Sorry if this one is posted again but I couldn't anything!

When I'm trying to flash the Kernel w/ kexec-hardboot patch (CM 10.2) from the second post I'm getting the error you're saying on FAQ and when

I'm trying to flash the framework-res I'm getting the same error! I have Multirom TWRP and Multirom. I don't know if they are needed to

flash a secondary ROM but I can't flash one either!

Primary ROM: Android Revolution HD 62 (I thought if it's because my primary is Sense ROM and I read something on the posts but I didn't understand!

Multirom TWRP: the one from the posts, it says 2.3.6 when I'm booting on recovery! (I thouht that maybe I need 2.3.6.0 or newer to flash a ROM)

What can I do?

Sorry for my English!

The phone lacks the button that is usually used to launch google now (menu button).

What's the best way folks have found to integrate google now into the new sense UI?

How does black jack work for rooting froyo OB!!

Method 2 - Froyo (V1XX)

Required : installed USB drivers

Enable USB Debugging (settings > apps > development)

Plug the phone, launch BlackJack and follow instructions

Allow 127.0.0.1 connection if prompted by AVs / Firewalls. Read BlackJack's intro for more details.

Soooo....

-Install P970 drivers on a Windows machine.

-Enable "USB Debugging" (settings > apps > development) on the phone

-Plug phone to PC via USB cable

-Run BlackJack

-Ignore the virus-checker warning (blackjack is doing what it should, so is the virus checker)

-After you get a "success!" message, check the applications and look for a "Superuser" icon.

-Go to the Google Play Store, download ROM Manager (by CWM).

-Via the USB port, load whatever ROM images and applications to the phone (I create a folder called "install").

-Launch ROM Manager.

-Select install (superuser will pop up a screen asking to give ROM Manager permissions - tap "OK/Yes").

-You'll want to wipe the Dalvik cache.

I have the 2GB data plan from Verizon. If I root my phone and use a free wifi hot spot is that actually still using my plans data?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] skiman10:
Yes it will. It will use your monthly data allotment.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
the free wifi hotspot app just means you can use tether without VZW app or having a tether plan. Data is calculated on the carriers side so there is no way around this.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] gatormark08:
A free hotspot like Starbucks or MacDonald's would not. If you're connected to WiFi it doesn't use your data plan. Same for home WiFi.

Hi everybody,

This is my 1st thread. After try to find a solution from this forum, I decide to post my question here. Currently using Xperia V 4.3 .210 custom ROM from Steve Boss. My predictive dialer not working for a 2nd time after flash this ROM. At 1st, I believe I made a mistake to uninstall a few apk files in system app folder. I can't remember what apk file did I delete. Then, I decide to re-flash my ROM and the predictive dialer working again. I start uninstalling unwanted apps again but this time I'm doing it very carefully. Every apps deleted, I'll check this feature whether it affected or not. After finish uninstalling all unwanted app from my phone, I test again if predictive dialer stop working or not. Everything is okay.

But after a few days later, today I notice this feature not working again. Hopefully somebody can assist me how to make it working again without flash a ROM. Thank you.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
1. Re-install sonyericsson.android.smartsearch.apk or Smartsearch.apk from a back-up.

or

2. Use EXDialer from the Play Store. It doesn't need Smart Search (at least not until 4.2, I can't say for 4.3 but I don't know why it wouldn't be the same).
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] capoi:
Thank you so much bro. Yes I uninstalled the smartsearch apk without knowing it also relate to contact search. I always thought it is only for google internet searching. Just now, I opt to try Exdialer. After a few second, I can notice this app much faster than stock app. Stock app will take maybe 1 second to open. Thank so much for your help.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sunnychad:
Hi All,

I am an O2 customer in the UK and as they were the original company to bring the XDA concept to us, why have they chosen to not release the XDA Trion in the UK? I am well aware it is out in Germany but why not here? Have they got too many XDA Mini S units in stock or what?

If anyone can shed some light on this, please do, what have they kept up their sleeve? Is there something better on the way already?

I look forward to your comments and thanks for the feedback.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] marisa4755:
I just had a call from o2 for business following my email to them of when they expected the Trion to be released in the UK, and the rep said that there were no plans to release it in the UK at all.

So, how are they going to compete with T mobile who not only are going to release it over here, but also have a great data tariff in Flext with web n walk?

Orange, who are already offering it, and vodafone who already have it apparently!

