Hi all.

Perhaps this is a newbie query but here you go.

I've been flashing stock rooted OTA's from the beginning, and always chose Odexed over Deodexed I suppose because of file size. Now, I'm looking to diversify and have the ability to theme etc.

Can I flash a deodexed over an odexed rooted 4.53.651.1 OTA with out data loss?

I assume I can just wipe dalvik, and cache then apply yes?

The specific thread I'm referring to is here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17642327&postcount=1

As I'd like to incorporate this with out flashing an entirely new rom. I'm cool with stock rooted goodness.

Thanks!!

This is not a question board. Might want to post that HERE
[EVO 4G Android Development] theidlemonk:
I don't think you can flash a deodexed over odexed...reason being the deodexed ROM will just overwrite the current files without removing the .odex files from the system...
[EVO 4G Android Development] m20120:
But you could probably get away with it it you wiped System, Dalvik and Cache (keeping Data) before flashing the Deodexed ROM. I have always wiped System before flashing a ROM just as a precaution but I believe flashing a ROM already does that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] skbgiants:
Thanks. However if you don't know the the answer to the question, despite it being placed in the "wrong" thread, why do you feel the need to moderate it? Thanks to the others for their replies.

Take a pill man.. Jesus.

[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Excuse bigdee. Some people just get frustrated with the fact that people post questions in the development section when there is a questions and answers section the same place one will find development. Others assume people read the forum rules and investigate the forum structure before posting. I wouldn't say he was moderating, more so informing you of where to post questions so threads like these don't end up where they are not supposed to.

Hope you understand :D

Nothing afaik, but MIUI will most likely not support 4g tho.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Lonewuhf:
I often wonder why everyone is so excited about the CM roms. I've used them in the past and have never taken a liking to them. I'd take the Synergy roms any day over the CM roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] churro7:
CM7 ftw

10char
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
CM is awesome but CM support also opens the door for general AOSP support.

And everyone knows that AOSP is superior.

To the op: The SGS2 has CM support so I would definitely expect CM7 for this phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Lonewuhf:
I actually dislike AOSP for the most part, although I guess I do see the draw to it. I've always just found that CM roms left me wanting more out of it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
I used to feel like that...but that was before things like the "notification power widgets" and all the other options now standard.

CM7 probably offers the largest combinations of different choices for things like lockscreens and so forth.

The theme is the only thing that I believe needs modification.

I use Honeybread and I change the font and it's lovely.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sph33r:
FTFY.

MIUI will never ever ever ever have Wimax. Sprint hasn't even rolled out any new sites with it because they know it's a flop so there's almost zero chance of convincing the Chinese it's important to add to their ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Thannatos:
who cares, 3g does the job more than well enough, and there is so little wimax coverage its downright laughable. I just want the rest of the MIUI functionality and look because that rom is absolutely phenomenal
[Defy General] aks.techscience:
Hi everyone.....I want to install cm7 on my defy and I've downloaded 2ndinit version 1.9 but when I try to install it says I hav to enable usb debugging...so should I connect it to the comp while installing? ...also I've heard the latest version of 2ndinit causes problems for cm7 and that I should use v1.4.2 instead...wat should I do?....sorry if the questions seem stupid....and thanks in advance
[Defy General] tegezan:
enable usb debugging means Setting -> Applications -> Development -> mark debugging
[Defy General] rawfire:
Exactly Enable Debugging mode as said above.

Simply Root it > Reboot > 2ndinit > 0.6.1 [I think] Stable for CMs

Once it installs, reboot & choose recovery > custom recovery

Flash via zip file > CM7................

Best of Luck

hey anyone know how to set an MP3 as a ringtone? i put a folder called "Ringtones" on my SD card, but it doesn't seem to pop up under phone ringtones in settings. is there some simple thing i'm missing?
[LG Thrill 4G] Spartoi:
Maybe your placing it wrong. Using Root Explorer, go to System > Media > Audio > Ringtones

and place your .mp3 in that folder, reboot your phone, and the .mp3 should now be an available ringtone.

Alternatively, you can also use an app called Ringdroid.
[LG Thrill 4G] alipanga:

[LG Thrill 4G] quarlow:
Also, I could not set a mp3 as a ringtone, file size limit. I use mp3 ringtone on the market (first free app after searching "ringtone maker"). Don't know if ringdroid offers this, but with that app I can clip the song to pull out the part I want as the tone. It can set them as ringtone or notification tone.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lekhwani:
My Samsung focus arrived yesterday. I got the notification for an update. This may be for nodo. Mango is also about be rolled out.

So first thing to do is install zune, which requires at least win xp service pack 3.

My problem is my laptop came with pre installed windows XP service pack 2.

So, can anybody guide me on this? Are there some hassles in upgrading to sp3? I searched the net and micro soft site and others was pointing me to a file bigger than 300 MB. I also read some guys had some problems in already installed data. What is the safest way in my situation?

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abe F:
My personal preference is to download the distribution file (300+MB) and install from that. My experiance using Windows update has not been good. Installs some undates, reboot, install some updates, reboot, etc, etc. Not sure if its smarter now or not, why chance it.

If you are that far behind in the OS, you may also find an issue with the Windows update agent after you install SP3. Without the latest agent, Zune may not update properly and Windows update website may not update you properly. Earlier this week this happened on both my XP Pro (w/ SP3) machine and a Vista Home Premium machine. So if you get the Zune update errors, you will need to get the latest update agent.

The microsoft knowledge base article is 949104

(I Can't post links so you will have to google 949104 to get to the MS kb article)

Hope this helps.

ok i rooted my phone using the revolotion root and unrevoked where i had to enter my phones id to unlock the security and install superuser through recovery. i tried flashing red synergy rom from these forums its on first page of themes and phone just keeps boot looping ? i did perform wipe cache and wipe data before i did it ... now i used ot have droidx and when this happend i would just restore the phone with rsd lite how do i restore my evo4g?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infamousteeboy:
Well before flashing the ROM did you create a back up?

And when ever your flashing a ROM your suppose to do a FULL WIPE not just cache and dalvik
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rnudles:
no used to doing this on droidx and i would just start from scratch if a flash didnt go through good
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rnudles:
i read you cant flash roms with unrevoked is that true ? i can also still get into clockwork recovery should i just try another rom ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikedavis120:
You can flash roms fine with revolutionary and the version of cwm it installs. Try booting to recovery wipe data cache and dalvik cache, reflash ROM and boot to system.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rnudles:
i see wipe cache and wipe data were is wipe delvik cache ?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infamousteeboy:
Mikes gonna have to help you in this I know Nuthin about CWM
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rnudles:
also to fix this should i flash a theme or custom rom and i found the delvik check whipe it was in advanced
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infamousteeboy:
Flash the ROM first do the theme later
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Indirect:
Which recovery are you on? If it's TWRP: Get Amon_ra and wipe BOOT: and System: then clear data then just flash rom. It will work. I promise.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eggsack:
Um, you need to have the ROM installed before you can flash a theme for that same ROM.

ALSO, I strongly recomend flashing AmonRA 2.3 to your phone before doing anything else.

If you are going to use Synergy, please follow the directions for partitioning the sd card. Simply copy your sd card stuff onto your computer, format the sdcard then partition it. Then you can copy everything back to the sd card from your puter. It will make life a whole lot easier and faster.

So my thunderbolt has been overall great but i have this problem where if someone calls me they cant hear me but i can hear them and i can hear myself in my own speaker. is it a setting problem? i also flashed the latest radio for GB on the Infected Synergy Rom.
[Thunderbolt General] loonatik78:
I've literally had that same issue on almost every device I've used on Verizon and Alltel at some point. Some areas it's happened a lot in, other almost never. I'm hesitant to say it's the device because of my experience. I think it's something quirky with the network. For me, if I just call them back it works fine. It used to happen almost every time I called my Mom. Second call was a charm though. Then it mostly stopped... about the time she got off that damn Motorola and onto a BlackBerry... but it still happens occasionally.
[Thunderbolt General] mistersikee:
yeah =[ ive never had this problem though and its constantly doing it because i was originally on cm7 but it started to i flashed another rom and it worked for a couple of calls at first but now no calls go through and im afraid to call verizon since im rooted but idk what to do =[ thanked you btw
[Thunderbolt General] loonatik78:
eh.... I've called them with issues on both my rooted HTCs. It's never been a problem. I've talked to guys there about their rooted Androids. If they tell you to do this or that, either play super-stupid or BS your way through it and get them to put a work order out to check out things on their end. If that doesn't solve it, then it's time to go back to stock and exchange some hardware or something.

i was just experimenting and it turns out after like 25 secs they could hear me but im still lost on why

I tire of seeing threads like this posted in these forums. They used to be a good place to actually have intelligent conversations and get relevant information, but now I see threads like this popping up all over the place.

First of all, if you're going to post a thread, PLEASE try to make sure you post it with much better spelling and grammar. If you have to simply take a second and check if it's correct then please do so. I have enough respect for the the posters here (their time, and sanity) to make sure my posts are not only readable, but also make sense, and I'd hope that others here do the same.

Second of all, it's somewhat hard to intentionally brick your device now a days, but NO you shouldn't. It's your fault you dropped it, so suck it up and deal with the consequences. Let Sprint actually put money where they need to (I.E. their coverage) and stop taking advantage of them for things that are your own fault.
