Hello guys,

I have a problem trying to install the custom rom from rendeiro2005

I rooted my phone, backed up everything using xRecovery. I have also changed my baseband to 2.1.55

When I try to install my rom with xRecovery it says that i need to switch my script from amend to Edify, but I don't have any idea how I am supposed to do that.

Is it a problem with my phone or is it just the rom which isn't correct for my phone?

my specs:

Model: x10i

firmwareversion: 2.1-update 1

baseband 2.1.55

kernel version 2.6.29 SEMCUser@SEMCHost#1

build-number 2.1.A.0.435

I hope you guys would be nice to help me out :), because I'm fairly new to this stuff.

Niek
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haldi4803:
you have X Recovery V1.0 ! That only uses Edify Scripts.

Most custom ROM?s here are AMEND scripts, so you need to install XRecover V0.3
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niekienator:
this might sound very dumb, but where do i get 0.3 xrecovery, I indeed downloaded 1.0 auto-installer but I can nowhere find the 0.3-release :confused:

has anyone noticed an effect on the phone's ability to sleep when you manually reorder the apps alphabetically in the app drawer? I kept having problems and factory reset 2x. Now I did find 3 troublesome apps that although not apparently running in the background, kept my phone from sleeping simply by being installed. I also stopped ordering my apps, deleted the troublesome apps and now it seems my phone is working correctly. I wonder if that (editing the default order) could also prevent the phone from sleeping? Any thoughts?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomKing:
Can't say I've noticed this, but I've been on launcherpro for quite some time now. Perhaps you could share more details on your setup?

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rando991:
I'm non rooted stock EC05. I used to use EDIT in the app drawer to rearrange my apps in alphabetical order (they don't arrange themselves automatically this way after rebooting). I had noticed in spare parts that my phone was never sleeping and killing my battery. I did a factory reset and it worked as advertised. I slowly added apps back until I found two that seem to prevent my phone from sleeping so I uninstalled them. Phone worked fine for a while but then started acting up again. I repeated the procedure, leaving only the apps my wife's phone had (hers always sleeps like a baby), but then my phone started up again. Tried another reset but this time decided to leave the apps in the order they put themselves and so far so good...wondering if that was doing something or if it is an app update that goes bonkers?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomKing:
Hmm. If you can't narrow it down to a certain app, I'm not totally sure what it could be. Have you tried clearing the data/cache of Twlauncher? You could try a launcher like LauncherPro, you don't have to be rooted to use a different one. :D
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rando991:
No but if the problem comes back up I will try some of those...these are the 3 apps that when loaded caused problems: NIV Bible, Document Scanner, [I now have relacement apps for each of these now] and most recently Espn Score Center, but my wife had all of thse but the doc scanner and had no problems

i would check in spare parts to see which apps may be holding a partial wake lock. for me the facebook app was not letting my phone sleep until i disable all of its notifications.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomKing:
Likewise. This is why I removed facebook altogether. The new mobile site has proven to be pretty useful now.

-Sent from my Random Epic.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rando991:
Yeah I found the same thing...but I would log out of Facebook too. Also the problem reappeared after a factory reset and I had not gone into Facebook. Are you saying that even if you don't log in, it can stop your phone from sleeping? My phone started doing it again a few days ago for no apparent reason, and I was able to stop that behavior by: finding and moving 2 apps from the phone to SD card (I thought I had gotten all of them), clearing any cache from different apps, and rebooting.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rando991:
That wouldn't tell me anything when I had the problem. The only thing was Android System....and....the phone wouldn't sleep even if in airplane mode! Which meant it had to be a process or app doing it all the time. I had never thought to clear cache, but I wonder why doing that works? Also there's a menu option in Spare Parts about Button Behavior which leads you to believe you can make the phone sleep but the menu says "only available in Ver 1.5". I've checked the market and can't find a ver 1.5 Spare Parts...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanderman112:
I believe it means android 1.5, because that says "End Button Behavior", and no new phones have Call and End buttons on them. Because the "Fancy Screen Rotation" says 1.5 only also.

I think you mean "Now go to Applications. Running Services." Going to Manage Applications will show all non-system applications and not tell you what is currently running, AFAICT.

Or am I mistaken?

Thanks for this thread.

No, there is a "Running" tab inside Manage Applications. An app doesn't have to have a service to be running.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jarcher1971:
Sounds to me like a system process may be the cause rather than any particular application. For me also I had issues early on with the SNS service forcing itself to restart continually and being a battery drain. It usually takes a force stop on that service followed by clearing data in the sns app and rebooting to fix. Don't know if that will work for you, but hope it helps.

