[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazybusinessman:
so my old g2 took a dip in the pool...and i could not revive it. put it in rice, it worked but wouldnt vibrate/speaker was trashed. got a refurbished insurance replacement and now am trying to root it again.

ive tried visionary and it would not work. r14 to be exact. i put it on, it says its running and then goes to a black screen and will do nothing. un-installed, rebooted, tried again....still no luck. ive tried this a few times with no success. i also tried doing the "gfree-rage" one and im not sure if im doing it wrong but it will not work.

Android Version: 2.3.3

Baseband version: 12.52.60.25U_26.08.04.30_M3

Kernal: 2.6.35.10-gb351c35

htc-kernal@and18-2 #1

Build #: 2.13.531.8 CL56018 release-keys

anyone out there with a brand new G2 that can give me some advice or help me out? cant downgrade OTA's since i cant get temp root.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSpam:
Unfortunately, the 2.3.3 release can't be rooted yet. There's a big thread in the General forum if you need more details.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazybusinessman:
well i will have to check out that thread. unfortunately i was leaning towards that since i was doing everything right according to directions etc. thanks for the input even if it was bad news for me :(

When it is rootable don't use visionary unless you want to risk bricking your phone
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AZ2ENVY:
Visionary isnt that bad . Ive done 7 G2s without any problems . Theres always

a risk bricking a device though regardless of what way you do it .
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsteven77x:
Risk is a 100 times higher with visionary. Why bother when there are better ways.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickyiswhite:
I know I kept messing up using visionary and it never bricked my phone

Sorry if this has been answered before...

On my NC with CM7 n107 running from SD using verygreen's method I can't make the google calendars sync nor work.

Under my account the Calendar Sync option doesn't show up.

Any way to fix this?

Thank you!
[Nook Color General] capidamonte:
I had this problem on emmc version. Had to install gapps manually to fix it.

Aloha,

Thanks but I did install gaaps manually.

Other ideas?

[Galaxy S II General] Epic-Emodude:
Hi,

I have been looking at upgrading my phone that came with KE7 to a newer firmware, however I am confused about the multiple KFx releases due to their release dates being mixed up.

What is the best firmware at the moment coming from KE7 (I really want to improve the battery life).

Also, can I just flash the PDA bit to get the update and not the phone or CSC parts to get the android update without the other bits, and keep my apps and data?

Thanx

Aaron
[Galaxy S II General] __NBH__:
If you want to improve battery life then you have to go for KF2. All the other firmwares used around 20-25% battery on my journey to work but now it only uses 10%. Also the battery usage list displays the correct processes, no wifi process when its off etc.
[Galaxy S II General] Hollow.Droid:
If preferred = newest build then KF2 is what you're looking for. I haven't seen amazing improvements in battery life but the de-charge seems to be much more consistent and is less prone to erratic drops when compared to other builds.
[Galaxy S II General] Epic-Emodude:
Thanks,

Does anyone know about picking and choosing the parts I want to flash so I dont lose any data or do I have to flash all 3 bits?

Aaron
[Galaxy S II General] bluebirds:
I flashed all 3 and didn't lose my data. Just picked KF2 with the same CSC I currently had.

Just to be 100% sure do a backup with CWM then if you do lose any thing you can restore just the data after flashing KF2 :D
[Galaxy S II General] leoking3:
Hi guys. How do you flash KF2 and keep the package european with all languages? What do you use? Odin? And how? What do you choose? Thank.you
[Galaxy S II General] bluebirds:
Use Odin but keep the same CSC.
[Galaxy S II General] leoking3:
Yes I imagine that, but all I flashed untill now consisted of one .tar file. That is y I asked what do I choose and how.
[Galaxy S II General] Epic-Emodude:
Just to check then, this just means flashing the Phone and PDA bits but not the CSC? Out of interest, what is the CSC bit?
[Galaxy S II General] bluebirds:
I flashed all 3 files. This would be the same if you used one .tar file.

PDA refers to the build version of the firmware

Phone refers to the baseband/modem version

CSC is the consumer software customisation and is specific to geographical region and carriers. It contains the software packages specific to that region, carrier branding and also APN settings for data connection, MMS etc for your service provider.

