    Root Attempting to develop ClockworkMod for Marauder

    I managed to find a full partition list hidden away in some of the Marauder's files so I've found the recovery partition (it's /dev/block/mmcblk0p19). I've fed it into the ClockworkMod Builder website and I'll see what comes out. Hopefully it'll work right out of the builder, but I have no...

    Root The Super Bueno Guide to Obtaining Superuser

    UPDATE 2013-10-06: Great news boys and girls, Mr. lclemens has discovered a root exploit that works on this phone. I've used it and confirmed root explorer now has root access. Be sure to give him a thanks on his post! Hopefully this helps anyone having trouble finding drivers or a root script...

    Root Rooting stock OTA ICS?

    I'm just wondering, since I never bothered with the ICS leak or any of that stuff- Is there any process out there to root the stock OTA update ICS for the A500? Everything I've found either has to do with the leak, or Honeycomb (which didn't work for me before the update anyway). I checked...

    Question before updating to ICS

    So ICS is official on our Iconia A500s! I do have a quick question before I apply the update, though. Does it keep all your application data? Specifically, my wife has a lot of time invested in a little known game called Temple Run. Would the update wipe out all that or would it be preserved...

    Help Flash won't work

    Yeah, I can't get flash to work in the browser or anywhere. I have the most recent Flash version from the Market but I don't know what the hell else to do besides install it. It won't work in any browser, I just get the picture of that stupid lego.

    Make wifi work off contract. ROOT NOT REQUIRED!

    I stumbled upon the solution to this while researching more into how to flash the phone to another carrier. Turns out, it's really easy to re-enable wifi on the Devour when off contract (or not activated with Verizon). 1. From the home screen, open the dialer. 2. Dial: ##PROGRAM (##7764726) and...

    Help Save contacts to SIM card?

    How do you save your contacts onto the SIM card on the Stratosphere? I've tried all kinds of things, long-press on contact, pressing the menu key... I can't find it anywhere, and I'd like to do this so I can just put my SIM into a new phone once I get one.

    My belated review of the Stratosphere

    I figured I'd post my thoughts and feelings about the Stratosphere in a thread for many others to see. Here I'll post the best and worst things about this phone. First and foremost, some background about me. I am an experienced Android user, and I demand a physical keyboard on my smartphone...

    Help Stupid button LEDs

    One thing that's been bugging me about this phone is when I'm watching Netflix, with the keyboard closed and everything, the stupid navigation buttons (search, back, home and menu) won't turn their damn LEDs off. They stay really bright even if the screen is set quite dim. It's quite annoying...

    Super Awesome Battery Killer!

    So I was happily lying in bed watching Netflix when the screen went black, and the phone was dead. After performing a battery pull with no result, I feared I had killed my new best friend, until I also plugged it back in. It turns out, watching Netflix over 4G LTE with the screen pretty...

    Root List of safe-to-remove bloat?

    Given the staggering amount of bullcrap Verizon has put on this phone, we need to determine what exactly is safe to remove (if we get a custom ROM though, the point is moot). I'd love to start a list in this forum for reference, but I don't wanna brick my new best friend. Does anyone have...

    Root List of apps I've removed from /system/app (after Motoblur disable)

    After using the process to disable/bypass Motoblur I posted at http://androidforums.com/devour-all-things-root/439982-permenantly-bypass-motoblur-keep-your-apps-root-required.html I now had a rooted Devour without Motoblur and a ton of bloat, and other stuff in /system/app that I didn't need...

    Root Permenantly bypass Motoblur and keep your apps! (root required)

    First of all, I need to say how simple this really was. The main problem is when you use the ##BLUROFF command, the next time you boot up the phone it is forced to do a "factory reset" from recovery, wiping the data partition. The solution? Obtain root as quickly as possible and get rid of the...

    Root Broke facebook messaging

    So I removed a bit much bloatware and the Devour's messaging app can't use facebook messaging anymore, it force closes. I've looked through the APKs I removed in my /system folder (everything's backed up) and I have no idea which one broke it. Can anyone shed some light on this?

    Changing the keycharacter file

    So I was getting kind of annoyed about some of the limitations of the Devour's physical keyboard. I was kind of taking it above and beyond the usual use of Android phones (specifically I was writing code in Java) so I wanted to change what could be easily typed with the keyboard. Specifically...

    Root Overclocking this thing

    The Devour has been rooted for quite a while now. Has anyone figured out how to overclock it yet? I've done Google searches but nothing comes up. Do we really need a custom kernel to make higher settings work? I've tried several overclocking apps, SetCPU being obviously the best, but no matter...

    Root Removing the Voice Commands app

    So I finally got sick of the voice commands app interrupting whatever I was doing because I kept accidentally hitting the stupid button for it. I had just rooted my Devour and wanted to see what I could do. I looked in the "about" section of the voice commands app and saw it was a "vsuite"...
