This is neither sense nor any rom related. The problem is caused by whatsapp itself. By any reason the app is not able to show contact pictures from the Facebook app itself.

In sense 3.0 Roms and below you could use Facebook for sense to sync the contacts - no problem for whatsapp. The newer sense versions are using the Facebook app for syncing. If you use a third party app like friendcaster the pics are shown correctly.

I recommend to sync the pics with your Google account manually, this is what I did. And then use the Google pics in contacts. I know this is a little work to do and there are apps in the store you can use therefore. But you only have to do it once.

[General Questions and Answers] AndyCr15:
Hi, in just under two weeks I'm travelling to California from the UK for a 10 day trip. I've bought this SIM card -

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290619105098

And I can see the options here -

http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph....jsp?wtSlotClick=1-003B01-0-1&_requestid=6582

But the guy that sold me the SIM now isn't responding. I want to be able to use lots of data, not bothered about calling, but I think the $50 is the safest option. How do I get this on my SIM?

Thanks for any help offered.
[General Questions and Answers] AndyCr15:
Okay, so I've found by activating it I'm making progress, but they send me my password by SIM and it doesn't seem to be coming through :( Is it fairly instant? Will it not come through as I'm in the UK still?
[General Questions and Answers] herzzreh:
Could be the case. Worst comes to worst, just stop by AT&T store when you get to the states. Don't expect any 3g unless your mobile has the required bands. On the other hand... I have Orange prepaid SIM that I bought at Glasto this past summer. It still has around £10 on it and I'd like to keep it active. Do they ever expire?
[General Questions and Answers] AndyCr15:
I think many of them get cancelled if not used for 3 months.

From what I can see, AT&T use 850 and 1900. Gsmarena says I'm good to go!

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note-4135.php

No matter which of my phones I take :)

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9100_galaxy_s_ii-3621.php

(I'll probably take both!)

Yeah, I was wondering I could just call/find a shop when we get there. Would they top up the SIM I already have, no questions asked?
[General Questions and Answers] herzzreh:
They should. You can use a kiosk to avoid all human interaction if you wish.

Note that 850/1900 is only for EDGE. To get UMTS... never mind... you'll be fine.

As for not used - no calls made or not topped up?
[General Questions and Answers] AndyCr15:
It says 850/1900 is for 3G, no?

No calls or texts made for 3 months I think. I could be totally wrong there though.
[General Questions and Answers] herzzreh:
I just misread the specs, you will be fine.

I have a few audiobooks on CD that I want to rip and put on my phone. The tracks will be long, about an hour each. Do any MP3 playing apps support letting me bookmark my place in a file or remember my position for when I go back into the app and file as I wont be listening to it all in one shot.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ultro:
Currently on SFR 1.2, and Lookout just scanned my phone and has flagged Download Crutch as a spyware. As far as I know it's always been in my phone since I first flashed the ROM, and after many previous scans has never raised suspicions from the Lookout app. I've never really been sure what this app does anyway ... it always shows up with Package Installer when I attempt to install an APK. Can I get rid of this? Looked around and saw no mention of this, so in case I didn't look hard enough, sorry :3

Edit: can't post screenshot, but the security warning more or less reads: this app runs in the background recording messaging, gps and call history, then sent to a remote server. *gasp*
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeks:
Just got the same LookOut warning, anyone?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k0nane:
Sounds like a false positive. Download Crutch Lite is nothing but a tiny shim to let the stock browser download any file.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ultro:
Would it be safe to remove it? I don't really use the stock browser. And I noticed I can't simply uninstall since its a system app. Wanna make sure I don't mess with anything ^^ btw thanks for the reply. Was sure I would have to worry about this all day before getting an answer.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k0nane:
Yes, it is safe to remove. If it's in /system/app, use something like Root Explorer or ES File Explorer (etc.) to remove it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crawler9:
You should be fine to remove it. Heck, if you find you do need it, you could always reinstall it later. If you don't even use the stock browser, removing it shouldn't have any effect on you whatsoever.

