Hi guys im new to the forum and new to winmo. I recently purchased an HTC touch pro from verizon, and contrary to most reviews I like it so far. Anyway I need to do quite a few things, and dont know where to get started.
I need to:
- Update the phone (if i install a new ROM will this update the phone?) If not how/where do i get the updates?
- Install a new ROM - do i need to do this? what does it do which one and where?
- I need a youtube app - where/which?
- I would like any web browsers you think are better then opera 9.5 ( I heard Fennic was fast?)
- I also need step by step instructions to doing all of this please. sorry
PS: Do i need to install the software that comes with phone? if I do, or if I do any of the above, doese it waver the 30 day trial period?
Thanks for any help! sorry its so much!

First off - Why do you feel you have to install a new ROM - you say you are happy with the device. Are you saying this because many people here are flashing different ROM's to their devices so you think you should. You just got your device - you should really learn how to use it first and figure out what it can do for you. Afterwards if you feel you want to flash a new ROM, than the ROM you choose is based on your needs. Follow the advice already given to you and start reading (LOTS) If you don't you might kill your device before really getting to enjoy it.
Opera is a good browser, I have used it - but I am now using skyfire. I just find it quicker. Haven't used Fennic so can't say how it compares
Youtube app - You can watch Youtube using Skyfire - but there are several Youtube apps available throughout these forums. If you do a simple search with Keywod "youtube" you should be able to find some rather easily. I don't use any though because I can watch them though Skyfire.
You probably won't find anyone giving you step by step instructions for unlocking, flashing and installing apps etc... you have already been pointed to where you need to go to learn this for yourself so do some reading. If you have questions after having done some reading about something specific, then ask and people will help but not many people will hold your hand through this.
If you try returning your device within the 30 days with a custom (non official) ROM - you might have some troubles. You will have to reflash your stock ROM back to your device and lock it again I think.
I don't know what you mean - Do I have to install software that comes with the phone. There are many apps available in this forum which you can easily install (many are in .cab format for easy installation. Some in .exe format requiring installation from your computer to your device though activesinc and some are just (place on your device and run it) Take into consideration which version of WM you have on your device (some are specific to WM 6 some to 6.1 and some to 5. Also take into consideration your screan. VGA or WVGA or QVGA etc.. as running an app with resolution different than your device and it will not display properly. If you install an app and it does not work properly or you just don't like it - go to settings - System - Remove programs and uninstall the app that way (works only for cabs or exe's installed) The others you just navigate to where you placed the app and delete it. You cannot delete applications hard coded into your ROM (from what I have read)
There is much to learn in these forums and it is up to you to do some reading and learning and figure out for yourself what it is you really want on your device. As you can see from my signature - I am still running my stock WM 6 ROM.
If I sound like I am being harsh I appologize; however, I must point you to this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/faq.php
These are the rules and you need to read the rules - I notice that you created three seperate threads asking pretty much the same thing. This was the first thread started and was in the right section.
You created another one asking the exact same things after not having gotten the response you were looking for (bad move and a violation of the rules) and you created a third asking the same thing but not in quite as much detail (violation of the rules)
We are (most of us) are helpful community; however, you must do some work yourself to learn as much as you can and this will require lots and lots of reading. If you don't do the reading and learning for yourself (you just will never understand your device and what it is capable of and your next post will be titled
"Help - I bricked my device" - You don't want this and neither do we. Read and if you need clarification (because it is a lot to learn and can be confusing) then ask questions about your specific uncertainties. We will be glad to help (except I can't help with flashing ROM's because I havn't ever done it yet) lol
Good luck and enjoy your new device
thanks for all the help man, i should have done more research, the wiki is kinda confusing to me though and i wasnt sure of the different procedures to flashing etc. sorry. One question though, I was looking at downloading a pack of apps from bwone.com called the bowman pack pro, i cant really find much info on it, besides the apps it contains and therefor am unsure of how to install it.

I checked out the website you mentioned and checked out hte Bowman pack pro - Sorry that I really can't tell you much about it or the apps included; however, if it is completely free - give it a shot - it is probably a cab install which is easy enough to install and uninstall. If it is not free or only trial version then use the search function under your name up top to try to find prorams which are equivelant but free on this site. You really should be able to find most things you need through this site. I don't want to discredit the website you mentioned. I have never seen it before so I will leave that at that. I know this site and there is much available for everyone here.
You want cool music players seach S2P or Mortplayer or TCPMP or the new Nitrogen player (all free) or core player (pay) all are really good in my opinion.
TCPMP also plays videos really well (as does core player but Core Player has other codecs I think) There is a special version of TCPMP to run on your device I believe - Use search above.
Check out development and hacking section of this forum for all your application needs. Apps do not have to be designed specifically for your device as I have already mentioned above.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=260
This is link to Development and hacking section where you will find most of the apps and ROMS developed for all devices - Remember ROMS are device specific - Apps are not device specific in general - Check out apps that interest you and read the developers description and program details - It should tell you everything you need to know. Read also throughout the thread to see what others say about the program - How it runs on their devices, bugs found, fixes etc....
Like already said before - There is a lot of reading to do - This is a reading forum but it will allow you to enjoy your device to the max.....
Good luck.
So I know XDAers are resourceful and supportive of community efforts. Let's write this guide together! (Especially if you're looking for something to do during the blackout

Please help me write this. I know I would've loved to have something like this when I was getting into Android modding back in the day.
Also, suggestions for a new title are welcome. Something that says Super General Android Modding Guide for Noobs or something.

Hi there,
I just started reading your guide, which looks really brilliant.
And in the spirit of open source and peer review, if I can make any positive contributions to it I WILL!
Now back to reading

Many thanks. This guide help me a lot. Hope it will be written on.

Thread closed.
Don't bother complaining about the 10-post rule here. I will request regular thread cleaning as necessary. This is not a thread you can use to build up your post count.
1. There are other constructive threads with that topic in the About xda-developers.com forum. I will happily debate you on the matter there.
--- Better alternative to postcount limit in development forums
--- A possible simple solution for Dev thread "Spam"
2. It is not going away because it is (mostly) for spam control.
Fallen Spartan said:
The 10 post rule was put in place to make new users think, and hopefully contribute and help others by making useful posts rather than the usual crap like "thanks", "kewl" etc or ask questions which have been asked countless times before. They still have access to dev forums, just cannot post in them. Its not a massive restriction and to provide 10 useful/helpful posts is not hard.

- Fallen Spartan - Moderator Committee
Getting 10 quality posts is not that difficult and doesn't take that long if someone puts in a little effort. However, I understand if someone doesn't feel like they have time to do that.
That being said, I promise to post your question and post any answers received back from the appropriate ROM thread.........IF
You are asking something development related or some technical question about the ROM itself.
You are producing a mod for the ROM.
You want to enter a bug report.
That is what the development threads are supposed to be used for.
Other types of questions generally belong in the device Q&A (Question and Answer) forums. Not the dev threads. That is why there is no post count limit on the Q&A forums. If you really want the best device specific help, try reading the stickied guides in your devices Q&A forum, then post there if necessary.
Each one of these questions will be evaluated individually. If your question is uniquely ROM-related, I will ask it.
Your post must include:
1. A detailed device configuration: ROM, kernel, firmware, radio, mods, etc...etc...
---- This info should be in your signature
2. A list of things you have searched, read, done, and tried.
---- Expecting to come in here and get a quick freebie? Nothing in life is free, you have to do a little work here.
3. Terms you have searched for and where you searched.
---- Which forums? Which websites? Exact terms and different combinations of terms tried?
4. Your agreement that you have read ALL of the dev's initial posts in said dev thread. TWICE.
---- I mean read, not just skimmed over. Good devs put a lot of work into their first page posts and keep them updated, many times with FAQs and other helpful troubleshooting tips.
5. Your agreement that you have read the stickied guides in your devices General, Q&A, and Development forums.
---- Many people have put in countless hours of their personal time to enter in this knowledge for you to learn it and apply it successfully to your XDA experience and phone, and the mods have put them at the top of the subforum pages so you don't have to work to find them. Please don't waste their time or yours.
6. If you are having a problem, what exact steps brought you to the point you are at?
---- Remember, the more details you can give means that it is more likely your question will get answered correctly.
7. What steps have you tried to resolve the problem on your own?
---- See points 2. and 6. above.
8. What logs do you have?
---- See point 6. above. And this: [GUIDE] How to give constructive feedback to developers And this: [Tutorial] How to Logcat
9. The exact question you want to post
If you do these things I honestly believe that you will not need to post your question as it will already have been answered, but if not, I will enter your questions on any dev thread you want to post in but cannot post in, and post any and all answers received back here.
Thanks mate!
Also for the newbies: Any other question must go to Q&A section and not in here in General, wrong section threads will be moved or closed.

