Try selecting the icons through astro file manager
[Android Themes] zergling76:
Trying that i ran into another problem. When i select change icon>custom icon, the default application is gallery. I tried settings>applications>manage>restore defaults for launcher pro and it does not seem to reset what i choose the icons with. when i try to reset defaults in gallery the button is grey so it doesn't register.

Also i tried uninstalling Launcher Pro and re-installing it. No dice. :confused:

Can anyone help me with this problem? It synced the first 20 or so pictures and contacts but wont continue after that.

When I restart sync and after I removed the account and logged in again it still wont work.

Thanks ahead of time

I was hoping that this would be the case. However its been almost a week and still the same issue. I have my contacts I just like having the pictures synced.

It happened when I went back to Bionix after trying trigger. I may just reflash if I have time.

Did you try gingerbreak? I couldn't get anything else to work, but gingerbreak worked like a charm!
[General Questions and Answers] alarican:
I am in the exact same situation!

I've been looking everywhere for a root for my Motorola Charm. The specs on my machine are the same as for rntscott's.

I've gotten exactly the same error codes from the same 3 root utilities. Also, super1click also uses the gingerbreak exploit, and I tried rooting it with both separate exploits within super1click, still no love.

So if anyone out there has any suggestions for us, or if this has been resolved in another thread, please point me in that direction?

Thank you so much. Right now I'm frustrated at how little I can do with the pittance of phoneboard memory, and I actually want to USE my phone to do neat things with. Thank you!

I want to completely wipe my Atrix and start fresh. I have done a bunch of different things and I know there is some residual crap left on the phone. I backed up all of my pictures and music along with apps using Titanium. I tried searching for the last hour or so and keep getting an error message. TIA!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwcall:
I just purchased my Atrix today, and from what I've been able to find in a short time, this might be what you're looking for:

http://www.techofweb.com/technology/flashing-sbf-atrix-4g.html

and the .sbf file for 1.8.3 here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056268

After the upgrade, you can use the "reset to factory defaults" within the phone Settings

then follow: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1017373

I came across these while trying to get a clean 1.8.3 install on this new phone (auto-update wasn't find anything past 1.5.2). Good luck!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] detroitjb:
I'm wondering the same thing.....So if I wanted to go back to COMPLETELY stock, where I first got it from the store, I would flash to 1.26, update to 1.57, update to 1.83, and then I would have a stock upgraded phone? From that point I could gingerbreak, root, etc.

Can you use the 1.8.3 sbf to go to a brand spanking new OS/load? Or does it just upgrade the phone? Basically, if I want to start from scratch, do i have to go all the way back to 1.2.6?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwcall:
Did a bit of msg editing there, but I've only been able to get the sbf file to upgrade so far. But upgrading to 1.8.3 then resetting seems okay to me. :)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] juanfers:
What are the advantages and benefits of both of these options?

If I'm constantly switching ROMs what would be a better option in order not to install of restore every single app when the ROM is changed?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sathkartha:
Hi,

1)Ext2,Ext3 are external partitions you create on your sd card in order to link or move apps from the phone and free up internal memory.This is the case for Eclair(2.1) or lower only.

2)Froyo onwards,there is a native apps2sd which would automatically be able to move apps to the FAT portion of your sd card which means there is now no need for any partitions to be created and not recommended either.

As you can now see,point 1 above is born out of necessity arising from the inadequacy in the older operating system!

Trust this clarifies.

...............do press the Thanks button if this helps...............
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] juanlec:
app2sd

hi i actualy use link2sd and works perfects for me i have fat32 part and i can move almost any app. not the system apps. i dont ever try apps2sd because i olnly use this app in all my roms i use. cheers
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ra3al:
I agree with sathkartha, but would like to mention one advantage of installing an app on an Ext2 / 3 / 4 partition:

When mounting the SD card on a computer, only the FAT(32) partition is mounted on the computer. The Ext2 / 3 / 4 partitions remain mounted on the phone, allowing for running apps installed on such partitions while the FAT partition is mounted on the computer.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] juanfers:
Thanks for the info guys, now as far as changing roms every time one is released, will the apps installed on the EXT partition remain as long as they are non permanent running apps or widgets, like games and/or apps.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Ray_jai:
I would also like to know, how can i relink and restore ext2 apps once i install a new rom?

