I updated to WhatsApp Messenger. V 2.6.9743, and contacts for whatsapp is still not syncing properly with my contacts. My telephone number and the whatsapp icon appears as a seperate list in my contacts which is empty,and I can't copy to it...
[Xoom Themes and Apps] simzhewei:
I take it back.... I must've restarted or something and then it started working.

I installed Whats App 2.7.76 yesterday AFTER installing Handsent SMS (just to try again to see if I could SMS working).

I didn't uninstall Handsent before I tried Whats App, which previously refused point blank to see any of my contacts. This time it immediately saw them all. Wonder if Handsent helped at all? Anyway I'll leave it on in case it did! Worth a try anyhow if anyone has had trouble with Whats App.

Thanks man, but sorry, it is not work on Galaxy tab 8.9 WiFi only
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ray1234:
What's not working? The latest version should be fine for tablets.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] atat:
not for all tablets, i have XOOM 3G and Galaxy tab 8.9 Wifi only.

it is working fine on XOOM but not working on Galaxy.

if you are sure about WiFi only please inform us about correct steps.

i tried a lot of times and times and times :confused:
[Xoom Themes and Apps] atat:
thanks Q80

it is working fine on Galaxy tab 8.9 WiFi now. :D

i used my backup pro app and same steps in first page from Q80

note:

Cell phone and Tab should be rooted.

Steps:

1- Open "MyBackup Pro" app on your cell phone> Choose "Backup"> Then "Applications & Media" >then "Local (/mnt/sdcard)" > Open "Apps" list> choose" WhatsApp(.." and press ok> It will show you the backup name .. change it if you would like or press ok > Asks you for the type of backup .. choose "APKs+DATA"> Wait till it says "Done".

2- Open Root explorer on your cell phone> Go to (mnt/sdcard/) then copy the "rerware" folder and paste it in your sdcard> Unmount your sdcard and mount it to your Xoom.

3- Open Root explorer on your Xoom> Copy the folder that you have pasted in your sdcard before and paste it in (mnt/sdcard).

4- Open "MyBackup pro" app on your Xoom > Choose "Restore" > Then "Applications & Media" >then "Local (/mnt/sdcard)"> Choose your backup file name> wait till it says "Done".

small note in step 4:

when you install whatsapp don't press on OPEN, you should press on Done

after that mybackup pro will continue restoring data.

5- Reboot and enjoy!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ray1234:
Yes, you should be able to get whatsapp running on all tablets now, although it still has to be via the backup method... it still won't recognise non-phone tablets for registration.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] modmatt:
I probably managed to find a solution for the contacts problem. it's pretty simple and works for me on my transformer wifi.

few easy steps:

1. On Anroid go to Settings > Accounts & sync > Click on the Whatsapp account.

2. On the upper right corner there is a button to force a sync. Hit it multiple times (like 5)

3. afterwards go into whatsapp, hit menu button > settings > more

4. click on "show all contacts"

At that point i returned to the whatsapp-mainscreen and all my contacts were properly named.i closed whatapp several times the normal way and even forcestopped it via Settings>Apps.

please be aware that this is untested on a xoom, as i have a transformer (though it's a wifi only device as well). you should also know, that i translated the menu options from German, so it might be, that the specific captions differ slightly.

if this works for you feel free to distribute the solution! a post just to say thanks is not needed, but a short hint if this works on a xoom as well might be worth it. ;)

so long, merry christmas for everyone, modmatt
[Xoom Themes and Apps] neblap:
Can confirm that this works on my Xoom wifi.

Many thanks modmatt :)

==================================================

Hi, I am trying to replicate this on my Kindle Fire . I got the pro version of Myback on both cell (non-rooted) and my tablet (rooted)

a) On the cell, there's no such option "choose "APKs+DATA">" within the Back up option in Mybackup. There are only two types of backups ( Apps or Data)

- This option only appears in the "Restore" option

Thanks .. sorry for hijacking the thread... I really want to get whatspp on Kindle Fire ( it's WIFI only as well)

PS: what are the name of the 3 files when asked to choose "APKs+DATA" for BACKUP .... thanks

Can someone please upload those TitaniumBackup files for WhatsApp because I don't have an Android phone...
[Xoom Themes and Apps] neblap:
It will not do you any good as the backup will be tied to the phone number of the person who backed it up.

