[T-Mobile LG G2x] southerncomfort76:
I've gone thru a couple dozen different Android phones in the last two years. This is a first that my paid ESPN radio app doesn't work on. Anyone have an idea why or experiencing the same? I've gone thru 4 different ROMs and on third kernel hoping I'd find one to fix the problem.

I'm stumped. And really really hating my commute to work in the mornings without Mike and Mike

As title says.A lot of the times my home button doesn't work.Even pressing and holding does not bring up running programmes or to take me back to home screen.Only thing that solves is a re boot.Tried with touchwiz and go launcher and on KE2 firmware. Anyone else having the same problem?

I have a TG01 and Htc - Imago. Please help me how to extract contacts from Tg01 to Htc. Tks !
[TG01 Themes and Apps] (InsertNameHere):
Pimbackup

It should already be on your TG01, and might already be on your HTC, if not install it and see if you can transfer contacts over on a microsd or microsdhc card.
[TG01 Themes and Apps] drupad2drupad:
Either PIM back up as suggested above or - sync TG01 contacts with exchange or google and sync back on HTC!
[TG01 Themes and Apps] Pere:
I always use Microsoft My Phone service.

1) Install Microsoft My Phone in your TG01. (http://myphone.microsoft.com)

2) Create an account (it's free)

3) Synchronize

4) Install Microsoft My Phone in your new device

3) Synchronize

That's all!!

I posted this in the CoreDroid thread, but no one has given any illumination. I also searched and didn't see anything pertinent. SO, here it is for general consumption:

Thanks for your help. Also, I did confirm in network settings. Usually the network type is HPDSA, but if I use the hotspot it will be UTMS until I cycle airplane to get a fresh network connection.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] sambastrakan:
Hello ...

I've been searching a lot and didn't found where I can modify the date color (the one that appears when pull down status bar), the notifications color (also when pull down status bar), and the icon label color. See attached files.

I've been searching in framework-res, twframework-res, policies.jar and services.jar and also in LauncherPro.apk: there are related stuff but nothing moves ... It's a mess, some resources are defined in more than 1 file so we don't know which is the good one !

Nothing very important but ... if someone knows I would apeciate as I don't like white neither green colors on phone :D

Thanks !!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Dharam_Maniar:
I am not sure, but you can try this:

1) unpack the twframework-res.apk/framework-res.apk...unpack not extract, so that you get readable xml files,

2) In those files, there are options to change color most probably...
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] sambastrakan:
yes, I already search in these files and made some modds for others colors aspects. I'm using a tool to decompile/recompile/build which work well. But ... no effects on the notifications area and I didn't found where is the resource for icon label color ...
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] deadwood01:
if u decompiled the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk look into res/values/styles.xml and res/colour folder most of the font colours are placed there....... alternately u can try assigning the colours in res/values/colour.xml and see if it helps....
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] sambastrakan:
Thanks for theses ideas, I did it for pulldown status. But, nothing for the icon label color ... Just found the icon menu label.

thanks again.
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
Okay, let's get the ball rollin on kexec!

I've taken most of the module from the milestone kexec project. I only did some slight tweaks to get it to compile right.

Attached is a kexec module, the source to said module, a patched kexec-tools, and the bin kexec from said patched kexec-tools.

I built this against one of the OC'd transformer kernels. I cheated a bit and changed the .4 to a .3 in Kconfig for the kernel. Other than that, it should be stock. The bottom of the first post here, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1095269 , has the source.

I've only tried booting transformer kernels, as I don't really know much about building kernels. I've gotten 3 responses from them, immediate hang (failing on the OC in them?), power down, and reboot(prolly kernel panic on host kernel).

I'm not 100% sure where to go from here.

kexec-mod.zip has the module and the source I used to compile it.

kexec-tools.zip has kexec tools. I didn't clean it before zipping, so it should have the bins still.

Also, I'm using backtrack to compile and run these, so kexec-tools may fail outside of it.

Edit: Please view THIS POST for the latest kexec-mod.
[Acer Iconia A500] bonzer2u:

[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
Damn kurjels.

But, it seems to be trying to boot it. I've updated my kexec to actually use the files it should use(as in, a kernel source that was made in the last 3 years).
[Acer Iconia A500] huxflux2003:
How do you repackage the kernel and the initfs in order to kexec it?
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
Good question. That's what I was hoping I could get some help with. The kernel is still closed-source(illegally, I might add), so it's going to be difficult to get a new one built, and I can almost guarantee that it's outside of my knowledge.

If anyone can come up with anything for me to try booting, I'm all ears.
[Acer Iconia A500] thor2002ro:
heres repack script...

DONT TRY TO FLASH IT BACK INTO THE BOOT PARTITION IT WILL BRICK

#!/usr/bin/perl -W

print "\nrepacked boot image written at $ARGV[1]-repack.img\n";
[Acer Iconia A500] huxflux2003:
thanks thor, but i think that since the bootloader is locked what we need is a zimage with init that can be used with kexec, correct?
[Acer Iconia A500] thor2002ro:
yes zimage with init script
[Acer Iconia A500] sergioka:
is this possible?

[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:

[Acer Iconia A500] sp3dev:
Ok, here is my kexec sources based on 2.6.36

http://www.mediafire.com/?zdzpaui7dd8d6e9

still didn't manage to boot a kexec'ed kernel. Well, a couple times i got it to reboot to a regular kernel from mmc (did watchdog kill us?) but mostly it just freezes.

take a look here - http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/kexec

you need at least http://wiki.meego.com/images/0003-ARM-5886-1-arm-Fix-cpu_proc_fin-for-proc-v7.S-and-ma.patch to make it work.

