[myTouch 4G General] TJBunch1228:
Can anyone confirm the guy above that said tmo has 10gb for $10 more? I just hit my 5gb, and that would be awesome! I hate the throttle speeds, I can barely load fb or xda without it timing out on me.

Edit: ok I called, not sure if anyone else has heard if better deals, but they do offer a 10gb cap now, but it is $30 extra per month. I went for it anyway, as I don't have home internet right now.

What company says unlimited yet charges for overages?
[myTouch 4G General] xat.mobile:
That's like saying there are worse forms of anal out there, and we should accept the kind of lube we're given. In a day and age where connectivity typically entails hundreds of megabytes or more per day per -user- just by watching movies and streaming music alone, it's ludicrous to simply 'accept' what is clearly a money grab. People simply accepting to be shafted so hard is part of the reason why corporate entities have such an influential presence in legislation; it's appalling what corporations can get away with simply because people 'accept'.

The other thing is they're being shamefully indiscreet about it. "Unlimited" is not being used in the sense that people generally perceive, and I imagine there would be less complaining if they would just outright say "5gb and then throttled" instead of blanketing it under the unlimited monicker.
[myTouch 4G General] 2leaponover1:
I'd have to agree with most of the above post. I really can't speak for anal as i've never had it (thank God), but i'll take his word for it. With that said there are all these major services coming out that involve streaming. They are touted for newer phones and are meant to make using your smartphone as an all around device media included. Here are some easy examples:

Netflix

Amazon Cloud Storage

Google Cloud Storage

Pandora

and now my biggest argument... TMOBILE TV. Why on earth does TMOBILE even come out with this service if they expect to throttle our speeds by even using it. We have to pay extra for the subscription and then extra for more GB. That is what I call milking the cow (us being the cow). As a business it's absurd. It's the equvalent of you selling me a brand new state of the art television for very little, but then after the sale reminding me i'm going to need a special chip that only you sell to get it to work. Then offer to sell it to me for a ridiculous amount. I could understand throttling in data's infancy, but now you are just diluting the own technology in the smartphone and what it comes with. The only argument i've heard is, "it's meant for WIFI". So, the only wifi we actually have control over is the one at home. Guess what, i'm going to use my TELEVISION at home, not my damn smartphone. That is the worst argument i've heard for data throttling. I was so excited to see Netflix, now i'm reminded of data throttling and totally dejected. I just wish these cellular providers would get to the point, stop making excuses, and just tell us the REAL reason why they throttle data. I fear the answer is, "Because we want to make a lot of money off of you, no other reason"
[myTouch 4G General] kalel33:
I have to agree with the above. I wish T-mobile just made the data that comes from T-mo TV not count against your total. The data that is for the weather to the stock system does not get counted against, so I don't see why they couldn't do the same for it.
[myTouch 4G General] Chuchave:
i so agree thats how they got me too man
[myTouch 4G General] th1rt3en:
Im on a Tmobile Dealer plan, and I've never throttled.. and I've used well over 5GB/mo multiple times, so I think dealer plans are exempt.
[myTouch 4G General] kalel33:
Your not exempt. You have the same plan I do and we get throttled too, but I don't care because of how cheap it is

I have made a backup of my phone with CWM to my SD card. Now i want to copy that backup to my computer if my phone or SD card is broken.

What file(s) do i need to copy from the SD card and where are they located? I only need the backup file.

Do the backup file need to be copied to the exact same place on a new SD card if my existing phone/SD card gets broken?
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
on the external sd card under

clockworkmod\backup

And yes it's got to be put back exact or it wont work
[LG Optimus 2x] joelteixeira:
Maybe you already know that, but with LG-P990 you need to manually enter on the bootloader (power+vol down) and start your backups/restore. The Rom Manager feature that automates this isn't working on Optimus 2X.
[LG Optimus 2x] pa64:
I do all my backups through Rom Manager.
[LG Optimus 2x] Blizze:
I can make a backup with the ROM Manager but cannot restore with it. It doesnt show up in ROM manager. It does in CWM by the way. Strange.
[LG Optimus 2x] baste07:
what do yo mean it does not work? it doesn't back it up? or will perform the backup but restoring from it will make your device unusable?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
It's 'cos ROM Manger looks in /sdcard and the actual backups are in /sdcard/_ExternalSD
[LG Optimus 2x] baste07:
i checked my Sd card... and back up is in sdcard... i don't have any _externalSD

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stojakapimp:
Hi all,

Is there a way to remove a theme or an add-on to a theme without having to do a system restore?

