Well I was helping out a friend who happens to have a sprint OG. These forums don't seem anywhere as well organized or friendly as the N4 forums though. I looked around a little but couldn't find the root guide, so I asked for help finding the thread. One person was nice enough to point me in the right direction (and I gave them the thanks they deserves) while a few loud assholes got upset at my harmless ignorance. Don't you have better thing to do than waste your time criticizing an internet stranger, while adding nothing to conversation or giving any additional tips. I guess it makes you feel cool or something, but why don't you get out from under your bridge and do something genuinely cool? Also, sorry about thanking you, that was an accident.

It all depends on if it's tethered, or untethered jailbreak.

Since we are all sharing stories. I purchased a used 3g last year to see what the big deal was. I spent more than 2 hours trying to jailbreak the crap vecause itunes wouldnt recognize the packages. Once i got it jailbroken i tried unlockinh it and it broke the jailbreak which lead me to start back at stock iphone. I did finally get it to find out the came firmware or hardware had an issue. Ended up scrapping it. I love android

and isnt untethered just a one click.
both are simple for me. All i had to do was the read and follow the tutorial for the device (iphone/ipod touch).
Well after I jailbroke it I found that easy but not knowing cause I've never messed with an iPhone found it more difficult to handle and much easier to flash or anything else themes and stuff

I'm confused. Are you saying doing something you have never done before is harder than doing something you have done before?
If you have an at&t iPhone they now offer their customer the ability to unlock their iPhones

Hey guys, I just noticed this as my battery died rapidly today and I checked the battery info in settings and saw "dbus-daemon" used 67% of my battery. I didn't install any new apps today and I can't recall seeing any updates automatically installed. Does anyone know what this is and if its something I should worry about? Obviously it drained my battery in a matter of minutes so I am worried. I had to do a battery pull because the settings was not responding. Is there some type of spyware/antivirus software I should install? Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

And yes, I did search for any info on this in the XDA forum. Thanks.

dbus-daemon is an application that uses this library to implement a message bus daemon. Multiple programs connect to the message bus daemon and can exchange messages with one another.
I copied that from a website. There ya go.. lol

You're the one acting like a childish idiot, what makes you think anybody is going to want to help you if you are going to retaliate with an ad-hominem fallacy?
OK thanks anton. Very useful info.

I hope you never find out what the drain is, and over time I hope it drains you of your very life force until you cease to exist.
Ingrate.
Oh yes, you're right what is happening to this forum!!!
People posting in the wrong section.
People posting the same thread twice.
People being so ungrateful that they snap at others that offer what help they can.
Its pathetic.
Oh and in case you didn't know, you're guilty of all of these crimes against the community.
What is happening to these forums indeed......

Your phone is full of Summer's Eve. Throw it in rice overnight. That should fix it.

I'm pretty sure he's talking about how Sprint gave us official jellybean for our phones.

Not only did they give us JB, they got it to us first of the 4 major US carriers!!!
way to go Sprint!!!
Yeah I will admit, props to Sprint.

I'm sure there are about a hundred other threads saying the exact same thing.
JB is amazing so far.. way faster, home button works much quicker even with s voice linked to it, love the next notification menu, and all of that.. even made our benchmark much much higher
JB is nice. It would also be nice if people started removing the sigs from Tapatalk :/
I agree im so happy all around. 1st of all this phone was flat out amazing out the box. I love the way this phone was marketed...all of the support and it seems like every accessory company is making things for this phone. This update was like getting a late christmas gift from your aunt in the mail lol.

I'm on a custom 4.2.1 ROM . if I update through Google will I just lose root and data or will I brick?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Its quite simple actually. Being on a custom ROM you can't upgrade from Google
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
Can't meaning your phone will not only brick but also totally explode. The self destruct is hidden in the battery along with nfc.
Unless you've got a silk cover on your battery.

If sarcastic remarks are what you're expecting from your experience on XDA, you may want to consider reevaluating the quality of your questions and/or posts that give rise to those sarcastic remarks. For reference see here: http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html.

True, but I think there is enough in the android market to at least warrant an update when there is a major o/s upgrade. Paid for it 2 years ago, on Froyo. GB, ICS, JB, KLP.....and he still is promising an update!
He did make a little noise on the app page last month, but I know better than to hold out for hope!

You can get them for free/$50/$100 if you don't buy the newest one (contract, of course). Pretty much everyone I know who has a smartphone.... iPhone.
