hi!

i want to sync facebook accounts only with people on my phone app. but, when i active sync (facebook app / for htc sense) it just add alot of people i dont want in my phone book! i chossed to sync only with existing contacts. the facebook names are in English and contacts name are in Hebrew. so i want to go each contact and link it to his facebook account. now it will add alot to my phone book i cant even delete....

some1 have this problem? how i fix it? i had this problem with all roms! (and i used alot! from 1.32 base and up to kingdom base)
[Desire HD General] lambomanx1:
If you press menu, and look for "View" or "Display options", in Settings I think, you'll see that you can change which contacts you want to view. Facebook, Phone, SIM, Google. If you deselect Facebook, it takes all those contacts away, leaving you with the rest, which will still be attached to Facebook.

I had to copy all my contacts from my sim then facebook would sync photos and info across gradually

What do you mean by phone application? Your phone app gets your contacts from the People app, straight and simple. Please elaborate :)

[Xperia Arc General] Super Chimp:
When I was using my GS 2 for a bit I installed the official Amazon shopping app. When I moved back to the Arc I could find no sign of it and I cannot think why it isn't available for the Arc. It made me wonder how many other apps do not appear for the Arc for some reason?

Both handsets are UK versions and both are running 2.3.3 so is this something to do with SE having their own channel in the market?
[Xperia Arc General] Suhaib Haidar:
I'm having the same problem with my Xperia arc,

Some say the problem is from Google side, and the reason is to re-arrange the Market again
[Xperia Arc General] Super Chimp:
Do you mean Google need to rearrange the market again or its because they have rearranged the market?
[Xperia Arc General] TheArcane:
I can't get a lot of official Google apps, like latest version of Maps. I'm new to Android so I have no idea whether it's a regional thing (Israel) or whether it depends on the device.
[Xperia Arc General] Suhaib Haidar:
I mean Google need to rearrange the market again,

BTW can you please try to search in both market about the for example Whatsapp because it's not appear in Xperia arc market?
[Xperia Arc General] zonetrooper90:
Some of the limits are indeed a legional thing, but I think some of it is limited by your service provider for a specific device...
[Xperia Arc General] Suhaib Haidar:
Hmmm,

It's the same issue in the Arabs country, a lot of product isn't available in the market

but when I use the US market all is appeared normally

You can use the US market only if you root your device and install the market unlock
[Xperia Arc General] Super Chimp:
Well both my Arc & GS 2 were SIM free and running on the same network so it seems more likely it is some other reason in my case?
[Xperia Arc General] Suhaib Haidar:
The limitation isn't by your service provider it's by regions

Because Google has create a separate market content for each region
[Xperia Arc General] av4tar:
the arc i had came with whatsapp pre-installed, the SE tab in the market says free but when you search for it or look under popular it is a paid for app! could this be a bug?
[Xperia Arc General] Suhaib Haidar:
before updating my arc the Whatsapp application is pre-installed, but when I update

my mobile phone to the latest version [ 2.3.3 ] the application has been deleted,

and I'm not be able to find it in the market

also the problem is with all Angry bird version, it's not appeared at market !
[Xperia Arc General] zonetrooper90:
Maybe the Amazon app is compatible with your GS 2, but not the Arc? It could be that simple...

[HTC Inspire 4G] d9vabder:
I was able to change my splashscreen once, but changing it again doesn't seem to work. I place the PD98IMG.zip in the root of my SD card, overwriting the previous, and when I boot into bootloader I just see something come up like "parsing PD98IMG.zip" and it just finishes without giving me the option to volume up or down to actually change/load the new PD98IMG.zip file. Any ideas?

1.

I've tried deleting it completely/loading new file and I still have the same splashscreen.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Symmetric:
Are you rooted? I've seen this behavior when S-ON is still active
[HTC Inspire 4G] d9vabder:
Yes, I am rooted.
[HTC Inspire 4G] koekiemonsterjr:
When you put the file in the PD98IMG.zip, did you unzip and then re-zip? If so, you should just open the zip file with 7zip/winrar/whatever so you can see inside, and then just paste your .img file inside. Then close it.

Other than that, we need more details. What process exactly are you doing. Are you creating your own .img with nbimg, or using someone else's already made .img
[HTC Inspire 4G] d9vabder:
I am using some one else's .img file (mainly from the splashscreen emporium post) and I just move the file from my download folder to the root of my sdcard and click OK to overwrite with root explorer. I havent tried zipping and unzipping yet on the computer, but ill let you know if it works.
[HTC Inspire 4G] koekiemonsterjr:
what i meant was don't unzip/rezip. Just browse the zip file and drop your .img in it. But since you're going with someone else's zip, i have no idea where the problem could be.

if you really want the splash screen, have a look at this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1059520

it's more difficult than just grabbing someone else's, but it's honestly not too bad, especially since he gives step-by-step instructions

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nurra:
Woo hoooo
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chronicles404:
Charge the battery, run it down to zero, charge to full, repeat for the first dozen ours so times, battery life has been improving in each cycle and I also recommend you do the same ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbrown77:
But isn't flattening Lithium Ion batteries bad for them? If you search the internet it often says not to over discharge as well as under charging them also increasing their life span. The older NiMh and NiCd batteries benefited from full discharge and recharge.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David Horn:
If there's one way to send your battery to an early grave, this is it.

Modern batteries are limited by their number of discharge/recharge cycles. Letting the battery drop to 80% and then recharging is the same as letting it drop to 20%.

However, allowing the capacity to drop to zero is a stupid thing to do, since this permanently damages the battery. The battery has its own controller which goes some way towards protecting it, but it's a trade-off between shortening the lifetime and the actually runtime you can get from the battery.

So, to summarise: you're fine letting the battery drop to 10-20% before recharging. Do not allow it to fall below this too often, as you'll shorten the lifespan.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nobnut:
Yes it is 'bad' for Li-on batteries to be run down to zero. Ignore any posts you see saying otherwise.

Just charge it and use it. When possible, top up charge. Li-on batteries do not have memories and do not need to be 'conditioned'.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chronicles404:
Hmm, my bad, my Apologies, seems there's some way to go yet for me, I assumed this was the case as I had horrid life out straight out of the box, these discharge cycles helped tremendously, though with that being said I tend to not leave it below 15% now before I charge.

Oh well, live and learn.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CEPi:
Never discharge the battery to less then 10-15% if possible.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nurra:
Aww crap I discharged it to zero last night. I thought out make sense cause back when I used the nexus one, there was this method of conditioning battery by discharging the battery. Ah well thanks guys
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crypticc:
Won't hurt that much. Contrary to what people say li-ion has limit on amount of recharge applied from whatever level it was applied. Also the phone cuts off before dangerous low levels are reached. However frequently doing this should be avoided.

The biggest danger is leaving phone in discharged state for long period of time as the background discharge (e.g. Power on off button, clock, etc.) will flatten the battery, without the protection circuits and completely ruin it; charging while hot (above 50 to 60 c) will also send battery to an early grave.

We covered the different 1600 batteries in that thread in my sig way back. I use a 1600 and got lucky it was one of the good ones.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbobaggies:
Here is the story...

Was using Insertcoin 1.0.5, but decided I wanted to try the nightly build .37.

- Backed up using Titanium, and saved stuff I want to keep from SD card.

- Format SD card using GParted, with 1GB EXT4 partition at end.

- Go into CM recovery, do full wipes as suggested, install ROM.

After install, and setting up Wi-Fi, gmail account, go into market app and it is trying to download all apps I previously had installed, but after a while I get the following error message for every app "Download was unsuccessful. Please try again later". I tried clearing market data & cache, but still the same problem.

Since this happened last night I decided to re-format with GParted, and re-install Insertcoin 1.0.5 with full wipes, but it was exactly the same. I can download .apk and install, and I can restore using Titanium as well, just always the "Download was unsuccessful. Please try again later" error in market.

I have even gone back to Reflex S as this is the ROM I was using previously, and like best, however I digress, the problem still remains.

I was wondering if it could be a problem with Android market, maybe even my internet, I rebooted router etc, but as I said, can download using the phone we browser, and install .apk manually...
