[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nick510451:
Good afternoon, I somehow managed to FUBAR my partitions on my Nexus S 4g, if I am understanding correctly I need to get a PIT file to restore the stock partition map so I can return to stock. Can anyone please advise? I can boot in FASTBOOT, clockworkmod 3.0.0.0 installed, will not mount boot or cache :-( any assistance would be appreciated.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
How did you do this? AFAIK you need a newer version of CWM to be able to properly mount /cache as well.

[Atrix 4G General] Cam9191:
I'm sorry man. When i opened the SuperUser application on my atrix, i see nothing. Do i need to add applications to it from here?
[Atrix 4G General] Cam9191:
Thanks! But google chrome wont let me connect to the link to download? any helps?
[Atrix 4G General] :
The SuperUser app itself doesn't do all that much, it shows you what apps have superuser access. Until you download an app that requires root, and allow root for that app - your SuperUser app will remain a blank list. Once you do allow root for a few apps, you can go back to SU and see the list of apps w/ root access.

It sounds like you want to know of some good apps that require su access.?

ClockSync

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirVilhelm:
I am coming from the Droid 1 were I was able to setup different colored LED notifications based on different events. When I switched over to the Thunderbolt I can't seem to get those same options. Does the TB only have two LEDs?

For example, in Handcent I was able to set a different color LED depending on who sent me a text, now when I try to set that option it will not open the color selector. Same goes for TouchDown Exchange, I cannot customize the color of the LED.

Thank you.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drhammertime:
I am also wondering about this feature. I know its been covered but I'm on my phone and don't feel like looking. But I think it has something to do with htc software or something like that

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Natronics:
lol. nah, sarcasm ftw. I came from the OG to the thunder. Never really cared for the LED color changes.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turbosrrgood:
I personally liked being able to set a different LED color for my txt messages, made it easy to see if I had something waiting when My volume is off at work.

Minor detail though, that I barely miss now. I can just turn off the led notification for anything else, has the same effect. It's almost invisible behind the speaker cover though, the led on the TB is really only useful for determining when it is fully charged IMO.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eddog4DROID:
I went from the droid to the fascinate and had no LED. Now I went from the fascinate to the thunderbolt, and I'm very happy to have any led.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dak_181:
quick question about the LED's guys... sometimes i look at my phone and no lights are blinking but then i look and i have new texts. i havent changed any settings regarding led lights or downloaded any apps to change them. are they suppposed to stop blinking after a while or is something wrong? i remember on my old droid one they would keep blinking untill i checked it, but then again that was a motorola phone... thanks in advance

MS has released patches for Windows Phone 7 & Windows Mobile 6.X to revoke fraudulent digital certificates.

https://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/advisory/2524375.mspx

Windows Phone 7 should update automatically (I think). Windows Mobile 6.X can be updated below. Not positive if the patch will or should work for WM 6.5:

https://www.microsoft.com/downloads...458b-a701-ec1efaf5091d&displaylang=en&pf=true

So, can one of you gurus confirm if all WM 6.X & WP 7 users should apply this? Also, is this something chefs should start cooking into ROMs?

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andream2g:
I am still hung up on Maps, News&Weather etc. not finding location or force closing. So question: I looked under /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db from root explorer and the value for "location providers allowed is GPS. Could that have something to do with my problems? Would changing it to Network do anything?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doncaruana:
Not sure if the settings will help, but conventional wisdom on this issue is to run FakeGPS for this.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andream2g:
Thank you for the suggestion. I did install FakeGPS when I read somewhere in the forum that it works. It did make Google Search bar work and Google Maps stopped force-closing -- still keeps asking for location though--- but it had no effect on the News and Weather widget force-closing.

How about Motion Zoom?

The best feature of TW4 imho.
[Captivate General] vunuts:
Motion Zoom runs off of the accelerometer and the motion sensors, but I think it's way outta the Captivates reach.
[Captivate General] Dani897:
the sgs2 seems to have a number of extra position sensors. it might not be possible. well anything is possible but it might not be within the devs can or are willing to do.
[Captivate General] dreezy1209:
The Gr-12 and continuum GB roms have tw4, i didn't really like it.
[Captivate General] xdahgary:
Thanks, that makes sense. How about the Samsung Infuse coming out next week? Does that one have the sensors to run a fully functional TW4 with motion zoom? Brother might get one.

