[Nook Color General] mrant:
I tried restarting as well and the issue was still there. It only went away when I disconnected the charger.

--MrAnt--
[Nook Color General] Canuckx:
I've had my nook for two weeks now and have noticed the same thing - weird touchscreen behaviour that goes away the instant I unplug the charger (usb).
[Nook Color General] troyy0206:
I have seen this behavior on phones when I attempted to use cheap chargers. I suspect the voltage was not within tolerance and it caused the problem, based on the testing that I did. If you are using the original charger that came with the unit, you should try to obtain a new one.
[Nook Color General] adunofaiur:
I get this issue if my screen gets even slightly smudged. I think that once the official App Store comes I'm going back to stock and getting a warranty replacement.
[Nook Color General] jerrykur:
This is a well known issue with many of the units.
[Nook Color General] migrax:
I had the same issue with my first unit, I have had it replaced twice, (not because of this, but another issue). My current unit works fine connected to power. However It came with stock 1.0.1 and that may have fixed the issue in software.

[Nook Color General] deadbot1:
The issue is most likey wit the stock charger wall wart. I have noticed that mine makes some VERY loud buzzing when plugged in and no cable plugged in. Prolly cheap caps in there. Poor filtering at best. This electrical noise is likely causing false capacitance spikes in the screen.

Almost tempted to order a spare and tear it down...put some electronics skills to use and build a better mousetrap as it were.
[Nook Color General] charm1718:
This happens to me as well. I have used family members and girlfriend Nook charger and it still happens. It doesn't affect 1 out of the 4 I bought.
[Nook Color General] mrant:
So I figured out what was causing the problem. I was trying to use the charger plugged into a DC-AC inverter. The problem went away as soon as I plugged it into an AC outlet. I guess the Nook charger is sensitive to non-pure sine waves.

deadbot1, I noticed my charger also buzzes rather loudly when plugged in but not charging. I guess the chargers are not the greatest quality, based on the other comments here.

--MrAnt--
[Nook Color General] deadbot1:
Yep, definitely low quality under the case. I've noticed that mine gets flat out HOT if charging from a low battery condition as well.

Once I'm back to work(stupid snow in SD) and have more free cash coming in I am going to order a spare and reverse engineer it with the goal of building a better replacement. I'll be posting my specs and designs as I go. Gotta see whats in there first...but I'm pretty sure that my new one will be based around a TS7805CZlinear regulator and a picaxe uMC if it needs brains.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eYeMbRoKe:
Hey all,

Im in the military and just got back stateside. Before I left i rooted my phone. Im currently on a DK28 build with Epic Experience Rom.

My question is now my phone prompts me 50 times a day to download this new EC05 build OTA from sprint. Is it safe to accept the update currently rooted or do i need to go back to something else?

Apologize is this has been covered. I havent been able to keep up with the scene.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epic4GEE:
Not safe to accept EC05 as far as I'm aware you must be on BONE stock DI18 or EB13 to update to EC05.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eYeMbRoKe:
Thats what i was thinking.......thanks for the info
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kout:
hey !

so here's the deal, I like to have my phone in French (my native language)

but I would also like to have certain apps in English (youtube or twitter for example) I know that certain apps already offer to do this, by going in the settings (Plume comes to mind)

so any idea, on how to make a specific app see the system language as whatever I choose ? using rootexplorer, and editing a specific string ? anybody has a lead ?

I already did some googling, but didn't really find anything solid ....

thanks !:)

Just saw that KB5 is available via Kies Mini.

Looks like it's just a Froyo update. Anyone have any information about it?

Will I lose root if I updated from rooted KA6? If so, can I re-root with superoneclick?

if that is really an htc commercial it looks rather fake but if it sports 16 mp that is a snapdragon 8x60 I think if it has a keyboard I may be sold
[Windows Phone 7 General] sure haven't:
The first comment said it best on the YouTube page for that video: we don't need more mp, what we need are better lenses. Although I don't think with our current tech we can fit good enough ones into cell phones.

where is it on the htc youtube page

where is the htc logo

why does the video look so low quality
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ROBINGAZI:
Hi

I'm trying to get app2ext working on official Froyo on my MM but every time I create sd-ext directories via root explorer or AOR the directories disappear after reboot.

Do I need to change the chmod of the directories? If yes to what number?

Is there a security system in Froyo that prevents creation of such directories?

I am kinda at a loss here.

thanks in advance for your help.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sileshnair:
Which script are you using?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ROBINGAZI:
I was planning to use the script from CM7. Thats why I wanted to create the sd-ext directory. I did try your guide, the one written in *.docx, but it did not work. The modules did not load...however, I did create /system/sd directory which is still there.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sileshnair:
Well, I have got it working with all stock froyo roms that I have used. Have you installed busybox? Sometimes it takes more than one reboot to work.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ROBINGAZI:
I have tried that.

I used all three zip files mentioned in this thread:

//xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10934421&postcount=37

but they did not work.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sileshnair:
You only need to use the full version. Anyway, I don't know abt the sd-ext problem.
[LG Optimus 2x] ravn1:
Hi.

In short: How can I avoid that pesky "not available on mobile" message and watch Youtube videos just like on my computer??

Long version:

I sometimes run into the "Not Available on Mobile" message when trying to run a Youtube link from facebook/twitter and such. Example: youtube.com/watch?v=jRKsxAsQgAk (as of 16/4/2011 2pm cest)

First try:

On my Desire and Desire HD they had an option in the Internet Settings to disable "mobile view" of websites, and as such I could just open youtube videos in the browser instead of the Youtube App. On LG there is no such menu option available there?

Second try:

Found another way to disable mobile view, in the HiddenMenu(call '1809#*990#' , credits to Paul for this) where you can switch or change the User Agent string yourself.

First I tried the Mozilla one in the list, but then websites tells me that my browser is outdated. Then I copied the one from my PC (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; da; rv:1.9.2.16) Gecko/20110319 Firefox/3.6.16) and used that instead.

Now youtube doesnt whine about my browser being updated, instead it tells me that I need Flash player 10. I checked in Android Market and I have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (10.2).

Now I don't know what to try next. Is it possible in the UAString to tell the browser that I do have Flash 10? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] jsapp:
Not sure about the app or firefox, but the xscope browser has user agent in settings. Whenever I have that issue I just change that and can watch the video. Never had an issue with it not finding flash.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jobiza:
Reloading seems to be because of Darkyy's using his ram tweak. You could just download samsung galaxy tuner from market and change lowmem settings to Samsung (new) or (old) :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jobiza:
Download Galaxy tuner from Market and select Memory Manager, then scroll down and press "Load", then select the Samsung (new) :) And of course Apply and tick on boot. Hope this works.

[Droid 2 Global General] leobg:
You should really not rely on machine translation when posting...

You could try using TurboSIM to get phone unlocked if you are failing to unlock it with code purchase from internet. TurboSIM, however, is not very reliable as it seems receiving calls with turbo sim is a hit or miss, some people have troubles with losing service after a while, all depends on your operator. However, until somebody comes with a better way to unlock D2G, there is no other alternative as of now. TurboSIM's are cheap and available on ebay generally.

On chinese forums there is a word they can unlock D2g, but my Chinese is good as far as Google translation can go... ;)
[Droid 2 Global General] sharkonland:
Yeah, Ive been looking for a software unlock myself, but it seems there is none yet. Like the post above me said, use turboSIM. I myself am going to be getting one and giving it a try.

My one concern is, does the turbosim actually stick to the other sim, or is the sim just put "on top" of the turboSIM meaning there is nothing holding them together. Reason is, while some phone have sim slots faced down, the sim slot on the droid 2 global requires a sim to be slided into place. Maybe both dont get aligned properly which causes unstable signal.
[Droid 2 Global General] haroldz123:
do u get a refund after the code failed?

[Bravo General] GeNiO426:
I was excited that I received a message to update my firmware to 2.2 Froyo, but when I tried doing so I kept getting errors at the installation screen. It would download then go to the installation screen and give me an error.

I'm not sure if I bricked the phone without knowing or something, but I get the following error message when trying to upgrade:

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

I have no idea what that is/where it is. I checked my SD Card, but I didn't see anything like that there. I'm guessing I'm missing that folder/file, but I don't know where it would have went or if I can get it back.

I've tried to do the update both through my Bravo and downloading a ZIP file and trying to do it through the Recovery screen. I tried everything Motorola suggests on their website as well as searched Google a lot, but came up with nothing.

I should add that even when I click "applysdcard:update.zip" it gives me a few errors and aborts the installation.

I'm just wondering if there's any way to fix this so I can upgrade my firmware?

Thanks to anyone that can help.

I'm sure there is a solution, but just forget it and install 2.2 SBF.
[Bravo General] GeNiO426:
Yes, I used Root Explorer. I'm guessing by MCFarmfresh's post that there issome sort of original build for the phone? I've looked everywhere for hours all night last night before resorting to asking somewhere, but I couldn't find anything and the "solutions" I've seen all did not work. I kept getting the same errors.

Thank you for replying. If you can help, it'll be very much appreciated.

I have a rooted Bravo and I deleted some of the bloatware, and I received the Froyo update and everytime I download and the system resets I get an error and the update stops. Selecting from memory card doesnt work for me, and I dont have a backup of the original settings to re-install (which I'm not sure how to do that either). If anyone has any suggestions I'm open.

if you renamed them name them back to apk

I didn't rename them, I deleted them off my phone.

Any more info on how to fix this issue?
[Bravo General] GeNiO426:
OK, so I tried everything that's suggested pretty much everywhere and I'm still unable to update. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or what, but I've tried resetting the phone via the phone/recovery screen, tried updating via the phone, and I also tried replacing the original build, but nothing worked so far.

I have no idea what else I can do, but any help would be appreciated.
[Bravo General] jorgonv:
If nothing else works, you can always sbf. It sounds scarier than it really is, actually it is pretty easy. Just make sure you follow the directions. I've done several sbf's and they have all turned out perfectly.
[Bravo General] GeNiO426:
Thanks. I'm not sure what it was, but I switched to my Windows XP desktop (from my Windows 7 Home 64-bit laptop) and the SBF Flash worked perfectly, thanks bandroid, yourself, and others. I really appreciate all of the help given. 2.2 looks and feels a lot better than 2.1 so I'm really happy about that.
[Bravo General] mismisgh:
please send me one too and where do i put it.????
[Bravo General] MCFarmfresh:
If you will give me your email I can get it to you. For the life of me I cannot figure out hhow to attach files through pm using my phone lol. You can also use the .sbf method to upgrade but I'll definitely get the files to you if you send me your email.
[Bravo General] bullet358:
SBF'in it...

Okay....so one of your gentleman above (I'm new to the forum ish) stated that he had deleted some apps off of his OS. I did the same thing with AT&T Hotspot Locator (unfortunately, AT&T was quick on merging this standalone app into MyAT&T so I couldn't get the atthotspotlocator.apk back). I fixed this using the SBF file.

I won't give you the step by step but I can tell you RSD Lite is a free program from Motorola. It's basically the program they use to flash boot SW onto an otherwise dead device.

Don't be intimidated by it because it really is rather easy to facilitate. Just do like I did and YouTube how to load an SBF into a motorola device. You can pause and replay as you go along to assure no errors. Takes like 15 minutes once you've got all the necessary files downloaded.
[Bravo General] GeNiO426:
Well, that lasted long...

Everything was going fairly well until this morning when I clicked on the phone button (default launcher) and tried to go into the dialer, then it just closed every time I tried doing so.

To try to fix this I rebooted my phone, nothing; restored, nothing; factory reset, nothing; re-installed 2.2.1 FroYo via flashing the SBF with RSD Lite and 'apply:sdcard:update.zip' through Android's Recovery Screen, nothing.

