It's not that I can't use it its the fact sometimes it locks up ky phone forcing me to clear cage to fix the problem I think my best bet would be to install the Rom again I guess XD :-P ( had problems with this on 2.2 stock so I head its eituer that or a hardware problem

Maybe I have no problems coz I use GSM only network. Or maybe the problem is in radio firmware... I'm using 47.51.35.17U_7.13.35.05 right now.
[Legend General] madcat340:
i think mines different my baseband version is different ( if thats the radio ) 47.26.35.04u_7.05.35.26l

well thats what is says (i'm a noob) but if its the radio should i update it? If so do i need to wipe cache and user stuff i'm just wondering.
[Legend General] cyRq:
Do a Nandroid backup a try it yourself. You don't need to wipe before flashing a radio image.
[Legend General] BlaY0:
Where you from? What provider?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jorge_peralta:
Hello all I had a problem that has been bugging. Me for a while now.

I have changed the user agent in skyfire,stock browser,and dolphin HD and none of those browsers change the webpage from mobile to desktop. The thing that bothers me is that my wife's Samsung indulge does that perfectly. Using dolphin HD. So I wanted to know wheather mine was a deffective phone or all G2x have that problem? And why will the wife's Samsung. Do it but mine can't (using the same version of browser)

I have reset the phone twice and nothing..

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gasturbineman:
My moto droid's screen died. I have the common right 1/3 sreen dead problem. Because of this I can not open the lock screen. The phone has since been deactivated, so i can do what ever I want with it.

I want to root it so I can use screencast 0.4 to view it to make sure I got everything off it. I can't root it because I do not have USB debugging enabled. I can not enable debugging because I can not get past the unlock screen. But I can not use screencast because it is not rooted. So I am in a pickle. I have read a lot of XDA forums and others and still have not found a solution to remotely view my phone, at least that I can find.

I have Android Developer installed on my PC and I have played with it a little. I am trying to learn more everyday.

I also know that the adb needs to be running, and I have yet to figure out if it is running or not. I have also read that you need to stop and restart adb before screencast will operate properly.

So with all that info, does anyone have suggestions how I can view my phone and interact with it to make sure I know what all my programs were and save any data that are program related.

I have searched for keyboard unlock codes to no success. I also know that my android market library tells me most of what is installed.

So any suggestions??

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] SuperDeform:
First of all what did u do to it? Spilled water, dropped it, installed something what?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gasturbineman:
Nothing!

Absolutely nothing.

I downloaded the lastest update, and about a week later the screen behaved very erratic. 2 weeks later I lost the right 3rd of the screen (touch only, not image) Could still get in by opening keyboard, then swiping the lock. 2 weeks later the swipe no longer works, keyboard open or closed.

This loss of touch response is very common. I have read about several other people with the same problem. It has nothing to do with any updates, as I have read about someone with this problem over a year ago. It has to be electrical. As an engineer, I have inferred that the touch screen has 3 circuits for 3 zones on the screen. 1 circuit must have gone belly up. So my right third does not respond.

Also most victums report erratic screen behavior just prior to loosing some of the screen.

So that is what I know.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s1lenz:
Probably a stupid question, but can you damage, or wear out the internal memory by flashing the phone over and over? I think I've flashed over 20-30 times by now, I'm just wondering if I'm running the risk of causing damage by overflashing. Thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Honestly, flashing every possible second of every day for 2 years, you night star to notice some degrade, but the number of write cycles for the nand in the phone, you wont notice anything.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] movieaddict:
I was curious about this too..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hur8111:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ln100:
I would suspect that the internal memory would have the same typical lifespan of any other form of flash memory. I have heard varying degrees of expected life - but you will probably have another phone before you get to that point.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Craigh83:
Vibrant doesn't have nand memory, just an internal sd card
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Pretty much all flash storage used in devices right now is nand flash. However, the control of of that nand, or flash memory, differs from application to application. But, it is nand flash storage ;-)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danielpc:
It might have an adverse effect on your ability to score with the opposite sex. During your next night of bar-hopping or date night with your significant other, try explaining the purpose and the reason for the need to flash frequently and watch most women disappear. Such technical intricacies about custom ROMS, kernels and mods are like kryptonite to them.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vibrantnew-b:
Just ask her if she'd rather have you at home working on EDT stuff or getting **** faced at some bar. I bet I know the answer. My wife doesn't understand the whole flashing thing either. But she does understand a flash addiction is much better than a meth addiction.