Can someone please direct me to the a step by step guide on how to Root and put CM7 on the Nexus S i9020a variant? Most of the stickies are for the T-mobile version and Its getting to be a bit confusing on which guide to follow. Please help this noobie!!!
[Nexus S General] jruweaver:
use gingerbreak then rom manager it's that simple :)

[Nexus S General] jruweaver:
Quick note once you install CM7 do not use the 2g/3g feature it will break your 3g
[Nexus S General] doug0365:
Break 3g? as in damage it permanently? Thanks for the link for gingerbreak so basically that will root my nexus s then I can install CM 7 with out any special instructions since it has different radio compared to the tmobile version?
[Nexus S General] jruweaver:
i used gingerbreak then rom manager to install clockwork recovery and CM7. Do some reading the 3g bug for I9020A has been discussed a few times. Just stay away from the 2g/3g toggle and everything will be fine. I don't think it permanently breaks it just is a pain in the A to fix. I have a I9020A and this was the simplest way I've found.
[Nexus S General] toddkp:
don't we have to flash a clockwork compatible kernel first, before flashing cm7?

Also, doesn't clockwork rom manager fail on sns? I have cwr from the main stickies, but rom manager doesn't see it (it works), and can't download roms, unless cwr from rom manager, which I heard fails.

So I downloaded CM7 7.0.2 - and gapps - flashed in order (nandroid first) and voila! no hastle! This ROM is great!
[Nexus S General] jruweaver:
No, those are the only steps i took
[Nexus S General] asafru:
CM7 comes with its own AOSP kernel. Just flash the rom, you'll get the kernel bundled. (Of course you can always use a great kernel from the developers thread) don't forget to flash gapps.
[Nexus S General] Carne_Asada_Fries:
He means don't use the 2g/3g toggle widget as that will cause some problems, it hasn't been fixed yet. If you do want to change it though, do it manually through the settings.
[Nexus S General] drleospaceman:
I tried using gingerbreak on my i9020a but it runs for longer than 15 mins so I guess it doesn't work. What are my other options for rooting?

edit: I guess it's because I installed 2.3.6.. is it possible to downgrade easily?
[Nexus S General] Matridom:
Follow one of the root guides, all you really need to do is unlock the bootloader and install Clockwork Recovery.

Once that is done, download the zip for cm7 and use CWM to flash it.
[Nexus S General] drleospaceman:
Thanks :cool:
[Nexus S General] Mr Kyle:
Exactly the steps I took. Took all of 10 minutes

fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot recovery

Install .zip from SD

Select CM7

reboot system
[Nexus S General] Matridom:
Agreed, but it's a matter of getting the correct CWM image for our phones. Also, for people who are setting up their phones for the first time, the drivers needed for fastboot need to be installed, fastboot/SDK needs to be downloaded etc...

Hence why i referenced the rooting guides.
[Nexus S General] drleospaceman:
Which recovery img file should I use from here?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=988686&highlight=i9020a

Thanks

edit: nevermind, I guess the color names are just cosmetic?
[Nexus S General] crump84:
Yep, it's just the color you want your recovery to be. I flashed the cyan a couple of days ago for somebody else and no issues.. typical clockwork recovery
[Nexus S General] drleospaceman:
So I flashed the recovery file, but when I boot into recovery now, there's just the triangle with the ! in it and nothing happens.. did I do something wrong?

edit: reflashed it and it works
[Nexus S General] crump84:
How did you flash it? That's the stock recovery.. should be 'fastboot flash recovery nameof.img' without quotes obviously.
[Nexus S General] akurttr:
somebody after reboot no CWR on recovery use this solved your problem

Ok. 2 topics here.. both dealing with liberty 2.0.1 gb. 1st in settings/accounts, I cannot add anything. It opens and closes whenever I click on accounts. Tried to uninstall and reinstall Facebook and twitter, no luck. Any ideas? Next, I've tried from liberty toolbox, 3 times, to install v.03 and it downloads, goes through the install, says successful but upon reboot, it still says v.01. Any ideas on either would be great. Thanks.
[Droid X General] zwade01:
The account problem is a known issue. Jrummy is aware of this.

