[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] Mioze7Ae:
So... is there any reason to not use androidani? Any reason to stick with vanilla Open Recovery? (I'm on the fence and haven't tried androidani)
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] 3rdstring:
The Androidiani Open Recovery is a modded version of OC, It just adds additional functionality. No reason not to use it IMHO.
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] Mioze7Ae:
Thanks. I like it a lot.

[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] 3rdstring:
Try copying this file to the root directory of your sdcard.

If that doesn't work try using the Install option in Dexter's System Recovery app.
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] oddo1907:
you have another solutoin offer??
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] 3rdstring:
Neither of those worked?

The only other thing I know of is to try the original instructions at ModMyMobile

i can't enter androdiani menu. when i try the holding down wolume up, ientered normal boot menu
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] 3rdstring:
If you have standard OpenRecovery working, download Androindiani & unzip it on your pc. Copy the openrecovery folder from Androidiani over the openrecovery folder on your sdcard & copy the update.zip (as is, still zipped) to the root directory of the sdcard.

We are on the same boat...However, I cannot find a solution. I tried to boot without SD and SIM...still stuck at the big M.

I also tried to press volume up to get into Androidiani...only result in a ! screen...I am going to get start from SBF 2.1 again...
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] 3rdstring:
Your need your SD card in to boot into (Androidiani) OpenRecovery
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] n.a.:
I realized that after thinking I've copied all those files on the SD card...

I was trying to boot without an SD...to see whether I would boot...

I was trying khalpower's alternative black...failed miserably...don't know what I did wrong

Using the very same method to apply Khalpower's miui theme ...work flawlessly...
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] eSu.Matix:
Thanks for the post. Still I have problem.

Here is what I did so far:

1. I rooted my phone

2. Installed Open Recovery

3. Installed khalpowers V4 rom GalaxyXT version. (Didn't seperate my SD cart to fat32 and ext3. Just stock.)

4. Updated Open Recovery to 1.46, overwriting Open Recovery dir and openrecovery.zip with the 1.46 one. After going to Recovery it says that Open Recovery is version 1.46.

5. I installed last Androidiani on my phone. (overwrite open recovery dir and adding update.zip in the root menu).

6. Crated this folders on my SD card (I did not have SD readed so I did it from my phone via USB)

6.1 F:\OpenRecovery\theme\froyo\apps\All modded

6.2 F:\OpenRecovery\theme\froyo\bootanimation

6.3 F:\OpenRecovery\theme\froyo\fonts

6.4 F:\OpenRecovery\theme\froyo\framework

7. Put files in respective folders

7.1 Apps into All modded dir

7.2 framework-res.apk and service file into framework

7.3 rest left empty without creating folders "empty" (\froyo\framework\empty)

8. Running the steps in Open Recovery exaclly as you typed it.

9. Rebooting.

Problem... I got stuck in bootload menu. First I toth it was ok to wait it 10 min to fix things, but then I keep showing "M logo" for like 25 minutes and my battery was like 35% when I started so I toth it will be better to remove battery and reflash it. So I did it and now I'm with "clean" khalpowers V4 rom. Nothing installed except Astro manager.

So pleas tell me what am I doing wrong. And if possible make a list of the steps I need to do from Stock 2.1 Rom if I'm missing something.

Thanks in advance.
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] 3rdstring:
First the Folders should be

sdcard\OpenRecovery\theme\froyo\apps\

sdcard\OpenRecovery\theme\froyo\bootanimation

sdcard\OpenRecovery\theme\froyo\fonts

sdcard\OpenRecovery\theme\froyo\framework

Put all modded apks (or updated versions) in the apps folder

Note if you are replacing an app that Kahl already modded you may have to delete his modded version first.

Put a bootanimation.zip (if desired) in the bootanimation folder

Put Fonts (if desired) in the fonts folder

Put framework-res.apk & services.jar in the framework folder.

Note that the Framework files have to be compatable with Kahls ROM

I'm not sure what you're saying in 7.3??

After applying the teme you should wipe the dalvik-cache & the cache partition then reboot.
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] eSu.Matix:
First thank. I will try it taht way.

Second. Poor me. :(

How to figure out which app is modded and how to delete it.

Can you link me some Frameworks that work with Kahls ROM?

There is META-INF folder also and I don't know what to do with it.

I really feel that is so pro. I have Adroid phone for 2 weeks and I rooded it yesterday.

Thanks to all.?
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] eSu.Matix:
Yeah baby! I did it. Just needed right theme for my phone. Phanks alot!

But I still don't know what META-INF dir is for?

Im getting this error after attempting to install ptfmedic ec05 modem update from eb13 to ec05 that is said to work without having to odin. any suggestions?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Koadic:
Reading is fundemental :D

There is no EB13 to EC05 modem update yet, and the only one on his site specifically says it is for updating from the DI18 modem only...

Direct quotes from his site:

and
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Custodian:
Yea I have read that. And also came across the release of the script which is available to download from the bonsai website. Which says that you can use it instead of odin. Once loaded

the script specifically says its for eb13 .....
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Koadic:
Well, regardless of what it may say, to update the modem.bin through CWM, it requires a modem_delta.bin to update from one specific modem version to another. These are only available when there is an update.zip released by Samsung/Sprint (DI18 to DK28, DI18 to EB13, DI18 to EC05, etc). This is why it is only currently possible to use that file you downloaded to upgrade from DI18 specifically.

Until an EB13 to EC05 'update.zip' becomes available, there will be no CWM flashable file to upgrade your modem from EB13 to EC05. That being said, hopefully there should be one in the near future... or you can just use Odin and flash the EC05 modem instead of waiting.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techspy:
Running AOSP ish rom and applied the latest GPS fix (can't remember exactly which one).

So I have been running this rom for a long time, like since it was released. The only issue was the gps was still crappy. I did the hardware fix but that didn't help. About 2 months ago I saw a new fix which involved changing the info in the gps settings page. Anyway, gps is fast to lock (like 5 seconds) and is accurate now.

Around the same time I did the gps fix, I noticed I started having worse battery life. I hardly use my phone during the day and some days don't make a call or use gps, internet (other auto email notifications) etc but I notice my battery is down to 10-20% at the end of the day, approx 10 hours after taking it off charge. This is while at work with no wifi connected and no way the gps could get a lock.

Now if I am off, going from place to place in my car (connected to my bluetooth head unit) and when at home the phone sitting on a table, connected to wifi and with a reasonable ability to get a gps lock, my battery is still 80-90% charged at the end of the day.

What could be causing this? I have thought that when at work I have a worse signal and that the momentary loss of signal and the searching for a signal may cause this. How about the fact that it isn't connected to wifi but there are a couple available?

Thanks for any info.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robert00693:
I just got my EVO last Friday and after i rooted i noticed that sometimes not all the time... it takes a long time for it to get from splash screen to boot screen. Is it normal for it to last over 1 min in splash at times? Ive tried several roms and all do the same.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakeboys:
Nothing to worry about, unless it never boots up. Your ok, mind does this too at times
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Yea, boot times vary. Any time after you wipe cache/dalvik cache, the system takes a lot longer to boot up, due to the fact that it needs to rebuild the dalvik cache. Sometimes a specific kernel you're on can cause boot times to vary, in my experience. Also, I remember reading that deodexed roms take a little longer to boot (all the custom roms, for the most part, are deodexed. A stock rom is Odexed, and boots quicker) But, as the other guy said, as long as it boots up I wouldn't worry about how long it takes to boot up. You should be good.
[Galaxy Tab General] Earthbrain:
In the Xoom, I can transfer one single file that is bigger than 4 gb (actually 4.6 gb). It is a video file.

However, the galaxy tab would not let me do it to the internal storage. I have the T-mobile version.

Does the galaxy tab only allows you to transfer files no bigger than 4 gb, whether it is to the internal storage or the micro sd card?

Is there anyway to allow bigger file storage to the interal storage?
[Galaxy Tab General] Penrico:
I think you only can use a extern SD, in a NTFS format!
[Galaxy Tab General] DarkPal:
Yes there is. But that involves you changing the filing system on the Galaxy tab using a custom Kernel. From the properiety RFS filing system to EXT4 filing system. The latter has file size limit of 16 TiB so you should be in the clear.

So basically you need to ask yourself if you want to flash a custom kernel or not (head to development section if you do).

As for Videos. Galaxy tab doesn't play nice with videos larger than 2 GB even on External SD card.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
People still making this mistake and flashing non tmous roms, eh? Amazing.

No one has fixed this type of brick except with jtag or new mainboard. However, most people also never get the drivers to install either so I'm sure loads of people will be interested in your findings.

Personally I think its a red Herring, but good luck.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yousufshah:
i think also about Jtag now.but dont know the price of main board?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Macgnolia:
Go to eBay and check them out the sale all kinds of HD2 replacement parts on there. Also Google HTC HD2 JTAG and RICFBOX if you want to go that route.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
price of mainboards,,, not seen any for sale, but if you send it to a repair shop they charge around 120-150 dollars or there abouts.

Re:JTAG - what T-Mac meant to say was google riffbox, not ricfbox.riffbox isn't the only one, you can google 'ort jtag' too, though be warned the equipment for JTAG method will cost you as much as a new mainboard anyway, plus its not easy.

Go for JTAG if you

1 - are a technical wizard

OR

2 - you already have access to a JTAG box.

A riff box will cost around $150 new, and dont forget you need a jig to hold the mainboard when you connect it to the box (unless you are a master spot solderer), they run at around $20.

I had a simular issue a HTC inspire I refurbished after a cracked screen.

First question I'd like to ask if your volume down button not work properly?

For me it did'nt so i pulled out the volume board behind the button.

Take out the battery and make sure when the battery is put back in have the usb connected to the pc. if using windows go into computer management check if your device is read on the computer when trying these steps.

battery in power on without holding volume down.

HTC phone should be recognized if not next step.

Holding volume down Power on the device your pc should see something but the HTC will have an error in computer management. Look for the ADB driver which will fix this error but your still crashed so go back if you dont have it and download the new rom on the HTC website.

Check if your phone is actually holding a charge. need 30% battery life to flash the new rom.

Then run the rom it should say if theirs a usb error or your phone is detected.

If this doesnt help try another battery fully charged.

dont forget to check your rspl hspl stuff also DFT on this forums made a post how to do it and which versions you need for custom roms.

ADB universal driver for windows here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1379875 if it does'nt work you gonna have to look around.

This is a general aproach to helping you my only experience is with the HTC HD7S and the HTC Inspire.

[Epic 4G General] justin8338:
I currently have the Original Droid, which has been a great phone in terms of what you have been able to do to it and it's reliability. My question is; how do the owners of the Epic feel about their phone? Still happy with it? Like the roms that have come out for it? And since I haven't paid much attention to Sprint, up until now, any other phones down the line I should think about? My contract with Verizon is up in 3 months.
[Epic 4G General] iSaint:
Yes if you like a hardware keyboard then get the Epic it's a great phone you won't be dissapointed

If you like running the latest and Greatest software then the Nexus S will be out for sprint in like a month.

If you want a powerhouse of a phone then the Evo3D should be out by June following what they did with the original Evo

[Epic 4G General] qbking77:
If you get the epic, make sure you rigorously test the hardware keyboard within the first 30 days so you can return it if you get a phone that's physical keyboard drops keys.
[Epic 4G General] justin8338:
Thanks for the link!
[Epic 4G General] terinfire:
I never buy phones on contract, and swapped from an iPhone to a Moto Droid in May of last year. Loved the Android platform, since I'm a programmer and super-user -- not a dumb user, the way the iPhone continued to fail.

I switched to the Epic 4G around October of that year (bought off-contract as well, ESN was clear, but ended up still being attached to an account... got scammed and ported it to Cricket myself). Love the keyboard. Love the screen. Not a bad phone at all. I wouldn't buy it on contract, though, since the new phones are coming out. But in my mind, the Epic is a definite upgrade from the Droid, albeit still not quite as flexible as the original Droid was in terms of development and ROMs (was on Sapphire with Droid -- tried pretty much all the different ROMs for Epic and they're nice, but not as nice as something mostly AOSP, i.e. CM7 or Sapphire). Waiting patiently for Epic's CM7 to be mostly stable so I can try to ROM with that -- having very high hopes for it.

