[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tych0n:
Flashed Blaze, played around a bit. It sucks. Not too much, but it's clearly inferior to Energy, UI-wise. It hasn't SOD'd on me yet but it has had some other glitchy behaviour, so I'll try Dynamics 2.0 now.

EDIT: Dynamics 2.0 is REALLY FAST (can't say about SOD stability yet) and a huge improvement over Blaze, but unfortunately I already grew fond of the bottom-bar start menu that 826X and Energy have and the extra Sense shortcuts. *sigh*

Back to 826X, I guess, because I liked its UI the most, although it doesn't have CHT Editor or widget pages. A shame I can't cook, or I'd have put the Energy version of CHT on Dynamics 2.0... :(

EDIT #2: Oh hell, oh hell, oh hell, I had Dynamics freeze, too! :eek: Not SOD, though...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agent008my:
as i said, blaze is a relatively old ROM with minimal bug fixes. however, amongst the older ROMs it was fairly stable, hence the reason i recommended it. what you can do is to re-flash either 826X or Energy, and see if task29 or s2u2 could help with your SODs. either of those should definitely rid the frequent SODs that you have experienced.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tych0n:
I'm not 100% certain, but it seems that even the 826X's inbuilt lockscreen is enough to prevent SODs. Needs more testing, though. I'll report back later.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultrashot:
0) task 29, spl 0.78

1) another radio

2) 3G->2G (if your network carrier doesn't support/support 3G in a weird way)

3) another sim card? in russia, for example, some new sim-cards don't work well

4) finally, get rid of goodle location services if you enabled them. inbuilt weather is also one of stability issues reasons.

5) installed 3rd party alarms may change power settings

general cooking problems floating around that may influence stability

1) not configured demand paging (in 99% of xperia roms, d2.1 is the only exception now)

2) bad kitchen used

3) bad .VM and .ROM

the advantage of Dynamics is that it is flexible - you can install any manila/wm combo you like. Looks like you installed GT version while GTX is what you looked for.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tych0n:
Thanks, ultrashot, I'll try those if my current ROM still keeps SODding. Things I know that aren't responsible for causing the SODs are 2G/3G, SIM, radio, Google and 3rd party apps. So... almost everything in that first list.

I'm a complete newbie when it comes to cooking, so I can't really can't say about the cooking issues.

Using the newest 826X ROM with lockscreen (but not s2u2 yet) for the second day, no SODs or other issues yet.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anujgupta2k:
Try following as I did for Dynamic GTX

1) Install Hard-SPL 0.78 by OliNex!

2) Use task29. !!! Put kovsimg.nbh to storage card !!!

3) Then flash needed ROM as always (via storage card or via CustomRUU).

4)Make a Hard-Reset using two Left and right edge buttons above optical pad then followed by pressing Power and release power button once it vibrates and keep pressing edge button.

5)Slide keyboard and press R followed by space bar to complete installing custom rom.

This should fix ur SOD.

Do take necessary backup before perfoming the said task.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzblaze:
If me, I would go for 826x Rom.

It's the most stable manila Rom for me :)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vannanta:
826x.....i think so....
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] izzyk:
I would give 826X a try ... I'm using it right now and it's very good, stable and fast ... and it doesn't overclock your CPU which in my opinion is good cuz overclocking might have some side effects on the long run ...

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Pawnty:
What are the best apps available for picture and video recording for 2.2? I don't know why but I've been having a hard time finding good ones. I've been using Vignette which does it's job for taking pictures but doesn't have video recording support.

Hopefully there is an app availble that supports the 8MP pictures and 720P video recording of the X10. :)

I'd love to be able to use the stock camera from stock firmware but that doesn't seem to work on 2.2 :(
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Eugene1991:
Why not use this ROM? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=945264

It has a working 8MP cam and 720p video recording(Though the sound capture might be inaudible not sure why, i bet the devs are working on it and colour reproduction for me was kinda bluish effect.)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Pawnty:
That is the rom I'm using. I'm just looking for an APP to take pics / shoot vids with. the stock android one kinda sucks
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] jackiie:
well...for photos with perfect light (outside, daylight) camera360 is perfect. it has very nice effects and the photos look like they are made by a pro. (one bad thing is, that it doesnt recognize the flashlight of the x10i - i dunno why and its not for free)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] frankiefkit:
so far the best rom for me...
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] jimakos29:
other than stock SE camera miui cam is nice
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] trankilnet:
i confirm that
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] kantk20111:
I love Camera360 Ultimate, it takes pictures faster than Vignette and in my experience better quality features.

Vignette has more effects but it takes FOREVER to process a photo, and I have frequent freezing, so I don't like it that much.
[G Tablet Accessories] eebuckeye:
The manual states 32GB microSD should be used. How much do I need for rooting the gtablet? If 4 or 8GB microSD is enough will it work right? What is the best brand?

Thanks!
[G Tablet Accessories] Stonecipher:
That's a good question, I had wondered that myself. I figured I would pick up a 16 gig for storage, and smaller / cheaper ones for backing up and switching out ROMS. If 4's would work in general that would be great (and dirt cheap).

Anyone more experienced in this area care to chime in with their experiences?

Thanks!
[G Tablet Accessories] LowSky:
Up to 32GB sized cards can be used.

Grab any size you like.

Try to grab on of at least Class 6 rating or better. The higher the class number the faster the card is.
[G Tablet Accessories] eebuckeye:
Is 4 or 8GB big enough for rooting?
[G Tablet Accessories] P00r:
Yes, consider the card as used only for media storage like music or movies, book etc, you wll need it only when you manage to fill the internal 16gb

So if you need only to root even 2 gb is plenty
[G Tablet Accessories] Stonecipher:
Thanks! That's what I needed to know. I think I have a 2 gig from an old BBerry in the drawer at home.
[G Tablet Accessories] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
You really don't need a card to root at all.

Get ADB setup properly to your PC and you can transfer all the files you need straight to internal memory (which will show up as /sdcard).
[G Tablet Accessories] P00r:
good point! depend on how you like to spend your friday night I guess ;)
[G Tablet Accessories] TheFlyingPig:
I have a 16 GB with about 4 GB space left, can I use it without erasing the stuff I saved on it?

It's just resolution... If you want to go see a qHD screen, on a phone, go look at some of the motorola phones.. I think even the og Droid had a qHD screen.
[HTC EVO 3D] Officerpolabear:
Um, the OG droid only had a resolution of 854x480... the Evo 3D's resolution, however, is 960x540
[HTC EVO 3D] nucentury08:
Whats the big deal people already have QHD screens old news Now
[HTC EVO 3D] Chad_Petree:
Im im not mistaken the evo 3d will be the first tft lcd screen with qHD resolution, the motorola arix as a pentile screen :(

you're correct the original droid has 854x480.
[HTC EVO 3D] crabjoe:
You're correct... Still, with a smaller screen, the pixels per sq inch has to be similar. And to be honest, I don't most people will even notice a difference on a screen of 800 X 480 or 960x540, if all other things were equal. Even if there was a noticable difference, it's probably only noticable if you were to hold the phones side by side.
[HTC EVO 3D] bradleyw801:
I actually agree with the OP, it is a pretty big deal. The iPhone 4 is amazingly clear. Videos look sharper, and crisper, and despite Steve Jobs mumbo jumbo about it being more than a retina can actually behlod, it really does come down to being a very high resolution screen.

I have always been happy with the Evo over it, because I would rather have a larger screen that is close in resolution, but I think that this resolution, on this size of a screen, is pretty cutting edge.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jonalexgalaxy:
hi xda

first post, 2 week old first android phone (galaxy s GT-I9000).

I've just rooted my phone using super one click. im always reading that i HAVE to perform a nandroid backup before i do ANYTHING after i've rooted my device.

When i google "how to nandroid", i just get "get into recovery mode, select 'nandroid backup'.

