[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MARIO SHARK:
do you guys know the cheapest way to get the htc one...if i signed a two-year contract with the evo 4g lte last june?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] swaze:
And the US versions are NOT getting octa anything. Same processor as the HTC One.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Ryno_666:
Call Sprint get them to do the buy out for you. They should give you prorated amount based on the remaining time in your contract, could be worth it. I just had to do this. Now I'm just quietly waiting for my brilliant One's to arrive at Best Buy.:)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] acme64:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Quetzalcoatl:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] acme64:
What a waste of time :p

My contract isn't up until December, i'm wondering if i can upgrade anyway. I never understood the delay. who cares if my contract isn't up? why do we have to wait?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cj719:
Not sure if the one is worth the upgrade for me specially with sense5 running great on the lte granted get $100 back from HTC for my 3d but nothing major over the lte in my opinion... with sprint is it true if you don't use your upgrade in a time frame you lose it?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] waterbound:
For anyone that isn't ready for upgrading (anyone with Evo 4G LTE on contact..) should be able to upgrade with a new 2 yr contract, buying out the old and with your cell trade should be able to do pretty well. Regardless what they are worth on the street or selling online for, you will probably be offered $100 for an EVO 4G LTE (in good shape) etc.

I figure that is how most will transfer over, it least how I plan too when the new HTC arrives. I imagine most will get it, I remember the same conversations taking place for the OG EVO and LTE but that is IMO.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bayniner:
I might sound like a noob but isn't the camera on the HTC One a downgrade from the EVO LTE camera at just 4 megapixel compared to 8 megapixel

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] acme64:

Buying out the remainder of your contract is what I meant.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sharkcow:
Hi all,

has anyone ever gotten adb backup/restore to work correctly on an ASUS transformer?

I would like to downgrade to ICS in order to root without unlocking but obviously I don't want to lose my app data.

So adb backup would be the way to go... BUT:

* "adb backup all" just creates a 41-byte file with the header information but nothing else

* "adb backup all -shared" works for a long time but afaict the contents are _only_ the files on the shared partition, which I could copy manually as well, no app data

* backing up single apps _seems_ to work, at least the backup-file contains a manifest file and some others under an "app" subdirectory. But so far, I've only found people complaining that adb restore doesn't work on transformers.

* if I try to restore a backup containing a single app, logcat reports that BackupAgent ist started (presumably for the first file), after precisely 5 minutes it issues

"BackupManagerService: dataChanged but no participant pkg='com.android.providers.settings' uid=1001"

and then times out with

"BackupManagerService: TIMEOUT: token=5029c217"

Any clues? Is there a realistic chance that I could restore app data manually as root if I adb backup every single app?

thanks for any hints...

[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
With just rooted without unlocked device, the best backup is to use Titanium backup.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
According to my adb's command line help, it's "-all", not "all".

---------- Post added at 07:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:56 PM ----------

Great, but how do you use it to make a backup before rooting?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
That's why I said with rooted device. Without root, there are many backup apps on the market that would do the job without killing yourself with adb stuff...
[Asus Transformer TF700] sharkcow:
sorry, my typo. Of course I used "-all", doesn't work.

I wasn't talking about apps, but the app _data_, e.g. game progress, which is in the /data/data directory, thus not accessible w/o root!
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
Does adb not need the manufacturer's code?

-i 0x0B05)

I'm hardly an adb expert, but since fastboot needs it... :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
No - and even fastboot doesn't need it anymore (since the JB bootloader, I think).
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
OK. Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] sharkcow:
thanks for the discussion, but I'm still missing a confirmation that adb backup/restore works on transformers at all...

-> has anyone ever completed a full backup/restore cycle?

-> can anyone make sense of the error message "dataChanged but no participant" I get on restoring?

If not, I think a warning should be posted concerning this matter. Recently, people have been coming up with gui backup solutions for non-rooted tablets which make use of adb (e.g. holo backup). It would save transformer users quite some grief if it was clear that these tools don't work for them before they trust them.

1) SEARCH and think

Look in the forum, don't be lazy and READ, most of us like to help people, but why do we have to repeat everything a thousand times. You waste our time.

Essential places to look at:

Forum on this site

PDAPhoneHome FAQ http://pdaphonehome.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=21

Google

2) Define the problem

"My XDA doesn't work. Help me" is wrong ;-)

always include all available details - error messages, behaviour of the device

If you are upgrading ROM include device version (eg. T-Mobile MDA PW10A2, ROM 3.14.03, Radio stack T3.10) - this can be found in Settings>Device Information.

3) Be polite

"Gimme a ROM v 3.15.15"

this can't be seen in the fora but I keep on receiving such e-mails. Why don't you people say "Please, can you give me a link to the 3.15.15. ROM? Thx blabla."

Half the e-mails sound like if I HAD to give you something. I am not employed by HTC nor do I provide technical support as anybody's employee. Sorry to those who ask politely :)

4) Get a proper name for your thread

Don't name your threads like "Help" "XDA" "ROM update" or "Lame question." We want to know what the thread is about BEFORE we read it. That's what subjects are for...

[Thinkpad Tablet General] fostex68:
First I'm from Germany an my written English is a little rusty, so excuse me for some strange grammar... ;)

Ich have a question about GPS and CM10 0.9.2.

