Can someone post a how-to video for me? I know its asking a lot. The only reason I am so eager to do this 1. I am a prepaid customer, It will take forever to get the OTA 2. the closest t-mobile RETAIL store is 80+ miles away. I have followed wolf's steps, attempted to check the MD5 of the file but can't seem to find the MD5 code on greenfox's file. Any further help would be much appreciated. This is the MD5 code that i got off the file, I just have nothing to match it against - c38aa6e2572ecec383eac5d6412dc6bf. Can anyone confirm or deny the MD5 checks out for me please.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheep_duck:
ok, i'm not normally one to have trouble with issues such as these, but this is my first android phone (htc evo 3d) and when i first got it on launch date, i manually entered all my contacts from my old phone to my new one. well i recently went through the root process and read that if you had your gmail account as the primary google account, that you wouldnt have to worry about your contacts anymore, after a wipe or changing to a new phone.

well after root i let the phone do all the gmail syncing after enabling it, and my contacts are still not there. i am having trouble getting into an option that will let me view or add or edit contacts from google. i go into accounts and sync, click my google account but all it will let me do is enable or disable the syncing of contacts. can someone give me a brief rundown of exactly how this works? and are my contacts all gone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theone112:
It works pretty much the way you described it; once you have the contacts in your phone you sync and they all get saved to your default gmail account. Then when/if you decide to wipe, you run sync again and they'll be uploaded to your phone.

This is what I'd do if I were you;

- Open gmail -> contacts and check if they are actually there.

- If your contacts are there, then maybe you don't have them set to shown in your phone display options under contacts.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheep_duck:
thanks for the quick reply. when you say to open gmail, do you mean through the accounts and sync settings menu? or the gmail app? when i go through the accounts and sync, i just get the option of turning the syncing for each category (i.e. contacts, weather, news) on or off, i cant actually go into each one to see what they are comprised of. i feel pretty dumb not being able to figure this out, but i had over 100 peoples numbers and information on my contacts before i wiped and rooted my phone, so i'm willing to accept sounding like a noob in hopes of possibly getting them back.

thanks again in advance.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theone112:
No problem at all ;) No, I meant open it on your computer (http://www.google.com/contacts) and see if there are any in there.

Regarding display options; I don't know which phone you're using, but you get there by opening Contacts -> Display Options on my LG (http://www.shrani.si/f/30/1s/1KBZD0Ot/screenshot-1314442655693.png a screenshot of how it might look like if it's of any help)

[Milestone 2 General] mkioshi:
Hello, since sometime ago (don't remember when, sorry) my Dialer and SMS apps stopped working.

I never did any 'crazy stuff' with my Milestone 2 - just froze some motoblur stuff with Titanium (and only the really unnecessary stuff like ESMusica, things that you know they're useless) it's rooted too, but that's it. I unfroze everything and still no go, when I try to open them I get a black screen for two seconds and then it goes back back to the home screen.

I don't remember when it happened because I've been using GO Dialer and GO SMS for a long time, so it doesn't really bother me since they work on any launcher, but... I may buy a Galaxy S2 or an Atrix and it will be kind of weird selling the phone without the native Dialer and SMS borked :(

Anybody went through something similar? And any solution?

Thanks a lot in advance.
[Milestone 2 General] wadimka:
maybe just do a factory reset before you sell it? had the same problem with titanium, but i couldn't even recieve any sms...

first try unfreezing all blur-sh** and then reboot it, maybe that helps!

Before you sell it, do a factory reset and flash Retail Brazil SBF.

[Milestone 2 General] mkioshi:
Thanks! Good idea doing it before selling (not in a hurry because I just found out my carrier won't discount me until feb 2012 - so maybe I'll be able to get a quad core phone by then, I love my iMac and iPad but I hate the iPhone's keyboard and lack of multitasking - what made me try to freeze all the motoblur stuff was that my phone is constantly hitting 100% cpu and slowing down even with the motothings frozen and oc'ed to 1.25).

But on the unfroze+reboot thing, no luck :( The messaging app runs, I can click on the facebook messages, etc but when I click text messaging it goes back to the Home Screen. I deleted the app cache/data via app settings on the phone and no go.

