i dont really feel like messing with customs for my wife's phone. if it was mine i'd do it but she isnt too tech savy and custom roms are never super stable. i tried finding the firmware using ild method involving copy and pasting all the numbers into lg url's and stuff but that doesn't seam to work anymore.

Hi, am wondering if Sensation can support USB devices via usb-microusb adapter.

Thanks!

Nope.

May be possible when the bootloader is unlocked and custom ROMs come.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dee_Loc:
Hi everybody! I`ve problem with my u8300; I can`t do factory reset and boot in rocovery mode. Ok, it started like this: week ago I tried add an widget to my desktop. I held my finger on screen and then from list I chosed "add widget", then pop-up window told me about problem with home app and only way to stop it is "force colse". So I thought "maybe factory reset will help" and I went to setings and chosed factory reset. Phone has shut down and started boot but stuck on Huawei logo. Then I ejected battery and put in again. Next way was "recovery boot" from ROM Manager v4.3.2.3 (before that I installed some google apps from rom update>free>google apps>the newest one) and same thing like before. Next try was recovery from 3 keys (vol up+green button+power button) and same old sh*t. Every my reboot has stuck on Huawei logo. Guys! Please, help me! What should I do?

I`m runing on Android 2.1 (stock ROM). Phone is from Polish network "Play". I had other ROM on this phone; Adrenaline 2.3.2 (from this forum) but camera won't work so I have to back to stock ROM.

Sorry for my english...

rememer to copy the dload stock rom (the ideal is your own native stock rom, ie i am on italian wind and i have to use the it wind rom, not the portoguese one) into ur sdcard before doing the 3 button reset
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dee_Loc:
That means I have to copy /system folder and past it on SD card?

EDIT: downloading now stock rom, I have hope it will work. Thank you :)
[HTC Sensation] Kupfel:
sounds like a nice how-to. Except, I don't see why anyone would put a screen protector on Gorilla Glas :D
[HTC Sensation] getrdy:
The only thing that messes me up is the curved edge. :(
[HTC Sensation] The_Biz:
For an extra feel of relief and gorilla glass still gets hairline scratches. :)

Take your time and use the screen protectors from HTC.
[HTC Sensation] jayvo:
I might try this if my Skinomi screen protector ends up being a waste of life.
[HTC Sensation] digiholic:
Because Gorilla Glass gets F'd up also. My gravel driveway proved this to me on my last Gorilla Glass device.

-Edit-

I also do my screen protectors in the bathroom like the OP. Both for the dust and for availability to water. I've washed them after getting annoying dust particles stuck on previous attempts. Works well.
[HTC Sensation] scotcruz:
I have bought the original htc screen protectors and it never sticks at the bevel edges.. I have tried both by heating up with hair dryer and without but it doesnt help

please advise guys... I want to protect it again scratches..

cheers
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
Soak it in hot water for a couple of minutes. It's what I did with the HTC protectors. I use PhantomSkinz now.
[HTC Sensation] nextonline:
I hate cases and really didn't think I needed a screen protector but I was wrong. My screen has several small scratches. First one resulted from me leaving the phone on the bed when I went to sleep, I don't know how, but it got scratched. At first I thought it was a hair stuck behind the sglass, but later I saw that it was a scratch. Scond one resulted in me carrying it in the pocket, my keys scratched it again.

So yeah, u still need screen protector with gorilla glass...
[HTC Sensation] Gavros7:
I used water to fit them and they are ok.
[HTC Sensation] xtcislove:
You guy do something wrong :P my desire never have one scratch and the gorilla glas thing here will never have one :P Protect your phone :P

I am using an simple bugatti bag for my phone and it never got scratched....

Most scratches come from your pocket while there are other things in it !
[HTC Sensation] Baasi:
i also think that i dont need a screen protector, cause im using a soft bag for it. but nevertheless, i want to buy one, save is save, scratches are a big NOGO :)

i cant believe that the screen protector on the pictures is an original htc one. How is the feeling with it and how is the display now, how do you see the colours and sharpness?

