you want to use unrevoked 3. it is super easy. good luck. i would recommend your first rom being myn's warm twopointtwo rls4. love it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayStation3:
I read a thread earlier about NOT FLASHING the radios...whats this about? Should I be worried about it using unrevoked? I will search for the thread again and post a link to it here - but it was along one and I may not have read all of it correctly... Will unrevoked flash the radios?? or do I have to do some thing else after root to make that happen?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayStation3:
Also by using unrevoked3 - will this allow me to Tether and will I still have 4G and what not? or will i need to load some thing after to make all that work?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jbcarrera:
Unrevoked won't flash the radio so its cool

JayStation3, I will be waiting to see your results, and if you dont mind laying out the process you went through, this must have been a miracle to find someone with the same setup, especially in this time of constant change. Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayStation3:
ROOTed!! YAY!!

Well I am now the proud owner of a brand new rooted EVO :)

I just used unrevoked 3, (which was pretty easy - it does all the work for you). After I rooted - I installed Titanium back, root explorer, quickboot & ROM manager...

I backed every thing up and followed this thread...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=710513

Then I flashed the "Ra-evo-v1.8.0" recovery through the HBOOT screen (went in to recovery there and flashed it - how ever I had a few ppl suggest I could do it through ROM manger - But I didnt figure that one out yet...)

Then I made a NAND back up with the new recovery...

Now I am trying to figure out which ROM i want to flash... the stock ROM is actually pretty glichy and the touch screen isnt as responsive as it was...

Can any one tell me when it is needed to clear the cache/ delvich (or what ever it is)?? I know I saw a video in it - but I cant find it any more...and Im not sure if I need to do it my self, or if ROM manger does it for you - or what... Does that need to be done when you flash a new ROM or am I thinking of some thing else? -
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayStation3:
Oh yeah & I Copied ALL my files from my phone onto my computer, in a folder with the date as the name under and Android folder :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roscoenr:
you need to wipe the cache/ delvich before you flash a new rom. you can use rom manager to wipe it IF you are using clockwork recovery but this is where that question of if clockwork is doing its job comes in. to wipe it you power up in recovery and there will be the option there
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayStation3:
Cool... Thanks... Also just to give an update, my 4G DOES work... For those that were wondering earlier... Gonna test my tether right now...

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayStation3:
Ok, not sure what Im doing wrong with Tether - but it connects to my computer - but has limited access to the internet...which basically means - NO access at all... It says its an "unidentified network"... im gonna search around a lil bit to see if there is a TUTORIAL to help me set it up... any input is appriciated
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosfanatic2006:
I heard that the Unrevoked method was not a permanent root. Like if you reboot the phone, it won't be rooted anymore. Is this true?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jbcarrera:
Only on hboot 2.02 witch you shouldn't use unrevoked on anyways since it could cause major problems

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
What tether are you trying to use? The sprint hotspot or wireless tether app? The sprint hotspots is only unlocked in certain roms (warm two point two is one of them, and my favorite) if that's what you're using, it won't work. Use the wireless tether app, available in the market. I suggest flashing the rom. I mentioned, and you'll have everything you need, cooked right into the rom. Good luck

Flash a pre rooted kernel. This forum is full of them, or look in the sticky wiki for a rooted stock rom.

Sent from my spot on the earth.
[Epic 4G General] bnl552:
Correct me if I'm wrong but you can't flash a rom unless yo are already rooted so this would not work. Right?
[Epic 4G General] deciple:
No, you can flash a rooted rom without being rooted, however you need clockwork recovery.

Sent from my spot on the earth.
[Epic 4G General] bnl552:
Don't you need root or a computer to install clockwork?
[Epic 4G General] deciple:
Download rom manager, then use rom manager to download clockwork mod, then use astro which is a free app available in the market which is very useful, to open the sd card folder, then go to clockwork mod folder then copy recovery-update.zip and paste it to the root of your sd card and rename it just update. It's already a zip file so you don't have to type.zip. Now reboot into stock recovery and apply update.zip. Does not work with froyo. But if you down load the clockwork redirect, then you can install that once you get into clockwork recovery after you flash a froyo rom before you reboot. But using adb to flash the permanent clockwork kernel is the best way.....try this......update.zip method:

1. boot into ClockworkMod Recovery

2. Apply : http://www.sdx-downloads.com/devs/noobnl/clockworkmod2.5.1.0update-fixed.zip

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nachodeh:
Sony Ericsson includes a custom calendar application with its' Android phones and it is extremely limited, ugly, and slow.

