s off is tmobs response to....

The "companies" wanted s-off due to the large number of brix getting returned for handest exchange and assurion claims, just to figure out somebody pooched sumthin up trying to be a HAXOR, if you haven't done anything like this before. Id suggest peeps get a g1 or some other root & rom-o-matic type for and play with it till you take on your brand new handset trying to install some bleenin edge hack...

You gotta learn to wank off before you can try it with somebody else in the room.

I remember my early days at xda, hacking my mda, xcaliber, and esato hacking SonyEricsson fones before they jumped the shark. People who had the ability to read and follow directions (emphasis on the read part) would study till they were sure they would still have a working fone at the end. Hung out and did great stuff with there handsets. And the noobs were wary enough to investigate before they just started mucking about.

So the handset manu. Had to do sumthin and now we have s-off.

the moral of my high and mighty rant an rave, if you don't know how to do sumthing or if you understand what to do but not the why, then keep reading, read more do less

In the newest builds they have 2.1 system on the phones system partition and froyo system on the phones data partition. The data is moved to the SD. 2.1 and previous Rome had no problem with extra partitions on the sdcard.froyo changed the way it mounts the sdcard and could only see 4.

I am actually releasing a dual boot method very shortly that should work on any android phone with very little setup required on your part. I am in the process of finalizing it. Anyone interested in testing please let me know as I want to test on as many devices ad possible
[myTouch 4G General] allen099:
I've been doing alot of thinking the past 24 hours about what this Fast Boot option is and I think I've come up with the answer.

Fast Boot (available in the Settings > Applications menu) is nothing more than a deep hibernation phase for the phone. What initially got me thinking about this is the inability to power the phone off in fast boot mode and then access recovery when powering on. I discovered that when unchecking Fast Boot, the phone takes a bit longer to power down as well, and from there I was able to access recovery (with a very unflattering size 18 font).

Another test of mine, and this was the fun one, was installing Paul O'Brien's Visionary to temp root. It was successful as I was granted SU access in Android Terminal Emulator. With Fast Boot checked, I power cycled the phone and it did it's magical 3-second power on. I tried to get SU access via Terminal and...it worked! When unchecking fast boot and power cycling, I had to re-root the phone.

Perhaps these findings can help these awesome hardcore devs with creating a workaround for creating a permanent root solution. So the bottom line is unless you need to access recovery mode, keep your phone with Fast Boot on, and you won't lose root!

Is there a way we can flash the leaked rom through fastboot or recovery. Deleted peep and Some other tmobile stuff trying to get back in case of update. I'm still on 2.2.

Never Mind I figured it out. Fastboot oem and the fastboot the Rom. It was the longest flash ever but I got everything back.

* Download fastboot from here

* Extract the fastboot zip to the same directory as the ROM

* Turn your 4G on with the action button held (fastboot mode)

* Type 'fastboot-windows oem rebootRUU' (case sensitive, replace windows with mac or linux as required)

* Type 'fastboot-windows flash zip PD15IMG_Glacier_TMOUS_1.14.531.1_Radio_12.28.60.140e_26.03.00.04_M2_release_152476_

signed.zip

* Let this finish, then type 'fastboot reboot' and apply the OTA

This worked for me. It isn't necessary to download fasboot if you already have it extracted in the tools folder of your android sdk. The commands were easy, it was the flash that took awhile. Also you will have to apply visionary root first to get into bootloader from your computer.
[myTouch 4G General] allen099:
I'd hesitate to start modding without Clockworkmod or another Recovery system. I haven't tried using RomManager yet...does it detect and install for this phone?
[myTouch 4G General] kamasi36:
Yeah if you don't know what you're doing you should wait on the unrevoked team. This method is a fix for anything removed by people who know how to use adb and fastboot to their original factory rom. There isn't any way that I am aware of that will allow us to overwrite the system and flash anything other than stock signed rom by way of the above.
[myTouch 4G General] HamNCheese:
Of course it did. Here's why...

When you do a "fast boot" it is similar to hibernation on x86 - meaning the memory contents is written to "disk" and restored via the bootloader of the OS. This works the same way on Linux, Windows, OS X, etc.

The MyTouch 4G is the same. When you root the phone with Visionary (or manually with a forkbomb exploit), you are re-mounting /system as r/w. From this point on, Linux is caching writes to "disk" (which are never happening.) This is the so-called "buggy" behavior of the eMMC (though I would argue it's very much deliberate, and not a bug at all.)

Now, when you hibernate, the entire contents of RAM is written to r/w storage, including the filesystem cache. When the RAM image is restored on power-on (fast boot), the cached changes to /system are restored along with the rest of the memory state of the device at that time. You will also find that the same background apps are running, just as you left them as well.

While this is interesting (for now), all HTC has to do is drop the Linux cache (either periodically via cron, or during the fast-boot init) and the changes would be reverted. Frankly I'm surprised they didn't do this already, since it would essentially kill our soft-root once and for all.
[myTouch 4G General] floepie:
If they dropped the cache during fast-boot, shutdown would require a longer time to write the changes to /data - either that or if the cache were flushed at fastboot-up, it wouldn't be able to "boot" up so quickly.
[myTouch 4G General] floepie:
Are these instructions your own or are they re-posted? Is the action button the same as the menu button? I assume that if fastboot were turned off on the phone, none of these changes persist, i.e. bloatware deletions, beyond a full reboot?

Also through kies is it formating the sd card?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HarpingOn:
I suspect those getting JPA had installed FroYo via Kies nordic hack which changed their product code to XEE. I installed JPO via a different KIES hack before changing my product back to XEU.

I'm using JPO now, before I had JP6.

using oclf and almost done with installing all my apps.

