So weird. Why would you even think of posting a question here? Its very obvious just glancing at the other threads for just 2 seconds, that this forum section if for content (ROMs and other mods) and not general question.

Thread reported to mods for moving. Or more likely, moving and closing. Since as mentioned, there is already a thread about this.

Ah orange kid. Anywho, who cares? Just wait and be patience. I guess I am the only one who used to love sense, but switching to aosp is my new love.

There are themes you can use to anticipate the wait. I remember when xp first came out I still had 98. I didn't have the money to upgrade, so I used windows blinds to make it look like it. Did i just tell my age?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
I love aosp but only get 3hours screen on time :( I think it has to do with radio since the phone heats up bad when using bluetooth but no radio changes it so I'm stuck on viper for now :(

But I don't see any review or comment from developer that using this Ad Network, making me curious to find feedback from developer that already start using it.

Anyone?

[Venue Pro General] areebanjum:
I have had an unlocked Dell Venue Pro for almost 2 years and its been working fine except the usual freezing after the phone heats up while using a data connection and the terrible camera problem.

Yesterday when i was using a data connection on my DVP it heated up and froze, when i removed the battery and restarted it the phone has been working fine but it keeps giving me an error of invalid sim!!! I cant use any sim on this phone now i keep getting the invalid sim or locked sim error, all the sims are use work fine on other phones. Why am i facing this problem when i got this phone unlocked? And why after 2 friggin years restarting this phone caused it to lock the sim? This makes no sense to me at all. Obviously im out of warranty since it has been 2 years ive been using this device without any major problems. The phone seems to be working fine beside this issue, wifi networks can be connected and there are no other issues!

Can anyone please please please help me out?
[Venue Pro General] areebanjum:
hey guys

i also want to add that in the phones EN (Phone information) there is a heading Security under which it says "Unlock/ Error 200"
[Venue Pro General] kid1988:
Sorry bro.

I had the same issue, had the phone exchanged by DELL. I couldn't find any way to fix it.

Maybe try to clean and reseat your SIM card...
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krisbi:
I am interested in buying this wonderful phone and would like to ask what disadvantages would I have if I buy a phone which has been unlocked (i.e was originally locked to a UK carrier) vis-a-vis a sim-free unlocked phone from a store?

I don't like to flash roms a lot and normally only flash stock roms if official roms take too much to be available, so I was wondering if for me it would make a difference the above? Also would I have bloat ware from carriers and if yes, can I remove?

Thank you for your time.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alojzyptak:
Before you commite to buy it i feel obligated (as a very dissapointed owner) to warn you against it. First of all bear in mind the battery lasts a half day and it takes another half to get it charged. You get lucky at all if it allows you to continue using it (like making and receiving calls, receiving mails but you probably wan't be able to surf the web and most definitely you will not get online videos as it drains battery out even when the charger is plugged in). Of course you can switch off all the functions and keep the screen black/off but then why would you pay 600-700USD for a phone that with it's functionality doesn't differ from 50-100USD cheap phone. Also for such a power cost don't expect great network reception - it's just avarge. The good, old E51 is much better here. Wifi reception makes it totally useless - you have to seat next to the router to be able o use it. I have couple of devices at home, including some cheap ****ty chinease tablet and "Z" is the only one that can hardly connect and even if it does it droppes the connection. I bought 2 of them and fortunatelly didn't open the second box so i could send it back to shop. The other one i'm sending to sony as not working as advertised - very very far from their promises.

Just to mention: i use original charger, stamina on, greenify installed with just 2 apps not hibernated, network set to LTE (i tried to switch to 3G but didn't really get any better battery life).

Just think it twice mate. As always it's up to you.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
You should consider the idea that you have a faulty unit. I'm getting 4-5 hours screen on time on a charge, which is much better than what you are stating and I'm using nothing other than stamina mode in the way of battery saving apps. I will also say that I get less than 1% drain per hour in standby. The battery is far from bad IMHO.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsteppa:
Really and how many people have you seen reporting this same issue? Please just link me 1 (JUST 1 ) topic of someone reporting the same.