My Thinkpad Tablet is a European Version with UMTS. The GPS works quite well with th stock rom 4.03. GPS fix in about 1 minutes. Not so bad. With CM10 installed I doesn't get a fix even after 10 minutes. Is it possible that the GPS module is configured to the wrong antenna input? I read somewhere that the GPS uses the UMTS antenna (external input mux setting?) in the 3G model and not the internal GPS one. There mus be a reason why the CM10 GPS is really unusual, but the stock ROM is quite ok. I tested thin behaviour several times switching between stock rom an CM10 - this is reproducible.

Thanks,

Volker
[Thinkpad Tablet General] fostex68:
No one any idea? For the GPS Antenna there is a entry in the settings menu, but only "internal" selectable. Maybe switching to "external" solves the GPS problem for the 3G version of the TPT.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Ameisentaetowierer:
AW: [Q] GPS

Can't you just copy the settings?

Cwm often reuses the proprietary drivers. So the settings from stock rom might also run on cwm.

Also:

Ckeck

/etc/gps.conf, /etc/gps/gpsconfig.xml, /etc/gps, /data/gps

If you have any of them, they must be readable by all users.

Micky
[Thinkpad Tablet General] fostex68:
I tried to copy /etc/gps.conf from the stock rom already, but the receive strength is as poor as formerly. I'll check to copy the xml-file too. In /data/gps I've only a 0-Byte file.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Ameisentaetowierer:
AW: [Q] GPS

Try setting permisions for /data/gps to 777.

Micky
[Thinkpad Tablet General] fostex68:
It's now working!

The stock rom doesn't store anything except glgpsctrl (the control pipe, not a file) under /data/gps, don't ask me why.

Under CM10 I had the file gldata.sto, so I deleted everything under /data/gps and installed a modified gpsconfig.xml file from a German Forum in /etc/gps:

(Sorry I've no permission to post the URL.... www(dot)android-hilfe(dot)de/medion-lifetab-p9516-forum/224553-schwaches-gps-20(dot)html)

Now the GPS get a fix between 10s and 60s this seem almost faster than with the stock rom

Thank you!
[Thinkpad Tablet General] da_reeseboy:
I just tried this myself... awesome! Since the GPS is notoriously bad from what I've read I just accepted that it sucked. Not anymore :)

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
I've searched the web about this, but found only one other post about it with no replies.

When you guys dock or undock your tablet, while running an app, does the app "refresh" or something like that?

Mine does it all the time, and it's quite annoying, because some of the apps close completely, making me lose all the work i've done. Currently i'm on 4.2.2, but it also happened on the stock firmware.

Any ideas, or i have to live with it?

BTW, it doesn't happen on Ubuntu, so i don't think it's a hardware problem
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Which ROM? I do not experience this anymore on Liquidsmooth, but it used to be a horrible cancerous problem for me.

I do not know what might have fixed it, but it was annoying when on a bumpy bus or plane ride.

Generally the app shouldn't lose any progress though, try recent apps to reload from where you were?

Just had a thought too: it might be the default asus keyboard? I had this issue with the asus keyboard but don't remember having it with thumbkeyboard, maybe that fixed it?

Just food for thought.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
I'm using the no-name CM10.1.

What do you mean by default asus keyboard? The touch one or the original dock?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
I am using the TeamEOS 4 ROM and it does refresh the app when docking/undocking.

I think the only ROM this did NOT happen on was the Megatron ROM. Every other ROM (including Stock, ARHD and Revolver) it does refresh the app, so be sure you have saved your progress before docking/undocking.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
This sucks :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Either, and or both. I reflashed to stock recently working on PERI and it started up again, so this or the ROM is it. I'm not sure.
[Nexus 7 General] Written:
Finally got an N7 coming tomorrow, really excited, rooting and bootloader seems so simple. However, choosing my future rom and kernel isn't as easy, any inspiration welcomed and appreciated =)
[Nexus 7 General] jetfin:
Welcome!

The N7 is my first Nexus device and with my other android devices so far I've gotten used to flashing many different aosp/aosp roms to get that pure android experience i like. With the N7 on stock rom I was almost disappointed that aside from rooting it I had no great need to do anything else initially -stock vanilla android is really great for me!

After about one month with my N7 i switched to the aosp 4.2.2 codefirex SR12 and now it's perfect for me: vanilla aosp 4.2.2 with lots of optimizations making it one of the speediest tho bugfree aosp builds out there.

In any case I would reccomend that after unlocking bootloader, installing recovery and rooting you give the stock rom some time so you have a good reference point for judging other roms on the unit...

I hope you enjoy your N7 as much as I am!

btw here is the thread for the cfx aosp 4.2.2 rom:

Thanks for that. It didn't work for me at first, but after I manually edited the build.prop to list the device as “SPH-l900" instead of “SCH-l900" it worked. I also changed the ro.carrier entry from “unknown" to “Sprint" but I doubt that made a difference, other than cosmetic. It could be it was just the reboot associated with changing the build.prop, rather than the actual changes I made that really gave Wallet a kick in the pants, but either way, it seems to be working for now.

Sam's Club has the lowest price that I've seen yet for the grey/purple 32 GB TF700. It is $399 until 3/29. It's $435+ on Amazon atm. Best Buy has been selling them for $419 lately.

You can pick up in store or order online (both require membership) with free shipping.

I picked one up and it was on 9.x.x.2x, i.e. pre-9.x.x.30 where NVFlash cannot be attained. I know a lot of people have posted lately that they bought a new TF700 and it came with JB, so NVFlash is impossible. So not only is this a good deal, but it is likely that you can get one that can be setup for NVFlash.

Of course I don't guarantee that yours will be on the same exact version. But this was my experience yesterday. Happy to have NVFlash setup now!
