Thanks.. see if you can step the progress up some then.

/jokes

Im sure everyone appreciates the hard work you guys do. However, you have to admit the initial post was misleading.

I didnt update my phone, it was either 2.2 out of the box or the Sprint store updated it before I picked it up initially. Its always funny to see the people this doesnt effect sit around and talk **** about the people it does. Im sure if the shoe was on the other foot, you'd be singing a different song.

I did kick a few bucks in on the bounty for 2.2 OTA root. If it comes to fruiton, I might kick in some more. IF the new phones have 2.2 preinstalled, this is something that needs to happen sooner than later.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mmastrac:
We were originally planning on shipping an hboot replacement, but this method is far better. This hack basically turns off the security flag of the device, allowing any unsigned code to be flashed from the stock bootloader and disabling the nand locks.

From an SOFF device you can also flash the existing ENG hboot without having to flash the whole ENG image and downgrading your PRI and wiping your data.

It's not that I'm demanding. I just want to know if that is what this post is about because if its not then I don't want to be wasting my time following. I do appreciate developers. I tried developing once, even had a great idea for an app. But it was too difficult for me and couldnt do it. I would like to thank all the developers in the world:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] lnchbx13:
shucks...

I was looking forward to rooting my wifes phone tonight...I guess I will just wait until they stop bricking phones...
[EVO 4G Android Development] aldojr:
They postponed the release because they are causing phones to explode. That's why i never used unrevoked. We need a double cheeseburger right now. Woww i am weird.http://twitter.com/unrevoked
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jim M:
That's too bad. :(

Later than sooner is better in some cases, like everyone that jumped on the 2.2 OTA update wishing they hadn't.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HeckNoTechnO:
Thanks for all your hard work. I know soon enough root will be avalible for 2.2. Thanks again to everyone work on this and other projects.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrmithdobbs:
It wouldn't be an unrevoked release without something getting bricked.

Too soon?
[EVO 4G Android Development] IRepTheKing:
Exactly... I have an unrooted 2.2 and I'm using Easy Tether until these guys come up with a way to crack 2.2. But best believe, this will be the last time I do an OTA without a way to root ever again.

UNREVOKED, keep doing what you are doing. Some of us really appreciate your work.

Show a pic of the newest hboot with s off. That's the hboot for 1.47.651.1...where's the .9 hboot with s-off
[EVO 4G Android Development] ivanxov3rx:
Well I'm in a weird predicament. Before when I rooted my phone via unrevoked3, I was running fine. I then jumped the gun and updated to the earlier version of .3 froyo. And now I just received my update for .6 froyo and have it, although I still have the superuser permissions app. I saw on other threads that there is a new root method called universal androroot. I downloaded it and ran it but it says I already have root and when I press the root button on it it says failed. When I try to use root apps, WiFi tether for example, it tells me I have root but then when I press to start Tethering it doesn't let me. I'm not requesting anything, I'm not whining, I'm not *****ing, I was just wondering if anyone else got this same issue and how they dealt with it. If their is a solution, I would like to know about it. Or if it is really that much of an issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mdwoods:
and you posted this in this thread why?

Nuff said... just saying...
[EVO 4G Android Development] benjio12:
Factory reset to get rid of the super user app glitch (or just live with it, either way it's not going to work) and wait for a root method that works with 2.2, and please please please post in Q/A next time. This thread is on unrevoked forever, not rooting questions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] im0rtalz:
For all the angry flamers this threaded wasn't even posted here by mmastrac he isn't the op for this thread. Be thankful he came into the thread to clarify on this issue. Just cause some of you purchasing new Evos and having it come with 2.2 still gives you no right to complain. Just be appreciative that this phone has so much dev support. Unlike some other phone *shudders* motorola backflip.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dallastx:
4g and wifi tethering please

All i ask is to please make sure 4g and wifi tethering actually works.......I love unrevoked but the main 2 features, we didnt have. SOme may complain but i think if you bought a EVO you bought it for 4g. Unless sprint told you your $10 was going to a charity event.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shadowmite:
from the sounds of what was just explained to us, with our soff method you would be able to still have your 1.40PRI. Fixing ones already downgraded however will take time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lwarranty:
Is that what the ten bucks was for, they told me when I said "what 4 g" - its for the additional bandwidth and/or service required to support the evo. I guess it must be a investment cause other than the killer evo - service is the ssdd.

