There ya go As far as ROM's, it depends, the sytem ROM's can often be installed on either technology, however, the Radio ROM's are technology specific.
OT I don't think this was the case, but I hope the apparent rudness to him wasn't because he is from Iran, remember, it's their leader and their government we have issue with, not the people Give him a break, his English probably isn't that great. OT

I can only speak for myself but I didn't even notice his flag until you pointed it out. I want to apologize if my reply to the first reply seemed rude in any manner. I believe in judging people for who they are an not where there from or the color of their skin. This forum is for all and I hope we all agree with that.

this will save you a few seconds of googling.
An over simplification - they are two different technologies for mobile phones in the world i.e. infrastructure on the mobile providers side.
(1) CDMA -Code Division Multiple Access - e.g. largely used in the USA
(2) GSM - Global System for Mobiles based upon TDMA ( Time Division
Multiple Access) - e.g. largely used in Europe
I found the original answer to this funny but would have loved a simple answer - would have saved me 2 minutes googling

This is like giving food to an unwanted stray animal. While you think you are helping it, you are just teaching it to hang around and continue to beg.
Cujo needs to learn to fend for himself instead of posting a new thread for every little question he has.
hehe...I know. From the bad English he used, I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt he's a foreigner and sometimes searching in English is tough for them.

Well said!! I agree 100%. Everyone else here had to read and learn how to mod their windows mobile devices and so should he. I don't mind helping someone out when they honestly can't find what they are looking for and I know how to help but when someone just asks for everything to be handed to them, thats just lazy and they will never learn anything...

I have no problem (and fully understand) the difficulties people have in searching and posting if English is not their native language (I know I couldn't survivie reading and posting on a board in a foreign language!), but based on other recent posts by Cujo316, I don't believe this is the case (completely). He appears to be just asking for handouts without doing any research at all. In one case, a link was given to him, and he replied back that he couldn't find that. I think its more a case of where he wants things handed to him based on what I've seen.
(BTW: I'm assuming cujo316 is a "he". Sorry if thats not the case, but its a pretty safe assumption 99% of the time around here )

[Q] What to do with old Android after upgrade?

So I am upgrading my phone soon, but I'm wondering about my old one. I'd like to keep it around. It will no longer have CDMA access, but wifi will still work. Is there a way to disable (permanently?) the CDMA radio so it does not consume power and only the WIFI radio works?
Also, a paranoia note, what if I don't want the CDMA radio to work because I'm a freak and afraid "they" might remotely disable my phone, or yada yada yada...
Probably should ask this in Q&A.
I know in CM6 you can keep wi-fi on in Airplane mode, don't know if you are running that or not. Also, how are they going to remote disable a phone that's already not really running? That doesn't even make sense.
Wrong area posted AGAIN.

that is when you joined and you have misposted like 3 posts(and thats half of you posts since you have only done 6 posts)!!!!!
Please read the rules fully before posting. Use common since when it comes to posting. Like the rules say...'BEFORE YOU POST ASK YOURSELF WHAT AM I DEVELOPING".!!!
Sorry to be rude but this was a post that was completely unnecessary.
easiest way, is not disable the cdma entirely but put a stock rom or nfinite fxs rom on it, do ##3282# and change the min/mdn to random numbers (preferrable: 0000000 and 0000000 ) and wala, phone is no longer associated with your account and it cant be 'remotely' disabled
I will give that some thought and try it! I appreciate the response, unlike the other posters. I cannot wait until I get 100 or so posts under my belt so I can be a jerk to people as well!

Airplane mode is called that for a reason it disables all wireless communication INCLUDING WiFi for when, you guessed it, your on an Airplane so that it doesnt fux with the airplanes electronics! As far as them remotely disabling a disabled phone, that WONT happen, but just to calm the fears, thats how its done.
As far as the OP, you COULD flash that phone over to PagePlus and use it as a backup phone , I have a guide on howto do it
Well, you CAN use wifi once you are in the air, but I think its just SwitchPro that lets ya do that.

maybe so but by DEFAULT airplane disables ALL radio communication(s)
Yes, I am aware of that, just thought you could easily do both (which you can, but forgot you can't do it natively I guess).

Google it. Can't post warez on XDA.
Also, to the original poster. Keep both phones. That way you have a back up in case the new one fails or gets lost and you don't have to pay insurance. Assuming you're on Sprint, you get the Premier Customer upgrade every 12 months.

Actually that's what I tell myself to feel special. Are they just upgrading every Tom, **** and Harry under the sun?
awww c'mon guyz... wuz just being facetious...I guess my lame attempt @ some geek humor gets trumped by the nerd-rage i was trying to center the lil joke around. I know the developers of swype have repectfully asked xda-developers.com to remove the .apk and consider it warez. Just a thought though... the kind of harsh scrutiny our fellow in the OP was getting is exactly the reason Id like to give a special thank-you to the Unrevoked team for not making me go through the humiliation of smarter people that I'm coming to for advice flogging me publicly rather than politely steering me in the right direction.Ive learned alotta great stuff here, too. So can we all just get along?

