Howdy,

I noticed I can't get the 3.0b14 Wifi Tether app to work with the community rom 1.3. I also can't seem to find any information on what other people are using searching the threads, and have seen at least two incidents of other people asking and not being answered. Am I to assume the infrastructure tethering is broken in the community rom?

Thanks In Advance

EDIT: NEVERMIND! It looks like I found yet another problem with OTB kernel 1.4. Went to OTB kernel 1.3 and it works fine again.

Has anyone tried to mess around with the overclocking or is this not possible with stock?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] nitsuj17:
you can probably use tegrak overclock in the market to do so on the stock kernel...it injects a kernel module to allow for overclocking

but really you would want a custom overclocked kernel in an ideal world

also overclock is meh :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
no point. we havent even been too successful in flashing stock kernel. not many infuse buyers have a two infuses or bought it for dev purposes. the testing on things has been slow.

gingerbread will be better than overclocking. now overclocking gingerbread will be awesome for benchmarks but noone will feel the need to do it once they see how smooth it can run.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guardiansnet:
Hey there,

I really like the newest Gingeritis ROM , for me it has been relatively stable with just a few spontaneous reboots and an occasional FC.

I am trying to change the boot animation from the one that comes with the ROM. I found the ability to do this in the Spare Parts app, but no matter which I choose, none actually changes from that original "computer boot" looking opening screen. Can anyone help me?

Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elemerica:
Not sure what file Spare Parts is changing, but I found that I needed to change /system/customize/resource/VZW_bootanimation.zip in order to change my boot animation on Gingeritis VIII. I was getting a little mad too, until I realized the boot animation file was the original Verizon name/location.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guardiansnet:
I thought it might be something like this. Can you describe the procedure exactly? Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elemerica:
First, I'll start with something maybe a little harsh, but I feel it's true. If you don't know what you're doing already, chances are you should not do it.

Download the boot animation you want, put it on your SD card. Open root explorer (or other file explorer that can mount directories r/w), find the boot animation file you just put on your SD card and copy it. Navigate to /system/customize/resource and rename VZW_bootanimation.zip to something else and paste the file you have copied. Rename the file you just copied to VZW_bootanimation.zip.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guardiansnet:
I appreciate the response and the explanation. Thanks.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcnovy:
Hey,

I am new to modding stock (actually Samsungs) files.

I would like to change the appearance of the std. Samsung Keyboard..

So, there is 2 files in /system/app

theres AxT9IME.apk, and AxTIME9.odex

and also I needed the Framework, so copied the whole Framework folder too.

so now on my PC I've got the framework, and I've got the APK and ODEX files.

I have used apktool to decompile the APK file, and that seems to be working too.

I have deodexed the ODEX file (although not sure if I have done it right)

but the files there do not seem to be important for what I want to change.

well.. now.. I can't get it to work.

I even tried to decompile using apktool, and compiling it again, and keeping the odex file, and copied both back in /system/app dir.

and even though I haven't changed anything in the files, it doesn't work..

(meaning the the Samsung keyboard has gone..)

the only thing I noticed was when compiling (building) the apk file, I got a warning

W: Could not find sources

I: Checking whether resources has changed...

I: Building resources...

I: Copying libs...

I: Building apk file...

so.. basically what I did..

adb pull /system/app/AxT9IME.apk

apktool d AxT9IME.apk AxT9IME

apktool b AxT9IME AxT9IME.apk

adb push AxT9IME.apk /system/app/AxT9IME.apk

restart phone, and it doesn't work..

I am running stock Samsung Rom

can anybody help me why this doesn't work..?

thanks..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcnovy:
If use Astro File manager, and go to /system/app and try to install AxT9IME.apk,

it will try, but fail with "App not installed"

no error messages or anything..
[HTC Sensation] descb600f:
I have just tried to enter a postcode into a contacts address but the only field is zipcode and it has the field locked to numbers, you cannot even paste a postcode into the field, is this a region issue I cannot find an option to change this but any setting I have in the phone are English (UK)
[HTC Sensation] biohaz55:
Not spotted this but you're correct :confused:

For now until this is fixed, hopefully, if contacts are entered in outlook and synced then the postcode will transfer ok.
[HTC Sensation] descb600f:
That seems to work but very annoying.
[HTC Sensation] biohaz55:
I agree with you as I generally enter details into phone and then sync to outlook when home........... now it's back to pen and paper when I'm out!!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] cooljhill:
same problem

i cant type in a post code apparently this is a common fault when i rang htc he found the fault to however he used the word "feature" and then said we may fix it if it is important... i said i type in 2 addresses a day i need to be able to type a post code as i have 2000 names and addresses in my phone
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
Not being able to enter a postcode is an annoying bug for a UK phone. You'd have thought that would have been picked up in testing. Guess I'll have to enter postcodes via GMail in a browser for now.
[HTC Sensation] DuoM:
Is this a joke??? "may fix it if it is important"?? I use my phone to enter contacts all the time and these then sync OTA to Outlook. It is an essential feature for me. If this doesn't work there is no way I'm getting this phone.

I think that in this situation complaining directly to Vodafone is the best solution and also opening a thread on their forums. People in other countries can do the same with Vodafaone/their local carrier. The carriers will then take it up with HTC and I expect that it will be fixed.
[HTC Sensation] dvhttn:
Not got the phone yet (b'day at the end of June so have to wait a bit ... :( ) but tested this on my Desire HD and the People app on this allows you to add a UK post code (though it calls it a zip code - doh! ). I'm on 2.3.3 and fail to see why you can't do it from a software point of view. Have they never heard of code re-use?

Still, 99.99% of my contacts are sync'ed from Outlook so no problems. Can you not add the post code as a note and edit it back in Outlook later to "work around" the issue for now? It does peeve me when 'localised' apps aren't really localised at all, just, for the UK anyway, a variation of the US version. Null points!