Specifically, I'm running the Sensed VirusROM and just added a theme with a bunch of other add-ons, including one that adds a custom sound on bootup. I'd like to remove that sound, but didn't know if that is possible without having to restore a nandroid backup and then reinstalling the theme and other add-ons that I'd like to keep.

Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headcheese:
you could reflash the rom, that would remove all the themes but you would keep your data.

if you just want to remove the sound delete or rename the sound file.

on bamf its system/media/finalthunder.mp3

if youre looking to change the sound the new file will have to have the same name as the old one.

root explorer or super manager is the easiest way to do this.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stojakapimp:
Sounds like what I need. Now I just need to figure out what the file is named and where it's located for this VirusROM boot sound.

Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stojakapimp:
Hmmm, I found the file alright (/system/customize/resource/vrsound.mp3), but ASTRO or Super Manger aren't letting me either delete or rename the file.

Any idea why I can't do that, or another method I could try to delete it?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dbagjones:
You have to mount /system as R/W, by default it's R/O.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nerozehl:
Some themes are so invasive that the amount of time it would take to remove would possibly exceed the amount of time it would take to restore a backup. I always backup before trying themes for this (and other) reason.

Im having trouble with these dang mail apps.

First: the mail app that comes with the thunderbolt, I cant forward a 7 mb attached file. Says file too large to attach. Ive gone thru all the settings I can find and nowhere can I find the setting I need to allow as big a friggin attachment as I want to attach. Anyone out there that can point me in right direction?

So Ive been playing with mail apps to find an app that doesnt restrict me. So the last month Ive been playing with K-9. The app is ok i guess, but when I try to forward an email, I dont get an option to scroll thru all my contacts and pick one! You have to have all your contacts email memorized or something cause it doesnt allow picking from conacts via People app.

Anyone know of a perfect email app? Or if im doing something wrong, can help a brother out. Thanks.

Im rooting my phone and I followed this guys method

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypJ9qFkT-Jw&feature=related

I did everything it told me to and now i am wondering what i need to do next? like how to flash roms. Sorry for my stupidity and being a noob.

I looked at one of the threads to flash a clockwork and i installed rom manager.

I clicked reboot to recovery and it did but it had a black screen with a phone and a red trinalge on it.

Help please?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Don_Perrignon:
Are you sure you're completely rooted? Do you have S-Off?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
first make sure your s-off. Pull the battery, hold the down volume button and the power button. Will be on the top line.

to get out of that recovery just pull the battery. To flash a custom recovery image just download ROM manager and select the top option. just downloading the Clockwork ROM Manager will not automatically install the recovery image.

As far as ROMs go there is a plethora of choices in the development section. Sense 3.0 or Cyanogen are my two favorites.

I'd also check out the "post your eMMC serial" number thread to make sure you have a good eMMC. a bad one can end up ugly.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteezyR:
thanks for the help. It does say s-off and i just flashed the clockwork recovery from rom manager app. When i do the adb shell for commands on the PC it doesnt give me the emmc serial #. it puts $ and when i put su it says permission denied. Do you know why?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kimbernator:
Did you actually click permaroot in visionary
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteezyR:
yes when i did it, it restarted the phone. should i click it again? im running the clockwork mod recovery now and about to flash cyangenmod 7 nightlies right now along with the kernel. Do you know how i could get the emmc serial?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
You need to do it from the recovery image. You need to have ADB up and working see my signature. Once

adb devices

picks up your phone, you need to return to the eMMC thread.