Hi folks,

This is the port of the sexy keyboard the Xperia x10i users used to use in 1.6

thanks to realunited123 for the efforts making it work on 2.1

thanks to pvyParts for telling that the libiwinn.so is necessary for this but is missing from 2.2+

go ahead and press the thanks button for them ;)

Original thread

DOWNLOAD and flash with ANY recovery as you wish _ Edify scripting (MTD update-binary and updater-script)

There you will find a version that supposed to work on ARMv6. Please test it if possible! Thanks!

Your actual libiwnn will be backed up to /system/lib/libiwnn.so.bak when you flash THAT zip (because the ARMv7 one works that zip won't backup your lib. If you want to keep the old file, then do a backup)

Looks like the ARMv6 lib is not functional. If you can provide me another one, that would be great!

The lib for ARMv6 is fine. However, the keyboard doesn't work, so

logcats would be appreciated

. Thank you!

MD5 of ARMv6 libiwinn.so:

e634eb6dbf632cb477869cedece2d002

See attached images for yourself

First thing to do is to find the cause of the FCs on ARMv6 devices. After that further modifications will be made.

So don't forget guys, logcats from ARMv6 users needed!

Thank you!

PS: I made this post completely with that keyboard ^.^
[Android Apps and Games] Adolf1994:
No responses so far? No fear people, it won't hurt your device.

Try it and write anything about it.

If you get FC anywhere, then please report it.

If you are using a phone with ARMv6, then send the needed logcats, please.

But really, write here ANYTHING what comes in your mind and you think it's feasible.
[Android Apps and Games] Adolf1994:
OK, now that everyone is talking about what's happening with the Xperia X10, you should help me out. I'm on holiday now, but I'll be at home in like 7 days.

I think I found something that gives some insight... It's not for the Desire Z but I think you could do something similar.

Read this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1146531

There is a Linux command "dd" which will copy something bit for bit, so in theory you could copy each partition of your phone to your sdcard, and when you want to restore you'd have to copy each partition back over. The dd command can be dangerous however, if you accidentally write the wrong data to a partition, you could easily brick your phone... You'd also probably need root, and the dd command would have to be on your phone, which I have in CM7, so it's in busybox, if not already on your phone.

You'll have to do some more searching for which partition is for what but this should work! There's another command to see what is mounted where are such, I'm just installing ADB on my new computer and will try to get some more useful information once it's good to go...

Edit: the "dd" command reads and writes bytes, not bits. Thanks riahc3!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riahc3:
AFAIK (I also saw this) it is impossible.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riahc3:
This is the only "way".

I say that between " " because as slopes commented, dd reads bytes (not bits) of data from one source and writes it to a destination (or the same source can be its destination although somewhat pointless). This is NOT in any way the same as a copy and paste. Nothing to do with it

I do advice to use extreme caution with this command and DO NOT play around with it if you are unsure what it does exactly.
[Atrix 4G General] ssmr2t:
Hey Guys, I updated and rooted my phone to 2.3.4 HK...

Anyways, I remember seeing a post about an app that lets you enable the whole screen.

It appears that I have some dead space on the main home screen and I can not place any widgets in it (Its in the bottom)...

Any way I can fix that ? I cant remember the app name for the life of me.

thank you,

[Atrix 4G General] jojojohnson7410:
Hey, just use root explorer or shell in order to edit the build.prop in your system folder (or just use CWM and mount your /system folder to your computer). in the build.prop, there is a section that describes the ppi and for some reason, it's set as default to 240. Change it to 275 and it should fix all screen issues.
[Atrix 4G General] ssmr2t:
thanks for your response!! I checked thru Root Explorer, and only found

dpi... not PPI.. is that what you meant? Cause I see that listed as 240.

Also, do I need to reset after the edit?

