[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fermunky:
I am having some weird issues with the nightly CM7 builds and wanted to do a wipe, start fresh. I have all my apps installed to SD. If I do a wipe of just the phone memory, and I re-flash CM7 will I still have my app data safe on the SD card and would be retrievable after I flash? I'm not really that concerned with anything except contacts data and of course that will be safely on Google, but was just curious.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heybobitsme:
If you wipe you'll lose app data even on sd. Part of the wiping process includes the android-secure secure folder which is where the app data us stored. You're best bet is to use Titanium to backup you're apps.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kash20:
Titanium Backup helps backup app data as well, so it should be fine!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
Yep, this is what I use. The paid version (which I bought) offers batch restore, so just hit the button to restore your apps when you flash your new ROM, and let it go for a few minutes, and everything will be back the way you left it.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Nile-lord:
Guys, I'm facing a strange error when I tried to sideload some Apps on my HD2,

I'm using YukiXDA 7392 ROM, 2.12_50 for the radio. SD card 4GB class 4.

Every time I try to sideload I get this message..

I have used different ROMs and Different SD cards but yet I'm facing this error.

Can anybody help me ?

This ROM is supposed to be NODO ROM right

Thanks,

I had all sorts of issues last week. Did a fresh install and installed WPDT 7.1 since it was the last one that came out. Couldn't sideload any app until I uninstalled it and installed Windows Phone Developer Tools 7.0 with October update. Have you recently installed DevTools 7.1 for mango?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Nile-lord:
yap, I have been trying on this. but the main problem I am using WinXP with virtual machine as Win7 but yet the same issue.

do you think I should work on Win7 OS machine or WinXP is good !!
[XPERIA X10 General] spaarc:
What exact mod or ROM do ROM users want since I can't decide what exactly to do....

Aosp , cm6 or cm7 but all of these are already there

Do you want something completely outta ideas

I'll try making that at my best

And please .... No " do it your style stuff "
[XPERIA X10 General] qwer23:
I'm no big fan of HTC, but I'd say Sense since it would be a nice change that I didn't see on my phone before. But well, since sources for Sense are not available, this won't happen in the next time.

To be honest, I can't think of a mod we didn't already see. CM6/7 and MIUI are already ported, you brought us Touchwiz and Dellstage.

You could try porting Arc UI since there's no near-to-complete build atm.

Regards

The gpu and the CPU of the two cell phones should be the same so no Droid x ....
[XPERIA X10 General] spaarc:
The arc UI and bravia engine is already present in tripnarc so no....

Sense maybe after the sdk is released so any more suggestions or are all people happy and content ?? Genuinely
[XPERIA X10 General] cruzin_cruzing:
RCADSMixHd from Nexus One.

Sense 2.1/3.0.
[XPERIA X10 General] spaarc:
What exactly do u mean to say
[XPERIA X10 General] cruzin_cruzing:
Rcadsmixhd is Sense 3.0 and there is also a version that is Sense 2.1 in the same thread.
[XPERIA X10 General] spaarc:
So you mean to tell me that I port sense from nexus one ????/
[XPERIA X10 General] cruzin_cruzing:
Yeah don't they have similar hardware.
[XPERIA X10 General] spaarc:
Dude even the HTC desire has the similar hardware... But still people are unsuccessful
[XPERIA X10 General] qwer23:
How did they port Sense to Nexus One then? Never heard of it before. Shouldn't it really be possible to port Sense from Nexus One? I guess many of our ports started from Nexus One ROMs, right?
[XPERIA X10 General] spaarc:
The HTC desire is exactly like the nexus one so it wasn't a big deal and u even have many devs....

Moreover porting a custom UI is not abt the bin , lib , etc but u have to change the change Apk and framework as they are not framework independent
[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
There are 3 types of Vocoders (Voice Encoders/Decoders) on the Verizon network:

13k

EVRC

EVRC-B

"13k" is the oldest vocoder. It takes up the most VZW bandwidth, and may also consume more battery during a call. It is basically an uncompressed encoder, but may be prone to more noise, since it has the least amount of signal processing. Note: If there is a battery penalty, it won't affect you when you are not in a call.

"EVRC" does data compression, and uses variable bitrates to get more efficient use of VZW bandwidth. This is the default setting on your SamChg.

"EVRC-B" is a more modern vocoder that uses variable bitrates more intelligently, along with other signal enhancements to improve quality. Low-level noise should also be reduced with EVRC-B.

EVRC is the default, because the whole Verizon network supports it. It is the "safe bet". However, EVRC-B was implemented on the Verizon network years ago, and should be available almost everywhere by now.

