[G Tablet Android Development] Gary_O:
I've also asked that question in the past, and the rule-of-thumb when upgrading from a previous version of Flashback is as follows:

- Start the gTablet in ClockWorkMod Recovery

- Select "Wipe Cache partition"

- Then select Advanced, and select "Wipe Dalvik Cache"

- Then from main menu, select "Install zip from sdcard"

- Do Not reboot after applying the upgrade

- Select "Wipe Cache partition"

- Now you can reboot and enjoy the updated Flashback ROM!

That worked from me when going from Flashback 4.3 to 5.4. All of my previously installed apps and homepage icons remained intact. Hope that works for you too!
[G Tablet Android Development] raphenucleus:
The sd card icons in the status bar are normal and so is the gallery FCing at boot. Tlbardelljr fixed the sd card icons in the status bar in alpha 5.3, so that only the external one would show up when it was inserted, but doing so might have messed some other things up in the ROM, so I think that's why he reverted it. Personally, I'd prefer if those icons weren't in the status bar (or only showed up briefly when inserting or ejecting the external one), but it's not a big deal. As for the gallery FCing at boot, I think the gallery works fine after it does this, so it's more of a minor annoyance than a real problem.
[G Tablet Android Development] gogorman:
Thanks for the reply.

I figured it wasn't just me. Just wanting to check. Those little SD card icons are a little annoying, but oh well.

Regarding the Gallery, I actually removed the default gallery and use QikPic instead, so now no more FC's.

The one things that DOES drive me crazy however, is the Thumb Keyboard problem where the keyboard does not display correctly after reboot. Even after removing the default keyboard.
[G Tablet Android Development] nelomen:
I flashed right over the last version then illuminate and never did wipe and everything has workes out fime for me although I did backup each rom just in case.
[G Tablet Android Development] tlbardelljr:
I did not modify the apk. It is the work of Zebwin (vegacomb)
[G Tablet Android Development] tlbardelljr:
Yes the icons are supposed to be there.

What version are you on? I got force closes of the gallery in 5.3 but not 5.4
[G Tablet Android Development] codf4ther:
I also get the force close on gallery on boot with 5.4. Gallery works fine after that. I did a clean install, double wipe of data/cache/dalvik prior to install.
[G Tablet Android Development] defacto:
What do you mean 'then illuminate' ? I'm on 5.2 and am wondering the same thing.. can i just flash it.. and not Wipe?
[G Tablet Android Development] nunjabusiness:
This is exactly what I have been doing since BoS 2.4 and I have never had any issues with anything to speak of.

I add to that list:

Let it sit for 5-10 minutes after 1st boot then check favorite apps and reinstall/move to tablet as needed then another reboot for good measure.

Then when satisfied that everything works - Nandroid backup.

On a side note: My gallery FCs are gone completely - can't remember the last one.
[G Tablet Android Development] xmr405o:
ummm i knew that. i was just testing your integrity. jk . you passed.:)

so this is the only one then with working flash apps. tThat modified apk doesnt look like it would work with any other rom port. i know it didnt with BoS unless i did it wrong.
[G Tablet Android Development] nelomen:
Sorry, I have been going back and forth between Iluminate rom and flashback without any wipe of anything, finally got stuck in bootloop when going to CM7 tonight but now am back to Iluminate from a backup in CWM and am currently downloading latest flashback to try out again.
[G Tablet Android Development] popezaphod:
Great ROM!

I nuked my GTab back to Stock w/CWM in order to get BL1.2 on it. Unfortunately, I had to reformat my SDcard to get Stock to boot, but I didn't have anything critical stored on it. I booted Stock, copied the Update.zip via USB from my PC and flashed the ROM. The only issue I had was not being able to connect to my GMail account on first boot; I rebooted it and was able to add my account.

So far I've thrown some basic communication apps on it - FriendCaster, Google+, IMO - and they're all working fine. Installed the Swype beta and it's working fine as well.

What are my chances of getting Netflix working on this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wanderer000:
Can someone please tell me what files I need to copy back onto my Captivate to get the stock Messaging app on my phone? I have a backup copy but want to make sure I copy all of them.
[Galaxy S II General] greyhulk:
I use the native e-mail app on my GS2 for Gmail (and other accounts) mainly because I have always had issues sending large attachments through the native gmail app and I like that remote images come in automatically without always having to allow it.

I'm sure many of you have discovered that you get absolutely no word prediction in the e-mail app because the attachment bar covers it up. I have tried numerous keyboards with the same effect, aside from the Samsung keyboard, which I dislike. Today, I discovered that the Nuance FlexT9 keyboard works with word prediction, but there are a couple of oddities. If you leave auto correction on, it underlines everything. If you turn off word prediction, there is no underlining, but word prediction on the swype part of the keyboard is next to worthless.

Obviously, it's not an ideal solution, but it kind of works. I wish we could get these bugs ironed out. I really like the samsung e-mail app otherwise. It syncs changes back to the server immediately, which is something you don't see on other android phones.
[Galaxy S II General] padlad:
The latest Smart Keyboard pro works with the Samsung email client, maybe give that a try?
[Galaxy S II General] greyhulk:
Thanks, dude! I'll check it out!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Rumur:
Check your updates. It is out now, I just updated.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] vj092887:
Your right. Thanks. I wonder how we play the games though?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmniNut:
HOw do you even get OnLive? Market download or what? Didn't come pre-installed on the tablet so.. don't really know where the app/service even is >.>
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] vj092887:
Go to settings, about tablet and software updates. Then hit check now and It should be there
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmniNut:
Ahh right, cool! Thanks. I was just wondering though, I've never used OnLive so I guess my question is..what's it's functionality with the HTC Flyer? If you have an OnLive account on your desktop and purchased games, can they be played on the Flyer?

Edit: Just loaded up OnLive. Looks cool, but why is the resolution so far off? Thing's are abit blurry. Not sure if I'm the only one with that but is there a way to fix that?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] adamm_44:
It's OnLive view only. You can't play games yet. You can only watch other people play. I guess its a sneak peak as to whats to come. Not sure why they did view only though.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ovigt71:
no any updates here so far.....is only for WIFI or for 3G models as well?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] vj092887:
Not sure. Mines is a WiFi model from bestbuy though
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmniNut:
Yup, got my update for best buy wifi model
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] carloritoll:
I didn't get any update, maybe it is an update reserved to american people...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] YOSEFE:
It must be for the USA. I have also checked, it aint there.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cainhunpi:
Onlive is a US service. can someone extract the apk please? I want to port it to more tablets

[Xperia Play Android Development] starbearer:
Hi All,

Im gonna keep it simple.

**I'll start with the story of what exactly happened to my Xperia play so that who so ever has bricked their play unfortuantely by the same way can relate.

I unlocked bootloader, rooted my fone, deleted the useless sony crap and unrooted.....Then did a update over the edge connection thru fone only, it downloaded a software and started installing it, the fone switched off but never came back.

So i tried installing the UK generic formware almost 4-5 times, not realising that its gone now(bricked).

Gave the phone a try with diff patches made thru the uk firmware, no luck.

Sent the play to Sony ppl, it came back after 2 weeks.....unrepaired....i still dont know what all they tried..????

So all the good work done by ppl here came to my rescue, installed the loader.sin and preset.ta from Blagus, fone came on, but yes the issue with sim was still there.

e

I saw a funny thing tho even without the sim, the phone on the status bar showed full signals but no sim was there..i laughed on it for a minute...

then....came back home, just did a factory reset after 30 mins after making the fone come back to life.

I will confirm the after method to unbrick radio very soon, i have messaged some of the radio bricked owners here(pm), waiting for them to /reply/try something depending on their fone's status, I just hope it works and when it does il make it official here.

**started this thread here, so if not now we can still try something to get it worked***
[Xperia Play Android Development] mrassol:
If you need tester I'm on and if you fix my phone I'll donate to you !

I've also try ervery possiblities, for now .... but the only one working is fastgsm method ...
[Xperia Play Android Development] starbearer:
Thankx for support, but i aint working here for donation, just trying to help, by the tweak that i found...

if all fails, im trying to lay hands on a sony tool that will work for sure, something on platform like fastgsm using credits, il share that with you all, so everyone can benefit...

**edit** I did not relock the bootloader until i got the radio working...

I can post a video of my phone..."working"....
[Xperia Play Android Development] superojo:
Very willing to be ur tester as well. Just let me know wat to do.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Xonarial:
I'll love to support you too. :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] starbearer:
Thanks to everyone who have been patient and tried all the methods i suggested, but it is strange howcome my fone get back to life while others cant.

Im gonna share some custom packages(to maybe 1-2 guys, i dont want others to fall into trouble by bricking their fone again) that i applied on bricked play before sending it to Sony Service centre which even they cudnt figure out and return the phone unrepaired, now i did the same on play what i suggested most of you on PM's and got my fone back..

here's what my device now shows.

I haven't given up, so i will keep trying as u all are....:cool:
[Xperia Play Android Development] Ireas:
Bricked my phone today while flashing different system images~ now it cant connect to the o2 network here~

would ya share your method?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bin4ry:
flashing differnt system images doesnt brake your radio permanent. Just flash a FULL rom and you should be good again.

Regards
[Xperia Play Android Development] badblood_antony:
where is the rom...

m facing the same issue...network bars full with out the sim...no damn roms available...
[Xperia Play Android Development] crispyduckling:
hey guys

any new for us poor guys with plays but with broken radios?
[Xperia Play Android Development] thenotdone:
Steps for unbricking:

step 1: brick phone via unlocked bootloader and root then OTA update.

step 2: phone won't boot (black screen) put phone into recovery (hold back button, plug in USB, see green light)

step 3: flash blagus' relock bootloader script

step 4: flash generic UK firmware (not sure if it has to be this one, pretty sure it can be anything)

step 5: boot phone and setup... everything is working now.

Not sure if this was common knowledge, but its how I got my phone fixed.
[Xperia Play Android Development] lofike:
Is the UK firmware generic to the point where if I were to root a Xplay bought from HongKong and root it with the UK firmware, everything will still work?
[Xperia Play Android Development] thenotdone:
The generic firmware should work for R800i and R800a models.
[Xperia Play Android Development] crispyduckling:
is this steps for unbricking phone or for getting the radio back after unbricking phone via the old radio breaking way

cuz my phone isnt bricked, all functions work execpt calls txts and internet

altho wireless works
[Xperia Play Android Development] thenotdone:
unbrick and gain radio function. My phone was totally pooched and this brought it back to life... my situation may have been different, but this is how I resolved my problem (as described in my first post)
[Xperia Play Android Development] crispyduckling:
well thats cool if that does the trick for u

but i THINK my prob is different

i was once stuck with a bricked phone but then there was a way to get the phone to boot up but without radio function eg making fone calls

and i have been stuck in this state for over 2 months now and so have a few other people,

i think your situation may be different because your phone was just bricked and didnt have the radio function broken via the quick fix method.

things are abit different now and if i would of bricked my fone now there are ways to unbrick it with out breaking the radio.

unless someone has tried this method and it has worked? (who has broken radio like me)
[Xperia Play Android Development] thenotdone:
Oooh ok, yes the circumstances are very different. Mine was a total writeoff and I didn't quick fix it.

If I ever get into that position and work it out, I'll report back.
[Xperia Play Android Development] crispyduckling:
ok thnx

and thnx for sharing your method im sure it will help others

in the mean time im keeping my fingers crossed that either

1 blagus cracks the radio issue or

2 the online unlocking comes back online after 2 months bieng offline
[Xperia Play Android Development] crispyduckling:
had an email today off gsm

saying that afew more xperias are availible for unlocking

hopefully ours wont be far behind now
[Xperia Play Android Development] Abaddon:

[Xperia Play Android Development] soudara:
use fatgsm service

use fatgsm service for flash generic firmware fatgsm can repair your phone
[Xperia Play Android Development] Waqas:
ok.. i did all that but i used the first fix that bricked the radio.. so got a working ps one + Ipod but not a phone....

Blagus,Wazz etc all say use a payserver to unlock ur phone and it should work but fastgsm is no longer offering unlock services for XP

omnius recently (atleast when i last checked) offers these services for XP

Backup TA

Flash

Identify

Restore TA

Unlock network lock by certificate replacement

anyone have any idea if this will work...

Problem is, me in africa so kinda scared of using cards for payment as i've lost a fair bit on credit card theft once and kinda paranoid about it now.

anyone willing to give it a try and post back, we would really appreciate it
[Xperia Play Android Development] crispyduckling:
you should ask the user alejandrissimo

as they was kind enough to fix mine for me after 2 months of having a bricked play

when i say bricked it was radio bricked

Has anyone themed the Swype keyboard since the 3.0 Beta was released?

