No matter what you do : Dev mode on / usb or htcsync = no !

We can't turn S-on => S-off, we need AlphaRev to release a custom recovery including their bypassing S-on thing.

Root != S-off || Root is needed for custom roms and so on, since you rooted your phone and gained access to a clockwork recovery, you're good to go.

S-on \\ S-off = possibility to use fastboot to flash certain things, RW on /system

Root = custom rom / flashing pkg from SD / Root access for apps

hello!

I have tested the new ROM cyanogenmod 7

but I have a big problem... when I instal the gapps I have a message in recovery

"E:signature verifying failed

installation aborted"

I tried with differents gapps (one on the post of CM7 and one in frandroid named universal dpi)

Have you got a idea for this problem...? because a androphone without gapps is not very cool...

PS:sorry if I made spelling mistake but I'm french...
[Legend General] nakajima_br:
Do you install using Rom manager?
[Legend General] aikon96:
Hm did u try this gapps?

There is no google map in gapps-gb-20110120-signed ??
[Legend General] TheGrammarFreak:
it's on the market
[Legend General] Catnap:
It's a stub installer that gets the Market up and running so all the other Google apps will be downloaded.
[Legend General] veL17:
i'm using CM7 #7

There is no Market here.. Anyone help me?
[Legend General] Catnap:
You need to install GApps, which is linked in this very thread, a few posts up.
[Legend General] Noboo:
I actually have the same problem.

No market on a fully working CM7.1 HTC Legend.

I have tried flashing the google apps zip posted above, and I've tried flashing both Gapps zips on the official clockworkmod site. I have stuff like google talk, but NO market. Anyone know whats up (or basically where to get a gapps pack working on a 2.3.7 legend that actually includes the market)? Or maybe any other way to get the market?
[Legend General] ThauExodus:
Do you Have added your Google Account?
[Legend General] farukb:
try adding market widget to the homescreen,run it once,that should generate market icon in the drawer,remove the widget from the homescreen afterwards

you should always wipe partitions before flashing
[Legend General] J_HaX:
doesnt give the option to enter google account info when i restore phone nor when i 1st flashed cm7. tried to download them from browser and it says they are already installed, im guessing because they were installed last time the phone was signed into market prior to flashing. guess its back to froyo til its fixed. (lg thrill)

---------- Post added at 01:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:19 AM ----------

got mine figured out quite easily. downloaded this http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip placed on external sd flashed the zip from cwm recovery. rebooted signed into google DONE
[Legend General] Noboo:
I did wipe cache etc, but somehow market didn't end up into app drawer. This did solve the issue! Thanks

Hi,

I have a rom that I no longer want. I phone doesn't work properly i.e. I can't connect it to the computer. Yes, I need to get it replaced but I can't take it to Samsung without putting back to the original firmware. Now my question is how do I load the original firmware that I have downloaded from samfirmware.com? All I can do is transfer the original firmware from my computer to the external sd card. That is the only way I can put the firmware on my phone. Essentially, how do I load it after that?
[About XDA developers] bazz0847:
Dear Mods,

My life is perfect. My HTC Hero, my HTC Touch Pro and my HTC Vox all had dedicated topics on XDA, what more could I whish for?

But now, in these dark China Pad times, I got tempted and bought the forbidden. Made by Chinese but supported by only God knows who. My soul told me to ask XDA for help, they know what to do in these evil times. I have searched, and I have suffered from a horrible finding... No such support. I nearly switched my religion to a completely differend kind (slatedroid.com), but this prayer is my last attempt.

Please, XDA, support the China Pads. I found out already the Yifang M7 / Booq Vero / Kendo M7 / POV Mobii Gen2 7 are the same thing running the same firmware. Please, XDA, provide a section where we can gather and discuss. Even if the Lord is not willing to make a subject for each evil China Pad made by devils, please provide a general China Pad topic where we can find comfort and goodness.

Thank you XDA!!

Sooo awesome
[Windows Phone 7 General] Audio:
Good on you MS.

It's important nowadays for these companies to find a middle ground between locking a product down completely and opening it for everyone/anyone to mess with.

On one hand, if they lock it down, piracy will inevitably occur on a wide scale.

If they open it up, they won't make any money for future developments.

It's good to see they're taking an open approach and using there heads for a change.
[Windows Phone 7 General] amdx2:
its a good thing for MS open up and listen to idea.. wp7 has a bright future.. i haven't touch my droid since oct
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
I smell a publicity stunt. Large corporations are ran by lawyers, not good hearted people that care about what people want.

