I have been on Urban Fury since launch day (March 29 I think) You get 1 FC on the wallpaper app on install and that's it. I have been beta testing themes and kernels and have NEVER had data corruption or force closes other than the one on boot. It comes with Genocide kernel and Wifi Tether 3 pre 14 works great. That being said, all of the ROMs are good. Its just a matter of what you and your phone like the best
[Epic 4G General] omair2005:
I suggest ACS rom. Currently I'm testing out Bonsai 4.1.1 and really liking it. I'm using MattedBlue theme and MIUI font and its looking fantastic! However I did notice that battery drain much faster when OC'd to 1120 compared to other kernels (genocide). But I still got about 10 hours of battery when I'm OC'd.
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Make sure you don't have any CPU control apps installed, and re-calibrate your battery if you haven't already. I'm currently at 22 hours unplugged with 49% battery remaining.
[Epic 4G General] omair2005:
You know what.. I had setCPU installed. I JUST uninstalled it. do you happen to know the default settings? I really like 1120/100 interactive...
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Default is 200-1120 SmartAss. I suggest you give it a try before changing it. If you do change it, just edit the init cpu script. My phone doesn't like interactive but some have had OK results with it.

Ok i have an x10 i bought from OPTUS and the phone has the model number as x10a on it but when actually turned on and in the about section it displays as an x10i

does this mean i could get 3G 850? if so? would it require flashing a telstra based rom/backup or something?

[Hero CDMA General] Macanage:
Have a few questions I am sure some one can help with. I have been using Ti Backup to backup apps when updating Roms. No problem with the apps and bookmarks. Having trouble figuring out how to save text messages. I have tried saving MMS app and restoring but no prior texts. I have tried restoring just data and no go. What am I missing? What folder are the actual text messages saved in?

I also would like to pre load the ROM with apps before installing, but keep getting errors. Is this a signing issue or just me?

I have just started to use android commander to backup apps. I have tried to reinstall them back into the updated ROM, but also keep getting errors.

I really like Ti Backup, but it really takes a long time to run batch, go through each app, install, and hitting done for each app. May be there is a faster/easier way with Ti Backup.

Any help would be appreciated

[Hero CDMA General] il Duce:
You can make a zip using TB with all your apps which flashers them into /data.
[Hero CDMA General] Macanage:
il Duce,

Sorry for being so stupid. Do you mean zipping the backup file that TB uses? I don't see any option for making a zip with TB. Is it in the pro version?

Sorry again for my ignorance
[Hero CDMA General] il Duce:
Well I have pro, but I think its in both? Its in menu, more, create update zip. If you dont have that you can do an advanced restore of data with CWM. There are times you wouldn't want to, like going from froyo to ginger or back. Also sense to aosp. Full wipes are generally recommended, but these other things may work for you.
[Hero CDMA General] angelofmenoth:
I used the create update.zip earlier today, and I got an error saying that it needed to use Edify. I might have an older version of TiBu, though. I was hoping to get it added to the list of things to flash from the start along with gapps, but no luck. It's not much more work to install the .apk and then batch restore from there, though.

I think switching to Pro allows you to do the batch without having to approve and accept each individual app installation. Not to mention that nice Dropbox storage.

Hi everyone!

Plants vs zombies for android phones is finally out!

Has anyone tried it on their x8?

I already tried it on mine, but it is always force closed...

I'm using lizypen's floyo....
[XPERIA X8 General] fifo171:
look here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=922620&page=7 the first post on this page :) just install chainfire 3d and set to 16 bit colors :) don't forget to thank Titankahn :)
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
Can anybody give a hint where can I get the game that works on X8? I tried one, but it exits when I start it (chainfire is on and set). Thanks in advance
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
You need to reboot phone too
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
Still no good, it's rebooting the phone after a sec. I think it's not good for x8. Its name is "plants vs zombies HD" and its size is 49MB, and it is an apk file, so there is no cache directory for it. I am using FroyoBread BTW.
[XPERIA X8 General] Hamzai82:
hmm i found a "plants vs zombiles" which was 75mb. Mine works but then when i have to make a username the keyboard dosent appear and then it force closes or reboots.

Im using Floyo 0.20
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
i found this 75Mb sized PvsZ, and it's doing what you wrote: force close or reboot :(

I want this game, I loved the PC version. Please, somebody...

