[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zervic:
Okay well I went ahead and tried S2E...great BUT, i lost all of my app data (i.e. angry birds was reset to a fresh install). Every time I reboot the phone, I have to re-setup my theme...i.e. ADW resets to normal...basically a fresh install of CM7...any guidance on that? Btw, it did free up a lot of space when I went to S2E...
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zervic:
Anybody?

[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
S2E and DT a2sd are going to screw each other up, so if you are going to install S2E, you really need to completely uninstall DT first.

If you don't mind setting stuff up again, you should probably just do a clean install.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zervic:
Hmm... Even with the import function? After I do that it tells me to reinstall CM7 so as to uninstall dt a2sd... Is that not a reliable way to uninstall? I'd like to use S2E but really, really don't want to start fresh... *unless there is someway to link my restored apps (mybackup root - mainly for backing up the data) to the market * i'm pretty sure there's a way with some app but I don't remember what it's called.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lsusparky621:
Here is what i would try. Back up all apps + data with Titanium Backup and all system settings with MyBackupRoot. Do a full wipe/clean install of CM7. Install S2E and select to move apps and dalvik-cache to sd-ext through S2E. Reboot. Install Titanium Backup and MyBackupRoot from the market. Use Titanium to reinstall all apps + data. Reboot. Use MyBackupRoot to recover backed up system settings. Reboot. Done.

Just to make sure you know, S2E can only be used with CM7 and an ext-3 partition.

Does anyone know the name of the clock widget shown in this video?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=CNiTBB2veA0#t=42s
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Futur Innovations:
I'm pretty sure that it is either Beautiful Widgets or the other more popular Fancy Widgets with a cubical clock skin applied. This video must be old because the soft buttons at the bottom aren't the same as the soft buttons now shown on the device. I can't wait for this phone!!! It seems like we've been waiting FOREVER for it to finally release. Lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tung_meister:
Ye I've arrived at the same conclusion now I'm just trying to Identify the skin. It does appear to be an older build but it does have one feature I wish that was present in the final build in that is had landscape mode enabled on the launcher.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Futur Innovations:
That's one thing that I really haven't seen in all the video reviews. How does the launcher look when its in landscape?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tung_meister:
It doesn't as the functionality isn't present in the final build for some reason, rather annoying really as I was hoping to be able to use the phone fully in landscape should I want to.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Futur Innovations:
Yea. You think that it would because if this os is supposed to be on both tablets and phones, why isn't there landscape on the phone? Ill check it out when I get my hands on it. Lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilbur-force:
Yep.... no landscape is going to be a problem on my docked transformer :eek:

why do you need odin flashable?

if you want odin flash stock rom and flash zip update..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] zane05:
coz i could not flash it through cwm even after followin everythin written correctly{tried different modems too}.and the only roms which work are the stock roms and MUSH69ROM i found which i could flash through odin
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] madman:
you can specify what type of errors you get while flashing roms through cwm so anyone can help you out for that

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] zane05:

send to the shop (where did you buy the phone if phone still in warranty )

it just happened to me on yesterday (friday)

and waiting for next wednesday..:p
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justin tsang:
what the meaning by IMO?

if i take it to service..how much money?(around)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nelikp:
IMO (in my opinion)

not sure for the price

but u can try SEUS first

or flash to stock rom (i mean go back to stock rom instead custom rom)

for me I tried, but still "please insert sim card"

so I have no choice..;)

So this is my friends phone, he received a notification that there was a newer android version available and if he wanted to update. I had advised him not to update this this way (OTA?), but he couldn't resist.

Here is something to repair your bootloader after a FOTA update and phone iIn the package you have flash tool and the files you need.

Just unzip to a folder and then use flash tools.

The needed files are in the right folders.

After this you should have your phone fully back for a fresh rom install.

Use wotanserver to flash a full custom rom of your choice.

http://www.mediafire.com/?h2dwrz18mujx765

There´s not much to explain, this .sin and ftf files repair the damage bootloader and the trim area.

If you ´re unable to start phone after a fota update with unlocked bootloader.

Just plug the phone and connect it pressing back button in your xperia neo and press flash on the flashtool. And voila you have you phone live again.

2 [How-to] Repair Damaged Bootloader + Trim Area [Red Led][Unknown Device]

by Alejandrissimo

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1254409

Sometimes we can brick our devices by a bad unlock, flashing process, or simply bad luck.

The phone doesn't turn on and there is a Red Led Of Death when pressing power button. Even with a GREEN led when we plug the phone with back key pressed the computer detect the phone as "unknown device" so there is no chance to get fixed by Flashtool or SEUS/PC Companion.

Well this problem normally means that the bootloader is broken or damaged. So, in order to fix it we need to write a new SEMCboot and after this we were able to flash a full and fresh firmware with flashtool and unbrick our Xperia.

This process like unlocking process requires SETool dongle/box and a paperclip to make a testpoint to put the phone in flash mode and be able to write the SEMCBoot.

I can help to anyone with a bricked Xperia Arc/Play/Neo/Pro just make send me a PM.

Thanx mate!

[Tutorial] Fix FOTA bricked (unlocked bootloader) Phones

This will fix your unlocked Phones which got bricked through OTA update and are dead now!

Please download this package:

http://www.multiupload.com/Q103V01CV1

Let it extract to a destination of your choice.

After that run Flashtool.exe.

Now hit the button FLASH and select the package which is included.

Follow the steps and connect your phone in flashmode. This is the same mode Pc Companion and SEUS uses to flash your phone to newer firmare (Indicated by green LED), if you got BLUE LED you are in the wrong mode!

Flashtool will now detect your phone and start the repair.

After all is done your phone should be up and running again.

ADVICE:

PLEASE DO NOT ACCEPT ANY OTA'S ! If you receive a OTA message just decline, if you accept it you will end with a brick AGAIN! So please do NOT accept them until SonyEricsson provides a OTA solution for unlocked Bootloaders!

Best Regards

Team FreeXperia

Bricked my xperia neo

Hi friend,

Can u pls send me another link to download following flash tool? The link given in the post does not download the tool so pls give me another link. I have bricked my phone while flashing it with a custom rom and now phone got stuck on Sony logo. When I connect it to the PC while pressing the back button, the green light turns on and the PC does not recognize the phone. Pls send me the link or suggest any other method of fixing it. Would be highly thankful to you for this help.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] usmansaeed:
Thanks my friend for the interest. I was trying to install Jelly Dream rom. But I have fixed my phone. Actually the problem was with Windows 8, I tried the flash tool with Windows 7 & it did work & my phone is fully functional now. Thanks again for ur interest.

Can u pls tell me what is the most suitable & fast rom for this phone? I also want to integrate sd card to internal memory and use a portion of sd card as ram, is this possible?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Vatsal:
Every rom is suitable and fast depending on user as to what he s happy with.. There can be no suggestions on this.

Integrate sd card to internal memory yes it is possible. Partition ur sd card to ur desired size in ext2/3/4 or fat32 format and use cronmods script. Google it. You'll find easily.

Integrate portion of sd card to ram yes thats possible too. Its known as swap partition. Use ram expander app from playstore. Keep in mind virtual ram is 10x slower than actual ram. Google it for more info.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chriscole:
Figure this may be useful as the stock music player installed on the Galaxy Nexus is all setup ready for the cloud based goodness of Google Music, but it's a service supposedly only available in the US at the moment.

