7. Select Update using either Volume up or down

8. Press power to select ok
[Motorola Droid X2] rsswga:

thanks lot
[Motorola Droid X2] rsswga:
on my laptop the name was update.zip

but when i went into the sd card on the phone it was update.zip.zip

renamed if from the phone, works

rebooting now
[Motorola Droid X2] SwiftLegend:
Can you share the name of the zip and where you got it? I just downloaded one from a thread here, but it's named Blur_Version.1.2.148.MB870.Verizon.en.US.zip, and when I go into the About Phone menu on my phone, the System Version is 1.2.148.MB870.Verizon.en.US also. The Android Version is 2.2.2 though.
[Motorola Droid X2] bokajay@gmail.com:
Motorola names their updates by current build version that is being updated not after the update builds version.
[Motorola Droid X2] SwiftLegend:
Oh ok thanks. Just wanted to make sure. :)

"patching system files" right now. any idea on how long it takes? Kinda unsure every OTA/update i ever flashed on the NS/N1 was always quick

EDIT: done, first boot right now <3 god how i miss gingerbreadness, even if it is with ****ty UI

Now to wait for a 2.3.3 root method
[Motorola Droid X2] rsswga:
everybody got the links?

just came online

dam phone is like a new one
[Motorola Droid X2] GulMiguel:
Well, I thought I would wait for Moto, but things went south and I couldn't take it anymore. I went with the update that you gave and I've installed it successfully. I guess I'll truly have to wait now until someone talented finally gets root back on this version - not to mention we still have hope for an unlocked bootloader so that some real customization can begin to take place.

Thanks for everything y'all. It looks nice, we'll see how the speed is - not to mention it will be nice just if it stops rebooting on its own.
[G Tablet General] EL TEJANO:
Left my G-Tab on the bed, it got covered with some blankets & when I went to sit on the bed I inadvertently sat on my G-Tab. I opened up the case & everything looked fine. However when I powered it on, the damn screen was cracked. So now after much debating with myself as to whether I want to buy a replacement screen or a new tablet altogether, I decided to move away from android & buy me an EXOPC Windows 7 tablet. That being said I'll be parting with my G-Tab for a $100 to whoever wants it. The first to make the offer can have it, just send me a pm.

P.S. I would like to point out that the $100 does not include shipping.
[G Tablet General] EL TEJANO:
y2k-inc has made me an offer. Thanks y2k-inc.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Black Droid:
So I said screw it, and decided to use my clip. I hooked everything up correctly, but nothing is happening....

I boot up to the bootloader screen, wait ten seconds, and nothing happens.

What am I missing?

I made sure I wasn't using a dead 9v battery, So I replaced it with another one. Still no luck. There are 2 Flex PCB's included, and I'm only using one, is that correct? Also, this is one that came preloaded with an unlock credit, so I have not hooked the clip up to the computer. There is no means of doing so anyway(it didn't come with a usb connecter).

Hopefully its something simple. Take a look at the picture I have attached. I think its hooked up right...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
if nothing is happening in bootloader is has nothing to do with anything besides the gold card.. you don't mention anything of one, did you make it?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
and most have a mini usb cord to connect to computer if u dont u need to get that cord to make the gold card...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Black Droid:
It is a payG, pay as you go. Says it comes preloaded with 1 credit, so It shouldn't need hooked up to the computer.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
I'm telling you, you are wrong, if you want it to work, then take my instructions, if not then don't idk. but If you want it to work, make a goldcard.

