[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bingley:
OT

Android Forum? = xda? I've been offline a lot recently as this Indian Summer has made for some prime ultrarunning weather, but also takes a ton of time (by definition) although I've been rocking Redux/Aurora roms recently. Just been perusing the Desire forum today and there's been a ton of awesome rom progress since my last visit. I remember your help and work on Redux/thread/pm, great stuff. Still a beginner but it's very interesting learning this stuff, just also takes a lot of time for a non programmer!

Of potential note, 'found' a bug in gnu parted trying to partition out a 512mb 4ext sd-ext via 4EXTRecovery (madmaxx82 located it, I merely experienced it!) Always feels good to in a tiny way contribute :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohanlon07:
The button on the headphones only seems to stop or play music. It doesn't allow call answer or activate voice.input. Am I using it wrong or are there settings I need to change?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohanlon07:
Anybody?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galactus:
Same for me, only worked when I used the headset button mapper app from the market (double click to skip to next track performed terribly, dis app fixed it). Updating to 2.3.5 fixed the skip track issue for me so I got rid of the headset app. Still can't answer calls with the headset
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prodygee:
Double click for next works best if you do it slowly.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohanlon07:
Nightmare. I have 2.3.5. Its not so much the music but the calls.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Diliban:
Hi,

I have extracted the divx apk and lib files from Samsung Galaxy S dump. Could someone look at these files and port/mod divx player for our beloved Samsung Galaxy Ace?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] djevrek:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] EricSS619:
Just ordered my a Flyer from bestbuy.com for $99

I had to use their mobile site, but it worked.

here is a picture =-)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] EricSS619:
ok, first upload failed, here is the pic.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Lucas0511:
Nice discount :-), but currently sold out online http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HTC+-+F...hite/2390524.p?skuId=2390524&id=1218332598563
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] johnchad14:
funny, seeing it for $300 made me happy, $100 makes me mad. Feel pretty ripped off now for paying the original!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] theomni:
Oh wow!

Very glad I bought mine when I did. As any chances they're gonna bring it back?

I ordered mine as an in store pick up option. Any chances they will do a price adjustment if I go to pick it up today?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] radar5:
they should
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] butterflygirl:
There website says they will give you the lower price.

I purchased 3 of these with pens over the weekend (for me and the kids). Called best buy this morning to ask about the price match guarantee. Apparently, the refund amt was too much for the CS rep to authorize, but she says someone will call me today or tomorrow to verify that I will get the refund. Whoo Hoo! Hopefully, that will be about $720 refund on the 3 tablets and pens!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] brizey:
Mobile site won't let me do store pickup either. Going to my local BB at 10:00 when the open. Worth a shot.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] idle_mind:
They open up at 9 a.m. here. Still trying to figure out why I need one. LoL Maybe I'll use it to control my HTPC using XBMC. :-D
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dpaul007:
Going to my local BB in a half an hour, also. Might pick up two!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] TaintedByte:
Same here =p

Will post with updates. This is great, always wanted at tablet but never wanted to shell out more than 200 bucks for one. Great deal, good luck to you.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] theomni:
I'm on hold with the rep myself to ask about the price adjustment.

If I can get this for $100, this will perhaps be the greatest deal I've made this whole year, lol.

But that would be really awesome for you! Getting $600 off on your tablets. 3 tabs for $100 is amazing.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] RMarkwald:
I called and talked to them today after seeing this thread. I purchased mine on Saturday. I used my Best Buy CC with the 18 month financing, so my concern is that the won't do the match because of that. I saw something on their site about it. But the guy on the phone said he "personally couldn't approve it, and was forwarding it to the credit department". I should have an answer via email in the next 10 minutes.

I'm hoping that it goes through. I'll update.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cryofix:
They just posted on the door that regular price is $299 and that it was an error for $99 they will not honor the price.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] theomni:
That's strange.

I just got off the phone with a customer rep and she told me that my price was adjusted to $100 and the $200 refund should be reflected in my next bill.

That's just messed up.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] RockoDev:
People on phonadroid are saying bb had signs on there doors that it was a misprint
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] RMarkwald:
Here's the info on the oops!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] KryptosXLayer2:
Sold out online, sold out within a 50 mile radius of Orlando...... this is HUGE, can't wait for them to get more in stock online or in store so I can get two to use as media devices around the house!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] idle_mind:
Just got back from Bestbuy. It was a pricing error. There was a short line when I got there waiting to get in. At least 4 people walked in and out within 2 minutes after being informed that they are NOT getting the flyer for $99. Oh well. :-/
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] munchy_cool:
It was an OOPS, saw the notice with my own eyes...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] KryptosXLayer2:
I don't know where you guys are getting this OOPS - my dad just left the store watching 4 people leave with them for $99, it's all over Android Police and twitter right now with people scrambling to find them in town! Just called a location about 10 miles from my work that has ONE in stock for $99, verified over the phone, trying to get out there to get it now!

