[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delimeat52:
I'm looking for a copy of the SC-02B Settings.apk. It's my understanding that's the model number for the Japanese Galaxy S. I'm in the States and just bought my wife a Sidekick 4G and am trying to translate the Settings.apk resources into Japanese for her to be able to easily read them. I'm hoping the Galaxy S is close so I can do a lot of copy / paste work, as the 2.2 emulator's resources are not even close and I'd have to manually translate every line.

I have the Sidekick Settings.apk decompiled already and hope to be able to provide the community with the final product if all works out well. If not, I'll have to Google translate it, and I'm not sure that will be very good at all.

Anyone got a copy they can post, please?:)
[HTC EVO 3D] thizzlemania91:
what works best to share files, i got some custom themes i made and want to share :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Bamba1260:
You can post a link with your dropbox, or upload to megadownload or something of the like.
[HTC EVO 3D] meowcats:
Most people use dropbox or mediafire
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
Dropbox for small files, in the hold down on the item(apk, song, etc) and press share And copy a link then you should have a link the you can post for anyone to download it

If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d :P
[HTC EVO 3D] e_town:
For the love of god don't use megaupload or similar. There are so many free alternatives out there. Megaupload and similar are annoying.

+1 for dropbox. Not sure what their data policy is, but as already noted for small files it is great, and easy, and convenient.

I'm not sure why i haven't seen anyone using it yet, but www.ge.tt is great for transferring large files (up to 2 GB) for free. Again, haven't read anything about their data policy, but their TOS doesn't specifiable call anything out. Best part about that service is you are given a link that is active as soon as you START the upload. People can start pulling it down as soon as you click upload. Really neat option.

Just my $0.02

Here is what I use now

You get free 5GB of space and its better than Dropbox in my opinion. Have fun.

edit: Please if you sign up for this 5gb of free storage, please use my referral or click the thanks.. either will do.
[HTC EVO 3D] thizzlemania91:
Wow 5gb that's awesome, I got a mediafire account and only got 250mb.

Hitting thanks button, thanks everyone :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zomgalama:
So I currently have Das BAMF 3.0 flashed onto my HTC Thunderbolt. It's working perfectly fine; but say I wasnt to flash another ROM, do I have to wipe my data and cache again via clockwork recovery? (yes I backed my phone up and backed up with titanium back up)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NavyKwonMA:
Yes or you will run into issues like me
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Absolute_Zero:
When switching between ROMs from different devs one should always wipe data/cache. Different devs sometimes use different packages for some of the base system apps and the data usually won't "mesh". If you don't wipe, you may not notice a problem initially...but a few day's later you'll be asking "Why does XXXX force close on me?"

Only time you shouldn't have to worry about wiping is if you're flashing nightlies or incremental versions of a rom where not much has changed unless the dev states otherwise in the release post.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fr3ddY303:
I find that Kernels are a but confusing.I would like to know of a good sense kernel for Wildfire rom.And where to download the Kernels.I have downloaded nFinity mc4 just don't know if it is a sense kernel or not as I'm putting together my own rom. Thanks for your time.

(Edit All Good Problem Solved.)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dethox:
Better stick with that kernel, or the one from cm7 nightly ( the one in my signature ), as HTC Kernels don't allow overclock. ( correct me if I'm wrong )
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shime74:
I am using kernel nFinity mc4 to HTC Wildfire Froyo 2.2.1 stock rom and use setCPU for OC to 768 MHz (480MHz min. and 691MHz max) Kernel good works.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fr3ddY303:
Thanks for your replies.

I have made the rom just been waiting for UOT Kitchen to come back on line.Which it now has.

For a bit of candy..

Dethox

CyanogenMod is a AOSP Based rom not Sense Based..
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dethox:
You are using the Kernel not the rom...

But nvm what I said, as that Kernel has some bugs ( cannot connect to wireless hotspots ) + battery drains quite fast.

