There's a huge problem with this law... Developers are NOT going to honor it. In theory, and on paper, they will. (To protect themselves from legal action) ... But the fact of the matter is this.. It's illegal to download music... How many people has THAT stopped?

If anything, this new law in effect will cause an outrage, and actually help the community. It's bred in our genetic code to be "curious"... So that "curiosity" may very well spark new findings and methods for unlocking, just for the simple fact "someone" is trying to tell us we can't.

This wasn't put in play to hurt the modification community. It was put in place to protect the carriers themselves.

Retail Value -vs- Contract termination to move your newly unlocked phone to a cheaper carrier.

Contract termination is almost always cheaper... So the carriers are actually losing money that way. It's all about the money, and never about the customer. Well...the majority of the time anyways..

You mean united states, because America Is not a country, is a continent. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DekinGBar:
I honestly think we should feel stepped down on devs pride with this law.The operators are putting themselves in "God Mode" and trying to stick you to them.They have absolutely no right to this!Screw these bastards!

Yes i know. But ask somebody in the United States of America on the street and they will say they live in America.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mine420:
I think this will just make people who really care about this sort of thing step back and take a look at how much money they are wasting buying locked phones. Last time I checked and things may have changed is when I buy a carrier locked phone from att the phone it self costs me 100$ while the phone unlocked is about 450$ so they make it sound like I am getting a good deal buying the phone with two year contracts while in turn they force me to buy expensive and UN-needed carrier provided data plans that are extremely limited. Last time I was with att back when g1 came out it cost me something like 49$ for the phone plan plus extra 39$ for data plan they would not allow me to get the cheaper data plans since the higher priced one in what was "required" by that phone. Soon I canceled that plan. Next I bought with cash a sony x10 cost me something like 300$ then I had my 39$ unlimited talk and text from t-mobile and then 10$ a month for 2gb data since it is all i needed since wifi is everywhere. That saved me 29$x24 months = 696$ - 300 for the phone = total savings of 396$ Not counting the fact that t-mobile plan was cheaper.

Point is for the most part it is cheaper to get an unlocked phone and a lower data plan than it is to buy a contracted phone.

and btw this law effects SIM locks only not BOOTLOADER locks. Still safe to break bootloaders for now. Odd how last year the DMCA made it so they had to give us unlock codes and now it makes it so it is illegal to unlock sims.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Toledo_JAB:
It still comes down to the fact that carriers pay you to use their service for 18 months - 2 years. They pay you by giving a $400-$600 phone to you for CHEAP and even FREE prices. No one is forcing anybody to get a subsidized phone instead of unlocked versions. This reaction is comparable to free G-Mail users complaining about how Google scans and saves ALL users E-mail to create a database on them for possible ways to sell something. They can do this because YOU LET THEM. If you don't like how AT&T or others treat customers then don't use their services

Only if you ask someone that doesn't care about the United States of America, how it was founded and the Constitution that gives us our Liberty.

Sorry for the off-topic, but as a happy AT&T customer and a citizen of the USA I felt the need to mini-rant ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alexpraga:
It seems cheaper but it's not in the long run! Telecom companies are not really there to buy us phones from manufacturers and give them to us! We are just asking for a loan to buy a phone!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Sirence:
I don't know about your country but in Germany it is always a lot cheaper to buy an unlocked phone.

The only difference is that when you get a locked phone from a carrier, you don't have to pay it all at once (but with extremely high monthly fees)

Please note that is not completely illegal for you to unlock your phone in the US - you just cannot use third party companies to do it. A carrier can willingly allow you to unlock your phone - this part is not illegal as they still can issue an unlock code if it inline with their unlock policies.

Hello guys,

I develop ReVolt ROM for 5 devices, I9100, I9100G, I9300, N7000, Mako ..... The thing is, I was looking for a build bot so it would make it easier for me to build .... For one build to finish on my computer, it takes 190 MINUTES !!! So to build for 5 DEVICES, it takes almost 39.3 Hours for a full set of builds !!!!!!

I was looking for a build bot, but I can't find anything .. Can anybody tell me where i can find one who offers something like that ???

Thanks in advance,

Can you provide another Buildbot ?? They only accept team admissions but I work alone :( Can anybody please help ??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
I would recommend taking a look at the TRAC build bot, it doesn't require you to have a team. You can find more information about it from here. Also if you want to look at the documentation for it to get an idea of how to use it and what it involves I would suggest taking a look at the official documentation.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnhany97:
I know it, tried it ... but It never worked properly with me even after following the steps .... Like, I know goo.im provide something like that .... But they don't accept anyone .....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
Another thing that I found is a shell script that automatically builds Android ROM's from there source directories, you can find more information about it here. Also I think one the reasons you may not have been able to get build bot to work right is because you must add in repo support which Android relies on, as mentioned in this article.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnhany97:
l have my own scripts ready and everything, all I need is to find a buildbot for Android devs..... I also think that XDA offers some for Recognized Developers ... Not so sure about that ..

I WILL SELL IT AFTER REPAIR AND I NEVER WANT A ANDOIR PHONE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE !
[HTC One S] Goatshocker:
Rooting is hard and will brick the phone? Yeah... I dont even know what to say...

Dont blame the device because you are too stupid to follow instructions.

The ONLY operation that bricks the One S is downgrading the hboot.
[HTC One S] Roundtableprez:
Insert stupid person meme here... Anyways long story short if your to dumb to follow the simple instructions(including a program that will do everything for you) then why did you set out to root your phone? And if your done with android does that mean your going to be an apple fanboy? You'll surely brick your iPhone a lot quicker then you did your one s.:p

Man, thanks you for that informative and helpful thread! Now I know exactly what not to do to get the same brick as you did. Also I am sure that everyone checks xda before getting a phone.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mr_krunchi:
Hi, I'm new to the HTC Evo 4G LTE, but I've been flashing roms through TWRP on multiple android devices and have had experience with it all. I've run into a problem though that I can't find a work around and have searched everywhere I know before posting here. I don't ever post so I can't post the URL link, but its the recommended guide through using HTC's unlocking method.

