[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eddog4DROID:
I de-rooted yesterday (Froyo!) for the first time and out of principle want to see how long I can go. One of the only thing that I missed at the moment was screen captures that I need for the small amount of apps I have developed or plan on developing.

I wasn't aware of this ability in the SDK. That makes sense now.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rogerski1:
I accidentally did a screen capture today...the phone was on the car charger and I was trying to turn the screen off, I pushed the power button and heard the shutter sound. May be a glitch of somekind

Btw, I am not rooted
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paul_viado:
if you hold the soft back key and press the power button it will take a screen shot rooted or not. its a froyo feature thats always been there

Ladies and gentlemen, have you seen this **** its on the register. Basically this company, cellebrite is selling ufed devices (universal forensic devices) to police. The police can then read all your data off your phone via hardline, IR, or Bluetooth. This includes phonebook, handset data, sms, mms, SIM data, multimedia, and time and date stamps.

What happends when criminals and criminal organizations get ahold of one of these devices?

I would think this would be a breech of privacy. If this is real than this is just completely dumb
[EVO 4G General] cordell12:
I heard this on the radio this morning. It sounded like it has been going on since iphone upgraded to iOS 4. In michigian the police can take your iphone and plug it into some sort of hardware that pulls all your info from GPS and phone calls! The info is also uploaded to itunes, WTF!!!

feeling even better right now about owning a android :D
[EVO 4G General] aph:

That's not the point, your god given rights are being violated. Its not a matter of what one has to hide.....I majored in political science I can argue all day on this subject but I'm not lol.
[EVO 4G General] tC05:
Still what if you have something stored on your phone that was confidential and they read it? I wouldn't be to happy with it
[EVO 4G General] frontay:

Can someone please tell me how and where I can see delivery reports for messages sent by me.

In the settings, there's an option for "sending" delivery and read reports when requested but nothing else about delivery reports.

Is it even possible on my phone? I'm on stock Eclair.
[Defy General] Alessandro71:
I've given up and installed go sms pro

Every sms sent is flagged if the receipt has been received
[Defy General] athani:
Thank you for the reply, Alessandro.
[Defy General] MrBelter:
I use Handcent which you can set to play a noise when the message is delivered.
[Defy General] athani:
That's nice. Thanks.
[Defy General] rogier666:
You'll only get delivery reports if you ask for them before sending out the message. Those reports are totally useless. On every phone a delivery report means that it was delivered to the target phone, but on Android it just means that it was delivered to the recipient's network, regardless of whether the message reached the target phone or not.

It's a known Android bug that Google never bothered to fix: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2305#c0
[Defy General] athani:
That's a shame, really.

Thanks for the info, Rogier.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvmoran:
Hey guys, I've got a unique problem. I have an Eris running KaosEris v39 w/GPS fix and need to get back to Sense 2.1 so I can return to Verizon. The catch here is that the reason it's going back is because the USB port no longer works. That means I can't unroot in the traditional sense because I can't hook it up to a computer. Can anyone work their magic and help me out?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Two choices:

1) Use a Micro-SD to USB adapter to plug your Micro-SD card into your computer.

2) The free (Windows, Mac, and Linux) program QtADB can communicate with your phone over your home wireless network. You'll have to install a free app on your phone called adbWireless, too. I do this all the time.

After one of those you can use the FlashBack21 ROM to get back to unrooted stock.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvmoran:
I will give that a shot now. Will let you know how it goes.

Thanks a bunch!
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvmoran:
So I tried doing that, I have QtADB and the app for my phone. My phone gives me the IP to connect with and I'll go back to QtADB and go to File -> Connect -> WiFi but then nothing happens.

I've also downloaded the Flashback21v2_noRadio and have that ready. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with it once I get QtADB working. Any thoughts?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
You don't need Qtadb... you just wipe and then flash it from the custom recovery exactly the same way you would install any new (dev) ROM.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
He needs to get the FlashBack ROM on his SD card without using the USB port since it's not working for him.

Edit: I'm an idiot. Big DOH.

To the OP, if you haven't already, download the ROM through the phone (free XDA app), then move it to the root of your SD card once it's finished downloading, reboot into Amon RA recovery and flash the ROM.

It seems that the latest 20080411 update has changed how the radios sleep/wake and interact with each other. Often I find myself having to toggle them off and back on depending on what I need.