So after flashing to EE03 I restored some apps using MyBackup root. (Apps from both Android market and Amazon market.) Problem is two apps that I "bought" (actually were free apps of the day) in the Amazon appstore are showing up as needing to be updated in my Android market. How do I change the association? I tried to update and it pulled up the charge screen as if I were buying the app for the first time, from the android market. thanks in advance.

Edit* finally found a 'workaround.' uninstalled via android market and reinstalled via Amazon market. luckily only two apps of the 10 or so I got from amazon had the bad association.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jirafabo:
I'm bumping this because my workaround only worked for a day or two. I now have 6 "update available" apps in my android market that were downloaded via the Amazon market. Is there any way to unlink these from the Android market? Also, according to amazon, none of them are due to update, but I wonder if that's correct at all.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quick99si:
I guess the updates haven't been published to the Amazon appstore so your versions appear current. To confirm, check your app version and compare it to the published verson in the market.

The only way I know how to fix this, though I genuinely haven't looked around for this, is to use Titanium Backup (or similar) to detach those apps from the market. Be advised that this feature is reseverd for paid versions, however.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jirafabo:
WORKED! You know, I tried this a few weeks ago and the option was greyed out. When I tried again, my Ti Backup kept FCing, so I reinstalled, and this time it worked. Sweet. Thanks for getting me to try again!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sighted:
Back in december 2010, my i9000 worked just fine on froyo, with an provider that operates on 850 mhz for GSM and 2100 mhz for 3G. My work made me move to another provider which operates in 1800 mhz for GSM and 850 mhz for 3G. Also, my phone was great. Gingerbread came and, as everyone else, I made my update (and of course changed the bootloaders). The problem: I'm back to my old provider again (850/2100 mhz) and, as strange as it may seem, my phone can't connect to the gsm frequency (850) anymore! The 3G works with no problem. I've tested lots of modems, configurations, I have even returned to froyo, with no positive response. It seems like my phone has never had the gsm 850 mhz option. What has happened? Is it possible that my GSM frequencies have changed (by software?) Does the bootloader have anything to do with this? I'm just as confused as I can be! And I need my phone to work! Help me please!

Edit: DID IT!!!! I don´t know what was currupted, but I did a full format : SD,Sys,Data,Cache and after that I made a new ECLAIR (JM9) install and.... voillà....2G 850Mhz working again! Txs for the attention!

The biggest development outside of the AOSP projects is that a Canadien version of the Glacier was announced which came stock with pure sense 2.1 gingerbread. We're recently gotten that ROM leak, and as a result have had gingerbread sense ROMs popping up all over the place. Add to that several leaks of Sense 3.0 that were spliced together to build a pretty solid ROM based on the new Sense framework that should be included with the dual core phones hitting stores this summer. Also source was released for a GB Sense kernel that faux has managed to put together so that we now have access to a great kernel to pair with these new ROMs.

AOSP news is pretty much the release of 2.3.4 that includes video chat in google talk. Also the announcement of 3.1 Ice Cream Sandwich coming soon.

[General Questions and Answers] andrediaslopes:
Hello everyone,

I'm running some tests to see the battery consumption on my Galaxy S i9000. I'm using the gingerbread version of darkys ROM.

Firstly, what do you think of the battery life? In this specific test I used the phone in a very light way, made some messages/calls and read few mails.

Secondly, is it normal to have depressions in the battery chart that display less battery than it shows later? How is it computed? Isn't just some logic level of the voltage battery?

Lastly, in the case of buying another battery, is it worthless to be genuine?

Thanks a lot :)

On the SGS2, if the Swype dictionary doesn't know a word, you simply type it out as normal, then press space and in the future that word will be saved in the default swype dictionary so you can swipe it the next time.

But sometimes i don't know how to spell a word, so i type it in wrong and Google corrects me, but swype now remembers it. Or I type in an acyonym and now Swypes remember that too.

Incase you want to make the Swype Dictionary forget a word, simply type out the mispelled word, long tap on it and click "Select Word".
