[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
The wonk fix was an issue that plauged CM for quite a while on the N1. It caused hard lockups of the microphone and the screen. Also, because of it, the microphone was never able to enter its low-power sleep state. With the wonk fix, you won't have any issues with the mic, and the phone will reach its low-powered sleep state.

I have never enabled the keep in memory options. My understanding is these settings were more for devices that had limited RAM (like the G1), because Android would dump these programs to free up memory for other apps, so when you went to them, it would take a while for the system to restart them. I haven't ran into a need to do this on the N1. The heap size limits the amount of ram that an app can use. Unless you are running some crazy memory intensive apps, there is really no need to adjust this. It won't help most of the apps that are out there.

As for the capacitive buttons, welcome to the wonderful world of the N1 digitizer (touchscreen). I don't know of any way to adjust this, but you get used to it pretty quickly.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isikh:
Okay - I'll keep those disable then, and yay digitizer. Also, I don't know if it's the wonk fix, but my camera is force closing now :(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
No, the wonk doesn't affect the camera. What is your radio version (aka baseband)? With the N1s we usually just refer to the two sets of numbers after the underscore "_" (eg 5.08, 4.06, etc). The 5.08 is the version that google sent out with the Gingerbread update and overall seems to be the best consistent performer for the phones. The 4.06 seems to crash the camera and/or camcorder. The 5.12 seems to be really hit or miss. Some phones it runs great, others they get all sorts of issues. I usually recommend the 5.08.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isikh:
Okay, and my apologies, with college I've missed and forgot key things about android - how do I find my radio version? Boot into fastboot or the bootloader?

EDIT: Under basband version, on the about phone menu, it says:

32.24.00.22U_4.03.00.21_2

Is that baseband 4.03?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
Yes, the radio on your phone is 4.03. I would highly recommend updating it to 5.08. There is a basic guide in the wiki for it, or you can hit up the N1 wiki on xda for a more in depth guide.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
the wonk fix and and kinda directly related to that fix greatly fixed some battery issues which kinda makes running the last stable version not worth it. the newest nightly is so much improved on battery idle current draw that its something needs to be emphesized. its that good where you can be unplugged for 8 hours and lose 3% battery idle standby, wifi on. 3-4mA current draw.

that aside, pershoots kernel is great, redstar too. there's not much i do anymore with settings on cm7 cause its so good lately.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isikh:
Where is said wiki located?

I'd like an in depth, detailed noob guide as to avoid messing up the phonee

Also, thanks for the info Roger. I'm gonna stick with nightly #87 since peeople are saying the battery life is great and it's stable.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
that's the perfect choice, you will be very happy.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
I'm on my phone so it is hard to do links, but if you go into the Nexus One General forum, I think it is one of the first few stickys in there.

it sounds a good news,but,

if you buy a chinese edition ,just like me,

you will .....i can t find any word to describe this feeling.

in china ,since the bad relation between the gov and google,

we have no google service in mianland.

the search sever is located in hk.

there is even no android markert in my device.

so,your solution cant work with this situation,well,it is not our fault.

when i can get the 3.1 update,i will use an us rom and your way to solve this problem.

in china ,we cant talk about this situation,the gov want to contral everything.

the gov said he need to check the search result within google to make sure there are no harmful information in the result.

harmful does not mean violent or adult movies,it is checked for political reason.

google said NO, so he quit ,

after that ,there is no google service in our mainland.

My sg4g plays the movie when connect the phone to my TV via USB cable. Choose mass storage i can see all my videos and the trailer for inception but cant find the movie i have a Samsung TV with media. I have looked everywhere for the actual movie but cant find it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] danstheman7:
It's located in what looks like /movie/ on your SDCARD.

It's in a .pyv format, which is probably why you can't watch it or see it on your TV.

You can look for a .PYV converter on the internet, but on a quick google search I saw nothing.

Good luck.

