The official Sonos Controller is now in the Android App Market. Unfortunately, there's no Honeycomb support. Can't seems to find the apk on my phone once it was downloaded. Would like to side load it onto my Xoom to see if it works.

Let me know if anyone can point this out.

Install ES File Explorer, open it then click Menu, Manager, App Manager. Long press on the app and press Backup, it will then backup the apk to backups\apps on the sdcard.

Hi,

I am interested in FM radio experimentation on the Galaxy S. for that, I have followed the CM7 GB team hacksung build instructions and the build has gone thru fine. I have obtained an update.zip file.

Is this all I need for a samsung galaxy S?

I find this quite different as I am mostly an HTC phone developer and the mechanisms of flashing etc seem very different here.

I am looking at either attempting the making of a root app or just flat out extending the vibrate when a call or txt comes in. Question is where would that file be? And yes I am going to dive right in! I have yet to grasp the file layout and have relied on other apps to do stuff for me. I figure the worst I can do is brick my tb....j/k. I will never say you can fully brick an android phone. I just wanna go further now because of the lack of customization to the vibration setting. Thanks!

I guess there is no set place for the vibration length in a file? I really don't want a different rom. Just want to get a place to start.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
Hi

I recently switched my rate plan and yesterday the new billing cycle started but now the data won't work. I've been on the phone with about 7 T-Mobile reps and none have been able to fix it. So I'd like to just go to the T-Mobile store, hand them my phone, and just let them fix it.

However, I'm running CM7 Stable and if they see that, of course they'll say that's the cause and blame it on that. So I'd like to flash a Sense build. What's the easiest route I can take to get back to a Sense build without losing root or S=OFF? (ie ROM recommendation -- there are just so many!)

I see all the ROMs here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=866175

Which one would be the best option for a quick flash (using CWR 3.0.0.0) so that I can take it to the T-Mobile store? (And then restore CM7 afterwards)

Thank you

You can just restore from your stock Nandroid, provided you have one (which you should).

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
I don't. But I want a clean build anyway.

Can anyone answer the question above?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrueBlue_Drew:
Ya I will answer it for you but the guy above me already answered it for the most part. You can just restore a stock nandroid. Tiger13 has a post of a nandroid you can use in the dev section. It is also in the Resource bible. You can also pick one of the stock type of roms in the dev section such as Orange Glacier or Royal Glacier (Allthough it looks slightly different than stock)

Oh, and not sure why you would ask what one is easier to flash. They are all the same when it comes to that. You need to download and flash it. None are easier or harder than the other. My suggestion is to restore a nandroid and see if you data comes back. Me thinks it might.

And BTW you have severel guides in your sig I noticed. Maybe you should think about making one on following directions and smart practices like making a stock nandroid after you root your device. ;)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
Ah, thanks. I clicked on Tiger's thread for the stock nandroid in that huge list of links and read through it. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=845756 Looks good, I'll try that one. That's exactly the type of help I was looking for, just a pointer in the right direction, thanks. The guy above just worded it poorly.

Yeah, it was hard trying to write a title that captured what I actually wanted to say. But I didn't mean "Which is the easiest to flash?" but rather "Which ROM should I use to get back to a rooted sense build (so I can reflash CM7 after T-Mobile fixes it)?"

(In other words, what is the easiest method of CM7 -> Stock Sense but keep Root while at the T-Mobile store -> back to CM7 afterwards.)

I was thinking of making some guides but to be honest, this isn't my phone; it's my GF's :) I wouldn't feel right making guides for a phone that I don't have access to 24/7. :D

[Edit]: Edited thread title for clarity
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrueBlue_Drew:
No prob and please dont think I am busting your balls or anything. I am not sure why 2.5.1.2 recovery is needed to flash the nandroid in tigers thread, but a nandroid like that will give you the stock look for sure. Most all the other roms have at least a few small visual tweaks.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
Ah crap, ok, didn't realize 2.5.1.2 was required. Which ROM is the closest to stock then that still preserves root? The reason I ask is because there are 50 ROMs, but all have tweaks. I don't want to be at the T-Mobile store and have some tweak pop-up and then they say "hey wait a minute, did you hack your phone, get outta here!" etc.

Also, as we've found out, not all of them are compatible with CWR 3.0.0.0. So that's why I was asking. If someone knows a quick ROM that I can flash, that would be really helpful :cool:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erickdj:
Easiest way is to make sure you got the latest clockwork(try Rom Manager and see if you got the latest clockwork), then boot into recovery, make a nandroid backup of your current setup. get the PD15IMG file from the Dev forum thread, boot into hboot and flash the stock image from there. that will make the phone stock except S-off will stick. Once done with t-mo, re-root with visionary(temp, then permanent), reboot a couple times and make sure root sticks and s-off is still there, go into recovery, wipe everything except the SDCARD and restore the nandroid backup, everything will be there from before. I've rooted/unrooted so many times lately that the process is not even hard anymore.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] civicvx94:
I originally asked in this in the Noob Guide thread, but this its driving new crazy so I figured id make a thread :)

Ok so I'm rooted now and have been trying to get CW recovery image installed but am having done difficulty.

I choose flash recovery from ROM manager, then reboot into recovery, stock 3e recovery so I reinstall packages, it comes back to the 3e image, reinstall packages again and now I have clockwork.

Now when I reboot the phone and then reboot to recovery again, I'm once again at the 3e recovery..if I reinstall packages again it will reboot me to clockwork, but it just won't stick.

