[Q] noob with questions n yes ive searched and read.....

ok ok yeah i am a noob to this htc evo rooting and things im sorry honestly it is the reason i got the phone so i could root it.... but i have had this phone now since august doing excatly what you stated i should do right at signing up for this site.... read search read more and more and more and keep searching... so now after months and hours of this i believe im atleast ready to root.. i have sprint replacing my htc evo with a brand new one due to arrive any day and im planning to root right out of box... im using rooting method i found here ... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865204 .... ive downloaded all the files and programs as instructed even copied the thread as so i can read each step agian as preforming it... SORRY A BIT LONG WINDED ... my question is this i want wifi tethering basicly i got the wifi tethering download from ... http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list?can=2&q=Evo ... is this all i need to open my wifi hotspot free???? and also since ive done all this reading and digging i found alot of info confusing and or unorginized sorry just hard to search and find things is all but i am also looking for a wolf theme set and a mod also but finding most themes in title only no pics and mods with no discriptions ... basicly is there one member with whom i my chat with to help with these issues and point the right way or place to find what im looking for???

sorry one more thing im also going to be activating my second line on my sprint account and getting another phone one with a full slide out keyboard and will need to do this with that phone as well .... what phone would be the easiest and best to do so with....

Yes, if you use the wireless / wifi tether app, you're set for tethering.
Also, if you want a theme made, go ask in the themes/apps section, they'll help you out there. I know billbowers does themes for a fact.
Also your root method will depend on the hboot, so check it before you root it, and do NOT any OTAs before you root.
Also, you'll have to do the appropriate root method for the extra phone.

Theres a few roms out there that has all that integrated into the rom and theres themes made already for those roms,heres a few threads that have what you want...

There's only 2 phones with slide-out qwerty keyboards at this time, running Android. The HTC Shift and the Samsung Epic. Shift you would be pseudo familiar with, being from the HTC lineup. Epic on the other hand may be a little different than what you have read so far, especially if the phone is running Gingerbread. Good luck.

thanks for the info and will follow up on the leads you have given very helpful thank you

sorry..

Sounds like a dirty flash. Did you start a fresh install, wipe everything, prior to installing the new one? If you just flashed over the other build, merging/meshing may occur, but at least it was usable.?

I agree, especially since he is going from one sense version to another. The basic rule of thumb "You can never wipe enough"

[Q] questions questions...

Hey all, Sorry for the NOOB question here..
I've come over to a HTC OneV from a Desire Z.. On the DesireZ I had CWM installed and quite happy at installing customroms etc.. Currently my OneV (GSM) is still running stockRom, but it regularly hangs freezes so I thought id try an alternative rom...
Reading through the threads Im kinda confused.. and thought Id ask the experts.
1. On the DesireZ I used to use CWM to install roms, on many of these threads I see fastboot and cwm being mentioned... Am I correct in saying that you can use both? But fastboot is done from the PC , pushing the rom to the phone, whereas CWM is done on the phone itself???
2. The all-in-one tool looks awesome.. still valid?
3. On the desireZ page there was a nice list of "roms", ranked on when they were updated. With OneV, this list appears to be inaccurate.. Simply a case of needs to be updated ??
4. Id love to try CM10, but as I need to use the phone for work I need it to be reliable... is CM10 stable, Loirs rom look good..
Many thanks, Ill avoid asking the standard "Which is the best rom" as I know its horses for courses -)
Again thanks for the time.
Angelo

1.Fastboot is usually to flash a kernal as most roms require a certain kernal that isn't stock, if you want to flash a rom just use CWM,
2.Never tried it...
3.Different forums...Most roms are still in beta anyways,
4.It's good, still in beta but overall is very usable.

Ok bro,
Firstly u can install only kernels through pc,
u have to flash roms in recovery,
and secondly i tried cm10 it can't be used for everyday use,
i currently use cm9 rc3 which is great,i did try the tool kit, it works
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app

thanks Guys,
Questions answered
I'll probably stick to either CM9 rc3, I know it well I might try the Suprimo rom as I do like some of the Sense stuff

m telling u cm9 is best
Click thanks if i helped

Hint taken

Hey cybervibin
As you noted in another thread I successfully rooted and installed CM9, although I did scare myself convinced that Id bricked it with the kernel.. it turns out that the instructions need to be a little clearer, in that you MUST flash the kernel, and then immediately flash Cm9, otherwise it will hang.. its strange that i didnt see this issue with my desireZ, i used the same kernel for over a year...
One feature which doesnt work too well is bluetooth headset, the stock rom works v. well here.. the phone rings and it automagically connects to the bluetooth headset and voice streams.. whereas at the moment, I need to
1. phone rings
2. answer it
3. then press (maybe and hold) button on the headset, then its ok..
this means there's about 3-4 seconds after the call comes in delay.. not a biggie but strange..
Also going from BT to handset/speaker works but not the otherway around...
Is this fixed in RC4??
Next is to find some of the Sense4.0 widgets I liked.. and install them here...
thanks again