The same applies as above, I guess you weren't smart enough to get the idea that your unit might have been faulty? No instead you just say that the phone is bad.

Maybe you should have opened the second box, then I'm quite sure you would've gotten different results.

Why didn't you decide to open the box anyways? Since it doesn't really matter whether you opened the box or not, if it's within your warranty time (In most countries) you would just get your money back.

So instead of blaming the phone, you should blame yourself for not being thorough enough.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alojzyptak:
I've dug the internet looking for battery threads and i'm not alone. Just read few battery threads and you will see it's a common problem. Some people say it concerns only root users but you probably agree with me it's out of question. 1hr countinuous standby i get only at night. It's my primary phone (for now) and i use it - 2-3 sometimes 4 hours of phone calls a day and it's like 100 of them and when the battery drains out i still have to do it some how... I haven't mentioned before I use bluetooth headset most of time. The charging time under this circumstances is unacceptable. Like i stated previously the charging is faster at night but if you buy phone to use it not to play with it then you face the serious problem. I've read the stories of people exchanging their headsets for 4 times... When they advertise it as precision fruit of sony's job i expect it to be the best what can they offer. Well after digging and reading hundreds of post with problems like mine i don't feel like going through the multiple exchange process, setting each time the phone up, wasting my time...

Like i wrote before it's up to everybody. For sure if you spend the whole day in the city when the network covarge is nice, do not talk to much and the phone is not a tool of your work you get better, much better or even satysfying results but the other way round be warned.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krisbi:
can any one reply to my questions? :laugh:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsteppa:
As far as I have seen, the custom roms aren't that different from stock roms, in my opinion you can just use stock roms they really aren't bad.

I don't need to answer the question about bloatware... it's Android, you can do what ever you want. Just need root.

There you go.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
As for UK carrier locked phones, mine is a subsidised handset from T-Mobile UK. It runs on the generic firmware (so no bloatware or branding is present) and the bootloader is unlockable.

I can't comment on other networks handsets as I'm the only person I know with a XZ :)

Forever... or until something that sounds as good audio wise comes along.
[Nexus S General] mntbkr:
Well I have an HTC one coming tomorrow. But I'll keep it around in case of emergencies. My upgrade came at a good time as the nexus while working is feeling worn. Battery life just isn't what it use to, overall it between a gook's two years of service.

something clever goes here...

Long life to my nexus! I will change, but will keep it for case... U know... :)
[Nexus S General] Logomotph:
I plan to replace it with a nexus 4 this summer. It's been in service since autumn 2011 and I'm running out of warranty. It's a great phone and I'm going to keep it around as long as I can. Maybe try out some roms on it.

Wish mine was snappy and as usuable, it's about the same age as yours but I've had problems since my first update to ICS and after I rooted and flashed roms/kernels it's just never been the same. I have the HTC one coming in a few days so I'm pretty stoked, I'll keep my nexus s to be my Ipod touch alternative.
[Nexus S General] Nexus311:
Bought mine on launch day. Still going strong, original battery too. Though the lack of RAM is the only thing I'm having trouble with. I'll probably break down and get the upcoming Nexus.

I just bought mine a week ago and I loved it.

I chose to stick with gingerbread CM rom combines with CM kernel (patched with force AC charge and bigmem).

The experiences is great even in gaming because I only play mini game.

I maybe switch to other phone next year but I'll keep it as backup phone for sure. :D
[HTC Droid DNA] ScienceofSpock:
Howdy yall,

I have a rooted/unlocked DNA, and for the last month or so, I have been getting OTA notifications for HTC6435LVW_2.04.605.2-1.15.605.4. At first, they would come in every few days, i would just hit the back button and go on about my business. Lately, they have been coming in every damn time I unlock the screen, and it's annoying. I don't have the reject option on the regular popup, only Defer and OK. Is there any way I can just prevent these completely? Is everyone who has a rooted DNA getting these?

Thanks,

SoS
[HTC Droid DNA] Jrocker23:
1) If your on the stock rom, NO unless you just download the rooted version and install, remember to back up your apps and files,pics,music whatever. The install will wipe your phone to like new but shouldn't delete anything on the memory card but just in case something goes wrong, back up everything.

