[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] FMA5880:
I have done my research on this topic, but I am still not confident I will be going about this the correct way.

I am new to the android hacking scene but feel with a little more guidance I will be able to do what I want to do.

I got my EVO on day 1 of release and have not accepted any OTA's. I had the phone rooted right after the first root method was released. I had wanted to flash custom ROM, but was not willing to go the HTCDev route as I was concerned with the warranty.

The Lazypanda S-OFF solution seemed good until I read it was bricking a lot of phones. Now I know there is an unbricking tool, but how effective is this? Simply put, if I follow directions, how likely is it that I would brick my phone with this method? And how likely am I to be able to fix it?

And lastly, I had activated Google Wallet before it stopped working on the phone. I know the OTA will fix this, but for obvious reasons I do not want to do this. Will I have to do the build.prop edit to a Nexus phone to gain access and wipe GW settings before I do lazy panda or is there another way?

Thank you in advance for the help.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] corcgaigh:
All your answers are in the forum.

I'm not sure of the % of bricks from using lazypanda, I think its low if you follow the directions and the unbricker is successful 100% of the time for that brick AFAIK.

forget about clearing wallet. I have my phone since release day and have never reset/cleared wallet and I usually flash new a new ROM every few days. GWallet still works fine.

I would hang around the lazypanda thread for a while and ask the questions you asked here. There are some real helpful ppl there

Good luck with S-OFF
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] FMA5880:
Thank you for the reply.

I believe some of my answers probably have been answered, but I have already spent a considerable amount of time reading and do not feel confident. I just do not want to risk bricking my phone. I realize that there will always be some risk, but I would like to have a good idea what that is.

I am not concerned with a soft brick, if the tool will really fix any brick that could have occurred while using the lazy panda method.

Apologies if I should have continued reading more, I just thought I was at the point to request some more personal guidance.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] corcgaigh:
Yup

No worries. I'm almost positive the unbricker works 100 % of the time IF you need it. You should probably have it setup and ready to go just in case. I personally didn't have any problems
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
me either.. just follow the directions and u should be fine.. it went perfect for me.. it was over in 5 mins!!!! s-off is the way to go!!!!!!:)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
My phone bricked, used the unbricke,r made sure everything was working in the reccomendations from post 2 in LP thread, ran LP no problems :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bantzt:
u will be fine

Hey man, s-off is definitely worth it. There are plenty of us here on xda that can help u out if it does manage to brick.

And if for some reason u have a problem and brick run the un brick tool.

Practice makes perfect. And anything worth anythings ng takes a little risk.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Anthonicia:
Was concerned myself about the gwallet thing. I bricked 2 EVO LTE's w secure element errors just rooting and flashing roms. This was back before the fix though. And it is still unclear whether the fix is in the actual updated app or in the ota, or both. Google won't be clear with that.

If u want to be extra safe then do the build.prop edit to reset. Make sure to re-install old build.prop after resetting gwallet and before the s-off process. Not sure if it matters or not but better safe with stock and s-off then edited build.prop running unbricker.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] corcgaigh:

[Galaxy 3 General] apogee91:
Ohh man this sucks.. I just got the Galaxy S 3 a week ago I was sitting in my house porch my phone was laying quietly in my pants pocket it kind of slipped out when I move my leg and it fell on the floor. The height was probably a foot high.. the bottom of the screen on the right side cracked totally. My galaxy s 2 Fell many times but never cracked. This kinda sucks I don't even know if all invest original parts as they are very expensive and I don't have insurance.

Anyhow my question is my vibration doesn't work when I click the back button on the bottom of the phone and vibration doesn't work when I click the Options button on the bottom left of the phone am I missing any settings because it worked before it cracked..

Thanks guys

If the card is formatted as FAT32, you shouldn't have any problems with it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlmightyCushion:
The 32GB cards are SDHC, 64GB+ cards are SDXC. It's a different format so 32GB and 64GB cards are not the same. The Xperia Play officially supports SDHC so that is why the specs say that it is up to 32GB. Saying that a lot of SDHC devices (especially later ones) are compatible with the SDXC format. I haven't tried it myself but I've seen plenty of other people saying that 64GB cards are working with their Xperia Play so you should be fine.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlm123hi:
Okay, my issues started when I switched to the baked rom. I had gotten google now working fairly well on ICS. After I switched the voice recognition just hears me as background noise. It will listen then just go back to the tap the mic to speak screen. No searching. No crashing. Nothing. I even tried switching to cyanogenmod 10. Exact same issue. I think the offline voice files might be corrupted. Does anyone know if I might be right and if so how I can delete them?

