You should try enabling the dehydration reg trick that was on here some time ago. It makes resuming apps instant, but I mean instant, no resuming screen it is pretty amazing.
[Focus General] JamesAllen:
Nice

Nice writeup. I tried to take the plunge but have not been successful Chevron unlocking. I am running Windows XP so that could be the problem. I guess I'll have to wait.
[Focus General] bennyj71:
Have not been living under a rock. I have read this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=834144. In it it mentions the "three button salute". Everyone that said they used that method hasn't had any problems. They are plenty of people that post problems, but they don't mention using that method to format their card. BTW, I have 2 GB free on my phone. I've been over 13GB since Feb 20. Not one slowdown or reset.
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
you have been misled- plenty of people that have used the 3 button method have had issues
[Focus General] bennyj71:
Maybe, but the pace of complaints has slowed drasticly. After reading the Pre-Nodo and Nodo threads. Everyone that has a Focus on there has an SD card. A bunch of low grade Chinese(Low Grade? Chinese? Same Thing?) companies were making crappy SD Cards even before WP7. BTW, I loaded up all the cards for my friends. The 32GB has 10.23 free, one 16GB has 7.81 free. The other 16GB has 14.32 free. The 8gb has 7.3 free. Like I said the postings for this are way down, so I thought this was a non-issue
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
you da man benny LOL
[Focus General] FishFaceMcGee:
So, I just got NoDo and I'm re-syncing my content. Has anyone else noticed an issue where it will stop syncing, saying that the phone was disconnected? I haven't restarted my computer (though I have the Focus), so I'l try that next. I remember having this a while ago before even pre-nodo and I ended up "fixing it" by doing wi-fi sync only and then at some point plugging it in worked fine.

Weird. After I got past about 4.5 GB used, it never gave the disconnect error again.
[Focus General] knwldg0010:
ame Sync issues

I was having the same sync issues. It would connect and then say it was disconnected, after restarting my pc and connecting the phone to several other usb ports, the issue seems to have gone away. I can't find where it gives you the option to restore your backup though?
[Focus General] TriAxisFL:
I'm still on 7004 and all of these versions are the same on 7004 as well. So it seems like nothing else besides the OS has been updated from 7004 to 7008 to NoDo.

Im really hoping for an official SD card fix. But that is probably at the firmware level.
[Focus General] asiancuta:
the option only shows up if you "check for update" in zune. if it's up to date than it will give you the option under all the blah blah to restore a backup.
[Focus General] asiancuta:
definite typical improvement notices of loading apps, resumes, market search and loading...slightly quicker.

not necessarily a fix..but i noticed if you hold down on a link in the browser there is now an option to copy the link.

no fix to the camera options saving after use.

did the update last night and haven't had much time to play with it. will report more findings if i find any.
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
Bennyj reported that the sd card issue was fixed a long time ago, with the 3 finger salute method. Hmmmmm. What say you all.
[Focus General] FishFaceMcGee:
He's not the first person to say that the three-finger-salute "fixes" it. However, it truly depends on what you're trying to fix. For example, the three finger salute did not make the Class 4 32GB Kingston card stop being a slow piece of a **** for syncing. Nor did it make my Class 2 32GB Sandisk card stable.

I'd be willing to wager that, if there truly is a difference in how the phone is formatted depending on the method, the 3 button press may fix more minor issues. However, I can't imagine a scenario where just formatting it differently would make such an improvement as to make cards that would force phones to constantly reset more stable.
[Focus General] djca:
I upgraded to Nodo with no microSD card. I then did a hard reset and re-installed my 16GB MicroCenter card to try if Nodo made it more stable. This morning it restarted on its own, so I decided to restore my backup. The restore process failed until I did a hard reset and reformatted without the microSD card, and did the restore again. That brought my phone back to pre-Nodo and now I just finished bringing it back up to Nodo.
[Focus General] asiancuta:
good question. I don't think MS has anything to with the firmware. I'm gonna assume that's a Samsung issue, and therefore Samsung would issue the update on their website...right??
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
Ya know they may be adding it to the MS update, If thats the case all of us who updated early will not get them, unless you restore to 2008 or 2004.

I dont even know if its possible for ATT to add firmware tweaks to the update and then have MS push it. I guess we will have to wait and see, if ATT even ever gets through "Teasting/Screwing us over. :)
[Focus General] ryotgz:
I can confirm the audio out is MUCH better. A lot more depth to music whereas is was shallow and mostly treble.
[Focus General] knwldg0010:

Thank you. I tried checking for update after nodo and it took forever so i backed out.

[Focus General] jspare:
I have a 16GB Samsung card and it is perfect before and after the nodo update (I have had over 16GB of data on the phone for months now). I have noticed it is much faster all around. The Marketplace actually works without hanging. I have noticed better audio to my mini cooper's bluetooth when making calls. Battery life seems a bit worse for me. I am not sure why. It is still very good. It might just be because I am playing with it more now that it is not so sluggish. I was able to keep my Chevron hack.

Basically, this is the way it should have been back in November. With nodo we are only about 1.5-2 years behind other smartphones instead of 3! lol ;-)
[Focus General] mcorrie1121:
Wasn't this update supposed to make marketplace searches better? E.g. separate apps and music.
[Focus General] Sebo1985:
It did, just hit the search button inside apps or music in marketplace.
[Focus General] FishFaceMcGee:
Not sure if anyone else has looked into it, but so far I have not noticed the music stuttering problem post-NoDo.
[Focus General] FishFaceMcGee:
...and I spoke too soon. The very first song I played today stuttered at the end. It does seem less common, however.
[Focus General] liquidiq:
Yea, it seems less common. I haven't run into it with Zune or non-Zune tracks. It usually happened with the Zune tracks. That was an annoying bug!
[Focus General] ZaidSenall:
NoDo has made my phone faster, Marketplace more stable, and copy and paste was a much needed addition. I have only found two drawbacks:

- my battery drains faster

- my GPS takes longer to lock (i'm hoping that the GPS locking delay is because the skies have been cloudy these past few days and not because of NoDo)

Can anyone confirm?
[Focus General] jamccart:
It does. If you go into marketplace and then into the apps, then do a search, it will only return apps. If you only go into marketplace and then search, it will return all.
[Focus General] OGCF:
Yes I'm also curious if NoDo fixes the SD card situation at all.

I have NoDo on my Focus but it was through the forced update so maybe the AT&T has more device specific fixes? I also haven't noticed any major change in sound quality but I'm using fairly basic headphones so maybe I can't really tell.
[Focus General] aksmurf:
I'm still having problems with setting it on a soft surface, didn't notice it until about a month ago. Works fine on some but not others still. Is it possible that its just static interference coming from the surface its laying on?
[Focus General] wrxdrunkie:
I used the three finger method, never had data loss issues really. But my phone would always slow down, lock up, and just become unresponsive the more and more full it became. Now I am using my phone without the sd card and it is much more enjoyable.

anyone else having problems with the latest launcherpro update that came out today?

since installing my app drawer isn't working properly.

It will open up, but once i scroll it jumps back to the homescreen
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jawonder:
Yep , when click on any Message on the Gmail widget Launcher Pro force closes .
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] hiitsrich:
same problem here. do you know how to uninstall and install an older version of launcherpro w/o disrupting the other apps?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] subnet99:
Same problem here.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ace7196:
Download it from the LauncherPro site (although you won't get updates from the market, you can also upgrade later from there manually):

http://bit.ly/f4BS8V

It's an app just like everything else. The best way to do it (I think?) would be to go to manage applications, uninstall LauncherPro, long press home, open up your browser (make sure you have it on the menu before hand as well) to and get to the above page, download the apk, click install, THEN click home. If it asks what launcher, then just choose LauncherPro and make it your default.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] pjo1966:
I was having the same problem before the update too.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RamosDevil:
I had the same issue, i went to launcherpro.com and downloaded the .apk for the previous version and opened in astro. That brought me to the application manager, where i chose to uninstall launcherpro, then reinstalled from the .apk. I had to rearrange my homescreens and reactivate pro, but no more crashes. Hope that helps!

(Btw, i am running stock 1.1, autonootered)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Mjailme:
I unistalled my prior version before installing the new update. only issue I have run into is not being able to log on to facebook viathe lp widget.

Since I installed the previous release, the other apps that were crashing are now working. There was something seriously funky in the most recent update.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] bikercr:
I had the same problems and uninstalled LP. Went with ADW launcher which I like a lot better.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] davidukfl:
Launcherpro just updated again, one of the reasons was force close issues with certain 2.1 devices....eg. Nook color.