EDIT - Android Police is now saying that it is an error, but some stores are honoring the price...... I'm out of here to go get it!!

EDIT 2 - called right before I left, sold out.............
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] chiman:
Website is still showing a price of 99.99 dollar
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] powerbala:
Just came from the store with empty hand by believing their crappy site. IT IS AN ERROR.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] rushless:
Except for some stores this morning, BB is selling to no one for $100, unless the stores are blatantly disregarding the bulletin this morning. They have been told not to honor it, so the store manager will eat the cost and be directly taken from their incentive.

In short, the store general manager will eat the cost out of their pay. That is how their profit centers work.

They were warned, so no excuse.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] F0l3ert:
It's not available on their site any more. The link to it stopped working for a few hours now. I hope they are just updating the proper price because I'm still interested in getting at $299.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] theomni:
the $299 price is back up again
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] triscuit1983:
They called it an

online pricing error

. What the hell is this? It seems a little more than an online error. To me this seems like a bait and switch scenario. I was one of the idiots standing outside at 9 am waiting for a 10 am opening with like 30 other people. This Best Buy however did not hang a sign saying they screwed up. As if they didn't know why 30 people would be hanging out at 9 am on a Thursday. Come to find out several stores did honor the price. This is a much bigger goof up than the HP tablet.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] flo7002:
Managed to snag one early this morning when BB opened. After the salesperson finished the transaction I think he saw that they weren't supposed to sell them at that price, cause he's face and attitude changed, and all of a sudden they were out of stock when I asked him if they had anymore.

Oh well, glad I was able to pick one up, the wife will sure enjoy it. I got my galaxy tab to keep me company :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] F0l3ert:
I still don't see it on the site :(

I'm prepared to go across to the states this weekend if they still have stock.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ILRider:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dsf3g:
Clearly an error, but looks like a few of you got lucky! LOL! Good for you... I'm jealous.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ILRider:
According to this recent article they will be cancelling online orders. I guess I need to keep checking if there is movement through the tracking #

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] GrandAdmiral:
Yeah. I got mine today at the regular price. I asked the rep how many they sold at the errant price before being stopped. She said about 6 or 7. Wish I was one of them.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] xdadidida:
Count me as one of them. Didn't know this device existed before. Now I have to decide whether or not I really want it. Main appeal seems to be the pen for me, but until they update to HC or IC, it seems kind of an afterthought. I do see that there's a beta out, but from what I've read on here and elsewhere, it seems like this device is somewhat easier to brick than some of the other more mod-friendly ones out there.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] frh1:
Best Buy's Android App just offered me an HTC Flyer For $99, but would not allow me to check out. So I called to complete the sale over the phone. The first person refused to complete the sale at that price. So I asked to speak to a supervisor and she hung up on me. I called back and a 2nd sales person also refused to sell it to me.

Both sales people were so rude that I just don't feel like letting it go. So I took screenshots of the price page and the checkout page. Does anyone know if there are are legal grounds to force them to honor their advertised price?

(Sorry about the double post, I didn't see the topic was already here before I posted.)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] butterflygirl:
Most states probably have ome form of deceptive trade practices law. You might check to see if you can file a complaint with your state's attorney general.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] xdadidida:
You're several days too late and it's all over the news by now that it was a price error.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] EricSS619:
So best buy charged me $113 and sent it via ups. Then today the had an intercept put on the package and they are telling me they won't even file the refund until they recieve it back at their warehouse, which to me is bull****.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] rushless:
Really? That seems above and beyond stupid to me. Best for them to just let the ones that slipped out go, rather than burn a bunch of bridges.

That said, HTC is not eating this- Best Buy is. If just 1,000 slipped out, that is $200,000 revenue lost on a device already selling very well at $300.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] theomni:
On thursday when I learned of this pricing error, I called BB and the lady did a price adjustment for me.

So when I went to pick up my HTC Flyer on Friday, the receipt said $99 and when I got home, I saw that I had gotten an email from Best Buy saying that $200 has been refunded to me. I checked online and that was indeed the fact, I saw -$200 on my statement.

Today, I was looking online again and I noticed that my balance was $200 more than what it was a few days ago. I look at my billing activity and I noticed that the "-$200" is not on my billing activity as it was a few days ago. It disappeared as if I never got the refund in the first place.

I have the email to prove that I received a refund. What's messed up is that BB put me in a false state of relief that I had gotten a refund and then without my permission or without notifying me charged my credit card. I charged other things to my card because I was under the false impression that I'm not in the $200 hole.

