until we get a custom recovery

Ok then we must wait for that :cool:

@saprano614:

Why do people thing that CM7 needs a recovery?

THERE IS NO NEED FOR A RECOVERY ON GEN8.

If you get someone to compile the CM7 with all the specifics for the gen8 ( f.ex. display via usb ) and some other things it is easily done, as $auron has allready proven with UrukDroid.

So please all stop wining about a recovery.
[Gen8 General] Mr. Clown:
Moved to proper forum.
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
Thanks for enlighting us/me:D

I want to learn about android developement (at the moment i test solune's Urukconfig),

could you tell me: what is an recovery? (I dont think its a recovery what recovery you data/apps/media like on a pc:confused:.)
[Gen8 General] fzelle:
"The Recovery" is kind of an extended bootmenu for the devices where you can flash new ROMs or make a backup so that you can get back to where you are.

Normally it also comes with alot of custom scripts for root, displaydensity,cleaning caches, memhacks etc.

This is needed on other devices because they don't habe a SDE.
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
Oh thank you i didnt know that;):)

Okey, but if thats true i've another question:

Why nobody test some Roms from other Tablets/Phones on our Gen8?:confused:
[Gen8 General] sayid-yugi:
It's true we have SDE that let us use UrukuDroid !!

That mean we can have other versions of roms like Cyanogenmod 7 or 6

Why nobody test some Roms from other Tablets/Phones on our Gen8?

this is good question ,,

why we don't try other roms like HTC HD2 !! It uses many many roms !!
[Gen8 General] cajl:
impossible to install cm7 with the SDE
[Gen8 General] Solevis_FR:
Impossible is not French ;)
[Gen8 General] fzelle:
@cajl:

That's not true.

CM7 is just one of many kernels done on the google basiscode.

If you could get the display to work and get the drivers of the other stuff in there it is just the work to get the initramfs to do the wireing of the partitions.

So if some of the cracks from the cm team would start with a "port" they would probably be ready before the end of the week.
[Gen8 General] willowave:
I know, why don't one of you send the Cyanogenmod guys your Archos so they can get it done? lol
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
Thats a good idea:D

I emailed them, when them response me, i report it here:)
[Gen8 General] sayid-yugi:
I think this is the best thing you have done in your life :p >> joking

Thanks bro and we'll wait for your feedback,,
[Gen8 General] gbohm:
cm7 is not ''just'' a kernel and we have no indication how long it will take the cm7 for sgs is in the making for month and they have some great devs

it could be easy but to be honest i would bet money that we will never have a stable cm release
[Gen8 General] fzelle:
You are partially right, but the kernel part is the harder one to port, if that is done ....

But you are right with timing.

Even on my milestone it took them so long and roms like froyomod are alot more stable.
[Gen8 General] caseym:
I would gladly do this!
[Gen8 General] caseym:
So can someone please explain why we don't need a custom recovery? Is it possible then to make a nand backup from the SDE??? If so, how?

I'm confused...the greatest feature about having a custom recovery is the ability to image/backup and restore. I've not seen a way to do that in the Archos SDE yet...
[Gen8 General] fzelle:
A custom recovery is not needed for installing CM7.

You could easily install CM7 with the SDE method if it would have been ported to the Archos.

Thats what we are talking about in this thread.

If you want/need the recovery for nandroids it is something completely different.

That can't be done atm with the sde.

But $auron is sitting on a solution for that.

So please don't mix those two things.
[Gen8 General] caseym:
OK gotcha. It just seemed like people were talking like the SDE was a replacement for custom recovery. Thanks for clearing it up!
[Gen8 General] LeoNg628:
Oh, really? it is so exciting news for hear that CM7 can be install without custom recovery....but they still not yet ported to Archos....:(
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
Yep, we have to live with that..

Even the first android device from archos (A5IT, i have it:)) hasn't got an ROM

(Okey it has a extremly buggy version of an Froyo Rom:D)

See me thread about this and about spend a little money to promote developement on gen8;)

as long as you keep playing x264 avc main profile1 in mp4 container (the videos downloaded from you tube) your phone will play them fine. as soon as you play an xvid video, the phone will not be able to play mp4 video properly and videos will get suck while playing.

possible fix, restart the phone.

i can't access my home screen,my setting to reset my phone, i can't do anything because the errors are keep on reappearing,please help me guys,i triedto restart it again,removed the battery,but it doesn't work.

im using Garmin Asus A10 please help me guys:(
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Your Launcher has Force Closed. Try holding down the home button to access your task manager, and see if you can access settings from there. You may find that if you pull the battery and restart several times you are lucky enough to get it working once, where you can get into settings and change away frrom ADW.

I seem to encounter something similar everytime I try and use ADW, although the majority of people love it.

if you have applied a theme or mod which is not compatible with ADW this will cause it. If you can get into recovery, a reflash of your kernel (if possible) may fix the problem.

Good luck!
[Droid X General] stevefxp:
You sound more like a heart surgeon than a software engineer....wow!

