And the firefox os too, although I dont think that ones out yet.

If an unlocked bootloader isn't necessary, it can be done I presume

Yeah but most likely we might be able to port it to our device as seen in other forums they were able to flash Ubuntu touch through Safestrap 3 recovery

It's based on CM 10.1 so not until that works, I would assume.

Haha nice!
I actually got the itch to try it today and flashed the razor hd one to my Atrix HD. Phone does not connect to cell towers and wifi does not work. Though it does boot up and I can play around. :highfive:

Yeah just hope it f**in works

Could you give a link to this? I cannot find it.
Nevermind. I found it. And for being alpha/beta, it is absolutely wonderful.

Glad you found it. I was pretty impressed as well. Would be sweet to get data working on it.
I'm guessing you had the same issues I did?

Yeah. It only lagged when I had a bunch of apps open too.

LOL, you must not be looking in the right place.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices/xt926
In a nutshell:
flash this in CWM
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-to.../current/saucy-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip
and this:
http://goo.im/devs/Hashcode/xt926/phablet
Due to missing files, its not really a flash you would be able to use as a phone...but if you are heart set on seeing how the ubuntu touch os feels, go for it...
I am actually doing my first build with the necessary files to get everything working right now... Goal is mainly to just get radio working so I can actually use this OS as a phone. I have copious notes, so if things don't work, there were steps I skipped due to my lack of knowledge and they caused issues....So I should be able to slowly find answers and get a radio working build in time...
Will update later after this build is done and I try flashing it. Answer will probably be, did not work, but I'm trying! :good:

It did not work, though I had some good discussion on fixing the things I need to...
I'll keep working on it and post in the dev section when I have something that is working.

Booted up the build a few posts above and it's pretty damn nice!! Once everything gets won't which I'm sure it will eventually I'm definitely gonna give it a go

FTFY
Been running hashcodes build for a few weeks now
Its fun to mess around with. Battery drains pretty quick. WiFi works so that's probably why.
If anyone installs they should wipe system and factory reset before flashing.
Flash the Ubuntu phablet zip first and Hashcodes build second.

New MIUI User with Questions

Just installed MIUI-20120608 on my Bionic, switching from GummyNex 1.2. I like it so far but I THINK I need a little schooling on how to set it up.
First, the reason I switched in case it matters, I loved GummyNex but the video recorder never worked, I guess it is an option that they never got to work from what I read, I can't seem to get it to work on the MIUI rom either although I want to believe it will since it seems to recognize it has a video recorder.
Secondly, I am having some issues getting the data to work, I saw online that there are some steps to go through to get it to work (go to phone info>switch to GSM only; go to setting>mobile networks>CMDA/LTE....) which works but everytime my phone reboots I have to repeat the process. There has to be a way to set it up once and thats it.
Thirdly, there are a LOT of flexibility with this ROM, AWESOME. But I don't know where to start, what all the options mean to me. Instead of trial and error I am hoping some of the experienced users could share some of the best "setups" with me?
Thanks guys!
.... Miui? Where did you find that rom? Every Dev related to Miui stopped working on that ROM sadly which means its out of date now. Unless I'm out of the loop on Miui LOL.

Cm10

Hey there. New to the one and was wondering if there were any cm10 roms that can be flashed with s-on
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
As far as I understand it, any ROM can be flashed s-on without issue on the One (caveat below). It's different than the 3D. But the revone method of s-off is super easy so it's worth doing (see my web signature for a link). Also, from my understanding, some people have bricked their Ones trying to flash AOSP ROMs. I think s-off people have better luck with it.

The Sense ones. I use the Team 420 one, but I'm biased. The Team D3rp one is really good too. I haven't tried any others though so try others and find your favorite.

The Two That I know of and have done my self are Viper and cyanogenmod. I have not take the step to s off yet as I am very new to this and am learning before I do just as you described (Brick my phone). You can easily find these two ROMs here on this site.
ViperROM v1.1.0
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2241016
CyangenMod
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=nightly&device=m7spr
and that is where I got the ones I used as well.
It does matter which carrier you have as I made that mistake and was in bootloop which you dont want to do.
For information on that see this thread:

FWIW I was one of the people who got bricked, and I and some others helped to compile a list of victims. The last brick was on 6/29 after which the kernel was really overhauled.
Most (including me) are calling the bug squashed.

