So, not sure what I did, but my Facebook account has disappeared from my list of accounts on my phone. When I go to add a new account, the Motorola Facebook icon is already checked. If I select it, it says I can only have one Facebook account. So, it both does and doesn't think i have a Facebook account. The icon in the list from the Facebook app does nothing, which i think is normal behavior. I do not get profile pics from Facebook in my contacts, so it is not syncing.

Truth be told, this is only an annoyance. I do not want to reset to factory (I have way too many apps to reinstall, which would be more annoying than this problem). But, if anyone can think of how I could manually convince the system to let me re-add the account, any suggestions would be appreciated.
[Motorola Droid 3] niko99:
hi, I have exactly the same problem, so I will aslo grateful for help in this matter
[Motorola Droid 3] Mathieu2k4:
I had the same problem, and I did a trick with SQlite Editor

Install it then,

In SQLite Editor you select: Accounts Storage -> serviceaccounts.db -> accounts -> then you delete the line which have "Facebook" in the column "account_pretty_name"

After a reboot I was able to re-enter a Facebook account in the blur app.

And now it works perfectly
[Motorola Droid 3] jfont25:
That did it. Much appreciated.
[Motorola Droid 3] American_Standard:
This is an older thread, but I'm having the same problem on my new RAZR MAXX (Verizon, unrooted, stock 2.3.6). I have 2 facebook icons under "My Accounts", one that allows me to put my log in info in and nothing else, the second that does nothing when I click it. I am not able to get my calendar or my contacts to sync with facebook and I'm at a loss.

What I've tried so far:

Rebooting

Deleting the FB account info and re-entering it within the My Accounts settings.

Uninstalling FB app (the unresponsive FB icon goes away in My Accounts), reinstalling and rebooting.

When that didn't work I ended up calling the new Google help and the person I talked too ran me through the steps I had already taken and suggested I contact FB as it appears that the issue is with the app. I am pulling the app straight from Google Play, but it would make sense as that is the culprit since it's not syncing with Calender or Contacts.

I already have a SGS2.Just came across this app.

https://market.android.com/details?id=eu.chainfire.sgs2simunlockcode&feature=search_result

So by using this app,

Can i

Buy a carrier locked phone and use this app to use other networks(in other countries).?

Effectively saving money???:confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ephumuris:
Yes. Although that app didn't work for me there is another on the market which is apparently more dangerous to use. It had great reviews so I ran it and I was unlocked to all networks.

Of course for data to work correctly you may need to flash an unbranded rom or manually input your apn settings!

This is on CM7 latest nightly. Also on stock. I can see all my external SD's contents in /mnt/emmc and my internal sd in /mnt/sdcard.

Music player sees all my music on the Micro SD; however, because it's not linked to internal some how I cannot get Moboplayer to see contents of my micro.

Hopefully it's understandable :p

So how do I get my micro sd linked to /sdcard? Symlink?

Thanks very much

Edit: got Moboplayer to scan my /mnt/emmc folder, but preferably I'd still like to create a symlink in /sdcard. Anyone explain?

[General Questions and Answers] wils0292:
can any one helo me with this?

i have a samsung galaxy s2 from bell it was flashed with xxki3 package that included a bootloader pda phone and csc files. i want to return my phone to the stock bell files ugkg2 but the firmware i downloaded does not have a bootloader just the pda phone and csc files.

am i right to assume that the bootloader that came with the xxki3 firmware even after i flash the ugkg2 firmware remains on my phone thats why whin i flash to it the phone wont boot?

i am a noob but my understand is there is check points in the bootloader and the firmware of xxki3 that must match up and if they dont meaning u change the firmware and not the bootloader and the phone wont load? is this correct?

also is the bootloader from xxki3 secure? meaning it cant be changed?

how do i find the ugkg2 bootloader to flash with the ugkg2 firmware?

or how do i unsecured the xxki3 bootloader so i can flash back to the ugkg2

sorry for the noob questions but i have been searching for about a week now to be able to get off this xxki3 firmware so i can load a coustom rom

PLEASE HELP!!

[Verizon Droid Charge] rorkin:
When connected to WIfi at home , DHCP allocates 3 addresses to phone

192,168.40 , 104 & 118.