As for the pulling the PRI - I don't think it will take long at all - from reading threads the plans are all ready in place.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kyleblakepeters:
So...not sure if anyone else has noticed this yet, but unrEVOked Forever is up at unrevoked.com I downloaded and followed the steps. All is well here on my Evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] adeyo:
as of now, unrevoked forever is delayed...you must have just downloaded unrevoked 3.1 (which is where unrevoked.com takes you) ...unrevoked.com/forever takes you to their twitter showing a delay for now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kyleblakepeters:
Bah, obviously wasn't paying attention to details.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
Lmao was like wow I didn't get any notice. Hahaha he rooted his phone
[EVO 4G Android Development] kyleblakepeters:
Phone was already rooted obviously! Anyway, last time checking unrevoked.com, I must have clicked a /forever link without paying attention, so went I revisited today and noticed a d/l link, I went for it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dbolot1:
So I might have a problem, I had cm6 latest nightly, downloaded Unrevoked forever and put the file in root directory changing the name to update.zip. tried to flash it but got error 7, (read the instructions afterwards :) ) did nandroid backup to 2.1 ( i had the whiteslack method of going back nandroid backedup). Then, flashed update.zip with no errors. But when I checked hboot, the version was still 76 and not 79. What did I do wrong? I am a noob so I apologize in advance if I am I a wrong section.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kthejoker20:
Unrevoked is not ready yet.

What you did wrong was click on the first download.

What till someone post's confirmed with instructions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Crotchety:
LMAO for days!
[EVO 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
yes you must be rooted first. Hopefull someone solves that issue. I would not be surprised if its them first
[EVO 4G Android Development] woofermazing:
I think its officially out. Just got a twit from unrevoked.
[EVO 4G Android Development] darkhova:
Out And Working my friend
[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
Does installing unrevoked forever mess with the current ENG bootloader? :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] darkhova:
The only Difference i see in the bootloader is that it says S-off now..Everything else looks and acts the same..The update was so fast it almost feels like it it didnt do anything cause everything looks the same (Minus the S-off) ..which is a good thing
[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
Thanks! it doesn't wipe the phone correct?
[EVO 4G Android Development] darkhova:
Nope just flash the zip and reboot and the S will be Off.....Crazy Simple
[EVO 4G Android Development] jminor4326:
went to Android market and downloaded Google Voice Search. It downloaded but would not install. the error message was something to the effect the signature was incorrect?? I installed Forever and have the signs (s off) that indicates this. I'm running Fresh 2.2
[EVO 4G Android Development] PlankLongBeard:
Well, everyone wasn't sure about this yesterday. Now neatly 3/4 of the forum slammed on it.

Thanks to all of you in unrevoked, cause if it wasn't for the forever unlock, many would have been right back to a stock locked phone.

Now we know, our phones are literally proof of concept, its our and there is nothing, literally that can take it away!

This Was Composed With Swype Via Evo 4G
[EVO 4G Android Development] htc_touch_mn:
I hope someone can assist and offer guidance.

I have a Rooted EVO, that a friend rooted for me. He however is now out of the country unreachable.

I know it is running Clockworks and the latest Fresh ROM but it doesn't seem to like Clockworks for updates, nor does the PRI update issue.

Can someone tell me step by step how to keep my existing apps and settings and install RA ANon and this unrevoked forever so I don't have any issues in the future.

I have done a Nandroid backup which is sitting in a Clockworks directory on my SD card.

Thanx

First off read this thread:

Next you need to choose your method of application.

I use better terminal emulator. The commands I presented could be prefixed by

"adb shell" if you are using adb

1) flash_image needs be accessible:

get from here :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=701835

(search for it. it is there in the first post)

put it in the root of the scard

2) place the recovery .img file from the first (top of post) link in the root of the sdcard

Inside of better terminal emulator:

type (do not include the quotes)

"su"

"cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/local/rights/flash_image"

"chmod 755 /data/local/rights/flash_image"

"flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-evo-v1.7.0.2.img"

(it spins here for a second or 2)

"reboot recovery"

The evo will boot into recovery check thee version on the bottom line

choose reboot and you're back.

You could post in the first link asking for help.
[General Questions and Answers] smurfgod:
I got a question about shipping internationally.