Anyone have a download for it? I got my SGS4G refurbished and it wasn't on there correctly. Actually it wasn't even on there at all!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beefvvl:
Sorry can't post any movies on here. It's against forum rules even though it was originally on the phone. You'll have to get it from someone who has the phone or go to the store and get it there. I was in the same boat. Luckily my cousin has the same phone. So now I have my whole sd card backed up to my external drive.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cdub5:
Noob questions. Every time I flash a new rom I become narotic, and I first disable any lagfix, then go to cwm, and factory reset, cache, dalvik, and batt stats all wiped. I'm assuming I don't need to do this if it's a full wipe rom? Can I even skip the lagfix part or is that always necessary?

Also if I'm upgrading a version of a rom, ex, apex 6.4 to 6.5 or any other situation same as this, can I just flash it without doing any prep before hand?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
if it's a full wipe ROM than yes, the ROM does all the wiping for you. And if the OP states for you to disable lagfix before flashing than i do so.. also if your just doing an update you can usually just flash over one another. But its always good to check with the ROM dev and see if he suggests any special wipes or whatnot.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockRatt:
You can still do whatever your used to and are comfortable with. BUT this is what I do before flashing any rom.

I go to market and make sure all apps are updated.

Next I go to titanium backup and backup all user apps and system apps with data (I NEVER RESTORE THE SYSTEM APPS OR DATA THOUGH)

Next I boot into recovery and perform a backup (which saves almost Evey aspect of my rom I am on before flashing

I boot back up and then reboot into recovery again.

Then I install whatever rom I am flashing at the time.

I DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING OTHER THAN CACHE WHILE IN RECOVERY AND BEFORE FLASHING THE ROM.

I have NOT had more than 1-2 issues flashing anything since I started using froyo, so that includes any froyo rom, the gingerbread rom that first was made, then Continuum and on my second cappy the same except I also have flashed CM7 on it.

The one or two times I had issues ALL I ever did was boot into recovery and run restore from the previous rom I was on. Then reflash the rom I was trying to get on to. I really have have had NO ISSUES NOT wiping anything other than cache.

I look at it this way, if it works the first time I flash a rom I am golden and do not need to reset up everything. If I have a issue then I CAN start from scratch with a factory reset and wipe cache and dalvich cache IF NEED BE. At least then I am ON the rom I was trying g to go on in the first place.

Then after all seems good I will restore my user apps and some user apps with data with Titanium Backup. So MOST of the time I have changed roms and all is working with no issues in 10 to 15 minutes.

Again this is HOW AND WHY I do it that way. A NANDROID BACKUP and TITANIUM BACKUP are your BEST FRIENDS in these cases.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cdub5:
Thanks for the replies. Very helpful
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
6.5 is a wipe version which would take care of wiping caches. You dont need to disable lagfix. But as someone said always keep a nandroid backup :)

Also you may want to post these queries in ROM thread for quicker response
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axis01:
I always disable lagfixes just for good measure. Most roms do a full wipe so there's no need for any of the other stuff.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pgergen91:
I'm running Open Soju 0.2.5 on my Nexus S 4G, loving the ROM, but decided I liked the Messaging app from CM7 where it allows white on black, SMS splitting, etc. And since 0.2.5 is deodexed, I thought I would try moving the mms.apk included in CM7 over to my System > Apps folder on my phone..

Successfully moved over, installed and it runs great! Only problem is, every time I reboot my phone the original mms.apk seems to be installed, I have to go into root explorer and re-install the new mms.apk.. anyway to avoid it being replaced upon reboot?

Thanks

I am from singapore and I have to call US to ask them to activate it? And will they do it? Flashing win 7 to HD2 consider illegal or like "jailbreak"?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
use the web chat

if they ask which its unlikely they will

play really dumb, pretend your on holiday and you accidently reset your phone

tell them its asking for some activation thingy

its easy, you'll be fine

is it illegal? its a bit of a gray area, MS doesnt sell the OS as such to end users, they are probably ok with it as long as people dont take the piss, but should we have it? no.

if people make a big fuss about it and bring it in to the public eye they may be forced to stop our developers. In short, put WP7 on your HD2 just make sure you buy some stuff via the marketplace, dont just freeload it all and brag to the world.

