Hello,

I've just flashed my O2 mini with the Jam 1.06 update.

(JAM_WWE_106_110_10500.exe)

I did the "3 sec" soft reset trick which I'm able to see the Ext-rom.

but would it be possible to change (write permission) the file in the Ext-rom ?

or

How could I flash only my O2 olf ext-roms files.. ?

Thanks.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] jackleung:
U could not write to ExtRom since it's read only.

But U could use a patched Rom (search the forum for it) to get rid of the Extrom and get a 26mb "Storage" instead of 7mb. (make copy of yr extRom software in case U need it before U do it)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] slvrbllt:
Where ?

Hi,

Where is the patched ROM, please... could not find on forum/ftp.

Thanks a lot.

[Android Apps and Games] PhilPrado:
I started playing this game and got hooked immediately. The gameplay is very similar to that of Touhou games (I was a huge fan of Imperishable nights) myself. I didn’t know of any real good cave or Touhou ports to android, and I’m pretty happy with this one. I’m also a fan of the Cave games and this game was quite similar but slightly different (not as many enemies, slower and more complicated bullet patterns, harder to destroy enemies). The slow-mode in this game is a little interesting. You can use slow mode as long as you want but it affects your score (not sure but you get a bonus if you don’t use it or something like that).

Pros:

-Lots of levels

-Quite impressive bullet patterns

-Controls are excellent

-Great frames per second (I’m on Galaxy S2 which is quite outdated now)

Cons:

-Music is repetitive

-Only 1 character (well it’s a story about her so I guess that can’t be helped).

-Full version isn’t free. It’s $1.99 now (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.yumeapps.danmaku)

I ended up buying the game because it’s nothing compared to the $60 I spent for Dodonpachi. Definitely worth $2 but it doesn’t have as much content as my favorite Touhou games (PCB or Imperishable nights), but what can you expect from an Android game?

Overall I recommend downloading the free game for sure and see how you like it for yourself.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] LaizureBoy:
Hello, I rooted my captivate glide a couple of days ago. Afterwards, everything worked fine.

Then, today, while viewing some emails on my phone, I realized that if I tried to copy a URL from gmail, it would COMPLETELY freeze my phone.

It also has some random freezes every now and again, and I have to reset the phone to get it to work again.

Anyone got a clue?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] maddbomber83:
What all did you do after rooting? Normally you don't root and the do nothing else. It is likely what that else is, is the problem.

Does restoring to the backup you made after doing the recovery flash fix the problem?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] LaizureBoy:
Nandroid and such failed.

You see... I don't have a large enough external sd card, not do I have a large enough internal one. It's mostly full.

I looked into maybe backing up through a USB into my pc, but that was a failure...

I have no backups, other than EFS. All I did was install some .jpg and audio tweaks, and then I installed One Power Guard.

I tried flashing some things, such as an xLoud port, and a beats audio port, but neither worked: I got the error status 0 each time.

I used CWM. I also have it in power save mode most of the time in OPG... Should I maybe increase the clock speed a bit?

Maybe it is hanging, because of the lesser responsiveness?

Does anyone know if it would be possible to swap the actions of the home button on a GE rom? I use multitasking far more than google now and I find the double tap for multitasking annoying to use, I'd rather have it like it is in TW roms, long press = multitasking, double tap = google now (s voice on tw rom)

*NOTE: USING MY GRAPHICS FOR PROFIT IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED*

So, got bored and decided to mess around in PhotoShop again. One thing led to another and 4 hours later I came up with this stuff and decided to give it to my awesome XDA devs and app designers.

If you just so happen to not be skilled at PhotoShop, but want nice logos, presenters, and general FX for your development stuff, then here you go.

In the attached ZIP file are 4 separate PSD files... 1 for the Android Guy, 1 for the GS4 blank, 1 for the generic phone blank, and then a final one I did for fun which you can modify as you like. The PSD's are neat and organized for you and I've included all fonts and brushes I used.

The final PSD combines all the stuff together to make this unique "thing" that I made lol... Hope you guys enjoy or find it useful.

2 ZIP files... One is PSD files, fonts and media, the other are the brushes if you want them.

P.S. - There are individual layers for EVERYTHING in the above image. So even if you have no idea how to use PhotoShop, you can simply drag and drop most stuff, edit the text as needed, change the colors, etc. Enjoy, and good luck with your work!

It is kind of weird thing I am trying to do but I am sure it is not impossible. Just looking for ways if anybody has already tried before might save my time and afforts.

At work I've PC with internet but without bluetooth, and a Galaxy S3 without data plan! I want to play music (online music streaming sites) on my PC, have that music (from audio out jack on PC) to Galaxy S3 (hope it will go to mic in if I use male to male aux cable?) and then an App that sends that incoming music stream to bluetooth audio output of GS3 and then listen to it on my sony stereo bluetooth headset!

Sounds odd right? :) The thing is I can not buy & plug in bluetooth dongle to my work PC and I can not afford the data plan as of now.

