[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] CrAzYiaN:
i rather see an update on a htc hd2 and that's what i'll call news.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dj21o:
I just root my phone last night and my phone is running at 33° and my battery is geting handed a new one.

Does anyone know if flashing a new.kernel or any tips to conserve my battery?

Any help would be awesome. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Well a new kernel COULD help your battery life, but you'd have to check the specs of the kernel, as some are for performance, others battery life, and ect. But be sure to see if its compatible, and if you find no data on it always make a backup before testing it! :)

Edit: In addition to a new kernel, turning off your mobile data [3G] when you're not using is always a big battery saver.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redm1st:
From my personal experience, flashing a different kernel like crack. Lol! but most do indeed improve battery life. I have 2-3 kernels in mind that you could use, how ever i use my wifi tether. So i had to go with a kernel that gives my battery life and doesn't affect my wifi, which the other kernels did effect my wifi.

So if you use your wifi tether, and still want to save on some battery life. Try this kernel.

[Netarchy-toastmod-4.3.2-cfs-sbc-nohavs-suv-universal-singed]

If you don't use wifi tether, then go with these.

[sbc-bcnice-stable-v7]

[sbc-bcnice-stable-v8]

[Reminder Note]

It's really up to you if you want to use these, I'm not telling you to do it. Just offering some ideas to help you brain storm on things.. And yes I have flashed the bottom two kernels on cm7 rom, but my cm7 3g was pretty weak, and i do enjoy 4g at work, so i jumped to a different rom.

Got the links, but haven't posted enough to add links in my post yet.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kyledlindgren:
Just saying, I would recommend staying with the CM7 kernel till a stable release since it's still a beta you never know what will happen!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] briankurtz79:
Ummm....yeah. I flashed kernals to cm7 and lost my camera. Can't get it back either. Been trying everything.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krazyflipj:
Check spare parts and see if you have any partial wake issues
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dj21o:
Awesome guys I will most definitely look into it. Because I love cm7 and do not want to get rid of it. :)

I should probably get back to work, I'll repost back in a few hours. Thanks again!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dj21o:
Oh and I do have all of the little things down. I have taskpanel, oc widget at 245-576, disabling data, all of it. It just runs really hot and my phones almost dead lol. So hopefully a kernel fixes it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aph:
CM7 is great for battery overall, and Savaged-Zen kernel makes it even better.

I'm averaging double the battery life from stock Sense.

See my sig for links.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dj21o:
Awesome bro I will for sure run that one. Because this ROM is awesome and I don't want to leave from it lol.

Oh and how long does your battery last?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dj21o:
Is the Zen Savage one safe to flash? It wont remove my camera?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twiz0r:
That's what I use and my camera is fine

Swyped from my cyanogenized and gingerbreaded EVO
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dj21o:
Ok, so I am at the website and there is a new version that is out.. It is the 0.0.4 version, should I flash that? It looks like it is the newest one...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Green_Arrow:
atm i'm using savaged-zen 1.0.1 and it is running amazingly. everything works for me but i do know that there's still better ways to have better battery life i just cant figure it out yet

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
I got a visa gift card that I used to purchase a couple things from the market with. I have plenty of funds available but when I attempt to purchase the ad free version of word feud, it won't download even though the cost is around $3.

Why does this happen? Why won't the market just download an install the app? Has anyone encountered this before? Thank you thank you?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MBeattie:
There's several reason this could be happening on your end, maybe a hold on the card. Could be a longer than usual verification method on the devs end. Try logging into your Google checkout account on your computer. You'll find more detailed info on all your market transactions.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
Says on the gift card 'valid in the us only'. I wonder if it is because there is a conversion taking place but I thought that google and the market handled that stuff... quite frustrating... I hope this isn't the case...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buff McBigstuff:
Yes, when they post a foreign price in USD it is an estimated price. I have noticed that when they charge my card they actually charge me in Euros or Pounds Sterling or whatever. That might be the problem. The card can't be charged in foreign currencies.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MBeattie:
The last 2 items I purchased were foreign currencies so I don't think this is the issue. Unless maybe your balance in USD isn't enough to cover the converted amount.
[HTC Aria General] rarara77:
I have looked up other threads with this problem and they have been of no help.

Basically when I turn on my Aria it goes to the HBOOT menu. However I cannot use volume buttons to select something other than FASTBOOT. FASTBOOT does not work.

