[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Athrun88:
Hey,

The radio link in my signature is the one that I am using for my DZ on the Telus network. It's much more accurate than the stock one that came with it and more accurately depicts when I'm in a 3G/3G+/H network and the signal seems to be more stable. The best part of radios is that if one doesn't work, you can always just flash over it with an older/newer one or the original one.

Hello guys. I was wondering if someone.could please help me with rooting my wife's evo. I'm not familiar with the evo. I've been researching it the.past couple days. My question is in the wiki I see the universal auto root but that uses unrevoked. I have just been reading that unrevoked causes problems so I was wondering if there.is a better way than using the unrevoked. My wife's evo is hardware 4 hboot 2.10 radio-2.15.00.11.19 and on software.version 3.70. So does using unrevoked cause.problems? Thanks for.all your help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidc23:

Thank you guys alot. I haven't been keeping up on the evo like I wanted to with the.epic finally getting 2.2 about time. Damn you guys had it for a while and are getting honeycomb to boot up. Amazing work. So if I use unrevoked forever and an update comes out how does that work? I know you get to keep root but what steps do you take? Thanks alot guys for the help.

Dkdude36 that rooting way.looks fun. Its alot.more involved.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
haha ya that rooting method is 'fun' its not as hard as it seems though. to update, just flash a rom with the new software. if you dont know how to do this, then you probably should have used the manual root to learn, but i will tell you anyways.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musclehead84:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
my favorite is the newest cm7 nightly (whichever is newest at any given time :) ) plus savagezen's newest nosbc. savagezen needs like a day of conditioning so you might get bad results the first day. just stay on it and you will be impressed. i get 30+ hrs battery and high 1550's quadrant scores.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musclehead84:
Awesome. You guys have alot of options to choose from. I guess I'll look at what you showed me and show the wife and let her find one. Her problem is she loves htc sense. So I might be limited on what I can pick. I really just want to get that bloatware off and overclock it for her to speed it up. So if I use the universal script it flashes Amon ra recovery right? I've never used that before. I have always used clockwork Mod before.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
I've always used unrevoked and then when its done I go into recovery and flash amon RA. Its worked multiple times for me. There are a bunch of different sense Roms out there. Warm and mikfroyo are most popular though. Plus a ton of themes and overclocked kernals to go with them. I myself use cm7 but its all personal choice.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musclehead84:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acerbusconfig:
My first Android device and first attempt at rooting came about two weeks ago. I tried Unrevoked and had no problems the first try. If you're not familiar with rooting like I was, it probably wouldn't hurt to cover the directions a couple of times.

I see some with issues are forgetting to install and then uninstall HTC Sync prior to running Unrevoked. (It installs HTC drivers necessary for the process.)

If you stick to the directions, you should be fine. If you want to flash an alternate recovery, then you can do so if you didn't want to use clockwork as well.

Hey Folks!

So I'm wanting to develop Android Apps and I was told that I can program using JavaScript, but the tutorials I'm finding are using Java as their language.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spacebob11:
So I'm coming from the Apple world and I love having the Atrix because I can just use any microUSB cable that is around. I have a question about using different chargers though. The charger that can with the phone is 5.1V at 850mA but I have some extra Motorola ones that are lying around that are only 5.0V at 550mA. Will using the other charger degrade the performance of the battery over time or will it just take longer to get a full charge?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotleadsingerguy:
Well it'll definitely take longer to charge but *could* cause problems in the battery. My guess is that it will judging by how others have had an "on and off" problem with lower-amperage chargers. Instead of just charging slowly the charging sort of stops and starts randomly. Leads to the assumption that the transformer in the phone itself is having trouble accepting the power. Constantly connecting and disconnecting power when charging a battery can have consequences later on.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgymnop:
The Atrix is really picky with the chargers. I recommend to use only the original charger or the chargers that came with the docks. People described the weirdest things from touchscreen problems to not charging at all. Charging via USB cable doesn't work either (or it is very slow), neither on the computer nor in the car.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norcal einstein:
In my opinion....

I wouldn't go as far to say "use only original chargers/Motorola chargers". The underlying issue is just like hotleadsingerguy said, lower-amperage chargers.

