HTC Eris :: Root And Install XtrSense 4.1

Sep 10, 2010

I have an Incredible, so not familiar with Eris, but I want to root my wife's phone and install XtrSense 4.1, as it seems to be a fast and stable ROM with no tweaks needed.

So, here are the steps:

1) One click root on XDA, install the rootme.zip file, reboot and should be rooted.
2) Run a nandroid backup
3) copy Xtr ROM to root of SD, wipe, and flash via "install from zip"

Is there anything I am missing, seems straightforward. The one step that confused me is this:
Wipe SD:ext partition
What does that step do?

HTC Eris :: Root and Install XtrSense 4.1


HTC Eris :: XtrSense Vs XtrSense

Oct 17, 2010

4.2.1 vs. 4.6, that is.

I'm looking for feedback from xtrSense fans that have used both.

While I am currently using Froyo (CELB 3.2), I want to have a 2.1 ROM "on deck" for those times when I just want every last thing to work flawlessly. (e.g. I have the Froyo undead call bug in mind, and a better camera app).

Probably I would be running it with no cache2sd, no apps2sd, standard OC'ing (245-710), zanfur kernel.

Is there any reason to prefer 4.2.1 over 4.6, when "bug free" is the highest priority?

HTC Eris :: XtrSENSE Vs Stock 2.1

Aug 18, 2010

I'm still running stock 2.1 and am pretty happy with it. I've heard so much praise of rooting and it's very tempting. After looking at all the ROMs, xtrSense 4 seems like it would be my top pick because it has SenseUI, it's new and very up-to-date, and it is known to run so well with so few issues.

But I was thinking, what's the point of rooting and going through the process to put on that ROM, when it will be almost the same as stock 2.1?

Are the benefits really worth it? How much more speed, enhancements over stock is it?

HTC Eris :: PlainJane2 Vs XtrSense

Aug 14, 2010

I am currently using PlainJane2 and like the ROM a lot and haven't really experienced any problems with it. However, I keep reading about how good XtrSense is and was wondering if anyone has used both of these and can compare them. From the descriptions, they seem fairly similar. I just don't know if XtrSense is faster and/or smoother.

I'm also thinking about trying the "non-sense" route and trying Xtr using either ADW or LauncherPro.

HTC Eris :: XtrSense To XtrROM

Sep 1, 2010

I'm currently running xtrsense but am curious about xtrrom and some of the extra features that it has (ie. live wallpapers). I'm currently running a2sd and cache2sd and wondering if all my apps and associated data will still be there and accessible once I run the gscript to turn their features on in xtrROM after wiping my phone and installing? Or should I turn a2sd and cache2sd off while still running Sense so that everything comes back to the phone's internal memory, back them up with Titanium, and turn apps and cache2sd back on once I do the ROM switch?

HTC Eris :: AP2SD From XtrROM To XtrSense

Aug 20, 2010

I'm considering switching roms sometime soon. I have xtrROM currently installed and was considering going to xtrSense. I'm assuming since I already used the dev's method for AP2SD that I won't need to do anything again. Does this mean all my current apps will boot up automatically when I flash xtrSense?

HTC Eris :: Problem With XtrSENSE And Bluetooth

Oct 8, 2010

I flashed xtrSENSE (my first custom ROM btw) a couple of days ago. As many others have said, things have been just fantastic. It's really like having a new phone. Anyway, today I came across an issue which I doubt would be related to the ROM but I don't have any other ideas.

Once in a while I use a Bluetooth headset. When I tried today, it would not work. It used to work without issue with my stock 2.1 OTA ROM. When I tried it today, Bluetooth would activate on the phone but the headset would never successfully connect. I put the phone in discoverable mode but I never saw the headset appear in the list.

HTC Eris :: XTRSense And The Case Of Disappearing Contacts?

Aug 23, 2010

So yesterday I flashed XTRSense4.0.6.1 to both mine and my wife's Eris. My phone has been running great with no problems whatsoever. This afternoon my wife calls me freaking out because her contacts have disappeared... all of them. She said they were all there this morning and all of a sudden they're just gone. I told her to go to Settings, Accounts/Sync, and to Sync Google but that didn't help. She rebooted her phone, synced again and still nothing. Finally I walked her through the process of rebooting into recovery mode, wiping cache, doing a factory reset, and finally a NAND restore which got her back to pre-XTRSense and all her contacts came back without issue. What could have caused this issue and what can I do to prevent future occurrences? I'd really like to flash XTRSense back to her phone because it seemed to fix her other issues but not if its going to cause more problems than it fixes.