I'll update to the newer version tonight and see if it fixed the problem. Glad to see they are on top of their game in fixing problems though
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] pjo1966:
The new update did the trick for me. There were other apps that kept closing that are working now as well.

ok. ive used the one click root... ive used the script root method... downloaded the correct files. but i can't seem to get root.... both methods says i have root and its good to go but no superuser icon and i even tried using the one on the market just incase i need to... nothing still and ive tried over hours and hours... i don't know what else to do... anyone?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dadsterflip:
i can't even get root permission to log into cwk. to flash it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosympathy:
i didn't do the one click root, but, in the long root version, and I am sure it is the same, you need to install SU from the market, and then if you do not get SU access right away, reboot the phone a couple times.

If you turn your phone off, and then back on while holding vol down and power, does it say MECH S-OFF at the top? If it still says S-ON or security warning, you didn't root your phone right, if it says S-OFF your rooted, and you just need to get SU working by rebooting a few times.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magneticzero:
Hope that works for them. I wonder if fastboot, where it doesnt shut the phone down 100% and suspends the phone in memory, could be an issue or no?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spursrchamps2007:
the only problems root wise i ran into (and i did it the adb way) was super user wouldnt initially give rights. I solved this each and everytime by one reboot. (clockwork i didnt have rights) restarted phone superuser came up with the box for me to give cw rights. Then i installed Tit backup form the market. No rights again, a restart and problem solved. Dont know why it was buggy but try that.

is it normal to see. usb device not recognized? while its on the hboot loading the update through? it only says that while its updating the hboot or loading the PG05IMG.zip. otherwise i have all the right drivers for it.

update.... still not luck. i used the script root... at the end i have s-on.... on the first downgrade i have s-off but at the very end of the script to add the other update ppg05img, it turns the s-on back... sooooo whats wrong with it or what am i doing wrong?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spursrchamps2007:
if your having that many issues with the quick root method (ill be honest I havent looked at the instructions for it) i really would suggest doing it manually (the method that was first released). I wanted to post the links for you but i dont have enough posts yet to do so. The instructions i used are on droid-life . com. Once your there go to search and type in thunderbolt root. Another one click root method will be the first topic. Go there and youll see two hyperlinks (here) and (here) in the first paragraph.Click the second one and youll see the list of instructions and a link to a video, showing you how to do it. The original video is very fast but once it starts playing it will give you step one and step two links. This video is very helpful and very detailed. Anyway hope that helps.

Any questions leave a post.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dadsterflip:

Well, I've noticed my 3G speeds dropping lower and lower in the past few months. Today I decided to update my radios, unroot and update my PRL. I even called sprint and was on the phone with them for an hour.

My average speed tests were 80kb/s.

The tech on the phone gave up after she walked me thru reflashing completely. So tomorrow I'm going to a service center where they will most likely give me a new one.

It's only been 2 hours and I'm already missing my Cyanogen goodness.
[EVO 4G General] Razgriz:

[EVO 4G General] ffolkes:
80 kb/s or 80 kB/s? Big difference... :P

About 90 kB/s is the fastest I've ever gotten on 3G.

Although many times during peak hours I've seen ~60 kb/s (which is about 6 kB/s assuming simple base 10) which is truly 56K modem speeds.
[EVO 4G General] _MetalHead_:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluemoon1221:
Until yesterday, i was running cm7 on my captivate.

Today i switched to darky 9.5.

Before I flashed darky I did a backup of all user apps+data.

After I got darky i restored missing apps+data.

Everything was fine until I realized that all my games would just force close right when I open it...

I tried to solve it by uninstalling, downloading again then restoring data only but it still force close.. I also tried reflashing...

My games do work if I just restore the app. And all my other apps are fine.

Anyone know what the problem is?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
You created your backups on a Gingerbread-based ROM and restored them on a Froyo-based ROM. The saved data is probably not compatible even though the program is.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
If it's the same exact build of the rom, and you wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing it, 90% of the time you're okay. It's if you don't wipe cache's, or if it's a different build by the same developer, when you run into issues. However, if you do flash it over, and get weird issues and what not, a full wipe and reflash is in order.