Do you actually think any thing good will come from this? I see a one sided deal happening nothing more.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lqaddict:
So getting a 4XL T-Shirt declares WP7 as awesome.

Cool :cool:
[Windows Phone 7 General] at45:
This is great news. I was surprised that MS locked WP7 down so much, and wouldn't be surprised at all if they allowed sideloading in the future, turning the marketplace into a sort of "approved apps" store, like Apple have done on the Mac.

In response to the guy who's never had a job, large corporations are run by a CEO or equivalent, same as everything else. Microsoft would do better to welcome community support than be seen to be outsmarted by it, so I'm sure they will.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
Nice way to think positive haha!

We'll get what we want one way or another.

cstrife999	8 hours ago	in reply to Sang Noir

Seriously this is nothing short of a PR stunt. I would bet my bottom dollar that behind the scenes things are moving differently.

Are you this guy on Engadget?

Yep vetvito, it's me again. Calling you out on your negativity towards WP7.

I know public discourse is encouraged here but public discourse that's always negative is kinda annoying.

This is an awesome move by MS. Some other companies would've ambushed them with lawyers once they were behind closed doors.
[Windows Phone 7 General] BlueAnt1958:
Oh how they have learned

I actually believe that MS has learn't some important lessons prior to releasing Win 7 & Phone 7. The most important one being listen to all your customers and take on board what they are saying.

Will be interesting to see what comes of the discussions and if the OS will be opened up somewhat for customisation.

Go the Chevron guys.. Oh, they are Aussies too. :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] Reflexx1:
Hopefully something good comes out of this.

Businesses want the ability to side-load apps also. And I'd love to be able to play with my phone by making apps that I have no intention of trying to sell or market.

Otherwise... well, at least they got a T-shirt.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
What the hell is endgagdet? Who said anything negative?

Anyway, more security is all I see coming.

well geohot got more than a tshirt
[Windows Phone 7 General] Zedox:
I believe is going to try to figure out a proper way for people to make homebrew stuff for WP7. Proper meaning that there is some security that needs to go in but still let the developers do whatever they can. Is it walled? Yes, but it to some extent there needs to be security so that the people who are making applications for the marketplace don't get sh*tted on (aka piracy). Hopefully this happens. At least Microsoft is listening.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
i believe microsoft is moving in the right direction. we still need to see results, but at least they're making it secure for the people who have no idea, but trying to open it up to those that actually understand what they're doing, and what the risks are for doing it.

Apple and Sony could really learn from MS... who knew that MS wasn't as backward as the media likes to make them out to be.
[Windows Phone 7 General] eternalemb:
Brandon Watson and the MS WP7 team are incredibly insightful. Whether it's for PR or not, this is going to make WP7 look MUCH better in the eyes of the public (well, the non-Android and iPhone fanboys anyhow, but the fanboys don't matter anyways).

[Windows Phone 7 General] jasongw:
I've worked for large corporations for the last 15 years, and what you said is complete and total bull****. Lawyers don't run the company, they're hired to try and *protect* the company from a lawsuit-happy public. Generally speaking, the people who run large corporations are no different from anyone else.

That said, yes, there are incidents of people becoming power-happy and thinking they can use the protection of a corporation to get away with damn near anything. And more often than not, those people are slapped down like the idiots they are, as they deserve. Meanwhile, the decent people at the company are left to pick up the pieces and try to save what face they can.

It's bad ideology to lump people so blindly into groups the way you just did. It's no different than using race or religion as a basis for discrimination, and you really should think a little more deeply and look at the overwhelming majority of GOOD people who run GOOD businesses rather than tripping into trite generalizations.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tiwas:
I believe MS see the reasoning behind giving their audience what they want. Even though Apple are PR geniouses, MS aren't stupid either. Think of all the programs that are "leaked" to "pirates" and never seem to stop working, even though the serial is openly exchanged. They may not play the media the way Hand Jobs does, but they sure know how to create hype by going the back way - letting power users and early adopters "find" their apps. Guess who really decides which applications and platforms to use. The management? Nah...It's the system administrators.

Back in the day I was told to install a server from RIM so we could test out their hand sets. The day before sending it back I did a half-assed install just to prove it wasn't working. Didn't even want to check if it was possible ;) Think RIM got a foot inside even though the importer were best buddies with the CEO and were part of the board? Nah...