this is how: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEpD3uC9V2g&feature=related
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Black Droid:
So your saying that this a**hole sold me this xtc clip without giving me a cable I needed??? It doesn't disclose in the description that you need to hook it up to a pc. And if you needed to, why wouldn't it include the cable to do so. That's my question. Not saying your suggestion isn't correct, but im wondering why i need to buy an extra cable to do this...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jcase:
You need a mini usb cable, its a standard item, costs maybe $2. It does not come with the unit. The instructions explain the process. I don't see how the seller is an ahole.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
completely agree, you shouldn't be calling someone else out due to your lack of research. and doesn't someone have a backberry those fit, i have like 4 mini usb cables laying around. wish I could help ya out.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
I have one. Bring the clip over... I need root too!!!! :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] times_infinity:
Also the sim flex cable is in wrong. You have to thread the small end through the sim slot. As its supposed to sit on the pins like an actual simcard would. So you have it in backwards.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] TB13:
+1 I did the same thing. Just put the sim flex thing in the other way and you will be good to go.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Black Droid:
Tried everything, even got a hold of a mini usb cable and still nothing. The unit doesn't even power up. The led on the clip itself does not light up no matter what combo I use. I think I got a defective device :(
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
if no led with battery or usb.. bad unit... sorry bro
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] lilshooter:
I know it sounds ridiculous but sometimes you get a bad battery just lick it and see if you get a tingling on your tounge
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Black Droid:
That's what I'm thinking :(

Sent from my unrootable ass incredible 2 :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Stam2000:
Any luck with your clip? I didn't get mine yet but I ordered from sonicpromo as well hopefully its not busted.

[Acer Iconia A500] KoolAidJunkie:
I bought the Aser Iconia A500 today, and its still running an old build of 1.104.XX..

I was wonder if I could download the Updates somewhere, and then install them on the Tablet.

The OTA Download is taking forever and has failed at 92% the first attempt (on second now, and only at 19% after 32 min).

I don't have "root" and would like to update manually without root if possible.

Thank you in advance for any help given..

[Acer Iconia A500] KoolAidJunkie:
Thank you for the reply JdgM3NT4L.

Do I have to install ALL of those one by one?
[Acer Iconia A500] JdgM3NT4L:
You know I would hope not. I would guess that you could go to the 1.4.1 or 1.4.7 straight from where you are. And then maybe the OTA to 3.1 will work. But I wouldn't take my word for it.

Hopefully someone that knows will stumble on this and help you with that part.
[Acer Iconia A500] KoolAidJunkie:
Oh, Okay. Well thank you for pointing me to the forum topic.

I just dont want to download the wrong thing and screw this tablet up. I just got the thing like an 3 hours ago.
[Acer Iconia A500] The Odom Project:
Hehe you really can't with any of the files on that thread lol, the worse you could do is use the wrong update and confuse the gps, making it think you are in europe or something lol. In other words, no worries :) once you get to 1.141.07, OTA should kick in: lets just say acer didn't get of to that hot of a start with the whole updating business lol.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Scary Guy:
There is a program called "Input Director" for computers that lets you use a keyboard/mouse on one and seamlessly move the mouse to another monitor which giving you control of that computer over the internet. It's sort of like a VNC client/server on steroids but instead of sending the display to you it sends your keyboard/mouse input to the remote system.

This is assuming that Android can even use a mouse, which I figure it can or at least should be able to. I know the Atrix can using the webtop which has the android phone in a window and the android can basically do anything.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Cupricreki:
I know for a fact that there is an option for mouse/keyboard inputs on an android platform.

I own a http://www.asus.com/Eee/Eee_Pad/Eee_Pad_Transformer_TF101/

and it has a keyboard and trackpad keyboard attachment, as well as USB ports that I have tested and reliable used with the tablet/keyboard combo.

An app based kvm switch will work with android, just need a kind developer to make it. I would buy that app in a heartbeat.

As per the OP, there is a alternative currently called iDisplay. It only extends your desktop to your android platform, no forwarding of mouse/keyboard inputs. I haven't personally tried it, but it sounds like the app is really hit or miss for a lot of people.

