Hi XDA Community,

I'm the developer of the free and open-source app GMarks for Android. I've had an outstanding response from volunteer translators - thanks to you GMarks is localized to 30 languages! However, I'm still looking for a Korean translation.

If you'd like to help translate GMarks into Korean, please reply or PM me! Here's the original thread for GMarks translations.

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NYZack:
Been using Cyanogen7 and really like it. When I see folks discussing this vs. Sense ROMs, vanilla boosters frequently ask what Sense fans like about Sense so much. The response usually seems to be that they like the Sense widgets and the dialer, and vanilla defenders say that equivalents can be found elsewhere (Beautiful widgets and DialerOne, e.g.).

However, the only thing I really miss about Sense is the People app. Not because I like its interface so much, but because it seems to be the only contacts app that easily allows you to modify group membership and birthdays. Apps like Contact Group Manager exist, but these don't seem nearly as well-designed (and don't handle birthdays).

Any apps I'm missing out there?

Hi,

I have a X10i with BaseBand .54 and I want install XAT CM6FROYO rom, but this rom needs baseband .55. My question is, I can upgrade my X10i for BB .55 or for X10i is a BB .58?

Sorry for my English.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] festa20:
Seen this before again and again ;)

Any rom which requires either BB.55 .54 or. 58 will work with any of these 3 BB's installed

So in otherwords there is no reason to flash a newer .55/.58 as it should work on. 54

Regards :)

I read around and found one thread that said that the radio is bricked so you would need to send it to HTC. You could just say that you were performing a firmware upgrade and it went tits up.

If you have access to hboot which you prob don't then you could try putting the zip file from the RUU, rename it PB99IMG and put it on your SD card and let it run like that. But like I said, unlikely.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jivemaster:
Much appreciated Meaple. I thought a solid brick might be the case.

I must say that the main thing that confuses me is how I was able to boot the phone once after running through the RUU's. I also find it strange that the RUU refuses to flash the radio.

Perhaps a bad radio flash in the past while allowing the phone to still operate (albeit in a faulty nature) was the cause if the initial issues, and that functionality was finally ended after a RUU (due to the nature whereby it wipes everything).

Is it possible at all to run anything from the sd card from the pc command line through fastboot? Or to run an officially signed ota in PB99IMG.zip format from the command line?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
I take it you can access hboot? You might be able to but you'll have to look around.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killall:
I had the same problem last year. Called HTC who said that if you have the four triangles then it is a hardware failure (probably mobo).

Sent it back to them and got it back 7 days later with a new [free] mobo. Worked perfectly ever since. By the way I told them it happened whilst installing an OTA update.

There is a large thread somewhere on the forum about people having this random reboot problem and the consensus seems to be that it is a hardware problem and the only remedy is to return the phone to HTC.

Hope this helps
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jivemaster:
Um somehow even with a radio flash fail every time I did an RUU, I was still able to fastboot oem boot the device again, after flashing RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed (and after a number of fastboot oem boots and battery pulls later).

Oddly I wasn't able to do it with a sd card inserted though.

While I have it in this booted state, do any of you guys have any suggestions for what I could do next? Considering I have no sd card inserted, and no root access? :S

Obviously this booted state is completely temporary and I'll obviously get stuck in the HTC RUU recovery again if I shut down the device, which may take a while to return to a booted state. (this is the 2nd time in 3 days or so I've actually gotten it to boot out of what's seemed like 100 RUU flashes.)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
1. Get the 2.29.405.5 RUU

2. Follow the guide I posted here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10509780&postcount=102

This might not work but it might at least get a working ROM on the phone so you can send it back
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jivemaster:
Thanks for your response EddyOS. It was actually your guide I used to understand how to extract and start using the PB99IMG.zip's in the first place to get me to this point. However, I don't think doing any more RUU's will help, because don't they just reboot the phone again and bring me back to the problem where I'm on the screen with /!\ alert signs and the radio won't flash?

Currently the phone has 2.1-update1 and HBOOT 0.80 (software version as found in my pic on post #6).

Is there a way of gaining root access to flash anything or to gain root from within android os itself? I remember back on the nexus one you could permanent root the entire thing (with a locked bootloader) from within android using an adb exploit.