As for the .3 saying ".1", he just forgot to change the build.prop. You do in fact have .3.

If you have any other questions about anything to do with Liberty, you should head over to droidforums.net and there is a whole section dedicated to Liberty ROM. Lots of people with the same questions/concerns are there and you can get lots of answers and great info.

[Captivate General] xredjokerx:
This feature is called Back light notification or BLN for short. It was developed by neldar and was included in the kernels developed by the captivate devs.

So far, neither existz nor xcal has added support for BLN, and I am unsure if it is up to neldar to update his code or up to the captivate devs. This is one of the features that prompted me to downgrade back to 2.2.1.

[Captivate General] tcortinag:
I think is due updates in kernels for i9000 2.3.3, because it has been already implemented for CM7 Kernel, so I hope it's implemented in Talon soon.
[HD2 General] gGrime:
Ok, so I've got quite a bit of a problem here. Please keep in mind that I'm relatively new to this. I've only flashed my 3G Slide before to CM7 using Clockwork so this whole Windows thing is new for me.

I recently purchased a used HD2. The previous owner had some custom Windows ROM on there, and I wanted to put Android on it being a fan of the platform. More specifically, CM7. So I managed to get Magldr on it, Clockwork on it, and CM7 on it. Here's where the trouble starts. When I boot CM7 the touch screen no longer works. It doesn't respond at all. After some searching, it appears that this is a hardware problem, so I have to send it to HTC.

I have been looking everywhere for stock stuff, but every thread tells me something different. I "think" I got this right, but when I boot the phone with the Vol Down, I get -

PB81120 HX-B3

SPL-2.08.0000 8G XE

MicroP(LED) 0x05

MicroP(TOUCH) 0x50

I found a thread where someone said this was correct and it was in fact stock. Then, 30 seconds later I found a thread where someone said THIS was stock -

PB81100HX-BC

SPL-1.42.000 XE

MicroP(LED) 0x05

MicroP(Touch) 0x30

And the 20 seconds later, I find ANOTHER post saying that THIS is stock -

pb8 ss-b3

spl-2.10.0000 8g xe

microP(LED) 0x05

MicroP(Touch) 0x40

So, what the hell is the deal? Does it depend on the ROM? Can someone point me in the right direction please? I'm completely lost.
[HD2 General] stevedebi:
It doesn't make any difference what the various places say. Go to the HTC site and download the correct ROM based on you serial number. Extract the .nbh file from the executable you download, put it in the root directory of an SD card with the name LEOIMG.nbh. Put your phone into bootloader and it should ask you to install the OS. Then you will have the correct ROM, SPL, and Radio for your device.

EDIT: You need to update your profile to say where you live and who is providing your phone service; that way you will receive more specific guidance to your questions.
[HD2 General] gGrime:
That's much more specific, thanks. So the serial will be the S/N under the battery on the phone I'm assuming?

Edit: I cannot find the official list of ROMS on HTC's site. When my phone is selected, under downloads, all it lists is the user manual. I'll keep looking in the meantime, but if someone could give me a specific link that would be great.

Edit2: After looking some more, all I can find are ROMs for other countries. All of them say "Not for use with T-Mobile(US)." I go to the US site, and it doesn't give me ANYTHING for ROMs.

Edit3: I decided to search the T-Mobile site instead, and there it was. So now I'm going to take your advice from above. Wish me luck.
[HD2 General] gGrime:
Bumping with an update.

So I found it and got it on there. I still have one question though. What's the red text in the bottom left corner during boot? Is that supposed to be there on a stock phone? It doesn't seem like it.

Picture: http://i54.tinypic.com/107p3t3.jpg

Edit: One more question. When I flashed the official HTC .nbh to my phone, it erases everything right? What is this Task 29 program I keep hearing about?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
any spl that ends 0000 is a stock spl. (not necessarily YOUr stock spl, but stock none the less.)

tmous stock spls are 2.08.0000, 2.10.0000 and 3.03.0000 (and possibly 3.05.0000 i think ive seen mentioned)

you can only get tmous roms from the t-mobile.com website,(or from various mirrors, but only officially from t-mobile.com) they arent on the htc website.

the red text is known as the RGD info, R for radio version G for protocol (dont ask me) and D for rom version, yes they should be there, they are always there on a working winmo rom, stock or cooked.

when you flash the flashing process performs a task 28, which only formats certain areas of the nand. task29 formats all of it, (well all the rom area anyway, not radio or splashscreen)

the reason its done is when you flash a new rom, if its smaller than teh original, some old data can be left sticking out at the end, which can occasionally cause instability,

Thats the theory, in practice its very rare, however it can be usefull to reset the rom area when issues have occured, especially after playing with android nand roms, which build multiple partitions. Personally i havent task29'd in about a year.

