[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Circaflex:
Hello Forums,

I am a new Evo user and i need some clarification regarding proper root. I got my evo last week sometime and the first thing I wanted to do is root. After some research i found unrevoked3 and used that to root. Next thing I did was nandroid backup then i flashed to a custom rom. Everything is running great but now I have a few questions.

By using enrevoked3 did i do a root and nand unlock? According to unrevoked's website

"unrevoked3 will permanently unlock NAND write protection by default on the following phones:

Sprint EVO 4G

Droid Incredible (HTC Incredible)

HTC Desire CDMA (HTC BravoC)

"

To me that means it does indeed do full root and NAND unlock, but heres another thread on XDA i found which has the last edit as Oct. 10, 2010 stating

"An important note for UNREVOKED3 users:

Unrevoked3 by itself is not a "full root" (read: root + nand unlock), and there is a very good chance that if you're not rooted with nand unlocked you may run into issues not only with this kernel, but quite possibly several features in other custom roms (as many features require nand unlock).

I highly advise fully and properly rooting your phone, complete with nand unlock."

How can i tell if i have NAND fully unlocked?

Hi,

I'm newbie and root my phone with roottools. After root I tried to intall a new room recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img with

fastboot recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img

now I cannot boot the phone or enter on recovery mode. The only thing I can do is to enter on fastboot and try to recovery from a image. I don't have a goldencard.

Sorry if I did not give enough information, like I said I'm a newbie and sorry about my bad english.

There is something I can do? Did I brick my phone?

Thnks,

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
First of all, wrong section. Moving to General.

Secondly, have you tried using a 1.7.0H recovery?

Third, you cannot fastboot anything because you need an engineering SPL. You see that S-ON? It needs to say S-OFF to flash anything by fastboot. I suggest reading instructions carefully before proceeding.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mmurad:
I allready made the goldcard, but I can't figure out which engineering SPL should I use. Can you help me?

you need the 1.76.2007 eng spl.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mumilover:
Since you have no system nor recovery you only option is a goldcard.

Just make sure that you use the right one!

Looking at the fastboot info you provided, you should use the H version of the custom recovery!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mmurad:
Just to make sure.

I already have the goldcard. Now I have to put the hboot-1.76.2007.img into it and update SPL.

After that I will be able to use fastboot command line and install Recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img to it.

From there I will be able to install a rom.

Those are the steps:

- Copy hboot-1.76.2007.img to goldcard renaming it to sappimg.nbh;

- HBOOT with the goldcard in it;

This will change my SPL to 1.76.2007 ENG S-OFF

- Shutdown;

- Copy Recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img to a spare card;

- Enter on fastboot mode;

- fastboot recovery Recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img;

- Reboot;

- Enter in recovery mode (home+power)

- Install a new room.

Is that right?

After that I will get:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FireMAN999:
Still trying to spin your fairy tale i see.

The build you are talking about is not overclocked to the MAX as you put it, unless you overclock it yourself.

The extra speed involved in this build is because data is not written to the SD card until the memory is full, unlike most other builds.

If you chose to overclock the cpu to the max and the phone gave up, then that's your fault, nobody else's.

Trying to discredit someone's hard work because you chose to go to the MAX and lost out is childish.

Nobody forced you to install a operating system that is not officially designed to work on the HD2.

You say you have bought another HD2.

I bet you install another android build on that one, what lucky builder is going to get the blame this time if that one breaks because you chose to go to the MAX because as you put it, your a quadrant score junkie.

Do the builders a favour and stay with WM if you and your phone cant take the heat.

So i got a friend with an HTC and Android 2.1, and i would like to use the Music player (google APS) that comes with his custom ROM, is that possible in any way?

[Vibrant General] Pacothebandit:
Hey guys, If you have been involved in this community for a while then you well know how developers feel about task killers. Many such as Cyanogen have spoken out saying they are useless and not good for the phone. Heck, even Google released a blog about how Android works.

http://androinica.com/2010/05/07/google-and-cyanogen-comments-imply-task-killermanager-apps-are-pointless/

So, is the stock task killer build into the J16 update going to have the same negative effect? I am wholly against task killers. I work in the industry and every time I am helping a customer or selling a phone I make sure they know the negative impact these have on a phone. But i want to know what you guys think. :D
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
Dev doesn't have problem with Task manger per se, they have problem with the "auto-kill" ability of some of the task manager in the Market.

I personally think JI6 task manager is cleanly done. It even tells you the CPU usage, so you can just kill of the "trouble" APP. It also doesn't show any of the system apps so, making it impossible to screw things up.

Plus, it's got other information that are helpful as well.
[Vibrant General] Pacothebandit:
True, it is that System app that can mess with crap. But what about apps that share processes with other apps?
[Vibrant General] microfire21:
Task managers are total crapware...well for the most part...auto killers are the plage avoid them...the bully in task manager seems to be okay for only one thing to kill an app that had locked up or needs to be reset...other than that its a waste of space and battery drain if you run the widget.

