Is anyone else having a problem with the 4.8 beta Zune not syncing files.

My phone (7661 atm)is recognized and connected, but when I try to add songs etc. nothing happens ( a sync group is created, but it never actually syncs)

Well since this release in mainly aimed to test developer app this may be normal behavior^^ so is anyone else experiencing this?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cj_133:
Certainly not normal behavior, have you tried reinstalling the Zune software?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PanNet:
I have similar problem. The newest Zune program after connected HD7 starting and telling me that I need update and trying to do it. After while I have information that I have the newest software and do not need any updates. The conclusion is that I can sync nothing. Drivers installed properly but Zune do not recognize it.

Has someone similar problem?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fillip:
I am having this problem too I am hoping it is related to Zune being down at the mo rather than due to the dev mango trial update
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PanNet:
I do not belive that only a few persons have this problem. Anyway I egree this is a Zune software problem.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killerb255:
Yep...same problem here.

...and I thought it was Mango breaking the USB functionality on the LG Quantum, whether in QC COMPOSITE or MS COMPOSITE mode through the MFG app...

EDIT: Never mind: Zune v4.8 beta client needs to be installed...manually.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmattp:
I'm using the Zune beta software and syncing works fine for me. It's quite fast too.

Wireless sync works perfectly as well. Sometimes it disconnects after a period of inactivity. It's as if WiFi is going to sleep after a while.

Oh well, c'est la beta... :)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jessiethe3rd:
It would be helpful to understand where does one actually download the Zune 4.8 Beta software??

I found it...

Zune 4.8 Beta.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruben302:
try restarting your phone while its connected with your pc through usb, did the trick for me on NoDo, not sure about Mango but it's worth trying!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheRaggyGandalf:
Well today it finally decided to sync. <insert deity or null> knows why.

Since I went the official way I already have Zune 4.8 so seems to be a beta issue with the beta Zune/beta Mango kombo

[Galaxy S II General] kar111:
The latest version according to KIES for my O2U firmware Galaxy S2 is KE2...

Why have they not done a KF2!? :(

I know i can flash via odin but like i think i need to debrand my phone first.

i am also already rooted btw. any help on how to get the latest version without debranding my phone?
[Galaxy S II General] kar111:
Anyone? :/
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Why should they KE2 is the latest release O2 have decided to release .You going to have to ask O2 why .

Dont know why you are bothered about debranding as rooting has voided your warranty anyway .

O2 branded as it says on the tin latest KE2 .

You want later firmware then it removes branding is stock not O2 firmware .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] AvRS:
I was on the stock O2 ROM until recently the same as you and decided I've had enough waiting so installed a custom ROM, Smaberg's Touch X-Treme which is perfect. Forget staying on the O2 ROM and flash away, if you have to, just put a stock ROM on and change your CSC code then you can keep up to date with Kies. Easiest way would be Chainfire's root and CWM if you haven't already got it and install a custom ROM via zip which avoids using ODIN all the time.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jejogo:
I have had a lot of people ask me how to remove a gmail account from android without doing a reset on it, so i decided to post up the instructions here:

Needed:

Root

Root Explorer

(according to my theory it may work without root but i came up with a root method so this is how im doing it)(if someone is successful w/o root please post if it worked)

Instructions:

Make sure your phone is rooted (don't ask me how there are plenty of guides for all phones)

Download Root Explorer (or another explorer that can delete file system files)(adao is my personal choice it may work for this if does not require root)

Navigate to /data/system (seems this directory is already r/w because it write your gmail to here, hence why i think root may not be required)

Erase the file named accounts.db (This may also erase e-mail accounts, etc.)

Reboot device

Now there should be no gmail account (verify in settings->accounts&sync)

Add/Create your new gmail and done!

Please thank if you found this useful!

This guide is pretty simple i came up with it because i flash phones to Cricket and erasing the gmail on an optimus s is easier than dealing with f*****g Sprint ID.

Side Note: I'm not sure if i am allowed to post up root explorer apk if i am allowed would a moderator let me know so i can post it here. thanks.

doesnt change my google acc..

is there any way other tha this?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] markusrow:
Thanks for this!!

