[G Tablet General] raskullibur:
Good Day! I am new here and I recently bought a Malata zPad, I have been reading all the post here and I am convinced that the G Tablet and the zPad are the same. When I bought my zPad its already loaded with apps and I can say that it is already rooted I can see Vegan-Tab text when its loading assuming it is the ROM already flashed on the device. It is already flash with Clockworkmod Recovery, after reading all the tutorials about flashing, I downloaded a ROM (zPad Clean 3.0) for the G Tablet and flash it using CWM the process was good and it was successfully installed, but the problem is I was stuck on Loading screen, I was able to recover my backup with CMW, I tried different ROM for the G Tablet still with no success.

I tried downgrading to lower version CMW v08 , I flash with nvflash the flashing was successful but when I try to boot in recovery it just stuck on loading screen.

I can still boot normally and can use my zPad my only problem now is I can't seem to flash it with different roms :( . I hope someone can help me with this problem, you guys here are great more power, Thanks and God bless.

Hey, everywhere, sorry if this thread is on repeat, but I broke my Vibrant a couple of weeks back and FINALLY got my new one. I'm looking for Onyx. Can someone link me?
[Vibrant General] soltheman:
Oynx, along with all of the other Team Whiskey projects, can be found on their forums, which you can get to through their website (Team Whiskey .com)

You may have to register to see the page. But, I might suggest trying out Bionix. It's the successor to Oynx, and I *personally* like it more as an every day ROM.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phil402:
Hey there.

I just got myself a (white) Desire with SLCD:

BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON

RADIO-5.11.05.27

Since i want to install oxygen2 RC7 i rooted the phone first with unrevoked3.

It seems that it worked since "Rom Manager" got su. But booting into Recovery gives me following lines:

E:cant mount cache:recovery/command

E:cant find misc:

because of that i cant do a nandroid backup and i guess flashing a new rom also wont work.

so i tried to re-root the Desire with unrevoked several times (using Linux Ubuntu) but nothing changed. Furthermore unrevoked told me, that my firmware was too new (because i'm already rooted?)

so i tried flashing AmonRa 2.0 with unrevoked. wont work and firmware still too new.

so i tried:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-desire-v2.0.0.img in cmd (after downloading Android SDK)

but it said something about signature verify fail.

After a while i found a workaround by booting the AmonRa recovery first with:

fastboot boot recovery-RA-desire-v2.0.0.img

but it told me something about FAILED <remote: not allowed>

I guess flashing the stock rom from shippedRoms and re-rooting the desire wont work since i dont believe that flashing a ROM is possible. Also i'm new to this stuff (rooted and flashe Desire with AMOLED before) and would prefer to not brick my phone

any ideas?

(btw: please excuse my bad english)

edit: i can't even wipe the phone. if i try it gives me the mentioned lines from above.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
Have you read the stickie in general? There the pvt4 situation is explained.

Also a ruu (stuff from shiped roms) does not require root.

So you can unroot and use unrevoked again with the right recovery image or if your comfortable S-offing you could do that and use fastboot to flash the recovery image.

Keep in mind that you are the only one responsible for your phone, no one else.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phil402:
thanks!!

i overlooked this thread. As soon as the desire gets home (actually it belongs to my girlfriend) i'm gooing to try again by flashing RUU and rooting again with AmonRa Recovery since i don't know if S-offing the device would be the best idea.

Thanks so far. I will report in time.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phil402:
hey.

i just found out, that the phone is a branded one (vodafone_fr).

So just in case i created a goldcard as long as the device is running.

I downloaded following RUUs:

OTA_Bravo_Vodafone FR_(A1 Österreich)_von 1.21.163.2 zu 2.10.163.1

OTA_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone FR_(A1 Österreich) von 2.10.163.1_zu 2.33.163.1_R

i renamed it to PB99IMG.zip, put it on the SD Card and restarted the phone while holding volumeDown.

After a while it gives me "PB99IMG.zip.....No image or wrong image"

After reboot nothing changed.

Is there any possibility to get a working RUU for my Desire (2.33.163.1).

Or HAVE i to go via alpharev S-off?

Man, with my PVT1 Amoled Desire the whole procedure was done within half an hour.

greetz
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
You don't rename the RUU itself, you need to extract the ROM.zip file from the RUU and rename that. Follow this guide I posted on another thread:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phil402:
Hey guys and thanks for your help.

I managed to get root via unrevoked and flash AmonRA by uninstalling zysploit FIRST. Now unrevoked didnt tell me anymore that my firmware ist too new.

Summarizing: If yout get something like this after rooting with unrevoked:

E:cant mount cache

E:cant find misc

than u just have to re-root your desire with unrevoked. This time you have to load a custom recovery (i recommend AmonRa 2.0 since it worked for me) and deinstall Rom Manager and zyploit from your phone before plugging in you phone.

In the Linux Terminal it still says "Error n=-1 ... no such device " three times but it stills works.

Now it was possible for me to run a nandroid backup and to partition the sd

THANKS guys
[HTC Aria General] BuckMulligan:
I'm sure that many of you have read about the recently-filed lawsuit accusing AT&T of over-billing iPhone and iPad users for data transfers. Has anyone experienced what they believe to be similar over-charging for data on our devices? I ask because the numbers on my bill don't seem to match very well with what the app I use to monitor my data usage (3G Watchdog) shows, but I have no way of knowing whether the fault lies in the app or in AT&T's billing practices. I'd be curious to hear others' thoughts and experiences.

Hey friends,

whats up? How you like Android? Is it fulfilling all of your need? Have fun :)
[General Questions and Answers] drafunt:
Being someone that moved from Palm to the Android, I am fully satisfied! The only thing that I missed from palm is the ability to record my phone calls. But this is not Android OS issue it is hardware issue. So I am a happy Android(HTC Desire) user!

Of course! Everything I need in one homescreen, custom ROMs, plus it beats the hell out of an iPhone!

[General Questions and Answers] pantera70:
Completely satisfied... Anything it didn't do straight out of the box was easy and painless to add. Having been a BB and iPhone user before, I can safely say Android is by far the best for me.

Although... It doesn't make my coffee in the morning and run me a bath when I finish work, so I've been forced to get married to cover these missing functions...
[General Questions and Answers] Asphyx:
It has far surpassed my needs!

Even satisfied needs I didn't know I had!

Only drawback I can point to with switching over is there needs to be a way to get out of the cloud if you don't want to have your head, contacts and Calendar in those clouds.

And the lack of Sync with PC for Outlook built in is a major inconvenience.

(I have found some 3rd party functionality here none of it perfect yet)

I used to use my WinMo phone like it was intended, mostly as a communications device and for a wireless hotspot. Sometimes a MP3 player and rarely to get web pages or manuals for the devices I use in my work (Broadcast Video Engineer)

Now on android I have dish pointer that lets me know what satellites I can hit through the camera, I have better web to read and get Manuals where I can zoom much quicker and precisely than I could before.

It automatically will update all the programs I have gotten from the marketplace keeping itself up to date.

And the resposiveness of the hardware (1.2 Ghz) is just a pure pleasure!

It allows me to set the machine up in a sense like format (different tabs for different functions) and the widget is everything WinMo Today plugs SHOULD have been.

I am all for brand loyalty and I understand it is hard to leave a house that you spent so much of your life in but I can't ever imagine wanting to go back or onto the very simplistic and uncustomizable WinPho7.

Android isn't perfect but it sure is a lot better than the other OS' I have seen.

+1...android has lots of customizations..great features but it isnt just as smooth as my iphone was.

There is an app in the market called call rocorder...i m using it currenty with my evo...and it works great...it uses the phones mic to record and the recorded conversations are clearly audible.

You can try it for your phone.

[General Questions and Answers] JDM Civic EG8:
I would say i'm very Satisfied with android coming from a iPhone was a big upgrade to me. I like the freedom that we have and can customize pretty much everything. But I will admit that the only things I missed from having a iPhone is the music player and some of the apps were pretty sweet.
[General Questions and Answers] nognogin:

[General Questions and Answers] vivecuervo7:
I guess it depends on your phone and ROM. I use a Galaxy S, and Doc's ROM (fully customized from the kitchen), and my phone literally couldn't be faster. I click something and usually it's done before I lift my finger. Except for 3G (which is pathetic in Australia).
[General Questions and Answers] GuestD0827:
Absolutely! I used an iPhone for a year before switching to Android. A couple months ago, I decided to sell my iPhone so I booted it up to clear everything out, and couldn't figure out how to do anything! Simple actions, like turning on wifi, and finding an app, are multi-step processes there. Android is awesome, simply put.
[General Questions and Answers] MisterBadguy:
Android has not failed me so far, not in regards to software. Apps are great, software gets better every update, account syncing makes adding contacts so much easier... I could go on.

