[HTC Sensation] bookdude:
anyone using nimbuzz on their sensation? is there a better app that combines all 3 im platforms into 1 app without too much lag? thanks.
[HTC Sensation] mathrania:
eBuddy is better...but i havent seen any app combining all with SMS/Messaging...
[HTC Sensation] bookdude:
thanks for the input. when i originally read about nimbuzz, i though they had figured out a way to combine tmobile or any other cell plan text messaging with an im client. that would be great! but till that happens, i'll be using imo. compared to nimbuzz and ebuddy it works better for me.
[Thunderbolt General] wolfnumba1:
Strange issue. When i am reading news feeds in the stock browser and there is a video embedded in a webpage (i.e. playing a review video on engagdget) and i click play on the video inside the browser, it loads the sound but no video shows. Not until I open the video inside the youtube app does the video show. Any resolutions for this issue? I am running CM7 on my thunderbolt.
[Thunderbolt General] keith.mcintyre26:
This is a known issue with CM7. Try this fix though. http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/25350-fix-for-flash-103-on-cm7/
[Vega General] dealstokie:
Hi everyone

I had the little sister of the Vega - Amico , I need to do a hard reset, cant work out how ? Advent wont talk to me as I dont have the receipt.

Anyone know how to do this? Is it the same drivers and way as the Vega?

Thanks everyone :)
[Vega General] O_G:
The amico runs android 2.1 and uses a different chipset, so the Vega software will not work. You should be able to hard reset from within the settings menu.
[Vega General] dealstokie:
Hi

Thanks for your reply, the problem is I have a lock on the home screen, I bought it locked and was hoping to flash to get rid of said lock !
[Vega General] O_G:
If nothing comes up from a search, I would email advent. Maybe they can provide you with a link to the amico software, they should do that even without proof of purchase. Just say you got it second hand. Good luck.

[Droid 2 Global Android Development] JayXL14:
Great news!

Any idea if there's a way to make it work with the unlock from TBH for D2G?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] Weaknespase:
Maybe a good idea to flash 2.2.29 bp codegroup (cg5) again after update to .606/.607, and apply TBH band unlock hack. Or maybe not, and this will brick you phone.

It's been a long time after using MIUI on Milestone, and I really miss this rom.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] JayXL14:
I'm asking if it will work though?

Will this rom work with the band unlock?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] leobg:
No.

Radio and Kernel come in a single signed image. You can't use Gingerbread base with the old kernel and you need the old baseband to use TBH band unlock.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] trapzz:
can you use the Infuse on Straight Talk? If so, how?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mistarose:
Yeah i am using my infuse on straight talk.

Buy a Nokia e71 or the other exspensive Nokia. You may also be able to buy the new android phone offered by straight talk.

Buy a 45 dollar month long plan card.

Activate the phone you buy.

Place the sim card in your infuse and it will work right away for calls with no unlocking needed.

Search for android straight talk APN settings and input them into your phone.

Viola.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] trapzz:
will 4g work?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] soryazlawl:
yeah, 50mbs dude! straight talk is the way to go
[Samsung Infuse 4G] trapzz:
any problems with sending and receiving mms?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hegemytouch:
I cant wait till my plan is over at att i might jump on this...it was either this or boost mobile...

S7 Infuse 1.6 Ghz
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hegemytouch:
Now if my infuse is unlocked do i still have to go through all this or just activate a straight talk phone and pop the sim in and have all the mms calls and data goodness?

S7 Infuse 1.6 Ghz
[Samsung Infuse 4G] entropism:
You don't even have to unlock the phone if it was AT&T to begin with.

Buy the Nokia e71, activate it and port your number. Take the SIM out of the nokia, put it in the Infuse. Connect to wifi and download "APN Backup & Restore" from the market.

Download this file, unzip it, and put the xml file in /sdcard/APNBackupRestore

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Bronk93:
Somewhat off topic but will this work for the Inspire as well?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mistarose:
Yes, pretty much any android phone that takes sims, except for this...

It's best to get an At&t phone if you want the fastest data. If you have a t-mobile phone, it will work (if unlocked), but you won't get 4 or even 3g. Other phones from around the world would probably work, no guarantees though.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
A few comments - while I don't have direct personal experience with this, this is what I believe is the case from a few conversations on IRC:

1) You must buy one of the $200 Nokias. All of ST's other phones come with SIMs that are somehow locked to the phone they were sold with. (Kind of the counterpart to a locked phone - these are locked SIMs!)

