[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xylation:
Howdy - I've had this problem with both my 001 and 004 Evo's.

After flashing a radio on the first one and a ROM on the other - charging no longer works. It works fine when the phone is off - but it won't connect at all to a computer or to the charger if on. I've tried 6 different chargers and multiple cords.

I found a solution earlier by flashing PC136 off the SD card and going back to stock. From there I rooted the phone using unrEVOked then reflashed into Savaged-Zen which went into a boot loop - as well as any other AOSP ROM I tried. The only ROMs that would flash and not boot loop are Sprint Lovers, VaelPak and other sense based ROMs.

Currently I'm on VaelPak and just installed the newest netarchy SBC kernel. Now the USB no longer works again. I reflashed PC136 and redid all of that and went back into VaelPak and the charging worked. As soon as I restored my apps through Titanium and reflashed any kernel, it no longer works.

TL;DR - In custom ROMs the USB port no longer functions when the phone is on. It works when it is off. How can I prevent/fix this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SVT Josh:
try using a non-sbc kernel and see if charging works? that's the only thing I could think of
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strypes84:
You know about the wide spread issues with the EVO's charging port in general correct? I've had to replace 3 phones at our company with that problem.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SVT Josh:
I don't think hes experiencing the charge problem as it charges fine without that kernel. Have you tried a different cable? I have had the charge problem but its always been the cable. I've been through 3 cables, maybe I'm just bandaiding the problem but it seems to charged like new with a fresh cable.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xylation:
I've tried several different cables but just to be safe I bought a new one yesterday - no dice.

I'm going to redo everything step by step so I can figure out where this occurs. Am I really the only one that's had this problem? I know at least two other people that have had it but can't find anyone online.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xylation:
Well - reinstalled VaelPak and now charging works so I do think it has something to do with the kernel.

My only problem now is the phone refuses to install -ANY- AOSP ROM. I've tried MIUI, one of the Virus, Evervolv, and SavagedMod. Any ideas?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] junks2010:
Hi,

If I buy an app in the market, Is it licensed for one device or one user?

I have a phone and a tablet, both use the same GMail email adress. Would I be able to buy and install the app on both devices or I have to pay for it twice?

Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
Usually the purchase is linked to your account and you can install it on any Android device that is connected to your account. I installed apps on the XOOM, Nook Color and TF without problems. Think of it like the iTunes store.

However, there are apps that register your Device ID and install only on one at a time. For example CoPilot Live. You need to deactivate one device before you can install on another one.

Hope that helps!

honestly i'd rather keep my phone.. stable at 100mhz and still looking pretty pristine. i guess if it gets beat up i'll use that as an excuse
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apockalupsis:
So I read about Sammy's press release on Engadget, and I was curious so I went to poking around Rogers' website. I'm pissed that they just snuck out the Nexus S, likely when it was released I would have been within my 30-day/30-minute window and could have returned this phone for it. And now they're tempting me with the xperia play... But really the captivate is fine, I just want official GB.

But what's weird is that on the Rogers spec sheet for the Captivate, it now says that it runs Android 2.3?! Is this just a good old fashioned lie from Rogers, is it an indication that new Captivates they sell have GB, or is it a sign that an update is out/forthcoming? I remember how silently the Froyo update was rolled out... anyone know anything about this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apockalupsis:
Tech support, predictably, doesn't know anything.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goraps:
Where did you see the spec sheet that says 2.3? Their website still shows 2.1.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apockalupsis:
weird...never mind! I most definitely did see 2.3 on the captivate page, because I remember looking at the image and all of the specs while on the phone with the tech guy. but it was right after I was looking at the Nexus S specs, and I can't reproduce it now, so i think it was a website bug - for some reason it was showing me the same specs I saw before, but under the captivate header.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silvertag:
Anyway tech support never knows when a new firmware is released until 2-3 days after we inform Rogers social media team about it. Samsung never sends a head up to them before releasing on Kies. It happened on 2.2 and will be the same for 2.3.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
that is wrong...

how does the 5 rogers bloat programs get into the update? hmm? and custom settings ect?

samsung doesnt do that for every carrier out there, just doesnt. you think samsung would cripple the phone

for

at&t ?

rogers releases the update. but from higher up.

rogers tech support gets no notice or warning. which is dumb but it happens
[HTC Desire S] dont know:
Quadrant Score now on stock ROM: 1754 (before 1090)

In everyday usage the speed improvement is NOT increased that way (50% - only a benchmark), but eg gallery IS much faster.

