[Windows Phone 7 General] CrazyTegger:
Here's my story,

I had a stock HTC Surround on TELUS that was upgraded to 7.8, but I wanted to install a custom rom. I downgraded my SPL by using the TELUS Test ROM available off the web (link escapes me at the moment). This brought my SPL down to 1.4.220.2(113577) and WP7 to 7004.

When I went to install RSPL, (so I could then HSPL), the phone wouldn't reboot like it's supposed to. It just stayed in the RBG screen

Now, if I try and install either the Cingular SPL or ROM using RUU, it fails, stating Invalid Vendor ID.

I tried using the goldcard method and Cingular SPL or ROM freeze during 'Loading..'. TELUS Test ROM from above works perfectly (So I know my GoldCard is at least working)

If I try and upgrade my phone by either using Zune or Cab Sender, it successfully upgrades from 7004 to Nodo, but fails trying to get to Mango:

ERROR: E_CANNOT_UPDATE_TO_HIGHEST_VERSION: CreatePaths: For package named: QC_8x50_ULDR_BOOT cannot find a path to highest expected version of: 2250.21.15204.502

ERROR: E_INVALID_SIGNATURE:

Package: \OSRoot\Application Data\Microsoft\DeviceUpdate\Packages\1F43F151-0D31-4291-B316-7018956578FD.1.pks\QC_8X50_ULDR.cab.pkg	FROM Version: 0.0.0.0	TO Version: 2250.21.15204.502	GUID = {6939BB9F-56E4-47F3-AF2A-01DDFB414825}

There's a whole bunch more, with the same type of error. I belive it may have something to do with the firmware version.

I tried using the OEM cab files available on the web, but they're for Carrier 502, and I'm on 661, so they fail as well

So here I am, stuck at Nodo and unable to install HSPL to get a custom ROM.

I created a thread in the Surround Forum, but it's pretty dead there, and I had a few replies, but they died quickly (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2141523).

One guy mentioned that I needed to unlock my phone before HSPL would work, but I don't know what he means by that. I thought that HSPL was used to unlock the phone. Is he meaning IMEI unlock? I don't understand. This is my main question: What unlock is he talking about, and how can I get RSPL installed on my phone.

The latest thing is that I've managed to developer unlock my phone, if that helps at all.

Thanks for your guys input. I really appreciate it!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamiarc:
Hi folks,

I was planing to buy the N4, but, seriously, after almost 6 months of the launch date, I don't know if it still is a great buy or if I should wait for the next wave of cellphones coming this spring (and if there are good phones upcoming).

Any clues on a better cellphone than N4 ? (I was also thinking about the Optimus, the one with the best hardware specs, but I have the same doubt, is it worth right now?)

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hgigh:
I say if price is a concern then the N4 is the most bang for your buck.

I honestly did not need this thing but I am glad that I got it (coming from G2X running CM7).

Running stock unrooted (for now) and still happy (odd, I know)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omer Slomovic:
Naa...

The Google I/O Come In May so wait two monthes for the X Phone or next nexus ...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamiarc:
From the phone that I have, I shouldn't even think and buy it right away (I'm using an old HTC Diamond touch, was using a BB but a thief robbed me 2 months ago...), but I'm not really sure if I buy it today, tomorrow I won't be sad due to a launch of a new version or really better phone, I mean, it's been around 6 months since the current generation of smartphones started (quad-cores @1.5Ghz [S4] 2GB ram), I wonder if the next gen (either 8-core or @2.5 or S5 or more ram, or even better video processors) will be launched really soon or will take at last more 6 months or so..

Anyone that has more information and is more into it, know something or have any hint on what to do ?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamiarc:
@Omer, that is my biggest concern, I wonder if they will really launch the next X Phone there (since they said that it isn't time yet for a new Nexus) and since I saw some news saying that the X-Phone won't be topmost hardware but will be the better price/hardware equivalency, I wonder if it will be really better than the upcoming Samsung S4 or perpahps the next gen upcoming HTC phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TobiS87:
AW: [Q] Is it worth ?

And what do you want to do with an 8 core processor and more than 2 gigs of RAM? Dude, seriously. I can't even imagine how to use the Nexus while 2 gigs of RAM or all four cores at max frequency except for weird games with, for a phone, great graphics but generally bad controls.

