Really? The stock lockscreen only pops-up upon reboot, at least in my device. We are all using an Arc here right?

Widgetlocker can't help

Widgetlocker can't help me. It can't stop SE lock screen or pin lock.

I am whit Xperia Neo Android 2.3.3 and Exchange.

[Xperia Arc General] punkmonkey1984:
Still popping up.

Tried battery indicator pro no luck.

I hate this stupid lockscreen.

[Xperia Arc General] slayer_boxer:
Can't disable the default lock screen.
[Xperia Arc General] 3x4d:
No PIN lock and exchange - email

Everything is so simple. Why nobody don't tell my. :mad:

1 - remove all Accounts from Email dependent with MS Exchange.

2 - from Settings/Location&security/Select device administrators, remove email (exchange)

3 - from Settings/Location&security/set up screen lock, select none ( no pin, no pattern, no .....)

4 - then install "Enhanced Email" from market and use it instead of detault email client for all accounts.

Enjoy !?! :D

Yes. You are right, but is not necessary to enter the PIN, every time when I UNLOCK the screen.

Bug maybe?

[Xperia Arc General] J Webb:
Does it only happen when the screen has been off for quite some time? It might have to do with the phone being in a deep sleep state, so when you press a button to wake it up it just takes a moment to realise it should be going to an alternative lock screen so it displays the SE lockscreen momentarily.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] cjsofliiy:
Is it possible for anyone to create a landscape keyboard for the touch screen ?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Jax184:
I believe some of the custom ROMs already have one, at the very least. Poke through the dev forum and see if you can find what you're looking for.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
There is no current ROM that has this, it is yet to be seen if this is possible, as it wasn't built in by Samsung. They thought that there was no good way to have a landscape screen keyboard on our phones. So it would take a large amount of integration and work. Anything's possible, but as of now, it doesn't exist and is very far away if anyone is working on it.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] jahnbodah:
last time I tried gokeyboard it worked in landscape. but it kept trying to translate my english into chinese so I uninstalled... but try this https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jb.gokeyboard&hl=en

well, it used to work. you can see here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=15247397#post15247397 I was using it around the first of july. I tried it again today and I could not get it into landscape mode.

So, it USED to work, but apparently no longer does. Darn GO dev team for their frequent updates. (I think all go apps are some of the best btw, great/frequent updates)

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] chaostic_2k1:
Does the Galaxy S have the swype or regular virtual keyboard with landscape mode? If so, couldn't it work on the sidekick? If anyone would email me those keyboard apks, I'd be a guinea pig for that.

Ok first u download the keyboard and after it downloads clik on it and install it after its done installing go to menu then settings and click locale and text and check htc ime then long click on a text box and it will say input mode then click htc ime again and it will popup good luck with it
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] cjsofliiy:
Thanks its great
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] teekay0:
hmmm yeah, if i install or push to /system/app/... it keeps FC... but i honestly dont see a need for a landscape kb, defeats the purpose of the sidekick...
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Gplayjay:
U arent supposed to push to system/app u just install like u would any other .apk file and it works good for times wen u dont wantto slide the keyboard out options are always good u know
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] teekay0:
that's the only reason why I had said that :-) but even when I removed and installed as normal, would still FC on me.

haha, ehh I guess I never bothered to flip it up/out…used to rock the sidekick II, loved that fone :-)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fergie716:
you can try apps like Handcent or Go SMS. I prefer the latter. Also, I'm not sure, but is there an option in the SMS app to split msgs over 160 characters? I know CM7 and MIUI have this option, not sure about stock
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fergie716:

It's an inverted MMS.apk w/auto split option and works if you are on a stock ROM and are rooted

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bakin8r:
I am running an app on my Evo called cadpage. The program works great except the wigdet seems to freeze quit frequently. It does seem to reset itself after force closing cadpage and restarting the phone. I have contacted the developer and they have told me that it has been an issue for some but not all users. I have checked and made sure that it is on my ignore list for my task killer. Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this issue?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moekyle:
widget troubleshooting

bakin8r,

As one of the developers of cadpage I feel your pain. I am having the same issue on my Evo and I wrote most of the widget code. It is on my short list of things to flush out and fix but has been a bit difficult as it doesn't happen on my emulators and I haven't had time to debug the actual phone. This will get resolved it's just a priority vs resources issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
Can you start adding screen shots to your roms.. I was actually asked by a very very respected person on this fourms why am i the only dev on the sgs4g fourm that litterly does pictures of the roms but others do not. * im not saying who it is but you would be shocked* also to help people get what there getting it does help they have an understanding of whats in the rom just fyi ty!

[Samsung Mesmerize] mainethoughts:
I've been running CM7 for a month or so and I started having some stability problems. So I decided to try DarkyRom.

I did everything like normal (used heimdall).

Upon boot it had an error.

Failed to mount /efs while applying multi-csc.

