[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeyN0teSpeaker:
So I've been receiving these strange notifications periodically that are "recommending" bizarre applications. The notification looks like a star, and when pressed sends me to an application in the market. I've been on android for quite a while and I have never had this happen before, so I'm wondering if anyone has had similar problems. Or maybe this is some "feature" that I'm not aware of.

I was reading in the Vibrant forums about something that seemed similar, and in that case it was caused by a separate application. I wanted to throw it out to the t-bolt community and see if anyone has experienced this and/or knows what would cause it.

Also, if this is something that has been previously discussed, I give you permission to flame me. My several google searches didn't bring anything up. Thanks in advance.

As a side note, I am knowingly marking this thread as a question while knowing that there are no question marks in the actual post. I think the question is inferred (this could possibly spur some philosophical debates).
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FreemanB:
It sounds like one of your installed apps is using AirPush to put ads on your notification bar. I'd check the apps you installed or updated recently to see if any of them are known to do this. I believe there are also some apps that can detect which installed programs are using AirPush as well, but I haven't tried any of them personally. If you search for AirPush, you'll see more info about it, as well as learn that it is basically universally reviled by users.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
This is definitely AirPush. It sends ads straight to your notifications so as the person above me said, you should check out your recently installed/updated apps to see if any have this enabled. It's a pain in the ass to have that little icon up there all the time.

OP, don't be so quick to be flamed :P
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JBO1018:
I don't know where it is or how to get it (I assume the air push website) but apparently you can get a tool, so to speak, from air push that will opt you out of the ads and stop them from pushing notifications to your phone. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful as to where to acquire this, but what I read said that it's provided by air push themselves.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeyN0teSpeaker:
AirPush opt out

Thanks for the quick replies. I found out that there's an app in the Android Market made by AirPush, Inc. themselves that allows you to opt out. I installed it, and I'll see if it solves the problem.

As far as the flaming goes, I figure some people just need to get it out of their system, so I was giving those people an excuse. ;)

Thanks again for the replies.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rockon83:
So I've rooted my Thunderbolt using the instructions on AndroidPolice to achieve S-OFF. My understanding is that with S-OFF is that you can flash any signed firmware.

However, I see that MR2 came out and on AndroidPolice it notes "installing this over a rooted phone WILL brick it". (i can't post the link since i have under 10 posts)

I don't understand why?

Any insight?

(I've searched the forums, and read all the newbie rom flashing faq's, etc.)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xboxfanj:
You can unroot. And that would fix it. And then after that you could root. Unroot with SuperOneClick

I cannot use bluetooth headset and wifi calling simultaneously on the same call. If I attempt to initiate such a call it promptly disconnects before even attempting to dial. If I try to turn bluetooth on while already in a call over wifi it immediately disconnects the call.

I would like to know if this is a hardware or software design issue or if it is a problem with my particular phone. Can anyone make such a call?

Otherwise both my wifi and bluetooth are rock solid. I walk all around using either technology in a call without problem.

I consistently had that problem with CM7 on Mt4G.

It works with Froyo on G2X (EB 1.0.2 and faux 'stock" UV Ext4 kernel). I have not tried it on G2X and CM7 - but it sounds like it is a CM7 issue.
[G2 and Desire Z General] killswitch11:
I've posted a few times trying to find answers but no dice. I seem to be having a really unique issue with the Market. This has occurred on the last three ROMs I've tried.

I've restored apps via Titanium Backup and when I go to the Market > My Apps, some of them are listed and some are not. The ones that are not listed do not get updated. In fact, if I find them in the Market, it gives me the option to Install as if I don't have them at all. Also, when I do install, many times the app will download and then not install until I try about three or four times. I have been doing a Superwipe every time between ROMs and am just at a loss. Anyone else at all know about this or am I just a special case? :rolleyes:
[G2 and Desire Z General] nonione:
yeah happens to all of us dont worry haha

try deleting the cache from the market (go to setting>apps>manage apps>market>clear cache) that helps when the apps are not showing its progress downloading and installing

also if you have the full version of titanium backup you can tap on the apps (for longer than usual) and select attach to market
[G2 and Desire Z General] killswitch11:
Cool, thanks for the pointers. Cleared the Market cache and I was considering upgrading to the paid version of Titanium Backup. I think I'm sold now....! Hopefully these Market hiccups will finally go away.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] WiredPirate:
Burn the Rope, now on Android, is available for free in the Market. The first time I ran it on Atrix it fc, so that might happen. Also it doesnt take up the whole screen. :( but you can get it now here. Hopefully it gets updated soon w/ some bugfixes and screen resolution changes..
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CC Lemon:
This was disappointing... I thought it was going to be "You have to burn the rope". Still always cool to see a free game.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] WiredPirate:
oOo.. never heard of it but just Googled it and seen its a Kongregate game.. There is a Kongregate Arcade app for Android.

