[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Root:
I'd be turned off by full length movies. I really have to draw a line, but I don't want to give up too much.
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
So, i charge my phone, it shows 100% and after i remove charger, battery starts decreasing very quicly(at least 1% per minute) :( is there an fix for this problem ? :(
[XPERIA X8 General] AntwnhsAnt:
Which ROM are you using??

Did you try to wip battery stats through xRecovery (or with an app called BatteryCalibration)??
[EVO 4G General] Lookn4me:
I just got a replacement phone from Sprint. They updated it.. unrevoked won't work now. Any ideas yet??
[EVO 4G General] dabbill:
If it came with the GB update on it. You should be able to downgrade to Froyo and then root.
[EVO 4G General] jayharper08:
Probably have to give it a little more time :( Hasn't been done yet that I know of.

[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Since when lol? As far as I know if it came with GB you're **** outta luck.
[EVO 4G General] RileyGrant:
Yep youre SOL, looks like the old exploits were all patched too so I would expect waiting a few weeks.
[EVO 4G General] tokuzumi:
If the bootloader says "S-On", and has hboot 2.16, you cannot downgrade to Froyo. You will get an error about the boot loader being an older version.
[EVO 4G General] playya:
Have you tried to do Z4root and the unrevoked s-off forever method. Just a thought. May not be a good one but I use z4 for temp root and I know it wont fully root only because of the S-on in the bootloader. Also which bootloader do you have currently. If its a newer bootloader as well its definitely a no-go
[EVO 4G General] kwdan:
They will figure it out
[EVO 4G General] Lookn4me:
I still have a pci36 image from froyo If I place it on the root of my sd card, it.should replace me back to froyo and then I can run unrevoked 3 right or??
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
Are you S-ON or S-OFF in the bootloader?
[EVO 4G General] Lookn4me:
S-On
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
It probably only works if you were S-OFF.

You can try it to see what happens.
[EVO 4G General] jeriel05:
I tried it didn't downgrade, I also tried the Ruu it did nothing either. Just wait patiently you will be able to root soon. This stock ROM is running smoothing anyway, no big deal...
[EVO 4G General] edufur:
When all else fails, use brute force. Do a google search on goldcards. ;-)
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
Just trying to see a pattern here, but was your bootloader also S-ON?
[EVO 4G General] whatsitsnamenow:
Dude. On another thread you updated live OTA and ask for help to root it. Now you got a replacement phone from Sprint and they've updated it. Pick a story and stick with it. Are u sure Sprint is sending out replacement phones with Gingerbread update already installed or are you just making up stories as you go along? I'm asking because I have a replacement phone coming this week.

Not wanting to call you out. Just trying to confirm what I might expect coming from Sprint this week.
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
My homegirl just got a replacement from Sprint today and it still has froyo on it.
[EVO 4G General] whatsitsnamenow:
Thanks for the info. I was hoping this would be the case.
[EVO 4G General] Lookn4me:
For your info, some of us can afford & do have more than one phone.... I only asked for help. Not to hear an idiot talk trash.. have a great day: -)& yes it came updated...
[EVO 4G General] jeriel05:
Yes, I unrooted my phone and bootloader was S-ON
[EVO 4G General] southpark-droid:
I used the ruu 3.29.651.1 to down grade to then ran the 3.70.651.1 pc36img.zip from SD card and then rooted with unrevoked. Then installed Rom manager and installed stock gb rooted from Rom manager.
[EVO 4G General] jeriel05:
Were you S-ON or off?
[EVO 4G General] southpark-droid:
I was s on then. Now I am s off and ducked. I wanted one install from stock of the update as Sprint can tell who is rooted based on who gets the updates.
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
The RUUs (up to 3.70) will work, even with S-ON if the phone does not already have the new bootloader. I've done this myself. Once the phone has been OTA updated and the new hboot 2.16 has been installed, it appears that the RUUs only work if the phone is still S-OFF. That seems to be the pattern.
[EVO 4G General] southpark-droid:
Why sprint why.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
You mean:

Why HTC why.*
[EVO 4G General] frankie51:
once one comes out youll know
[EVO 4G General] AFLAC:
I had to take my phone in for repairs and they recommended that I bring the phone to them in a stock setup for I did the stoooppid thing and let the OTA do its thing. I now have a phone that I thought I could not root. Reading this, it appears that I may have hope. Here is what the info looks like on the bootloader screen...