Tried JPA 2 days ago (odin) but I messed something up so had to redo it.

and compairing JPA to JPO I would now say that JPO seems quicker.

[Epic 4G General] mousiluck:
Ok so I was thinking, if froyo isn't being released for the epic, but the samsung tablet is coming out with 2.2 would it be possible to just take the kernel and everything necessary to run 2.2 on the epic. And maybe write some other scripts and things to make it work? Or is that just too impossible? If so I think I might be able to stop by the sprint store that my buddy manages and use their equipment to pull some things.

Apologies for posting in the wrong section if I did.

I think that Samsung has promised Froyo on all Galaxy s variants to date. The problem is that we will likely be the last to get it.:-(

The real question is Gingerbread. I suspect that the sheer volume of Galaxy S subscribers globally will get it, but because we don't have the numbers, we may not.

They only promised Froyo, unless you have sources that we don't have. Gingerbread is still uncertain.

It looks like the community may have to do it. It shouldn't shock anyone really. Either we won't get or when we get it, it will be so late that the next version of Android will be out.

I just watched a couple of videos regarding the Notion Ink Adam and want the next developer phone (Nexus X) to steal a couple of ideas from them. If you watch the video below it shows what they are.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPowc1yM0NQ&feature=player_embedded

Also, please press the red button on this link (http://inception.davepedu.com/) before you read each number.

(#1) - The screen. The screen goes into some sort of b&w monochrome display in the sunlight :cool: to negate the glare and increase readability.

*Bonus, it saves on power consumption too.

(#2) - The camera. The camera swivels 180 degrees thus negating the need for 2 cameras, one front and one back. It's not like we use them at the same time anyways, amirite?

(#3) - The trackpad. The backside trackpad is a great idea in and of itself.

OK ive been looking and looking for a simple solution.

everyone knows about the robotic voice on HD2 when you get android. ive been searching old links and posts but most of it doesnt work, people say use miri, i dont really even understand what miri is. but i dont want any WinMo, i like using android on my phone, i was wondering if someone could just point me in the direction of a android build that doesnt have a robotic voice or a simple solution. Please dont be rude, ive been looking for maybe weeks, i would just like some help. i dont really mod my phone much so anything that is simple or helpful will be greatly appreciated.

You`ve searched for weeks and never stumbled upon something like :http://www.google.ro/#hl=ro&source=hp&biw=1440&bih=645&q=android+robotic+voice&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&fp=d194facf2c53bcbc

I sincerely doubt that...

Then again, there are three main reasons you are having problems with your audio part.

1. You fail to run CLRCAD.exe before HaRET.exe;

2. Your radio is causing these issues;

3. Your ROM (WinMo ROM, NOT Android build!) is causing these issues;

Make sure you first run CLRCAD.exe, then HaRET.exe. If this is done and the issue is still present, try and flash another radio version, such as 2.10 or 2.12 (try some and see which fits you and your surroundings best). If this is taken care of as well and the issue is still present, try and use another ROM (the more basic it is, the better; I`m using one which has absolutely nothing but the old WinMo 5 interface, so it boots in about 4-5 seconds).

Good luck and please refer from posting such "famous" questions before using every option you have available.

Also, as I have mentioned before, make sure to manually run CLRCAD before HaRET (at least for the first time) so that you can be sure this is not causing it all. Keep me posted, I look forward to hearing from you. :)

Is this meant more as a historical episode guide, or a current episode/TV Guide type of application?

The reason I ask , is I was looking for just such an app last week (The current and upcoming episode type), and found one that works rather well and seems well polished already..

It's called "TV Show Favs" and has the ability to flag shows for your own listing, see upcoming schedules by day, get episode synopsis, guest stars, and you can even look up any show, and look at it's historical episode info.

http://www.appbrain.com/app/tv-show-favs/com.tvshowfavs

Not that having another app isn't fine... but you might want to see if you can differenciate your app vs this one in some fashion.. your screens look very nice already, but as a user I'd ask myself "What can this new app do that my current one cannot'.

Good luck on the development though...
[Android Software Development] demonreeper:
@DroidGnome

This is more like a historical episode guide, but i do plan to implement upcomng schedules and other features as well.

I did come across that after i started developing this and that app is quite nice already.

What i did not like about that however is the need to register and use an online account,

my application was developed with mostly offline mode in mind.

The only time data network is used is to update the stuff.

However to really get a good idea about the app you would have to try it, so i will try to upload a beta version here soon.

correct. Once the card is formatted for the phone, it can only be used with the phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Ren13B:
Huh? You cant even format it after using it on the phone? Maybe Windows will fail to format it but there has to be a way to get it formatted again. They can't brick your card.

Common sense prevails once again!!!
[Windows Phone 7 General] IM0001:
That would be my first guess.

I guess what is surprising me is for how long the phone has been in preview and in devs hands, why in the hell are so many features that are probably in the phone or are questioned to be in it, not being found already? God the first thing I do when I get a new gizmo is to search every nook and cranny of every option and setting. A good example is this and how NOBODY has tried it yet with a replaced microSD from an HD7, and how long it took for somebody to find a way to add your own ringtone. (Its right there in the Zune Hub!?! Who Knew!?!) lol

Seriously If I had a device at any point before/at the release, I could have easily found answers to a lot of questions that have been asked. Sadly with real life not landing me a job as a website tech reviewer or dev I get pushed to the back of the line. Not to toot my own horn but I really do feel like a fairly high quality QA person. I may not be able to write my own code, but I can poke and play with yours till I find all the bugs and all the features. :D

Anyone with a loner HD7 wanna throw it my way for test and analyzing purposes until I can get my hands on my own Sprint HTC 7 Pro? I can probably provide some really useful feedback and quality video that could easily rival a lot of these sites.
