[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whitewash:
Hello,

my gf recently bought a Prestigio reader/tablet with Android (Eclair). Unfortunately, it does not have hardware back/home buttons, instead, those buttons are placed in the title bar. I've downloaded some games from the Market, but some of them run in the fullscreen mode, which hides the whole title bar, making it impossible to quit the game in any other way than rebooting the device.

So - is there any possibility/app utility to force the title bar to remain on, even if some games request to be displayed in full screen?

Hy Guys i uninstalled my weather widget. I used 2.3.5 JVQ and now i want it back because i don`t like other weather widgets. Is there any way to download stock weather widget for i9000? thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upichie:
Pull it from the firmware. Was it from an AOSP firmware or a Samsung Touchwiz firmware? Either way, just grab it from ththe firmware.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bistriteanul:
was from Samsung Touchwiz firmware. how can i put it back?

NOTE: These rooting methods may not work after you install the OTA.

Use Amon Ra recovery to install superuser

This should give you root for ICS Here

Perm Root Method - Gingerbread only

If you unlocked the bootloader with HTCDev.com then use the OneClickRoot with pure zergRush for perm root exploit

Download - OneClickRoot

Once you are perm rooted you can use the disable, enable, Wireless Tether and adblock options in the tool.

===============================================================================

Temp Root Method

Use the root option in the Tool which is only good for temp root with the locked bootloader.

===============================================================================

Tool

New version of temp root to make it easier to use with more options.

Menu driven including:

Temp root

Disable and enable application and other packages

Wireless Tether

Ad block

See screenshot below for all options.

Temp root now holds until reboot.

Disabled applications hold until enabled.

Updated and Working:

Latest zergRush package

Latest adb inline

Latest Superuser and su binary are installed if not already installed

Latest busybox

Thanks to scrosler for the idea of including the application disabling as part of the tool.

Thanks to con247 and meizu devs for the zergRush script that persists until reboot

NOTE: If this does not work for you try scrosler's or con247's versions. Subtle difference may make one or the other work better for you.

Instructions:

Extract all of zip file to your PC

Open folder (do not rename files folder)

Reboot your phone

Make sure HTC Sync is not running on PC

Connect phone in Charge only mode

Double click TempRootTool.bat

Run your choices and exit

Mount SD Card in Settings > SD and phone storage

Have fun.

NOTE: If you do lose root reboot first then reapply.

Menu Options:

1) Temp Root Device - Will temp root your phone and install Superuser if it is not already installed

2) Disable applications - Will disable applications in your application list

3) Enable applications - Will enable applications in your application list

4) Edit Applications List - Will put the application list in notepad for editing (currently set for the bloat I disable)

5) Install Wireless Tether

6) Install ad block host file

R) === Reboot your Device === - Will reboot your device. Reboot if you don't need temp root after managing applications

H) Help - Help information

ENTER - Exit

Download Temp Root Tool v2
[HTC Rezound] con247:
Ill try it on Wednesday when I get the device. Atleast we can use titanium.

One thing I was thinking is there any way we can boot into custom recovery with temp root? Because I know on one phone that I rooted for someone it would just reboot into a temporary custom recovery from which stuff could be flashed. Obviously if it boot looped you needed to RUU restore but it was worth the trouble to get root.
[HTC Rezound] mangler1055:
is this wireless tether app susceptible to verizon identifying unauthorized wifi tether use? I know on other devices only certain ROMS are safe.
[HTC Rezound] zeroxg4:
Just tried this. Unfortunately it doesn't work at all for me. I tried running Cache Cleaner NG and it said that it was unable to get root permissions. I tried clicking on SuperUser (the app itself) and it FCs every time.

EDIT: Rebooted and tried again and it appears to be working.

EDIT2: Not working again. Seems to only last a few minutes.
[HTC Rezound] reverepats:
Alright enough is enough. Imma try it.now. all this talk about root is driving me nuts. Thanks Nils..
[HTC Rezound] riot1031:
I tried to get temp root using the zerg technique, and it didn't work too good. I want to try this method, but I'm not sure how to remove the Superuser from my first attempt. It doesn't show up as an uninstallable app. Can anyone shed some light for me? Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] combatmedic870:
its worked for me! though it still didnt mount the SD, so i took off the back lifted the battery a LITTLE and used a paper clip to slide out the sd and then to slide it back in. then i went to TI and it didnt want to work, so i uninstalled and reinstalled both, and then it worked. now i have everything frozen that i wanted. :cool:
[HTC Rezound] narcco:
The first try it worked but something didnt go through so i reboot the phone tried it again and worked like a charm. thank you greatly appriciated
[HTC Rezound] con247:
Do the things stay frozen after a reboot?
[HTC Rezound] WorldOfJohnboy:
You know, you can go into SETTINGS>SD & Phone Storage and remount it that way... for next time.

I tried this and mine also unmounted my SD Card and Titanium didn't have root access. Uninstalled Titanium and the phone rebooted on its own and is now in a an infinite boot loop. Guess I am going to have to use HBOOT, wipe the phone and start ALL FREAKING OVER AGAIN! fml
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
Lol, talk about doing it the hard way! Just go to Settings>SD & Phone Storage>Mount SD Card and wa-la! No need to physically slide it out then back in lol.
[HTC Rezound] combatmedic870:
well...yea.....:o
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Just pull the battery
[HTC Rezound] 1967ls2:
Nils, question. Do I just download the zip file directly to my phones sdcard in the described folder I would create, then install it from there directly from the phone?
[HTC Rezound] ChaOConnor:
To answer this question, yes they do!!!

So let's start a "What can we safely freeze" list. I was pretty conservative the first time:

Blockbuster

Backup Assistant

VCast

VCast Music

Let's Play Golf

Need for Speed

Rebooted and they're all still gone. Root has been lost though, I'd have to re-run the app to get root back.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
No, you install it from your PC
[HTC Rezound] combatmedic870:
what i have frozen safely without any ill affects.

all verizon apps besides backup assistant, my verizon mobile, voicemail.

also took off, facebook, flickr, amazon, polaris, internet, mobile im, blockbuster, also games.

but....try them out yourself....this is what i have taken off without anything wrong....doesnt mean it wont screw your phone up! :)
[HTC Rezound] con247:
Awesome. If they stay frozen i can live without soff/root for much longer.
[HTC Rezound] enigmad:
I am having the same issue with applying the update, root installs fine and when I reboot root is gone, along with Superuser, Busybox, etc. installed it a few times and every time I reboot root gets lost.
[HTC Rezound] LexusBrian400:
Thats the whole point of TEMP root. When you reboot, Root is GONE. You have to Re-root every time you reboot your phone.

[XPERIA X8 General] nima7:
Its been @4 days since I'm using GDX V019. It Journey so far was somewhat 'choppy' but exciting.:D

The latest problem I'm facing is my X8 is just refusing USB connection to my laptop. Once I press 'Turn on USB Storage' x8 simply restarts.

Because of this I'm not able to even restore as I've not kept the back-up file on the SD Card (2 GB only).

Any idea?

Do full wipe,and problem should be gone :-)

Hey guys,

I currently have CM7 flashed but for some reason the arrows on the send/receive portion of the 3G icon are not flashing. I tried flashing a different rom, wiped data/cache and it happened on that rom too. Any ideas?

Thanks!!

So are you still sending and receiving data when this happens.

It was flashing before I reflashed cm7 for the kernel.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dnorthington:
The AT&T Messages app will do VVM with your native mail and give you some other Google voice type functions. I don't like the delay for google voice vmail to pick up if you don't reject the call.

OK, so I just downloaded and installed Sinister's latest ROM, if you haven't checked it out it is awesome. The only problem I am having is that I can not get my boot animation to install. Is there a new way with the latest updates to install the boot animations (I have the Android pissing on the Apple Logo)???
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grayn0de:
Have you tried using adb to push the bootanimation.zip? May want to check with the ROM dev on the proper name for bootanimation.zip (I know it is different on Sense 1.0 roms) as well as the proper location to push to.

The file will be in either /system/customize/resource or /data/local. Rename your bootanimation.zip to the name of the previous one and you should be good to go.

[EVO 4G General] cnstarz:

[EVO 4G General] megabiteg:
We all have been around the cell phone industry enough to know that if the phone is more than a year old, they don't care if its the best seller, they just care to produce the next best seller because they need to keep that revenue coming down the pipeline.

