They work for sprint bro. Remember what Nokia did for the Att reps? Kinda like that.
[LG Optimus G (International)] ItsTommyGun:
I was told by someone else that the phone has to be active for 6 months on your account. After combing through the M&Ps though, I don't see anything about that.

Hmm... I think I'm just skeptical of the phone because it has the word "Optimus" in the name. Their past optimuses weren't all that. If it said "Viper" even then maybe I wouldn't be as skeptical.
[LG Optimus G (International)] LymeWire:
Hey Tommygun I hear ya, any phone that shares part of its name with the LG Optimus S doesn't exactly shout "awesome" but I'm still excited to get it and I see myself using it for probably 6 months or so until when I'm hoping the next EVO will be released then ill drop it like a bad habit. I bet you'll enjoy it too, how could anyone not enjoy a free quad-core powerhouse

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] usmanxhmed:
Hi guys,

I just bought xperia mini, it has official firmware GB .62.

I want to stay at stock, so people with experience of stock GB and Stock ICS, kindly advice me if i should stay at GB or should i upgrade to ICS, as GB has most of the main features as well, like hotspot, apps2sd and others which are useful, as some of people expressed, ICS is not that fluent or lags etc.

Kindly spare a minute or two and advise me!

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] galimpic:
Incredible, I just came here to post that exact same question :) I used to have a mini pro but I sold it before there was ICS update, now I got another one for my brother and wonder if he should upgrade to ICS... have they solved the bugs that came with the first ICS release or is it still pending?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] pastillero:
If you want to be on Stock, then remain on GB. It´s best in every way. ICS need more resources, so battery will drain faster, and it will use more RAM.

Also, a lot of apps don´t work well on ICS.

I´ve flashed my mini pro a lot of times, with a lot of ICS ROMS, and always i got back to GB.

I hope it helps you, it´s only my opinion
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ScatteredHell:
Gb good for gaming
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Stay on gingerbread, less bugs, better for gaming and on ics aren't so many better functions compared to .62. Only a few android bug fixes and security fixes, but better stay on gb ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] galimpic:
Follow up question... is there a way to prevent the upgrade notification which comes on again and again?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Eh ... the update notification isn't for the ics upgrade if it comes on the phone, because the ics update can only be done via your pc. What does the information tell you?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] usmanxhmed:
Well thanks guys, so i should remain on GB, i don't have mental problems of being on ICS, i just need working phone, special when ICS does not bring any substantial feature on Xperia Mini.

Kindly tell me, when i charge my Xperia Mini, LED light turns green when charging reaches about 90%, what i want to know shoudl i unplug the phone when LED turns green at about 90% or should i continue to charge it till 100%, what is better for battery health and battery life?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Better for battery life is to charge until 95-100%, this should be okay for the health :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] lordofvandalz:
if you gamers the i think u should choose gb :good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dhallbhoo:
Just stay on ur GB rom..

It more stable, savingmore batt life instead of ICS.

Ugh... :( i miss my GB stock rom

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dzi-benk:
I Think you should try ICS, if you not suitable, you can back to GB :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] usmanxhmed:
I tried ICS on nexus s, it was cool there, but there is not much difference in GB and ICS on mini, so its easy to stay on GB, as ICS is not a major step farward for Mini at least, those who are missing stock GB, i think it takes 3 minutes to come back to GB by flashing stock ftf GB Rom with flashtool, i use to do it with x10 mini.

Someone one said charging battery to 100% is not good for battery health.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] galimpic:
You are right, it was for the .62, I applied it. Thanks.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zrbyte:
Hi all, Soon to be joining the ranks of happy tf300t owners but I have a couple of questions.

I bought my tf second hand and only afterwards I noticed that It comes rooted and unlocked.

Will this affect my ability to get OTA updates? And will I be okay to use factory restore when I get it to be sure its securely wiped (I softbricked my hannspad once by performing a factory reset after applying a honeycomb ROM, still don't understand why but just want to be sure theres no chance of that happening here.)

