Thank's for your tools. It seems that will be near a solution but it's not unlock, because ;

First : TREFFS_DOC is now profile for Storage

Second : ExtRom is Profile VDIS and use VDISK.DLL and not TRUEFFS.DLL that does not exist

Third : Allocation memory is different than other version of QTEK.

And finaly, NOT USE THIS TOOLS THAT LOCKED My STORAGE, I'm HAPPY. I TRIED HARD RESET WITHOUT RESULT

Does anyone know how to avoid country error code on the alpine when upgrading or switching roms? Does one follow the same procedure as that for the himalaya, or can I use the upgrade utility (with no id) that I used for the himalaya?

Actually, there ARE tools to unlock XDA IIi, there are few doing unlock for XDA IIi on eBay, and this website: http://www.mobile2mobile.net/unlock/RemoteunlockingHTCPocketPC_Instructions.htm also handles it. Its just that this kind of tools will not be easily released to us from the underground, other wise, who will they gain profit from?

Guess we have to either wait or pay if you are really in a hurry :)

Very interresting, but it's not a subject.

A specail forum about unlock already exist and don't confusion betwen unlock (SIM provider) and Unlock Extended ROM. Is this last subject for we ask help to develloper

[Oppo Find 5] stevew84:
For some reason I haven't seen anything on youtube comparing the performance of this, to the S4, not really concerned with it's performance to the HTC One.

I know this CPU is a little out dated, well at least not as current as the S4, but haven't seen any side by side comparison, only specs on paper.

Anyone actually use them both? I'm leaning towards the Oppo mainly because it's a little different, plus there is a lot of dev on the stock and CM side.

Oh, I know there is no LTE, which is fine, but it does have the HSPA+ bands for ATT/TMO, right? Same as what the Nexus 4 has?
[Oppo Find 5] DarK_MischieF:
The Oppo Find 5 has a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro (APQ8064)- this is the same SoC as many other phones such as the Droid DNA, PadFone 2, Optimus G, Nexus 4, Xperia Z, and so on.

The S IV (intentionally avoiding the S4 term to avoid confusion) and the HTC One run on a Snapdragon 600 (8064T)- there are sizable differences in benchmarks (check some out at Anandtech), but there is confusion on why the scores seem so far apart. Check out this XDA thread to see some discussion on this.

The general consensus is that the S4 Pro is still very capable, and in general use you shouldn't notice a change.

As for the bands, I will again defer to Anandtech, here is the exact quote from their Oppo Find 5 review:
[Oppo Find 5] stevew84:
As of now, I have the Galaxy s2 from TMO, I purchased a Nexus 4 which I wasn't too fond of, basically due to the hardware and the fact I almost dropped it due to it's slipperiness. So I'm back to the s2, the nexus 4 was such a huge jump over what I'm currently using, so I'm sure the Oppo 5 will be even more beyond my phone.

I wasn't too fond of the HTC One when I was messing with it in person, I don't like the dull aluminum color, and the faux brushed metal feel to the device. If the black one was readily available for TMO or ATT unlocked, I'd probably be thinking different. Not a fan of Samsung too much anymore until they beef up their phones just a tad.

If i don't even use the S IV or HTC One on a daily basis, I doubt I'd notice the performance difference between those and the Oppo 5.
[Oppo Find 5] AwesomeTurtle:
I'd say there's a bit of a cap there, too; only under strenuous circumstances will you notice a difference in processing speed. The UI on the Find 5 will run at a fluid 60fps, much like HTC's and Samsung's flagships, and everything will probably open in an instant (if not slower by few milliseconds, but who's that petty).
[Oppo Find 5] typos1:
The Find 5 has been upgraded, it now has the Snapdragon 600/8064T as well.

[LG Optimus Black] UncleSamPT:
Hi guys.

A friend gave me this phone and he said that the phone had some problems, namely it wouldn't recognize any kind of sd-card (external). I have updated the phone to ICS and tried to take some photos. What happens here is that the camera doesn't tshow any image, just shows the menus, options etc and says that there is no sd-card inserted.

My question is, the fact that it doesn't show any image through the camera means it's broken or is it because there is no sd-card inserted? I'm thinking of buying a sim card and sd-card slot and assemble it so I can use an sd-card. Replace the old one because it doesn't work.

Also the gallery doesn't open because there's no sd-card. Is this normal?

I'm asking this because I have a galaxy s3 and it works with or without the sd-card, so I'm confused.

Thanks in advance.
[LG Optimus Black] rajeshmk2012:
Don't compare S3 with OB...S3 has user accessible internal memory and OB does not...u will need sdcard for OB
[LG Optimus Black] UncleSamPT:
But does the camera works without the sd-card or not? That's my worries because I need to know if I need to buy a new camera for it to perform well.
[LG Optimus Black] ykumar00:
The OB camera doesn't work without sd card.
[LG Optimus Black] UncleSamPT:
Thank you. I only have to buy the sd-card tray then.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jdizzle316:
I've read the forum and couldn't find one that applied to me.