Edit.: Now it is working for me. I set the reduced texture size and 16Bit textures in C3D, restarted phone. Started PlantsVsZombies, it started, but it was a mess. I managed to write a profile name in it, started a new game. It was unplayable because of the textures are misplaced. I managed to exit from it through the menus. I set the texture size to normal in C3D (Removed the tick) but kept the 16bit textures ON, restarted phone. I set up Airplane mode and tried to start the game, and it has worked flawless! Now disabled Airplane mode, and I started the game again: no restart, no force close. It is working! Hope it helps for you guys!
[XPERIA X8 General] Hamzai82:
wow, hope it will work for us 2. But can u attach the apk file here? or pm me the website where u downloaded it?

thanks. :D
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
Sorry, I can't link here, we must not put warez on XDA forums, its against rules (and I mean not only the forum's rules). This stands for PMs here I think. I can give you a hint: search my profile on 4shared.com. Same name as here. Everything what you find there will work on X8.

[XPERIA X8 General] Hamzai82:
ok did that then 17 results appeared. But none of them had ur name there ;/

They were all "By:" someoneelse. Where u using the pvsz 49mb og the 75mb??

Otherwise can u send me it on my email?

not sure, i found 1 that is 75mb and 1 that is 49mb. Not sure which is the working 1. I did wat the other guy said and it worked but when i was playing it suddenly forced closed. So im wondering if its the 49mb which is the real 1? ;S
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
The 74,5MB is the working one. BTW you need the 1.8 version C3D (free version is enough, from Market) I don't know why can't you see my sharing. Else any 75MB PvsZ will be good!

ok thanks, i will try with version 1.8. But do we have to download plug ins aswell?
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
I haven't downloaded any plugin for C3D, so no, you don't need plugin, just set the textures to 16bit. Beware, this setting will apply to all of your 3D applications. Don't forget to restart phone after you set it!
[XPERIA X8 General] Hamzai82:
Ok. But i did all that and it worked perfectly until it started lagging a bit. Then it just forced closed..? and have tried it like 5 times and it happens over and over again
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
The force close appears to be normal. I mean I think there is a memory leak, and this is why it exits after 10-15 minutes. I'll try to recalibrate the games files to our phones (re-encode the music, make the sprites less memory intensive, etc...) but first of all I need to find a software which can unzip ".dz" file format.
[XPERIA X8 General] lockieio:
so when we will have proper link to download??? Can you PM me please??? I want a help so this game works on our x8!!!
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
When? I tell you when: when someone rewrites the whole game for our lowmem X8 phone, then we will get a fully working Plants vs Zombies. I'm trying to lower the sound/image quality for lower memory usage, but as I can degrade the musics without any hearable difference, reducing the image quality will be far harder, because all of the images (including the .png files) are stored in a ".dz" file (read out the filenames with a hex editor), but I cannot found a proper software to "unzip" this dz file. Yes, I've tried the LGDZ or what program, yes I've tried dzip, but no avail. So, if anyone can get me a software that can decrypt and encrypt this .dz, then I'll make the game fully playable for X8.
[XPERIA X8 General] Hamzai82:
winrar?? cant remember if it can unzip .dz??

otherwise try dictzip for windows, not sure if that will help, just searched and found that it can unzip .dz files?? just try and see :D
[XPERIA X8 General] lockieio:
???? im confused i try to open some xyz .dz file with winrar and it opened and you search for program...im confused ???
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
Yep, because .dz file format is normally a dzip made file which is a compression software, but the .dz that contains the needed files is NOT a compressed file. I don't know what it is. (try to unzip the Plants vs Zombies.zip (or apk), then you'll find the keyfile in \assets\PvZ.dz . Now this is the file that needs to be "uncompressed" (I think it needs decrypting, not compressing). You can't simply extract the PvZ.dz file with any compression software!

(BTW here is a part of the PvZ.dz file opened in a HEX editor: )

what rom are you using ?
[XPERIA X8 General] wc_how:
It is working on my floyo 0.20.

It works quite well at the beginning of the game,but now is starting slow on middle.

I hope it will not lag at the late game. :-)
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
I'm using Froyobread.

@hw_how:

When its start lagging just go back to Main Menu and resume game. Lagging will gone and as I noticed the game will not crash with this method. Oh, and BTW play without sounds; it will be crash far less.
[XPERIA X8 General] lockieio:
SO one update from me :)

i install it and on first it gives me FC.

then i set 16bit color in chainfire...end all of the process runing in backgroud who consume memory...working awseome for now...don know for later...

BTW i read this android version pvz will NOT work on X8...but still ...it works :)))
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
Ok, now I determined that the file that contains sounds and images are a ".dtrz" file, not a ".dz" file (found out through HEX editor). So, I (we) need a software that can open dtrz (or dtz) files!
[XPERIA X8 General] lockieio:
Hm yeah we will try. I play yesterday and when too much things hapening,then lags and force closes???