What are the major differences between xtrROM and xtrSENSE?

From what I understand, these are two very popular roms for n00bs to start with.

HTC Eris :: Browser Crashes On Launch - XtrSense

Oct 31, 2010

My stock browser used to crash immediately upon launch, no matter where it was being launched from. So I always have to start the browser twice.

But I recently rooted and went with xtrSense. At first it all seemed smoother, but after a few days, it's back to crashing on launch again. Once I re-launch, it seems to work fine, but this is still a hassle.

Thought rooting would b my magic "fix-all".

HTC Eris :: Root And Install Kernel Only?

Jun 28, 2010

My wife has an Eris, and the battery life isn't even 12 hours lately. I'd like to root her Eris and install a kernel to allow it to run slower while in standby. I searched this forum, and didn't see many if any threads dedicated to only kernels. Am I missing something? I saw the guide to rooting, and installing new roms, I want to leave everything in tact, just allow underclocking.

HTC Incredible :: Should I Root Or Install OTA First?

Jul 26, 2010

I have a Droid Incredible on the way and it should be here in about 2 weeks *crosses fingers*.I want to get all the software I will need downloaded ahead of time, and I am confused about the order in which to do things.I have previously rooted and installed roms on my wife's Motorola Droid so I am somewhat familiar with the process.My plan is to have a rooted and OTA updated Incredible running 2.1 until there are 2.2 roms that function well with the camera. What I need to know is what order to install things. Do I install the leaked OTA update and then root?Is the OTA update officially out yet, and if so should I just wait for that to download and install before rooting?

HTC EVO 4G :: How To Install A New Boot Animation WITHOUT Root

Jun 25, 2010

So I'm not quite ready to root yet but wanted to do some more custimization to my phone. I read in another forum about being able to change the boot animation without root. It worked so after reading about some of you all that don't like the sprint 4g boot animation I figured I'd share.

First, you need to install android SDK. Bill did a good guide to installing it: http://androidforums.com/tips-tricks-evo-4g/90418-how-install-android-sdk.html.

When I was installing the sdk I had a lot of trouble with installing the driver for the EVO for whatever reason. Eventually this is what worked for me:
dc50 Hideaway: ADB Driver for HTC Evo 4G

Once you get SDK installed find a new boot animation. There are a few here: [url]

The boot animation should be a zip file named "bootanimation". Put this file in the tools folder of the sdk.

Open up command prompt (Start>Run>type "cmd"). In command prompt you need to get to the sdk tools folder. To do this I typed in "cd C:Documents and SettingsUserDesktopandroid-sdk-windows ools" where "User"=you user name. This may be different depending on your version of windows and where you unpacked sdk.

Now from here you can check to make sure your device is connected by typing in "adb devices". If you get a line that says "List of Devices Attached" and then a line with some numbers and letters followed by "device" you are conneceted. If not go back a try reinstalling Android SDK.

Now with the bootanimation.zip file in the tools folder and command prompt pointing to the tools folder type "adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local". Make sure you put the spaces in or it won't work.

Restart your phone and you should see the new boot animation instead of the Sprint 4G one.

General :: Root GS3 And Install CyanogenMod 10.1

May 21, 2013

My current GS3 apparently had water damage, and a new one is coming from the insurance tomorrow. I figured that since the warranty is up and the insurance won't replace it again, I may as well finally root and flash a custom rom. From my poking around the internet, I like CyanogenMod 10.1. I am on AT&T.

I've only attempted a root once before with this current phone, which I think worked, but I abandoned the project months ago and don't remember. In any case, besides that, I've never rooted or flashed a rom before.

After further poking around on the internet, these are the sources I'm planning on using to successfully root and rom:

Rooting: How to Root the Samsung Galaxy S3 " XDA Developer TV " xda-developers

And for the ROM, I'm going to follow this video:

I understand that after rooting, I have to create a backup (using that Titan Backup app in the video I think?" and i am going to use Goo Manager to download the ROM and gapps. I saw another video that had me move files from the computer to my phone, but they didn't do any backing up, and apparently that's necessary.

What does it mean to "trip a flash counter"? And what is a toolkit, and do I need it?