P.S.- I always do a clean install. Factory reset, clear data in CWM, clear cache (for redundancy), clear dalvik cache.

Thank you in advance.

sincerely

- Someone clearly missing something obvious.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apacseven:
I know that in CM10 they say the issue is because its using the mic on the top of the device instead of the one on the bottom, and the top one is normally for noise cancelling. Try speaking into the mic at the top and see if it helps. Beyond that I can't give you any help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlm123hi:
I tried your idea. Nothing. Did ANOTHER clean install. Nothing. Did your idea with the clean install. Worked like a charm. Thanks! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
You are still dirty flashing. A clean flash involves formatting system. That is where old rom is located and why phone will reboot after factory reset, dalvic and cache wipe. A clean wipe will not boot since there is no longer an OS/ROM on device. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlm123hi:
I know what a clean install is. I have been doing it. I tried his idea AFTER I did another clean install and it worked fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
What prdog1 is telling you is that you are actually not doing a clean install. Factory reset/data does not remove the original rom partioned on your sd. In order to have a true clean install you need to go into mounts+storage and format the system. That removes the old rom so flashing the new one is truly a clean install. Your technically doing a dirty flash still, which is generally fine when loading the same rom base.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlm123hi:
Oh. That helps to explain him better. Wow I've been doing it wrong for years. Lucky for me this is the first time I've had problems. Thanks for the info!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
This is the reason many people have problems that the majority don't have. Flashing different rom bases on top of each other can corrupt the rom and no one can troubleshoot the answer unless it is a rom bug that the majority has. Factory reset, cache and dalvic wipes help eliminate apps and data problems. :cool:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rescue9:
It's absolutely non-functional. As if the application isn't even detecting that a digital compass is installed. The needle doesn't move at all, nor does the pitch indicator in GPS Status. I'm wondering if it's due to a bad flash or something. I've only flashed once, CM10, then did a clean wipe multiple times ( cache, dalvic & wipe 2 times each) before installing a nandroid of the rooted stock back to the tablet.

Is there an application that reads directly from the sensors that I can test?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toenail_flicker:
This is what I thought you were already doing, and knew something I didn't know. There are sooooo many apps out there. The fact that you had rooted and flashed is also important info.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rescue9:
can someone install 'Sensor List' and see if the 3-axis magnetic field sensor functions for you. I'm getting nothing on mine.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rescue9:
Well.... after the latest update (done in Kies due to CWM installed) the compass has stopped working again and I'm not getting any values from the magnetic field sensor. The UEALGB stock recovery tar was what I flashed through Odin last time to get the compass back. I'm at a loss on what to flash this time though as I have updated.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rescue9:
Still waiting on a a recovery that I can Odin. There has to be something in the CWM port that Entrophy uploaded that is borking the magnetic sensor.

I am having issues with setting the video quality to maximum. Still image is not a problem with the stock camera. The camera app that comes with the CM based roms appears to not properly switch the resolution to 1280x720. Seems to be always stuck at 640x480. I also tried camera ics with the same issue. I was looking for an alternate camera app that shoots video on par with the stock camera on the stock ics rom. The stock ics rom camera will not work on custom roms due to its dependence on touchwiz which is a bummer.

Camera 360 doesn't appear to shoot video.

[Galaxy S II General] Scarface1991:
As some of you might have heard, there is a security issue on some Android phones (including the SII) that enables someone to create a link which will wipe the data of your device when you click on that link from an Android device like the SII.

I have discovered a very cool App that prevents that from happening. All this App does is to recognize everytime you click on a link which wants to execute some code on your device through the dialer.

It then automatically tells you if it`s a dangerous code and if it`s harmful for your device. If it`s a normal phone number then you can dial it straight from the App.

Simple but very effective App that closes the security issue until Google/Samsung etc. decide to do something about it.

Here`s the link for the App:
