You can just download the new market apk. Then, you just install, it will update that way. There are several threads with the apk posted in the general section.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DustinBooyah:
...If you have trouble finding the market apk for some reason, you should be able to update it by simply using it. Browse for some games or tools or something for like 10-15 minutes, then when you leave and come back it should be updated

I've read that the Droid X has a panoramic setting in the camera. I don't see a similar setting in the X2. Anyone know how to take panoramic pictures w/ the X2?

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid X2] francoamerican5:
Once you open the camera application, just press the menu key and select picture modes. Panorama is the middle selection.
[Motorola Droid X2] h_10:
geezus. i'm an idiot. it was not on the standard scenes choices when you tapped on the screen in the camera. pressing menu never crossed my mind.

thanks.
[Motorola Droid X2] francoamerican5:
Don't feel bad, I've had the phone for over a month now and just discovered the panorama mode about a week ago :)
[KIN One and Two General] Marcellus1:
It seems a lot of people are using their smartphones to scan QR codes that are popping up all over the place lately. I got to thinking, what if you could take a photo, email it, and receive the link or message or whatever back by email?

So I did some searching, and it turns out there are a couple of services that will do this for you. One is snapmyinfo.com and the other is scanlife. I haven't tried the scanlife one yet, but snapmyinfo worked great. From what I've read, snapmyinfo just does QR codes, but scanlife may be able to do UPC's and other types of barcodes other than just QR codes.

Take a picture of a QR code and send the picture as an attachment to x@snpmy.com or scan@scanlife.com depending on which service you want to use. Sync your email again after sending and voila!

Ok, I've Made A Rom Named Espresso ROM For The Droid X. I'm Currently Making It For The Nexus One, Samsung Fascinate, And This Phone. My Plan Was To Get It To All The Galaxy S Varients, Nexus One, Samsung Nexus S, Samsung Droid Charge, HTC My Touch 4G, HTC Droid Incredible, Wildfire, HTC Hero, Original HTC Desire, HTC G2 (Desire Z) And Aria.

When Will Espresso ROM Be Released?

Later This Week.

(If You Search Over On The Droid X Forums, You'll Find My ROMs Including Espresso, & Doubleshot)

If You Want To Test, Please Comment Or Just PM Me.

about xperia mini pro handling video calls etc.

Well i've tried skype 2.1 and still can't manage to make it work :( though it would work like 1 way video call but it still doesn't

Any ideas ?

now we must test it....

only normal calls work
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] xsyrhies17:
It refers to the new mini pro not our mini pro, it only supports the new one.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Kisler:
I think Skype does not support video call because the phone does not have front camera

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyBravo1000:
I need help lads.

My Desire is suffering from the rebooting problem, so I thought I'd get it back to stock condition and get it fixed before the warranty runs out.

Ok, I need to unroot and restore the stock ROM on my HTC Desire.

I'm using an RUU from Shipped ROMs.It works fine until it gets to the radio part. The radio part is what is failing for some reason.

I get a message saying the radio part fails, but it's the same radio that is currently on my phone.

After I get the message about it failing, I get this come up on the white screen of the HBoot menu when I unplug the device.

For reference, this is what I get after the failed attempt.

Is this fixable?

Can it be solved by sending it off to HTC? I am still within the two year warranty period.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4rm45:
Well if they replace whole motherboard in repair, broken radio doesn't matter. Propably it's a software problem and it will be overwritten. Of course if you want to try fixing the radio before getting it to recovery, you can root, s-off and try to flash another radio on fastboot.

So SamFirmware stated via twitter that there will be no releases for now =/

Cant believe sammy will stick to that buggy KG5/6/7

"SamFirmware SamFirmware

There are no new I9000 and I9100 roms end this month new I9003!"

"SamFirmware SamFirmware

There are no new I9000 and I9100 at the moment. By end this month we will release a new I9003 rom."
[Galaxy S II General] B3311:
Aren't you guys in Brazil one of the few who got kg5/6/7 officially?

I think only Poland in Europe has it (can't remember which) so far.

I like (the unofficial) KG6, not in any rush for official release, except for my country of residence's language keyboard.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
I like that attitude by Samsung and appreciate it, also hope they will take their time and come back with a stable version. I hate this too fast updates. They basically do nothing but keep us waiting for another update.

How about releasing something for us Canadians on UGKG2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Galaxy S II General] EarlZ:
This is good news if they stop the updates and just release a single update every other month or so to really fix things instead of incremental updates, this is why I havent even started to customize the looks on my phone.

Might be if Samfirmware was actually Samsung .

Time will tell H1 2 34 45 6

Even \Samsung have posted in the past xxx will be out this month two months later and xxx is still not released .

automatic enabling of smartass

type this in your install-recovery.sh

insmod /system/lib/modules/smartass.ko

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] viulian:
I'm sorry, I don't have experience in creating .zips to be flashed ... anyway - is faster to copy manually and you don't need to reboot the phone or anything.

Once I finish it (to get it to be configurable over sysfs) then I will investigate this possibility of flashing.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] chiefy009:
Cant I do it through root explorer?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] creage:
Seems that placing these lines directly in install-recovery.sh doesn't work. But placing them into additional script in /etc/init.d/98-smartass and adding 98-smartass to the install-recovery.sh works fine. Even after reboot you still have smartass governor.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Karlson2k:
Looks like CPU frequency isn't changing.

