[HTC Wildfire S] chairsz:
Ive been looking on ebay for a extended battery besides the only 2 that have in depth reviews on here (the 3500mah bat and the 2200mah fat boy bat) ive found a andida thats 1600 mah on ebay but before i buy it was wondering if andida are good brands? there isnt a review of this bat manufacturer.

The other bat i found that excites me is the htc rezound battery on ebay model battery number (BTR6425B) the description says its compatible with the wildfire s but once again im trying to find users who tried it. BTW the rezound auction i emailed the seller and he hasnt answered my email and its been over a week, sounds suspicious dont it?

htc rezound battery auction link http://www.ebay.ca/itm/261041496064?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

andida auction link http://www.ebay.ca/itm/280747536442?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

i prefer extended bats that dont require an extra cover since i really need a good case to fit over it.

thanks:highfive:

I bought this, ebay.ca/itm/2450mAh-High-Capacity-Gold-Battery-For-HTC-Wildfire-S-HD7-HD3-A510-G13-T9292-/140779866420?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item20c7224934&_uhb=1#ht_1308wt_1165 there is no much difference with the original but works well.
[HTC Wildfire S] ShadowOfDeath:
Golden Battery

I bought this one and it make a real difference

Almost double the MaH, so if your rooted and over clock you battery doesnt die right away

I mean solid 806 mhz, over clock with screen always on +music and constant input

About 4 and Half hours

Its really cheap as well

Go to ebay and type in

Golden battery Wildfire S (cant post links xD)
[HTC Wildfire S] WickedBanshee:
Really? I've read on many forums and threads that gold battery are mostly fakes and may harm your phone, other than not giving you what you paid for..

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ck4794:
I've been having a problem with phone calls putting them on speaker. The volume of the external speaker is comparable to the volume of the ear piece. This is only in calls, music and notifications seem to be fine. It was fine before I rooted, but seems to be goofed up on JB roms. I rooted with the brand new 2.20 root method. I tried things like Volume+ and nothing seems to make a difference. I've tried all the basic things like wiping cache/dalvick. What are the chances it's a bad device?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
you already posted this in the roms thread. someone probably saw it so why make a thread? wipe and reflash. you also can't blame root because you flashed another rom. on first root, unlock, recovery flashing i always "fastboot erase cache", then wipe literally everything in twrp, then flash my rom. you could first try "fastboot erase cache" in bootloader then wipe cache/dalvik then fix permissions before doing the above and see if that fixes it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ck4794:
yes, i posted it there because at the time i thought the problem was specific to that rom (i think it started with the codename rom). but after being on more than one rom (i'm now on the jb build 4) i don't think it is. or it may be specific to jb roms. i'm not sure. i thought i would ask before i just go flashing away... i'm also wondering if anybody else is having this problem.

i followed you all the way till "fix permissions", is this another tab in twrp?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
with all the changes right now with CM10 which is base for alot of jb roms its hard to determine the cause. unless you are using a jb aosp build before the kernel changes which is basically anything after 10/01 then you might have some unique issues.

fix permissions is under advanced
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ck4794:
Speaking of kernels, I haven't gotten any kernels to successfully flash with either ROM. For instance rohans kernel to oc. Flashed it with his ROM. Won't take.

So basically what you're saying is wipe caches with fastboot, go into twrp, erase everything, reflash, then fix permissions?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
use the stock kernel that comes with your rom for now. reboot in to bootloader and "fastboot flash boot boot.img" the kernel(ie boot.img) from ur current rom. then run "fastboot erase cache" then boot into recovery. wipe cache/dalvik then go into advanced and fix permissions.

if that doesnt work then wipe everything and reflash your rom and gapps if its aosp rom, then rewipe cache/dalvik and reboot.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ck4794:
Didn't work, but sandy just knocked out the power so I think this can wait a while haha
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:
I respectfully suggest you stay away from custom kernel for now until you are a little more familiar with your device, especially if you're playing with jb/cm10 based roms stay with the kernel that came with. The devs will not support any issues that arise from flashing a custom kernel on top of a their roms. :(
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ck4794:
i will definitely take this under consideration
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ck4794:
did this and still a no go... no volume on speaker phone during a call. wiped everything and reflashed rom with stock kernel, wiped again, fixed permissions. all other volumes seem to be appropriate.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:
relock bootloader and ruu...if that does not do it you have a hardware issue.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ck4794:
i'm not questioning your logic, but for my own knowledge can you explain this a little better for me? not the process but the reasoning? to my understanding an ruu basically strips the phone back to some previous state, depending on the ruu you chose, and reverts it back to stock. what purpose does re locking the bootloader serve here? would i need a new unlock code or would the unlock code i got from the first time i unlocked it still work?

also let me make sure i have this process down, relock, ruu, unlock, flash? am i missing any steps in there? like will i need to reflash my recovery?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:
here is the logic.

