So long as you don't lose your job and get sick, that is.

I much prefer the Leonard Cohen view of America ... "the cradle of the best and the worst".
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Blue6IX:
For anyone who doesn't know how the "free app of the day" deal at amazon works from a developer standpoint:

Amazon will tabulate the sales and pay the developer 20% of the full list price of the app for each "free" transaction.

Essentially, Amazon buys each "free" app purchase from the developer at a reduced cost.

If you pirate the app or download it from anywhere besides Amazon, on the day it is offered, then you still burn the developer out of the money that rightfully belongs to them.

Amazon does this to drive traffic to their web site, and to score more money in advertising and hopefully repeat business. But this app is not free like other free apps - Amazon still pays the owner of that app for each person who downloads it.

Please do not do what you are suggesting. It doesn't seem like a big deal at first, but knowing this now you will see how wrong it is.

I don't find your post offensive, a lot of people probably do not know this.

Hopefully this can serve to make more people aware of how the process works with Amazon.

To the OP, can't you create an account in amazon even if you are from outside the US? Just seems kind of weird to me...but then again, I don't know.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SB13X:
I used to be able to leave my phone on standby overnight with 30% of battery with wifi on but whenever I do now it kills the battery and I mean kills it. Its dead to the point of me not being able to boot the phone on and have it shut down on me. I put my charger in and the LED flashes for a while and its only when it stays solid that the phone has enough charge for me to turn it on.

Is this a problem with the ROM or the firmware build its based on or am I missing a setting? WiFi is not on best performance mode and I have selected to turn off after 15mins inactivity?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twiztedvvv:
It's likely to be due to the rom you are using. What rom is it?

It's not necessarily the wifi draining the battery.

The latest MIUI roms are terrible for battery drain relating to the mic not switching off. Post back and I will try and help.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbbigdave:
Make sure you check under SETTINGS>>WIRELESS & NETWORKS>>WIRELES SETTINGS then press menu and then Advanced. Make sure the "Best Wifi Performance is unticked, and whilst your here may as well check the sleep timers.

If this doesn't work, then you may want to hunt down the app "Battery Historym for GB" which will allow you to see the battery history in GingerBread Sense based ROMS. this will allow you to look at what has been using the battery. What you are most interested here is the partial wake usage, or what has been stopping the phone from deep sleeping.

It might be the wifi or it might be an app you installed recently.

Make sure you do the usual, Check HTC Sync is not on, and other accounts which can get jammed in the sync process. I find google calendar can do that for me.

Also rememebr to check your radio is matched to your ROM and maybe get SetCPU (Search for it on here for the free for XDA subscribers version) and check your speed settings and governator. Im using Smoothass atm and it runs awesome for me.

Err. his ROM is entirely in his Signature...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SB13X:
Yeah all unticked, that was my first port of call. :)

I'll do this now.

Yeah I don't have anything but my Facebook/Twitter and Google accts setup to sync and thats even set to manual so as to avoid constant data drain. I know the HTC Sync and HTC Sense accounts draining battery and the fact that both Facebook and Twitter for HTC Sense along with Flickr cause the Calendar process to keep the phone awake.

Will have to double check on Lees thread but was under the impression the governor you mentioned runs on boot on Leedroid, I have setcpu installed but haven't given it root as I heard of setCPU causing issues with some Sense GB ROMS. I'll try everything else and look at that as a last resort.

Thought the same lol ;) Thanks for all your help :D

Just another question regarding tethering. Using the free android tether program I'm only able to wireless tether to my macbook, shows up as a "device" instead on a router like my captivate used to. And I can't get any other devices or phones to tether from my phone like I used to.

Anyone got any ideas? Is this the adhoc vs infrastructure thing that I keep hearing about?

Hello all. I've tried to install Cyanogen mod 7 installed on my NC for a few days now. Every way I do it, it seems to install alright, but when it boots, it hangs at the loading screen indefinitely. I've started seeing that darn blue arrow in my nightmares. Any ideas?

Thanks
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] les02jen17:
Seeing that you were able to reach those blue arrows, it means you were able to follow the instructions correctly. But just so we can identify what was done wrong, let's do an isolation test. :D

Does you NC have a blue/green dot in the box?

Where did you install the CM7?

What specific ROM did you install--is it experimental/stable/nightly? What build?

Did you install gapps?

Did you try to check the MD5 Checksum of the file you downloaded?

>Keep me posted, I'm willing to help out. :)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnkcoles:
Alright!

I followed the instructions given at the youtube video titled "How to Install CyanogenMod 7 on the Nook Color (PC Version)"

(Sorry can't post links yet)

The rundown...

Installed CWM on SD, placed latest stable release of CM7 and gapps on SD root, booted into cwm, format/factory reset, clear boot, system, cache and data, (I was having trouble clearing \data, so i ran the repartition and reformat zips on his links.) flashed CM7 then GAPPS immediately after. Rebooting, I got the load screen, but it didn't go anywhere after waiting at least 15m.

My box has a blue dot on the back.