Support the market and i suspect that the sleeping monster will stay that way.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyderz:
I was curious as to why there is a button in the notifications menu to turn GPS on and off. I started to look in to it and discovered that there is indeed a GPS chip in the wife only version, or there seems to be anyway!

My question is, what does that chip exactly do? Does it only pick up your location? I can't seem to find any places around me with wifi off. I'm assuming that means all the map and location data is delivered over the internet through 3g or wifi. Is there anyway to use my device as I would a regular GPS device? I know it has all the features but can they work through the GPS chip like they do in a GPS device? Or is there anyway to get this to work?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexgogan:
Ok the wifi is mainly just for accessing networks either open or via ssd and password. You can also connected with mobile AP if your mobile has this option.

The GPS on the other-hand is for mapping and location based services like navigation etc (you can use copilot and several other gps based apps with the P1010). Some of these apps will also piggy back any Bluetooth and or wifi connections that are available for further triangulation if needed. So if you have any apps like various weather and navigation then the GPS is required (but also your location can be shared via your wifi and opt in to give this info through google).

Hope this helps
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toinktoink:
you can find your location via wifi, enable your wifi and turn gps on, you'll find your coordinates, but not that accurate compare to 3g

Can anyone help me out with updating the dual boot Phiremod/HC install?

My pc is a Windows 7 64-bit and I'm having absolutely no luck expanding the sd card to use the full 8GB.

Windows 7 and Easeus don't see the partitions, and Gparted does, but won't let me expand to include the free space (listed as unallocated).

I finally managed to mount the sd card via ADB, and have copied the phiremod update zip there, but when I try to install it, I get an error (bad) and after a restart, the file has vanished from the partition.

I'm very new at this, but can usually follow detailed instructions. :confused:
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toosurreal01:
Here's what I did to update to 6.3:

Insert SD Card into my computer's card reader

Download EASUS Partition Manager (also using W7 64-bit)

Take the SD Card partition (#6 I believe) and extend it using the unallocated space left (mine was about 6Gb left on my 8Gb card)

Run the job in the partition manager

Throw SD Card and boot into Phiremod 6.2

connect to computer via USB and copy the 6.3 update to the SD Card

reboot in recovery, clear cache and dalvik cache (under advanced)

flash the 6.3 update zip

Mine hung at the android... screen for about 10min then I did a hard reboot and it fired up and has been working fine.

I was getting gmail force closes until I wiped cache and dalvik cache so I added that step in before flashing.

Let me know how it goes!

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siskiou:
Thanks for the step by step instructions, but for me the buck stops at trying to extend the partition. Easus only sees the boot partition. Gparted shows all the partitions, but won't extend the sd partition. It looks like it should work (lets me drag the extender thingy), but when I apply the action, it reverts back to the original, with no error message. Just doesn't do it.

Should I start over and reformat the card?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toosurreal01:
It wouldn't hurt. Only thing you would lose are apps you've installed.

You could always use Titanium Backup for that though.

If you do reformat make sure you do a full format and not a "quick" one so no data is still lingering on the card.

Let us know how it goes!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] racks11479:
Just a shot in the dark. But did you unmount the partitions first before applyin your changes in EAsus?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siskiou:
Hm, no, I don't think so.

How would I do that? Card in Nook, or in PC?

Again, Easus only shows the boot partition, and nothing else.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] racks11479:
I meant gparted. Sorry. Did u unmount the partition before attempting to extend it?

And when doing so. Please don't do it while card is in nook. Only when its in PC directly with a nmicrosd card reader
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siskiou:
Ah, do I need a usb micro sd card reader?

I only have a regular size sd card adapter for it.

And no, I didn't unmount the partition. I checked earlier, but there is no such option in the gparted menu, and I don't have much advanced partitioning knowledge.

A google search didn't help much.

Would appreciate if you could tell me how to do this! :)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] racks11479:
It is preferred to use a micro sdcard reader. I assume you are using a Linux box or live CD with gparted. But there should definitely be a n option for you to unmount the partition. You will not be able to make any changes to mounted partitions.