1. you need to relock bootloader to run ruu

2. ruu bring you back to vanilla stock everything, allowing you to evaluate your hardware/software issue. If your speaker works it was some kind of corruption if doesn't it you know you have a hardware problem.

Unlock code stays the same.

That's also why you should always do a clean install/full wipe/factory reset when you experiment with different roms (aosp/sense)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ck4794:
thanks for being patient with me man, i appreciate it. i'll give this a go a little later this evening and post back results.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:

ok well i ruu'd and the speaker worked fine. got it rooted again. got my bootloader unlocked. now the sumbitch is playing games with me with recovery.

well it was a no go. still has the original problem. i'll try it with a sense rom tomorrow just for giggles and see what happens. but so far i've had a speaker phone problem with every aosp/aokp rom i've tried. still no answer has anybody else had these problems?

[HTC One X] BigFatTony:
so the currently available JB test-roms only run on certain CID's. how come ICS-custom-roms don't give a **** about the CID?

in the future, for JB-custom-roms based on the OTA: will the devs have to create many files, one for each CID? or will one file rule them all, like before?
[HTC One X] matt95:
the CID is related to the firmware and not to roms! you need a certain firmware to boot a rom, you need a certain CID to install a firmware... Every htc one x in here came out with stock ICS firmware on... that's it
[HTC One X] maniacaus:
So as soon as a RUU is available for our individual phone, our firmware will be updated and then any jellybean rom can be installed?

---------- Post added at 11:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 PM ----------

On a second point, why do carriers and HTC bother keeping s-on if it is separate to carrier locking? If we stay on the same carrier why do they care what software we are running?
[HTC One X] BigFatTony:
thanks

Thank you very much, @matt95. So the CID is related to the firmware. Does firmware equal hboot?

if i can update my firmware to the soon-to-be-aired version, i can flash any JB rom i want?

@maniacaus: the way they install JB now, on the CID-legit versions, goes like this:

update hboot to 1.28

unlock the device again

flash recovery again

flash boot.img

flash rom

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32855238&postcount=29798

the problem seems to be that hboot can only be updated for the HTC*****-CID's. so we have to wait until HTC releases the OTA-update for our CID.

2nd point: they're probably just control freaks. if we void our warranty anyway by unlocking the phone, why shouldn't we be able to modify everything?!? i can't come up with any good reason for not letting us have S-OFF.
[HTC One X] matt95:
1-firmware is related also to HBOOT yes, if you install a certain firmware you can run every JB rom based on it, so not every JB rom that will come out (eventually)...

2- well for examples, if we have S-OFF then we could also revert everything back without leaving any sign of unlocking and things like that... so if someone that has unlocked the bootloader and breaks his phone then his warranty is voided, but if that person has the S-OFF he could revert everything to stock and so it seems like he doesn't even voided his warranty :D that's a single point... there are many others i bet...
[HTC One X] BigFatTony:
thanks a lot!

1 - so how will it work? how will we update the firmware/hboot?

will there be a firmware.zip for every CID?

##EDIT: ah, that's probably why this thread exists: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1957376 *feels smart*

(boot.img will still be universal since it contains only the linux kernel, right?)

2 - isn't that why they have this registration process that sends identification codes to HTC? couldn't they just make this ID-sequence unchangeable instead of entire partitions?!?
[HTC One X] matt95:
boot.img is the same for everyone :)

2- i really don't know, only HTC knows its business :)
[HTC One X] Monsterkater:
Sorry guys, I know it's kinda off-topic, but I have a quick question: What does it mean if my HOX doesn't have a CID? It's not that I don't know how to find it, CID Getter as well as "fastboot getvar cid" return just nothing.
[HTC One X] matt95:
it is impossible that your phone has not a CID, you probably didn't installed HTC Drivers
[HTC One X] Monsterkater:
Ah, thank you, it's VODAP102. Do you have any idea why CID Getter didn't find it?
[HTC One X] Bertjj:
Hello,

My HOX was stock (latest firmware) and then i saw Jelly Bean firmware collection for different Carriers ID (CID). So i tried to flash it, and booted it, bootloop in logcat. So then i decided to flash a RUU, but my version-main is now 3.14.401.600, now i have unlocked the bootloader to be able to flash a custom rom, but i would like to go back to stock, does anybody know how to do that?

My CID is: HTC__E11
[HTC One X] matt95:
why did you do something like this!? couldn't you just stay on stock?
[HTC One X] Bertjj:
Because i was not able to boot, so i flashed a custom rom.. but now i would like to go back to stock
[HTC One X] nitrous²:
As long as you don't have a S-OFF device, you won't be able to downgrade in any way!
[HTC One X] Bertjj:
My bootloader is unlocked. Is S-OFF possible with the HOX?
[HTC One X] eyosen:
Not yet, sorry
[HTC One X] Bertjj:
So then i need to wait for the 3.14.401.600 RUU?

