Rogers is about as helpful as telus on these matters. "we do not have unlock codes available... we dont have access.... blah blah blah...."

Edit: I have now tried Rogers again and offered them money... still no go. I also called Acer Canada support and they state that they have no way of accessing unlock codes for Rogers exclusive phones. Corporate rubbish.
[Liquid S100 General] [[ Cold ]]:
check ebay...

http://cgi.ebay.com/UNLOCK-CODE-ROG...tem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item2eae40a1e2

vache's phone was NOT originally from rogers so it couldnt get a code... original rogers liquidE phones should be unlockable with these codes
[Liquid S100 General] touchtweak:
YEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much. The above link from EBay worked! Booyah!

I paid, sent my IMEI, and within a couple of hours..... voila; unlocked. I am now on the telus network with a Rogers exclusive(?) phone. Feels so good to stick it to em!

Now if I can only get a refund from the other sites i tried..... ????!!!????
[Liquid S100 General] Jayziac:
I thought I read in one of the threads here or at modaco (by malez maybe?) that said there was a text file that has a line that says something like 'lock = 1', and by rooting and editing that to say 0 is enough to unlock. Not sure if it was verified. Worth a try anyway if the phone's already rooted. Just have to search for 'lock' string in the system files.
[Liquid S100 General] kidoucorp:
Apparently, some people have tried that (like vache) and it didn't worked :(

Solved: Unlock the Acer Liquid E

That's exciting news !!!! I have tried 3 different online sites all of whom

could not find a code for my 1 month old rogers liquidE.

I have asked the site mentioned in this thread if they can do it and gave them my IMEI as I do not want to send another site more money just to have them say no and wait and go through the refund process or worse, chase them for the money.

Hoping for good news from them.

When you got you code, was it as simple as inserting it into the little window that pops up when you put in a different (non-rogers) sim ?

Thanks
[Liquid S100 General] touchtweak:
Yes, the little window. You get ten tries before the phone self destructs taking the world, the universe, and everything with it.

I went through the same process as you and lo and behold it worked.

Good luck.
[Liquid S100 General] halibu:
Unlocked !!

Yippee...... Mine seems to have worked too.... Thanks to all :d
[Liquid S100 General] [[ Cold ]]:

Can anyone confirm that you cannot use a Rogers Acer Liquid on a Fido account without it being unlocked. They are the same company after all. Thanks!
[Liquid S100 General] Chewy11:

[Liquid S100 General] pokerpup:

I have a Rogers Acer Liquid.

I made the purchase but he couldn't find the unlock code for me.

But he gave me a refund.

Rogers must be tightening security on this.
[Liquid S100 General] leungda:
I got mine unlocked by ebay. I think I will spent CAD$15 for unlock code better than mass up my phone.

and it works. I am using the Fido Liquid on Bell network now.

Does the ebay guy also unlock Acer Liquid E phones purchased from FIDO? his add doesn't say anything about Fido, only Rogers.

anybody know???

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mootmaina:
Is there anyway there can be something created like this for all us noobs wanting an easy solution?

http://lifehacker.com/5576340/simple-root-unlocks-htc-evo-4g-in-one-click
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rynoon:
Probably not quite so simple. Currently rooting the X10 involves entering three commands into a terminal on your computer, booting your phone into recovery mode, and pressing a button on the phone during step 2. The terminal commands could be called from a GUI app that would simplify that and there might be a way to have adb reboot the phone into recovery mode, but there's still a bit of interaction you need to do with the phone yourself.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] robbyf66:
It's already too easy, and if you can't figure it out, it's probably a dangerous idea to root it because you could ruin your phone easily and most likely not know how to repair it.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Higgins12:
+1

The Process to root the X10 isn't too hard with a little bit understanding. If someone can't figure it out , he doesn't need root.

Just my 2cent no offense.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] FRiKiNFRoG:
Agreed. This is already simple IF you know your way around a computer just a little. It is well explained and now with video tutorials if you still can't manage to do it, don't do it. Keep your phone up to date, you don't need anything more at this point. No offense intended here too :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
We are not able to create a one-touch root ATM.

And even if we would be able, why should we do? This Root is easy! The only problems here are driver issues and DeviceID problems.

So for everyone this is not simple enough its a good idea so stay on stock firmware.