Supersonic EVT2-3 SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT-2.10.0001

MICROP-041f

Touch Panel-ATMEL224_16ab

Radio-2.15.00.09.01

Oct 15 2010 12:07:00

What can I do to root this phone? I have tried running 2 different RUU without success. Thank you in advanced for any and all help.
[EVO 4G General] vandon1:
With s-off, just put the amon recovery pc36img.zip in the root of your sdcard and press power, select reboot and when the screen goes black, hold down vol-down. It will flash a recovery that you can use to flash another Rom or just the Su zip for rooted stock
[EVO 4G General] palanku:
hmmmm...im stay away a little more time from O.T.A. update
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
It appears you only updated to the old 3.70 RUU, because you have the matching hboot number. Stay away from the next OTA update. Right now you're still in good shape.
[EVO 4G General] AFLAC:
Thanks a bunch, I was about the lose it. I am now rooted and running WIFI hotspot. Have a great day
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
Just out of curiosity, has anyone been on the Unrevoked irc channel to see if they're working on it?
[EVO 4G General] skyline247:
I went on a couple of days ago. Nothing as of yet, but they're working on it. The guy there asked me to leave my email addy. They supposedly will send me a mail when they get an update.
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
Cool, I might go on there tonight.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tubaloth:
I was cleaning the screen off my Asus Transformer this morning. Looking to make sure I not only get the dust but also the Fingerprints, I look at the screen from all the different angles. I started to see a couple of spots. I wipe the cloth over them and realized I'm not even moving them. I get my trusty Thumb Nail out to preform extra work. I then realize that dust spot is UNDER my glass! I look at another spot, and that too is under my glass. How did it get under the glass?

I have the Asus Case. One thing I don't like is when you charge it you have to leave the cover open. I usually set the cloth and something else on the top to minimize dust getting on the screen.

Anybody else having this problem? (I got mine from Walmart.com)
[Defy Android Development] danimagrin:
Hey guys!

It has been already a while messing around with my Defy but one question still remains unanswered for me.

If /cache, /data and /system partitions are Ext3 formatted (you can check this by typing mount in Terminal Emulator), why do nandroid backup images have Yaffs2 filesystem then? Why does this conversion occur? Doesn't it make much more sense to image the partition in its original filesystem?

:confused::confused::confused:

Thanks in advance... :)
[Defy Android Development] Quarx:
Nandroid backup - image with YAFFS filesystem. - not dump of partitions.

When recovery is simply unpack files on the ext3 partition.
[Defy Android Development] racca:
i suppose earlier (android) adoption of yaffs2 played a big part of that decision, but now it may very well be tar.

it's just a lot easier not to change what's not broken, isn't it?
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
Will soon be changed to TAR format (Recovery 4.0 will support the two formats)
[Defy Android Development] dlhxr:
It sounds good.

Wish the recovery would be more powerful after its source open.
[HTC EVO 3D] rank78:
I'm planning on getting the EVO 3D off contract but so far I only see Radio Shack quoting it at $499. Has anyone heard of other retailer pricing? Does Amazon sell phones off contract? If $499 is the lowest and Amazon sells off contract then no tax or shipping cost would be better than RS or BB.

I realize the release date is still ad few weeks away but maybe we can use this thread to update competitor pricing for those looking for off contact purchases.

Radio Shack: HTC EVO 3D - $499

Amazon.com: HTC EVO 3D - $469 (no tax, free shipping)
[HTC EVO 3D] jessejames111981:
bam! 4th thread asking the same question...... congratulations!!!!!!!!

short answer...... its all speculation. Leaked ad showed it selling at $499 off contract but nothing official was released.

oh that $499 price was Radio Shack. Sprint and Best Buy may have a different price assuming that $499 was accurate.

ok let this thread die until stores officially release pricing
[HTC EVO 3D] rank78:
My intention is to keep this thread dedicated to places selling off contract so people don't have to wade through the contract discussion. I would also update the OP to include the list people suggest. I agree there are too many identical threads but this would attempt to direct off contract customers here.

Brick and mortar, online, wholesalers, etc. Preferably avoiding shady places.
[HTC EVO 3D] jessejames111981:
until there are official off contract pricing this thread is useless and would just be cluttered up with guesses providing no real info. Let the other threads collect that junk that have been collecting other people's junk.

When there is official pricing then a thread like this would be useful
[HTC EVO 3D] xPSYCHOTRONx:
I am buying off contract as well. I will keep an eye out on this thread but my guess is that Sprint will have the lowest price,BB will have the highest, & not sure about the others.
[HTC EVO 3D] JTNiggle:
I just for an email about the Evo 3D from Sprint this morning.

It said $199 on contract with $200 instant savings, and that's it. It'd be hard to believe that it would only be $400, but that's kinda how it looked to me. I'll upload a screen shot in a minute.

Isn't this thing supposed to be an e-reader, weird.
[HTC EVO 3D] jessejames111981:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1105871&page=19

thats how it looks at first glance but read it carefully. $200 instant savings. That may not mean $200 2 year contract instant savings. Or it could.

