So you played with the phone, rooted it, played with it some more and then got mad that you had the bad screen...that doesn't really make sense. It can't be THAT bad if you didn't notice it while you were modding your phone.

Ok guys a friend of mine has a Nokia C7-00.1 with the Symbian OS. I was wondering if it was possible to root this phone and put a version of Android on it? Ive been searching everywhere and have found nothing.

One more question. I have supposedly put the legit version of Gingerbread 2.3.3 on my htc G2 that i found on this site and i was just wondering if its any different than the version that was recently updated my tmobile and if i should uninstall the version i currently have that I acquired and in turn allow tmobile to update the phone itself...

The first question is more important because symbian is wack and his phones specs seems like it could easily run android. Please lmk what the deal is DEVS

Thank You,

Hey just got a G2X from ebay.

Everythings great, except there is a missing piece of metal on the back near the top where the camera is.

Is there an easy way to fix this?

Let me know, thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] hisham027:
A picture would help
[LG Optimus 2x] abccg:
Here's a pic.

See the missing piece? I know its not a big deal, but the phone is for someone else, and it was bugging them.
[LG Optimus 2x] torespen:
i think its supposed to be a piece of clear plastic there.. at least on my phone..

Dont know where to get a replacement thou.. sorry..

EDIT: found one here, but expensive.. sure you can find somewhere else..search for optimus 2x battery cover :)

No it's not, the previous owner has popped the clear bit of plastic off, probably to improve the camera.

Edit: Like what Shadowman says.
[HTC EVO 3D] hypersonicx:
Has anyone been able to encode there own MKV 3D movies to MP4 and then have the Gallery App see the movie as a 3D video file?

I notice some 3D MP4s from YouTube ripped to the phone are automatically tagged as 3D so soon as the video is opened its in 3D and also has the Cube in the corner to change from 2D and 3D.

Question is how can we add that tag information to our own MP4 files so the gallery see the video as 3D instead of having to switch it manually. Itll also sort it under the 3D category in the gallery if the file is recognized as 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
I've looked into this and haven't found a way to tag to videos as 3d. I looked into reencoding them as well with the proper tags. Haven't found any program that allows you to change the Meta tag or the files. Hopefully someone has found an answer.

We Are D3VO!

[HTC EVO 3D] cetindk:
I need to know this as well. Still no luck people?
[HTC EVO 3D] ext109:
How?
[HTC EVO 3D] cetindk:
Ok here's how:

1)Download Handbrake for free.

2)Add your 3D video in the program.

3)Select EVO 3D option from the menu on right.

4)Click "advanced"

5)In the advanced settings, there are some unusual things written at the bottom.

Add "frame-packing=3:" at the beggining of that unusual crap.

It should be like this:

"frame-packing=3:level=30:cabac..."

Click start button and wait till the program encodes the video. And voila you have an Auto3D video ;)

Your welcome ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] V_Plum:
After few experiments I've discovered, that frame-packing key need to have value 3 if the source video is horizontal stereo-pair (side-by-side), but it also have to be 4 (frame-packing=4) if it's vertical stereopair (OverUnder). So, we CAN play vertical stereopair 3D videos on the Evo 3D! :cool:

Also, values 1 and 2 of this key are vertical and horizontal interlaced stereo-pictures and value 5 is frame-by-frame frame packing (one left, one right and so on), but I have no source videos of these types to try if the Evo 3D can play them.

[Q] Is there an EASY way to change font/background color on notification bar & menus?

Does anyone know of an easy way to change the font color of the notification bar &/or menus with a Droid Eris? Many of the themes I've sampled have certain aspects that are hard to read.

I've searched & searched and the only answer I could find, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=831715, has a lot of steps & requires editing many files. I don't want to risk screwing something up.

Is there a quick & dirty method, or is this it? I'm still learning!

Thanks in advance!
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MongooseHelix:
Using the UOT Kitchen is a fairly easy way to theme certain parts of a ROM the way you want.

UOT Kitchen - How To

It doesn't have options for everything though, so there are still things that you'll either need to find a morph to flash with zipthemer/metamorph or do manually.

One other tool you might want to look at is IDIOT(If Droids Insist On Themes). I haven't used it myself but it looks interesting.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] egofreak:
cool app, but, how does it work?

is it automating the flashing process?

is it changing the boot.ini to make my phone look for the other os install on the sd card?

am I flashing like mad going in between roms?

I find these questions need to be answered first before I install this.

the way I understand it is

1.main rom i flashed on my phone internal memory+(kernel)

(on SD)

{

rom2+(kernel)

rom3+(kernel)

rom4+(kernel)

rom5+(kernel)

}

and the app works by flashing an update.zip that changes where the phone looks to boot.

Am I correct in my understanding?

