're ROM and copy to phone then install from twrp.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Make a backup from twrp if you're worried about screwing something up first.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] subarudroid:
Ya what he said :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tanner4137:
I just flashed it and it's sitting at the HTC screen. That's normal, right? It should sit there a while as it boots?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tanner4137:
Alright, it's been quite a bit over 5 minutes. Should I be worried?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] omario8484:
Hold down your power button and get back to recovery
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tanner4137:
Did that and now I'm reapplying the ROM
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tanner4137:
Alright, so I reapplied the ROM. It gets to the HTC screen as normal, but then it goes black. I have it on the charger and the light is red (as it should) If I hold the power button I get haptic feedback like I would when turning the device off. Another thing, the capacitive lights are also on. I'm going to try restoring my nandroid
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tanner4137:
Another weird thing is that when I hold the power button and volume rocker down, it makes the sound of a screen shot.

*Edit*

Restored and I'm back to normal. I'll try a different ROM
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] omario8484:
Did it have an ooption in aroma to flash boot img
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] subarudroid:
Im not sure why but when using explorer to download roms it was all ways messed up for me. In crome and firefox it works fine.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tanner4137:
There was no option for that in CleanROM 4.5 (had aroma) but CleanROM V does have it. It said to flash it if you took the 2.5 update, but not to if you're on 1.8 and below
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
That's normal, that's one of two ways to create a screenshot.

I don't know if having your phone connected to a charger while flashing is causing any problems. The phone doesn't actually charge during any of this so you might aswel leave it unplugged. Additionally, letting the phone die while flashing is a big no no. I never flash without 75% or more battery left.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tanner4137:
It installed! Thanks for all of the help guys!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] omario8484:
Hmm it says if youre nnot sure say yes I put yes and my worked fine
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tanner4137:
Yes, but the ROM wasn't fully booting up. I didn't know at first if it had flashed because the screen had stayed black. When I could do a screen shot, I knew it had. The screen still never came on and I ended up having to flash a different version of the ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Afrojoe:
At first i kinda blur when ppl talk bout kernel n stuff, so basically the kernel is the boot image u need to flash on fastboot mode in the bootloader, rom is just simple as Ciou the zip file into sd card and simply install via cwm recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Weird stuff man. Glad you got it booted. Welcome to the wonderful world of hox.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rocker1198:
I just downloaded the free promotional version of Modern Combat 3 from the Samsung Store. I noticed that my phone overheats a lot when i start playing the game. Is it normal because when i play asphalt 7 its not so hot.

Please provide a solution.

EDIT: It had gone upto 56deg celcius in 2-3 minutes of gameplay. :confused:

I'm a product of the system i was born to destroy!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kofiaa:
Is power saving on? Are you on a custom kernel or rom?

I'm on siyah kernel, uv and oc, and my phone was heating playing nova 3 on Wi-Fi, then i turned off power saving and the heating reduced.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NatTheCat:
I just wear oven gloves. Solves my problem..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haizum74:
Lol, are those the touch screen oven gloves?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NatTheCat:
Yeh, they come exclusively with Samsung Galaxy S3's..

Too be honest I don't have overheating issues. Not yet anyway..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rocker1198:
Stock rooted ROM. Siyah 1.5.3 uc to 1.3 GHz.

I'm a product of the system i was born to destroy!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bordikun:
Try to underclock your GPU Speeds & undervolt your GPU Voltages. That can help lower the heat :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rocker1198:
uc and uv helped significantly. Temp didnt go above 50.

I'm a product of the system i was born to destroy!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kofiaa:
What values did you use? Any chance of a screenshot? Want to do the same for the gpu but have no clue.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rocker1198:
here u go

i also undervolted each GPU step by 50mV.

I'm a product of the system i was born to destroy!

EDIT: I changed the last 2 steps to 300 and 350.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugoleosp:
Hi,

When I decided to buy my TF300T one of the most import point was I could use internet over bluetooth since this version doesn't have 3G.

When I was on ICS I used to connect without any kind of problem .. just pair and use, simple like that.

But since I upgrade to Jelly Bean everytime I try to pair my Tablet to my cell phone the tablet abruptly reboot.

I tried everything I could think of to solve the issue:

- I did the new update to V10.4.2.13 of JB

- I removed the profile and added a new one

- I tried with another cellphone (mine is a Nokia Symbian, tried and galaxy II, same error)

- Wipe system/data

- Disabled wifi .. development mode .. usb debugging ..

- Formated my cellphone

My cellphone does allow internet over bluetooth as I was used to connect thru it everyday. I still tested on my friend's tablet (still in ICS) and it worked fine. The problem started when I upgraded from ICS to JB on my TF300T.

Does anyone have any idea what to do to get it solved?

