The Zio crapped out for the second time in less then two weeks so I went to replace it and lost it in the process. So now I have the Ascend 2. 2.3 is ok. Getting ready to root this. Spz0, Mattix, and everyone here keep up the good work. Hopefully we can meet up on another phone someday. Thanks for all your help! Good luck with 2.3, I took the easy way. This phone already has speed issues. Plus I miss my theme and Vtl already.

Hope you enjoy your new phone. And if you want to try speeding it up a bit check Zio Development for Juwe11's Ram Script which should work on all phones. I created a fairly detailed thread and also linked to the original post for more information about it.

I was seriously thinking about getting this one, I would like to hear some pros and cons on it. Of course I may just go big time and get the new Samsung indulge. 1gHz processor FTW !!!
Space is an issue. And being so new is as well. Although this has more space then the Zio. No root yet. Do have Netflix, Flash, and the latest version of VTL all working great. 2.3 is ok, nothing to special. It also has a sense like function. Which is cool.

Is the keyboard better then the zio? I have been scoping out the ascend 2 as well as the newer kyocera echo both looking good in my opinion. Echo only if flashable to cricket though. Im getting real tired of the zio keyboard and froyo i loved gingeryoshi 1.2 on my mt3g lol.

Sinisin, I'm going to pm you with a link so you can try to obtain root access on your new phone and you can probably port CM7 from the Ascend. And since it's built for a lower end system it should fly, that is after a bit of work on the kernel,

I don't have a computer to work on anymore. So no getting my hands dirty :-(. But it's running good on vtl and has space and processor lag issues. Definitely needs root and link2sd. Optimized kernel. Development support. But comes with swype and docs to go for free. Dtg is like a 15 dollar application. Courtesy of huawei. Screen could be tighter. Not so accurate. 1400mah battery is ok so far.

Hi guys. I picked up an original Moto Droid (well, had it, but not working on cricKet) for $70 at a Verizon kiosk at the mall. It was a steal. Like-new condition, and I flashed over to CM7. Pretty sweet. I still have my ZIO for now, and I will try to help out here as much as I can, but my wife is making me sell it after I'm finished putting the Droid together. :/
Anyway, I'm not too apprehensive about flashing experimental stuff, because I'll probably just flash back to stock before I sell it, so let me know, yeah?

My Zio dive bombed as well
I screwed my Zio up so I went out and bought the Samsung Indulge by Cricket to replace it. Mostly the 1ghz cpu in the phone was why I bought it.
So far totally stock it seems to be running really sweet with much much less mistyped words unlike the Zio with any keyboard you use with it.
Only problem I'm having now is trying to get it rooted and see about some custome roms for it. I found a website, http://androidforums.com/indulge-al...-scripts-indulge-r910-r915-win-mac-linux.html
that is working on such things as getting cwm and such working on the phone. I'm no where near knowlegable enough to figure that stuff out myself I tried miserably on the Zio.
If anyone has this phone from Cricket and knows how to get it rooted as well as getting the usb drivers to work for my pc to reconize the phone can you help me out with it?
Thank you in advance for any help. I'm still searching around trying to find out about the phone in hopes of what I may find in the forum here about it.

I too have crossed over to the ascend2 and after only half a day no root and complete stock this phone is way better than the Zio hands down. This is everything it should have been and more. My only complaint thus far is the screen resolution doesnt seem as crisp as the Zio but I can live with that. Now I am off to root it.

Root it then play with the LCD density in build.prop and maybe you can get a crisper display.

Came home from work to my new nexus 7! I gotta say opening the box was a pain in the ass but well worth the patience. Overall I have to admit I am very impressed with this device, incredibly fast and truly "buttery" smooth. Jelly bean is incredible and this is my first "pure" android experience and so far so good. At first I was concerned about the quality of the display and the "washed" out look but contrary to what everyone thinks I happen to think it looks great! And fortunately I am very grateful that my n7 doesn't have the screen displacement that everyone has been talking about. And I really didn't want to go through the trouble of returning mine to Google play and waiting for another one lol. I come from a family that absolutely loves apple phones, laptops, and ipads. I'm sort of an android junkie and love the freedom that comes with it, with that being said I figure this would make a perfect first tablet for me to own and after extensive use of my families ipads In my personal opinion I have to say that the n7 is superior in many ways. Great tablet, specs, and price! So kudos to Asus and Google for bringing this bad boy to the market!

If you could make a nandroid backup, copying the file to a computer for storage would allow you to wipe the tablet and then copy the file back and restore.

Making a nandroid didn't even cross my mind when I did it, I wouldn't worry..... anyways, don't you need an unlocked bootloader or root to install a recovery to make a nandroid? Just my thoughts, I ,might be wrong.

On mine I did a simple adb backup and restore. Took about an hour including set up(never done it before) and it was a painless way to keep all apps and app data as well as settings. Anyone looking to unlock and not have to deal with losing app data should Google it and check out out.

You needed to be unlocked to root. I just unlocked my boot loader, no problem. To do a backup, use the backup for apps in wugfresh's toolkit, you don't need root to do it.

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.

It does matter which carrier you have as I made that mistake and was in bootloop which you dont want to do.

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.

by using ROM tool box (by Jrummy) it’s an awesome app but I decided to play around with the custom font option and when I tried to install another custom font it decided to reboot my phone to the LG logo and from there the screen goes black with the little indicator light on the upper right of the phone flashing multiple colors.
Fixes that i have attempted to apply where:
-multiple reboots nothing happened same results
-let the battery drain out of the phone then let it charge for a bit and restart it with no luck
-go into recovery mode to clear partition and reboot, but no luck
-go into recovery mode and apply factory reset but no luck
At the end of all these attempts I continue to get the LG LOGO and after that has played out i get a black screen with my notification indicator flashing multiple different colors.
I bet if I had an unlocked boot loader with a custom recovery I wouldn't be in this situation right now. Now I have to go thru hyelton Guide on how to revert back to Stock Firmware, and to my new-bish eyes it doesn't look easy.
