Hy,

I turn to you, because I want to install a Windows Mobile 6.1 on my Nokia 5230.

But I can not find a ROM to install, and I don't know, if it'd work, so could you make me a WM 6.1 ROM to my Nokia 5230?

Optional features:

Dual-boot with Symbian

Samsung i900 Omnia ROM
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asianftw:
With flash 10.2, after 5 mins into playing flash video(HD or no HD), the streak will reboots itself and I have to take out the battery for it to boot.

Does it happen to anyone else? I tried it on att 2.2, stock 2.2 (318 &345), streakdroid 1.9

And at the rare time it doesn't crash/reboot. HD flash videos are also very slow and jerky to a point it's unwatchable....

Take the HD videos at megavideo for example
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asianftw:
not looking for solution, just wondering if it's the same for everyone else??

EDIT: to answer my own question without bumping.

Got a replacement streak, same jerky HD flash performance but doesn't restart by itself now, so it's definitely hardware problem. And this is on DJ steve's 1.9 with perfmod
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matty Matt:
So basically i wanna remove Sense and Widgets from InsertCoin, but keep the functions that make Sense great like the Camera, Facebook Sense...Oh and also the Lockscreen to the Vanilla one. I've seen plenty of scripts written for other phones and none seem to work for Desire sadly :( Any halp?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
Open the zip before flashing (don't extract it) and remove all the widgets and other stuff you don't want. Either in system/app or data/app. The flash it with signature verification turned off.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kluzik1:
install the rom and if you are s-off install different launcher like adw or launcher pro. Go to root explorer and delete folder called rosie :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matty Matt:
Oh damn, i suppose i should have read this
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eil:
But how do I remove the Sense incoming call screen???
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Plug phone into ADB (if you have it on your PC) or use astro file manager go to system/apps and delete htclockscreen.apk then unplug the phone and restart it will go back to the original AOSP lockscreen.

And id suggest using ADW Launcher EX. then you get all the HTC apps with the AOSP look :)

EDIT: Also you need to get another alarm clock because deleting the htclockscreen.apk file means you cant turn off your alarm ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matty Matt:
iDidit!

Okay, so following the post that was located in baadnewz's website (which was linked from the same page as the ROM LOL) i have removed all the stuff i want, such as the Launcher, all Sense widgets and most apps except for Friend Stream (for facebook photo syncing) Gmail, Stocks and a few other things but added ADW Launcher 1.3.6 (not for constant use, just so the ROM would have something to go to after setting up as i am using ADW EX). After doing so i gave myself 10-20~MB in extra space! resulting from a 188MB Installation zip to 170~MB! I have to say, the smoothest DHD ROM I've ever used! I think i might just PM baadnewz himself to see what he thinks of my 'work'

I will edit this post to add photos...I may post a DL link depending on how many people 'thank' this post ;)

i have dropbox and it works, but how do i open ebooks in the nook app? i dont know how to access the downloaded files from dropbox
[Nook Color General] tablo:
Download the dropbox app from market. Then open up dropbox from your nook and download the pdf. You can open the pdf document with an app from adobe or an app like ezpdfreader.
[Nook Color General] ford12acing:
well i put epub (standard nook format) in my dropbox acct. i can download the file but id ont know where it downloads to nor can i open them in the nook app.
[Nook Color General] miniaturepeddler:
If you are talking shipment you might use Aldiko app to read them. It provid so the ability to import and read your downloaded ebooks into its library from the dropbox directory.

You get the files there by tapping them in the dropbox, which downloads them to York tablet locally
[Nook Color General] miniaturepeddler:
It downloads to. /dropbox
[Nook Color General] numus:
You have to move documents to /sdcard/Nook/MyDocuments/ in order to sideload into the nook application. Took me forever yesterday to find the documentation on that. Furthermore, can't figure out how to get cover art to display.
[Nook Color General] vegainey:
Dropbox downloads are stored in a folder on the SD Card. You can get to it by going to Menu -> Library, My Files (tab), Select Memory Card, then find the dropbox folder.
[Nook Color General] Mikey:
My dropbox folder gets stored in:

/mnt/emmc/dropbox. *Not on my sdcard*

Making dropbox unusable for me
[Nook Color General] anthesca:
use calibre to download metadata and transfer. very simple and easy. dropbox is OK if you don't want wires. but calibre brings all of the metadata and organization.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] rasheid2kx:
your suppost search before posting

Anyways, you might need to update your radio, assuming you know how to flash your phone already. use the attached file. I take no responsibility for you bricking your phone, so please flash at your own risk!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] -Rif-:
yeah, it is because radio firmware you have is not suitable for your rom.

another version of radio firmware also can be found on this thread :

That new radio perfectly matches my phone, no more trouble. Cheers
[HTC Inspire 4G] cpbeats:
Check this out. Before I got my inspire I used a captivate and iPhone 4 and usually used about 3-4 gb of data per month. So I go buy the inspire off contract and I swear in the 2 months of use I went from 3-4 gb, to 6 gb, to a whopping 12 gb last month. So far this month with 19 days left in billing cycle I've used 7.7 gb. I've swapped the phone. I rarely tether, maybe 1 a week for 10 minutes. I don't have Pandora installed either. ATT said not to worry about it since I have unlimited data and they knew that I wasn't tethering but I'm just curious as to what's going on? I drive all day and mainly surf the web on the phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] misterbbq:
maybe something you installed? i don't tether, but i pandora and mspot and use around 500 meg per month. i tend to stay on wireless at work and at home and only 'stream' when in the car or at other people's homes.
[HTC Inspire 4G] hiltun:
What apps did you have installed?

I've used a 1gb this month (vs <500mb) but I've swapped phones (from Atrix to Inspire) so I'm not sure if some of it was downloading all the apps twice. But I did watch some music videos in HD so that could be more likely. On the Vevo app I think.
[HTC Inspire 4G] acPIZZA:
Holy ****. I never even come close to my 2 gb limit and i run a lot while streaming my itunes lib to ny phone with audiogalaxy.

I'm always on WiFi at mmy house and my girlfriends house
[HTC Inspire 4G] TheBassman369:
You could download OS monitor and see which apps are running in the background. Background apps could be causing your data usage to go up.

MIUI Inspire 4G
[HTC Inspire 4G] cpbeats:
Only apps I have installed are angry birds and angry birds Rio, my ATT wireless, and that's pretty much it. I have no idea. I'm lost.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sheanzyy:
Unfortunately, in the end, it's a smartphone. A large amount of data is going to be consumed, but there are many applications that can limit the amount of data you use by setting a cap.

Just checked my AT&T bill prior to reading this thread and I have a 4.7 GB total. Ridiculous, I know. I don't stream mad YouTube videos, mainly just push e-mail and read a large amount of news feeds. Thank god for my old unlimited iPhone plan :cool:
[HTC Inspire 4G] netnerd:
are you using Moxier mail v2.8.2? i notice the data up/down arrows keep flashing non-stop 24/7! after i upgraded to v2.9.2, it fixed the problem.
[HTC Inspire 4G] TheBassman369:
Are you using a Sense ROM?

MIUI Inspire 4G
[HTC Inspire 4G] cpbeats:
I just started using roms less than a month ago. This phone is just a data hog. To netnerd, my H+ actually doesn't stream unless I'm on the net. As long as ATT doesn't give me a problem I'm cool. They did offer to try a different phone and see if it has any affect.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Aridon:
Sense social networking can use a ton of data.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jmollabi:
do u really need other peoples input on how mych data u use..check your bilk
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
The HTC sense account can use a massive amount of data. Remove it if you don't mind losing the find your phone feature.
[HTC Inspire 4G] SmittyRN:
I remember when they first started talking about capping data plans last year, I checked my data usage on my iPhone 3GS and I was pushing 2gb a month; figured out that I was using most of it by streaming Pandora over my 3g about 5 nights a week while I slept. I've since switched over to Wifi at night. Just checked my Inspire usage, and I've used 384MB with 4 days left in my billing cycle. I haven't been streaming much music or video over it, though.

I got the Inspire the weekend it came out. Waited about a month before I rooted the thing, since then I've been flashing left and right; usually I'm working with my Wifi at home, though.

I had issues after I tried my first custom ROM with battery drain issues; once it even cooked itself dead sitting in my pocket over about 2 hours. I think it was trying to auto-sync while I was in an area with just enough signal to show a connection, but not enough to move data, I was showing like 1/2 a bar signal. I bet it spent the battery trying to auto-sync the entire time. Makes me wonder how much data is being moved with Friendstream and other apps when it has all the signal it wants.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cpbeats:
What the hell are you talking about? I asked why the phone uses so much data. I know hoe much data I used, check the first post.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyne2199:
If this is your first HTC smartphone, be very careful of how you setup your HTC Sync settings. From your phone, select Menu -> Settings -> Accounts & Sync. Check to see if your "Auto-sync" checkbox is checked or unchecked. If it's checked, you may want to uncheck that. HTC Sync can chew through data if you let it. Also, just make sure you don't have email/apps set to push (like email) that you don't mind manually updating. When web browsing, setup your browser to display Flash on-demand, rather than load content that you don't really need. Check your GPS settings, also.
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
IM almost at 4gb and I am supposed to only get 2gb haha
[HTC Inspire 4G] cpbeats:
I'll check that out. What about background data?
[HTC Inspire 4G] cpbeats:
I'm telling ya, this thing eats data for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyne2199:
You can uncheck that box if you want, but if you open up the Android Market, the Market app will prompt you to enable background data in order to continue, even if you're on Wi-Fi. You can always check the box to allow the data, do your downloading/updating of apps, then close the Market and uncheck the box again if you want.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
yeah, id recommend giving your settings another look for syncing (htc sense and facebook/twitter are set to once a day for me, google reader is shut off). also, use wifi wehn you can.

to figure out what's eating my data, i use an app called Traffic stats from teh market. it breaks it down by appa dn tells me how much data is being used. you can reset it every month and you can have it show only wireless data (not wifi).
[HTC Inspire 4G] hiltun:
Is it called Traffic Monitor Widget?

I just download it and it looks great. Has a speed test in it and some other cool things.
[HTC Inspire 4G] hiltun:
Why can't I delete this double post?
[HTC Inspire 4G] inthewoods:
No, this phone is not a data hog! :rolleyes:

My phone has been on a custom ROM most of this month and have only used 1.2 gb of data.

My wife's Inspire is 100% stock and she hasn't even broken 30 mb :eek:
[HTC Inspire 4G] OnlyFair:
It's all those sense related apps.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
It's not a widget, its a proper app. There's a free and a pro version of it. The app thumbnail is just like a little Android robot with a ruler vertically next to it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cpbeats:
My phone does that in 2 days. 30mb, it does that in a matter of minutes. I don't care though, it's AT&T's problem, not mine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jc2470:
Several reasons, htc sense, auto syncing accounts mine is syncing 6 different things, u can change how often it syncs, and u dont need sense although is handy. And as far as comparison to iphone, u have flash now which loads more data on desktop version of websites.
[HTC Inspire 4G] texas-saluki:
data explosion

All,

I just opened my wifes bill and she went over 8G last month (partial month) and just looked online and is is over 10G and has about 2 weeks left in the billing cycle. I convinced her to get this as a new work phone and has to expense it. She is about to go nuts as she doubts it will be approved.

Has anyone figured out if it is the HTC stuff? I have not loaded any custom ROMs yet as I was waiting for them to stabilize a bit... but this is crazy. I rarely hit 2G on my N1 and I stream Pandora all the time... she only does FB and email

I have a call into AT&T but they were not able to tell me much and are going to "look into it" and call back tomorrow.

Now as a side note this thing has been sucking battery and it never occurred to me that it was using a bunch of data. I just pulled the battery to reset the device as maybe something was stuck on, I am clueless with this amount of data

I just loaded this app https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mapeapps.networkcounter to track some of the usage, someone else mentioned another one that has a widget but I was not able to find it.

Any suggestions would be helpful:confused:

Thanks

Come on guys. we all know what the culprit is. Do i really have to say it? Really?

ok, fine. it's porn. Alright!?. PORN.

cut back on all of the video feeds before bedtime and you'll be just fine. The phone is NOT to blame. Use WIFI when you're at home and stop your *****ing.

[HTC Inspire 4G] P00t:
damn...i have only 200mb data plan. LOL

when my phone is off, its still using the internet.

I barely get to 200mb, i use the WIFI most of the time.

some applications refreshes every minute or so, which takes up your data.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GalaxySAndroid:
I have tried JT's kernel from source and imnuts kernel, and with both i am having issues that i was not when using either adrynalyns eb10/16 (dont remember which)

Issues: when people call me and phone is asleep pone does not ring, nor does it show up that they even called me. It almost seems like it depends how long phone has been asleep.

when phone is asleep and i receive emails or SMS, i do not get them until i wake phone and unlock.

Tried data wipe, and now going back to one of adrynalyns eb10/16 kernels to see if it fixes it. If not maybe i will try re-flashing SC again?

Suggestions? Or anyone else having this problem

Start over with EB16 tar package than install SC 2.92
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scarfman4:
I didn't think there was an EB16 tar?

I'm not certain if this is specific to this kernel or not but I have problems with my phone dropping my data connection down from two bars to one then zero bars every time I access data. Then when I let it go back to dormant then access data again it briefly shows two bars then lowers to zero again. The only way I can fix it is to reboot the phone, then signal stays strong at 2 bars. This usually happens if I have not rebooted my phone in over 24 or maybe 36 hours. When this symptom happens my voice signals (the bars that show when data is off or dormant) stays strong at 3 bars.

I am going to roll back to EB16 to see if this problem persists on it.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
The short answer is "a lot" ;)

Obviously, that's not helpful, so here's what I remember off the top of my head that should be helpful:

Framework-res.apk/res/values/styles.xml:

<style name="Widget.ListView.WithBackground" parent="@style/Trans">
<item name="scrollbars">none</item>
<item name="layout_marginTop">0.0px</item>
<item name="listBackground">@drawable/list_selector_background_normal</item>
</style>

The modification is at the end of the first line [parent="@style/Trans"]

Also you need to add the following style somewhere. At the end is fine:

<style name="Trans" parent="@style/Theme">
<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/tinted_trans_bg</item>
<item name="textColorHighlight">#8000aeff</item>
<item name="textColorHint">?textColorHintInverse</item>
<item name="textColorLink">#ff0000ee</item>
<item name="windowShowWallpaper">true</item>
<item name="colorBackgroundCacheHint">#00000000</item>
</style>

In addition, you need to put the attached tinted_trans_bg.9.png to the /drawables/ directory.

This is for the Settings.apk background as well as a few other small apks.

twframework-res.apk/res/values/styles.xml:

<style name="TwTheme" parent="@style/TwTrans">

<item name="twSoftkeyItemStyle">@style/TwSoftkeyItemStyle</item>
<item name="twProgressBarStyle">@style/TwProgressBar</item>
<item name="twSeekBarStyle">@style/TwSeekBar</item>
</style>

The modification is at the end of the first line [parent="@style/TwTrans"]

Also you need to add the following style somewhere. At the end is fine:

<style name="TwTrans" parent="@android:style/Theme">
<item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/tinted_trans_bg</item>
<item name="android:textColorHighlight">#8000aeff</item>
<item name="android:textColorHint">?android:textColorHintInverse</item>
<item name="android:textColorLink">#ff0000ee</item>
<item name="android:windowShowWallpaper">true</item>
<item name="android:colorBackgroundCacheHint">#00000000</item>
</style>

In addition, you need to put the attached tinted_trans_bg.9.png to the /drawables/ directory.

This is for the MMS.apk, and I think Contacts, but can't remember for sure :D

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cincy1020:
Hi:

Since the AT&T Froyo update, I am having odd music playlist problems. I am using the stock media player., and all music is stored to external SD card.

When in the song list, to add a song to a playlist, I hold down on the song, and select add to playlist, and then choose the playlist. It does not ever show up in the playlist I chose. This is the same way I have always added songs, only now it won't work.

If I go to the appropriate playlist, and remove songs via the menu button, and then add a few songs, the changes work properly, EXCEPT after the phone is turned off then back on, the changes disappear, and the original songs that were removed are still there, and the songs that were added are NOT there.

Any thoughts on what is causing this? I am desperate to fixe this. Every time I want to listen to music I have to go in and add/delete songs, which as you can imagine is hugely inconvenient.

Any thoughts will really be appreciated.

Thanks!!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tysj:
I actually had this problem on a few roms I was using. A reinstallation of the music app seemed to fix it. In this case, a reset may help unless you want to root and remove/add the app back in the system/app folder.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cincy1020:
Hi:

Thanks so much for your suggestion.

I am already rooted. Do I actually go into the system folder and remove it, paste it somewhere else, and add the same app, or do I need to find a file of the music app online to replace the original?

Thanks again!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tysj:
That's about it. I'd cut and paste it somewhere else just in case then move the new on in. You can probably grab the app from a lot of ROMs that use the Samsung Music Player or just search for it somewhere. It should be called MusicPlayer.apk