A little interaction with phone is good at all, because you learn much about this progress if you just read in the files we provide :) (thats another reason we released this in batch format).

So just read a bit and you will see how simple the whole idea and the process is!

If you are not expert enough to understand whats happening i'm not sure if you really need root then :)

Best Regards

Bin4ry
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] gr3yh0und:
Some people are lazy to figure out the steps.

Dont overfeed them too much.

I tried all the process of rooting on X10 up to the first root batch, the one with long method up to this date of root and its very easy. There are Tutorials and Video.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] damirbusic:
No, we are not lazy but affraid to break the phone. Ive had OmniaHD before X10 and there was custom ROMs from the man called HyperX that was only double click and connect the phone. I am not saying that those guys didnt make this as simple as they can but there are 100 of problems and tutorials, there are some decrypted ROMS and Official ROMs, there are methods that need Device-ID number and other that does not need that...so, I am reading all of this since root was official and I cannot find one way that is said to be the best and with no problems.

Also: how do I get my ROM that is on the phone on my computer in case I need it back for warranty reasons ? What method is the best to put newer ROM., there is SEUS and other one. Can we put clean official 020 ROM right on the phone and not by UK 016 and then update ?

I mean, there are million questions that we are trying to answer by reading this forum. I admire you guys because this is easy for you but please, be patient with us, programing idiots :) , there are people that only want better phone and have no clue in programing, like me for instance...cos I only want to remove Moxier and Quadrapop, only for that I want root, nothing else.

Cheers
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
then simply follow my provided steps and you will have R2 Rom with root.

Afterwards you can deleted moxier and quadrapop.

Just understand: I cannot be made easyer !!!!!!!

The exoploit works like this:

You flash a "old" R1 firmware -> Do the fota -> Copy over some stuff like su and superuser.apk

For now its the easyest way to do.

If we manage to flash customs it wouldnt be much easyer to do oO

Regards

Bin4ry
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] gr3yh0und:
Yes its lazy. Because some people are lazy understanding ROOT and How it is done.

If you read it carefully and understand it briefly you will not get it bricked and know your mistakes and how solve it.

Plus you can't get satisfaction on doing it easily. Hard work is a good feeling :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] damirbusic:
Tnx a lot for instructions but they are pretty short :)

New instructions for FULL R2BA023 ROOT

Step 1

Flash Rom with preferred method!

+++++What method ? I cannot find DeviceID in my registry, I have tried to find it with my phone connected on my PC and when it is not connected and there is no that string when I type that in search. Then, can I flash it with Omnius without this DeviceID number ?

Step 2

First startup the phone and activate USB-Debugging:

Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging!

run step 2 and select "update from sdcard" on phone

+++++when to connect the phone ? Turn the phone ON and go to USB debugging -> run step2.cmd -> connect the phone ? -> hit update from SDCard on the phone

Step 3

run step 3 and will root your phone

+++++phone is connected the whole time from step2.cmd ?

ATTENTION: If you have X10i you are DONE!

+++++You see, we need instructions like a blind man :-)) If I have done it I would write them really step by step so that little kid could do it.

Tnx a lot for your hard work !
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] brat81:
Geez gaining root on the x10 was soooooo much easier than gaining root on the HTC Dream (g1)

Pretty much as everyone else has said if you find these simple steps to gain root difficult then maybe you shouldn't be doing it because really it's quite simple.

I've done everything the right way and i don't seem to be suffering from any of the problems everyone else is getting.

The best way to root is on a 32bit os (will save the hassles with 64bit java)

and if you can't find your device id install Seus and boot phone into flash mode then try and find device id again.

I wonder if it's possible to have all these excess How to root and Custom rom threads removed ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] brat81:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=711907

Read the instructions if you get stuck re-read the instructions again then if you're still stuck search the forums/thread as i'm sure someone else has asked the same question and has had a answer. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ricey1986:
seriously people if you struggle with three steps (or five if on x10a) then you really shouldn't be doing this, the steps are pretty self explanatory. If you still want root after all the warnings gotten off here then here's a video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AZ_10cvd9k

Just do as he does if still you cant do it then put the phone away and find yourself and old SE T18, it may be more suited.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] synlar:
Get SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) from sony ericsson website, through their update things. Install it, and update your phone through that. That will give you device drivers, and then your deviceID should be in registry.

'What method?' The files are the first links in the guide.

Connect the phone after setting it to USB debugging, then run step2.cmd

Yes.

The thing is, these guys are experts. When you have an expert writing a guide, a lot of things are assumed that you'd know. For example, there's no need to explain what is meant by 'run step2.cmd' But for someone who doesn't know anything, you'd have to tell them to 'double click the file' Same thing as explaining to someone they have to extract the downloaded files.

I understand what you mean though, there's some gaps in the guide that could be helpful if they were filled up, but hopefully they will get polished after they're done figuring out all the updates happening. For example, new 020 firmware just got released for X10a, so now they have to add that on and maybe change some steps for X10a users. And optimally they'd wanna be able to get custom ROMs working, so they'll need to redo the guide again.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] damirbusic:
Tnx a lot for your help, I have managed to get it working. Yes, instructions should be step-by-step but not "double clikc this" detailed :)

Cheers
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
I'm thinking of what problems would be there if we had released root in the hard way we had before ?! :D

Everyone wants us to release after we annouced and we always said its too hard :D

And now this easy three steps are too complicated for some of you.

Seriously :

Just look in the batch files to understand what is going on, you really need no diploma to understand what basic commands are running inside our files. And if you will take a look most of your questions are answered by itsself.

Hi! I just had a quick question about the keyboard on the 1.2 devices. My wife has been asking me to find her a better keyboard for her MyTouch, saying that her current one sucks and she wants one that doesn't suck (I don't know what that means either).

So, what is the best keyboard for the 1.2 still on android 1.6?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sike89:
probably "better keyboard"
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Jimmy Conley:
Smart Keyboard Pro

I like it but it is very similar to the stock one. What complaints does she have about the stock keyboard?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] gabrialxue:
My personal favorite keyboard would have to be swype. Coming in at second would be the HTC keyboard
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] C0dy:
I love the stock keyboard, second would be the HTC keyboard (attached.)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] joe_coolish:
I downloaded and installed Better Keyboard. But it's doing weird auto corrections like when she types "no" and then hits space, it inserts the word "nothing" or "yes" inserts "yesterday". I turned off the auto correction and that "fixed" the problem, but then there is no auto corrections...

I'll install the HTC keyboard and see what she thinks.

Her complaint is that when she types really fast, some of the letters don't register (probably because of the no multi touch?)

Swype might be a good option. I'll try that :)

Thank you for the comments
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Vonrottes:

You think there is anyway now with froyo coming out, and it being faster and all (even thought it would be a battery drain maybe..) to have a youtube video widget? Being able to watch a video from youtube on your homescreen?

Example: Your searching for a video on youtube and start watching it, you get a text or just want to get to your homescreen and instead of it stopping you can continue to play/see it on your homescreen as a widget.

I am new to Android development but not new to Linux. I am looking for a little introduction on how to root a device initially (suppose nobody had rooted it yet).

Can any devs chime in with the details as to what they are doing? If you take the HTC Evo for example, everybody starts out by flashing a modified PC36IMG.zip -- specifically, what did the the dev do to that image? Decompile and modify source? Modify code in a hex editor? Use an exploit?

Hello all,

Played around with unrevoked 1, loved it, did the OTA update once and obviously my (soft) root ability has been lost.

Problem is I can't even restore DOWN to the stock firmware. I get Error 140 - bootloader version error.

If I try doing any custom flashing, I get an error about flashing to an older version.

I've done a ton of reading and searching, it would seem I'm "stucK' at the moment correct? Can't downgrade, and can't flash my way to a rooted/free bootloader?

Thanks in advance guys! looking forward to spending some serious time here to learn!

3 things make the nexus get very hot.

charging it makes it get hot.

doing a lot of data transfer on 3g gets it hot. for example if you do a long period of web browsing over 3g for a long period of time, or transferring a large data file over 3g, or streaming something. all that gets my nexus hot (heheh).

or just running the cpu at 1ghz for a long time. like running a benchmark test over and over.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
I would be very careful of that 41C, its mildly high (nothing to be seriously worried about). I would advise using wifi when the battery is at 100% already to reduce heat from charging. If you are not yet on froyo, it can help with some heat issues. Creating a mifi can cause a lot of heat due to what is required to make a mifi, high data transfers through 3g WHILE high data transfers through the wifi card to create the mifi network.
