Unrevoked Forever testers needed

We believe we are near ready to ship our incredible/evo solution to security off. Note this means you would have TRUE subradio level security off, and no matter what hboot/radio you flashed this would remain unless you purposely ran the command to reenable. We need a few people to help test slowly so we don't mass release and run into issues. We need folks at various levels of hboot/radio/rom, but the big thing is don't be afraid to loose your data or even brick. It's possible. Though we have not seen a permabrick yet from this. Truthfully, in the entire line of work we've done, there has only been ONE unrecoverable brick. And based on new knowledge that one might even have been fixable.
If interested, please join freenode channel #xxxxxxxxxxxxr to test... First 2-3 people only. Thanks!
EDIT: We are done for the night. It's looking good. We had 4 of 4 tests perfectly successful and rooted. Expect a full release soon unless something comes up! Stay tuned to http://www.unrevoked.com/forever

Sure i'll test

I'll help.

1. I'm NOT a dev, but could sprint etc ever give an OTA which would run a script to reenable??
2. For the testers are you looking for unrooted users only? (I thought Matt said it would only work for those already unrooted.)
THANKS FOR ALL YOU GUYS DO!!!!

I'm down have two phones

so whats the word guys it would be nice to flash the ota and see the difference between stock and the roms so far

Will release soon

Good question, yes there is ONE thing that could reenable this. But I don't think they'd use it as it would mess up all true testing phones out on the market. And this requires a custom recovery that can run unsigned zip's. That's about it.

Thanks guys your work is amazing and WOW how easy can it get? MANY MANY MANY thanks this worked on my 2.1 rooted and was able to immediately upgrade to 2.2 without an issue with root of course.
And as well it work flawlessly on my already rooted and upgraded to 2.2 evo
WOOHOO!!! and here are a couple of pics for proof

question for those that are testers, once you flashed a custom rom did it keep the 1.4pri

Will this work with stock ota 2.2?

Did not have the pri...
Phone must ALREADY be ROOTED so as far as I have read if you rooted you dont have the 1.4pri

I thought the PRI was tied to the Hboot though? If this actually installs the current stock Hboot (79.0000) shouldn't your PRI be 1.40?

You're screwed. Seriously if you have a SGH-T959W there is no supported help. We dont have any once clicks to fix your phone.

There is no slim ics for this phone yet so you flashed something for another phone....on that note just one click back to stock without flashing bootloaders and you'll hopefully be fine.

But not your exact phone model (SGH-T959W). Read a little more carefully next time. Though you might get flamed if you ask a question about it, it's better than bricking your phone. Next time try to make sure it IS for your phone before you flash.

You can use bhundven's One-Click. There is a guide for it in the second link of my signature. Don't flash bootloaders as eollie said...

Shoot...can't remember off the top of my head...but anything by att...if you can't tell what app it is by the apk name open the apk up in 7zip and look for the icon
There's a bunch you can remove, and you can always use other stock based roms as a reference, an easy way to find out if its needed is go to rooted stock uclb3, get titanium back up and start uninstalling apps when your done getting rid of apps rebiot and see how your doing

Really the best thing to do is experiment...development is all about trial and error and finding out what works best for you if something goes wrong then there is always Odin/heimdal

There's an old saying that goes something like, "Greatness innovates, but genius copies". There's another one that states that, "Immitation is the sincerest form of flattery". There's another, somewhat XDA specific, that goes, "Read/search everything on the forum, then ask a question that hasn't already been asked and answered". With that preamble,
1 - This question is probably better posed in the Q&A section. Dev section is for, well, development.
2 - Taking a direction from the above quotes, download a debloated rom, unzip it, and compare to the stock rom. Read the OPs of some of the other roms, sometimes they list all the apps that have been removed. Mostly, you'll be looking to remove things from /system/app.
3 - Read up on deodexing and zipaligning, unless you plan to use as a base a rom that already has this done.
4 - Ask permission and cite sources if you use anyone else's stuff.
5 - Google, read, research, search again, repeat...

I know it might not be totally safe, but I found these APK sheets for the SGS2.
https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...1gdDJRekl4QmkyNmIzUmRvX2h3UDVkQXc&output=html
https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...=0Ag43oj7rLQP4dENZcmhGN0ZUa3pHSENVeXlqUm5vV0E
I always use them as a guide when I go around trying to see what I can remove. It may or may not be totally compatible with the Infuse, but I haven't had any problems so far.

OP...this thread has been moved. Q&A threads should be created in the Infuse 4G Q&A section. Not in Development.

Finished De-Bloating, thanks for the lists dht2005. They were a big help.

Please, please, please! Read the stickies in each of this forums subsections. There you will find all the answers.
I make it a rule for myself to always read the stickies when i come to a new forum.
Of course this won't make you a developer but at least you won't be totally clueless like you are now.
Read all the stickies and you will be confident in what you are doing.
If you can't take the time to do this then you probably shouldn't be bothering with custom roms either.
Good luck.

do not restore with kies u should have backed up in twrp/cwm before flashing cm10 and u don't have data probly Cuz your apns arnt set up right your not reading your just flashing your going to screw your phone up read every thing read the whole thread don't just skim though it.

well u were right about the apn... i needed to input the settings and kies wont let you restore it wont even pick up the phone because im not using touchwiz again and before i flash anything on my phone i do read the whole thread so yeh i cleared up my own problems. (Y)

Question problem with notifications

hello everyone
I recently bought a motorola edge s on ebay from china and I noticed that unless I open an app on regular time intervals the app times out and I don't get any notification until the next time I open the app
I tried messing with the settings and disabled battery optimization but it didn't work
I wonder if anyone has encountered this kind of problem and if it has to do that the device version is chinese
if so what can be a solution to it?
I read on the forum that flashing a global version of the android os is one solution to this problem, however I have no experience in going through this kind of process and need a step by step guide specific to this device
if there's an easier solution to a novice like me it will be much appreciated
thank you all in advance

I had the same issue. However your only option will be to flash. China's regulations on phones has the Chinese ROM so broken that it barely functions. Just do your research, and you'll be fine. Make sure you follow the steps to the letter though. And if you have issues, dont be afraid to ask questions in the related threads.
To give you an idea, the moment I flashed my Edge S to the global rom, it was like an entirely different phone. The experience was INSTANTLY better.

I would message this guy. I flashed my phone using LMSU as per his recommendation.

Nahhh.. you don't need to flash to global ROM to get proper notification.
I still find it funny that some people haven't explored built-in Motorola apps as they are intended to help you solve the problem without the need to flash.
MOTOROLA DEVICE SHILED app is there for you to configure your notifications.
Select the app and "Allow running in background" and notification will come in without opening the app.

I really appreciate your help but I already tried it and it doesn't really work
but thank you anyway

I have zero experience in coding and I never learned how to code so I'm not familiar with the process of flashing a new os like I do of installing windows or linux on a pc

he told me I have to unlock my bootloader (whatever that is), I tried to follow the guide but It just confused me

It does work.
Adding to that, you also NEED to put the apps in auto start.

There are several risks and consequences to unlocking the bootloader.
One is some banking apps will not work if the bootloader is unlocked.
Read the warnings on the unlocking page for more. (see link below)
If you still want to change the software channel from RetCN to another Retail channel like RetUS
See my instructions in this post.