Nevertheless kernel nFinity mc4 is the one I use now and its the best so far ( in my opinion ) It allows OC and seems quite easy on the battery.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Bierce22:
i was just wanting to say hi im coming from the sprint hero and hopefully if all goes well im getting the incredible 2 tomorrow morning witch is my dream phone pretty much lol.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mmaaddict78:
Welcome aboard. Hopefully s-off will come out for gingerbread soon.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Bierce22:
yea im hoping when i get it itll have 2.2 so i can just z4 it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zombiiez:
Z4 Won't work. You have to use alpharevx or revolutionary.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] riverstudd:
z4 root wouldnt work, id advise you to read on what exactly you would need to do to root.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Bierce22:
ive been around for awhile so i shouldnt have any problems rooting, i was just saying hi since ill be around these forums a lot more.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Golgotha theskull:
Yeah asking how to unbrick your phone. Look I understand being around the root process, o switched time roms twice a day on my fassy. This thing is a diffrent beast. So humble yourself and read because you need s-off. Then flash a recovery then root by flashing Su or installing a Rom. But welcome.

Ps I hate you for getting a froyo filled inc2. Jk lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Bierce22:
what the heck are you talking about whos asking help unbricking lmao
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
You said something about z4root...something this phone can't use. Then when someone told you that wouldn't work you got all snooty about you knowing what to do. They just don't want you to brick your phone bro.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] times_infinity:
If your Inc2 would happen to come with 2.2, the most you would get with s-on is temp-root, no custom recovery, no custom roms, no custom kernels, and you'll lose that temp-root after rebooting. Inorder to achieve permaroot you need s-off. Software s-off can be reversed btw. So run Z4 if you want. Most you'll get is temp-root and nothing further with at, if that at all.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Avelnan:
The Sprint Hero sucked massive monster ****.

Trust me, I was there.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
I had the Eris and loved it till I got this lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Avelnan:
I never believed it could be any slower. One thing I remember is faster data speeds than I get right now.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Bierce22:
okay lets not turn this into a bash contest all i was doing was saying hi sorry if i came off as snooty when i said ive been around for ahile all i was saying is i shouldnt have any trouble rooting when the time comes.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thekylebrody:
Mine came with 2.3.3. Out of the box
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
NO LONGER TAKING Q'S. HAVE MOVED TO X8 FORUM!! HI everyone. i have started this thread as i didnt know what to do when i first had to send my wildfire back for repairs. first download the attatched zip. unzip to desktop and make sure u have got the drivers for your bootloader interface already installed. to do this you will need just two things. the zip you have just downloaded and the HBOOT which i included inside the ziped file. once extracted run the java file named S-ON.jar and plug your phone in and turn on fastboot. once connected make sure you click on check connection. once you have done that you should see your serial number appear. okay your ready to go. look for the first tab and click on it. then click on HBOOT/SPL. locate the HBOOT file you inzipped with the S-ON tool and then click it. once done just click on flash HBOOT/SPL. once done you will see it says FLASH HBOOT/SPL/SUCCESS. thanks for takuing time to look at my GUIDE and i hope it helps you. just remember one thing only flash the new HBOOT after you have installed the RUU which is android 2.2.1 so you can root again. and remember you can also get S-OFF again the exact same way :)

BEFORE you attempt to flash new HBOOT to gain s-on. please click start on your pc then goto run then in the dialog box type CMD. then you will have a pop-up it will be your command promt. in the command promt type

C:\fastboot>fastboot oem mb 9C068490 1 30 then hit enter. then open the s-on tool and flash the new HBOOT. then it will flash without FAIL. sorry for not realising this earlyer. and happy flashing.
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
comment if you need the bootloader drivers and i will upload them if requested thanks again everyone. and i would like to thank the acctuall creator of the programme thanks again briliant work on all sides.
[Wildfire General] juni6111:
i wil try it my Wildfire
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
here are the bootloader interface drivers..

enjoy :) thank me if this method helped you in your Quest to gain s-on :) :D
[Wildfire General] Comfreak89:
Did it worked for someone? I need to S-ON my wildfire, because i want to sell it ;)

Edit: The WinRun.bat and LinuxRun.sh are wrong. They call the FastbootCommanderV.1.5.jar file, but they should call S-ON.jar :)