Right click over the partition that you want to work with. It should give you a menu. And unmount should be one of the options.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siskiou:
Thanks for all your help!

I'm using a live cd on a Win 7 pc, and there is definitely no unmount option in the right click menu when I boot into gparted. Not even a greyed out one.

I'll try and burn another cd and see if that changes things.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] racks11479:
That is very strange. There should always be an umoint option for partitions if gparyed recoginizes the drive. Hmmmm.... which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siskiou:
I downloaded the Gparted live version 0.8.1-3.iso.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] racks11479:
Yeah. Then there shouldn't be an issue. :/

It might just be an issue with your card reader. :(
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siskiou:
Thanks again. I'll report back in once I get a usb card reader!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siskiou:
Got a card reader and Easeus and Win 7 Disk Management can now see all the partitions.

No luck expanding the sd partition, though. The action seems to happen, but then everything reverts back to what it was originally.

No mount/unmount option anywhere to be found, not with Easeus, nor with Gparted or Win 7.

I'm out of ideas at this point and will reformat the card and start over.

Edited to add: Aaand I'm now having trouble doing *that*, too.

Tried it on the pc: no go.

Tried it on the Nook: it claimed the card was sucessfully formatted in about 1 sec, and then got stuck on that notice.

Waited 5 minutes, still stuck. Turned it off and back on, and Nook booted into Phiremod.

Any ideas how I can reformat this demon card? :D

Edited to add: Am now using a low level formatting tool and get "format error occurred at offset ...". The program is still running and seems to be formatting the rest of the card.

Does this sound like the sd card is damaged?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwyrt:
A couple other options for you to try:

SD Formatter 3.0 - Made specifically to format SD cards - http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3/

Partition Wizard - This is the software I used to extend the SD Card partition. Really simple to use - http://download.cnet.com/Partition-Wizard-Home-Edition/3000-2094_4-10962200.html?tag=mncol;7

I would try formatting the SD card, reinstalling the dualboot image, the using Partition Wizard to extend the SD card partition.

As far as updating, I haven't tried the newest update the when I updated from 6.1 to 6.2 I plugged my Nook into my computer, dropped the update file onto the Nook's internal memory, then moved it to the SD card with the Root Explorer app.

Hope any of that helps. Good luck!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siskiou:
Thanks! I will give those a try, since everything was still on the card after the low level format.

Who knew that reformatting would be such a problem!

Did you have to unmount the sd partition, before extending it?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwyrt:
I extended the partition with Partition Wizard immediately after burning the dual boot image. Never messed with mounting or unmounting anything. I'm a little new to this myself really. Why would you need to mount the SD card partition?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siskiou:
I didn't think I had to, but racks11479 mentioned it as a possible solution in this thread, so I thought I'd ask.

None of the programs had any success in reformatting my card, so I returned it to the store and got a replacement.

Now I'm very ambivalent about trying again and possibly messing up another card.

Can anyone here think of anything that I might have done (or should have done) to cause the card to act this way?

And if anyone feels like posting a baby step guide for someone like me, I'd very much appreciate it! :)

Edited to add: I just found the following

*********

It also will produce a multi partition removable disk for which windows will not allow you to re-partition. If you want to get back to "normal" disk you can reformat it with Hewlett-Packard Company's HPUSBFW.exe

***********

Also, I used an old 2GB card to reformat my NC (went fabulously easy) and then reformatted that and tried a CM7 rom, which worked, but was way too slow. This reformatted again, without any problems, so I'm not sure if the above statement (regarding bootable sd cards) is correct or not.

And if anyone feels like posting a baby step guide for someone like me, I'd very much appreciate it! :)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siskiou:
Okay, it seems the sd card was the culprit after all!

I bit the bullet and tried it with the new card, and it went as smooth as silk!

Partition expanded without a hitch, and now I'll try the update, after installing NookColorUMS and the ADB drivers. At first nothing happened until I realized that USB storage needed to be turned on in Phiremod.

I have a lot to learn!

Thanks, everyone!