I have been with O2 since the Genie days, and have been reasonably happy with them up until recently. Probably round the time they were bought out.

Bizarre!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] TheBrit:
They didn't do the XDA Neo either. :roll:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wwaveydave:
Maybe they have something better up their sleeves?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jah:
Well Voda and T-Mobile has HSDPA but O2 don't so perhaps this the reason why. However it does seem a bit odd given the amount of effort O2 made over the XDA Exec.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wwaveydave:
O2 tend to have a yearly lifecycle on their XDA's whereas the other SP's tend to release as and when. Bearing this in mind and the fact that the Mini S and Exec have only been out for 8 and 9 months respectively, I wouldn't expect to see a new device from O2 until November/December.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sunnychad:
Interesting point on the product life cycle. I have heard that O2 are seriously looking at releasing the HP Ipaq 6915, so maybe that is why they have steered clear of the Trion for now. Also I do not like the look of the HTC TyTn or the Vodafone V1605 compared with the Orange SPV M3100 and Trion. The button configuration on the latter two is more pleasing to the eye. So if I want one I have to go for the "ugly" one as I have a great deal from O2!!! I wish we could get the Dopod 838 pro here, subsidised on contract!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
I just had an interesting conversation with O2 business regarding the release of the XDA Trion in the UK.

First person I spoke to told me that the Trion was not on the 15 week schedule of new phones releases so it definately wouldn't be released in that time.

So I phoned a different number at O2 and was told that the Trion is expected sometime late August or September??!!! I told the man what I had previously been told by the other rep and he says that is rubbish and that the unit is currently being tested by the testing unit prior to it's UK release!

So it seems the phone is coming to the UK...but I bet if I call a third person at O2 they will tell me something completely different...*sigh*

Why dont these people sing from the same hymnsheet?

Anyone heard any different news on the Trion's UK release date (if ever?)??

Al
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sunnychad:
You are right there. They have no idea what they are doing. Someone I spoke to said it is for America only. I said O2 have a network in America, she says yes, not checked, but I didn't think so. I said so why is out in Germany? You must be mistaken sir, must be.

I asked about HSDPA, and they checked with network services who said it is not being released by O2 as it offers very little extra bandwidth over 3G. I said I think you should ask them to check that.

I am on such a stonking tariff, I do not want leave O2, so here's hopeing the Trion turns up, otherwise I will have to conisder the P990i.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
Yes Sunnychad, they dont have a clue. I really want this phone and am on a mission to find out the truth about UK release or not. See what you can find out at your end too.

Al
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sunnychad:
I spoke to someone in retentions about leaving as I wanted to move to a network that has the equivalent of the Trion and is offering HSDPA too. She put me on hold after telling me I was a select customer etc. Came back to say it is on the cards but there is no confirmed release date as the Trion is still in testing etc. I said OK. She then said there is something else coming called the O2 Jet. I am also aware that O2 are releasing the HP HW6915.

Also just found this link. I wonder what this handset is.

Anyone?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] pof:
This is an O2 xda Atom Exec:

http://www.seeo2.com/product/XdaAtomExec/template/Product.vm

It is manufactured by Quanta, not HTC:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Atom_Exec
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sunnychad:
I think you are mistaken.

There are pictures of 2 phones, one is referred to as New XDA and has a camera on the front panel, therefore 3G.

The other is of the XDA Atom Exec in a state of disrepair. Have another look and let me have you thoughts.

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] pof:
oh! you're right, haven't noticed the camara on first picture before.

don't know which one is it :?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
Thanks Sunnychad. Both the O2 Jet and Atom Exec are not phones I'd want. Desperate to have th O2 Trion, just love it's look and feel and want to stay with O2. Please can you keep me posted regarding anything you hear about it's UK release?

Thanks

Al :wink:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] dom_mitchell1:
Email just recieved....

I've just recieved an email from O2 re. the release of the Tytn, doesn't look good....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
But are we to believe this latest reponse when the tesing team are actually 'testing' the Trion for the UK now?

Wouldn't take too much from that. You know, I think we just have to wait and see as O2 can't give us anything solid to go by.

Al
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wwaveydave:
O2 UK are not releasing the Trion.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
Dave, I don't think anyone can comment about it's release for sure as I've been told by the media dept. at O2 that they are testing the unit for general release in the UK. Also Ive been told by a shop (unbelievable I know) that it is to be released. As well as being told completely conflicting info by other sources.

