On the HD2 installer select MAGLDR Repartition, 200MB,connect your USB to pc/laptop and press repartition.

Go to ad recovery>wipe data,cache partition,and dalvik(advanced)

You are then ready to flash your ROM.

Go to install zip from sd card,choose your ROM(having already placed it on the root of your sd card).

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mootmetal:
the best thing to do when you want to change the nand rom is to make a clean install ...

- task 29

- radio 2.15

- magldr 1.13

- REcovery and install the zip from the sd card
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malybru:

[General Questions and Answers] zeoran:
Epic 4G - is there a way to remove the stock apps/games or at least the shortcut in the menu, WITHOUT rooting it?

~Z
[General Questions and Answers] Keithn:
Some launchers (such as launcher pro) allow you to hide apps from your app drawer.
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
NO

. To remove stock apps, you

have to

root the device. I don't know of any launchers where you could hide the app shortcuts, but why not just root it?
[General Questions and Answers] blatadude:
Go here (http://forum.androidcentral.com/sprint-epic-4g/70196-sprint-samsung-epic-4g-official-froyo-ec05-update-zip-method-custom-odin-packages.html) and follow instructions but before u put it on ur card open it and find a folder called app and remove what u don't need. (My motto is if I don't know what it is it is best to leave it alone) then flash like it says to and u will have only what you wanted for apps

~sent from that thing over there
[General Questions and Answers] haydarm:
It's worth trying blatatude's method I guess, but in all my experience with Android phones, rooting is required.
[General Questions and Answers] LordManhattan:
You can hide apps with LauncherPro, GO Launcher and others.

If you root there's several methods you can use to

delete

apps.

1. Use Titanium Backup

or

2. You can use a simple and fast method, which is Root App Remover from the market.

or

3. If you decide to start flashing new ROMs, you can delete them before you flash. Download the ROM to your computer, open (do not extract) the ZIP with WinRAR and delete the app(s) and then flash it.
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
I know about these ways of removing apps when rooted, but it's just the different launchers I didn't know of which could hide the app icons.
[General Questions and Answers] LordManhattan:
Yeah, i guessed that, but the last part (removal of apps) is for the OP :p

The 3G TF and Slider devices, according to Asus UK facebooks page, are apparently being released in the UK in August. So if you are holding out for one, you sure have a fair time to wait, but at least you know a rough time scale now. Not sure about releases for the rest of the world though.

I have no interest in a 3G or 4G enabled Tablet, I already have two phones (Samsung Droid Charge with VZ and an HTC Inspire 4G with AT&T) and data plans for each, so I can't afford a third data plan ;) Besides, I can tether my Transfomer to my phones if no WiFi is around, so I'm covered.

[Desire HD General] LandUzu:
Hi guys, i seem to have missed out my unlocking my DHD after eng s-offing and flashing custom radio and ROM.

Cant remember exactly the process i followed but i wanna upgrade to LeeDrOiD's GB ROM tomorrow and want to make sure i can use other sims after that. Is there now a one stop tool that will just give me SimUnlock? Im tied to TMob UK at this stage.

Best Regards
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Go to 1.32.405.6, use nand backup if you have one, or use Raidroid ROM, search for it. Then use my radio s-off tool to do SimUnlock. You also have to go back to the older radio for the tool to work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyhulk:
Hey, guys. I have had my SG2 for a couple of days. Loving it. I firmly believe it's the best phone out there and I have zero issues with the phone. It's as close to being perfect as a smartphone can get.

One question: When I launch the camera, I have noticed that the flash is off by default. I always have to turn it back to auto. Is this by design? The camera app doesn't seem to remember my settings and I never notice that the flash is off until after I take a picture. Is there any way to get it to stay on "auto" by default?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] budco2000:
it should be remembering the settings, Mine does. It stays on auto at all times and never switches on its own
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyhulk:
I think I just realized what's going on. I use the front-facing camera (which disables flash) and when I switch back to the rear-facing camera, flash stays off. I imagine that with multitasking, this will occur any time you go back into the camera app after you have used the front-facing camera. Yeah, I'm an idiot.

