Heres the thing though. That similiar threads function (which I know about, run it on my forums) pulls threads from all forums. So with that said; who's to say someone's going to think it applies to them or their experience if its from the G2, or some phone forum?

Logically I myself would ignore it, since it's pulling threads from irrelevant forums

Just saying...
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
When you are trying to post a new thread you are right, it displays similar threads in all of XDA but users within threads can use "search this thread" to limit the search to that particular thread (hopefully) before trying to post a new thread.

What I've seen using the "Search This Thread" function is that being this is a very active forum since November of last year that the results that a search brings back may contain a lot of sometimes irrelevant results. Especially when you use really often used keywords like "Market" or "Force Close" or "Bricked" (you get the idea).

I'm not excusing the folks that post all of those duplicate threads but just trying to understand them.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebadfrog:
And if you search for "Market" only on google you will get a lot of worthless info as well. Narrow your search a little. "Market force closes when opening". "My tab is stuck in a boot loop"....etc
[Captivate General] jpcdeux:
Idk why, I LOVE this top bar. What kind of ROM's had this and are there any good ones for the Captivate??? Thanks for excusing my ignorance
[Captivate General] rjblack11:
It looks like first andriod OS but I dont have a clue.
[Captivate General] ryude:
Looks like Android 1.6/2.1 AOSP.
[Captivate General] jpcdeux:
Is it Vanilla or whatever?
[Captivate General] rjblack11:
No dont think so. The "e" stands for edge data coverage which is 2.5g and older than 3g and H. I think its just a screenshot of the old market on an edge data plan android.
[Captivate General] rjblack11:
Maybe the "droid" from verizon.
[Captivate General] jpcdeux:
They could've been in an Edge coverage area. I know it's at least 2.1, I had a rom like this on my Vibrant. Thanks for the random guesses ill just have to dig around the web for a while longer.
[Captivate General] tysj:
That notification bar would burn in on the screen so quick it wouldn't even be funny. There's a reason why google changed it to black for the Nexus S/2.3
[Captivate General] IllegalOpcode:
It looks like 2.1 on the nexus one( aka vanilla).
[Streak 5 General] tonyII:
ok i rooted my streak so i can do some screen grabs, below:

i have a red streak from dell with stock 2.2

people talk about 345 and stuff what do i have and what is considered the upgrade rom, like for example android v 2.2.2

i have swype official on my current rom and would really like to kepe it, is it on all the roms for froyo for streak? if not advise which ones have it and dont please

also, before this streak i had a O2 official android 2.1, and it had a prettey top bar / status bar can i have this back somehow and or is it included on the newer roms

p.s. i tried the system update button in about and it says theres nothing

p.s.s does anyone know why shootme screen grabber has a pink tinge lol, everything pinkish is whiteish or greyish in real life :P

thanks in advance guys, im so nooby soz....

ok major edit i forgot to add the screen grabs , ahahah doh !
[Streak 5 General] chrisrotolo:
shoot me is a known issue, its hardware related, Thank Dell!, the 2.1 status bar with the little app drawer is nice, but hasnt been ported to 2.2, may depend on your carrier, for system updates, 345 is one of the latest stock builds. you can always manually upgrade/flash a 2.2.2 build.

streakdroid gives you the option to keep your stock swype, other stock roms i would imagine they have stock and not the new beta swype.
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
use screenshot by gik software, it works fine on the streak

318 = latest OTA version

345 = latest one that's not on their OTA server
[Desire HD General] Dubadai:
Been using Android Revolution 3.5 on and off now for some time and even though CM7 is nice, the battery time of the Revolution is much better.

Just wanted to share what battery performance I get with Android Revoltion 3.5 with Radio:

12.28e.60.140fU_26.04.02.17_M2

Note:

*I have full coverage all the time with this radio.

*I have automatic screen brightness

*I use SRS audio setting in music

*I use Bose Around Ear headphones

*I charged it full during the whole night using USB, then in the morning, cleared battery stats in Recovery, started up as 99% and charged it another hour until 100%

With about 2 hours of music, about 100 SMS, and three 10min phone calls, after 8 hours and 26min and 12s on battery I have the following stats:

Battery level: 76%

Battery Use:

Display: 58%

Voice Calls: 15%

Cell Standby: 11%

Phone Idle: 9%

Mediaserver: 4%

Android System: 3%

Just wanted to share this for people who are wondering about battery time of the DHD.

Thanks

[Nook Color General] xdaikatanax:
Hello all,

I've got CM7 running great on my NookColor. Even the Nook App works, and I can redownload all of my books to wherever I want without issue. Bravo!

One slight snag though: the Nook App, for some strange reason, seems to require that the Nook be on Wifi in order for some books to open. This means when I'm at work I can't read some of the books I've paid for through B&N. I tried opening these with another reader (Aldiko), but I got a username/password request to open these books, and my B&N login doesn't work.