I shipped a phone on 8/5/2010 to a member on here from the post office via International Registered First Class mail. I have all my reciepts as well as tracking(RE423501448US) but it has not been updated since I sent it. Also, the buyer, hasn't complained..lol

Was just curious if anyone else has done international shipping and if this is the norm. I ust to seeing it updated at every stop and hopefully it's almost there. They told me 7-10 days. It's going to Brazil if that makes a difference.

Thanks folks.

~SMurf

Edit:

I will say, I had to use a marker, not a sharpie, to write the return/send addresses on the package and it sorta looked like crap. I hope it doesn't come back and I have to reship it..lol. If it does tho, then I'll know that the post office's markers are NOT for writing shipping labels on brown tape..lol

hey when i set up my background ist works fine but when im switching to landscape the background is not so good, how to set different backgrounds 4 portrait and landscape ???

thx 4 help
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Ethermind:
you must compile theme file.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Buff99:
S2v allows separately setting portrait and landscape without making a theme.....
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] bkk99213:
first set the landscape wallpaper when the phone is landscape.

and then use the portrait mode to set another wallpaper.

u can use any photo manager(example: resco photo manager)to do it.
[Desire General] GuestK00466:
hi all.

I seem to have read somewhere that you can boot a Desire in to a "Safe Mode"?

Is that correct? If so can anyone advise on how to do it? Alternatively point me to resources that explain a bit more?

In case you're wondering why I'm looking - I recently upgraded to Froyo. That led to my Desire only connecting to my local Belkin N1 Router with a static ip address. I want to see if there's something else getting in the way.

Thanks in advance.
[Desire General] yike:
Yes.

First take your sim card out. When you turn your desire on, press the menu button until you see the lock screen. And you are in the safe mode.
[Desire General] GuestK00466:
thanks for the info yike!
[Desire General] melhookv12:
How do you get it out of ' Safe Mode ' and back into normal mode !!!!

Not even power button alone works? If so, I would pull battery, put in SIM and start desire normally.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Aylarth:
I'm using the JM2 firmware version, it has a stock task manager built in, tho it doesnt have auto-kill function, but -as a linux user- you might agree with me that the linux isnt the OS that needs anything to kill processes, especially when its automated.

I've noticed the new ROM's mostly all seem to have it now. At least, I know the African/JG8 one did, I think the canadian I9000M one did, and the Aussie one did.

I found JM5 was the best choice, but probably best to wait for the next stable roms rather than using JM5 (as a few newies are coming out now). The new roms also all seem to be fixing the minor things

how can i use incredible's internal storage?

I can't find setting in camera config,only can select to card or phone memory,don't have internal storage option!

I do can find 2 removable disk in winxp form it.but i can only read/write the tf card.i can do nothing for the internal storage,include format,read,write!

how can i do?:confused:
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriskmk:
your phone memory IS your internal memory (in case that is not clear).

You can enable your internal memory by going to settings/applications/development and checking USB Debugging.

hope that helps.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnHi:
thanks a lot!

I check the usb debug mode,but my win7 report that can't find adb drivers!

where can i find the adb driver?:confused:
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magneticzero:
Dont enable usb debugging. Drag down the bar at top and go from charge only to usb storage mode.. windows should auto detect it as a usb drive and it will show your sd card as a usb drive...copy files over that way.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnHi:
But in this mode,my win7 can only find the tf card disk. I can not read/write/format the internal storage. win xp can find 2 htc disk,but also only can net do anything to the internal storage disk!

what can i do?:confused:
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timehunter:
Then you have something pretty tangled. I plug my standard DInc into my Win7 machine, and choose "Disk drive" mode and I see two disks mounted, one for the phone RAM and one for the SD card.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krelvinaz:
Likewise....

you can also use something like Astro and move files from the SDcard to the emmc (internal memory folder)
[EVO 4G General] lextildeath:
I just posted this in another thread, but I feel having its own thread is necessary.

Pasted from my post:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OK so inspired by this thread, I log into sprint.com to see what they officially say the $10 charge is. I think if we stick together, we can have them by the balls on this one.

"Premium Data:

- A wicked fast processor to make your apps run smoother and faster on our Sprint -3G and 4G network

- Top quality media experience with oversized screen, high resolution video and HD recording

- High-quality pics to snap and share with friends and family"

If you see this as I see this, Sprint is charging us $10/mo for the phone itself - not the service. We already paid for the damn phone! HTC is maker of the phone and sold it to us through Sprint. Both companies made money from the purchase of the phone.

