Looks like im off to the wire trick as ive already tried all of the above - from the fastboot s-on flash method of boot image to changing recoveries

As for the wire trick I read one needs the original rom for the phone for it to work - which i will need to dig up

But yeah seems as if i covered everything else - ill go to the unlimited.io site and read up some more but thanks for the suggestions.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] demkantor:
You can use miktouch or any stock based ROM instead, don't need official stock
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] steve_77:
Update:

I tried Juopunutbear and no dice.. the tool was smart enough to see that i already had S-OFF. So im trying to decide how i can go back to stock RUU and S-on and rerun my device through thier tool.

I was originally S-OFF via revolutionary, i might try contacting them to see if they have any thoughts. But the good people at unlimited.io think that the reason i might not be able to flash anyting above gingerbread might be due to a Hboot version mismatch thats incompatible with the ROM.

What Hboots are others using? Is there a standard or "unchained" Hboot i can flash to get me going -- this is just totally bizarre.

I tried flashing the following: with a FULL WIPE between installation attempts (formatting : cache, data, system, sdext, & dalvik)

JellyBean DS v1.7

JellyBean DS v1.4

JellyBean DS v1.3

JellyKang 2.1

JellyKang 2.0

LiquidSmooth 2.4

GimmeABreak 2.0

PACMan v23.0

I just get stuck at the splash screen... I am rooted and S-OFF which makes this very strange...

my default scenario: currently Miktouch 0.7 (gingerbread)

*** UNLOCKED ***

doubleshot PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

Hboot-1.45.0013

radio-11.16.3504.20_2

eMMC-boot

nov 21, 2011

what gives...??? has anyone else had a simillar exerience? where and how can i find info on stock rom RUU and going back to S-ON....

this is very troubling :(

I tried re-running the device through revolutionary.io tool again and it says that "HBOOT 1.45.0013 is not supported at this time" which makes me think that some OTA update (or something else) has corrupted my hboot and make it incompatible with roms above gingerbread -- is there a way to flash a known good Hboot ?

Be sure to thank weekends for hosting needed files and bluex for writing such elaborate guides on the doubleshot
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] steve_77:
Ok im about ready to give up here :

I return to stock 1.63 OTA image, try to go S-ON (failed) - all i managed to do was lock the bootloader :(

so again I unlocked bootloader ,returned to stock 1.63 OTA image, fastbooted flash TWRP , did full wipe w/ TWRP, fastbooted flash the JellyBeanDS_v1.4 boot.img file , went back into TWRP and installed the full JellyBeanDS_v1.4.zip rom -- and ended back where i started - stuck at factory splash screen for 20 min now and counting.....

HOWEVER this time i found something interesting... after about 30 minutes when I was about to yank the battery and accidentally hit the volume button which made a beep noise (that was unfamiliar in tone) .... granted im still staring at the hideous default splash screen but it does appear that something is going on in the background as when vol+ repeatedly pressed the beep gets louder, and when vol- pressed it beeps quieter... so it seems that something is running - I also see that if i plug it in to a usb cable it appears to be charging now (which wasn't happening before) but why all i see is the splash screen is the question... any ideas?

i cant connect via fastboot or adb to get any additional info... however i was able to manipulate the power button and the optical pad and after fiddling with it seemed based on the haptic response and various other noises i seemed to be in some sort of menu (although i cant see it) but if i select first option and drag the pad to the right - and press the pad... it appears to power-off my device... so def looks like there is some intelligence there but i just get the stupid splash screen all the time.

Can someone please do me a HUGE favor - can someone please shoot me a link to a - "just recently flashed" (i.e) bare JellyBeanDS_v1.4 or (even better JellyBeanDS_v1.7 ) perhaps in a TWRP (or even a CWM) backup? I just want to see if there is something wrong with my phone - if the nandroid/TWRP backup still doesn't work - i will know for sure that my device is jacked and will see if i can acquire another doubleshot somewhere - this is just ridiculous...

::(

i'll setup a dropbox account for the backup if someone can assist me in my quest...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] demkantor:
I'll have a chance this weekend if someone else doesn't, haven't had a chance to use my doubleshot in a few months so this will give a reason.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] daswerk:
I did not have any luck getting past 1.4. I flashed it over tbalden's P21 and it worked ok. (But did not backup) I've tried the newer ones and may get as far as the cyan sign in screen, screen won't respond and keeps rebooting. So I just go back to P21. Looking forward to using the newer versions and hope you get yours up and running.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] steve_77:
Ill try starting over with 1.3- but was thinking after some reading - isn't the splash screen mapped to a particular block of memory....

