Did u check unrevoked method of rooting??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drdrewdown:
your details suggest unrevoked would be a good method for you to root.

hollar at me on gtalk if you need help

btw u posted in the wrong section :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICEReaction:
Your baseband and PRI versions are not up to date. I would suggest you perform an OTA update (should update you to version 3.29....version 3.30 is for hardware 0004). The one click Unrevoked 3.21 method will still root even if you are updated to 3.29.

Of course you don't have to do the OTA update, you can flash the radio/WiMAX/PRI by downloading the flash zip that's on the XDA forums once you are rooted and have either ClockworkMOD or Amon_RA recovery installed.

[GUIDE] One Click How to Root EVO with Unrevoked 3.21 *NEW EVO'S WONT WORK 11.16.10*
[Captivate General] loonieryan:
Just got a Samsung Galaxy Captivate (Rogers) and I'm a complete noob to Android.

I know it's running 2.1 out-of-the-box but I'd like to get 2.2 (Froyo) on it. I read the Wiki and saw some unofficial 2.2 releases.

First of all, are the unofficial release stable? Do you first have to root to install an unofficial release?

Is it better to wait for the official Samsung 2.2 release, then root the phone?

Does rooting the phone automatically get rid of all the Samsung customizations or is there more work that has to be done after to get the system to a native Android OS state?

I'm sure these questions have been asked by other noobs many times, but I've done some searching and reading and still a little confused.

If you help me now, I'll help other noobs in the future, I promise :)

[Galaxy Tab General] sohaibma:
I need the answer to this question urgently.

I live in UAE and asked my relative (who's coming to uae today) to bring me an unlocked Galaxy Tab from Canada. What I want to check is if the phone features are enabled in the Canadian version and if it is compatible with GSM carriers worldwide.
[Galaxy Tab General] slimdizzy:
I have a Bell Tab and no the phone feature are missing and it will be locked to the carrier that you get it from, but you can easily unlock. I used this post to unlock mine http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=843323. Unlocking will not automatically give you the phone features though. You would still have to flash the Euro firmware to get those enabled.
[General Topics] zen123:
I'm not pretending that I've tried every phone on the market but of the ones I have here's my top 3.

3rd

Apple Iphone 4 - whether you like Apple or Steve Jobs or iOS or not I don't think you can argue that the Iphone 4 is a desireable piece of kit. The design & materials used are top top quality. iOS just works & is so easy to use I have a bunch of apps on it that I let my 3yr old son play around with whenever he wants.

2nd

HTC Desire - HTC nailed it with this one. Finally an Android phone which was great for the geeks & non geeks among us. Design was handsome with nice materials used. HTC Sense made things easy for the masses & if you were a tinkerer it could be rooted & bobs your uncle, anything you want. Froyo update made a great phone even better.

1st

Dell Streak - too big to be a phone & too small to be a tablet but for me its perfect size. I love the dark stealthy design (I have the black version) & because of its thinness it slips easily into my jeans pocket. Lovely big bright sharp 5 inch screen, great external speaker, great reception & battery life that easily sees me through a working day. Shame its made by Dell whose support has been less than stellar. Also shipping it with Donut 1.6 was the worst decision.

The phone I'm most looking forward to is the recently announced Acer with the 4.8" screen.

Please I need your help.

I have rooted my HTC desire (not sim locked) with software Unrevoked and work great. The version of Clockworkmod is 2.5.0.7 and I found newer 2.5.1.2-bravo from this site. I can`t put the new version via ROM manager and Unrevoked.

I use custom rom: latest version of MIUI

ROM manager:

tryid with recoveries and select 2.5.1.4 and get error "An error occurred while ndonloading your recovery"

Unrevoked:

Select the .img file and phone boots twice and nothing happens.

Can you maybe tell me what is going wrong.... :confused:

I just got my new Omnia 7 and selling my Mozart... but what I wanna know is how can I transfer my Marketplace purchases from my Mozart to my Omnia? Its the same Live account.

Cheers
[Omnia 7 General] at45:
I really would have thought that purchases would be tied to your account and not the phone. If that's not the case then I think it's appalling. Though I would expect you'd have to clear the account from one phone before it would let you move the software to another.
[Omnia 7 General] gfreek:
Yes you can, it's not device specific, it goes by you live account!

All you have to do is go to marketplace find the apps (the ones you originally purchased and downloaded in mozart) and re-purchase them don't worry you will not be charged twice as the marketplace will recognise that you have already paid for it and it will ask you if you want to re-install the app!

Hi Peeps..

Well it's a steep learning curve I've been on the last 48 hours... I've rooted / flashed / unlocked / unbranded and overclocked !! O and it's still working :-)

I'm now running CyanogenMod 6.1.0 RC2 rom which I've overclocked to 69.something. ...

I've also installed the google pack BUT, I'm missing some nice widget's.. I did like the HTC clock / email / news widgets.

Just wondering is there a pack of widgets I can download?

Btw.. very impressed with 2.2 so far :-)

Inevitably, new users will choose what builds they try based on the votes in your poll. They may avoid builds not on the poll.

