[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
If you want S-off, and worried about this, then just do S-off before you flash a Sense 5 ROM. Or just flash a Sense 4+ ROM later to get S-off.

There isn't any particular reason to worry about a brick when doing this (getting s-off on Sense 5), that I know of. S-off will just fail, not brick the device.

But also understand that s-off removes all security checks on the phone. Which also means that all safety checks are also bypassed. Those security checks prevent you from flashing something not intended for device, which

can

brick the phone. So you just have to be very careful about what you flash. This is simply one of the pros/cons about s-off that need to be considered when deciding whether to do it or not.

No, it stays open, in case others have similar issues or comments. This forum isn't just for you, its for everyone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] imaruhl:
Hmm...I have sense 5 and bootloader shows S-OFF so I'm clear for flashing roms right?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
If you also have custom recovery, yes.

Also be aware, if you are interested in AOSP ROMs, I think that they don't play well with hboot 2.15 (which came with the Sense 5 update). This may be fixed soon (depending on the ROM developer), or might have been already (I haven't been following this closely at all).
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] imaruhl:
(shudders with excitement)

Thanks for all your help guys. People like you keep the community spirit positive and healthy :p
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] twistedddx:
Cm 10.2 already supports 2.15. I'm sure the rest will catch up as they release updates.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Cool. Thanks for clarifying. Like I mentioned, I don't follow AOSP ROMs all too closely.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] imaruhl:
Is there any way to downgrade the hboot?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
In the time you spent asking that question you could have searched "downgrade hboot" in our forum.

I was saying correct to the idea that updating the firmware to 2.15 will fix the problems.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
What do you think? If I said it's going to fix the problems the answer seems pretty clear to me.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
My comment was specific to AOSP ROMs, not Sense based ROMs.

If you have signal drop issues, then yes the 2.15 firmware has a good possibility of fixing it.

You've already been advised of this (flashing 2.15 to fix signal drop) in another thread. So I don't know why you are asking this again.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] imaruhl:
Flashed ViperXl 4.0.1. Working successfully for 2 days now :)

Just wanted to inquire, is flashing kernels necessary? Do they really improve performance? Are they stable?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Flashing the Beastmode kernel will stop signal drops or reboots if you're getting those. There's also Elemental. They're both stable.

[Captivate Accessories] BCLaraby:
I've got an i896 (Rogers) and I'm wondering what my best, most reliable options are for getting an extended battery for this thing?

Also, my power button has full-on died (non-responsive) - is it possible for me to fix this or am I out of luck?

Thanks so much!
[Captivate Accessories] Val D.:
Check the battery in my signature. It's original Samsung 1800mAh for Epic 4G and fits Captivate with standard battery cover. I'm getting 5-6h screen on time, many hours talk time, and easily >60h standby with WIFI on. The ROM I'm using is latest stable CyanogenMod. Don't go with Chinese no-name batteries.

To clean the power button you need to disassemble the phone. There is a thread here on XDA with instructions how to do it. Some people report good results using electric contact cleaning spray and compressed air. There is no guarantee that it will start working again, though. The switch may need replacement.
[Captivate Accessories] alvin612:
Thanks for the info! Just ordered one from Amazon. It's prime eligible:)

hello just a piece of advice taking care of your battery, live themes and high resolution live wall paper / themes will also be a reason to shorten the battery life of your phone.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] paulrousseau:
There are 3 key steps in making TomTom 5 work on an i-mate JasJar with a Bluetooth GPS.

Many tips are scattered around in different Forums.

Here is a COMPLETE overview of what to do.

STEP 1 : INSTALL TOMTOM5

You do this by copying the CAB files from the CDROM (eg F:\PocketPC) to the JasJar and launch one by one from there with the explorer of the JasJar.

You can install voices the same manner by copying the CAB files to the Jasjar (eg from F:\Voice on the CDROM)

STEP 2 : UPGRADE TO V5.1

http://www.htcclub.net/storage/ppcupd510.rar

Extract and copy the files to a folder on the JasJar and install them from there.

STEP 3 : ACTIVATE THE GPS CONTROL PANEL

Fire up a registry editor (eg http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml )

Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings

Delete the DWORD marked "hide"

Add a DWORD called "Group" and give it the value of "2" (dec)

The GPS panel will now show up in your connection settings.

STEP 4 : INSTALL TOMTOM5

1. Establish a bond with your GPS and select the checkbox for serial access.

2. In BT, select the OUTGOING port to 8.

3. In the GPS control panel, select the GPS program to 0 and make sure that the hardware one, is set to None.

4. Start TT5 and the GPS settings, select another bluetooth GPS, and you will see COM 0 free. Select COM 0 and close TT5.

5. At the GPS control panel again, now select COM 8 (before we set it up at 0).

6. At BT: select OUTGOING port to 0.

7. Back again to GPS control panel and select NONE.

8. Finally start TT5 and it should connect automatically. Wait for a couple of seconds and click the GPS settings and you should see it has connected.

REMAINING PROBLEM

TomTom will only connect to the BT GPS when the Phone is switched on.

If you want to use your integrated car phone and just use the JasJar as GPS, you need to switch the Phone antenna off on the JasJar and the Bluetooth radio on (for the GPS connection). This worked perfectly before with TT3 and my i-mate PDA2K but now I am forced to activate the phone radio on the JasJar meaning that I can not use my car phone anymore !