If I plug it the screen turns on and grey with nothing on it, where previously I saw the clockworkmod menu. In addition the LED flashes orange. From this I determined that my phone has no clockwork recovery I guess.

This is with a rooted Aria running 2.3 CyanogenMod.

I tried using unrevoked to fix it and it never detects the device. I am on Ubuntu (my main os) and am running as root.

If you have any idea as for how to fix this please let me know. Thank you
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
have you tried booting the phone using volume down + power button?
[HTC Aria General] rarara77:
Yes this takes me to HBOOT.

[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Alot of people are asking how to flash cyanogenmod and/or complaining about not havig google apps. So here we go.

If you want ext4, get cwm3, it is alot simpler that way.

1)download the rom, kernal for the file system you have and gapps and put them on the root of your sd card

2)boot into cwm

3)wipe data/factory reset 3 times, wipe cache 3 times and finaly go to advanced and wipe dalvik 3 times

4) go to install zip from sd and choose the rom, not the kernal or gapps

5)choose install another zip and choose the kernal (your screen may flash)

6)choose install another zip and choose gapps

7 )reboot (may take a while on first boot. Five minutes max.)
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
Yes, just what we needed, a vague tutorial with awful grammar.

EDIT Well, without bumping the thread: amazing I got jumped on for this. There's a difference between "being a ****" and commenting on obvious facts.

OP clearly wanted to make a tutorial for installing Cyanogenmod... but doesn't care enough to use the shift key, format the text, or explain the steps. Most of the confusion comes from not knowing how to execute these broad individual steps, so why not clarify them?

I was only less than nice when posting because I felt like the first is not much different than the other threads. It is not the result of hard work, but looks more like a slapped-down response by someone tired of explaining the same thing over and over.

I could have been clearer, but don't regret what I said. If this minimal effort justified a whole thread (especially if it's to be stickied) there would be 1000 halfassed tutorials covering the first few pages by now. I appreciate the intent of OP, but the result shows he doesn't really care.

It's weird, because I'm not one of the "should have searched instead of making a new topic" hater... but seeing a new thread that aims to deliver without taking the time to do it right did bother me.
[Epic 4G General] ericizzy1:
how about that instead of letting everyone how much this annoys you, you write up a tutorial, instead of jumping all over the guy
[Epic 4G General] nerdtaco:
WTF is wrong with the Epic forums? Come the **** on people, let's stop flaming each other over stupid ****.

[Epic 4G General] dreamsforgotten:
Thanks OP.
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
Thanks for the post man it's much appreciated. I've been thinking about moving over to CM for a bit of time.
[Epic 4G General] romanmb:
Is there any way to get 4G working yet? I checked the search box and came across a few people that said ti was in the process...
[Epic 4G General] heathmcabee:
Right on! Thanks OP. Much appreciated man.
[Epic 4G General] heathmcabee:
Sorry but our 4g is a bit different than the Evo, and is going to take some time to work out. Some of the best where working on the Evo to make it work and it took almost 5 months to get it semi solid and with 2.2 we can only hope for the best with 4g with Cyanogen.
[Epic 4G General] wjsmaggle:
Unfortunately there's no 4G yet. Someone can correct me but I believe the devs need the froyo source first.
[Epic 4G General] decalex:
Thanks mr. OP.

And for everyone who shudders at "kernal" instead of "kernel" .. me too :) its gonna be ok.
[Epic 4G General] bomix:
Yeah.. I seriously agree.. We'd be a great community if there wasn't so many negative people.
[Epic 4G General] ghostrid3r:
I can understand flaming/negativeness towards OP's with less than common sense post, but "i'm more forum OG than you/more technically inclined" attitude some of these not so new members are replying with is deconstructive/emotionally immature.