Sent from this mobile thinngy =p
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
All the widget does is tell you how many active apps are running. The task manager is welcome seeing as how even some built in apps don't allow you yo cleanly exit them and Android apps tend to consume large amounts of RAM.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
I think I've made it clear on my stance, but I will say the task manager on JI6 seems fine. The fact that it shows the CPU usage is the key part. And like others have said, it does not show system apps... just don't end the obvious ones that are syncing or widgets...
[Vibrant General] microfire21:
Well after running battery graph with and without the widget running...the widget takes 1% from the battery every 10 mins it runs...I liked the factor of seeing what was running in the bg but too much battery use on my stock battery...got a 3300 on the way...might use more widgets and apps after that but with this weak battery not going to use anything that eats battery away....btw running b 1.7 with voodoo lagfix

Sent from this mobile thinngy =p
[Vibrant General] kizer:
Personally I don't mind the Task manager. I had "Where" go bonkers on me and I didn't realize it. It was running 80% and my phone started to get hot. I killed the app and it returned to normal.

Never mind the fact that I started "Where" probably 15-20minutes earlier and it ate nearly 20% of my battery in the period with the screen off and sitting at the home screen.

Apps can go rogue and in my opinion thats when they should be used not because it gives you a false since of your saving battery power or to make room for other apps.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
wow. your phone consumes 20% even when it's not used?
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
Its cause the app was eating his battery up. Read please.

The widget does not use 1% battery per 10 minutes. Please make up something believable...
[Vibrant General] kizer:
Nevermind responded when I didn't need to.
[Vibrant General] dan0zone:
It's not a ' task manager ' as they call it, its a process manager... in the original vibrant Rom JFD , if you create a shortcut for the activity, 'running services' , it links to the same service... I don't use it but don't mind it as long as they never add an auto kill feature to it... I think it will also stop new users from getting app/task manager crap_ware from the market...
[Vibrant General] Emama:
I like it and i think its better than the task killer in the market,

At least it is not suggesting killing everything but showing how much CPU the app is using.

For sure, i won't put that stupid ugly widget in the desktop as it is really useless

hello guys!

my problem is popular on google but i don't see any one with my problems.

Anyway, i used my usb to connect and transfer some pics and some music.

Everything was OK until i unplugged my usb. PROBABLY WITHOUT UNMNOUNTING (on my mac). The message on my x10 is like this "preparing sd card. checking for errors"

I have tried to fix the problem by recovering the phone to fabric mode (?).

Anyway i just want to know how to fix this and i have tried a different card into my phone so there is no problems with the phone.

My comp doesn't recognize my x10 anymore. This is really frustrating and i can't use the sd card in the phone because it just restarts itself.
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
Try formatting the card and see if that helps.

[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
Use one of them to format it.
[XPERIA X10 General] azjay4u:
I actually have a similar issue. When connecting the phone to a mac via usb, upon dissconnecting the card becomes unreadable. I used an adapter to reformat the card to get it working again. I am no longer connecting via usb with my mac. Connecting from Bluetooth doesn't cause this problem. Best bet is to borrow/buy an adapter to reformat. Try not to connect to mac via usb as the card almost always becomes corrupt upon disconnection.

I'm currently aching to be able to play my own music through my car speakers, weird place for this yes.. if it's the wrong section to post this please let me know.

But, I was wondering if it's at all possible to feed the phone's audio through the USB.

For example, I have a USB port on my stero in my car, and when I plug it in..i'm able to feed off my SD card to play the music thats on it. But.. I'd like to be able to play pandora as well..which I'm currently unable to do.

Was wondering if this is possible. If i've confused you feel free to ask more questions :D
[Epic 4G General] wjsmaggle:
I don't believe this is possible. As far as I know, when you use the usb the deck itself is decoding the mp3's (or whatever music files you're using) directly. It doesn't support playing music through the usb, it just uses the usb to get the files. I hope that makes sense...
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
So is that why I ca never plat music on my xbox whenever I have a phone hookedup to charge? I thought my xbox just didn't play nice with phones
[Epic 4G General] ydoucare:
So your car stereo has a USB input but no auxiliary? If so, your best bet would probably be to get an FM transmitter. Like the poster above said, your car's stereo is merely mounting your phone as a mass storage device and reading the mp3 files off the SD card and decoding and playing them locally.
[Epic 4G General] a454nova:
It sees it as you do on the computer, just a drive. The only way to get what you want is to use a source from the phone that plays audio. Head phone jack or Blue Tooth. Your stereo... if it has USB should also have an AUX input or BT. Havn't come across to many that have USB and not an AUX or BT. Its nice though... having Pandora in the car.

If you tell me the Model of the Stereo I can help you out. I have seen a BT to FM Mod. Those are kinda cool. If your in a pinch with a stock stereo.
[Epic 4G General] XtaC318:
Makes sense. My stero does have an auxiliary port on it, but due to recent events I'm really short on cash lol, was wondering if there was a work around so I'm not limited to my sd for music.

Since it isn't possible.. what about an app that allows me to control the music played? I can stream music from the sd, but its got to mount to read therefore I don't have access to the stock music app. Only way to control what's played is the buttons on the stero and its pain staking..
[Epic 4G General] a454nova:
Nope... The phone isn't even connecting to your stereo. When you put it into USB mode so it can read the SD, it unmounted from the phone. Its as if you pulled the SD out and slid it into a card reader. When you pull the plug... It will remount to the phone. You'll notice it scanning for media at the top.

Now when you go BT... You can control it via the stereo or phone, using the Aux you can control it by the phone. "They" could make the phone controllable via USB like an Iphone but they would have to built that into the stereo like they do the Iphones/Ipods. Not likely to happen unless the Galaxy S takes off like IPOD did.
