I would really appreciate it if someone with a rooted Nexus 6 model XT1103 would post or send me via PM a dump of their KPAN (mmcblk0p36) partition. I am trying to recover a phone and need the original version of that partition's content to continue. There is a free app in the play store called...

An AOSP ROM with some CM stuff added was posted by myfluxi in the CM11 thread, and some of the users there requested that it be moved out to a separate thread, so I've created this one until myfluxi decides to create one himself. I'm very impressed with the ROM/Gapps/kernel/SuperSU combination...

Quick question for anyone that may be more familiar than I am with the KNOX implementation in the Note 8.0 KitKat bootloader. I know there are methods to root without tripping KNOX now but was wondering if booting a custom recovery (fastboot boot recovery.img) trips the flag or only actually...

This will permanently enable LTE on the Nexus 4 running any Android 5.0 ROM. As long the hybrid radio is present, and a factory reset is not performed, LTE should remain enabled after reboots and ROM flashes. Note: This mod also used to modify iptables to allow tethering over LTE on Canadian...

If you are wondering (like I was) why you are getting quote notifications in the private messaging counts and via email read this XDA wiki post. There are similar notifications by default when someone "mentions" you as "@username" in a post. Both of these features can be configured from this...

I don't normally post in the development forum but this is where the other OTA update threads were created. The Sprint version of the 2.95.651.5 OTA can be downloaded here. It includes some firmware updates, patches and replacements for system files, and the Sprint Connection Optimizer app...

I found these links in a thread on androidforums.com: Droid Life Phandroid ramjet73

I know this is a little off topic for the Evo 3D forums and even for XDA, but I thought it is worth sharing here since we all use PC's of some sort. The browsers (Chrome and IE) on my PC were really sluggish today and I happened to notice that when my mouse was hovering over the screen there...

The availability of this app would seem to indicate that HTC has changed its posture on distributing RUU's. ;) There is also a paid version if anyone would like to donate. ramjet73

It's official now. ramjet73

This is going to be a short and simple guide for S-OFF users that want to update to the current RUU level or refresh their phone because they are having issues like being unable to boot certain ROM's. You will not lose S-OFF by flashing the RUU. 1. Do a nandroid backup of your current ROM if...

It seems like the questions about returning to 100% stock are coming up more often lately, possibly because more users are moving on to other devices. Whatever the reason, I thought a simple guide might be useful to avoid having to duplicate this info in other threads and PM's. This procedure...

I just came across this tutorial for setting up the LMT Launcher with "PIE" control and thought it was pretty cool so I'm sharing it here. ramjet73

Since there still seems to be a lot of interest in manual updates of PRL's, I'm introducing the Quick and Dirty PRL Update Kit (QADPUK) for people that can't or don't want to use the diagnostic mode and QPST/CDMA Workshop on a Windows PC. Note: If you prefer to use an ICS Sense ROM to change...

I came across these relatively new backup/restore utilities while researching something else, and thought they might be of interest to some of the users here. [APP][2.3+][20/11] FlashBackup - create AROMA flashable ZIP backups of apps [APP][Beta v4] Nandroid Manager AppExtractor 2.0 Beta...

Wondering how you are going to find a case that will let you hold your next smartphone with a 5+ inch diagonal screen in one hand? HTC may have an answer that makes it easier to do the basic functions without having to handle the main phone. ramjet73

I'm not a big game player but I know there are some in these forums and they might be interested in trying some of the PlayStation Mobile (PSM) games on the Evo 3D. The Evo 4G LTE just got built-in certification with the JB update, but it's easy enough to install the certification files on the...

The SwiftKey Flow beta is open now. The blog with downloads for phone and tablet can be found here, and the video overview is here. This notice was also posted in the themes and apps forum. I usually don't cross post, but I know we have a lot of SwiftKey users, and some of them may not visit...

An OTA patch has been released for Virgin Mobile Evo V users that includes updated firmware and ICS software. I've added a post in my QADERSO guide thread with more information and a link to the update, and would appreciate feedback from any Evo V users that try it so I can decide whether or not...

I found this kind of old thread in the HTC Desire forum when I was trying to help someone with a bricked phone, and tried out this tool and thought it was kind of cool. I guess it's technically an app, but it runs on a PC (Windows or Linux) in the directory where you keep ADB and fastboot, and...

There have been a number of threads started here asking what is the best ROM for the Evo 3d. Those threads are not allowed in the Evo 3D forums and this one is not intended to answer that question. What it is intended to do is help users that are new to custom ROM's on the Evo 3D get some idea...

I've been meaning to start this thread for a while and finally got around to it. :) Most of us know by now that the 1.58 bootloader that came with the official Sprint ICS (2.89.651.2) build won't flash and boot GB and AOSP ROM's properly, but is required to boot the kernel that came with that...

For all the System Tuner and Battery Monitor Widget fans there is now an app in the Play Store called Android Tuner that consolidates the features of those and adds more. A special offer is available on the developer's website for users of the pro versions of the previous apps to upgrade to the...

Some kernels for the Evo 3D on XDA now have On-The-Go (OTG) USB host support built-in so it's very easy to support USB peripherals such as keyboards, mice, flash drives and portable hard drives from your phone regardless of the ROM installed. If you would like more information about OTG, here's...

This discussion started as a question in one of the CM10 threads asking how users that want an AOSP experience over HTC Sense as a daily driver wound up with the Evo 3D. It then began evolving into a debate about Sense versus AOSP so I thought it would be a good idea to move it out of that...

With no disrespect to the moderators, I am seriously asking where I can find the forum rules that disallow discussion of what users here think is the "best" ROM and other subjects that aren't supposed to be discussed in the XDA forums, or more specifically in the Evo 3D section of those forums...

I just posted in one of the ROM threads that the latest version of the Aroma File Manager (AFM) seems to work pretty well with the Evo 3D. That utility is handy if your recovery doesn't have a file manager built-in and I think the only one that does at this point is TWRP 2.1+. AFM is started...

This Quick And Dirty Evo 3D/V Root & S-OFF (QADERSO) guide is for current Sprint and Virgin Mobile (VM) S-ON users, rooted or not, who want to get to a rooted S-OFF configuration of the Sprint or VM ICS stock ROM. There are many other ROM and bootloader options that can be pursued from there...

I've been trying different things with RUU's and hboots and discovered that the Main Version (mainver) can be changed by the content of the android-info.txt in a PG86IMG.zip. Specifically, after flashing the 2.89 RUU.exe, the mainver was 2.89.651.2 as expected, but after flashing the...

Does anyone know of a way to provide a shortcut for direct access to the SK4G hotspot setup? There doesn't appear to be a shortcut available in the jump key configuration, and I haven't been able to find an app that does it. I would like to make it easier for my gf to turn the hotspot on/off so...