Rather than bash people who don't measure up to your personal standards for contributions in this forum, show them how you do it.
[Epic 4G General] atsim:
was thinking about giving cyanogen a go,guess its pretty stable now,no reason not too
[Epic 4G General] XtaC318:
I don't think I've ever seen you contribute.. so instead of being a troll why not post useful info or just don't post at all? :)

Just ignore them completely the post will die out eventually
[Epic 4G General] JimmyMcGee:
Alright, There is a lot of useless posting in this thread. I'm going to sound like your Grandmother but, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all"

[G Tablet Accessories] Sess:
anyone happen to know if the GTab is able to use USB joysticks? I'm looking at this as a potentially awesome portable joystick to use with my gtab for emulation:

http://www.amazon.com/Genius-Pandor...07AA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1296412959&sr=8-1

It looks great, but I fear there are no drivers for the standard gamepad. Anyway, if anyone has any ideas on this, let me know. For the meager 12 bucks, I think Ill buy one anyway. Looks like it would make a nice joystick for my laptop anyway.
[G Tablet Accessories] Captian1310:
that thing is awesome! let me know if it works
[G Tablet Accessories] BigJohn89:
I haven't tried a gamepad with my tablet yet, however if it doesn't work for you, take a look at loading Clemsyn's kernel. According to the thread, it has gamepad support compiled into it.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=895825

BigJohn
[G Tablet Accessories] sixvoltsystem:
I have one and it doesn't work with the G-Tab. I would love it but it doesn't. Even with the new kernel. I tried all the usual emulators and it wont map the keys.
[G Tablet Accessories] MarkF001:
Bummer:(

Would have been fun
[G Tablet Accessories] Sess:
total bummer. If there is gamepad support, writing a joystick to keyboard wrapper wouldn't be impossible... and that would allow it to at least work on any game/emulator that supports keyboard emulation. I just ordered one tonight to start working on it if the gamepad is supported by the kernel. it would be really helpful if you're using clemsyn's kernel, if you could paste the lower portion of your kernel logs immediately after plugging in your gamepad using "adb shell dmesg" . Of course you'll need teh sdk for that. Or if you don't have the SDK installed, you can always do "dmesg > /sdcard/kernel.log" from a root shell, and then either attach the kernel.log file from your internal memory or just paste the contents.

Thanks!
[G Tablet Accessories] Prof-KOS:
This is mini USB (which is th Host port) though. Have you tried a full sized USB Gamepad in the Slave port. I think this is more likely to work.

If there is an adapter like this one would work.
[G Tablet Accessories] Sess:
Bro, the "mini" in "mini usb gamepad" is representative of the size of the gamepad, not its port. Here's a better picture for you to visualize with:

[Legend General] legendusr:
So here's the thing. I've been trying to downgrade and root my Android 2.2 Legend for many hours now and have been failing as the adb could not push the flash_image and misc1-2.img files for reasons unknown to me (said adb: not found despite the files being there).

Anyways, I rebooted into the Fastboot mode and found that my phone's NAND is unlocked as the fastboot says S-OFF. I thought of giving another try by temp rooting with Visionary+ and then trying to Perm Root it. To my surprise, after rebooting and even uninstalling Visionary+, apps requiring root access function properly. Does this mean Legend 2.2 with HBOOT 1.01 has been permanently rooted?

I also installed the ROM Manager and it did manage to install the ClockworkMod. However, whenever I try to back up my current firmware, it says backup cache could not be found.

Also, I wanted to know since its showing that my phone is rooted and has ClockworkMod, will I be able to install ROM without any issues?
[Legend General] Mastacheata:
If it says adb: not found then you probably don't have problems with the files to be flashed not found but with the adb binary not found.

In older versions of the Android SDK it was in tools directory but since r09 it is in platform-tools instead.

Many of the guides found in the internet refer to the old directory names.

From your HBOOT Screenshot you can perfectly see that your phone is S-OFF.

Did you install Clockworkmod permanently already? (e.g. when you reboot your phone into recovery mode from hboot screen you have clockworkmod recovery and not the default Attention sign)

If yes, then you should be fine installing a custom rom from the rom manager or by hand.

The problems with backuping your current firmware using the nandroid backup that comes with clockworkmod fails here too, though I don't know why.

Maybe you want to just backup your settings with Titanium Backup instead of the whole rom.
[Legend General] ThauExodus:
Could his hboot be used to s-off the phones which have the vodafone ota hboot 1.0?
[Legend General] qzem:
Yeah i wonder the same??
[Legend General] TheLegendaryJay:
IIRC, The S-OFF dev did ask for 24 hours access to an HBOOT1.01 phone to pull off everything he needed and have a play then he'd look at S-OFF for 1.01. See the original S-OFF thread.
[Legend General] legendusr:
I can boot into recovery mode from hboot screen but I have to enter by pressing Vol Up + Power button to enter as clockworkmod shows an exclamation mark in a triangle.

