[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex-V:
One question (and i don´t think this is for q&a thread...because i need the feedback from rom devs)

Is it possible to have the new kingdom or sense 3 lockscreen in classic sense v1 roms...???!?

I ask because we know sense 1 is much faster as any hd (ace) version...and i think this lockscreen is so good...its one of the things i have on my "dream" list

I ask not for the photo or weather lockscreen..only for the lockscreen with the symbols (so i or we don´t need the select menu)

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr1960:
I dropped the htclockscreen apk from the kingdom rom into the 'official' gb desire leak and it worked fine. Never tried it with froyo.

From memory music and call stuff appeared on the screen.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex-V:
what did you directly...make a update.zip or just install it...and only the lockscreen.apk ..?!?

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex-V:
if i make a simple update.zip i have the classic aosp-google lockscreen..?!!!!?

i take the lockscreen from cool kingdom port or from kingdom port from seo...mmhh..what file you take..?

I can not install only over zip

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr1960:
just deleted the htclockscreen.apk from the gb sense rom using winrar then replaced it with the one I extracted from the kingdom rom. flashed the gb sense rom and voila! it was there.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex-V:
will try..thx for the tip... ;)

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex-V:
mhhh..i try it but always get the aosp-google lockscreen...please can you post your lockscreen.apk..?!?!?!?

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr1960:
Yep - no problem. I'm at work at the moment but will do it when I get home tonight.

I think it was this one @Alex-V, although it seems like about 50 rom flashes ago, so I can't be 100% sure.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex-V:
ah..ok thx...will try it again :) ;)

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex-V:
you are right...only worked with gb

anyway...thx for help

with kind regards...Alex

What's the current firmware version officially pushed to epics right now?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p3dr0maz:
Firmware version 2.2.1

Build number: FROYO.EC05
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelo2k8:
Is there a way I can download the update to my system via download from samsung because my phone for some reason still has DK28 and keeps saying that there is no new firmware to download.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notsosmrtgeek:
you will have to odin to either DI18 or EB13 then your phone will update itself. or you can get the EC05 tar and update it thur odin and skip a step :D. but DK28 is not an official release so the update would not go thur on your phone.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelo2k8:
Oh that makes sense. Thanks!
[Nexus S General] Cheeze[iT]:
Ok here's my dilemma, in about a month I'm going over to parts of Europe/on a cruise. I plan to take my phone and wanted to see what options I had. I've been back and forth on devices but settled on the nexus s since it gave me the best overall experience however I am now stuck with the fact I don't have wifi calling. I planned on using that on the cruise to call out and at my hotels where wifi will be available. Do I have other options? Can I use my phone and do Google voice to call/text?

Side note if I don't figure this out I was either considering trying the sensation or maybe getting a xoom since I wanted a tablet but again can I use Google voice at least to call or text? Or just get a cheapy phone that does wifi calling like a blackberry and go with that?
[Nexus S General] p00kienrayray:
you can send texts via wifi. if you link google voice with your phone, you can log into g voice via browser on your phone and then send texts. I'm not sure about making calls though.
[Nexus S General] lazyjai:
Can't you do SIP WiFi calling? Setup options under Settings --> call settings --> accounts Add Account

That's assuming you have a SIP line?

Skype is another option...
[Nexus S General] p00kienrayray:
he can do that, but he will still be charged for it. idk if that's what op had in mind or not.
[Nexus S General] PTzero:
If you're getting free Wifi on the boat or hotel, you can use Google Voice to send SMS for no additional cost. You cannot make voice calls over GV without roaming charges on your T-Mobile bill.

To make voice calls, either set up a SIP account or sign up for Skype and use that over free Wifi.
[Nexus S General] newspeak:
T-Mobile nexus s ? If so the wifi calling app will work ....otherwise Skype tango oovoo fring
[Nexus S General] Cheeze[iT]:
There isn't a wifi calling app... :confused:
[Nexus S General] newspeak:
Forget I said that..... I haven't tried to use it since I had my vibrant so I assumed it was available for the nexus s
[Nexus S General] uansari1:
There should be a hacked wifi calling app available..I'm pretty sure I saw it in the dev forum, so just dig it up. Of course u'll have to be rooted. I'm using wifi calling on my nexus one right now from Pakistan.
[Nexus S General] brian6685:
No wifi calling for nexus s.