If you avoid these chargers, you should be fine. My Motorola Atrix charging brick/USB cable are still in their original packaging, inside the phone's box, tucked away in a cabinet.

At home, I have a few Blackberry MicroUSB chargers which I've used on my Captivate (not picky), and now they charge the Atrix without problems. They are 5.0V/700mA chargers.

At work, I pieced together some chargers from Monoprice, buying USB (female plug) power adapter with long USB -> MicroUSB cables. The power adapter from Monoprice is 5.0V/1000mA, and I use these chargers on my Atrix without a problem...and that's also using like 15 feet long cables. :p

I'd probably say your 550mA charger is not going to cut it, since I've seen some other threads mentioning charging problems with ~500mA chargers.

I agree that using the usb jig with the appropriate resistor would be a good way to force your phone into download mode. Seems like it has helped a few people already.

[G Tablet General] enigma0456:
When I first got my G-tab I was baffled by all the instructions and the literally thousands of posts in the forum. Even now, I haven't been able to find exactly how (or why) I should update my kernel. That said, I have TNT Lite running and I love my g-tab. Exploring the possible uses and utilities on it provides hours of fun. Now - here is my question. I stumbled on some instructions for installing the ROM and I have used those same instructions to install several patches to the Rom. I see all this commentary on Clockwork, side loading, etc. and I wonder if I am missing something. Today I just installed the .25 patch for TNT-Lite. I downloaded the rar file, unzipped it on my PC to get the Recovery folder and the update.zip file. I plugged the g-tab into the pc and switched it to usb mode. Then I moved the old recover folder and update.zip to a folder (cautious me) and put the new ones in the root. I disconnected the usb and started the g-tab in recovery mode (holding the power and volume+ key. It rebooted, applied the patch and I was done. That seems simple enough. It would seem that this would work for switching roms, applying patches and probably even upgrading the kernel (If I knew where it was and why I should do it). Am I missing something? Everything seems to work.
[G Tablet General] Icedvoco:
Sounds like you got the basics ok.

The real main reason to update the kernal as i see it is to add things like driver support for devices like gps and g3, so on, also minor fixs. If your not using your gtab for anything like this you maybe happy to stay stock. But if you like myself like to use your gtab to surf with g3 or as a sweet gps, then thats what the kernal updates allow. Im sure others can correct me if ive got anything wrong or add to what ive said.
[G Tablet General] kozmo2k4:
You got the basic steps right, but installing ClockWorkMod Recovery has a lot of benefits.

First, built in backup and recovery will save your skin if the gTab get "cranky".

Second, installing ROMs and/or updates saves you a few steps. From "tar" files (TnT-lite), extract the update.zip file to a folder (I created a folder named "xda", just an example) and name it after the version of ROM/update.

CWM will flash "*.zip" file. This way you can keep multiple ROMs/updates on the card and switch between them.

CWM lets you clear cache, wipe Data partition, clear Dalvik-cache (use caution there), fix permissions and so much more! It is a great tool.
[G Tablet General] enigma0456:
So now we peel back another layer

OK so now the question of multiple roms comes up. I am not clear about the role of the rom - can I switch roms and keep all of my apps and data intact? I'm thinking like changing style sheets on a web page - presentation is different but the underlying data is still the same? Is it that easy?

And... if I am doing that perhaps I need to "clear cache" or "wipe data partition" but although I like to investigate new things I'm not willing to just walk up and push the big red button without knowing what it is for. So why would I "clear" or "wipe" things?

I get the impression that I could switch between ROMs just like switching between browsers on a pc - today Chrome, tomorrow, Firefox and never Internet Exploder... Is that correct? It took me quite a while to get the market working and it still doesn't work optimally but I'd hate to undo all the work I've done getting the g-tab humming along by switching roms. Can I?

So - anyone care to expound on the structure and how it all hooks together? What parts can be swapped out and what parts form the foundation? I'd hate to brick the little guy in my ignorance.

One final note if you know and you answer - where did YOU learn about this. Is there a book somewhere to read?

Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.