2) After activating with the Nokia, you must keep the device. If you sell it and someone else activates service with it, your service will be shut off.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Longcat14:
Yep, same thing I heard. I'm fine witb AT&T for now, they piss me off, straight talk, here I come!

What ways can i improve battery life with revolution hd, can i turn off fast dormency? What kernels do you suggest? etc.etc. also im going to downclock back to 1.2ghz.
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
Have you tried charging to 100%, then going into recovery > advanced > wipe battery stats. That worked for me. Hope it does the same for you.
[HTC Sensation] DaClowns:
Here are my tips!

)> If you don't need brightness on all the way, don't keep it on all the way.

)> Always have bluetooth and GPS off when you do not need them on.

)> If you have a VERY strong connection to a wifi, such as home, use that over 4g.

)> Settings > Accounts and Sync. If you don't need syncing on for email, or facebook, etc, turn it off!

)> Less widgets! Yes they look cool, but are always running and hurt your battery!

)> Don't use auto task killers! Every once in a while just open task manager and end apps that are still running.

)> Most people don't do this, but if you use a solid black wallpaper, It supposedly has been proven to keep an extra 7% power from 100% to 0%. Compared to a phone with a colorfull wallpaper. So if 2 phones had 100% power, one with rainbow wallpaper one with black, if left to run out form 100%, the rainbow would die and black would have 7% battery left still.

)> NO LIVE WALLPAPERS!

)> Set screen timeout to 30 seconds or less.

These are my power saving tips!

I recommend getting this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2x1900mAh-B...Accessories&hash=item336b8c7db4#ht_4803wt_969

Anker batteries are recommended for the Sensation, they are a solid battery and the stock battery is 1520 mAh, this is a 1900 mAh, much as well have the 1900 mAh in, and just carry around the 1520!

If I helped you, it helps me if you hit thanks!
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
Swipe beta for 2.3.4 that will work on ATRIX port. Can't find it anywhere. Does anyone got a link?
[Motorola Droid X2] X0dus:
Did you try registering for the swype beta and d/l the installer?

http://beta.swype.com/android/create/
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
Thanks, didn't show a site in the google search.

Sent from my GBP7 DROID x2
[Motorola Droid X2] X0dus:
Np. Make sure to uninstall Swype.apk, swypecore.lib in system/lib and then reboot and clear cache and dalvik. After reboot then install the installer. I've had numerous Swype fc when I didn't do it this way. :/
[Motorola Droid X2] TXI Kaze:
Erm, thought Swype came with the port? Did with mine, anyway.
[Motorola Droid X2] X0dus:
That version is outdated..
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
Had serious FC issues with this and I couldnt find the data files to clean haha. But this worked good. Thanks
[Motorola Droid X2] nism240sx:
do you know if this should work with cm7 i tried it and it works fine till i reboot them it just keeps force closing
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
I removed the apk and the library files, rebooted into BSR, cleared cache and dalvik and then rebooted.

I then downloaded the beta and installed it. Then, if I go into Settings->Language & keyboard->Swype Settings, it FCs. If I try to set the input type to Swype, it FCs as well.

I tried grabbing the Swype.apk and the lib.so file from Eclipse 1.3 and installed that. No force closes, but swyping doesn't work. In fact, I get a message that since it's from a different phone, some functionality may be limited. But, it doesn't FC.
[Motorola Droid X2] jeremy46er:
I am using Swype beta on my cm7dx2 with no issues at all. I installed the Swype installer which downloaded and installed Swype beta for me. I attached a screenie so you could see the version.
[Motorola Droid X2] slinker1:
+1 on this works a champ for me.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Hmm, I can't get it to work. It keeps FCing on me no matter what I try. I rebooted, cleared the cache and dalvik in BSR and nothing.

Maybe what I'll do today is SBF back 2.3.4 and then put CM7 beta on it. Before, I just flashed the beta over the alpha. Not sure if that was the problem or not.

UPDATE: Okay, I SBF'd back to 2.3.4, rooted and install CM7 beta. Installed Swype beta and all is well.