We'll see.

Al
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] dom_mitchell1:
I too was told by a shop that they will not say anything for definite bcause "they are not allowed to" until the end of August when the phones for release by the end of the year will be announced.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sunnychad:
My upgrade is due from Sat 26 August, so I can wait the week. I will pop into my local O2 store on Saturday to enquire about the XDA Trion and anything else they plan to release.

Will keep you posted
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] steverae:
Had this reply from o2 today regarding the release of the Trion.

I'll ring em and see what they say, my contract runs out in october so i'm hoping something will be in the pipeline by then...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
Interesting. How would one buy a germaan O2 phone? would the operating system not be in German? I visited the german O2 website but struggle to understand the language, can anyone help on how the acquisition of this phone might be from there?

Also Im going to phone the number is the post above tomorrow to find out more.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] julianfong:

i bought my trion from an online shop in Germany called MG&C.....they have the german trions there and you can order it with the origianl german version rom or you can get it with an english version rom....so basically the english version is just a reflashed rom using one of the roms that are available in the ftp site here.....all the roms that are avaiable on the ftp site work fine with the german trion as i have used and tested all of them.....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] bydandie:
That's because it isn't coming to the UK
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
We'll see.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sunnychad:
Apparently teh XDA Trion is in testing. The conversation I had confirmed that test units are in the UK and being run through their paces. No date for release and no guarantee of release. So still no closer to any firm information one way or the other.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
yes thats what i was told a week ago, that "the units were in testing". Lets hope the tests are good enough for O2!

They are having hard time fixing this alignment issue...

They should join force with Dopod HK and fix it faster !!!hahaha

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
Ive just seen the MDA vario 2 (T- Mobile's version) at a local shop.

The deal theyre giving is superb right now. For £37.50 p/m you get £180 allowance to use as u wish, e.g. 900 mins xnet/anytime. PLUS web n walk unlimited high speed broadband! That's prettu impressive for that money.

The down side...have you seen the phone? UGLY maroon colour all around the phone plus inside on the keyboard...very bad mistake. Some people (myself included) dont like colour specific phones,(and I hate maroon) - they should have just made is plain silver or black or something other than this. If it was silver I'd have bought one today. Quite shallow really but I like nice looking phone and this is plain ugly.

Great deal though, yet to see a better one.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fei886:
hi, is this price for a 12month contract or 18 month???????
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
18 months - good deal though eh? I wish O2 would make an announcement either way about UK Trion release.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
Despite my rants about awful colour choice, today I walked into T Mobile shop and bought one of those Vario 2 devices! The deal itself was too good to not take.

I have to say, having used it for half a day, it's unbelievable! Wifi range amazing - out to my garden. And of course the 3G broadband unlimited with web n walk pro (which means I can use as a hi-speed modem with my laptop) - all for £40 a month - the phone did cost me £60 though, small change for the package Ive got.

Ive also tried my slingplayer mobile software which works amazingly well. Means I can watch my home cable TV anywhere with the unlimited broadband as the web n walk pro allows streaming! Skype works a dream too!

This deal cant be bettered and I'd highly recommend the Vario 2...so far so good!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] grayhaze:
According to O2 retentions when I spoke to them a couple of days ago, the Trion is due to be released in the UK sometime this month. Someone else on here has also been quoted September 14th as the release date. Obviously they could be making this up in an attempt to keep all their customers who are moving to T-mobile, but I was actually told this toward the end of our conversation when I'd made it clear I wasn't sticking around.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
That's odd as I also spoke to O2 retentions twice a couple of days ago and they told me that they had absolutely no information about the Trion, all they could tell me was the new phones coming in October and that was the O2 Ter and the O2 Ice.

DOesnt really matter anyway as O2 cant even come close to matching this t mobile deal. It's the best deal around.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fei886:
hi, I went to o2 shop today, and the sales person have no idea about Trion, then I asked him if there is any new xda phone coming soon, the answer is yes, they gonna release somthing called "Nano" next month, which make me very confuse, I think they have no idea what they talking about. ! :roll:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
Oh dear, sounds like the sales person had their wee iPod on their mind! Highly recommend u jump shop to T Mobile...for the phone alone if nothing else.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fei886:
yes, I am thinking either go to orange or T-mobile, I went to orange shop today, and they do 35 per month for 18month, and the phone cost 49.

don't know how much T-mobile will cost, will find out tommorrow¬¬¬¬¬
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fei886:
oh, I hate the pink colour, big misstake for t-mobile, otherwise i will definitely go for V-II. bu the way does the phone got MSN messager if i buy for t-mobile??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Otto-Mate:
It's not Pink! :)

It's a coppery metalic dark red, and I like it.