I didn't mind paying the $300 for the flyer in the first place, but this is just ridiculous for them to flip flop back and forth.

Should I contact my credit card company or call BB directly?

I hope this was worth a customer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] rushless:
Based on the over the top effort by Best Buy to recover the money from the error, a LOT must have leaked through, or a corporate team is covering their butts. These errors will roll on somebody's P&L. CYA time.
[HTC EVO 3D] kennethbring:
I apologize in advance if this has been posted elsewhere. I've been looking everywhere I can possibly imagine for the past 3 hours trying to find a solution to no avail.

I'll get right to it. Whenever I try to turn on WI-FI or 4G, I get "Error". No description as to why, or what could be causing it, but heres what I've done.

I'm no noob when it comes to rooting. I had my original Evo rooted most of the time I had it with little to no problems. I've had the 3D since the day it came out, and I haven't felt the need to root. But I got to talking with my buddy earlier and decided I'm going to do it for the OC (and I gotta admit, Synergy looks pretty legit). I'm at hboot 1.5, so I went through the HTC unlock process, and the TWRP recovery process. Then I flashed Synergy, and I set it up, and I get this error.

So I try reflashing it, and that doesnt work. I'm thinking it could be the kernal. So i try 2-3 different kernals (listed on the Synergy thread), and I get the same error. I try a combination of different things for what seems like the next 10 hours (reality, it was about 2) and no matter what I try, I can not seem to get rid of this message. I clear all the cache/dalvik. Wipe back to factory. Hell, I even tried loading the stock ROM and this problem will not go away.

I have the PC86IMG ready to go about to flash back to stock and be done with this root process. The damage is done as far as warranties go, but I would really like to have something to show for it. Does anyone know a way to resolve this without reverting back to locked?
[HTC EVO 3D] ifly4vamerica:
Did you flash the kernel via fastboot? If not the kernels don't flash with the 1.50 hboot, you need to grab the boot.img out of the rom zip and flash via fastboot. Check post 2 in the Synergy thread I believe there are detailed instructions there.

EDIT: Instructions are actually on post 2 of the Eternity thread.

Transformer Sent
[HTC EVO 3D] kennethbring:
Is it not possible to just flash using TWRP?

Edit: I did read that you would need to flash via Fastboot, but I thought that was just initially. So everytime I flash a ROM, I need to adb through fastboot?
[HTC EVO 3D] kennethbring:
That did it. Thanks so much! That was driving me crazy!

(made sure to click "thanks" too)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricey1986:
OK heres my dilemma I need to return my phone as i am noticing really bad yellow tinting down the side. When i used cf-root i took a backup of my ROM once i had flashed chainfire's kernel. This gave me a copy of my rom but with custom recovery and an insecure kernel. How do i go about getting the secured kernel back and the stock recovery? Ive already flashed the backup and have gotten the stock ROM i just need to get rid of Recovery/root and the insecure kernel

Thanks

Ricey
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Checkout Intratech's stock ROM thread.

You should find the kernel matching your ROM/FW-Version there.

Flash the kernel (you only need to d/l the kernel, not the full ROM) and you're back at "original" kernel and the original stock recovery.

However, this will not un-root the phone!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rembrandtlnx:
Are you on 2.3.5 KI3? the yellow tint down the side is fixed in 2.3.5 (also in 2.3.4 if im not wrong), so i assume you are in 2.3.3 ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricey1986:
No im on batsita foxhound 2.3.5 it is only visible on dark backgrounds and now i know its there its irritating the hell out of me.

Cheers Hellcat, whats the best way to remove root?

Ricey
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Well, to get pretty much rid of everything done by rooting (and thereby also all root access) do via a shell/terminal/adb or a root capaple filebrowser (RootExplorer, GhostCommander, etc.):

- delete (if some exist) all symlinks in /system/sbin

- delete the CWM app from /system/app (if had been using CF-Root)

- if you want to be more "clean" than necessary, delete CWM and Superuser data folders from /data/data (the double "data" is not a typo ;))

- delete the Superuser app from /system/app

No root anymore after that.

And very, very hard (if at all) possible to "see" the phone had been rooted.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricey1986:
Cheers hellcat will give it a look tomorrow when im less tired and leas drunk lol
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pepemosca:
Can you explain more about this step?

I only see files that has -> busybox or -> recovery.

Which one should I remove?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
All of those.

Oh, and I had a typo there.... :o it's actually /system/xbin

Is it possible to force pics and videos to save automatically in internal memory
[Streak 5 General] PqRambo:
Hello everyone!

I have unlocked the device of origin. By OTA upgraded to version 2.2.2 (GAUSB1A135100-EU), Through The Dell website.