It's the Internet. If someone is a **** to you and you take it personally, your doing the internet wrong. And people generally aren't dicks when you follow the rules.
Now the OP knows it probably shouldn't have gone here, he learned. He won't do it again. If he's gonna cry cause some anonymous person was mean to him, let him. If he laughs it off and doesn't take it personally and learns from it then there is no hard feelings, just like it should be.
Sometimes I'm glad my father was kinda a **** to me. Makes me glad I didn't turn into a wuss who complains when people are just a little mean. It's not like he told him to **** off. He was a little sarcastic. Jesus. Now who looks like an ass hole? Not the OP, not the guy you quoted, just you, and now me. Man up.

Weird error at boot logo

Hey guys!
I am getting this weird error at boot logo-
"customerID error: contact dealer
Boot to suspend m/TCMD mode:dead:0000:00000000:000000cc" something like this.
It wasn't giving me any problems with kexec roms(This error was generated when I flashed a kexec rom). But when I FXZd back to ICS 4.0.4(due to some reason), it's giving me an illuminated screen nothing past that! Please help.
Edit- Did my homework and found out that it's the CID error? Also found the solution. You have to boot using BP tools. I love you XDA!! Again I'm gonna write steps here for noobs like me
1) Enter fast boot by pressing power+volume down
2) Press power button, then press power+volume up+volume down
3) navigate to bp tools and press volume up
Just realize, this does not fix the real issue, it just bypasses the check.
You most likely will have issues down the road with your provider.
The ONLY way to fix this is restore a backup of YOUR, CID image (each persons phone has a unique Customer ID).

Yes if that is who your network provider is, otherwise it is whoever gives you your service. This is sent to your provider with the IMEI when phone calls and data are requested. At some point your provider may stop allowing service from any phone that does not send back a valid CID.
No you can not put it back without a valid backup from YOUR phone, if you did not backup your phone, you may be screwed.

Yeah the A2 is super cheap here, and always has been. The thing is that this phone was released in way more than just the sea area. There is the US version, the SEARET/MEARET, the HK version, there were 2 euro versions, that somehow only released a very limited number of phones, it was like in Greece and the UK, and then they stopped shipping them after only 2 months of sales (only like a few hundred).
ALL versions except the MEARET/SEARET were locked down so tight that anything you tried to do to them would screw you. And yes everywhere but in India the CID does matter, so please read, as this has been posted many times, and your posting what you did does not make it a fact, but maybe only in your country/ phone version. Also the XDA site does not only cater to the India market, it is a world wide site, and like I said the A2 was released world wide.

Wow, what an ignorant little ****, you are.
There are 3 devs from India. Devesh, Ravikrang, and Turffe. ALL of the rest of the devs are from the US, and one is from Frankfurt, and even one from China.
alteredlikeness, Hashcode, lfaber06, lkrasner, rdavisct, timmytim, daavis, cogeary, myself, etc. are ALL from the US.
Wanggjhost is from China.
The thing is that devesh, is a great guy but he mostly ports ROMS from other phones, and does really do much "developing", so you can sort of throw him out, if you want to really count people who have actually done real development work on this phone.
So humm, sounds like there are so many developers from India on here (2), and I have not seen either one very recently, on here.
Just because there are a crapload of people, from India (right now) posting in the General and Q&A section asking the same questions without searching, over and over again does not make them devs.
It might help you, if you go back and read all over this forum so you know what has and has not been done. The answers to most of the questions have been answered so many times now, and I have given you a break since you just signed up on XDA a month ago, but as of this post that is done, as you insulted so many devs, who do this work all for free in their spare time, to better the phone and community, and you can not even show respect for those devs, and make statements so arrogantly when you do not have all the correct information, and were just too lazy to take a look at who your devs are, and where they are from.

The answers to most of the questions have been answered so many times now, and I have given you a break since you just signed up on XDA a month ago, but as of this post that is done, as you insulted so many devs, who do this work all for free in their spare time, to better the phone and community, and you can not even show respect for those devs, and make statements so arrogantly when you do not have all the correct information, and were just too lazy to take a look at who your devs are, and where they are from.

And what I originally said is correct wherever, you live, and for, the OP's, OG issue, is not just an issue for those in India, and ALL of your responses never took that into account. So, that is why I said what I said! And that Is why I took offense, as your statement about ALL the devs here being from india is incorrect, and you need to think before making blanket statements like that! As it is offensive to a good majority of hard work by others from around the world.
I get that the second post you made:

Whoa!
I never knew this was so serious! I mean it was mentioned in all OPs to back up CID, but I was ignorant and was like "Ah wth!! What could possibly go wrong??" But I know now what can.
ENJOYING TILL IT LASTS I WOULD SAY!
But I don't think that would cause any problems because it's not that strict here! LOL!
@darth_nihar, please learn to respect senior devs, not that I'm pointing or anything...just giving a heads up.
We cool??