I am running Phoenix 8.0 and love my current ROM, but lost my Swype theming when I installed the latest Beta.

I remember replacing the Swype.apk and the Swypelibcore.so files last time I lost my theming (Phoenix 7.0), but I don't know if I can just just pull those out of the 8.0 version of the ROM, put them in the system folder and have it work given the new way Swype has laid the 'word suggestion' feature out this time. :confused:

Does anyone know of a solution?

Thanks!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jerkysh:
i can make you a themed swype

what colours do you want it to be?

this is my gingerbread themed swype (green and gray)

http://goo.gl/sPgKM
[Captivate Themes and Apps] irishvandal:
I am currently under the 3.0 Beta as well. Is it possible to have the stock 3.0 colors reversed? Like the light blue would be the main theme with the clean gray being the highlight? I am running PaulDiddyRemix1.5 theme with a lot of blue hinted apps as well. Over all theme being Blue-LiteBlue with Gray and Carbon accenting it. I am not looking to mod anything in the Swype3.0 Beta other than colors. I have already gone thru the learning curve and fly once again, lol.

PM me if needed. I will keep an eye out. Thank you.

_EDIT_ I am currently under [ Serendipity7 Build2 ROM ][ Serendipity7 v4.1 Kernel ][ PaulDiddyRemix1.5 Theme ][ PaulDiddyRemix TW3 Launcher ][ Official Swype 3.0Beta ] Not sure if any other information would be relavent, what i posted would prob be overkill. Again, I look forward to hearing more about a themed Swype 3.0Beta.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jerkysh:
i'll try smth

so, you want a light blue keyboard with gray glow and letters?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] irishvandal:
Something like that. I will try and attach a few sample piks of the theme i am going for -

It is a Transparent Black/Blue Theme. Not sure how much help this will be. maybe a dark carbon/white gloss keyboard and a LightBlue/MidnightBlue glow and letters. If you could do a Transparent Smoke Gray(like in the notification Bar pik) Keyboard with LightBlue/MidnightBlue Glow and letters, that would be more on point. But honestly, I dont know how it wil look till it gets wrapped together. lol.

Your call, let me know. BTW, tnx for the reply.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jerkysh:
http://goo.gl/uWsEh

that's what passed my mind, looks neat :)

and i think you don't mind that it's English/Russian , i could make it german too

but this is the swype i had in my phone when theming it
[Captivate Themes and Apps] davmeister:
looks good :)

I am looking for something all black, with white letters, a green swype line, green accents, and a green glow (as the Phoenix 8.0 ROM is themed green, I wanted to try and stay with a similar color scheme).

The screen on the far right is similar to the colors I have now.

Thanks :)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jerkysh:
it's all black , green accents and green glow, and white letters

i think it's pretty good

and yea, i think i should do a Swype Theming thread :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] d_gritza:
Can you do one exactly like this but without the little boxes around the letters (essentially all black) :D

and can I manually remove the russian from the bottom of some of those letters?

Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

I'm currently not home, and I can't edit this on my phone, so I'll try later(maybe monday or tuesday) to edit it!

Did you see the themed Swype in the PaulDiddy Remix theme in the i9000 forums? You could extract it from the theme and make it flashable for CWM.

^^^^^^^^^^

I did, but the background is to bright and cannot be changed. at least i havent found the setting for it, if it even has a setting.

but the main thing i am going for is 3.6Beta friendly. Not looking to revert back to older swype.

btw, just got my phone completely installed, now will this work with the official swype 3.6beta? it is called swype 3.0beta but the version is 3.6.something, lol. if so, than i would just delete the swype.apk itself and paste this version in/clear cache/dalvik, reboot, recovery, fix permission.

sorry, long weekend, just when i had my Cappy completely set-up APEX7.2 came out and Talon released updated stable versions. lol. so i am blind now. lol.

tnx for all the hard work.

Jerkysh should respond as they are his files, but I believe you load to your SD card, tap on the file and it should install for you.

I've made a few themes of my own and you could find them in MattedBlues for Apex and Continuum and some other themes soon to be released by the folks porting them.