Thank you in advance.

how long does it take to boot on the first time? its been on the HTC screen for a while. Im on hboot 1.58 and when i tried flashing one before it stayed there or a while. Whats going on? Im s-off and flashed with 4ext

I'm using King Cobra 1.5 and the stock ICS messenger will not send MMS messages, i can receive them just not send them. any help would be appreciated
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
funny you mention that. are you on AT&T by chance? im running viper rom xl and am unable to send mms. havent made any changes to the rom at all, i was able to send mms 2 days ago :rolleyes:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] quarlow:
Check your APN settings.

Sent from my HOCKS
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] franco1996:
yes AT&T and i havent been able to send at all
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] franco1996:
how do i do that
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
settings > mobile network > access point names > select ATT pta. hopefully its just at&t having issues
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] franco1996:
still not working
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] quarlow:
I'm on att and running ViperXL, and able to send and receive mms just fine. If its not the APN settings, and you are using the stock messaging app, I think the next thing to do is call AT&T and see if they can resolve.

Sent from my HOCKS
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Bleepm:
I had a problem similar to this before, what I had to do to fix it was change the MMS message size I believe. It's set stock to 5000k and it wouldn't send at that. I had to downsize it back to 150k and it worked fine. They way to do that is go to the messaging app, go to the settings, go to MMS settings and I believe it is under there somewhere. Hope it helps!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] quarlow:
Maximum message size on mine is set to 1000k, but it still compresses to about 200k per picture.

When I change the setting to a Max of 3500 it fails to send. When I change back to 1000k it goes through.

Hope that helps

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Matt08642:
By default, does CyanogenMod do something to modify how your OS displays colors on the phone?

I have minor color tint issues on my Galaxy Nexus using stock, but when I use CM, they seem amplified 5 fold

Anyone else with a Galaxy Nexus experience this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
Maybe they tweak the color gamma and multiplier. You can download apps like trickster mod to edit them if you don't like it

Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GRICKMAAAZ:
not sure if this helps, but when I flash new ROMS the settings are usually on the highest brightness. Maybe try to adjust them back to automatic to see if that helps out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Matt08642:
Do apps like that have a "stock" setting??

Eh, my stock JB screen looks best on full brightness
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 32SesameBU:
CM (and most ROMs in general) allow you to adjust the gamma and multipliers without 3rd party app....these are in the 'Advanced' settings

There are also predefined gamma/multiplier settings you can try....these are in the 'Color Hack Presets' under the 'Advanced' settings

Try starting there before using an app you may not need.
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
Hey guys. So i will hopefully be heading off to verizon soon so i wanted your opinion on a phone. Strike the iPhone 5 and the GSIII because i don't want either. Fire off!

Also, i know how hectic and long these threads can get so please wait a little while (like 2 weeks) and then close it if you want :)
[myTouch 4G General] simkhovich:
wait for the new lg phone
[myTouch 4G General] extrem0:
Or the new nexus...
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
One does not simply wait for a new phone :)

I would wait for the new nexus but verizon seems to hate updating that thing, sure i would root it but...Anybody seen estimates on when that is coming out?
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
I heard rumours about the new HTC one x+ bout to come out soon. Might want to wait, Verizon will probably get it as well.
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
Unless the One X+ has a snapdragon s4 pro, i doubt verizon will get it, tegra 3 and lte don't seem to work that well.
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
Well, apparently it will come in 2 versions. Tegra 3 and snapdragon. But that's only based on T-Mobile and att specs. Doubt it'll reach Verizon but I think it's worth the wait. Phone sounds sick on paper.

I was considering the rumored htc phablet. That's that sounds really cool though
[myTouch 4G General] I2IEAILiiTY:
You kinda ruled out you're only good choices unless you get one of the new Moto Droids
[myTouch 4G General] Bangincrazy:
THIS!
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
"Good choices" and "Moto Droids" don't belong in the same sentence unless quotes are around them, as in this case.
[myTouch 4G General] I2IEAILiiTY:
Oh yea, I forgot. I sowwy.
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
Have you seen the new moto droids? The maxx hd and the m? They look beautiful :)
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
Too bad their devices are a PITA to unlock the bootloader on. IF it happens it takes forever.
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
Hmm, i thought that since these devices were released under Google, they would be more like a nexus device.
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
have you seen the iPhone 5? it looks beautiful too :p
[myTouch 4G General] invasion2:
Galaxy Nexus, HTC Rezound, DROID Charge, and maybe even the XPeria play.

From all those the rezound still beast.

[myTouch 4G General] I2IEAILiiTY:
The Rezound sucks. My friend has it and wishes he got the GNex instead. Last time we looked, the way to root was to touch wires and he was like F*** that.
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
You have to do that on the amaze too, i dont understand how that gives you root
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
It's not to acquire root. It's to acquire S-Off.

Anyone ever had an old PSP and pandora's battery? Same general principle. It's a backdoor left by the manufacturer that allows full access. Except it was discovered.
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
I realized I said root after I typed it. I know of the battery thing but I still don't get HOW it works lol
[myTouch 4G General] I2IEAILiiTY:
The manufacturers make it work. Just like cheat codes in videogames.

