Hey,

I'm pretty new here but I used Simpleroot for my first root as well. Sounds like if it is not loading the PC36IMG file it's either named incorrectly or it's not on the SD card. Can you verify that you have a file PC36IMG.zip in the root of your SD card?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanBergundy:
Hey man, whatever makes you sleep at night. Just saying, your posts are pointless.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteelH:
You can't screw that up, it's beyond simple!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxjuicymintxx:
Yes, I've got the pc36img.zip on my SD card, and it is named correctly. I've even tried formatting my card.

As to the 'argument' that's going on within this thread, its pointless. SORRY I didn't post in the correct place. Not like I'm the first. No need to bicker back & forth about it, that's just childish.

All I'm looking to do is fully root my phone. ive ran into some problems. so I came here hoping for a solution.

I've still had no success.

Thanks again to those who are willing to contribute, and help me solve this issue. I appreciate your time.

Canalys Q2 2010 smartphone market share figures are out: http://www.canalys.com/pr/2010/r2010081.html

According to them, Android is now the number one smartphone platform in the US, with 34% market share vs. RIM's 32% and Apple's 21.7%.

Worldwide, Android sales grew 886% from last year.

Worldwide Android sales numbers were not disclosed, but the 886% growth suggests 9.7 million Android devices sold (up from 1.1 million in Q2 2009), vs. Apple's 8.7 million iPhones, which would put Android in third place behind Nokia with 38% worldwide market share and RIM with 18%.

According to Google, 160,000 Android devices are now activated each day, which add up to over 15 million devices per quarter. Thus, we could see worldwide Android market share surpassing RIM's within a few months and even approaching Nokia.

HTC is also a big winner with 14% of the US smartphone market, only behind RIM (32.1%) and Apple (21.7%).
[General Topics] JimSmith94:
I understand that Windows Mobile is declining, but I wonder why it wasn't even mentioned. Also, why was HTC listed when they are just a hardware manufacturer? :confused:
[General Topics] Fermat:
Because the top three hardware manufacturers have been mentioned and HTC is number three:

RIM 32.1%

Apple 21.7%

HTC 14%

Windows Mobile has fallen too far behind.
[General Topics] phatmanxxl:
windows mobile is not a hardware manufacturer
[General Topics] GnatGoSplat:
Are these figures only indicative of 2010 Q2? I'm curious what would the figures be if they included all old devices still in use. Would Android still be #1?
[General Topics] Fermat:
No, not yet. But sales numbers are more important, the give you an idea how many people will use it in the future.
[General Topics] GnatGoSplat:
FWIW, here's an article that lists statistics for marketshare of all existing devices.

http://www.fiercemobilecontent.com/story/android-wins-battle-iphone-still-winning-war/2010-08-05

The future is looking good for Android. It's interesting what a rapid decline there has been for WinMo. I feel like Windows Phone 7 will be too little, too late to save WinMo, especially with the lack of backwards compatibility. BlackBerry is still #1. It's the one smartphone platform I've never tried, though the hardware and screenshots have never looked impressive enough for me to even consider it.
[General Topics] cmstackar:
Blackberry is only good if your company uses the blackberry servers for email, other than that, the only nice thing I can say about them is that they have nice keyboards. Horrid web browser, though.
[General Topics] GnatGoSplat:
In that case, I'd never bother with Blackberry because web browsing is what I use my phone for most.

wish people would stop refering to windows 7 phone as "winmo". The only simularities are that its made by Microsoft. Pretty much totaly diferent. WinMo sadly is dead. Win 7, totaly new and nothing like Winmo.

edit: btw, iPhone sales dropped coz of people waiting for iPhone 4 I would imagine
[General Topics] maxpower097:
To correct your post yes WM is dead,,, just like XP. And in your edit I believe you mean phone sales dropped coz of people waiting for the iphone 4 to be fixed.
[General Topics] souljaboy:
thats true , i dunno why ppl tend to not use their brain ...
[General Topics] Monty Burns:
no, i mean why would people buy a 3gs when a mystery new super phone was due to be released by Apple (the 4). I think the survey is based on statistics pre-iPhone 4 launch.

I actually doubt the Antenagate saga has had any real affect on iPhone 4 sales. I know of at least two people who bought it even though they knew about the reception issues.
[General Topics] Fermat:
No, Monty, the first week of iPhone 4 sales is included and as we know, half of the iPhone 4's first months sales happened in the first week.

Apple announced that they sold 3 million iPhones in the 21 days after the iPhone 4 launch.

That's 143,000 a day. And that includes the launch days, where ten times more iPhones are sold than on normal days.

There are 200,000 Android phones sold each day and that number is increasing fast.
[General Topics] Monty Burns:
Fair enough, then its probably as good a representation as we will ever get.

I doubt that figure! At that rate there won't be much of the planet in 5 years that won't have an Android phone!!! :D Seriously, there is no way that rate of sale can or will be sustained, can there??? :confused:
[General Topics] maxpower097:
double post, lag..... :(
[General Topics] maxpower097:
Easily. world population is in the billions. Thats just selling 28,000 units a day per continent. Thats 146,000,000 phones in 2 years. Way less then the population of adult americans. Then figure most people buy a new phone every 2 years. I'd say that number has a big chance of growing higher.
[General Topics] Monty Burns:
Your making some assumptions (and getting some stuff wrong).