Here's the background:

I'm rooted and tried to install TWRP but what happend was when i booted into recovery from GOOMANAGER, it took me to stock recovery and now I'm stuck!

I'm used to samsung and htc phones (being able to bring them back to life after soft-bricks) but this is my first LG phone and don't know what to do!

Please help or point me in the right direction. Much appreciated, thank you in advance

[Galaxy S 4 General] kingzain900:
I am still trying to figure out the logic of wanting the stock AOSP for the S4 from Samsung.

How will this be any different from running any other AOSP rom? I mean, if you check out PA GamerZ ROM, that works quite well as a daily driver. Why would we want to use this stock AOSP (with features that are quite basic)? Just to get 4.3 when it comes out? So? Some dev will port that anyways.

I mean, if someone bought the S4, wasn't it for the features? If anyone wanted stock AOSP then why not Nexus 4? Ok if hardware is the question, then really waiting for the next Nexus isn't that hard.

So can someone explain to me why?
[Galaxy S 4 General] kamp:
For someone like me, it's not about running the stock AOSP on S4. It's about how it can improve the AOSP based custom roms like CM, PA, etc.

Hopefully, Samsung/Google will release proper source codes as quickly as for Nexus devices so that custom roms can run better on S4.

I've been using GS3 (i9305), mainly with CM for the last 10 months or so. It works ok as a daily driver, but not as well as it could've been, mainly because not all the necessary sources are available/released.

I tried Nexus 4 for about a couple of weeks and running CM was definately more fluid/enjoyable than on GS3.

But I couldn't really get used to not having the physical home button and lack of storage space. If GS4 Google Edition is released with exact same hardward as normal i9505, then this will be almost perfect - custom roms running as well as on Nexus devices with physical home button and MicroSD slot.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gillion:
In simple terms.

Google gets to have its vanilla version of Android on a flagship device without having to subsidize the cost of designing the hardware.

Unlike Nexus devices where Google invests R&D money to make the hardware... having Samsung and HTC put a version of Stock Android on the device pretty much absolves Google of any financial liability in relation to hardware development.

Nexus devices are traditionally spartan... and Google likes it that way... but what if mobile manufacturers want to have nexus compatible device with all the bells and whistles... they will all compete on who has the most Nexus compatible device.

This will attract developers and customers that prefer the stock Google experience

Bear in mind also Google is still developing their Motorola flagship device... this has handset makers very jittery.

Having a GE also puts the latest Android on a device and puts pressure on the makers of the device to move build it out into their MAIN version of Android.

So Key lime pie or 4.3 should come quicker on the HTC and S4 than would be tradtional.

Another issues is transparency.

For too long handset makers have said "our phone can't run the latest version of Android" when we know they lie.

Samsung has been good.. the S2 has JB while the HTC Sensation 4G has all but been dumped by their makers.

Companies that have a Google edition will have that extra edge in longevity.
[Galaxy S 4 General] kingzain900:
Very good answer. Makes sense. It'd be exciting to see what Motorola device Google releases. MoNex (MoNey?).

[Galaxy S 4 General] broodplank1337:
Anyone got the sources already? download is pretty slow and size is unknown, I guess around 350mb as i9505 sources. But I hope so badly its not another normal package with some lame modules to build, just the whole system. But I guess not, the time will learn us...

Thanks for sharing guys but these sources are just like all other samsung sources... a kernel and just a few modules to build (which they call platform)... no source for the i9505g at all... They always give that exact platform.. its useless :(

Think we have to wait for google to release it then. anyways, I believe the merge will be done today or tomorrow right?

[Galaxy S 4 General] ashwinmudigonda:
I agonized over the S4 and the One before picking the S4. My argument was that given that S4 will have AOSP support, it is highly likely that I can resume running stock Android some time soon (I was thrown into a pool and lost my old G2 on which I had been running stock 4.2 for months).

But what made pick S4 was its hardware. No, not the processor or the screen or camera, but the additional sensors (pressure, hygroscopic, gesture, hover, etc). I feel that these additional sensors can make using the phone a slightly interesting experience. For example, I already dig the fact that (somehow) Flipboard knows when I am over a tile, and it'll bring up content. If Samsung releases the API for these sensors, then we can see some amazing ROMs being developed for this phone.

Of course, I am concerned about the quality of the pictures/videos when running other ROMs. If the drivers are not compatible, the experience might not be that great. Still, if my old G2 is any indicator, there will be tons of support for a couple of years at least.
