[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafithegreat:
Well, apparently it seems that whenever the phone initiates a sync, the logo comes on, and when I go into Accounts & Sync, it gives the option to Cancel Sync, but when I go into each account, it says Sync Now, as if they've finished syncing, or haven't synced at all..

WTF :huh:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafithegreat:
Bump....?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saad1:
I have same Rom no problems here ...

try looking for animated sync icon in Settings>Accounts and Sync to find out whats syncing.. Other thing you can do is to delete accounts and add them again... might solve the problem.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hpdinesh:
I am using Insertcoin 1.1.1. which also has this problem.. When I go to Settings -> accounts and Sync, nothing is synching but still I see the sync icon in the notification bar.. Only if I select cancel sync then it goes off..
[HD2 General] Ultrasone:
I switched from a Touch Pro to a Blackberry four months ago. Although its a great phone, I am constantly looking for new handsets, often after the “thrill of the new toy” wears out...HTC`s phones are great, IMO and although the S2 seems to be the most praised phone recently, I would never buy a Samsung (or anything else, for that matter). Except for another Blackberry :)) Strangely, the Sensation didn`t arouse my curiosity. Nor did the DHD. It felt too...cold. So, since I got no other 4.3 inch options (and since I`m low on cash) I thought about the HD2. It`s decently priced and I like the W7\Android boot option. My question is, will I be regreting this purchase ?

(made from“emotional” reasons-cause I like the phone a lot-and cause the TP was bought based on the same reasoning [but soon I had a love\hate relationship.Emphasis on hate, that`s why I switched to RIM] ) I keep reading about screen isssues and overheating\ hardware problems and I don`t want to make a bad decision. Should I get a native Android device or a NAND build will suffice ? I don`t want lag, that`s why I ran away from WM...Thank you ;)
[HD2 General] orangekid:
Here's the deal.

I would 100% recommend this phone. I have used RIM, iOS, Galaxy S, Sensation, Diamond... and for what you are talking about the HD2 would be perfect! But you have to learn how to mod the phone, stock you may not like it.

Know before you buy!

If it's amazon, make sure they will refund a defunct device. I would NOT buy ebay. If you use XDA market, make sure the seller is trustworthy. Ask for a youtube video if you have to. if you buy locally test the device before you buy!

1) do something processor intensive. Stream netflix or play some video. If it restarts or freezes, it is overheating, don't buy.

2) Take out the battery and ensure the white moisture indicator near the top area where the battery goes is white. If it's red, do not buy.

3) Turn on the screen, slide to unlock, turn off screen. Repeat 10 times or more. If you get where it will not slide to unlock at any point, do not buy, the digitizer or flex cord are failing.

Buy an HD2, but buy smart. It is an awesome device and even though I could afford a GS2 or Sensation and I actually put my HD2 up for sale sometimes, I keep coming back to it as my favorite device ever.
[HD2 General] Digital Zorro:
I can say that buying a secondhand HD2 isnt a bad move.

The HTC HD 2 din't disappoint me yet. I used the nand installation HTCHD2 Hyperdroid GBX v12, Gingerbread 2.3.3.

Everthing works and I havent encounter any app that didn't work yet.

Goodluck in finding your HD2, sometimes people already installled a working Android on it.

Many Thanks! :)

PS. i dont have an x8, but i want to test something.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockitOut11:

[EVO 4G General] jhoffy22:
Been out of the flashing business for awhile :) I need to get caught up with everything and get everything up to date.

I have seen like 4 or 5 scripts that you can flash before you root, what is the best one available?

How can I find out what my current recovery version is and update to the lastest? I have Amon_RA right now.
[EVO 4G General] jhoffy22:
Anyone? Calkulins?
[EVO 4G General] wmdunn:
I have used Calkulin's "Format All" ever since he released it ... never a hiccup. Also, if you will check your SD Card and look for the recovery image file, it should tell you which version you have. It will look something like "recovery-RA-supersonic-v2.3.img" ... which btw is the most current. You can also boot into recovery, and the version will be there.
[EVO 4G General] CCallahan:
One of the best ones is King's Format All.zip. Can get it from any of the King/eVoKings threads in development.

Just boot into recovery. Most AR recoveries show the version number upon loading. Version 2.3 works very good for about anything.
[EVO 4G General] KB112:
As said above check Recovery at bottom of screen. Load Amon Ra 2.3 if you don;t already have it. I like using CALKULIN'S Format All script. It will wipe everything, perfect if going to a different ROM. I tend to run it twice for good measure.
[EVO 4G General] jietzer:
I use VR_Superwipe , ive never had issues.
[EVO 4G General] quocamole:
open up the scripts in notepad and compare them. most are identical, almost word for word. most also comes from calk's format all.

if you use an ext partition, don't forget to wipe that manually.
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
If you have Amon Ra, you don't NEED a wiping script.