-Now you're cheating :p. This is about saving battery, not just getting a bigger one. Extended batteries are rarely as good as advertised, and generally increase your phone size. More importantly though, those batteries will drastically benefit from these tips as well!

-A fair tip, and worth mentioning. Personally, though, there's rarely a time when I'm not texting. Thanks!

-Wifi and 4G are not as evil as you may think. 4G goes into sleep mode regularly. GPS and bluetooth, however, are awful when not needed.

-This is actually part of another step I planned to add(I guess, now lol). The beauty of my tips is that I can go 2 or 3 nights without needing a charge. My personal recommendation after that, is to buy a $20 wall charger and backup battery(or 2 if you find a good sale like I did). The external charger is much more efficient at charging to 100% then usb charging. This same method can be applied with the aforementioned larger battery too :D.[/QUOTE]

I've battled rogue apps, deleting caches, SNS service restarting because I deleted the Feeds and Updates Widget and the Buddies Now widget. I think I'm now finding that Power Tools Plus' 3G cellular buttons only work 50% of the time and even when the 3G icon is missing at the top of the status bar, the radio is still trying to use 3G.

I haven't seen a thread like this, nor have i even heard mention of this for that matter.

What do you think about the body design of the EVO? I'm talking about the exterior, so the shape, curvature and that sort of thing.

I like the screens design, how the glass is the entire front. No borders. I also like the overall color scheme, especially the cameras.

The only thing i really don't like is the curved back. It looks like the phone is being stretched, like its overly full.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
I don't like how the camera lens was designed; whos bright idea was it to have it stick out anyways lol! I HATE how weak the volume and power buttons get from the wear and tear (rooting, flashing). I like just about everything else, best phone I've had hands down.

It takes 2 clicks now to lower or raise my volume lol......*facepalm*
[EVO 4G General] Genjinaro:
^This... I'd would've rather the phone be thicker than have it protrude like that.

Also a camera button would've been nice. (I'm glad it's successor will have it)

Overall though, I love it's design. Initially I thought it was too large but now, anything less, seems too small.
[EVO 4G General] sph33r:

[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
What is the sensation supposed to be t-mobiles evo 3D or their thunderbolt like device?
[EVO 4G General] Ryjabo:

[EVO 4G General] Ryjabo:
I'd prefer the Sensation because of the design/appearance. Easily give up the 3D for that. Short of the 3D, it's the same phone.

i love the design, but would have loved to have the curved front glass and gorilla glass...also the camera should have been recessed ...other than that perfect...
[EVO 4G General] MrDrumngun:
I wish it was more like the inspire or tbolt. After handling those, with their sexy aluminum bodies, the EVO seems platsticky and cheap. I also don't like the angle of the sides at all. I wish the sides were a uniform dimension. All of this is easily solved with a case anyways. Almost a must.
[EVO 4G General] MrDrumngun:
We do have gorilla glass. But the curved glass would have been super nice too. It just looks sexy like that. I agree with the camera too.

I think the sensation has less bulk and more aesthetically pleasing. Im gonna get the 3d, but im not a big fan of the look of it, its kinda ugly.

Physical Call and End Buttons, or physical keys like the HD2. For 3 reasons:

1. With Physical buttons you can assign software specific app actions (i.e. skip to next track on a music app without turning on the screen).

2. I am also not a fan of the HTC Sense Dialer being that "Call" and "End" is in the same exact location whether its in a "IN-CALL" state or in "IDLE" state. I always worry that I'll re-call the person back the moment the person hangs up.

3. Way too cumbersome to jump back into the dialer app. Even using the notification is too cumbersome to end a call.

tried and tested it on a stock 2.3.3 (rooted) galaxy s

with a 3UK Sim (NOT a 3 BRANDED Phone)

and seems to work fine if not a bit slow

dont know if it will work for any other 3 Areas but i wouldnt count on it

either way good luck with it and hope you enjoy ect ;)

Hey guys, I've been reading XDA for about a month now, and I think I'm ready to flash CM7. I've already rooted with superoneclick, but I don't have the money now to get a new phone if I brick, so I was hoping someone could just check my plan to make sure that I'm good to go? I've read the tutorials, but I want to be positive that I'm ok. I think that if I generate a list [without looking at the tutorial], rather than just copying theirs, I'll be sure that I understand the steps 100%.

Procedure:

-Root the phone (done)

-install nvflash on computer, and then clockworkmod to phone

-backup the NAND with clockworkmod (is that like the wii, where the NAND is specific to the device itself?)

-move the NAND to the computer for safe keeping

-install titanium backup > backup all apps > move to computer for safety

-flash rom from SD card

I've flashed a few roms onto an android tablet before, but I didn't backup the NAND when I did...

Will give "thanks" to each reply
