[T-Mobile LG G2x] ed116:
hey tahahawa, thanks for your input, im really leaning towards CM7, but i have a couple of questions, does the phone freeze/blank screen? i cant have that happen please let me know any issues with gps or anything? i cant seem to find anything on cm7 please let me know :)

also - if i restore back to stock 2.2.2 from the back up i have made on my phone, will it restore the phone exactly to stock i.e, if i was having gps issues it would be fixed, also would it return it to stock kernel and stock baseband which is the june 05 one i believe?? and if i upgrade it will it provide a new baseband?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
Black screen doesn't happen to me very often and it's only because I'm pushing the phone really hard oc/UV a lot. baseband will not be upgraded with the ROM. Neither will the baseband be backed up with the nandroid.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ed116:
Hey thanks for the quick reply, i installed CM7, and im having 1 issue with it, which is, when i take pictures, i have to use an External SD card? why is this? i like using my internal one? is there anyway i can make it so?

FIXED - went into settings and enabled internal SD card use lol

- is it just me or is the volume in music a bit low? compared to 2.2.2 with DTS lol

OMg im loving this rom :3

also how do i remove wifi calling guys? i think it uses memory, and im on wind so i dont preticularly need it lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
There is an app called dsp manager, use it to solve sound problem. remove /system/app/kineto.apk you will get a ton of fcs but reboot and everything will be fine and you won't have wifi calling.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ed116:
How do I remove it with the Linda file manager it doesn't work it says it can't be deleted because its a read only app
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ed116:
Also guys I'm having another issue when ever my sister texts me I don't receive her messages I receive blank :/ no subject in the preview this is odd cause everyone else's msgs I get them and I got her msgs before this
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
requires a root enabled file explorer or adb. File expert is one that would work, you just need to enable root in the settings. About the texts, what phone does she have? I don't have any issues with texting, I get texts from Nokias, iPhones, other Androids etc. I have no idea what the problem is.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ed116:
She has a blackberry 9780 on wind also this is tripping me out I.called her number but its actually going to My old number I don't know I have to see her phone and run tests

anyways also in settings under status it does now notice mY number? Is this a common issue?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
Just enter your number manually. I also get texts from blackberries, make sure she isn't sending mms/bbm accidentally. But I wouldn't know.

Edit: if you don't mind changing roms you could try weapon g2x, a stock 2.3.3 based ROM. Everything should work on there and it has many tweaks, almost as many as cm I believe.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ed116:
exactly what i was thinking :3 im just sad i set it up all h appy and all with cm7 :3 ill back it up first, the one i have now, then ill factory reset wipe cache and dalvik, test it out from there, also question: do i have to revert back to 2.2 to flash weapon or can i go straight ahead and flash it over cm7?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
Flash it over cm but don't forget to wipe /system as well as the regular wipes. (data, cache, dalvik).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ed116:
how do i wipe /system ? :$

sorry im such a noob im used to teh captivate which was > one click back to stock 2.1 , rom manager clockworkmod and then flash :(

i dont want to mess my phone up :(

edit: ok i didnt know how to delete /system so i just factory reset , wiped cache, battery stats, dalvik cache - > restored again to cm 7.1 the stable one, same problem with the same number, then again wipe cache/factory reset/dalvik cache/batt stats > back to stock 2.2.2, now gonna flash weapon :)

edit 2: ok i figured out how to delete /system :p and now i flashed weapon g2x :) thanks so much!!! gonna test it out :p

edit 3: with weapon i can text my sister, system with touchwiz (which i love!!) seems alot smoother than cm7

two problems: voice search when updating it gives me "error package was not signed correctly"

and youtube wont update itself, ive tried but i get stuck on a Loading and a circle of loading .. tried on wifi and network.

thanks again! Especially tahahawa!!!
[Kindle Fire General] forever29:
I've rooted my Fire and installed the Android Market without a problem. When I

first opened the market I logged in with my Google account to make sure everything

worked. Since I got this device for my dad, I'd rather he log in with his own Google

account. I've cleared the app data, and even deleted and re-installed. I can't get

the option to log in with a different google account and it stays with mine. Is there

a solution to this? Has anyone else experienced this?
[Kindle Fire General] markcyst:
Without access to the Account and Sync menu, I believe you'll need to uninstall and do a fresh reinstall of the market
[Kindle Fire General] forever29:
I've uninstalled the market and re-installed with the apk. Or is there a more precise uninstall I should be doing?
[Kindle Fire General] bsoplinger:
In the Android development subforum here the long how to install market thread has reference to getting gmail to sync and those posts reference another thread with a link to a Sync Settings app. That will allow you to add another gmail account or delete one in addition to setting up sync items and auto sync. If I knew the post I'd gladly supply it but all I remember is where I found reference to the app.