Just wipe everything in recovery, and it's fine.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] basia314:
Are tired of waiting for samsung to update us all to honeycomb haha! If so check out the spb 3d launcher it is great, very smooth screen transitions like honeycomb or touchwiz, it has an option that lets you turn all your panels into a spining circular tray with a true 3d look and feel. I would suggest you take a look at the many youtube videos that are out there. Also there is a experimental option included that creates true 3d on your device, require those 3d glasses to experience it. And yes it cost $15 but worth it!
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] the_bone_collector:
It is certainly good for eye candy and feels very smooth. But after using it for a day or so, you get bored with all the glitter and it slows down the tab within a few hours of use. It does also reduce the battery life a bit.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] basia314:
I hear you, hey I have a launcher for all occasions its a good departure from the norm.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] smali26:

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Declan79:
Even its worth to pay for it. I bought and using this awesome 3d both with my S2

Its different with the crack version(tried before i buy), the main problem when i using the cracked version with my froyo&ginger dxjpc it can not using the back button then we must to 'retype' the pass word to lainched again.

The original one is totally magnificent there is an option for seeing both in tablet or mobile mode of launcher:)

What does Honeycomb have to do with SPB Launcher?

Let me see, I think I know how to fix this:

Are tired of waiting for samsung to update us all to honeycomb haha! If so check out the ADW Launcher it is great, very smooth screen transitions like honeycomb or touchwiz, it has an option that lets you turn all your panels into a spining circular tray with a true 3d look and feel. I would suggest you take a look at the many youtube videos that are out there. Also there is nothing experimental about it. And yes it cost $0 but worth it!

Was not really comparing honeycomb directly with spd 3d, but I hear what you are saying.

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jazzcrab:
I uninstalled it from my Tab; it was mostly eye candy. The Go Launcher works better for me. However, there are some widgets in the spb shell that i really liked! I wished i could use these in Go Launcher.

Jazzy
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] gwbard:
Agreed -- the birthday widget was quite cool, but not enough to part with my beloved Go Launcher :D
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] dio62000:
It's very cool and very fast. But there are a few things I would like to see changed:

- I can't change the size of the widgets. For instance, I can't put the Sense Analogue Clock in the middle of the screen

- I can't put a widget or quick link on more pages, just on one

- I can't put bookmarks directly on a screen, just through the bookmark widget.

- you can add only 3 different locations to the globe/world time widget

Or maybe I haven't found out yet how to do that?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] VDub2174:
I bought SPB for my Photon and recently installed it on my Sprint Tab and really like it on there!! I like it much better than ADW Launcher.

This thread says you have to flash back to 3.0.A.2.184 Generic UK and perform OTA. Is it possible to flash to 3.0.A.2.181 Global Generic and perform OTA as well?

What is the difference between Generic UK and Global Generic?

Thanks

no you can't because i don't think ota update for .368 in global generic is available now. as far as i know. only hk/uk version have ota update.

as for the difference... i think its the amount of bloatware that differs. Not much difference i think. Not that sure=)

What you may want to do when you have time is wipe everything and restore the nandroid backup you just made to confirm it made a good backup. It almost always does but I have gotten an occasional MD5 mismatch. It is highly unlikely but it is good to know you have a solid backup to rely on

Got the new updated beta of WiFi Tether, disturb3d1 made me aware it had come out.

This version gave me working 3G/4G tether. For anyone having trouble, pick the Evo3D profile, then put a checkmark for "routing fix".

In my short time testing, I found that 3G was very slow unless I checked "MSS clamping", while 4G might have been slightly snappier with it left off, but I still had very fast speeds whether it was on or off. 3G performance wasn't that great, and I'm on an Airvana at home testing this. Still, working tether, and I'm on the stock rooted 2.3.4

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] sven.cnrd:
Hey everybody,

I was bored and created an Emulator skin for our Galaxy3:

It supports portrait and landscape mode (remember: you can switch by CTRL+F11).

However, I have not figured out how to use a different control layout for landscape mode yet. Don't know if it's even possible, I didn't find any Emulator that implements it. Thats the reason why the controls stay in portrait mode even when your switching to landscape.

In portrait mode the buttons are just where they are on the real phone. I didn't add additional keys (as you can see).

Display size and density are like on the real I5800.

If you want to test it, you can download it here:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16413396/I5800_emulator_skin.zip
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] brajesh.sharma87:

btw, is there any way that i can make an avd that's exact like i5800 and root it in emulator only. I m very keen to do that. I have something like that for G1 but it's android version 1.6.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] sven.cnrd:
I also thought about that. I'm not really into porting, but I guess it would be very hard and time-consuming to port the touchwiz framework to the hardware that is emulated here.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mssmison:
Is there a reliable way to split the initramfs out of the zImage, make adjustments and re-combine it with the kernel? I know on the i9000 series there was a script that could do this, and I've found a script for extracting just the initramfs but nothing to put it back together..
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jocala:
You have to recompile the kernel. In the .config file there's a variable you change to point it to your modified rootfs so the kernel compile can include it.

CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="/path/to/rootfs"

(For Sorint you make the changes in p1_defconfig)

BTW, I'm in need of a stock Sprint EF17 zImage. If you have one, I'd appreciate a copy!

Multitouch is avaiable for our galaxy spica but why not for our gt 540? in this video a mod that calculates the coordinates for all applications. Incredible!

The spica uses a capacitive screen that is capable with multitouch, the GT540 has a resistive screen, which is incapable of full multitouch.

Resistives can only detect one point and it mostly dependent on pressure (so it can work on anything solid). Capacitive work only with living objects and specialized styluses.
