Hey Folks,

I've installed WolfBreak's CM 6.1.3 and it's working great. Unfortunately, the alarm has the most annoying tones. How do I got about getting some additional tones into the alarm clock program?

Thanks!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aval1392:
What i do is normally install a free alarm clock from the market. Many of these allow you to choose a certain ringtone or a certain mp4. So no more annoying tones =)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techngro:
Everything was going fine. I had gotten to the step 13:

Step 13. Wait for message: “Forked ???? childs.”, it should take like 5 seconds.

Hit Menu->Reset Term and Terminal Emulator should exit. Then launch the Terminal Emulator, it should force close.

Step 14. Open up Terminal Emulator again, you should see “#” prompt, it means you have temporary root. Next we need to make root permanent.

I mistakenly closed the command prompt that I had used to push the files to the phone. Now when I go to the next step (terminal emulator on the phone) I see the # promtp showing temp root, but when I type the next command, it says adb: not found.

Should I just reboot and start all over?

Anyone knows if there's a compatible bluetooth digitizer pen that can be used with the Asus eee pad?

The Asus slate EP121 has one from Wacom and I was wondering if it'd be able to work with the eee pad's honeycomb?

Would be great to have a digitizer pen for those graphics/sketch apps. I can think of many more applications that would go well with a tablet with a digitizer.

Thanks for viewing :)

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GolfnWrx:
I seem to be search challenged, I cannot seem to find a ROM that has fastboot enabled with a valid link to it's location.

I have done numerous reflashes today and I'm not having luck - I search pages looking for links to low rev ROMs that have fastboot enabled, most don't mention it so I don't know if it's there or not. I have fully flashed 3 times today, none had it enabled...or I couldn't get a valid flash.

If you have a link to the ROM, Radio and SPL so I can enable flashboot on my G1 I'd appreciate it.

I have found several walkthroughs, but the liks to the roms are dead. I've also noticed several sites that used to carry the ROMs, no longer carry G1 ROMs.

IIRC JF 1.4 and 1.5 both had it, but I haven't seen either of those in my searching.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
Are you sure you've understood what fastboot is?

Fastboot doesn't depend on a specific ROM, but on a SPL (bootloader) which has the fastboot protocol enabled. You need to install a different SPL. Look for 1.33.2003 or 1.33.2005.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GolfnWrx:
When I try and run fastboot, it ALWAYS says waiting for device.

Okay, I get it, need a new boot loader...sorry I didn't see that anywhere else...Thanks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhkr234:
Did you boot the phone into fastboot? A normal boot will NOT enable fastboot, its a special mode.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GolfnWrx:
No, I boot the phone into fastboot mode Power+back or Power+camera.

the problem is that after failing to load Trout, I reverted back to 1.6 stock and that killed the loader that I had...I didn't realize that the SPL was what was responsible for fastboot.

I had misunderstood a developer who said it was the ROM...he meant the SPL ROM and I didn't make that connection.

Thanks for the reply, I'm all fixed now once I figured that out :D

[Captivate General] iliatay:
hey guys i've been avidly lurking in xda for a year now and running my cappy on GR-11 and I love it to death but my friend gave me his nexus S for free because he broke the simcard reader but i fixed it so now i have a free nexus S!! anyways i need to sell one of them but what should i keep? the cappy has awesome dev support and it can record 720p but the nexus is aosp andseems much more polished as a phone even with much less dev wsupport.

what should i go for? the main thing concerning me with keeping the nexus S is that it might not grow in dev support. is this true u think?

thanks, your friendly e-hood awesome man
[Captivate General] Markolic:
obviously keep the nexus S, its got much better software support
[Captivate General] Enhanced:
NS any day of the week.
[Captivate General] newter55:
Yeah, this is an easy one. Listen to those guys^^^^^.
[Captivate General] nybmx:
Before the official specs were released I said that once the Nexus S was available on AT&T I would snatch it up. That is until I realized that it had no external sd card slot. That is a huge deal breaker for me as I flash a ton of roms and keep all my music and backed up apks on there for convenience.

I absolutely love the captivate though and since it has such a large community of devs (I'm including I900 devs as well because how easy some things can be ported) I don't think I'll truly need a new phone for a long time.
[Captivate General] jerkysh:
duh....the nexus s....it's great for developing
[Captivate General] iliatay:
but the dev support for nexus S is much smaller than cappy and also i cant watch hd movies on NS :(
[Captivate General] s44:
Keep the Captivate. Why? Because the Nexus sells for more $.
[Captivate General] Fortune090:
Hahaha. I agree with this comment...

The Captivate with the new GB development that's booming still has amazing potential. Yeah, the NS already has GB, but the Captivate's still a great phone that's been cracked and tweaked in almost every way possible...