Something has changed with the Facebook Leaf, instead of opening in a leaf it opens the browser now instead.

Yeah i found that out they fixed it with the 311 build they had sent me but broke the browser leaf (google seach does not work) then this update and now the facebook thing and still google search in leaf is broken lol

There are few threads here, but i didn't find any information regarding this problem.

Some people claims that subtitles works for them. Some say that this is a known Gingerbread bug.

In thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1050248 is stated that

in any gingerbread Rom ,darky 10 ,110.1 ,base Roms , ... the problem exists. And the problem is when you play a video in hardware mode with any program ,subtitle and menus wont be shown on Tv screen while they are on phone's screen at the same time.

Has anyone found solution for this, or can someone confirm that this is Gingerbread bug, or there is a solution for this?

[Galaxy 3 General] RynoRn:
Hi all,

I rooted my Samsung Galaxy 3 with Kyrillos v4.0. Everything worked fine but I discovered that when I'm rebooting the phone it automatically

forgets everything

I made with the phone (options, synchronization, widgets, everything..). So it seems like it wipes the data on every reboot.

Anyone have an idea what the problem should be?

Could it be a problem that I had I5800XXJPM before I got Kyrillos?

It says I should need I5800XXJPF to upgrade to Kyrillos or something..

I hope u can help me,

Thanks!
[Galaxy 3 General] kyrillos13:
Hm reflash v4.1 :)
[Galaxy 3 General] RynoRn:
I'll try that today.

Thanks!
[Galaxy 3 General] red02498:
iam having the same problem with him , the only difference is i was flashing the 4.1 one

u guys r having "zero mb free space" issue ...!! it means u have zero mb free on /data partition.. so whatever changes u changed , is not getting saved in /data partition..!! so after a reboot u r back to the same position where u were before ur previous reboot.. :)
[Galaxy 3 General] RynoRn:
Yeah, it says I have no free space on phone. I can't install an app on my device. So the problem is what you said but what can we do with it? :)

hi,

i use boypps rom... and titanuim backup says i got 250 MB internal memory and 1 GB data2sd memory...

but when i install apps internal memory and data2sd memory gets lower ?!?!

can someone explain how that works and why ??

or does that rom use my ext4 partition ? i dont know ?!?!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Richy99:
it moves the data to the sd card so the 1g will decrease the more you install, the 1gb ext4 is the data partition
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] B-Man2005:
yes but when i install a app ... both decreases !! internal mem and data2sd memory ??

why is that ??

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Sesme:
Hi I'm currently working with the 2.3.3 version 8 of owain94 xcyanogen and jerpelea

The problem comes in that I stopped a bit to develop this.

I know like me there are more people looking and trying things.

My idea is a bit centralize the work. And that all who are willing to carry a 100% cm7 to mini and mini pro team work.

My idea is basically:

In creating a very basic cm7 with few programs and the basic functions of mobile and begin to develop on it the things not yet working properly.

Encourage you and begin to work together with 1 purpose

I have the people currently working on their projects as owain Cm7 94 and slade87, Chumby_666, galaningenieros

Among some things I can not understand and I can not but surely coming to understand that with your help and together we took it.

Forgive my English is very bad ...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] D4rKn3sSyS:
Im already working on that as you can see on my tweaks :), but something like a team?, i think we are already a team helping between us.

Asi es amigo :P
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Sesme:
if that is clearly ...

but if it is true that what you've done and tested I've tried on my part for what they are hours of work ... Put it this way worked 2 times ...

That's why we work to unite and join forces ... for example, someone gets to the other with the wifi radio another pair with the gfx and so spreading the work and testing it in a database when we changed version advances.

Right now the way we work is released a version and tried all things on it ... but for example the module mt overclock and are not required even for me is more important than the vital functions of mobile work in 2.3.3 100% NO?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] aZuZu:
well i'm noob in porting..

but i agree..

Camera / FM Radio are more important than OC / Dual Touch ...

Watching and comparing source codes of CM7 and SE i dicovered some things

1. ) it is not libaudio that is problem for fm radio but dbus we need working dbus becoure fmrx.so is failing to load due no /dev/dbus or something and fmreceiverif can't send init script to fm submodule due no "fmrx service".

2. ) we need to make unified hw/egl subsystem. Due X8/X10* have same hw.