[Android Apps and Games] Ultro:
Very nice app. I go to a couple of websites to see device specs, separated by a lot of categories. All in one is always better, especially in an app. Something more I would like for this app is the ability to "favorite" devices and have them in a favorites list. Great app, nonetheless :D

Edit: Noticed the 1.5Beta 2 weeks later -_- Just updated and loving the favorite and compare features. Thanks again for this app :)
[Android Apps and Games] ShyamSasi:
Nice app Mate.... :)
[Android Apps and Games] demetriew:
Maybe rate them...

Nice work

From iphone to my first android phone, samsung infuse not rooted
[Android Apps and Games] 4silvertooth:
Not available.
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
gr8 idea indeed ;) , favorite feature will be very soon in the next update ... thx

thx m8

:) thanks

the app compatible with LG-P500 may be your network not accepting apps that send sms and phone calls .. try another sim if interested
[Android Apps and Games] 4silvertooth:
Why is your app using that.
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
to contact the advertiser (by calling or sending sms)
[Android Apps and Games] 4silvertooth:
So am I charged for that. Just asking I am still not able to find it on market.

Will try market enabler and see.
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
yes SMS and calls using your mobile network so you are charged for using it.
[Android Apps and Games] bluefisch200:
Do you have a database with these informations online? A Website with the same abilities like this app would be nice...
[Android Apps and Games] andslide:
I can't find it on market

Can someone mirror
[Android Apps and Games] Moronig:
It says on the market it's not compatible with my phone. I wonder why? What are the limitations for this app? Can you send me the apk so I can see test it and see why it's not compatible?
[Android Apps and Games] indesisiv:
I get the same on mine. SE Xperia X10 on Gingerbread.
[Android Apps and Games] fifarunnerr:
I think it's better to remove the SMS/call functionality from your application, because there are a lot of people(including me) not installing the application because of those permissions.

If you use this:

startActivity(new Intent(ACTION_DIAL, Uri.parse("tel:6365551212")));

With this you don't need the permission to make calls, and the dialer will be started with the phone number pre-loaded, so the user only needs to press the Call button.

And for sending SMS messages you can use this guide, which also uses intents.

Then you don't need SMS/call permissions, but the user can still call/text when he needs in your application.
[Android Apps and Games] LiquidSolstice:
This is simply astonishing. Great work. Although I have an Evo 3D and won't be moving from it at any time soon, I know a few Hero owners who could do with this App to see what they should upgrade to.
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
i'm afraid not , i use own database but i'm intending to do Windows Application with the same features later on

https://market.android.com/details?id=K0.K.Adroit

your device is supported (HTC G2 Vision) but may be your network operator doesn't allow the application's that send SMS/Calls

so you may try other SIM to install and i will upload the apk file very soon

the app supports QVGA,WVGA,HVGA,QWVGA,qHD screen resolutions and android 1.6 to 3.2

what's your device model ?

that's a great idea indeed , but if i used "StartActivity" instead of using phone library for the SMS i think the user will be able to get the advertiser number , i will check it .. thx for suggestion :)

Xperia X10 is supported :( try to change other operator and install may it help

thx m8 , i'm using Samsung GS2 and also don't need to change it for now .. but i like to check everyday whats new about the devices and soon i will add (News, Devices Comparison, prices in some countries ,favorite list and many more features ) , i mean i wrote this app not only for ppl who wanna change their phones but also to tech. lovers and everyone interested about mobile phones and tablets

any more suggestions are much appreciated
[Android Apps and Games] indesisiv:
Can't change my operator unfortunately. :(

Will keep my eye on this though.
[Android Apps and Games] fifarunnerr:
Yes, the user will be able to see the advertisers number. But I think your sent SMS is in the SMS-app of the user, so he always will be able to see the advertisers number, although I'm not sure.
[Android Apps and Games] dannzeman:
Can you post the apk?