If I do a factory reset, what will I lose? My phone apps and contacts? I can reinstall then, and my Go Launcher setup is backed up on the SD and my contacts are synced with google and the mac's address book so maybe I can benefit from it?

Thanks for your response!

Dan can you tell me or point me to how I do this sbf thing? I never flashed anything on my phone, never tried custom ROMs because of the locked bootloader. Thank you.
[Milestone 2 General] dangpzanco:
Search for sbf_flash (mac/linux) or RSD Lite 5.3/4.8/4.9 (windows). Those are the programs that can flash a motorola signed SBF to your phone.

For the files download:

http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone2

For an explanation of the CGs(partitions) stored inside each SBF (see Droid X section):

http://and-developers.com/partitions:cdt

For a GB SBF get the leak in the Dev forum and the root method in the General or in the Droid 3 forum.

To flash it you need to be on bootloader mode, Power + Volume Down + Camera.

For a better explanation on how to flash it search the forum, you may find it.

Sorry, no links of the forum, I'm on mobile.

Edit: If you want a custom Rom, I only tested the MIUI and it is good, the others (not including Mostly Blurless GB) may have some crazy bugs.

[Milestone 2 General] mkioshi:
Thanks a lot for the great explanation! I'll actually try it because since my phone performs very well one week and drives me crazy the next one depending on the apps I'm using, it seems like a good idea to start from scratch, I'll just look for something to manually backup my contacts before (I know google backs them up, just wanna be 100% sure I don't lose anybody lol).

Again, thanks a ton for such a detailed explanation.

Have you changed the screen density? It used to happen the exact same thing with stock SMS and Dialer in my MS2 when I did.
[Milestone 2 General] mkioshi:
Yeah I never worried but... One friend I added a long time ago (including fb profile, etc) was not imported - at least not her phone number - so I'm worried now that the contacts I added manually (in her case I just added the phone number, the rest was all fb+google info) won't be 100% synced. I'll check some of the people I added manually if I can remember who they are lol.

I saw threads about that but I never changed it. I only changed the number of rows and columns in my launchers (Go and Launcher Pro) but not screen density.

Baseband Help (TIM BRAZIL)

Hello,

My Milestone 2 is no network, when I turn it appears unsigned. Saw in other forums that the problem may be the Baseband, I'm using the ROM and it came MIUI Defy Baseband Switch, tried all the bands available for Brazil, but none works. Could you help me?
[Milestone 2 General] MasterTB:
I regularly have the same problem with my dialer app.

It is not that it stops working but after a few days of collecting calls it crashes when I dial certain numbers, for example 420 which is one of the most common number starts for me, the app crashes immediately.

If I clear the stats for the recent calls -in and out- the app doesn't crash but it will crash if I try to see the number matches for that 420 that I dialed.

I hope I'm making myself clear.

I think it is a bug in the app because I don't use titanium to disable anything related to the dialer or contacts or search or anything that has influence over the dialer app.

If anyone has an idea as to why this happens please let me know.

Martin.-

I meant to say setcpu only works after boot like cpu will be 1100 while booting after OS is loaded up setcpu gets super user permission and then scale cpu down.

If kernal has set clock to 1000 by defualt and only then it boots at 1000 and u can use setcpu to over clock it.

i guess old faux's 1.6 kernel was default 1000 new 1.7 is not.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tanmayjindal:
I was using Gingerreal 1.1.0, based on KPN and yesterday noticed a weird 'bzz' sound when playing music (stock music player, then winamp). Thinking it was a GR bug, I flashed a fresh, stock KPN and still notice the same distortion. This happens even when listening to ringtones, in the system app. My question is, is this common at volumes of 10/15? Or has my speaker gone bad, and I need to get it checked? I use 320 kbps mp3s, so the quality of the mp3 file isn't in question (happens with ALL my songs).

Thanks!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
It happens to my mp4 player, computer and phone. It should be either the jack getting old, or the disk drive getting old. just a guess! Because i've searched google which turns up no results.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
I've had it ever since the day I got my Ace . I'm still thinking whether it's an antenna problem or speaker fault .
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tanmayjindal:
I meant my loudspeaker. The in-call sound is most likely carrier dependent. Even my bootsound is surprisingly loud. And thus distorted. Time to get it checked?