Bricking a phone would def suck! but i was under the impression, and maybe im wrong, that there is usually a way to fix it. Again im no pro but i kind of jumped into the whole rooting thing without knowing ANYTHING about it on my 3D and never seemed to mess it up more than having to flash a new RUU at worst. anyway i really love the IllusionRom. but cant seem to get google wallet to work, which is kind of a bummer. but i also really love Sense 5, and dont mind using stock one bit. I suggest going for it and checking everything out, more than likely you'll be fine. best of luck

A brick can never be recovered. It must be replaced. A BORK can pretty much always be fixed via ADB.
Also, I heard there was a workaround for the wallet issue. Just search it up. It has something to do with the build . prop.

Or if not ADB, judicious use of fastboot and RUU. I cut my teeth on a Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, and after a three-month long recovery process, nothing the HTC One can pull is likely to faze me anymore.
Anyway, there are certain devices that can be recovered from a low-level brick (assuming by brick we're saying a device is completely non-responsive to input, hardware and software wise) but it's pretty involved at the best of times.

Oh Fun :)

Look what my phone has gone and done...

When I went out to get device back in Nov, I was between this and the G2. I chose this after the Optimus G's inherent fun....not to mention that device was released 3 months before this one, yet is still on 4.1.2. This device is being updated at rocket ship speed, which is a HUGE change from what we all experienced on the Photon...LOL

Well, it may be some time. I have it booting, touch works well, navigation is great. Looks like a great DD...once all working. However, as with all new forays, there are some bugs...some easier than others to squash.
1) Camera preview works, seems to take a picture, but hell if I can figure out where it went...LOL
2) Networking is NG
3) Cellular is NG
4) Audio is NG (this could be a big one, as if you look at the way it needs to be configured, it requires writing of a UCM mixer config for the deviec...LOL

Yea the photon turned into a joke sadly. But the good thing about the Optimus G and G2.. They may be behind on updates but both are updated by great devs with the latest version as quick as any other device with all features working nearly 100%. The G2 already has 4.4 internationally and it also helps that the N5 is pretty much the same hardware kind of like the atrix and photon.

Well, before I could do any sort of collaboration, I have to get the source I've got building upped. It's really screwey how they have this thing set up....took 3 different tries to get the right files to actually repo sync. Their instructions seem quite incomplete in some areas, and are totally GONE in others (like the links to getting VoiceCall and HiFi audio working...links are page not found).
Once I get it synced remotely, I'll be more than happy to have some others pitch in. I have a feeling it's going to take a few of us to do it any way.
But for now...if anyone knows how to write UCM mixer files for alsa, I'd love to have some pointers. Their explanation is nearly NIL...LOL
Seeing this put a really big smile on my face

[Q] Ubuntu Touch Atrix HD

Okay.
Has anyone actually gotten Ubuntu touch working on the atrix HD?
They have it running on the similar moto devices like the razr and stuff. So....?
Thanks, this would be really cool if anyone could come out and say it works.
Tried it a month ago... it baaaaaaaaaarely works... the one compiled for our phone is all but a proof of concept. Avoid it.

Complete Cleaning & Advice on AHD

Hey guys, I wanted to ask for some feedback. I've owned the Atrix HD since it's release date. It is now my work phone and I use it mainly for phone calls, text, calendar, and navigation. It has been wiped, flashed, wiped, flashed, flash flash flashed more times than I could ever count. The Eb40 is starting to swell and my volume rockers no longer work.
The biggest issue I have is that now, no matter what rom I'm on, I have proximity sensor issues and screen on/off issues. Is there a way to do a complete cleaning and really restart from scratch. Not being able to answer calls, or hang up calls is a big deal to me, since it's a work phone. I've been considering retiring the AHD and getting a Moto E just for work, but if I can restart and get it working right, I'd consider keeping it. I have the desk & car dock so this is a great work phone, but I just need it to work.
Any tips would be much appreciated.
I still have my AHD XDA Favorite in IE. I haven't used my AHD since the beginning of the year when I handed it down to my son. I'd recently done a bump to Lollipop, and all was well. Yesterday morning, his phone froze up. It, too has had the EB40 battery mod done ages ago, and it's worked flawlessly. The screen froze up and stayed on all day until last night until it finally died. Never got hot - much to my surprise, but I was scratching my melon over why it froze up.
Long story short; we put it on the charger and it took a charge just fine. Worked fine this morning, but after coming home from the pool; he went to turn it on and zilch! I don't suppose there's any interest left in the AHD that anyone's going to read either of these or respond. But; if I come across a smoking gun, I'll let you know. Likewise; if you know anything about repairing them, drop me a line.
Thanks!

Thank you. I have it downloaded if you want to take it off your Drive. I went back to stock and it's working good. You think it's ok to now flash back to KitKat, or should I just leave it alone? Will going back custom give me the same issues again?