.PIT refers to the partition information table you only need it if you screw up your partition table or if the firmware specifically requires it because of a change in the partition table layout. It's very likely you may never have to use this.

If the package only contains one .tar archive then it will have everything, pda+phone+csc, in the one file.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
[Galaxy S II General] bluebirds:
The .tar file is 3 files packaged as one. It includes CSC, Phone, and PDA.

If you use Odin you can select the indivdual 3 files or a mixture of different firmwares and it will give your the same result as the .tar file

hello

i've installed the whatsapp on my sensation

but in the setup stage where it asks me to insert my phone number

after i do that it tries to connect and fails

error : unable to connect. please try again later

this app worked on my previous android phone

can anyone help ?
[HTC Sensation] daillcyruz:
Haven't ran into this issue with my reinstall . It did not however send my phone the text I hit send and it acted like it was sending but went past it saying it was verified and let me in the program.
[HTC Sensation] Master-D:
anyone else ?
[HTC Sensation] Kupfel:
No problems with whatsapp whatsoever. Been using it a LOT.
[HTC Sensation] kazprotos:
Only problem with Whatsapp for me is that most contact photos do not show, despite being 'linked'. May try to reinstall if I get annoyed enough.
[HTC Sensation] tibere86:
No issues here. I rely on it heavily. Runs just as flawlessly as it did on my iPhone.
[HTC Sensation] mpjohns3:
I would suggest just trying it from a different location... Sometimes getting in range of a new tower fixes little data issues like that for me. Or try it on Wifi. Or if you were on Wifi, try it on data network... I think you get the idea :cool:

Only issue I have with Whatsapp is sometimes it like refuses to refresh whether the contact is online or not and shows them as "Last seen......" and won't push texts through when I know for a fact the person is online. Annoying, as I will send a text expecting it to go through only to look at my phone half an hour later wondering why the person hasn't texted back only to discover a single check by my message :mad:
[HTC Sensation] htchd282:
try syncing facebook for htc sense instead of just facebook.

that sorted my problem and now I have all pics from the contacts showing
[HTC Sensation] Abhijithz:
Not being able to use WhatsApp is no fun, so if you are having trouble connecting, keep reading. To start, there are many reasons why you may not be able to connect to WhatsApp, so we have listed a few of the most common reasons.

The most common reason why you cannot connect to WhatsApp is because your phone is not connected to the internet.

To ensure you have a working internet connection, check the following:

You have a data plan on your carrier's network or a Wi-Fi connection with internet access.

Make sure the signal strength for Wi-Fi or data network is good and that the phone is connected to the network.

Open a webpage in your phone browser to see if it loads. If it loads, your phone is connected to the internet!

Reboot your phone.

If you cannot connect to the internet through your Wi-Fi network, try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network or connecting over your phone's data network.

If you can open webpages and run other applications that connect to the internet on your phone, but WhatsApp will still not connect, try deleting and reinstalling WhatsApp. Learn how to reinstall WhatsApp on: Android | BlackBerry | iPhone | Nokia

If you can connect to other applications on your data network, but not WhatsApp, it could be that your mobile provider has configured your wireless access points to block certain chat applications.

Try this if WhatsApp still will not work on data only:

Contact your mobile provider and ask them about different access point settings to run chat apps.

They will guide you through a process in which you will manually configure your data network and web settings.

-------------------------------

Thats what I did and it worked, also try the last step of changing your access point !

Finally!!!!
[HTC Sensation] npnpatidar:
Check your access point ie APN

I was facing same issues when I checked access point it was different from what I normally use. I changed it and it works fine now

[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
guys quick question my kids like to watch movies and tv shows on netflix sometimes, so if i switch on my wifi that doesnt use data from my plan rite? or does it still use the data just not as much? cuz i know a couple of shows and a movie is atleast a couple gigs....and im not trying to get throttled down so is wifi the way ???
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sstang2006:
no, with wifi ON it will not use data. You can also use the free wifi calling at home and it won't count against your minutes.

