[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jprakes:
so here's an update to my problem so far. What I had left out earlier was that I could install a new ROM, and I could reboot my phone and it would work fine. Not until I used Titanium Backup and restored all of my apps and settings did I run into a problem. With that said, I did as PGleo86 said. This time, it worked just as it had before. Phone was fine, until I restored data. So I thought about what I had installed last. So the last time I wiped everything and installed CM7, I used Titanium Backup, but this time I omitted a few programs and settings, namely, Amazon App Store and Angry Birds Rio. This time when I rebooted, it worked fine. So I am slowly going to restore the settings, apps, and data I omitted one at a time and reboot my phone to see if any of them put me into boot loop. Has anyone heard of anything like this before? Particularly with Amazon App Store or Angry Birds Rio? (I did recently upgrade my version of Swype as well)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donnyp1:
From what I understand, its restoring the data that is killin it. You can restore all the apps you like, but when you start restoring data, it seriously screws with alot of roms. You will keep having the issue as long as your restoring data. Good luck dude
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zaphnafein:
This may take a while but try reloading a few apps at a time to see which on in particular is causing the issue. I saw a post like this somewhere on this massive forum, but the person found out it was one app that was killing the boot process.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luke1987:
Different roms store data in different places. So titanium is writing data to somewhere it shouldn't be.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scarmona:
I tried posting this in the app and themes forum but had no luck, I have an issue with the Medscape app. I wasn't able to update the library so I uninstalled the app and manually deleted the library files from me Medscape folder, later I learned that the update problem was because of the adblock app. I solved that and tried to reinstall Medscape, so far so good. When I try to re install the library files, the app tells me theres no update available (???) and it shows the current files as if they are installed, but the folder is still deleted and when I try to look up something in the database, nothing comes up.

Is there a way to wipe completely the Medscape db registry so I can do clean install?

Thanks a lot
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sammy_user:
I had the exact same problem and I wasn't able to solve it... Only a factory reset did it...

I'm not root but if you are root go to /data folder and delete medscape info from that. I think it might work.

The problem is that you deleted the Mescape folder from your SD card but it contains a database file (maybe the index of articles) so anything you search returns nothing!

The solution would be to delete that old account information and data, and I think it resides in the /data folder but I can't confirm that because I'm not root.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scarmona:
Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't work. Nothing related to medscape on the /data folder. I'll keep looking or I'll clean install when I flash Gingerbread :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dominick:
Having similar Medscape problem, this time I cannot delete Medscape pics/icons in my Gallery. Practically FC's whenever I try to open.

These are .PNG files - is there a trick to delete these?

===

UPDATE: I discovered that I could delete one of the PNG pics in the Gallery folder but not delete a second one - the Gallery app would freeze. It actually required a power ON/OFF to "reset" the gallery folder (whose ("number of files") did show that the pic was indeed deleted) and permit me to delete another image. For some reason, as I was fiddling with the FILES app, a Medscape folder popped up (it hadn't appeared before) and it had hundreds of low-kb files in it, including the PNGs. Luckily I was able to delete this Medscape folder without a hitch... other than the 2 minutes it took to actually delete. And wouldn't you know it: my Epic is running faster than ever. What is in that Medscape app I wonder...

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] therion21:
My issue is another,

I m using SG2 rooted, i removed my ad blocker and re install Medscape.

So i finaly managed to start instaling the resaurces .... the resaurces started from 1 of 24 ...and downloading ...

Is it logical to keep downloading ...after the 24 ... has been downloaded already?

for example 34 of 24 ...and keep going??
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Medici87:
Hi!

I've a problem when trying to update my Medscape app. When I try to get ref updates, it suddently appears: "Not able to complete download at this time"

I've read this post , where they speak about ad blocking apps causing this problem, however I'm using cyanogenmod CM11 M12, without any apps of this kind, more over, I searched for Hosts file, and when I open it, there's only this line: "127.0.0.1 localhost". I don't know what else to do, I've tried unistalling the app, cleaning all data before so, In deed, I've also tried to do a clean install of CM11 M12, with no luck.

Wish you could help me!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Daneshm90:
Tht is why i suggested against root explorer.

Frankly first thing an android user should do is get familiar with adb, its a life saver.

Once u have adb setup, follow the instructions i posted in that thread and linked to by the OP.

Fyi : Wrong section to post this, expect some flaming :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Devil1978:
Ok thank you. Now in another forum i have read that i must delete some unneeded system apps in system/apps to make free 6-7 mb.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Daneshm90:
Yes, if u use the instructions i posted with adb, then u dont need to

Once u remove framework-res, there is sufficient space to replace it with modded one.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakeboys:

First of all welcome! If you flashed the theme in. the recovery menu then you should be good to go. Try nandroid restoring and flashing a different theme, the theme you picked could be corrupt. Also try reflashing.

Also I noticed the page where you downloaded the theme states this "

These are ports of my Nexus One themes. I don't have an EVO 4G, so please test and post results."

So its likely they don't work...its ok because there are many other themes out there.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RyanTBDM:
I've build an AOSP ROM for the original Motorola Droid and everything runs fine and its FAST, but there are a few things I've been unable to fix.

The Calling/3G and GPS is broken and I don't know how to fix it.

If I flash another Kernel (P3Droid's) it all works fine.

I've included the Kernel and updated my updater-script in my ROM's update.zip but still doesn't work from flash.

Like I said, I could flash that kernel by itself after the ROM and it fixed but when I include the kernel in my update.zip it doesn't work...
[EVO 4G General] dongator7:
Well, I don't know what to do at this point besides unrooting and taking it to sprint.

I had no problems with my SD card when running miui. I switched to cm7 and the rom was working just finw until the SD card was no longer read. The gallery/music app would no longer find anything on the SD card...and my SD card apps were gone. Yet, the phone was able to read the SD card with a file explorer. I first thought it was a rom problem...but it doesn't seem like it. I already wiped and reflashed several other roms and I'm still having the same SD card issues. I have already reformatted the card and started from scratch ..with no luck. I've also done the SD card fix by calkun with no solution. Additionally ..I've tried other SD cards and still not able to have a read/write on my phone :(

What could be the problem here and what's a possible fix? I'm desperate for help and I've tried researching to find a solution..but nothing seems to work.

I would gladly appreciate some help
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
if you tried other roms, other cards, formatting and such. check your card in a pc, if flawless then you got yourself a hardware malfunctioning evo
[EVO 4G General] dongator7:
Yup no problems with reading/writing from a PC

Its weird. Something very similar happened to my brother and he was like that for weeks ...and it magically fixed itself someday.

And I don't see why it would be a malfunctioning evo when I had no problems and it happened all of a sudden without any physical damage.
[EVO 4G General] freeza:

Hi,

I want to improve the sound quality of my Nexus S. It seems that I should follow either the James Bond Kernal: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=949292, or the Honity one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=973125. I'm a newbie here and can someone tell me how to "update a kernel"?

FYI, I just tried rooted my Nexus S but somehow it stuck at the google screen after clockwork reboot. So I ended up recovering to 2.3.2: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=884194. At least it's not a brick now. Much appreciated if anyone can point to me what I did wrong (I was following http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=9866675 with recovery-clockwork-3.0.0.5-crespo.img but I could never enter android).

Anyway, so I was on 2.3.2 and then I tried two ways:

1. I adb pushed the og-ns-STK-ext4-VS-VC-BLN-1.4.6.1.zip file and tried install from sdcard at recovery mode. It didn't work and stuck at the Google screen (there's an unlock lock below "google").

2. I entered the fastboot page and used fastboot flash boot path_to_jamesbond\boot.img (yes I'm using windows 7 32bit). I got the same result: stuck at google page.

Please help!

Many thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peeturr:
When you went back to 2.3.2 and flashed the kernel, you flashed an incompatible kernel. You downloaded a kernel for 2.3.3 instead of 2.3.2 so therefore it didn't boot. You're sort of on the right track, just download the proper kernel. He has a 2.3.2 kernel available. Flash that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidDeer:

[Thunderbolt General] solidunit:
You can do something like this with Fring as well, right ?
[Thunderbolt General] wtfmate913:
Yes.

Under Sipdroid's description in market: "Being open source, Sipdroid has often been cloned appearing under names such as Guava, aDIP, Fritz!App,..."

You can actually do it without Sipdroid on phones with Gingerbread (its built into the settings you just enter your ipcomms info) but we don't have it yet, and the gingerbread version has very few adjustable settings.

there are also alternatives to GV dialer as well as sites that offer free DID numbers for inbound calls, but this setup has worked fine for me.
[Thunderbolt General] klisp:
I'll give it a try, thanks!
[Thunderbolt General] quattr0:
Yup been using it to also send and receive free text. I use ipkall tho

Free us calls, not worldwide of course
[Thunderbolt General] otto888:
Any other sip providers working? Using Ekiga and ipkall for Gv calling,doesn't work so well on CSipSimple...... Would like to transition to another service easily as possible,and ipcomms is a bit confusing.
[Thunderbolt General] 1454:
An easier method is to just download GV and GVoice callback. http://www.appbrain.com/app/google-voice-callback-free/com.xinlu.gvdial