If it does affect me is there an easy way I can set the device to a way that I can get OTA? And do factory resets if thats even an issue (I do have some limited flashing experience with my Hannspad).

And lastly are there any must have apps? (Willing to pay) Or even just tweaks etc to make my transforming experience more pleasant?

Running JB 4.1.1
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jebise101:
Well if it already unlocked then doing a factory reset will be fine and will not brick anything. But before you do that i would boot into recovery and make sure its twrp 2.2.2.0 and not another twrp version or clockworks.

No you can't get OTA updates since its unlocked but that is not a big deal, just wait for a Dev to add it to there ROM or just get the stock firmware from asus site and flash it yourself.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
flashing the updates your self is only slighty more work the the ota ones mate but as its already roote thats makes up for it :) and the first few apps that come to mind are adaway, titanium back up, bsplayer (for movies) and dolphin browser (with the jet pack add on)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funnel71:
Just so you know, if you are running jb, do not attempt to flash anything ICS, either ROM or recovery. Make sure what you're flashing is designed for jb, otherwise you might brick your tablet.

You can't get ota when unlocked, but Asus is good for posting their Roms on their website shortly after an ota update is released. There are several guides here which tell you different ways you can install them. Its not hard at all.

Finally, if unlocked, you cannot relock.

Hope this helps a little.
[General Questions and Answers] RohanM:
hello everyone.

m new to this world of rooting & all

i already successfully rooted my lg p690 & want to install recovery image to make a nandroid backup,

plz guide me how to proceed...:confused:

thanks
[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
The easiest way, though somewhat dangerous, is to install ROM Manager from the Play store. Do not attempt a backup! Though it works fine for many devices, some devices are bricked by attempting a backup through ROM Manager.

Use it to install custom recovery, then exit the app.

Alternatively, if you have the .img or .zip file of the specific recovery you want to install, use Android Flash Recovery through your computer. It's safer, but you have to download the custom recovery image yourself.
[General Questions and Answers] RohanM:
thanks for the reply sir,

i managed to install recovey manually & also installed custome rom called gingerblur androide 2.3.7

plz give me any ICS based stable rom to use

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kienerii:
Hi there,

two days ago I opened the HTC Desire carefully to replace the touchscreent cause it was damaged but I quit because I did not have the necessary tools. After that everything worked fine, but today the phone doesn't boot anymore. So I guess the boot problem has nothing to do with my "repair".

Whenever I charge the battery, the LED is orange but when I press the start button the LED disappears. I'm not sure if this is normal?

What could be the problem?

Thanks in advance

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kienerii:
No, hboot doesn't work.

When I press the start button: no vibration, no LED, no reaction at all.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
You said the touchsceen was damaged... so maybe it just gave up working altogether. :(

via xda app
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kienerii:
No, the Touchscreen is broken since 2 month. It's probably the mainboard.

Do I still have warranty? I have opened the case (just the 6 screws inside).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
Once you opened the screws, your warranty was lost... try a service.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kienerii:
Okay so what is the price for a new mainboard?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stammler:
Is your hboot not working, or doesn't the phone just boot normally? Remove the battery, press and hold the Volume down key then press power while still pressing Vol down. Doesn't it show hboot then?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kienerii:
Hi stammler,

no, when I press power NOTHING happens. No vibration, no screen light, so hboot also doesnt work. It seems like the phone is totally dead, except when I plug in the power supply because then the LED appears (green).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stammler:
Well, if not even power+vol down shows hboot, neither power+back button shows fastboot (check with the usb cable attached to your pc and execute "fastboot devices", if you see your device, then the mainboard still works I'd say...), then it seems to me your phone is dead
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kblawson28:
Hi guys,

I'm new and I hope i'm posting in the right place. I'm having some trouble with my phone and would love a push in the right direction. I'm not getting all of my text messages. I think i'm using a ****ty ROM.

I'm considering a factory reset but would really appreciate your advice.