Nexus S & G2X
[Nexus S General] uansari1:
Thanks just dug up the thread and saw that development has been stalled. Hopefully it'll be available in the future.
[Nexus S General] BruceCLin:
Line2 is an option.
[Nexus S General] Cheeze[iT]:
I'm just going to borrow my friends G2 or BB and use the wifi calling feature. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zimphishmonger:
Hey everyone,

Found this mod for the Galaxy S (Or SGSII, not sure what the i9003 is), which switches the Internal and External SD cards, according to the Android OS. Personally, I have a lot more space of my external SD and would like games and such to store their data there, instead of on my smaller internal SD. Some apps like Titanium backup can change their data locations, but Games such as Gameloft games and the like cant have their game data moved to the External SD card atm.

This looks like a great alternative to this issue, could this hack be adapted to the G2x?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1088474
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiko36:
Although I could see how you would think this would be in development, this post should actually go in Q&A.

That being said, this would be a very useful modification.

Edit: My apologies. Apparently you posted in precisely the right forum. My apprehension arose from the fact that so many people say 'BUT WHAT ABOUT THIS MODDD??!?!' and it just clutters things up so my immediate reaction was to motion to have it moved. Good deal bringing it to Krylon and Tweezit's attention :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zimphishmonger:
I couldnt decide between Q&A and Development for this topic, as it involves porting or adapting a hack for another phone to the G2x.

MODS: Please move this to Q&A, if necessary.

EDIT: Apparently not, this seems to be a development topic now :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tweezit:
Here is a file Be warned I have not tested this. If it messes your phone up I am not held responsible. **Personally I would let another dev look at this to be on the safe side as I am not 100% sure on this.**

You will have to extract it and use root explorer to push to /system/etc/

Oh I needed to clarify this was on 2.2.2 so it may differ on 2.3.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
Since we have a little interest, we'll leave it for a day or so and see if anything comes of it.

I've PM'd krylon to take a look at Tweezit's vold. (sounds like a nasty STD). :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tweezit:
Smart move as I spent all of 2 minutes looking through the file as I am in a rush to leave :)

Later guys ^^
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
I'm looking at this now. Your biggest issue is you are going to have to have 3 different versions... well... in reality 2 different versions. CM based and Non-CM Based.

And if someone flashes the wrong one...they are hosed and will have to restore from a backup
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
ok, after reviewing Tweezits vold, Bionix vold, and CM7 vold, tweezit's would break mounting.

The reason being, with the introduction of Tegra, the vold changed for it.

I'll have to do some testing, but making the internal to external switch should be fairly easy.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
Eh not bad in my eyes I always do backups
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
Is there a way to have setting like a switch to interchange between the two
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
last time I did a backup was when I was testing EXT4/3 restore. :P
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
Lol I'm a rom crack addicr
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
We need to decide on a standard. Unfortunately some people don't have SD cards but I'm sure most people would that visit here.

I'm for the switch cause i hate crap installing to my internal drive. Cm already made the switch.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] antoniouslj:
I'm with you. Maybe we should put together a poll or something...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Multiple versions just confuse the new guys. Would be nice if there was some priority... Like use SD as first choice then fall back on internal if SD is not present.

That still complicates things as people wont know what's going on.

****best idea****

If CWM flips it by default then you can just streamline everything and make a public service announcement on the CWM download page that they will be flipped and an SD is required for flashing. Makes sense to use a SD for flashing anyway.

Even a 2gb is plenty for some Roms and app storage. Save the internal for personal music and other media. I hope no one rocks less then that these days.

