[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] tryanDLS:
Seems after re-flashing, the phantom cutoff apps on the tuner panel have now changed to load a couple random twitter messages - not anything current either. That would make me think some data is corrupted - been trying to avoid wiping data and doing setup yet again, but may have to bite the bullet.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] tryanDLS:
Tried something new today. Went into Titanium and wiped data for a few of the HTC sense related apps. Then magically, my home screen panels changed back to pre-Synergy. This includes the calendar widget, and my bookmarks widget. FriendStream now appeared on a new panel, but I'm now able to drag and remove it.

Also, lost the new Synergy message panel where all the text convos are are flippable cards. We'll see what happens with these the next time I reboot.

Just noticed that voice search doesn't hear any speech when bluetooth is enabled. As soon as bluetooth is disabled, it works perfectly.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] tryanDLS:
Also seems that 4G is always stuck in 'turning on' mode, but never actually turns on. I am in an area with 4G, so I know it should find 4G at least some of the time.

shameless bump to get to the magic 10 posts limit so this can actually be posted in a thread where the Synergy folds might at actually read it.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] darks1der:
Hi all,

I have started this thread after not being able to find any information besides specs on my Sumixe 7inch tablet running 2.1 eclair on it.

I purchased the device from Chinavision (

big mistake

) and havent been able to get any info out of them regarding firmware.

In the insturction manual provided it shows you how to update the device, But because it was translated into very poor english it is like reading in brail (imposible if you don't know what your looking at). I tryed to follow there procedure to update my device. But this was unsuccesfull.

I then contacted chinavision to get the manufacturs details but they cannot provide me with them.

So i need some help trying to recover a bricked tablet.

First off all where can i get drivers for FWDN for a telechips 8900 arm 11 procersor?

Second can someone dump a copy of there original firmware online for me.

Third. Does anyone know how to get into get into recovery mode on this device after new firmware was installed.

The reason why i want this info is because chinavision want me to pay for shipment back to china which i think is rediculas as it was there crap translation that caused my device to brick.

I would also like to ask the devs to make this thread sticky as there is no info on the net regarding this device that can help. And i know that someone on XDA has a solution :D

Thanks in advance

i came across this tablet on digg, and then wanted to find out more about this tablet and looked on google..i dont know much about it but i found a page where you can get some manufacturer details

http://www.eriktronica.com/sumixe-7-inch-android-tablet-with-wifi-and-camera..html

scroll down a little

about firmware you can try to manually flash same firmware you had before bricking.. or try(if there is such a way) to go to recovery mode factory reset it.

dont you have some sort of warranty?? to send it back or go to a service or something?

i hope this is useful for you, good luck with your tablet!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] darks1der:
Hye pforlin,

Because i orderd my tablet from chinavision they want me to send it back. the cost of sending it back from the netherlands is 20% of the sale value. so not really worth it. I have tryed to do a factory reset, and tryed to get in to recovery mode but havent been succesfull.

I hope i can find someone who has had the same issue to try and get it resolved.

Thanks for your info and ill keep posting to let you know the update
[HTC Incredible S] joefrank:
Ok I tried the motorola Atrix the other day. And I saw that it comes with a better wifi app or signal receiver. I would like to know if some one knows how to make our wifi better or flash custom the atrix wifi app, to see it works better. I have a VIZIO router at home the Inspire just reads the VIZIO signal which runs at 2.5ghz And there is a option to run VIZIO HD which runs up to 5.0+ ghz. But the only device that ever read it was the Moto Atrix, sadly it isn't mine. Although I like the Inspire mutch better. If any one knows I would appreciate some suggestions. I'm doing my own research if anyone interested.:cool:
[Desire Themes and Apps] uttika:
Hi All,

I would need your help in case of Market application.

I have following problem:

- I cannot start Market, because when I try it I receive a warning message: "The linked program is no longer installed on your phone". This message appeared suddenly for one day to the another. The icon and its name were changed on the screen (com.android....). I didn't modify anything, and for some days I haven't been on the Market... The system is original android 2.2, and it's not modified (ROM,etc.).

My question: What can be the reason of this problem? And how can I reinstall this application or what should I do with it?

Thanks for the feedback and the help in advance!

Uttika
[Desire Themes and Apps] itachi1706:
I have no idea what possibly could be the problem. My best guess is it has attempted to update itself and got corrupted in the process. You can try reinstalling it and hopefully it will work. Search for vending.apk in this forum.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] adm90:
Hey everyone, im new here from the original, just got bumped up to the incredible 2 because i lost my dinc1 :(. Insurance gave me a small upgrade so i suppose i should not complain.

However, im having a lil problem, i cant seem to get the drivers for this phone to install and id really like to transfer some stuff from my comp to this new sd card.

