[Xperia Play General] Muckylogun:
Ive rooted/unlocked phones (HD2, Omnia) before so I didn't do anything like that to this phone (free games only). Seemed pointless to unlock/root the phone me, the memory is so lacking regardless of what I can uninstall with a rooted phone, its not even worth it, the phone is great by itself.

With SEUS everything worked, and downloaded... It said I already had the most update, and asked if I wanted to reinstall... and I did twice. But I still get the same issue... crashing on boot. I know with SEUS it says it may take a long time to boot up, so i charged it fully, then I left it running and nothing. Im going to send Sony Ericsson a nasty email and see where that gets me. If i took the battery out when I turned it off instead of powering off properly I would think I bricked it, but I think its just one of the flaws on this phone.
[Xperia Play General] Muckylogun:
Luckily they actually sent me a brand new phone, and my saved games for my emulators are still there. Thx for your help.

FYI: The stock screen cover is complete garbage, guess I'll be dishing out another $20 for an invisible shield.
[Android Themes] Raadius:
Ive been have trouble for days trying to get my custom docks to load in my theme, but it returns and error whenever I try. Even users I let try out the theme have reported that custom docks return an error. Can anybody please help me? I've followed EVERYTHING the readme file has describes. Here are pics:

I have put 3 custom docks (first red circle) in the res/drawable-hdpi folder with the proper .png name attach as the readme states (second red circle).

Than the readme states to edit the dock_pack.xml file and add the <item> tags without the .png (red circle).

After I install my theme, and go to Theme Preferences, and go to main dock and choose custom > aeolus hd my docks show up

But no matter which dock I choose, it always returns an erorr and does not attach to my theme,

Can someone, experinced ADW Theme makers PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS?! Im close to just saying **** this :mad:
[Android Themes] Raadius:
Wow, not a soul lol
[Android Themes] docsparks:
I got this. Hold on.
[Android Themes] docsparks:
Like I mentioned in our PM.

The providers.

look at your Manifest,

<provider android:name="YOURACTIVITYNAME" android:authorities="YOURACTIVITYNAME.Provider" />

You rocking one of those? If not, that is your problem

If you are, Make sure the YOURACITIVYNAME.Provider is there, because if you JUST have the .Provider, it will not function correctly.. and selecting and image will give you nothing.

if you have that right, and are still having problems, respond some moreeee
[Android Themes] Raadius:
Dude, you're a ****in genius. My provider name had my activity but not the authorities, I put it in, and all my docks showed up.

Again, thank you for the help, what is your email so I can buy you a beer ;)
[Android Themes] docsparks:
Just glad I could help. Hit my Thanks button! Ill be stoked.

Gotta build a rep somehow.

If your still super stoked, buy a keyboard? its like donating .70 cents :)

[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
i have the nexus S for like 3 or 4 monthjs now. i noticed that if i hide for example the notification bar on top. a slight burn in on the screen appears for like 2 seconds then it dissapears.

i wonder. will it get any worse ? what are my options here ?

if i put a live wallpaper, will it go still effect the screen?

honestly this is the only screen after like 5 nexus that doesnt have grid pattern, doesnt have dead pixels. doesnt have pink or yellow ugly colors.
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
What model you got?
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
super amoled ? first version of nexus S that came back in Dec
[Nexus S General] deeren:
Are you sure it is screenburn? How is it even possible cause the status bar is black.
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
what else would it be ? if i hide the status bar. i can see marks of the clock and the line " where the statusbar is available " for like 2 seconds before it dissapear.
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
I think you might be seeing some lag on your screen and just think you see a burn effect. Samoled can not get burned in.

Also, when pulling down the notification over things like android keyboard it shows through a little. It as if it was a screen burn effect.
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
If its there for 2 seconds and then it disappears then its definitely not a screen burn effect. It would have been permanent.

How are you hiding the status bar?
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
yes. it disapears. ... what could it be then ? and no its not permenant. i didnt notice anything with the keyboard tho.

is this normal ? or do i have a dud of screen ?
[Nexus S General] deeren:
burn in has to be permanent. if it is just for 2 seconds, it might be the pixels readjusting to return back to normal.... i can't think of anything else.
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
and this is a defect ?
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
You know, it is possible that its your own eye getting the burn. I mean if you have the screen brightness all the way up and switch that part of the screen to all black your eyes will get that burn effect and slowly fade out. Get a camera and record it. Watch the video and if its not in video then I'm correct in assuming its your eyes.
[Nexus S General] detusueno:
The time will burn in.
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
The brightness is not even in the.middle. lower
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
I think it is normal. For example I can see the status bar when XDA app is loading, throught the brown/orange full screen splash.

But that is not burn in, or it would always be there, like someone already said.
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
Well. What do u call that?
[Nexus S General] detusueno:
Non burn in burn in.
[Nexus S General] simms22:
i have slight burn-in in my status bar too, super amoled. its only noticable slightly in the dark on a completely white scree. honestly, its no issue at all. it will happen with time. it was more noticable on my nexus one.
[Nexus S General] acesofbelkan:
This is not true. At bestbuy they have a nexus s on display. You can see a slighty faded android with an exclamation symbol burned into the screen. It becomes VERY noticable when youre viewing a webpage since its all white.

My hypothesis is that the samoled pixel colors all age differently. since the status bar pixels are almost never lit up, they would show a slightly different color. But thats just an hypothesis. Its not a fact.
[Nexus S General] deeren:
haha!!! at last we find a flaw in your super super nexus s :p:p

anyway, on topic, i had it too on the n1 but that was comprehensible as froyo had a whitish statusbar. this one is black ( pixels are not being lit up). i can imagine burn in with the clock or some of the green icons but the statusbar itself ??:confused:
[Nexus S General] simms22:
nothing is absolutely perfect :p

i notice it only when im statusbarless(i get rid of the status bar in CM settings).
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
I don't think so. None of the LCD /LED screens suffer from screen burn. This is typical to a plasma or CRT but not LCD.
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
OK so it turns out there is some risk and possibility. Here us the link to the article :

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shooterjosh:
is rooting it going to be like my evo once i rooted it it got slower
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
No. And if your evo got slower you didn't use the right rom or did something wrong.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pierre1321:
I followed the rooting guide for my Evo 4g and my got kinda slow, but I had it for a year so not sure if that was battery issue. Either way that's why I got an NS4G cause of the lag. Seems to be perty fast, but that depends on yer rom and whatnot . now
[Captivate General] viveksharma2108:
Hi

I have installed CM-7 build 40 on my captivate. I would like to remove it, and install other ROMs like cognition, serendipity from clockwork recovery mod. But when i try to do that it does not work and goes into boot loop. I have tired both onclick Odin and other Odin solution (in which u manually select files), none them are working. They halt at "set partitions" or at other steps. I have tried master clear, at times it works and at times it too just halt. The times when it works, the phone remains as it is boot loop.

I would also completely format my phone, something nothing stored on it, but just a working ROM.

Thanks a lot in advance.
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
What are you doing exactly? Putting the phone into download mode, and flashing it with odin one-click JF6 should do the trick just fine. After the one-click completes, just flash cwm recovery and flash away...

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Somyab:
Guys as i m a indian user..cant wait for official 2.3 for my country..so i am thinking to flash 2.3 2day or 2moro..

So my question is the worth it??

Is it better den devoid froyo?

As i have heard that all the new roms will be based upon this new baseband.plz suggest me..and as using lg mdp is also a risk factor..Thanks
[Optimus One, P500, V General] lekhwani:
Just wait till monday! . Mik is coming with a new release today or tomorrow. It's going to reveal some very good things. Also Mik will hopefully release two patches to resolve baseband issues in a few days. That will nullify the need to flash baseband if users don't want to flash baseband.

If you can't wait this much, flash official gb via kdz or lgmdp while following the instructions carefully.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Somyab:
Thanks for info..and one more thing..does after flashing this baseband nd gb rom by cyber avjit..the 2g/3g is working fne?..I m thinking to wait for mik's ver

Woo. Nice question!! Cyber Avijit is Indian User and every thing is working for him then it should also work for you.

but guys i wanna ask dat..is flashing 20g worth it????
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
Kindly check my howto for a list of compatible ROMs before flashing it. You are asking the other way round. :p
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Somyab:
I checked ur topic before posting this..i mean is the official roms better then roms like devoid froyo?

If it is..then only i think i shud upgrade to 2.3 official.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] naturist:
Upgrade to official GB, and once Mik release the patch, update to Cm7. Enjoy both roms and both roms are worth to try.

Hope this helps.

Hi. Beautiful stuff ;-).

I've installed the theme, comm manager & keyboard on my Touch Pro2 - perfect.

The Droid Sans font complements this theme very well.

Only the numbers show correctly.

Well ....

You have to join the contacts manually....... press and hold on a desired contact until a menu pops up then hit join contact.... then it will show you all your contacts..... now pick the contact you want to merge with the one you picked first..... do this until you have one contact for each person that previously have multiples from different accounts.....

I am probably late to the game but didn't see this anywhere so thought I would just mention - I just flashed this Gingerbread based ROM real quick http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1092565 and then flashed the APK mentioned here http://www.xda-developers.com/android/skype-2-available-for-other-devices/ and made a quick test call from my netbook to my Streak - It wasn't perfect (could be due to slow network connection and not doing a clean install of the new ROM) but anyway, it did work.

So I just did a quick video call to my parents and confirmed that it works very well - I was also able to switch from the front camera to the back camera.

[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] Krad:
do you need gingerbread for this to work?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] chrisrotolo:
yes, I believe so you need gingerbread for this.

hopefully they will eventually release an app for those of us with devices still stuck on official 2.2
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] johnpmorton:
Fring is a cool app but I am not sure if they have a desktop version - I have only used it once on a friend's phone. Frankly I have been using Oovoo for some time now to call my parents and it has worked great, but I have MANY more contacts who use Skype and didn't feel like spending the time or energy to try and get them all to switch.

Yes - for sure you need Gingerbread - I took a stab at installing it on Streakdroid 1.9 but it was a no go. As soon as I installed the above ROM and then installed the APK it worked.

As a side note the above ROM seems to be working great - I had been planning to install DJ Steve's Gingerbread ROM but will have to wait until I have some time.

i did on steves gingerbread....dont work. force close. :(
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] rsalib:
What would happen if I just change my build.prop to read version 2.3.3?

Are there other areas of the phone that confirm gingerbread?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] johnpmorton:
My guess is it would force close - just changing the version doesn't actually make it Gingerbread so there would be compatibility issues. I will check later since I am going to be playing around with another Streak tonight.

Yep - force close.
[HTC EVO 3D] CyDrive:
Hello, I have searched the forums and have been unable to find an answer to my question either here or through Google.

I am trying to figure out whether or not the HTC Evo 3D has the capability to use the Android Open Accessory that was supposed to be added in 2.3.4. Though, even though the phone supports may contain the libraries, the hardware itself may not support it. If some one could help me determine whether or not the phone is capable of connecting to an Arduino board it would help a lot. This is the one feature that I absolutely need to know it has before I purchase it.

Thank you for your time and I apologize if this has already been answered and I was unable to find it.
[HTC EVO 3D] markgolly:
Android Arduino Board

The hardware can do it, but since the 3D is android v2.3.3, I don't think the libraries are there yet. Once HTC provides an update to v2.3.4 (or we gain perm root for custom roms), you should be "good to go".

Just FYI - the Arduino board acts as a USB Host since Android phones are normally USB devices. That and the software are all that is needed to talk to the board....
[HTC EVO 3D] CyDrive:
Thank you very much for your help.

I do not know why the USB Host bit slipped my mind. After all the board I am using is called Oleg's USB Host Shield. lol

I hope I didn't miss this on the Forums search. I spent some serious time trying to find this one.

I am a tech savvy Android "closet tech" trying to help out a friend. She has a Samsung Moment and I have done a ton of Forum searches, internet/Google searching in an attempt to help her, to no avail.

Somehow a picture of her now deceased grandma was saved as a background image on her Moment, but now she/we are unable to locate it on her internal memory, or microsd card. We are completely unable to retrieve it at this point.

I am familiar with rooting phones and somewhat new to the Android file structure, so I don't know if this will work.

The bottom line: With a rooted Samsung Moment, is there any way to locate this protected image and copy it off the phone to her computer? Also, is anyone familiar enough with Samsung Moments, or would be willing to give me some pointers on where in the file structure I might find the background image we're looking for? I don't mind digging for it, if I can find the right area to search.