Does anyone know a fix for this? Or, is there another app that lets you open .epub files that come from the Nook App?

Much obliged!
[Nook Color General] wrdoss:
I don't think I've ever tried using the Nook App with WiFi off - I'll have to try that after work.

As for Aldiko, I was able to read the B&N DRM protected books by using my B&N username (in my case it was my first and last name, but I'm not sure if that's standard) and my credit card number as the password. I just needed to do this once.
[Nook Color General] xdaikatanax:
I never thought to use that as my password - I'll give that a shot and post back. Thanks!
[Nook Color General] xdaikatanax:
After updating to the latest nightly and reinstalling, the Nook App is working just fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] arodhr13:
Hi I was wondering if any one could give me a break down on how to put movies on my g2x.

Like where to get hd movies.

How to convert if needed.

And where to store the movies on my phone.

Thanks any help is appreciated
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Convert or download MP4's and transfer them to a external micro SD preferably. If you don't have a micro SD then just transfer them to the built in memory by hooking the supplied USB cable to your computer. A couple movies will fill up your built in memory pretty quick though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.orange303:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
No, I don't download any movies. I just convert my Bluerays and DVD's.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mightykc:
Use Handbrake to convert your DVDs to .mp4. I would just use the resolution default once the movie loads up, convert it and it should be good.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stefan.buddle:
Usenet but based on the fact that you didn't know how to put things on your memory card I would say that's a bit out your league
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Actually since this device will play Divx out of the box with no addons Divx will be your best bet and is also better quality than MP4's.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.orange303:
actually there should be no discussion of downloading movies here. come on guys.

the correct answer was given.

but one has to mention its against rules to have that discussion.

so no im not trolling.

however if youve burned your own collection to CONVERT ive found format factory to be extraordinary.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mingkee:
Use 480p (854x480, 800x450, or 640x480) if you want to convert.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] bonikowsky:
I'm really looking at the Transformer as an alternative to a netbook. I love the fact that it supports USB peripherals.

But I'm going to just assume that it won't natively support an external USB DVD drive. Does anyone know whether that would be something to possibly look forward to? I'd assume it would mean writing drivers (not to mention a DVD app or something) and I wonder whether they could be written to support generic DVD players. Any input from devs looking for ideas? :)

that would sure make the transformer useful for long trips...

not really sure whether this goes in apps or general...
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] bonikowsky:
*Cough...
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] knoxploration:
I'd imagine there's relatively little demand for (and hence, relatively little chance of) this, although I could be wrong -- I know VLC is being ported to Android and supports DVD playback already on PC, but who knows if that functionality will be included, and at the very least a USB driver would likely be needed since DVD players don't generally support Mass Storage Class.

There are numerous apps out there which will let you format-shift your personal DVDs to let you put them on a memory card or USB stick for viewing without needing to carry extra hardware with you.

It's outside the remit of this forum, but if you PM me, I can recommend one such program for you that's very good and user-friendly, if it's legal in your area. (In many places it falls within fair use rights and is legal, but only you know for where you live).
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] bonikowsky:
yeah i got you. I've got any number of options on my pc already. i've got all my own movies in iso format there.

thing is, I'm getting the Transformer to replace (as much as possible) the computer. It can't handle lots of video converting anymore. (usually overheats and crashes way before a movie's done lol)

if I could use the transformer to do the converting that would work too, but I've never heard of any way to do that directly from android.

Im looking for a way to force flag the OS to a first time boot (the initial welcome screen when the OS boots for the first time after a reset).

Is this possible? Im working on an image that I would like to pass on to someone, but I want the welcome screen to show when they flash it themselves (as I've already entered the image an made some custom adjustments to system and data, then dumped the images).

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkat797:
On the Verizon website, they talk about the changes in thebnew update and it doesn't seem worth it...is there anyone who can tell me if its worth the update, or if I should just stay on the latest superclean? Id like to know any features that weren't mentioned on the website. Any ui difference? And different apps? And stuff like that. Thanks in advance and im looking forward to hearing ur opinion.

1. This should be in either General or Q&A.

2. It's not worth it.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KitsuneKnight:
The differences between SuperClean 2.9.2 and Froyo from Verizon? There's going to be all the bloat that SuperClean removed, none of the nice stuff SC added, and a few misc low level changes that might improve performance/reliability (or, reduce it).

Unless you like flashing, I'd suggest just waiting a while until newer and better ROMs are released, based on E"C"01/ED01.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobloblaw1:
It's worth it because it gives all the devs official release files to work with. Other than that....no, it isn't really worth it unless you HAVE to run stock. then 2.2 stock is an improvement over 2.1 stock.

you are probably putting the 'clk' version of the rom in your storage card for installation. you need the 'magdlr' version of the rom for clockwork mod to correctly install android
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] RunNgun42:
Wow I cant believe this worked. You have 2 recoveries, MAGLDR and CLK. So one would think you use the CLK rom with the CLK recovery, and the MAG rom with the MAG recover.