Real life has cheat codes too. That's why we have corrupt politicians, stripclubs and prostitutes, and drugs.
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
The nexus devices are such lame boring phones. I messed around with the galaxy nexus my friend bought. It's just another galaxy s phone. He couldn't stand it himself. Nothing beats sense. Performance and eye candy all in one.
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
I agree :D
[myTouch 4G General] jsadler09:
Why don't you want the Galaxy S III? I may have to switch to Verizon in a couple months and was thinking about getting that as I'm not too excited about any of their other options. I read that it had a locked bootloader, but took a quick look at its forum section here and there seems plenty of development and options for custom ROM's.
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
It's a nice device and all but is really not for me. The screen is way to big for me and honestly I was more impressed by the one x. I will probably hold out for the new nexus phones though.they look exciting!
[myTouch 4G General] nlaplante:
LOL! :) you're right.

I'd go with the Galaxy Nexus myself, but I'd wait to see what will be the next Nexus if possible.
[myTouch 4G General] jsadler09:
Thanks, that makes sense. The new HTC One X+ looks pretty nice, I wonder if Verizon will get a version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boyer61:
Well i either lost my nexus or someone stole it. As soon as it happened i changed my passwords to my google account.

I had wheres my droid installed, it's not working.

The phone is ON right now.. im tracking if they make any phone calls or texts or any data use on myverizon. I tried Plan B, installed it through my computer. my question is, will it work even if i changed my passwords?

Well now its saying plan b isnt installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GRICKMAAAZ:
Sorry to hear that your phone is lost/stolen. That is like the worst feeling in the world. I strongly recommend calling Verizon Wireless customer service and report your device as lost/stolen. When you do this, it locks your device ID so that it cannot be used on someone else's account. If you find it, just call and let them know that you found it and they can activate it for you over the phone.
[HTC Amaze 4G] invisiblefire101:
Get the all in one toolkit from hasoon it helps a lot n from where u at just find the ics ruu n flash thru bootloader
[HTC Amaze 4G] blindskater39:
You might have to unroot it and install ICS firmware before upgrading to ICS roms, Im not completely sure, I might have done this the long way after reading into confusion. The shortest way to get ICS on your amaze is using 4ext to flash a rom if CWM does not work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Perry977:
Well if ur coming from GB, make sure take everything back to stock..unroot.. stock GB and stock recovrry and relock the bootloader
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
Not accurate.

Not accurate.

Download my toolkit. Relock your bootloader. Download the ICS ROM from here. Rename it to PH85IMG. Place on your EXTERNAL SD card. Boot into your bootloader. Let the stock ROM flash.
[HTC Amaze 4G] djolam:
Thank you Hasoon! I actually wish I had seen this post earlier. I got stuck on so many different threads with users having the same exact issues and I finally was able to relock the phone. Not sure what I was doing wrong but it's all good now.

However, after relocking, I went back to stock instead of just doing the the ICS rom. As I'm typing this, my phone is in the process of of installing ICS via the OTA updater. Now I just want to root it again and move on for now. This crap is way too time consuming for me :eek:

**Edit - Is it normal for this phone to sit at the HTC Amaze 4g screen during boot for about a minute? I thought this thing booted super fast before I started messing with it
[HTC Amaze 4G] blindskater39:
So you must flash to the stock ics rom before you flash into a custom ics rom if coming from GB?
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
Yes - you can't just flash the rom, as flashing the RUU in the bootloader as hasoon instructed actually repartitions the phone, and writes a bunch of files you can't flash anyways unless you had s-off(like radio, etc).

And for you or the OP, please click the amaze bible in my signature, it covers all of this, it is well organized- I challenege you to find a question that isn't answered in it(hint: if the question has been asked before, and it likely has, it is answered in that bible!)

[Motorola Droid 4] darkdragonmc:
I am looking to try to dring my droid 4 to straight talk. A lot of places have said plenty of different things. But can anyone tell me how I can do this for the droid 4. I can find barely anything for the droid 4 itself. Most of the stuff I find is for other droid models and none of them are clear for the process.
[Motorola Droid 4] terinfire:
It looks like you can unlock the phone for GSM -- I'd follow the guides relevant to that. Next, you'll need an unlocked GSM StraightTalk MicroSIM card.

I'm going to take a gamble and try this myself and see what happens and if I can pull it off. Are you intending to run this as a GSM phone or a CDMA phone?

As I recall only 2G works with AT&T/GSM, but potentially some other people have unlocked it for 3G... I'll be testing and let you know!
[Motorola Droid 4] remiqaine:
I too am curious about using this with straight talk. I had heard about 50/50 with people getting 3g to work with GSM. There was another post in this forum about unlocking the bands, so I might have to give that a try..
[Motorola Droid 4] terinfire:
Just FYI -- in case anyone comes across this post at a future date:

At present (October 1st, 2012), the GSM bands in America remain locked (despite what some websites have claimed) and no workaround has been discovered as of yet.
