Are you referring to the Sprint Navigation app?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weztcoazt:
Sorry my head was not in it cuz of the NFL draft...but yeah I'm talking about the sprint navigation app...nothing is wrong with the far home but I just feel like the sprint navigation is better...I just want to know if the sprint navigation will work well with cm7 nightly...n if so how do I go about getting it on my evo again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
No, Sprint Navigation requires Sense, which cm7 doesnt have.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayharper08:
Here is the Sprint Nav with Telenav integrated. Works flawlessly on my CM7. Just wipe dalvik/cache and flash the zip like you would a rom.

Or you can extract it using root explorer and just install the .apk in the app folder.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weztcoazt:
ok i tried to flash it like a rom and it was aborted...says to please swtch to edify scripting...if i do it will root explorer instead will it work or no
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
You need to flash an older version of clockworkmod recovery, or flash amon_ra 2.3.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayharper08:
If you have a file explorer you can unzip it. Once unzipped, open the system folder of the extracted file, then open the "app" folder. It will be the only folder there. The .apk will be in that folder. Just click on it and install. No flashing needed :)

Help please. Rooted a DX and installed Fission rom. Everything was perfect until late last night the user of the phone installed an alarm app that killed the headset speaker and mic on phone calls. Cant hear on calls or sound.

I returned to stock and unrooted/removed clockworkmod. Did a factory reset and still can't hear on calls or be heard.

Whats the possible problem? I did a D2 the same day and same rom and its working fine.

[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
Ok so I understand the general idea of CWM and love that I can do updates (rom and OS) and backup my entire system with it. I do not however understand a few things. If I for example backup my entire system while I am on 1.57 and then flash back to 1.26 or upgrade to 1.83, will I be able to restore my backup? Or will it restore my backup and throw me back to 1.57?

I really like wiping the entire sd card and starting from scratch ever so often with a clean install. I had many problems on the iPhone when doing fresh installs then restoring settings. It seemed that along with the settings would come anything bad or not functioning correctly. I am just worried that if I keep updating and flashing and loading different roms all the time, that my main partition will start to get loaded with unwanted junk and my filesystem will become "unclean".

What I would like to do, and I don't know if its possible, is to do a nandroid backup right now on 1.57, update to 1.83 and wipe everything so I have a clean install of 1.83, then restore my nandroid backup of all my exact settings and apps as if nothing ever happened. I am thinking that its not possible and the only way to do what I want is to flash to 1.27, wipe everything, update to 1.57, update to 1.83, then manually install every app again and set all my settings. <------Long, tedious, and stupid.

I also do not want to use TB because of some complaints I have recently been reading.
[Atrix 4G General] plasticglock:
I don't think this will do what you want. I have never had to use one of my nandroid backups, but my understanding is that they don't just back up settings they back up the entire install. So if you do a nandroid on 1.5.7 then update, then recover using your nandroid backup you will literally be back on 1.5.7 where you started.
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
what complaints have you heard about TB? I swear by that app, and it has never caused me problems and is one hell of a lot simpler a process than what you're suggesting. also I don't think that's how nandroid backup works. it makes an image so if u restore, you will go right back to the firmware you had when you backed up.

TB will save both your apps and your user settings. try it before you write it off.
[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
That's what I thought.
[Atrix 4G General] s1mpd1ddy:
I can vouch for TB being awesome. If all your concerned about is User apps, TB will back up all of that PLUS the settings for each app. You also get the choice to save the backup on your sd card, ext sd card, OR DropBox (recommend using it on WiFi). I currently have backups on all 3 hahaha
[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
Unfortunately I don't remember where I read the info but on one of these forums there was a whole thread where people were complaining of force closes on apps that were backed up and restored using titanium backup.
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
interesting. well i don't know if that would be really TB related because TB doesn't modify the program files in any way. maybe it has to do with freezing certain processes to get rid of bloatware.

for what it's worth, i've done full batch backups and restores onto fresh SBF flashes, and i haven't ever run into any problems.
[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
Ever?

If I do a full backup with TB what EXACTLY will it restore after I flash the stock sbf? All apps and settings for the apps? Will it save my game progress or system settings for the phone?

I was told that the market should restore all downloaded apps when you log into the phone for the first time. I've also been told that blur saves the system settings and restores them. I haven't found either of these to be for me.
[Atrix 4G General] bongd:
This is because people are doing what you've proposed. TB backs up programs and settings. But if you do a drastic change and then try to restore programs with settings for the old framework, it can cause really unexpected challenges which result in the Force Close error messages.

CWM takes a snapshot of EVERYTHING so you definitely wouldn't want to do a backup and try applying it to a different SBF flash. It wouldn't even boot most likely.

When backing things up in TB I just back up the app and NOT the settings. I'm also sure that when I do a batch restore of apps (and NOT their settings) that I don't introduce apps which aren't compatible with the new ROM I'm running.

We don't really have many options for the Atrix at the moment, so not lots of people should be encountering challenges like this. Both programs do exactly what they should. People just don't understand them. Hopefully this helps to clarify things because it can be a big frustration when you think you've backed things up but are really left either stranded without a backup, or you've applied a backup which completely obliterated your phone lol
[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
I love that last sentence and want it in my sig LOL

what's your explanation for just backing up the apps and not the settings?
[Atrix 4G General] JVogler:
Just a word of caution: Be extra careful where you store your backups. With how the atrix names phone sdcard and actual sdcard-ext is confusing to apps not updated recognize this. I've lost everything twice now because full backups go missing. Use the cloud or another computer to store them to be safe.