Question: What is eng hboot in your warning when the programm starts? I have the AlphaRev hboot 6.01.1002, will it work?
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
yesw i have done it on 5 diff wildfires i GUARENTEE it works mate hit me up on my thanks button :D
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
like i said this is not my programme i just found it very usefull to gain s-on. the only other way apart from this is to do it via the command promt on windows. which sucks as only a few people acctually know how to use this method. you dont need any of the linux stuff or win.bat. this method is for windows users only :)
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
For windows users only !!

this will only work on windows. wilol not work on linux. i am trying to get the programme to work on linux but to no avail. i will keep on trying but its just not capable of doing it. also please do NOT rename the HBOOT.NbO file if you do rename it then it will not flash and will not work.
[Wildfire General] Comfreak89:
i tried it, but when i will flash the hboot, i get this error:

Flashing "hboot" - PLEASE WAIT.

"hboot" flash FAILURE.

The device shows me: not roll back hboot version
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
DO NOT rename the file.

if you rename the file you will get a error. also make sure u have put your phone back to the stock RUU that is android 2.2.1 BEFORE you try this method
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
These are the RUU you need

go to this site and download the RUU that is used for your phone okay. go to this link and download the one for your phone. http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Buzz
[Wildfire General] Comfreak89:
i have done this. my phone has 2.2.1 stock and i did not rename the file.

I think, i cant flash the hboot, because the alpharevx hbootversion is higher than the stock hboot...i think i read it somewhere...
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
no thats wrong the other way it to push it to the phone using fastboot and windows command prompt. this is the only 2 ways of gaining s-on again. trust me i have done it on my wildfire and 5 others and worked 1st time everytime
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
i will be shortly taking a video of me using this programme to gain s-on then you will all be able to see it working. it will not be untill my partner gets home but asoon as its uploaded i will share the url and let you all see that this way works 100% it is maybe somthing you are doing wrong ???? have you unzipped it to a sub fol;der on your desktop ????? and did you run it as admin ?? and if yes to them both. did you 1.rename the HBOOT file ?? or 2. did you move it out of the unzipped folder ???/
[Wildfire General] Comfreak89:
i trust you, but it get an error xD

edit: yes...i am an informatic specialist..i should know, what i should do and not..:)
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
lol. i dont know what to suggest then. it is odd because it has work flawlessly everythime i have flashed HBOOT/SPL. hmm i dont know then. i have done this method over 15 times to my own wildfire just to make sure it work 100% and could be used by other people. it has worked with alpharevx HBOOT and revelutionarys HBOOT which are both 6.01.1002 so its really weird it never worked for you :S
[Wildfire General] Comfreak89:
Strange...

An idea: I have the hboot from alpharevx from a very early closed irc beta. maybe this hboot is in some way locked. Can i flash the hboot with revolutionary again and use your tool? maybe the revolutionary hboot is different to the early closed irc beta :/
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
aslong as you know what your doing yes. it is possible. if you can get the revelutionary HBOOT then it will flash. then you should be able to flash the s-on HBOOT no problem :P :D
[Wildfire General] Comfreak89:
revolutionary dont let me flash their hboot -.- they say, i already s-off, so no flash needed -.-

ah i see, you said "if i can get the revolutionary hboot"...yep, i dont think, i can get the hboot ;)

do you know the commands for flash the hboot manually?
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
do you know how to use command promt in windows ????
[Wildfire General] Comfreak89:
i am a it-specialist...sure :P
[Wildfire General] Paul1989:
go to this thread because i think this will be the 1 for you mate :) good luck with your quest to s-on :) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1160251
[Wildfire General] Comfreak89:
thank you, i will see...:)
[HTC EVO 3D] lyon21:
I am currently trying to learn how to modify a kernel. Unfortunately, I cannot find ANYTHING that explains any of the files in the kernel source. I would greatly appreciate if someone would fill me in or show me where I can find any information on the subject.

Thank you in advance!
[HTC EVO 3D] dirkyd3rk:
Google search is your best friend.

Compiling kernels from source isn't the hardest thing to do but cooking your own is a whole diff story. Heres a few suggestions!

You need to run a linux distro or run in a virtual box (if in windows or mac); I run ubuntu and Fedora.

Get familiar with github dude.

Learn linux basic commands.