I can confirm that the phone appears as a device under adb devices, meaning I can now make use of adb. (if that helps)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jivemaster:
Ok, a bit of an update: by using the adb install method I was able to get UniversalAndroot 1.62 on the device and have been successful in getting softroot. Not a huge win by any means, but at least it's something.

EDIT: Through a bit of dodgyness, I was able to insert the memory card into the desire with the battery still in there (it wouldn't boot with the card inserted). Now that I have some internal storage I have been able to install clockworkmod and have flashed clockwork recovery.

Still doesn't fix the problems though, because I've obviously got no way of booting into clockworkmod.

Is there anything I can flash while booted into android to stop the phone from going to the /!\ HTC alert screen every time its powered on?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SergioA:
Hi there!

Now that my Desire (CM7-RC2) is S-off I'd like to change the partition table to have more room for applications; my alternatives are:

Bravo Sense (system/cache/data): 180M/40M/217M

Bravo CM7 (system/cache/data): 130M/5M/302M

I'd go for the Bravo CM7 (great to have 302M instead of my original 147M!) but my doubts are about the minimal size of the cache partition: I know that it is too small to hold Radio flashes from recovery (no problem here), but is there any other problem compared to the bigger 40M of the Bravo Sense?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalavere:
You've posted in the wrong section.

It is designed specifically for CM7, so there will be no issues at all. If you're not happy with it, I'd recommend flashing the generic Bravo N1Table.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SergioA:
Ops! Sorry Kalavere, I intended to post in the Desire Q&A but forgot to change section, can a moderator move the Thread to the correct section?

Sorry again :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
CM7 table is for CM7 really since it uses cache somewhere else I think. I would use Sense and not N1 because you don't need all that cache, not even for SenseUI.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SergioA:
Thanks guys, I've gone with CM7 table and it rocks :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alojo:
Hi:

Is there some explanation about how do work system, cache and data partitions?

I'm willing to change to CM7 but I'm not sure if these changes are neccesary or not...

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalavere:
System holds all system files, cache is used for caching and data is where internal apps and other misc things are stored. It's not necessary to change your HBOOT, but if you do essentially you'll get more internal space to install apps on.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alojo:
So you use more internal memory to install apps, insted of the slower ext partition in the SD card. Interesting....

Thanks!

Just thought I'd post here, as player pro has had a pretty decent update a couple of days ago; and I've not seen anything posted here to mention it.

The Default skin has been updated, and there's also now an EQ and DSP effects.

(There's a more detailed list of changes on the market link).

Worth the couple of quid over the better of the other free players IMV (Winamp, Songbird et al).

Regarding the closing of the Thread about the CM7 boobies:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1002236

How lovely it is to see that it's perfectly OK to post a picture on this forum of a gaggle of women with their boobs literally falling out of their shirts and procede to call anyone who objects prudes, queers and p*ssywhipped (and their girlfriends are called fat, ugly, b*tches and hos.)

People immediately got up in arms about how the sky is falling, the liberals are taking over the country and how real Red Blooded A'merkins are able to appreciate the human body and everyone else should all just get over it.

I (half jokingly) posted a photo of a guy in a tight swimsuit with a CyanogenMod logo photoshopped on and it is immediately removed and the thread is then locked.

Talk about this board's (and many of its user's and mod's) misogynistic, homophobic double standards.
[EVO 4G General] novanosis85:
I,I,I,I.........agree
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
I hope I didn't offend you when I put that "thread is closed" pic right after yours. I was just playing around like you were. But yeah, I think that its pretty wrong of them to shut it down after that pic just like they shut down my WP7 rom thread. :-/
[EVO 4G General] nolageek:
Nah. I didn't even see it. :)

The thread didn't offend me (nor did the original CM7 wallpaper) as much as it annoyed me. All this posturing about how boobies is art is just rediculous. I totally called it early in the thread that if the tables were reversed and there was a bulging speedo that the same people would suddenly turn their nose and start clutching their pearls. Well, there ya go. :)
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Dude. Your pic was a dude with a see through thing.. nobody wanted to see his actual schlong.