When I enter the recovery mode, it shows E:can't open /cache/recovery/command.

Also, can anyone tell me what will wipe cache partition do in recovery?

I'm willing to help if any Legend dev wants to know more about my phone's Hboot 1.01 with S-off.
[Legend General] ThauExodus:
I think this message is normal E:can't open /cache/recovery/command

Can you try to backup your hboot and your radio?
[Legend General] legendusr:
sorry for being a n00b. how do i do that?
[Legend General] legendusr:
I tried installing a custom firmware but I can't as the Legend reboots and shows an icon of installing from the microSD and stopping mid-way with a question mark.

I was trying to install Blayo's latest ROM
[Legend General] psyionx:
Hboot 1.01.s-off. Now, that's a new thing. It'll be good if you can help devs on the hboot side with your s-off.
[Legend General] legendusr:
As I said, I'm willing to. Only if someone would direct me on how to do it.
[Legend General] qzem:
@legendusr

Would you try to backup your hboot, and posting it here?

Maybe this could work:

(instructions by XDA user OzJD)

Power off phone, Connect your phone to PC, Hold back button while turning phone on (to get to fastboot mode)

On the PC:

fastboot oem saveprt2sd hboot -n hboot.bin
[Legend General] ThauExodus:
Or you can maybe try to make nandroid backup....

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eadon:
Many thanks for this. Can you recommend an alternative backup AP?
[Nexus One General] brettbellaire:
OK, congratulate me!! Thanks. I did it on the first try, no issue or hiccups what-so-ever.

Now for the info. I'm not sure that anyone will be interested, but I'm guessing other people in my position at least might be.

I'm very experienced with computers, but not working directly with rooting/unlocking devices. But I would say anyone who reads up a bit and can follow directions properly could pull it off pretty easily.

So I run 2.2.2, and I used superoneclick 1.6.3.

After opening superoneclick, I switched it from psneuter to rageagainsthecage. I had no idea if I was supposed to do this, but I read all about rageagainstthecage, and never heard of psneuter.

I had my phone connected to my PC, and I left my SD in the phone, but I unmounted it in settings. I have used ADB before, so I knew the drivers were installed and working, and I hit the button root.

After reading this site, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682, I started with debugging off, and turned it on as it said. I then turned it off, but didn't get a chance to turn it back on and off and on, so I just turned it back on (debugging) when it got to "Waiting for device" for the second time.

That was it! It asked to test and see if root was in fact accomplished, and it was. I then installed setCPU (which is basically the only reason I wanted to do this) and as far as I can tell it seems to be working fine.

I have been reading a lot about this for the past few days, but the actual procedure only took a couple of minutes. Keeping in mind, of course, that I already had ADB and drivers working.

Nothing was wiped off my phone, which surprisingly was hard to confirm on the web. I did read somewhere that only unlocking wipes data, but still, you never know.

I hope this helps anyone else who is new and unsure of the process, and I'd be happy to answer any other specific questions based on what I have learned of the last week or so. I know that people hesitate to ask questions in case they have already been asked lots of times, but are buried and hard to find (because that's the position I was in :D ).
[Nexus One General] Matterhorn:

[Nexus One General] VaKo:
Other than the ability to install custom ROM's I've yet to see a huge deal in rooting my phone. Anyone care to tell me what I can do with a rooted N1 that is a must have? So far I tried to change some fonts, which didn't work, and discovered that I have to install a custom ROM to change the color of the notification bar, and I can't make the default Google music and news widgets slightly transparent. So educate me, what's the huge deal with rooting, aside from a custom ROM?
[Nexus One General] wang1404:
Set cpu of course like being said. I remember the first time I rooted my phone was universal androot it was a breeze. Then I lost root and use super one click to gain out back. Root really easy as well
[Nexus One General] LFact:
- Backup application, like MyBackup, can backup your app data(including game save...) if your device is rooted.

Hi N1 owners.

I also just root my N1 with superoneclick 1.6.3

After that I flashed CM 6.1.1 and yesterday I tried CM7. Everything has worked fine for me so far, but I have some questions, I hope someone can answer.

1/Can I just flash random roms on top of each other, like i did from cm6 - cm7?

2/ Can I always restore backups, nomatter what rom I come from or to?

3/ when/if official GB come out, can I flash a stock rom and get the OTA update right away?

Sorry, if I ask silly questions ..
