[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabitzu6:
I will retake this post for not starting another one.

Like I said in the first post:

"A few week's ago the phone just start restarting when i use the internet browser, and get stuck when try to restart. I have to get out the battery and restart it.

I was to the place from where i bought and they told make me an HW reset. I make it right there, and surprise after 2 days it has the same problem without installing any software."

I finally root my phone an I installed GingerVillain 2.0, and I have the same problem. :( .

Another thing that I observed it's that when the phone restarts it tries to boot, it restarts again (not all the time makes a second restart).

Thank you!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_last_don:
Hi All,

Just tried to install the Latest Leedroid ROM (GB) but then the desire hung on the HTC white screen.

I used Clockwork to install the ROM, but before doing so backed up via clockwork.

Now i want to restore that backup, but can't find a way of doing it.

I have been able to get to the recovery screen using 'Flash ROM', however from here when i try installing clockwork via the the zip file it does not work.

I used the option resotre from Nand but no Nandroid folder exists.

Having interrogated the SD Card there is a folder called clockworkrecovery and it does contain a backup folder with files that have a .img extension.

Can someone please help me get back to a working ROM, or explain a way i can use the backup i took to recover my phone.

Thanks in advance.

I have been looking for a simple enough guide to follow (2hrs +) but i have found nothing.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Can you boot to recovery? ie; turn phone off. Hold volume button (-) and press power button? Should boot to recovery. Then you can navigate to select the recovery file.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_last_don:
Yes i can get to recovery, it give me a red triangle with an exclamation mark, at that point i use Flash ROM - recovery-windows.bat to get into recovery, it at that point i am stuck, because none of the options give me the ability to restore from the backup i took via clockwork
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
First go to Normal recovery (Red Triangle) by maintaining Vol Down + Power

and then press Vol Up + Power

This will bring you to another recovery menu where you can : Reboot , Flash from sd , Wipe Data/factory ,Wipe Cache
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_last_don:
THANKS!!!!

Can't believe i spent that long for such a simple task!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Not such a simple task, if you don't know about it.

On a more personal note, I've been reading a lot of issues with LeeDroid ROMs lately. Maybe it is the spring weather. And it concerns updating.

Just a notice...

Easy Guide for Backup and Restore using ClockWorkMod Recovery

Advanced Restore of Data for installing after a Rom upgrade

Very detailed with Pictures You can follow
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MartyLK:
I love the fact I can reliably and precisely backup and restore a ROM flashed through CWR. It will backup every minute detail and restore it back to the exact condition it was in at backup...not even a single icon missing or different. Even the exact point in a song that was playing when the ROM shut down and I backed it up is restored. And I have been doing these a lot without a hitch.

I like to check out new and other ROMs and I'll backup my current ROM and then do Task 29 and flash the new ROM. I take the backed-up ROM, which is saved on the SD card in one single, specifically named, folder and archive it on my PC. Then I flash the new ROM. If I like that new ROM, I back it up and save the backup on my PC. If I don't like it, I do Task 29, reinstall magldr and the specific recovery file for the backed-up ROM and then copy the archived backup back to the SD card and flash it. Super simple and it puts it back like it never was removed. :) It's a helluva lot better than Titanium Backup. CWR backup is more akin to a Star Trek transporter where it puts it back exactly like it was before...lol...And it has been so perfectly reliable. Not even a hiccup has been noticed and I've done it a bunch of times.

Hi,

Great idea.

However,people being people,and noobs being noobs,you might want to change picture 11 on MS WORD sheet to "restore"and "restore" rather than "restore"and "backup".

Hello everyone. I have been testin a rom called miui, and now I found it great and I am going to keep it. The problem is that the test I made were with a borrowed 16GB SD card, and now I would like to replace it with my definitive 16 GB class 6 SD card. How can I do this without having to reinstall and configure everything?

This procedure seems to be the right one, but I have a question, does it save everything you have in your SD card?, if this is afirmative, then I have a problem, because I won´t have enough space in the SD to make the backup file.. what can you recomend me to do?.

Best regards and thank you very much for all your support

[Networking] Ferrari353:
Kindle 3G offers free 3G, so would there be any way to hack it to create a 3G hotspot for my phone? If possible, I would buy the Kindle just for the free 3G...It would be totally worth it.
[Networking] jpgivens:
I have two Kindles and they work great with 3G for downloading books. If I use the built in browser, it sucks. It may simply be a limitation of the software but I would not recommend using the Kindle 3G as a hot spot - even if someone figures out how to do it.
[Networking] Mullicious:
The speed would be severely limited. And amazon would know about it faster than you can flash a ROM. Not worth it.