Gbhil wrote this guide a while back so it will show outdated software but its pretty damn accurate. (just to give some insight)

http://forums.androidcentral.com/ht...how-build-your-own-kernel-package-source.html

I suggest following this guide:

Its for the EVO 4G so dont download the tar its telling you to DL, you need to get the EVO 3D kernel source.

http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-hacks/how-to-build-your-own-htc-evo-4g-android-kernel/

With a few variations

First clone the repository you want to build off of (Also, all of this needs to be done on a linux box or in a virtual machine running linux) You need to fork a repo from github of your fav kernel.

For example, to clone:

git clone git://github.com/insertkernelhere.git

cd insertkernelhere

Then you need a cross compiler for ARM, which is explained in the guide.

And the guide also explains menuconfig and building the kernel.

Kernels explained.

http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-all-things-root/278898-android-partitions-kernels-explained.html

You need to visit square one.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] thestraubulous:
I have a lot of contacts on my phone and want them all sync'd with google. Now, I could add them one by one but surely there is a better/faster/more efficient way to do this. I'm about to upgrade my Infused v1 to the new stable Infused v2 and I know I can export them and import them like I have in the past (just by using the built in function) but I would like them in the google format so I can sync them over the air.

Also, once they are in the google format will facebook be able to sync their pic's to the contacts? Cause there are only a handful that sync when I have over 100 that should have pics.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] marshal4him:
Export all contacts from phone to sd card. Next import from sd card and select google account as target. Finally, go to the contact view settings and show google contacts and uncheck view phone contacts. Done. I am awesome.

That was a sweet fix, thank you! Worked great, just want I needed.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dreuzel:
And in the meantime lose the contact details

gio user,

using cm7.2 for stability
[Samsung Infuse 4G] The Analog Kid:
Worked well

I followed these while logged into gmail account and watched my gmail account populate with all my phone contacts. Worked great. In gmail, merged all duplicates and then installed Contacts Optimizer from Google Play. That sorted out some of the dupilcates on my phone. Not perfect, but much better and now my contacts are backed up and I am ready to root... Will be clicking the Thanks for ya.
[Android Apps and Games] voip-now:
VoipNow - is an application for discount phone calls. Using the method of Call-Back, you do not have to pay a mobile operator for outgoing calls - all calls are incoming, and they are in most countries for free. To connect, you simply dial the number and VoipNow he will call you and your companion!

is not a clone betamaks and others

it does not sip client

-------------------------

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The work scheme of VoipNow implies that the client receives an incoming call to your phone. Since this incoming call is free, client pays only connection according on VoipNow rates.

The essence of services is as follows: Client to commit call must first send a request to the provider indicating the phone number on who wants to make a call. System will call back to call order person. Request from a client comes by sending a secure request via the Internet, so for the correct operation is necessary Internet connection (GPRS, EDGE or WiFi). Upon receiving a request, the operator makes a call back to the client. Having taken on my phone call, the customer hears a prompt to wait for the call.

HOW TO CALL?

When you register, you will immediately receive a $ 2 per account, so you can call friends just now, and appreciate quality and low cost of the call. This is especially true for long-distance and international calls - the price may be lower by several times, compared to conventional cellular phone!

You must install the latest version from Android Market.

Provide a telephone number, email and password.

Dial outbound number and wait for an incoming call.

Hi,

Congratulations for that fantastic work.

I ran this Nova Recovery and I selected "Wipe Data" option, to reset to default settings. Then I select the rebbot device option. (Later I wiil install the Nova Rom)

But now when on the boot device they stay on same black screen flashing the 4 below lights.:(

Can anyone help me?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Lol, when you wipe data it will take a bit more time to boot.
[LG Optimus Black] hap17:
I'm waiting for more than 15 minutes :(

Is the phone bricked?

As I can't access to any application, is there any way to enter in recovery menu?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
If you don't have Nova ROM and you can't boot directly into recovery and you're stuck in the boot whenever you power it on, then you'll have to flash a firmware.
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
If you haven't nova, you cannot directly boot to recovery. Two ways:

Remove the battery and try again. It will probably fix nothing and may be harmful.

Or go to the firmwares flashing tgread and use method 1 by modaco to reflash stock firmware and do from there.

No, I don't hava a Nova Rom (I have the original rom).

This will cause some problems since the recovery isn't ready for it.
