[General Questions and Answers] gargamon:
I have a Viewsonic GTab running Flashback 10.0. I believe it is Android 3.1.

I travel a lot and find that lots of apps use the language of the country I am in as the language displayed. I assume it thinks because my IP address is in China or Thailand I want to see the local lingo when I really want to see English. I have adjusted the settings so my preferred language is English.

How can I set locale so the IP address is ignored and my desired language is shown?

I have looked extensively and found nothing that helps.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi

Since I made two updates from the Market, photoframe live wallpaper does not want to work anymore. Either I am missing something during the setup, either the updates disturbed something. It could be a conflict with other updates made.

When I try to choose a pic folder, it wont let me to. Therefore, I cannot "set up as wallpaper".

I can choose any other live wallpaper, like grass, microbes.. The problem is the same on my Samsung GSII.

Any suggestion?

Thanks

[HTC Incredible S] yannickwellens:
Hi there,

Is it as simple as just flashing a stock rom (RUU)? If this is the case, which RUU version do I need, I have an unlocked phone (Europe, Belgium).

Need to revert back to stock because I need to get it fixed under warranty.

I am aware there are some guides on the forum, but I haven't found a clear one yet...

Best Regards
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
I would try running this one:

RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.30.405.1_Radio_20 .2808.30.085AU_3805.06.03.03_M_release_199308_sign ed
[HTC Incredible S] yannickwellens:
Thanks for the link. I've tried it and it all works, yet my phone is still S-OFF.

Bootloader gives this info:

-Revolutionary-

VIVO PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-6.13.1002

RADIO-3805.06.03.03_M

eMMC-boot

I'm not sure what they check in order to find out if the warranty is voided, but I reckon they'll stumble upon this info.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Yes now that you have the ROM installed, you need to remove S-Off and Revolutionary HBOOT if you want it completely stock to return for warranty.

Search this forum for the process to remove Revolutionary.
[HTC Incredible S] yannickwellens:
I've searched the forums and came up with yet again a number of posts all describing another process. I really don't want to brick it, so if you would be so kind to give me the link that'll work on my incredible s :).
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Follow the steps 2 - 2d in this post and then re-run the2.30.405.1 RUU:

[HTC Incredible S] yannickwellens:
Alright, worked like a charm. Thanks a million, now I only need to worry that they don't see the broken void sticker on the screws inside(wanted to see if my problem was due to a faulty connector) :p.

Hopefully all goes well :)

LOLl!!!! A funny change on the usual "coolstorybro" :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sunny99:
Lol was just trying to help anyone who didn't know the basics!! as this phone will surely convert new users to android. People gotta start somewhere and haven't seen a video doing this with this handset yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
Haha I know. Its not very clear what your doing in the video though.

Do it again in a better lit environment and remove the background music
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sunny99:
Yeah agreed, I noticed that it was slightly unclear so explained it in its description aswell.

so what's download mode for?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sloppy1:
its for restoring urphone to original firmware with a program called odin,,,from samfirmware
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kamileon:
OK so good on you for making the video. But wouldn't it have been just as easy to do a quick write up on the steps in stead of filming a video....that you can't see what your doing anyway....then have to go back and edit the description of the video to list the steps? Seems a bit much to me....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sunny99:
Ha its one thing reading it but its another thing seeing it as well. If I were to just explain it I would have liked to have have screens of the process as well because the visual clarification is always nice for first time rom flashers hence the video...god didn't realise I would encounter this much heat ...hope to god this community isn't changing into a more apple orientated user base. Its intended to help not be analysed to this degree...does it misinform people, no, does it do what it states, yes. As you can see from peoples comments already that it has helped a few users and started them on their journey. That's all I want to say about this :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
What we still need this st... nice programms for the Galaxy Nexus?

I hoped it would work with fastboot like it did on the N1 and the NS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spences10:
Ah ha! Thanks dude - I have always wondered about odin

Now I can have a google and find out all about it :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Don't even start with Odin go directly for Heimdall. It's far better. Odin is a piece of junk. Just my opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spences10:
Nice one!

Thanks, will check it out :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Clancy_s:
Dunno about restore but fastboot oem unlock works to unlock the bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
So fastboot mode is vol up + vol down + power

Download mode is vol down + power

What's recovery mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Volume up would sound logical.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spences10:
You can get to recovery from fastboot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Is it the only way?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Niksko:
Can anyone confirm or deny whether the 300 kohm USB jig will boot the Galaxy Nexus into download mode?

I'm not even sure if this is a reasonable thing to expect, but I'm curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sunny99:
I had use that on my friends bricked sgs lol I dno download mode worked out of the box on this sgn
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] costlyman:
so which software should i use for flashing purposes. Eg: if i have to flash the factory file provided by google.

Are there any tutorials for a noob like me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sunny99:
There are plenty of tutorials regarding both methods, I personally use Odin but that's just because that's what I learnt first. I do not own a galaxynexus the video is of my friends. I can't imagine the flashing process all that different to the usual android device.

[Streak 5 General] roy8846:
As title says , which Rom Do You Prefer And Why???

Please answer poll....
[Streak 5 General] esco757:
Power Rom

Power Rom hands down, my device feels brand new, the speed of the device reacting to interaction is tops, I mean you would swear your cpu is 1190 plus all the time but its not, I'm @ 768 and the rom is blazing! I've tried all of them and came right back to it. It has very few bugs, the developer is very fast to come back with solutions & didn't initially attempt to bite people's heads off with threats or pre-warnings if you solely attempt to just identify problems to improve the rom. I'll do my part to ensure the dev sticks around for the long run. :D
[Streak 5 General] abbadon7:
power_rom. stable and fast
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
DSC ROM

Sent from my SuperStreak! ;-)
[Streak 5 General] Masterzer0:
DSC ROM is the most stable for me.
[Streak 5 General] FoFik85:
DSC rom ... a few days ago I tried MaxicetDroid 1.3 but after I restored DSC rom from nandroid backup, gps not working :( ... so, I am still looking for the best rom for my DS5
[Streak 5 General] smnc:
DSC for me. Stable, stable, stable.
[Streak 5 General] Kolteabhiman:
You should try it on your own
[Streak 5 General] streakOwner:
DSC 0.6b

Please follow the proper "Instruction guides on migration to DSC ROM", ie Baseband upgrading etc, and please report bugs to the proper DSC development thread, we are more than willing to help you there with your problems. It is highly advised to upgrade to 0.6b.

Thank you
[Streak 5 General] nickshertzer:
I've always loved DJ_Steve and fards work on StreakDroid. But be sure you understand that it is tweaked for PERFORMANCE and not stability.

The new DSC 0.6b is rebased off Stock 406 and is IMHO the most stable.

I haven't tried PowerRom or Maxicet in a while other than to test compatibility with themes. (and I don't speak Italian) ;)
[Streak 5 General] Kolteabhiman:
I am fan of your ICS themes man Great Work

They all are compatible with Power_rom
[Streak 5 General] lunadomain:
Stock Olleh 406

Stock Olleh 406 is the most stable. Not a single FC, reboot since I installed it a month ago.
[Streak 5 General] roy8846:
so far power rom is the best for me :)

I have a bit of strange behaviour but its smooth , no reboots / sod.

And it plays games super smooth compared to gingerstreak (tintin HD and shadowgun are 2 examples)
[Streak 5 General] kzintz:
Dsc is very stable and powerrom is too ..kind of a toss up but powerrom has stageui for those who like it. Rest are often pretty buggy with list of fc... All seem to have sleep of death after charging.. Froyo 222 still the most stable ... But gb more fun lol:D
[Streak 5 General] ivantastic:
where's the Longhorn? so far, it's the best Custom ROM for me :D
[Streak 5 General] FoFik85:
I have 2 days last version of Longhorn 2.0.1. ICS and I like it. I think that the best roms are DSC and Longhorn. I tried also MaxicetDroid and I had some little issue,but I think that rom is also very good.

The 2X developer community is awesome! I have been learning about tweaking/improving the T-Mobile G2X, a sister device to the 2X. Most of the innovations I've found have come from the 2X community and for that I'm very thankful. You guys rock.

+1 for the work you are doing guys!
[LG Optimus 2x] lotherius:
Well for one, that everyone on the G2X just assumed that if you were using a 3rd party compiled kernel on a stock rom, it was going to rebuild the dalvik cache every time. Nobody knew why. That problem had already been solved on the 2X so I simply repacked Faux123's g2x kernel with the fix, and voila, normal bootup times. But nobody in the G2X community seemed to know about that fix...

Lots of little stuff. I guess there's just not enough of us g2x guys.

Hi everybody

I have Motorola Defy, but after I plug in the usb cable to defy and PC , rsd lite 4.9, 53.1. or 5.5 doesnt recognize my device..

After plug in it shows only white led and nothing more, nothing at all...

I tried every method , but unsuccessfull...

Everytime i try tu plug in, it just shows white led, nothing more, screen is black, and PC doesnt recognize it at all...

What should I do to unbrick it ???

Pls help, I'm desperate ... Thank you

PS: I tryed every method, I searched almost everywhere
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilfatx:
When you plug it in first make sure battery full charge then load rsd lite and under settings change it to first come first serve. I had same issue and this worked.

I can't power up the phone, I can't enter boot menu or even download mode, nothing, before brick: I just plug usb into phone and usb and i could flash througt rsd whatever I want to but now I plug the usb cable into a phone and PC dooesn'r recognize my defy...

Just white led and black screen...
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilfatx:
??

Have you tried my suggestion.. I had same issue.. black screen with white lite.. you need to have full battery then plug the phone in and run rsd lite with settings on first come first serve..

if

your phone does load with a full charge then hold volume up and power button to get into the bootloader menu.. after than then plug into rsd lite..

to make things easy let us know what happens after you put a batter with full charge on it.. then we can go from there..
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djmajino:
yes , I have full battery, I set the rds lite to option firt-come-first-serve, but nothing happend

I can't get into bootloader, I can't power the phone up, I can't get into mode... Nothing :(

Still the same probem, still not solved, Any idea what could be with it ??
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhargav1991:
Check the drivers
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilfatx:
try these steps..

take phone battery out and wait few seconds..

then put batter back in and hold volume up and power button for few seconds.. let go of power button and then let go of volume up button..

your phone screen will still be black and no light will be lit up..

then connect usb cable to phone then to pc.. after that you load up RSD lite with the setting of first come first serve.. you should see a line in middle of window that says.. "connected" at this point your phone might display white light ..it sometimes doesn't but as long as rsd lite shows connected your fine.. at this point you should be able to run sbf files
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djmajino:
The defy doesn't even power up when I push the power button
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilfatx:
are you reading the steps??? clearly says that the screen might not light up or lights might not turn on..but thats ok..

before we do all this did you make sure your battery is fully charged?

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] komakaze:
so using the MacGyver hack method enabled your computer to see your phone again?

I have the same problem (flashed wrong rom, phone bricked with just a black screen, flashed the same wrong rom again hoping for a different result, still bricked, read up on what was going wrong, came back the next day and my computer (including RSD Lite) could no longer see my Moto Defy. Next step i'm either going to have to (1)borrow another Moto Defy battery that is guaranteed fully charged (i have no way to check the amount of charge in mine while my Defy is out of action) or (2)cut up a USB cable and do the MacGyver hack.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prasannavl:
1. Make sure your battery is charged.

2. Make sure you've all the latest drivers from Motorola's Website installed.

3. Make sure your RSD Lite version is atleast 4.9. I use v5 and had no problems till now.

4. Boot into bootloader mode.

5. Flash

If it doesn't work:

Try MacGyver hack.

In case you don't know what it is, search here in xda forums. You'll find it.

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejstubbs:
Option 3 is to buy a cheap standalone wall charger for the Defy battery off eBay, like this one, to keep your battery charged between attempts to flash the phone. Gotta be less risky than the McGyver hack.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dabb:
Not sure if the standalone wall charger will work, seems to me that the phone doesn't actually recognise the battery, however I have no means to test this and it's just a guess.

If it does actually detect your battery level but just can't charge it then what you listed is fine.
