i was after a little help,i am currently running the official uk 2.2 rom on my T-mob Defy.Now T-mob has released the official 2.2 i would like to put that on my defy so i can make a nandroid backup incase of warranty issues,my question is how do i get my phone back to a stock state (from 2.2uk to 2.1 t-mob)so i can download the update as a backup?

thanks for your help

scottie:confused:
[Defy General] scottie1973:
or point me to a thread where i can download a fixed t-mob 2.51.sbf as ive been reading and reading and reading...but getting nowhere....please a little help!
[Defy General] kashavsehra:
Hi Scottie

Both the t-mobile 2.21 and 2.51 sbf files are available here:

http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy

Don't forget that if you want to keep downgradability, you need to flash a 'fixed' 2.2 rom plus the system nandroid.

Rgds,

Kash.
[Defy General] scottie1973:
thanks for the pointer,so...i want to get back to 2.51,i have my backup of original,so do i just flash the 2.51 rom then restore my backup?or have i missed something ?
[Defy General] cargobr151:
You have Froyo with Full sbf installed?

Then you can not directly downgrade to Eclair 2.1!!

You need a Nandbackup from a 2.51 Eclair Rom,

and a Fixed 2.51 SBF

.

If you have this, then reboot into Recovery, do a Fullwipe and restore the 2.51 Nandbackup.

After this, reboot directly into the Bootloader Mode (hold the Vol+ Button), and flash via RSD Lite the fixed 2.51 SBF.

[Wildfire General] boomshankar:
hello guys,

i have stock froyo since its released everything was working fine..since last few weeks when i charge my phone battery charging is stuck near 70 or 80 %, it never reaches 100% .. if i restart the phone it shows charging full.

i put my battery in friends phone it was showing normal charge in it..and his battery in my cell it was again same story..

so i guess its not battery issue

please assist.
[Wildfire General] zephyri-xr:
I had a similar problem with my ol prophet.

I let the phone deplete its battery and charge over and over again (4 times as I can remember) and it's solved.

But I don't think it's the same. People were doing something to raise battery life and health, I can't remember. Or a simple factory reset (or a wipe) could solve. Possibilities.
[Wildfire General] rakesh595160:
same with my wildfire tried 2 or 3 roms but stil not able to slove my problem it stuck around 70 to 90 % please help me out buddy ..
[Wildfire General] Trademark225:
Try wiping battery stats using ClockWorkMod recovery (I believe AmonRa has this function as well).
[Wildfire General] boomshankar:
thanks guys for replying

i have stock 2.2 froyo.. i guess i have to try factory reset.. but will try that draining and charging thing first ..

any other solutions
[Wildfire General] boomshankar:
factory reset also did not work.. any other solution guys ??

[XPERIA X2 General] alexysc88:
Hi guys. I know I'm in the wrong forum but since M1 Aspen has no forum and it is the closest to X2, I can't think of a better place.

The problem for me is that my M1 Aspen are somehow lacking many stuffs that was specified. These includes Xperia Facebook Panel, Twitter Panel, On the Road Panel and Traveller Panel. I did try to install the Facebook Panel for X1 but it wont work.

After I explored my Aspen for several months now, I found out that my Aspen has the standard SPB Panel cab files in the \Windows directory. I think other complete Aspen set has those other missing cab files I am in dire for. It would be even greater if anyone could upload the whole ROM for me to reflash with a proper 1.

Can any guys please help me upload these cab files please. I don't even has playnow cab or installed in my device. And all Sony Ericsson can tell me is that they no longer support this device.

Thanks all for help!

[Galaxy S II General] matanc1:
How can I tell if my device is Sim Free?

I bought it in the UK and when I put my sim in it (not a UK one) it worked.

Does it being simfree affect installing ROMS?

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II General] daleski75:
That sounds sim free to me and you can put on any number of roms both stock and custom and it will always remain sim free.
[Galaxy S II General] IakobosJ:
If you put a none-UK sim into a UK phone and it works, then your phone is SIM Free.

Your phone being SIM free does not effect installing ROMS at all :)

You're good to go.