I really like TW4 except how hard it is to alpha sort the app drawer.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bulsajo96:
Apologies to mods if there is already an answer somewhere here, but I looked and couldn't see anything directly related.

This is my first post so I wanted to say thank you to all the contributors and developers here, this is truly an amazing place. I just recently decided to try rooting my phone for the first time and flashing trigger3.2 using using the CWM app; all the developers and forum members who had a hand in any of these products- you rock! I can't believe how much better my phone looks and performs! And unbelievably- the GPS works now! I never thought I'd see the day....

My question is this:

Now that I have the Trigger3.2 ROM (KB5) installed, is there any reason for me to keep using the Voodoo Control Plus app I paid for? I am worried that a) I don't need it, given the voodoo kernal in the ROM, and b) that using it might TARFU the ROM...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
I use the app, no worries. It causes no harm, only beauty for your ears.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danielpc:
Agree. Although it has a voodoo enabled kernel for lagfix, it does not have the voodoo sound drivers that come with voodoo control app +.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bulsajo96:
Thanks, much appreciated.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgreene84:
I've been thinking the same thing

The app will always ensure you're on the latest version of voodoo sound. Use it, it's worth it.

Ok because im still a noob and cant post on the development forum...I figured id ask this here.

So i flashed the Gapps.zip from this thread

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
1) This doesn't belong in development anyway, unless you're asking in the thread for the gapps. Do not make a new thread for a question in development.

2) If the app is included in the gapps, just wipe cache & dalvik cache, then reflash the gapps zip.

2) I tried wiping cache & dalvik, then reflased. Still nothing...

Also, I even triend installing the apk that wmstwo002 posted with no luck either. Is there a specific folder i have to drop that apk into first in order to install correctly?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Just drop it on the root of your sdcard, then use a root explorer, to locate the app on the sdcard, long press, enable all the permissions, move to /system/app then install. Make sure you are mounted as r/w.

Edit: I don't know if he pulled this from a sense rom, because its not installing on Cm7 for me, with enabling all the permissions, I can say its not going to work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
It may need to be in /system/app.

Do you have Root Explorer?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omatter4:
Still no luck. It goes through the install process and then at the end it says 'application not installed'. Im at a loss. I guess ill just go back to gapps without gtalk video. No big deal, thanks for everyones help
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Try these gapps > http://www.mediafire.com/?92475r3frlncg29

And yes, they're safe.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
If you do have Root Explorer (or another root level file explorer), copy the downloaded apk then navigate to /system/app. You need to mount as r/w - in Root Explorer there's a button in the top right to do so. Paste the apk in that folder, then long-press the geniewidget.apk. Choose "permissions" from the list and change them to rw-r--r--

It should look like this:

x x -

x - -

x - -

X's are checked, dashes are not.

Then reboot, and you should have it.

But, Im using the weather channel widget for my weather right now and i like it a lot better than the genie widget.

Any recommendations for any other weather widgets that are reliable?

Beautiful widgets are beautiful. Try it out. If you like it there is a paid version, but the default with no skins are nice too.

For just weather, I use Palmary Weather. It's also a paid app, but has the best weather widgets I've ever seen. Beautiful Widgets is good if you want a clock as well, otherwise it's a little bulky for just weather in my opinion. I wasn't aware that there's a free version.

Script is standalone : you can download latest version without upgrading from previous version :)

Build.prop Worktool - A powerful but safe build.prop manager/editor

Hi !

Okay guys, since I know how powerful the build.prop can be, I love to play with it.

But I was bored to edit using Root Explorer, or using ADB command-line...

So... Let me present you my outrageously complicated (internally) script to manage your build.prop right from your computer, with ease, fun and safety !

