[Verizon Droid Charge] Bear55:
IMHO these forums should be named Samsung Droid Charge rather than Verizon Droid Charge. This would stay consistent with the naming scheme of the majority of fourms on xda . The carrier should be left out of it unless there are multiple carrier specific models of a device. Was there a reason to include the Verizon name?

Edit: sorry about asking if this is impossible...
[Verizon Droid Charge] lufc:
I take your point on this and will speak to the admin staff thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] Bear55:
Thank you. We also have a "Verizon" Droid Incredible 2. One way or another I feel that the forum labeling should follow a rule.
[Verizon Droid Charge] scarygood536:
what about adding the "look here first post" in the development page to general and themes categories? Noobies are more likely to look in general before development and it saves the time of re-directing them to the same page. Also, Change the name of the thread to add in "How-To's" so people know that they are even there.

[HTC Wildfire S] takthetank:
Does anyone know if there's a way to make a backup of the already installed ROM?

And what I mean is a full backup, with all the settings and programmes installed, like Clockwork Mod or NANDroid.

It seems that none of them is available yet for Wildfire S.

Maybe there's something similar?
[HTC Wildfire S] Hakim Rahman:
maybe Titanium Backup ~ https://market.android.com/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup
[HTC Wildfire S] takthetank:
Not a ROM Backup, it has nothing to do like the ones I mentioned.
[HTC Wildfire S] m3ritum:
it needs root access unfortunately :-(

[Android Software Development] parabola949:
I'm trying to write an app in which one of the options will be to boot into a custom recovery (i.e. one not installed)...

Right now, the app pulls the recovery files into a temp folder, then puts a script (named recovery) in /system/bin, then chmods it, then does a reboot recovery

Problem is - the script isn't run.

Here's the script (that doesn't run..)

#!/system/bin/sh +x
su
echo "su obtained" >> /system/tmp/recoverylog
echo "running" > /system/tmp/recoverylog
exec 1> /system/tmp/recov.log 2>&1
mount -o remount,rw rootfs /
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
echo "mounted" >> /system/tmp/recoverylog
cp /sbin/busybox /data/local/tmp/
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/busybox
/data/local/tmp/busybox rm -r /etc
/data/local/tmp/busybox mkdir -p /etc
/data/local/tmp/busybox rm -r /res/*
/data/local/tmp/busybox rm -r /sbin/*
/data/local/tmp/busybox cp -r /data/local/acsupdatertemp/assets/sbin/* /sbin/
/data/local/tmp/busybox cp -r /data/local/acsupdatertemp/assets/res/etc/* /etc/
/data/local/tmp/busybox cp -r /data/local/acsupdatertemp/assets/res/* /res/
/data/local/tmp/busybox ln -s /sbin/recovery /sbin/busybox
echo "copied new recovery" >> /system/tmp/recoverylog
/sbin/busybox --install -s /sbin/
ln -s /sbin/recovery /sbin/dump_image
ln -s /sbin/recovery /sbin/erase_image
ln -s /sbin/recovery /sbin/flash_image
ln -s /sbin/recovery /sbin/mkyaffs2image
ln -s /sbin/recovery /sbin/nandroid
ln -s /sbin/recovery /sbin/unyaffs
ln -s /sbin/recovery /sbin/volume
echo "finished with image" >> /system/tmp/recoverylog
chown root.root /sbin/
chmod 0755 /sbin/
echo COMPLETE > /cache/iscomplete
mount -o remount,ro rootfs /
mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/stl9 /system

echo "exiting" >> /system/tmp/recoverylog
recovery

and here's some of the code from the app:

private static void PushRecovery()
{
SetExtendedCommand("");
strlist.clear();
strlist.add("busybox mount -o rw, remount /system");
strlist.add("mkdir /data/local/acsupdatertemp");
strlist.add("unzip -o /data/app/*acs.updater* -d /data/local/acsupdatertemp");
try {
doCmds(strlist);

} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch blocku
e.printStackTrace();
Log.e("UPDATER", e.getMessage());
}

try {
Thread.sleep(5000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
suRun("cp -f /data/local/acsupdatertemp/assets/scripts/recovery /system/bin/recovery");
suRun("chmod 777 /system/bin/recovery");

//This didn't work... //AddExtendedCommand("run_program(\\\"/system/bin/recovery\\\");");
//AddExtendedCommand("run_program(\\\"/sbin/reboot\\\", \\\"recovery\\\");");

}

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HpX:
Hei everyone. I have been using Tapatalk for a while and are quite satisfied with the app. Then again I'm not so satisfied with the search function, in my opinion it should list what I search for and nothing more. I always get a lot of crap I have to scroll thru.

