[Desire General] thomasaanderson:
I have been running out of space lately, even with my CM7 a2sd+

Was considering getting another ROM which has data2sd, but luckily I found another way. A much better way.

There is a free app on the Android Market called simple2ext.

Now if you are running CM7 and have an ext4 partition, use this app to transfer all your apps, your davlik and cache (data is possible, but not recommended) to that ext4 partition, and your phone will think everything is still on phone memory. That means, yes, widgets can be used while they are installed on your SD. I now run 80% free phone memory :D :D :D

Well happy. I even donated the gold donation ($5) to the developer of simple2ext.
[Desire General] Klewe:
Thanks for the tipp. Will try it!

[Desire General] Heisenberg:
This is an absolutely priceless app! It has saved me the nightmare of constantly seeing the low memory warning. Now I can save as many apps to my Desire as I want!

Note: make sure you set your target destination for app downloads to internal. The app takes care of the rest for you.

Many thanks to the Dev :)
[Desire General] johan86a:
Excellent!

At some points I was thinking about throwing my Desire out the window. Now it's like a completely different phone.
[Desire General] watskeburt:
It helps, but if u try another HBOOT, you will get more space without slowing the phone down. But its more risky

My handset is still lightning fast without another hboot

I think this is quicker, neater and easier for the same result

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sacrifusion:
I have yet to find an answer for this. I have a Viewsonic G Tablet Rooted running Clockwork Recovery. I was having issues installing CM7 so I thought to downgrade the recovery version as I've had some success doing the same on my Evo. After several attempts, I mistakenly selected "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" and selected one of the 4 devices it listed, none of which was a G Tablet. Tried each of the other 3 devices with no success. Ever since I have not been able to boot into recovery at all. Just behaves like it is about to, then seems to shut off. So I'm at a loss, I can't find any way to flash another recovery or even restore to defaults. Any ideas?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramerco:
Are you using ROM manager from the marketplace? You should not. You may need to install recovery using nvflash or another method. Many ways to do this are outlined on the Stickies in the General and Dev sections here.

For the gTablet there are two versions of CWM to use. One is called CWM .08 (there are some other version numbers, but people reference it as CWM .08 around here). This "old" version works just fine, and is meant for the 1.1 bootloader. The 1.1 bootloader is what most ROM's on XDA use, and what the latest stock OTA update uses (3389).

The other is CWM_3.0.2.8 which is used for the 1.2 bootloader and requires a 1.2 friendly kernel. 1.2 based roms are mostly being worked on by roebeet over on the slatedroid forums. He has a TnT based rom, an Advent Vega (stock froyo-ish), and NI Adam/Eden/Froyo rom that are being phased out. The one being continued is a HCAdam/Vegacomb port to the gtab. Nearly any rom can run on 1.2 bootloader, it just needs to be installed in the right way.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sacrifusion:
No, I sideloaded a copy of Rom Manager 4x and did use CWM .08. But where I seem to have gotten myself is my tab shuts down when I boot into recovery. I get to the first splash while I continue to hold power+up and from there the device turns off. This problem conflicts with the fast majority of options I have tried, and ones you have listed. Closest I came was using Terminal but it would grant me SuperUser but then I would get fixrecovery.sh not found.

From Rom Manager, under 'Confirm Phone Model' I have Advent Vega selected. This is the list I seem to have gotten myself into trouble from. It was only after I selected something else that I lost access to recovery. I am assuming Vega is what I want since some guides I've come across seem to be interchangeable.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K J Rad:
That sounds like you're going into APX mode (Power and Volume Down).
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supergroverthm:
Try loading CWM via NVflash. My post does not delete the rom, but installs just the CWM. If you follow the instruction on the next post, you will overwrite the rom.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1058649
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sacrifusion:
Well, the gtab is a a little backwards for me since I am used to the volume up button being in the same direction as the power button from other devices. But I have definately been pressing vol up (and unless the buttons switch prior to boot, the button I am pressing for vol up does raise the vol in the TnT UI). For gits and shiggles I tried vol down as well but seems to behave in the same manner.

I am not a fan of the rom so long as I can get my recovery back. But I'll follow your guide and see if I can make some progress. Most have suggested against NVFlash, but it's not sounding like I have other options left.

Thanx guys
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supergroverthm:
Do learn how to use NVFlash, it's saved me from many soft bricks and boot loops.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sacrifusion:
Got hung up for a minute trying to get passed the ACCESS DENIED for the Tegra SDK till I realized I could just use the Vega drivers. After catching that folly, I followed your guide to a T creating the .bat file and all. Executed it, a terminal popped up for a split second and then was gone. I was hoping for a confirmation, but after waiting a moment and not seeing either device giving me any signs, I tried to boot the gtab into recovery and am back to square one. Still getting the same black screen much like the APX mode. In a sec here for gits and shiggles I'll see if my laptop recognizes as being in APX mode. But after 2 attempts to run the recovery + .bat, I am still pseudo bricked (and yes, I do consider TnT to be a bricked rom XD ).