[Verizon Droid Charge] userxx:
I am not rooted, totally stock. I have tried 2 different HDMI cables and both of them play videos to my LCD TV. But not the audio? Even if I play streaming or from the SD card, no audio. No sounds from any app. And yes the volume is turned all the way up on all volume controls.... media vol, tv vol. Any word on this bug? I have read others having the same problem.
[Verizon Droid Charge] RomTec:
There are posts about issues with certain hdmi cables not working correctly or not at all. There are different grades of hdmi cables which may be the reason. I recommend getting a cable advertised for droid. I got one from verizon store thats for the droid x and works great.

Gremlins are watching you...
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Umm, I'm having the opposite problem :) audio, but no videos. Can play games and stuff and it shows (both audio and video) but if i try to play some movies or something, i get audio only. What's up with this?

[Verizon Droid Charge] byrnsey88:
Yeah I am having trouble too. I want to route the sound out the audio port and just send the video to the TV.
[Verizon Droid Charge] userxx:
I personally think their is a bug. I have been reading up on this and it works fine for some but not for others. Over at the verizon forms their are a few reports about it. Some say certain cables work on certain HDTVs and then the same setup doesn't work on their friends HDTVs or bedroom HDTV. No consistency or solution, just hit and miss at this point :/

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:
[New Question.] So let's start with the first things I'll need to know.....

how do I build root into a stock rom?

How do I create a flashable .Zip from scratch for my rom to go in?

How do I edit the text from cwm when I flash this rom?

And yes this thread is going to become a guide once I learn all I need to know about Building roms for the epic =]

[ANSWERED]So I'm thinking about kicking windows out the, erm, window lol..... I want to start learning about developing and want to start a few projects to pay back the community..... I'm guessing I can't develop on windows so I was wondering what would be the best version of Linux to use?..... and would it be possible to port a driver from windows to Linux?[ANSWERED]

A little how to for this guide..... Thank you mkasick =]
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
If you've never used Linux before I would recommend using something like Mint just to get your feet wet.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:
Oh I've used mint, opensuse,Ubuntu, fedora, and debian before..... but I don't know which one is best for developing roms and compiling kernels and all that jazz..... and I don't think my wifi USB has a native driver for Linux so that's what's really keeping me from overwriting windows.....
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomasskull666:
I use Ubuntu, I know a lot of people use gentoo but it's definitely not like debian based distros lol

Like you said with the driver, it all comes down to what is available and compatible with your system. I recommend Ubuntu just because of the (duh) massive support base compared to other distributions in terms of drivers and such.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:
Thank you for the advice =]

EDIT: I don't know much about command lines..... what do people mean when they say "cd" like "cd to the folder in the terminal"?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alkah0liK:
Change Directory

So something like cd /sys/app nvigates you in the "app" directory within the system *folder* you will then be installing / modify / editing or whatever to the files in that specified directory.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:
Okay well I just installed Ubuntu 11.04 on top of vista and I can already tell I'm going to be spending most of my time on Linux instead of windows if I can get this driver installed without causing wwIV

EDIT: Okay so everytime I type "sudo" to gain root the terminal asks for my password but it won't let me type it???? What do I dooo!!!!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkasick:
For application and kernel development it doesn't really matter which distribution you're running as the commonly used packages (e.g., Android SDK/NDK, Java, Sourcery G++ Lite) are fairly agnostic.

If you wanted to compile the AOSP source tree, Ubuntu might be the best route, only because the documentation uses Ubuntu configurations and package names as examples.

And yes, it worth going through command line tutorials. I don't recommend that one specifically, it was just the first hit on Google.

As for your sudo issue, just type the password. It doesn't show you the password as you type it for privacy purposes.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:
Yeah I went ahead and typed it but no go..... ill boot back into Ubuntu and try it again but if its still not working what's my next move? Sorry for being such a Linux noob in xda lol
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazfanatic:
Did you install or are you running live?

Got this from http://ubuntuforums.org/

You can't login as root. Ubuntu does not use the root account. You can use sudo if you need to do anything as root, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

As far as I know, the password on the live CD is empty. Just press Enter when it asks for a password after entering "sudo <command>".
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:
Well I did the dual boot option so when I boot my system I choose between Ubuntu and vista..... I had to choose a password and it worked when I typed it this time..... but now I have another problem lmao.....

I can enter "sudo make" and it does its thing, then I enter "sudo make install" and all goes well, but then I enter "sudo modprobe rt3572sta" and it returns "Invalid module format".....

I copied the entire terminal convo if it would help I can post it?