Is it possible that you could borrow an android phone for 1/2 hour and setup Whatsapp using your sim card? Back that up and transfer it to your Xoom
[Xoom Themes and Apps] tdwepe:
That might be possible. I'll try to borrow one. Thanks for the info, I forgot that I need my own sim otherwise I'll be on his WhatsApp account on my device.

How can I mod the LG Launcher for CM7?
[Nook Color General] holgalee:
Hey peeps. Does anyone know which apps that came with phiremod 6.2 can be uninstalled? I love phiremod as it makes my NC fly, but there are some apps that I really don't use, such as Email, Google Search, Music & ADWLauncher. I believe Sound Recorder doesn't work on the NC, but the Phone app cannot be removed, IIRC.

So is it safe to remove all these? I like to keep the apps in my phone and tablet to only those that I really use. TIA.
[Nook Color General] holgalee:
Anyone? :D
[Captivate General] taylor_towney:
I have my captivate running 2.3.3 mosaic III ROM the battery life is excellent with a little help from SETCPU but when it fully charges the phones says the battery is full but when i unplug it the battery percentage display says it is at 98% did a battery stats wipe. Just wondering do i need to calibrate my battery also to fix the tiny little problem. by the way i fail to mention running Purple-licious ginger style theme. This is the only issue I'm having:D
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
not every battery has the same capacity, 2 oem batteries either.

there is a 2% difference between your batteries.

if you calibrate to the lower battery, the other will show 100% when you put it in, though in comparrison it would actually be 102% ....

its not worth worrying about.

i have 4 batteries i play with... 2 oem and 2 extended... now that confuses the phone!
[Captivate General] victorbpe:
this is a normal behavior by samsung.
[Captivate General] comingup:
Fully discharging and recharging your battery over the course of a few days should calibrate it to your liking, however Samsung does have a little feature to prevent damage to the battery by overcharging. This is normal and should be of no worry to you as long as you are getting decent battery life.

You can also try charging to full, removing cable and shutting down phone, then charging while off until the battery says 100%. Repeat three times and wipe battery stats.

Hope this helps.
[Defy General] Nietzschean:
Hi guys.

I wonder how I can access the phone storage space through windows explorer, I only seem to be able to get access to the SD card when I plug the usb in?

(running CM7)
[Defy General] zyxwvut:
I don't think its possible. To access phone storage space use ADB. If you are familiar with linux commands, use ADB and enter ADB shell. From here you can play by all linux rules and by obtaining su, you can pretty much do anything
[Defy General] Jefgenowitsch:
why don't you try dropbox?
[Defy General] ABC_Universal:
I remember there is kind of root explorer for windows. I can't locate it now but you may do a search for it.
[Defy General] kingme__hu:
I think you can through ADB,

adb shell

su

cd sdcard

ls

now you can see your files in your SDcard...

if I have misunderstanded youe meaning????

I'm a chinese vegetablebird....and my english is very.....
[Defy General] dlhxr:
maybe he wants to have the access to the phone memory through usb?

He can now view and edit files on his sdcard.
[Defy General] Nietzschean:
I can put mp3's on my sd card, I don't know how to store them on my phone :(
[Defy General] Muznyu:
If your phone is rooted you can copy files from the memory card to the phone's memory with a file explorer which has root privileges (Root Explorer, Yaffs Explorer, etc.). But I think it doesn't make any sense, because if you want to listen to those mp3 songs, your music player doesn't have direct access to phone's memory.
[Defy General] zyxwvut:
I prefer ADB shell or Terminal Emulator just because it's funner that way but the obviously easier route is to use a file explorer with root privelages. I like to feel like a geek and do it the hard way
[Defy General] Nietzschean:
I just don't get what the point is of having 1.5gb of storage space on the phone if you can't acces it?
[Defy General] carlsberg112:
Try droidexplorer , search for it ..
[Defy General] farsight73:
The point of 1.5GB phone storage is for you to install apps from the martket or other side loading apps. Accessing to SDcard for other media contents is more likely logical indeed.