Plus if you use internal storage I can see certain scenarios popping up where they are boot looping and lost their access into the internal files. I can't mount using 3.1.0.1 external. If it werent for my SD I'd be stuck hardcore.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sryan1983:
I'm kind of with you on this one. I use all of my roms and such for the external SD card and everything else for internal.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
Good point however 5gb of internal space is not enough for me since I have 10gbs of music onmy sd card. I wish there was a way to have a switch function that will enable you to choose which sd crd to download to
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
I've attached the CWM flashable .zip of the mod I've been running for awhile that will swap your SDcards. Never been able to get it to mount the external card as a folder inside /sdcard/. Didn't really want to release it until I did, but here ya go anyway ;)

BTW, is it just me, or do init.d scripts not work in CM7?

This is for CyanogenMod only!

I don't have the volds from other builds on hand to mod them....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zimphishmonger:
WOW! I come back from long day of work and find all this discussion.....awesome!! Thanks for chiming in guys. I def understand there will have to be at least 2 versions cause of CM, but as its a file, couldnt a simple app\script be created to swap it back and forth, after detecting CM or not? It may be a lil beyond my scripting knowledge, for the detection portion at least.

I see a ton of useful reasons for this switch, as the 5GB isnt the 13ishGB that the Galaxy S has and doesn't quite satisfy the requirements of a "primary" sdcard IMO. The 5GB would be useful as an "_InternalSD" folder bind\mount (whatever is being used), with the External SD as the main SD card. I'll list a few useful reasons why.....

Off the top of my head......

If your a serious gamer and you have a TON of games that have downloadable files put to the SD card, that 5GB will go quick (Gameloft I'm looking at you)

External SD can hold WAY more nandroid backups than Internal SD, and ROM Manager would recognize them (I acknowledge the external sd issue is not really an issue w/ the two ext4 recoveries)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] momentarylapseofreason:
I humbly disagree.... If anything it would belong in the General or Development. It is a work towards development and there is no "question" being asked. Just because it isn't a ROM, doesn't make it any less important to work on the phone.

Just my .02
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
this might pose an issue down the road though. Redoing the Vold is only half the battle. Kernel init.rc is the other half. We would have to build a custom kernel that matches the vold, so it would be a 2 step process. well....1 since they would be flashed together.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thatruth132:
after flashing this alot of my apps disappeared
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
see my above statement.

To fix, You'll need to vold.fstab that you overwrote.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thatruth132:
excuses if i sound noobish but i dont understand the vold.fstab method
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
the file you flashed, was a vold.fstab. You need to get the original from the zip of what ever rom you are running, and adb push it to /system/etc and reboot.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thatruth132:
thats what i just did i didnt think about it until half way into reading my own post lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zimphishmonger:
Figured I'd chime in, as Ive had SOME progress..

I found a thread in the i9003 forum that helped point em in the right direction. I have modified the attached vold.fstab to mount the External Sd as the primary and the Internal SD mounted to the "_ExternalSD" folder. The only issue is that you cant mount the SD cards to a PC? Probably because I didnt edit anything in the init.

Gameloft games are the major issue for this, IMO. Could we simply syslink or bind mount the gameloft folder between the sd cards? I dont know any other developer that has games with >1GB game data, so thats the major issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KiNG OMaR:
What rom is that for?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zimphishmonger:
This should work for Stock Froyo 2.2.2, EagleBlood, or any other 2.2.2 based G2x ROM. Keep in mind, I cant get USB mounting to work properly with this vold file, because i didnt edit the kernel.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KiNG OMaR:
It would be quite a treat this could be integrated on all the stock froyo based roms... even the leaked gingerbread ones :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zimphishmonger:
That script was just something I pieced together REALLY quickly. It has some major bugs, like not being able to mount USB to a PC (most likely B/C i didnt edit the init in the kernel). I just started it hoping someone more knowledgeable could help out, and to see if I could even get it mounted in Android properly (which I could :))
[T-Mobile LG G2x] v8dreaming:
Is there a way to separate the internal and external SD cards like HTC does on the Inc.? I'm not sure about the rest of their phones. I just hate that I have to go through one to get to the other. It screws everything up. App downloads to one and looks for it on the other. It such a pain.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Serious_Beans:
This works on Faux's AOSP Rom
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
Well ya....they're basically the same thing, one's just gutted :D Anyway, the point being to not use it on anything stockish.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
Just a question, how will I access external SD now?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zimphishmonger:
External SD is now seen as /sdcard and Internal SD is mounted at "_ExernalSD". Its a cheap hacky way of swapping the mounting points, hence why USB Mass Storage support doesnt work :confused:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
After putting the file, mine has Internal SD in /sdcard but external sd is nowhere to be found.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
If you're referring to the one I posted, it's under /mnt/emmc/