I was thinking,maybe there is some plugin for chainfire that we can play pvz without FC???
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
As I said the only thing that makes PvsZ fully playable is to reduce (or recode) the games wavs (with cubase- good quality with low file size) and gifs/ images (with pshotoshop- see as cubase: good quality with smaller size) to make the game less memory demanding. For this, we need to extract the /assets/PvZ.dz file (what is a DTRZ file for real). So share the word, and maybe someone has got a software that can do it!
[XPERIA X8 General] lockieio:
did you manage to see .dz file as text??? Not hex,i mean in real letters???
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
Open the file in a HEX editor. It not only shows numbers... So... you can see what files are stored in it, and you can see the file type too at the beginning of the file. Its not some kind of magic, it is really simple :D
[XPERIA X8 General] lockieio:
i see whole text inside .dz file in a stupid way with mobile...but dont know how to edit it or somethig ?!???
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
This is the key. We can see the files names in it, but can't edit the files itself until I (we) can't find a way to decrypt (or decompress) the files from the ".dz" (.DTRZ) file. As soon as there is a way to do it, I'll post here.
[XPERIA X8 General] andray:
Dragon UnPACKer can easily extract files from pvz.dz with HyperRipper command, cause they're are not packed or crypted at all. But how to compile everything back to dz?:)

guys a little help here... coz i want to play this but it keeps of force closing.. ive installed Chainfire3D Pro 3.3 and checked the 16-bit but it still keeps on closing during game and cannot be opened anymore.. i need to reboot phone for it to work again.. any tips and ideas to solve this ? thanks in advance...
[XPERIA X8 General] Spycrab:
To run PvZ without force close on stock kernel you should

1. install any 2.2 rom (miniCM6 or froyobread)

2. check if unused apps is running (if yes - stop them)

3. use 16-bit textures in chainfire 3d

thats all :3

imo, 2.2 have more free ram then 2.3
[XPERIA X8 General] :
This can happen for a variety of reasons..I managed to exit from it through the menus. I set the texture size to normal in C3D (Removed the tick) but kept the 16bit textures ON, restarted phone.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surlyodors:
I have been using Cognition on my Samsung Captivate and upgraded several times. I am currently running 4.4.6

I am needing to run an application that arms my home's security system remotely: DSC Alarm Monitor by Robert Chou.

Cognition will not allow the application to contact the alarm, view the status or arm the system.

I have contacted the developer of the Alarm app and we have worked together to troubleshoot. I have tried the Alarm app on two other Samsung Captivate devices (not rooted to Cognition) and they work flawlessly.

Apparently there is something within Cognition that will not allow the app to remote into the Alarm system and interact.

I love Cognition and hope that this is an easy fix. Has anyone else had this issue and can you please provide a solution. Thanks!

I set the time and one day after, it has unconfigured because it come one around 1.5 seconds

So in a few weeks the time is two minutes in advance

I can install ClockSync and sync all days but is a pain and also consumes the battery and storage

Any solution?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
No, no miraculous solution has emerged from the time you have posted your OT questions on the franco ROM thread. ClockSync consumes power by running for 5-10 seconds every 6 hours at most, so... are you serious? :rolleyes:

Maybe other people that were not at that moment on franco post, know another way to fix it

It is not normal that clock

so I ask it now maybe someone know how to solve
[Optimus One, P500, V General] 4silvertooth:
I hope the clock which you compare is not slow.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
You cannot fix your hardware clock on your phone, exactly as you cannot fix the same on your motherboard in your PC. This is why things like NTP, NITZ etc. have been invented.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Javi22:
Well so I will have to use the app and sync every days...

[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
On an normal PC the clock skew is about the same or even worse - unless you use NTP. Seriously, you just have unrealistic expectations when it comes to the HW clock precision of these consumer devices.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Javi22:
Sorry I dont understand that "acronyms" but I am really sure that the clock is not precise and is wrong. Is not normal that in a few hours the time has came one 1.5 seconds
[Optimus One, P500, V General] frskies:
Well, you will never be late for anything then?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
Well, as said, it is perfectly normal for this class of devices. Your phone is not a Swiss watch.

Solutions have already been mentioned - either switch to a service provider that supports NITZ on their network, or use ClockSync or similar utility to sync the clock via NTP.

With this, whole thing can be pretty much concluded. ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Javi22:
Ok dude, thanks for help :) everything solved, so I will use clocksync :)

That of NITZ, I supose that is the option which says "use values ​​provided by the network"