That said I think the manufacturers should start focussing on other things than processors and RAM. Today's generation of phones got enough resources. It seems that in the future we will see big improvements in the phones displays. See 1080p and flexible displays. Especially flexible displays could really change the way we use smart phones but I doubt we will see that in 2013.

Just wait what manufacturers show on MWC. Then think about if you really need the ridiciulous specs shown there and furthermore think about the fact that the N4 will be supported by Google for at least two years.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 100eyes:
First of all, it's been exactly 4 months since the release, not 6.

If you keep the mentality of "waiting for the next best thing" you'll never buy anything because there's always a next best thing around the corner. Whatever phone you decide to buy, it's not gonna be the greatest thing for more than a few months and you'll just have to live with that.

There's already the wave of 5", 1080p, 13MP phones coming out, but the reason why the N4 is still attractive is all those new phones will still cost 600+ off contract.

No one's stopping you from waiting another 6 months, but that's 6 months you could've been enjoying a good phone. I had one before and that HTC Diamond is some hot garbage.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamiarc:
Yep I was thinking about this 2 things too, what will be the upgrade in Phone X / next Nexus ?

Google usually do have major differences between the releases, so I'm really curious about the next phone, I'm wondering if the features that this new one gonna have will be amazing (it doens't really need to be better proc. or ram, as you said, we currently don't even use it all), but will be the next "awesome feature", and I'm worried to buy now beucase there seems to be so little time left for the next wave that really holds me back of buying it today.

Btw, @100eyes that is another concern, the price, from the leaks, and news and blabla, it seems that Phone X will be coming with a lower price basis.

The mistery on it is holding me more than anything, if I already knew some of the new features, probably I would buy today the N4 as it seem to be more than good enough for me (I have a N7 and I love the proc and all the things, and it is slower than the N4 LG)

Btw, about the release date, the wide release was 4 months agora (end of october) but the first release to a restricted public and testing public was 6 months ago, I'm talking about knowing what you gonna get and not what I'll really have my hands on in 1 or 2 months, I was planning on a max 4 months from now timegap.

Anyway, those 2 answers were pretty good, this topic is more to make a discussion of the real value than to make me decide hehe

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uploder:
I say pull the trigger. coming from a G2x as well I couldnt be happier with rooted stock. All of the threads you see around here with people complaining are either

a) legitimate issues that can only be resolved by RMA. Its very possible to receive a faulty unit.

b) complete and utter retardation.

The threads complaining about "washed" out colors and other things such as that are completely bias and you really shouldnt let that effect your decision. Hope that helps!

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] unevoljitelj:
If its that protective piece of lets say glass that got scratched you could remove it. I did it after concluding that my phone would be in service for more then a month(yea?!) i removed it and its like that for a year now. Still good.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] BlueFord:
How did you remove it? What do you mean by still good? What do you do if it gets dusty? I was really loving the quality of pictures before this happened, since the pictures were better than with a digital camera (during the days) :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] unevoljitelj:
It was just glued on and the real lens are deeper inside phone. Its a little harder to scratch the lens unless u poke it with something. They get dusty tho and i clean it with with that ear cotton stick things, sorry dont know how they are called in english. Its been more then a year since i removed protection and the lens are still fine, no damage, pictures are fine. There is always a chance that something might happen to the lens tho..

[Nexus 4 Accessories] rdelfin:
This is what it is stopping me from getting the Google ORB for my N4 >

I have a case (and if you don't, I commend you for your bravery). Not only I have a case, I have the Ballsitic Case, the sturdiest of them all, not intended to be taken off and on, on a blink, not at all.

And then I thought> the purpose for the orb is to avoid your self from the hassle of aligning the microUSB plug with the port and all, but if I have a case, what would be faster? To plug a cable to a phone with a case, or to incur on taking a case off in order to "avoid the hassle" of plugging.

It is more work for me to take the case off than it is to plug a micro USB cable, so no ORB for me...