You CAN'T upgrade a rooted phone from KIES... It's ONLY for LOCAL provider/phones and WHEN the LOCAL provider have an update THEN AND ONLY THEN the KIES will upgrade an UNROOTED CLEAN UNTOUCHED phone...

And they are RIGHT!!!
[Captivate General] GSMinCT:
What's the next phone after the captivate that's going to get a lot of dev attention? It seems like the Inspire and the Atrix aren't getting much, likely due to how hard it is to load ROMs. Is it just a matter of wait and see to know what the next well-developed AT&T Android phone is?
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
most likely whatever the next samsung phone is, if only because they don't bother with trying to lock them down
[Captivate General] zelendel:
As it gets more defined I see it getting harder to load up custom roms for android. Ok maybe not harder but a longer flash process. I would say the next would be the next great HTC that comes out. A few have already moved from the Captivate to the Inspire and swear to leave Samsung alone lol
[Captivate General] GSMinCT:
I do feel like HTC has the most support among enthusiasts, but it's hard to tell. Aren't the next Sony Ericson devices going to have non locked bootloaders purposely? If any of those hit AT&T, then I feel like those are going to be hot phones to develop for, since they have bloated software, unlocked bootloaders, and a lot of hardware. Or am I totally on the wrong track?

That, and when AT&T eats up T-Mo, we should have a lot more phones, since the MT, Sidekick and G series phones will be rolled into the AT&T portfolio.
[Captivate General] ballz0iron:
Personally ive had such bad experiences with sony devices of all shapes and sizes (computers, phones, home entertainment equipment) that i would buy a locked bootloader motorola phone before i would buy from sony again. that being said. ill probably go for the next great samsung phone, probably the galaxyS 2.
[Captivate General] Vivified:
Many of our great Cappy devs moved to the Inspire(adamholden, di11i, DG)
[Captivate General] bclark:
Personally I picked up an Inspire but mainly out of boredom, I even flash my cappy more now, lol. As soon as the sgs2 is out for a few weeks ill be grabbing that too. It'll be a pricey move but with the way Samsung has taken care of those customers I see it as a good investment.
[Captivate General] GGXtreme:
I'd stick with Samsung for a few reasons:

-Their hardware is top-of-the-line

-There are minimal lockdowns and restrictions to functionality and development

-Their build quality isn't terrible (they use Gorilla Glass and hard plastic, etc.)

-Their software has drastically improved (launcher aside, TouchWiz is pretty cool)

-Their video drivers are the only ones with h/w acceleration of tons of video and audio formats, and their MFC has support for containers such as MKV

-You can find really good deals on upgrades to phones like the Captivate
[Captivate General] heavyweight80:
Samsung just released benchmark figures over 3000 for the SGS2. I truly hope AT&T get it before the end of the year
[Captivate General] bclark:
I don't see waiting for the att version a good idea at all, especially after the froyo situation.
[Captivate General] GSMinCT:
I've had pretty good experiences over the years. We have some aging Sony HT gear, including my receiver that's from the 80's, before I was born!! That being said, I'm not so sold on their phones.

Really? I don't see a whole lot going on for the Inspire. There's only a couple of roms out right now...

Top of the line hardware? Yeah, right. Samsung's hardware is decent, I love the form factor of the Captivate, but the build quality and RF are definitely a mixed bag. Some big ups, and some big downs.

I would agree about the lockdowns, however, they are a lot more open than Motorola about it.
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
With Gingerbread source code released, I'm happy with my Captivate for a good while longer. There are still 2.2.1 roms I haven't flashed yet. I dont think I'll be moving on anytime soon
[Captivate General] Dani897:
not sure what the next will be with the 4g galaxy s line being more diverse and the galaxy s 2 not being available on contract yet.

also i think the atrix will get alot but it will come in different forms. some (like me) are holding off for alternaltive before the splurge on an atrix. i want to see what others have to offer in the dual core areana before i open my wallet but very well might get an atrix. there will be kernel modules and patches rather than kernels built from source. also they are working to get full advantage out of the motorola webtop view. using it to launch linux along side android making the accessories almost worth having.
[Captivate General] GSMinCT:
I wanted to love the Atrix because of it's qHD screen in the 4" form factor, but the way its locked up is just bad. I hope that devs are able to get past it, but the other thing that I'm worried about, both on the official update and ROMs side is that they will be worrying about the whole webtop/dock garbage, and that will slow down the actual software development of the device in order to incorporate a bunch of useless features.
[Captivate General] sanjeezy91:
I too havn't had good experiences with sony phones. They seem to be turning into the next apple. Barely upgrade their phones and say thats its a whole new phone. (x10/arc)

Definitely want the galaxy s II. that thing's a beast and a half.

So disappointed with the Atrix's smokey screen. It had so much potential!