I think it is a TT problem as I am able to connect to the GPS with other software without the phone radio switched on.

Any suggestions are welcome to solve this !

Hey i think i got something wrong in the registry :? I have:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Setings

Then in there i have: defualt value not set

and

Group 0x2 (2)

I can't see a gps pael in my connection settings.Please help!!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sl9:
I thought the same at first when I did it, no GPS panel. You have to make sure you exit the registry editor properly by Tools -> Exit, this saves the sertting. Then you need perform a soft reset of your device - after this, the GPS panel was now displayed on mine. Let us know how you get on :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jaythemagician:
cheers for that sl9. Now my only poblem is getting it working.No matter what i do all i have in other bluetooth is:

qct data interface

RIL on COM6

COM7

serial cable on COM1

Infrared port

Ir on COM3

Any ideas?cheers
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sl9:
Follow the instructions in that post exactly and you should see COM0 appear in tomtom's GPS configuration screen... Try doing a hard reset, then try again. It does work :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] stynos:
soft reset in between

I had trouble installing TT. My solution was: between every install/registry change: do a soft reset. Then do the next step and soft reset and so on...

Now it works like a charm!

Open the file \Program Files\Navigator\navigator.cfg with an editor, you will see "COM7", change it to another COM port. In my case I changed it to "COM4" and now my JASJAR can connect to the Bluetooth GPS.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jaythemagician:
can't seem to find that in the reistry....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] parw:
no, not in the registry, "navigator.cfg" is a file in the filesystem. Use windows explorer, have active sync running, then you find the file in "Mobile Device->My Windows Mobile-Based Device->\Program Files\Navigator" catalog

How can I install the folder "voices" because this folder is not a ".cab" on my TT5 sd ?

Thanks for your help.... :D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] parw:
gugi_sat:

Two things:

1. If you don't see a COM port in the cfg file. Open tomtom and select COM7 in the GPS configuration. Close tomtom, the cfg file should now have been updated with the new port setting.

2. To be sure that you don't mess with the cfg file use a hexeditor. You will find one here -> http://www.hhdsoftware.com/free-hex-editor.html#Download

I would suggest flashing a T-Mobile RUU. As a developer I've run into that problem before making ROMS. You could flash a stock kernel too. But if those work, it's time for a RUU.

and got hasoons v5 here: ww.hasoon2000.info/getdownload.php?file=Amaze/Amaze_All-In-One_Kit_v5.2.ra

Hi Everyone. I know this thread is a little old, but I also cannot get a working ics or gb rom with the xt883 radio. I have stock and maverick4.5 running on att, but when I go into the about phone on steel droid, the baseband is missing along with the imei. Swap back to stock in ss and all works fine. I have manually collaborated a couple of build.prop's (original xt883 from fastboot hack and other roms/threads) trying to find the difference between how the stockish roms activate/interact with the radio and how the gb/ics roms interact. Point is, I am on steel droid 3 5.6 and have not been able to fix this. Can someone please explain what exactly needs to be modded in the build.prop to activate and read the 883 radio. I also found a thread with modded ppp folders Also, does this propagate to all 4.x.x base roms or only for Steel Droid? I think we could all use an answer from a dev to explain this. I have spent over a week every night messing with this....PLEASE HELP :).

Greetings,

I have a question regarding ROMS and Rooting an android device. Currently, I am looking to upgrade into a new phone like the LG G2. The question that I have are the following:

- Is it easier to have compatibility for LG G2 over other devices or is it about the same?

- Is it easier to root on different phone such as a Galaxy S4 over LG G2 (or not that popular android devices)

- Custom ROM available to device like LG G2 ? Is it hard to obtain releases compatible for LG G2.

Thank You

Hello All,

If you are running a sense rom and having problems with google apps, YouTube, Maps etc with the google play service not installing. Well here is a fix for that.

How to Install?

1.) Download update.zip and place on root of SDCard

2.) Reboot into recovery

3.) flash update.zip

4.) Wipe both caches

5.) reboot

6.) update google apps, and install Play services

Hopefully this helps anyone having problems with this. I have tested this on vigor360, but i don't see what it wouldnt work on other sense roms.
[HTC Rezound] Tired of the Bull:
Thanks, this may revive some of my favorite older ROMs...
[HTC Rezound] MajikUF:
Care to describe what the update does?
[HTC Rezound] clmowers:
Yeah...its just replacing the package.xml file in the /data/system directory. The reason people are having problems is the gms or Google Play Services didn't have permission in that file or more simple put all the gms lines are missing from the file So when you went to install it. It checks the file and because the gms stuff isn't there it denies it or you get that shared id error. All this file does is add the gms lines needed for Google services nothing else is changed or modded.
[HTC Rezound] CUBENSIS:
I was having some problems with google maps, so I flashed this just to see what happens. On reboot I was greeted with a few FCing apps, and several apps that seemingly had their data wiped/reset. Some of my android settings reverted to default but not others.

Nandroid before you flash this zip.
[HTC Rezound] Tired of the Bull:
Can you give more information...what ROM are you running, what carrier, are you running any mods or scripts, anything that might give a clue as to why this change might cause your symptoms. I'm interested in reloading some of the older ROMs on a couple spare Rezounds I have (just for the hell of it really) so I'm interested in your experience but I need more information.

Are you sure you had a good download?

Any more information would be a start...
[HTC Rezound] clmowers:
Yes, like tired of bull stated can you give me some details about what your running so I can do some testing myself
