My real gripe with AppHub is that there is a week delay between app downloads and when it shows on our end. It use to be two weeks. So I guess it's gotten better, but faster I get results, the better I can promote my apps.

Also wish there was a way to contact people who reviewed apps.

And finally, wish I could generate promotion codes so that I could give out free apps in promotions and what not.

But as far as getting apps published, my understanding is that it's no better with Apple.

confirmed, they're quite messed up
[Windows Phone 7 General] HackMimic:
Yeah I am hoping all will be cool. Its just annoying when they state a time frame in an email correspondence and do not follow through. From there correspondence it looks like my issue is only related to subject matter but they are considering it for the marketplace as the legal team is reviewing it. In my opinion my Medical Marijuana app should be allowed as all the other platforms allow it and I do not think others have implemented things in a real professional way. Where as I am making my apps as an educational tool as compared to a "ha ha lets get messed up" kind of app. what really is annoying is they have a drug identifier app on the marketplace that shows pictures of cocaine and stuff and it is really half-assed but it was allowed. Things just do not make sense with these big companies.

Hi, this is my first post ;)

I'm trying to compile a kernel for the device Z71 with the CM7, but I have 2 source code, one is 2.6.35.11 and 2.6.32.9 is another.

The 2.6.35.11 all works well but spend a lot of battery, 2.6.32.9 has good range but has some minor problems with the wifi. Can I import the settings of the wifi code 2.6.35.11. for 2.6.32.9?

I only know how to compile the kernel but I can not tamper with the code ...

I would appreciate help!

Sorry my bad english :o

[Motorola Droid 3] Serk102:
So I installed and ran psouza's bloatware removal script, but when it was reset my phone got stuck at the boot screen. So I did battery pull and re-booted the phone, which led me to be stuck at the boot screen once again. Ok, no biggie, I don't really have too much on the phone I'll factory reset it. Once I did that everything was going good until after it asked me what gps services I was going to use(verizon, google, stand alone) I clicked them all pressed finished, and then things started to get a bit weird. The screen was completely black except for the notification bar up top, which I could access and set up things like wifi and such, but pulling it back up showed the same black screen as before. Now what this leads me to believe is that I might have removed the launcher on accident(I don't know how I was being very careful as to watch what I was removing, but it's been a long day...). So my question is, is there any way to recover my phone, whether it be setting it back to stock somehow, downloading another launcher from the android market(keep in mind I don't exactly have access to the market via my phone), or other? Also I really don't want to talk to Verizon/get a new phone unless it's the only thing possible.

Thanks in advance, and sorry for being such a noob >.<

Edit: Managed to install launcher pro and now everything is working fine.
[Motorola Droid 3] tcrews:
use ADB and install launcherpro to the device. You can get it from www.launcherpro.com and use adb install (not push).

For everyone else reading...

Factory Reset is the last thing you want to do when having issues with your phone if you have modified the system/app files in anyway (renamed, deleted, froze, etc..).

It seems from what I've been reading, most do not know what a Factory Reset does. Factory Reset wipes your /data /cache and /davlik-cache partitions clean. It does not change your /system partition, does not "restore" apps you've deleted, changed, replaced, added or anything else in /system. Why...because there is no hidden partition that holds a copy of "how the phone was" when it was stock. It's only "resetting" what you have (as a user) done on the phone. If you've deleted contacts.apk and added SuperUser.apk to /system/app....then that's the same way it will be after a factory reset. Same for /system/xbin or /system/bin if you've copied SU and BUSYBOX there......

So what it does it is erases all the settings, configurations, apps you've downloaded/installed from the Market, account info and such....things that might still function once configured and then some apps deleted/renamed/frozen but will not function if trying to configure fresh.

If you have a stock phone, Factory Reset can be your friend. If you have a modified phone, Factory Reset can be your worst nightmare.

Complete ROMs (CM7, Bugless Beast, etc..) can be Factory Reset just like a stock ROM...unless you start changing things in /system......

Remember, Factory Reset is not a recovery, it's an "erase the stuff I've added/configured" based off a stock unrooted users abilities. Changes to files/folders/apps that are in areas that require root to access, are not touched by a Factory Reset.

This is why you can get in more trouble....things are missing and now you've wiped your configurations/install apps (example...using LauncherPro and deleted the stock Launcher.apk...do a Factory Reset....now LauncherPro no longer exist and the deleted stock Launcher.apk is still deleted....no home screen launcher).
[Motorola Droid 3] Serk102:
Thanks for the insight tcrews, I managed to get everything straightened out right before you posted, but it still has some valuable information that I will make sure to remember. I really shouldn't have done to much messing around with my phone since I wasn't quite sure what I was doing(I don't even have a reliable way to recover via sd, or cloud storage yet). I think this instance was just one of carelessness, in that I wasn't paying full attention to what was going on. Oh well, I learned my lesson.
[Droid X General] VerizonKoolaid:
hopefully this can be inflicted with sbf_flash (linux). I used File Expert instead of Root Explorer to change permissions on /data/system/thrtottle however File Expert crashed and now I am stuck in boot loop land.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amandureja:
Hey everyone,

I'm using the "Battery Calibration" app to calibrate my GS2 battery, and I have already charged it to 100% and wiped the "batterystats.bin" file, and completely discharged it.

