[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schollianmj:
I wish it was that easy.... here is what I get when i try that..

If you notice the empty line in the middle of the red text, the next line states, "Your storage is not prepared yet, use UI menu for format and reboot menus.

I have let it run at the verizon splash screen overnight just incase it was rebuilding Dalvik, but no go.... and of course all verizon tells me is "As old as this is, you would be better off buying the newer version. Should i ring one up for you?"

It seems to me, like the onboard memory is fragged, and not holding the data when I flash via either Odin or Heimdall...

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schollianmj:
crap. thats what I thought.... been reading the threads about using a SD card to run and have NO freaking clue how to do that stuff. good thing this isnt my device. :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ableeker:
It has just become simpler! CM10 nightlies can be installed without modifications on an external storage card by creating an empty file activate_data_on_sdcard (the name is important) in the root of the card.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schollianmj:
OK, i just grabbed the latest nightly and the Gapps, but as this tab is NOT rooted, nor does it have ClockworkMod recovery installed, how do i flash it? Just put a file with that name on the SD card along with the zip file for CM10? do i still have to partition the SD card? Damn I feel like a noob...:cyclops:
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ableeker:
Well, we don't install CWM on the Tab, we install a kernel that has a recovery that can install unsigned zips from storage. The Overcome kernel is known to work. I believe there's a thread in General with links to the Overcome files.

Partition the card: 1 = /SDCARD, Primary FAT32, most of the capacity of the card (say 25 GB on a 32 GB card, or maybe 13 GB on a 16 GB card), 2 = /DATA, Primary Ext4, 2 or 4 GB, 3 = /CACHE, Primary Ext4, rest of the card.

Download the CM10 nightly and JB gapps and put them on the external card.

Create a file named activate_data_on_sdcard on the card.

Put the Tab into Download mode and flash the Overcome kernel as PDA with Odin. The Tab will not boot normally anymore after you've done this. Power off the Tab.

Boot it into recovery by powering it up while holding down Power on and Volume-up until you see the text Galaxy Tab. It should start the recovery.

Wipe data, cache, and Dalvik cache.

Go to the Install menu and select the option to install from storage. Select the nightly and flash it.

It may start to flash and then reboot into recovery. This should now be the CM10 recovery. Flash the nightly again.

Flash gapps for JB.

If all had gone well the Tab will boot and run from the external card.

Hm, I must have been doing this stuff too long now, because I find this whole process quite logical...

Colors boosted to reflect digitally what it actually looks like in person

I bought the rooCase 7" Super Bubble neoprene sleeve (great case, exactly what I need for tossing into a backpack and heading to campus) but have noticed some pretty intense staining on the back cover.

Any suggestions for cleaning this? Basic household cleaners haven't work, baking soda didn't work; I'm nervous to try more serious solvents because of electrical components (speaker) and potentially damaging the material (rubber?).

Still waiting for that premium case to surface...

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] manu44:
Hi Guys

Sorry for asking the same old question again..

I just got my AT&t HTC One x from US shipped over to India by my cousin.

It is locked to AT&t and i am unable to use a local network sim in it

I know i need to root it and turn S-off in order to unlock it.

The phone is on Firmware 1.85? and i have tried the ways mentioned in xda to root it but i guess when i click "Check for updates" it doesn't work.

So my question is

Can i manually by connecting the phone to Computer,update firmware to 2.20 so that i can root it that way?

And is it possible to unlock the BOOTLOADER w/out rooting so that phone gets unlocked to other carriers?

please help me out guys i have tried everything to make it work.. thank you
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] area51avenger:
Unlocking the bootloader/rooting/dancing in circles WILL NOT sim unlock the phone.

You will need to use an online sim unlocking service (usually about 20 bucks) to get the unlock code
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Currently, S-Off has not been achieved for this phone. And as already mentioned, bootloader unlock will not get you SIM unlock, and no free hack/mod method currently exists. You either need to use a paid unlock service, or if your cousin is currently an AT&T account holder, he can ask AT&T for the SIM unlock code (he will need the IMEI number of the phone, and maybe other info).

If you want root and unlocked bootloader for other reasons (flashing custom ROMs and other mods) there is no reason to upgrade to 2.20. Root method exists for 1.85. You need to root, SuperCID, then unlock the bootloader. Then you can install a custom recovery and flash custom ROMs.

Upgrading to 2.20 is not recommended. The 2.20 RUU will upgrade your hboot, which plugs the holes by which kernels and radios can be flashed from recovery. You will have to flash the boot.img separately every time your flash a ROM. No benefit to updating to 2.20, and actually lose ability to do some things.

If you still want root and bootloader unlock, refer to my index for links to root methods, etc.: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671237

And no, bootloader unlock is not possible without root (temp root in case of 2.20) on the AT&T One X.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] manu44:
Dancing in circles? ok got your point.