So yeah, the phone is perfect.
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
Guys I just got the acer iconia tab a500...love this device....and wanted to know if there is an update for 3.1 available in asian regions??

And the internal storage was supposed to be 16 gb...I got only 14 gb??

plzz suggest me apps and stuff...!
[Acer Iconia A500] abats:
It's actually 15,6GB, and some of it is used by the system I guess. Also there is no 3.1 yet. If you took a minute to read this forum you would have found out it will be released in a couple weeks.
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
3.1 has not been released yet for this tablet. Anywhere. Part of the 16gb is used for system partitions.
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
I know...I went thru the forums...just wanted to confirm for the asian region..
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
I didn't install any apps on my tab and now it shows 12.47 gb free and 12.58 gb available!

When I first saw it was 14 gb!
[Acer Iconia A500] netarchie:
The Stock apps also take some place i guess, meanwhile congrats on your A500 purchase!
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
But first it was 14 gb.....and ofcourse with the stock apps...how much memory did you get when you first booted ur device.. ?
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
12.58gb total sounds about right for internal storage. Mine (from USA) shows 12.51gb total. (It was the same a month ago too.) The rest of the internal storage is used for the system, boot, recovery flexrom and cache partitions. cache alone is about 1.2gb. system is 800mb, so that's about 2gb already.

Do you have a 16gb micro sd card installed? Perhaps you had seen the total from it (should be around 14.91gb total) and confused it with internal storage?
[Acer Iconia A500] zeuslee:
Mine 27.46GB for 32GB A500
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
I don't have a sd card on this device....and I'm telling I saw it stating 14gb total 13.something.. free!
[Acer Iconia A500] muqali:
The device has 16GB of flash that has 2GB partitioned for the "system" and the other 14GB are what you see as the "sd". Why they call it sd when it's not an sd card but soldered on flash is beyond me.

If you've ever looked at all the little partitions that you have to write to a device to recover it with nvflash you'll see where it all adds up and eats up a couple gigs of your drive. Also, running a mount and df from adb shell or a busybox shell will show you the mount points and size/free space of the partitions.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbstudios:
Hi all, hopefully someone can help. I am getting a weird force close on the Maps app when I try and use Navigation. From the Navigation app, I choose a contact (or type an address) and click navigate and immediately Maps force closes every time. What's odd is if I go into the Maps app itself i can type a destination and it works perfectly until I try and get directions using navigation, then it does the same force close. Any one have ANY idea what might cause this or how to fix it?

I am running Das BAMF Ginger Remix 2.0-5 with stock kernel and newest release radio.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HookedOnTV:
Is it possible to switch out the lock screen? There is a post in the dev thread where someone has offered up a replacement but says it only replaces the 'vanilla' and not sense. If you run this ROM you have sense, right? If someone could point me in the direction where I might be able to learn more about how this may/not be possible that would be great.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sealdog:
Widgetlocker?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
I could be wrong but I think there might be a sense lockscreen apk in data/app or system/app. I'm thinking if you delete or rename that, you'll have the "vanilla" sliding tabs.

Note: This information may be entirely incorrect.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWhetstone02:
FYI :)

NOTE: If you do rename the WarmZ 2.2 lock screen file ---> /system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk

as mentioned by k_nivesout, you will then have the vanilla lock screen.

With the vanilla lock screen, you are going to need the vanilla clock app.

The htc sense clock app and vanilla lock screen does not play well together. You will get an alarm that goes off, and you cannot stop it until you restart your phone.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HookedOnTV:
Thanks for the help. I have progressed in my quest. I have found that the lock screen I have been trying to get installed, posted by gomorrah, uses update-script that isn't compatible with CWM3 (ammend vs edify). Trying with another recovery I am now at the point of not having Launcher2 so I'm chasing that piece now.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
I have a major question. As of a week ago my phone suddenly began taking 20-30 minutes to boot. I'm not quite sure what caused it but one morning my phone booted to a black screen that only showed my toolbar at the top. After it randomly vibrating over a course of 20-30 minutes it finnaly showed my screen lock and wallpaper. Now it does this every time I boot!

I need to know if there is a way to fix it, for it's not only a nuisance but a safety issue. What if my phone were off and I needed to make an emergency call?

*Samsung Vibrant

*Firmware 2.2

*Not rooted, but at one time was

*Clockworkmod installed

The default answer is to use ODIN to get back to JFD... if you have issues THEN, well, let us know.

I have a guide in my signature with the files needed as well, going back to stock.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
First, is this a known issue that can be solved with ODIN? Also, if I were to ODIN do I need to delete information on the phone or do I just get the stock files, download ODIN, and flash my phone?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
This is not a known issue... which you know, because you searched before posting.

You should move any sensitive/important info to your pc and backup... you should not lose that data, but if you do, now you can't blame me.

Just use odin and the files from the guide.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
So the data on my phone currently shouldn't interfere with the flash. Because I remeber hearing somewhere that old data from the android market and GPS can mess with the phone after it is flashed causing the GPS and market possibly to not work properly afterward. Is this correct?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadJoe:
Huh? Just ODIN the dang thing back to JFD already! When you do that, all data is erased except what is on your EXTERNAL SD (although this COULD get wiped, but is SHOULDN'T). Back up data on both your internal and external SD's to your computer that you don't want to lose, then follow s15274n's signature links to his tutorial on how to ODIN back to JFD and FOLLOW IT precisely and you will be fine.

EDIT: And when that works, and you're all back to normal again, don't forget to swing back here and THANK every post you can find by s15274n by clicking the thanks button.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
I'll be sure to do that, THANK YOU both of you! Especially you s15274n for your wonderful tutorial. It worked like a charm, now all I have left is to replenish my apps and update my phone to 2.2. THANK YOU!!!!!!! No GPS issues, NO Android Market issues, NO issues at all! T-H-A-N-K Y-O-U!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
^ Might I encourage you, BEFORE going to stock 2.2...

Maybe root with the update.zip in the guide and flash a 2.2 based ROM (THAT IS STABLE). Your phone will be better than stock 2.2 and you will have a lot more options.

Your call. Just know your phone would be better on Trigger, Zen or Project V than stock.

EDIT, of course I have a guide on that too :)

EDIT2, saw your post in the guide... also replied there.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
Thanks but I think I'll stick with stock 2.2. However, I'm thinking of installing SetCPU but of course (:)) I have a question before I attempt it. If I were to uninstall setCPU will the speed of my phone go back to original stock settings or will it stay with the custom settings I had set?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iLikeAndroids:
It would stay with the stock settings.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
If you are rooting and flashing a kernel to overclock, why are you not using a rom?

Voodoo is better than overclocking/poorer battery in my opinion.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaxHoss:
I have this SAME problem.. 20-30 mins to reboot.. and randomly vibrates while booting up. I just opened a thread about how I can unroot 2.2... you know, please help! I didn't do this until I rooted my 2.2 vibrant. Now i have no idea how to unroot.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Did you read the thread? Odin to jfd.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
To answer your boot question LaxHoss it is most likely caused by a glitch in the samsung in vibrant. I came upon a list of glitches on the device a few days ago and discovered this issue. If you are using either the "password" or "pin" password locks on your phone and your phone takes a long time to boot then the screen lock is the cause of the boot issue... To correct simply go to:

Settings > Location and security > Set screen lock > (Then choose "pattern" or "none").

This is how I solved the boot issue for me.

However, for your root issue I would suggest to odin to stock and next time you root use "Z4root" or "Superoneclickroot". Just follow s15274n's guide to odin back to stock, it's real easy.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
If going back to JFD, strongly encourage using the update.zip in the guide to root... your pc will think superoneclick is a virus. rageagainstthecage has exploits your pc will hate.
