Is it possible to dump original ROM before rooting the device? I was thinking if I could soft root Wildfire and dump original ROM before making a full root, so that I could restore the phone to its original state if needed (e.g. for warranty). Is it possible?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GlenH:
I've recently got hold of a desire Z, which is great.:D

Something that puzzles me though is why the scrolling, particularly text lists or large sections of text in the browser is so choppy?

The GPU in the desire Z is supposed to be much better than that in My Nexus 1, and indeed stuff like home screen scrolling is much smother on the DZ than on the N1.

However, weirdly, text scrolling is much smoother on the N1.

It doesn't seem to matter which rom I use either (tried a few, stock, virtuous, CM7).

800mhz.. overclock to 1.5 than report back.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GlenH:
Overclocking helps of course, but it's still not quite as smooth as the N1, even at 1.5GHz.

What seems odd to me is how the home screen is way smoother on the DZ, but text scrolling is worse.

Maybe it's something to do with the optimization of the adreno 205 vs the 200, or maybe it's a driver issue?

I used a guide to flash my Galaxy Tab to allow phone calls. Now I am no longer rooted, and I only get Edge network. I am still unable to get phone calls, but I may need a different T-Mobile SIM to allow for that. Will this change in firmware affect how I approach rooting my tab again? The last time I rooted my tab, I used the Superoneclick method. I don't have enough posts to ask in the development section. Just started this series of rooting and flashing ROMs about a week ago.I want to go back to the Overcome 1.4.0 ROM.:)

Hi all.

Is it possible to use multiple Sd cards on hima?

I did`t find any product that would split Sd card slot like hub or something.

I read article where it states that with MMC bus it would be possible to use multiple cards.

So is it possible to do that on himalaya?

If possible I am planing to wire MicroSD adapter to 2 SD slots (from old SD card readers). Will I need something in between like resistor, power supply or something else? Will I need some kind of driver to separate those cards data?

How large is the risk of burning SD slot on himalaya or is there safe way to test it without damaging my phone?

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] rccr:
I have just rooted my phone and installed xcyanogen v3.4 for the x10mini pro.

Everything worked fine, I have even managed to go into xRecovery after the installation and reinstalled xcyanogen three times.

This morning, I updated my Busybox from busybox installer from Market. Installed V1.19 busybox, I guess the previous one installed with cynogenmod6 was v1.15 then

The phone reboots suddenly, and hence after

*I only have an Unlock screen that works, displaying clock, charging stats, Sound off etc with NO SIGNALS

*If i unlock the screen, it will have a 'DSOmanager stopped Unexpectly force close' window followed by unlimited 'LauncherPro stopped Unexpectly force close' windows

*I am UNABLE to go into xRecovery to reinstall the system, unalbe to do anything now.

and the Phone reboots all the time automatically, but still get back to this unlock screen.

I am a newbie, any pros would help me pls? Thanks so much!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DustArma:
Newbie too, and had the same problem, phone would boot into a low resolution mode (everything looked huge), followed by most applications and widgets crashing, I was lucky enough for the phone to forget the association with ADW Launcher and it allowed me to use the default home screen when launching it.

Now I'm in the process of repairing it using SEUS, need to charge up the phone before, is there's a way to fix this without having to lose everything? (Can't use the backup service)

rccr, try accessing safe mode, hold the menu key while it's booting.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bendikfa:
Hi!

I've had some problems with my HD2. Of some reason, I updated the rom to spl-3.03.0000. Now I want to downgrade the spl version to an older version so I can install android. The problem is that I can't flash it with the SD-card.

This is how I do it. I've downloaded the spl version 1.49.0000. Put the leoimg.nbh file on the root of the SD-card. Then I press the voldown button and power button. When I do so, the tricolor screen appears. Shouldn't it be an option to install the NBH file then? I dont know what I do wrong! I've tried to follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=649009&page=3 , but it doesn't work.

Can someone give me some help with this? Can't stand windows mobile!

Thanks alot.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barrycollard:
I know people have been pretty unhappy with the service but HTCsense.com has worked fine for me since I booted up my phone back in October 2010.

I've been swapping between Sense and CM7 but always find myself ending up with the latter as it's just so much easier to use (currently on Nightly #32).

I think I know the answer to this but is there a way of linking up HTCsense.com within CM7 either by taking an APK out of the Sense system files or is it too deeply encoded within Sense for it to be extracted?

I've found all the other services (Lookout, WaveSecure, etc) to be fine on the first glimpse but there's always hidden charges or features that need money to be unlocked whereas HTCsense.com is a free service.

My main reasons for wanting HTCsense.com is the phone finder, the ability to make the phone ring (I know I can just call it) but also to remote wipe it.

Like I say I think the answer is no but thought it was worth checking.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
I don't know about getting HTCsense.com tracking to work on CM, but you could try this app Prey Phone Tracker. I'm currently using it and it's great.

I've been trying prey and I can see the benefits but it still doesn't have that great dashboard that htcsense.com has. Also being able to see and send texts from the same service is great.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paulplex:
My two pennies worth but Seek Droid (http://www.seekdroid.com) is very good: it's quicker (ie, more or less instant) at locking or wiping a phone - when testing with HTC's version, I'd send the request and nothing would happen for (sometimes) hours :S

It doesn't backup SMS for you or show you your phone book: however, since your phonebook is synced with Google, you can see the contacts via http://mail.google.com in any case. It does allow you to locate, lock, wipe or ring your phone remotely which is all you really need from remote software like this...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mooooo2:
thanks, but i have flashed the cm7, after that my nandroid backups didn't work and all my contacts & messages are just saved on htcsense.com

i just need to find a way to get them on my phone once...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barrycollard:
I think the ultimate goal here is to use CM7 but attain that singular piece of Sense code that syncs with htcsense.com and merge that with CM.

It would be great to setup CM7, go into accounts and settings and see the option for HTC within the usual crowd.

I get that there's alternatives such as Prey and backup software such as MyBackUp Pro, which do a great job, and you can also use a stock ROM with the Sense interface swapped out but oh to have those 3 letters appear within CM accounts would be fantastic.

[LG Optimus 2x] pookeee:
Im with you on that.. Im hoping that with the OPTIMUS 3D coming out real soon it will help the 2X stay at a reasonable price.. I bought the HD2 off contract for $449.. I wouldnt spend more than that for this phone..
[LG Optimus 2x] cenwesi:
I believe this phone off contract will probably be around $500.

The way i look at it, i will just renew my contract with tmobile and NOT pay the full price and hopefully if AT&T buys them then i can cancel my contract and hopefully NOT pay and penalty :)

The second source was someone else who also was told by a CSR rep.

that CSR is wrong as of right now the G2X is set for April 20th check out Tmonews. On April 20th 3 things are set to come out as of right now. The Sidekick 4G, G2X, and the G-Slate. I am a RSA and T-Mobile would of let the stores known if it was April 6th. We already have the new Nokia phone at my store for April 6th. So that CSR must of been thinking about the 20th when he was telling you what he told u.

Besides Copy/Paste...

* Faster apps and games. Nobody likes to wait. That’s why we’ve whittled down the time it takes for apps and games to start up and resume. It’s all part of our focus on getting you to the things you love, easier and faster.

* Better Marketplace search. We’ve streamlined Marketplace search to make it easier to find specific apps, games, or music. Press the Search button in the Apps or Games section of Marketplace and you’ll see only apps or games in the results. Press Search in the Music section of Marketplace to search just the music catalog.

* Other Marketplace improvements. We’ve improved the stability of Marketplace while you download apps. We’ve also improved the experience of downloading apps larger than 20 megabytes, upgrading from trial apps to paid apps, using a credit card with an address outside the United States, sharing links to apps via email, sorting Xbox LIVE games by release date, and creating an Xbox LIVE account from within the Games Hub.

* Wi-Fi improvements. We now display your phone’s Media Access Control (MAC) address in Settings. (You might need this info if you try to connect to a Wi-Fi network that uses MAC address filtering. To learn more, see Connect to a Wi-Fi network.) We’ve also removed the limit on the number of Wi-Fi profiles that you can store and reduced the time it takes to start your phone if you’ve stored lots of Wi-Fi profiles.

* Outlook improvements. We’ve improved the experience of viewing iPhone photo attachments you receive from a non-Exchange-based email account (such as a Google Mail, Hotmail, or Yahoo! Mail account), using the Global Address List (GAL) when connecting to Exchange Server 2003 using Exchange ActiveSync, and working with email display names that contain brackets (for example, “David Alexander [Contoso]“).

* Messaging improvements. We’ve improved the experience of receiving Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) messages if your phone uses a PIN-locked SIM.

* Facebook integration. We’ve improved the experience of syncing Facebook accounts.

* Camera improvements. We’ve improved the stability of switching between camera and video modes.

* Audio improvements. We’ve improved the experience of using a Bluetooth headset to make calls when you’re playing music or videos.

* Other performance improvements. This month’s update also includes software from several phone manufacturers that improves the performance of specific models. Naturally, if you don’t have one of the affected models, we won’t install this portion of the update on your phone.

I am the proud owner of an LG Optimus 2X Speed.

It has an internal SD card. If you mount your own SD it is mounted under //mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD. How can I install apps to the external SD?

App2SD won't work. It just copies apps from flash to internal SD. (so //mnt/sdcard/).

I've searched high and low for an answer. The closest I've come to someone sharing my problem is this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=842053

Can't be done without mount point changes in the kernel.

Surely /data + /sdcard is sufficient for apps?

This is going to be like the 720p issue for the Nexus One, it will become the most hated question on this forum very quickly I feel... :)

My recommendation, which will give you more than you can use:

* apps to internal

* External app data to /sdcard

* Multimedia, roms, backups etc /ExternalSD

Some apps don't yet recognise /ExternalSD as a legitimate location so hassle the devs, it's standard Android (now).
[LG Optimus 2x] xavdeman:
Well, the main problem is the maps from CoPilot Live. The Europe maps can't be downloaded since they are too big. I would like to have them on the ExternalSD. This may be going beyond the scope of the original question, but since that's the main reason I'm asking it would be appreciated...

So, how can I make Copilot Live download to the External SD? Or can't you make some symlink so that the apps can be on External SD but Android thinks they're on internal ?
[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
The easiest way around this probably is to contact the app dev and ask him to implement a way users can select where to grab those files from.

I wonder how this issue was resolved with the Galaxy S, didn't that one have an internal SD too?
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Yes, the above answer is correct. It's not just the easiest way, it's the best way.

I realise it's a practical problem for you but via the dev is the only way really. They should be quicker (especially for paid apps!) because this "issue" (internal SD) has been around since what, May last year... :rolleyes:

Until we get a custom kernel it can't be solved (except via dev) and even with a custom kernel that re-mapped everything I'd be very hesitant to do this, it will break standard stuff I'm sure.
[LG Optimus 2x] Andrew-oid:
Using ExternalSD Space for CoPilot

I'm by no means an expert with Android, but I've been using UNIX since working at Bell Labs in the mid-70s and I've used the link command to "fool" many a UNIX app. As it happens, you could use the same command "ln" to do the same. Just create a directory on ExternalSD and ln that one into the directory tree at the desired "mount" point. For CoPilot, that would probably be /SD/copilot/EU, SA, NA, etc. It should work fine since CoPilot almost certainly cannot "see through" this link - that, while possible, would be a true violation of standards.

I've done something similar with Android to put application cache space in one place on the SD mount-point. See here -> androidcommunity dot com/forums/f4/updated-move-caches-to-sd-card-11167 for details (I haven't done enough posts to be able to post a link). Just use a variation on this method to put the copilot maps where you have space. This worked for every app I tried it with.

That's just my opinion... I could be wrong,

Hi Guys, i was just wondering if this has been done beofre, and if not why not?

I was wondering if your phone could read your caledar and adjust the phone's ringtone, ring volume level, key tones etc to suit.

scenario 1: your calendar says you are in a meeting at work, phone automatically goes onto silent and mutles all sounds.

Scenario 2: calendar says at work, phone goes onto vibrate or lowest audiable level of sound and disable key tones.

Scenario 3: calendar says nothing, phone goes onto loud ring with full keytones.

These could be setup for outdoor pursuits, dates, and maybe even a bed time setting.

When i owned a BB bold, you could place your phone into the dock and it would automatically turn off all sounds etc, could this be done based on just the time of the day.

Obviously not everyone uses their caeldar to log every part of their life in great detail, but it would even work for those who DO put things like meeting into their calendar, to save the embarrassment of having your phone go off mid-meeting.

Im sure that some of this could be done using tasker, but for those who find tasker a bit daunting, this could be ideal!

Thanks Guys
