[Nook Color General] digitalslacker:
ok, same problem w/ the same book.

I'm not so sure it's a problem with the NookColor running a non-stock config though...

I went as far as to install the Nook app for PC and it's still tough to read. I even dropped the computer resolution to 800x600 and it's still hard to read.

I emailed B&N for a refund and was told the nookBooks weren't refundable. They suggested that I could pinch to zoom to enlarge it but that doesn't work.

anyone else have any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sonic Design:
Is there ANY vanilla lock screen.apk's out there that are just the .apk NOT an entire ROM, and ones that WORK, not ones that are "half ass" done? I realize developing anything can be difficult, I just want to find one that works correctly. The search filter on the site is junk you type in Vanilla lock screen, or any thing lock screen .apk and it just brings up every ROM that has a vanilla lock screen in it, can anyone help solve this "puzzle". I really like the one from Warm 2.2 BUT its jacked up/ wasnt properly developed and is just pointless to use unless youre using it with that ROM.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wdfowty:
Warm twopointtwo is not a vanilla rom, so it would not be a vanilla lockscreen. What rom are you using currently?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sonic Design:
i went back to the stock ROM, yea it wasnt the "Exact" lock screen from his, its one of his "extras" heres the link, its under "optional downloads near the bottom.

I hear you can just delete the sense lockscreen and it'll use the vanilla one. But, I believe I also heard that screws up your alarm. Not sure where the sense lockscreen apk is though.

Sent from my Droid Incredible running Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo RLS5.3.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silverxbv2:
I think the htclockscreen.apk is in system/apps. If you rename it with .bak at the end you will have the vanilla lock screen. Not sure what you mean by half assed though? What do you think is wrong with the one from Warm?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sonic Design:
well its "thinned" out, it sometimes double screens, as in you go to weather or alarm, and a blank screen will quickly slide up showing a half assed weather/ alarm screen, the lock itself is perfect, but what ever else he put in that apk file was terrible, i hate to *****/ trash on a dev since he has done really well, but i think it needed more work before releasing. as far as the apk file yea i knew you could change it to a .bak, only problem is, when i go into the root file explorer and locate the file to rename it, the second i try to rename it, it says "insufficient permissions" and i have no idea how to fix it, in this case google nore the forum was my friend lol any ideas?

ok fixed it, figured it out, and was able to change it, next step learning how to create apps LOL.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RossGoldenstein:
Most of this info may be extraneous, but I'll throw it in here just in case.

A few days ago, I decided to root my Evo 4G from the stock, 2.2 OS (HTC Sense?) using the Unrevoked website (using a PC running XP). It worked fine and got me rooted. Trouble began to arise when I attempted to install new ROMs such as CM-6 and Salvage. I decided to fork out a few bucks and pay for the ROM Manager Pro app, thinking that it would save me considerable hassle. After downloading the most recent CyanogenMod 7.0.0-RC2 through the app, I selected the "Install Gapps as well" option but did NOT check "Wipe Data and Cache" before letting the app do its work of installing and flashing and whatever for me. Upon completion of the installation, my phone then automatically rebooted normally, but became stuck on the boot image of the android on the skateboard with the spinning arrow. I let that sit for about 6 hours (I went to bed) thinking it was just first-time setup before I battery-pulled and booted into recovery, restored my original settings, and started over. This time I did everything the same except remembered to check "Wipe Data and Cache," as an online tutorial told me I ought to when switching from stock to another ROM, and it installed and booted correctly. I ran CM-7 for a day before deciding to try out a different ROM, downloading and installing it through the same interface, ROM Manager Pro. Everything went well until it got stuck, again, at the boot image. After about 30 min I battery-pulled and tried to restore back to CM-7, only to be greeted by another endless boot image. I was able to restore back to my original backup, but am now back to square one. What the heck am I doing wrong?

EDIT: That original backup I mentioned was made immediately after rooting the phone in preparation to install CM-7.