EDIT:

Useful answers

1. Will this also work if you have a froyo rom and gb rom that you are switching between?

Yes u can install whatever roms u want to whatever slots gb roms froyo roms whatever makes u happy they're all completely separate it's like having 5 different phones basically

**** remember your radios folks we have mr1 and mr2 some roms need separate radios so if you use the app and swap, you wont have any data untill you flash a new one through hboot.

2. Are you saying that when you flash between roms, the app will auto wipe data, cache and dalvik?

The app creates imgs into the slots when u install a fresh rom to a slot u should check all the check boxes to wipe data cache and system but it doesn't wipe the data cache and system on ur phone just the slots data cache and system the app doesn't touch any of ur data on ur phone just makes it's own in the sdcard

3. Let's say I have Chevy's Froyo rom and his SS GB rom on there. If I flash from GB to froyo, then back to GB. Will I have to restore apps?

No each slot is saved all of it's data stays there nothing is ever wiped again just like having five phones basically all of ur slots are completely separate all of ur data is separate and saved nothing is lost
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] guitarevan07:
it aint workin right for me. I tried doing an install from the sdcard and it is telling me i dont have enough space. but i have 1.37 gb free!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] YankInDaSouth:
This app is kick a**! I know one of the devs that made this app back from my D1 days (he was co-creator of one of the best D1 ROM's IMO) and he is an amazing dev! I was lucky enough to test this app and it is def worth the $$ if you're a person that can't decide on 1 ROM or you just like to try all the latest and greatest ROM's that drop.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] mkilla:
I just downloaded this, can't wait to set it up and try it, maybe ill give some aosp roms a try.

Thank you!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] dajogejr:
So my question is...does it run the ROM from the SD card?

If so...how is the speed/lag once the ROM is booted up?

I like the idea of having different ROMs to test, but I'm wondering how much time you'd be saving if it takes that long to install a ROM initially.

A lot of these Devs have nightlys or almost nightlys....

Very interesting...
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] scotty1223:
looks pretty retarded to me... right up there with rom manager. i cant wait to see how it effs things up for some beginner noobie :rolleyes:

not all roms work,you may get FCs during setup... yeah looks pretty amazing.

think ill stick to manually wiping and restoring my nandroids after i get them set up.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Gimpeh:
That's what has kept me from purchasing it. It's been in the market for a few days now but if the rom runs off the sdcard it could cause issues.

Was it one of the devs from Sourcery rom? That was the best rom IMO so that's why I ask.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] bobby janow:
On initial setup do you need to reinstall your current rom?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] sithdroid2187:
Yes, it runs from the sdcard. Lag is minimal if you let the kernel settle when you boot one up. On my thunderbolt I don't really notice any lag and i don't even overclock.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] ericsch333:
No but you have a button that says phone rom that is where it saves you current rom. then you will install a rom to one of the slots and then you can move between roms with out flashing. I have 2 roms saved cm7 and Miui works great don't forget to flash the gapps after you flash the rom or you will have to restore you backup from nadroid. also it seem to work great on asop but not on stock stuff. I have tried bamf it just hangs and you have to restart your app.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] ssethv:
I saw this on my twitter from droidpolice this morning, it sounds good but I just don't like the Idea of running a Rom from my SD. I will stick to nandroids until I hear more positive feedback from this app.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] shelooga:
Before I payout another 3$ for a toy that doesn't fly, shoot dates, or squirt water, I just need to know, can I use the 704 radio w all the roms? In other words, do I need to revert my main Tom, infused, back to Mr2 so I can run cm7, or can that be slot specific as well?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] orcsbane13:
Every rom slot uses nearly 5 gigs. It sets up a series of folders to match your stock internal memory.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] orcsbane13:
I had cm7 on my sdcard. The only slow aspect was installing the rom and apps. After that playing games and surfing the web was normal speeds. You'd never know it was running off the sdcard.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] orcsbane13:
You would still have to change radios manually for what's required of the rom. If you're using mr1 radio then just run cm7 1.2 mr1 version. You wont need to change radios then.

Problems...

I am having issue with this app and am emailed the developer to receive a refund as they state on their page....BUT I have yet to hear back.:mad:
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] bobby janow:
I find this whole idea fascinating. I'm really not that concerned about the small fee, (I never could figure out the rational of tipping a waitress $3 for bringing 2 drinks that she didn't even make, yet begrudging a dev who spent days/weeks/months) but I digress. When you boot to a diff rom via a slot, it requires a reboot right? So let's say I'm in Sense GB (will that work ok from an sdcard?) and I don't receive the VM notification cause that is borked still, when I boot back to CM7 will that noti pop up?

I have no prob trying this if it doesn't screw up my "perfect" cm installation.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] mtritsch:
I too am having a problem with it. I go to boot up from the SD card and it does not boot. I just see the htc screen and that's it. It never loads past that part. Is there anything else I can do. I did make a nandroid backup but cannot get into recovery mode to load it.