But there isn't any back up options, only the standard 4 options: reboot, apply update, wipe data/facotry reset and wipe cache.

2 questions:

1) what must i do after rooting to make the nandroid option available? Surely doing THAT is doing something, therefore putting my phone at risk?

and thus,

2) what can i exactly do after rooting, before performing a nandroid? one click lag fix? normal use? installing a ROM? My understanding is that the nandroid backup is in case installing a ROM goes wrong, but then again a lot of the 'how tos' say you should instal clockworkmod, or rom manager before making a nandroid.

Please shed light.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Dirk:
You need a custom recovery like cwm installed to do a backup and for flashing ROMs. Whether you choose to do so is up to you, but there are advantages to being rooted either way i.e Apps that require root access to work.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jonalexgalaxy:
thanks for your reply - please clear something up for me...

Everything i read says do a nandroid before you flash anything, but then it sounds like you have to flash a recovery ROM in order to do a nandroid?

Please let me know

1) how to install cwm recovery ROM and

2) what can go wrong? (since i'm doing this before making a nandroid)

3) can i install the recovery ROM before i root?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jonalexgalaxy:
okay

at the moment i've got this far:

rooted? check. (super1click)

rom manager installed? check.

problem:

when i click flash clockworkrecovery ROM in ROM manager, it prompts me to choose my model (Galaxy I9000 International). Then it prompts me to allow poweruser functions, which i do. Then it saus something to the effect of "ClockworkRecovery ROM has been downloaded!"

note: not flashed, or installed, downloaded.

That finished the 'flashing' process. Now, if i select back up, it boots into recovery mode, but its still running the stock android recovery (2e), without any option to perform a nandroid backup!

How the hell do i do this? aargh.

help would be apprciated.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Dirk:
Go back into Rom Manager and again select install CWM and then backup current ROM. (sometimes it just needs doing again).

While you are using a stock ROM the stock Recovery will reassert itself on every boot, so having to flash CWM multiple times is not uncommon. Of course, this behaviour stops if you flash a custom ROM.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jonalexgalaxy:
I've flashed it 3 times.. still no cwm recovery Rom... how many timed should I do this before trying something else, and what is that something else?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jonalexgalaxy:
Just flashed another 3 times. Still nothing... please help!

Hey Everyone,

So I had installed & used the HDMI Mod successfully, but decided to purchase a laptop dock to try out for work. I had originally tried out the laptop dock when I first had the phone & it worked just fine; it would go right to the laptop mode when docked like it's supposed to, but now after I modded it, it doesnt work.

I try to set it in the dock & nothing happens. I've tried several methods to unmod & replace the original APK's as instructed int he OP, but that didn't work, so I finally went as far as to reimage with the retail SBK, which worked fine but still not dock success.

Anyone have any ideas on what needs to be done to get the docking working again? Any help would be appreciated.

[Atrix 4G Accessories] Mafisometal:
easiest solution is to hop over the Dev section of the forum and download the 1.5.2 sbf and flash your phone back to normal. It will work, i had that same issue after i tried to get a full linux to run...after flashing the sbf it goes back to normal and webtop works again.

If not you might want to return it and get a replacement...it might be the device lost some crucial file that sbf doesn't carry.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pistol44:
Tricky question for everyone..

I'm one of the unlucky few whose push notifications died recently. I still get them for things like email, sms, Xbox, Messenger, eBay app.. but other things like Alpha Jax, Who's Near Me and a few others now give errors that they can't connect to the push servers. I've read this is an issue related to MS directly.

I'm wondering if anyone that received NoDo can confirm this was resolved by the update? Many like me were hoping so. So far the only resolution has been to hard reset but I'm avoiding this at all costs if possible.

EDIT:

Peew917 has confirmed below that the NoDo update has not fixed this issue. Sad but true.

Something just hit me... NoDo didn't fix the apps already installed, maybe if I had deleted and reinstalled them then it would have been different. We would need someone to try this just in case (I already did the reset).