May be the problem is in acpuclock.o (compiled for Xperia Arc but not for Xperia X10???.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] viulian:
It does not affect wolfbreak's tweaks. Those will reset the CPU state after each reboot. So you can try the governor, and if you don't like it, just reboot and old settings go back. In case you decide to keep the governor longer, then yes, the startup scripts need to be modified (not only to activate it, but to insert the module also). But we're not there yet :)

How do you expect it to change ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mohdameer:
whats the point of this? as per the cpuspy i think the same problem persist. only 245 and 998 mhz freq's are used.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] viulian:
I think this is a problem with the phone speed. Imagine this scenario:

a) user starts an application, CPU is in deep sleep (or maybe idleing at 245Mhz). Usage goes to 100%

b) application does not finish loading in the very short time (milliseconds) specified for the ramp up period. CPU is still at 100% and thus frequency goes one step higher (384Mhz)

c) application still did not finish loading again, CPU goes again one step higher.

By the time the application finishes (and they are Java, not native so imagine the work needed to load them) CPU gets to max frequency. If it would spend longer time at intermediate steps, you would describe the phone interaction as "slow".

Another advantage, you can put a max limit on the CPU speed on screen off mode (sleep mode).

For more information please check the governor developer opinion: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=730471.

This module is a a different one compared to the defaults given by Sony (ondemand and performance).

Later edit:

With the new .ko I've just posted, CPY Spy also reports intermediate frequencies as used. I will update the CPUSpy screenshot tomorrow after a day of running with the governor.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Wolfbreak:

From Acer Malaysia Facebook page:

Dear Fans, due to some policy changes from Google where Acer has to comply, the A500 Honeycomb 3.2 OTA update will be postponed to 25th August, we apologize for the disappointments and upsets but we will be bringing the final and stable update to all of our A500 fans asap! Please be patient guys :)

Very interesting considering that Xoom and the Transformer are getting 3.2 updates already (and are continuing to get them). I do appreciate that Acer is at least updating us compared to our last udpate (3.1) which Acer did not give straight answers about. I'm not trying to start a controversy here but I wonder what's really going on with this update delay?
[Acer Iconia A500] Johnny0906:
F-ing typical...
[Acer Iconia A500] nexgenasian:
I'm guessing they're trying to Sync up all OTAs for every region. The 25th sounds reasonable for the 2 week delay; like how HC3.1 was initially released June 21, and when it finally hit all markets, July 4 here in the US.
[Acer Iconia A500] Diablo67:
We got our 3.2 update about 2 and a half weeks ago.It will be nice to see 3.2 update from acer finally,but it did'nt bring many changes to asus,except the ability to zoom in on non tablet campatible apps.It did'nt fix the internet problem or video.I also noticed it said milaysia,so it will be longer for us i guess.
[Acer Iconia A500] D_Steve595:
Coming from an American Samsung phone, this seems like an early release rather than a delay :P
[Acer Iconia A500] nexgenasian:
Can you output ton 1080p through HDMI out of your Eee Transformer? I'm hoping 3.2 for acer will let your output to 1080p, currently its only doing 720p.

Also your acer, did you happen to make a backup before all the custom roms? Like just after rooting and clockworkmod? -__- i'm in need to get a backup for a a500 USA a500. Super file manager deleted my whole micro SD card with my backup.
[Acer Iconia A500] Diablo67:
Unfortunately i didnt,sorry.
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:

the iconia can output 1080p already.

and everyone before blaming ACER

Dear Fans, due to some policy changes from Google where Acer has to comply,
[Acer Iconia A500] Ragnorok64:
How long did it take for there to be an app to root 3.1, after it was released?
[Acer Iconia A500] panda.bear:
You can already output 1080p with the current 3.1 build from Acer.
[Acer Iconia A500] officetally:
This haha..
[Acer Iconia A500] muqali:
But what were the policy changes and was it really a change or a "hey you're ****ing up fix it before we yank the license" type thing? Given the similarity of the hardware, what was Acer doing differently than Asus or Motorola that they have to postpone the release? There are so many things I can think of that it makes my head spin.

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Acer worse than I hate any other corporation(The FSF and similar entities being ones I'd actually trust). I just wonder is all.
[Acer Iconia A500] dottat:

[Acer Iconia A500] kevintstephens:
I used the same app that I used to root 3.0 to root 3.1.
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
Acer have a contract with Google to release the devices with Android.

so if Google change policies Acer have to follow that... and cannot violate the contract...

look far more than your devices please.

many things have to be taken in consideration.

so far I do not care anything about 3.2 ... what really that will give to me... nothing more, nothing much...

maybe the 4.0 will...

why people want more and more and more and more and more... and when they got what they want, they want more and more and more and more again...

Patience is mere virtue...

GIVE LESS MONEY TO GOOGLE WHEN THEY DO THE CONTRACT ? as an answer totally reliable :D
[Acer Iconia A500] EvoTastic:
I'm perfectly content with 3.1. Some people just NEED to have the new because they feel it's their right. Be thankful that they are pushing to get 3.2 out as quick as they can.
