    Gaming Animal Crossing: New Leaf Hype Thread

    Hi everyone, I've been playing offline for awhile now, but I now want to try and go online and maybe look to expand my fruit collection or just hang out. I have oranges and pears on the ready right now, but I have mangoes, durians, lychees, and coconuts planted. I'm looking for peaches, apples...

    Android Android Phone User Tips.....

    The permroot feature of VISIONary does not give the same results as gfree. If you boot into your bootloader, you'll find that it'll say S-On. A full root will generally make the phone S-Off, unlocking the nand. You can read more about it here. As for your temproot/Adfree - Yes, you will need to...

    Android Android Phone User Tips.....

    Also, just a note. Using visionary does not write over the hboot, so it does not provide S-Off. You could use visionary for a temproot so that you could use gfree to get a permanent root (and s-off). A really handy site that covers quite a few devices is the CyanogenMod Wiki. It has step-by-step...

    Android Android Phone User Tips.....

    There is a single rooting application on the computer that's a 1-click root called Unrevoked. Though it only works for some HTC devices. To be honest though, since there are different methods for rooting different phones (even different versions of the same phone), it would be incredibly hard...

    Android Must have android apps

    I'm on CM7, so it may be different in stock messaging, but you can go within the messaging application: menu > settings > notification settings > uncheck notifications.

    ATT to acquire T-Mobile USA

    I'm pretty sure it's only T-Mobile US that is being bought. AT&T would be dabbling in something bigger than than itself if it were to buy all of T-Mobile.

    Android What's better - 'Unlocked' or 'Simfree' Android Ph

    Operator=Carrier=Provider I'm not familiar with UK operators, but if it was locked to a specific operator before, there may be operator-specific apps pre-installed on the device or a operator-specific splash image. However, the Desire HD is easily rootable, and a stock HTC sense rom can be...

    The MyTouch 4G and G2 are both NAND-locked devices, but both can be rooted with gfree.

    Android What's better? Rooting HTC at fw 2.1 or 2.2??

    In the old days, you would have to download the rom onto your computer, put it on your SD card, and install it through recovery itself (there are some cases where you still have to do this). Now there's an app called ROM Manager. It essentially is a recovery interface app on your phone that...

    Android What's better? Rooting HTC at fw 2.1 or 2.2??

    Rooting means that you have complete control over your device. You can now do nandroid backups, use applications that need root (like SetCPU or Titanium Backup), and install custom roms. Custom roms usually have features that aren't in stock roms (like an OC'd kernel). You can also usually get...