Now I have a question about charging it back to 100% - I'm going to be charging it while the phone is turned off, so how long should I leave it on charge before I can be absolutely sure it's at 100%? Some posts suggest 24 hours, while others say overnight or even 8 hours or so is completely fine and enough for the battery to become fully charged. Also, I don't need to "bump charge" to properly calibrate it, correct? I just let it charge to 100% now, and then I can use it as normal, right?

Thanks in advance for your help! :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
8hours ish should take you upto 100%

And after its upto 100% its fine to use it as normal.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilVinz:
...yep...when you see on the display (by clicking home button) the battery icon showing inside 100% then you can unplug your phone and use it normally...battery have a limit of charge just to avoid corruption so when they are at 100% they automatically stop to receive more charge...that's why I think is useful to leave the phone in charge more than he need.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilVinz:
...sorry I haven't seen you already answer:o
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amandureja:
Thanks for the responses guys!

Now, it has been about 3 hours since I put my phone for charging, turned off, at a completely discharged 0% battery (I even tried download mode before I put it for charging, to make sure it was completely discharged), and now the charge meter is showing 100%...

I'm pretty sure that 3 hours is a VERY short time to charge to 100%... I haven't taken it off the charger yet, so would you recommend waiting a few more hours (maybe 5 more hours?), or is it fine to just take it off the charger right now?

I'm worried a bit now, because 3 hours seems an extremely short amount of time to charge a battery that is 'supposed' to run for 18+ hours...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amandureja:
Well, I just read that 3 hours is about normal, so thank you for your help! :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilVinz:
...you are welcome bro;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
Firstly, there isn't such a thing as battery calibration with Lithium batteries. Since there is NO MEMORY EFFECT.

Lithium batteries are not Lead Acid batteries, it does not need 8hr to 16hr trickle charge.

Charging is controlled by BMS, there is no such thing as Charging past 100%. So when it is considered 100% by the BMS (Voltage), the BMS will stop charging it.

Lithium batteries gets damaged when there is less than 10% charge, so emptying it to 0% is not a good idea. You cannot really extend Lithium batteries lifespan since it only has a 2+1/2 yr lifespan, 2000 to 5000 deep charge cycles and around 2,000,000 micro charge cycles. It is better to charge anytime you want, as long as it does not go below 10% (Most electronic equipments will state 0% at that time).

Deep Charge Cycle, when close to 0% (10% charge left in battery) you can charge 2000 times back to 100% (depending on quality of battery)

Micro Charge Cycle, when roughly above 40%, you can charge 2,000,000 times back to 100%.

Soooo..... would you like to limit battery charging cycles to 2000 or prefer that you can charge it 2,000,000 times?
[HTC EVO 3D] timinator94:
Ok like many I upgraded my phone and used HTC's S-Off Tool. That means no AOSP for me :(

The purpose of this thread is to discuss methods of downgrading the hboot to one that allows kernel flashing, as well as keep up to date regarding development in this area.

I attempted to flash the Eng Hboot through bootloader and no dice. I also tried

C:\Android>fastboot flash hboot hboot.img
sending 'hboot' (1024 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.363s]
writing 'hboot'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.365s

I also tried RUU and it didn't work either

Now its up to you real devs to try and figure this out :D

Thats fine and all but I think its kinda ridiculous that HTC's s-off isn't really fully unlocked... The one time I decide to go the official methods I get screwed :mad:

Won't be making that mistake again..
[HTC EVO 3D] jamexman:
This method also works and the flashes take:

Have your recovery image (I have cwm in the same directory as fastboot.exe to make things easier).

Boot into bootloader, choose fasboot, connect the phone via usb (turns into fastboot usb)

Command prompt, "fastboot boot whatever your recovery image name is.img" (obviously exclude the "")

So for me I.E. it will be "fastboot boot cwm-4.0.1.4.img"

The phone will boot into recovery, now, since you called recovery from fastboot, it will flash any rom or kernel like in the OP's method (i have tried it and sticks, it appears the sole fact of launching or using fastboot removes any lock HTC has left there). The advantage is, if you have a ROM that includes a modified kernel already (like overclocking and such), you don't have to extract the kernel and flash it separately.

Thanks Brandas!.

You can flash kernels via fastboot with hboot 1.5. I can confirm this I did it a few times on ny old 3d

[HTC EVO 3D] kittykat858:
i have discussed how to flash kernels on hboot 1.50 on here a few weeks ago...

it can be done - did it the other day as a matter of fact

fastboot flash boot boot.img

we had to do this on synergy, cause the installer script could not flash the ramdisk from the rom. after fastbooting the ramdisk..all the issues went away.
[HTC EVO 3D] armonwilson888:
so you with hboot 1.5 we just dont have root yet?
[HTC EVO 3D] kittykat858:
if you have 1.5 - what i walked someone thru on synergy's chat - (that someone else copied/pasted it on here and took credit for, spelling errors and all) is this:

they unlocked via HTCDEV.COM from a 1.40 bootloader - she did this under the advise of another forum (not xda). this process involved to updating to the latest RUU/firmware/hboot/radio package, then using htcdev.com to unlock the bootloader. after she did this, she was stuck.

we fastbooted clockwork recovery's IMG file to her phone, and flashed synergy

we noticed it wasnt working correcly, so i had her superwipe, and format w/ the ext4 optimization tool - it still wasnt working correctly.