Edit: Somehow my computer recognized the phone and I was able to get to ADB and reboot into recovery and restore the image. Guess I will still be playing with this to get it working for my needs
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] rafaelvelasquez2:
I can't even download it. Every time I press [$2.99] it force closes the whole market.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] mtritsch:
Have you heard back from the developers? I emailed the developers and they got back with me in a couple of hours. Granted though I was not asking for a refund though as I am wanting to get this to work.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] icanhazdroid:
Works for me, two questions:

1. Does this restore the sdcard roms in their current state when switching between two?

2. Does anyone know how to get the G-apps to flash? I couldn't even boot into bootmanager after Cm, so I had to erase all the bootmanager data from my sdcard and reflash my phone rom.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] dakoop:
Hmm. Worth it?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] jimmydene84:
I've had the app since he released it...THIS IS A MUST HAVE APP!!

Just flash the gapps right over ur CM slot don't wipe anything and it will take (from gflam himself) it worked for me. I even installed the tiamat kernel on my CM slot and it worked too!

It does take about 20 min to load a ROM in a slot but after its done its super easy to switch back and fourth. I personally lobe it and don't know how I lived before it
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Gimpeh:
Has anyone been able to dual boot CM7 with a Sense rom?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] icanhazdroid:
Yes but do you flash the gapps in recovery? I tried that and it flashed it on my phone rom
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] icanhazdroid:
Yes but make sure sense is your phone rom, it'll lag on the sdcard
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] jimmydene84:
I didn't flash anything in recovery. I flashed gapps on the same slot I had CM7 on right over the top of it
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Gimpeh:
The app page on the market states that you can have TWO roms on your phone and four on the sdcard. If true I could have both CM7 and a sense rom on the phone without worry of lag.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] icanhazdroid:
Yeah but how? When you boot into CM you cant use the app without the market
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] icanhazdroid:
Hmm...i didnt see that, are you sure?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Gimpeh:
This is kinda of confusing. Not sure if it means keep one on your phone in addition to whatever is already on it.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Gimpeh:
I sent the dev a email asking if they planned to support flashing roms onto the emmc internal flash memory. That would be a bit faster than a sdcard.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] icanhazdroid:
Oh no lol, you keep the one on your phone, and it stays there, nothing happens to it. And then you boot the one on your sdcard. I tried it earlier, you cant have two on the phone.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] xstahsie:
Purchased one and lovin' it!

I have a ThunderBolt...and

I purchased one. Initially, I had issues understanding how to use it but using the tip feature, everything was cool after that. But by the time I figured out there was a tip section, I already wasted most of the day in trying to figure out how to install Market.

Since the ROMs reside on the microSD card, you cannot use clockworkmod to flash the "flashable" zip files (e.g. Google Apps package).

To get Market:

You have to be on your "phone ROM", download Google Apps flashable zip from ROM Manager (or web), load up BootManager, install a ROM to microSD (put a check on all 3 checkboxes as per the tip),

at the end of the installation, it'll ask you if you want to install update.zip (it doesn't have to be named "update".), of course you want to do it. Find the flashable zip (look in clockworkmod folder on microSD), select the zip file and then select the ROM that you want to apply this installation to.

So if you have Cyanogenmod 7 on ROM 1, just select it and it'll say something about already have ROM installed and it'll over write...don't worry, just proceed as it will ACTUALLY flash the flashable zip file (in our case, the Google Apps to get Market). But, DO NOT put a check on those 3 checkboxes--leave it uncheck.

Lastly, you may want to give it a cool name and you're done. When you boot into the microSD ROM, you will go through the initial setup and sign-in.

*phew* Man, I know what I wrote is mess. I'm feeling lazy. But I hope this helps anyone stuck or confused or think this app is a piece of crap.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] mmmboba:
awesome...now i dont have to choose between sense 3.0 and cm7 =D

works for Gingeritis 3D and CM7 for me
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] mtritsch:
Hmm never got the part about installing any zip file when I Install a Rom. If I had I would have never had such a problem with booting into CM7 and having no way to get back to my phone Rom.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] xstahsie:
Yeah, I HAD the same problem. Fortunately, I made a backup of my phone ROM says earlier and was able to restore it via ClockWorkMod.

Try this... go into clockworkmod recovery, choose install zip from sd card, and browse to find the update.zip file stored in the phone ROM folder inside of the BootManager folder. And flash it.

Another idea that came to mind...

Try to do a backup of your phone ROM inside of clockwork mod (yes, I am aware that the phone is only booting into CM7). After the backup is done, do a wipe (data, cache) and restore.

Lesson to learn from this is, after installing ANY ROM to SD, be sure to flash the zip file containing google Apps (Market, etc) FROM YOUR PHONE ROM via BootManager app (not in SD ROM). Failure to do this may result in being stuck with the SD ROM.

It does what it says, quite well. Just be sure to read the instructions first! Mmake sure you have gapps flashed before you boot into new ROM...I know OMFGB recommends downloading theirs through God Mode, but that won't work here.