Quick question. Do you think there is a similar method to make Google Market re-generate its device signature. I cloned two nooks from mine (Nandroid backup and restore) one for my wife and one for my father. On the Market website, I only see one nook device. I have spoken at length to Google Market support. The general consensus is that cloning is the root (sorry!) of the problem. Google seem to be using a device signature, which is only generated at first startup.

Any thoughts Thanks.

my buddy was on his girlfriends plan. they split up, she reported his phone lost/stolen. its a Verizon HTC Thunderbolt 4G whatever.

is there anything i can do with this phone now, or is it basically worthless?

also, i believe he intends to turn her in for reporting it stolen when she clearly knew it was not lol

[Thunderbolt General] crazyhtown:
If he isn't on the account at all he has zero options. As far as reporting her there is no recourse. Other than not paying the suspend fee of $15 she didn't do anything wrong.

It's a WiFi device at this point, or try to sell it to an idiot on Craigslist.
[Thunderbolt General] allchannels99:
I am in Atlanta. A phone like that would easily sell for $200 on Craigslist advertised with "Bad ESN". For $60 including the first month's bill and activation it could be flashed to Metro PCS.
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
Buy GrooVe IP on the market and get a Google voice number. Give everyone your Google voice phone number. Keep wifi on wherever you go. As long as you have wifi, you have a phone.

Is it perfect? No. But at least you will have a phone. Then when you get a new phone, have Google voice forward the calls to your new number so that you don't miss anything.

Hi, I'm just wondering if I could be able to pick up my Vibrant from the UPS store on Saturday. It says one more business day left but the delivery is on July 5th which is my vacation day. The shipping method is also UPS 2nd Day Air®. Is it possible to pick up my Vibrant from a nearby UPS store on Saturday?
[Vibrant General] jnutz:
I suggest you call UPS and ask them.
[Vibrant General] XPLANE9:
Can't hurt to call support and ask. Some UPS deliveries may start at a UPS station rather than the store but that may vary between locations.
[Vibrant General] imitebewrong:
Also. Usually UPS locations don't have the packages sorted until the day of delivery. So in some situations they will tell you the package is mixed in with thousands and you cannot pick it up.

Call the 1800 number before you waste your time going to a ups location.

[XPERIA X8 General] Chris95X8:
Maybe the update hasn't arrived yet in your country. There are many others who are still running 1.6 in their X8s.

You can root and install latest stock firmware which you can download from the X8 android development section, but why stay in 2.1 when can go to 2.2 or 2.3 ?

Skype almost worked

I downloaded and installed Skype awhile ago and was able to create an account but then it said it was unable to connect me to the network :(

Dunno why it wouldn't connect to my wi-fi network ... but it was exciting for a few minutes when it looked like it was going to work. After creating an account it went into connecting mode and until the error message popped up about not being able to connect it looked like it was going to work. :(

So close ... it almost made it. Perhaps it would work for someone on Verizon.

I think what's obvious is that the skype video is basically a hack and not like google talk video since its so phone specific
[Xoom General] edengberg:
Be aware that Skype is based upon a distributed network. This means that when you are connected to Skype your computer is part of their network and can/will be used to connect other users together without asking your permission.

Quite possibly phones and tablets are less than ideal mechanisms to be integral parts of their sharing network.

I have uninstalled Skype from my computers to prevent this indiscriminate use.
[Xoom General] JanetPanic:
Not quite accurate. Skype has a distributed network of supernodes, true. It is also true that supernodes are regular skype clients (much as bit torrent and other p2p networks are). It is not true that all clients are supernodes. Only clients on public addresses not behind a proxy are eligible as supernodes. Android clients are not eligible (skype does not have root privileges and can not open a port on 80 and 443), nor are clients behind a NAT.

Feel free to not use the service, but do not do so based on a misunderstanding out how skype works.

EDIT: explained in greater detail why android in specific can not act as a supernode. (Discounting the fact that supernodes are chosen based on cpu power and bandwidth, making its selection unlikely even if it were possible.)
