Need to be replaced 16G memory chips, but. CPU already has the only non-erasable old 16G chip ID. we can only replace the new CPU. to re-write the factory version of the boot process, otherwise the CPU is denied write the boot process.

[EVO 4G General] Rakeesh_j:
There are two problems I have discovered with GV and Sprint number integration that you should know about before you switch, because it's a pain to turn this feature off (as I just did.)

If you need to use any service that must call you, and you must enter digits on the phone, it won't work. There's a problem with GV where if the other person starts the call to you, DTMF signals from your end are too distorted to register with any equipment that reads them.

Second, GV has a call record feature that is toggled by hitting the number 4. When it is toggled it announces to both you and the other person that the call is being recorded. This doesn't sound like a bad thing at first, but note that it can be triggered accidentally depending on you or the other person's voice through a phenomenon called talkoff. Talkoff is when a human voice mimics a DTMF signal for a very short time, but long enough to trigger some equipment to interpret it as a key press. The equipment that google uses is susceptible to this. When it is accidentally triggered, have fun explaining to the other person why they just heard the message "this call is being recorded."

More information about this problem can be found here: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/voice/thread?tid=7e30f066f09baf68&hl=en
[EVO 4G General] Chadk881:
Curious as to what you mean bye your first point... could you give an example of what kind service would cause this..

Sorry if this is a dumb question lol

[EVO 4G General] Rakeesh_j:
Like say you need an online bank to verify your phone number, they'll have an automated system that calls you, and then has you input a number to verify you own the phone number, when you do this it won't be able to recognize the numbers you key in.
[EVO 4G General] BHack:
This call record feature... this works at any time by hitting 4? How does that work if you are navigating a DTMF menu?
[EVO 4G General] qwerty017:
From the linked forum post it looks like the call record feature does not activate if you call out so hitting 4 in a calling tree would allow you to navigate. Haven't tried it myself but from reading the link it looks to be true.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarheeldan:
I am very excited about CM7 for the Bolt, but I know that I am going to miss the full-screen weather animations. I'm running CM7 on my Nook Color and absolutely love it, but these animations are the one thing I still really like on my Bolt from Sense, and that I prefer about my Bolt interface versus NC.

WidgetLocker has an option for enabling full-screen Sense weather animations even when you're using a replacement launcher, but this option seemed to go away (I couldn't find it anyway) when I ran the de-sense script written for Das BAMF. Is there any way to add whatever WidgetLocker looks for to a ROM so that this option is enabled? For instance, by pulling out parts from a Sense ROM and flashing them? Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iflip:
Try beautiful widgets. Load the clock/ weather widget on a homescreen and turn on the weather animation on in advance settings. They have their own unlock weather animations its not exactly like sense but somewhat similar. Its an experimental feature too. You can place the widget in a launcher app and use another. The animations will still kick in.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsDollar:
Yep. Beautiful Widgets is the app you need.
[Nexus S General] MarkusPO:
go to gps.conf

and edit this NTP_SERVER = NORTH-AMERICA.POOL.NTP.ORG

to

NTP_SERVER = EUROPE.POOL.NTP.ORG

this should update the timing of the nexus s theoretically improving the gps measurements? this is just a theory.

i'm currently logging a few things from the phone, and noticed a connection to the first url, which is 403 for those outside usa.
[Nexus S General] 0x6d6b:
How is the NTP server you use relevant to your GPS connection?

These pools are used to balance network resources and will get slightly better response times using a server near to your location. Thus it doesn't really matter if you use north-america.pool.ntp.org, europe.pool.ntp.org or even de.pool.ntp.org. You will just connect to a server near these locations.

ntpdate north-america.pool.ntp.org

23 Apr 09:21:06 ntpdate[5705]: adjust time server 74.117.214.3 offset 0.017349 sec

ntpdate europe.pool.ntp.org

23 Apr 09:21:44 ntpdate[5718]: adjust time server 85.17.207.62 offset -0.008624 sec

You see?
[Nexus S General] fallenguru:
Having an accurate time source is essential to proper GPS operation and the farther the NTP server used is away, the more inaccurate that gets. So switching to closer NTP servers has been shown to have a beneficial effect on other phones. That said, even the NA ones shouldn't make or break the GPS.