(this is where external used to be, btw)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
Yes I am, after replacing the file Internal SD becomes /sdcard instead of /mnt/emmc/ but the problem is the external SD is no where to be found anymore.

That was my mistake. I accidentally upload the wrong script. This one should work correctly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
Yes it works! Thanks mate.

Sent from my Calculator with Android.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nmyron:
Is there any way this could be done, yet, with the proper names? IE /sdcard and /sdcard/_InternalSD? Does that require modding the kernel? I tried swapping the two mount points in my vold.database, and changing the one for the internal storage fro, _ExternalSD to _InternalSD, but, it just wouldn't mount on reboot.
[HTC EVO 3D] murusmaximus:
I went into my local Sprint store today to pre-order the Evo 3D. All I had to do was give them my name, cell number, and e-mail address and I was added to the list. No deposit needed. I asked about getting the yearly upgrade promotional pricing. He said I had a $75 credit due June 1st, but they would most likely manually override it in the system. He gave me a direct number to call to try and get this taken care of.

I just got off the phone, and it was a piece of cake. There wasn't even any menus to go through, the CS rep picked up the phone on the first ring - must be a direct line. Anyway, she asked me a few security questions and then I told her what I was calling about. She said they will put me down to get the $199 promotional pricing not only for my line, but also the other line my girlfriend uses. Said it should take 24-48 hours in the system and they will call me back Wednesday to confirm it. I'm sure your account has to be in good standing to get taken care of. I was thoroughly impressed. The rep at the store told me to stop back up next week and they should know more about the release date.

Here is the direct line if anyone needs it: (877)775-4886

Two thumbs up for Sprint. That was effortless.
[HTC EVO 3D] dadoc04:
Good stuff man.... glad to hear that they took care of you. Also, good job posting the phone number for others to call. Hopefully others have success. The more folks that get this phone and the more awesome it will be.

Sent from my HTC Evo
[HTC EVO 3D] test878:
Its nice you have a good local store, but all the stores around me are terrible. I called in to confirm I could pre order the 3D in the store (as some arent doing accepting preorders yet) and asked what if I needed my account info (as my father owns the account). Left on my lunch break as I work 5 days a week and wasnt going to wait a week to get my preorder in. Arrive to find ~5 customers. I take a seat and wait as all the reps are busy (3). It took me over an hour to talk to a rep and do a 5 minute preorder, which the rep wasnt even sure about how to do it, and she wanted my PIN which I was told on the phone I didnt need.

They didnt ask for my email, only phone number, name, and PIN.

Anyone know if/where you can check the status/confirmation of a preorder? As i am weary that it was done right and really dont want to find out it was done wrong or go back to the store unless its to get my evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Did you get any type of receipt or put any money down? Why not just go to Best Buy or Radio Shack. All you need is $50 to put down and you will walk out with a gift card and a receipt for your pre-order. No info needed with your Sprint account until you go pickup the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] murusmaximus:
I just like dealing with my local sprint store. They have always been very helpful with any issues I have had. I didn't want to put any money down if it wasn't required. I didn't get a receipt, but he said I will get an email confirmation in 24-48 hours. I didn't think it was that hard to give them my phone #, name, and gmail account. Plus this way, I am now guaranteed the promotional pricing. Not sure I could get that with Radio Shack or Best Buy.
[HTC EVO 3D] test878:
yes i got a receipt that only mentions the $50 gift card purchase and then a separate print out of a confirmation number, but i would like to double check that as the rep (apparently) stopped half way through and realized she was preordering the htc view and not the evo3d, so if theres anyway of checking online I'd very much appreciate it. Plus she needed help a few times from another associate, so assuming this gets as popular as the original evo... I'd like to make sure my preorder is correct.
[HTC EVO 3D] crabjoe:
Thanks Bro!! Called the number, got my upgrade reinstated till I want to use it and it was painless!!