Unless you have a wall charger you might as well stop what youre doing, so you dont risk killing the patient. If you were connected via USB to your PC then this is exactly where the problem lies. You prolly do not have enough juice in the battery to do anything. An easy test of this would be press the volume down, camera, and power buttons all at the same time. This should throw you into the bootloader, and if you do not have juice in the battery it should tell you that the battery is low and cannot program.

The ONLY way I have been able to get my DX to power up in this condition is to connect it to a wall charger and go from there. As a side note I invested $60 and bought an Energizer Energi 2000K power pack. It comes with a standalone battery, tips for every conceivable device, and wall/car charger. All in one small handy pack. A must have for all us geeks!

[Droid X General] tsfarrell:
I thank you for the post. It is clear my battery is discharged. This is why I used the USB splice procedure I found on this and other websites to jumpstart and flash, which works just fine. I rather suspect that, once I have the charger, it will not solve the problem. Rather, I will just be stuck charging externally. Some have solved this issue by reflashing an SBF (which I did). Others by installing new PC-based Motorola USB charging drivers. These are not compatible with Windows 7 and anyway my problem persists even when charging from AC adapter.

I hope what you surmise is correct. However that would reveal an immense flaw in the phone. Cannot: cannot charge up when battery completely discharged. I have trouble believing this is the case.

For now, I am having to continue to use the USB cable splice just to make crucial phone calls, as this is my only phone. Otherwise, my poor Droid X remains off and in a safe place. I don't believe the spliced/hacked power interface hurts the phone at all ... but it probably is not very good for the battery. However, occasional phone calls are a necessity. I am in utter withdrawal not being able to text and do all the other non-voice things I am accustomed to.

Because I have read a number of posts where people found themselves in my situation even though they had not rooted their phone ... in some cases after upgrading to Android 2.2, in some cases not ... I am really wondering if it could be true the Droid just can't cope at all with a depleted battery. Unless one uses an external charger, the battery depends on having a running operating system to charge. The OS seems to require the battery to have some power itself in order to charge. Not exactly a classic "deadlock" situation but something like it.

O, woe is me. Wish I were a surgeon ... I could afford to just buy a new Droid X and forget about all this mess. Got this one from Verizon for just $70 -- they would charge me hundreds for a replacement.
[Droid X General] tsfarrell:
SOLVED! (for me anyway)

This is so typically stupid. One can go to extremes and the problem is so OBVIOUS!!!!!

I was using the wrong AC/USB adapter. Like everybody else I have about a billion of these things now and they all look just alike. I almost didn't even bother to do this, but did go look through my drawer of chargers and located the Motorola one. As soon as plugged in, the thing started to charge right up. I removed all the temporary wires from the battery, put it back into the Droid X, put on the cover, and it is currently charging right back to where it was.

(I am glad however that I spent the $8.00 for the external wall charger, because a Verizon tech did verify for me that the battery has to have some minimal charge in it for the phone to charge at all. Thus, if the battery were every to totally discharge, an external charger might be a good idea.)

This kind of stupidity is so typical in the computer field. Once, when I was in college and programming FORTRAN for the biochem department, I wasted a whole weekend slaving over what turned out to be just two variable names joined into one, where there was not a comma at the end of one line ... blah blah blah.
[Click General] SkL_opt:
For all having problems making root/recovery/flash like I did I'm writing some things I did do get it going:

(1st time flashers) All the steps

On tattoo:

- Boot on your stock recovery and wipe cache then factory reset.

- Reboot

On PC:

- Install HTC Sync on your PC and optionally install Android SDK Tools. Update SDK Tools with SDK Manager.

- Download latest 1Click update by tenis and extract it to C:\ so you have rtattoo on hard disk root.

- Download the latest cyanogenmod and gapps for your device and put it on the root of your sdcard.

On tattoo:

- Select USB Debugging Mode ON to Application/Development

- Connect tattoo to PC and select HTC Sync

On PC:

- Try to run "adb devices" from (c:\rtattoo\adb.exe) on command prompt, it must show your device attached, if it says that adb is deprecated you can replace it with the one on SDK Tools you've installed

- Close terminal and hit rootTattoo on rtattoo folder.

- If it's showing a number on terminal the application found your CID, write it down or make a printscreen if you didn't a goldcard and want to make it later with your sdcard.

- Hit any key to start. It will run all the way without taking anymore action from you and it automatically reboots tattoo.

Now you have recovery installed.

- Turn off the phone.

- Press home button and without releasing it press power button and hold the two together until the clockworkmod recovery shows up.

- Select Backup to backup your current ROM, you will need it if you want to go to stock ROM

- Reboot if you want to make sure everything is OK and get into recovery again

- Select wipe cache/factory reset from the menu using your D-Pad.

( BE CAREFUL now, you should have your battery with a good amount of charge, make a full charge before just to be sure)

- After the wipe select update from zip file, go thru you card and select the cyanogenmod zip to flash your rom.

- After flash go back on the menu and select reboot device.

Wait patiently for the full boot, it can take several minutes, the rom is being configured.

After the android skater shows up wait a bit more and the operating system will start.

Don't rush into the phone once it gets started up, let it settles and start all services.

After that, since you are rooted, with recovery and flashed, the last thing is to reboot on recovery, select update from zip and hit the gapps zip file to get the google apps instaled (optional)

Thanks to:

[HD2 General] tsutton:
All of sudden, my HD2 died on me when I was using it with CoPilot during my driving. I stopped my car, took out the battery & back on and powered it on. Then loaded up some apps before it started to reboot again. And again. Until it reached the point where it just shows the "HTC" logo and freezes there. I left it switched off for a few days.

Now, today, I powered it on, it showed the HTC logo and then shut down. No reboot.

I have not done a reset yet as I need some data off from it first.

Standard Windows Mobile v6.5. That's it. I can't even get the red text at the HTC logo to come up with the radio number & other details.

Does anyone know what the issue is? Is there a way to get it bacjk up & running without losing my data?

Thanks all
[HD2 General] johnerz:
First try a factory reset, press both volume up and down hold in then press the power button wait until you get the banded screen then the white screen - read the instructions.

If its booting its not bricked :)

Remove your sd card recover what you need then reformat it useing the pc, try EASEUS free edition remove all pertitions before formating

When its booted back correctly, I would consider a task 29 then reinstall the rom of your choice (the search option works well) Good luck
[HD2 General] tsutton:
OK, after trying a few battery unplug/plug, I finally got the red text to come up...

R - 2.07.51.22.2

G - 15.32.50.07U

D - 1.66.76641

But it's still stuck at the HTC logo.
[HD2 General] tsutton:
Thanks, I assume doing the factory reset will wipe off whatever I have on the phone memory?
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Yes a hard reset will remove all of your personal data and settings. Before you Hard Reset if you have not already done so. Check your battery pons to make sure you do not have a pin that is slightly bent. I say do thiscause you said it started bootlooping when hou took the battery out, I recommend using the reset button to soft rese.

Also try placing your HD2 in the freezer for like 10 minutes in a plasgic bag to protect it againsg moister and then see if it will boot.Also remove your SD card and see if that helps.
[HD2 General] tsutton:
Has given up, did a factory reset and all is good. But sad about the data loss. :(

Nevermind, moving onward! :D

Thanks for the helps, all.

lashing the Engineering HBoot (Optional)

The Engineering HBoot is NOT required to run CyanogenMod on the HTC Desire HD and NOT recommend to flash unless you absolutely know what you are doing & what the Engineering HBoot does to the device, due to a bad flash can brick the device, proceed with caution. 1. Download the Engineering HBoot: Download md5:b2c8834905bfa2349f5223077493140a

2. Unzip the Engineering HBoot to the same folder as adb (the /platform-tools folder with the Android SDK folder). 3. Connect the HTC Desire HD to the computer via USB. 4. On the computer, open terminal and type the following commands:

adb push hboot-eng.img /data/local

5. This next step could severely damage the HTC Desire HD. Using the incorrect file could cause irreparable damage, making the phone nothing more than a brick. Type the next command in the Terminal Emulator:

su

dd if=/data/local/hboot-eng.img of=/dev/block/

mmcblk0p18

6. At this point the Engineering HBoot is now install on the HTC Desire HD.

I updated to leedroid 3, which seems very nice but wanted to restore my 2.4 backup, but when i did lots of my apps were missing despite being fine when I checked the backup.

Titanium backup is missing so I can't reinstall the apps that way and Market is not there so I can't reinstall titanium.

I am pressuiming this is something to do with the Ext 3 convertor I ran prior to installing leedroid 3?? (I also flashed the recommended radio)

Any ideas how to revert my standard sd-ext or what the problem is (or point me in the direction of a thread that addresses this.

*edit* I have tried flashing leedroid 2.4.1 over my faulty backup which reinstalled the market, then installed titanium and did a full reinstall of my apps. Though it did install a few of them I still have some that are missing (such as angry birds, google maps and more), despite them being in my titanium folder on the sd card.

Many Thanks

I've come across the news that the Acer Iconia Tab A100 will be a 7-inch Honeycomb device, same resolution as the Nook Color.

But, if you are in the market for a new tablet, I find the acer more responsive and i feel you get the best bang for your buck. More so than the Xoom.

I must be the only person that doesn't really like Honeycomb on a 7 inch screen.
[Nook Color General] cmstlist:
I don't like how it looks on a Nook Color when adapted from the SDK. But I would imagine that if Acer is releasing this on a finished product, they're going to have figured out how to adapt it to be as good as possible. Certainly with Google working on "Ice Cream Sandwich" 3.1 to unite the phone and tablet streams, it makes sense that there should be some middle-ground way of perfecting it for the 7" form factor.
