[Streak 5 General] needspractice:
You have a stock Streak? I am on official build 3.18 with perf. fix and superuser update plus custom recovery mod Dr. version designed for Streak non beta. I wonder if has something to do with my sd card its a 32gb model.
[Streak 5 General] needspractice:
I also downloaded the .apk from another site and put it in my systems app directory in my phone without the sd card and still got the exact same error. It doesnt even take it a second to spit back that it cant install it. Its like its not even trying.
[Streak 5 General] needspractice:
Found Solution!

Found Game .apk online.

Copied it to phone via root explorer to /data/apps

Unmounted sd card and waited for 5 seconds [did not do this before]

Installed Game .apk by clicking on it in Root Explorer in /data/apps

Mounted sd card

BAM! Working!

I have no idea why this worked but it did!

I was looking for something new and tried out a few Sense ROMs. I really like the Sense widgets and their little touches like the calendar and menus. However I had a lot of problems with these ROMs so I decided to go another route. I've been using Launcher Pro plus for a while, but development has slowed.

I tried Go launcher yesterday and am really liking it. If you haven't tried it in a while, it's come a long way. It has nicer widgets than Launcher pro and most of the features that launcher pro has like to eliminating the text on icons, transition effects, etc.

Themes are a little slim, but switching them is easy. The only thing that seems to lag on my phone is the homescreen preview, other than that as smooth as launcher pro.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] GRZLA:
I'd highly suggest adw ex. It doesn't have widgets but its the most stable launcher I have ever used.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] tjamscad:
Have checked it out for a while, thanks
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] nfiniti9:
Oddly enough the only launcher I've had problems with is ADW. I purchased LP a year ago and have to say its been very solid.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] shuura:
I love Go Launcher. I've used ADW and Launcher Pro during my Eris days, but once I tried Go, I never went back.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nowak4G:
Go Launcher is running real nice for me. Turn up the fling speed in preferences to make it feel a little more snappy. It has some cool icon effects for the app drawer like cylinder and sphere.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] BSquaredB2:
n00b question.......does Go Launcher EX play nice with all Sense ROMs? I'd hate to jack-up my current setup to make it look prettier. Looking for a little info because Go Launcher Ex looks pretty sweet.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] RMarkwald:
The layout you have to Sense will stay intact when another launcher is installed. So if you uninstalled a launcher because you want to go back, everything will be there. You just won't be able to get Sense widgets.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Div033:
I keep trying Go from time to time, but I always end up uninstalling it. I find it highly annoying that I have to install every widget separately, but I understand this might be to make the base launcher lightweight.

I find it a bit laggy - and dont get me wrong, the screen transitions are like butter. However, there seems to be a delay from when I swipe to when the screen actually animates. I'm used to LP's instant reaction. Plus, I sometimes notice jerkiness with Go that I don't get with LP, but I'm just being picky. Finally I dislike the acceleration curve when swiping between screens. I feel it doesn't respond to how fast I'm swiping, at least when using a custom speed without elasticity (causes lag!).

Man I am picky about my launcher. Maybe I'm just spoiled! I did like Go's Widgets with the transparent theme though. Very well done.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] sp1408:
Hello there!

I'm a n00b at this, and I just managed to flash a custom kernel on my Optimus one. (I needed it for overclocking)

I was wondering, what the most stable Gingerbread ROM is, for the Optimus one right now? I heard the unofficial CM7 ROM is a bit unstable :P

Also, can anyone give me instructions on how to use the ROM? Can I use ROM Manager?

Or should I boot into the clockwork mod recovery and flash zips from there?

Thanks in advance!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
Go to this link:

http://www.megaupload.com/?f=XGKNWZQJ

look for CWM 3.1.0.0, flash it ( I didnt use Rom Manager)

than look for CM7, wipe dalvik/wipe everything, than flash that rom....it's not to bad of a rom
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ashishv:
1.All roms based on official 2.3.3 are stable,while cm7 roms have some minor bugs.

2.Rom manager is a tool to install clockworkmod recovery directly.

3.now u can flash zip from cwm.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sp1408:
Thanks a lot for the replies folks!

I'll try out the official 2.3.3 ROM now.

What about Megatron? I know it's froyo, but the performance is supposed to be top notch :P Is it stable enough?