Same thing applies here. MS knows it, and they won't **** on their user base. That's the same reasoning as not releasing their lawyers on "pirates". In other words - not run by the lawyers, but actually keeping them on a pretty tight leash.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Bull****? You took one statement and ran with it.

Maybe I should have said, companies are governed by copyrights, licenses, and patents that are enforced by lawyers. Lawyers are involved in everything, especially large corporations. That's business 101.

it have good screen quality and fast enough to play any fun games on/off the market...

[[[ I wonder why same Samsung models have different functions? In Korea, where it's mainly creates phone or share the ideas, don't have any problem with the phone... But of course, it's expensive in Korea... There is no 1or2-year contract, which means they are selling it for original price! And that original price is double the amount of US original price. ]]]

[Off-topic] Deleted member 2758866:
Ill admit that I love my captivate. Samsung makes very high quality phones. However, their software isn't worth sh!+. That's why I'm at XDA. If it wasn't for my crappy software, I'd never be a member. Considering I joined when I had an HTC phone that goes for them as well. My captivate just needs cyanogenmod. I've missed that since I destroyed my HTC phone.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] AutoItKing:
This phone has been giving me hell for a really long time.

In short; it don't work. It will flash but will never boot right.

When I got my HD2 it had the stock WinMo 6.5.3 ROM that worked perfectly. I played with booting Android off my flash drive but got the fast audio problem. So I flashed ChuckyDroidROM, and used that for a month with some different Android builds, all worked fairly well.

But then one day, it started crashing after a while of use. Sometimes it would just not let me unlock it, and other times it completely crashes and restarts. Every time it happened earlier and earlier after booting.

So I tried Task29 and putting the stock ROM back on it, no go. It crashes right after it boots.

Now I've flashed HSPL 2.08.HSPL, Radio 2.15.50.14, and MAGLDR 1.12. I'm trying to flash WP7 to it, but since the MAGLDR menu doesn't show up, I can't flash anything.

It boots into MAGLDR, but just shows "aMAGLDR V1.12, Build: 12 2011 XX:XX:XX, by Cotulla 2011" but nothing else. The menu doesn't show up, but it did once....

Any ideas? I'm desperate. I'm about to blow it up....

EDIT: Now it won't even f**king turn on!!!! And yes the battery is FULL
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] HD2Guru:
I'm having an issue with my HD2 also (even though I've flashed it successfully several times) so this sounds like a very, very isolated issue. The problem I'm having - disabled phone functions in WP7 - also appears to be an isolated issue. Sometimes these things can be the result of a bad flash. Give this thread a week. You're in the right place.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] jvillejoe:
When your rebooting and the splash screen shows up are you holding down the power button to gain access to magldr options?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] sebacu:
Did you took out your SD card? If no, take it out, try turn it on. If you can reach the boot (means the multicolors menu) than your good to flash.

I have the feeling that might be because of damaged SD card (similar issue I had). Hope that helps.

Good luck!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] AutoItKing:
Yes I am. It showed up today, and I was able to flash WP7 to the device, but now it will not boot into WP. It freezes at MAGLDR, no options.

I can flash anything I want, it just never boots, or it boots and then crashes immediately. I have tried with and without my SD card/SIM card.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] jvillejoe:
Wow it seems as if your doing every thing right. My suggestion is, Re-flash the stock Rom that came with the phone, Revert back to the original radio and spl. Call your sevice provider for a replacment phone as it sounds like its defective. Thats what i would do.

thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] Beards:
When you say "tried to uninstall it but nothing", are you saying it would not uninstall or after you uninstalled it dod not change anything.

In the meantime ~ have you powered down the phone..... leave it for 60 seconds, plug it into the home mains charger and switch on.

After it completes it's recharge cycle, unplug and see if it has reset the battery indicator scale.
[Galaxy Tab General] arjov:
sorry for the misunderstanding. i meant "after uninstalling the app nothing changed".

thanks for the suggestion, but i hardresetted and now it seems the phone is charging again (i'm 87% now)

thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] Beards:
No problem......

Hard Reseting the device was a bit overkill. It was more than likely (happens often) that the battery sensor got into a 'muddle' and became confused.

Quite often doing the procedure I mentioned clears any error and resets the battery status back to it's normal use.

Well technically it would be possible yeah, but it would require new version of magldr that can partition nand in a way to store both and to call each separate build from the partitions.

You can however dual boot WP7 from nand and Android from SD. There are guides in the SD forum.