NOPE!!

You use MAG rom on CLK recovery. Jesus christ I spent 3 hours on this.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] FarmerBobSE-X10:
Hi,

I've noticed that there are not too many FlashTool firmwares posted around. I just prepared a new one, for Orange Romania's X10i (Sensous Black). It is the Sony Ericsson X10i_2.1.A.0.435_ORA-RO GENERIC 1239-5661 version, with multi-touch and 2.1.54 baseband, for branded X10i's.

If there is anyone else that wants it's own firmware (but already has the 13740270 folder from SEUS), I can (and will) prepare his firmware for FlashTool, for those times when SEUS just don't wanna work anymore.

Good luck and good... flashing!

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHANGiism:
So last night, I felt a bit adventurous and flashed CM7. I had my Titanium backups done so I restored my apps back but none of the backups would restore its user settings, like how it did for TW-based roms. For example, my LancherPro does not have the paid status, my XDA app needs my ID/PW put in again, Whatsapp needs to reconnect with my contacts, etc etc. I went back to EC01 rom and restored everything back without any issues. Is there an explanation as to why the user/password/key settings aren't getting restored in AOSP/CM roms? I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.

[XPERIA X8 General] maveloth:
Is stock eclair there isn't a GUI option to disable it.

About chmod 777, I haven't done it yet... but I guess you have to adb shell something.

To know how to use those commands, just have a click on the search button...

[XPERIA X8 General] skyboyextreme:
thanks i found this thread before but i can't apply this method because i don't know how to chmod777 the file so i can't get this to work ? can you try it and then tell me how to exactly do it please , thanks again m8
[XPERIA X8 General] maveloth:
First thing, you have to learn how to adb shell.

But you have to make everything ok before using it.

So, let's see how it has to be done..

Download the .zip file posted on the other thread [linked above].

Using root explorer, just copy and paste the content of the .zip file under the /etc/ path of the phone.

After you have done this, let's adb shell.

1. Download this file: http://db.tt/cq44S4v

2. Extract the adb.zip file to C:\adb [there will be a folder named "adb" within the C:\ path, with 3 files within it].

3. On your phone, click Settings > Applications > Development, and make sure USB Debugging is on.

4. Plug your phone into your computer via USB cable [it needs to be on]. It should say installing drivers if your phone is plugged for the first time and you are using Windows.

4.1 You'd better install the drivers which comes with X8 software [PC Companion], or just google for them.

5. After it installs the drivers, go to the Start menu and type "cmd" into the search bar to open the command prompt.

6. Type the following into the command prompt window [hitting enter at the end of every line]:

cd\
cd adb
adb devices

You should see a serial number pop up, it’s the serial number of your phone. This means you are all set.

After all this procedure, you can finally "chmod" your files.

Always from the CMD, type this:

adb shell

You should see a "#" on the left. That's good.

Now enter the path with the file to chmod:

cd /etc

Then finally chmod it:

su chmod 777 hw_config.sh

You're done.

Hope this helps.

Comments:

I'd say that my phone works at 70% considering that my phone crashes often in the day especially when using Wi-Fi. There are moments that I can use Wi-Fi normally yet there are mostly moments that it crashes. I love what the OS and phone have to offer together, but the continuous crashing makes it unbearable after a while.
[Venue Pro General] raremage:
The answer for me was to replace the MicroSD with a Class2 card. For whatever reason the DVP doesn't seem to handle faster cards well; the higher the class of card, the more frequent the issues.

Since replacing my card I have had minimal issues; the phone works great on a daily basis for me.
[Venue Pro General] MrAdelphi02:
Took me ages to get a Class 2 card (kept receiving a class 4 card in the post) but will hopefully get the card in the post this weekend..

I only have crashes when I use WIFI, and it tends to happen with big files (such as computer games or HD youtube videos), so long as I dont use wifi the phone works 100% of the time...

With wifi on, the phone will lock up 100% of the time.....haha
[Venue Pro General] uKnowChinchilla:
It's great to hear that your DVP is working great. I would love to take the chance of replacing the MicroSD card, but I'm not sure I want to void the warranty as of yet. So I'm trying to find solutions while maintaining the 1 year warranty. I've also heard of some DVP users having conflicts with their replaced MicroSD cards after they updated to NoDo. So that's another reason why I haven't made the switch as well.
[Venue Pro General] uKnowChinchilla:
Haha! I know exactly how you feel. The phone works great without Wi-Fi but with it on, I feel like throwing the phone out the window because of the constant lockups. Let us know how things work out when you use the Class 2 card while Wi-Fi is on =D