Has anyone restored a nandroid backup...with what results...does that just do the firmware, or do you get apps/data too? I still would like something similar to spb backup for WM...it took EVERYTHING into 1 self extracting, self installing file...I never lost anything with my years on WM and spb backup.

-sent from Atrix-
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
yes, i haven't ever. which i should have just said "have never" had any problems.

have you used TiBu before? you have options. you can batch restore app only, app + data, or data only, and when you do each you can select which apps to exclude/include. so if you want your savegames, your settings, etc, then you can restore the app data.

you can also batch backup/restore system settings separately, which I do not recommend if you are going to a new firmware as it may mess up settings since they will be from different versions.

if you do a whole batch restore of EVERYTHING without paying attention to what might be incompatible in a few firmware, of course you will run into problems. but a nandroid backup will not solve that either because you will just be re-imaging your phone with exactly what you started with in the first place.
[Atrix 4G General] JVogler:
Is that just an image of the firmware and nothing else...or do your settings and apps installed to internal phone memory get backed up along with it.
[Atrix 4G General] panflute:
full backup

I THINK I am understanding that Nandroid will take a picture of the phone - apps and ROM - and backup and restore the entire phone - which is EXACTLY what i am looking for.

If I am correct i assume there are directions somewhere here on how and where to do a full backup and also how to restore just in case.....

thanks for any info

As per the title really, anyone moving to this from the Nexus S and have useful thoughts or first hand experience of both and can offer a comparison from a user perspective?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bilhouse:
Yes I did.

It blows away the Nexus S in every aspect. The screen is better, the build quality is better, the performance is better, the speaker is better and the cameras are better.

The Nexus S feels like a 2 year old phone compared to this even though it only came out in December.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xspyda:
Thanks, that's encouraging - especially that you say the sound is better as I thought that was already quite acceptable on the Nexus S.

How about size wise? I've yet to get my hands on the S2 and I know it is obviously bigger than the Nexus S bit is it noticeably so in the hand would you say?

Probably too early to ask you opinion on battery life on comparison, right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khalid0u:
Currently an owner of the Nexus S i9023, I'm waiting till I have more info about the version who will hit France before rushing to buy it.

Eventhough the hardware shift is huge, I want to know whether there will be a big update of Android this summer or not before changing from a phone who will be the first to get said updates.

If yes, I'll wait till June before making my mind. Else, I'll probably go with the SGS 2 if I can find an NFC one.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
I don't own either device, but based on reviews the s2 battery is on par with the nexus s.

Size isnt too much of a matter! You will gert used to it, and the s2 is alot lighter thoinner than nexus, so it can fit in your pocket easier!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xspyda:
My main concern when it comes to size is how feasible one handed operation is. Often when out and about you just want to whip out your phone, check something and put it away again. Its not always convenient to free up both hands for this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ragiut1:
how does it compare with NS in terms of one-hand handling? can u reach the bottom buttons with ease, or do u have to adjust ur grip

bcoz NS is fantastic in one-hand handling

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android_master:
It's not that it feels like a 2 year phone,hell it even does not matter whether Nexus S was out in December or January.Nexus S was a single core phone while this one has a much powerful processor,better hardware in general.

As Google has done from Nexus 1,bring out it's latest updates along with a Nexus series.

N1 does that with 2.1,Nexus S done that with 2.3 & these two always get the latest & fastest updates.

There is no Android Smartphone OS version which utilizes dual core till now,there is no hardware/gpu acceleration throughout.As usual Google might announce a Nexus later this year{if N1 & Nexus S are to be followed} which might bring a dual core supported Android version.But yes till now 2.3.3{or even 2.3.4 available to Nexus} is a version which do not fully utilizes the great hardware power of all these dual cores from Samsung,Motorola,LG

I have a chance to play with SE Arc{t's actually of the same size as SGS 2} & man these phones are really big,moving from compact phone to tablet sized phones;)i
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fallenguru:
I'd like to know this as well. Even though I've got big hands the Nexus S feels like the outer limit sizewise. If the SGS2 is much larger I'm afraid I'd have to move the phone up and down in my palm to reach everywhere - not very practical.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
i'll move to SGS2 when the 1700 band version becomes available

I don't understand where this myth about android not supporting dual-cores came from, but if you read up you'll see that android uses the linux kernel 2.6.

Here is the highlight features of each linux kernel:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fallenguru:
Yes, Linux's been supporting SMP for ages, but ...

Is this also true for the relevant ARM architecture(s)? I've no idea how many multi-cpu and/or multi-core ARM machines there's even been before.

Does SMP still work in the heavily customised Android branch of the kernel?

Is it enabled in shipping kernels?

Is threading supported at the OS level?

Only for system apps or also for NDK apps?

Can regular Android apps (the ones written in Java) use multiple cores?

Do they need to be specially adapted for it?

Doesn't look that cut and dried to me, the Linux kernel alone is certainly not enough.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
it's a SGS2, what other reason do you need? :D

nothing else can compare to SGS2

it's currently the best of the best phone out there

that's the phone i've been waiting for all these years, and it has finally come true

now, the next milestone that can beat SGS2 is a phone that can read your mind, and is controlled by thoughts alone
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xspyda:
Lol, fair enough ;-)

Have to say in my book it's almost worth the upgrade for the accessory range and dev support alone! This phone has been out only days and already the scene is buzzing!