[Epic 4G General] cconwing:
I was just wondering if anyone else running the frozen syndicate rom had a choppy UI for the first like 10-20 mins after startup.

I close all running applications and clear level 2 ram and even set the setcpu higher than normal and its still choppy. The interface can sometimes take like 2-3 seconds to catch up. :/

Any ideas or similar stories?

[LG Optimus 2x] tombaker1:
Seems there is enough similarities of the phones, if not Exact....that the threads could be combined.

The reason I think it is critical to combine is that it becomes a hassle to check each thread to see what is good info...we have double postings essentially having two groups talking and solving the same problems.

Since the phones are the same hardware, you could argue that each custom ROM could have its own group. To me: same hardware = same group

I am fine with locking this thread....if I knew how to go about it.
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
My vote goes for: NO. Keep them as is. Two groupings
[LG Optimus 2x] tombaker1:
Curious to why?....I obviously can not think of a reason to not combine.
[LG Optimus 2x] Aaberg:
Incompatible OSs. That settles it for

now.
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
Incompatibale OS

Incompatible RIL

So active users like me, have to warn 1321312434324+ people to double check what model they have beforce flashing.

Also this may give 12312342424+ bricked phones....
[LG Optimus 2x] MillyMoo106:
Not until there is a way to make the Rom's compatible for both phones and the majority of dev's implement it. The fact that we can't run the leaked gingerbread G2X Rom says it really
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
No, they need to be seperate as the software isn't compatible.
[LG Optimus 2x] noxxious:
same outside, different inside. it's a NO for me. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] awf:
Couldn't agree more hence we just separated the two!

So happy it stays this way :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Guys, this is why recovery supports "assert(getprop)" to prevent software being installed on the incorrect phone. This is why you can't install CM for a Desire on a Nexus One.

Also, it's pretty easy to label stuff.

So I think that reason is invalid.

However, I do think there should be two dev sections and common Q&A/General/Themes & Apps sections.

But then I look at all of the nonsense posts that go on in the G2x section and think perhaps we're lucky... ;)

Nevertheless, I voted in the poll.
[LG Optimus 2x] awf:
I'm aware of what is possible, but it makes no sense, don't want to be bothered with the G2X stuff and clog op this forum :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
It's not just that, the differences mean an answer for something on the O2X can cause problems for a G2X.

If I told someone to install CMR via ROM Manager, turn their phone off hold vol- and power up, on an O2X it would boot into recovery, on a G2X it would wipe the phone as ROM Manager fake flashes.
[LG Optimus 2x] vlad88667:
Why isn't this thread closed already? It's clear the two phones are different, and everyone agrees.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Exactly

NO NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO KEEP THEM IN DIFFERENT FORUMS

When this O2x thread open it was getting hammered with G2x questions etc which people with O2x didn't want to see or know about, if you wanna look at G2x go to there forum :p

I DONT WANNA SEE G2X
[LG Optimus 2x] awf:
Yes would be fine to lock it...

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StillDRE:
Hi,

Just a simple question, how is your batterytime?

My phone is rooted, running latest Infin1ty and got wireless and network dataconnection (2G) on all them time.

The battery last for around 20-24 hours with normal usage, so I have to put it in the charger every night.

My rooted HTC Desire(old phone) with Oxygen last longer..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AtroX_cc:
After 15 hrs of moderate use I have 40%...rooted, with stock rom. Keep u poster, just bought the phone :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_Guy71:
20% remaining. The slow descent is while I am at work (3G off, wifi left on accidently but not connected to any networks.). The sharp decline is when I leave work, turn 3G on, and use Google Talk to chat on the way back home, about 45 minutes. I think I am having battery problems. :/

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abenn26:
The froyo captivate camera allowed for panoramic pictures. I have included a link to a youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeBrIcVWDrs that shows this being done on the sgs but it was the exact same for the captivate.