I have a 100Mbps download and upload speed, the newest MIUI release ("miui_INC_2.8.10") has been uploaded to quite a few foreign websites that only allow download speeds of up to around 22.5KB/s.
I've taken it upon myself to download the ROM file, upload it to my personal DropBox but also, more importantly, my personal file hosting server, here. (Link will be LIVE/ACTIVE in ~30 seconds from this post.)
Please post both of these links (note that they're the full URL, I'm not trying to get any money out of them, just trying to supply download links) in [THIS] thread.

Welcome, thank you. I want to be clear on what you are trying to do first. You are trying to be a mirror site, correct? I see that the OP there set up a mirror on DevHost a few days ago, but if you want to offer secondary mirrors then I can post there and ask for his permission.
Yes, I am trying to supply two North American server mirrors. The DevHost is a nice mirror, but still their bandwidth only allocates maybe 150KB/s per download.
The DropBox mirror supports up to, at least, 3.5MB/s. (Yes, MegaBytes) while I've downloaded at a full 12.5MB/s (100Mbps) from my personal hosting site.
Thank you.
EDIT: And as a.. "complimentary gift" of sorts for supplying these two mirrors (of great quality), would it at all be possible to remove my posting restrictions even though I have yet to reach my "10 quality posts"?
See, I don't visit the website often enough to bother with posting in Off-Topic forums, or "General Discussion." If you've noticed, I'm intelligent, and what I have to post is relevant, and most of the time useful, to the thread.
I've also been a member of some other forums for years, one which I will soon be "celebrating" my 10 year anniversary. I'm a developer of many Windows-based programs and I have before had fixes for some of the bugs for the ROMs posted here, but was aggravated that I could not post due to lack of post count and decided to just not post (not like I really had a choice.)
All I ask is that you consider my request.
Regards,

I will be happy to post this in the dev thread for you as long as the OP is fine with it, I appreciate you taking time to do that work of getting everything set up. I will write to him right now to ask and I will copy you on the PM so he knows exactly what we are requesting.
I wish I could assist but I do not have any power with regards to the posting restrictions, that would have to be done by one of the moderators. You can feel free to write to one of them, but at this point given that you are just 4 posts away I think their answer would be to suggest to post a few more times.
Update: PM is sent to the OP and you, hopefully he will reply back soon with a yes answer and I will post your links.

A link to the specific ROM thread would be helpful. There are two RemICS ROMs there.
[ROM][PORT][Android 4.0.4] RemICS v1.5.3 - SIII look [05-08-2012]
[ROM][PORT][ICS][4.0.4] RemICS v1.5.3 (FIXED) - SIII Look & Feel [20-08-2012]
Both of them appear to be using DevHost, but since I am not able to get to my files on DevHost right now either it seems to be a problem there. Typically they get it resolved in a few minutes so if you try again in a little while it should be ok. The first ROM above has a mirror here on RapidShare if that helps.
Meanrom 2.6 - Issue with Cam Mod and Beats Mod
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1645211
After following the specific instructions in the forum as how to install the cam mod and beats mod (specifically post #6171)
Beats still does not show up anywhere on the phone. Someone else had this problem as well, but it was not responded to.
How can we verify that we successfully installed the cam and the beats mods?
Thanks!

I am at work right now and today is incredibly busier than normal so I can't dig into this at the moment, I am sorry. I will look more at it when I get home in a few hours. I don't see a specific way to test the camera but I would suggest taking some pictures and looking at the size. They should be significantly larger in size with the HQ mod. For Beats, I believe that you can start the stock music player up and plug headphones in and you should see a red "b" icon on the notification bar.

Here's the original post that post was based on, with links to the versions of the mods required. If the coolexe v3 music mod, which includes beats, is installed properly you should have an Beats Audio option in your settings menu and you will need to go into that and check off at least the wired headphones, and optionally bluetooth, before you will see the beats notifications when playing songs in HTC Music.

Thank you!! Most appreciated sir.
Thank you for your help with getting it posted.
I didn't see a beats option in my settings, even though I followed those steps.
If you have any suggestions on how to get it working it would be greatly appreciated.
PS The rom is also missing the sprinttv app. Installing it from Google Play and running it says that the app needs an update and then crashes. Is there an APK for the sprinttv that will work with Meanrom 2.6?
Is there a zip of the missing apps that we can install through recovery?