Will you update the poll with each new release?

The main thing that's wrong with polls like these is that just because a builds works for some people does not mean it will work for everyone else, and then we get stupid threads started like "my android abc doesn't do xyz" which ultimately stem from the user not understanding or bother researching what they are doing.

Our phone is the same as the Incredible so by picking it your essentially picking the EVO as well. I would say Verizon probably pays for more advertising on their site then Sprint does.
[EVO 4G General] dglowe343:
As far as I know, the epic still hasn't received froyo. Not to mention it feels like a cheap chinese toy. They can have the screen. I did a side by side video comparison with my buddy's epic and while the colors are far more vibrant, the picture on mine seemed a lot sharper. There still isn't an Android phone out that I'd rather own.

[EVO 4G General] Misty Blue:
Seriously? You guys are hating on them for not choosing the EVO? Personally, I would take the Samsung screen over the EVO any day. The EVO is definitely not my favorite Android phone (that would be the Nexus One), but it does get the job done. Even running other ROMs, the EVO (aside from 4G and the ginormous screen) doesn't quite compare to many other Androids out there, at least one of which was made by HTC. What I think they gave people is the best of the touchscreens and keyboard selections. Not that I condone their choices...I personally hate proprietary Samsung almost as much as I hate gimmicky Motorola...but to each their own.
[EVO 4G General] willy900wonka:
Never underestimate the power of a bought off impartial review. Any analysis can be skewed by giving more importance to the strong points of the entry you want to win.

[EVO 4G General] sultan.of.swing:
I had an epic. Yes its a nice phone and all but I got tired of the bulk due to the keyboard. It is very fast and has a great screen. Well I traded the epic for an evo and so far the evo is just as fast. The sceen colors are not as vibrant but the evo screen is sharper. All in all both are great phones but I prefer the evo.

but INCREDIBLE???? WTH??? Its the same as the EVO but less of a phone. Do not understand.
[EVO 4G General] AtiRadeon1:
Bleh who cares what they say. I dont really care, I have already chosen the phone fore me.

There are some pros and cons that make the Epic good, especially the hardware.

[Captivate General] spankmaster:
Hi there everybody, I have friend with a captivate and i would like to try to see if we can get his problem resovled. Whenever he flashed over to a 2.2 Rom the audio quality ( what the person on the OTHER line hears) is terrible! The first one we tried was

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=827153

AospMOd space man with the Setiron kernel. Then he called me and i noticed that the the audio i heard sounded literally sounded like a walky talky. It was really really bad.

So then we odin flashed back to stock and it sounded great just like before.

Now he's on AXURA with the default kernel (Setiron i believe anyway) and i dont think it sounds AS bad but it might just be my imagination. But i know it doesnt sound anywhere NEAR as good as the stock rom and kernel, stilll very poor in comparison.

Has anyone noticed this same issue? Anyone have any ideas on possible problems or fixes?

P.s. I am a EVO 4g owner and am active here on the EVO forums, so i know my way around android and adb and all that, so dont worry about scaring me with ideas :) lol

P.P.s I have no idea how it works on GSM, but i know on CDMA phones, we have a system menu through the dialer that lets us change whats called a vocoder. or basically, the audio codec/compression received from the tower and it specifically and directly is what effects our audio quality. im not sure if there is anything like that in GSM (more that likely not), but i figured id at least bring up the idea.

[Captivate General] nickbarbs:
Yeah my friends and family complain about my voice quality also.. I think something is up with these roms?
[Captivate General] MikeyMike01:
It has nothing to do with ROMs and everything to do with modems.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
I believe the instructions tell you to flash the JK3 modem file.
[Captivate General] Shammyh:
It's also worth mentioning that the Captivate has a special Audience voice processing chip that none of the other Galaxy S variants have.

While I'm not 100% sure about it, I don't think any of the leaked 2.2 ROMs or radios are actually using it at the moment. Especially if you are running a i9000 reoriented kernel. That means that instead, voice processing is being done by the modem. So this could be what you're noticing.

Personally, I'm using a i9000 ROM w/ SetiroN's kernel and I have excellent voice quality on both ends. But of course, YMMV.
[Android Apps and Games] Akulamenuri:
I use a couple of applications (Widget Locker, Tasker, Juice Defender) that stay in the notification bar to prevent Android from killing them. My notification bar looks really cluttered because of all these apps but when I disable the notifications within the application, Android kills them.

I want to know is there an app that puts all my notifications in a notification (kinda like putting apps in a folder) to make the notification bar look less cluttered.

If there isn't I would like to know is there something else I can do to stop Android from killing these tasks (Just so you all know im using a Mytouch 4g that has 768MB of RAM so I don't think RAM is the issue)

I was also a CM fan until I discovered Myn. There are lots of great ROMS for Evos, but CM and Myn's seem to have the most users (at least active ones) and Myn's tends to have the best satisfaction based on users.

CM is a developers playground while Myn is more user-friendly with its customization. Either way you can't go wrong with this phone :)
