No, you're not gonna have less memory.

Did you tried to wipe to factory defaults from recovery mode(power button and vol+)?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] typek3003:
You will not have less space because an original firware will format everything from boot partition, system and data... Basically , it will give you original software and status like it came from factory ... Like the other user said, jut find it, extract it , put the dload directory to the root of you sd card and hold volume down and start up the phone ... You will see a progress bar and when it is finished , the phone will restart itself, you will have to wait longer due to the creation of new files and there you go :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] r5xscn:
Install recovery first, then you can connect your device to PC using recovery. If you have friend that have X5, copy the launcher. Else, just install Custom ROM.

The old one will be removed if you install custom ROM. If I'm not wrong.

Recovery.

Unplug USB, turn off your phone, press and hold vol + and -, then press power. Hold those three buttons until it turned on and the screen is purple-pink.

Backup all image data(copy). The rest is in the link.

Sorry for my English. Hope you understand what I write.:).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vladislavnm:
You are magician. :) it works now.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vladislavnm:
:mad: hmmm... but there is no launcher application - no workspace available. it doesn't want to load as before. strange.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vladislavnm:
upgrade don't work too. It is cycle repeating of step1/2.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I just tested and found that you can copy the missing apk from bootloader mode. In this mode(power + vol- + vol+ buttons), when connected to pc via usb cable all partitions of device mounted(at least this happens on linux). So, you can navigate to system partition on /system/app folder and copy there the missing launcher' s apk file. You can find this file on a custom' s rom(or on an official' s rooted rom like modaco's roms) update.zip file. It's on system/app folder. I tested this on linux and I could(not as normal but as root user though) copy or delete files from there.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vladislavnm:
dancer_69, thank you for your support. At my side when I connect via bootmode, there is only flashdrive is visible. :mad:

It's really strange that it is not going to upgrade.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vladislavnm:
I'm able to apply sdcard:update.zip. So maybe if to put this application inside of the card, it could install. but I don't know how to do it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vladislavnm:
I finded apk file and tried to install it but it don't receive file because it hasn't some certificate. ???
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I think you have 3 options here.

1. flash an official rom(you put the dload folder of rom's zip file on root of sdcard and boot to bootloader mode. The update starts automatic)

2. Use a linux system(maybe a livecd) to access the other partitions.

3. Try to reroot the device from pc, via superoneclick app(you can find it here), so to have access to system again.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vladislavnm:
but I haven't access to installation program area. nothing!

I have only ability by pressing (vol + and on) to choose install update.zip from flash card.

so.

1. when I runned new firmware from dload it didn't install. it was cycling at first level (1/2)

2. linux is good idea. but I'm not sure that it's will be profitable. maybe I have turned off access to partitions inside of phone

3. I can't install superoneclick as I'm not able to install any application.

I hope we are closer to some geniously idea. I have bought phone yesterday and we haven't service center in our city. So, I need to buy the other one. :mad:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
This is not so serious problem, it' s not hardware, it´ software related. And I think you cannot turn off access so easy.

The superoneclick is a pc application. You don't need to install something on device(if I remember well, because I use it once before a long time). You can try it.

And you can try linux too.

I don't think that this is a problem that only service can solve it.

What firmware you tried? Try another one. And better try to find the one that you device has(if you know it)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vladislavnm:
Thank you for positive opinion.

1. Will try to change firmware as you said. Try 2 more firmware from Huawei.

2. Superoneclick needs approval from phone, today night I wasn't able to run it.

3. I'll try Linux too.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vladislavnm:
Thank you very much for your excellent support. It's work now after trying of other firmware. Everything is excellent now. :)

I only noticed that battery is no very capacitive. :mad:

Im running on the latest nightly of cm7 and when i try to plug in my phone to my computer nothing happens. it charges but thats it. nothing pops up. there is nothing in the notification bar
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomTcom:
I'm on 33 and just checked on accessing the SD card and EasyTether. Both worked without issue.

I'm on Win 7, x64 laptop.

I would suggest seeing if the device appears anywhere in the Device Manager. If it doesn't try another USB port.

Also you could try reinstalling the drivers for the phone.

Finally, try another USB cable. Honestly, I had issues maintaining a connection with EasyTether and I used a USB cable for a BlackBerry and never had an issue since. Not sure why that is but it's something worth checking.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yatman60:
I updated my phone to the 2.10.605.1 ROM and it seems that since I've done it, whenever I receive a new voicemail message, the indicator in the title bar is not appearing so I have to rely on the missed call info to force me to check my voicemail.

Has anyone else seen this and have any ideas on how to resolve. And YES, I've checked my voicemail settings and the indicator is set to on.

Thanks for the help.

Snapdragon is a CPU not gpu.and it depends on model.for example aderno220 is said to be so powerful but 200is outdated
[XPERIA X10 General] ToonXW:

And it's fitted in our dear Galaxy S Hummingbird chipset.
[XPERIA X10 General] aimcr7:

Not snapdragon maybe you can change it to Tegra. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:

[XPERIA X10 General] goldiecalypso:
is it possible to know what kind of PowerVR GPUs installed on my device? SGX 530, 535 or 540? anybody knows a special app to analyze that ?
[XPERIA X10 General] maddes1402:
Sure it is possible. Simply search on gsmarena.com for your phone or download one of the thousand system info apps like this one.
[XPERIA X10 General] aR_ChRiS:

[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:

The cpu i'm not 100% sure of.

But i doubt they ignored that part.