Thank you for a detailed answer. The reason i though it would unlock the sim was cause i had used other htc phones earlier and when you root them the S-off was achieved so thats why.. anyhow.. thank you for enlightening my dumb bum.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] area51avenger:
You're not dumb. Just ignorant. Now you have been enlightened. You still have a great phone, you just might have to pay a little bit so you can unlock and use it
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
The word "ignorant" has always sounded like a pejorative word to me. But I had to look up the definition, figuring maybe I don't really know the literal meaning of the word. Which turned out to be the case. One of the definitions of ignorant is "Lacking knowledge, information, or awareness about something in particular" which seems to exactly fit this situation. I guess I gave myself the English lesson for the day!

Every phone is different, and HTC in particular is always changing around their security measures. So the OP is not dumb in any way, but was just missing some particular pieces of information.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] vpy:
Hello,

I'm new to Android and rooting and I've decided to root my Galaxy S3. However, I'd like to know what is the most current and safest way to root the phone. I've tried downloading the app by following the video in the Generals section but the apps seems to support only 4.0.4 and I'm @ 4.1 and a Google search seems to turn up some methods that are a couple of months back. Any help is much appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] m20120:
Jelly Bean does not require anything special to root. The method is the same as with ICS.

I used the Team Epic Root method.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] vpy:
Thanks for the quick reply, but do you happen to know if this is the safest method?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Nybs31:
I used the same method to root while I was on ICS and had no problems. Just make sure you don't reboot the phone after you Odin the recovery to it. Set Odin to not reset device and then manually boot into recovery and flash the team epic root from recovery file. If you reboot your phone after you flash the custom recovery in Odin and don't immediately manually boot into recovery and flash the team epic file afterward, your phone will overwrite the custom recovery you just flashed and put stock recovery back on your device.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] m20120:
It is as safe as it gets. Rooting on the GS3 is very easy and safe (especially compared to how the HTC Evo process was). You do not have to deal with exploits in a locked bootloader, etc. You simply flash a custom recovery with Odin, and the flash a file that roots the phone with that recovery. The only gotcha (and it is not much of one) was added with LG8 which requires you to boot into recovery before booting the system ROM, so that you can root and disable the code that restores the stock recovery. That is included in the Team Epic Root for Recovery file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] vpy:
thanks i'll try it and hopefully won't mess up too bad :D

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pariah1570:
There is not a 4g toggle but I believe it contains a 4g widget
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deesugar:
Yeah, I'm well aware of that but you have to stop what your doing and go to that screen in order to turn on 4G which is a heck of a lot more time and trouble then a drop down toggle that you can turn on/off almost anywhere.

Anyone know why this toggle is missing???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] byrdcfmma:
Maybe its not in JB ASOP so its not in any of the roms
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] No_Nickname90:
I think I know why. I've noticed that ROMs that have extended toggles don't have 4G toggles. I think it's more related to the theme wanting to be compatible with more things.

Think about it. The theme is probably compatible with more than just this phone. So they would have to make individual themes for each phone. That probably seemed more hectic than necessary.

Kinda lyk why Google didn't include LTE. You would need a particular extended toggle bar for the E4GT and another one for another phone. Without the 4G toggle, the extended menu is compatible with lyk a wide variety.

This is my guess.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] predation:
So with my phone, I absolutely have to tether all day.

does anyone know the inductive charge rate for the nexus 4 wireless orb??

would be awesome to have the charger charger faster than what the phone would use tethering.

Love the inductive charge idea as i'm currently plugging/unplugging all freaking day at my desk.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yahoowizard:
Someone in another thread mentioned that the orb is, unfortunately, slower than connecting directly via a wire. It's more just for ease of access.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex240188:
Yes. Its for ease of access. Of course its going to be slower. Same as WiFi vs Ethernet. Wired is always going to be quicker but wireless makes life simpler

I can't remember where I read this or if I'm just making it up but the wireless charging should be at about 60% efficiency.

Meaning 1hr of wired charging would be equal to just over an hour&half of orb charging
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] predation:
yeah. i just want the battery to charge faster than what the phone uses.

i guess there is only one way to find out! lol
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klin1344:
I've never used tethering so I don't know how fast it eats battery, but chances are the charger will charge faster than the battery drain..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatAuc12:
Considering rule of thumb current large screen phones break even USB charging, I would assume wireless charging is at very least faster than USB or we would hear about wireless charging being slow a whole lot more.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] USSENTERNCC1701E:
The orb base has a usb mini b connector to supply it power, so the orb is receiving the same voltage the phone would. And induction is inefficient, so it will probably charge slower. Unless the orb is drawing more amperage than the phone would to make up the difference. I would expect it to be slower.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bfspider:
It would be more so how much current is passed through the magnetic fields. 5V is 5V. It just depends on how fast the 5V's gets pulled into the battery.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ajfink:
I imagine that, with the screen off, it should charge more than is drained. Even if it was an overall negative differential, it should slow the drain down enough to keep you going all day.

That said, this is about as bad of a worst-case scenario as you can get for long-term battery performance.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shilent:
My Palm Pre and Touchstone charging was noticeably faster than charging off a computer USB port, but still slower than wall charging (1A). So I would think wireless charging will be fine while tethering, as long as the screen is off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ORStoner:
I remember reading somewhere that the charge rate of wireless charging is 1.5A. I'm pretty certain.