You have to have root..

type via console:

mount -o remount,noauto_da_alloc /data /data

or (recomended)

download "scripter" from market

-> new script

-> name it as you want

-> script: mount -o remount,noauto_da_alloc /data /data

-> save and

-> run script

It's only temp "hack"! - after every reboot you have to run the script again unless it isn't included in a ROM or kernel.

Thanks to supercurio for this.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dunkerquois88:
Hi, and to begin with sorry I can't post in dev section, no enough messages yet...

So my X10 failed since I tried another rom. Ok, so I went back to X10 2.1 official, then I rooted, installed busbox, xRecovery...

Well, let's try a new rom. I chose the TripNRaver Arc rom 2.3 gingerbread. Then I flashed the .49 baseband as asked in his topic, however I have infinite loop reboot. But it boots to PIN number asked, I see the phone find the network, so I think baseband is not the problem... But I'm not pro.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Sorry, my English is not perfect since I'm french.

Thank you :)

So, I woke up this morning to an un-unlockable screen and ended up having to pull my battery to get the damn alarm to turn off. When the phone rebooted, it said my sd card was damaged and I might have to reformat it. I would like to avoid this, as it had a backup I was going to revert to today on it, along with all my music and whatnot. Is there a way to fix this from the phone, our do I have to wait until after work and do it via my computer?

On my Nexus S 4G BLN didn't actually work until I toggled BLN on/off from within the BLN app, after that worked great. Or a reboot would probably work too

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DeadKid_Relive:
Wait!! Don't get me wrong!! I don't want to know how android multitasking works that's been discussed pretty often here... i think i got this part.

The point is, i'm thinking about switching from iOS to Android...

And I'm concerned about how multitasking works on android.

Example:So on iOS I can play Angry Birds pause the game, double tap homebutton and switch to text app to text someone, double tap homebutton again switch back to Angry Birds unpause and continue playing..

1. On android: does long-pressing the homebutton to see "recent apps" work from EVERY app?

2. Can I just switch from any app to another using "recent apps" and the apps i get back to, continue to run where i left them (e.g. angry birds...) or do they restart? So if android decides, that it needs ram, it will close apps, i got that and thats okay..

3. TouchWiz 4.0 adds a taskmanager button to the "recent apps" screen. this will take you appmanagement, where you can exit apps. In the forums i read that manually exiting apps is bad for android performance and battery life.. true??

I tried to find the right section for posting this and thought this is the right place, sorry if im wrong!

Would be nice if someone would answer my questions.

Thanks!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Brut.all:
Yes, it's a feature of Android OS itself and app can't block/disable it.

Yes, as long as there will be enough RAM, your app will be "frozen" and will wait for you in a state you have left it. But you don't have to use "recent apps" - you could e.g. click home button or open notification bar and tap something - app will be frozen. Same for returning to this app - in most cases this doesn't matter whether you will select it from "recent apps" or just tap it from a launcher.

Also some apps can resume their state even if they were killed for their RAM. But most of apps don't implement such feature.

It's bad if you kill apps like crazy - or if you use task manager which does the same. It's no problem when you kill one or two apps if you have reason to do so.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DeadKid_Relive:
Ahh thanks =) Sounds pretty good. Well I got an iPhone 3G now and i cant use more than 2 apps "at once" because i got multitasking by editing some plists but not the official way, apple wanted :D

and i have to kill apps, for my phone to run smoothly..

i dont want to mess with android processes like keyboard or stuff, but maybe, after playing a game, when i know that i wont get back to it pretty soon, there shouldnt be a problem with exiting it.. well cool. this probably bought me :D cant wait for the galaxy s 2 to be available here =) first android phone for apple fanboy :D :D

but thanks for taking the time!

Hi DarkPal. I don't mind that auto sync is on. Just want to disable push since that is usually major culprit.

I'd like to see something like this for the galaxy:

http://www.trustedreviews.com/Asus-Eee-Pad-Transformer_Laptop_review

I expect there's enough power in the i9000 to provide a pretty good browsing and communicating experience on a full size screen. Especially when we get better graphical hardware acceleration with gingerbread. I guess the video out on the headphone socket is actually lower resolution than the screen given that TV is usually 640x480 ?

Anyone know about any efforts in this direction? I really hope gingerbread gets better keyboard shortcut support added on soon to improve the experience on this kind of setup.

I think it would be very handy to plug in the phone in one move and get extended battery life, bigger display and full size keyboard.