Here's what i've got on my phone right now:

I've got an ATT SGS3

Android Verson 4.1.1

Kernal

3.0.43-Cyanogenmod-g9891f29

CPU ARMv7 Processor Rev 0 (v7I)

Cyanogen Mod Version

10-20121008-SKANK-d2att (installed via rom manager after rooting)

The main reason I rooted was to have root access for Tasker however I think I may have gotten in over my head with the custom ROM's cause now my tasker is f'ing up too.

again, anyhelp would be appreciated.

[HTC One S] saculetz:
i tried to install trickdroid, which went wrong. being the idiot that i am, i erased everything, system, cache, all i could find. now i tried this:

1) Use the All-in-One-Kit and flash your recovery back to stock

2) Boot into the bootloader and choose to "clear storage" and afterwards to reset to factory defaults.

3) Go back to the all-in-one-kit and flash a CWM recovery version again.

4) Reboot into recovery (CWM). Your /sdcard should now be mounted and visible.

5) Now, try the UTB rom (it worked for me), rename the zip file to something short (i.e. utb.zip), and push it to the sdcard using adb as follows:

Code:

adb push utb.zip /sdcard

6) While still in CWM, flash the zip.

i relocked my phone, but i dont know how to flash stock recovery. i have the stock_recovery.img and i installed all in one kit, but i am not sure what to do now. i tried FLASH RECOVERY/ your own recovery and then flash cwm, but i dont get that option to clear storage, which makes me think i did something wrong. can someone please explain step by step what i need to do? now i am very very angry and i dont think i can think straight at the moment and cant really focus.

thanks a lot

EDIT: now i am downloading the RUU file for one s s3 europe....
[HTC One S] luxandroid:
To go back to STOCK [S3 - VilleC2] recovery, you must RELOCK bootloader, and than flash THE RUU for your device: (RUU_VILLEC2_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.11.401.110_Radi o_16.12.20.02U_16.05.20.16_M2_release_263510_signe d.exe - google it!) - in my case this version worked fine (after RELOCK bootloader) - (ATTENTION! it will erase everything as well as UNLOCK process even after RELOCK) - you'll be back to STOCK ROM with STOCK recovery.

All_in_One_Kit is not proven to work on S3
[HTC One S] saculetz:
thanks for the reply

thing is i erased everything, and the only thing i get now is fastboot/hboot. i relocked the phone via hasoon all in one kit, but i dont know how to flash recovery. i tried to but i dont know how to check if the process succeeded. what i need is someone to tell me the steps i have to follow to flash stock recovery and then that RUU file which i am downloading now.

EDIT: i finished downloadin the stock RUU. how can i flash it? i only have fastboot on my phone, i erased everything else
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CliveCleaves:
I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I'll try to describe it as best as I can, I can also try to include a video the next time it happens.

When I put my phone down at night before going to bed it makes an odd sound. It sounds somewhat like a ringtone. Typically three notes descending, and then it repeats a number of times until I adjust how it is sitting.

I don't have any alarms, or anything linked to the accelerometer or gscope. It doesn't happen when I'm putting it down during the day and only some nights.

I'm running 4.1.2 (but it has persisted for at least a couple versions). It is on Telus, running the yakju build and unrooted. (unlocked bootloader).

This behaviour pre-empted getting it up to JB.

Any ideas what it could be? When it has happened I've gone into running apps (and showed chached processes) and couldn't find any offending app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raptir:
Are you putting it down near anything that could have a NFC tag (credit cards, student ID, etc...)? That sounds like the sound it would make when you "scan" an unrecognized NFC tag. You could test this by turning off NFC and seeing if it still happens.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimmyco2008:
Haha funny. Does it happen on just one surface or a plethora of surfaces?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CliveCleaves:
Thank you dude! Excellent excellent call.

I've been putting my phone on my wallet for forever. My wallet has my mastercard (with paypass).

I tested holding the phone up to my credit card and the exact same sound happened, it was definitely trying to "scan" an unrecognised NFC tag.

Amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimmyco2008:
And funny. lol

Well glad you figured it out, sounds like something I'd do.

