and take a closer look at the drivers, and possibly alter a driver?

Or can you replace a driver with another one from a different rom, and have the phone still work?

In a nutshell, I really like the sense roms, but want to find a driver that lets me control the softkey lights (sorry to be going on about this, but it's of great importance to me to get this working).

Apparently, this works with the original Dinc (though I only assume, from looking at apps like LEDs Hack), and I wonder if the "lights" driver from its rom could be used with the Dinc2.

I know nothing about creating Roms, but if there is a tutorial somewhere, I wouldn't mind taking a look.

Or if someone who knows what they are doing wants to tell me it's impossible...

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] siskiou:
I will keep the secret! :D

But I was really hoping to learn about more specifics, and find out if this is way too complicated to attempt for someone completely new to custom roms.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fix-this:
7zip does wonders for taking roms and themes apart.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knucklesmckay:
You cannot just simply take a Rom apart, mod it and then try to flash it to your phone. I believe it needs to be recompiled properly.

The way I make mods is to push items with root explorer in read/write mode. But make sure you have some backup and know how to manually get back into clockwork recovery because, more than often things including framework get messed up and your rom/phone will become non operational.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fix-this:
ive modded several roms and there frameworks with 7zip with no ill after effects. if you want to change the xml's you need to decompile the roms.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knucklesmckay:
Thanks for the info. I have always been curious about making a full theme from my mods. Ill have to look into this further.

I want to recalibrate my extended battery and wipe data because the operating system is calibrated to the normal battery. My phones currently rooted with frozen apps. I plan on defrosting them before I wipe data. I can't remember if I will need to re root my phone after a data wipe, also should I un root before I wipe the data for re calibration?
[Motorola Droid 3] shane1:
There is a recalibration app on the market. No need to wipe all data its free and seemed to work for me

[Motorola Droid 3] prstorero:
After a new calibration does it matter when u charge it and disconnect it? I know at first its bad cause it messes up the calibration but after that does it matter?
[Motorola Droid 3] slow88lx:
The whole idea of battery calibration is allowing the software to get a good picture of the battery's full potential. After it has that you do not need to worry yourself about how long you charge it or how often.
[Motorola Droid 3] prstorero:
Alright cool
[Motorola Droid 3] prstorero:
If I turn a bunch of stuff on to kill the battery faster so that I can charge it over night does that mess up the statistics or no? Like normally I won't have auto sync bluetooth gps and all that on but I turn it on just to kill the battery during calibration that way I can charge it over night but does switching those on during calibration mess up the statistics if they aren't normally used afterwards?
[Motorola Droid 3] slow88lx:
Your best bet is to kill the battery turn the phone off and charge it overnight. Then turn it on.

Find an hour long youtube video and play it a few times.
[Motorola Droid 3] prstorero:
Ya but but does turning on a bunch of stuff in order to kill the battery mess with the calibration since I only turned them on to kill it so I could charge it

hello guys,

have got SE xperia x10 from US,

have unlocked the same from AT&T to make it generic.

currently running on android 2.1

Firmware version

2.1 update 1

Baseband version

2.1.54

Kernel version

2.6.29

Build Number

2.1.A.0.435

I want to install xrecovery on my X10i, which i am unable uptill now.

My x1o is rooted somedays ago thru superoneclick.

can anyone suggest me the exact firmware to flash in my phone as i have unlocked my phone which was previously x10a US AT&T... and now its x10i generic.

Thanks.:)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark Nightmare:
You can install: http://www.multiupload.com/SR8R1B5KII

Using: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=920746

That's x10a AM-US GB 1233-822

US generic Gingerbread for x10a.

You can then root using: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1196421

And install xrecovery right after you're done and booted up.(You have to choose ask root perms on flashtool first before you can)

The option should be enabled on flashtool when you boot up.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evil_dancer:
Thanks Dark Nightmare,

done!!!.... kudos to the flash tool owners...

had a small prob after i had flashed the fw...

the phone wasnt detecting the memory card even if i had formated the same on the PC...

tried my memory card on other smart fone, and it worked perfectly fine...

solution: format in a nokia fone and u r done.... everything works perfectly after that....;)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rektech:
i got a Bionic and for txt messaging i like to use handcent and on my old Droid 1 i just disabled all the Txt messaging notifications for the default messaging application. but when i tried to do that with my Bionic i cant find the option that lets me turn off the popup feature of the default txt messaging app. i first looked in the settings of the defult app but all i see is the toggle to disable the notification in the status. and i disabled that but i still am getting the popups when people txt me.

can some one help me. were do i go to turn off the txt message popups?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] yohimbe35:
Are you talking about in the notification bar?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rektech:
when some one sent me a text it would popup on my screen as well as the status bar i just wanted the status bar only as a notification as well as my ring tone.

but never mind i figured it out for some reason it wasn't holding the popup settings in Handcent so when i disabled the popup in handcent it would just revert back so i thought it was just the factory messenger popping. but i fixed it. problem solved.

So my girlfriend got the desire and I want to upgrade it to gingerbread for her but I also want to get it rooted to remove the preinstalled rubbish. How can I do this? She is currently on 2.1 and all the guides I read are so confusing. There are so much different ways and all require to be downgraded.

What is the easiest way? to upgrade and have root.