I've done this multiple times now to no avail. Can anyone help me out here? Is it possible just to adb push the cw recovery image? I'm not a noob by any means, but this phone has been giving me a hell of a time, I would greatly appreciate any assistance here. Thanks in advance.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
I posted in the noob guide back, I suppose a custom rom is out of the question?

They can replace the stock recovery.

If you want to stay stock, it must be possible... hopefully others can chime in if that was your intent.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] civicvx94:
Thank you for the response sir, a custom rom is the goal, since I couldnt find anyone else reporting the same problem, I was just scared to flash a rom when the recovery wouldn't flash.

I'll be flashing tonight when I get time. Thanks again for your help.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Not sure what OS you want, but I would suggest Trigger for stability.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] civicvx94:
Awesome, that's what I was leaning towards so that makes my decision easier. I wish CM7 or miui were more stable, so I guess froyo it is..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
CM7 IS stable as far as using your phone as a phone and playing apps.

It does have battery drain issues (though not as bad as before), you can't charge the phone with it powered off, NO gps and 3d graphics is lacking.

Other than that, CM7 runs great. I've had it for a week now with no issues.

All that said, I would still suggest trigger.

Its something you either have or you don't. Most of the time the word common is placed in front of it and most people don't have that either.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arozer:
The simple answer to your first question is:

Sense is HTC's own software they put on top of Android.

For example Motorola uses Android's software, without any changes to it. Which is why their phones are called "AOSP"(Android Open Source Project).

HTC, however, felt they wanted to advertise their own **** and put their "Sense" on top of Android, thus called Sense Roms.

Advantages and disadvantages to both. Choose whichever suits your needs more. I prefer Sense roms though. Sprint Lovers being my favorite since I can remove all the crappy carrier roms (Sprint Nascar, etc..) without all the added feature.

I like simplicity.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:

I have motorola droid but not active on a data plan as I recently got a t-bolt. I used superoneclick to root it which goes smooth. However, I can't flash a rom b/c of e:can't mount sdcard /dev/block/mmcblk0. I've tried using fastboot through adb with command fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 but I think it isn't compatible with droid. Any other ideas that may be similar to fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 or how to get fastboot on my phone.

Or - am I just screwed for flashing new roms on phone?

No you are not screwed but the droid does not support fast boot as far as i know. Just use a rsdlite sbf from rootzwiki.com to get a recovery on your phone and then flash your favorite rooted rom (hint liquid gingerbread lol)

[Xperia Arc General] circleofomega:
I am thoroughly confused with the two...Though the Arc is pretty new and expensive, if the difference between it and X10 is going to seize with the Gingerbread upgrade for X10, I will drop the idea of Arc...

also, is there very little difference between the two, smoothness of the OS wise??
[Xperia Arc General] ronniecross:
Well to name a few you have hardware improvements (most notably in the ARC display), greater support for the future of Android, Unlocked bootloader, and on top of all that it looks damn sexy ;) :cool:
[Xperia Arc General] forzanerazzurri:
I think what is being asked is, are the hardware differences REALLY that big? Is the improvement in responsiveness and speed mostly due to Gingerbread and will the upcoming X10 Gingerbread update improve the performance of the X10 to levels near the Arc?
[Xperia Arc General] circleofomega:
You got it man. That's exactly what I am asking...infact, I hardly see any hardware difference between the two..I may be wrong...
[Xperia Arc General] Nimche:
Well, I am not an expert in comparing things very good but my personal opinion is that X10 & arc are total two different animal with some similarities. If you are a person that want the phone for its speed then you may say they are very same even though I still think ARC is more responsive(I had J 2.3.3 on my X10 which is fairly fast and optimized)

But the feel of the phone in your hand, hardware buttons, brightness of screen, size of the screen and picture quality of the camera and even the feel and look of the new power button has even more directed me to buy the arc. That was before I even get the phone but when you actually feel it then you will fall in love with many thing + thinness of the phone itself and well-thought line of the design.

Right @ this moment, X10 has lots of active developers which turned the phone from dead to an wonderfully working real X10(with locked bootloader, etc) but I think once arc gets more developers attention it will be a fast winner horse in terms of hardware and software.

It is all depends on you, you could even get HTC or Samsung with higher performance if you want. Depends on you. If I had the money I would get the arc.

just my 7 cents.
[Xperia Arc General] HYPER-X10:
Even though they both have 1Ghz Snapdragons, the MSM8255 in the arc is much better than the QSD8250 in the X10. X10 will never perform as well as arc, no matter what android version.

Then there is things like the better touch controller and other hardware differences that just make the arc feel so much nicer.

EDIT: for a comparison, HTC Desire has QSD8250, HTC Desire HD has MSM8255. Much better performance.
[Xperia Arc General] forzanerazzurri:
IS there a FPS limit on the arc? Is the touch screen that much more responsive? Thats one thing that has always bugged me about my X10. Typing on it is a nightmare sometimes.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r916:
It all depends on which ROM you are using (sense based or aosp).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
Depends on what rom you're running. I personally don't have a use for kernel manager as I just grab the zips and flash them in recovery. Kernel manager is a tool just like rom manager, both offer users friendly methods of flashing (kernels, roms) etc or as I would say (for the noobs lol). Id rather not use an app for something i am capable of doing myself in recovery. Not bashing it just saying I personally don't need it. What rom are you running?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BiGd4YaNG:
So what AOSP ROMs are compatible with what kernels?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
There's tons of 2.3 aosp roms out there. I use cm7 #39 with the tiamat 3.3.7 kernel or the savaged zen 2.0 kernel. Those are the main 2 kernels people run on 2.3 aosp. Savagez Zen also has their own aosp rom which includes more control of their SZ kernel.