3. ) Camera is crashing becouse CM7 camera uses media_profiles.xml and semcCamera has all in apk. And CM7 Camera uses bigger audio buffer than semcCamera and as i said dbus lib needs to be fixed..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Sesme:
The problem is that we have this:

x10 mini

mini pro x10

x8

10 or 15 trying many things to carry the 2.3.3 and if we unify all we would have soon ...

X8 and x10 are really the same? to hardware differences between the 3 or modules should separate?

x8 is a 3.2 megapixel camera but the rest is like the x10?

mini pro x10 has the keyboard and I think the screen is different from the x10 mini
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] aZuZu:
ro.board=???? if we use factory names don't see problem in unifiy usr/hw parts. screen sizes libEGL holds all standard screen sizes in side only diff is which device fd=?? .. frame device id will open 17, 18, 5, 6. unifiying that would be step closer.. becouse shakira opens one robyn other so you can't use copybit/gralloc from one on another becouse it is copying/whatever in wrong one... :D

all three devices are based on alsa audio arhitecture vs htc some on alsa other on oss.. and it seems that hciattach from SE is much better than on htc. and ro.is_brmc=0|1 or something for some roms works for some doesn't can't figureout why... there was in original init script denoded service nexus as far as i was able to find some info nice tool it sets wifi, bt, vold, and some other things.. all in one. according dude on legend fm porting. fm could be digital/analog or both depending on implementation on manufacturer side so that needs to be take in math too.. i'm comparing CM7 vs SE kernel ( not from FreeXperia) but original clean SE sources and must say SE job well done..(sarcarm)

So I was trying to get the new 2.3.20 firmware and I went to the Archos website. But it looks like there was a new firmware posted this morning. 2.3.26.

I don't know how to direct link, but i'll try.

http://update.archos.com/8/gen8/gen8_2.3.26/firmware_archos_android_gen8.aos
[Gen8 General] jknut:
Version 2.3.26 - April 21st, 2011

Wi-Fi: fix cannot scan on an access point above channel 11 regression

Phone tethering: fix TCP/IP header compression setting crash

System stability: avoid Android reboot in case of missing audio

Media library: fix media libray not updated on hard drive based A70

Notification: decrease low battery notification volume

Application: attempt to solve Pandora application not able to switch songs

Application: solve music lag in applications using OGG format

Bluetooth GPS: increase compatibility with 3rd party applications

Display: avoid white/black screen happening sometimes when switching back the display on
[Gen8 General] Techngro:
Thx jknut, i'm such a noob I forgot to post the changelog. I usually wait till theres a uruk version, but i'm gonna install now cause i'm fairly sure we'll get uruk in a couple of days.
[Gen8 General] toyface:
Not that much of a noob, you posted the link to the firmware that should end my buggy horrors :)

Thanks jknut for the changelog :)
[Gen8 General] sw6lee:
Hi, I have one question.

If I have the permanent root from churli (I'm sorry if I miss-spelled it..), do I just updated it regularly? I used to update all the firmwares by just downloading the firmware right on my A70 and install it right away.. but will that work if I have the root? I just rooted my A70 yesterday...and I'm a newbie haha
[Gen8 General] jknut:
I just followed Steps 2, 3, 4 of Chulri's post. Chulri already has the new files for "fw 2.3.26 +rw" for Step 3. I like the optional Step 4 because I don't have to worry about holding down the volume button everytime I boot to get root.
[Gen8 General] enteo:
Hi,

Has somebody tested this new release?

I updated to version 3.2.20 last week and I was very happy when I realized that cinema plugin was not required to play all the formats which I was not able to before the update (AAC, AC3, MPEG2, etc)

Can somebody confirm if this has not been "fixed"?

Thank you.
[Gen8 General] toyface:
Well I have tried this new release and all I can say is bootloop, oh and to top it off I think that my right speaker has blown.

Archos I hope you're reading this, you need to sort your firmware releases out. Whilst you're at it Gingerbread would be nice. If you can put it on the Arnova with inferior hardware you have no excuse but to port it to the 101.
[Gen8 General] cutterjohn:
I just noticed the update when I went to the archosfans 2.3.20 bugs thread to report wifi drop powersave disabled while running tunein radio...

OTA update went fine, just waiting for A43 to charge up, then I'm going to do the A32 as well...

[EDIT]

Power LED blinking -> UI batt meter (and About Device) say 98% charge...

had this once with 2.3.20 showing 97% when LED blinking but next charge and thereafter showed 100% when LED blinking...