Note: I am not responsible if you brick your phone. Do this at your own risk.

Note: The menu selections below may occur very slowly (They are on my phone). Be sure you see the selections change before going to the next step.

If you want to change your vocoder to EVRC-B (or, to 13k), follow these steps:

On your phone dialpad, dial: **772. You should see a box pop-up for "Enter SPC"

For the SPC, enter "000000"

You will now be in the "TerminalMode Service Menu", with buttons on the bottom for controlling the menu selections. You should see "View", "Edit", and "Done". If not, keep pressing the "down" button slowly, and wait for the screen to update.

Press the "down" button until the asterisk is next to the "Edit" selection.

Press the "Enter" button

Press the "down" button until you see "VOCODER" (This was 11 button presses on my phone). You should see "EVRC" as the selection.

Press the "right" button until you see "EVRC-B" or "13k" (whichever you want to select)

Press "Enter" to save your selection.

Press "OK" to exit the TerminalMode Service Menu screen.

Your phone may reboot at this time. If not, you should probably reboot anyways.

To make sure your EVRC-B/13k selection was properly saved after rebooting, you may want to re-enter the **772 Service Menu and select "View" to check your VOCODER setting.

Good Luck! (And, Good Audio!)

Cheers,

¿GotJazz?

If I've helped you out, send a little "thanks" my way ... :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] distortedloop:
Awesome tip. Trying it now.

Sent from Thunderbolt
[Verizon Droid Charge] 87linux:
That's surprising how easy it is to fix. Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Cruiserdude:
Thanks, just tried it out, I'll have to let you know over the next few days if I notice a difference!
[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterDLai:
Thanks for the tip!

From what I've read on previous discussion about vocoders, the difference is mostly (or entirely?) in the quality of your own voice as heard on the other line. Regardless, still a great tip.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
Hi, Peter -

Have you noticed any audible difference on your end while listening to a call?
[Verizon Droid Charge] teddykgb715:
So what encoder have you all found to be the best?
[Verizon Droid Charge] yyhd:
+1, which is the best to use?

I'm gonna give EVRC-B a try,
[Verizon Droid Charge] ColonelSeitan:
Yeah wondering if folks have noticed an improvement with this method(after asking whoever they're talking to)
[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterDLai:
I don't think I really noticed any difference on my end.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hokulus:
I just changed mine to EVRC-B to give it a try as I've never used this one before. On my old touch pro 2 I always switched mine to 13k over standard EVRC and there was definitely a difference on both ends with that phone. EVRC-B was not available on that phone but 13k was an improvement to be sure, especially in speaker phone mode. Your mileage will probably vary depending on where you are and who you're talking to.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
OK ...

I guess I'll start asking my Friends & Family(TM) if they hear a difference.
[Verizon Droid Charge] addictedhacks:
It does sound alot more clear to the other person and sounds like im closer
[Verizon Droid Charge] yyhd:
So does changing to EVRC-B affect both sides of the call? Swear I made a call yesterday and I could barely hear and understand what the hell the other person was saying. She was on a fixed landline too.

GummyCharged 1.8.1

Anyone tried this on gummy charged 1.8.1? I was running the stock rom before and it worked great, but after entering the menu via the dialer, as soon as I select EDIT and hit the OK button the phone instantly reboots.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
Ahem .... ;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] hokulus:
excuse me I meant the enter button NOT the ok button!
[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
Well, hokulus, I tried to install GCv1.8.1, and it was sooo flaky, I had to go back to rooted stock EE4. My phone was pretty much unusable with GCv1.8.1, and I never got to the point of being able to test this modification.

That said, I would expect the Vocoder functionality to be part of the Baseband programming, and not dependent on the Kernel/ROM - so, I'm not sure why you would see the rebooting after pressing "Enter" on GC.

I do know that pressing "OK" while in the Service Menu forces an instant reset, so that's why I suspected your previous post on pressing "OK" instead of "Enter" caused the problem. If you are pressing "Enter", I am not sure why you are seeing the resets.

What happens if you go into the "View" mode instead of "Edit" mode and scroll down to the Vocoder option? Do you see if your selection was saved regardless of the reset?

Cheers,
[Verizon Droid Charge] skuzz:
The OP's post is a bit of a misnomer. 13K is "compressed" it is Qualcomm PureVoice 13k, just like all other codecs, it's a lossy codec that throws away data to make the voice sampling smaller.

They're all lossy compression algorithms, just 13K is the oldest of the three, EVRC and EVRC-B are newer variants on a theme with supposedly better audio quality. Carriers implement them because they use less network bandwidth. One could argue your call might not drop as much because you're taking up less capacity. They all pretty much sound like crap though.