Sorry my technical knowledge is grossly lacking, I just got into this game. Patience and any help is GREATLY appreciated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SchmediumTux:
When switching from one rom to another, it is always important to remember to wipe data and cache. There are a few rare cases that it is not necessary to do this, but I really recommend that if you are just starting out, wipe them both for good measure until you learn enough that you can tell when you can get away with not wiping. Also, I know that one common problem that people experience with Rom Manager is that Unrevoked contains the Amon_RA recovery image, and Rom Manager is designed to with with the Clockwordmod recovery. In Rom Manager, you should be able to see which one you are currently using, and you should also be able to use Rom Manager to download and flash the latest Clockworkmod recovery. I too use Rom Manager as a convenient way of making sure that my rom is up to date, and to download roms, but I recommend that when you want to change roms, you do it by booting into recovery mode, and performing the wipe and install manually, as I have found that this method will help prevent errors like boot loops. I hope this helps!

P.S. Feel free to PM me if you ever need any help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RossGoldenstein:
So, for example, if I wanted to restore back to my CM-7 backup, would I want to boot into recovery and just restore to the backup or re-flash the ROM, then boot into recovery and try to restore it? I'm still getting the endless boot image.

Oh, and I am running clockworkmod, as per the instructions for ROM Manager.

Thanks for the quick reply!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] totalanonymity:
Move CM7-RC2.zip and the gapps.zip (or whatever its name; ex: filename.zip) to the root of your SD card by plugging it into your computer via USB and mounting it as a drive. Go ahead and exit all that.

Turn off your phone.

Hold volume down + power.

Go to Recovery.

Wipe the following: data/factory reset, cache, (in Advanced, accessed from same menu) wipe dalvik.

Go back.

Install .zip from SD.

Choose your .zip(s) [CM7, Gapps] from your card, flash, and presto!

I'm not too experienced with ROM Manager as I do not use it whatsoever, but I know the above stated method should work perfectly.

Furthermore,

I'm not sure if a format_all.zip should be used here with CM7. If someone who knows would like to chime in about this, that'd be great.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SchmediumTux:
This is the way I would flash any roms that you want from here on out.

I have used CM7 and have not had to use the format.zip from calk, so I don't think it is absolutely necessary, but it probably wouldn't hurt.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
I recommend flashing the format all zip whenever switching ROMs. It completely formats the various partitions and leaves a blank slate for the new ROM to be installed. I also recommend using ROM Manager to flash Amon_Ra recovery and do everything manually instead of using ROM Manager. People seem to have a lot less problems with Amon, and I have never had any issues flashing ROMs or kernels or anything with it.

You won't be able to restore a Clockwork backup with it but it never hurts to just flash a new ROM and restore your Titanium backups, assuming that you made them.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RossGoldenstein:
Wow, thanks all for the fast replies!

Ok, I now have Destroyer installed and working (finally!), but I am experiencing the apparently common black-on-black text box problem. I downloaded the .zip to be flashed to fix this, but am not sure how to proceed. Do I just do the exact same thing as flashing a new ROM entirely or is there something special I need to do to let the phone know that it is an update?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Not sure with ROM Manager but you can flash that from recovery the same way you flash a ROM. I'm sure there is an option in ROM Manager to flash it, I just couldn't tell you where. Do not wipe anything before flashing that though. Only wipe when flashing ROMs and kernels.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] totalanonymity:
Go back into Recovery and flash that .zip the exact same way you flashed the ROM. Minus the data wipe.

Others: Does he wipe cache/dalvik as well? I've seen some posts say to do that when flashing mods that are flashable .zip and some don't. I've done both ways and seen no negative consequences (as of yet).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RossGoldenstein:
Yeah, that last post was dumb, I clicked "Submit" before I tried anything on my own. Flashing it the exact same way minus data wipe worked perfectly, though the prediction boxes for input in the market app (when you hit "search" and start typing, the things that drop down to give suggestions) still appear to be black on black. Bleh.