I found the default Calendar.apk for Android and ran it on my phone, but all I got was "Installation not successful"

How can I run an apk as root from the phone?

Cheers
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nachodeh:
I finally figured out how to do this...

You will need a rooted device, adb installed on your computer, and the stock calendar application, attached here.

On your phone uninstall Calendar and CalendarProvider. Using Titanium Backup or some other app makes it easier.

Then go to phone Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications and delete:

com.android.calendar

com.android.calendarprovider

Connect the phone to you computer in debug mode and launch a terminal.

adb install /pathToFile/CalendarProvider.apk

adb install /pathToFile/Calendar.apk

You're done
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pbezza:
Is the stock Android calendar different for each android device?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] spence91:
Has anyone else tried this?

Very keen to get rid of the stock calendar application, it's really bad.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pbezza:
I would try this however I need to find the stock Android calendar first.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nachodeh:
The stock calendar app is now attached to the previous post
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bootchee:
If I replace this calendar app with the stock app from SE, will I retain my calendar entries? I should expect so since it is based on Google Calendar right? Just asking to make sure, thanks in advance.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nachodeh:
Google stores the data so don't worry about it.

But remember you are replacing the Sony Ericsson app with the Android stock app.

Cheers
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] x10bravia:
were you successful in replacing the SE calendar app with android stock?

is it stable?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jeffroiscool:
I would like to know this as well. I really want a decent calendar and sync it with my outlook.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nachodeh:
just follow the steps and it'll work.

it's stable and faster than the default app. cheers
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] x10bravia:
thanks for the response.

i'll definitely do it this weekend.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] x10bravia:
this must be for 1.6.....

i have 3 default calendar apps here in my 2.1....

calendar, calendar bridge, and calendar storage....

and can only find calendarprovider.apk in the system/app folder...

should i delete all 3? and replace them with the attached calendar and calendarprovider?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nachodeh:
This is for 2.1

I think it's safe to delete those apps since I don't have them and the phone works. Then install the attached files.

cheers
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] benjymous:
I tried this yesterday - I just got an "Incorrect version" error when I tried to install the stock apps. I tried manually copying them to /system/app/ but the phone didn't pick them up (no icon in the launcher)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] j2sun:
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE] on my mini (not pro). Now my calendar is broken :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nachodeh:
That happened to me at first.

You need to remove "com.android.calendar" and "com.android.calendarprovider" before installing the new calendar. Are you sure you did this?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] benjymous:
Yup. That's exactly what happened with me, too. I copied back the SE calendar apps to /system/app and chmod'd them to 644 and rebooted, and got the SE calendar back. If you didn't back those up first, there's a copy of all the system apps on the forum somewhere.

(I deleted everything with "calendar" in the name from the /system/app folder, along with the corresponding data from /data/data/, rebooted, and tried installing the supplied apks, from adb, via a file manager, and by directly copying to /system/app/ and none worked.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nachodeh:
That's weird. It works perfectly on my phone with Android 2.1

I PM'd the mod in charge of such things (so I was informed) but received absolutely no response. I think it's rather rude to completely ignore the request just because the phone isn't released in the US. There are a few Americans working with us on getting this phone more supported in the modding community and since this *is* the largest modding community for such devices the lack of action is really holding things back.

We have Clockwork Recovery, overclocking *and* an SBF to restore to - let us have some fun with our MS2's!

[EVO 4G General] mylasthope:
I just picked up two new phones, an evo and an epic, and I was considering getting ERP for each phone. Should I get TEP instead since Sprint changed its repair policy and no longer honors the manufacturer's warranty?
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Y do ppl keep saying they don't honor the many warranty?
[EVO 4G General] Joshr:
Not sure what Sprint does but HTC will obviously honor the warranty. Send it to them and they'll fix it for free as long as its covered under the free one year HTC warranty.
[EVO 4G General] clamknuckle:
Yeah, send it to them at your own expense, and wait 5-10 business days to get it back.

It also better be in pristine condition, or they won't cover it.