And another n00b question, don't mind,

If I flash any of these ROMs, official 2.3.3 or CM7 or Megatron, do I retain root access?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ElGeorge:
Go to the link that Jrhodes85 gave you and download both ClockworkMod 3.1.0.0 and AmonRA 2.2.1a, since you'll need to switch from one to the other depending on the ROM that you want to flash. As a very general rule older ROMs (like Megatron or LOL) need AmonRA, whereas newer ROMs (most 2.2.2 and 2.3.x based ROMs) will need ClockWorkMod (still you have to check the specific ROM post as they usually specify which recovery you need). Remember that these recoveries are ZIP-flashable, meaning that you can switch from one to the other simply by flashing from recovery (that is, you can be using Clockworkmod and flash AmonRA using the flash zip option and once you reboot into recovery you'll have your new recovery and viceversa).

I've tried most of the ROMs around here (except the 2.3's) and for me the most stable/better battery life is definitely LOL 1.4.2, still the best way to know is test them yourself (as every user is different).

Regarding the "root access" question if you flash any of the unofficial 2.3.x you'll keep root access, the only way that I think you'll lose root access is if you flash an official LG ROM. Keep in mind that that process is different since you won't be using a custom recovery but a tool called KDZ. I would advice to go that way only when you feel pretty comfortable flashing unofficial ROMs back and forth.

The other thing to keep in mind is that for ROMs "based" on the official 2.3.3 code there's an additional step that involves flashing a new "baseband" (this doesnt applies if you just want to flash any of the unofficial 2.3.4 ROMs like Andy's or Mik's CM7). The baseband flashing involves additional tools to the custom recovery so proceed with caution.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sp1408:
So if I flash any kind of stock Gingerbread ROM, I'll have to do the baseband?

(Is there and "unofficial stock Gingerbread ROM", without bugs? I wouldn't know :P )

So if I use kdz and flash an official Gingerbread ROM, I'll lose recovery and root right?

Can I use ROM Manager to get the CM7 mod or Megatron or the stock GB? Or should I flash from cwm?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
See below. Other than that, all of this has been answered about zillion times.

http://goo.gl/HJ2Gw
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sp1408:
But what about ROM Manager? Can I use it to flash CM7 or Megatron?

And I have cwm installed. I've done a backup with it. Is this enough? how is it different from a Nandroid backup?

Also, is it necessary to partition my sd card for the same? Or can I move apps to it later on, by some other means?

(Pardon me, this is the first ROM I'm flashing :P )
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mihir287:
Please read the dictionary and faq. Your questions have been answered previously. But, you don't need rom manager if you already have cwm. You also don't need to partition your sd card if you don't want to use a2sd/data2sd.

You will also need titanium for apps backup. There are other apps for contacts and messages backup.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] FnH84:
All of them are somewhat unstable, or buggy, but so is the official stock firmware :P I say CM7 6.5.5.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BlackOtaku:
Would it be possible to patch a USB mass storage option back into Honeycomb? The new MTP method doesn't work right now for Ubuntu users and has been a pain for some Mac users.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BlackOtaku:
Ahh that's good. Just hoping that someone was working on it. :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Entropy512:
It isn't possible without a massive rearchitecture. The Tab has a single internal memory store formatted as ext4, so it can't be easily exported as USBMS for two reasons:

1) The filesystem is only easily readable by Linux boxes (USB mass storage exports the raw disk partition, not files)

2) Since it's one unified filesystem, it's difficult if not possible to unmount the filesystem so it can be accessed by a remote host

I believe Pershoot's solution uses adb push/pull to emulate mass storage. FYI Windows people can look at Droid Explorer, which, as I understand it, uses adb to browse the device filesystem.

The Windows solution linked above is just integration of an MTP client into the Windows Explorer shell - it isn't USB mass storage.

Edit: FYI, any platform that has ADB support (Linux, Windows, fairly certain MacOS) can send/receive files to/from our device using ADB push/pull. This is how I've been loading media into my device so far, although it could get annoying/slow for lots of small files like a music collection.

Hey whats up guys, I have a Galaxy Tab on the way from sprint.

It's my first actual official Android Device (Had a T-Mo MDA, Sprint Mogul, TP1, and TP2). I have a Touch pro 2 that I was able to put Froyo 2.2 on... But that device became too tedious and I felt it was way behind compared to most Android Devices.

So I have a couple of days between now and when I receive it.

I was doing some browsing on the capabilities but I'm 100% sure I haven't seen all of what can be done.

So I figured that everyone can chime in as to what capabilities this thing has, and other members can be informed of what their device is capable of that they didn't even know.

Rooted, and Unrooted.

I think this can help everyone being that it's all condensed in this thread.

Thanks guys

I was, at first, a Tablet hater. Not sure what possessed me to get the Tab, I think I wanted to see what the hype was about.

I honestly, don't use my laptop much anymore. It's become such an effort to turn it on, and browse the web, when my tab is near instant. 3G is a must. Its what's made it so useful. Its just a fantastic device. Games are amazing on the 7" screen, browsing is a delight (I use Dolphin HD) and its just so portable. It'll fit into some jean pockets and most back pockets of any trousers.