Also, the Dalvic wipe before installing was a good idea; I don't know for sure if it made a difference but a good habit to get into.

EDIT: By the way, this has got to be the least grammatical/spelling errors in a forum thread I've ever seen. I think I may like this site...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Wiping the cache and dalvik most likely isn't necessary but it can never hurt.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] totalanonymity:
I'm really new to this stuff myself (rooted for the first time ~2 days ago) and so I'm unsure how to further fix the blacked out predictions in the Market. Perhaps you could try contacting those within the thread of the ROM you downloaded, specifically citing that you installed the initial blacked out fix so that they don't redirect you back to the fix you've already applied, testing your patience and furthering your wait for perfection.

Aye, this site has got to be full of some of the most fluent English-speaking persons I've found on the internet.

Google/Android Outlook Complete Sync Mail/Contacts/Calendar/Tasks/Notes

Has any one found a complete solution for android milestone outlook sync?

Mail/Contacts/Calendar/Tasks/Notes

I just don't see android that useful without this feature to completly sync with outlook. It seems even the paid apps don't support full sync and their reviews are bad.

Also, how do I import my old SMS from WM6.1 *.pst file to Android, any tools out there?

Thanks very much ... looking forward for the Froyo update
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] dim4x4:
Would like to get the answer on syncing, too. The problem might be that for example Outlook contact field do not correspond to Google contact fields - how to sync that is a big question.

If there is a solution not for sync, but for one-time convertion of all info from Outlook to Android that would be great, too.

Thank you!

Hey guys,

so, I couldn't find this posted using the search feature, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask since I tried looking already :D

Basically, is there a way to disable the dialer from going into landscape mode due to just tilt (as opposed to opening the keyboard) or even just disabling landscape altogether for it?

It's kind of frustrating when I open the dialer and sometimes the keypad is gone because I'm not entirely upright.

Thanks!

I was in the shower texting, and my phone just froze and started vibrating, but I was still able to turn it off through the power button, then I just finished showering. and tried to turn it on, and it wouldn't turn on. So then I put it in the charger and stuff to try. So it still doesn't work. So I tried powering it up like 5 times. So is it possible I short circuited it ? And how long should I leave it in raw rice ?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camalus:
In the shower texting. I think you may have a bigger problem than just a fried phone.

As for the phone.... you can try rice, but since you kept messing with it instead of putting it directly into the rice its probably fried. Anyway, about 5-7 days. Without taking it out to mess with it.

Did you atleast have it in a plastic bag or something? If not why would you text in the shower? But basically yea 5-7 days. I accidentally went swimming with my MT3G and left it for about 2-3 days and it came back on but the digitizer was dead.

[G Tablet General] mobilemodding.info:
I think gTablet is too quite, any ideas how to make it louder not using some external speakers?

May be there a way to adjust speaker levels via software?
[G Tablet General] japhule:
Which ROM are you using? I believe Vegan ROM is louder than TNT and stock.
[G Tablet General] slsmag:
Same issue here (no pun intended). My hearing stinks to begin with, but even at full volume the sound from my GTab (VEGAn b1 5.11) is of no use and I have to use a headset.
[G Tablet General] Mantara:
When listening to music with power amp I can turn the pre amp all the way up and it sounds great. There is deffinate room for adjustment on stock Max output. If I did that on my mt3g it would blow the speakers and my ears out, on my gtab though it's barely comfortable to listen to maxed without a headset.
[G Tablet General] mobilemodding.info:
I'm using precisely Vegan ROM, I guess on TNT and others it will be just whispering :)

Even in headset my ipod x5 times louder!
[G Tablet General] slsmag:
I spent a few minutes in a Verzon store this weekend with my GTab. I went up to the display of tablets and sent the iPad, iPad2 and Xoom to the CNN webpage and clicked on a video - and then loaded the same video on the GTab. My GTab display was ok - not quite as good as the others, but passable. The real difference was that on all 3 of the other tablets you could hear the sound, while it was basically inaudible on the GTab.