*after the 1st flash of synergy, clockwork recovery broke and refused to work, even after being re-flashed via fastboot. we have since flashed TeamWin's recovery from a IMG file using fastboot, and have had no issues w/ the recovery tool.

after i looked in to it, i found the stock HTC kernel and ramdisk was still installed.

we fastbooted the ramdisk - and now she is 100% up and running.

i personally would wait for 1.50 to be cracked to get full S-OFF, but if u cant wait, you can still unlock, flash roms, root, and fastboot the ramdisk.

You might see if you can get some help from the devs that hang out in #Thunderbolt on the andirc.com chat to help with downgrading hboot. We had to do it for the original Thunderbolt s-off method. It involved flashing the misc partition with an "unsecure boot image" I believe is what they called it. I don't really know how it works or if the same could be done with the Evo3D but it might be worth a shot.

[HTC EVO 3D] graffixnyc:
I tried with the misc partition hack but it still doesnt work. IEF from revolutionary also tried on my friend's phone with the misc partition. Even after you flashed the edited one, hboot still reads the new version(IEF thought maybe the misc partition was being rewritten somehow at boot). We really tried everything everything he could think of. We couldnt get the hboot to downgrade no matter what trick we used :(
[HTC EVO 3D] housry23:
OK I understand that a kernel can be flashed after using HTC unlock method on HBOOT 1.50. That is good news. Even though I don't have the latest HBOOT and I used the REvolutionary tool to s-off my phone, I am very interested in the development of being able to downgrade the latest HBOOT. The reason? Well, if something were to happen and I have to get a replacement phone and it came with the latest update out of the box. Or, if I have to take it to a Sprint repair center and I have to unroot and go back to stock and they update to the latest firmware. I would use HTC's method to unlock, but would prefer to downgrade and use Revolutionary. I understand that they are working on supporting the latest HBOOT in Revolutionary, but from what I understand the updates patches the fr3vo exploit and other holes. I hope that just because kernels can be flashed that no one works on finding a way to downgrade the HBOOT after using HTC's unlock method.

[General Questions and Answers] erikderzweite:
Hi!

I have an HTC Wildfire, have it rooted, clockwork and cyanogenmod installed. Now, I need to send it back for repair an therefor restore everything as it was. This thread is great help: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1160251

I have a problem though: I don't have Windows except for Virtualbox and RUU won't work there. So I need to install the data from RUU*.exe using linux tools only.

So far I have extracted the rom.zip file using wine and

find .wine/drive_c/ -name 'rom.zip' -exec cp -v {} ./update.zip \;

Inside this rom.zip I have the following:

android-info.txt radio.img recovery.img system.img userdata.img boot.img hboot_7225_1.01.0001_101117.nb0 rcdata.img splash1.nb0

So I boot into the recovery and try to flash rom.zip which I have renamed to update.zip and copied to /sdcard/. I needed to turn signature checkings off to get past signature checking error, now I get following:

E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted

I assume that it is possible to install all the *.img and *.nb0 files, but in what order do I have to install them and how exactly? I have linux, fastboot and adb at my disposal. HTCFlasher doesn't work with wildfire. So, how do I get my stock rom back? Does anybody have an idea?
[General Questions and Answers] erikderzweite:
Found out myself (sort of).

Ok, I bit the bullet, cleaned the cache and did as follows from a folder with all the rom images:

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot flash rcdata rcdata.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

Now I have HTC stock firmware with HTC Sense on top of it. Probably no root, but I need it to send my wildfire back for repair anyway.

Last thing to do: install hboot with

fastboot oem mb 9C068490 1 30
fastboot flash hboot hboot_7225_1.01.0001_101117.nb0

Let's hope it'll work.

EDIT: It did work indeed!

Does anybody know what "fastboot oem mb 9C068490 1 30" exactly does? Except that it is an OEM command of course?

Do you ever suffer issues with apps force closing? or any other instabilites?

I remember using cyanogenmod for the htc dream and even the stable releases lagged and apps always force closed and got to the point where i had to reinstall the rom or restore a backup so iv been hesitant to move from stock to a custom rom but it seems if i wait for the official gingebread rom ill be waiting forever and from what i heard from the g2x its crap anyway.

Which nightly version is it your currently using?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rchard:
Im the early nightlies i had alot of force closes but now i am on build #126 and i find it rock solid; less force closes, smooth, fast. Ofcoz there r bugs but for a nightly i would say much better than stock. The only thing doesnt work at the moment is A2DP/FM radio.

I have to see how is the stock gingerbread but there has been alot of discussion here that it doesnt rise the bar.