Am I alone?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] mackster248:
Imo, you don't need one. It's more of a luxury than anything. But if you like it aesthetically and have the extra dough, why not.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] smirkis:
i have the extra dough, and still passed on it. it looks very cool but for me to be truely satisfied i need one for the office, and the house. not worth 140 to fit my want. cables work fine.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] uploder:
as most have said the orb isnt needed but im not gonna lie it looks cool as hell! im still undecided if im gonna drop the dough for it. I also need to confirm if the ringke fusion case will work with it too. so yeah, theres that....
[Nexus 4 Accessories] hgigh:
I agree completely here. I would possibly consider a $40 charger but $70 is justification for the hassle of picking up a microUSB and plugging it in.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] farangutan:
I have the Zens wireless charger and it works with the ringke slim case. I bought the Zens literally a week before the orb went up for sale. Ain't that a b*tch. I bought the orb anyway to have one at work and at home and to report back on a comparison.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] hohoXD1233:
wait until other people with the ballstic case have got the orb to confirm whether it works or not before deciding imo
[Nexus 4 Accessories] rmgill:
Consider a dock instead. I'm happy with mine thus far. Less than half the price of a Qi charger, almost as convenient, but admittedly less futurist.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Backslash10:
I am buying it because I had to replace my last galaxy nexus micro USB port because it went bad. I live in Florida and we have a lot of problems with corrosion. I cant tell you how many ports I've replaced over the years because of that I now have those silicon plugs on almost all my devices ports so I don't have that issue.

Ha we're on the same boat. I actually bought the orb the other day and 5 minutes later, I cancelled it because I thought about the case (I also have the Ballistics Case).

Although today I tried to beam with my N7 and it worked, the N7 have the Asus case that Google sells and both N4 and N7 had the case on. So it might still work even with the case on, I'm trying to see if anyone in town (Vegas) bought it so I can try it before buying it again lol.

I'm not sure if the Qi charger works through your case but keep in mind Qi/wireless induction coil has nothing to do with the technology behind beam So you wouldn't know if one would work just based on the fact that the other technology did work.

Charger DOES work through a case. Confirmed.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] willshep:
As I would expect, but you never know unless you try :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] rdelfin:
Could you confirm if the google ORB works with the Ballistic Case specifically? Does the orb hold the phone with this case firmly?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] grubbster:
I do not have that case but this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38033518&postcount=1013 says it does. The orb does not "hold" the phone. It uses mostly friction and possibly some magnetism.

Hello, I am new to CM10.1 but have tried many different ROMs including Helly Bean, Revolt 3.2 and nightly, N.E.A.R, PA. Basically most of CM10.1 based ROMs. I keep getting no in call sound after a while after installation and or after restore some apps from TB (app only). I read there are couple methods to fix it temporary and one work best for me is every reboot, play a system sound while on loud in order for the sound to work. No problem in JB 4.1.2 whatsoever. I'm currently using Helly Bean and doing the system sound method at every reboot i need.

Wondering if there's a permanent solution to this? Also confirm that baseband is not the problem or hardware. Any help is greatly appreciated! Cheers!

And how exactly is watching a single youtube video a ram overload, and playing NOVA 3 on max settings isnt?

This has nothing to do with ram overload... Hasnt happened once on my 2011 handset.
[Sony Tablet S] psxpetey:
Well when playing nova or any game for that matter most processes are killed at start or during the game where as in when your watching youtube and f****** around with the bar for ten minutes back and forth while other processes are running I could see how it could overload and reboot. No developer would ever take into account in a movie app someone playing with it like that loading and reloading at different points. But your right they could definitley make the memory managers better thats for sure especially on the s1 haha
[Sony Tablet S] Zer0K3wL:
People never heared off background caching ?

Any app in the background will just go into cache once you switch to another app.

Heck if open't like 20 tabs the amount of ram i had left was like 700 while normaly only have like 300 400 mb left because everything get forced into background cache.

Anyway i'm the owner off the video i shall say this if had a 100 dollar cheap tablet browsing and playing video's never caused my tablet to freeze or shutdown, this was with older android vision tough.

This tablet can't even stay stable its damn frustating at times.

What bothers me most atm that if not heared any oficial word from sony that they fixing this or are aware off these issues.

Their verry invisible which is just anoying when you payed premium for a tablet like this.

what pisses me off also is that android 4.0.4 probably dont have these issues, and they choose to release the tablet with 4.0.3 which is just lazy.

All in all from what I've seen there really isn't much source change from 4.1.2 to 4.2, so it shouldn't be to hard for someone with time to get it for us using h8s sources...just a few hardware things will need to be tweaked as cyanogenmod doesn't officially support any msm8660 device for 4.2 that I know of...there are however unofficial builds and we can use their hardware sources