Ok, I had a different result after I dumped the contents of the nvflash_windows folder into my NVFlash folder. Not sure if it's just me, but I read the instructions a few times and didn't quite see where it instructed to do that. But a wee bit of common sense told me the .bat file isn't going to do a whole lot if it can't see the nvflash.exe file. Think Robeet's post may have gotten caught up in hopping back and forth between the Win and Lin instructions. Currently I am looking at a black screen on my gtab with "Entering NvFlash recovery mode / Nv3p Server" and hasn't done a whole lot since. Been chilling like that for at least 8 min now. Not sure if it's just hard at work, or stopped all together. Will keep you all posted.

And we are in business// That did the trick. And I emphatically agree that NVFlash is an awesome tool. I thank you all for the assistance and hopefully my next post will be in the form of a contribution as opposed to a question.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kamiyo:
My friend was looking at Viewsonic Tablet running Vegan rom and noticed the miniscule lag when scrolling, especially at the beginning of the scrolling.

This isn't really a huge LAG, but a small jump at the start of the scroll.

I have a Cappy on Serendipity vii rom + kernel (and as is the case on all other roms I've tried), there seems to be a threshold of finger movement before a scroll is registered, whether on the apps list or scrolling the wallpaper.

I did some research and came up with a variable like gesture dip or something. Don't know if this is related.

Just wondering if anyone had a definite answer whether this is a threshold coded in for features like detecting long presses, or whether it was an inherent lag between user interaction and system response.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LocutusEstBorg:
Some touchscreen drivers do have this threshold. There is no fix but to change the value every time on boot. The kernel needs to be modded to expose the value.

Hi. After rooting I uninstalled default sms applications app. Now I notice delivery reports on Handcent (message received by persons I send it to notifications) don't work. Yes my network supports it and it is set properly. Did I mess it up by uninstaling default app? The weird thing is also that I still get incoming message notification of default app in status bar.

Is uninstaling default app that caused this? I also removed timescape and some sns stuff. How do I fix it, can I just get default sms app somewhere??

Also I have some problems with Market. It keeps saying download starting but I'd doesnt download. What should I do?

I also tryed to download conversations.apk from one of the posts here. I tryed to open the apk with And Explorer but it said something like there was a problem with package. I tryed some other packages that previously worked but now they don't.

What did I do wrong?

The things I can rmeber uninstalling:

-default sms app

-timescape

-media player

-gtalk an gtalk service provider

-facebook

-peglle, goldrush

HEEEEELP please!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] azadtaufiq:
just reflash your phone..go here or here gud luck
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thekindladies:
Have you tried to copy the conversations.apk using Root Explorer to the /system/app folder and set the permissions similar to what the other applications have: rw-r--r-- ? You then have to reboot your phone.

The same with gtalk and gtalk service provider.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thekindladies:
Untill you manage to get the stock messaging back you can do this (I have checked this by removing the stock messaging on my phone and sensing an sms from handcent to another turned off phone and got the delivery report when that phone was turned on; until then, the sms status was pending):

For delivery reports in Handcent, don't use the handcent menu - delivery rpt.

Instead

go to the handcent menu - settings - notification settings - sent notifications -

check "notify when message is received (needs carrier support)"

.

Then go to Receive message settings -

check "Delivery reports" and uncheck Handcent delivery report

.

If you notice the time stamps on the delivery reports are not correct because you are in a different time zone, the use the "set delivery report offset" to add or remove hours

___________

Settings in Handcent; Settings in default messaging (if you still have it installed); Delivery report

I wish I had looked at this post before nagging my friend to let me use his computer to run SEUS.

Thanks anyway, you are of much help.

I guess default sms would not bother me so much if it LOOKED better. I'm reading about themes but I can't understand half the things.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thekindladies:
Don't worry, after running SEUS you are now sure you have everything.

Make a backup with xrecovery of your phone now before you start uninstalling again. And make a new one after you have added all your user applications and removed what you don't want.

This way you will always have two perfect working backups of you phone and you shouldn't normally need to borrow a computer. They are also important to have if you ever decide to move to custom roms.

If your sd card is big enough, I suggest you also now make a copy of your full /system folder and /data/apps folder - because sometimes it is easier to just copy that one original file back.

There are two different rooted versions (with very minor modifications) of the new stock Gingerbread ROM (anything with the labeled "Sense" is based on HTC's ROM's, though some of them are based on ROM's from other phones), both on the first page of threads in this forum. Look for "4.22.651.2" in the thread subject--and yes, those will keep your phone rooted and S-OFF. I believe there's a third thread with a method of updating without a flash, and yet another with minor modifications to the stock ROM (the Titanium-X ROM).

By contrast, anything that says "AOSP" is based on the Android Open Source Project, and therefore quite different from an HTC ROM, though all functions work on many of them (but there is some debate on how well the various radios work on AOSP ROM's).

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] augy:
That's always smart so you are doing good so far. What you want to do now is download the zip file and place it on your SD card. You can download it directly on your phone if its easier for you (wifi recommended). Just follow the link posted by dodgerbluehero above and I would recommend starting with the odexed version.

Now go into recovery and choose flash from zip - then - choose zip on SD card. Navigate to the downloaded file and hit the power button to select it and again to confirm. It can take a few minutes to write the files so just leave it alone. It will tell you when it's done and you can reboot.

These instructions are from my memory but should be pretty close. You would typically want to wipe but the dev says not to worry about it if you are coming from a stock rom.

Some people get better results with signal/3g speeds/wimax. The consensus seems to be that it varies by phone and area.

You can flash the rom without also flashing the radio and be just fine. Stop worrying and take the leap.