I don't have sipdroid on my phone, and I can "dialout" using this with my google voice number. It shows up on the other phone as my GV # and I checked my bill for the calls (I used it for a whole day one time to see what would happen and didn't have calls on my bill for that day) and they weren't there. I tried to do the sip droid method one time, and I had a hard time getting it setup. So I just gave up. But this solution seems to work like a charm for me.
[Thunderbolt General] gruss01:
+1 but this only works if you have F&F and have a number to burn to put in there. Don't use it much but when calling my bud in canada or maybe a conference call i use it and it works just swell....on an incredible though, I"m still a wannabe:p
[Thunderbolt General] 1454:
I got a free number from goog. Sorry, I'm bad with acronyms, what does F&F stand for?
[Thunderbolt General] shaddix2:
Sipdroid thing was annoying when I tried it. I really prefer gv callback. I have it set up to ask me every time. Its pretty sweet.
[Thunderbolt General] wtfmate913:
so how exactly do you do this without sipdroid? I've got gv callback and its like the same as gv dialer asks which number i want to forward to, you're saying you can forward to google voice somehow? gv callback has option to start sipdroid before callback, so i would assume i still need something to handle the call received? Do I use google talk as callback number?
[Thunderbolt General] 1454:
Do you have a google voice number? If not, go get one. It's free. Use you're regular gmail account to set it up. Then download goog voice also. There will be an option to use GV as the call back number. (also under the online GV settings you have to link you're mobile to the GV #). last, then you just set it to ask you every time to call you back, then when you go to call someone it will give you the option to use GV or not. If still need help I'll pm you my phone.
[Thunderbolt General] wtfmate913:
i have a google voice number, and the google voice app already. what do you mean forward to your GV number? Under google voice app there are no forwarding settings.
[Thunderbolt General] wtfmate913:
you mean you forward to your mobile number on google voice online settings, as in your verizon number? And it doesn't charge you any minutes? I'm pretty sure it still counts as using your minutes, you checked exactly when you called and compared it to the dates and times on your bill?
[Thunderbolt General] shaddix2:
Gv callback requires friends and family to be of any benefit. Sipdroid allows you to make calls over your data connection, uses no minutes. It lags heavily though, not recommended if you have friends and family at your disposal.
[Thunderbolt General] 1454:
edit, see my post to shaddix
[Thunderbolt General] 1454:
I'm sorry, I've been mistaken. Somehow the actual GV app gives me the option to make voice calls. That is what i have been using. GV I downloaded but never set up. Not sure how I ended up with such a confusion. It used to just give the option to make international calls, but now you can set it up to ask everytime. I'm not yet rooted or I would take some screen shots.
[Thunderbolt General] quattr0:
I'm sorry but if you use f&f to begin with then y going thru all the hassle since f&f doesn't bill used minutes?

Sipdroid is better when you're on lte. If you are on conference calls a lot, sipdroid does help saving those minutes
[Thunderbolt General] shaddix2:
You can just use 1 f&f slot for all your calls
[Thunderbolt General] quattr0:
Ah, thank you.

Do you get free texting using only GV? I know $10/month is not a whole lot but for those that have only voice (no text plan), it will come in handy.
[Thunderbolt General] tarheeldan:
Yup, except my old # still exists of course, and a few stragglers keep texting it - which forced me to keep a $5 text plan for this transition month. I'm not seeing texts sent to my GV # pop up in usage when logging in to VZW :-)Just gotta get those stragglers on the same page...
[Thunderbolt General] shaddix2:
My family was on att. We were paying 185 for 5 lines 800mins, unlimited text. 4 dumbphones, 1 android with 30$ data.(data that never worked fyi)

Now on vzw my gf moved to a dinc so we have two android phones. I set her up with Gv though so her 1500 texts and month are now free. We are paying 200 a month for all 5 lines, 1400 mins, and data that works. So 15 extra a month for her to have a dinc, me have a tbolt, and the rest of my family to have actual coverage. I'm trying to find out how to get on a lower minute plan with just 5 f&f though.

hey guys...can someone explain to me what this calling back thing does?

I dont understand at all..right now I'm using Google Voice with Sipdroid to make my outgoing calls. It works even though I live in Malaysia..Before I got Sipdroid my calls with GV werent going thru...so what is this Gv call back thing do anyway?

I get a call back and what happens ?
