[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Anyone with an idea plz lemme know this is so freaking annoying and when I factory reset it doesn't even install the market so that's not an option so I dunno wtf happened
[Kyocera Zio M6000] partytrikk:
uninstall it and install a different version. there were some posted a few pages back
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Yeah that's the one I used and still FC'S once dl starts.. anyone have the new market they could upload?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Also was looking I'm Google places and all distances are in kilometers how can I change this to miles?

help

http://support.sprint.com/support/a...20101004-144151#__highlight&id16=zio+firmware this shows the over the air update from sprint to sprint zio im kinda wondering do they have a manual update if we can get the update from sprint we could get the update and see how we could get crickets updated
[Kyocera Zio M6000] hotaru:
first we'd have to get the version of android that comes on the sprint zio working on a cricket zio. i made a rom that as far as i can tell should work, but it doesn't boot up all the way. it reboots over and over again. if anyone has any ideas how to get it working, #openzio on freenode is the place to help with it.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Ok so looks like taking back to cricket is my only hope! Damn I hate going there
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
Well that is the price of modding. Sometimes someone will do something they can not undo themselves and a trip back to the store is the only option...
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Ive only rooted it.. it was that Google pushed the new market to my phone an all it'll do now is freeze and FC.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
Mine is Rooted and the new market works just fine. I rooted it with Universal AndRoot.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LiuAnshan:
Same here.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Well now that I have a new fone the new market wrks but before it just killed my market so goodie for y'all and now mine works too
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
So how do I take midnight bowling and unit off again? I looked thru thread an couldn't find it

Edit: found it thanks
[Kyocera Zio M6000] aago1254:
hoping

im hoping on my trip back home i can find a old friend that works for sprint maybe they can get me a recovery image that they use to fix those broken sprint zios it kinda sucks that im not from colorado so it makes it hard to get anything. im starting to become friends with one 3rd party company with cricket they know me by name with me bringing flashed androids for cricket but i have a zio cuz i liked the look of the zio. maybe i can get them to get me a image ill see what i can do.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] aago1254:
i would love to get a copy of that rom you have maybe i can look at in sdk to see if there is somthing we can do
[Kyocera Zio M6000] seabhac:
So any word from our illustrious carrier, Cricket, or anyone else on weather or not we're getting a christmas gift of the new android system? or has Kyocera/Sanyo and Cricket just decided that all their customers deserve coal in their stockings and left us once again with 1.6?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] seabhac:
Does anyone know if Stewart Douglas Hutcheson is the current CEO of Cricket Communications in the US? I'd honestly like to see if we can start finding out who it is that's responsible for not allowing our Zio phone's to have the OS we've been promised when it's bene this long since the device came out. Someone needs to be held responsible and answer for their dissatisfied customers.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] xmicroman:
he lives in a castle with moat

Sent from my Zio using huge fingers
[Kyocera Zio M6000] seabhac:
ROFL does he got gaters in the moat? cuz otherwise I'm sendin in the black knight! but honestly I think people are so annoyed, pissed off and plain angry with Cricket and Kyocera at this point they are about form a brute squad and ,.. no wait wrong show,.. form an angry mob and storm the headquarters and put the CEO up on a cross upside down on the top of a bonfire!,...
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
Sounds like a plan to me, I'm down!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] XboxOmac:
Well, I've decided to move to Windows Phone 7 with the Samsung Focus. Im so irritated with CricKet. They dont even bother putting more cell towers here for a better reception. Im going to AT&T. *bleep* CricKet.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
OMG!! I just woke up and my phone upgraded itself to 2.2!

DAMN, WOOHOO, it's so fast, and the two finger zoom works in the browser :D YAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!!!!

[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
Once again, we are looking at "early 2011" not "late 2010". Don't expect it at the stroke of midnight on Jan 1 either. We are looking at best, a few weeks into 2011, most likely late January to late February (I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually March).

Zio Lag

I was having trouble with lag on my Zio. But I found a free app that makes my Zio work fast. I have not had to wait for a screen to load all day since I installed it. try it out.