If you're running jellybean, Lens_Flare gave me this solution to getting usb mass storage to work on the rom. Download terminal emulator if you don't have it already. Type su and then hit enter. Type this command "setprop persist.sys.usb.config mass_storage" without the quotes and then hit enter. Now type reboot and it should work for you now.

no, it should say My HTC or Android phone, It won't say Evo 3D. did you have it plugged in when you turned on Debugging? If so unplug and plug the phone back in. Maybe try a reboot of your computer? Do you have HTC Sync installed by chance? If so, un-install it.

Hello!

OK, this is gonna be a tough one. My first thread.

I've already searched a million times a solution for this problem, I've looked on almost every related Q&A post over and over again and still nothing.

Now, I have a Samsung Galaxy S Plus with CM9 (this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1825260).

Everything was going smooth until today when I installed a GPS navigation program called iGO My Way ( this version: 8.4.2.139242). And of course... it doesn't work. To be more specific, I performed a clean install, opened the program (`till now everything is ok) but when It comes to connecting to GPS satellites, I waited for 30 minutes and it didn't find my location. Then I opened phone settings and enabled " Use GPS satellites" and tried again but it still doesn't work.

I don't want to try another program `cause this one is one of the best and it worked on my official ROM.

In the cm9 topic by ivendor, he says that gps is working fine, and yes, GPS is working fine in Google Maps for example.

I read the rules, I hope everything is ok and someone will be able to help me. Thanks in advice.

I posted here, since is my first post and I'm not allowed to post on the development forum.

[LG Optimus Black] darie20:
Hello everyone,

I just tried to install the stable version of CM 7.2 (cyanogenmod) and I kind of have a little problem: after rooting the device as described by iProHackr in one of his videos on youtube (Unlock Root 2.4.2 did not work for me), I used the Clockworkmod Rom Manager, downloaded from there the stable version of CM 7.2 and started the installation. The Rom Manager asked me before, if I wish to do wipe the cache and dalvik cache, as well as backup the current os. I selected all options and then the installation started normally.

After some time, the phone rebooted (as part of the installation), but it's stuck at the LG boot logo. I can see the LEDs blinking, but nothing has happened for aprox. 2 hours. The phone does not boot.

What should I do next? Should I reboot in recovery mode and try to repeat the procedure? If yes, how do I boot into recovery mode?

Thanks in advance.
[LG Optimus Black] darie20:
Problem solved. I don't know what the problem was, but I made the same steps one more time, wiped the data and cleared the cache, installed the cm 7.2 again and after a couple of minutes, the phone started successfully.
[LG Optimus 2x] BarrySamuels:
I have recently rooted my Optimus 2x (P990) and am now thinking of trying ROM Manager. I have seen remarks that ROM Manager can be confused because the P990 mounts its internal storage as /sdcard so will it be safe to try ROM Manager to install CWM Recovery?

I have read quite a lot of posts but most of them seem to be rather old and software in this field seems to change very quickly.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rayman96:
Yes. Install CWM from Rom manager and then flash this CWM through rom managers CWM. Rusty's CWM will be able to work with both memorys. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] BarrySamuels:
I've had a look at that and I see that there are two .img files in there with various other files. Am I supposed to use just the image files? Do I use both of them? Otherwise what do I do with the .zip file?
[LG Optimus 2x] SuperSkill:
That file aren't flashable in cwm? In short you need to nvflash it. Pc needs drivers. When all ready open a command line and run the install-ext-cwm-windows.bat. Trym Hansen have a great tread with detailed instructions how to root and flash cwm, search for it ;)

I recently looked settings -> Battery and noticed that Android SYSTEM is more than 20%. I have attached some thumbs which was taken previously when battery was doing ok and recent one. Previously Screen/ cell standby was on top of the list. and android SYATEM was like 15% - 18%

How should I know what makes this happen suddenly. (Ex. Is there any app to identify the process)

3) Android system shows sudden change in % where it reads as 28% [Bothers me something doing this. :(]

[HTC One S] SteveYorks:
I was determined to make sure that my One S was an S4 version. Given that its a pure gamble which

version you will receive when purchasing from a retailer, and the fact that the odds are now well stacked

against getting an S4 version anyway, I had to come up with a workaround for this problem.

My solution was to buy second hand, this way I could know the exact model I was buying beforehand.

To do this I singled out a potential purchasing candidate on Ebay and then sent a question to the seller asking

him to tell me the model number stated on the box. As long as this was Z520e, it was ok to purchase.

This I did and got it for about £250 (brand new on amazon they are £310).

Sorted. Or so I thought... On examining the phone I saw that the serial and IMEI numbers were different

to that which were printed on the box label. Either the phone had been put in the wrong box originally or

the phone had been out for repair and substituted for a different model. Either way it could now be an S3

or S4. I downloaded quadrant and ran the test, luckily it was an S4 Phew!

So for anyone wanting an S4 from Ebay, be sure to ask for the model number printed on the box and for

the seller to check that the serial numbers on the box match up to the phone.