I just have a hard time believing that the new flagship phone will be cheaper retail than 5 other phones they carry all which have a $300-$350 difference between contract and non contract price

The fine print was posted here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1112504&page=3
[HTC EVO 3D] nebenezer:
I'm also buying off contract.

If it's $199.00 after $200.00 in instant savings then I'm guessing that's also after the full $150.00 contract renewal discount.

I'm predicting it will be $549.00 from Sprint and either the same or $599 from BestBuy.
[HTC EVO 3D] rdcrds:
I already posted what the price is in another thread

199.00 upgrade price

200.00 instant savings

150.00 the upgrade savings

total retail at sprint 549.99
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Better off getting a new contract for $200, switching numbers, and canceling the old line for another 200.
[HTC EVO 3D] nebenezer:
that's...actually...not a bad idea :eek:
[HTC EVO 3D] SayWhat10:
wouldnt it be less than $200? like isnt the cancellation fee prorated?

and how quick and easy is it to put your currrent number on your new phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Extremely easy. Just call from a phone other than the two you want to swap. They ask you to turn them off and they ask for some number behind the battery.
[HTC EVO 3D] SayWhat10:
looks like i'll be my new 3D this way then

but do you know about the cancellation fee? like i have a year left on my 2 year contract, would that only be about $100 left for the ETF ?
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
Lol nice loyalty... "I have been a customer for 10 years, where is my gold status...?"

Sir it shows only 2 years.....

Oh shoot I forgot I cancel service and open a new account to save money....
[HTC EVO 3D] heathmcabee:
I'm hoping for some type of release of a off contract price. Seems kind of odd they haven't released it yet. Kind of pisses me off frankly.
[HTC EVO 3D] SayWhat10:
so further thinking, instead of paying $549 for the off contract price, i could buy a new phone, switch the numbers, and pay at most $200 fee. So far $400. Then ebay my old evo for circa $200,and that leaves me with a net off contract price of around 200 bucks for a evo 3d, not bad....
[HTC EVO 3D] lafester:
somehow i think sprint has thought of this already and has ways to prevent it.

good luck though :)
[HTC EVO 3D] SayWhat10:
well i know i can add another line, sprint will love that

then i know i can cancel my old line, all they can do is charge me the ETF fee, which is only $100 now since im 1 year in. so i'll pay $300 for phone and fees. then sell for 200 ebay leaves me with paying only $100 for a evo 3d and off contract at that.

the only hurdle to leap is sprint easily allowing me to switch my old number to the new evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Like what? Stop you from adding a new line? Not allowing you to cancel one of your lines? I tried to talk to a rep about upgrading my discount but was unable to do so.
[HTC EVO 3D] PatG1:
From my experience with Best Buy... if you're not eligible for an upgrade from Sprint and you buy the phone from Best Buy, they just extend your contract for another two years and give you the online price. Is that typically how it works for other stores?
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
I'm eligible for a $75 upgrade if I extend it for two years. I don't think they will give me the phone for $200 though.
[HTC EVO 3D] galaxywhat?:
I know this is probably wrong but its just a wild guess.

Doesn't Best Buy increase phone prices by $150? Nexus S 4G at Sprint= $550 + 150=$700 (Best Buy price)

Evo 3D @ BB=$600-150=450@ Sprint??

Any weight to this?
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Could be. Kind of sucks how much BB marks their stuff up.
[HTC EVO 3D] rdcrds:
Ill have 2 extra evo 3d's sealed which i am going to put on craigslist or sprintusers since i have sold on there before for $425.00
[HTC EVO 3D] heathmcabee:
who cares -10 char
[HTC EVO 3D] sakuul:
Just looked at the new ad for radioshack it will be $599 off contract

[HTC EVO 3D] Greenkknight101:
Hey, i'm off contract as well so i was planning on buying from amazon, seems to be the cheapest. Does anyone know if i can still get it insured through the sprint protection plan (7 dollars a month), if i don't buy it directly from a sprint store?
[HTC EVO 3D] kerms:
You can select TEP protection on amazon.com :)
[HTC EVO 3D] rdcrds:
I have 2 extra coming the 24th and i listed them on craigslist and i will sell 2 of them for $450 each.You will pay 599$ i think at most places as Amazon is back ordered.

I have 4 upgrades and i am going to use 2 for me and use to so i can resell them.If you really want 1 without contract let me know in the next week or so

Hi people , this is my first public application for Android, Business Registry Lite .

This is a software to keep track of your hourly work for a costumer .

With this you can :

- Use a Costumer List

- Use Multiple price list

With this feature you can insert various price list and when you insert a new costumer link with it . Every time you insert a new work report the price will be the one in the price list .

- Suspending and Closing open work (Like when you know when a work is started and not when a work will end ).