"Burn the Rope" was a popular iOS game that many people wanted on Android last year. I guess better late (and unstable) than never.?:rolleyes:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfasu77:
My evo was recently afflicted with a USB fail, and will not charge and is out of warranty. It quite simply is the best phone i've ever owned, but i must move on to the next great device. One of the biggest selling points of a new phone, for me, is developer support.

I'm leaning towards an Evo 3D.. but the upcoming Galaxy S II makes it difficult to pull the trigger on a the preorder. Any thoughts?

Yup, that's what I've read, too. Agreed.

Not to mention, I think anyone who has had an HTC, would have a hard time enjoying a samsung.

I just don't understand HOW so many Evo owners are moving to Evo 3D. I mean, I got my Evo on launch day (june 4th -also the same day the gb ota became avail, 1 whole yr later, still support). I know im not eligible for upgrade til feb, and that's only PARTIAL upgrade price.

Is everyone else shelling out the 500-600$ ?

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esimpson1:
I'm certainly hoping for help, but also to serve as a warning...

I pulled a noob move and tried to install the Gingerbread 2.3.3 update. I was using Odin3 1.7 and everything SEEMED to go correctly. When I got to the point where I was supposed to wipe the cache and reset data, I got error messages saying "unable to mount /ext filesystem. Bizarre.

At any rate, I tried to flash back to both DJ30 and EA24. My Sprint Galaxy Tab is a brick now. I can still get into the download screen, so hopefully all is not lost. I've tried Odin 1.3, 1.7 and (I think) 1.83. I also found an EA24 flasher on one of the XDA forums but always get "Cannot open binary file!" It appears that it's looking for the .tar file to be in a specific location. I've tried c:\ c:\Program Files c:\Program Files (x86) -- nothing works.

If I had to make a guess (and again, noob move) I don't know how to completely wipe the partition clean and repartion, flash EA24, etc.

I've seen tons of commentary on non-Sprint Galaxy Tabs. Can anyone help with a US Sprint Galaxy Tab?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daffy4u:
There is another EA24 flasher for Odin from the same thread as the "can't open binary" version. It worked for me... I wasn't bricked but had lost my camera function.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esimpson1:
Failed...

This didn't work. I get the attached error.

Can you tell me which directory you installed this to, and, if you had any command-line arguments?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daffy4u:
I got that same error that's why I used the Odin version I linked in my previous post. Download the zip file, read the text file instructions on how to flash the image and you should be good to go.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esimpson1:
I did that...

I did that. It fails.

It gets to the "recovery.bin" file, and then fails. Give me a minute and I'll post a reply with the screen shot...

This is what I get when I use Odin... It simply fails...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daffy4u:
Hmm, I'm too much of a noob to know why it would fail. :(

Maybe you could post in the thread with the flasher and for more input.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esimpson1:
I would but.. That post is now "suspended." The guy who wrote it has a Xoom now and couldn't care less about the Sprint Tab. Just my luck, right?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daffy4u:
The thread is still open. You might be thinking of another thread.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esimpson1:
I think you're right. I'm thinking of the Zypher thread.

At any rate, regardless of whatever firmware I try to flash, it either fails outright, or, it hangs at the Samsung Logo. *Nothing* seems to be working.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esimpson1:
Defeated...

I have agreed to send in my Sprint Galaxy Tab.

I have failed.

XDA has failed.

Just sayin'.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jarubcic:
Use the gui version of heimdall. Just launch heimdall, then put your tab in download mode and plug it into your pc. Once plugged in, launch the heimdall driver.exe and go to one of the drop down menus and click list all devices. You should see a gadget serial appear. Select it and force install the driver. Then load your pit file and every other file you can in the fields. You need to find the original stock package (usually a .tar or .md5), then extract the .rfs and and .bins in their correct location. And click start. For some reason cdma devices seem harder to flash than GSM. If after it runs, it still doesnt work, reload all the files again except the pit, boot.bin, sbl.bin. I had the same mounting error flashing a verizon fascinate, and i battled with it for a solid day and a half. If you can get into download mode then you are golden.

Dont give up.

For some reason i dont think odin like CDMA. It always fails me everytime.

If you download a .tar.md5 file, just rename it .tar and extract the contents. You need to google and download a .tar archieve utility (there are tons of free ones).