AutoKiller Memory Optimizer

[Kyocera Zio M6000] damiandarkwater:
My friend was recently gifted a zio for Christmas. Could someone direct me to a rooting guide for his phone?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
I found out that Universal Androot works for me. Cant get it on the market. will have to download it from the web and install it on your phone. Maybe some one here has the link or just search the Forum for Universal Androot.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] killa619:
Thanks! This works great with the new adw ex,it actually makes it useable with minimal lag between screens.thanks again!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
No Problem. There is still a lag every now and then but not like before. Before I started using it I almost wanted to throw my phone into a wall. (I would have if I hadn't paid $250 for it)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
iHeart Radio

Does any one else have trouble getting iHeart Raido to work. Most of the time it just switches between buffering and connecting.

Any thoughts on this?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] s23bog:
OK, it's January, 2011. Where's my update?!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] hotaru:
they said the update would be Q1 2011. so if you don't have it by april, that's when you should ask that question. if kyocera is anything like htc, i'd expect it to come near the end of march.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] s23bog:
Relax, I was kidding.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jimrothwell123:
Happy New Year fellow Zio peeps

I work for Cricket and i was told around the middle of Feb. we should have a update to 2.1 at least there also testing out 2.2 and 2.3 :)

And as a side note check out my awsome home screen :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LordAnarchy:
Here comes the flame! Feb is my birth month! Aquarius ftw! I mean... I'll believe it when i see it, Mr. Cricket rep!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] killa619:
How did you change the time font?

Jimrothwell
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LiuAnshan:
I'll be pleasantly surprised if/ when we get an actual update instead of a bunch of talk. Although with the sprint zio already updated we should get some sort of update eventually, be it official or unofficial
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jimrothwell123:
i rooted my zio and used font changer then i chose a nice looking font. And to evreyone else when i get an official relase date (like a pdf from corp or something I'll post it)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
What are you using, home changer and theme?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jimrothwell123:
I'm using 1 click root, busy box, for the font its font changer lite, for my theme it ADW launcher EX with theme for sense, also have beautiful widgets with the C4RBON_FiB3R_Alloy skin and for the weather skin its ANDRODena_Weather_pack :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] dreamstryder:
I am running adwlauncher for donut right now and love it.... how does EX compare ????? having any lag problems and what extras does it have?????

Also I was running K9 for email but WOW its a bettery drainer..... I went from barely making it through the day without charging(and alot of times only getting 6-8 hours before having to charge with alittle bit of use) with it running to 2 days off the charger with some use (texting, market, calls, etc) as soon as I turned K9 mail off..... is there ANY good email programs out there that will not kill the battery so fast?????
[Kyocera Zio M6000] gregnotcraig:
Try Maildroid. I've been using it and am very happy with it.

It's got some "random features" (new mail notification doesn't always go away when you select it in the notification bar - a "clear" takes care of it, though) but it is actively developed and bugs get squashed and features get added.

It's very configurable and w/ the multiple mailbox support, I've disabled the gmail sync in the OS altogether.

Also try Autokiller Memory Optimizer.

It's not a task killer (evil!), but rather it tweaks the INTERNAL Android OS memory/process management settings.

If you're a linux geek, look at it as an app that lets you "renice" services and applications without actually killing them.

I've used it with great success. My battery - with HEAVY text, twitter and internet - will last a day or more longer than it did before i installed it.

If you do install it, be sure to read the FAQ (each tab in the app has it's own faq), as it explains exactly what it does
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Kebamishima:
I've just finished reading this whole thread from start to finish, gotta say I like what I see, from the looks of it, this phone has good potential. Also what are the benefits to having clockworkmod? It a better question would be wth does it doo??
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Kebamishima:
Also, any good apps for the zip? I'm a big gamer, i likr rpgs, already have zenonia...
[Kyocera Zio M6000] s23bog:
HELP!!!

Installed Tweak utility, and accidentally enabled "display cpu usage". Zio went into an irrecoverable reboot loop.

How do I do a Factory reset or repair?!

EDIT: Crisis averted. Installed SDK and executed fastboot -w. Was freaking about a bit, my apologies.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] turbo_1327@yahoo.com:
i have kyocera zio 6000 want to root and tether it ive read thru here but mine wont d/l 1 root clik for starters any help? tyia
[Kyocera Zio M6000] rosco77:
You need to find the universal androot apk file using your computer then put it on your sd card and install it on your phone that way. Then it should work. As far As tethering goes I can't help you there.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
try using barnacle wifi tether,thats a good one but it needs root, ones that don't need root is pda net also to root your zio, try using z4root, that worked the best for me when i had the zio just go to google and search for z4root.apk download and you will find it
[Kyocera Zio M6000] turbo_1327@yahoo.com:
thanks for the help much appreciated :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jimrothwell123:

Zio flash

I want to know if anyone has had success in flashing the Zio to work on MetroPCS. I live in Florida now and I cant get a local number from Cricket because this is not a Home area. I dont want to spend the money on a new phone. I want Metro but I want to use my Zio with them.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
Has any body thought to buy the sprint zio and flash it to cricket....
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LordAnarchy:
oooooooo.... ice cream 2.4. Someday we will get that. Is there any major reasons that cell companies hold up the updates? Are the tailored to every specific phone? Cricket.... If I were running it, i would have my customer running the latest firmware to show i care about the money they spend.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
Every phone has to have its own version tailored for it. Also every carrier has to do some adjusting for their own network and their own apps. For instance, it was not just a matter of taking 2.1 off of Sprint's Zio and putting it on a Cricket Zio. For some reason, that just wasn't going to happen that way when it was tried and gave the developers who tried it months worth of fits.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] xmicroman:
Camera on 2.x

Hopefully the camera will be faster? I had a i910 on windows mobile before this the camera was 2MP larger but geeze if i click it takes at least a second to hear the shutter sound. Or am I missing something.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jimrothwell123:
Zio update :)

just got off a confrence call cricket customer's will be getting a text message from cricket with a link/directions on how to upgrade to 2.1 " very soon, as they siad" , with a future update by end of Q2 maybe Q3 to 2.2 maybe 2.3.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
That make no sense. I thought Cricket change to updating to 2.2? Everything that I have been see coming from Cricket has been saying 2.2 in Feb 2011 for the Zio!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
This is in direct contradiction to another post someone made with their "e-mail from the FCC" in which Cricket states they will not distribute Android 2.1 over their network.

Seems one of the two is just having some fun...

I know, when you get the link, you can post it here. That way we will know for sure.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
The Cricket Facebook page verifies Android 2.2 update is coming.:

Zio 2.2 when????????????????

Cricket Wireless: It's in the works. We'll be sure to post an update when we have more details to share. Thanks for your patience.

about an hour ago ·

This is something anyone can go on Facebook and see for themselves:

http://www.facebook.com/#!/cricketwireless
[Kyocera Zio M6000] dreamstryder:
the only part of this that might be nice is if they send a link to upgrade the phone.... that way the developers will be able to take an unmolested cricket package and see exactly the installer routine which seemed to be the major problem in making a custom rom for the zio in the first place.....

other then that for the rest of it.... it will happen when it happens and I am tired of all the guessing :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jimrothwell123:
zio update

best i can do is a screen shot "kind of of one, of the internal post":D
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
That doesn't look like anything official to me lol.

Maybe when you get the link, you can post it here for us.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
All ready have the update tool on my phone.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
Everyone has it on their phone, the "Update" feature comes standard in Android and is one of the items customized for each phone.

I noticed it on my phone the first time I booted up and went into the "Settings" section.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] deathsled:
lmao, they'll say anything if they think it will get you off the phone....
[Kyocera Zio M6000] dexter35803:
Ya but no mms yet
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LordAnarchy:
I wonder if Cricket has plans for more Android-powered phones. Requests? Droid Bionic
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
Are tablets even sold through cell phone companies or is this a pant load like everyone else in this thread that says "a company rep told me..."
[Kyocera Zio M6000] azsnakes:
Link doesnt work
[Kyocera Zio M6000] rosco77:
Tablets are sold though cell phone companies. T mobile recently started selling the samsung galaxy tab. It looks pretty bad ass and if I'm not mistaken it runs on android 2.3
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LordAnarchy:
Phase out the zio? Well, thats one part already accomplished. Tablets are sh%*. Droid phones. Tablets and netbooks, basically bringing old and slow. I have a notebook with windows ME. 200 bucks.... anyone interested? DVD drive and USB ports so you can feel superior to the ipad, tabs, netbooks, and all that useless crap.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LiuAnshan:
Maybe if it didn't have ME on it, ME would ruin the whole experience.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] rosco77:
Anything made by Microsoft sucks. That's why I chose ps3 over xbox.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jimrothwell123:
cricket tablet

this is the tablet that Cricket will get in Q2-Q3 its a Huawei
[Kyocera Zio M6000] gtnunit:
clockwork recovery image

Has anyone given this manual clockwork recovery image a try?

koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image
[Kyocera Zio M6000] rosco77:
Some people say they have figured out clockwork recovery on the zio. I don't advise messing with it unless you really know what you are doing. I tried to do it manually and somehow flashed my phone to verizon. Needless to say I freaked out, couldn't get it back. I managed to convince them at the corporate store that the phone did it on its own and they reinstalled the os and fixed the problem.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] gregnotcraig:
search the thread. clockwork has already been ported to the cricket zio (see my sig?)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LordAnarchy:
Tablet, ok. But no future android phones for cricket?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] xmicroman:
Looks to me from all the info you included, that your still trying to sell yourself. All I know is that the Zio has a faster processor and better screen resolution. Believe it or not, I think what your seeing is the improvements in 2.1 over 1.6. Good luck and don't let the door hit your ASSend on the way out.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
I've started an IRC channel on freenode for the open development of the ZIO, in hopes to get more people interested and on board with O.D. for this device.

It'll also help in sharing ideas, methods, information faster and more efficiently. :)

irc.freenode.net

#openzio

Cheers all.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] xTONEx:
too bad the chan is empty :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
Just registered the channel m8, and I don't keep my computer on 24/7, so it's bound to be empty from time to time until there is a userbase. ;)

Good to see you there. :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
Just an FYI if it's useful..

The MSL# on the Zio is "000000"
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
Would this work/help to get the EPST info?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7414219&postcount=4

Seems to be running the Qualcomm MSM7627.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
I tried ##debug# which brings up a debug menu, but it pops up and says "Enter ACCESS CODE"

Does anyone know what that is? MSL doesn't work.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] stigs1280:
Try 777468.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
Sweet, that worked. Thanks.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
Havent tried that route yet. I'll give it a go this afternoon.

LoL about the MSL code. Picked a real hard one there, didnt they? hehe

Stop by #openzio, lets get a think tank started here. ;)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
Just tried QPST and it successfully read all info from the phone, BUT (theres always a but) some of the values entered when taken from the phone are invalid, so it makes it real hard to navigate, and I would assume (since I've not written anything to my phone) those value errors would also make it hard to impossible to effectively program the phone via QPST. But for reading values? Great!!

Good Job though m8. :D

Can anyone else confirm that this works?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] mxvris:
Ok, so I'm new to android, not new to computers/hardware. I've had my ZIO rooted since 1/2 hour after having it (wifi tethering is nice to have)

I've got both QPST and QXDM on my computer poking around at my phone, but to be honest i haven't the slightest idea of what I'm doing. With what I have going on is there anything I can pull from the phone that might help with making a custom ROM?

I may brick my phone here if I get antsy enough. lol
[Kyocera Zio M6000] xTONEx:
crickets msl's were/are always 000000 :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
I thought some had either 333333 or 666666 but I could be confusing that with some other phone I flashed to cricket
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
np m8. I myself haven't dabbled in phone programming either and am also new to android (in a way). The majority of my experience lies in the development of alt. OS and software for Archos 5 systems, which have ARMv7a cpu's.

But Im a quick learner, as most of us here are Im sure. :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
I am not sure why everyone thinks you have to root this phone to tether it. I used PdaNet to successfully tether my Zio to my Toshiba Satellite laptop without rooting. Is there something I am missing with this?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] mxvris:
i guess there isn't a reason until there is a custom ROM made. Maybe I'm just waiting in anticipation? lol
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
exactly. :) Its like grabbing your fork before the plates been set down. ;)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] awe215:
Rooting is for wifi tether

Well, you can physically tether without rooting but if you want to wifi tether you need to root your phone. Yay! We're all right. ;)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
The way the battery on this thing drains while using wifi and data, I would certainly want it physically tethered to keep it charged, but I understand to each their own.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] wwwilly1986:
Just read that Sprint is supposed to be getting the Zio soon, on 2.1. When this is released will it be possible to grab the rom to use for our Cricket version? I understand it will need to be tweaked to be on Cricket's network, but just a thought?!?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LordAnarchy:
Ooooo.... cups and strings here I come! Sorry to see a Zio owner go. Bought my gf the ascend. It is smoother and i do prefer the physical buttons over the touch butons for home and stuff. Phone does feel solid. Still prefer the light and slim profile of my zio. Huawei is making a name for itself. I like the comet.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LordAnarchy:
According to PCMag, the LG Optimus and Huawei X5 as well as one other phone not shown will come soon. The Zio, according to the article is slated for Froyo 2.2 "soon".