Usually the gpu get ignored, so it's looking good for the NovaThor
[XPERIA X10 General] goldiecalypso:
i got many of them, the most advanced one only shows OpenGL ver or the GPU type (powerVR , Adreno or ...) but never the details such as SGX 530, 535 ,...
[XPERIA X10 General] anarchyuk:
on gsmarena find the phone you want to know about, find out the cpu, then google it.. for example google "msm8255 gpu" and you get hundreds of results telling you its the adreno 205..

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nerdcompdork11:
This is my first post ever so please forgive me if this is in the wrong section.

I am not new to rooting and/or cm7 or download mode. I have used odin on my fascinate and continuum. And I have also had cm 7 on 2 other phones, the Fascinate and the Droid Incredible. Late a few nights ago, I flashed back to stock eclair on my captivate and used kies to update to uckb1. I then rooted and and flashed cm7. Not thinking, I already knew i could not access download mode with hardware button combos, but i forgot. My cappy is running cm7 wonderfully!! However i went to flash back to stock so i could try kh3 and found i could not access download mode. I can get into recovery using both the power button in cm7 reboot recovery as well as adb reboot recovery. I have tried:

adb reboot download

adb shell

reboot download

heimdall one click un brick

The only other thing I have tried is installing the 3buttonfix.zip. It did not work though as I assumed it wouldn't.( Is the three button fix designed for rfs/bml partioning?)

I have already ordered a proffsionally made jig so I should be able to get into download mode when i receive it. But is there any other way?

Thanks in advance! Sorry if i sound like a noob!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Get a Jig for the future. I believe you can use terminal emulator and type in there:

su *enter*

reboot download *enter*
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nerdcompdork11:
I am getting my jig tomorrow! But terminal reboot download does not work either. I really just want to know if there is anyway to get back download mode without the jig. just curious. And if the 3buttonfix.zip is designed for bml/rfs partitions?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BloodSkin:
have you tried installing a different rom from rom manager? i dont know too much about that setup but its something worth looking into. that may fix your problem since CM7 is based on the open source version of android and likely doesnt have the typical bootloaders (i dont THINK anyways)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nerdcompdork11:
I tried flashing fasty 2 from rom manager. The phone reboots after install driectly into cm7 and still no download mode. This is what I expected as Fasty 2 is designed to run on top of the bml partitioning. And since cm 7 when installed converts to mtd, it does not have any effect. This is also why i suspect the 3buttonFix.zip will not help me any. Though I saw a post here on xda where someone flashed 3buttonFix to cm7 and was able to get into download mode again. It did not work for me though :(
[Wildfire General] snaketk:

[Wildfire General] markkamphorst:
Have you flashed Gapps? Google Apps... Maybe you can do it again en select Maps with it... :rolleyes:
[Wildfire General] bx19:
Google apps will not include Google maps.
[Wildfire General] ErwinP:
Not sure about that, the gapps that I flashed contained a file called "com.google.android.maps.jar" to be put in the system/framework folder, and a file called "com.google.android.maps.xml" was put in the "\system\etc\permissions" folder.

So doesn't this point out that gapps at least does something with google maps?

You can download gapps here.

Thanks for answering and sorry, I wasn't entirely clear. My stock (Sony Ericsson Neo) sms application kinda sucks so I'm looking for a faster alternative.

I just want to send regular SMS - that doesn't need internet. What I don't like is that most of these sms replacement apps can both read my contacts and access internet. I understand the "read contacts" and "read sms" and similar permissions but internet is not needed.

My phone is not rooted so I can't use firewall.

For additional features, maybe, but why would they need it for just sending and receiving SMS messages?

You sound like a prime candidate for LBE Privacy. You can specify exactly what permissions each individual app has, so you could use any SMS app you like and just turn off internet access. If the app still works, win!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nibras_reeza:
There are very few options for few. It's very possible that there's an SMS app that doesn't need internet but it must be hard to find.

Here are your options,

LBE Privacy Guard like mentioned by John. (Similar to UAC in Win7)

DroidWall or any firewall.

CM7.1 (Supports denying permissions to apps.)

PermBlocker.

Of course, all above options require you to be rooted.

There's an alternative if you don't have root or you don't want to root.

You must first download the app to phone or PC and obtain the apk file. Then, you can get an apk editor and modify the manifest xml to omit the internet access. Afterwards, you can install the modified apk.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenKranged:
LBE needs root I think.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] wxamav:
So, after 3 months I am still looking for a headset. My wishlist is as follows:

1. Wired, so that it can double as antenna for the built-in radio.

2. Remote (prev./next track, prev./next radio station).

3. Microphone for calls (with button to answer and end calls obviously!)

4. Volume control

5. In-ear design

6. Stereo (of course!).

I have searched numerous brands and models, even inquired directly. So far,

JAYS and KLIPSCH support have answered that they do not have such a model

in their product ranges. I am waiting for feedback from other manufacturers, but

I thought I 'd share the story in the meantime :)

So, does anyone know *for sure* of a wired headset that matches the above

criteria? Just for the record, I am using a BT Plantronics Discovery 650, which

is of course for calls only, and it works great (multipair etc).

[Galaxy S II Accessories] wxamav:
I have already contacted Klipsch Tech Support. Here is their feedback:

"Because our headphones with button control feature an Apple chip we cannot

guarantee the level of functionality they will have with other cell makes/models."

Also, the product's page on klipsch's site does not leave room for hope, and at

€80+ it's not something to experiment with.....

Sennheiser feedback just in: They say that MM30i and MM50i are compatible,

with the exception of volume control because "Android has no standard defined

for how to remotely control volume in the headset" (!! is that true????)

EDIT: Just checked. You probably mean Klipsch S4A. Yes, they seem to do the job

(no mention for radio station prev/next function though), together with the accompanying

App. Price must be around €80. It's just surprising that their Tech Support did not mention

anything to me!