The CM wall had underboobs, not any nudity. You see more than underboob at a swimming pool. I do agree that it was lame that it got closed, but the D*ck pic was too much.
[EVO 4G General] tejasrichard:
Yeah, but you agree with anything anti-cm, so no surprises there. I can understand not liking CM, but I don't understand being anti-cm. Not starting a fight here, and you can feel however you want, just calling it like I see it...and right now, I see a vocal minority constantly bashing a dev teams work, for no reason other than they can. I have used some version of nearly every rom posted on this board, and before I got my Evo, all the roms that dropped on the Hero. I liked vaelpak, and LOVED mikfroyo, but when it comes down to it, I don't use HTC's ui. Even on sense roms, I used awd or launcher pro or go launcher...so why bother with sense at all? But, if you use sense ui and like those widgets, then why use CM? There is no need for aol the thread-crapping going on lately.

As far as THIS thread is concerned, the pc bull$h1t has gotta stop. it it not exploitative to take pictures of someone because they are pretty our handsome, as long as they are consenting adults...or no more exploitative than it would be to take pictures of someone because they are average-looking. People need to grow up and stop getting offended over everything. Hell, I hafta sensor my language CONSTANTLY on this site, for fear if someone getting their panties in a bunch. They are words, people. Just words. Does it change ANYTHING about the meaning of my post if I type "eff this bs" versus actually using the real words? Of course not. Everyone reading this post understood not just what I meant, but what actual words I was using...so why then bother. Grrr. [/rant]
[EVO 4G General] tejasrichard:
How do you know "nobody wanted to see" it? There are chicks and gay dudes on this site, too. Besides, this is my actual point, conveniently illustrated (thanks for that). There is NOTHING different about seeing a penis or breasts and seeing an arm or a face. They are different parts of the same body. And don't give me that "sexual organs" crap, unless you are making people wear mittens and cover their mouths, too. Do you make your significant other wear a face mask in public? Mouths can be pretty....stimulating.
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
Sure, but that isn't the problem at hand. It doesn't matter if you think its fine, pictures like that, that show sexual organs are not socially acceptable in the us. The cm picture is socially acceptable. And since this is the evo forum... pretty much everyone here is from the us. Your problem is with society ... I didn't see the picture though so no comment on it.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Save the self righteous blah blah talk. I have kids in the room when I browse XDA, I can explain bathing suit or underboob shots.. I can't explain a d*ck shot to my 9 year old daughter. Do you walk around a public pool with your johnson hanging out? Nope, you don't. BUt you can walk around anywhere with the outfit the CM wall girl had on.

I'm definitely not against nudity, porn or whatever else... there is just a place for it and XDA isn't one of them. This isn't an x-rated site, sorry.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
I walk around the pool in my bathing suit with my "diggler" hanging out but that's not by choice lmfao. If kids are present how do I hide my anatomy; do I have a secret compartment in my a$$ or something? Do I unscrew it and leave it in the car. I love boobies myself, but that boobies pic is the same as the guy in the thong. That guy was considered half naked and so were the women. There's no exception. If those chicks were around your kids you'd feel the same way about the guy; you'd want to protect your kids from ALL forms of nudity.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
It was a see through Thong.. if it was just a thong it wouldn't be near an issue. You guys can try and "fight the world" all you want. It won't work.

If you need to know why an underboob picture and a picture of an actual d*ck are different, then it's your own fault.. not mine.

Trust me, your "diggler" is not exposed at a public pool so save it. Try and show your "diggler" off at a pool full of kids and we'll be looking at your profile on a sex offender site. Then nobody would care if you could unscrew your johnson and shove it up your own azz or not.

EDIT: for the record, I have reported at least 2 pictures of a naked boob (as much as I like boobs) in the theme section as well.. a naked boob is much different than an underboob... I like porn as much as anyone, come check my pc =p. There are just plenty of sites available for full nudity..not a dev site.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
I get your point. I also have a baby girl(2) rather it be tits or dudes junk in a bathing suit I protect her from all if it. Even if I had a son he would be to young to see the same ish. Half tits in bikins are no worse than a see through guy thong. So when you buy underwear/boxers they always have a guy in pretty much the same **** on the cover. Do you not buy because there's a guy w/ rock hard abs in tightly whities LOL. I don't see what the big deal was. That image was the typical image that's used to market all sorts of things. I'm a heterosexual male but that pic didn't offend me at all like it did a lot of you. I'm just saying they immediately removed it because it was a guy but they had tits all over the place. I really don't care but there are gays and women in here who find that socially acceptable. I never said I show my diggler to kids, I'm saying anatomy is everywhere, somes show more than others get over it LOL.

