Hi guys I'm new here I already searched the forum but couldnt find a right solution.

I have Evo froyo 2.2 and have never flashed or rooted my phone. I need to install MikFroYo v4.5 I dont know how to root the phone because I have searched online there are many ways to root it I need to know which one is safe and also if there is a video tutorial it would be perfect.

should i follow htcevohacks.com

or follow this thedroiddemos.com

or use unrevoked ?

Im confused.

Thanks.

Dear Community members,

Should we have 2 separate sub-fora for

Android development

and

Themes and Apps

:

-Sense

-AOSP

I think it will make our live easier, but it's just an idea. I included a poll so please, do MASSIVELY express yourself! I did vote Yes, of course!

[Desire HD General] panyan:
any organisation is good organisation :)
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
I voted no. Why? Because there are so much common things for both builds in those forums.

Android dev: leaks, radios, guides, kernels, general mods (like recent usb host). It should be a general place to find all the custom ROMs.

Themes: I agree that themes are usually for CM or Sense only, but there are also common things like bootanimations, splashes, etc.
[Desire HD General] Andy:
I agree with both sides of the case here, however a well titled ROM Thread

e.g

[ROM][SENSE][etc][etc]............

or

[ROM][AOSP][etc][etc]............

Would do just fine. So I voted no.
[Desire HD General] forelli:
I opened this thread because it proved difficult to find a CM7 theme or kernel! You have to go through I don't know how many pages before you find something for CM7.

As it has already been said, a well titled thread should help more than the infinite splitting of the forums. You'll just have to use the search button. What's next? Froyo and Gingerbread subforums? Once i get to a computer I'll vote 'no'. ;)
[Desire HD General] Hawks556:
I don't know about AOSP or SENSE forums, but I think it would be a good idea to gather all guides (rooting, flashing, s-off etc.) to the same place. That way they would be easier to find than now as they are scattered all over the forum. This would also reduce the numbers of new threads started by people asking questions that have already been answered several times.
[Desire HD General] tkolev:
The sticky roll-up thread in Android Developement maybe?!? They are there, but unfortunately you can have those guides in big red letters on top of every page and there will sill be someone, who thinks it's easier to ask than to read. It has to be the human nature ;). Actually proposing this, means that you too have never looked at the sticky roll-ups in the forums! Shame on you! :p:p:p
[Desire HD General] istinet:
I think this will be the best if we just tag them, so the common things will be in one place and the different ones Wilkinson be much more easy to find.
[Desire HD General] Hawks556:
Yes I've read the stickies, but there isn't listed even nearly all the most commonly needed guides like the getting back to stock guide, improving battery life guide and radio s-off guide just to name a few. Also it would be good to have the known solutions/reasons to common bugs/problems listed somewhere. These threads can ofcourse be found on the forum as it is but if no one posts to the threads (because they are solved) they will fall back to the last pages of the threads list and thus become harder to come across.
[Desire HD General] Hawks556:
And yes I know that the common DHD issues can be found in the general section sticky, but also that one isn't fully comprehensive. Just to give an example the CWM booting while charging issue can't be found there even though the issue has been there since we got CWM on our phones, hasn't it?

LauncherPro for me. I've tried almost all of the major launchers, and LauncherPro has always been the smoothest for me.

Ok ok so i didnt get it much but you want his music player on your phone ?? If yes, get the rom he has and extrat it and go to the system folder, then apps and search for the music player....make it flasgeable and flash via cwm recovery...if didnt work just uninstall the one you have by using.systemapp remover...and try again
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdm4u:
if you have the touchwiz music player already, all you have to do is hit menu and theres an option that says "go to disc view." I just tried it now. When you hit the back button though it'll go back to the normal "list" view. You would have to keep hitting the disc view option in the menu.

Edit: Now that I remember, i think the tw music player from 2.1 did that. My phone's player used to do that before and now it doesn't. odd.

[HD2 General] karlmueller:
Exactly one week ago I got my new Leo (standard European version). Well it wasn't exactly new but a display unit that was probably running 24/7 connected to the charger in the store for more than a year.

When I woke up this morning I realized that the charging indicator LED was still orange and not green although the phone was charging all night. When I checked the battery indicator it said 54% or sthg like that (that's what it was when I plugged it to the charger in the evening). After I powered the device off and powered it on again the battery indicator was suddenly at 100%.

So somehow it did actually charge but somehow the software "thought" it didn't.

I think that maybe constantly running on the charger in the store for more than a year might have damaged the charing circuitry somehow. But is that circuity in the Leo or is it built into the battery pack itself?

If it's in the battery pack I could just buy a new one for a few bucks but if it's in the phone itself I would have to send it in to replacement after just one week :(

Or do you think that this is just a software problem?

Thanks

karlmueller
[HD2 General] azer0:
It could be battery calibration. To re-calibrate do the following:

Charge phone to 100%, then wipe battery stats, let phone discharge til it goes off (battery has to be empty), then charge again to 100%.

