Mine no longer does this. I think it needed a full charge to "set" the battery or to calibrate the charge detection software.

I dunno, all I know is that after the tab finally got a full overnight charge while it was turned off - suddenly this issue is no longer.

Same goes for the touch screen not responding while the tab was plugged in. That issue is gone as well.

I tried rooting my phone... I guess that I massed things up too much.

Now I can get to ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.2.4 from the RECOVERY...

but starting the device just show the GOOGLE and open locker... and it just hangs...

I can mount it (with the clockwork), so I tried some Nexus-S roms (update.zip) but I get "Installation aborted."...

H-E-L-P! :eek:

I can't start my device, how can I get it back to normal??

Thanks

I knew that I have to get the stock rom (update.zip)

I've found it here and it worked!

thanks guys
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ka1iban:
The screen on my MyTouch Slide shattered and I ordered and installed a replacement (this is the outer layer/digitizer). No issues there. But now the touchscreen functions are out of whack. It responds but there are dead areas, it scrolls choppily and acts like it needs calibration.

I'm not sure if this is a hardware or a software issue. Nothing but the outer screen was damaged initially (as far as I could tell). I'm wondering if:

This could be a contact problem? If the digitizer wasn't set properly on the LCD, could this be a result? (I disassembled and reassembled the phone after this problem began to try and confirm this but the problem persists)

If the phone needs some kind of software calibration or adjustment? I did a hard reset and wipe after installing, but no improvement.

ROM issue? I am running Cyanogen RC 7.1

LCD broken? Not attractive, but possible.

Any suggestions anyone has would be helpful. This isn't my main phone (and it's probably ready for the Shoebox of Retirement) but I'd like to get it running well before I give up on it.

Thanks!

Due to some security software, I get a lot of pdf and word docs from the office where the file type ends in a ^ (example, file.doc^) My DroidX has no problem simply opening the attachments in quickoffice free but the transformer won't even let me click on them to open because it doesn't recognize the filetype.

I'm just throwing this post up because I didn't see anything exactly like it when I was searching around about how to do it.

I found this post over on the Captivate forums which got me in the right direction, but the coding was somewhat different.

Anyhow, the point here is to be able to create whatever date and/or time you would like when you pull down the notifications panel...Please see the screenshot of mine below.

In order to do this, you have to edit the DateView.smali file from the classes.dex in your service.jar...Please see the Captivate thread I linked above for a good step-by-step on how to get the file decompiled and recompiled.

Here's the code changes in diff format...Please notice you'll be looking for: .method private final updateClock()V

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cpgeek:
I have a Samsung galaxy tab 7" currently running the latest version of the overcome rom (but i'm not married to it if others here have better recommendations), and for whatever reason, whenever i try to format my newly purchased 32gb sd card that i've placed inside, it wants to format it in fat32, which is one of the worst filesystems for data integrity ever devised (no journaling or data protection features of any kind). I have attempted to use my fat32 formatted sd card for a few ebooks that i've got, but when i move them from one folder to another, and then reboot, I get a lost+found directory full of corrupt, errant data and an empty folder where i attempted to move my stuff... this is, of course, unacceptable.

first off, why is fat32 used for the sd card in the first place when the system clearly uses rfs by default (upgraded to ext4 by my overcome installation), and anyone who is technologically inclined knows the pretty extreme limitations of fat32 (4gb single file data limit, no file protection mechanisms)?

and secondly, how do I fix this problem? the tab doesn't seem to accept my sd card when i format it in ext4 using my ubuntu desktop and an sd card reader, nor does gingerbread seem to have any advanced mount controls at all (including strangely the lack of mount support for cifs/smb, which i think is crazy as well but probably well out of the scope of this particular post).

tldr: external storage support on gingerbread is archaic and broken, how do i fix it for regular use?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TigerWild:
Pinging this thread for IMPORTANCE

I very much hate FAT32, yet am forced to keep using it in my external SD card on phone in the same way. I would love to see all devs add full ROM support for reformatting and mounting external SD cards with full suite of OS supported file systems. How is it OS supports EXT4 yet I am still bound to FAT32 on SD card !!!!????

This is very important to me, and should be to you all too. we need file system journaling and large file support!

Wouldn't hurt to build in advanced visual presentation for formatting/converting any partition on phone from/to all supported types with ability to setup swap partitions. I know I ask for a lot.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squarephase:
I have this posted in the General forum, but I think I was supposed to post it in this one not that one, but heres my issue:

I have an HTC Evo 4G (Sprint) and it is stuck in a continuous reboot; it gets to the music then the 4G logo and then reboots.

I got my phone originally with Android 2.1 but updated to 2.3

I have restarted it several times, taken the battery out for awhile. Let the unit cool down. I have connected it to my charger and it still didnt work. I plugged it in to my computer but it would never recognize it.

I have been into the reset menu, and have tried the recovery option, but I recieved the Phone logo with a red triangle with a red exclamation mark. I kind of know what the other options are but dont know enough to actually use them or if they can help.

I have been searching the internet and this site looking for any options other than a hard reset.

So I have really two questions:

Is there a way to pull my contacts off?

And if I take it to Sprint do they have any machines to pull of the contacts or will they just do a hard reset too?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
If you have a Google Account and your contacts are synced with Google then your contacts are preserved on Google's servers. You can logon to your Gmail and see that your contacts are intact. Are you rooted? If so, have you ever made a nandroid backup? If so, restore it. If you are not rooted, then all you can basically do is a factory reset and once you login with your Google credentials, your calendar, contacts, etcetera will automatically be restored to your EVO. If you are rooted, do a complete wipe using amonRA v2.3, re-download the rom you were using and then flash it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raremind:
With the contacts, did you create a Google account when you set up the phone originally? If you did all your contacts should be online in your Google g-mail account and will sync back to the phone should you get a new one. As for the boot loop, the thread below has some great fixes for those types of problems. You may want to take a look.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695243

Just a small reminder, a simple search on these Evo forums would have netted you this info very easily had you looked a little harder. Hope this helps! Good luck!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squarephase:
I have not rooted the phone, i've never messed with that, I just used it like it came out of the box. The only thing I ever applied to it were the updates. And I originally did not have a google account with the phone but created one later. I went logged in and checked it and nothing was synced.

Do you think Sprints machines can pull my contacts off or do you thinks is fried.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raremind:
If you can not get into the OS, no sprint will not be able to pull your contacts. Can you get to the boot loader by holding volume down and power?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squarephase:
I checked my gamil account and it didnt sync.

I was reading through those boot loop fixes, so basically I use my SD card and I should be able to break the loop? At least if im reading correctly.

Because even when I take the battery out and replace it, it automaticlly loops again,

I can access the hard reset menu but thats it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
I agree...Also, did you, by chance, have your contacts stored on your SD card? If so, you should be able to transfer anything saved on the card by inserting the card into a card reader and your computer. I hate to say it, but your options are very limited.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squarephase:
Well thats no good. I can get to the boot loader screen
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squarephase:
I checked my sd card and went through every folder, and found no contacts file. Aside from accessing the boot loader screen I got nothing
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khilbron:
Unfortunately if you didnt manually export your contacts to your SD card(this is a feature of android that you can select from the contacts list). Then Sprint will not be able to extract your contact from a phone that cannot boot. You have a couple options at this point.

1. Take it to Sprint to see if they can do anything at all to recover your contacts before doing a hard reset.

2. Say F'it I can add them again as time goes on and perform a hard reset yourself to see if the phone will boot.

3. If you followed Step 2 and the phone still bootloops, you will need to buy a new phone unless you have insurance on the phone, in that case you can get it replaced.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squarephase:
Yea, I'll take it to the sprint store ( might as well ) and try my luck there. But I guess a reset I will have to do.

So since I have not rooted my phone and have no recovery images to flash to the phone, that means I cannot break the loop without hard resseting it?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rsegura77:
So I just got me a Samsung 4g (I know, I know, what took me so long) well anyways I had a Vibrant 3g since day one and I love it. Now my brother gave me his 4g and I am wondering do I really want it. (besides having ffc, 4g and other stock specs) I hesitate because I have rooted and flashed so many roms finding what is best for me and now I have to start all over. So I have some questions for all you 4g owners. I love tethering so does the Vibrant 4g force me to activate through Tmobile or does a custom rom already have it avoiding tmobile to activate it. That leads to my next questions, what in your opinion do you think is the best rom (looks doesnt really matter I prefer launcer pro anyways) I was running Masters rom, Axura and though that was great for the 3g.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
first off, let me say that the two phones are VERY different. dont come into this forum thinking they are the same. i am telling you this now because if i read a post saying "i used rom manager" or "i flashed a vibrant rom" "...and now I am bricked...you HAVE to help ME"...then i will ignore it.

other than that...Welcome!!! :) had to get the above out of the way. anyway. you should be able to create a hotspot for free. i dont really tether, so idk.

as for the roms, check out the Bible thread (search:"Bible") and it will list everything. you will probably want to go to Gingerbread, so check out the ICBINB GB roms because they have every SGS4G tweak in them.

if you want froyo, icbinb froyo with the sweet acid theme is really nice. i am currently on bionix frost and i love it completely. i can walk you through flashing any froyo rom out there. for gb, a ton of people have made detailed walkthroughs and phreshjoker is recording videos.

let me know what you decide to do after you read and i will gladly help in any way.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rsegura77:
Thanks for your imput and the heads up, I though flashing was going to be exactly the same to be honest I will definatly go over the flashing threads and the bible of course. I will try bionix frost, but I like to have the most up to date rom so I have a feeling I will end up sticking to gingerbread ICBINB GB roms
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
Welcome to the dark side!!! We have cookies! :D

While it's definitely tempting to jump right into ICBINB GB ROMs, I would suggest to wait. Since the flashing process is different compared to the Vibrant, you should get comfortable with using the SGS4G CWM first. That would mean going for the Froyo ROMs first. As soon as you're comfortable, you should make the jump to GB. Just a suggestion though. :)

As for my favorite ROMs here, I would say Bionix Frost, ICBINB Froyo and GB, and Audiophile Series (Froyo and GB). Bionix Frost was my first ROM and is still the easiest ROM to flash on this forum. Just check your mounts through CWM and flash. ICBINB is the fastest ROM I've run on Froyo, so that would be on the top of my list. Audiophile is fast and great for...audiophiles, so if music is your thing, this ROM will definitely be for you.

Of course, there are plenty of great ROMs on this forum. I haven't tried all of them (I haven't actually tried Audiophile either), but these seem to be the most popular.

Lastly, remember to read all directions carefully! Good luck!
