[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cross84:
I recently installed X-Power XWKI8 1.0 rom, one of the removed aplications is the swipe keyboard. I tried reinstalling it from de pack of applications that the developers of the rom offer with no succes, it just doesnt appear as an option. I tried restoring it with titanium backup, it does resotre it but it gives me an error every time i tried to use it.

Anybody had de same problem and found a way to fix it? i searched in the official post and didnt find anything to solve the problem
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ngoonee:
Don't restore from titanium backup, even if it works it'll probably FC.

I used the X-Power additional apps and it works no problem here....
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g4rvd4:
Dear all,

My HTC Desire is now 15 months old, and still works as new. No, better than new since it's rooted and faster.

Coming to the problems:

My car has a bluetooth feature to stream music from the phone, and to take and make calls. Bluetooth music streaming works perfectly, and I can skip songs using the car controls.

I am facing the following issues with the "Phone Connect" feature when I pair the Desire:

After any and every incoming or outgoing call is completed, I get a pop up on the screen which says "Fatal Exception..." and I can only force close from here. When I force close, the signal strength icon shows a cross and all connectivity is lost for sometime, including BT: car says "phone disconnected". After a while the signal strength comes back and BT can be reconnected.

So basically I have to repeat this process everytime I make or answer a call via the car BT feature. Needless to say, it's a PITA.

I am guessing this is a problem to do with the radio or kernel of the phone. Not sure which. Please confirm this, and guide me to a radio or kernel file which may solve this issue.

My second problem has to do with the phonebook feature of the car. It can pull the contacts, the recently dialled numbers, recently received numbers, and missed calls. Only in the Desire it doesn't.

The phonebook feature can only see the contacts in the SIM card.

The recently dialled, received, and missed calls don't work. Numbers only show up on the car list if I have made/answered/missed a call while connected to the car BT.

The only feature that works as it should is redial.

As I am told, all Nokia models work perfectly on the same car model, and since we own a 'smart'phone, not to mention an Android, we should be able to get it to work however we want it to.

Any fixes for this one?

Thanks in advance.

:)

PS. If you want the exact error message thrown by the phone after taking/making a call, I can write it down and get back to you afterwards.

Please help, guys! :(
[HTC Desire S] laielephant:
I use CM7.1 on my desire s,so sholud I update kerner to " Tiamat 1.1.4" or not???
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Flash it, try it and if you are not happy with it reflash the CM kernel

P.S.: there is Tiamat 1.1.5 available
[HTC Desire S] laielephant:
what is the benfit to flash this kernal?????

for cpu overlock or battery life??
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
It depends what you want from your phone.

I use the Tiamat SmartAssV2 governor underclocked to 768 MHz max/ 182 MHz min CPU that gives me about 5 days of battery life (but I use my phone mainly for calling and WiFi). Tried with the CM kernel (interactive governor) and Tiamat gives better results for me.

IMO you have to try both kernels with you usage and decide which suits you best.
[HTC Desire S] laielephant:
if I flash Tiamat 1.1.5.....and I do not satisfy with this ,so how can I back to origin kernal????

This is my thinking!!!

Into "Clockrecovery" --"wide cache" and "Wipe dalvik-cache"--then reflash CM7

Is it right???
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Absolutely. Reflashing the ROM will bring you back the stock CM kernel
[HTC Desire S] laielephant:
OK........tonight,I will try to flash this kernel......Wait my good news!!
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Do not forget to calibrate your battery for best results:

charge your phone to 100 %

power it off (shut down)

continue charging until the led indicator turns from orange to green (this will take several seconds

reboot to Recovery (I use 4EXT Recovery)

wipe battery stats

reboot to your ROM
[HTC Desire S] SqueeZenx:
... Or use Battery Calibration. :)
[HTC Desire S] laielephant:
Why config it ????

I never do it before ??
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
This is a procedure that is advised to be done after every fresh flash (ROM, Kernel, etc) that is changing some of the operational conditions of the device (such as CPU), because the system is maintaining a log of the battery consumption (the graph in the Battery use in menu is based on that). So when you change the system this log is not longer valid so it has to be cleaned to ensure proper battery indication. (your phone can show 30 % but can actually have 50 % or 15 % charge if not calibrated)

---------- Post added at 12:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:59 AM ----------

any Battery Calibrating app is skipping step 3 in the described procedure, which is the reason that I prefer the manual method
[HTC Desire S] laielephant:
I flash this kernal last night....and wipe battery too

Now my setup is

"SMARTASSV2 mode" 1267~268:D

and what is the different bewteen this mode???
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DemonLoader:
Hello all. It's me with questions again ;-) (Yeah I was that kid in class)

My question is about getting my hands on apks and libs for HTC Sense (in particular Sense 3.5 or latest builds) for use in building my own personal rom at least. I just found the tut on android rom building and I've always had a passion for wanting to do this, even with WinMo, but never got the opportunity.

I personally like ACA rom, but I am in lust with Sense (if it were female it would be molested). I tried one Sense 3.5 rom, but found it very not "everyday" useable, which curved my thinking to this. My thinking is I would like to just join the two (ACA & Sense 3.5) in wholly matrimony, along with some misc tweaks, apps, and scripts ACA doesn't have that I've come to realize in my two weeks of serious Androiding that are necessary.

Can someone point me in the right direction? Even if its not possible or extremely hard to integrate, I would like to hear about it.

thanks,

D.

It seems to be off at the top and bottom of the screen. It will click on things above my finger at the top of the screen, but below my finger at the bottom. Always closer to the edge. In the middle is perfect.

Any one else notice this? Should I exchange it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] harlenm:
Aiming for the middle of the boxes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
Same here. While I do have a dead pixel toward towards the bottom, my main reason for wanting to exchange it is how the touch is off on the top and bottom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] harlenm:
I wonder if its a widespread problem, or isolated. I'd hate to unroot and return it to end up with the same thing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
Same feelings here. There's not really a definitive guide how to prep this phone for a warranty return. Not sure what that all entails, aside from the obvious.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
I know this is a slightly older thread but I have an update since last.

Returned my phone today 'primarily' because of a dead pixel.

But the screen digitizer is no longer off near the top and bottom. So much better! No more accident double spaces causing a period or accidently turning on caps.

Didn't think it was that annoying until it's gone and I don't have to deal with it anymore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] harlenm:
I decided to keep my phone, and not exchange it. It's not off enough to justify it, and everything else on the phone works perfectly, so I'm just gonna live with it.

Calibrate your screen in settings
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
And this screen calibration setting would be located...? I've looked over and over and never seen any option in various roms to calibrate the screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] contentryder:
Settings/display horizontal and gyro settings fixed one of my friends. It was off but isn't anymore. Though it has nothing to do with the touch but it fixed it...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] lanisan:
Touchscreen

Not sure if I'm experiencing the same problem. I dropped a post on another thread but this seems to be more like it..

My example (I'm not as techie I guess) would be:

Tap on engadget app - No problems

Tap on a story - No problems

Tap on the comments - Have to do this repeatedly till it comes up

This isn't the only app or problem obviously but that's the one I notice the most.

I am on the verge of returning it considering it's a 200.00 phone.. I shouldnt have to tap something 4 times to get the item to respond. It's really frustrating. I am rooted, stock only. No custom rom. Thought it could be because I am rooted, running Go EX Launcher, Live wallpaper, etc but even using the stock launcher w no live wallpaper and eliminating some other things it doesnt make a difference. I did try the screen/gyro cal and it made no difference. Please let me know if you guys are having the same issue.. My return period is rapidly coming up..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
re: calibrate

The guy is talking about a different calibration, he is talking about the

horizontal calibration under settings>display>horizontal calibration... :)
[Motorola Droid 3] Dad23Boys77:
So I'm trying to get a better understanding of the things I am reading here and on other Android websites. I keep reading about ADB - which I've gathered stands for Android Development Bridge. I did a search on this site and found the "easy ABD tutorial" that actually confused me even more. So my question is, could someone please explain to me in laymans terms what exactly is ABD? I've successfully rooted my D3 and created a nandroid and would l iike to try the Steel Droid Rom however, it talks about using ADB to push the BlurEmail.apk to system/app/.

I think I've successfully installed the Android SDK but I have no clue as to how to install the ABD "drivers" that are referenced in the the following post: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/adb-easy-tutorial/

Is there a difference between the SDK application and ADB or are they part of the same thing?

Is there a way to verify if I have the ADB drivers/application/whatever that I need so that I can push the BlurEmail.apk to the system/app/ file location?

As always, thanks to those that provide a response to this thread.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] bratten2121:
Also whats the best setup rom/kernel?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wgrant:
I use 4g (or atleast what T-Mobile considers 4g) all the time. As far as ROMs and kernels its user preference. Personally I like Eaglesblood, I've used multiple kernels but its looking like the stock kernel is giving best battery.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
3G and 4G are the same. T-Mobile doesn't have real 4G. They have a faster version of 3G they named 4G on their own to mislead their customers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MisfitX:
Its software 4g, it just allows a higher data transfer over a 3g connection...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:

[Nexus S General] Tidane:
Hi everyone..

Yesterday I was walking and decided to make a backup of my apps and ROM because i was using MIUI on my Nexus S. I wanted to change to CM 7.1 and everything was Ok, until I entered CW recovery and tried to enter in the option "Choose a zip, something" but It appeared the message "Can't mount SD".

First thing I did was to turn Off the phone and waited until i got home... But later when I plugged it to the laptop it told me to Format sd...

So I didn't know what to do, I did it... I think I did it wrong.. But i tried to install via Odin a new Image and everything went well.. But when booting animation froze...

I thought it was easy but later the phone didint turn on... not Bootloader.. not recovery nor Download mode...

It only lights the buttons in this order...

Power button...

Lights Home button.. then lights search button...

They turn off.

Then Menu and BAck buttons are lighted and thats all...

Black screen, no boot.. Its dead :(

Anyone knows whats happening?

If it is lost... its ok.. but I just want to know if there is something to do.. because I searched all night and can't find anything.
[Nexus S General] wamou:
ihave same problem any solution to fix it
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
When you say no bootloader have you tried with it connected to your computer? I'm asking because I have seen this behavior when an incorrect bootloader had been installed. If your computer recognizes the device there is a chance you could flash a complete stock image via fastboot.
[Nexus S General] qtwrk:
....just a thought

why don't send it back to Samsung?

you may need to pay for fix , but it's better then you lost it ...
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
Its been 6 days...did you get it resolved?
[Nexus S General] Tidane:
I have tried everything... PC doesnt recognize...

Its always black screen..

Today I tried to tap all buttons it only vibrated and thats all...

Thank you for answering.. but If someone knows how to fix.. I will appreciate the help...

If not... do I have to send it to samsung?

Here is a video of the Nexus S

I can't post links yet... but here is it the link... youtubedotcom/watch?v=9PL2rQKqfqA
[Nexus S General] qtwrk:
after watch your video , i think it is hardware problem , which is none of us can be fixed ... if it is software problem , people from this forum can help , but hardware... well

of course , i'm not professional , i am not sure ,but if I were you , i would have it sent to Samsung...

have you noticed your 4 button down there ? it shouldn't light up like that ...i mean , it might light up like that with BLN control , but before you even get in the system ...that's kinda unusual to me

---------- Post added at 12:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 AM ----------

as I said , you have unlocked and rooted , which means it makes you lost your warranty , and you may need to pay for repair , but anyway , it's better then you completely lost it ... don't you think ?
[Nexus S General] ghost010:
WHY THE HELL DID YOU USE ODIN!!??

ODIN is a last resort and a 50/50 program with the nexus s.

anyways. can you get it in download mode?

does your pc find it?

does adb find it?

id recomand you downloading android SDK and plug your phone in on OFF state. than turn it on. and go to cmd. enter" adbdevices " and see if it will vind it.

(better instructions in the rooting thread on xda(about adbdevices))

if this doesnt help.

send it to samsung.

dont open your nexus. unles you think you can repair it yourself.
[Nexus S General] stars2:
what is the sound on your video? (like device connected) check device manager pls, and find 'android 1.0' or 'android bootloader interface'

are you sure, does not recognize the phone your pc?
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
While I agree that Odin is terrible (at least to use with this phone), I think it may be a hardware issue. He even said that he was seeing "Can't mount SD" in recovery. That is sounding like an issue with storage. Can't tell for sure though. Really strange that the two menu buttons light up like that...
[Nexus S General] ghost010:
storage doesnt need to be mounted.

so i am asumign he can get in recovery? thats enough.

now he needs to hook up his nexus and ADB push the stock rom :3

it should work(i hope)
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
You apparently didn't read the thread...

And yes, partitions need to be mounted, which are on storage. If it can't access the partition, it will complain it isn't mounted. This could mean many things, in this case, probably hardware.
[Nexus S General] xcoley:
I was under the assumption that Nexus S was unbrickable...?
[Nexus S General] Tidane:
Well last night I tried to turn it on and it's always the same.

I'm going to send it to Samsung.

Thanks guys for all your answers.
[Nexus S General] ghost010:
i did read..

you dont need storage to push a rom.

and to fix the storage. you need a working rom to format the storaGE...

there are exactly 4 to 5 drivers you instal to get your nexus S working on the pc.

1 of them is the storage driver(USB massa storage driver)

the other's are phone related.

if it wouldnt turn on,this wouldnt even be happening.

"I thought it was easy but later the phone didint turn on... not Bootloader.. not recovery nor Download mode...

It only lights the buttons in this order...

Power button...

Lights Home button.. then lights search button...