[HTC Amaze 4G] BiznessMan:
Initially the Amaze was listed as one of the Isis mobile payment supported devices but it appears that is no longer the case. The app launched last week and it looks like it only supports three Samsung devices at the moment. Now it may eventually support the Amaze, but seeing as how Tmobile dropped support for the phone a while ago maybe we never will be a supported device.
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
It's still in testing and it's a beta release.

Please ensure your device is on the latest version of the available Android Operating System:

• Samsung Galaxy S III: Android version 4.0.4/Software version T999UVLH2

• Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G: Android version 4.0.4 / Software version T699UVLH1

• Samsung Galaxy S II: Android version 4.0.3/ Software version T989UVLH1
[HTC Amaze 4G] cndctrdj:
I am still looking forward to this. Hope it works
[HTC Amaze 4G] BiznessMan:
Its funny because in a lot of the press shots they are using the Amaze and then its not initially supported.

But it looks like you have to get a special SIM card from your carrier to use this. I assume its free, but still.

Hi, i'm getting this issue while editing systemUI.apk. I've already read that part (on a xda thread) on how to decompile an apk.

I want to edit Miui.us 2.10.12 ROM for i9023 (nexus s) to get the clock in the middle of the status bar and change its color, so I decompiled MiuiSystemUI.apk, opened res/layout/status_bar.xml and edit, like several guides say (like this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1730388) , recompiled the apk, substitute AndroidManifest and META_INF from the original apk, with this result: now i had clock in the right position, but it won't disappear when a notify arrives and i can't really get to change its color in values/styles.xml

Anyone knows how to make clock disappear and change its color?

Hello, this is my problem.

My brother has a Galaxy Player YP-G1CWYXAA (U.S. version) and he tried to install a kernel, but it was not for that model, so the player was bricked, just started in download mode (using key combination)

I have tried to restore it using several tutorials, wtih the same result. If I try to install the original kernel in ODIN get FAIL, other kernels it is possible to install but the player always starts in recovery mode.

I can install roms using recovery, but always starts in recovery. I read that it is necessary to do a fullwipe and wipe cache partition. I did it and the problem continues.

I need to suggest me what else I can do.

Thanks

I've tried a lot of times. There are several tutorials, I've followed all of them without positive results. Using "stock rom" and ODIN I get "FAIL" when flashing kernel. Using Heimdal suite, there is a problem with "libusb-12", there is no way to do it.

I've tried everything I found during last week, always the same result: stock kernel doesn't function and custom kernels get me to recovery.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Hairlesshobo:
I just recovered my Player 4.0 USA from the same symptoms. I tried everything to get it to boot but I could only get to recovery or download mode after a failed attempt to revert from ICS. By default, it would just boot directly to recovery. I also got FAIL with odin and the stock rom that you referenced. The problem is that the Odin package for our player in the stock rom thread is corrupt. I downloaded Heimdall and used the other package for our device and was able to flash it back to stock successfully.

As for the errors you got in Heimdall, did you make sure to overwrite the drivers in heimdall before starting? While in Download mode, you have to go to Drivers/Zadig.exe in the heimdall folder and hit "show all devices" (or whatever it says in the menu) and then find anything that says samsung and hit replace driver. Once you do that, Heimdall will work. I originally had the same problem as you because I only replaced the driver while in CWM recovery (which was in ADB mode) and when I rebooted to download mode, it failed with the exact same error message.

Hope that helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] rara1d:
I installed the drivers and that messed it up even more. Now Odin doesn't recognize my device and I can't flash anything to it. :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ti-pich:
That's because you installed heimdall driver. If you want to get it detected by odin, just go into device manager and uninstall the samsung driver then unplug your device and plug it back. The normal driver should be re-installed properly and odin should be detecting it after. Or, I think there is an option in zadig driver to unistall it but I'm not sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Hairlesshobo:
Well what happened when you actually attempted to flash the player directly from heimdall? Heimdall is not just for drivers, but an alternative to Odin (and in my case, the only way I could get the factory flash to take because using Odin, it failed every time).