That said, I've had my truly great experiences with the software only after I rooted my device, shortly after HTC pushed out their 2.1 Sense ROM for it. Since then, I've used a variety of amazing ROMs, both 2.2 and 2.3, which are much more representative of what Android is capable of when truly optimised to a specific device. I've used Symbian and iOS, but I don't think I'll be looking back from Android any time soon.
[General Questions and Answers] ErOR22:
Yep! I find it can do everything I want and really fast, plus more. I must say there are some really handy apps out there.

One area which I think could improve is GPS software, I'm talking about offline map GPS software. I use CoPilot and while it's the best I've seen so far on Android, iGO8 on my i900 WinMo is much much better.

Android is the best upgrading i ever did, switching from my dumb nokia n97..

The only thing degrading rite now is the android market.. Slowly, day by day, the android market has turned into itunes app market.. Lot's of crap apps rather than really useful apps.. Seriously, what's up with fart apps, stupid bikini puzzle, pointless sexy girl wallpaper apps?? We don't need million stupid apps that cluttering the market.. That is one of the reasons i stop myself from buying an iphone4..

No offense..

Far from satisfied.

Navigation isn't as good as on WM

Keyboard sucks, had to get swype

Can't make calls using phone numbers emailed to me

Email client is soooooo basic, only good thing about it is the ability to connect to 2 exchange servers

Browsing the web is a PITA, go to zoom in, accidently hit a link instead which is too small to read (hence the need to zoom in) and then have to go back and do it again. Also there are many pages/links which it can't handle using default browser/firefox/opera

So many apps, so few decent ones
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
Please do tell me at what point you debunked any of my statements. You continuously refer to this instance yet you must be talking about someone else. All you've done to me is just say that that is the case and not accept any other option. Oh and I'm sure all 27 of my Android devices were faulty. Especially since I only flashed roms on 17 of them.

Also I'd love to see this magic hat you're pulling your debunked truths and sales numbers out of because last I checked it's doing much better than android did in it's first six months in every field.
[General Questions and Answers] Mrdaviso:
Android is where I'm staying for now, I played with a friends WP7 for a few hours. Its snappy, but seriously like mentioned before, your always scrolling to see ****. I've been using my mt4g evince the beginning of Nov and NOT ONCE have I experienced lag bro. I still don't think it's as good as android either, zune blows too.	I'm no fanboy, I'm unbiased as you can see and I'm not sporting a android fanboy avatar either. Not trying to start crap, just starting to think your either a fanboy or a troll...... :/
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
I'm no fanboy or a troll. I just figure if the general section is going to be primarily overrun with android threads rather than them being in the android general section then the threads should also educate on some higher quality OSes. Even if one can say they dont experience lag on their android devices it is still not as smooth as WP7 due to the fact that there is no GPU accelerated UI. I do appreciate most of your sentiments though and in all actuality the MT4G is probably the second best android device I own (next to the streak) but with Android it just felt like a fully featured Winmo. With WP7 It feels like something new and something that exhudes quality. I actually look forward to playing games all day rather than flashing the latest version of CM and whatever new kernel has popped up. To date I still have not found an android experience that is good out of box.
[General Questions and Answers] Mrdaviso:
To say my phone isn't as smooth as the wp7 is BS. you know it too. :/
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
Not at all, it's entirely true. I liked the MT4g but after using WP7 for a couple of days trying to go back to android is just horrendous when it comes to speeds .I like the instant response of WP7 too much.
[General Questions and Answers] Mrdaviso:
I've never bought a phone that didn't wow me in the first five minutes, I had it 3 and a half hours. And no dice.
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
Nor have I. For 2 years that was all android and I owned most of the mainstream android handsets available for T-mobile or ATT. I realized that after the release of eclair it was more or less a hardware battle. I mean android itself hasn't really had any revamping updates since 2.1 so now it's all about having the best hardware. A couple weeks after your phone hits shelves it's outdated and wont be updated which is perfect for carriers to push because then they can release the exact same phones with features that should have come in another update and market it as something new and great because the vast majority of cellphone users aren't XDA members. It's the OS that carriers and OEMs want to sell because they know that they can continue feeding the sheep the BS that the phone cant be updated or blah blah blah exactly as they have since the initial release of the G1. My main issue with WP7 is everyone has a bad first impression because most of them meet with WP7 at an HD7 or an HD2 running WP7 or one of the 2 crap phones ATT markets with WP7 on it. The Focus and the DVP are really the only US based standout hardware thusfar. The HD7 was just as disappointing to me as the other HD2 clones (hardware-wise.) with it's washed out screen and overall cheap feel. The Surround I cant figure out what the hell HTC was thinking and the Quantum keyboard was pretty unimpressive. I still have android devices to tinker but for my phone I wouldnt go anywhere but WP7 because I want my phone to be a media player and a gaming device. It doesnt have to do backflips to be great if it does what it can better than the competitors.