Sent from my Captivate.
[Captivate General] LNJ:
The Captivate devs will eventually move on now that the SGS II is here. So it's really up to you.

The NS is pretty new but dev support will keep growing for it. And it will get all the latest OS updates first!

Yeah, but the $ he gets from the Nexus will bring the SGS2 closer to his pocket. ;)
[Captivate General] diablo009:

[Captivate General] syl0n:
I would keep the Captivate purely because 16GB is not enough for me. Nexus S lacks a micro SD slot. But if you couldn't live without a FF camera or NFC (lol) then Nexus S.

[Nook Color General] hockeyfamily737:
Yes. If your Android phone is rooted, you can use wireless tether (free in the market). Depending on your phone, you may be able to tether via bluetooth as well. I use my Hero CDMA as a tether daily for internet as well as navigation and data transfer.
[Nook Color General] dzigns:
I'll second wireless tether, I have my Thunderbolt running wireless tether & my CM7 Nook connects without a hitch. I've heard Verizon is blocking wireless tether though, so you might have issues downloading it from the market if that's your carrier.

[Xoom General] alias_neo:
Mine was slow as heck at first but after a day or two it started running great in stock browser, it coincided with my installing flash but I highly doubt it's related.
[Xoom General] Bigmille:
You can got to Settings ---> Applications ---> Browser ---> Clear cache. Did this couple of days ago and the browser seems scroll much smother.

You can also set Enable plug-ins in Browser advance settings to on demand. this will stop browser automatically loading flash contents.
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
Yeh, like I said though, mine started slow and got faster, I didnt clear cache and didn't turn anything off or chance any settings, all I did was install flash. Weird, but I'm happy with the performance so far.

NEBZ!!!!! Glad you came to the dark side ;)
[Xoom General] willverduzco:
Astonishing how much this setting helps. I recently switched to that a few days ago and I can now enjoy XDA on my tablet.

(While I'm a huge proponent for using Opera Mobile on Android 2.x, I don't like it for Honeycomb because it doesn't follow the normal text selection conventions in the OS and it isn't (yet) HW accelerated to my knowledge. Barring XDA 2010 theme on the XDA site, I get much better performance from the HC stock browser than Opera Mobile when on my tablet.)
[Xoom General] muira:
Likewise, thanks for the tip on changing it to xda classic. Scrolling is much smoother on the stock browser now.
[Xoom General] halopower:
Thanks for all the advise and help really do appreciate it. I changed setting to classic and WOW makes a huge difference. I've had my xoom few weeks since it came out and love it. This was one of my complains because my brother owns an ipad and he uses my xoom to navigate through xda and always complains, now that is fixed :) Once Again THANKS ALL

The xda donate version (I thinks its offically called the premium app) works well on xoom.

[Xoom General] masterslacker:
i had the laggy xda site too after i installed flash. Once I set web pages to use plugins on demand, (settings -> advanced -> enable plugins -> on demand), thepages load much faster and scroll smoothly. I think it was all the flash-based ads that were making the browser slow down.

I've noticed this helped other sites as well, so if you are experiencing browser lag on other sites, try this method. Hope it helps!
[Xoom General] daveid:
I had a similar experience with my Acer A500. Thanks for the suggestion about using the classic theme. With the XDA 2010 theme even entering text was a laggy chore, and that is with plugins set to on-demand. Switching to the classic theme solved the lag, and has made posting much more pleasant. I will share this information over in our neck of the woods.

Also some of the dev's add in a script that wipes prior to the install. If your flashing a new version of the same rom just remove the script before you flash the rom and don't wipe. But it's done to reduce errors/force close issues.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidVicious:
OTA updates can be a multiple of things.. It can be applying a patch, it could be a radio update, it can be a firmware update aka OS. There can be an OTA that will require a data wipe. Usually you would see something like that let's say for example not that this is happening right now but let's just say we were on the Thunderbolt 2.2.1 Froyo and they updated us to Thunderbolt 2.3.1 Gingerbread then most likely it's going to be a full data wipe because it's more then a minor patch it's a whole OS and the file system would be changed example libs etc.. So you can't have old data mesh with new data that calls for certain things in the phone differently then Froyo did opposed to the way Gingerbread would.. Hope this helps!! On custom ROM's every ROM is different or unique in it's own way... Some have things that others don't, the DEV adds stuff or removes stuff and that will play a role in how the ROM itself will run or react... I'm trying to make this sound as simple as possible.. lol Anyways again hope this helped..

That's not necessarily true. My Mom's Epic went from 2.1 to 2.2.1 without wiping anything.