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
theres nothing wrong with the ROM,

WP7 was never ment for our device, the battery controller and WP7 do not get along well at all,

if you can boot to bootloader or magldr then plug in your cable, it will charge, no lights will come on though.

if you cant boot to it try heating up the battery a bit

there is a method that suggests plug it in, remove the battery, leave for a few seconds, put the battery back in again and leave to charge

the final method of charging involves connecting a USB cable directly to the battery, , cut an end off, connect the red to the +, the black to the -

the other two cables are not used and should be taped up

the third terminal on the battery is not used either, tape up the connections so that they cant short out. finally plug the cable back in to the PC

all methods should not be charged for more than 1 hour
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
How long do I heat up the battery if I'm using a hairdryer?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
just make it warm to touch, i wrapped mine up in a towel and put it on a radiator for a few min, it was warm, not hot, it gave me just enough to get me in to bootloader. it should comfortably warm your hand and not be hot in any way,

but that will only work if you havent killed your battery competely, if you have no volts or amps you will need to direct charge it or use an external charger.

remember, its a chemical reaction inside those things, you ever see a laptop catch fire? well its the same kind of batteries so be warmed! .....did you see that ? .....ok im now leaving :D

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] little8020:
You can call your Google voice number and listen to it like the normal one so you are using minutes and not data
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarlow:
Just make sure you don't look at the transcript on your Google voice app first. Once the voicemail is marked as read, you can't listen to it on the phone call. Once you update your voicemail preferences, the voicemail key on your dial pad will call Google voice instead of att.

[G Tablet General] Coldfirex:
Howdy,

I am needing to call VS tech support since my tab has a nasty tendency to completely shutoff all the time. Since I have modded it, I wanted to make sure I have the latest stock rom handy in case support makes me doing anything. Does anyone know which version it is (their website is down for me atm).

Thanks!
[G Tablet General] TJEvans:
If you were to run the OTA update right now, you'd end up with 1.1 3588. That's the most recent stock version AVAILABLE FROM VIEWSONIC RIGHT NOW.

THe ACTUAL most recent stock version is 1.2 4349. It was released as an OTA over a month ago, but then pulled 24 hours later. Some people were able to get it and make it available for download from third party sources. SO...if you called tech support, it's conceivable that you have either of these versions as your stock firmware. 3588 is the last 1.1 based update that Viewsonic released, and 4349 is a 1.2 based version.

I would say that the majority of people running stock firmware that have never modded aanything are more than likely on 3588.
[G Tablet General] Coldfirex:
Thanks!

Im wondering if I can get around having to load 3588 on my tab for when I talk to them. Has anyone ever called for support while running a modded version (I supopse without admitting to it)?
[G Tablet General] TJEvans:
I would suggest that you revert back to 3588 anyway and see if your issue is replicated on stock firmware. If I worked for US Merchants (the company that is handling G-Tablet tech support now) and you called me with this problem, and it was revealed that you are on a custom rom, I would wnatto make sure that it wasn't the rom itself that's causing the problem.

So, just to prevent further headaches and to get more accurate advice when calling them. I would suggest that you go back to a stock rom and stay there for a while. Depending on how often you get the issue you are describing, run stock until the problem would normally happen, and see if it does happen.

For instance, if it randomly turns itself off every 10-20 minutes, stay on stock for 2 hours and see if it still does it. If it turns off every 1-2 days, stay on it for a week and see if it still does it. It's not use calling tech support if you discover that it's the rom your using, and not the hardwarae itself.
[G Tablet General] Coldfirex:
Thanks.

I have had the issues across stock and tons of different roms for 6 months now.

I went ahead and loaded stock on it just in case though it really wasnt needed. They are going to RMA it for me, but I have to ship it off first. :(
[HTC Sensation] spfraggle:
Does anyone know if HTC will release an extended battery with replacement back cover for the sensation? Or perhaps something produced by another company like Mugen or Seindo? I have the US HD2, which works fantastic in the UK on Vodafone by the way, and I have the extended battery for it and in my opinion makes all the difference. I've had a good look online, htc, ebay, etc but no success.
[HTC Sensation] o0rebelious0o:
Most probably

If you have a look around at almost any of the older models they have extended batteries available. The Sensation has only just been released in UK and is being rolled out worldwide. Wait until china gets their hands on it (June 8th) I believe and then wait for the HTC "alternatives" to be released
[HTC Sensation] ratchetnclank:
The antenna is in the back case so i doubt it.
[HTC Sensation] ToneyEricsson:
Yeah I was thinking the same when I read about the antenna being in the back casing.

We never saw a extended battery on the DHD due to how the back was. The HD2 had a nice one which had a kick stand built in.

I would like to see one for the Sensation but that might well be difficult to manufacture and probably would be expensive too because they are putting components like the antenna in the casing.

I would have waited, I got a 2300mah generic for around $30 on eBay pretty dece, but really excited for the bigger battery, I know 105 is steep, but previous experience with mugen leads me to believe that it would still be well worth it, but that's my opinion :)

If it hasn't been leaked (which I don't think it has), you are SOL as far as reflashing it.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ears1991:
run gingerbreak and click the unroot button, if its not there you must have used an older version, i dont know if you can get away with uninstalling your version, installing the new version and then clicking unroot, cant see why not seeing as i imagine they used the same exploit.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryjan:
Thanks, the auto-install GingerBreak script that is linked in the read-me is the old version and hence lacks the unroot option.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ears1991:
ahh thats pretty annoying, you could try uninstalling the version of gingerbreak that is on there, installing 1.20 and use that to unroot, then uninstall it. I guess once your unrooted a factory reset should bring you back to pretty much how it was when you got it