So in a nutshell, yes, great phone. But, the only issue is that the phone will be outdated rather quick, though I don't think we're going to see another contender with a decent keyboard for a while with dual-core processors, etc (re: I'm guessing a year). No comment on Sprint service, but double check with reviews in your area to see how coverage, etc, is before making the jump.
[Epic 4G General] cpcormier3:
I would stay away from this phone if I were you. The roms I've tried are all pretty good, but never perfect for me. I can tell you the current stock rom is still sub par. I would get the HTC if I you. I know people on here will tell you it's not a good of a phone, but I can tell you it works a hell of a lot better. If you really want this phone I will trade you mine + I'll give you $100 if you get the evo and trade me. I'm trying to sell mine now! my phones of on really good shape, no damage to it at all. If you're interested or anyone else, pm me! But to be honest this phone is not really worth it.
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
DON'T LISTEN TO THIS GUY. His intelligence is showing with trying to trade you for a lesser quality phone. The evo shift does not have an amoled screen or the gpu power the epic has. This phone is amazing and will be amazing for atleast 2 years. This phone will hold up to the dual cores of this year hands down. I've been with sprint for 9 years and they keep getting better. Development could be stronger but we have gotten EVERYTHING WE NEEDED FROM OUR DEVS HERE. CM7 is in progress and there is a stable alpha.
[Epic 4G General] ratchetjaw:
It's a great phone now. Got mine for the second time on friday and updated that evening ota. I also have a Evo and Evo shift and had the dual core Atrix(hype at this point imho).

The Epic is my favorite although i do prefer the keyboard on the Evo shift cause its smaller which is odd but rue
[Epic 4G General] cpcormier3:
Well maybe you like having to spend a million hours to get the phone to work, but for me, not really. It's almost a full time job trying to get this thing to work right! I agree the hardware is great, but not worth the fight to make it work right. I've spent hours flashing this thing since the new update and I will tell you I still have problems with this phone. If you would like me to list all the problems with my phone I would be happy to do so!
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
YOU have issues, the vast majority of people are capable of flashing a ROM correctly and troubleshooting any problems they might have, don't dissuade someone from purchasing a phone they want because YOU have problems using it correctly.
[Epic 4G General] jdelano:
I really do like my phone and the ROMs are smoke'n.

They have been having a bit of an issue releasing Froyo that doesn't have some level of suckage.

We're expecting a 3rd try this week.

What balances that are the AWESOME devs for it; they popout an updated ROM with the latest update in no time at all.

Everyone is spot on in regards to hardware keyboard, I find myself (I HAD to have a real keyboard) actually using the swype keyboard way more than the physical one. Go figure.

Some GPS issues; though each update makes it a bit better.

There is a reason that this phone is the #1 selling PDA phone.

Having all said that, in a few months there will be some really powerful stuff that will just blow the doors off anything currently available. If I were in your position. I'd go for a multi-processor phone.

Good luck
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
I say get an evo.

Theres a whole lot more going on with the evo development that its a much more flexible phone.

Our phone has a lot of potential, but with a fracyion of evo/droid devs its harder for the epic to get there.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
Check out the hardware keyboard fix from mkasick - it's implemented in SRF 1.1.0 and its accompanying kernel, Twilight Zone 1.1.0. If you don't want to leave your current ROM, give Twilight Zone a try. The fix is an adjustable one - so you can set the value as low as you want. That should completely eliminate any issues you're having. :)
[Epic 4G General] cpcormier3:
These forums speak for them selves. You don't see half the problems in the HTC forums. Also if you have BOTH phones you would know how many more problems there are on this phone. I would wait for the nexus s if you want a sammy. I would not choose this phone again if I had it to do over.
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
I do have both, and have had few issued with either, I made the choice to stick with the Epic as my daily driver because its a much nice phone hardware wise and significantly lighter. I find it difficult to believe you would have any of the issues you're having if you properly flashed it.