I haven't checked the Checksum of the file, not sure how to go about that/what that means. :confused:

Thanks for the help! :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PunkOz:
Well, I'm having a frame drop or some kind of lag when im scrolling in application list too fast, sometimes it happens when im scrolling slow. And the same goes for homescreen, sometimes i get like 1 second lag which is very noticeable i don't know if this is normal or Galaxy S2 shouldn't lag like this at all.

I've tried Factory Reset, Change firmware, Data/Cache Wipe.

Im currently running 2.3.4 XXKG2 i got this lag in KF7 and KG1 too

I don't know if everyone is having this problem or only me, even ADW Launcher and Launcher PRO lags a little .. I don't have any heavy application open that can cause this i only have Facebook and eBuddy open.

Do you guys think if i tick Partition and load a .pit file will fix this? Or mabe a Dalvik Cache wipe? :/ Im sad even the iPhone has smoother scrolling u_u
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prodygee:
iOS is all about it's interface. You can't compete to it with Android. Never tick partition, why would you think that'd fix it? Are you running a lot of widgets or anything? Because I cannot reproduce this lag you have.

If you do all those clean installs and wipes and flashes, the cause just can't be your phone itself. After the flashing, do you restore your apps using some titanium backup or something? Maybe the settings or apps are a little faulty.

Try using a CPU monitor to see if anything sucks up CPU power, because I can't imagine the phone lagging from nothing.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
You will have to get S-OFF using AlphaRev X, then, Push a Custom Recovery (Clockworkmod) and Superuser to get Root. Then flash a Custom kernel which supports overclocking, and use an app like SetCPU to finally overclock.

The overview of the process can be found here:

- S-OFF using AlphaRev X

so that means that if i want to overclock it i can't use the stock rom?...

and also after i s-off it, root it and flash it, is there anyway that i can undo it if i were to send it in to claim warranty?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
You can OC on the Stock ROM. Rooting and S-OFF'ing are essentially "additions". They do not modify your Stock ROM. But Yes, flashing a Custom kernel is necessary, because the stock kernel doesn't allow OC.

Also, Yes, You can get back easily to claim warranty, with the 2 steps:

1) Flash an RUU. This will revert you to the completely stock ROM and removes Clockworkmod Recovery

2) Follow this guide to remove AlphaRev X's Bootloader: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1160251
[HTC Inspire 4G] AudioMaster13:
I recently got a brand new Inspire 4g. I rooted it using bubby's super one click root method. However, I am haveing some serious problems with ROM's. I can rarely get a flash to work. Android Revolution stuck on the white HTC screen for half an hour, Virtuous Unity stuck on the black HTC screen after the flash. The only ROM that has worked so far is LeeDr0ID. Does anyone have any explanation for this? Is it just my phone? Should i try re-rooting and s-off-ing with the attain hack kit or what?? Anyone have any ideas??
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
You may have bad internal flash ROM, but it's not likely. If it's consistent across many tries, then you may need to return the phone for replacement. Just make sure you wipe everything between flashes--or at least cache and dalvik-cache. You may want to try a "format system" from recovery, but most ROM cookers will ensure this gets done in their scripts.

As for re-running the root process, it's a waste of time, if your HBOOT shows S-OFF, then you're unlocked period. No amount of redoing this or that is going to change that.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desirez_pete:
Ok, so I nearly gave up on trying to downgrade because the bootloader wouldn't pick up the PC10IMG.zip on my sd card and this problem has been happening to quite a lot of people. And no one on this board had any solutions other than suggesting to use a different sd card.

So I just found out you can actually flash straight off the PC! Strangely nobody ever thought of noting this in their downgrade guides so I suspect not many people know about it :confused:

I found this on the IRC log and took the relevant stuff and put it together here.

http://fishporn.ca/vision.gingerbread.root.html

Thanks to the guys in the IRC log that posted this info!

Make sure you have the right CID (make a goldcard if you don't) and temp root, you can use AMT tools to 1-click the temp root step by just clicking the downgrade button.

So assuming you have followed the downgrading guide but got stuck at trying to flash PC10IMG.zip in the bootloader this it what I did to resolve it:

Open ADB and do the following:

adb reboot bootloader

When you get to the bootloader and it says FASTBOOT USB type:

fastboot oem rebootRUU

You should now be on the black screen with the HTC logo so now type:

fastboot flash zip PC10IMG.zip

If you get a message saying 'Failed, repeat immediately' just re-run 'fastboot flash zip PC10IMG.zip'

Now you should see ADB saying its sending files etc and there will be a green status bar on the black screen.

And that's it!

If you still have issues go to #G2ROOT irc channel on freenode.

BTW I got stuck again trying to make gfree work using the guide in the devs section so I followed the XDA wiki guide exactly and everything worked out. Make sure to get all the files from the wiki too.

Should add a bit more info maybe.

If you have a wrong CID, you can still use this method with a goldcard.

When you run the fastboot oem rebootRUU you should get a black screen with a silver HTC logo.

If you get a 'Failed, repeat immediately' just re-run 'fastboot flash zip PC10IMG.zip',

if that doesn't work hope over to #G2ROOT irc channel on freenode.