So looking forward to all ideas!

I've searched regarding these two Canadian Operators and found nothing. I've already processed and entered my SIM unlock code successfully, yet with my Wind Mobile SIM card inserted I currently see "No signal Limited Service" on the lock screen and cannot make any voice calls, send SMS nor data.

It seems I'm not the only one confused and too many on craigslist/kijiji making statements in ads that their bnib or used HTC One's from Telus Mobility or Bell Mobility (their networks co-mingled and exist across Canada; Telus owns networks in West, Bell in the East) claiming to work on Wind Mobility.

Wind Mobility uses the following networks: The WIND Mobile network uses a frequency called AWS, with bands 1700/2100.

Wind themselves do NOT support/have an LTE network as of yet.

HTC One Official Specifications:

3G - UMTS/ HSPA:

Canada/ Latin America: 850/

1900

/2100 MHz up to HSDPA 42 Mbps

T-Mobile (US): 850/ AWS/

1900

/2100 MHz with HSDPA up to 42 Mbps

^ Am I mis-understanding that a) AWS = 1700Mhz being equal in the "Canada/Latin America" and that b) 2100Mhz is AWS? Prior to these smaller entrants, 2100Mhz was only used by Rogers Wireless, but I figure 2100Mhz is AWS??

Basically I'm praying that my Bell Mobility HTC One can be somehow (and easily) flashed to support the "1700Mhz AWS and 2100Mhz AWS" network bands that I require to use my phone line on Wind Mobile. Is this possible?

[Hardware Hacking General] Kico. St:
hello everyone

if you have a dead MicroSD that your pc doesnt recongizes it the SD Association has made a software to fix it...

You just download and install SD Formatter on your Windows/Mac pc ,

the software will detect automatically what kind of SD card is and will give you the options of how to format the card...after the process is complete and your sd card is working again hit thanks :D

The SD Formatter was created specifically for memory cards using the SD/SDHC/SDXC standards. It is strongly recommended to use the SD Formatter instead of formatting utilities provided with operating systems that format various types of storage media. Using generic formatting utilities may result in less than optimal performance for your memory cards.

The SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards have a "Protected Area" on the card for the SD standard's security function. The SD Formatter does not format the "Protected Area".

Dowload

For Windows : https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/eula_windows/SDFormatter4exe.zip

For Mac : https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/eula_mac/SDFormatter_4.00B.pkg

Looks like you're SOL if you're running Linux.. that's a shame.

[Hardware Hacking General] 3ndymion:
I don't think there is a "proper" way to do it for us, other than something like fdisk. There's also Gparted or kde-partionmanager to make formatting & partitioning easier. They'd properly still hit the "protected area" though. Is this "protected area" they mention in the first 512 bytes???

Hi,

After searching other topics similar to this I find the need to post. Please help

Just purchased a gs2 sgh-i777. Had gingerbread 2.3.4? Downloaded kies and updated to jellybean. Immediately after update reboot the battery was at critical and no usb connectivity what so ever. So dead phone no way of charging. I am returning the phone for exchange. I want the newest firmware so my question is this. How to I update prevent this from happening again. Root, backup then update firmware?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
The Kies update would not normally cause that problem. It may have been a problem with the hardware, such as a bad usb port.

But, what ever the reason, if you are comfortable customizing your phone then flashing the firmware yourself would be the better choice. And, the custom firmware available in the development section performs better than stock also. There is plenty of information available on how to do things. If you are new to this, just be sure you understand what you are doing before acting, so as to avoid problems.

Hi Guys,

I'm having some serious issues with the HTC One.

It is stuck on the OTA Update on about one third progress. Doesn't respond to anything right now.

My Device was rooted and the bootloader was unlocked. I also had flashed a Custom Recovery (TWRP).

Today I received an OTA notification for the new 2.24 Version. I downloaded it, but obviously I couldn't update because of the TWRP recovery. So I gathered the information of my device with fastboot, because I needed to flash the correct RUU:

(bootloader) partition-layout: Generic

(bootloader) security: on

(bootloader) build-mode: SHIP

(bootloader) boot-mode: FASTBOOT

getvar:all FAILED (status malformed (0 bytes))

finished. total time: 5.557s

The 1.29.161.16 Version was nowhere available so I downloaded the OTA_M7_UL_JB_50_Vodafone_UK_1.29.161.11-1.28.161.7_release_315813_signedoj2qp335qmm8qjso.z ip from this Thread.

After flashing the RUU and booting up the phone again, everything seems to be alright. It showed me the OTA notification again, ready for installing. I then started the Update and it has been stuck for about one hour since then. I can't reboot the device. Nothing of the button combination seems to be working. The progress bar is about one third completed.

Has the update probably failed because I downloaded the OTA before flashing the RUU?

Can anyone please help? Am really freaked out right now and I hope the device is still usable :(

A thousand thanks!

Cheers,

Martin