GENERAL :

For any Windows NT kernel (Developped under Windows 7 x64... so should work everywhere :))

Portable and ready to use - No installation required, all files included (ADB with drivers also)

Lightweight (<3Mb unzipped, because of ADB very big lol)

Tested on XPERA x10i but should work on ANY Android powered device (if your ROM uses a build.prop located into /system/)

KEY FEATURES :

Easy open/edit your build.prop in your default text editor

Backup creation/management

Save backup on your computer and/or on your device

Safe (Automatic backup generator - Manages up to 2 backup files, exhaustive log file)

Automatic permissions management

Add-on capability : possible to add automated installation scripts to tweak your build.prop

List of present add-ons : 3G+ enhancement tweak

Very clean : deletes all temporary files, auto start/stop ADB server and kills the process when useless

Convenient : direct access to this thread, easy to use

v1.6+ : (beta) Build.prop XPlorer, to check with ease your build.prop

I based the main script on my 3G+ enhancement script, available on the official thread.

** As usual... Use at your own risk ;) **

Test, comment, criticize, if you find anything, just drop a comment or PM :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Perceval from Hyrule:
Developper/Advanced user addendum

(Write in progress)

Backup management

The script creates up to two backups, localed in main directory :

- build.prop.bak

- build.prop.old

Build.prop.old is generated if the script detects there's an existing build.prop.bak, to avoid accidental loss of it.

Build.prop.old is the final backup, and WILL BE DELETED if detected. The script manages backups like this :

1. If an existing build.prop.bak is present...

>> Script will detect for build.prop.old presence - if it exists, it will be deleted,

>> the build.prop.bak will be renamed to build.prop.old.

2. If there is no build.prop.bak detected...

>> Script will generate a build.prop.bak.

ADB Error detection

Error 2 (device not connected) works using a trick - it's not really related to device state.

In fact, the script will attempt to connect your device to download your build.prop. Once it is done - or not - the script checks if a local build.prop file was created. If it's not present, it means ADB encountered an error - about 90% because device is not connected - and will display error 2.

Keep in mind then there is small chance that your error does NOT come of device not connected : administrative privileges missing (don't allow the script to create the file), drivers buggy, ...)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ksubedi:
Before any of you start asking why i posted it in developement forum, its because it might be a problem all devs are facing.

Here is the thing, i recently posted a modified version of MAGLDR on this forum, which according to some people was a copyright infingement. I know that MAGLDR is not an open source app, but Cotulla hadn't mentioned anywhere that it was copyrighted or copy protected. The thread was locked by XDA Moderator joshkoss just because two people had said that it was infringement. I had just changed the text on MAGLDR to make it look and feel like it was from HTC.

I thought that xda was a place to post and find MOD(IFICATION)S and ROMS, but if someone locks a MOD thread just because some people think its copyright infringement, i think it discourages developers to do anything. And if you think that i did something wrong by changing texts on MAGLDR, what about HTC Sense? HTC Sense is a proprietary software (android framework) made by HTC Corporation which is closed source and also copyrighted. There are thousands of HTC Sense roms on XDA, but no moderator has ever locked a Sense ROM thread. If you want to make it fair, lock all the sense rom threads, or unlock all the threads that have been locked for unfair reasons. It seems like people dont get what MODS are meant to do. I would have asked cotulla for his permission, but since he was not active in xda recently, i planned not to.

I am pretty sure that there will be a lots of people replying against this, and i guess this thread will be either deleted or i will be banned. But i dont care anymore, because if someone locks a thread without any research or anything, i cant just stop and watch another thread getting locked. I dont want to make a big deal about the modified magldr, but i am talking about all the mods in general. Thanks.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] alltome:
so hi @ all,

i gave both sides right. but i think we should close this thread.

When you modify a rom or things like mgldr without permission by programmer or dev team you don´t do this.

and you´re right when you say that you won´t get any credit cause you´ve wriiten this direkt in your thread.

But you also must respect eachother and when admin of DFT team says stop your project then do it and gave him respect for his hard work.

please close this

I don't think this has anything to do with copyright, but with permission. Cotulla and DFT are the sole owners of MAGLDR. If they don't want you to modify and distribute MAGLDR, then you should respect there wishes.