If anyone could provide me with a link to download the drivers i would greatly appreciate it. I tried googling it but i suppose im blind, i just couldnt find anything.

Thanks again in advance.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
You shouldn't need any drivers. Just select disk mode (or something close to that) and you should be fine. I've never had to install drivers for that purpose.

For other purposes, then you might need the HTC Sync drivers, but for USB mass storage, you should not.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] adm90:
Yeah i figured the same thing, but when i try to plug in use it as mass storage it never picked it up on my computer. I had this same problem with my dinc1, once i installed the drivers from a link i found then it worked just fine.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
Try installing the HTC Sync software. You can actually remove the software when done, but it will keep the drivers installed.

Out of curiosity, what OS?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
If the installer is still a two part install, then you can skip installing the sync software.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
I wish it was. If I knew a bit about unpacking the installers, I'd yank the drivers out and leave the rest, but I digress. For the non-computer literate (not saying OP is illiterate), it's the easiest method.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] adm90:
Ok ill try a direct download from htc, when i tried to install sync from the phone, it just gave me an error saying my device was not installed properly :/ ill post back with the results in a few minutes. Oh and im running windows 7 64 bit
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
Odd.. That's what I run too, and I haven't installed the HTC Sync drivers since my very recent rebuild. Haven't had any issues. Wonder if there's something to my USB bus or something.. Dunno..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] adm90:
hmmm ok so htc sync was a no go. Still not working. If i go to my computer and see what devices are there, it just shows the verizon cd looking thing, instead of showing a removable hard drive
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
It doesn't show the removable drive? You might want to crack open your phone and reseat the microSD card. Also, reboot the phone too.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] adm90:
ok, im gonna have to try that right after i finish downloading a few songs to the phone lol. ill post with an update once i tried.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Topher227:
I just picked up a new 3G Network Extender. All the lights are blue, but when i make a call, there is about a 25 second delay before the call goes through -- and once it does go through, i notice i have 0 bars. It goes through but i do need to stand on one foot and hop to keep the signal... (the reason why i bought the NE) I've tried calling the #48 to see if im connected, and same deal... the network extender kicks me off after about 25 sec. The odd part is that my buddy has a Thunderbolt (Rooted, CM7) and has no trouble using my NE. I even turned on my old Droid 2 and confirmed that a call to 611 that i can get the two-tones 'your connected' confirmation...

I've called Verizon and gone through technical support, the rep confirmed that once i made a call, she noticed that the extender kicks me off! I can receive calls though, and it goes through the NE (blue activity light blinking and rep confirmed this). She told me that she can see the tower that i'm connected to... creepy yet cool. The only thing they said to me was that a 'ticket' had to be created, and i would hear back within a week.

Anyone else having a similar issue? or a suggestion? Thanks!

EDIT: Forgot to mention, My thunderbolt is rooted... running the MR2 radio with BAMF 3.0, RC4.9

EDIT2: I've tried turning off eHRPD, and messing with CDMA Only (prl) and such.... no luck.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTouch24:
Is there a way that i might be missing to hide albums in the gallery application? I know u can put a "." in front of the folder name to make it hidden to the whole device and possibly add 3rd party applications to hide folders but i just wanted to hide folders i have with icons in them, only in the gallery but still have them available when using other apps, that way i can still customize with the icons
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vansmack:
Try Gallery Excluder. Easy way to choose folders that you want excluded in the gallery.

https://market.android.com/details?id=de.mrfloppycoding.galleryexcluder

Make sure you don't exclude your music and movies folder though.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gerrylum:
If you put a text file in the folder and call it ".nomedia", then none of the images in the folder will show up in the gallery.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoodoomagic:
Unless you're really attached to the stock gallery, I'd recommend trying QuickPic. It lets you hide or exclude folders and numerous other things, it also loads much faster than the stock app.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeandujardin01:
like he said copy this into the folders you wanna hide your pr0n in, it will also hide subfolders too

this works for music images, video ect...

i attached it because its hard to create it under Windows

unzip and place .nomedia in the phone folder
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTouch24:
using this would hide the folder from every app though correct

like if i went to Launcherpro and wanted to change an icon in dock .. when i looked for that folder it would not be found.. really only wanted to block in gallery not the whole system
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CSGirl:
I'm having issues with this. My Nook app, for example, dumps huge folders of pics (from ArticleView I think) in the gallery. I've checked some albums, and they already have .nomedia in them and they still show in the gallery. I tried a few apps to hide the albums, but that breaks the functionality in the app too. :( Any solutions? This is really annoying.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xManMythLegend:
try the app quickpic does an easy job of hiding or excluding folders.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vansmack:
When you manually copy the nomedia file you have to wait for the gallery Db to refresh to see the results.

If you download 'gallery excluder' it will add a nomedia file and allow you to force the media database to update whenever you'd like.
[EVO 4G General] luciferii:
i had clockwork mod but wanted to try amon ra so i flashed it and now cant get rid of it.. anyone know how?
[EVO 4G General] drdrewdown:
you can use rom manager to flash the latest CWM recovery or if you have the recovery image file you can flash it via flash_image with adb or terminal emulator

the command would be something like

flash_image recovery filename.img
[EVO 4G General] Braneless:
Keep Amon....there is NO good reason to use Clockworkmod.
[EVO 4G General] xtremedays:
IMO Amon is a better choice than CWM. I have seen lots of issues with CWM and Rom Manager while Amon RA has had fewer and seems to do a better job. If you are certain you want to switch, go here and follow the directions to get CWM 2.6.0.1
[EVO 4G General] Estimated Prophet:
+1............
[EVO 4G General] droidhype:
Stay on Amon RA.
[EVO 4G General] drdrewdown:
its funny how everyone states its better but doesnt provide any evidence.

flame on
[EVO 4G General] winter128:
The only evidence I can provide is the number of times I had issues with installing roms and had major problems. As soon as I switched to AmonRa all the problems disappeared. Some say the AmonRa clears Dalvik and cache much better. Give it a try.... you can easily switch back and forth.
[EVO 4G General] AZ1412:
I also had problems with cwm flashing new roms/kernels and backing up and restoring. After going to amon ra I haven't had any problems
[EVO 4G General] droidhype:
I had problems installing roms with cwm. Had a couple of boot loop issues because if it. I don't like to use it. Hey, if cwm works for you, fine, last I checked this was a general forum for everyone to give feedback on their personal experiences.
[EVO 4G General] soldierforchrist2:
That's a good point. If you don't mind, I'll share a couple things from my limited experience:

1. Amon-Ra allows you to select which partitions to wipe, making flashing new roms much easier and more intuitive.

2. It allows you to select which partitions to include in nandroid backups as well

3. CWM is no longer backward compatible with older types of flash package scripts. I don't entirely understand this, but I needed to flash rooted OTA 3.70 a few times and had to downgrade my CWM.

Sadly, I'm currently unrooted because of a new phone and the stupid GB OTA update. My own stupid fault, but I'm jealous of any custom recovery at this point...
[EVO 4G General] drdrewdown:
1) you can format any partition in CWM

2) you can choose advance restore when doing a nandroid restore

3) this is well explained in Koush's thread regarding amend vs edify scripting

i understand where you're coming from tho, & i'm sorry you have an unrooted device... i'm not sure how i'd handle that if it was me lol

however on the flipside

i was just vaguely making a point that perhaps all these people who claim Amon_ra is sooo much better are often times the same people who claim they've wiped cache/dalvik 18x & are still having problems.

i personally have no problem with either recovery, they both do exactly what they are supposed to. its quite disrespectful to Koush who is an awesome part of the whole picture. Without him supporting & creating CWM for the crazy amount of devices, where would we all be right now? Not to mention he's a huge part of cyanogemod & for everyone to say his recovery is garbage isn't kosher imo.

its personal preference & honestly none of this has anything to do with the OP & the question he had lol

i mean no hard feelings about anything i've said, so i hope nobody takes offense.
[EVO 4G General] soldierforchrist2:
Sounds reasonable to me. I never figured out how to do those things with CWM, but I was new to rooting at the time and eventually switched to Amon-Ra

By the way, did the person who started this thread ever figure out how to get back to CWM? Doesn't CWM have PC36IMG.zip that you can download and allow to flash?
[EVO 4G General] vbetts:
Only reason I ever switched to Amon's recovery is for the older script support, and really I don't even use that unless it's for a theme for a rom or something. I'm just too lazy to switch back to CWM lawlz.
[EVO 4G General] Calebt:
Right On Brother
[EVO 4G General] soldierforchrist2:
Did you edit this, or did I just miss the latter half the first time reading it?? Very good point, and I'm wondering again if the OP got the help he needed :)

Yeah, lack of root sucks... I think there's some new exploits coming our way very soon though!
[EVO 4G General] drdrewdown:
yea sorry man i was editing as you posted.

i wonder if i'd be tempted to sell my 2.3 evo on ebay then buy one with 2.2 on it lol
[EVO 4G General] Braneless:
Because it's already been documented a thousand times on xda. Why reiterate over and over again?
[EVO 4G General] soldierforchrist2:
No problem. I was just confused, lol.