So, moral of the story is, you really SHOULD sbf back to 2.3.4 no matter what when installing CM7. I don't care what others have stated, but it's just safer to start with a clean slate. In fact, I have noticed even better performance than before. I really think some remnants from the Alpha were causing some of the issues I was seeing with Swype.
[Motorola Droid X2] Pixelation:
I installed into CM7 via Titanium Backup, I only started having FC issues(toasts) after I had updated the version. I know this is NOT a CM7 issue, I have used the same apk on multiple installs and multiple ROM's, Swype works great, I just don't update it.
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
I updated swype beta without errors on cm7.. not sure, but I had issues with TiBu when I first went to cm7... but Those issues somehow worked themselves out. But non the less, I suggest installing the Beta Installer for swype, unless you are deving a ROM and then, just put the files in the correct areas and your fine.
[Motorola Droid X2] reaktorblue:
When I installed CM7 everything was fresh. I made sure to do the big 3 more times than required just because. With that said, after everything was installed I installed Swype Beta from the installer.

It seems to work just fine for the most part however, some functionality appears to be broken. In the options I have suggestions for words disabled yet, the suggestions still appear.

I also have words that seem to appear, such as, "Sooooo" which I've never said, nor added to the dictionary. Previously, when a word was entered into the dictionary that did not belong, I used to be able to highlight the word and press the swype key to remove it, this does not seem to be the case anymore. In addition, the above word was not found in the dictionary when accessing it from the settings menu.

All in all, it does work, just some minor annoyances for me a this time. No show stoppers though.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Since flashing CM7DX2 almost every app i put back using TiBu had had problems. Sometimes clearing data for the app fixed other times had to reinstall using the apk and then restore data only from TiBu. I've seen several posts saying TiBu doesn't play well with CM7. As for Swype beta i installed it immediately after flashing CM7 using the installer and have had no issues at all with it.
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
But you will have to remove the regular Swype first.

Tapin' the Talk on the xSquared
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
I did not have too. Flashed CM7DX2 over stock rooted 2.3.4 without sbf and without removing stock Swype keyboard.

After flashing installed Swype beta without deleting any files. Unlike the stock 2.3.4 ROM, Swype is not installed with CM7DX2 ROM.
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
Right, but inn any other run you will need to remove Swype.

I got the beta to work cm7, no issues.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Lupusoff:
It has it but you can only join hangouts initiated by other people, you can't start one from the phone
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] TheSopranos16:
Thats correct...and ridiculous on Google's part. Not that it matters, no one is on Google+. I use it and invited a few people but mostly people don't care because its only relevant if a significant percentage of people you know are using it...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] borchgrevink:
Too lame! Is this a SGS2 issue or a general issue?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] djnoicatse:
Its not an issue for any of them. Google just made it that way. Im sure that an update in the near future will allow us to initiate a hangout from our phones.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJWillB:
Hi. I am having problems with my Galaxy S2. I don't remember the screen pin!

I have done a hard reset, wiped the phone and cacheand even re-flashed the ROM (I'm using Villain 2.5). When I start the phone it goes to the normal first time setup screens, I sync it with my google account etc but as soon as I leave it for a few mins it asks me for the screen lock pin again!!!

I reset it again and this time tried to turn off the screen lock via the settings but to do this it needs the old pin, which I don't remember! Please help!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Ensure backup data is not selected in the Privacy settings. Otherwise google will restore the lock after it syncs.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djwill.b:
No it isn't. I even tried making a new google account after i wiped the phone and that didn't work either! I can't use my phone now grrrr!!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coffmad:
try a reflash using odin maybe?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djwill.b:
yeah i tried that too using villians 1.0 rom :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Did you full wipe all the partitions prior to re-flashing?

Also google leaves some files on your sdcard or ext sdcard. Delete those too, even fresh format to make sure. I think they are android secure & lost. After first boot, as before, ensure backup data & restore is unchecked in privacy.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djwill.b:
Yeah I set it to USB mode and deleted every file on it and formatted the memory card. Still no luck :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
How about full wipe, reflash, boot (no google account setup), uncheck all google privacy settings, reboot, if no lock pin, then setup google and sync......and see what happens.

Make sure you don't restore system data from Titanium (ie accounts). Wifi should be safe.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djwill.b:
Given that a go and....it is still asking for the pin! It starts up fine after a flash and a wipe but then as soon as it goes to standby it asks for the pin again! If I wip it again and don't let it go to standby and go to the screen pin in the settings menu it still asks me to confirm the pin before I can turn it off
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brieuwers:
Pin is stored in efs. If you have a backup of your efs you could try phone efs clear in odin. But then you have to restore your efs map.