They turn off.

Then Menu and BAck buttons are lighted and thats all...

Black screen, no boot.. Its dead "

this only shows that the current kernel and rom are mesed up.

he is missing the display drivers.

and the capative touch button driver is corrupted.

or, this is a error signal.

showing that something is corrupted.

"Power button...

Lights Home button.. then lights search button...

They turn off.

Then Menu and BAck buttons are lighted and thats all..."

just like mors code.

if it couldnt turn on,than the lights wouldnt even turn on.

What is your favorite online bookstore for Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Android in general? The reason i ask is that almost all book titles are available on Barnes and Nook (I am a previous Nook Color owner) and i have lots of ebooks in my B&N account but some of my favorite magazines like GQ and The New Yorker are not available for Android devices:mad:? Google Books is growing slowly and most online bookstore won't allow DRM free download/import. It would be great to have books and magazines in same place.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bigmille:
Amazon for books and Zinio (not as good as the ipad version, but its getting there) for magazines.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seltaeb:
The Pirate Bay :D

Ok, jokes apart --

* Amazon (the Kindle app is great, except for no page animations)

* Zinio (the app needs to support interactive content -- I can't access my National Geographic subscription, like I can on my iPad)

I also use Feedbooks, through Moon Reader+, to download classics.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sudhirkhanger:
I am annoyed that Conde Nast publications like GQ and The New Yorker is not available on Android.

Aren't classics already available for free on kindle/nook.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sudhirkhanger:
Amazon's magazine collection is too small. So far I find Zinio best for magazines. It is smoother than Nook.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Avazee:
I've done my due diligence (searching for HOURS on end), so I know this has been discussed many times but I still have not seen any sort of solution or progress on how to fix the issue.

Here is the issue: Gmail/Google accounts in WP7, when you press the Trash-can icon to delete your email(s), it does not actually move the email to the 'Trash' folder (or how Gmail understands it, the 'Trash' label). It simply removes the 'Inbox' label but still keeps the message under 'All Mail'.

I've tried everything - set up my email account as an ActiveSync account and tried deleting, going to my Gmail (or any other of my email accounts that resides on Google Apps) account settings via the web browser and try fiddling with the Advanced IMAP options, but nothing.

Does anyone have any solution for this? Unfortunately, this is pretty much a dealbreaker for me with WP7 - I just purchased the HTC Trophy. I want to really love the OS/device (and I do love the OS) but being able to properly delete my Google/Gmail emails is crucial.

I've heard some people, as a temporary stop-gap, to just use the "Move to Folder" and move the email message to [Gmail]\Trash, but I don't see that folder in WP7. Any ideas on this?

Any help or insight in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
There is no solution (as in setting you can change in WP7 or on google.com) that changes this behavior. The only real option is to occasionally log in to your email account on the website and purge old mail from all mail. That's what I do about once every couple of months.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Avazee:
Thanks for the response. That's a real bummer. Do you or anyone know if this is something Microsoft plans on fixing? Basically it just entails making the Delete/Trash Can -> Remove Inbox Label + Add Trash Label to the message.

Also, do you know how I could view the [Gmail]\Trash folder/label? When I try to browse All Folders, it doesn't show up. Any ideas?

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] bver100:
You should be able to change imap settings in gmail. There's a few articles I found, but they're a bit old, and I'm apparently too new of a member to link. I've gone ahead to write a few instructions.

1. Go to settings in your gmail

2. Go to the "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" tab

3. In IMAP access, under "When I mark a message in IMAP as deleted:" select "Auto-expunge off"

4. In IMAP access, under "When a message is marked as deleted and expunged from the last visible IMAP folder:" select "Move the message to the Trash" or "Immediately delete the message forever"

I'm still trying to figure out how exactly the behavior works on my own device. From my understanding, by doing this, you'll send deleted message to the trash rather than archive. It appears that you lose the "instant" server update (so you might have emails that you delete on your phone stay in your inbox as unread for a while).

**edit for further research - It appears that your message will only be deleted if there are no other labels for it. Apparently [gmail]all mail counts as a label. So what the heck did I tell you to do?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Avazee:
Thanks for the reply. I don't understand what your last part meant..the part about your edit for further research. Please clarify. Thanks.

[Windows Phone 7 General] Mujja:
This, and it's the same for IOS, not a WP7 issue.

I read numerous guides looking for a solution but there isn't one. If an email exists in another view, i.e. "All Mail" then it won't be deleted.

After using IOS and WP7 this was one of the main reasons for moving to Android. It may seem a bit extreme but I hate having email I don't need. Everything gets read and deleted.
