BTW, Great job
[HTC EVO 3D] Dudemeister:
I just recently rooted the phone, and was not planning to replace the stock ROM, but in the last couple of days, I've been reconsidering this. BUt I do have some questions:

1. Can the new ROM be flashed as an "upgrade", IE, not loose everything and have to re-install apps.

2. I've had my eye on the Shooter XE or the Olympus XE ROMs, the instructions say I need to do a complete wipe before installing. Is that necessary?

3. What about updated Kernels? I'm curently running 1.11.651.3, and there's a newer version available here (Stock 1.13.651.7). Will updating to this newer kernel mess up my existing data?

4. Is there a way to backup all my apps, settings, data etc, then restore it all automatically. Titanium Backup can let you back everything up, including all the system bits and pieces, but how do I know what to back up and restore without doing any damage to the new system (like over-writing new settings and files with old ones)
[HTC EVO 3D] housry23:
Yes you must do a full wipe when changing ROMs. If you are installing a newer version of the same ROM then you can just wipe cache and dalvik cache and you won't lose anything. When using Titanium Backup it is a bad idea to restore any system apps. Stick to backing up and restoring user apps only and you will be good to go. It may backup the system apps, but I would advise to only restore the user apps. As far as your settings go, your Google account keeps them backed up if you allow it to and will restore them to your new ROM if you choose that option. Every ROM has a kernel. If you are flashing a custom kernel then just wipe cache and dalvik cache and flash the kernel. You will not lose any data when flashing a kernel by itself.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peenoy:
Hi all,

My phone, an evo shift 4g running 2.3.3, started acting up so i decided i would restore it to factory settings to start fresh. Before i restored, i backed up my contacts, messages, and calendar with android sync manager wifi, which resulted in an .mbk file. Since the phone has been restored, i have been trying to restore my data but android sync manager keeps freezing everytime i start the restore. Can anyone help me figure out how to restore my data? I've seen people get everything back from their google accounts, but apparently i didn't sync my phone correctly so i basically have an empty phone and I didn't backup to my sd (all i have is the .mbk file). I know how to temp root and have a basic knowledge of ADB... if that helps... thanks.

Ok so I really suck at contact maintenance. Everytime I ROM I get contacts added again ... so that means I can have up to 6-7 of the same person with the same number and FB gmail, etc. TOO MAKE IT WORSE I lose contacts that I WANT to talk to ... as if my phone if jealous of girls

Jus my luck. This pic explains one of them.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
are all of your contacts synced with your google account?

btw ouch that does suck... lol

You may wanna check your contacts in gmail and remove any duplicates. You might also have contacts on your sim.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] xtommydbx:
I'm trying to update my SGS GT-1900 to gingerbread with odin, i follow the steps correctly (Remove sim, put it into download mode, connect to pc with odin open) but odin doesn't recognise that the phones connected, do i need to install any drivers or such?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spamtrash:
Yes, you need. Unfortunately, you have to install modem drivers. Or standalone, or just install KIES.

But then be careful, you have to: install KIES, reboot, kill two KIES processes running in background (or exclude it from startup via msconfig.exe), and after run Odin.

Standalone drivers should do the work as well...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xtommydbx:
its working with my friends galaxy s, but its taking a couple of hours and it still says 'setupconnection' is this normal?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spamtrash:
no, there is communication error. Normal flash in Odin is 2-5minutes only.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] michael_gmr:
Please look out the COM edit box change to yellow afte connecting.

if not change,

make sure you have installed the correct driver.

Try to reinstall again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gtluis:
Just install kies first, it will install all drivers needed to connect you galaxy S.

When connected to odin, you should see one of the white boxes turn yellow immediatly, this means you are ready to flash.

If everything fails, just copy the stuff to a USB and try on another PC, I've done it in windows xp 32 bits and win 7 64 bits, so I think you shouldnt have problems in most sistems setups.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xtommydbx:
managed to flash (pda: jvk Phone: jvk csc: jvk kor) everything works except the internet, kies wont alloow me to fix it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] LiverpoolFCfan:
For data you will need to add back your provider's APNs. Go to

Settings->Wireless and network->Mobile networks->Access Point Names

You have to have the correct APN settings for your network here in order to use data. Search the forums if you don't know the settings for your network. There are several threads with network settings listed.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xtommydbx:
can you link me to correct optus settings plz cant seem it find it, need net asap.

Guys I have cf root installed and ext 4 manager installed. But I have not converted rfs to ext 4. Ext manager shows no ext 4 partitions found. Can I convert my internal mem to ext4. Also does cf root automatically converts internal mem to ext ?

Yes

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mannysy:
I updated my flyer to HC a week ago and its been great but the one thing really bothering me is that I can't seem to get the HTC Widgets like mail, friend stream and news to go full screen! The small Widgets are just not doing it for me. Is there any way to get my Widgets to display full screen again?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
The answer is no. On Honey comb the gird for the displays is wider and taller than GB by design since tablets have larger screens so each widget looks smaller. The one thing I hated about GB Sense was that the widgets took up the entire screen because they were sized for a phone not a tablet.

