Publicity for our phone

So lately I've been asking developers for specific main stream roms so far this is what I've got accomplished but anyone just remember devs are ppl too and don't be afraid to ask them for a rom if they are not busy and have access to the device most will gladly help out
Trying to find out if 3D Max roms are flashable for us - 6/19/2012 - completed (possible) used Acura 3dmax kernel and rom
Asked for Ubuntu - already works with background. Img and vnc - COMPLETED
Asked for miui - someone is currently working on this (WIP)
Asked for AOKP - they need the device
asked to get our picture up on the main cyanogenmod devices site - they said it will be up soon its on there Todo list - COMPLETED
Asked about CM9 - they have alpha port but awaiting certain drivers to ensure a clean smooth rom
Any other ideas you can ask around to the devs on here and different sites and see what you can get out of them lets see if we can make a great phone one of those that gets the attention it deserves

Missing DSP firmware news came directly from Ricardo himself, so it should be confirmed

Yeah we also would like to have in our hands the omapflash for o3D.. many users have/had to send their phones to LG for boot repair. but the Gnex has a 7mb script that repairs the bootloader in 2 mins.. LG changes whole board

I thought I saw that on the boards the other day actually

Dont think so but as long as you won't try too many things you should always have recovery to be able to restore Stock ROM.
Have a look at my thread for a couple of backups
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680570

By, "too many things" do you mean quantity of flashes or risky development?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app

As a fellow samsung owner i know what u are talking about. The answer is no. And in fact, unfortunelty in order for u to restore from most soft bricks, you have to unlock your bootloader by using an app released by asus that unlocks your bootloader and sends your serial number to them in the process which will permenantly void your warranty. Once u unlock then u can install a custom recovery and install custom roms. And even still, if u are bricked to where a custom recovery cant fix it...u are screwed. If you are not unlocked...u are screwed if the default recovery wont fix it.

uh, my heart just sank lol

Yea i feel ya. This is by far the worst measures ive seen to deter unlocking the bootloader. The original transformer tf101 had the ability to nvflash which entails putting the tab in an alternate boot mode, connect it to usb and by adb it would recover from any soft brick u could throw at it. Unfortunetly they got rid of this feature with the 300
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2

They didn't get rid of it. It was just recently released by Nvidea. It was posted in the Portal that AndroidRoot.mobi got it working for the Transformer Prime. It requires a modified bootloader, so you can't just use it as-is. I'm sure that either they or someone equally as talented can get it going for us soon. I don't think the Prime and 300 are too different from each other.

[Q] how to and what to do?

okay my aunt has an
AT&T LG Phoenix P-505 phone with Android 2.2 on it (Here is the phone)
i was thinking of putting JellyBean on it from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1811325
BUT i dont know what i need or what to do for this phone............... PLEASE help with step-by-step of how to........ i would like everything to be on the Micro SD-card (like the Nook color can be), if it can't be than thats fine!. like i said i am in need of a step-by-step how to
Please & Thanks

A step by step guide will be unlikely. Making a rom comes from experience and knowledge. It will take alot of work to get that done on your aunts phone. Honestly i don't think its worth it, there is so much involved in trying to develop a rom for a phone. I would just experiment with the phone, do some theming and become use to how the phone works and functions, remember...its all experience

okay.............
well can someone help me make a back-up of the phone, then help me understand how to change it to the CM10? from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1811325

No
i don't know how to or where to get the stuff to do it, i found a little guide(HERE) and where you download the CM10 rom from is here same for its "source" of the info on there..... but it nor here tells me or helps point me to where i can get ClockworkMod Recovery installed to be able to root it(dont know if thats needed or not)...... so thats why im looking for help
my aunts phone has a mind of its own.... removes photos, music, contact and so-on when ever it wants turned on & turned off, but if i was to root it with cm10 i know it would fix it all(the phone has been used by many ppl in her family that have messed it up)

Well
Root your phone by this method

Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium

thanks for the info
what are the downfalls/cons of rooting this?(im the type of person who likes to know what the outcome can become)

Advantages
1)You can install a custom ROM
2) You can upgrade or downgrade your phone
3)You can link apps to SD or make a part of your SD card internal memory
4)Performance will be better than stock ROM
Disadvantages
1)You can Soft brick your phone
But you can also unbrick by some methods (This will happen if you don't follow instructions carefully )
2) You can hard brick your phone
(You will have to buy another phone or replace your motherboard)
3)You void your warranty by rooting.

You'll like it after flashing custom ROMS which have more features than the stock OS you have.
Enjoy rooting & upgrading your phone....

[Q] Getting a bootloop, but I've never rooted or anything like that.

My sidekick has been recently just replaying the start-up screen. Once in a while it'll fully boot but then it just shuts off after a few seconds. I haven't messed around with it at all so I can't think of what may be causing this. If anyone could help that would be amazing. Thanks a lot!

Could be many things, if you debugging enabled try to get a logcat. Or if you don't mind loosing your data use hiemdall or Odin to flash back to stock fully
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

Do I not need to be rooted for odin?

Nope, just put phone in download mode. If unfamiliar on how to use this I suggest hiemdall, Adam Outler made a one click hiemdall package which you can find in the first page or so of developer section, very very easy to use

The stock phone has issues id suggest you root an flash a nexus rom should fix a lot of issues
If you need text or anything "backup your mobile" or something like that works amazing

Some users also have had issues with the display ribbon cable coming loose at the hinge. You may also want to check out your battery..
Did you install any new software? There are apps out there that will cause boot loops on Froyo/Gingerbread.
Good luck. I miss the keyboard on my Sidekick, but I don't miss that crummy Samsung abomination that powers it.

[Q] Noob..love phone, love customizations even more

Like I said I am new at this whole android thing....love it, But I heard it was much more customizable.....cant find a root for At&t One X software 3.18....I've seen posts but are unsure if they work for my software. Without rooting is there a way to customize say the status bar notifications....(without Omega, worst program ever) what are my options for customizing I use nova launcher prime now...but even it only allows so much, is there a root? is there a program that will allow me to customize this phone to fit me?
Any help appreciated

Nope. Root is essential to customizing such things. All I can say is search search and don't forget to SEARCH and follow directions word for word. Good luck friend

Yeah...I don't wanna paperweight this thing and all the root files I find are 2.2 or lower....already bricked a Moto atrix 2...can't afford another incident, wife will kill me....I found one that uses adb but it requires SDK and I don't really know if I trust myself to do that...if someone knows of a root for 3.18 please share

no.
The OTA should be rolling out within a month or so I imagine.. hopefully you won't have to wait too long.

You must not have looked very hard, there is a root exploit for your firmware version.

My index thread found as one of the sticky threads at the top of General (also linked in the top post in Development) has all that you need, and clearly calls out which root method to use for 3.18: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
Read up and understand what you are doing, before attempting anything.

Ok....so I followed the thread and re-read it over and over....found the android sdk method as well downloaded the SDK package with eclipse, still following instructions tried to test adb server and making sure phone was recognized
....and it never does register, I have debugging on....I have open source downloads on, the proper drivers for the phone....I got onexchopper, busybox, and ownage all in the same folder as the adb....when I plug the phone in to the usb post it all reads....HTC SYNC off, I plug in to the frost usb ports, would that matter?