[/EDIT]
[Gen8 General] Sknorrell:
I had this Problem from the first day.

LED blinks and the battery show around 90%.

If i unplug the power the status goes to 98-100%, most 100%.

If i reboot the device with plugged power, the status is 75-90% after restart.

Sometimes the status falls to 87-91% if i plugged the power in.

I can live with it, but it is annoying.
[Gen8 General] min1968:
did they remove bluetooth PAN tether ? I had dun/pan option while setting up BT tether with 2.3.20. but now no more that option. the probken for me is, i am using cdma phone(bell htc touch) but with BT DUN the Archos cannot dial CDMA number #777. I set bell APN (pda.bell.ca) it's not working. Actully even if it works I worry about it because it may charge me more.

Before with 2.3.20 , it worked perfect with BT PAN and my phone set to Internet sharing.
[Gen8 General] gammaRascal:
This update cleared up my waking-up issue.

It's pretty much an instant on now after the monitor idles off. Before, (after being off for more than a few minutes) it was a crap-shoot as to whether or not the screen would come on and I often had to fight with it and double, triple, quadruple tap the power button to get things alive. No longer.
[Gen8 General] kasperke:
still reboot cycles problems when charging the 101..problem started with these last 2 updates.
[Gen8 General] cutterjohn:
twit.tv app FCs all of the time with this fw...

I wonder why they released this one OTA as it seems to be more broken than .20 was...
[Gen8 General] slim_thumb:
youtube and many other flash video played in the browser hangs after about 15 seconds or so. Soemtime this causes the whole system to freeze requiring forced reboot.

This is the worse build so far, my A70 was most stable at 2.1.08.
[Gen8 General] Techngro:
Wow. I am having the exact opposite experience with this firmware. I find the browser and flash to be very solid. Before I could never play even youtube mobile in HD without it freezing and forcing a hard reboot.

Also, i'm having less general freezes.

I am still having absolutely no luck whatsoever with tethering to my Android phone (cliq). It's driving me crazy cause this was one of the main reasons I went with Archos.

Have you guys done a full reinitialization? That's what I did and, even though it's a pain to reload all your files, it might help with many of the problems you are having.
[Gen8 General] toyface:
As a matter of fact I did an Android reset to get away from some of the problems I was having with bootloops and such. This has helped with the general performance of the 101, which I'd say is down to the 64mb swap file I now enjoy.

I did have a couple bootloops until I enabled a lock screen pattern unlock and I have now experienced nothing but fairly good performance
[Gen8 General] wangsiyu:
It seems that 2.3.26 is different from vesions before
[Gen8 General] jakkrith:
Need more language for External Keyboard Layout such as Thai :)
[Gen8 General] cutterjohn:
You'd probably be better off posting in the archosfans.com forum's bug list thread for 2.3.26 as Archos employees actually monitor that site and have actually even started some of the buglist/fw release threads... i.e. I'm not sure that they're even aware of the xda-devs gen8 section and even if they were would they bother to read it...
[Gen8 General] DougEdey:
I got these updates quickly after they came out and I must say the overall responsiveness improvements were amazing.
[Gen8 General] Flix123:
In an other thread, some people said, that Archangel is working with 2.3.26 after a few tries.

If Archangel is really working constantly with this firmare, I would do an update from 2.1.08.

Should I do the update and is Archangel now working?
[Gen8 General] cyber9940:
Just installed the update and happily this "issue" has not been fixed :D.

AC3/MKV/MPEG2 plays fine.

Additionally, I've managed to obtain root with Archangel ( you can try killing and restarting Archangel several times ) EDIT: This method seems to work very erratically. Just managed to obtain root two times...
[Gen8 General] Flix123:
Now I install the 2.3.26 firmware, but I can't get root. Restarting Archangel doesn't help.

What can I do?
[Gen8 General] mafcov:
firmware seems to work okay however do not see an improvement in performance
[Gen8 General] marcusmarcus:
Installed this firmware and operation seemed smooth, even with stock launcher. Unfortunately I was getting a lot of reboot loops. Android Reset took care of the reboot loops and now seems good. I am still getting the white screen when put to sleep once in a while (but not nearly as often as previous firmware), just need to push power button to wake it up and then push again to put to sleep again and it usually takes care of the issue.