Then just add your dad's email then subtract yours. Then to market and your set.

Added: found reference in a thread in this subforum on syncing contacts: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19461785&postcount=2
[Kindle Fire General] forever29:
Worked great. I installed "Quick Sync Settings" from the market. Thank you for providing that link.
[Kindle Fire General] mewshi:
I just hit "menu" and added an account from the Market. Or maybe GMail. It was pretty simple, really.
[Kindle Fire General] forever29:
The menu from the market app wash giving me the option. Not until I added another gmail account through the sync settings it did.
[Kindle Fire General] igumzi:
Hi I have a similar question but just about the amazon app store. I have been using a separate email account to buy apps than the one to buy all my kindles and books. Is there any work around to have both amazon.com accounts logged in or to keep the apps and books installed while I am on my other account or the other?

I have rooted the tablet and have my google market running fine so I might just have to stick to that.

Thank you
[Kindle Fire General] downsay:
Can't you install Anycut from the android market, open it, create new activity, select accounts and sync or whatever the activity is called, and then go from there?

Additionally can you open the Gmail app, menu, accounts, add account...from here, go to the android market and then you should have 2 different gmail accounts to choose between?
[Kindle Fire General] igumzi:
Thanks for that. I tried it and it crashes the system. I actually have two account from google on my market, but my main problem is accessing the apps that are registered to my gmail account. Mainly because my kindle account is a separate email and every time you deregister the Kindle it deletes your books or installs the apps.
[Kindle Fire General] downsay:
Are you rooted and having these problems? Sorry to hear it didn't work:(
[Kindle Fire General] igumzi:
Yeah I am it's ok. One of thoes things that happens with rooting. I'll just wait and see when a rom comes out or might just try rerooting for the heck of it.

Thanks for your help
[Kindle Fire General] RobertMunch:
Anyone figure out how to remove the main gmail account without having to do a factory reset? I made the mistake of putting in an email address I didn't want to have added. I've already tried adding a second GMail account and removing the primary and got the prompt to factory reset.
[Kindle Fire General] igumzi:
Yeah I was able to remove gmail accounts using anycut. I am just stuck with the amazon drm sadly

Hey

Have Toxic Rom installed but don't think this is a Rom issue.

Am using GO SMS and on occasion I get the following message

The application Messaging(process.com.android.mms) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again

Force close

Tried re installing and no joy is there any solution to stop this ?
[General Questions and Answers] fernando_dx:
Hi everyone! Bad news :

I did an upgrade from WM 5.2 to 6.5 on my VOX/S710 and everything was ok, except for the rom wich was in English/German. I was looking for a Spanish one.

I've found a rom I thought it was the correct one but when I did the flash procedure the cellphone suddenly turn off. I've pushed the "on" button and nothing, i put to charge the battery (USB and main power cable)but there's no led activity, it's completely dead.

I've tried to enter the 'bootloader' mode but it doesn't work and the same thing for the soft reset.

The battery was fully loaded before that happens.

Extra: sometimes when i plug the usb, the red led shines for less than a second. I've read that maybe a fuse is broken but i couldn't find any info about it, where's placed, etc.

¿What can i do? :confused: Thanks.
[Atrix 4G General] buschman69:
I've had my Atrix for about 6 months and suffered through the normal issues without complaining (occasional random reboots & lockups, flaky fingerprint scanner, etc).

Recently my fingerprint scanner stopped working completely. In the past I've been able to get it started again by removing the battery, that doesn't help anymore -- it's completely dead. I've see some posts about cleaning the scanner pad, I may have to try that.

Additionally I now have a black spot in my photos and videos. There's apparently some debris under my camera lens; the spot moves around but it's always there.

I called the ATT handset warranty center expecting them to swap it out for a refurb unit; this isn't ideal but better than what I have. Instead here's the answer I got:

Fingerprint Scanner: "Motorola tells us this isn't a warrantable concern, you have alternate methods to unlock your screen". You can call Motorola directly to see if they'll do anything for you.

Debris inside the camera lens: "Oh, that voids your warranty." I advised the lens is a sealed unit and the debris must have been in there since day one. Their argument is that since I just noticed it now (i.e. it just loosened up and moved into an area where it's noticeable) it is not a warrantable concern and by the way it also voids my phone's warranty.

I'm floored by both answers and pretty shocked. The customer service agent was very matter-of-fact and I know she's reciting the company line.

Anbody have a similar experience?
[Atrix 4G General] firefox3:
I have stuff under my front facing camera ,it looks like dust and it is very noticeable. The camera on the back i can see a smudge that is under the lense. You can see it when you go to take a picture. It was caused when i was at Red Lobster, my dad spilled water on my phone and the water leaked under the glass but now it is all gone and it has left behind dust. I have also been experiencing the screen doing things by itself , uncontrolable movement causing me to have to lock and relock the device for it to become usable again. I called ATT and told them everything and NONE of the water circles that determine water damage have changed colors , they are all white. Att said it would cost 150$ for a new phone. Basiclly with me paying 5$ a month for insurance for my phone and then when i have a problem it costs 150$ for a new one? or even a used one i don't see the point in having insurance !
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Not any more. Check with AT&T again. The warranty cost went up a month or so ago, and the deductible for the Atrix is now $199. I think it went up in October if I remember correctly.
[Atrix 4G General] milesjohnson:
yea my fp scanners dead
[Atrix 4G General] cjrhoades:
This is why I don't bother with buying insurance on my phones anymore. Most of the time you're just paying a monthly fee for nothing, and when something does go wrong, you get screwed anyway.
[Atrix 4G General] lostinbeta:
They just dropped the atrix 4g down to a tier 2 device so the deductible is $125 now according to at&ts website.

I've switched back to my nexus one for now because my atrix was giving me too many issues. 4-5 battery pulls a day because of screen freezes. Touch screen firing erratically, overheating and shutting down, random reboots, wifi unable to connect unless I restart. It occurs regardless of what rom or kernel including stock everything (it started before I started flashing so I actually thought it was stock issues). Debating which course of action to take with it but I don't have insurance and its bootloader unlocked which may or may not cause issues if I go to Motorola (always a case by case basis i suppose)
[Atrix 4G General] ifalldownalot:
I've never had such a thing happen to my phone.

knock wood.
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
I stand corrected! Funny how they changed the Atrix back after only a couple of weeks. Wonder how many people were stuffed with the $199 in that time period!

http://www.wireless.att.com/learn/en_US/pdf/wireless-phone-insurance-deductible-schedule.pdf
[Atrix 4G General] firefox3:
I still would never pay 125 for a new atrix ! i would rather buy a nexus s ! or save up for a galaxy nexus
[Atrix 4G General] Azurael:
Interesting, but I certainly wouldn't take a rebadged Galaxy S in preference to an Atrix, even if they were released at a similar time!
[Atrix 4G General] lostinbeta:
Thanks for linking the document. I only knew the information because a few days prior to reading this thread I was looking up insurance information for a friend of mine and I happened to look down in curiosity to what it would be for the Atrix. I didn't have time to find it and link it when I replied here though.

AT&T is shifty!
[Atrix 4G General] againareku:
just call back in, say you are having constant reboots and force closes, tell them you did a hard reset, still no change, and they should send you out a warranty unit

once they get your unit back, they won't actually use the phone so there's no way to tell there aren't resets [and besides, you will send it to them in a factory reset anyways so it will load up with a blur sign up menu]
[Atrix 4G General] tjdmobile:
Ya - well hopefully this never happens to me...bet the galaxy nexus can't run my laptop dock and multimedia dock.
[Atrix 4G General] Sass86:
I thought it was common knowledge that AT&T sucks. Send your phone to Motorola, they will fix it. AT&T is full of **** saying moto says its not covered by warranty, why would they tell you to contact moto directly then!! AT&T can blow me, they charge for premium and give sub standard.
[Atrix 4G General] firefox3:
Motorola will fix my device for free?
[Atrix 4G General] lostinbeta:
Depends on if they consider the problems to be fixable under warranty. A lot of companies try to weasel out of it though. If your device has scratches, dents or dings they might try to say you dropped it and that caused the problems. Or if you are bootloader unlocked they can claim you voided your warranty because you may have installed software that jacked up your phones hardware. I don't know how Motorola is with this, and you won't know unless you submit it for warranty repair and find out.
[Atrix 4G General] Sass86:
Sry for the late response. I'm saying I unlocked my bootloader, reflashed stock gingerbread firmware, then sent in my atrix for repair of digitizer and fps for free.