Edit: just so you know I'd never wear a thong like that because kids are always around. I would protect someone else kids from the same things I do mine.
[EVO 4G General] tejasrichard:
Actually, that depends entirely on where you live. Yes, there are lots of places where you can swim totally nude, AND THERE ARE ALSO PLACES WHERE YOU ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT WEAR WHAT THOSE GIRLS WERE WEARING WITHOUT BEING ARRESTED FOR INDECENCY. So which is right? And why? (with reasons based in logic, please) For the record, I have a four-year-old girl, so it isn't like I don't know what its like to have kids...and btw, you trying to force your ideas about decency on everyone else is the very definition of "self-righteous" just as much as mine is. Your morals are not the only ones, or the"correct" ones, they are what you are used to.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Places where you can swim totally nude aren't places you stumble onto while browsing an internet forum about android. You wouldn't walk unknowingly with your kids to a nude beach..

I do agree that everyone's morals are different, and nobody is forcing mine on you, so I should have the same right. When I open a thread on a site like this that is not at all an x-rated site and see a johnson.. then my choice is being taken from me.

It didn't offend me in the least, everyone is allowed to have the porn of their choice.. just not here. Like it or not, seeing a ding-a-ling and seeing an underboob is different, regardless of how people try to spin it.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
We had underboob all over the place, not naked boobies. The only issue I take with that picture is it was completely see through... his johnson was right in my freakin face (thank god it was only on the internet!)

If that thread was full of nude chicks, I would be equally upset because I also have a young son. If the half naked guy was in underwear or anything that wasn't see through, I wouldn't say a word.
[EVO 4G General] novanosis85:
Europe society don't find nudity an issue...
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
I understand where you're coming from. I'm doing a great job protecting mine and I'm sure you're doing the same.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
I try to do my best while also letting them grow up without being overly strict.

I will concede the point tho, if people feel as strongly about the CM wall as they do about full nudity, then none of it should be allowed. I'm not willing to say it's ok for nude pictures to be posted here... so if that comes at the cost of pictures like the Cm wall... then so be it.

I understand there will come a day that I have to deal with the "adult" issues with my kids, but, that day sure as hell won't come because I was browsing XDA =p
[EVO 4G General] tejasrichard:
No it isn't. You can't give a single reason seeing partial boob is different than setting a penis in a see-through thong. Not one. In fact, you still haven't explained why setting a boob is different than seeing an arm. Reasons or there is no difference. This is the US, as was pointed out above, which means that people of all different nationalities and religions live here. There are plenty of religions which would frown heavily on the half-naked images, just as much as actual nudity...so, why is it ok to have images that aren't morally unacceptable in their households, but not images that are verboten in yours?

Edit: your last post happened while I was typing. Truce accepted. We weren't likely to agree, anyway ;-p, and the house was starting to stink.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
I will say that if this was only the US (it isn't) then we have some ground to stand on. Just because people from different nationalities come here doesn't mean we change what is socially acceptable for them.

I wouldn't move to North Korea and demand they change their ways to that of the US simply because I moved there.

BUt like I said, I concede the point and don't wish to argue. If it's all or nothing, then I choose nothing... at least when browsing XDA anyway.

"So grab your d**k and double click cause the internet is for porn."
[EVO 4G General] gmap516:
It was not see-through at all, it was just that male anatomy, specifically a penis, happens to protrude from the body, as do breasts. You saw more breasts in the other shot than you did actual penis in his shot.

That wasn't a dickshot, have you ever seen a man walking around in a speedo or tight-fitting bathing suit at a pool or beach? You'll see plenty of 'penis shots' that way, and that's in public where children of any age can see it. You can't hide penises when wearing tight undergarments as much as a woman can't hide her breasts

Thank you.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Gmap, it was see through, sorry, but it was.
[EVO 4G General] gmap516:
No, sorry. But it wasn't. You really only saw the shape of his penis. Nothing more, nothing less. If it were see-through, please tell me if he was uncircumcised or not, and if you could see his skin tone under it. No? I didn't think so.