There are between 5 and 7 Continents of the world.

http://www.countriesandcities.com/continents/

Second, your assuming everyone in the world can afford/choose to afford a new phone. Can you guess two countries where the majority of populations may not care about a new mobile? Not dificult, just work out two of the most populated countries on the planet (most of the cheap sh*t is made in them) -

Clues:

Chi... population of Chi...

Indi...Population of Indi..

So, out of around 7 billion, your down a significant portion. Now we also need to include Africa. And then not everyone in the UK will want a smartphone (and I imagine the same for every other "first world" country)

Remember, I also said "Choose". Many of my work collegues are still walking around with real simple mobiles because, and lets be real honest here, battery life on smartphones stinks. They will easily get a full week (including talking) on one charge. No smartphone will do that.

edit:

sorry, clarification, ofc I mean population being poor not the goverments of the countries. I don't think anyone in any sane state would accuse China's goverment of being poor!

I also doubt that 50% of Americans will have Android phones in 2 years (Population of USA (estimated) to be 310mi)
[General Topics] papabear:
Hopefully I can tinker with a newer android device, and have it work better. Like so many things the iFAIL (any of apples products really) is one of those trendy things that even a monkey could use.

But like the RIM software I dispised the first gen android os. Altho, I would take a crackberry any day over an iFAIL. WM powered devices I have had the most success with. I can definitely see why android is such a huge hit, especialyl since a lot of providers are offering lower priced Android devices vs the apple i FAIL, which is CANNOT be covered by insurance for physical damage or loss.

Hi,

Is anybody else having problems with Swype after upgrading to 2.2? I must mention I am not on the standard 2.2 (currently running DeVillain 1.0).

Every so often the keyboard will not respond once swyped and I have to change back to default and then back to Swype to fix.

Cheers

I currently have the latest cyan(minimal) with an oc 710 kernel by dumfuq (Thanks!) anyways...

I have over 50Mb left after the installation... i use about 10 more and now have 40 left over, i was wondering if any devs are willing to make it possible to use this 40 mb Rom as virtual Ram?! :confused: If thats possible.... I hate having to wait everytime to return home from an app because it was killed due to less ram!:mad:
[G1 Android Development] QDT:
Put a 32 MB swap file there and here you go.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I doubt anyone will help you kill your phone

but good luck with that
[G1 Android Development] ffff00:
Cyan is supposed to be adding the 'lock home app in memory' setting back.

Ander's method wasn't as great so he asked Cyan to put it back into CMSettings.
[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
Or maybe rather then fry your phone in a day or 2... try using a swap partition and Swapper2 from market?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
just use Auto Memory Manager and set secondary Servers to 6mb

or unpack , repack ramdisk into boot.img after editing the init.rc to put HOME in the same slot as a foreground app
[G1 Android Development] Killadude:
Its not "Home" I had the ram problems with... i use launcher pro it stays in the background... i had problems with using a radio app and a browser u cant really multi task withouth ram....

but i do realise how foolish that idea i put forward i totally forgot that rom had a set number of read writes...

BTW how do you guys find swap on the memory card i just bought a class 10 card, but havemt yet tried out swap on mmc...

hi i'm after a 16gb memory card but don't know what class to get, as cheap as possible but it must be from a well known manufacturer
[Desire Accessories] isaw:
Probably doesn't matter what anyone says - whichever brand person X stands behind, somenoe else will say it failed on them and to go for brand Y.

Having said that, I have a 16gb Kingston class 2 which has been perfect, cost about £25 or so when I got it. Recently picked up the same but a class 10. That one was about £80 including shipping as I wanted to see the speed difference, etc.

Not sure what others people will swear by. I don't swear by Kingston, but I have yet to have one go bad on me...
[Desire Accessories] TractorMatty:
And was the Class 10 worth it for speed?

I've used both Kingston and Sandisk in the past - and currently have a 8GB Class 6 Sandisk in my desire. It's been just fine.

I'd like to make the leap to a 32GB card, but I'm slightly concerned the Class 2 one available might have issues. (Although I've read many contradicting posts on that subject too!)
[Desire Accessories] isaw:
@TractorMatty

Between an older 16gig class 2 and the 16gig class 10 yes - galleries rendered much quicker, seemed more responsive, etc.

But between a class 6 and a class 10... meh. Not worth it at the moment.

I took the risk and tried the 32gb, online for $40au... failed miserably and still scarred by the copious time spent trying to copy, format, reformat, copy... with most ending up in the lost.dir (except for 1.2gb that ended up working).

Since then, have got a 16gb SanDisk. It's only a Class 2, but haven't had any issues with speed whether it be reading or writing. Avi's play in sync... Good bang for the buck.

Mind you, I only went for SanDisk because they were always good to me in the standard SD days, but have heard plenty of good word on Kingston and Lexar.

Hi my name is Jonas and i have a problem with my Xperia X1.

I bought this phone couple of months ago and was very pleased. Until the screen came loose and i had to take it to the store to fix it.

In the store they did a hard reset on my phone and all my settings are gone.

Now that's not really a big problem aside from this: I live in belgium (dutch speaking) and here we use azerty (my keybord is fitted with hardware azerty keys). but now i got it back the software uses qwerty! how do I fix this?

I tried putting country settings to Dutch (belgium) but this doesnt work, it still uses qwerty.

i downloaded a registry editor (SKtools) to change the keys, but i havent found a forum specifically about how to do this with a xperia X1. I tried some editings but none seem to be the one needed to fix this.

does anyone have a clear vision about this?

thanks and sorry for bad english