Hey man,
See these are unofficial Roms they have their own kernels which is compatible only with that specific ROM....
SO after u fastboot the kernel given in that thread there is no problem,
and so far i have tested the Bluetooth feature it worked pretty fine,
u cant expect it to work perfectly cause its still under. Work,
u should post that problem in the cm9 problem thread
And no RC4 is a security fix u can see the details in the below link

[Q] A bit of help :D

Hi guys
Well, I'm buying a new Galaxy Note 8.0 next week or the other, and after seeing such as root and recovery, it seemed pretty easy to root and install TWRP with the toolkit
But after doing anything I thought it would be useful if some of you can answer me some questions
Well, first of all I'm not a noob do I know what am I doing ^-^
First of all, when I was seeing the unofficial CM10.2 thread, I saw that I have to unlock the boot loader to flash it, but I couldn't find any thread of how to do it so, if you could tell me
And finally, I wanted to know what's the best ROM for gaming... I will use a lot the tablet with my sister, so I need a ROM that can handle very well for playing heavy games like MC4 or dead trigger, and installing A LOT of stupid apps (sister). So I would like a ROM that has the possibility to OC
Hope you read everything don't be a ***** jajajaja
Cheers

use chainfires rooting method, and you can flash any rom you want; no bootloader unlock needed, for the 5110; if you get a different model, then I cant speak to it..

[Q] Best Stock Rom For Note 2 N7100

Im a little confused when I look at the array of stock Roms to choose from.. This is my work phone, so don't want to root or custom.
nearly all roms on Samfirmware and Samsung-updates stop at July. I know we are getting KitKat and jumping 422, but what would be the best stock rom to install for now on a UK N7100, would that be Slovakia XXDMG1 or Turkey XXDMF3.
I did an OTA and the one installed is an old May 31 XXDMF1.
Thanks

First lesson: you cannot ask for a "best" anything. Best is only what's important to you.
Granted, your geographic region may play in to which options you have available, as some modems don't always play nicely.

Ugh. Can't modify my post
The better question would be to find out which roms/modems will work in your area, and go from there to pick out features.

Btw, I'm not trying to be rude in my answer. But any thread that starts with "best" is going to get flamed and likely closed by a moderator for those reasons. Each ROM is a unique piece of work, each with features some people love while others hate. "Best" will always come down to "what works for you"

I don't really get it.
"Stock Rom" with no root. Surely this leaves you with absolutely no choice at all.

Dude if u don't want to root then flash the latest stock rom of ur region..Since u mentioned that u don't want to root ur phone, its better to leave ur phone and wait for OTA updates.
Or u can flash "Android Revolution HD ROM" which is full stock with tweaks and better performance..for root issue,u can unroot it easily from supersu app itself..

Im interested in flashing Revolution HD. Im no stranger to flashing through ODIN, but Ive never rooted before so Im a bit nervous of bricking it, and because I use my phone for work.. I have my own business and need it for every day plus don't want t loose any features through a custom rom.. like S PEN or SOundAlive audio engine, so these combinations is why ive never rooted or custom'd.
But ill look at Revolution, however, ill have to start from the basics of rooting then on from there, but it looks nice
Thanks

Then definitely go for ARHD since its pure stock with tweaks and features
And no..rooting will no way brick ur device with a condition that it is done correctly..but that's rare case of bricking ur device via rooting
So good luck:thumbup:

It's really good if you like AOSP ROMs...Otherwise Ditto ROM is pretty good too...or Hawkish Premium..

I use AOSPA and don't have any of those problems. Well technically I can't say any since I haven't tried calling yet but none if the other problems. Did you clean flash or dirty flash? Also, did you mean your recovery is CWM? I've never heard if cfw.

It's a T989, right? If so, here is the ROM link ( http://aospal.hostingsharedbox.com/aospal/roms/hercules/) and here are the gapps ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942). You need either the mini or the micro gapps for it to flash right. And here is the AOSPA thread for the T989 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2313530)

You have to expect occasional bugs with any aosp roms.... The devs have done a great job keeping this device current.... Considering official support ended with 4.1.2.
If you want total stability on your phone.... Stock 4.1.2 TouchWiz might suit you best.
Just my 2 cents. ?

You might try using a stable Jelly Bean ROM that's been around for a while, such as the older builds of CyanogenMod (10.1.3), AOKP (JB-MR1), SlimBean 4.2.2, etc. If you still have a bad experience with those, you should probably go back to stock. You can always root and install Xposed on stock for extra tweaks.