Recently I installed CM7, which is great...love it..etc, but I cannot find out how to use the panorama mode in this ROM. I have looked through the Q/A threads and CM7 FAQ's but have not found an answer to where this is or if it is still there.

Just FYI I am familiar with the current settings that it allows you to modify. I am not talking about any of those.

Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] little8020:
That is because the 2.2 camera is a samsung app and the CM7 is aosp android app. if you want panorama there are apps in the market that allows it i do believe
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
some people were using vignette. Never used it myself, but it probably has more options than the CM7 stock camera.

[myTouch 4G General] cu3anguy:
hey guys i was wondering since limewire is down which progam u guys use to get music from i need one ASAP and what are Must have Fun Apps to have?? ktb
[myTouch 4G General] neidlinger:
You can search the Android market for music download applications.

other that that piracy is off topics here @ XDA.
[myTouch 4G General] VibrantOwnr:
suggestion: clear your thread and request close because chances are you will get an infraction as this is illegal!
[myTouch 4G General] neidlinger:
If i were a mod i would let it go a bit more. There are some applications @ Amazon and in the Marketplace that are legal by Google's definition.

Once they start talking about other sites, it'd be locked.

but i'm not a mod.
[myTouch 4G General] TJBunch1228:
Yeah I would go with google music or amazon. Frostwire might be free but it's most likely illegal like Limewire. Good luck.
[myTouch 4G General] mackster248:
Just type in MP3 download in the market and you'll find at least 2 or 3 that do the exact same thing as limewire. They all work well.

Good luck.

And I hope people won't bash you and demand a mod to delete this as there is no way in hell no one in their lifetime has once downloaded music/movies/software etc for free...
[myTouch 4G General] conantroutman:
Just because its in the market does not mean we allow it here......

If you were asking about apps to legally download music then fine. As you mention limewire I'm guessing you don't wanna pay, therefore..............

Drumroll please..............

Does anyone know where I can find the Rogers .ftf file for the r800A?

Would using Sony Ericsson Update Service be able to do the same thing?

can someone with a bricked xperia play r800a at least tell me if the tool I posted above works?
[Xperia Play Android Development] thatsupnow:
That should work no problem there should be a repair option after you follow the steps they line out
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mozza2k11:
Rooting your phone will cause no problems. Its the removing of bloat after that should not have been removed that might cause problems. I removed all the apps on the safe apps to remove thread and caused no problems.

If your bootloader is unlocked you cannot use SEUS to recover or even get ota updates. You will have to flash your phone to recover it. If your bootloader is still locked then you can use SEUS to recover the play.

I was rooted with loads of bloat removed. Just used SUES to reinstall the original phone software. It will just download the files you removed after the root.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kLownish:
Today I was thinking about a way to swap the sd memory with the internal memory and have the dinc boot with sd memory first..making the partitions bigger..then I ran into this: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/swap-i9003-internal-sdcard-memory-with-external_sd/

Is this possible for us to do? Would there be any actual benefit, other than more space on the "internal drive"? Would it affect speed of programs or anything? Like I said, I was just thinking..I'm sure its been discussed before, and if there is an open thread for it I apologize. I did search, and I didn't come up with anything specific to the dinc. Any thoughts/opinions?
[Galaxy S II General] dinan:
If you're managing to kill apps that keep the phone awake, does it prevent you from receiving messages on eBuddy when the screen is off?
[Galaxy S II General] cmd512:
Interesting question. I had Advanced Task Killer running all last night, and I woke up to messages in eBuddy in the morning. So, my immediate answer to you would be "no," but this will probably take more testing.

Maybe, I'll set ATK to an aggressive 15 minute kill, and have someone message me after 15 minutes of idling with eBuddy running...

I have noticed that with eBuddy actively running, you cannot select it under ATK and kill it. You must exit out of eBuddy properly (Menu -> Exit) for its active process to shut down. Little did I know though... it would still float around in your "Cached processes" afterwards and keep your device Awake!
[Galaxy S II General] TMaLuST:
Well I've been using ATK since this morning and I can't find any change in Android OS ..

It's still high..

Anyway ATK reports that all the games I downloaded from gameshub are active..