I would buy a 2nd version of a Tab instantly.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] throwback1718:

We all know a lot of the main features that come on a stock tab.

But I'd like to know what you guys can do on a rooted device

[Epic 4G General] diacetylmorphine:
Was updating using Odin when, as my luck always proves out, a circuit breaker tripped and cut power to my PC. The phone seemed to be frozen on the "Download Mode" screen (30+ minutes of zero activity) so I pulled the battery. Upon reinserting the battery I discover that the phone is 100% unresponsive. I've tried every trick google could produce for me with the exception of the "homemade jig" method as it seemed fairly clear that the phone needed some semblance of life for that to be effective.

So, my question is... WTF??? I've soft modded wiis, hard modded xboxes, hacked PSPs flashed hundreds of phones and generally revel in futzing around in this manner of endeavor and have NEVER bricked a device (even after some incredibly stupid mistakes). This just doesn't make sense and I haven't seen sysmptoms such as mine presented in any of my web searches. Any ideas???
[Epic 4G General] ecooce:
I'm not saying your not a modder, but you should know to have a UPS hooked up to your dev box, for me its a laptop, so...

Anyway, try removing the battery for 1m, press power button with batt removed, now start up Odin, plug the phone in (batt removed still) and see if the phone connects. I'm sure someone will pop in here and provide links to several threads that describe different methods to help you fix this, I would but I'm sorta busy...

I bricked mine the same way a few weeks ago and tried every trick in the book over the course of 2 days. It was truly bricked. I don't have insurance; however, my phone was under warranty. Since I couldn't get the phone to boot or anything I figured there was no real way of telling what went wrong. I sent it in for warranty repair and 10 days later, the phone returned in working order. Work order says they replaced the main board. I marked the phone before returning it so I know its the same phone and it works fine now.

And before anyone says anything, I know, I'm an evil bastard. But I figure it's payback for a samsung flatscreen that died 6 months out of warranty.

it doesn't..

to prove this (or dis-prove it).. go into clockwork and make a nandroid backup (you know, just in case)...then boot normally and while you're looking at your home screen, jam a paper clip in there as hard as you can. Your device will do nothing.

Thanks goes to #TeamWin for Temp Root

This is For Windows only, if you wish to make it work for linux or mac help your self...

Remember, This is still a Temp Root & any Changes made will be Rest back to stock on a Reboot

It's stable & works 100%

I Personally have not lost Root with this new Method

Q. I thought RW was Fixed?

A. Caused by Deleting an apk / file that was already deleted. Journaling shows it still there!

Keep Track of what you delete, as trying to delete something off system that you alread di hangs the /system into RO state.

Before Using!!​

HTC Sync Must be Turned OFF

Put the Phone into Charge Mode only ( Not Disk Drive )

USB Debugging Must be Turned on

What's Fixed:

Revamped due to new Method:

~ Superuser Apps now Function

~ :) If you Lose Root, all you have to do is Open terminal & type SU then type fixit! > No More Rebooting & running the exploit again for R/W on system to get Root back in place :)

~ Fixed R/O Bug!!

~ R/W is now Forced

~ /system is fully editable now! until reboot that is.

~ Busybox is installed to /vendor/bin

~ hex Edited libext4

~ hex edited libfuse.so

~~ This is the Last Update due to it working & Stable ~~

Q. Is this permanent?

A. no, it's a temp root method..

Q. Will I lose SU Access at some point while running the OS?

A. You might, but open terminal & type fixit to get root back!.

Q. What about apps that need a reboot to use superuser?

A. Use Fast Reboot form the market for app that need a reboot..

Q. Can I push & remove items to system & will it work?

A. Yes, but all changes are reset on a reboot.​

Once Downloaded, Unzip & double click on the Run_ME_fre3vo_Root.bat File & Enjoy long lasting Root!

OLD NEWS:

Everyone knows that currently with any temp root, you still lose links to the SU Binary & Busybox links, it's just a matter of time before it happens!!

So after digging around somewhat I found an over sight that HTC might use later for system updates via /vendor/bin, who knows at this point though... Anyways, after amount of time the SU Binary along with busybox links if be in system/bin or /system/xbin gets deleted / removed..

Now, what I did was enable the $Path to /vendor/bin which is in the Sensation export PATH..

Any Calls made from this point either be SU or Busybox don't get deleted nor touched from any App requesting the SU Binary!! I've tested this with alot of apps & the Root sticks in place..

Other than Reboot, it might as well be a Perma-Temp-Root!!
