General :: LG Optimus Sol Still Unlocked After Hard Reset
Feb 5, 2012I want to give a hard reset to LG Optimus Sol which was initially blocked Vodafone and I unlocked it at a service to work with all networks. If I hard reset the phone will become locked again in Vodafone? I want to do this because the phone does not connect in data storage mode and the bluetooth does not work.
You can tell me if I hard reset will install all the default programs on the phone they had originally? Or is another possibility to reinstall the factory software without being locked again in vodafone? I searched the forums but some said that the phone will be locked again and others say that will remain unlocked.
General :: Unlocked / Rooted Samsung Nexus S 4G?
May 10, 2013Somehow I managed to get my Samsung Google Nexus S 4g phone unlocked and rooted today. In the process I installed the TWRP recovery as per the particular instructions I had. I would like to install something called the Avatar ROM but they say I need the ClockworkMod recovery. Should that make a difference? if yes, where can I find it and how do I install it instead of the TWRP on the phone now?

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: New Nexus 7 - Unlocked But Not Yet Rooted Stuck With Red Triangle
Nov 10, 2013I have been trying to follow the tutorial to take my Nexus 7 (2013) from it's just unboxed state to dual booting Android and Ubuntu Touch. I succeeded in unlocking the tablet. I am using Ubuntu 13.10 on my laptop and installed the whole Android SDK and everything (even though I already had Eclipse installed for learning Java). I've reached two sticking points.
First, the part where I'm told to copy the three files (the MultiROM zip, the kernel zip, and recovery image) to the root directory of the tablet: it's not clear how to do that. The files wouldn't copy except to the internal storage folder. Or is that the root directory?
Second, I am unable to boot to recovery.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
command only brings up the android on his back with the red triangle containing an exclamation mark. That screen lasts a minute or so and then the device reboots normally on its own. I have tried several power and volume button combinations to get a different result at this point, but to no avail.
General :: HTC Desire HD Slower For Some Time When Screen Unlocked
Mar 12, 2012I'm using the Oxygen ROM on an HTC Desire HD. When I leave my phone alone for a while and come back to unlock it, performance is often slow for 20 seconds to the point where swiping between launcher screens is sluggish. After this time it goes right back up to normal speeds.
Is this possibly related to the CPU settings in my ROM? The settings are available governors - interactive, min CPU - 245MHz, max CPU 1024 MHz. My guess is that when the phone's idle it goes down to 245MHz and takes a while to get back up to regular speeds. Am I looking in the right place and how much would increasing min CPU frequency affect my battery life?

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: How To Root Unlocked Samsung Galaxy Note 3
Aug 23, 2013I am planning on getting the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 soon but I am going to buy it unlocked. Is it possible to root an unlocked phone. I have not seen any guides on Youtube or online yet that show guides on rooting a certain unlocked phone. I want to root it as soon as it is possible to root it safely. I am going to buy it unlocked but I am not going to get a plan from T-Mobile from it until January. My main question is: Is it possible to root a smartphone that does not have a sim card in it and is bought unlocked and if there is what guide do I use(like do I use the guide for how to root the galaxy note 3 tmobile edition or att edition or verizon edition.)
View 9 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Use Vold To Mount Unlocked Dm-crypt Volume?
May 5, 2013I'm trying to get my SD card encrypted and I've been able to successfully mount the luks volume, but due to the way that Jelly Bean 4.2 (Cyanogenmod 10.1) presents folders to user apps, only my terminal emulator can list the files.
In my troubleshooting, I've found that a standard mounted SD card is first mounted to /mnt/fuse/sdcard, and then an abstraction layer through a fuse driver mounts it to /storage/sdcard1 in order to set file permissions that all apps can access.
Right now, I'm trying to trick my vold.fstab into mounting the dm-5 device that appears in /sys/devices /virtual /block when the dm-crypt volume is opened. Unfortunately, since the original sys folder for the sd card is in /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1 format, I'm not sure where to direct vold.fstab to check the presence of the dm-0.
I'm aware that as asec apps are installed the dm-5 can change to something higher (dm-6+), but I'll cross that bridge once I get part one working.

View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Memory Difference Between 4.3 And 4.4?
Nov 4, 2013Surprised this wasn't asked yet as Google made it very clear 4.4 is made for lower memory devices.
As I'm running 4.3 on my Galaxy Nexus I'm faced with updating myself to 4.4 once it's stable and fully functional. However, I'm wondering if I should based on the memory usage. 4.3 started making my phone lag a bit and have slower UI between app switching and such. Similar issues to:
4.3 high RAM usage?
So, how much memory 4.3 uses in comparison to 4.4? It would be interesting to see how Google has based it's claim to a 512MB memory phone being sufficient while 4.3 may not be?