And even if it kills them, they appear again in like 10 minutes.. It's really wierd
[Galaxy S II General] cmd512:
I don't use game hub, but I do have a bunch of games on my device, including the larger Gameloft games. And, I can say for a fact that I do not have any of them ever running in the background.

Something else is keeping them alive, and has nothing to do with ATK. ATK will only help to kill cached processes, but if something is launching them again, that's what you need to look into stopping.
[Galaxy S II General] Breece:
Well.. I do not like tools like the Advanced Task manager.. BUT looking at battery drainage it seems to do wonders!

8 hours of light usage (display 45 mins) --> 75% battery left

3g on (with JuiceDefender à 30 mins) + sync (so I receive whatsapp messages & mail etc)

Listened to music / radio for about 1-1.5 hours

Android OS is sadly still at 36%, Display at 22%

But this I can live with !

Thanks!

[edit]

It would obv. be nicer to be at 80+% without that Android bug... Ah, and I did delete / freeze all that Samsung crap with Titanium, didnt really help much! I can also recommend getting CPU spy to see how much your phone actually is in the sleep mode (around 80% for me!)
[Galaxy S II General] cmd512:
Yeah, I wouldn't run ATK unless I absolutely have to. Like I said in my first post, it is a "brute force" method of ensuring apps are completely closed out and there are no rogue cached processes keeping your device awake. Since I've installed it, the "solid Awake bar" phenomena is completely resolved... and in return, I get much better battery life.

And yes, this is of course on top of freezing just about everything Samsung and anything else I don't need or care to use.
[Galaxy S II General] Breece:
Couldnt agree more!

One questions, what is your "Android OS" % at?
[Galaxy S II General] cmd512:
8%... Display is at 62%, LOL. :p
[Galaxy S II General] Breece:
Interesting ^^ Oh well.. my battery life should improve but if it stays like this I am fine with it...
[Galaxy S II General] (•.•):
Oh Hope ?

Nah, i will try it ;)
[Galaxy S II General] rdy2go:
WORKED FOR ME AS WELL< EXCELLENT!!!

Task killer is a must

Uninstalling/freezing rogue Samsung apps is a must

ONLY THE COMBINATION WORKS and it works well indeed.
[Galaxy S II General] cigaro78:
Mmm bizarre! I was waiting for the hordes of people telling you that 'task killers' are unnecessary and stupid.

Thank you very much for your findings.
[Galaxy S II General] northstar00:
On my SG2 The android System process is eating almost all my battery! any solution for that?
[Galaxy S II General] cmd512:
Glad to hear it's working for you guys. With Advanced Task Killer running in the background, I haven't had the "solid Awake bar" reappear again... my Awake bar is always segmented and match up fairly well with my Screen on bar.

Idle battery life is very much acceptable now and definitely no worse than my SGS. :)
[Galaxy S II General] ph00ny:
I've always enjoyed your posting and i'm glad you didn't just jump on the bandwagon like everyone else. This is definitely the type of posting we need where everyone work together to solve/identify the issues at hand.
[Galaxy S II General] cmd512:
Appreciate the kind words. Like I said in my first post, many people much smarter than me/in-tune with Android have said it's unnecessary. But, you're right... there are way too many "DO THESE STEPS AND IT WILL FIX EVERYTHING" posts on here with 0 to little evidence to back up the claims. In the end, nothing beats thorough testing and proven results.

I for one hope 2.3.4 resolves this bug... ultimately, I'd like to not have to run ATK altogether. But for now, this is a solution that works.
[Galaxy S II General] rdy2go:
It works with Freezing/Uninstallin Samsung "bad apps" (WiFi Sharing, Social Hub, etc.). I suggest you emphasize that more in your initial post.

ATK itself helps but ATK is always late (30 minutes or one hour).

That's what I recommend to freeze/uninstall without crippling core functionality:

1	WiFi Sharing and WifiManager

2	Samsung apps (Social Hub, Days, Yahoo Finance, AP News, Games Hub, Readers Hub, Music Hub, AccuWeather)

3	Voice Command	Uninstalled using Titanium

It's based on my testing using OS Monitor / ATK - those apps tend to wake up phone for no reason even when you don't use them.

Now it's 24 hours with 4 hours of screen on, no Juice Defender etc.

It works better than SGS (one) despite huge screen and excellent speed.