Edit: The above answer wasn't there when I started typing lol.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rise4310:
heh first google result when i searched after finding this warning from lookout this morning. thanks.

wonder why lookout suddenly doesn't like it...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ultro:
Still grateful for your input ^^	Just uninstalled and re-scanned. All is well once again ... according to Lookout. Thanks again ^^
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ultro:
My thoughts exactly. Either its just an erroneous report ... or its just now that Lookout has caught up with the true sinister nature of Download Cruth. Would sure hope it's the former and not the latter. Don't like the idea I've been carrying this for months being its unsuspecting victim :p

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mutiny32:
Couldn't a 'shim' also be called a rootkit or a malicious MITM program in terms of infosec? From my understanding of how this works, it appears to be a transparent proxy. Perhaps a tcpdump should be done on a phone with and without this installed to verify that no suspicious connections are being made to ANY server when installed. If not, great. If so, then there is a serious problem.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LookoutSupport:
Brian from Lookout here. Our flagging Download Crutch Lite as spyware is a false positive. Our most recent malware sigs has it listed by mistake and we're pushing out new signatures asap to correct it.

Thank you for the update glad i checked xda before i just uninstalled it or wiped my phone or anything crazy
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k0nane:
No, and there's no proxy. What DCL does is fill in unused file associations with itself, thus allowing the browser to download.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitallysick:
Here is my problem,

If I put the phone on "automatic" it will stay on gprs/edge but i will have good cell signal. If I put it on WCDMA then i get 3g /hsdpa

Normally in my area I get 3g on an iphone with no problem. But with the galaxy s2, it doesn't show up unless i select wcdma.

Why is that? and what could be wrong? Why doesnt it auto switch away from edge to hsdpa/3g ?

- Click PIT button choose: latona_20110114.pit

- Shutdown phone

Hi

for my assignment in university i need to build a custom kernel. su/busybox worked fine so far, but i'm stuck with clockworkmod. i can boot fine into recovery, but the OS boot is stuck in the bootanimation (without sound btw) and logcat isn't really helpful.

what i've done so far:

when i got the device i flashed the latest stock ROM i found (XWKJ2), got temp root with ZergRush and pushed the latest SU binary. i unpacked the initramfs from the stock kernel, repacked and flashed it for testing purposes, which worked. i got the CWM zip (4.0.1.5) for the S2, extracted into the initramfs and repack/flashed. now CWM seems to work fine, but if i want to start android it is stuck in a bootloop while waiting for media.player (says logcat).

Now i downloaded https://github.com/teamhacksung/clockworkmod_galaxys2_initramfs

from codeworkx and it obiously worked fine, but i'm not so sure what the difference is besides busybox. also i don't get how changing the recovery binary will affect the boot process. any pointers on how to resolve this issue would be nice. maybe even codeworkx himself :/

will provide more info/logs/sources if needed.

How to hard reset when WP7 won't boot due to SD card issues?

Turn on device > during Magldr when 12345 GO! GO! GO! appears, press and hold vol up/down until grey screen > press vol down twice to perform hard reset.

After reset is complete, go to Settings > About and confirm that it's part of the total storage space. If it's not, hard reset until it is. Worse case... you may need to reflash, but that shoudln't be necessary.

Appeared gray screen, press VolDown (x2) and remains unchanged :(

This operation will 1. Delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. 2. Calculate CRC checksum. Press VolDown to restore manufacturer default, or pres VolUp to get CRC, or press other keys to cancel.

Restoring... wait for complete.

Restore complete.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] anseio:
You did not understand my instructions and did it wrong.

1 - Power on the HD2

2 - Wait for Magldr

3 - When magldr starts to boot WP7, you'll see the screen say "12345" "GO! GO! GO!"

4 - While the 12345 is appearing, THEN press volume up AND down AT THE SAME TIME.

5 - You'll get a grey screen that tells you to press vol down to reset...

This is what you did wrong:

When you turned on the HD2, you pressed vol down. The opened the bootloader (tri-color) screen. This is not the correct place to reset WP7.

You MUST perform the reset after Magldr starts to boot WP7 and not before magldr starts at all.

Try it again. If you do it right, it will work.