You are lucky you live in an area where carriers are less strict about security like this. You will have to bypass thr issue with bmm on every boot and this will be a real pia. you may think about buying another a2 with a broken screen and exchange the innards with you screen ans case, then take a backup of the old and new, then try and do all the same rom installs and hacks again, and if you lose the CID, you can restore it since you made a backup with the new board/storage.
I know that seems like a lot of work, but it will make you whole and you can sell the broken phone so you are not out much money.
There is guide on how to replace the screen in the general section, that should get you everything you need to do this.
Good luck!

Sounds like a great idea! But I think I would rather buy a new phone down the road(nexus maybe). Because even used phones are overpriced here.
Lesson learnt..Pheww! Gotta start saving now

No it's cool. Just be careful what you post, and that people get your drift. Be glad it was me, and that was not really pissed, because I have had people banned for being complete pricks, not that you were. Others may not have been so gracious.
We are cool, though.
I would like to add that, though I am far from being a developer, I am also from the US. I live in Louisiana now, but I am originally from Texas, which if I remember correctly, Jim is too. If I am right about that then I can vouch for him that you did get off easy. There's a reason that the saying is " Don't mess with Texas ". We Texans are a no-nonsense group of people. Hahaha!
If I had a dollar for every time I said that, I'd be making money in a very weird way.

kk man wontt happen again .............:laugh:
jimbridgman said:
Wow, what an ignorant little ****, you are.
There are 3 devs from India. Devesh, Ravikrang, and Turffe. ALL of the rest of the devs are from the US, and one is from Frankfurt, and even one from China.
alteredlikeness, Hashcode, lfaber06, lkrasner, rdavisct, timmytim, daavis, cogeary, myself, etc. are ALL from the US.
Wanggjhost is from China.
The thing is that devesh, is a great guy but he mostly ports ROMS from other phones, and does really do much "developing", so you can sort of throw him out, if you want to really count people who have actually done real development work on this phone.
So humm, sounds like there are so many developers from India on here (2), and I have not seen either one very recently, on here.

Ok now you seriously crossed your line.
* crapload of people, from India (right now)*
* so you can sort of throw him out*
Seriously? He has done way more than you ever did.
As for all the *devs* you mentioned "all from US" , only 2 of them do real development. Namely hash and altered. Rdavisct and daavis used to dev.. But that was long time ago.. So you can sort of throw out the rest (including and especially yourself). And you actually spoil their reputation. Considering how humble hash and altered are..
The one who actually brought a proper working aosp (including radio) based roms to this device was Wang. And I remember the way you posted in that thread.. All the skepticism.. The only thing you ever said before this was " I am working on ril" "discussing ril on XDA is not allowed"..
As for all that you boast about yourself, here is the truth. You are a big fake.. You have actually done no development for this device. The only thing was the Ubuntu on webtop hack. And I am not really sure how original it is..
The only things you say are
1. Some thing big is on the horizon/around the corner.
2. Give credit.
3. Cannot be done.
Here is one more thing. On the a2 you always said the bl is locked so you cannot do anything. I haven't seen you do anything for the s3.. That has an unlock able bl I guess..
"and I have not seen either one very recently, on here."
Really? I come here and post pretty much every day..
Oh and if there is something you are good at, that's starting flamewars. Since you no longer have the phone any more and posted your "goodbye" thread, here is a sincere request..
PLEASE LEAVE!
Nothing worthwhile has come from you.
Honestly, you are the reason this device's development was hampered.. Not the locked bl..
BTW, here are a few worthy things devesh has done.
1. Get hash, dtrail, altered and me in contact and hence get things moving. He is half the reason we have "official" cm today. It's not you.
2. He is the whole reason we have JBX. Dtrail1 doesn't own an a2..
And at the one who posted the other post, here is something you need to keep in mind.
There are Ppl from all over the world with different nationalities, gender, race, religion and everything else. So DONT POST ANYTHING ABOUT ANY OF THOSE MENTIONED.
P. S. And Ppl from any other nation, nothing personal. If I have hurt any of you in the above rant, my sincere apologies. I have respect for all nations.
Good bye.

Lol. I didn't ask for an asinine value judgment of the thread. If you don't know, how about don't respond , especially in such an agressive manner.

Based on comments John Wu has made on Twitter it is doable, but is going to require major changes to Magisk. I believe he is going to wait for the final release before he starts.

Thanks. I looked at Twitter before asking but I didn't see anything concrete hence my post. I appreciate this. Thanks again.
Not happening. Look at the Verizon thread. A nice guy gave it his all and a few people tried basic stuff. Never buy from a carrier again.

Looks like you were answering the question of rooting Q with the lack of Verizon unlockable bootloader as your example with the "never buy from a carrier" comment when nobody claimed in this thread that they did buy from a carrier. Q is rooted, and that appears to be the reason for the "chewing on those words" comment. If your original comment was just to say that Verizon wouldn't get BL unlocked... wrong thread.
