3. Select zip file and install

4. Wipe dalvik cache and fix permission (optional)(won't kill your phone don't worry)

And tada! You're done! Enjoy this new awesome animation! Give thanks to that person! :)

[HTC One V] natarajadithyan:
Hey Guys,

I am not very familiar with the idea of Developing or Modifying an Android Rom. What I want to do is just some modding to the Stock OS that was shipped with the HTC One V. By that I mean just adding some apps, changing the boot animation, adding some features or something cool from somewhere else. I would request somebody to take their time and help on how to go about doing this.

Thanks In Advance,

Adithya Natarajan.

Unfortlely the clockworkmod, doesnt work on this phone.

When I try to use the Backup function in ADB, it says:

ADB: unable to connect for backup

It doesnt matter if I use wireless or cable.

Can anyone tell me how to solve this? I want to take something simmilar to a Nandroid backup

Best regards

Are you rooted? Have you turned on USB debugging in the settings?

yes

yes and yes.

when i try this on my galaxy s3 it prompts with a password, and then it works very well.. on the gt-s5690 it dons't do anything
[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
Have you been able to successfully communicate with this phone through ADB previously? If yes, was it the same ROM?
[General Questions and Answers] subwoof:
Yes I have, the rom is stock. i can communicate with ADB but not take a backup..
[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
You have the latest SDK, right? Is there anything else wrong with the phone which might lead you to believe that the ROM is corrupted?

Alternatively, maybe you could do it through fastboot.

EDIT: Oh, and when you say that CWM doesn't work, do you mean that there is no compatible recovery for your device?

[General Questions and Answers] subwoof:
Yeah lastest SDK, and the rom doesn't seem to be corrupted works fine. althought I've deleted a lot og boatware on it.

I have tried to flash a new rom to it, nut ODIN dont seem to connect with it.

Yes there is no CWM for that phone
[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
I don't know enough about ADB to help you further there. See if you can communicate properly via fastboot.

Hey all--

Thumb keyboard seems to be highly recommended, so i downloaded it. However, I'm having a bit of a problem. The default keyboard which inputs letters and such shows numbers instead, and when you press the button to switch to number mode, all the keys go blank. I attached two screenshots of the problem, hopefully you can help.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] stolenmoment:
I think that perhaps you have the keytop color set to black. Look in the settings under Colors.

I'm using the Thumb Keyboard to type this, and have been using it with CM7, 9, and now 10.

Nice Story

Really Nice Story Super Sport, the other day I was speaking with an iphone fan friend, and telling him about the more than HD display from the Lumia 920, an he said to me, the Iphone has HD display since Iphone 4, and he showed me inside the camera app, and option that said HDR recording, haha, how can you argue with that, it is just not worth it.

Hope the Lumia 920 wont be as hard to unlock as the 900 is.

What's even more "Amazing" is that they also invented the Panorama Camera Setting that takes an 'AMAZING' 28 Megapixal photo. When they announced that, the crowd went nuts. WOW, 28MP photos from the new iPhone 5! Well, using that type of math, Windows phones have been doing that for YEARS, and in the 100's of Megapixals using PhotoSynth, and not just 8 frames wide, but in ALL directions, 360 degrees around, AND UP/DOWN. But Apple is very good at their announcements, making sure everyone thinks it's New technology, and "Amazing!".

As a matter of fact, the iPhone has been using Photosynth for over a year now, and it KILLS their NEW Panorama Mode.

You can flash as many ROMs as you want, you will not loose the unlock. You can check where the phone came from by the software code, but don't bother with it.

[Galaxy Note II General] E90 Commie:
I think it would be interesting to know how the Note II compares to an overclocked Note - i.e. using a kernel like the GL NoteCore or HydraCore OC with 1.6 Ghz and 400 Mhz GPU.

I guess that the existing benchmarks rather compares a standard Note (1.4 Ghz and 267 Mhz GPU) with the Note II.

It would also be interesting to know how much Project Butter affects the benchmarks, it seems like the Note II is a lot faster than the CPU/GPU by itself indicates based on the initial impressions.

I also think that it can be useful info for those who owns heavily optimized Notes to judge how the Note II compares to their devices running 1,6 Ghz CPU and 400 Mhz GPU.

wanna root this HTC but I've been reading a few

guides but they all seems so difficult, can anyone pls

help me throughout this process
[HTC Sensation] vickfred:
Pretty easy, do not worry. Find how to make S-OFF here, your device is in the perfect state, which allows wonderful and easy S-OFF.

This is the 1st and most important thing you should do - S-OFF will allow you to install any ROM you wish, change Radio, or anything else.
[HTC Sensation] dorian2kx:
and

I thinks its already s-off cause I did the volume down and power thing and I saw s-off but it says locked at the top
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
First find your boot version so you know the correct guide to use. To find out your version, pull battery out, put back in and press volume down power at the same time. You will see information come up. Copy that information down. It will give your h boot version.

Once you have that post your h boot version and we can link you to the correct guide that matches your h boot version. Best wishes ! This is the first step.

Ask Google for "revolutionary io hboot 1.18" if you have the HBOOT-1.18

and there you'll find the S-OFF unlocking guides
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

If you are already s-off,then,you are set to go.

The locked just restricts your fastboot commands.

If you want to upgrade to ICS,follow THIS GUIDE

Substitute whatever ROM you want.