Now Sprint is getting another $10/month from us because another company, HTC made an awesome phone.

I am no lawyer, but I have a feeling this contract just wont hold.

It is like buying buying an awesome sound system for your car with satellite radio built in, and having Sirius charge you $10 extra each month because the stereo plays Blue Ray, has Bluetooth, and gets rid of your blue balls.

We bought our phones for $199. And that is part of the contract. Charging us an additional $10 per month for the phone itself voids that contract. So, they try to say that they are providing the experience to us each month.

The agreed upon cost of the phone is a fixed one: $199. They are really charging you a mixed cost of $199 + $10x (where x = the number of months)

And in fact, they are lying by trying to tell us they are giving us this experience, when in fact the screen CAN NOT become less than 4.3" if we do not pay; the processor CAN NOT slow down if we do not pay; and the camera CAN NOT be less than 8 MP if we don't pay.

Who the heck is with me?!
[EVO 4G General] bobdude5:
all very valid points but im sure a bunch of people are going to come on and say dont be cheap or that its only 10 dollars a month or some other B.S.

I sent sprint a few emails 2 months ago saying exactly the same thing and mentioned how the nexus one and hd2, which both have good cameras and 1ghz processors, dont get cool feature charges, but they replied with a bs email as usual.
[EVO 4G General] 063_XOBX:
I don't recall the Nexus or HD2 having 4g, free 3g mobile hotspot, or having QIK, and they cost more than the Evo to buy flat out
[EVO 4G General] jkinnison90:
It sucks paying for it considering I still only get 1x where I live >.>.

Like literally 2-3 miles down the road, 3G kicks in. And in the other direction, about ~12 miles down the highway, 3G comes in.

Just finish the coverage already!!!!
[EVO 4G General] bobdude5:
and there it is
[EVO 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Yes it sure is, face it you were told about the $10 charge before you got the Evo and made the informed decision to purchase it anyway, then you had 30 days to change your mind. You didn't so shut up about it
[EVO 4G General] 063_XOBX:
I don't like the $10 additional charge anymore than you guys, but I (just like everyone who owns an Evo) decided I was willing to pay it to have one of the best phones currently available and because I (again like everyone else) made this decision I (and all of you) gave up my right to ***** and moan about it.
[EVO 4G General] gangsterholla179:
i agree its the morals. Sprint is takin us as fools..
[EVO 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Do you know what morals are? Perhaps you meant the principal, but even then you would be wrong Sprint offered a spectacular device, with an additional monthly fee that was made VERY apparent before you purchased the phone and you chose to anyway.

Seriously if you don't want to pay the fee then don't get an Evo (or Epic or any other 4g phone) otherwise shut up.
[EVO 4G General] Aridon:
There is plenty of competition in the wireless market.
[EVO 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Exactly! If you don't like Sprint's policy with the Evo then go somewhere else.
[EVO 4G General] sprink0281:
What about the unlimited data that comes along with the "extra" $10? I would not want to give that up For a tiered program....would you! That's my 2cents worth...
[EVO 4G General] Status Flow:
Despite what anyone says about it, their reasons for it are bull****. It being a premium device doesn't merit the $10 charge in addition to the data package, as there are other "premium" devices.

If they needed to charge more for it to recoup costs, fine. But don't ****ing lie to the actual intelligent consumer. That's not cool.
[EVO 4G General] 063_XOBX:
So far the other "premium devices" that are on other networks are on tiered data plans and still cost more per month even with the additional $10
[EVO 4G General] Status Flow:
That's not the point. Many people have chosen Sprint because of it being cheaper than the competition despite the "premium" bull**** charge.

The point is that they're flat out lying to the consumer not oblivious to the technology world (which I will admit is the minority, but that is no excuse).
[EVO 4G General] 063_XOBX:
They haven't lied in any way. They VERY clearly told you about the additional charge and you accepted it, now if they didn't say anything that would be a different matter entirely
[EVO 4G General] Status Flow:
I'm not talking about the charge itself, I'm talking about the reasons for the charge that Sprint gives. If that's not lying, it is deceiving.
[EVO 4G General] bobdude5:
they didn't lie, they gave a BS excuse, and yes my nexus one had free 3g tethering and now theyre changing our contracts and taking away our discounts.
[EVO 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Then feel free to use the "loophole" due to them changing your contract to leave Sprint like Aridon said "There is plenty of competition in the wireless market."