Hi,

I've just flashed Xbmod's nodo rom. A beautiful rom! But there's one problem, I installed the included Windows Phone Device Manager, and it seems to connect fine to my hd2. It says that it's detected, then it says that it's installing Touchxperience. After that I get an error message stating that it can't launch touchxperience. It does show up in the installed programs list, but when I launch it, it shows a black screen for 3-5 seconds, then it goes back the the list again. I searched the net about this problem, and I saw other people have it too, but I don't see any solution.

Ran into the same problem this morning. Havent looked into it very much. Was trying to load my US navigon maps.

It worked perfectly fine with an older 7004 build I had on my phone.

Possibly not compatible with NODO. Definately installs the xap though. Dont the apps have to update for the NODO build. Not sure. Havent had much time recently to mess around with phones as much. So my knowledge is sort of limited on newer issues.

Hopefully it gets figured out. Just noticed that someone got the US navigon maps working and thats the one app I really missed having on WM. Not that I use it all the time but nav comes in handy when it needed.

I'm using ROM XBmod 1.11 and got same problem.

I tried to install touchXperience manually with .xap file and then launch it on my phone, still cannot start.

Someone said that maybe some hacks on the ROM cause this problem. I checked "dehydrate" hack and saw the registry key is default (DehydrateOnPause = 3).

Any other suggestion?

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] FlowerPotmen:
Take mobile off usb, power down and power back up again. now try touch Xperience.

Is it now showing? If so to marry with WPDM. put usb in, now if Zune starts, close it down. Start up WPDM. wait till it connects with the TouchX.

Is it now working? I am using Xmob 1.11 rom, and have no problems. But make sure that the ROM is cool, and not hot.

FPM.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] FlowerPotmen:
If you are using Advanced Config 1.2.1.1 (From Julian Schapps) Then slide it over to Tweeks.

There should be a tick on the Dont dehydrate apps on pause. Leave the tick on.

That should fix it.

My Tab has developed a crack in the glass. The crack came out of nowhere and is in the middle of the device. The Tab still works, but with a huge crack in the glass.

A few folks have told me Samsung will not consider this a manufacturer defect and that I will have to pay for repair despite it still being under warranty, which is odd since I didn't drop it or anything. The glass just cracked.

Hi u guys I'm in a big debate on wether which launcher is best and fast. I want your guys opinions.

I'm running my g2 with cyanogens latest nightly build.

First off

Adw: too slow for me

Launcher pro purchased: I had been using launcher pro for a really long time but it takes forever to come up and when u swtich the launcher to landscape mode everything goes bananas.

Go launcher: was using this for about 2 months but I don't like the theme selections.

Adw ex: what imusing right now, pretty fast but also a lil unstable.

What's best for u guys?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjward23:
Have you tried the stock gingerbread launcher? What it lacks in customisation options it makes up in speed and stabilty.

[sig]My mission is to hit 1000 posts by 23/05/2011[sig]
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmcqueen:
can't beat adw ex as far as I'm concerned... the new 3d drawer is perfect (literally, I can't tell the difference between it and a vanilla android launcher), theme engine is solid, customization is much more thorough than LP.

I had way more issues with stability on LP than I do with ADW ex... what ultimately made me give up on LP was the 1 minute wait time upon boot (or force close if you're impatient)... that's just plain sloppy.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popimp315:
Agree with both answers. But I think you can see the smoothness of stock over adw ex. At least I can for sure. I wish stock came with three screens and removed those dots at the bottom. Id be in heaven then. Have you tried zeam?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmcqueen:
yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if on setups not as stripped as mine, the stock launcher is still much smoother.

I'm only running 1 home screen with the google quick search box and eight app shortcuts. along with no transition animations or other eye candy, it's like butter, especially now that they've fixed the 3d app tray.. used to be a little choppy but now it really is reminiscent of a vanilla GB launcher in terms of smoothness.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilostchild:
I been using LP plus, and say I don't really have issue and it runs great and quick for me not real bloat options,I don't have to take 20 mins to setup the launcher how I like it as adw I don't like the dots, don't like thr trash on toop don't don't like drawer slook

For me launcher pro is definitely the best and runs smooth at all times (except when charging the phone).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EdKeys:
Go Launcher Ex is fast, smooth and the most reliable. As far as I'm concerned its the best home launcher right now. I was a long time user of Launcher Pro Plus but the bugs and lack of timely updates really irritated me.

ADW/ex both don't have good enough support for icons other than adw icons and that buff icon set. I'm having the same issue with Launcher pro, although I do like their activity options in the widget menu.
