What hboot are you running? If it is 1.02 or something then you will not get S-Off. If you are on .52 then refer to the s-off thread in development.

Depending on your HBoot version, if it's above 0.52 (or something close to .5), then you can't get S-OFF. If it is 0.52, then see this thread for instruction and stuff: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=798168

When you power down your phone, remove the battery and wait 30 seconds to allow to to be truely powered off. Replace the battery then hold the volume down rocker and press the power button. It should bring you to the hboot/fastboot screen. At the top has the info you need. Good luck.

Permanent recovery

If this has been answered somewhere else, then my apologies.
Does anyone know if there is a way to get clockwork recovery to stick yet? I know there was a problem with not being able to write to that partition due to the spl, but I read a twitter post saying something about slide users updating their recovery image the other day and was hoping someone could clarify.
Thanks in advance.

Yeah, I figured that would have made much bigger splash, but hey, dream big, right? Thanks, mang.

As of now, there isn't a perminant recovery without update.zip. waiting on new kernel in order to do so.

Settings question with cm6

I just got root and flashed cm6. I was redownloading apps, one which was till touch to talk. The app will not work because in my settings, about phone, mobile number, it says unknown. How do I get it to say my number? The area is greyed out so I cannot click. Thanks in advance.

Try a fresh install some people said that helped or try a different rom and see if it shows up if it doesn't call tmo and talk to them and say your number isn't showing up in settings it could be on tmo end

Maybe I will try a different rom. I called tmo but they didn't help cause they had to send an ota update which doesn't go through to the phone. Any recommended roms?

Click to collapse
Well try or the crmod updated rom its the closest to stock so if it doesn't do it then it is a tmo problem

Ahh .. found the fix. Cyanogen actually implemented a setting in cm6 due to this problem. Go to settings-call settings-additional settings-then number. Once you type it in, it writes it to the sim card.

i've done this, however if you reboot the phone or put it into airplane mode the number gets wiped and you need to reprogram it.
Oh. Well thanks for the info. I can live with that for now. Then again, I don't ever shut my phone off. Lol

lol me either, except when i'm on the train - or flashing the nightlies in which case I need to redo it multiple times a day!
I noticed today that the voicemail number is also not saved to the sim card, or doesn't read it. Not a big deal since 123 dials voicemail. However it does prevent you from using visual voicemail and other services.

Inspire 4g on EVO

So I was using a loaned Inspire before switching carriers and noticed the stock sense software on the inspire allows for home screen rotation and dlna and has some power options that the sense on my Evo doesn't have.
So here is the question. Can / has anyone been able to run the Inspire ROM on the Evo?
Ps staying with Sprint. Much better coverage.

Hey man, if you still need to find that ROM, let me point you in the right direction.

Unable to Login to various forums

Ok I really am not a n00b but I am starting to feel like one. I have tried to log into a few different forums and everytime it always says it cannot match my username and password even though the same combo works on my PC. It doesn't happen to all forums just a few. Even the T-Mobile forums and I have seen people post from their slide.

What rom are you using?
It was that way on the espresso 2.1 and on the 2.2 Espressos. I haven't messed with too many other roms.