So my question are, how is searching in the Xda-Developer app? What forum app do ppl prefer?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zigzags:
I will buy either Tapatalk or XDA Pro. any suggestions on what I should choose

Tapatalk is universal to any forum.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
I bought the Tapatalk Pro app so I could have access to more than just XDA, like Android Central and my Snowboarding forum.

So there is no real difference between Xda app and Tapatalk. Except i can use Tapatalk on more forum's. I guess I'll stick to what I gott.

I am looking for the best prepaid carrier solution in New York for one week.

I have an unlocked Motorola Atrix and will be there in one week for holiday (I am from Germany).

I only want to use it for staying in contact with friends. Included data volume would be optional, lowest price has first priority.

What would you recommend?

Thanks in advance!

Use ti backup and freeze sync service ill post later how to adb and freeze the sync service
[Motorola Droid X2] LancerV:
Heres how to do it with your computer you need to be rooted

open up cmd and go to the folder with adb mine is located at C:\ADB

run the following

adb shell

su (Allow the super user response on your phone if you get one)

pm disable com.fusionone.android.sync.service

reboot
[Motorola Droid X2] devarshi:
Doesn't that stop all sync?
[Motorola Droid X2] Xyzodiac:
Yeah... I'm not doing that... but I think this narrows are little problem down to a common software glitch.

No
[Motorola Droid X2] LancerV:

[Motorola Droid X2] SuBDivisions:
Im waiting on more confirmation as to any ills of this before freezing it.. Who else has the balls to do it? :D
[Motorola Droid X2] cdeezstix:
Frozen

I froze mines, as so far I haven't had a repeat text in the last hour and no adverse effects as far as I can tell.
[Motorola Droid X2] Xyzodiac:
Well I'm going to do it too! Thanks for clarifying the exact purpose.
[Motorola Droid X2] SuBDivisions:
Ok im doin it.. Im gonna use bloat freezer.

[Motorola Droid X2] Cheapxj:
ditto, I've done the deodex and delete thing to almost all of motoblur. I'm using the vanilla 2.2 sms, contacts storage, and calendar however I think I gotta swap some framework files to make it all work properly

for now Dw dialer and contacts is filling in the gaps. yes I can save contacts

aside from calendar its still broken.
[Motorola Droid X2] dbutters:
Works for me, did it about a week ago and haven't seen any ill effect.
[Motorola Droid X2] mattpedigo:
Done... Will post in a few days if any adverse effects. Thanks!
[Motorola Droid X2] mxair2001:
This indeed works! I was getting tons of duplicate texts (worst was 14 of the same one) and just messing around with freezing stuff I decided to freeze the sync service as it is only used for the sync the contacts to VZ. I didn't need that since I have all mine backed up to gmail. Since freezing it I have yet to receive another duplicate.

-mxair2001
[Motorola Droid X2] SuBDivisions:
Turns out that it did not solve my issue.. I froze it and it was fine for about 2 days then i am getting 6-7x multiple texts again
[Motorola Droid X2] mattpedigo:
Same here... They don't seem to be AS BAD as they were before but just got 3 in a row.

So far, it seems to be helping but that may change in a few more days.
[Motorola Droid X2] murtezahu:
If you have USB debugging enabled, turn that off, and reboot. It worked for me. Haven't seen any duplicates in days.

Hope this helps.

Cheers.
[Motorola Droid X2] mattpedigo:
Did this, too with no effect. Should I retry to ADB after turning off USB debugging?

Or should we just wait for GB. :)
[Motorola Droid X2] murtezahu:
The last thing I can suggest is to use a 3rd party app. I have used Go SMS Pro. Its free, and works pretty well. Give that a go till we get gingerbread, or CM.
[Motorola Droid X2] SuBDivisions:
third party apps do not stop this from happening.. I tried them. It is something between the Phone, OS, and Verizon Servers. Right now there is no workaround, nor is there any true "Fix" but we all keep plugging along to find one...

No word if Gingerbread will fix this underlying issue because i have not heard one peep from big red on them acknowledging it.
[Motorola Droid X2] murtezahu:
I used to get multiple sms all the time. I started using go sms pro and turned of USB debugging at the same time. I also did the *228 thing. In the end, I haven't gotten a duplicate sms in awhile. Not sure which one of those things fixed it. Or maybe Verizon fixed it on their side... who know.
[Motorola Droid X2] murtezahu:
Actually the GB update thats right around the corner fixes this. Check the second page on this: support.vzw.com/pdf/system_update/droidx2.pdf

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cMoran137:
I've had this problem too, where it says my phone is plugged in (the 2 icons popup in my notification bar), but it won't charge.