But if you want to put mp3 into your phone internal storage, then this is another not so logic as you can have it in your SDcard with still the phone apps can access it rather easily.

However... if you have a short mp3 ringtones and want them to be in the phone internal storage. This one is considered making sense. Well you can do it by using root explorer to copy/move your mp3 ringtones to your phone internal storage.

Steps required:

1) rooted defy

2) root explorer installed and working properly

3) have your ringtones ready in your SDcard.

4) launch root explorer and make sure you're under read/write full access

5) copy/move your ringtones to system/media/... ringtones,notifications,alarms (depending which of your choice) and give them access right as per the default tones settings.

6) You need to delete internal sound .db in data/data/com.android.provider.media/databases.

7) exit and restart your phone. This restart required for the phone to recreate the database you deleted to the latest updated one according to the intenal storage contents.

8) Check your phone ringtones in settings for the existance of your newly installed ringtones..

Note: And of course you can still access your phone internal storage thru your root explorer app. It's more like it practical than for you to find a PC and get adb shell to gain access to your phone internal storage.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Jay2487:
So I used the cwm recovery restore to return to stock, but my gps is still shotty. I tried Krylon's fix and gpsfix but Krylon's was for 2.3 and the menus look nothing alike. I thought about flashing the cwm fix but being for 2.3 I'm pretty sure it's not going to work. Has anyone else had this problem after returning to stock? Found a solution?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] strung:
Did you flash to Gingerbread build? I did that on one of my g2x's and the GPS seemed to start not locking even after flashing back to stock. It would find satellites but take 10 or 20 minutes to lock on. I tried all the GPS stuff and nothing really worked. GPSfix seemed to help but hard to say for sure.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Jay2487:
Yeah I flashed Bionix, the the leak, now back to stock. I do gpsfix then go to navigation and it works until I leave navigation and come back in. I have to run gpsfix every time before I go to navigation or it never gets a lock.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Jay2487:
so i get on t mobile live support chat and the guy runs through a list of the simple stuff, then tells me to download gps test and somehow it makes the settings stick. dont know how but it works
[T-Mobile LG G2x] strung:
Update: even a stock G2x does this. When AGPS data is cleared it takes awhile "cold start" to prime the GPS. Running GPS Test or GPS Status or the #*1809*#999 GPS test for awhile primes the GPS.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoseppi:
I had a great working rom of CG7. Everything was working great. Then I installed the Battery Icon mod 1.0

I rooted my phone with Z4root, and used the rom manager from clockworks to apply the CyanogenMod 7 rom.

I have ADB installed, but I can never get it to connect to my phone. I was about to give up when I found Z4root. The use of z4root and rom manager made it so simple.

I had it all working great, loving it.....

Then I mess it up with a battery widget. :mad:

I performed a backup of my stock rom from within rom manager, and it is saved on the sd card. I can't access it because of being stuck in a loop.

If I pull the card, and use an adapter I can read it on my laptop most likely. But what to read it with, to apply it back to the phone?

I have superoneclick installed, but don't see how to use it either...

But since it appears I half to use ADB and I have been having no luck with it, is there any other options for me to try?

I thought I could use some key command such as home plus power to bring up the commands to read my recovery, wipe data and restore but am not figuring it out.

Maybe I'm just freaking out since I'm going on no sleep, but can anyone please help an eager to learn noob out?

I'd really appreciate it. Apologies ahead of time if this is the wrong sub-forum, but it looked the closest for this topic.

Thanks,

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoseppi:
Sorry for any bad language. I edited it out, sorry.

I had bothered to look around for about an hour, and all threads kept pointing me back to using ADB push commands which I haven't been having much luck with.

Do you know of a better way to fix a boot looping hero? Or can at least point me in the right direction, I can and am willing to learn more, but just keep running into the same answers.

Again, sorry about any language, but if you can spare a link in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drunkpilot:
Have you tried pulling the battery and then restarting the phone by holding down the volume key ( down) and the power Burton at the same time? This will put you in the boot loader and if you push the" home" Burton that should put you into recovery. From there, wipe data, cache, system and either restore a backup ( IF you did a nandroid), or flash a new Rom.

Then, reboot.

You need to do lot more reading of different threads because you will see that bootloops are a common occurrence. Just because something is hero cdma does not mean it will work with your particular Rom. Battery mods are built for that specific Rom and that specific build ( like 5/23 aosp/cm7); a battery mod from April probably won't work.

Flashing IS a gateway drug!

*hooray*

"holding down the volume key and the power Burton at the same time"

This did the trick this time, phew

This was the menu I was looking for. I reflashed my stock rom and all is well.

Then I just reflashed CM7 and will be avoiding the battery app. Lost all my settings because I hadn't backed up my CM7 rom (doh, live and learn)

Yes I can see that flashing IS a gateway drug! Once you get more comfortable and start understanding it, it is addictive to keep going further and further lol.

I'll keep messing with ADB, as I did get it to see the phone, just it has been 15 years since my days of messing with basically MS-DOS for all my command lines.

I was able to see the phone at one point but keep having trouble getting to the tools directory to start via DOS.

I'm hoping as I read more that maybe there is a better GUI for rooting and modifying other than ADB.

Thanks for the help, now I feel a little better equipped to go further. :D

I have finally jumped on to the android bandwagon and I love it!!!!!

The LG Optimus One is an awesome phone....as per my 1 week experience

Here are a few issues I am facing hope you guys will be able to help me out.

1. I have the default SD card in the device and everything works fine. Except that the SD card does not get detected by the LG PC suite. So I am unable to sync music and photos and videos with the phone. the PC suite says "SD card not detected". I have not tried removing the SD card fearing that the phone might become unstable or some other problem, cos many apps are installed on the SD card.

2. I want to install some of the default apps. esp. bollywoodji, gives me bunkum updates that too in the notification area! the latest one being "Big B wants dance Lessons" and "Soha's jealous at heart"......I don't care!!!!!!

anyways tried uninstalling the app but it doesn't allow...Pls help

3. Most of the apps provided by LG and lot others installed by me are on the SD card, now I am planning to move to a 8gb or 16gb SD card, is moving the stuff from this SD card to the new one as simple as copy-paste?

Thanks for your help.

Hello everyone!

I really need some help on this one.

I accidentally deleted some important system files (like the usb-driver). Now it seems that I can't even connect with fastboot to my SE Arc devices.

Is there any solution on how I could flash a new image on my phone? The phone is not recognized anymore in the regular SE Software Suite. Currently the phone is functioning but I would like to update it to 2.3.3

Many thanks in advance for good advices!
[Xperia Arc General] NeoCream:
Can no one help me? When I try to connect to the SE PC Companions tool and make a repair, the companion-tool refuses because my ROM is modified (rooted).

So this means that when a software tries to connect to the phone (via holding back-key+power on = green LED light) the software recognizes my phone... is there a way how I could use this (access-method) to manually flash the ROM?
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
Look for Flashtool on the x10 forum (and I think that there's a link on here somewhere.. ) then you can reflash the system to your phone)..

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zexter:
So, I've been looking at kernels to flash (stock ec05) and reading around on the different kernels, and I'm wondering if any of them work with a stock (rooted) rom. I used the ReRFS to get back to stock.

I've tried the syndicate kernel and got an infinite boot loop (tried several times)... Was barely able to get back.

I don't mind the stock interface (touchwiz), I would just like to be able to get the processor to 1.2ghz. Do any of the kernels work well with stock?

[edit] The only thing keeping me from staying on the custom roms is they all FC when I try to edit a contacts ringtone. I've tried pushing myfiles.apk (several myfiles.apk's from multiple sources), but it won't install. But like I said, I really don't mind the stock interface anyway.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Yes, Genocide. Also for your boot animation problem you pm'd me about, use this boot cleaner to get rid of the stock animation, then you can flash a custom boot animation.