Edit: You know I say that, but now that I think. Android 3.1 brought re-sizable widgets and during the short time I had HC installed, I don;t remember trying it. What happens if you long press a widget? HTC Sense is not pure Android so it may or may not comply. I removed HC back to GB due to the camera and mail widget problems.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] milomak:
screen real estate is not really maximised with honeycomb. i've come to accept it while this is still a leak.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tydgilyard:
I have grown to accept it as well. Kind of got used to it. And it kind of feels nice after a while

This is my first post so hello everyone. I got a sgs2 in china (where I currently live) couple of months ago and it came with no market app. After downloading one (actually I downloaded several version several times) I always get the same problem: I launch the app, it asks me if I want to associate an account and wether I press "yes" or "no", the app shuts down. Is there anything I can do to solve this problem?

My N1's power button completely stopped responding a few months ago and the USB port was busted so I had no way to turn it on at all(I had been using the N1 desktop dock to charge it.) I needed a phone really quick so I ended up buying the Sensation.

Fast forward to now, I am perfectly happy with my Sensation running CM7. But I still have my Nexus one, albeit with broken power button and busted USB port. What would you recommend I do with it? Sell it as-is on the internet? Is there a cheap fix I can do myself to get it working again?

Hi

prior to flashing nova v8, when i reached clockworkmod recovery, this sentences appeared

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

i have already wiped factory data and wiped cache before proceeding to flash

then when i was doing the flash to nova v8, the bar seems to be stuck at about 75% for more than half an hour.

Can anyone please help me?

Thanks in advance!
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Are you sure that Nova8.zip is not corrupt? Do you check it already before flashing?
[LG Optimus Black] aloysiust:
how do you check whether it is corrupted or not?

i flashed this nova v8 before but the gps was not working, and some **** happens and im using back the same nova v8 to flash again. but i got stuck, and it is still stuck now. ):
[LG Optimus Black] andrewbadge:
Happened to me many times when I was flashing v8. Just copy the zip file again in the SD, then try again. If it happens again, try re-copying the file in the SD again then flash. If it still fails download v8 again.
[LG Optimus Black] aloysiust:
thanks for reply! im downloading a new nova v8 just in case, and check the md5 sum before flashing it later.

now another problem arises, my phone shows "internal phone storage is 0.00mb"

anyone knows why? i can't download anything from the market! :(
[LG Optimus Black] andrewbadge:
Just do another factory reset and everything should be back to normal. And if you experience force closes after flashing just reboot again.
[LG Optimus Black] aloysiust:
thanks for replying!

i have already reset my phone using LG recovery, reboot and it doesn't worked at all.

then when i tried everything again, CWM states that i have flashed successfully & i rebooted the phone. However it got stuck at the LG logo for an hour+. i redo everything and it is still the same ):

edit* - can anyone please help me with my Internal Phone Storage(under SD card & phone storage settings)? because it shows 0.00B even when it is freshly factory resetted.

and also why does my clockworkmod(v5.0.0.1) shows these sentence?

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

My phone has hboot 1.50

I installed

Clean rom

Clean rom de

Senseless

Synergy

Infected

And after flashing any of these rom I had to use StockKernel2.08.651.2update.zip to get my wifi and 4g workin. I tried mutiple kernels also setmycpu, cpu master and system tuner and nothing has worked. All I want is to overclock my cpu. I think I'm having so much problem bcuz of hboot 1.50. Worse mistake was updating my phone when I first got it
[HTC EVO 3D] DoMiNiKiNG947:
I'm fine. I flashed clean rom sense and then flashed bc kernel and works wonderfully. No problems at all. Try reflashing again kernel or flash different kernel. I read only flash 2.3.4 versions only of rom and etc. Don't quote me on that.
[HTC EVO 3D] jsjr1988:
Can u link the bc kernel that worked for u
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
if you're HTC unlocked (which you are) you need to flash kernels and ROMs with custom kernels a special way. Sorry if you knew that already but here it is: First you need to (from a computer) boot into the bootloader, and from cmd "fastboot boot recovery.img" where recovery.img is the actual filename of your recovery in the fastboot folder on pc. After you do that it unlocks the write protection on your boot.img. Then you would flash a kernel or ROM with a custom kernel. That *should* work.
[HTC EVO 3D] jsjr1988:
i tried using this and flash multiple kernel with still no result when i start up the os on the phone the wifi or 4g arent workin... yeah i did use the htc method. "fastboot boot recovery.img" this did boot me into a different recovery. i flashed from there and this nothing.

so i figure its either the radio or the rom.

no replies from HTC after 20 emails i gave up.

Because they make one phone/year, while most Android OEM's make 3-4/year so its hard to keep up updating every single one of em...

2 hours gaming

1/2 hour web browsing

In widgetsoid:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] naturist:
Thanks. Will test it. I thought the sensor works on its own. Cant able to figure that though it includes the sensor on the front.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
Well, actually, the sensor alway will change the display settings a bit, unless you put in on 100%.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] nexus2515:
Set brightness slider to near about 20% in settings

Now goto homescreen and put the brightness widget there...now click on it twice/thrice such that screen first lit up and then again dim

Now whenever sensor notices brigt light, it will set the max display to the place where you set the slider
