...Results

An immense thank you to everyone for your replies and guidance. As I needed to have this repaired as soon as possible, I decided to stay local. Here are the results of my research for JTAG repairs in Toronto:

Bongo Wireless - Markham

http://www.bongowireless.com/

Will charge $25 for initial diagnostic, but will go towards the $100 cost to JTAG. Probably the most reputable repair shop for this kind of job in Canada.

Micro Tech Repairs and Service - Scarborough

http://www.mtechservice.com/cell.html

Cost of JTAG repair is $75. Sounded very knowledgeable over the phone and was quick to respond to e-mails.

Ming Wireless - Downtown (University/Dundas)

http://www.mingwireless.com/

Cost of repair is $50. Excellent, speedy service and helpful front staff.

In the end, I ended up going with Ming as it was the most accessible and also because of the price. They had it fixed and flashed with a working bootloader in about two hours. Hopefully this helps those in the GTA looking for similar work. Thanks to everyone for your recommendations. Mods you may close this thread.
[Focus General] lavike:
My Focus was connecting fine with my computer. Today I connected my phone and I got an error saying that the driver did not install correctly. I then was told that there was a newer driver available. So I followed the link and my system wanted to install the Samsund PC Studio 3 software. I thought it might have something to do with the Mango deployment so I tried installing. I kept getting an error that asked me if I wanted to install the unsigned driver/software. I answered "yes" about 6 times and then I started to say "no" because I thought the install was in an infinite loop.

Anyway, I tried uninstalling and I couldn't get all of the Samsung stuff uninstalled. The worst part of it is that when I hook up my phone, Zune won't open.

Can anyone help?
[Focus General] lavike:
Well I finally found and got the Samsung PC Studio 3 drivers to reinstall but the phone won't connect or sync to Zune. Ugh!!!!
[Focus General] lavike:
After a bunch of painful hours on voice tech support to MS and chat tech support on Samsung, I finally got my phone working again. I had to do a hard reset of my phone.

I had tried to connect my Focus to different computers with Zune and none of them would recognize my phone.

If you are doing an update and it asks you to install Samsung PC Studio 3, DO NOT DO IT! This software isn't even intended for Windows Phone 7 phones. I'm not sure what happened but something got hosed.

As stated by niwa2 in the Moray-thread: simply put these two files in your system/app folder and remove "phonesky.apk" from there, that should work fine. Maybe clearing cache and dalvik could be helpful, I don't know.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gauvins:
It is rooted (in order to restore some apps with Titanium). Looks like this prevents OTA updates. Not important for this one, but I don't want to be stuck with this build forever.

1) This is for a Canadian (Bell) 4G. I couldn't locate the exact ROM anywhere. What do you suggest? (could I try to flash the European ROM? If this fails, will I be able to restore my current ROM -- I have a nAndroid -- from CWM?)

2) I do not have easy access to Windows machines. Can I simply put the .img files in a zipped folder (e.g. update.zip) and use ROM Manager to push the ROM?

Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] eedarb:
So I rooted and did the S-off goodies today and went to flash Leedroid rom through Rom Manager. I noticed CWM flash while I was in Rom Manager but didnt know the consequences. So I flashed and got stuck on the white HTC screen and it eventually truned off. So now I have a battery close to dead and a phone that wont charge while its off. When I can turn it on, HBOOT says no image and I cant get into recovery, it just hangs on white HTC screen. Where do I go from here? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Strange issue. I only get data on 4g, switch to cdma only and cannot pick up a signal on 3g. So any place I can't get a 4g signal, I don't have data. Any idea?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Absolute_Zero:

"CDMA only" is exactly what it says...just voice so not getting 3g with that set is expected. If you wanted voice and 3g without LTE then try CDMA w/ evdo.

My friend bought the phone from a friend, and when he turned it on, it was stuck in a bootloop. I went into recovery and found that the WHOLE firmware was gone! There's no recovery image or anything.

I need the original firmware or something that has EVERYTHING. I don't care if it's bloated or not. Just something that will make this phone work again.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
I'm pretty sure that the "entire firmware" isn't gone simply because you got into a custom recovery. I'd like to help, but I can't identify a problem.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonage:
It won't let me load anything. I tried putting an update.zip on it, but the phone is missing some things.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
I would go here:

If it has a custom recovery, probably has root/s off. What probably happened is that the guy selling it did a full wipe in recovery which wipes the ROM. Did that accidentally on my DS7 before I sold it.

I would download install the rooted/deodexed from the link above, put it on the sd card, and flash it from recovery. good luck.

I had asked help for getting the drivers installed in my laptop.I have been trying for days and different solutions to make my laptop recognize my x10i but culdnt succeed.

But now i found the solution.I just inserted half of the usb cable into the usb port of the laptop.I didnt fully plug it in.It may sound stupid but it worked.

I thought i'll answer in my thread, but both of them are closed.
[XPERIA X10 General] Hzu:
That means your PC USB port is loose. Just like mine, I have to plug in half of the USB into the port or it will keep plug in and plug out all the time.

yea..is there anyways i can get the port in my phone fixed.Is it gonna be costly?
[XPERIA X10 General] Hzu:
I don't think its your phone problem. It may be related to your laptop USB port as the device still get Detected.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Nipqer:
Someone asked about how to change and edit the language settings for sense based roms, so I thought I'd write a small guide.

This seems to only work for Sense 2 roms

The language and locale settings for sense based roms have to do with the cid, which tells where the phone is from.

First off, we need to know your backup-cid, which can be found by putting:

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17 bs=1 count=8 2>/dev/null; echo

in either adb shell, or terminal emulator.

This will spit out an 8 character string, which will be something like "HTC__001"

Next, the cid files are stored in /system/customize/CID/ on the phone in xml format. They are not too hard to modify with a text editor, and you should be able to work out what values you want where.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<customization_form>
<category name="system">
<module name="locale">
<function>
<set name="single">
<item name="total_list">[COLOR="Red"]en_NZ;en_AU;en_GB;en_US;fr_FR;[/COLOR]</item>
<item type="boolean" name="[COLOR="Red"]en_NZ[/COLOR]">yes</item>
<item type="boolean" name="[COLOR="Red"]en_AU[/COLOR]">yes</item>
<item type="boolean" name="[COLOR="Red"]en_GB[/COLOR]">yes</item>
<item type="boolean" name="[COLOR="Red"]en_US[/COLOR]">yes</item>
<item type="boolean" name="[COLOR="Red"]fr_FR[/COLOR]">yes</item>
</set>
</function>
</module>

That is part of my modified cid.xml, the parts you want to change are in red.

Now, I don't know if we can just swap out the new cid.xml file, and re-run the setup after a reboot to get our language options.

What I did was create a flashable zip to replace the cid.xml file after installing a sense rom.

I have attached a zip, so you just open it up, and swap out the file in zip/system/customize/CID/ with a modified cid.xml, and then flash the zip after flashing a sense rom.

Do you know how I can change the hardware keyboard language? Can I disable the spelling or set it to german?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Nipqer:
I'm not sure exactly, but look under Language & Keyboard settings, and I think it's under the dafault soft keyboard settings that the Hardware keyboard settings are kept.

I'm running cyanogen at the moment, so this is only from memory for sense.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigmatl:
Are there any roms or other easy ways to increase the size of the partition /data/data on the Droid Incredible? To this day, all I really find are ways to save space in there. That's been covered - everything from Cachemate to not using certain apps. I want to know if there are any roms out there that use space from internal or other areas and reroute them so that /data/data shows more space. Any help would be appreciated.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Keith:

I've run into this a lot lately. Even my Eris never had this problem. :eek:
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
No roms do it currently. But its probably doable.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JeramyEggs:
There is an app on the market called Notenoughspace. I have never used it, but it is supposed to take stuff out of your data/data, and insert it somewhere else. I here it is tricky, so be careful if you use it. I really don't know much about it. The first couple of times I ran into this problem it drove me crazy. Have you read all of the threads for what causes this? Stay away from Facebook. If you sync contacts in Facebook it can cause this. I am a crackflasher, so I rarely run into the problem. I don't think that a Rom can fix this, but I am a newb myself. Really just wanted TP help since I saw your disgruntled post in the developers section....good luck
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigmatl:
Thanks for the reply. But here's the thing. Please let's not go into the likes of notenoughspace and cachemate and whiping out facebook. This is what people say in EVERY thread on this from the beginning of the droid incredible.

I'm not looking for a solution that at best can let an extra app or 2 get installed on the droid incredible. I'm looking for a way to INCREASE the size of the /data/data partition by way of taking some unused space from other areas like system or cache or better yet, from that pointless internal storage (for all the SD card users).

There is a lot of extra space on these phones. Thus it is nonsensical to have a measly 150mb to use in that area.

AS this phone is for a friend (and I generally do the upgrading or fixing), I do not experience this on my photon nor do I experience it on my Iconia tab. There was a limit for /data/data on my evo but it was about twice the Droid Incredible I believe.

So this most likely has to be a partition issue. Is there really no fix for it? Since it's not a hardware limit, I'm surprised as I've seen some out of this world ROMs for the device (like Skyraider's which I hoped would make it to the Evo when I had that).
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eirruth:
I have had the same problem, and I haven't seen any roms that come close to solving it. And there is no quick and easy solution.

The best work around I could find was to mod the stock rom and add Dark Tremor's APP2SD, and use notenoughspace.

With dtapps2sd you have to partiton the SD card so that you have a ext3 partition on it that can be mounted and apps can be ran from it. It does this for /data/app and a couple of other folders.

Notenoughspace will let you move folders in /data/data to the sd partition that dtapps2sd has mounted, and that survive through a reboot. The extra partition option is what you would use, not the NES partition.

Using this work around I have about 300 apps on my phone, and about 70mb free in /data/data.

My Android version is GB 2.3.4 (build 4.06.605.3).
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
Bootmanager will install the whole rom on /sdcard or emmc storage and as an added bonus, /data and /data/data are all in one image so you have shared space. By default you have 950 MB to share for apps and app data. As an added bonus you have the ability to boot multiple roms and have them all loaded at once. It's available on the market and the devs who made it are awesome. However it costs a few dollars.

If you don't want to go that route then it's possible to create an image on the sdcard or emmc and symlink it to /data/data and you could set the size of the file. Then the ramdisk would need to be modified and maybe a couple of things done on the rom. You asked for an easy way and this is one but not easy though. Bootmanager is pretty easy though and no coding changes need to be done to the roms and it will leave your original rom intact.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DHowett:
I've been wondering about this as well.

I've tried a couple different approaches, and ended up sticking with one: it takes some setup overhead for every ROM I install, but it helps a lot.

I ended up deleting the datadata mount from init.inc.rc in boot.img (get ROM, unpack, edit init.inc.rc, repack, flash), and booting in recovery mode to move the data from (mtd@datadata)/ over to (mmcblk0p1)/data (which is now just a subdir on the 768MB /data partition.)

Initial tests repartitioning mmcblk0 (houses /data, /cache, and /emmc) to make /data larger for this purpose didn't work out well: the bootloader rewrites the MBR/partition table when it finds that they don't match metrics it likes. /emmc can not really be reformatted because the bootloader updates some bits that it expects to be FAT32 on boot time as well, corrupting other filesystems.

Why on earth HTC would ship a phone in this day and age with such a crippled storage layout is beyond me.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
That doesn't sound too difficult (i moved CM7 from emmc img to the actual phone partitions so that should be pretty simple). The only downside is you do lose space for apps (easily solved with apps2sd). I haven't seen you around since you posted your idea for multiboot. Been busy?

Well, the emmc method would be a loopback image which would not touch the fat32 filesystem.

Or if you're doing nightlies for instance once you mod the boot.img just add it to each new nightly.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JeramyEggs:
Would Conap's dual boot work the same way? I am comfortable with this, and all the coding is intimidating for this newb. Would one of you smarter members put out a small guide as to exactly how to do this. I know it is time consuming, but it would really be worth it to us low lifes. Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwalger:
How can you do this?

Wow, that sounds like a great idea. Like the above poster, can I also ask if someone who knows how would write up some instructions on how to to this? It certainly would be appreciated by many! With Gingerbread, there's not much Incredible users can do about the tiny /data size. Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GnatGoSplat:
I'm encountering this issue with 384MB of phone storage free and nearly 4GB of SD free. When I checked, I only had 14.5MB free in /data/data. 150MB for this is ridiculous! I would appreciate any fix, preferably one I can set and forget (don't want to have to constantly move or create symlinks for ever new app I install).