Follow this to root. Once rooted, flash a good custom ROM with Gingerbread. I would suggest CyanogenMod 7.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
what about (apart from searching and also using the big video guide on the dev section - also linked in my sig for ease) - update to the gingerbread version from htc, then run revolutionary.io to s-off, and custom recovery, then flash a new rom with the junk removed...

depends if you want to give her something iphone like - MIUI, stock, cyanogen, or sense based, insertcoin/coolaces/coolbravos

you can optionally remove apps that you don't want at the same time with any of the above by either using rom editor app (find it in the general section) or removing them from the .zip yourself.

Sorry guys, normally I would NOT ask such a dippy-do question on XDA but it isn't for me.

A person I know has a Thunderbolt (I have an Epic 4G on Sprint, otherwise I'd know the answer already) and keeps getting bugged to run an update.

I'd like to apologize and say I don't now them that well and really should have followed my instinct and not rooted their phone, something that was backed up by the conversation we just had where pushing random "wipe" and "reset" buttons seemed like a good idea because "isn't that what I want to do?"...*sigh*

Anyway, can one of you lovely people point out where to snag the latest, ROOTED, plain jane (I don't care about odexed or de-odexed really, they just want it for tethering) update and if there is a radio update that needs to go along?

I don't know what version is current or, what was last, so digging through is frustrating heh.

Love r-type but expensive for an android port
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Jotamide:
The game is on sale today for $0.99!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
It plays flawlessly on the Play, I just don't really like R-Type as a game. While it was ahead of the time upon its release it is still a check-point based shmup that places heavy emphasis on power-ups (which explains the checkpoints a little bit) that falls apart at the later stages due to its "one right path" approach. A lot of the bosses have safe-zones and the game makes memorization a must (I know it is a part of the genre but it is far too intrusive in R-Type) while not being nearly as dynamic as the 90's shmups you can find through emulation or even DotEmu's Raiden Fighters ports. While my views on the game aren't exactly mainstream I just wanted to throw them out there; I'm only 23 so R-Type is a bit before my time but I simply can;t get over how much better the genre has become over time whenever I play it. Regardless, it is another solid port by DotEmu.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Jotamide:
I disagree. R-Type has much more finesse to its gameplay than Raiden: you can have autoshoot on, spam the bomb here and there, and call it a day. On R-Type, the fact that you can detach a portion of your ship (once you have the powerup), gives space to a much more tactical way of playing the game instead of smashing the "fire" button. It's a much more skill-demanding game, but I find it more rewarding because of that.

Also, R-Type has a mission mode that lets you progress as you beat each stage individually. On the Raiden Collection you must beat the game on arcade mode only, because mission mode is mostly a training mode: you can't unlock new missions that way. Besides, R-Type gives you an option to rotate the screen. On Raiden, if you wanna use the buttons of the XP you have to play with the ship moving towards the left, which is the most uncomfortable thing ever on a shmup. It's either bottom to top or left to right for me.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
Oh I was just discussing the game play itself, for various reasons R-Type is the better port to our phones. One of the main things leading me to prefer mid-90's shmups is my intense hate for check-point systems but I could go on and on about the genre and its evolution since it is my favorite genre.

Now, I updated Raiden Legacy yesterday only to find that the keys no longer function on the Play during game with the exception of the D-pad. It would be a real big pain in the ass if they dropped the ability to shoot the option off through the face buttons and I would definitely recommend someone confirm one way or another before picking this game up for the Play.

How to covert sim/phone contacts to google? is there an app that will convet these or do i really have to do all by hand?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:
You can go to phone> contacts> hit menu key and there is an import/export option. You can import or export all your contacts to google at once.

Also in the menu options under more> settings> you can set your phone so that all new contacts will go straight to google.

Hope this helps you.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HB66:
i only have the option to export to sim or sd card
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:
That is weird. You should also have options to import/export FROM Sim and sdcard.

What ROM are you on...maybe you got a bad download.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:
I have a thought..

Go to phone > contacts > menu > more > settings > Save new Contacts to. Then set google as your place to have your new contacts saved to.

When you are finished doing that reboot your phone. Then go back and see what your import/export options are. Hopefully you will now have the options to import/export FROM sdcard and Sim

**ALSO** In our phones main SETTINGS menu go to Accounts and sync then > Manage accounts > press the gmail account you want synced (make sure sync is ON). Make sure Sync contacts is checked. That will get you synced with google.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
The Accounts and Sync will do it for you. As Jerry D said I have also set the phone to save new contacts to google by default. Makes flashing new ROMs so much less of hassle, plus you can always access your contacts from wherever you can get online.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bagpack:
Export a vcf file to ur SD card, then re-import it to google contacts.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Make sure u disable facebook n' Twitter contacts syncing before exporting, otherwise when u resync to ur google contacts u will get duplicated contacts for both social networks.. At least that's what i remember out of my experience... also, should u wipe ur contacts after exporting ur list? (So u only see one cope of'em from google)

Bonus: If u use Go Contacts it can batch identify duplicated/related contacts and merge/delete them if needed. :)

How change the keyboard layout

(you have to be root and system mounted as rw)

Find your /system/user/keylayout/chacha-keypad-xxx.kl where xxx=your language

copy in replace mode this file to /system/user/keylayout/chacha-keypad.kl

Find your /system/user/keychars/chacha-keypad-xxx.kcm.bin where xxx=your language

copy in replace mode this file to /system/user/keychars/chacha-keypad.kcm.bin

Open this file with a text editor (I use rootexplorer) and change each key which is false : if your Z give a Y, go to the Z line and change it by Z (do it for each key which is a problem)

How install