Has anyone heard anything about the Infuse 4g? it seems so insignificant now.
[Captivate General] GSMinCT:
The Galaxy S II does seem like a cool phone, I'm just a little concerned about the trend towards 4.3" screens. 4" is ginormous enough- can't we just stop there?
[Captivate General] Enhanced:
Most of them reduce the bezel size so that a larger screen doesn't necessarily mean a way larger device. Take the SGSII for example and you will see that it ain't that much bigger than it's predecessor despite an extra 3 inches in screen size.
[Captivate General] 13_:
Lol you forgot your "."

I was like what the hell did I miss ,a seven inch screened phone?... Ha then a decimal and quick maths...oh ya. But for a second you had me :P

[Captivate General] viny2cool:
I think Sammy did a very decent job with their galaxy S series...except few problems(like GPS and long delay in froyo update)...but I think they have compensated that with fast GB update (atleast for I9000 ) and upcoming SGSII....its still looks the most powerful beast compared to HTC and Moto's Dual core phones...Its even better then soon to be launched EVO 3D.....it will be very reasonable and appropriate upgrade from current SGS we have and Supercurio confirmed from his sources that SGSII's bootloader will be unlocked......also TW 4.0 looks very promising to me....
[Captivate General] JamesR913:
Do we have any idea when the sgs2 is coming out in the us?
[Captivate General] GSMinCT:
I've always thought Samsung hardware to be a little cheap and plasticy compared to the others... and that's true today. The only reason I got it is because it was the first good phone in years that AT&T had. Samsung is also notorious for bad RF, although in the Galaxy S, it seems to be average, not poor like other Samsung devices. I still wish Nokia would build Android, their build quality is unparalleled, as if their RF performance.
[Captivate General] heavyweight80:
GForGames.com had an article with a leaked May date for Verizon. Who knows about everyone else. The SGS2 does have impressive specs. Not really sure if I'll wait for it,especially the hefty price tag they're fetching now in the UK. Getting the wife the new HTC Monday from AT&T. If I like that,might end up geting another. At the same time I love my Captivate,especially at the point my phone is set up now. I guess patience is a virtue.
[Captivate General] topiratiko:
DEFINITELY a SGS 2! Will NEVER buy a motorola product after reading what they posted on twitter. Maybe an htc down the line. Played with the inspire it actually feels good

Sent from Paragon Optimized
[Captivate General] GSMinCT:
It seems like AT&T and Sprint have a lot more to gain from the SGSII than Verizon, but we'll see who launches it first... I'm also hoping they make it easy to load ROMs on... if they do I guess that will be the true successor the Cappy.
[Captivate General] tercenary:
Galaxy S II is a beast on paper. Dual 1.2 GHz processors running gingerbread??? Sign me up! As for the next great phone, i agree with many here who believe the dev's and supporters will determine that. The Evo 4G is a good phone, but the overwhelming support it gets in forums like XDA make it a great phone. I love my cappy, but out of the box it was crap compared to how it performs now. The community makes the phones; not the other way around.
[Captivate General] GSMinCT:
Yeah, I'd have to agree. The one obvious exception is the Nexus S, but it's hardware is looking a little long in the tooth for a $500 phone at this point...

Hello

I have a problem. Some days ago I noticed that the google apps were not syncing. So following a bad advice, I deleted the GApps data.

Now, apps like gmail or market send me to the google account creation screen. I enter my email and password, but it cannot connect. Nor with wifi neither with 3G. The rest of apps like the browser can connect normally, so it is not a connectivity problem. It just says: "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server"

Please help me, I don't know what to do.

-------------

Solved. You must delete the file:

/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

You must:

be root

use adb, a terminal emulator or a root explorer

delete that file

reboot the phone

After rebooting the phone will reconnect properly.

Hey guys i have a simple question. I have a Dell Inspirion 1501 that was given to me by my roommate. It's slow as ****... I want to upgrade the ram, Processor and HD on it. Ram and HD are no big deal but the processor i was wondering if anyone knew what the socket style is on the MOBO for this unit. I was thinking it was AM3 or AM2 but not 100% positive and if anyone can tell me the max speed it can handle i would greatly apreciate it. I googled it and didn't get squat so i thought i would ask here.
[Off-topic] MacaronyMax:
Seems there are two versions of it, 1 having a Sempron the other a Turion (Source)

if it's the Turion thats a 754 socket and you have little chance in upgrading to much better performance and if it's a Sempron it's AM3 which your more likley to be able to upgrade, although before you go out and buy a new chip check the current one isn't soldered in place :D
[Off-topic] Makdasamurai:
Woot mine has the Sempron so i might just toss an Athlon 64 x2 in here then :P
[Off-topic] MacaronyMax:
Haha Congrats, But like I said, check the current CPU isn't soldered in, some company's do this to their laptops :D