Also, note the discussion here - ttp://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/75711

looks like we need a different cache invalidation for SMP (multi-processor cpu).

Anyways, I'm gonna make away with iconia and get myself an ac100 or asus xformer.. Partly due to Acer's hostility, partly because life without keyboard sucks.. My plan now is to write a custom implementation of sth like kexec for tegra (like splboot for xperia) from scratch because debugging kexec is quite annoying without a hardware debugger.. Basically it should be as easy as disabling mmu and dcache, but.. Well, need to lurk through the A9 assembly manual.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alipk52:
Friends i found some great games like modern combat, deer hunter etc in another forum, they shows links as snap dragon version then samsung galaxy s and other Cortex processors, desire hd, and xperia version, i am confused which one to download, bcoz specs of g2 shows it has scorpian 800mhz processor with adreno 205 gpu, but in desire z specs it shows it has 800mhz snapdragon processor, so correct game selection for desire z is simple, but which one to choose for tmobile g2?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BootloopedMillennials:
You choose the same version you choose for the Desire Z, since the Tmobile G2 uses the same Processor and GPU. The chip is the Snapdragon Scorpion, where Scorpion refers to the application processor core. Some people call the CPU Scorpion others Snapdragon, it basically refers to the same thing.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craiglay:
As above, Snapdragon is the package (system on a chip) and Scorpion the core.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtimmah:
I am somewhat of a phone freak. I am usually buying, rooting, selling various phones. But recently came back and started using a Vibrant again. I am noticing that a few of my favorite games run piss poor on this phone. Namely Squibble, Drag Racing, games that as far as I can tell aren't too heavy.

I have tried a few other ROMS thinking this was the problem, Bi-Winning, Simply Galaxy, Performance V, among some others. I just can't get these games to run right. With or without Lag Fixes, I've even tried stock firmware.

Any ideas which roms are best for gaming? or any other ideas.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thegreatcity:
Haven't played drag racing, but I can confirm Squibble has always lagged really bad for me. Strange that such a simple game will do that, yet some Tegra 2 games will run perfect.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gancho:
I am curious if you installed those games directly from the Google app market or the Amazon App Store. I have actually been meaning to ask around here if anyone else has had trouble with Amazon App Store games. I don't know if it is just the games I chose or if there is something else that is going on behind the scenes.

I first had problems with Angry Birds Rio. It was terribly laggy for me. After changing roms I didn't put the Amazon App Store back on my phone until recently when I added it for Plants vs. Zombies. Once I run that game the phone gets laggy on me until I reboot. I can't play it, stop playing it, then load it back up later without rebooting. Actually I can, it just is almost impossible to play the second time around.

Anyhow, just curious which app store you used to install the games.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corradoswapt:
I have been running trigger 3.2 with dragonmodz kernal. dragonmodz is made for gaming. it overclocks the gpu as well as the cpu. drag racing runs really laggy for me for the first few races then runs fine. the only problem is how addicting that game is. I kill the battery. other games run fine. I installed chainfire 3d and the nvidia drivers. dungeon def hd works as well as samurai II. fun game!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wachalookinat:
I also noticed the horrible lag while playing drag racing. It almost ruins the game. But I can tell you what fixes it completely for me, and I mean no lag, not even the first race. Just install MIUI. I use the "Energy" version. I have a hunch that any gingerbread based rom would likely work tho, although you did mention simply galaxy in your roms that youve tried list. I am torn between having wifi calling, (2.2 based only) and having playable Drag Racing (2.3+ based only). Currently still on Energy in spite of my almost non-existant network in my area. Good Luck

Have you considered the fact that our inability to record in HD is a hardware limitation not software? The x10 has a 1GHz processor while ours is merely a 600MHz one (overclocked to around 700, more or less) still our phone cant encode the video fast enough.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjward23:
Flashing radios can be dangerous, my advice is flash the rom and don't worry about the radio just yet. run the rom for a couple of days, if you feel that your wifi / mobile signal and battery life is not as good as it was before you flashed, then consider flashing the radion.

The easiest way to flash radios is using a PC10IMG.zip. download from the radio link in my sig (its the one recommended for G-Lite) and place on the root of your sdcard then reboot in to the boot loader and follow the instructions it gives you. The phone will reboot and your new radio will be flashed. Make sure you move or delete the PC10IMG.zip from the root of your sdcard if not everytime you go in to the bootloader it will ask you. To reflash.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickyiswhite:
so could i download the radio from the g lite thread, then rename it to PC10IMG.zip?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjward23:
No the one in the G-Lite thread is the img file and needs to be flashed via fastboot, you will need to check the radio thread in the dev section for instructions.

In the link for the radios it does detail how to flash a PC10IMG.zip I suggest you read carefully and follow the more detailed instructions.

Might be safer to download from the thread as well as you can check the MD5 sums against four download. I can't remember where my download is from so you wouldn't be able to check.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lancered:
I'm aware that the phone is hard to power on after it dies completely, so please consider this:

- Motorola Wall charger does not charge the phone. If I insert the plug into the Atrix slowly the green light turns on, if I finish inserting the light turns off.

- Phone charges on my laptop with various USBs (green light is on) but never powers

- Motorola Wall charger works because it charges my Captivate

- I figured out a way to leave the phone at an angle where it could charge with the Motorola wall charger not placed in all the way (because otherwise it would pop back out). It didn't charge the phone.

I got the phone 4 days ago, and I rooted it 2 days ago, but I highly doubt that is an issue here. I ordered it from Amazon.
