[Galaxy Tab General] Adapt0r:
Let me try to give you some initial info. You can find better answers in the XDA forums.

First of all most upgrades are motivated by adding GSM phone capability to US Tabs. To add this feature you need to replace stock firmware with European firmware (ROM) that has such capability.

Because of different size of ROMs safest way is flashing the whole thing (not its pieces: PDA, PHONE, CSC) with repartitioning. In this case .PIT file provides info about what is included and possibly max size. Each piece is writen in a proper directory. In Linux some partitions should be carefully sized larger than possible future need.

We don't have exact data about sizing but experimentally learned that without repartitioning flashing Euro ROM results in failure: the Tab does noot boot properly. It seems that some directory was over its capacity.

Most likely you will need to repatition once when flashing Euro ROM for the first time. All following upgrades seems to work fine flashing only PDA or Phone (modem).

My recommendation would be copy and paste best step-by-step procedures in one doc, print it and follow each step until its proper completion.

Thanks for helping understand what is happening. I can follow directions and that is great and all, but I like to understand to some degree what and why I am doing something.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmdrtuvok:
Hi,

I hope this is the correct forum now for the Question.

I followed guides to get Radio S-Off and SuperCID. This appearently worked and asking gives the SuperCID:

# AT(at)CID?
(at)CID: 11111111

But the Bootloader (SHIP) still passes androidboot.cid=VODAP120 to the kernel (Previous A1 Austria Branding). And therefore the DHD still sends this cid during the OTA update check for example (which results in not showing the 1.72 update).

Is there any way to fix this? (Do I have to install another bootloader?)

Any Ideas where the DHD still remembers VODAP120? :confused:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmdrtuvok:
CIDs

After some Additional Testing: There seems to be something wrong with SuperCID.

If I change the CID to something other than 11111111 with Easy Radio Tool, this CID (HTC__102) gets used by the bootloader and also the DHD then shows HTC__102 on getprop ro.cid.

If I set it back to 11111111 the ro.cid again displays the original VODAP120.

So, what is wrong with superCID - and what exactly is the benefit of superCID anyway?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmdrtuvok:
SuperCID appearently is not necessary for downgrading a HTC Stock ROM. So I am fine for the moment with cid HTC__102 and SW 1.72.405.3

anyway I am still confused about all of that. :confused::eek:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
Htc_102 is an unlocked/unbranded wwe phone so I guess super cid doesn't matter in this case since that code amounts top the same thing - being able to use any sim card.

Sent from my performance enhanced Desire HD.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmdrtuvok:
Yup. That is why I set it with the Easy Radio Tool.

Still somewhere in in the depth of the DHD it still remembers the VODAP120. But now it does not cause any probs any more.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
It is a bug in gfree, the core app that my tool uses. Devs are working on it, but your device does still have real SuperCID. It is just the software side that thinks otherwise.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inferniac90:
IS there any way of changing nooks MAC address, due to a bug in firmware my router has problems with devices that have macs other than 00:..... (nooks starts with 58).
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gedster314:
I tried editing /rom/devcon/mac address with rootexlorer. I got the changed file to stick after reboot but when I looked at my router it still showed a NC beginning with 58.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inferniac90:
Yeah I changed it too, but it doesn't help. There's another file containing mac address -> /sys/devices/virtual/net/tiwlan0/address but I failed to change it
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captfoss:
MAC addresses aee fixed on the wlan chip itself... without some spoofing software, you shouldnt be able to edit it in software...
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linyongzheng:
Changing MAC Address (CM7)

Contrary to what Jason said, it seems that the NC actually spoofs its MAC addresses in its configuration files.

The /rom/devconf/MACAddress file seems to just be for the device info menu in the stock rom. (I would edit that file and the change would be reflected when I checked the device settings). However, this does not seem to change the actual MAC address, but only the info for that menu.

Like many important hardware settings (at least back in the day), changing the MAC address requires a hex editor. If you hex edit /rom/devconf/WiFiBackupCalibration, you'll see your MAC address in the first line (00000000 offset). The MAC address values are backwards and there is a gap between the 2nd & 3rd values.

As always, be sure to make a backup of your files before playing around with them. I cannot guarantee that this works for you, but it definitely worked for me.

Here is a key for the coordinates of the MAC address in WiFiBackupCalibration:

Aa : Bb : Cc : Dd : Ee : Ff

Aa - 0B

Bb - 0A

Cc - 06

Dd - 05

Ee - 04

Ff - 03
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danformer:
I've used this method on cm7 and it worked great =). But on cm10 this doesn't seem to work. Does anyone know why this is the case and how we could still change the Mac address?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
CM10 does it differently. Look at this post. It was written for CM10 on the HD+ but the same thing applies to the Nook Color running CM10. Just the file location is different. It is at /data/misc/wifi
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danformer:
I gave the method a shot, and no luck so far. Am I possibly missing something? I found the file and changed the values (which were bolded), turned off WiFi, inserted the edited file, turned on WiFi and the Mac is the same.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Did you reboot?

Sent with XDA Premium from my Nook HD+ running CM10 on SD
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danformer:
Yes I just rebooted and at first it didn't change the Mac address, but when I went back to the file there was another that looked almost the same but had .orig at the end. So I switched the WiFi off, removed that file, switched WiFi on and it worked =)

Thanks for the help, it is appreciated :thumbup:
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackAttackYT:
I Need Help

i have no expirence with hex editors and i have a nook HD+ With cyanogenmod 11. how do i do this

I Backed up a different nook HD+ With a mac address and now they cant be on wifi at the same time :(

so thats why i need to change my mac address

I am experiencing this issue on the Galaxy Tab, does anyone have a fix for this? I have seen some stuff for phones, but not for the Tab. I does not seem to be reliant upon the sim network as i receive this error message with or without a sim installed.

Its a bird, its a plane... no its a Rom

I have had a few Requests for this so i decided to make this rom. Its based off stock Desire Z.

my goal with this rom is to make something real fast and real smooth but mostly stock (i did a few minor Add-ons)

All Htc skins work for this rom

Skins are the best way to change the look of a stock rom

because you can always go back and they have less issues than

most themes.

I will make some Skins in the near future but for now there are tons of them here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=801928 (credits to designers)

Issues:

720p video recording has issues ( like all z roms)

internal storage doesnt mount (i like it like that but i will fix at some point)

and some other normal Z rom issues.

please let me know what issues you find. thanks

touch tones for incall prompts

Fix: (change audible touch tones in

settings menu /sound/audible touch tones

change from short tones to long tones)

Done:

1. zipaligned

2. optimised apks

3. optimised pngs

4. speed tweaks

tons more

Add-ons:

1. hot boot menu

2. full working htc hub

3. Super-Z custom transitions

4. custom task bar icon (gingerbread based but rebuilt)

5. notifications transparent notifications pull down shade (darkens the more pulled down)

Apps:

Astro

Xda

Google car home

spare parts

spare parts note:

to make things more snappy change

Window animations - Fast

Transition animations - Fast

I am not responsible for any damage to your device

always do a nand backup before flashing

Downloads:

V2.0 note:

due to so many improvements a

full wipe recommended

wipe dalvik cache required

Super-Z Standard V2.0 (Full Rom)

Super-Z Standard V1.1 (Full Rom)

If you want to try my other Rom that is based off Super-Z Standard but has some add-ons.

try Super-Z Enhanced. It is a beta rom and will remain that way until its stable enough for everyday use. It is just an enhanced version of Super-Z standard but not as stable.

Get the Super-Z Enhanced Beta rom ........HERE

hey wes, whats the diff between this and your super z v3 besides the non-rotating rosie?

PS: sent you a PM yday and thanks again for acknowledging me in the OP!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wes342:
its pretty much the same

its just a stock z rom but

i did a bunch of speed tweaks and didnt add anything extra

like rotating rosie and e reader.

i did add a few apps that should be standard with all roms anyway.

i may add ereader in this one but not sure yet

because kobo is free and has more options

but no widget so im not sure.

Thanks for posting the non rotating rosie. I noticed this has the old market. Besides that I can't find any problems. This thing flies. Keep up the great work.

It should update to the new market automaticly.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jpcdeux:
It was SLOW and laggy for me so I went back to Virtuous. Odd
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wes342:
Z roms are usually slow and laggy

For the first 5 to 10 min while the system settles.

Yeah, it was longer than that. Anytime I downloaded an app even, it didn't want to do **** until the dl was done, it in general seemed too much of a resource hog.

Wes, Thanks for putting together this standard version of your SuperZ - 3.1 I was running 3.1 for a while, but I really like this standard version better because the selection of themes is so much larger with the Non-Rotating Rosie.

This ROM is very nice. silky smooth, with no lag or problems that I can see.

Thanks.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] wes342:
Overclocking is CPU dependant so it works on most phones.

Lower the overclock speed down a bit

Until you find a speed that is more stable.

Other option is try a different kernel.

Ziggys bfs may not work for you.

Every kernel is different and every phone is different. You just have to find a phone/kernel combo that works for you.

word! will just deal with it till then just because this rom rocks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wes342:
I've been looking around and it seems like most xda members only really care about the theme.

What I have been doing is making super-z Rom faster and smoother and not focusing on theme yet.

Roms out there that are focused only on themeing seem to get more attention. Donations and praise ect.....,

What do you guys want?

Should I focus on theming

Or making the Rom function better? Then theme later?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] uninc4709:
functionality, speed, battery, stability>themes. this rom looks good enough as is, id keep going in the direction you intended.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nikon_rh50:

[Droid Incredible Android Development] caleris:
I agree. This the way to move forward.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbby:
definitely agree that stability should be higher priority than theme
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Lsdozer:
Well, I think the ROM functions great right now, and I am a theme whore, so I Like themes, but thats why I use Super Z Standard. There are a lot of themes available for the Z roms that dont Rotate.

If more skins were made for rotating rosie, I would switch back the the rotating Rosie ROM.

So basically, I am cool with working on function and speed, but the right Rosie button is a peeve of mine. However, I have just gotten used to it.

Hey wes, the Rom seems great. I like the screen transitions a lot. The only thing I noticed is that after I flashed, I had the old market.

verizon wireless caps the download speed once you hit 5gb of data

if you have already hit your monthly 5gb assuming your on the unlimited data plan then then verizon slows down your connection speed.