DO NOT TRY THIS IF YOU DONT HAVE A BACKUP OF YOUR EFS MAP, YOU WILL LOSE YOUR IMEI
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
I've just dl "GSII_Repair" free from market and backed up the efs folder to sdcard. I've also copied it to pc and ext sdcard as well, safe keeping. The dev says can repair as well, but no comments as yet.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djwill.b:
What would happen if I lose my imei? I will do a search now to find out how to make a backup of my efs
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djwill.b:
Ive been away on holiday without my Galaxy as i still couldnt get it working. I tried the efs clear and still no luck it still asks for the password!

Any ideas? Surely someone else has forgotten their screen pin before?!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
As its been a while and you still have no joy.....

Flash all back to stock, reset counter with usb jig, and drop it into a service centre.

Sorry can't come up with anything else, because if you screw up the efs, you could be in a world of further hurt.

Just remember to back it up next time. Sorry
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nutmegy:
try this....

Simple maybe?

Double Tap home button..

[Dell Venue] rapol.goutham:
Here I am uploading android partition dumps, you can use these files to fix your bricked devices. These images were rooted stock dumps of Indian version, build number is 13040. Use fastboot method to flash these images.

Warning: Please use them only if your device was bricked.

boot.img

recovery.img

recovery_bak.img

system.img

All those dumps were created using "yaffs" tool.

Now download the attached files below, extract fastboot+adb file and extact its contents to "c:\tools\", such that adb.exe and other files will be in c:\tools\ folder.

Now extract and install the second file (venue drivers windows 7).

Now go to command prompt and switch to "c:\tools" directory (cd c:\tools).

Now enter the following commands at c:\tools\>,

c:\tools\>fastboot flash system system.img (this command flashes system.img to system partition).

simillarly.

c:\tools\>fastboot flash boot boot.img

c:\tools\>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

syntax:

\>fastboot flash []

Hope this guide helps...

Please let me know if you are successful...

Please click on THANKS if you find it useful.

Thank you...:D
[Dell Venue] rapol.goutham:
If you have no idea on how to flash those dumps please let me know. I can post step by step procedure on how to flash them if you need.
[Dell Venue] TheManii:
After checking the contents, I reupload the set to match the set I already have.

Can you confirm that these images are clean, unmodified dumps? The ones I already have come from brand new devices and this was the first thing done to them. (they were used slightly by normal users, but that wont affect it, they didnt touch anything in /system beyond rooting it to dump the partitions)

Edit: I have downloaded them and compared them to the dumps I already have, 304 is slightly modified but I'm pretty sure I was able to fix it back to likely what it shipped with.
[Dell Venue] rapol.goutham:
Now I was out of my wifi coverage area, ill test them when I go home.
[Dell Venue] rapol.goutham:
I mean ill test your build when i go home.
[Dell Venue] Omnichron:
thanx!!!!!!!:)
[Dell Venue] Omnichron:
how do I do it?!!!!
[Dell Venue] rapol.goutham:
Follow the above guide. And those drivers works with Windows 7 only, if you need drivers for windows xp plz let me know, ill upload them later, because i was running my internet on slower connection.
[Dell Venue] TheManii:
Dont mean to sound ungrateful,

but you should use the cleaned copy I posted on here.

The dump you posted was strangely missing a couple files and still had the dump tools. I cleaned it up and reincluded files that were missing.

It's only a couple files and doesnt really change how it works. But I only host as close to original copies that I can. The cleaned one should be virtually identical to a fresh install.

Just as much I actively maintain the fastboot+adb.zip package. The file name doesnt change as it's merely a copy of the latest one. You can check the folder it's in and older revs are there.
[Dell Venue] rapol.goutham:
Hey manii, as you told me before that you don't have Dell Venue but Dell Streak, then how could you tell that those dumps are were missing some files? Those are the dumps that I was currently running on my Venue, and I haven't experienced any problem till now.

And i can't guarantee that the files you feel that were missing from Dell Venue when compared with Dell Streak works on Dell Venue.

If you want to share this builld in your forums leave the dumps as it is and share them, so that no bugs will arise. :)