It shouldn't be of surprise that they are getting rid of the OG inventory, to make room for the new ones in there forum list, our phone is officially "not supported" anymore. What should really matter from now on is that we have support here, and we control what we can do and not do with our OG Evo 4g and that is something they will never be able to take away from us.

I jumped on to this phone kind of late in the game (2 months ago) after being stuck with the Epic 4g, but even if its the end of the line, I'm still pretty happy with the phone and I like everything from it. Haven't felt so happy with a phone in a long time, and that's what counts for me!

Ya I've had 2 of these phones and they both squeek like hell n I do have. Anker
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dung8604:
When you're typing, right? And it seems to be coming from the closest edge to the space bar, where your fingers support the phone? I think it's a combination of the anker battery being too thick and the battery cover curving the wrong way.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Ditto.

Do you guys with squeaks have cases on your phone? I'd guess not (but could be wrong) and while an imperfect solution maybe a case of some sort would alleviate some of the issue?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
I don't use a case. That theory doesn't work.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dung8604:
Exactly what I was thinking, but so far haven't found one with the profile I prefer yet.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
Well, I stopped on the way home from work today to see what was new at Sprint. I've been thinking about getting the EVO 3D... I came home with a Touch.

So. I want to root, so I can run root apps like um, Ad Free etc. What do I need to know about rooting this before I jump in head first? Do these phones have any stupid security etc or anything I need to know about?

I just wanna make sure I don't mess anything up.

What do we have for a recovery etc?

Any tips would be GREAT!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
E4GT doesn't have all the locked bootloader stuff to worry about like EVO 3D.

You can start off here:

[ROOT][EG30] Automated root of your existing stock ROM (w/o ODIN or ROM Flash)

That will get you rooted on stock and won't involve flashing anything. It doesn't use ODIN.

There is also a tool called ODIN which lets you flash stuff to the phone outside of Android. It provides fastboot-like functionality. Using ODIN, if you flash unsigned kernels, your boot screen will get a yellow triangle and there is a flash count that gets incremented. Also it'll identify the phone in the boot screen by the real model name (I9100...) rather Galaxy S2. Other than that it'll still boot and work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
Question about this ODIN flasher thingy and the unsigned kernels. Why the increment count etc? What is the point to that?

Thanks for the info btw. I think the link you sent will be a good start. Don't need to flash any custom roms yet. I wanna get the hang of the stock one first. This Samsung has a very different feel then the HTC EVO/Sense stuff.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Need to ask Samsung.

Probably they want to keep track of whether you installed non-standard software, possibly for service reasons.

---------- Post added at 01:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:35 AM ----------

BTW you can use a USB jig to get rid of the Yellow Triangle and reset the flash counter.

If you just want to get rid of the Yellow Triangle, you can flash back the stock kernel, then use other methods like the Root Installation Kit I pointed to earlier.

Once you get CWM, flashes through that won't affect the Yellow Triangle and flash count.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duced:
Just watch the roots right now the odin has an issue with LOS from what I have seen. I am currently using a direct root which roots the rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
I assume LOS means loss of service?

OK! Noted.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poppygt:
Stock phones suffer from LOS too. Rooting and some kernels MAY make it worse. I've flashed nearly everything available for this device in the last month and have not had 1 serious unexplainable LOS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
OK! Well I did the MOST important thing I wanted to do which was to get root in there so I could use Adfree!

I also did the EG30+CWM5 while I was there. Now what? What cool stuff is there to play with? Looking around the forums now, just not sure what to check out first.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
If it were me, I would use the phone as is for a few days to get some feel for whether your situation will get LoS and what the battery life is. Then you have a baseline to compare to after you start making changes.

It is easy to get really excited and install a whole bunch of stuff and all of a sudden you get LoS or really bad battery life, and then you can't figure out what caused it or even what to expect with the stock phone.

This could lead you to think the phone is at fault when it is actually something that was installed later.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poppygt:
Also with the official Samsung rom out now most of the roms in development will be getting reworked shortly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
Can someone point me to a thread that explains LOS and what do you do if you get it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] N00dle:
As far as I know the only thing you can really do is reboot the phone. going back to a stock kernal also helps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoMatt:
Install set CPU and underclock that puppy! Especially with the screen off. 200 min has worked flawlessly for me, and 800mhz Max still flies for most things.

completely agree. been underclocked to 800mhz for a while. No difference in performance and battery increased probably 20%