Curious why this happens.. Descrete aps communicating through different addresses ?? I thought that is what ports were for
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
That doesn't even sound possible. Are you sure they are all your Charge? Could they be other devices? Are the MAC addresses the same, or even similar?
[Verizon Droid Charge] rorkin:
Yes-- I have a program that scans the network and assocciated mac addresses.

The fact thet they were all the mac address for the phone is what started me questioning..
[Verizon Droid Charge] Dalamar1320:
I have to agree with shrike. Doesn't seem plausible. some routers will keep a log of previously connected devices, and so they show up in the lan dchp pool list. But to have one device using 3 ip addresses at once... Not likely. You could try to ping each ip address from a computer on the same lan, to which I'm pretty sure 2 of those ip addresses time out.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rorkin:
Sounds like a plan
[Verizon Droid Charge] rorkin:
Last scan revealed 4 addresses but only one returned a ping..

DHCP pool I guess is not releasing some addresses
[Verizon Droid Charge] zeuswsu:
If your phone can connect to the internet and only one ip returns a ping, then dhcp is in fact releasing the other ip addresses. Something must be messed up with your program.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rorkin:
Could be.. It is a piece of freeware called advanced IP scanner.. (it is not very advanced)
[Verizon Droid Charge] Dalamar1320:
Why not just log into your router and see what's going on, then rely on some freeware program that may or may not be accurately showing the proper ip addresses.

My main reasons are for the bigger screen, design, LED. Do you think I'm being stupid?

Btw 16gb is more than enough for me so no need of sd card, almost never play games, don't really use camera and saw sample photos from galaxy nexus it looked good and even better than Iphone 4s to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kidserious:
Nope, I don't. I would do the exact same thing. And I REALLY wanted the SGSII to come to verizon as well. So that tells you it's a smart choice IMO?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] legendary1022:
It is your money and if it makes you happy do what you want to do. You could probably sell your galaxy s2 and have most of the galaxy nexus paid for unlocked.

I sure hope so :) but I'm sure that before I buy ill wanna try it out :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericc191:
Speaking of selling.. anyone want to buy a G2 for $529?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hollow.Droid:
In the same boat here and it really is a difficult decision. In one mind I love my GS2 but the 720p display, pure google experience and notification led is certainly attractive!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] upyouratrix:
I just returned my AT&T GS2 a few minutes ago and I'll be picking up the Galaxy Nexus. I really liked the GS2, but as a Nexus One owner, there's nothing like owning a Nexus!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
it's more of a side grade from SGS2 to GN, but if you count the screen, then yeah the larger 720p is an upgrade
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Griffrez:
And huge software support. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simba501:
Very true. I'm slightly considering it just because of that (development).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Spartoi:
Try visiting the SGS2 section.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] android_master:
Well friends have taken the hard decision,,sold my SGS 2 to one of my friend{at a very good price},,now waiting for Samsung Galaxy Nexus to launch in India next week,,have used{still using} Nexus 1 & the notification led and stock google experience and a huge development support is great.

So going for Galaxy Nexus:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] peacekeeper05:
Fast updates and software support is enough reason to ditch GS2 for the galaxy nexus. Especially now that manufacturers are beginning to move to next stage of hardware. 720p will be the next standard for screen resolution. and when android 5.0/jelly bean comes, Galaxy Nexus will be getting it officially. And Galaxy S2 might not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qreffie:
+1

I'd definitely go with any Nexus device over any other Android phone simply because of the updates. Google will keep their promise to keep their devices updated for the minimum 18 months that they're asking all the other manufacturers to do. Samsung apparently isn't going to update the SGS1 even though it could handle the update (has nearly the same specs as the NS for crying out loud) and they'll more than likely try to skin 4.0 when they do get around to updating. I remember waiting and waiting and waiting for my Vibrant to get 2.2 before I finally ditched it for the Nexus S. Never looked back after that choice. You will not be disappointed with your decision to sell and wait for the GN.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aviatorarun:
Yeahh Totally..!!! I hope Galaxy Nexus will be unveiled along with the Samsung Galaxy Note on Nov 2. Cant wait... Just 2 days to go.. :))
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] esincho:
I'm guessing everyone saying it will get updates faster don't root y'all phones?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] peacekeeper05:
It still takes time for developers to port official android updates to non nexus device. so basically the nexus line up gets the fastest, conplete, less buggy and timely updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] esincho:
I understand. And i agree about lest bugs. But cm team pretty fast after the initial port adding updates. Like for .2 .3 know what I'm saying?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] peacekeeper05:
It took the CM team months before they were able to provide stable 2.3 build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] esincho:
On what phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brent8577:
i started considering it, but i need to see the price of a 32 GB GSM model vs the resale value of my ATT GSII. i doubt there will be a 32 GB GSM before the next big phone i would want starts its hype machine, so it might get a pass.

a 16 GB only version is not an option for me. without considering the flacs of my record collection, i was taking sd video on a 3 day vacation and ran out of 16 GB on an OG Droid. you certainly won't be able to record much in 1080p, maybe none if you put your music on it.

---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:32 PM ----------

until the Samsung Touchwiz ICS is released, any CM or other ICS ROM that comes will not have all of the audio, video, camera, kies, and hdmi out features. those of us that don't want to lose certain features may want to be on a phone where that won't happen. i'm not interested in paying for a video player app that does something my phone already does.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
some of you are forgetting the idea of ICS 4.0 to unite all the Android hardware, and eliminate the AOS version fragmentation that currently affects older model

with ICS 4.0 out, all tablets and phones running GB 2.3.x / HC 3.0.x will be merged into one

so when 5.0 comes out, everyone will be upgraded as well
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] natzy85:
I want to sell or exchange my SGS2 for Galaxy Nexus. I want to do it for the screen ,camera and software but I want to know the following:

- how is the battery life compared to SGS2 ? ( because I know it cannot be replaced it is very important to know if it will last 1 day );

- I love the fact that it has 0 shutter lag and I want to know if I can get good audio recording in video ( SGS2 sucks when recording a live concert or even a party ). Is Voodoo sounds app compatible? What audio chipset it has?

- if I get a locked version will I be able to unlock it after root? I know I did it with my i9100.

Thank you for all the info!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] albsat:
I had a S2 and now a nexus. In Nexus you will loose:

Better display of S2

Additional memory

Audio in my opinion is disappointing in Nexus

Samsung Apps

No need to put extra dollars to get a Nexus. Keep galaxy s2 for the next Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] natzy85:
Thank you for the info! I am not putting extra dollars since here in the black market the SGS2 is the same price as Nexus :).

I have seen that Voodoo Sound is not compatible with Nexus only the S. I really hate the fact the I cannot record good audio quality in louder situations. How come the display is worse then SGS? Because is not Super AMOLED Plus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rasinell:
Had gs2 and can't agree about the screen.. the colours are brighter but over saturated and unrealistic. Also the resolution... it looks 8bit next to gnex. Not bashing gs2, its a good phone and I know some have issues with gnex screen but for me I only have purple tinge on 0 brightness (who uses that??)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wildkarrde21:
Just wanted to mention that I am also selling my GS2 for a GN. As far as I know, the GN does have a replaceable battery, so that should handle your first concern.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evojos:

[LG Thrill 4G] quarlow:
AAB stands for AT&T Address Book. I had that issue also when I disabled the sync for it in my accounts in settings. I don't use it, so I figured turning off the sync might save some battery. But, after that I could not open the contacts, just AAB initializing. Even after I turned it back on it wouldn't work. I had to reflash the ROM to fix mine. Factory reset in the privacy option is your last ditch option to fix it if all else fails.

I was an idiot and deleted the AT&T Contacts App without backing it up. Even a factory reset won't bring it back. There was a thread floating around here before about other people that did that and we tried a whole bunch of ways to get the .apk file for it on there, but it just wouldn't work. Ended up saying f it and decided we just had to wait for AT&T to give us the Gingerbread update to get it back.

Hello, I have rooted, updated, and gone into recovery to install the Yay SBF and update to zipalign and de-odex the system through the boostrap recovery, I get no errors, but when the system loads, all the odex files are still there. I would post this in the thread itself, but I cannot post there due to my post count.

Are the odex files supposed to remain there? Or is something not going right? I am totally confused, I have had 3 other Android phones, and have rooted and loaded custom roms, as well as created custom themes for theme, and have never encountered this issue, any help would be appreciated.