When I tried doing the last 2, however, I received these errors (the first one I had with the first problem and the other 2 are new):

E:Can't mount CACHE: recovery/command

E:Can't mount CACHE: recovery/caller

E:Can't mount CACHE: recovery/log

Now, with the "caller" error, I did NOT touch anything having to do with the dialer and whatnot. That I know.

The last time I had problems with my laptop so I tried it on my desktop and it worked, but now I tried the desktop and it still isn't working properly. Some of the features that I had with the update are now gone such as the "third party apps" option and the sliding "lock screen" is now permanently present.

Any help with this is appreciated.
[Bravo General] bandroidx:
i would dl my bravo recovery app from the market if you dont already have it and try to wipe dalvik cache and cache. (wiping cache will format it, it seems you cache might be messed up possibly) if that doesnt work i would flash my rom. if that doesnt work, i would do a nandroid and then wipe data. unfortunately in my development of my rom i noticed that a problem similiar to this would crop up with the lock screen, it would lose it bars. sbf woudlnt fix the problem, only wiping data would.

but installing my rom wipes some parts of data and replaces stuff so it might fix it without going that far.
[Bravo General] GeNiO426:
That probably would work if I could get my phone rooted. I can't even do that now.
[Bravo General] GeNiO426:
Okay, got my phone rooted, but nothing has worked to fix my problem, though.

I wish there was a way to do a true factory reset/re-install where the phone is back to the exact state when I opened it out of the box. I have yet to find anything close, though.

Try to wipe cache in xrecovery
[XPERIA X8 General] Dare-Devil Inside:
I can't download AB from market with that ROM. As dbts25 said, try wipe cache. I assume that with all custom roms there's bug when downloading 3MB> files from Market.

Wipe cache in xRecovery should solve that.

But, when I downloaded Angry Birds from external site, install was successfull. It's a bit laggy on this tom, but it works.

EDIT: If you want Angry Birds Rio, and I assume that you can't download it from Market, do this:

-open your browser, open google and type: angry birds rio android download.

Choose second result, and when page opens click on FAST DOWNLOAD button. It should be light blue color. Your download should start.

When download is over, just click on that in notification bar and install it. Works great

Thanks to the power connector/audio connector being on the top of the phone... I'd like to figure out if theres a way to make this phone flip the screen when you put it in a car dock... any ideas?
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
i use alarm clock plus and it reorientates the screen for left tilt and right tilt in dock mode, but not upside down. im sure it wouldnt be too hard to figure out.
[Epic 4G General] djbacon06:
Yup, 270 degree rotation is a feature of FroYo for this phone. It works on several apps like GPS as well as in the settings menus. I think I remember seeing a line of code somewhere here that allowed you to enable or disable 270 degree rotation so it did not rotate to the right. So maybe enabling 360 degree rotation wouldn't be that hard? :confused:
[Epic 4G General] knyque:
The issue isn't 360 degrees (which would be back to "normal"), it's 180 degrees. The rotation lets you have only 3 rotations: 0 (normal), 90 (right side on bottom) and 270 or -90 (left side on bottom). I guess they thought that nobody would want 180 (top on bottom) for whatever reason.
[Epic 4G General] djbacon06:
you're absolutely right, I have no idea what I was thinking? I guess I meant 360 all the way around, to include 180..but that's definitely not what came out. :D:o

but I agree, I doubt I would really ever use the 180 degree position, but to have it enabled would be nice. Kind of like an iPad, you can use it no matter which way you pick it up.
[Epic 4G General] ZiggSVO:
The Samsung Galaxy Tab does this also! So if someone wants to work this out it would be pretty awesome :)
[Epic 4G General] intx:
My old(now bricked epic) had full 360 degree rotation, including upside down.

I was running Vision Kernel 1.2(however, I'd recommend trying 1.1 since 1.2 has been causing bricks)

Not sure if it includes it, but i know it was working upside down on mine the other day.
[Epic 4G General] djbacon06:
that's interesting, I was running vision 1.2 for a little while and didn't have this option. What rom were you on? I don't think it's a feature of the vision kernel (could be wrong tho) Sorry to hear about the bricking, I know ACS is on top of fixing this.