All seemed dandy till I got to the TWRP part. I flashed it over using the command prompt and the file. Then I selected Recovery. TWRP loads completely and everything looks like it works, except the touch screen. Obviously with this version of TWRP, touch is the only way to get the thing to function, so I'm stuck and can't flash superuser over. Can anyone help me out here?

Few Facts:

First time this phone has had the bootloader unlocked

When rebooting into the stock rom, the touch screen works just fine, so it isn't a hardware issue

I've taken the MicroSD card out so it is purely just the phone itself

Tried flashing over (seems older) clockworkmod recovery to see if it works, but I believe its outdated, considering this phone has 4.1.1 on it and the last update was back in August. It didn't work.

Any help would be much appreciated!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] volk9029:
Did you try using volume buttons to move between the items, press home to select?

Sent from my lair.

---------- Post added at 10:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 AM ----------

Edit. You also did not mention what version of recovery you use. Did you try to downgrade to different version?

Sent from my lair.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mr_krunchi:
Yes I tried using the volume buttons and they didn't work. The only thing that functions is the power button, but that locks TWRP, which is no use. For the versions, I tried the newest 2.4.0.0 and 2.1.8 and both had the same problem.

One thing to note also: I received the phone yesterday and while I was contemplating about rooting or not, I decided to update since it was still back at 4.0.4 ICS. Apparently, there was an update for the phone literally today, which I may have received since I'm not seeing the version of the RUU uploaded anywhere. My software version is 3.16.651.3 710RD.

Also, I'm on HBOOT 2.09 if that helps at all.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
U flashed the new firmwear zip?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mr_krunchi:
If you mean installed the new firmware via OTA, yes. After updating everything OTA, I started the rooting process.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Wolosyks:
I have same issue. Have stock/rooted/S-ON and have had no issues keeping root over the last few OTAs. The last OTA broke Voodoo Rootkeeper so I should have known this one was gonna be REALLY toxic. I rolled back to stock recovery to accept OTA and when I went to flash TWRP the touchscreen is non-responsive. TWRP is running because the clock progresses and the battery shows as charging. Power button, as OP describes, does nothing but lock TWRP. I know I take the risk of losing root with OTA acceptance but I depend on all you guys who are much smarter than I to figure those things out. Its why I try to lob donations at the most helpful devs out there...

Thanks in advance for figuring this out gents (and ladies?)...

~ScottWo
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
And THIS is why we recommend S-OFF to people, and tell people NEVER to take OTAs. At this point, I think you're stuck, unfortunately. You won't be able to access TWRP until someone figures out what the new touch panel image broke. You'll be able to use your ROM fine, but it seems this was something that was done intentionally by HTC to prevent custom firmware (or even software) from working properly.

I could be way off base, though, I guess . . . :rolleyes:.

Root

Sorta the same problem, i dont flash roms but i like having my phone rooted. I had to redo the whole process because i lost my root access and i heard they were doing an update, so i did the 3.15 ruu and went back to complete stock, did the 3.16 update, unlocked the phone and it worked great up until i installed twrp 2.4.0.0, same problem touch screen not working. So i figured i would just run the 3.15 ruu again and just keep it there, unfortunately, the 3.16 version hboot which is 2.09 as well, will not let the 3.15 ruu run, says incompatible hboot, but it just restarts the phone, it did overwrite twrp somehow during the process of trying 3.15 the second time and removed it from the phone. From talking to some people, just have to wait until someone figures out how to fix that to get back up and running. I am pretty new to root but i like having those options to screw with the phone. Anxiously awaiting a fix though. Need to flash some roms soon, but never could get them to work, worked great on my Evo 4g...just not having the same luck with 4G LTE.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tmobin:
Same issue here

I never rooted my phone before and kept it updated up to the most recent 3.16.651.3 and it used to say "Locked" under Bootloader. I followed the instructions to the T from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2026938 with 2.09 Hboot files etc. All this and the problem I had is that when I got to the step where you load up TWRP, the touch screen didn't respond, nor did the volume rocker allow selection. Single pressing the power button, for some reason, showed "Slide to unlock" but I couldn't slide/unlock. Holding power still rebooted the phone.

Relocked and reloaded the original stock ROM, followed the procedure again, and it worked perfectly.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Stuart1745:
yeah I just got my phone back from RMA today ( parts of the screen were non responsive loose pin or something). when I sent it off I relocked it and Re S-ONed ( on H boot 1.19)it. as I read some places where they wont fix any hardware if the software has been S-OFFed.

when it came back it had the 3.16 stock firmware(Hboot 2.09) and now I cant S-OFF it ( dirty racoon gives errors about 3.16) cant downgrade it ( 3.15 RUU wont load) cant get roms on it( clockwork cant mount SD cards, and TWRP wont respond to touch)

needless to say I'm rather upset with HTC right now
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tonyevo52:
Agreed

Totally agree, this kinda blows because if i could at least go back to 3.15 ruu it wouldn't be so bad, but i cant even do that. Hopefully someone way smarter at this will figure it out soon and get a fix going.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
It's conceivably possible to change the main version on the /misc partition to match the previous OTA version (3.15.651.13), and then you should be able to flash the 3.15 RUU/PJ75IMG, since the HBOOT version didn't change.

But I'm S-OFF, so I don't have to worry about testing that theory.