I'm dead in the water. I tried to flash back to stock. I get an error and thrown into samsung recovery. I can reboot from that and I boot to the gui with no radio. Phone info says "Unknown" Hardware and Baseband Version.

No. I did not backup any EFS (news to me). I do have access to the same model phone, my son has one he just uses as a fancy MP3 player (no phone/data plan).

Is there anything I can do? I did use the ADB Shell and ran "mount" to see if the EFS was mounted. It was a negative...

[Samsung Mesmerize] mainethoughts:
Could this have something to do with the file system?

I don't have CWM working. I'm going to work on that. Right now I juast have Samsung Rec. Utils. The error that is in there is:

E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (Invalid argument)
[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
First off,are you even on the right forum? Darky rom isn't built for this phone so it's not going to work.
[Samsung Mesmerize] mainethoughts:
Ugh...an unfortunate response. Yes...I'm on the right forum.
[Samsung Mesmerize] mainethoughts:
I did make a CWM backup from a couple weeks ago. Not sure if that helps.
[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
Them why are you flashing roms from other forums/phones? Use odin and check repartition.
[Samsung Mesmerize] mainethoughts:
*hangs head* Admonishment accepted. I really don't know what I was thinking.

Here is my progress. I tried using Odin to just Re-partition. No go.

<ID:0/003> Can't open the specified file. (Line: 1455)

So then I downloaded stock EC10 (That was factory on my phone). I flashed that via Odin with "Success".

The same error as initially posted was on the phone. I rebooted from the stock recovery console and I was able to boot. 3g works. The hardware and baseband are now accurate. I'm getting a lot of force closes however. The twlauncher is constantly crashing.

So now the phone is semi-functional but there are still errors. (I was getting more forces than normal in CM7 that caused me to dive into this process in the first place).

I could be way off base but I'm thinking that possibly there is corruption (or wrong file system?) problems with the internal SD (I did format the External SD at the start of this).

I appreciate your help. Any suggestions from here?

[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
Use the full odin restore package and make sure you use pit and pda files. Repartition must be checked. Wiping data might be a good idea as well.

Thank you much. Is it possible that I could have a faulty internal SD? I had suddenly started getting a lot of force closes in CM7. I guess I'm just wondering if I'm fighting two separate issues here. (My bonehead move vs. a real problem)

-MT
[Samsung Mesmerize] mainethoughts:
I think I'm FIXED!

I was finally (I don't know how) able to get Odin to Flash CWM 4 (The Blue one needed to install CM7).

I got ZERO errors in CWM. So I took the opportunity to clear caches, format data...I got destructive.

I then installed the CM7 Rom. -SUCCESS

Installed GAPPS - SUCCESS

I hope everything is OK at this point. I know CM7 is booting in about 20 seconds opposed to 5 minutes like it was before I decided to try to morph my phone into an I9000.

I actually saw the black screen with the little phone to PC icons at one point tonight. I think I came real close....

Thanks for your help!

PS: CONFIRMED mmcblk0p1 is mounted! (EFS, etc) PHEW!

[HTC Incredible S] patrick92260:
Hey I just want to make sure of a few things before I try this... I saw the thread below but it doesn't saying anything about being able to downgrade later on. I have a Bell incS with the stock 2.3.3 version 2.28.666.3. My phone is not rooted or S-Off but I have made a gold card and was going to flash the WWE RUU 2.30.405.1 to get rid of the bloat. Is it as simple as that? Would it be possible to downgrade back to the original Bell 2.28.666.3 RUU later if I needed warranty with the gold card or not? Also any issues to worry about with debranding like radio/wifi problems or anything else? Thanks
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
If you don't have S-OFF on your BM IncS, then you won't be able to flash the WWE 2.30.405.1 RUU because that ROM is for the S710E model (model id PG321300) and the BM Incs is a S710A model (model id PG321200) and it will fail with 'wrong model id' error.

If you go ahead and S-OFF, then you can take the WWE 2.30.405.1 RUU and extract the ROM.zip and modify the android-info.txt file in the ROM.zip to change the model id. After that process, you would copy the modified ROM.zip file to the root of your SD card and rename it PG32IMG.zip. Then boot into HBOOT and it will find the PG32IMG.zip file and ask if you want to apply the update. You will then have an unbranded, unrooted IncS. The second advantage of S-OFF is that it will allow you to reflash the BM 2.28.666.3 RUU.
[HTC Incredible S] Lokosis:
I'm looking at doing the same thing. Wondering if patrick92260 has had any success. I have the Virgin IS and want to debrand it as its loaded with useless BELL apps. Will be attempting this myself, let you know how it goes.

Q: First question is, now that I have the .exe of RUU. How do I go about getting the ROM.zip file.

Figured it out on my own, but for others who are curious.