Lots of other people have done that... I was "out of my mind" for a while, but it looks like I'll be able to root it again very soon!
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
It's Dominos Pizza vs. Pizza Hut. Everyone likes Pizza, some like Pizza Hut, most like Dominos. You can't fault either side, but you can't realistically just proclaim your preference is better either.

I used CWM for awhile, I like AR better. That's just me, and for some reason, most people agree. I really don't think it's a case of the blind following the blind.

Most of the heavy hitters use AR. If for no other reason, that's good enough for me.
[EVO 4G General] :
Agreed!

It is nice to be important, but it is more important to be nice.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xArcane1x:
I assume your phone is rooted. Here is what I can provide so far and hopefully help fix your situation

In order for this to work you have to have recovery working. I'm sure your phone has died by now or you have at least done a battery pull. If so try these steps

1. Make sure G2 is off and plugged in Via USB on your computer

2. Push and

hold

the VOLUME DOWN BUTTON while also pushing down and

holding

the POWER BUTTON. After a few seconds it should boot into bootloader

IF STEP NUMBER 1 DOES NO SUCCEED THEN THE NEXT STEPS WILL NOT APPLY AND SORRY THAT I HAVE NO OTHER KNOWLEDGE TO FIX

3. Using the

volume rocker

, select recovery and push the power button to accept

4. You should now be in recovery

5. Using the

volume rocker

or

track pad

, navigate to Wipe Data/Factory Reset, push track pad to select, track pad to accept "yes I want to want" (or something along those lines :p)

6. After data has been wiped navigate to Wipe Cache and do same as above

7. Navigate to storage and mounts, scroll down to mount storage and select

8. Your SD should now appear on your computer and freely view your SD card as normal.

9. Check to see if the Rom zip that you used is still on your SD card, if not. Drop on the root of your SD card. The root of your SD card is basically the location which when your SD first opens up on your computer that shows all the folders.

Just drop it Anywhere

10. Back to the G2, unmount storage

11. Press back until you are back to the main Recovery page

12. Navigate to advanced and Wipe Dalvik Cache

13. Back to Main Recovery Page

14. Select Install Zip

15. Select install zip from sd card

16. Select the Rom Zip, then Yes I want To Install

17. Back to Main recovery Page

18. Reboot System

19. Smile and say, "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY" :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Xencer:
So guys I posted a thread a week ago or so saying I was gonna return my 3vo for the GSII.

Well I've decided I'm keeping my 3vo!! :D

Mostly due to the fragmentation of the galaxy s phones, it took a while for some quality roms for my Vibrant and I believe the development team for the 3vo will be much better.

Say a dev. gets a galaxy s II phone, the one on sprint vs AT&T vs verizon will all have different stock roms on them to suit their carriers. Also I had a terrible experience with touchwiz and that crap with my galaxy s. I don't like sense but I do think this phone will be the best, until I can buy the new nexus phone.

Well mine is going back on Tuesday.I won the free test trail of the photon and i have to keep it for 45 days then i can do as i want it.I should have it monday or tuesday and i already have my return kit for the evo 3d so back this thing goes.

Then i will hold onto the photon for 45 days in which time the best phone should be out the SGS2 which has no BS about s-off.

I am so tired of all the BS with the s-off of the 3D that back it goes.People claim to have it show a youtube video of it then nothing.

You guys will have it from HTC but i am really turned off by this phone.The screen looks really no different from the EVO and when you get in any light you can't see anything on it just like the EVO.

AND ON EBAY THEY ARE SELLING NEW NEVER USED FOR $325-350 which is only $100 over cost if you have a upgrade.

People are dumping this phone at a very large rate and the price has sunk way faster then the EVO ever did.
[HTC EVO 3D] MichaelMcEntire:
I never say much on these forums ..but really, wtf is the point of this sh*t? You've posted almost the exact same post in two threads. Are you trying to make other people share your unhappiness with your phone? Are you hoping someone will change your mind? Are you hoping someone cares? Are you 12 years old? Christ..return your phone and move on to something you can be positive about.

mm that is the GS1 first off and 2nd the SGS2 is the top selling Android phone and not even out yet for the big 3 so who cares about the gs1 i have played with a SGS2 for a few minutes and it is light years better in terms of color and camera then the 3D and makes calls just like the 3D does and is already unlocked.so yeah BUH BYE

Should we go on about all the dead pixles the 3d has had? or maybe all the ober heating as well.And hey some people are on there 4th evo 3d already.Please you are making this phone out like it has no problems.

Most all of the problems you listed the 3D has them as well.Ive had mine for 32 days now i know the good and bad about it.Thankfully when you ask them to send you a return kit the day they send it to you is the day that is counted as you sending it back to them so i am still in my 30 day window.

And if they do not pan out i can always go back to the 3D and by then Alpha and HTC will be done playing the S-OFF game.
