Yeah sure remove the VENDING.apk in the system/app folder, root permission is needed for this though, I use a program called root explorer, and this will remove the android market from the phone/tablet.

But there would still be other ways to install apps, that would be just removing the most obvious

I found a link here on hwo to install the swype beta on a different phone. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1154334

So you don't have to click here are the steps

So in step 6 when you go to delete the file, I don't see that in my list and wanted to know if it has a different name for our phone.

I tried just un-installing Swype with titanium backup (after backing it up) and then installing the beta but after a restart it would throw an error saying Swype stopped working over and over again until I de-selected it. But I did not follow these steps, only the uninstall and install portions.

Any advice is appreciated.
[Motorola Droid X2] religi0n:
I had the same issue but then I tried the steps again, and restarted twice and it seemed to work. now I get an error after boot saying it isn't licensed correctly but then it goes away and works for me perfectly.

I uninstalled Swype with TBP, deleted the libswypecore.so file, rebooted, and installed the beta. It was that simple for me...

[Defy General] olegbere:
well i think im bricked, i tried installing Cyanogen 7 with Mod Manager on my rooted defy, and then my phone just refused to boot, just showing the M logo.

going to recovery i see Android recovery <2e> something of that sort.

ive read about flashing an sbf with rsdlite but my computer wont recognize the phone when i plug it in and device manager shows nothing.

any help would be greatly appreciated since im a huge noob apparently:(
[Defy General] arpith.fbi:
did u try wiping cache ?
[Defy General] cargobr151:
@olegbere

Which Rom Version had you installed before?

For using CM7, you must flash a Froyo Rom before CM7.

For using the CM7 Rom, you must flash a Froyo Rom before CM7.

You can restore a Nandbackup of a Froyo Rom, with a fixed SBF. (it works)

Then root the Rom and flash the Custom Recovery. (2nd init or Clockwork)

After this reboot into Recovery and flash the CM7 Rom, with flash zip from sd card...:)
[Defy General] olegbere:
i had the stock 2.1 installed that must be the problem, how do i restore a nand backup? the phone wont boot past the stock recovery screen <2e> and i tried wiping cache, doing a factory reset, how do i restore a nand backup?
[Defy General] cargobr151:
Flash an appropriate Eclair2.1 Rom or a Froyo Rom via SBF.

Then Root the Rom and flash an CustomRecovery.

You can an Nandbackup only restore with a CustomRecovery!

If you want flash CM7 you must flashing first a Froyo Rom. (example: Froyo Nandbackup + fixed SBF, then you can again downgrade to Eclair, info here.)
[Defy General] olegbere:
but i cant flash anything since rsdlite wont show my phone, and it doesnt even show up in device manager.

ive tried running RSD as administrator, downloading latest drivers, using RSD ver5.1...

You allready have installed the USB driver from motorola?

yep, installed latest USB drivers, motohelper, got RSDLite 5.3.1, end-user drivers for motorola 5.1.0 for 64bit, device manager shows nada when connecting the phone in recovery mode, while booting up to recovery while connected, any combination possible

is there anyway to do something from the SDcard? the recovery gives me the options to

reboot

apply update.zip

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache

update.zip comes up with an error, wiping data and cache resulted in nothing, wiping and then applying update.zip also nothing

Put the phone into bootloader mode and connect it to pc. The rsdlite will detect it and auto retrieve its flash drivers. The rsdlite will show device connected. Make sure you get the correct driver 64bit or 32bit, they fall under two different platforms

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] PCLiteratesJax:
I bought this MyTouch 3G version 32b phone for $ 20 on craigslist to learn about rooting etc (I don't want to sacrifice my MyTouch 4G for that LOL). I guess this phone was a rooting attempt gone bad. No matter what I do, which button combination I use, it goes into hboot/fastboot. I checked the volume rocker button possibly being stuck by disassembling the phone and noticed that there were 2 - 8GB microSD cards on top of each other in the microSD card slot. One of them is readable (the one that was stuck on top), the other one won't get recognized when I use my microSD card adapter in my computer. I noticed also that the moisture detectors in the phone are all pink which I assume is NOT a good thing LOL. From what I have learned by reading posts on here and other websites I need to install a new rom on the phone to make it work again (if that is even possible). The phone is not being recognized by windows when I connect it with a USB cable to my computer, the SD card won't show up at all. Shall I accept that this phone is bricked and stop wasting my time on it or do you think there is something I can do to make it work again? Thank you so much for your help !! :confused:

The hboot screen shows this:

<BACK> FastBoot Mode

When I power it on, it goes through some sd card checks, at least that is what it looks like. I took the phone apart again and noticed that the volume button flex cable is broken, could that be the reason why it is acting up?

I GOT IT FIXED !! Actually, I completely disconnected the volume up/down flex cable from the board and put the phone back together. VOILA, it booted right up. It seems to be working so far, at least from what I can see. Maybe this will help others who have the same issue. It could be a hardware issue such as a broken flex cable. THE PHONE IS NOT BRICKED and once I get a replacement volume flex cable, I'm ready to root and play around with it, yes !!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] kkoshko1:
I got a quick question may be a little stupid but I'm curious. My gf has the Samsung fasinate I put a Tom on there for her and the sms stock theme is slick. Is there any way I can install that sms app on the galaxy 4g or will it just force close ?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
You would have to pull the mms.apk from her ROM, then transfer it to your phone. Then copy the file to system/app rename your old mms.apk first, then copy new one over. Be sure to change permissions to rw-r-r.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] kkoshko1:
OK sweet ,I found a transparent mms app on these forums when I put it in the system folder I overwrite than go to use it and its still stock !
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
Did you rename the original one. If you have the link I will test it out.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:

[Android Software Development] Skullmonkey:
I have made an application for my fire department where it will send a text message when we get paged out. The only problem right now is that I have to hard code the numbers of the members in until I learn how to do multiple contact selection and code it in.

For right now, myself and 3 other people have the program but I am constantly adding/deleting numbers. How would I go about adding a button that could check a personal server for an application update? I don't want to put this application on the market for the simple fact that it needs to stay private.
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
Why not just read the contact info from a web server? Just update it in one place and the clients get it from there.
[Android Software Development] notverycreative:
I did that on my own app. It downloads the file from my Sourceforge site, takes the MD5 sum of it, and compares it to its own MD5. It's inefficient because it downloads the entire file before deciding if it needs to update, but it works and all I have to do to update it is change the .apk it downloads.

The relevant .java file in my app can be found here and the pertinent method is the update method starting on line 214. It uses the downloadAndInstall() ASyncTask on line 337, as well. Hope it helps!

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htcjikelly:
I think I've been driving everyone crazy with my questions about concerning my streaks restart loop.

I have tried everything I can think of to fix it and it's not working so I'm thinking maybe I should call in the warranty.

I of course have rooted my streak as I upgraded it to 2.1 then 2.2 then 2.2.2 then streakdroid then gingerstreak then back to 2.2. Does that mean I can't use the warranty?

I did purchase a squaretrade warranty as well and that's an option. I think they have a 50 dollar deductible though.

What says the mighty XDA community?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanemburghj:
You have posted before you can get very small periods of normal operation. Try getting it back to stock (for AT&T either 340 or 353), if you get there turn it off, call Dell technical support and walk them through your issues. Most likely will get a refurb unit. Was pretty painless for me, 20 - 30 minutes talking to them and two days later FEDEX is dropping off refurb unit. I have one already due to power switch and wife because 30 pin went bad, and from looks of it going to call them again about the wife's. Anyway point being, get to official stock and RMA your Streak. Good Luck.

PS. Don't do your co-pay unless you really have too, Dell will replace free of charge as long as you are under warranty.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htcjikelly:
I think I have it back to stock, but I recall tethering and wifi hotspot being in the build which means it couldn't be stock, right??
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanemburghj:
Good question am on 1.9.1, won't be home to later to look at wife's stock ROM to answer. Hopefully another user can answer shortly, if not I will make point to answer.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peeps99:
I agree with vanemburghj. Call dell and troubleshoot for a bit, then they will send you a replacement. I bought mine off craigslist in November and it had an overheating problem. Dell replaced it with a NEW unit and my name was not even in there system. I have always had great service from Dell.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htcjikelly:
I have always been happy with Dell. I deal with them a lot at work. The Streak support seems to be spotty, but you also have to know how to talk with Dell support.