PS. I should revert to the stock Asian Froyo before visiting the service center, right?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
Yes , the sounds came out of my loudspeaker too .
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tanmayjindal:
So you say it is normal? But shouldn't the sound be normal even at the maximum specified volume? What's the point of having levels till, say 15, when only till 9 the sound remains clean?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
You may have harmed your speaker previously . :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tanmayjindal:
That's what is even more surprising. I've barely used it. All the side stickers are still there. And I usually keep it on vibrate. Sucks really. You take full care about scratches and stuff. Then this happens. And the service centres will probably ruin it. Happened with my PSP, iPod.. :/
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
You could try going into service mode and changing the pre-amp in the sound settings .

To get into Service Mode , download SamServMode .

BE CAREFUL ON WHAT SETTINGS YOU SET THERE .
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tanmayjindal:
Ooohh.. SamServMode downloaded from the market?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tanmayjindal:
Can anyone confirm if their speaker doesn't buzz at loud volumes? I want to be sure before I claim my warranty at a service centre. People here in India don't always accept claims..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
I do hear it almost everytime the processor hits max .
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tanmayjindal:
I think you're referring to lags. I get sounds as if there's something that's on the speaker filament, and touching it. BTW, what do I change in the Service Mode? I tried rebuilding speaker values, set pre-amp for MP3 something and speaker to 0 db. No effects. It really is messed up..

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZroe:
Are you people INSANE?! Bad Company 2 is the best example of the WORST controls! It's impossible to place your finger dead-center without a real stick the returns to center and, therefore, placing your finger anywhere on the touchpad area causes your aim to jump and spin before you can compensat. Furthermore, the only way to "return to center" properly is to let go, which causes you to keep jumping all over the place when you try to adjust your aim. The best I've found BY FAR is Dead Space because it treats it like a touchpad/touchscreen: When you stop, it stops. When you move faster, it moves faster (nothing to do with distance from center). When you touch but don't move, your aim stays put. THAT IS THE WAY TO DO IT, PEOPLE! ;)

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZroe:
Lies. Everyone who knows better complains about it. I bought it on my Xperia PLAY but had to finish it on my brother's HP TouchPad because it was infinitely more playable WITHOUT the analog touchpads. That is a complete failure if they make a game LESS playable.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZroe:
I just loaded it up from my Titanium Backup archive. It says "Checking for Updates" when I start the game but it does not update. The controls do feel better than the last time I recall, but it definitely isn't like Dead Space. I guess I have the old version then.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aros2k:
Controls are perfect since the update
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TLRtheory:
"Best" is always gonna be subjective.

ShadowGun certainly was unplayable post-update, but now it's definitely on-par with Dead Space. What's even crazier is that it's original simulated analog has been improved too! AND IT FEELS NICE TO USE. Everyone's been colossally failing at making the Xperia PLAY touch-pads work properly without swipe, and ShadowGun showed 'em all up with one update.

Personally, I've found the following to be nice for controls:

• Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (It feels weird at first, but 5 minutes after it became very nice)

• N.O.V.A. 2

• Modern Combat 2 (version 3.3.9 and before only, the new versions WRECKED it)

• Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard

• Modern Combat 3 (I had to tone down the sensitivity just a notch, but then it was great even without auto-aim)

Still though... Gameloft needs to take all their Xperia PLAY games (ESPECIALLY Splinter Cell Conviction) back to R&D and tweak them until they're up to the standards of Dead Space/ShadowGun.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
I agree, this list is about where I am. The controls were restored on Order & Chaos but i think they are crap.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZroe:
OK, I loaded my Titanium Backup and then checked Market for an update and found none so I was prepared to call "BS!" until I DLed the expansion pack content and saw that it was included with the new game data and not an actual update. I hadn't downloaded it because I didn't have WiFi convenient to me.

Anyway, I still hesitate to call it "perfect." Dead Space had restricted corridors where Shadowgun is a bit more open and the tiny touch area on the pads does not give you enough range of motion to target with fine detail unless you make the aim sensitivity maddeningly low. Also, holding your aim and following something while keeping your aim steady seems a bit harder than it should be. Regardless, it is now "Dead Space" style and it is fixed as far as I am concerned. :)
