Bump. I am having the same problem. Anyone know what's going on?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biglipps66:
I cant claim to be one of the gods but if you need the phone operation ASAP you could just flash a fresh download of a ROM. Pop out the SD card and load it on a PC, copy ROM to it and boot up into recovery.

I always backup my data from apps incase I get this same problem. You can just reflash a new one and load up the data and be done with it. Sucks though I know Ive had this happen before too. Thats the best I have for you guys sorry :o
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProTekk:
Before jumping to any conclusions try this.

Get a ROM flashed/boot up normally.

Install ROM Manager.

Open ROM Manager.

Menu > Settings > check "Erase Recovery" > back > Flash ClockworkMod Recovery.

Boot into recovery and see if the issue persists.

Hi All,

So, I'm loving J's CM7 ROM, but noticed that the email colour picker disappeared from the Email app - so while I'm not colour blind, aubergine, puce, teal and beige just get kinda confusing...

Anyway, for those wanting the ability to pick colours again, here's some help:

Download the attached email.apk

Dump it somewhere on you SD card

Using Root Explorer (or like) and navigate to /system/app/

Mount as R/W

Change the existing email.apk to _email.apk (incase the new one doesn't work, so you can revert back)

Drop the downloaded copy of email.apk into /system/app/

Change permissions to rw-r--r--

Reboot

Enjoy!

And there you have it... Now you can choose puce because YOU want to...

i'm excited about it.... i loved most all of the Sidekicks, they had the best keyboards, the OS was stable and tight, awesome IM clients. and if i'm not mistaken, it was the first device to have OTA updates and a download catalog. Sidekicks did end up becoming big with teenagers, but one of the initial target markets was the deaf community, giving them as many non-audio means of commincation as possible, hence it's reputation as an awesome messaging device. hell yeah, lol... I'm interested to see how the design works with the Android OS.

Though no guarantees, maybe if we 3 collaberate we can get a working theme. If you guys wanna start poking around while im at work...... for porting the lockscreen its in androidpolicy.jar and for the UI you can decompile (not just extract) framework-res.apk and tw-framework.apk and poke around the drawable xml files and drawable images

Yea at that price it isn't a big deal. Sucks it didn't come with one. I hate products that brag about these features but can't work out of the box because you need X-Product and Y-Product.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] pychobj2001:
The only restriction i think is when you play a video, it will only show on the HDTV and not the device, other then that it's full mirroring. what i want to know is if the youtube player can tap into the 1080p feeds on youtube....?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pychobj2001:
Monoprice FTW

I purchased from monoprice 3 things so that i can watch w/ other people existing hdmi cables, my own hdmi cables and 2 new cables i bought,

3872 / 1.5ft 28AWG High Speed HDMI Cable w/Ferrite Cores - Black $1.84

4032 / 25ft 24AWG CL2 Standard Speed HDMI Cable - White $18.24

7703 / Micro-HDMI Male (Type D) to HDMI Female (Type A) Port Saver Adapter $3.94

I plan on using it to watch youtube and games and web surfing from my couch so i got a 25 foot one to run along the wall, and the 1.5 i can take it with me in my coat jacket, friends house / hotels / vacation to relatives, everybodys got hdmi but not an easy solution to get avi movies on the big screen..w/ my phone we do! I love it! and I watch tons of youtube so now i can have a big screen to watch it and a couch...not my computer chair....hurray! ooo and music videos on my tv again...surround sound put into use for music once again...i have an HTPC but i can't read it, and when i turn the DPI up it gets cramped...so i'm loving the HDMI out and the Port Saver will make things alot easier and make the cables cheaper so everybody get the port saver..then the cables.......okay long comment..over....

Monoprice is cheaper.

10ft Micro HDMI at monoprice for $5

Spend an extra 80cents for 15ft hdmi cable.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theqwert:
Can't unfortunately. HDMI is digital only (unlike DVI which carries both digital and analog signals), so the only way to output to an analog connection like VGA is with a converter, which are $90 and up. :(

well did get my 32gig card but unfortunately im an idiot so i also have a mini hdmi cable siting here (will use for computer video card) longer then the one i had. reordered a micro one now. wasnt thinking when i ordered but reading this thread i went and checked before i even got this and saw i messed up. but will have to wait until mon or tues to try out the hdmi now :( . but the dlna /media share stuff is pretty cool i have a LG tv so that may be an advantage with it working so well not sure. at least i knew before i opened the package that i had ordered the wrong thing so i wasn't disappointed :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] frigidazzi:
Got one of these cables! Thanks!

I have a question though. How do you people hook up the hdmi cable to the TV and stereo? Is there a way to do that? My TV sound is very sub par compared to the stereo :). Thanks for any input.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KiNG OMaR:
Is the mirroring supposed to start automatically? I can't seem to get it to work :mad: Watch the solution be simple and make me look stupid :rolleyes:

EDIT: lol, was on the wrong input channel
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
well depends

some steros have hdmi in and out so if yours does you put phone to stero than stero to tv.

some tv's (lg lv5500 does) have a optical out so if you put hdmi into tv you can shoot the audio out to your stereo.

if neither of these fits your set up im not sure. but your tv should at least have some type of audio out to your stero that should work.

Ordered from monoprice and ordered the correct one. But.... its not working, anyone having trouble with it as well? Anybody have any solutions?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] erikiksaz:
Well, I bought a monoprice hdmi plug (very recent).

Now, I've had a huge problem with my phone, but I don't know if it's due to the HDMI plug or not, so please read the whole post before you make any hasty decisions.

My phone was always a little bit warmer than I would have liked. The top half would get warm when just surfing the internet, even when unplugged from the wall. And sometimes if I managed to do something weird in android, like exit out of the speedtest.net app while it was busy running, my phone would somehow drop its battery level by a massive amount, start heating up, and then shut down.

So, that sets the story at least. So when I first received my monoprice HDMI cable, it plugged it in, and everything worked....for about 10 seconds. I tried to rotate my phone sideways to see if the view would go to landscape, and the tv signal died. Then the phone gave me a low battery warning (even though it was previously at around 60-80%), overheated like hell, and shut down. I let it cool down, turned it on, charged it back up, everything was fine.

I tried again a few days later, and the same thing, but the phone lasted in mirroring mode for over a minute before throwing the low battery. Except this time the phone got REALLY hot. Now my phone is constantly in a hot state, even when the damn thing is off :p Needless to say it'll get exchanged soon.

But I'm just sharing my experience with you all. I am not sure if it's related to the cable, it just might help you make your decision. I won't know for sure until I test out my cable on another device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mac33:
I've had this experience with the cord from monoprice. Only mine shut off & when I turned it by on. I had the red low battery icon.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theqwert:
