[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hwithv:
Thanks, dude. In the list of ClcokwordMOd, i find out there is a row for Milestone. Click on it, I also am able to download a file of Recoveries which is specific for milestone. But it does not work.

One thing I would like to raise here is that after i cannot use update.zip any more. Cuold you please explain why? It also says "cannot verify signature"

Thanks
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
Because your phone does not have the vulnerable recovery installed. Look at the link I posted. It has everything you need to get up and running. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hwithv:
I did do as your instruction. But as i did the backup, it is stuck. the phone went to "system:dumping..." and stayed there in one hour.

I flashed the recoveries sucessfully. please advise
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sileshnair:
The Milestone mentioned in ROM Manager / clockworkmod is probably the Alltel Milestone, which in reality is a droid 1.

Now that you have installed cwm, you have to remove it from your phone and then install Androidiani openrecovery. Before that you need to install vulnerable recovery from here using rsdlite.

Note that it may take more than one try to get cwm out of the system.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
What did you end up doing after it hung for an hour? Because if you haven't flashed a custom ROM, you should still be able to boot (rooted) and you can try the Nandroid backup again.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hwithv:
I take the batterry out of the phone and restart it again. It works normally but the backup is not done because i do not find out the backup under Openrecoveries folder. I did try the second time but it happed again and i had to take the battery out of the phone and restart.

please help
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] salisbury_steak:
I actually had the same mistake as you before (using ROM Manager on our Milestone).

I recommend this:

1. Backup your SD card content

2. Reformat your SD (slow format)

3. Place the AOR 3.3 (Androidiani Open Recovery) files back in (use a fresh download if possible)

4. Perform Nandroid backup again

Note that there will be no "backup" content in your OR folder. Instead, you will see a new "nandroid" folder in your sd root.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hwithv:
Thanks dude. I find out the solution. I wipe all data + cache, then I download a fresh recoveries and then i did the backup again. It works well.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] lspdv1991:
CWM problems

I used androidiani and flashed cm7. then i tried ROM manager while i was unaware that it messes with the milestone. now i cant enter recovery at all!!!! Help!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sileshnair:
You have to flash vulnerable recovery again from here.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hwithv:
You should not use ROM Manager to do the backup or flash for Milestone. please use Open Recovery 3.3. Download it and please delete CWM folder also. Please wipe data/facotry reset for doing backup or flash. (IMPORTANT). It will work.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mis3:
I know next to nothing about themes, but I am doing my best to make a grey/black theme for personal use by mixing and matching pieces from Erebos (using as base), frost, and Bionix while also mixing in black dialer and phone from Emotionless Beast.

The only thing I am not happy yet is the battery. I would like a grey honeycomb battery with %, or circle battery with % (for regular and charging). This needs to go on a black background. I was able to do a test run using the blue honeycomb battery in Midnight theme, so I am pretty sure I can copy the pngs from one zip to another, so the rest of the framework doesn't matter.

Does anyone know of a battery mod or rom that has this battery that I can use to copy the pngs?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sprice5:
You can just edit all the blue battery icons from honeycomb in photoshop and change them to gray.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mis3:
Very true. Was just hoping to save the time of editing the ~200 images if somebody knew of a rom or theme that already had the grey circle or honeycomb battery (photo editing is not my strongest suit). Doesn't really matter where it's from, as this is just a personal use theme.

With all the themes out there, I had hoped there would be one with it already made that someone could point me to. Tried searching and came close a few times, but nothing just right.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sprice5:
Try this and tell me if these pngs are the right gray you were looking for.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mis3:
Wow, that was exactly it. Already copied in the images and reflashed the theme. That was the last piece I was missing.

Thanks for your help. Was that something you already had or did I miss a theme?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sprice5:
No. I just was bored and did it real quick. Enjoy.

See, this is why I don't create themes, but just pull pieces from existing. This would have taken me hours. Thanks again.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cpl.Garcia18:
Ok i screw up some where... I went and disabled voodoo lagfix. I rebooted the phone and i began clearing out all items from the memory card (internal and external). I think i might have accidently deleted the voodoo lagfix folder. I went and reset the phone and now its just rebooting over and over and the robot chick is saying restore operation. I've tried to get to download mode or recovery mode from here and i cant do anything. I really need some help fixing this. I was suppose to have the phone ready by tomorrow, I was going to sell it to someone. Any help will be much appreciated, Thanks.

[Acer Iconia A500] UberArtifex:
There is a big debate about the issue of the telephony system draining the battery life on the Iconia A500.

One way to solve the problem is renaming the .apk causing it, but it can brick your device if you do a factory reset. The other aproach is to edit a single file and set the cell conection to GSM (so no constant polling).

But, IMHO, a process doesn't, consume power. The power is consumed by the hardware of the device. The mW consumed by a process should be the sum of display + system + wifi + other hardware during the period of time the process has been active.

However, the device suffering from a "Cell Standby" issue is a wifi only version, and it drains nearly a third of energy compared to the display comssuotion (a purely hardware part).

So, my question is, if something is consuming so much energy, could it be a hardware device?. Maybe the only part missing on the A500 is a less than 2$ sim socket.

Anybody brave enough to do a tear down of his device? (And do a lot of pictures, a la ifixit)
[Acer Iconia A500] farnsbarns:
Hmm, I like your thinking. I might have a go. Mine arrives tomorrow.
[Acer Iconia A500] immortal99:
I'd be very interested in this also.

I've noticed that on the status screen from the about screen on my wife's A500 it lists the sku as 3G and one of the version numbers is listed as A501. (Though the firmware is A500)
[Acer Iconia A500] rushless:
I am on my second A500 (first one appeared to have wifi issues) and neither has had a battery drain issue while using or in sleep mode. I do use Advanced Task Manager to exit any non-system tasks, but that should not make much of a difference.

I lose no more than 5% after ten hours in sleep mode and a full charged tablet lasts me a little over eight hours with (for me) heavy use. I have yet to have it die on me and if I do less Flash streaming, it lasts ten hours.

Of course, "use" is very subjective, which a a reason battery threads kind of tend to spin in circles.
[Acer Iconia A500] docfreed:
Yes, I see the same thing, about 5-6% when sleeping overnight, and I think the chatter about battery drain is meaningless. Sure, it says "cell standby" is 30% but,

a) That is 30% of a small number , i.e., 30% of 6% = <2% loss

b) I tried some of the proposed solutions in the Battery Drain thread in the dev section - there was little difference before and after

I think the whole thing is a waste of effortg - the battery drain is no more than I had using CM7 on a rooted Nook Color - less than 1% per hour and I think all the related threads are solutions looking for a problem!

Inside the A500

http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...77-whats-under-hood-acer-iconia-tab-a500.html
[Acer Iconia A500] edgemaster191:
according to his post, there is no mobile broadband module. so if there is any battery drain from "cell signal" it would be because the system isn't able to sleep.

android simply thinks there is no service and isn't designed to ignore the cellular state when the hardware isn't present.
[Acer Iconia A500] UberArtifex:
It's very clear from the pictures that there is no cellular module inside the wifi version :(

But, it 's also clear, the telephony system is polling for data, and waking up constantly the device (even when there's no hardware attached!!).

It's an Acer-centric problem, let's hope they fix it in the next update.
[Acer Iconia A500] hurrpancakes:
I thought the a500 does have a sim slot next to the sd card slot? You can see the cover over it
[Acer Iconia A500] immortal99:
Ok. I can't post a picture because I haven't made enough posts but if you look at:

Will the monster .340 zip from TBH allow me to revert to Froyo after the OTA? I'm using wireless tether (I know, shut it) to TETHER TO MY XOOM instead of bluetooth. The bluetooth connection is just too unreliable. I get disconnects, hung downloads, slow innernets (lol), etc. So I use wireless tether. If the official GB doesn't solve my bluetooth tether woes, will this work? I've noticed it updates pretty much everything during the install, including the kernel.

To answer your question: no. I've tried and you just bootloop even with wipes and what not. Sbf is the only way (so far) to revert from gb to froyo.
[Droid X General] zehkaiser:
I'm using the SBF-like-update.zip from TBH. I've used this on numerous occasions to go from .588 to stock. I just wasn't sure if it will work with the OTA. I believe the zip contains the boot logo, boot animation, kernel, mbm, cdrom, and software version.

[General Questions and Answers] Jaejin:
I'm sorry if this is already a question although I couldn't find a thread on it.

Simple question. Is which is better, FroyobyLaszo or GingerYoshi. I'm going purely on speed.

FroyobyLaszo seems really fast, except it start to slow down after a days use which then I have to reboot the phone again to get it up to speed and it force closes lots of components like Messages and stuff.

Iv'e tried GingerYoshi and it ran really slow for me. Everyone posted that it's super fast, but to me, it's super slow, Can anyone tell me the settings for GingerYoshi to optimize the ROM? ( Partition, CC, JT, Ect. ) Oh and how to change the keyboard because I dislike the keyboard on the GingerYoshi.

Sorry for the many questions, noob here(:

Well my sister is wanting a iPhone4. I'm telling her it's an absolute waste of money... The IPhone4 was already a fail compared to the Fascinate. Any other phones youd recommend? Or any other reasons why she SHOULD get a fascinate?
[Fascinate General] droidstyle:
well from what I have read the fascinate is alot easier to work with in terms of rooting. Im a newb lol so somebody else could explain this better. Do some research and read the stickies... that will help alot. I can say my grandmother has the iphone4 and the SF blows it away imo. Alot lighter for one, bigger screen, better app market and ability to customize the phone.
[Fascinate General] KneeDragr:
My opinion is that the Fascinate is a better piece of hardware, but the IOS is clearly superior to android in that it runs faster, smoother, and has less 'issues'.

For instance, Im battling massive battery drain. In the past, I often had a problem where I would wake the phone to make or receive a call, and it would be very slow and unresponsive for 15-20 seconds. Like it was doing a bunch of background crap when I was trying to use the phone. This should never EVER happen.

When the phone is being used, either dialing, in contacts, or on the dial pad, it should receive absolute highest priority since thats the primary use of the device. All other background tasks should be put aside so the user can place the call correctly. The fact that this is not the case shows me the OS is not designed correctly.
[Fascinate General] droidstyle:
^my sf does not have that problem at all....
[Fascinate General] FDro:
Best thing you can do is to tell her to go test the phones out at the store and pick the one she likes. Dont pressure her into getting what YOU want, it's her decision and it will be her phone.
[Fascinate General] nunyazz:
I'm not a fan boy but you have a couple of your 'facts' wrong.

1. Rooting or jailbreaking my previous iPhones were as simple as going to a website (jailbreakme.com) and pressing a button that said "Jailbreak". Not sure how that is harder that what needs to be done to my SF but....

2. Better app market on android than iPhone? Seriously?

Each phone has it's pro's and cons. I've had every iPhone that has been released but now have a SF. I miss some things about the iPhone but overall like my SF better. But my wife wants to go back to the iPhone because it is "easier to operate" in her words. Some people just like the simplicity that the iOS gives you and don't care about all the customizations you can do on android.

So it depends on what you want to do with your phone.

Android will soon take over Apple, it's a definite. Just remember, Android is a kid right now while iPhone is a grown man (lol lame).

Cool things about Android that are not the same about iPhone:

*Android has a much more open market. Google doesn't moderate apps as hard as Apple does, so there are many more possiblities.

*Android has homescreens/homescreen widgets!!

*Android apps can 'work together' with the use of intents and such, while Apple does NOT let apps work or talk to eachother.

*Android is Google. Google is awesome.
[Fascinate General] dandog96:
I do not like the Iphone, but in this case I would competely reccomend it, because if she isnt too good with electronics the Iphone is perfect. Big Buttons on the front for everything lol, and its just more in style I guess...
[Fascinate General] whoisandy:
This is what I tell people about Android vs. iPhone. I feel that both are great in different ways.

iPhone is great for its simplicity & app store. You can sync your music, videos, pictures, and data on your computer. I don't think there's a similar program for Android (yet). iOS is pretty simple, straight forward. The software is streamlined and quicker to learn than Android. I say that because you can do more with Android, but it just takes more time to get the hang of it. Apple's App Store is better right now. More quality apps there. Also, some developers feel that it is more profitable than Android Market. There are a few apps that I wish were for Android but other than that, it's whatever. Usually you can find equivalent apps on both platforms.

As for an Android phone, it's great for people who like to customize and tinker around. I enjoy the community support greatly, it's a huge plus. Users and developers can enhance the experience of Android software WAY faster than iOS. I'm talking about bug fixes, tweaks, mods, themes, etc. Home screens, launchers, widgets, and custom roms are all HUGE pluses over iPhone. There is total customization here and it's amazing how you can change your phone and make it better from when you first get it. My Samsung Fascinate would be 'just ok' but thanks to custom roms, community support, and so on, it makes the phone much, much better!

Cons to Android are that it is sometimes buggy as Android software is used over many different phone brands. Apple develops software for JUST iPhone so their software will be more stable. It's like how Windows software runs on many different hardware (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.) so it doesn't always perform the same w/brands but Apple builds both their hardware and software exclusively so it doesn't have issues like that.

If you want something simple, easy, that "just works" and does the thinking for you, go iPhone. If you enjoy technology, exploring, and like to push your phone to its full potential, Android is the way to go. More possibilities and potential there.