What worked for me was;

1. Unplug your phone.

2. Turn your phone off.

3. Take out your battery.

4. Plug your phone in (with the battery out)

5. Now put the battery in.

If all goes well, you'll see the little loading symbol after a few seconds, followed by the charging screen. You can then turn your phone on, and it should be charging!

Good luck. :)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Br1cK'd:
You might have some debris or something in the usb/charging port on your phone. Even a piece of fuzz can cause misreadings. Try this:

-Take out your battery, and put it in the other room (other room is not necessary, but to illustrate my point, do not replace the battery until your sure its dry)

-Take an alchohol soaked pad, like for medical use, and use the corner of it to clean the usb/charging port on your phone. Be careful not to lose any of the pad inside that port. Also, dont use anything but alchohol to clean it. I remember one person a while ago who reported he cleaned his port with a qtip with most of the cotton stripped off and rubbing alchohol, just dont let any fuzz get loose if you go that route.

-When you are ABSOLUTELY SURE the alchohol has evaporated, replace your battery, and test.

Doing this is of course at your own risk, but it sounds to me like something got inside your port, and it needs a cleaning.

Best of luck.

Clean the port bro, I'm tryin to tell ya, it should work. I've seen it fix several that have been in a similar state. Maybe the battery contacts too just to cover all bases.

Clockworkmod Recovery for the HTC Chacha.

Please note I don't have the device and therefore can't give any support. I'm sorry.

You will find adlx.xda's cwm HERE [source]

My older, own CWM 4 port can be found HERE or from the attachments

02-05-12: Updated thread and dropped S-OFF tag.

15-04-12: adlx.xda has updated his 5.0.2.8.

05-02-12: adlx.xda has built a 5.0.2.8 CWM Recovery.

23-01-12: adlx.xda has built a 5.0.2.7 CWM Recovery.

24-07-11: Updated with huge CID list for ALL s-off users.

25-07-11: Updated with CWS__001.

14-10-11: Added original recovery update.zip

15-10-11: Fixed Error 6 bug for stock recovery

Put PH06img.zip on your sdcard, reboot into bootloader mode and flash CWM.

Quick tut to boot into bootloader mode:

Go to settings -> Power -> untick Fastboot
Turn off the phone
Hold VOL Down + Power for 5 seconds

If you are already rooted and want to flash the CWM recovery on your Chacha, you can also:

- Use Alex.C's 1 click recovery flasher,

- Use Goo Manager

Both applications are available for free on the Market.

-----

Update: Here is the stock recovery.

You can flash this in order to help you update to version 1.52, which can be found HERE

A quick how-to on upgrading version 1.33 to 1.52
Step 1: Install Stock Recovery
Step 2: Rename the OTA_blabla.zip into PH06IMG.zip and put it on your SDCard
Step 3: Flash the image by rebooting into bootloader
Step 4: Put CWM's PH06IMG.zip on your SDCard again
Step 5: Flash CWM by rebooting into bootloader.

Got help from Geek78, which will order the XTC Clip.

Edit:

Nevermind, I found all I need thanks to Football from the RUU.

I am setting up my build environment (Read: Installing Linux and downloading 11gb of stuff) and will compile the first trial recovery, availible for all S-OFF users to try. For now, those only are people which got the device in an S-OFF state, or ordered an XTC clip, though I believe Alpharev will offer an option to get S-OFF for free. Time will tell!
[HTC ChaCha] Moody:
Really? No single person? You just need to type out two commands. It won't do anything to your phone, I pinky-swear!

I don't have the device, and that root method only works for S-OFF users, I'm sorry :o
[HTC ChaCha] Moody:
I'm very excited about this too! Can't wait for someone to try :)

IF it doesn't work (might be that the buttons are not configured right), you can just flash the 1.18 OTA (faster than full image dump) and your original recovery will be back, though I don't see any point of restoring to the stock recovery.. I'm also not sure if updating will remove your S-OFF, so you're best off just keeping this recovery build.

oh, I'm going on vacation Juli 28th (which is also my 17th birthday, hurray!), so I think I'll be able to read your response, but don't think I'll be able to build a new recovery before I'm back, if it's not perfect yet, that is :)

booting...

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

Anyone has the stock recovery.img I could flash back in case this one doesn't work?

[HTC ChaCha] Moody:
Ah, thanks, I guess we would need an engineer HBOOT for that then, I believe seeing someone with an engineering hboot around.

The inability to use fastboot does not mean we can't flash recoveries. We could still flash_image from the device, but I don't know if that'll work with just ship s-off..

Another (rather painful, but working) method is a fake recovery, which I really would dislike to see, but might be a last resort.