Also, the network can override your manual decision in some situations, so there's no guarantee that choosing a codec manually will get you the codec of your choice.

Also, also, IIRC, the chosen codec is used for your link to<->from the cell net, but it doesn't change what the other user you're talking to is using, so perceived audio improvement on the other end may be negligible in some situations.

What aspects of gummy did you find flaky? I'm just curious because I found stock unbearable and occasionally problematic. By contrast I have run every iteration of Gummy, so far, without anything beyond a minor annoyance (generally things fixed by kejar in a matter of days).
[Verizon Droid Charge] SDO1000:
I've just updated my Droid Charge to Gingerbread. The method descibed to enter the TerminalMode Service Menu is the same; however, once you are in the menu, the options have changed. It appears that there is no longer an option for 13k, which is the only selection that made my Droid Charge function at an acceptable level. Totally disappointed.
[Verizon Droid Charge] blueis300:
hmm something cause my phone to reboot while in this mode.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] marhodges:
I was previously able to copy files from my pc through USB to the transformer to both the removable and internal memory; however, this week I get a "Cannot copy file; device has stopped responding or is disconnected". I can still browse the files that are there and even delete them, but I cannot copy to either memory area.

I see in XDA and google searched that this error is usually fixed by formatting the drive, but with internal storage?? I dont want to wipe the memory, but I would like to transfer files this way.

I can connect external hard drive through the keyboard dock and transfer files. just not through the provided cable and the PC. I have uninstalled the drivers and rebooted the pc and reinstalled with no luck.

Any ideas are appreciated.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] marhodges:
Bump. No ideas?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] marhodges:
Btw. I have updated to 3.1 but I had this problem on 3.0

No one else had things problem?

Could it be the cheap ass cable??
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xformulax:
if i had to guess, i'd just say the cable is bad, or you need to remove and reinstall MTP drivers.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sieghawk:
I also have this problem, tried restarting the pad, doesn't work....

If anyone knows how to fix this it'll be greatly appreciated!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] PhoenixFx:
Most likely a windows driver issue, try connecting it to a different PC (to narrow down the problem: if it works on a different PC, then we know its a driver issue, if it doesn't then we know the problem is with the Tablet or the cable).
[Captivate General] dizx:
This has been bugging me for weeks and I've yet to hear a response from Nitrodesk's support team.

From the synced contacts list in the Touchdown app, when you long press on a contact and try to add it to phone, it will not show up on the phone's contact list.

I made sure the display settings were all checked off in Phone, SIM, and Google to make sure I can see everything.

This worked well for me on Froyo, but I have yet to get it to work on any 2.3.3. ROMs I've flashed.

Can anyone confirm they are having the same issue?
[Captivate General] kennonk:
I am running Continuum 5.5 and I can copy contacts to my phone from Touchdown just fine. Have you tried selecting the menu option to copy all touchdown contacts to the phone or is this just a problem with individual ones?

I wouldn't expect any response from Nitrodesk support. They will use any excuse possible to not help you troubleshoot a problem if you are not running 100% stock. At least that is my experience. If you said Captivate and 2.3.3 in the same breath they will most likely ignore you now.
[Captivate General] dizx:
This is just for individual contacts that I want one-by-one from Touchdown to the phone. I can batch copy the entire list to the phone, but that's not what I want to do.

Are you referring to "Update Contact Changes to Phone"? If so, that's not exactly what I'm shooting for. Is there another setting I'm missing that helps with individual transfer?
[Captivate General] dizx:
NM. Problem solved, though I don't clearly remembering having to do this on Froyo.

I had to make sure that my Touchdown account was listed in Accounts and Sync. However, I couldn't just simply add it --- I pressed the Touchdown listing but it did nothing. I had to batch import my Outlook contacts so that it would get added on the overall accounts list. I was avoiding having to batch import so that's why it took me so long to get to this point.

Now that I have it listed, I could now add individual Touchdown contacts to Phone.

Again, I don't remember having to do this on Froyo, or that it added the account without my knowing it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Mr_Sinister:
Hello all. Got my tab today from ebay and have mixed feelings. First off, I like this tablet better than the xoom-hands down. However, I may have the glass seperation issue on the upper right corner, I hope it doesn't get any worse. Also, I cannot find the 3.1 update yet-can't even pick USA as a location to look for an update. Is this tablet worth keeping? I can't even install Google Voice. Your thoughts please.

Thank you for your honesty.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ralexand:
If you search hard enough on this forum you will find a HC-compatible GV app.

And I'm sure once the product goes retail you'll be able to get the 3.1 update (assuming that Samsung will have it ready as of 6/8).

Is it worth keeping? I think only you can answer that question.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cosimoss:
There is a Voice function with search already in 3.0.1 on the 10.1. As to GV I thought that Goole were still working on a fully compatible version of GV.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Ravynmagi:
It sounds about right. It has 1GB of RAM, however some of it is devoted to the GPU. And after formatting and the OS, 13GB is about what's left to the user on a 16GB model.

Is there any way to get out of having to enter a pin because of the exchange server security requirements? I don't have any info on my work email I am worried about.. so it would be nice not to have to have a PIN/Password to be able to use it.
[EVO 4G General] popper668:
I have an exchange, it doesn't have to ise a pin at all, I just put it on to the native the email app

Just open and your in.
[EVO 4G General] clintre:
If the Exchange is setup to require PIN, not all are, then no you will not be able to get around it. It depends on the IT policy who is running the Exchange environment. They can set it to wipe your phone as well if they wish. Both the native app and Touchdown will do this. If they allow other methods of accessing Exchange, then this will not be an issue. However if they are requiring a PIN then they probably don't.
[EVO 4G General] holmern:
Ok. Guess I'll see if I can access it through other means than exchange. Not sure. Just hate typing in the pin all the time!!

Thanks for the info though
[EVO 4G General] cjh6386:
I run an exchange server myself with a few activesync devices running. It sounds like the pin you are describing is imposed by your system administrator, when I set up an account on an evo or inc all I need is my domain credentials and a server address.
[EVO 4G General] overallcoma:
I also run an Exchange setup. I can verify that a few native e-mail apps from 2.1 days somehow bypass certain Exchange requirements, much to my dismay (Motorola comes to mind). They pretty much lied to Exchange and said they were compliant when they weren't and didn't enforce some rules. However, all the new stuff follows the ActiveSync rules, assuming that's the setup you're aiming for. I suppose if you really wanted to bypass the security you could check to see if they left IMAP or POP open, but then they'd just be some not-very-smart sysadmins.

Also, you shouldn't need anything more than your e-mail address and your password to ActiveSync. After the initial attempt at syncing it will ask for you to verify the security permissions. If it drops out and asks for your server name, domain, and such then tell your admins to fix AutoDiscover.

Oh, and while the thought of your admins being able to wipe on command is scary, you will have the ability to remote wipe your device in the event you lose it. It'll be accessible under OWA, so that's handy.

Hello,

I'm interested in the Sensation, but i've readed the problem about the bootloader. My question is: do you think we will have an unlocked one? (official or not)

The custom recovery has saved me a lot of times :P

And how much time do you expect? (1 month, 1 year,2,never?) [i know it's a difficult question]
[HTC Sensation] xjojo:
Did you even read the headlines of the other topics in here???
[HTC Sensation] JWhipple:
We could answer but unless we have an insider at HTC leaking info or are a developer it would all be purely speculation. You'd have a better chance at guessing how many grains of salt are in a shaker accurately than guessing when they will have it done.
[HTC Sensation] supersx:
Yes, but there are one saying that they have said that they will unlick it. Another saying the first one is a fake and another one with intructions about flashing one ROM using clockmodwork, but clockmodwirk uses a custom boot (i think). So i really didn't understand it.

It's more easy when you have been following the news for a while than just arrive :P

Hello everybody,

Here is the unyaffs tool for Windows including the latest cygwin1.dll to get it working

without having to install Cygwin

! :)

This tool can extract *.img (YAFFS) android files.

This is a command-line utility.

Usage: open cmd, go to unyaffs.exe folder and type: unyaffs image_file_name

DOWNLOAD on Mediafire

Over 900 downloads !

Sources : unyaffs project, Cygwin
[Android Software Development] Droidzone:
What did you use to compile it on Windows?
[Android Software Development] adridu59:
I didn't compile it, just downloaded unyaffs binaries and grabbed Cygwin dll from cygwin binaries.

Very simple stuff but I'm not sure everyone will think to do it. Installing Cygwin is a pain, this way is much more simpler. :)
[Android Software Development] bombadier:
Cant get this to work get a STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION at eip=004010B0 error,have tried various tutorials/sources and just cannot get it to work :mad:

EDIT I am too stupid to get this to work,managed to get what I needed extracted by using ext2explore.
[Android Software Development] E:V:A:
a) Well if you didn't compile it, where did you get the binaries from? (And who compiled them, what version etc.??) Give us a link!

b) Cygwin is generally a piece of cake to install! But it doesn't contain any YAFFS binaries or sources!

So what have you been doing dude, and why should we trust your stuff??

To everyone: I would NOT run any exe from this guy, unless he can show his sources and what he did.