Both iPads just feel so much more elegant in your hands than the others. Both the GTab and the Xoom feel like a tank in comparison.

All things considered:

- I'd have an iPad(1) WiFi if it had external storage and could run Flash

- I'd have an iPad2 Wifi, if it could run Flash

- I'd have the Xoom if it were WiFi only and $200 cheaper.

It's so early in the product lifecycle of tablets. For those of us with limited funds to spend on toys it's just crazy to spend too much on these things right now.

I'd be much, much happier with my GTab if I could get to all of the apps in the Android marketplace. And if I could hear it. <sigh>

[G Tablet General] goodintentions:

[G Tablet General] DaveyBoy2002:
didnt work for me, errors out on tntlite 5, installs and runs fine but when you go to apply the settings it says some error that goes away too fast to copy LOL
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
I intend to use the gtab mostly for work and reading/editing documents, so I guess sound just isn't that important to me.
[G Tablet General] Mantara:
Wow, haven't heard of that and I searched the gtab xda forums. Where is it from? Is it a load from cwm or a rename from .zip to .apk installation?

Edit. Broke sound on my device. In fine print it says not for android 2.1+ don't use this thing as it will break your sound.

Reboot fixed sound but I still don't know wharf it replaced or edited. Going to restore my backup.

[HD2 General] RoN_HD2:
Hi all,

Just recently my HD2 has locked up twice. The only way out I could find was to perform a HR on both occasions. Unfortunately the first time this happened I lost all my contacts as I hadn't backed them up to the sim card (this is now remedied). However I was able to get my contacts back via the My Phone app so there was no big drama.

On each occasion, and more importantly, I also lost all my Calendar entries which weren't backed up as I've never used Outlook before, I get by just fine with Hotmail. However, I really can't keep losing all my calendar entries as its so much hassle having to re-enter all my work stuff, appointments etc. So I'm now seriously considering purchasing a copy of Outlook 2010, which ain't cheap!

What I need to know is if i have to HR again following syncing my appointments with outlook, if need be can I reverse sync my appointments out of outlook back to my phone? I'm not that clued up about this syncing process which I'm sure you've noticed.

Just out of curiosity, is anyone aware of any other software which will sync my appointments other than Outlook? As its a costly bit of kit just to sync my stuff as I don't think I'll use all the bells & whistles ie e-mail etc.

Appreciate any replies.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Just use the Microsoft My Phone app it will backup your calender for you. Just open Microsoft My Phone then touch on Menu at the bottom of the screen and then touch Options. Then just place a check beside tbe things you want to backup.
[HD2 General] RoN_HD2:
Wow! Thank you, thank you & thank you again! I didn't know this. I will try this tonight.

Thanks, appreciate your help.
[HD2 General] Mister B:
Also look at SPB for backing up data to SD card which will not be lost when Hard Reset is needed.

If you are getting many lock ups you would be advised to install a better ROM such as Energy 23699 build which is very pratical & runs far smoother than buggy network operator ROMs.
[HD2 General] uli71:
For higher/better prevention of losing your essential data, you can use MS MyPhone and Outlook, like I do.

But for restoríng data: first synch with Outlook, then with MyPhone, otherwise you will have have double entries of contacts and appointments.

latest Magldr and CWM

It doesn't matter what NAND rom I flash, I get no data whatsoever. The phone says I have full 3G signal, but I cannot get a downstream, can't text, can't make calls. Pongsters' hyperdroidGBXv9 worked for a while this morning, but a few hours later in the day everything dropped out again. Everything else works perfectly fine. Urgency is because I'm about to leave on a roadtrip, and I need a working phone in case of emergency. I've tried both of Pongsters' Roms, TyphooN_CM7, and a slew of the Tmous specific ones, but to no avail. I did a proper wipe between every swap, and it also appears that I can always get an upstream, just not a downstream.