Thanks a lot!!

The stock launcher seems to be messed up, get a different launcher.

Well it depends.

I use Full Screen Caller ID which is just an application that makes the pictures full screen - lets you set video, etc.

There's a free version in the market and its inexpensive to upgrade it.

Whitepages with caller ID.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RZJZA80:
I tried out call control and uninstalled it a minute after....just like mr. number, the numbers I tried to look up just say unknown caller. My main focus is to lookup numbers not in my contacts and block calls...an actually caller ID of incoming calls would be great too....I check out the white pages and see how that works

btw mr. number supposedly turns on its caller if feature without paying if you agree that it can anonymously get your contact info for caller id things, I didn't go for that and uninstalled

We fired an employee yesterday, and when he returned his phone we discovered that it is pattern-locked. I need to get around the lock to see if he has any important company data stored on his phone...

Is there any way to do this on the Shift?
[EVO Shift 4G General] DWake014:
Factory wipe would get rid of anything on his phone, try sliding the keyboard open to wake the phone, I know sometimes that got around the pattern lock back on my moment, never used the pattern lock on this phone, sorry.
[EVO Shift 4G General] MrTrip:
Well first off, any important data would be stored on the SD card.

Doing a factory wipe would wipe what is on the phone, not the SD card. Nothing would really be on the phone though unless you want to dig around in his text messages.
[EVO Shift 4G General] ovalprocess:
Actually, I DO want to dig around in his text messages. I work for an IT consulting firm, and I need to know if he was communicating to clients via text.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Stuke00:
You might have to contact Sprint for a record of those. I don't know of any way to get around the pattern lock.
[EVO Shift 4G General] x99percent:
If he enabled USB debugging, you will be able to get at a lot of stuff with adb... including the text message database.
[EVO Shift 4G General] riggsandroid:
Just call the guy you fired and ask him for the password. Sounds to me like the simple and adult solution. Who cares if his feeling are hurt or it will be awkward, its like turning in the office keys when you leave.

[EVO Shift 4G General] cosine83:
Actually, judging how many combinations you can do with the pattern lock, it would take a quite while to figure out the right combination since there's literally thousands of doable combinations that have to be done manually (afaik) not automated by a script. It isn't ironic at all. Why waste the time? I wouldn't want to bang my head against a wall when the solution is a simple phone call away. And I've been doing IT as long as you have.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
I wasn't talking about the validity of the question at all. It's a great question.. since nobody seems to know the answer I would just suggest taking out the battery and seeing if you can boot into recovery and mounting it via USB if USB debugging is enabled and/or messing with ADB on the phone..

Also, why is this company giving their employees Android phones and not Blackberries? Blackberries can be controlled via BES. Maybe it's just a husband trying to hack his wife's phone? ;)
[EVO Shift 4G General] cosine83:
My last job was using Droid Incredibles. Android phones can be controlled via Exchange ActiveSync security policies. I personally did it at my last job to **** with this guy that was an annoying asshole. Made it so he had to enter his AD password whenever he wanted to unlock his phone and I'd data wipe his phone weekly. He'd ask me about it and I'd tell him it's security policy. I had him convinced that everyone was having the same thing done when they weren't.

[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
You don't think the whole story is fishy? The way I see it, he has two obvious options:

1. Call the employee. Ask for the pattern.

2. If he refuses, call the cops.

The fact that he is not doing either of these indicates that he does not have a legitimate reason for wanting the info.

Like several people have said if usb debugging is on then use adb. Though you might need root to access what you need.

1. ADB into the phone.

2. Pull the databases in /data.

3. ???

4. Profit

If not you might need to root your "company phone" to get the data. Fortunately you don't need to fully root. A custom recovery will give you access to the whole phone.

1. Flash engineering spl

2. Flash custom recovery

3. Boot into recovery

4. Mount data partition

5. adb pull /data .

6. ????

7. Profit
