Guest StevenHarperUK Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 Hi My device was bought in UK last December, OLED. The specifications leaflet says it has 512 MB of ROM. But when I check the device's current memory through SmartBar app it shows: 208.12M, Free 70.87M. Is this normal for UK-bought phones which are supposed to have 512 M, or do I have a lock or something? Thanks.. I think you are looking at the wrong value. Reread the first post again.

Guest StevenHarperUK Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Sorry for the noobish post, but do I need to use this? Your RAM is 414MB - so no (some RAM is used by the Kernel) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StevenHarperUK Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Available memory only 280m with 0 apps running? Im using the latest cm7 That is fine - Yours will also show as 414MB Max, but 280MB available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest geezerone Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 Need to check but have a sneaky suspicion my UK TFT version is 256MB. Any reason why only half is configured addressable and any other implications by applying this fix? Are all San Franciscos 512MB and any way to tell if it is one of the phones to be avoided from menu etc? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the UK phones have 256MB RAM They have about that space in /Data Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which TPT did you flash? Did you check the MD5 when you downloaded the ZIP - can you check it and re-put the /image files back onto the SDCARD and try again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes re-try it. Otherwise pick a TPT with clockwork on it and use clockwork to flash a new ROM of your choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ThermalDroid Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 When I update and it is in hungarian will fastboot be in english? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StevenHarperUK Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 When I update and it is in hungarian will fastboot be in english? Fastboot is a mode for doing low level stuff to the phone : it is always in English You will be asked when the ROM boots what language you want android in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ThermalDroid Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Okay So I jyst want to check I have got this right before I do something wrong: -The device is rooted using universal androot. -Clockwork is installed. -Hungarian update is on SD. -Reboot phone into clockwork. -I install it using clockwork -Then using superuser that I got from universal androot I install Japjelly. Is that correct or have I missed/added any steps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that correct or have I missed/added any steps? The TPT can only be installed using the 3 Key COMBO - see instructions. (not in Clockwork) The TPT will leave your phone with Stock Recovery Stock Hungarian ROM After this you need to treat the phone like a brand new device and re-install clockwork After that you just install the ROM you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ThermalDroid Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Is there a large visible change in the speed? i have seen videos of this after it been unlocked and it looks the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StevenHarperUK Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Is there a large visible change in the speed? i have seen videos of this after it been unlocked and it looks the same. From the 2.1 ROM to a 2.2 ROM there is a Large increase in speed. From 2.2 to 2.3 there is another slight increase, but for me 2.2 is the most ready for every day use.

Guest sambartle Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Tried this TPT image on a blade with blocked fastboot (Orange B10 ROM), can confirm that fastboot works once this is complete. :D (Also no need to redo the network unlock) Is it recommended to do this to a B10 phone? I don't mean is it safe to flash.. I mean does it provide a safety net in case you do something stupid in the future and need fastboot to get back out of that situation? Or is the blade pretty safe just having a decent recovery so theres no need to get fastboot working? What's everyone's thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hecatae Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 would it be possible to reverse this so that instead of the tpt program flashing it reads and saves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