M.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] grayhaze:
Yes, let's stop this whole 'pink' nonsense once and for all. Until you've actually seen one in person you can't really comment on the colour. From the photographs circulating online you'd be led to believe that the front of the phone is a sort of beige colour and the keyboard a deep T-mobile pink, but these are just the result of photographing metallic surfaces, which pick up any bad lighting conditions when the photo was taken. The front is in fact a combination of matte and shiny silver, and the keyboard is a slightly desaturated metallic red. It's not unattractive, and in general use you don't even notice it to the point where it's an eyesore.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wywywywy:
The fascia is Gun Metal Grey.

The keyboard is Rustic Red.

As for Trion... when I rang O2 to say I want to switch to T-Mob, the operator on the phone seemed to know about the Trion, but she said it won't be coming till next year.

So she offered me one year free line rental to keep the number alive and wait for its release :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] steverae:
Interesting, have just emailed O2 again to see what they say regarding the Trion. Made it clear i will be switching handsets soon either through them or through T-Mobile.. We'll see what they say.....

As far as looks go, the XDA trion has got to be the best looking of the bunch between o2, orange, t-mobile and htc them selves.... although the spv m3100 looks great, it's got that great big orange splodge on the top of it ..... (orange logo)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] fei886:
I just find out in a website that O2 are going to release O2 Mars, check it out

http://www.slashphone.com/71/5190.html
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sunnychad:
Spoke with the "muppets" at O2 today. Tried to get an explanation of i-Mode Vs 3G, their stock answer was i-Mode is for internet access and 3G for video calling. Great!!!

Anyhow I was told that O2 will be releasnig an XDA Mini replacement around Xmas this year when sales are at their best. I guess this links in well with the comment from someone somewhere that XDA's have a 12 month cycle before being replaced.

God only knows if it is true but the hunt is on!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] steverae:
My god that is one ugly looking phone..... way to square for my liking.... i got a reply back from o2 stating that the xda trion is on the way but have no confirmed release date for it.....

My contract runs out october 15 so if it's not around by then they have basically said switch to another network... nice eh, so much for customer loyalty.

we'll hope and prey it comes out soon, after all, it's not like i'm on their lowest tarrif.....

keep searching guys and gals, i just hope the 'replacement' isn't gonna be that mars thing... it's ugly and i'm guessing not made by htc.....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sunnychad:
I totally agree with Steverae that it is ugly and far too square. I imagine it is a prototype and hope it is due for some stylistic enhancements. I reckon it is an uglier brother to the Hermes 100 & 200, actually it looks like a crossbreed

As for the spec, it might restore my confidence in the WM5 platform as the processor should make it fly. A little more ROM would have been nice, as would more RAM and HSDPA but I think I can go without those things if the unit runs efficiently and I hope they get a good battery for it!!!

The guy I spoke to at O2 knew about the handset in my opionion as he said at around Xmas, O2 will release a replcement to the XDA Mini (I assume he meant Mini S) but with 3G etc.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] qbaser:
sorry sunnychad and the other hopefuls...this just in from O2 media relations;

Hi there.

Having checked this out with our Devices Team, I’m afraid the answer is that O2 has no current plans to sell the Xda Trion in the UK.

The reason for this is that the German market is more advanced than the UK in the utilisation of PDA phones, with much higher shipment levels. It’s all a question of economics and the decision has therefore been taken to limit the UK portfolio at present to the Xda Mini S and Xda Exec.

Sorry for the disappointing reply.

Best regards,

David
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] dom_mitchell1:
So are people taking that as definite no as far as UK release goes?

Damn, I really want to upgrade my XDA IIs.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] monkeyleader:
So I actually wanted to move from my XDA Exec to the mini but didnt want to loose GPRS - the Trion looked like the perfect solution until I see its not being released in the UK - just called O2 sales and customer service and they confirmed ... buggar !
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] dom_mitchell1:
So further to this....

has anyone heard any sort of information as to a replacement for the miniS yet? There's got to be one in the next couple of months.
