@roydsilva

yep app delete was compatible to our device mi-270 as far as i know!! OK

for factory reset "power off the mobile. press menu and home button together then press power button u reach recovery mode" there with volume key go to wipe data factory reset and press menu button the phone will factory reset. or easier way is to go to settings then to privacy then to factory reset.

i have stopped using Google market becoz it infected my phone with malware which caused me to replace my handset. so use market cautiously!!!!

yesterday only i add new original Nokia 5800 battery to this phone with little packing on its lower end. (battery's length is little shorter. but battery is of 1320 mAh) so will tell u results in 5 to 7 days.

bye take care

@k2wl

can you tell me where I can get app delete?

and how to remove the apps with that?

I tried root uninstaller with z4 root. But it doesn't work.
[General Questions and Answers] xdaco:
Hi k2wl,

What about the battery performance (N5800)??

I have managed to back up the whole rom using the following command.

# cat /dev/mtd/mdt* /sdcard/mdt*.img

*=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12.

So you have 12 images for different parts of your rom.

By issuing the following command on a root shel u can determine what are these images.

# cat /proc/mtd

It will list the various mtd section with description and size.

The phone can be flashed with a prolific USB to Serial cable ( serial side is 3.5mm jack with TTL logic). I am trying to get the cable. Then will try to flash the phone. This will be very helpful when U have a bricked phone.

I have downloaded the flashing tools and cable drivers and IMEI write tools.

Use universal androot to root your device.You can root and unroot your device with it.It worked on my mobile Spice Mi-270.Other useful app is Move2SD Enabler to install apps by default to SD Card and Root Uninstaller to remove crap apps installed by the company on the phone.I have uploaded the apk files for convenience.

!!!Remove system apps with great Caution!!!

I've also placed an order for this phone, which will be shortly followed by a Dell Venue depending on my usage experience with Android, this will be my first Android device, can you please explain me all of the above process of rooting and removing useless applications Step-by-Step.
[General Questions and Answers] aman.pitbull:
Thanks a lot for that detailed reply, you are a really helpful member on this forum.

I am getting this phone for Rs.3000 !! it's even cheaper than the feature-phones available for more amount. You've mentioned it's 200Mhz but when the phone was released Spice mentioned it as having 600 MHz MediaTek processor then a few retailers mentioned a 414Mhz processor, whats with all that confusion ? Do you really think other similarly priced dual-SIM feature phones are better than this ?

P.S. - My order got delayed due to unavailability of stock.
[General Questions and Answers] xdaco:
Hi,

It is a chines trick to advertise like that way. It is not 600Mhz . If someone says that , then it is a utter lie.

Actually it has a separate core for its GMS radio control which operates at 200MHZ and the main processor is operating at 214Mhz. So the chines fellows are advertising (200 +214)= 414Mhz which is actually not. I will again suggest do not buy this phone. If you want to buy chines phone like this try star A5000. or HTC HD2 Clone with mediatek 6516 processor which at least operates at 400Mhz. An android will be reasonable if it at least operates at 599Mhz.

Guys, If you want to make backup of your phone use gscript lite. I have a custom script (.sh) file which the app can use and do backup ! It is an awesome tool......and also guys if you are going to try different recoveries, then use mobile uncle tools ! It is a chineese app (user interface in english) made for MTK phones ! It can flash recovery images from your sd card !! I will upload them soon !!!

If you r going to buy a chineese phone, I would recommend MTK 6573 phones + android 2.3 + 650 mhz processor.....phones with this package (mtk 6573 + andro 2.3 + 650 mhz) are called B63M phones..........spice mi-350/350n ; lenovo A60 ; Fly Blackbird are such phones ! They dual sim too !!
[General Questions and Answers] xdaco:

3.now create another backup of system.img

4.using unyaffs tool/android kitchen add changes to the system.img

That it will help you!!

Best configuration for spice mi 270 fully tested...

hey guys i bought 2 phones SPICE MI270 one for me another for my sis... before 2 months

at first it was slow

but then i did the following things and speeded up the phone:

1) install z4root.apk and root the phone

2) install espier launcher from google play market( looks exactly lite a apple ios )

3) deleted already installed app(yahoo, mail, talk, voice, youtube player, video player, music player, gallery,NIMBUZ(DOSNT WORK ATALL) etc.)

'cause some of these apps slow the internet speed and also take up ram automatically.