- Daily Report : You can have a report of your work for a specific day viewing all the costumer for that day .

- Costumer Report : You can see all the work done for a specific costumer

As you can see I've used a very basic graphic but I wanted to make it as a professional software .

I would appreciate your feedback

This application is now free on market:

search for Business Registry Lite or use this Link

P.s. : There is also a Business Registry full version with also the Send a mail with work report to a customer and the Export to CSV file .

Ciao

Ok, so since I change roms occasionally it is a pain to have my apps try and restore themselves everytime I start a new ROM. I'd be ok if it were just 50 or so apps, but it tries to install every app I have ever downloaded and that is a TON!

I know I can skip the sign in process and turn off "automatic restore" but is there a way to just delete the cache of apps that the Market thinks I want? That way I can allow the auto restore without having it force close my phone because its overloaded.

The only way i can think of is uninstalled each app via the market once it's installed. That will remove it from your account
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] supersobbie:
Has anyone ever figured this out? I have tried uninstalling from "Manage applications" in settings. I have tried uninstalling from the marketplace app. I have went onto the website but there is NOTHING that you can do with the apps in your "My Apps" list.

I flash my phone a few times a month and I think it is nice that it will reinstall all your market apps but there are a LOT that I just install to try and then want them GONE forever. Has anyone ever figured this out?

Thanks,

supersobbie
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AlexNC75:
There is no way to do it from what I can tell. It drives me nuts. I wish Google would fix this.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cdesai:
There is a toggle for it in privacy settings and if using a new gb release you get that option in the setup wizard too
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] supersobbie:
Thanks, but I do not think that is exactly what I am looking for.

I use CM7 nightlies but a few times a month I like to clean house and reinstall. Yes I do get the option to either sync or not sync.... but both ways suck right now. If I sync then I have to go back and remove all the CRAP that is sitting out there... If I dont sync I have to go back and install all the Apps that I actually want from there....

Both way suck. What I want is to be able to remove the items in the list for restore. That is the part that Google needs to fix. It is just annoying as heck.

Thanks,

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PetrichorXFi:
Edit the "market_assets.db" file perhaps?

I believe that Google has said that if you uninstall an app that you did NOT purchase then it will be removed from your "My Apps" section within a week or so? Has anyone seen this?

As far as removing individual apps, perhaps the /data/data/com.android.vending/databases/market_assets.db file can be edited? I have found that deletion of this file, a reboot, then opening the android market; solves the "Missing My Apps" section on the market. I JUST did this solution, so I am not sure if this is a long term fix or not.

This issue in particular may be related to Titanium Backup Pro? Unsure, but I am a user if Titanium Backup

My point is, this database file has our market link data. Claerly when the data is broke the "My Apps" section is missing, yet perhaps there is a way to edit this file to hide a few apps from the "My Apps" section?

I can't post up links yet as I am still a new member, but if someone wants to view the .db files there is an application called "SQLite Database Browser" available on PortableApps dot com. This browser does not appear to show the actual data, only the tables and extents, yet this is at least a start... I believe there are linux database viewers that will actually show the data if desired

--Edit--

I found the Google link about removing downloaded apps. They simply say you can uninstall, and that there is no way to remove the apps from "My Apps" section on com.android.com

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dorbot:
remove apps from my apps

Go to Google Play

Press the downloaded symbol (line with arrow above it) in the top left corner.

Slide over to "All"

To select, hold finger on an app.

Now you can just tap an app to add it to the list.

Repeat for all apps you want to remove.

Press remove in top left.

Done.

This is the fastest wayI have found but really it needs a webpage or something to quickly select from the THOUSANDS of apps cluttering the place.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jimi27:
That is not the true ....

( sorry for bad english, i am french and very angry )

I discovered today that Google lied a lot about removing unused app from his list ...

The app are just hidden for us, Google keep all in his database

i am so angry

i searched a way for blocking market to update itself automaticely, and i found here on this forum the way ( with chattr +i )

And go back to market 3.1.3

And i had big surprise when i saw all the app i had "removed" from list are still here ....
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcjordan92:
Hi,

I have a Bluetooth device on my car and I enjoy playing my music on my mobile (Desire HD ofc) through the car's speakers, and of course making calls and thou.

But every time I turn on the car and then the car-device search and connect to my mobile (automatically! woho) and I configured the mobile to run the "Car-Home" Aplication automaticly when the device is connected,

So then of course I want to put music (through "PowerAMP" - player witch I added icon to the list) So I need to press on the icon of the poweramp and then it opens it and I need to click play and then return to the home-car.

Too many clicks just to make music run.

Is there any way to make my life easier then it already does? :)

Like making the power amp press play automaticly when Bluetooth headset is connected?

or configuring the car-home to do it, it self..?

Thank you,

Yarden.