My doubt is:

Is there any latest official update?

Version PKG - Streack_360_17397_00.pkg, is an official update, the software version I have?

Is it advisable to install this version, or should I wait?

Thanks
[Streak 5 General] (InsertNameHere):
351 is the latest official european rom released by dell, 360 is the latest released rom that was released for hong kong i think.

Differences are minor, but 360 is the slightly better newer rom, now, here is the thing, it doesn't matter if you put 360 on your device then don't like it, or want to return the phone for warranty, becuase you can simply go back to 351 by flashing the 351 recovery.img and 351 pkg file.
[Streak 5 General] dsteinberg:
hi would you please make the update.pkg of the GAUSB1A135100-EU available so i can download it? on the wiki theres the 351 update but its the GAUSB1A135100-US version not the EU, im in the EU too Italy) and i might want to try if theres any difference between using a US version and using an EU version.

once you did the ota update the update.pkg file should stay in your root directory of your sd card unless you delete it. just copy that to your pc
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
351 and 360 are ROMs for unlocked (i.e. Retail) Streaks bought direct from Dell. The latest HK ROM is 354. The two can be distinguished by their region numbers: 00 for Retail, 11 for HK.

The only real difference between 351 and 360 is the bundleware is updated, so upgrading isn't essential.

There is no such thing as a "European-only" 351 or "US-only" 360. The "EU" and "US" tags in the About menu are based on the Streak itself, not the ROM.
[Streak 5 General] dsteinberg:

thanks for this info, so they are identical its only the TAG dell gives to distinguish them or there are some hardware differences between the eu and the us?

If there is a hardware difference, I couldn't tell you what it is.

Root Dell Streak 5

Hi,

Can anyone help me to root my streak.

Tried all of the zroots and androots, nothing works.
[Streak 5 General] chdude3:
This forum has everything you need to root your Streak. I should know, I took the time to do it a couple months ago - and yet you'll note that my first posts here were only yesterday.

Trust me, you'll be much better off reading the forums and doing some research about rooting rather than having someone spoon feed it all to you. The process is fairly straightforward, but I'd advise knowing what you're doing rather than blindly following a list of instructions.

But to start you off, the first thing you'll want to do is get Streakmod Recovery installed.
[Streak 5 General] valest:
Search away,plz don't dig out a old thread for no reason.
[HTC ChaCha] qbert456:
I'd love to help, but I'm nowhere near clever enough to get involved hands on.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
You can get involved by simply showing some interest on the thread up there :)
[HTC ChaCha] Moody:
Lol, rent me your phone and I'll give it to you within a month with working display and touchscreen at least.

Custom Roms based on anything else than HTC's official firmware are impossible to do blindly without having the actual device, unlike my recovery port. I have the knowledge required, I'm the one who started it all back over at the xperia x10 mini pro-scene. I just don't have the cash, or need to spend it, on a phone I won't use for anything else than giving the community CM7. So if anyone by accident could miss their phone for a good month, I'll be your developer.

I sincerely hope anyone else has the knowledge required though, as I doubt anyone would borrow me their phone, heck, even I wouldn't borrow my phone to myself over xda-developers :p

The hardest thing is not getting the phone to boot cm7, it is finding the correct "Drivers" which you need from the sense rom. This is a very reboot-and-time-consuming process and can't be done without seeing what happens.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
HTC has released the kernel with all the sources for the drivers so we're setup. Just need some tips. :)
[HTC ChaCha] qbert456:
I can do that bit!
[HTC ChaCha] droople:
ok, i post on that thread
[HTC ChaCha] astro11:
I think that if we want someone on cyanogenMod to give us attention and start working on something, we need to make a lot more noise. We need lots of people posting and asking for help. I suggest we start posting more there and asking people to do the same.

Mikevhl, I also think a lot of people here is urging for you to develop something to ChaCha, and I understand that no one is really willing to rent their phones (I don't got mine yet, but I don't know if I would give it too). What I believe you can start doing is asking for donations to buy a ChaCha. I'm one of the guys who are willing to give at least 10 bucks so you can have your own ChaCha to develop. Who knows? Maybe it'll work.

A cyanogenMod custom rom would mean a lot to HTC ChaCha. It's a phone with great potential, but with a lot of bloatware and unuseful stuff that makes the phone not so great at all.
[HTC ChaCha] qbert456:
I'd donate to that fund too !
[HTC ChaCha] Moody:
A good idea, but chances are I won't completely succeed in getting everything to work as perfect as CM builds are on other devices. That would mean I just stole your money! And I ain't wanna be no theif :p

If anyone is urging real bad though, you can sent me payments via paypal to
