[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kk_xiii:
Hi all, recently my SGS software crashes and need to reflash the phone, due to that all my data was gone. I check my PC for backup but the only file i found was a file named <MessageViewer001 - SME file> found in the Kies Folder. How can I restore it? I try using Kies but it doesnt seems to have an application to do it. Please help on this matter. Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] webwude:
It sounds like you didn't actually do any sort of backup (with kies or apps).

My guess is, your data is lost - the file you mentioned seems some sort of temporary (just a wild guess).

Kind regards,

ww
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Webwude is right

you never backed up = TRUE = you wiped all your data .

An outside chance is to try Recuva and see if any data is recoverable .

RTFM holds true .

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
Remember, do daily or weekly Titanium and Nandroid backups and delete backups more than a month old unless you need them.

It is time you will consider wasted...until you need the backup. It removes a lot of the tension as you flash and reflash to know you have a nandroid backup that can get your phone back up in 10 minutes...and Titanium backups of all the apps you love.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Untamed.nl:
Hi kk_xiii

I was in that same tight spot as you are in right now. I did manage to recover a lot of my data by using the following method:

1. Make sure you do not copy any more data to your phone. in fact

stop using it right now

!

2. find a decent data recovery tool (i used an old version of Easeus i had laying around. It can search for RAW data)

3. connect to your pc using mass storage mode (settings > wireless and networking > usb > mass storage)

4. your drive(s, if external sd is present) should be showing in windows explorer

5. fire up your data recover tool and let it scan your galaxy's internal memory.

6. recover data

7. make sure you backup next time!!

As mentioned before, i managed to recover almost all my data using this method. I hope this helps.

Wasn't sure which thread this should be in so I posted it here as my question. Please feel free to move it.

I just noticed that this game is now available for us. By when I retro download it in the market it won't download. It starts then quites(as do some other apps for some reason.) Is there another place or way I can download the game??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakeboys:
you said other apps, do all apps not download? I ask this because a few weeks back my market wouldnt download any apps and I had to wipe everything and reflash. Turns out it was an app causing the problem when I used titanium backup to restore apps. Just a thought if that is your problem.:rolleyes: Oh and to answer your main question, if its not what I previously mentioned then I suppose you could check androidzoom or app brain, I think they do stuff with apps. Last resort, check 4shared.com
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruki_Uki:
I say its about 90% of apps I try to download. Mainly it seems to be the ones I want, but if I pick any random app it'll download.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
You can try clearing your market cache, force stop it, the try again; or the above listed methods.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayharper08:
Probably going to have to move all your apps over to your phone and delete the android_secure folder. Then reboot and give it a try. Sounds like that folder got corrupted. Pretty common occurrence.

I've never put apps on the SD card, so I should be all set to do thY. But by erasing that folder would it erase anything on the phone?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayharper08:
Nope :) won't erase anything. Once you delete that folder (while nothing is in there)you will be good after reboot. It won't erase anything and it will create a new one once you start downloading again. Give me a few minutes and ill send ya the link :)

Here ya go. This will explain it all. I've had to do it 3-4 times with all the flashing I've done. This is the "more permanent fix" http://forum.androidcentral.com/gen...not-downloading-installing-image-warning.html

Followed step by step and I get "error deleting files". I'm using the free version of Astro to delete it because ES File Explorer doesn't even show the folder.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayharper08:
Not sure why es wouldn't be showing it under SD card files. Have you checked into maybe getting astro pro, or root explorer? If not, sure you could use adb to erase it.

I've deleted the folder and restarted and they still don't download, repeated process, and still no luck. Guess I gotta reflash :/
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayharper08:
:confused: Dang that sucks. Make sure you clear the data for the market and once one starts downloading, cancel it. Then try again right after you cancel it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rstuckmaier:
This probably won't help you any but just a heads up, you'll probably have a ton of download#.apk files in /sdcard/downloads
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruki_Uki:
Never cleared market cache before, how do I go about doing that??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruki_Uki:
I do have some in there, should I delete them?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayharper08:
Hit menu>settings>manage applications>all. Scroll down to market and hit the "clear data" and "clear cache" button. Then try :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruki_Uki:
Still nothing!!!! Apps still won't download even after doing all that they still won't download. :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayharper08:
Only thing I can thing to do is maybe delete the market and pull another market .apk from somewhere and reinstall the market if nothing else has worked.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruki_Uki:
I'll have to try that later when o get home from work when I can look for a market.apk. Maybe the market has just been getting jealous of me using the Amazon app store lately ;)

That game is way too addicting.

You could try using App Brain & Fast Web Installer to download apps. It actually works better/faster for me than downloading from the market. If you need the apks for those apps I can post them for you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruki_Uki:
Thanks. I've never tried app brain. The phone is having no problem downloading the link. I'm going to have to try deleting and reinstalling the market. Then if that fails its time to start fresh and reflash.

Also make sure that if Google Voice came with your ROM/GApps that it isn't being killed or hasn't been removed. That can cause problems.

[Android Software Development] josh4trunks:
Hey guys, I'm fairly new to android applications. I am specifically working on an android application that runs for the Notion Ink Adam. A guy by the name of Mr.Guy actually wrote the app nearly perfectly and provided the source to me but there is a small issue I want to work out, hopefully with some help.

Basically the app runs from a search button long press, runs a native linux command (which toggles the backlight on and off) and closes.

The problem with the current application is that if you have somethings open in a current window they are closed by this application running. An example is opening the app drawer on the homescreen. Running the application closes the app drawer. In some cases th interruption makes a greater difference like when viewing media.

Anyway heres the source, ftp://eto.homeip.net/Shared/NotionInkHacks/PQiToggle.zip

I think I need the application to run a service instead of an activity but this didn't seem to matter. I'm pritty sure I need it to not call a UI and just run the service.

An ideal fix for this is to skip the application and just rely on keycodes run from init.rc but trying to do this I had zero success. I'm not sure if the version of init in my rom supports keycodes.

If you could help me either with making it a service or allowing a native linux command run from keycodes I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!!!
[Android Software Development] alostpacket:
You can call a service directly from a broadcast receiver which can listen for the "on search long press" intent

Disclaimer:

I am not responsible for anything bad happened to your phone after you install this window animation mod

Install this mod at your own risk!!!

Don't forget to nand backup your phone before installing this mod.

Got bored of same window animation?

Here are some window animations I gathered from various sources on Internet, made them to work with metamorph so one can change window animation easily.

Instructions:

Download and install Metamorph

Download attached zip file, save to sdcard in directory '/sdcard/AndroidThemes'

Run Metamorph and select "Unzip/Extract new theme", you need to allow superuser permission

Select a zip file

After metamorph finished extracting theme, close the prompt and hit Apply all. The phone will reboot

Note:

Your phone may reboot several times

If your phone doesn't reboot, take battery out, put it back, and power on

To revert back to original window animation, get zip file on post #7

hhhmm no blur? i always see these samples, but still no blur....

-----------------

ok i finally merged the blur animation to my Nessy Fenice framework-res...

and this one looks better for minimalists like me.

not too fancy animations, tho i find it majority of the window animations on BLUR is just zoom in and out.

the only blur animation i can see is the MENU sliding up with blur effect and a little bounce after that.. cute.

tho after that, its all zoom in and out. hhmmm.. i hope other transitions also have those blur effect.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jasonblack:
I would like to pass a minimal boot image (something like ttylinux-arm) to fastboot. As I understand it, fastboot does not require the image be signed. If that is correct, is there any other fundamental obstacle to doing this other than building the image in a way that fastboot can deal with it.

I don't need the radio or buttons to work.

Also, from reading through the limited documentation that I've been able to find, it looks like 'fastboot boot' will boot an image from flash media and load it into memory without any ROM overwite - correct? I'd want to avoid touching the existing filesystem.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] drellisdee:
correct fastboot boot will load a kernel and intramfs packed into boot.img or recovery.img into ram and boot from it. Upon reboot you will boot from kernel on nand or whatever native filesystem your device has. Fastboot boot is for testing kernels without having to flash them to nand.

So I'm trying to edit the Touchwiz launcher, to have the page dots at the bottom, like Touchwiz 4.0...

I've already made the proper changes to the xmls, after decompiling the apk.

The problem i'm running into is compiling the apk.

it prompts me to delete the xmls that i've edited and resources.arsc from the "keep" folder, but i only have access to the things that are within resources.arsc.

If i don't delete resources.arsc, nothing changes....

If i DO delete resources.arsc, the compiled apk lacks it.

as far as i know, the things ive edited are within resources.arsc....so i don't know what to do at this point.

what exactly do i do to to keep the changes i've made?

The newer ROMs which are not (yet) rootable are versions 1.72 and above, and have only applied to the Desire Z (as far as the shipped ROM). The only existing T-Mobile G2 ROMs are 1.12 and 1.19 (both rootable using the "old" methods). To this point, there has not been any G2's which are not rootable due to security. So if in fact the new G2's are not rootable by design, it would seem that a new ROM was snuck in under the radar, or some other security implemented on these new units.