As far as getting TEP vs ERP. If you don't have TEP, it's 35 bucks in store. So based on how often you think you will be in the store for repair or replacement, you should make a decision.
[EVO 4G General] mylasthope:
Yeah, I figured sending it to HTC isn't an option--I can't wait that long. I guess I'll just roll w/ ERP and pay the $35 if I need to. Does anyone know if it's $35 per repair visit or $35 per thing repaired? For example, is it $35 if I get 2 things fixed at once or will it be $70?
[EVO 4G General] dmora01:
sorry but about the warranty is this only with HTC or all the brands? and what is the difference TEP and ERP, I pay $7 at month, what am I paying for?
[EVO 4G General] Joshr:
I sent mine to get repaired (broken digitizer; section of the screen didn't respond to touch) I had the hairline power button crack as well as a bunch of dings on the corners from dropping it. Guy on the phone said it might not be covered because of the hairline crack but it ultimately was. Cost $6 to fedex it to Texas, 6 days later it was on my doorstep with a replaced screen as well as a new black trim piece that had all the dings. If it isn't covered by the warranty they charge you the $35 in addition to repair costs. I only paid shipping on the way out and that was it. 6 days wasn't too bad of a wait, thought it felt like forever.
[EVO 4G General] clamknuckle:
It's $35 total. If you had 2 things it's still just $35.
[EVO 4G General] Vandelay007:

If I bought my evo on eBay I am still covered since I have the $7 coverage, right...

[EVO 4G General] rdub4nd:
Ive got TEP for 7 dollars....Iver replaced 2 screens and and external speaker in store for nothing. took about 30 min each time. The first screen was from water damage and the second was because I literally used my Evo as a hammer and shattered the screen. They never asked how or why or even flinched in fixing it. Sprint is by far the best customer service Ive encountered in the cell phone world. Ive only been with sprint since the Evo came out.
[EVO 4G General] mylasthope:
Hmm, my next question is, how does this affect those of who bought Evos before this policy change and can no longer enroll in TEP, since 30 days have passed?
[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
Get buddy buddy with someone at the sprint store and they can add it to your account.

Right now, I'm getting TEP for $4/mo =).
[EVO 4G General] hercules rockefeller:
I wouldn't worry about it - TEP really only covers you for 2 things: 1, an insurance claim - water damage, lost/stolen, physical damage, phone won't power on at all, etc. This didn't change with the new policy, so if you were OK with taking this risk before I assume you're OK with it now. and 2: Repair at the service center (pretty much anything other than what has to go to the insurance company. Sprint will still repair your phone, it's just that there's a $35 flat rate for that now (before it was free in the first year, then $119.99 after that). So you might get stuck with the $35 repair cost, or the new policy might actually save you $84.99 if your phone breaks after the warranty is up. Either way that's cheaper than the $4 / month for ESRP unless you expect your phone to break more than once every 9 months.

For one, are you asking for a G2 rom in the slide Q&A? Because your sig says you are on a G2 not a slide. However, here are links to the rooted stock/wifi tether ROM w/ the OTA update and dumfuq's OC kernel:

CR_Mod: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=747002

OC Kernel: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=745805

With the kernel, if you flash 4.0 then you have to edit the init.d files to be able to boot, but if you flash 3.5 you won't have to. The only major difference is that 3.5 only goes up to 844 MHz and 4.0 goes up to 864 MHz. If you follow the instructions on dumfuq's original post you shouldn't have an issue editing your init.d files though.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuclark:
Whenever I flash my phone with a custom kernel, be it YAOK; SpeedMod; Voodoo; Z4Mod etc. I *always* run into the same problem within the space of a few reboots / few hours of use (sometimes with only 2 reboots)

Essentially, the bug is that newly installed applications will NOT show up in TWLauncher. They're installed and work, but they have no icon. If I FC TWLauncher, kill it's data, or reboot, their icons show up. It's as though TWLauncher "can't be bothered" to re-scan installed apps when a new one gets added. (this seems to happen more with over 8 pages of apps; although there will be some spaces on page 2, 3 etc.)

This behaviour has previously been noted in both the modded versions of TWLauncher available on this site. I haven't tried this with ADW or LauncherPro as I don't like them as much.

I've now gone back to a completely stock kernel and merely rooted it (no lagfix) - so I'm waiting to see if this behaviour returns.

The ONLY thing I think may have possibly been causing this is either the Spare Parts application, or Samsung's new email / IM application. I've not restored those on this particular reset to see what happens.

I've tried everything I can think of to narrow down what's causing this, including NOT restoring any data from backups and instead downloading all my apps individually (there's currently 61 apps installed on my phone, in addition to the bundled ones)

............

Now, before you all ask / comment:

Each and Every time this happens, I have been reformatting both the internal AND external SD cards; then doing a complete flash in Odin, using the 502 PIT file. Firmware is stock XWJPO (with JPP modem).