(FROM : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17384037)

Now thinking back to my x86 Assembly class - what if the last address of location (or some other part) of the splash block/partition ( mmcblk0p14 ) was truncated...

So what if the code at the end of the splash block in my device is missing a "JMP" as in when the code runs... which is why the splash-screen stays up on screen because the cpu somehow misses this instruction and doesn't know to how to get to the address where the regular video driver section of the code is located (or something like that).

Perhaps some of the code is missing from my " mmcblk0p14 " block section...

would it be possible for someone to send me a flashable splash screen zip of the mmcblk0p14 - "splash1" partition only - to test this theory.... ?

Ill try going back to JB DS 1.3 just in case.. but if i had a fastboot flashable image of the mmcblk0p14 - "splash1" partition - that would be great mini experiment.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] demkantor:

You can flash in recovery or extract images and use fastboot

But the splash partition only holds the image the bootloader controls the booting process so I really don't think it will help
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] steve_77:
Ill definitely try this with a new image - it cant hurt... and might be my only shot as i also see the same behavior on flashing other roms (tried several last night after wiping, startng from stock OTA, rewiping and flash zip but all of them give me the splash screen problem.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] steve_77:
UPDATE

well wish i had better news but think there is a problem with the device itself :( . So as per my previous posts I tried re-flashing the default splash as well as other splash screens to see if my theory back in post #10 proved out . I was able to change the flash image and re-try a few roms after wiping my device, but same deal... after flashing all i see is the splash screen.

So I wanted to do a quick test and tried instal RUU then flash recovery & full wipe followed by flashing the official CM9 build - and sadly i cant even get that ( the official CM9) running - i do hear noises just like in some of the other roms i flash and i do hear activity if i fiddle with all the buttons and such but all i see is the splash screen......

Im probably going to either see if i can get another used mts4g or upgrade to samsung note3... really love the slide though... would be willing to pay to have someone get it working.....

can someone please send me a few just installed ROM backups preferably as TWRP (or CWM) backups for my MTS4G (Doubleshot) -- via dropbox it would be good to establish that my hw is indeed bad before investing in a new device --- if folks can upload a backup of :

1) Official CM9 for doubleshot (to prove my hw ok)

2) a droid 4.3 release like JellyBeanDS_v1.3+ or JellyKang-doubleshot_v2.1

3) a droid 4.2 release like CM10.1 Liquid.v2.4 or CM10.1-PACman.v23.0.0-JB.4.2.2

if folks can do this that would be great... also if you cant see my dropbox account info below PM me...

[General Questions and Answers] FroZebra:
I'm thinking about buying a windows 8 tablet, but I'm having trouble deciding which one to get. There are a couple of options that I'm considering:

The Asus T100- The main reason I am considering this tablet is the included dock+keyboard and the fact that it has a full site USB port, which I would like for my FreedomPop USB dongle and my xbox controller wireless receiver. The screen is mediocre and the build quality is shoddy by several accounts. The processor is not the top of the line 3770, but the lower specced 3740.

The HP Omni 10: This is what I wish the Asus tablet was. This has a full HD 1920x1200 screen, compared to the t100s 1378x700 screen resolution. It also includes the best bay trail processor available, which is considerably faster than the t100. It also has a micro-hdmi port, which I would like for displaying movies in my college dorm tv. The only thing missing is that full size USB port. It has a micro USB port, but I don't know if a micro-USB to USB converter would be able to support things like the FreedomPop dongle, the xbox wireless adapter, and maybe an external hard drive. If it does support it, my problems are solved. If not, what are your suggestions? Do you know if those accessories can run under a micro-USB to USB adapter?
[General Questions and Answers] GipsyDanger:
What do you plan on using this tablet for?
[General Questions and Answers] dhelmet78:
Well, I have the Dell Lat10 with win8 pro. I got it back in the spring. It works fairly well, but I don't really use it often. I would suggest you make sure that no matter which you get, you might want to spring the extra for the full Windows 8, not RT. I know a bunch of people who got the RT and realized they couldn't do anything they wanted to do and were limited to the Windows Store for options.
[General Questions and Answers] FroZebra:
Basically, I want to lug it around in my backpack around college for taking notes, recreational purposes in the dorm, like watching movies, plugging it into the big screen, some light gaming with the xbox controller. I would also appreciate the better screen and more powerful processor. And I figured out the USB otg cable does work on the omni, so the obvious choice is the omni. Now I just need a good tablet holder so I can type using an external keyboard.

