No S-Off, it does underclock the cpu (and that is a normal root command, does not need S-Off) and that means that they modified android somehow so that app has elevated privileges (root power) and so it can set the cpu clock (but that is just how I understand it and actually now that I think of it we most surely can't get S-Off using that, but maybe we could somehow root the phone without unlocking the bootloader, and perhaps if we manage that later we could also manage to gain S-Off, need other opinions now....)

I have access to a couple of SGH-I337 phones. One of them runs MDB ROM and it is unlocked. Can I install a custom recovery and make a backup of the phone?

Then can I try to restore on another phone running MF3? I know it may be very hard to put on a custom recovery. And I do not know if this works AFTER I put on a custom recovery.

Also, if I do put on a custom ROM over the MF3 phone, can I re-flash it back to MDB ROM?

Just some silly questions.... Thx.

Go to these links. First you are going to have to go under storage and at the menu at the top right of the screen touch the menu to open USB settings and set it to MTP. Go to this link It will tell you all the rest. It has worked for me. But I warn you use the restart tab to reboot device first to make sure the usb drivers are installed correctly and that adb actually runs. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2450480

[HTC One X] obscurant1st:
Hello,

After last one 4.2.2 update my phone was stuck at the HTC One Beats audio logo.

Then I tried restoring nandroid backup(with CID HTC__038)(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1975140) and then flashing boot.img. But this left me with no touch support.

So I tried a rom from here(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2107669) but then my phone stuck at HTC Quietly brilliant logo even after flashing boot.img.

Now when I tried to restore the nandroid back from the first link, the phone worked and the touch was working again. But this time, the phone doesn't show any carrier networks. flashing with the boot.mg from this nandroid stopped the phone's touch from working, but then the carrier network came back.

So what do I do next?

My HBOOT version is 1.73.0000

Try this :

Flash this recovery

Rename the file to recovery.img and flash it

Then flash the boot.img from the sd rom.zip

Fastboot flash boot boot.img

Then enter the recovery and do :

Factory reset

Wipe cache partition

does anybody know why this maybe

changed the camera, icons I nthe app itself, so instead of having the camera options on the right hand side it was a round thing then you turned for the options

If you have root, you can force uninstall Google from your system if it's a system app and reinstall from Google Play. If you're using Lucky Patcher, check that all unused odex files are removed as these unused files can also cause this error with Google Play.

hi, download directory of play store is /cache/download/

check if /cache is full

aosp/cm based roms uses /cache for dalvik,odex files( i don't know which :D )

you might want to bind process of download directory of play store using CacheDownload2SD.

It won't affect if you mount/unmount SD Card unlike what SD swap does.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] HelloDominick:
Im able to get into twrp recovery, and fastboot mode but not download mode... I wanted to put the phone back into stock and i thought wiping out everything would do so but i guess not.

Whenever i press the download mode command which i did was volume up down and power then plug into the laptop the 3 buttons will flash but my laptop won recognized it. I tried installing the LG Optimus G drivers but still unable to install it. Also TWRP says that the phone isnt rooted anymore and has no OS.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SlimMan:
First off it's Vol Up + Vol Down while powered off and then plug into computer. DO NOT press the power button.

Secondly what ver. of windows and did the computer have any issues prior with connecting to the phone?

There is another fix but it's a bit drastic and wouldn't recommend it at this point.

oh well that might be the reason why. il try it out..im using windows 7 and it was working before i wiped everything.

On my phone, Download Mode is only accessed when Vol + and - and power from a powered off state, while any USB cord is plugged in, either to a PC, or a wall charger.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] nandroide:
After flashing, i noticed that the phone has some issues powering on and off normally i.e. phone completely died, plug the phone into the charger, screen turns on, phone is theoretically charging, but does not show any charging display icon. Which then forces me to unplug the phone, press and hold the power button for 10 seconds, press and hold the power again to turn the phone on, and immediately plug it into the charger in order to get the phone to normally boot up. I flashed CM 10.2 from the original android dev thread. I think that was just a design flaw that LG had originally, but meh, what can i say.

Hey,

Just got my HTC One X (the AT&T american version) a couple of weeks ago and I'm having some problems with the screen, the same as the youtube video "HTC One X screen artifacts" (sorry, the forum doesnt allow me to post the link)

I read somewhere that the only way to fix it is getting a new one, or updating my phone firmware to 1.29 or above.

I'm trying to update it, but I'm still having those strange artifacts on my screen.