4) install opera mini ------ browser.

soul player -----video play and online stream support (very light app, good for this slow phone).

blackmart alpha- to get paid apps for free

free sms sender --- for sms (supports both paid sms and gateway free sms like way2sms, fullon, etc----also it switches on wifi automatically when u press send button during gateway sms and after msg is sent it switches off the wifi... a real BATTERY SAVER APP)

shapewriter keyboard --- works charmingly like swype and is free(google for it 'cause its not in market)

media plus---- a simple music player with a nice widget facility

emit (install from blackmart alpha)- plays videos on ur pc to ur phone (uses ur pc processor for video render.. so a good wifi is sufficient to play from ur pc to ur phone)

es file explorer-- good explorer(I USED THIS TO DELETE THE UNNECESSARY SYSTEM APPS(enable root mode) )

bt mono- to connect bluetooth headset for media playing

quick pic--- for gallery viewing and sharing

quick settings-- a toggle app in the status bar(supports all toggles)

FINALLY U CAN DELETE UR HOME LAUNCHER FOR MORE SPEED

I hope u find these iformation useful because i spent a LOOOOT of googling and experiments for this info( even bricked my sis phone.. not yet fixed(HOPE SOMEONE POSTS HOW TO RECOVER A BRICKED PHONE))

HIT THANKS IF U LIKE THIS POST...

THANK YOU....
[General Questions and Answers] naveenmathi:
i had same problem and solved it

hey i had the exact same problem

i solve it by

FIRST SAVE ANY LAUNCHER APP IN UR SD CARD ROOT(with the name "launch.apk")

1) sending a url(ex. www.google.com) from another phone to this phone via sms

2) since ur phone has the notification bar, u can clik the recieved message .. it will open sms app

3) from there clik the link u sent earlier

4) now browser opens

5) type the url of ur launch.apk in the address bar (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1695361)

6) thats it. the installation will begin for the launcher. then u can press home button .

ENJOY!!!

I dont know if any1 is having this issue but my G2x goes completely mute at time like no sound from anywere AT ALLL

I have to restart the phone for it to get sound back

this happens on any Rom I try
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
are you trying to find a ringtone to use by listening to them one by one and so on? That and using some apps will cause the phone to pretty much mute itself... one app i know of is "torch"
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jayrrockx:
nope none of those torch is the flashight app-the flashlight i use is the one that comes on the notification widget on cm7
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
don't have any ideas then I tried.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pinoydj:
I get the same problem also. Though I think it only happened when I used bionix rom
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dameon87:
From my experiences thus far. Regardless of which Torchlight you use (And the one on the CM7 uses the torchlight app.) It will kill your audio. I only used it from the notification bar, and it indeed kills my audio just about every time.
[Thunderbolt General] 06ms6:
I had to replace the digitizer since it was cracked from a drop. It works great however now the top half of the LCD screen is messed up, it has banding. I was just wondering if anyone ever experienced this with anything before and if it is a damaged LCD or just a connection issue. I'll be taking it apart again and messing with the ribbon cable, I was just curious if anyone has any ideas.

Thanks!
[Thunderbolt General] sklobopes:
I had that exact issue with my ipod touch. Your LCD is bad bro, if its anything like replacing an ipod touch LCD, youll be fine,search youtube for installment videos.
[Thunderbolt General] 06ms6:
Yeah replacing the LCD is basically the same as digitizer replacement which I just did so I should be good there. I think I flexed it too much when prying it from the metal casing. Oh well.

Thanks for the input!
[Thunderbolt General] lostpilot28:
Sorry to resurect this old thread, but I've got this problem, too. The thing is, it's a coworker's phone and they asked me to help them replace their digitizer. OK, so they bought a new digitizer and I replaced it. I was extremely careful and don't think I flexed the LCD too much, but now when I power it on, I get the same banding that you posted.

Is it possible that the banding could be from a bad digitizer?? Or possibly something else? I'd really hate to ask this person to spend another $40 on a new LCD if they don't have to.

Ugh, that's why I kick myself for helping other people sometimes! :rolleyes: Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!

Archos update support is great:)

They even released a Update for the Gen7 (Archos 5 Internet Tablet) with Android Donut (1.6) in April '11 :)

This device has released in spring 2009!:D

2 and a half years of updates:) Considering by this we'll get updates till summer 2013:D (At least:D)
[Gen8 General] gerke:
I gave up hope, sold my A101 and bought me an Acer Iconia A500.

There is only one thing which I am missing from the Archos and that's the supported videocodecs of the A101.

Now being changed to the Acer, I won't ever buy an Archos again. Not for it being a worse product, but because of not answering my supportquestions, only auto-reply's.