Today I got throttled for going over the 5GB :( . but the funny thing is that I did it on purpose to see if they will actually throttle my account or not. well they did lol 2 more days until next billing cycle.. It sucks, the fastest I'm getting is 53kbps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
ty brotha and same billing cycle as u! lol so wifi on and im good?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sstang2006:
Yep.......
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
i hit thanx button ty bro
[T-Mobile LG G2x] solrac.dc:
As far as WiFi that you are stating is it WiFi picking up from an access point or USING your portable Wifi hotspot??

If you are using your Wii, PS3, etc. and using your phone as a WiFi, it will use your data and it will eat it quick.

I used my phone as a WiFi to coneect to my Wii and two Netflix in....I was throttled!!!!

Hope this makes sense?? :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
lol that does suck. good thinking doing it near the end of your billing cycle.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
just seconding sstang2006 that you're good if you're connected to wifi. it won't use your mobile data.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rvdangel630:
Wifi calling does count against your minutes....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
not no more it doesnt tmobile changed it, and i mean if i turn wifi on (like using my houses wifi), like check the little box........... then use netflix
[T-Mobile LG G2x] solrac.dc:
Then YES you would be fine as it will not use your data. ;)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borikua954:
I been running Simply Honey 3.8 with no problems at all and everything works great. I have only one issue its the blurry MMS. I remember this from 2.2 which i still have the zip file i flashed, but wanted to get feedback b4 i flash cause SH is 2.3 not sure if that zip file will mess anything up since it was for 2.2 software. Any help will be appreciated.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazy25000:
DO NOT just flash anything, if you don't know what you're doing, it will either lead to frustration or a terrible brick.....in general, do not just flash files thinking it will go smooth because that is not the case.

Go to settings, about, what is your modem version? Also, have you messed with your network, sms, or call settings?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borikua954:
Kb5 and have not touched any setting in the phone, besides flashing the rom...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
Its not gonna werk. Any flashable .zips from 2.2 generally will result in bootloops for breakfast if you try to flash them while running 2.3. Thats just IMHO, only one real way to find out though. Good luck!:)

*EDIT*

You could always try to push the Mms.apk alone if no one else seems to be experiencing it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazy25000:
For some people since 2.2, open your sms app, go to settings and change the User Agent....some used Nokia or whichever one, but this worked really well when it worked for an individual.....try that and if it doesn't then we can find a modified sms app for you to use.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borikua954:
@Kawika no im def not tryin to find out im pretty sure its not gona work but i did try a mms apk from another 2.3 rom n no good also @crazy25000 i tried chomp & handcent sms n still retained the problem i just went into setting in the sms app n i do not see the user agent you are reffering to.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
I would try to push the one from the original ROM. If no one else is experiencing the problem u r then its most likely just a bad DL or bad flash. Good luck!:)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borikua954:
Yea im going to try to dl the rom right now n push the apk hopefully it works ill report back shortly....

Yea i have that mms fix but i used it on 2.2 the SH 3.8 is a 2.3 rom so dont think it would work....thanks for the effort....
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borikua954:
well got tired of the blurry mms i ended up flashing back to simply galaxy 2.8 final everything back to normal no blurry mms issue....
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] customyota:
I had the blurry mms problem, too. I tried a lot of things to fix it, what ended up working for me was installing handcent, then under handcent settings>application settings>default messaging applications select all(sms & mms). Then I froze the stock messaging app with titanium backup. No more blurry mms pics. :)

Just today I was checking my email when Sense force closed on me. After that, it force closed on me every few minutes or so. I cleared data and it just force closed on me again. Not sure why all of a sudden this started happening. I havent installed any apps since yesterday. This morning it wasnt doing it, just all of a sudden started doing it. Anyone else experiencing this? My next step would be to do a master reset but really dont feel like setting my phone up again since we dont have root and cant do titanium backups

I get it a lot too. Even with the 2nd phone. The first one was just Force close GALORE. The 2nd phone Force close a lot to. I hate it also tried a factory reset fine for about 24 hours them back to the same thing. Sense also loads way to often, :mad:

I recently switched to AOSP GBMod and have noticed something odd. When I'm using Google Voice and I select to call someone who has left a message who is not a contact of mine the call states "call lost" and doesn't go through. I believe that it's from the +1 added prior to the number that is causing this, because when I put the number in without the +1 the call goes through. Any ideas why this is? The same happens when I Google Voice Search a number a +1 is added to the number and the call doesn't go through, i.e. the number shows up as +1-920-933-5944. When I put 920-933-5944 the call goes through. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sure haven't:
Maybe it's cause I have the Quantum (small screen), but those are words that the most frequently not corrected when I'm typing lol.