Now I just need to see if the EVO 3D can be software S-Off, wait till see what the Within (SGS2) looks like, or I can switch to another carrier....
[HTC EVO 3D] Elganja:
worked like a charm for me too, thanks OP
[HTC EVO 3D] wjason:
I will be keeping that phone #!! Thanks so much OP - able to use my wife's upgrade to get my Evo as soon as it comes out instead of waiting until August!

:D:D:D:D:D:D:cool::cool:
[HTC EVO 3D] aronslusa:
What did you tell the CS rep? Just that you're looking to upgrade to the EVO 3d, but your line isn't eligible for the full discount?
[HTC EVO 3D] djdisturbed:
BTW, If you call that number now, and your upgrade was supposed to be in june, you have to cal back on june 1st, there system does not allow them to push the upgrade when its only a few days away from the month it was supposed to be, but on the first of the month it allows them to do it once the "silver upgrade" is available on your account, according to the person I just talked to from that number
[HTC EVO 3D] Zabalba:
I can confirm I was able to reset the upgrade on my partners account. So now we are looking forward to two EVO 3Ds :D
[HTC EVO 3D] aronslusa:
So if my upgrade is July something... I should probably wait until then?

I have one that is the $75 eligible upgrade right now, could probably call on that maybe.

I'm just curious as to what people are saying, like are you just saying, "Hey I'm looking to get the EVO 3d when it comes out..." to that affect?
[HTC EVO 3D] bsg411:
I can confirm this works too. I called that number and was told that since my partial upgrade isn't till November and my full upgrade isn't till September 2012 that I could not get the upgrade. I then called the same number again and talked to another rep and explained to them that there nothing defective with my current evo and I know I not eligible for a upgrade but I simply requested a manual override of my upgrade eligibility and they did it for me !! Took about an 30 minutes but it worked. If your eligible for a partial upgrade this process take like 5 minutes tops !! Thanks to the OP.

p.s. I think the buzz word is manual override !!
[HTC EVO 3D] aronslusa:
I'll be trying this tomorrow.... Thanks man!
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
I wouldn't man. July MIGHT be when the Evo 3D is released or June I don't know. But one month is easier to wait out. I think Sprint only allows for one manual override per line. I would save that override for the future.

From my Gingerbread Hero.
[HTC EVO 3D] aronslusa:
July of next year is when im have the $150 upgrade renewal possible.

I purchased my EVO last July, sold it back to sprint (should've ebayed it) and now am having issues with my Hero. I'm going to move away from CM on my hero to see if thatll change anything.

It randomly powercycles, it won't send or receive texts sometimes, and is just a pita! Lol

With all this talk of HTC locking the bootloader and all the speculation, I may just jump ship and move away from HTC all together.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
You know, I actually never got my email for the pre order...
[HTC EVO 3D] aronslusa:
I pre ordered the Samsung Nexus S 4G from Best Buy.... bought the $50 gift card and everything... Never got the call when they came in.
[HTC EVO 3D] aronslusa:
Got one of our lines bumped up to the full upgrade eligibility, and was told to try calling back in July to see about getting another one done.

The gentleman I talked to said it is a "program they are currently running, and he is unsure when they will stop this promotion."

Thanks for posting this, you helped me a ton!
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
For those of us the reps won't do this for if you only gotta wait a lil bit it isn't to bad cause gonna take a min for it to be rooted probally tried twice so far my.second line they can give me a extra 70 for a upgrade taking if to 145 and can't reset my primary line I can upgrade in Sept ...