How did your overheating problem manifest itself?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peeps99:
It started when I took my phone fishing and it was in direct sunlight for a few hours at 90 degrees. It restarted then kept boot looping. That is the only thing I can think of.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htcjikelly:
Hrm, mine got really hot one day sitting in the sunlight out by the pool. I wonder if that's what has happened to my streak.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsmwookie:
Dell handled mine perfectly. All they care about is your Service Tag # and IMEI# if those don't turn up stolen or with any other issues you're golden. Oh and the manufactured date which goes by your IMEI.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanemburghj:
No tethering or hotspot on wife's 353 baseband, if you RMA make sure you get it back to stock.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htcjikelly:
Dell is sending me a replacement Streak!!!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanemburghj:
That is good news, 3 times I have dealt with Dell for replacement unit, have been painless. Only issue was returned one for problems with 30 pin connector on phone, just to receive replacement with same issue.

When should you receive your replacement?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htcjikelly:
I got the replacement yesterday and just preped the old one for return to Dell thanks to your post on the QDL tool.

I thought I had a problem getting into recovery until I realized I just needed to be pressing the volume up and down buttons.

I put the streak on 340 for the return.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanemburghj:
Glad to hear it worked out for you, sure Dell has their issues but every RMA I did went off without a hitch.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htcjikelly:
I discovered last night that the referb unit has the exact same SIM card in restart loop problem.

I called Dell and the rep wanted to just send me a new Streak but they show as unavailible. So she said they could send another refurb. I'm going to ask if I can wait for a new one.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hello@world:
does anyone know if Dell charge for diagnostics, if they find the problem is not a defect? thanks.

Today the digitizer on my phone went out. The glass is fine, no cracks or anything, but the screen is black and white tie dyed looking. So it's hard to go from streakdroid 1.9 to stock when you can't see what you are doing! Will Dell replace with streakdroid on it?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mills2533:
Excellent. That means there will be one more in the refurb pile for someone else to purchase. The refurbs are becoming plentiful and at great prices.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daxxer2007:
What's the purpose of overclocking and undervolting. What's the reason for the undervolting?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beastclaw:
It reduces CPU temperature and the amount of battery needed. It is especially useful when you overclock your CPU as both benefits are seen then.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoulderGeek:
Undervolting typically increases instability, unless it is also in conjunction with underclocking.

If you overclock, you might add voltage to keep the processor running higher than its rated speed. Similarly, if you drop the clock cycles, you may be able to drop voltage and run a cooler, more power-friendly processor.

I am currently underclocking to 768MHz on stock voltage.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daxxer2007:
Is that why with the speedtweak on 1.92 with the under volting makes the phone lock up.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeshmoo:
Likely. The only time I experienced frequent locks was when I was undervolted extremely. If you're running an overclocked and undervolted simultaneously you increase the odds that the cpu won't have enough juice to run properly.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
Virtually every device will tolerate speedtweak's extreme undervolt/overclock to 1.41GHz with complete stability. Most will also remain stable running within stock voltage up to 1.222GHz. I've never been a fan of running with a hard cap on speed. Adjusting governor settings makes more sense. I'm also thinking underclocking and using HTC stock voltage scaling is a waste since the CPU will definitely remain more stable at more extreme undervolting at those speeds. Some kernels will run well with a minimum voltage of 650.

Hello,

I know this is a Stupid Question.I want to Have a Excellent Quality of Pics with Camera.Can you guys give me few Suggestions about it or the Settings came with Mobile are good no need to change?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chalger:
Let me say it this way.

It's not the camera takes excellent shots. It's you.

I'm rather experienced photographer and this is an advice i may give you free of charge ;)

Nah, just joking, but there's no joke saying you (not the camera) are responsible for quality of your shots... first of all Samsung's phones by default take good pics, you may change many diffrent setting, where I suggest you work with:

* White Balance

* Using flash light (or avoiding using of)

* Exposure compensation etc..

But that's just a headache really! The most important thing is to know how to compose shots. Color, contrast, lines, curves, points, expression, dynamics or a lack of, sharpness or a lack of (whatever you think is required) etc, etc... after all you just need to shoot as much as you can to find out how YOU see the world. Simple :)

You need to realize one thing, there are many photographers having gear (DSLRs, flashes, softboxes) worth thousand$$$$ but still taking crappy shots while there are also passionates who owns simple devices and shot f**ng amazing stuff, for instance just search for "The best camera is the one that's with you" at Books.Google.com, one lad published (in real world, bookstores etc) an album containig photographs taken with a bloody iphone! And these shots are truly pure genius mate!

Once again: It's not the camera - it's you!

Good luck!