To work around that, try the following (worked for me, YMMV):

Download the appropriate version of Tor Browser bundle for your platform from:

https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en

Install, load up the Vidalia control panel and click "Settings"

Navigate to the advanced section, click "Edit current torrc"

Paste the following into the bottom of the torrc file:

ExcludeNodes {be},{pl},{ca},{za},{vn},{uz},{ua},{tw},{tr},{th},{sk},{sg},{se},{sd},{sa},{ru},{ro},{pt},{ph},{pa},{nz},{np},{no},{my},{mx},{md},{lv},{lu},{kr},{jp},{it},{ir},{il},{ie},{id},{hr},{hk},{gr},{gi},{gb},{fi},{es},{ee},{dk},{cz},{cy},{cr},{co},{cn},{cl},{ci},{ch},{by},{br},{bg},{au},{at},{ar},{aq},{ao},{ae},{nl},{de},{fr}

(This will force Tor to use a US exit node)

Save the settings, restart Tor.

In the Tor tunneled Firefox that's now running, visit:

http://music.google.com

If you get an error about it only being available in the US, go back to the Tor Vidalia control panel and click the "Use a new identity" button (to pick a new exit node) and refresh the page. Repeat until you get a Google music login box.

Try signing in with your existing Google account - this worked fine for me but there seem to be conflicting reports about whether it works in all cases for non-US accounts.

If not, you may have to setup a new GMail account solely for Google Music use. Be sure to create the account using the Tor tunneled Firefox so that Google think you're in the US when you sign up.

Once you've logged in to Google Music once and accepted the T&Cs (maybe grab the dire Busta Rhymes freebie track to check its all working) you can ditch Tor - Google Music will quite happily now let you access and upload music from the UK.

Load up the Music Player, link the newly Google Music enabled account to it, enjoy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paedigut:
thanks :)

streaming on my device is quite nice, but i have to wait until the song is fully loaded to start it (in Music-app)... little bit annoying
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case0:
A much easier way to do it is just use a proxy website (like those ones to get around school/work firewalls). The majority are based in the US.

I used the first link that came up on a Google search to sign up for Google Music back around the time it launched. Less hassle than downloading software etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shodney:
The only real problem is that you can't access the store, which means you can't get any of the free music or buy anything.

You still get the syncing and upload abilities though, which is quite nice. I just need to sort out my music collection now before I upload it :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
I know that's probably a bit stupid but I can't install the app from the market. It downloads correctly but when it wants to install the app it says it isn't signed properly or so. Is this because it isn't developed for the desire? I would like to use it until my nexus arrives.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cja1972:
You need to uninstall any previous versions and also make sure you clear data under application settings
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Get your self the market enabler and set it to use verzion us market settings. Uninstall current version then download from market. I did this earlier today and you get the very latest version of the app.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] switchblade88:
The 'error at line x' is something to do with Windows 7 (possibly x64) editing the torrc file. Had the same issue...

Easiest fix is to go to the Tor folder/data/tor/ then open 'torrc' with Notepad manually. Edit the file by hand, save and restart Tor and it'll accept the changes fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scooby359:
I used TunnelBear on my PC to trick Google into thinking I Was in the USA, then accessed Google Music over the internet and registered for the service.

Then on my phone, I downloaded the Music APK from this XDA page and installed it on my phone.

Works fine for me for playing music on my phone and music off my computer which has been uploaded to the cloud.

Play still won't give you access to the music section though as it's not licensed still for UK use.

I bought the skyrocket. Right after buying the S2. SO...KEEP THE S2! I took the skyrocket back after two days and got the S2 back. I felt is was to thick,heavy,screen lagged, and the screen wasn't as sharp as s2. So in my opinion the s2 is a much better phone.

I don't have any experience with the vivid

This is the first phone that I haven't thought to myself, "crap, I should have gotten this one instead" or "I'm going to upgrade when such and such phone comes out". And I am one of those people who like to always have the latest and greatest, but I plan on keeping this phone for a long time.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] madquack:
Try it out and see, there's nothing else you can do. See which one you like, if you get better speeds with the Vivid then get that otherwise keep the SGSII. Read up as much as you can on both devices, see which interface you prefer more, what feels better in your hand and overall performance, only you can determine that.

No one else on these boards can make up your mind for you except yourself, these threads make me scratch my head.. :rolleyes:

All I can say is try each out before you make a decision.