2) install a custom rom (backup your stuff) then install the rom. most custom roms have a block so you are not notified.
[HTC Droid DNA] dabomb697:
Or you could install the stock recovery and just take the OTA. Then just put your custom recovery back when it's done. That's what I did.
[HTC Droid DNA] ScienceofSpock:
I am on the stock ROM, I used Hasoon2000's All-In-One to unlock it, flash TWRP and root it.

Do you have any suggestions for a custom ROM? I'm not opposed to that suggestion, but I haven't used a custom ROM since my OG Droid.

Wouldn't doing that remove root?
[HTC Droid DNA] dabomb697:
Yes but just flash your supersu.zip after you put your custom recovery back and you'll have root again.
[HTC Droid DNA] ScienceofSpock:
Ok, from my reading, I was under the impression that the update would basically re-lock the phone and that it couldn't be rooted after that. If that's not the case, good.

Thanks,

SoS
[HTC Droid DNA] monkboy24:
Never accept ota updates if your rooted and unlocked! It defeats the purpose.

Our developers are our source to updates.

sent from my DNA running sense 5 NOS and BEASTMODE v5.6
[HTC Droid DNA] dabomb697:
The OTA will not relock your phone. The only thing it will do is unroot. All you have to do is flash your supersu again to get root back.

[LG Nitro HD] lorax1284:
I have rooted my Telus LG Optimus LTE (P935) successfully.

It is just the CyanogenMod 10.1 recovery image that isn't working for me.

I get the

---------------
Secure booting Error!
Cause : boot certification verify

-------------------------
------------------------------
Enter the fastboot...
Enter the fastboot...

Long time no see!
-------------------------------------------------

message when I boot to recovery.

Is there a simple fix for this i.e. use an different Cyanogen Mod, or my phone isn't really rooted at all and I think it is, or...?

The phone boots into the Telus ICS just fine, works ok and all, but if I want the thing to be upgradeable over time, I think I don't want to just rely on Telus to keep it up to date, do I?
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
You have to unbrick; final answer. No other way around it. Just pick one of the numerous guides here in the general section and follow it.
[LG Nitro HD] lorax1284:
Unbrick? But it's not bricked...

Thanks for that, but I just want to confirm that even though I have superuser installed and working, and ClockWorkMod is installed and working, and when I boot the device normally it loads up into Ice Cream Sandwich just fine, and everything works great, I STILL have to follow a full "Unbrick" procedure just to get a "proper" recovery.img onto the device?

I'm not afraid of ADB / command line, but if you say "do the unbrick", well, OK, but could you recommend a SPECIFIC guide? The one I used to get where I am is this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1554255

as recommended in this post:

Root Telus P935? post #13

So could you advise if I should retry that method or if I should try a different method, which one might be most likely to leave me with a LG Optimus LTE with a more-current version of Android than 4.0.4, AND leave the device with the ability to update to subsequent Android releases (either stock or Cyanogen?)

I am just trying to avoid a lot of fruitless trial and error if there's a known "best way" to do what I'm trying to do.
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
I haven't asked and I am only assuming that you are on an official version of ICS, right? If that is the case, it is fully possible to have root privs yet fail to flash a working recovery.

The thing is; if you are trying for a custom recovery, such as TWRP or CWM, then most assuredly you must unbrick. On the official ICS releases, having root privs means nothing as far as flashing a custom recovery is concerned.

Flashing a custom recovery+ROM will not hinder your ability to update either your custom ROM or upgrade to any (unlikely) future LG update.

As for which method is best, I personally say that ANY of them work as I have tried each one listed on this board and have encountered not one single problem. My personal recommendation is Hereric's guide, but in general, they all do just about the same thing. Other members do not share my "luck" as problems have been experienced with each method. The most important thing is to read through the guide a few times before starting it. One thing I will recommend is that since you have a P935, whichever method you choose, make sure you use a P93x .kdz instead of the Korean SU640 .kdz. I mean, it will work with either one, but there are a few minor gremlins that can pop up if you use the SU640 .kdz to unbrick.
[LG Nitro HD] lorax1284:
Yes, the official Telus ICS. It was installed using the Windows LG upgrade tool.