And by the way, to that other dude, don't answer just to answer haha. None of these tablets have windows RT; they both have full windows 8, the omni is $50 more expensive than the t100 at $400., they both sport a micro SD card reader and a micro USB, the omni has a micro hdmi port, the t100 has a full size USB port. The t100 has a keyboard dock included in the cost, while the omni has a full HD 1920x1200 screen compared to the 1378x780 screen. The omni also has a decently faster processor than the t100. So the omni for me is the clear choice.

Anyway, about that tablet holder: I just need something that will be able to stand on a lecture hall flimsy desk. Any suggestions?
[General Questions and Answers] jinside:
I would look into the Dell venue pro 11.

Replaceable battery

Stylus with ntrig

Accessories available

Matches hp omni specs closely

Taking class notes on a tablet is rough without a stylus and palm rejection. You might want an ultrabook or hp split. Anytime you want to draw, write a formula, or place a device on uneven or small area input gets hairy.
[General Questions and Answers] GipsyDanger:
The omni seems like a pretty good tablet. I'd say wait until Black Friday and Cyber Monday to see if there are any good deals on more high end tablets, maybe you can find a deal on a Surface Pro.

HP Omni 10 otg?

I would also like to know if the HP Omni 10 has OTG-usb support and 3G dongle support, via an otg cable.

I found in internet the specifications and says: MicroUSB2.0 typeAB connector (Support Host Mode Only)

Does anybody knows if this means it may supports OTG via otg cable?

The Omni 10 has much better screen because is Gorilla 3, anti-glare and anti-smudge. I would like it had a keyboard included, but I hope a usb-keyboard can be connected.

Another interesting win 8.1 tablet is the Lenovo miix 2: 8''. According to internet comments it seems it supports otg.

very nice case.. I've had it since August, and it is still in a great condition...

Build quality is very good.. and it's way much better the the standard case for the JAM.

it also has 2 mini pockets for your extra memory cards... I usualy keep my music stored in a seperate SD... and thus, this case becomes quiet handy :wink:

I have a silicon case which is ok, but in the end I just found some adhesive foil which I covered the back of my magician (and ipod) with.

I love mine with a silicon skin. The one I purchased from ebay is the thin silicon skin that comes in 5 colours ...didn't like the one with the protective screen cover, too thick the skin.

The skin makes my phone-PDA stands out..whenever I take it out to answer phone or use the PDa function, everyone nearby just stares at it :-D

the pastel light blue I am using at the moment..it makes my o2 mini look like light bluish grey which is very striking.

The flourescent green and pink look outstanding too although pink is more suited for gals.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] stratoboom:
i found it on ebay.

it's great.... first days plastic is very heavy and sometimes there is not contact between stilus and screen

after couple of days, leather and screen cover get magicians shape and now i use only my fingers ; )

the best case i ever buyed.....
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] O2mini_noob:
Boxwave Flexiskin is amazing..I just put it on today...looks like by far the thinnest skin you can find for the Magician. Whereby most silicon skins today add weight and thickness to the Magician plus not contoured to fit charging cradles..the Flexiskin from Boxwave makes you feel like you're using a naked mini.

The button skin is incredible...you can actually feel the symbols on those buttons. It is the must have skin !!

I've tried a few cases and by far the best is the CAPDASE. It's an Aluminium case with a double hinge. Only fault is the window is smaller than the Pdair and is offset to the left.

My main criteria for a case is that it must protect the PDA, be easy to use and not bulk up the unit as did the pdair case.

I also had to make a minor modification in order to get access to the stylus. Otherwise a great case.

And when turning on htc 3 gesture on, screen only works with two finger multitouch(i dont use it anyway,but it still shouldnt be this way :) )

So it's not perfect. it's very very close, only if first problem would be removed, i'd stick with 1.0.3. But in vipers storage/applications menu sections are nicely fixed and looks ok with no glitches.

In this situation i'd rather go back to revolution hd 7.3, but in my location it has bug, which sets wrong time zone, so sense weather clock shows wrong time,even if timezone is manually set to right one. so disappointingly i must leave ics alone :)

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3vo3d:
Battery life is normally driven by your kernel. However, chips are mass manufactured and as such are not identical. So what works well for me and my chip may not be brilliant for you.

Imo the only thing you can safely compare, regarding battery life, between two handsets is screen off time. The best I've experienced is 1% drain per hour. to get that I use jedix20 rom with the built in saber kernel.

i still have no idea what they mean by great battery life good battery life etc

well my time on desire hd it was quite easy aosp roms had bettery battery then stock rom even and there were was time that it was a small phone would notice battery life in about 5-6 hours

what i wanted to ask was that if yr using aosp pls share ur stats on a dynamic thread with rom detail ive used searches several times but still no avil of info i need people/users should share mare info to the developers to the people so that it would make easy development