Any ideas?

EDIT: yeah I made an account over their at the forums but it seems pretty slow especially when I need help with one specific device?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvtjoker42:
One way to avoid the nightmare of patching together a working wifi driver in linux, install it in a VM (Virtualbox or Vmware) on the vista side. Then you can use the wifi adapter through the windows driver.. And then you don't have to do a full reboot to get to windows or ubuntu/mint.. (love Mint btw.. it lives in my VM, laptop, seedbox and soon to be server)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xopher.hunter:
Lol I once compiled a driver to use my blackjack 2 as a modem on a 300mhz thin client rdp computer that I got puppy linux to run on in 2007
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomasskull666:
Good suggestion, makes things a lot easier. The only thing is performance, you will be running on (usually) half the power of the computer which will slow compile times to a crawl for example.

As far as the root password goes, use the passwd command to change it:

sudo passwd root whateverpassword
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:
Thanks that's what I was thinking about doing but like thomasskull said it likely gonna take a dump on performance but may be the only choice I have....

Well I don't really care much about changing password anymore cause I was finally able to enter the password but as always there's another problem..... ill probably post the terminal readings later on tonight when I get back to my computer.... and as for using a virtual machine, is there another way to go without dumping performance and without dealing with installing drivers through the terminal.....

Thank you all so much.... you guys have no idea how much I appreciate your help =]
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:
So I downloaded VMware Player, where do I go from there to get the drivers installed so that I can reboot into Ubuntu and use the wifi card?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art2Fly:
Well, under vmware workstation you should be able to just install a vm with just the iso file or the cd of the ubuntu build you want to install, its prescripted, and easy t use. With vmware workstation you can define hoow many proscessors you want to use, threads, ram, w/e... then vmware also installs a network service under windows that uses windows to transfer the network data into your vm. No need to configgure your wifi under linux anymore :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art2Fly:
Also, I think you're missing the point of a Virtual Machine. A VM runs alongside your current OS install. Software like VMWare Workstation acts as if its a virgin computer and makes an image file on your hard drive that acts as a hard drive for the VM. You can be running windows and linux simutaneously with a VM. For instance, whenever I develop or need linux, I open my vm nd use it on my seccond monitor. One monitor windows, the other linux, and you can even drag and drop **** to each other os. Its amazing. Just make sure you allocate uenough threads and ram to your vm and you should be fine.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:
Can I use all the ram and threads because I only have 1GB ram and a 3GHhz dual core processor..... or is that enough to run it
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvtjoker42:
with only 1gb of ram, you probably wouldn't want to run a VM since you'd really not want to use more than 512mb of your total 1gb.. With that little ram, your best choice is the dual boot setup.

This was posted by an XDA member regarding the sensation

"With the My Touch 4g I'm sure you MT4G users will remember the good screen/bad screen issue. Where one lcd panel was made by sony, and the other was made by sharp. The Sharp lcd screen would wash out more on an angle than the sony. I have read some people speculate that the sensation might have the same "issue"

It has been confirmed that the Sensation has two different LCD panels. One made by Acer (AUO) and one made by sharp. The sensation does not have a good screen bad screen issue. Some people prefer the acer screen and others prefer the sharp. I have had both and they both are really beautiful displays. You can only really tell the difference if they are side by side.

To find out which panel you have:

Use terminal emulator (free from the market) and run the command dmesg (root is not needed obviously).

it will output a bunch of stuff.. look for this line and report it: (if you can't find it you can long press on the output in terminal emulator copy all and then paste it into an email and send it to yourself)

just look for the line (the numbers might not be the same) [ 9178.895111] Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_??????

Mine is sharp so my line is Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_SHARP

If you have searched and can't find reboot and try again. "

Also you may email the output using terminal emulator all to yourself to make it easier as when you view the email in your browser, you can use CTRL + F to search for the word panel.

Hi,

A while ago (months) I found a script on here that helped me to create a 1gig partition, and then tell the phone that it was phone memory and the used that to store apps.

The last couple of times I tried to update my CM7 nightly (I did my last update in May and haven't had time since) my phone has reverted to it internal storage and not remembering how I got there, I just rolled it back.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can put the 1 gig partition back as phone memory (I tried looking for the script again, but can't remember which one it is. I only need to tell the android it's there right?)