Good luck to you all !
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
The World need more optimists...
[Gen8 General] saprano614:
I have had no issues with archo support. They replied with in 2 days of my question( not auto reply). also the device works great as is. I just rooted and that was it. I don't run urk i just did some simple mods like move the buttons to notification and a custom boot animation. other than that my tab works fabulous. The only thing that archos needs to fix is the random reboot while sleeping thing but even that isn't enough to make me pay over $500 for a tablet.

And yes i think we will get more updates. I think that they (Archos) may be waiting for Ice cream sandwich to be released, since the honeycomb source code seems to be a highly guarded secret. but hey i am willing to wait and see, and then if after ICS gets released we don't get a update soon i may be swayed to buy something else.
[Gen8 General] toyface:
Quite frankly I'm almost at the point of ditching my A101. I love it dearly, however these last few weeks the touch screen has turned to being the most awkward thing I have ever used, it won't respond to anything for a few minutes, then be great after that. This could be a software issue, but either way it's something that didn't used to happen and quite frankly just shouldn't happen.

Also, honeycomb tablets are *&%^ing all over the Archos. If the 7-inch Acer iconia turns out to be good, I'm on it as soon as I can be.
[Gen8 General] riplay:
Hope not but who knows
[Gen8 General] lbhocky19:
your screen just started getting dead spots too?

i had some initially but after all the updates there was never an issue.

the past 2 weeks though im getting them all the damn time, so i barely use it.

about to just do a full wipe and start over
[Gen8 General] machatta:
I'm glad you're happy with your tab. When I bought my A70 in December I kinda worked out I was paying 40% for 85% of the functionality.

As regards the Samsung team, you obviously missed the fun SGS owners enjoyed waiting for the upgrades from Eclair to GB.

So I have an A 70, a SGS and as of last week an SGS 2. I love them all. They will all be obselete within a year. The A 70 is getting old, but I have been at IT long enough to know that in reality I use the mobile devices for

Browsing

Email

Browsing XDA to see tweaks, mods and dev

Games

Random other stuff

I smile when I read about devices only delivering half the functionality they should and and the like. You are buying a nascent technology.

So cheers to everyone who actually likes the Archos and thanks Sauron.
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
Exactly what i mean!:)

I just hope this xda subforum wont be dead when Archos releases their Gen9, cause i hopes with the, that archos will release, Honeycomb source codes, we can port HC to the Gen8:)

Archos is just the very best manufacturer in the World^^

I spend 550€ in it:)

yea ive had this thing since march and its just been a big disappointment. the nearly mirrored screen is almost a deal breaker in its self but the constant crashing/freezing and need to reboot has me looking to ditch it
[Gen8 General] machatta:
Most of those initial releases were unofficial internal ones full of bugs. Took ages to get a stable 2.2 rom. Head over to the 19000 forum and see all the *****ing about slow samsung updates.

Kies only updates when your local phone carrier adopts a new rom, so I didnt use it much.

Look I got the phone last July and the software was fairly horrific. Huge lags due to the rfs filesystem and software. Took about 6 months before official roms were decent. Up until then, to have a good experience you needed to root/lagfix/use custom rom.

CM7 was never properly finished for the SGS in any stable form. CHeck out the bugs.

That's not true.

Hmmm. I thought when you were talking about productivity you meant work apps as opposed to enhanced emailing and media. :p

As I said in my post, I bought the Archos becuase on balance I thought it was much better value for money at the time than the alternatives. Sure there is better value now - look at the way the AUS price for the tab was slashed recently to 299 aus dollars for the 3g one.

Thats nothing to do with Archos. Just wait will the nex tab/xoom whatever is launched and all the top devs will disappear form the tab.
[Gen8 General] chtamina:
my archos has got the same issue, any idea ?
[Gen8 General] machatta:
Not true. Many there are leaked versions. which are by Samsung but not the official releases.

I flashed many ROMS, I was merely pointing out that I didnt use the SH1t that is Kies.

Samsung develop the versions, not the carriers.

That is just rubbish. Standard return instructions for a bricked phone are pretend you were upgrading the firmware with Kies and you dont know what happened. Never came across a case where they replaced a bricked phone where they were told it was bricked.

Oh and in the SGS II they have a kernel flashing counter where the phone records when you flach a new kernel. Nice little warning triangle left on the phone when you do so. Apparently you can reset the counter, but this trigers another counter reset.

You are not being realistic about warranty cover.

I researched the product and knew what I was buying. If I buy a renault, I dont expect a mercedes. Actually I wouldnt buy a renault. But that is a seperate matter.

Hate to tell you that as soon as the SGS ii was released (very nice phone) all the devs disappered from the SGS except one.

At the end of the day, the android system is a phone pretending to be a computer. Long way to go.