[Defy Android Development] alexander555:
Hello,

I Think the defy need to much mA/h in standby (Tested with multiple and different Roms - Basic Installation)

So far I see the defy need ca. 50 mA/h and that is maybe because the sensors are not disabled and need to much power for a standby mode

Does anybody know a solution to disable sensors so I can make a retest?
[Defy Android Development] pprakash:
I feel the same. But with Walter79's Defy+ ROM the battery used to last 2 days minimum and in the Stock or CM7 it lasts a little more than 24 hours. Not sure if its only the sensors or the Radio Power usage though.

My current usage is 40ma/h as reported by Battery Montioring Widget. Currently on 2G Network and Automatic Display brightness and vsel 300/18,600/28,1000/52 with SmartAss governor.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Spewy1:
Who has got the GN and is happy with the camera quality.

I took the plunge on this phone based on some sample pics i had seen but my first pics are awful. My htc desire took much better pics, in fact my Nokia N97 was better than this.

I took some pics today but it was quite dull but the pics came out wishy washy and out of focus.

Will the camera be improved with an update? Or am I stuck with it? I was going to sell my previous phone the S2 but I think I might hold fire a couple of weeks because i can't live with this.

Otherwise the Nexus seems great.

That definitely looks like the photographer's fault. The first picture clearly has motion blur, and the second one is poorly focused.

Are you sure you're tapping the screen to focus before taking the picture?

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MetaDude:
Hi Guys

For those people thinking of getting the Flyer here's an example of some real life battery usage results.

I've got a BestBuy WIfI only Flyer and I'm running Paul O'Brien's HoneyComb 3.41.405.1 rom.

Without doing anything special (E.g. turning services off etc) I managed to get over 8 hours constant usage with the vast bulk of that time spent streaming videos from you tube.

I've been running the Flyer ON-STOP since full charge and I've got 8% battery left. For 6 1/2 of those hours I've been watching YouTube videos (Just left it playing through my playlists) so it's been using WiFi for at least that long out of the 8 hours.

Regards
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MrS600L:
8hrs sounds about right. I use mine for work & it last from 8am to about 4pm, using WiFi or 3G, streaming radio, or playing music. Surfing the net, emails, working on documents etc. The display is the biggest user of battery life. So if you give it a break & leave it in sleep mode for a few hours, it will last longer.
[HTC EVO 3D] constevens:
Ok here is the issue. Ive had my Evo 3d Since release, yes its rooted and all the good stuff. But recently i started getting issues with everything from the lock screen ring not responding always to even ghosting of the touch screen. Basically things being selected when im not even touching it. Or when I try to text it wont always select the letters I chose or even numbers when trying to dial a number. I can reset it and it works some but then fails again. From my looking online this is a Touch screen and digitizer issue most likely. Anyone ever have any issues like this or hear of them? Im thinking of just buying a touchscreen and digitizer assembly and replacing it as I would prefer to keep my root (im rooted Via Revolution with 1.40)

Any tips or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!! Also any suggestions on where the best place to get the parts for it would be?
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
Hi there, sorry to hear about your issue. I think the appropriate action will be dependent on your level of confidence and technical expertise. You can get the glass with the digitizer film for fairly cheap, but the removal and installation is tricky because it is stuck on via adhesive. If you think you can do that, Amazon, Ebay, or I can sell you one for a fair price. The other option is to get the glass, digitizer, LCD, and housing in one piece, you just swap your motherboard into it, and the part of the housing from your phone that has the serial numbers and what not on it. That would run you about 50 on Ebay. Maybe less, maybe slightly more. It is the far easier option technically speaking.
[HTC EVO 3D] theboz1419:
I had a digitizer problem on my EvO 3D and the Sprint store replaced it at the store for free.

But, after the change, Although the digitizer was better it too had the same problem in a smaller area of the screen.

So, it could be the screen and I happen to get two bad screens or it could be a problem with the phone itself.

Download from the market

Draw- Its great for seeing screen problems

Touch Test- It will show you where on the screen that has problem with multiple touch issues.