Not a huge deal, more like a running joke I have with... myself. "fir" I can see (when trying to type "for"), but the otheres?

Di = should correct to Do

Ay = should correct to To

Gor = should correct to Got

But they don't. Ever. Maybe my phone has some Ork/Elven programmed into it?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoboDad:
There are a few strange non-corrections in the keyboard. Although from your examples, I would hope that Ay would correct to At, not To ;). But maybe that is part of your running joke :).

On the plus side, it is so easy to manually fix those kind of mistakes now, that it doesn't really bother me much.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sure haven't:
No no, it's when I'm typing, my finger slips and I type "di". Thinking it should auto-correct to "do"... but it never does *sigh*

[Nook Color General] JeramyEggs:
I just wanted to say how nice it is here in the Nook Color forums. Sometimes I wonder around other forums on xda, and I see so much hostility. I know this place used to be so cool. Before the wave of newbs. He'll, I am one of them. I just got my first android back in Jan. Now I am a full blown flashaholic. What I am getting at is, SORRY from all the newbs, all the stupid questions, and the shear size of the wave. And thanks, because of all the genius here, you caused the wave. Thanks to all of the authors, and cooks here in this forum. I have had very few problems, and when I did, people here were nice enough to help. The development here is awesome. Though the pool is smaller, I would rather have a nook than (insert device here).
[Nook Color General] dvdivx:
I don't have to pay a data plan for the nook. That alone would cool me off. Especially Verizon's new data plan.:mad:
[Nook Color General] JeramyEggs:
We are grandfathered in, just don't upgrade, and buy your phones outright. You will save money in the long run......
[Nook Color General] NCKevo:
I second that - thanks to these forums, the nook color I bought on Saturday is now running CM7, overclocked, and netflix. Unfortunately I'll probably ask for more :p
[Nook Color General] Jotokun:
I agree, the Nook Color section on XDA seems pleasant. I'm rather new to Android, having only owned my phone for a few months and my Nook for about half of one. I've been hanging out in the Atrix forums since thats what I own phone wise, and half the threads are complainers who hate their phones or dont fully understand the concept of donations asking why more isn't getting done. It gets tiring rather fast.

When I bought my nook, one of the big factors that made me decide on that tablet was seeing how peaceful by comparison the Nook community is.
[Nook Color General] slugbug2010:
I agree. Although I can't seem to find a thread "home". I have a rooted evo, have flashed several themes, mods, etc on that for nearly a year now. But I still feel like a newb here because the process is somewhat different. I've treid reading how to dual boot, TRIED to dual boot - nothing happened. Just happy I didn't screw the thing up with all the zip files on my sd card :) Tried to get netflix working....no go. People are very kind when I ask a question but I don't understand what language they are speaking in. I am used to "download, wipe cache, flash, boot". This adb, emmc, yadda yadda...I don't get yet.

BUT I do have a gorgeous NC that is really fast, very stable, and performs beautifully.
[Nook Color General] Devildadeo:
I also appreciate the atmosphere here. I knew nothing about android mods prior to owning my NC and now I've got it screaming fast and playing N64 games. This community has been super helpful though I've rarely sought out advise directly. I'm mostly a lurker. :rolleyes: Messing with my nook has given me the confidence to jack around with my Thunderbolt. The TBolt forums are super helpful, but there is certainly a lot more trash talking and whatnot going on there. Thanks to all of you Nook peeps out there for keeping this forum courteous as well as useful. :)
[Nook Color General] cymoze:
I'd like to say thanks too. Not trying to be a fan boy or a sycophant kiss-up, but I'm really amazed the amount of Android intelligence the people have on this forum.

I got my nook color for the cheap tablet possibilities and have learned a ton here, appreciating everyone's politeness and knowledge and efforts. I didn't realize how much I visited until I looked at my net filter's stats for this place - I've clicked in around 900 times at XDA!