Now, if the NA NTP servers used by default deny service entirely, as the OP suggests, that might well be the reason for our non-working GPSs. Maybe there was a recent policy change at the NTP pool?

For a minute I thought you were on to something, but I can sync from that server just fine.
[Nexus S General] MarkusPO:
Interesting, I cannot. I see there are country specific ones that may be of use though.
[Nexus S General] 0x6d6b:
Well sure time is essential but a nearby NTP server can be as inaccurate as a far away one.

I don't think that the pools deny access based on geo location.
[Nexus S General] fallenguru:
FWIW, I used Windows XP's built-in NTP client of for convenience. Your log entry is strange, anyway, since 403 Forbidden is a HTTP error and NTP is a seperate protocol.

In theory, anything's possible, in practice -- assuming two properly configured NTP servers in the same stratum -- the closer one (in terms of the physical distance the signal has to travel and the number of routers it has to pass) will deliver the better results on average. (Trans-continental links are especially bad since they tend to have both high and unpredictable latency.)
[Nexus S General] mrbeardy:
I cant see how that would help much, as the signal broadcast by GPS satellites is a timecode from an atomic clock in each satellie, and all satellites are synchronised to the same time. The differences in the timecode from different satellites caused by a delay created as the radio waves travel different distances and it is these delays that are used to calculate your position by triangulation.

The NTP server might have a use with a-gps, but it will be much less accurate than the GPS clock.

[General Questions and Answers] pwhitson:
I installed z4root 1.3.0 and performed permanent root. I successfully rooted the Epic in about 1 minute. I have Superuser v2.3.6.1 installed. Reinstalled wireless tethering app and then start it. Then the pop up box appears "Start Tethering" but it returns to the screen "Press to start tethering".I disconnect the battery. Power back up and start Wireless Tether app. Message appears "Is your device rooted" So I perform permanent root again. Then start Wireless tether again, "Press to start tethering" and the message "Start tethering" and then returns to the screen

"Press to start tethering", This was working before a system update was applied and now I can not get it to work. Is my problem with Z4Root 1.3.0? Firmware version is 2.2.1
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
Try installing the latest version of busybox with the busybox installer attached.
[General Questions and Answers] pwhitson:
I have Wireless_Tether 2.0.7 is that okay? As for Busybox it can not install because Superuser. I opened Superuser but could not find where I would allow Busybox to be installed. Sorry. Is there another utility that would allow me to root my phone. I know the Sprint update screwed this up as it was working fine before.
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
You could root your phone using on of the following attached files. I hope they help.:) I know I uploaded Z4root but it is an updated version so it may work better than the one you used. But still try the Universal root app first. I also added the beta version of wireless tether (2.0.8 beta 1), so you could try it and see if it works.
[General Questions and Answers] Leeboy:
Try turning off the phone, then boot into recovery, goto advanced then click on "fix permissions" and wait for it to finish. Go back and reboot the phone. Now try running "wireless tether" again. Make sure that if U have "Superuser" installed, U include "Wireless Tether" in the permissions list. If you are indeed ROOTED, then U should'nt have any other problems. I use this program all the time with midNIGHT 5.2 Rom with no problems at all. Good Luck;)

>>>DO NOT USE v2.0.8 (it won't ruin ur phone but a lot of people have had problems with that version on the Epic. Use 2.0.7 and make sure that U use channel 1 in the settings. Otherwise the phone & computer will randomly disconnect.)
[General Questions and Answers] Leeboy:
Most of the time that U get a OTA from ur carrier, you will lose root. I think U need to go to the Epic section of XDA. Your answers will be better answered there;)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huggs:
You can use Titanium Backup to back up and restore your apps, another backup/restore program I've heard good things about is My Backup, but I've never used it myself. I don't think you'll be able to do the equivalent of a NANDroid backup where everything is restored just as you left it, you'll probably have to set some stuff back up, such as email accounts, homescreen layouts, etc. but at least you won't have to search the market for each app and lose your app data.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingdazy:
I have a n00b-like question, and I am ashamed. ;)

In apps, for many of the current roms, there is a "Power Control Widgets Config" app.

WTF does it do?

I would have thought that it would change settings in the "Power Control" android widget, but it does Nothing for me...

Or perhaps in the notifications dropdown settings? Nope, not there either.

I've never seen it do a damn thing.

What critical piece of obvious information am I missing?

Flame away. :)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
I think it may actually be a widget. I haven't seen it in a rom, but it could be. Try long pressing it on a home screeen and see if anything happens.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
That app works for me. It is to configure certain settings in the notification toggle Widgets. I use it to set the sound to do silent/vibrate/sound. I also set the flashlight to normal with that, and also the brightness settings.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingdazy:
Ah! Indeed sir, you are correct.

Since my dropdown does not have the brightness toggle, I did not make the connection. But since I was able to change the toggle color, I can see that this does indeed config that feature.

Is this a scenario where I have to be editing some .txt file to change the toggles?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Yes, exactly. If you wanted to use the brightness toggle, or any toggle, you'd need to edit the widget.txt file (if you're on sense). If you add the brightness.toggle, and the flashlight toggle, then the app will configure how those toggles act for you.
[XPERIA X10 General] gregeberts:
I have seen a couple of stories on the news about the Iphone storing user locations and also stories about the cops being able to 'extract' user data from the phone without the owner's permission. I am wondering if the same is true for android phones, and if there are any apps available to encrypt data to prevent such things.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
You optionally turn on the location data setting under "location& security", the setting is "use wireless networks". If you leave it on, anonymous location data is collected. I only put it on when I need a stronger gps lock.
[XPERIA X10 General] shchenok:
I was reading about this JUST this morning, I will direct you here regarding the info extraction

Oh God, here we go. This is no different than the anonymous CyanogenMod reports, or any online services that we use every day. We should be worrying about the Patriot Act and Facebook, not anonymous Google reporting.

Did you read what he posted? The thread about celebrites and police being able to use them more freely?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1045464

They can take a scan of EVERYTHING on your phone, from passwords, pics, internet files, etc....

I agree with you though, the patriot act is insane. Especially since I'm canadian so I'm seeing it from the outside looking in
[XPERIA X10 General] kxhawkins:
Right, I thought you had debunked the police thing by clarifying "anonymous" data. Obviously the police can't do anything to your phone without a warrant, and if they had one, they could physically access you phone so that would be irrelevant anyway.

Now, sometimes the system does fail, but that's outside the scope of this dicussion. As stated in the linked post, you have a reasonable expectation of privacy regarding your phones content, which excludes it from unlawful search and seizure. That's in the US anyways, I'm not familiar with Canadian law.

They can always pull call, sms, and mms logs from the carrier, but again- only with a warrant.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
From what people were mentioning though, they seem to be trying to make the use of the celebrite machine much easier (perhaps without warrant, as in your example of the "patriot act").

I was just saying that from reading that link he posted, it seems as if people will gladly hand over their civil liberties like candy for the illusion of security.

It's scary how open and willing people are to giving up their freedom, that's all.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Realone:
Now, you're talking about the US. Don't forgot there's a world outside the US too. There are countries out there where the government can do a lot more than you would like them too. Things that go even beyond the Patriot Act (yes, that's possible).

I've heard a lot of good things about Vlingo for Android, so I thought I'd give it a try. I'm using a rooted CDMA HTC Hero running Cyanogenmod 7 (2.3 Gingerbread) which is paired with a Jawbone Icon bluetooth headset. Vlingo seems to work well, but I have some issues with the "In Car" mode. Whenever I hang up from a call, it exits into the contacts menu, leaving the "In Car" mode completely and requiring me to reach up to my dock to restart the program.

I know to some, complaining about this may sound lazy, but the point of the "In Car" mode is to be entirely hands-free, leaving me to focus on driving, working, etc. Does anyone know of a solution for this problem?