Well, I have to say this is the first time on this site that I have made several attempts to contact someone to convey an offer of free hosting/mirroring and been completely ignored. I have seen the guy online several times but no reply. I sent him a PM to ask him for at least the courtesy of a reply, but nothing. He is online now but appears to be ignoring it.
So my advice is to not waste your time and bandwidth any further on him or his ROM. I sincerely apologize to you, I was hoping to have a good positive demonstration here by doing it the right way and asking before simply posting mirror links as I have seen others do in the past, but to be ignored just demonstrates that someone does not wish to be helped, and therefore it is very likely that he will receive little help in the future when he does need it.
Badly need some assistance, Will be greatly appreciated. Thankyou

Model Number : A501

Build Number: Acer_A501_4.064.01_AAP_OPTUS
Aspect Ratio: 1280x800
Read, Searched, Done & Tried:
Google for a good few hours, Searching countless A501 root links to find 90% of sites were for the A500. YouTubing, wording it in multiple ways found a guy that claimed to be able to root the A501 and A500. Watched the vid and the more I watched the less I trusted him, Clicked the download links in his description and was redirected to sites that didn't look trustworthy.
I haven't physically tried anything to do with rooting yet until I know more about it or find a guide specifically for the A501.
Searched keywords in this site and just about every forum to do with android, found one or two things on here claiming to do the A501 root but I don't have ICS and I'm not exactly sure how to get it, I'm pretty sure my device came as 3.1 or 3.0.1 Honeycomb when I bought it (It's on a Plan) I THINK I updated it to 3.2.1 Honeycomb but can't remember.
Tried multiple apps to help me getting the controller to work for Modern Combat 3 but most of them are for Bluetooth or like the Joystick Center 6 & Joy2Touch (Which I downloaded here) they need rooting - (I'd like to be able to use Joy2Touch without rooting but it doesn't seem possible?)
Quite a few hours went into research and all I know about this is that I need to revert my tablet back to 3.0.1 or 3.1 to root it, I also seen a post saying something like Bootloader will make it difficult - I'm not sure if it's on my device or not.
I have not installed any roms or mods on my device yet.
Terms searched: "A501 root" "How-to root Acer Iconia A501" "How to setup xbox wired controller Modern Combat 3" "Modern Combat 3 Controller support?" I cant remember exactly every term I searched but it was all pretty much the same just worded differently and I used Google, Youtube, Posted questions on answers.yahoo.com and this site but nobody has replied.

Nothing that helps with the rooting of A501 - I just searched multiple times in the search bar.
Hey guys.
Looked around the forum a bit but didn't find my answer, trying to play Modern Combat 3 with my wired xbox controller, shoot, change weapon and zoom work. Just can't figure out how to get the analog sticks to aim and walk for me.
(Controller works fine for other games like Dead trigger)
I have the USB/BT Joystick center 6 app and the joy2touch but when i use joy2touch it just says "root access failed"
Is there an easy fix for this? What do I have to do to get this working, would love to play the game with my controller.
Thanks guys.

Hey, thank you for posting and including all the info. I am trying to look into this right now, but I am at work so it is a bit difficult to sneak in too much XDA time. I will spend time on it this evening if I am unable to find anything else. Just out of curiosity, did you post this in the A500 forums? I just PM'ed a mod there to see if A501 questions were also included in the A500 forums so hopefully he will be able to get back to me soon on that.

Here's the original post that post was based on, with links to the versions of the mods required. If the coolexe v3 music mod, which includes beats, is installed properly you should have an Beats Audio option in your settings menu and you will need to go into that and check off at least the wired headphones, and optionally bluetooth, before you will see the beats notifications when playing songs in HTC Music.

Please let ramjet73 know as to the MeanRom 2.6 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1645211 his post 6171
works exactly as long as you first flash the RUU 2.89. If you don't flash the RUU and bring your phone 100% back to stock his method leads to continual white screen (HTC) or constant rebooting.

Hey, after checking around, I think your best bet is to post your question in the A500 Q&A forum as there are other questions I saw in there for the A501. You have it well written up and I think you well get help and replies there since you have really tried and people will see and respect that.
Well, first I have to admit, it took me some sticky reading digging to find this thread, but it's a very welcome idea.
I had made this original post here, probably against my better judgment and forum policy, but I'm hoping this can significantly help:

That post also links to the discussion around lost IMEI's and being stuck on roaming on the Verizon GS3. If you read through the thread, you'll see that the developer is still attempting to ascertain root cause of the lost IMEI and/or stuck roaming. My post is an attempt to add a very specific circumstance to help guide in the debugging of that situation.
I would like to follow up with additional information around the ERI and post a conjecture around devices with non-matching MIN and device phone numbers, to see if any of that might have something to do with or might shed some light on the stuck in roaming mode.