It doesn't show up in the Market on my phone. I can click a link that will open it in the Market but it doesn't give me the option to download it. And when I try installing through the Market on a pc it says it's not compatible with my device.
[Android Apps and Games] jonny68:
apk. please OP thanks
[Android Apps and Games] taknil:
requirementa

you might want to revise your requirements on the App in the Market, my HTC hero (HVGA, Android 2.3.5) is said not to be compatible. It doesn't look that heavy at all. I see a lot of posts about said "incompatibility" here. Post the APK in the forum, we're glad to test.
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
Download the APK file

but don't forget rating in the market :)
[Android Apps and Games] claus1953:
Working great on my SGS I9000T, thanks a lot.
[Android Apps and Games] indesisiv:
Installed it fine (even though it says it's incompatible) - although i have just been on to the market and it says it's compatible now :)

All works great, can't see any problems with it at all so far ... great job.
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
the SMS now sent directly from the app so i don't think its possible to know the number

anyway i'm thinking to use your idea and add contact by email

it's my pleasure :)

thanks for interesting
[Android Apps and Games] Tokl:
Cool app mate!

Great for a fast look into some device specs without whelming different sites :D

Maybe an nice feature for your app would be the ability to compare 2 (or 3?) devices against themselves :confused:

Im also not able to find your app in marked :eek: (unbranded device), but the apk here works just fine :)

Small fix for the HD2 Device:

Processor is an Snapdragon and not an Scorpion;)

Hi,

is there any reason why the Program do not react to the "Back" Key when in mainscreen of the app?

I ask because normally on android the back-key @ mainscreen exits the program, instead of menu -> exit (maybe an question box like "really whant to exit?" would be ok)

I know, just a very little issue :o

Greetz Tokl

[Android Apps and Games] Tokl:
Cool,

comparison is great!

But for me the window in comparision mode is smaller then the window in single view.

So not all information is shown (longer text is cutted).

Maybe this happens because on my rom HD2 i have an LCDdensity of 167 and not 240 ( android thinks its an bigger screen)

I would attach an screenshot but it seems its not possible to attach to xda directly from the android browser... tomorrow im on my pc, then i will do that.

Thanks and greetz Tokl

Greetz Tokl
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
thx

no need for screen shot , i didn't make comparison screen compatible with all resolutions yet it only work on 480x800(240)
[Android Apps and Games] Tokl:
Hi,

ok, then is clear why it looks strange ;-)

Btw: are there plans to make the custom search funktion with more entries?

For me is for example importand to filter devices with an card slot...

Greetz Tokl
[Android Apps and Games] .dredd.:
Congratulations!!!! Very good app... if you need help for later database update just PM me! I am not a programmer but maybe can help in other way.
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
gr8 idea and i will add "card slot" to custom search very soon also "Dual core"

thx dredd , now the database update about once a week with few devices so its easy for me .. the hard work in the database was at the beginning to add all this devices :)

i may need ur help soon .. if so i will contact u

any new suggestions are much appreciated
[Android Apps and Games] Tokl:
Thanks!

Not sure, but maybe for some people searching for the form factor could be important,

for example: tablet, slider, clam shell or barren...

But i think this.means it should be added for all devices so an lot of work to do?

Greetz Tokl
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
cool

but i'm worry about the screen sizes now too many controls . i don't wanna use scroll

but i will try to add it
[Android Apps and Games] Tokl:

[Android Apps and Games] DJBhardwaj:
Really very usefull :)

Sent via LG Optimus-One reloaded with devoid.franco
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
i think this problem becuse some mobile networks doesn't allow apps with SMS/CALL Permission

its removed in the incoming update
[Android Apps and Games] Tokl:
Hi,

not sure this is the problem, because i tried it with an different SIM card from another provider and had also no luck ( both i tried are full contracts, no prepaid).

lets see what next version says ;)

Greetz Tokl
[Android Apps and Games] Tokl:
Found an small fix:

the htc shift has an 3.5 jack (i own one, great device)

gps is also possible, but only with an custom rom (not with stock).

btw: are there plans for landscape?

Greetz Tokl
[Android Apps and Games] K-Zero:
