[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PCBiased:
Hi gang,

First off, I just wanted to say that this site is kickass and I appreciate all the hard work the devs have put into helping breathe new life into devices such as the HD2.

As the title states I have an unlocked HTC HD2 that I have flashed with Energy ROM. The phone can make phone calls, however, when I try to do anything data related (surf the web, access Pandora, receive email, etc.) I get a connection error. I have scoured the web for a few hours trying to find the proper APN settings but have yet to find a configuration that will work. Is there anyone out there that is running the Energy ROM and that has successfully setup their HD2 on the ATT network to be able to actually utilize the EDGE data capabilities? If so, I would really be grateful if I could get some assistance on getting my phone to work fully. I apologize if this question has been answered elsewhere and will keep looking in the meantime. Cheers!

Hello Guys,

for those who's used iPad or iPhone,

one of the best app ever is the airvideo

the app transcode any video type on air and stream it to your portable devices instantly,

Unfortunately Airvideo doesn't support Android,

There are plenty other options for android such as Plex, Orbit, Mirage, etc.

But in my opinion they simply don't work as well as air video,

either they don't support as many file types, or the setup is not as simple

probably a lot of you know this already, but yesterday I found a app called Emit,

you can find it on the android market, there are both free and paid version.

the free version has ads when the video is playing, kinda annoy, but other than that its the same as the paid version (~$4)

But it is truly the closest alternative to Airvideo, everything works as it should,

and the setup is very straight forward,

there's no need to set up port forwarding or anything for remote connection.

Just go into setting and type in the special Pin code and you can connect to it anywhere that has internet connection.

If you are like me you'd love this app.

Cheers~
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] HeWhoWas:
I'd second this thread, I actually downloaded Emit when I had my old N1 when the program was first released, and it worked well then.

I had an issue with the Market telling me that my SGS2 was incompatible with it, and contacted the dev. He was pretty up front in telling me that it was difficult to get in touch with Google, but he still had the problem resolved within 48 - 72 hours or so, and I was back up and running.

Cons? Access it from the net is spotty. I haven't got it to work at all.

Pros? Everything. One click pre-encode and copy to device is one of the best though. Streaming with on the fly transcoding is smooth, and works well.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] andyxover:
Yes you are right

I spoke to soon

The remote connection only worked that first time

Sigh. Everything else tho awesome app
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] andyxover:
I'm sorry

I spoke too soon again

You just have to open up the two ports in tcp and udp

If you have a Linksys router like mine

Go to tab gaming and application

Name the connection emit

Port from 2000-2006 choose udp

Then type in your local IP

Go to thenext one. Again name it emit

Port 1554 to 1554

Choose tcp then again type in your local IP

Save and there you go*

Go to your setting in the emit see er on your computer

At the place you see your pin click on test connection

It should say successful now

If not read the error and see whichport you have to manually open

Hope this helps

I am getting a new android phone (I have my reasons, don't flame me please) and I'd like to use my micro sd card on it. I have been getting mixed reports on whether or not I can reformat this thing. Some say you need a symbian phone, others say there are tools that you can use on windows to do it, but I haven't had any success nor do I have access to a symbian device. Any help?
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Some of the latest Symbian phones will do the formatting fine (ie Nokia E7x, E5x, Nxxx etc)
[Focus General] gonintendo:
So a symbian phone is the only option? There has to be a good pc utility that will do it too.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
That's your best solution. The tools solution depends on the OS you have, but no one so far failed with Symbian ;)
[Focus General] gonintendo:
Can you recommend a tool? I have access to os x, windows 7 and linux, so that isn't an issue.
[Focus General] PaullikesWINMO:
Try formatting with computer. I did it with my Vista machine but those were only 4GB cards I was doing it with. And hey... try it with the Android.. you never know !
[Focus General] phoneguy 4567:
I wish you luck. I've tried the tools, Android, Windows 7 64 bit, Vista 32 bit, Linux & cameras nothing works for me. I haven't been able to get my hands on a Symbian phone.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Stick to what I said. Any Symbian phone OR Camera will do.

Read more at MS source :)
[Focus General] gonintendo:
What did you use to format? Windows 7 (the partition manager) and gparted won't even recognize it.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Search rulez. :cool:
[Focus General] gonintendo:
Well, that answers my question lol. Thanks for the help (and a big **** you to ms for locking my sd card)
[Verizon Droid Charge] odoule:
In lew of the recent Apple press release event for the dissapointing iPhone 4S, anyone else feel truely justified for getting a Charge? I dont understand why any manufacturer would even try to release a new phone without 4G capability... Downright shameful.

[Verizon Droid Charge] KarateExplosion6:
I couldn't agree more... In all honesty, I'm Mobile OS Neutral, but I use Android because I think it meets my needs best. However, I do use an iPad 2 nonstop and would love some of the syncing features, etc.

That said, I really can't believe there's no 4G. And to boot, it's HSPA+ 14.4, not 21--that's absurd to me.
[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
The same reason Apple delayed the release of their 3G model - performance/battery life. Apple isn't going to put an LTE radio and dual core processor in their phone until the battery life issue is resolved.

I remember when the iPhone 3G came out.. My coworker constantly had that thing on a charger.
[Verizon Droid Charge] AlexDeGruven:
It's all about power saving. iPhone users have been used to Blackberry-style battery life.

To include an HSPA+ radio (the 4S is HSDPA, not HSPA+) or an LTE or WiMax radio would severely impact their battery life.

I think it's going to bite them in the end, though. I think with the Google/Samsung announcement next week and the Prime being (probably) HSPA+ and/or LTE, life is going to get very difficult for the iPhone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] nismology:
I have learned to never underestimate Apple marketing. With that said, I frankly DGAF about iOS devices...
[Verizon Droid Charge] Balamutnik:
Coming from BB to IOS to Android and I've tested nearly every IOS device I can tell you this, Apple always have a few tricks up their sleeve.
[Verizon Droid Charge] vash1053:
Why is that shameful? Because they favor battery life over sheer network speed?

I swear, sometimes the people bashing Apple are just as bad (or worse) than the Apple fanboys.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jkbucksot:
The charge beats out almost every phone on the market right now for verizon. I had the Droid bionic for 4 days and it had so many glitches it wasn't worth waiting for any updates for it. The camera sucked, sms messaging ui blew, and the list continues.

For the money, and the charge is the best
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I used Apple devices for almost 4 years. They are very good devices, and I have no doubt the iPhone 4S will continue that trend. Apple isn't about being the latest, greatest hardware or most powerful software. They are about user interface and user experience. For me, I prefer Android, and I can't believe it took me so long to make the switch, but if my mom asked me for advice on a smartphone, I'd recommend Apple all day long.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ForeverSupra:
All I know is prices dropped and I am getting crazy good commissions :P. It looks like not many people are crazy for the S cause I've been selling more iPhones 4's then ever and I'm hardly asked about the S.
[Verizon Droid Charge] maxxve:
I just bought a used Charge because I wasnt happy with the 4S announcement either. I have the iPhone 4 but really wanted 4G now that it's available in my area.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Bear55:
Good work! Welcome! :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] claydoh:
I got my charge last week, my first smart phone. Heck, my first mobile phone for that matter.

I chose it for it's overall feature set and screen, but I don't have 4G coverage in my area. Having compared it with my wife's fascinate and friends iphones, I gel quite justified in my choice :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Skyroket:
Tried to view one of my contacts and got a FC on Contacts Storage (motorola.blur.providers.contacts). Do not know whether this has ever worked. Have had this Bionic for a couple days and froze a bunch of Motorola ****. The list isn't very long and I can provide that if necessary, but I'm just assuming this is what has caused my Contacts issue.

On to the actual issue, I uninstalled Contacts Storage (using Titanium Backup) and was going to reinstall it from the backup, but TB just hangs.

Tried all three different "App Processing modes" in TB and it hangs on restore regardless of this setting.

Extracted the apk out of Titanium Backup folder and tried to run it manually and it won't go (using ES File Explorer, mounted System as R/W).

Tried moving it to /system/app/ and running it (still mounted R/W) and it fails.

Will restoring ONLY "System" fix my problem and not delete all my other data that I've been busy setting up? Is there even a way to restore only System, using that FXZ?

If I can just chill and not worry about it until they come out with Clockworkmod Recovery, how do I make a flashable zip with just Contacts Storage in it?

Edit: Tried installing with adb and it fails with Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]. I see other apps in the /system/app folder have .odex files with them. Am I just missing this one for the contacts (did it get removed by TB?)?

Edit: Got the .odex file from here and it still fails trying to install via Root Explorer.

Edit: Installation via adb with NO switches fails with Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_SHARED_USER_INCOMPATIBLE]

Installation via adb with /l switch to Forward Lock it fails with Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE]

That Forward Lock one was a little past my point of not knowing what the hell I'm doing, so I will just chill and wait for a response. Thanks!

Edit: FXZ'd back to stock, installed CWM Recovery, backed up, restored Data only from the damaged instance via CWM Recovery, wiped cache. Everything is great and I didn't lose any data! Just had to get a fresh /system/ in there...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordManhattan:
Take a look here.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titanoman:
I'm a noobe and don't understand those postings at all (what is ”eng bootloader”?). The only thing I see about VISIONary is ”does not work on 2.3.4”. But all forums say Visionary works for this phone.

P.S: I thought maybe try to move visionary to the root of my card but I can't find sd card root using Astro.