A:Windows > Run > %TEMP%

Then list by 'last modified folder' and it should be the first one there.
[HTC Incredible S] patrick92260:
I decided not to debrand the phone because of the different model ID for the Canadian IncS. If you debrand the phone to a WWE RUU it most likely won't ever be able to get an OTA update because when it's tries to update the phone's model ID will still be different. If there is no RUU for that new update then you'll probably be stuck with what you have.

Maybe if the IncS ever gets an actual radio S-Off I will try it.

If you still tried to debrand it though, how did it go?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Just a point of clarification. When I debranded my Bell IncS, I put the original WWE GB 2.12.405.7 ROM on it. I then received the OTA notification that 2.30.405.1 was available, so even though you won't get a Bell OTA, you do get the WWE unbranded OTAs.
[HTC Incredible S] patrick92260:
Hmm maybe I'll go ahead and give it a try then. You didn't have any issues upgrading to the WWE OTA or have problems once it was debranded? I ask just because I know if you debranded the original Desire it would kill the WiFi and I think it caused reception issues.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
I have not had any issues of debranding my Bell IncS with the WWE roms.

The OTA downloaded fine, but like all OTAs, it checks to make sure you have a stock version of the previous ROM, in this case 2.12.405.7. If you have ClockworkMod installed, the OTA will fail because that isn't the stock recovery. I could have flashed the stock recovery and ran the OTA, but I choose to take the 2.30.405.1 RUU and make a rooted version of it using dsi's XDA Android kitchen and ended up flashing that.
[HTC Incredible S] Lokosis:
Debranding went smoothly. Flashed the WWE just fine after editing the file.

Then went ahead and installed 4EXTRecovery and Virtuous Unity over that though.

Whether doing the debranding helped or not, I'm not sure. Either way I'm down to just essential apps in this rom, no bloatware.

As for OTA updates, who cares really. If you're on this forum, you've got enough knowledge to flash yourself and not have to wait for OTA updates to arrive.
[HTC Incredible S] neurobrake:
Original Bell Incredible S rom

Any one have the OEM "stock" rom/radio/kernel from Bell in case of warranty?

I did not think about this when I flashed mine and it would be great in case the hardware fail..

everything is working perfectly fine right now so it's just a "in case" question.

Thanks a tonne for responding.

I''ve an HTC Incredible S, it was at Bell's stock version, RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_BM_2.28.666.3_Radio_20.2805 .30.085AU_3805.04.03.27_M_release_199657_signed.

In order to unroot and install the HTC OTA update/RUU:

Can I directly run this zip from HTC site and will it work? OR do I need to follow some other procedure to downgrade my phone to the default image(v2.3) and then upgrade to v4.0 ?

I found this v4.0 for Incrediable S for NAM (Canada) listed on HTCDEV site. Nothing else v2.3 or anything for Bell is listed there.

No, if you have BlackRose S-OFF, you will not be able to flash the 4.14.405.2 RUU. There is a link in my signature that is a stock, rooted ROM based on this RUU that you can safely install. I would recommend that along with poondog's kernel that is also linked in my signature.
[HTC Incredible S] digitzgal:
Followup

Thanks tpbklake,

I didn't perform Step11, to install Blackrose.

I followed, Step 1, Skipped 2. Couldn't follow Step3, since I had bootrom HBOOT 1.13.0000, I could never get the OEM identifier token. Then I directly performed Step 9 to get revolutionary soff. Then I followed Step 4,5 to install clockwork recovery and root my phone. Then I performed Step 6. That's it. No other steps or flashing of custom rom.

Can I go ahead with the 4.0 RUU from HTCDev?
[HTC Incredible S] 072665995:
No. Run the blackrose tool. (Make sure you have CM7 or another rooted ROM for this). Fully run it so that now, in the bootloader, instead of Revolutionary, You should see Blackrose. Then run the tool again but this time select Uninstall Blackrose and at the end of that, you should have HBOOT 1.13.0000. Relock bootloader and then run the RUU.

Or you can just use tbpklake's stock rooted ROM. That was built off the lateset WWE RUU I believe.
[HTC Incredible S] digitzgal:
Thanks I can't use rooted ROM for a test I am doing.

So keep following the previous guide(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2118187) to perform Steps 10,11 for flashing CM7 and Blackrose. Then re-run Blackrose utility to uninstall it. Then lock the bootloader and run RUU from htcdev. Correct?

How do I lock the bootloader again?
[HTC Incredible S] 072665995:
Ok now I'm just freaking confused. What are you trying to do?? Are you trying to root?? Or what??
[HTC Incredible S] digitzgal:
I am trying to unroot and install HTC's latest 4.0 RUU.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Yes, once you upgrade to BlackRose, then you can run the BlackRose installer with the /uninstall option and that will then prepare your IncS so that you can run the 4.0.4 ICS RUU.

There is no need to relock the bootloader, because uninstalling BlackRose will put the HBOOT version back to 1.13, which does not support the UNLOCK/RELOCK oem commands.
