I paid $549 for mine and would gladly do it again! Too bad the deal doesn't apply to those of us that have an aversion to contracts...

Edit: Oh... but it does. Not $200 good, but the price is currently $499. I'm taking my receipt to the store for my $50 credit!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] symbit:
Hello XDA,

I recently installed Bionix Nero Beta 2. When I saw Beta 3 had been released I downloaded it and tried booting into Clockwork recovery from the ROM manager app. For some reason when it reboots it appears to be quickly installing a package and then proceeding to boot into Samsung's recovery, not Clockwork.

It seems that the cryptic first screen is saying that it is restoring the default recovery, but I am unsure as it literally just flashes on the screen, from which point the phone reboots and goes into Samsungs recovery.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe.kerwin:

All I can do is offer my opinion and share my experience. I'm pretty sure XDA isn't affiliated with T-Mobile, so my guess it would be difficult for anyone here to guarantee what TMO will or won't do.

I have found that saying "cancel my service" when I call in, gets me through to Customer Loyalty. I wouldn't call in yelling or with "vinegar," rather, explain the obvious and clearly documented issue. Let them know you have compared side by side and more importantly, let them know that it's clearly documented on TMO's support forum...

http://forums.t-mobile.com/t5/myTou...-quot-superior-quot-pictures/m-p/592439#M8943

All you can do is stick with it and if possible, ask to speak with the Customer Loyalty rep's manager if you find it's not going as expected.

You need to create a goldcard. There is a guide on theunlckr.

Swyped from my HTC Legend
[Legend General] vasilii_htc:
how to create GoldCard if my phone have no root and doesn't load android???
[Legend General] nutunited:
Surely you can get what you need from the phone in fastboot mode? If I remember correctly you need to run some commands via adb and adb works in recovery...

Swyped from my HTC Legend
[Legend General] vasilii_htc:
yes i can run fastboot over android sdk with usb connect to my "phone"
[Legend General] nutunited:
So then you can follow the tutorial on theunlckr site...

Swyped from my HTC Legend
[Legend General] vasilii_htc:
i dont have root and goldcard :(
[Legend General] nutunited:
You don't need to be rooted. Also the tutorial is for making a goldcard.

Swyped from my HTC Legend
[Legend General] vasilii_htc:
my phone loaded only in bootloader (HBOOT, RECOVERY, FASTBOOT...)

if i start to load android -> bootloop after bootscreen
[Legend General] nutunited:
Create a Goldcard

Flash this RUU

That really should work. You don't need root access or access to android on your phone to do any of this...
[Legend General] kleutscher:
lol :D

you need a goldcard i you want to root your phone:p

ontopic make your goldcard like nutunited explained;)
[Legend General] vasilii_htc:
Android not started on my phone

how can I do it from HBOOT USB PLUG or FASTBOOT USB

this works from FASTBOOT USB
[Legend General] nutunited:
Hmmm, just tested and adb shell doesn't seem to work from recovery... Do you know anyone else with an android phone? Because all you need is the ID of the memory card, you don't actually need to get it from your own phone!

Put your sdcard in another android phone and install goldcard helper from the market. Then you can use that number to follow the rest of the tutorial :)

Good luck!

Swyped from my HTC Legend
[Legend General] vasilii_htc:
the "ID of the memory card" is not unique for (phone+microSD) ???
[Legend General] nutunited:
Shouldn't be.

Swyped from my HTC Legend
[Legend General] vasilii_htc:
to resolve the problem I did

1. found a friend with a phone HTC

2. set him my card

3. downloaded from the Market program GoldCard Helper and got the card-id

4. on site input cid and received in the mail the image of GoldCard

5. use GoldCardTool.exe to write image onto microSD on my PC

6. set HTCSync v3 and connect my phone to PC

7. booting in fastmod (Vol down+power and select FASTBOOT) - label = FASTBOOT USB

8. Run on the computer RUU_Legend_Froyo_S_HTC_WWE_3.15.405.3_Radio_47.51.35.17_7.13.35.05_release_160328_signed.exe and install the firmware

Now everything is OK!

[Droid X General] bennettvonbennett:
hey all - first off let me just say that I have already searched here and on the web and on Koush's site also for the answers to these questions - but I've been unable to find anything helpful.

first things first - I'm having trouble making a backup with Bootstrap Recovery.

when I go the "Backup/Restore" options and then I hit "Backup" Bootstrap Recovery tells me that it can't mount the SD card.

I *have* used BR to backup my system before - about a month or two ago - and I didn't have any problems at all.

so anyone know what's up?

this leads me to my second point - what would really be great also is to get some *documentation* on the various options on the BR "greenscreen"

I really don't want to go blindly poking around, but I'd like to know what does what.

thanks,

Are there any ROMs that support OC?

Thanks in advance!!!

[Captivate General] psai:
I use Assonance, and it's really good. Gives me great battery life too :)

I also like it because it's a more vanilla ROM than Perception/Cognition and Axura.
[Captivate General] DarrellRaines:
I think that after trying perception, cognition, axura, and the leaked 2.2, that my favorite is perception so far.

I think that certain aspects of each rom are better than the others, but perception has given me the best battery life so far and a GPS I can actually use. I miss the lockscreen on cognition though, and I wish I had my vibrations for key presses again, but I digress.

which rom has the best battery life?

currently using the nexus one frg83d v1.8 and loving it, but hating the battery life
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Clom801:
Try the MIUI build (any). If you like the nexus one builds you will definitely love the MIUI build. If you don't like the iphone looking style just install ADW or launcher pro from the market. You will also need to use an android friendly wm rom. Use vbn with excellers multiple build loader both are found in the android development section. When you use the build loader app chose auto boot 3 seconds, ( you will know what I'm talking about when you are in the app). Hope this helps :)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] grandmaster_b:
Strange some people say to switch to that from Desire or Desire HD builds because it has better battery life ?

I am running

MDJ Revolution 1.7 with MDJ 7.6HD Kernel

Radio 2.15.50.14

I find that the above radio is better on battery than my previous 2.12.50.xx

Also the Kernel is better too.

But it depends on how much you play with your phone I get 3 - 7ma drain on my current setup but of course when you start calling or playing games it will easily go up to 200ma.

I find the above rom very stable I can't find anything that doesn't work and its fast enough for me I don't notice any lag or freezing.

I was thinking of switching to your ROM to try but if the battery life is that bad then I may stick with this.

im using setcpu greenpower and advanced task killer

ssetcpu is at the minimum

advanced task killer set to auto kill - crazy (means it kills apps as soon as screen goes off)

greenpower set to manage wifi and mobile data, turns off wifi and data when there is low traffic and turns it off as soo ans the screen goes off

Thanks for any kind of help you can give me.

How exactly does HSPL work? Do I need to remove it before I can legally sell the phone?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gmichaelow:
So this is the future thread of DATA2EXT.

Basically this is a hack to mount part of /data onto the SDcard, improving I/O thoroughput, as data will be written to internal NAND and SDCard. (Theoretically)

I've currently gotten really close to a functional DATA2EXT.

About to flash the next test, and I think I got it this time.

Progress will be posted here.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gmichaelow:
v1: Failed. Not that easy.

v2: OOOHHH. Still failed.

v3: Mhmm. THAT should do it.

v4: Heyyy! Found an error! *fixes. Trying now =] Failed as well.

v5: Failed failed.

lots more fails.

v17 Trying new idea now! :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gmichaelow:
Bugs go herreeeeeeeeeeeeee
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gmichaelow:
Maybe some random stuff here xD
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
Thanks man I'm excited about this thanks for looking into it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gmichaelow:
EDIT: Haha... I realize that this quote has nothing to do with cyanogen's warning xD Oh well :P

Yup yup. I respect cyanogen, but from what I've read, it seems his main issues are:

1. Doesn't actually help anything.

2. Doesn't get wiped, so errors between ROMs will occur.

However, theoretically, it SHOULD help. Read / write is now spread across NAND and SD, so should increase I/O. But again, real-world difference has yet to be looked at.

Wiping it IS possible. One could delete the partition, and the recreate it. Wipe. What cyanogen seems to mean is that it's not baked into clockworkmod. It means that a separate zip will have to be included for those who want to wipe.

But again, I've yet to get it actually functional. Once it's functional, the performance vs risk can be weighed.

On another note, I've seen talk about DATA2InternalStorage. It certainly makes sense, we've a whole 6GB to play around with, and it should be really fast. However, the added r/w that occurs with DATA2X should drastically reduce life. And since we can't change it out... not a good idea.

The SD card can be changed out very very easily, so a shorter life shouldn't matter too much. And I'm not sure of the logistics, but if internal storage is on the same NAND as /data, then moving writes over to there really won't improve anything.

Anyways, I'm testing v4 now after my phone charges a little more. *crosses fingers.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] r2DoesInc:
:eek:

.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] overground:
What partition layout is needed for this? Maybe you've already seen it, but I've been following THIS, also.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] khanam:
hopefully this helps with real life performance too. When I compare the inc to the crazy fast new devices out there, I feel a bit jealous. If I see some increased speed/smoothness, it will certainly be worth it for me. Also, will it be possible to get this in a flashable zip format? 1 for AOSP Roms, 1 for Desire Z/HD/MT4G Roms, 1 for old sense based roms or am I smoking the wrong pipe in thinking this way?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gmichaelow:
I've been tweaking the script to work for the DInc. I had to change the place where it mounts stuff, and I've finally got bootup. However, still a billion force closes. Digging into this...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lafester:
This is all very interesting and I thank you for taking the time to try and get it to work. I just hope in the end it is worth the effort :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sfreier:
I agree! Can't wait to test for you! And again thanks for putting your personal time toward improving our devices!!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] khanam:
How did it go? Any luck getting it stabilized?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gmichaelow:
=[. Noope. Failed failed failed. haha, but at least I'm making some progress. About to try again now, I'm getting closer each time xP
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gmichaelow:
After so many failed attempts, I am forced to give up.

It's too much work for too little gain.

The whole point of DATA2EXT is twofold: Increase /data space for apps, and increase I/O.

The Desire (what this was originally designed for) has a 150mb /data partition. That's hilariously small.

The Inc has a ~700 mb /data partition.

Hilariously huge.

So, the /data space point is moot.

As for the I/O speeds, there are no real-world benefits. Yes, I/O will increase dramatically in Quadrant, but that's it. Quadrant writes a pretty large amount of files to read I/O, so difference in I/O speed helps.

But that's not the case with apps. Apps store their data in /data/data. The whole of which is usually about 170kb. Yes, Kb. Not even an MB. If I write at 1mb/sec, I'm done in about 0.1 seconds. The I/O will increase throughput to ~2.6mb/sec. I'm done in about 0.065 seconds. That's a 0.035 second difference.

Again, that's if EVERY SINGLE app was writing at once. 0.035 seconds. Negligible.

Haha, I do realize I am making such a strong case against it because I couldn't get it to work xD

So, in the end, Cyanogen was right xP It's just a benchmark hack. Real world performance doesn't depend on I/O.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] khanam:
got it. Now it makes more sense. thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] r2DoesInc:
finally come to the same conclusion?

i worked on it for a bit, did a bit of research, got it to boot.

after researching a bit more-and being stuck at the FCs where you were-i gave up. cost/benefit ratio just wasnt gootd enough
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gmichaelow:
Haha, yeah. It's like there's some hidden mount file that I can't control. bleh. It did get kinda funny, EVERY single app FCed and I tried to tap my way through xD Yeah... didn't work so well xP
[Droid Incredible Android Development] r2DoesInc:
ya, you tap REAL fast and think you got all the way through, get a glimpse of a black screen, the BAM! FC for EVERY single app :P

Also i need to disassemble to little bits or maybe just take the housing off the front (ive seen both ways on youtube and with out full disassemble looks hard.

Thanks for any input :P
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] killster2:
lots of people look no one relies

Well took it all apart everything went great untill the f***ing digitizer and lcd would not come out i finally got it out and noticed tiny crack on the lcd part so looks like i need new lcd too.. I plugged lcd back in 2 ribbons back into mobo and plugged battery hit the power (it vibrates and turns on but nothing shows on lcd) Should it not show anything on lcd if everything isnt plugged in? (didnt bother plugging in the antenna plug the digitizer *(waiting for new lcd to plug that in) or the ear piece plug but i thought id at least be able to see the broken lcd light up. Am i wrong or did i mess more than the lcd up possibly?

I kinda expected to break the lcd when taking it out it was so hard.. another 25$ down drain but then again the lcd might have been cracked already not sure. I just hope it works with the new lcd. can i test the new lcd with it taken apart?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Dr.Ama:
there is a guy on ebay selling a brand new replacement front for the TP2. it comes with

like a charm and looks brand new.