That is what I was looking for confirmation of... I will unbrick.

Thanks very much for this detailed response... I'll get to it this evening and post back when I've done it.
[LG Nitro HD] lorax1284:
Cyanogenmod 10.1 now stuck at boot screen

I have got Cyanogen 10.1 installed, now it's stuck on the cyan (I just got that!) boot logo (the circle with the hexagon screen with the moving spokes) and left it in that state far longer than should have been necessary for first boot... should I not have used 10.1?
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
Shouldn't matter which ROM you install. I'd wipe everything and try it again; or try a different ROM. You should be good to go once you've unbricked.
[LG Nitro HD] KronicSkillz:
first boot with cm 10.1 will take about 10 minutes if i remember right, its probly not stuck on logo, just wait and let it install., if u leave it on logo for 30 min and its not booted redownload/flash it again.
[LG Nitro HD] lorax1284:
Thanks; managed to get it installed

I had to flash / boot a few times... another tip is that in order for the "boot to recovery" to work, you first have to do a full wipe: once I realized that I was able to get various cyanogenmod firmwares onto the device and if I had problems, had to do a wipe then I could use the recovery firmware to try another.

2. Installing additional packages

These packages should be installed if you’re following the entire guide for setting up a wireless private mobile cloud server. At this point the author is still debugging error messages with some of the services/packages that are being trialled for this making this project a reality and the author is still working on educating himself on dependencies/configurations; so use section 2 and section 3 use at your own risk.

2:1 installing packages before devstack or openstack

First we'll need some git for our flavor of debian

#apt-get install git-arch

Devstack.org

directs to use the following comand to get a clone of devstack onto your device

#git clone https://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack.git

Then to deploy and install use

#cd devstack && ./stack.sh

Debian has got some errors so I'll have to figure out where to go from here. Resources that I'm using:

devstack.org

compatible with ubuntu 12.04 form of debian kit posibly, still working out kinky install errors with ubuntu on myTouch 3g.

openstack.org

states that its compatible with debain and ubuntu forms of debain kit posibly, still reading and obsorbing information. Could run into processor, memory, and storage constraints if the guides are to be believed, don't care round hole meet square pag.

stackgeek.com/guides/gettingstarted.html

ran accross it, might have something...

Google.com

yep google gets it done with well constructed quaries. Use the 'solved' 'distro' with 'issue' and refine from there, adding 'similar:(web address) or (something)' or 'site:(web address specifically)'

Contents

​

3. Setting up cloud system

This is under construction...

Note: looks like you'll need access to a total of three devices for this; be it three rooted android phones or a combo of computers and rooted devices all of which seem to at this point need to be running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

I'm now looking into installing the componits that are required to run openstack on Ubuntu to other distrobutions such as Squeeze by downloading the sorce .deb or .sh files and installing from sorce. This is because after reading though the bootdeb (wich you can find after unpacking the debian kit under the file path: /data/local/deb/bootdeb) by opening as a text file with rom toolbox; there seems to be a way of shifting the way that super user requests are handeled by the android system that alow for devices (such as the myTouch 3g) with system read/write protection enabled (sOff/sOn) to handle read/write permitions diferently. This has adverse side effects so avoiding it and using a stable reliece of debian squeeze is the sogested method at this point and fixing the depindencies manuely.

Love your guide worked out well for me. I uninstalled and reinstalled like 30 times to memorize the prosses incase somthing happend so I can fix it. I was just wondering if you going to get more distros working using this method. Linux Mint is at the top of my list and of course Fedora, Open Suse, Arch, LMDE, Gentoo, Slax(or Salix), FreeBsd. I know all dont have arm ports yet but I know Fedora does, and Linux mint is a modified version of ubntu. Lastly I realy hate LMDE desktop enviroment is there a method to get other desktop enviroments and remove the one installed at the same time to prevent conflicts. I know I am asking alot I am just throwing ideas out there that Im sure other people who read you guide would be asking.