Many people offer it as step 1 in solving any problem, regardless of the problem, which i think is a bit extreme, and nearly always only works because you have to reinstall everything, and not really solving anything itself.
[HD2 General] gGrime:
Thank you so much for clearing all of that up. I am going to take it down to T-Mobile tomorrow to see what they can do about it. Is there anything I should tell them? Because certainly they'll ask me why the phone is still at the tutorial portion as if it's the first time it has booted up. I'm assuming I'll just tell them I did a factory reset? I just don't want to get turned away because I "tampered with the phone."

Thanks again, this has been a huge learning experience for me. I'm more of a computer guy, and I've been trying to get into working more with phones.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
enter bootloader, and so long as it says one of the stock spl's i mentioned above, and it is running a stock rom from tmobile, then it will be fine. Playing dumb is always a good idea, too. Yes say you tried a hard reset.
[HD2 General] stevedebi:
I've not had to take mine back to stock, but now that you mention it I believe it may use IMEI rather than S/N.

http://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade/

I list the page that includes several devices.

EDIT: It is indeed IMEI.

[Epic 4G General] murso74:

[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
But according to the article the carriers can differ the use of their own tethering services and the use of tethering that Google wanted to be allowed in Android, basically even if it isn't on the market it's less people using the tethering and makes it easier to pinpoint and cut people off.
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
A) Sprint will likely follow suit

B) I didn't even know it was available in the market lol.
[Epic 4G General] treyxazn:
Hmm I wonder how they would go about doing so, and am curious if they are able to if we have removed carrierIQ?
[Epic 4G General] Overstew:
Sprint's the only company that hasn't followed in the major two's footsteps so far.

First being encrypted locked boot-loaders. Not one phone has been so encrypted that it's impenetrable. Then second being this. I think Sprint's taking the route of T-Mobile and going to support AOSP to the fullest. Of course, it's wishful thinking but on the other hand, it does appear to be the case...for now.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
I would lie to know the source of info in that article stating that they can tell when you are tethering. I don't believe that is true. Data should be data. There was another article out and this was not stated, just the block. That is achieved by the market lkooking for the carrier's signature and not showing certain apps, like Verizon's NFL app to Sprint or At&T.
[Epic 4G General] imjimmy:
Sorry for the newbie question, but does anyone know how to remove the carrier IQ? It seems that if that is not there then one cannot be detected tethering.

I am a new EPIC user and rooted my phone using the oneclick method and RFS filesystem. Basically rooted just for tethering my tablets to my phone for occassional net access. So how do I go removing sprint's IQ? TIA!
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Yup. Put on a ROM that has it removed. Read OPs in development ROMs
[Epic 4G General] Longcat14:
I had to post here.

I noticed this, and when I went on the website to install it, it said I couldn't "Carrier blocks the install."

I go on my phone, fire up the market, and it lets me install it from there.

So apparently, T-Mo just wants me to download it from my phone, not from their website.

Whatever, I didn't even know that there was a website for the market till like a week ago. xD
[Epic 4G General] babystewie:
Currently, putting a rom on is the only way to remove it.
[Epic 4G General] styles420:
There its also the factor of how much data is used - generally, a tethered device like a computer or game console would use more data than the phone by itself. If Sprint sees an unusual amount of data being downloaded, they might be able to consider that proof enough (just speculation, I'm not an expert but it is plausible)
[Epic 4G General] darksideauto:
i think sprint cares just a little less because their data plans are truly unlimited. my phone is my only source of internet. i use it to download movies and games and everything else. i use about 9-30Gb of data a month. and 've been doing it for over a year. no one has terminated my contract or throttled my data speeds or anything. they put up with it as long as i pay my bill.