Hope that'll do it, if that doesn't work then try a new battery unit.
[HD2 General] stevedebi:
Wipe the battery stats? Isn't that for Android? The OP did not say he was using Android. If you are speaking of WM, where is this file located?
[HD2 General] karlmueller:
Thx very much for your help but yeah I'm using a stock Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM

thx

karlmueller
[HD2 General] stevedebi:
I would switch out the battery first.

To answer your first question, there is circuitry in both the phone and the battery.

Also, go ahead and check the phone battery contacts for bent pins.
[HD2 General] karlmueller:
I figured that it was most likely just a problem of the alarm clock program "G-Alarm" which apparently has some compatibility issues with the Leo.

I went for a different alarm clock program (SPB Time) and hope that the problem is gone now.

Thanks for your help!

on Verizonwireless.com for a 1year contract for 229.99. 1Yr. contract has $35 activation fee, 2yr activation is free. I just called Big Red, told them I was having website troubles, they waived the $35 fee :-)

The data plan from what it looks like is 29.99 still- Unlimited...
[Thunderbolt General] Deleted member 2027727:
Unlimited Data is $29.99/mo. No 4G premium and the assumption is that we will be grandfathered into this pricing. Not sure if it would still be possible for Verizon to force everyone off unlimited but no idea until the plans come out. I'm guessing they may lower the voice rates or add some type of special plans as an incentive for users to switch, but I doubt they will force people off. After all, there are still some people with the original 3G Mobile Broadband Unlimited for $59.99/mo and they can keep it as long as they stick with a 3G MBB device.

Didnt ATT bring back unlimited for the iphone and now Verizon is going to tiered?

Hi there.

I cant seem to see an answer relating to my question anywhere. So I thought Id start a new thread.

I recently won my HTC HD7 in a Microsoft question. Its an unlocked phone which originally came from Germany.

From the original unboxing Ive been using a UK T-Mobile SIM which has worked correctly, the phone updated to the latest mini update automatically so everything seems to be ok.

Ive noticed the new NODO update and Im interested in updating my phone.

Could somebody tell me which ROM to use?

OS version: 7.0.7008.0

Firmware revision number: 2250.09.12302.401

Hardware revision number: 0002

Radio revision number: 5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U

Radio hardware version: A.102.0.D4

Bootloader version: 1.23.2250.0(112138)

Chip SOC version: 2.2.5.0

Is my phone ready for the update?

Thanks

Paul

You`ll get it sent to your phone in the next week or so - if you really can`t wait that long then head over to the HD7 Development forum and check out the roms there.

If you`re not experienced in flashing roms, I`d suggest you wait for the update to come to you in the official way, its less risky.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] kenblat:
Guys, Joeseph Mother @ samdroid just show us his crazy I/O score (10 times faster than our speed now - 4xxx (without OC, i guess) compare to ~400 as our P500 OCed to 786MHz using Darktremor a2sd @ext4)

His secret as below:

"To improve the i/o by using ext2, the easiest way is to extract your ramdisk and edit the init.rc, by mounting /data on mmcblk0p2 (your sd card) you can easily make it ext2,3,4,xfs,jfs, whatever you want using gparted

To extract/repack your ramdisk, you can follow the instructions here, to enable booting with /data on sd as ext2, just change the line in your init.rc with mtd@userdata to this: mount ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /data nosuid nodev noatime nodiratime"

I'm just new to Android so hoping that some of you guys can successfully done the same trick and show us all the step-by-step instruction later.

TIA
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bluviper:
is this meant for all ROMS? or has specifics for CM only?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
One word: Stagefright. You can turn it on on build.prop and have amazing Quadrant scores. Real life performance change? I doubt it.

Also, I don't think "booting with data on the sd card" is a good idea. Read and write speeds on SD cards are significantly lower than reading directly from internal memory.

Just a hunch, based on real life data :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kenblat:
rom independence i think.

With stage fright enable our I/O still at max 400 compare to his 4K !!!! AFAIK H/W, JIT, Stage fright or any know tips did not improve I/O as this much!

Guys, pls don't mess with the final score, just focus on the I/O scores, his phone no OC.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] NervGaz:
It can be done with Firerat's a2sd script for CyanogenMod aswell, and it's a lot easier than changing your ramdisk. Here's My Quadrant score with ext2.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] NervGaz:
As long as the rom you're using supports init.d scripts and has the sd-ext mount point just steal the mountsd and userinit scripts from any cm7 rom and then run fr's script and you should be golden. You might run in to issues with e2fsck (I did originally) but you should be able to grab that from a rom with the same CPU if you find one with e2fs tools. If I get some spare time I might look into making it a bit more portable, but some dependencies are gonna be hard to get round.

<edit>I was thinking of the second one you mentioned</edit>
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Joeseph Mother:
This is the same as the data2sd mod, just worked into the kernel for ease of use. It's fast & stable, but over time may kill your sd card, but they're fairly cheap, so that doesn't bother me. What really surprises me is that when you convert the nand to ext2 & pull the battery, you reboot to a wall of force closes, I've pulled the battery 10 times with this and haven't had a single fc. This works very well with cm7, I did it with that rom and got 1950 at 806mhz.