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daffy4u:
I have a Sprint CDMA Tab and Odin worked for me. I've also Heimdall with success. It seems results may vary depending on what combination of stuff is on the Tab.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esimpson1:
Heimdall

I'm trying these now per your advice. They at least finish and I don't get the write errors when flashing using Heimdall. So far, the best that happens is I get to the Samsung Logo screen, and nothing -- no glowing blue, no startup sounds.

Interestingly enough, all of the Zypher stuff that was posted before (without modem, with Epic modem, etc) -- None of those ROMs had boot.bin or sbl.bin in them. So, it looks like all the DJ30 stuff I have can't really flash back to DJ30, correct?

If I repartitioned, wouldn't that stuff get blown away and need to be put back?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esimpson1:
All failed...

I was able to get Heimdall up and running and seemed to successfully complete with multiple ROMs (DJ30, EA24, and the Gingerbread ROM floating around.) None successfully boot the Tab, however. I get to the Samsung screen, no glowing blue...

I definitely did a number on this! hahah. Oh well. Live and learn, I suppose.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stephen92:
Hey guys, the sleep of death problem has been plaguing my phone for weeks now.

It has happened even when I flashed it back to stock rom (RUU). Even when I

-left the sd card and sim card in,

-took out the sd card and left the sim card in,

-took both the sd card and sim card out, leaving only the battery in.

to see if the problem lies with the sd card or sim card, the SOD still persists!

I have searched all over google and I just can't sim to find another unlucky guy who has the same situation as me.

I am really desperate for help, anyone please help!:(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fragargon:
hi mate,

there is no many answer to your thread.

could tell us what are your hardware... pvt - s-off/on rooted etc...

if you boot up your phone is it reacting???

give more details so peolple could may be give you some tips and try to wake up your phone.

could still boot into recovery???
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stephen92:
Okay it seems that you're right, I will post more details about my phone and I hope that will attract more replies.

Here is my phone's specs

Bravo PVT1 Ship S-ON

HBOOT- 0.80.0000

MICROP-031d

Touch Panel - SYNT0101

Radio - 4.06.00.02_2

Mar 29 2010, 21:43:33

I love my phone a lot, in the past I used to flash it with many roms and radios. Until one day when I flashed a Miui Rom , this sleep of death (SOD) started to occur. I also changed from a 2gb sd card to a 16gb one at around the same time.

So I have tried many different roms since then, but the SOD still lurks.

Now I have used RUU to put my phone back into the stock rom, where there is no root, s-off or anything.

I have formatted the sd card over and over again, rooted and unrooted the phone but the problem stills lurks.

I can use my phone sometimes but the SOD happens irregularly.

When the SOD happens, I would have to press the power button multiple times before the screen would come on. Sometimes it doesn't come on at all.

Sometimes when I pulled out the battery and placed it back to restart the phone, the screen will remain blank.

On the overall basis, I'm thinking that this is a hardware issue? What do you guys think?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stephen92:
Does no one have the solution? :(

Additional info: occasionally during rebooting, the screen remains blank too
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fragargon:
Hi, this iq very annoying issue. First related such behaviour. When happening sod, is the phone hotter? Did you run some tool to check yoir battery. I doubt this is hw phone relates since it boots and you was able to flash rru. But to be honest I don t have right idee except. Battery issue.

So when using our phones to call skype or receiving calls, do you get charged or not?
[Vibrant General] horseycraze:
Skype to skype is free.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
thanks, i just don't want to find out in the end that t-mobile is charging me for it.
[Vibrant General] horseycraze:
I don't see how they could unless you're using excessive data. That being said, I'm on o2 in the UK, so maybe it's different here. When I had an iPhone on AT&T in the US, it simply wouldn't let me make user to user calls over 3g. Add that the list of reasons I switched to android.

One major gripe about the skype app btw--and a reason NOT to pay for premium features--is that you can't send sms from user to phone number from the app. It's just not a feature for some reason (though it can be done on the iPhone for some reason).

Anyway, if T-mo were going to charge you, you'd receive a carrier warning prompt first in all likelihood.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
but tmobile don't charge if you use excessive data so no problem at all. Damn, I love Skype, free calls only problem is the android app is a mess.

[Android Themes] iamthebigcheeze:
Unfortunately, the theme engine can't theme certain system items, like the lockscreen and power-down menu. The USB Debugging notification is one of those things. I turned that notification off because it was bugging me, haha. You can turn it off in: settings > applications > development > uncheck USB debugging notify.

Making it transparent would take away from the metallic texture.