Does anyone know how to do it manually? Without using the phone screen, only the computer.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] pmacevad:
For some reason my phone will not boot into recovery. I have tried booting into recovery from the system and via adb. Takes me straight to bootloader. Strange thing is when in bootloader/fastboot mode my computer will not recognize my device in adb when connected, but when I am booted into the system the phone is recognized in adb. I think I have to reflash my recovery (twrp v2.6.3) but originally I flashed it with goo manager, which seems to be down atm. My question is how do I get my device recognized while in bootloader/fastboot again so I can manually flash twrp, and what were the commands to properly flash the recovery via bootloader/fastboot. I did do a search but did not find specific results that answer my questions. I know I've read about this happening but I cannot remember where. Tia.

Edit: FIXED!!!Needed fastboot in same directory where adb exe was located. Commands were able to be run to flash recovery from fastboot.

Seems like T-Mobile have brought out their second maintanance release, supposedly including blackberry (jumps up and down, then realises blackberry is overhyped and overpriced).

Downloading it now from

http://t-mobile.iris-global.com/download_manager_mda_com.html

From the filename it appears the radio stack is still at 1.12, but I'll check once it's on.

Apologies if this is old news but I couldn't find any reference to it so far.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] herman3101:
Technology hates me

Computer decided to reboot during ROM flash, feck knows why. Luckily it seems the TMO upgrade utility can restart its flashing procedure even though connection was lost.

Don't mind computer problems if they got some kind of sense to them, but randomly just restarting for the first time since I built it during the most ackward time just proves to me that computers are both evil and have a since of twisted irony.

Any improvement in this release?

I have been using the May update (BigStorage applied) since July fairly successfully.

I don't want to go through this if it's not worth it, so would appreciate advice from anyone who has applied it first.

Thanks
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] herman3101:
Well it's now got Blackberry support, whoopty f***in do. Also the radio version is still 1.12 so that has to be updated seperatly. In the 15min its been alive I havn't noticed any major changes but never really expected to.

Will post if I experience any problems or notice anything lifechangingly amazing about this new ROM. Would be nice if people using this ROM could do the same.

BTW anybody got a list of the ExtROM files and their comparitve uselessness? I went through the 1.12 ROM with a CAB manager but really can't be arsed this time round. Probably just install the whole lot through shear laziness. On second thoughts the BB client takes up 1.3Mb, so like f**k am i letting that onto my baby.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
Hi Herman,

Why not go for BigStorage as you're not using the ext-rom. In the upgrade to radio 1.13 you can find how to do it from the shipped rom & on the ftp there's a bs 1.13 rom present, based on the Dutch TMO version so WWE, but use your own ext-rom files for specific UK settings.

Cheers, M
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] herman3101:
Cheers

Sorry, didn't really put it right. Already had the 1.13 radio downloaded and just installed it after, was no worries there. As for the BigStorage ROM, I've never particularly liked the idea, especially after reading problems people have had reverting back to the old storage configuration. I'm quite happy with my 512Mb SD card, wouldn't really use the extra space in storage anyway.

Cheers for your thoughts though mate

Ps had the new ROM up and running for few hours now, not noticed any glaring issues apart from that damn lack of BT serial ports issue but thats the radio not the OS ROM.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] herman3101:
BigStorage

Finally gave in and overcame my fears. Applied the BigStorage hack to the latest TMO ROM as I read on here that it's reversible. Well seemed to have gone smoothly, although the increased hard reset time at the begining nearly made my heart stop.

If anyone wants I can upload the latest TMO official ship (1.13) with BigStorage hack, which doesn't need the SD card flashing method. Can do straight over USB.

Just post a msg if you want me to upload.

Re: BigStorage

Hi parklife,

Still strugling to get it done? I gues herman3101 will upload a modified nk.nbf. Hope you succeed with it. At least I did with a patched nk.nbf. Can't upload myself for a few days as I'm not in the neighborhood of my PC. It's just me & my magician and I'm not complaining.

Cheers, M
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] herman3101:
Uploading now

Well I'm uploading the ROM up to the ftp now. I've included the updated nk.nbf as well as all the files needed to do a USB install. The files were small enough for me to think well why not. Once that's been uploaded I'll check the download section and find a link for you all.

Further to the guy who couldn't update his ROM, being kinda vague there buddy but I'll see what I can do. If you would be so kind as to follow these instructions pretty much to the letter then we should be OK:

- Hard Reset your MDA (press power button at same time as reset)

- After the selecting your time zone do a soft reset to avoid the customization process

- Plug your fresh MDA into your USB and wait for ActiveSync to bring up the connection wizard, select Guest partnership

- With your MDA still plugged in but in Guest mode just double click on the file you downloaded of T-Mobile and follow the onscreen instructions.

If you still have problems after following those steps then don't hesitate to reply but please be more specific so we don't have to guess what your issue is.

Will post a message when the BS ROM is up on the ftp

PS Well with the BigStorage ROM it obviously doesn't matter which ExtROM, but I would always go for the one from your provider so if you are with T-Mobile UK then go for their ExtROM because your guarenteed compatibility