Sorry for the noobe questions. I just really want to root this thing (I would like just temp root for now). Thank-you very much
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
You cannot root your Glacier if you are on gingerbread (2.3.4). You have to downgrade to 2.2. There are instructions on how to do this in the glacier forums. When you are downgraded, visionary alone can only give you temp root. You must use the root.sh method or the gfree method to achieve permroot.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titanoman:
I can't find how to downgrade to 2.2 in the Glacier forum. And I don't have a computer. Please advise. Thank-you.

You need a computer...it is located in the glacier forums under the development section.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenrry:
So I was trying to get Wallet on my phone, complete mess, the phone went fubar, I can get the phone to work on stock 2.3.4 but can't update to 2.3.6 nor I can install any ROM, and yes, the phone is rooted.

If I try on updating to 2.3.6 I get >>>

assert failed: less_than_int(1303507835,getprop("ro.build.date.utc")

Status 7

If I try to install any Rom I get >>>

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "crespo" ll

getprop("ro.build.product") == "crespo"

And trying to restore will simply give me system.img not found.......

So if nothing works towards, then I will simply and rather prefer to do a clean install so it will wipe everything, but, is there a way to "Wipe" everything and reinstall?

And yes, I already tried the "Wipe data/factory reset", no good at all.

Upd: I can install kernels.....go figure.....

Thx Mate but I have a i9023 (NS 3G+ if u can say), I was able to downgrade using the guide from TheUnlockr and it was a PITA since the file somehow is not really the best to work on the NS but I was able to update to 2.3.6. :)

And since now I'm updated and found a way to mess the phone even more it is time to try the Wallet again!!!

So I've been considering going back to school to learn computer sciences, and since getting my android have been wanting to learn how makes mods, apps, roms. I'm wondering what sort of knowledge base is required for working with android platform. I know android runs on Java, so that's a must. Specifically what's need to make roms. Not being in the USA there seems to be very little dev for my phone, as its not available there

[General Questions and Answers] cdesai:
Apps are made in Java as you said, roms and kernels are compiled from source and programmed in c

Although you can make a rom by winzip too, but that's called cooking

You can use c to make apps too by the ndk
[General Questions and Answers] supermaz:
What you also might need is some linux knowledge for ROM making I guess. Writing here and there a little shell init script might be the case as well.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] fjcaetano:
Hey guys,

So, my phone got wet last week and it can't be fixed. I took it to an authorized service center and the price to fix it is higher than the price I paid for the phone.

After I got it back, I did some tests and I realized that the problem is in the screen. So, I'd like to know if there's any way to recover the content from the phone's memory. I thought maybe via bootloader or something but I have no clue on how to do that, so I need your help.

BTW, my phone is rooted.

Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] skadude66:
Put your phone in a sealed bag of rice or puffed rice, and leave it there for a day or two without the battery in it. That should get any excess moisture out of it.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] fjcaetano:
I already tried that before taking it to the mechanical (I don't know if that's the correct term). He's report said that the phone has oxidation points and, as I said, it would cost more to repair than the price I paid for the phone.

But thanks, anyway.

So, just to clarify, I don't want to make my phone work again, I just want to recover it's content that are not in the memory card, but in the phone's built in memory.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] wisefreakz:
I believe that by having your phone in bootloader mode you could do ADB from your computer and manually do a nandroid. Try google about this steps.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] fjcaetano:
I'd really thank you if you could give me any more guidance, because I'm doing everything blindfolded, since the screen is not working anymore.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] skadude66:
Okay, seeing as you can't see anything, what you can do is install ADB (just google it) and then navigate to this directory:

data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/

And then look for the "contacts.db" file.

I think ADB is just like Linux, so you can try to do this:

ls data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/

If you see contacts.db, then you know you are in the right directory.

As to copying it, I am not 100% sure.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] fjcaetano:
I'll try it and post the result.

Thank you very much!

Its fairly easy. I just rooted my Droid X on Sat and i downloaded my first custom rom last night it is very easy. I would suggest going to droidmodderx.com and visiting his youtube droidmodderx.

Hi, I know this is a long-shot but I thought I would ask anyways. Would it be possible to downgrade a B70KAS17+ Transformer to V8.2.3.9 , and use blobs to root it?

Is it even possible to downgrade it without bricking it?

Even if we did somehow manage to downgrade it, and root it. Would it be pointless because the SBK is locked meaning that we can't install Custom Roms?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
The SBK is burned into the chip. You can't downgrade but assuming you can it's still not going to change the SBK.

Folks with the old SBK, no mattr what firmware they're on, they can still root via nvflash method.

It's not the firmware stopping you from rooting, it's the SBK
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhanford:
Also, there's been no exploit found for Android 3.2+, so you can't gain root any other way than through NVFlash at the moment, which requires the SBK
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheOne61:
But blobs were used before they even discovered the SBK keys? and ever thought about using NVFlash?

But since we can't downgrade, this is probably just a mute point.