[General Questions and Answers] Vaere:
Haven't read anyone else's responses, just responding from my own experiences. I love Android! My first Android phone was the Nexus One, followed by the Captivate for about a month, then back to the Nexus One, and now the Nexus S. I used my mothers iPhone 4 the other week and I can't understand how anyone could like iOS, it felt extremely locked down and sluggish compared to Android (plus, Angry birds isn't free for iOS). So far Android has been able to do everything I want and more!
[General Questions and Answers] vbetts:
I love Android, don't get me wrong. But Android does need to improve on some factors.

1.Hardware accelerated UI. gpu's like the Adreno 200 should be more than enough to smooth out the Android UI. Tegra would be overkill at that point.

2.Android is not very well optimized for screens that have a lower resolution and screen size. My old Pre only had a 3.1 inch screen at 480x320 resolution, but made great use of the screen size. My Moment at 3.2 inches at 320x480 did not at all.

3.Some companies screw android up bad. Samsung is one of them, and it took build after build after build for Samsung to finally provide some actual hardware support for their S3C6410 chipset. Even then, the hardware support for the gpu in it under Froyo is terrible! Neocore scores below 10 fps!

4.Fragmentation is a very annoying thing. Sure, most devices you can root to get the latest android build, but I shouldn't have to basically hack my device, and kill my warranty on it just to get updates. You don't have to with Ios, and you don't have to with Web OS.

5.The app catalog as far as games on Android is not very pleasing to me as it is on Ios. Sure, I've got my NES, SNES, GB, GBA, PSX emulators on my Evo. Which is awesome. But all of these I can also get on Ios, as well as many other games. Just to name a few that I play on my Iphone 2g and gonna play on my Ipod when I get it, Dead Space, Real Racing 2, Street Fighter 4, Call of Duty 5 zombies, Devil May Cry 4, Doom Resurrection, Rage, and there's still more I can name! I can't really blame Android or Google for this though.

I may not be able to play flash games on Ios like I could with Android and any device with a decent chip inside of it, but there is Skyfire on Ios that I can just as well can use for flash videos. There's also one big advantage to me that Ios has to Android right now.

Netflix.

I don't really have many videos on my 2g, people ask me why? Well, I have Netflix that streams videos directly to my Iphone, even when I tether it to my Evo Netflix works. I also have AT&T Uverse, but that's also on my Evo too.

Now, there are advantages to Android that I like.

1.Easy Customization. Self explanatory.

2.Android is available most carriers. Here in the States, Iphone is available on AT&T and Verizon. Sure, I can jailbreak and unlock my Iphone for Tmobile. But it's on an edge connection.

3.I love the 4.3 inch screen on my Evo. The smallest I would probably go now for an android phone, is probably 4 inches.
[General Questions and Answers] xaccers:
Lets see;

You said if you scroll left and right on android between screens full of widgets there would be lag, several of us tested that and reported back there is no lag.

You said that WP7 is smoother than android, several of us have compared WP7 with Android and WM and found it no smoother, despite having a hardware accelerated UI.

You said android can't handle yahoo, and yet it can.

You said that WP7 has an aesthetically pleasing UI, dude, you shoulda gone to specsavers :rolleyes: As I've said before, I thought we'd seen the last of CGA back in the 80's.

You are a fanboi, just look at your posts (WP7 is teh win!!!! droid duz suxors), they're full of opinion claiming to be fact for starters.

Again, as I said, using the logic of your argument (all android phones are the same therefore have the same issues) then all WP7 devices should have been bricked by the MS update.

You may not be able to fathom that android is an OS, not a phone, and what hardware it runs on and what tweaks are done to it by carriers/manufacturers are not "android" but the rest of us can.

You're basically saying "XP is really slow and unstable, I ran it on a P233 with 64MB from Acme with really flakey Acme drivers and software, therefore XP is slow and unstable" while the rest of us running on recommended specs look at you, roll our eyes and get on with enjoying our fast computers.

As for sales, please do present them, last time I checked MS were so ashamed they weren't releasing recent sales figures.

Is now a good time to point out that on market share in the US, WM out performed WP7 last quarter? Or that WP7's market share in it's debut quarter was lower than Android's and even WebOS' respective debut quarters?

Worldwide MS' market share dropped from 7.2% on the last quarter of 2009 to just 3.1% last quarter (if you've not worked it out, that's comparing how it did at the end of 2009 with how it did at the end of 2010, which would be not very good).
