Oh well since you're using some 3rd party thing, maybe there might be a setting in it. As of right now I'm on ics and I can't sync facebook contacts, so I can't really remember exactly.

Does it not allow you to edit the name?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wifesabitch:
I tried all the settings and did a little trial and error with no success.

You can edit the name, doesn't do anything, Facebook name still shows up.

Probably easier if I just find another contacts program.

My Tab is replacing some tasks that I used to do on my PC, that includes Email, Games - am Not a PC Gamer - , and Net surfing. The experience is swift and I'm used to Touch screens since the days of HP iPAQ (1999) I guess.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikel.canovas:
Hi, I'm a senior in highschool. The academy that I'm in requires that we do a senior project over winter break that is relevant to our desired major in college. Since I'm highly interested in Android development and want to do computer engineering in college, I thought I would try to answer either 1) what truly goes on when you flash a custom rom. or 2) what makes android different than linux (something along the lines of that).

So now I would love to get support from any developers out there with any insight, interview possibility, if you know someone who would be of great help, or suggestions for my project.

Thanks in advance!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
Quite frankly, I'm not qualified to help you with this project, as much as I wish I could. I would seriously reach out to Phoenix-lead. I was part of Team Phoenix and the man (in my opinion) is HIGHLY knowledgeable, and if he doesn't have the info, I am sure he could point you in the right direction
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlluminatedOne:
Replied to your PM.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikel.canovas:
Who's the head of team phoenix? Nunhugger?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
I dont think either of those would make a good project, I'm sorry.

1. When you flash a custom ROM you're replacing files on the operating system. This requires a level of access higher than standard user permssions.. Super-User permsisions. You must have unrestricted access to the partiton. From there, you simply copy files into a folder and run a script to set things up.. Symlinking folders and files..

it is more interesting what happens during download mode on UART. This is still not enough to make a project out of..

2. Android is not different from Linux. Linux is a set of drivers.. A kernel. It is a foundation that allows other software to run on top of it, be that a shell or a GUI. This is the reason we have so many distributions of Linux out there, including Android. Android is based on the Linux Mobile kernel.

If I may suggest some projects... they are sure to be interesting because not everyone has the hardware required.

1. UART Diagnostics and debugging. Your Captivate has an entire Operating System called the SBL. It loads up quietly without any notice by a typical user. This OS is very powerful and contains the ability to load software and other things onto your device. It also has the ability to destroy the device.

You will need:

A UART device, a 619kohm resistor betwen USB pins 4 and 5, and A USB plug which you can disassemble and wire into the UART port see here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=925034

Or, you can hook UART up directly inside the back cover of the device.. see here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1235219

2. ADK. ADK allows interaction of an Android device with the physical world. It takes some programming but it's not that hard to pick up. See here for more: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1371750

3. Another interesting one would be to show how to disable CarrierIQ from a Captivate. See here: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/carrier-iq-creeps-out-everyone/

I somewhat feel projects should be something which can go on forever and not just be a simple answer. I've suggested some options which you could publish your results with pride and impress quite a few people. If you somehow damage your firmware in the SBL prompt, I'll resurrect your device with UnBrickable Mod for free but you pay shipping. Just thought I'd say that just in case.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikel.canovas:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shansmi:
So where are we for a non-odin root for 2.3.6? It took only hours after this device was released for one click rooting proc to be posted.

Why is there no custom ROM counter reset proc? The counter was modified with a bootloader change on the GS II. Unfortunately this device was released with that same fix but I kind of expected someone to "fix" that...

:confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kkiran:
If you don't mind me asking - what are the negative effects of a custom binary download counter?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shansmi:
cheesy for samsung to prove you have voided your warranty...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shansmi:
hmmmm. no interest or what?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sh4dow1:
I'm intrested in knowing now to reset the counter I got mine at 1 and it's bugging me like crazzy cause of the warranty lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shansmi:
oh we know what needs to be done. Someone has to crack the low level bootloader code onROMs. Over there that have a non-hardened ROM and a hardened ROM. It is simply a matter of flashing the non-hardened bootloader then using a jig. Over here we have no non-hardened ROM to extract the bootloader code from. That said is why the code itself has to be cracked and compared to see how they shut it down...

If I knew how to do any of that, I would have done it and posted a solution. I know there are those here on XDA that do, it is just a matter of peeking their interest.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Anfeldt24:
where is it....

I wonder if the jig for the S II will do the same for the skyrocket since they are similar.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shansmi:
If we had a non-hardened bootloader, yes I suspect it would. As for now, no it will not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
i dont really care about warranty, but i have the bestbuy buyback option.....do you think this will void that??

or do they only care if the phone is back to stock??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shansmi:
i bet if they check you would be sol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
bummer, one more thing....i heard that they had a flash counter reset counter. is this true.

so they will know if you reset the counter
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Anfeldt24:
I am almost sure you will need a hardware piece like a jig to reset the counter.

When mine arrives next week I will let you know.

[LG Thrill 4G] colbur87:
I have made a small utility that will install CWR on the LG thrill. Untested on the optimus 3D....

Thanks to designgears for outlining the original procedure in this tread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1257588

WARNING:

Your warranty is now void.

I take no responsibility for bricked, dead, or unresponsive phones. If you are uncomfortable using this tool, then DON'T. Furthermore, I created this utility for my phone, and decided to share it with the community.

This utility was coded in c# in a windows 7 environment. I can only speak to this working on windows 7. If it works on XP, great; but I only tested it on my windows 7 system. Confirmed working in XP by: gentzleon

Before you begin:

Phone must be rooted!!! Look here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1251663

Must have an SD card in the phone.(This is used for the storage of the recovery backup)

Drivers MUST be installed! ( Direct Link: Here)

Instructions:

1). Plug phone into computer via USB cable.

2). Turn on USB Debugging mode

3). Launch 1click_CRW with admin privilages (right click->run as Administrator)

4). Enjoy

Notice

Because people have different computer speeds and the fact I wrote this in 10 minutes, there is a pause between each command. Just click 'ok' when the popup messages says waiting.....Its fool proof.

ALSO: I did not put any error checking in it because I did not feel the need. I created this for fun and decided to share it.

If you see an error from ADB like no devices found, make sure your drivers are installed and restart the computer.
[LG Thrill 4G] latinohot:

This installed cwr just fine but when i try to make a backup or install a new rom it says error cannot mount sd card does anyone know y this would happen
[LG Thrill 4G] malickie:
Freaking sweet. I was hoping to find something easier to do this with that having to go through the other method to flash GB Roms. That is what this is for right?
[LG Thrill 4G] gentzleon:
All those having problems installing, make sure all your permissions to /data are checked-(all 9) if not you will not be able to install recovery...

To set permissions you must;

Have root explorer or the free app ES file explorer.

---Navigate to /data and press and hold

---Select properties

---you will see at the bottome where it says permissions an option to change

--- Select change and make sure all are checked.,

---click out, reboot phone and it should all work..

There have been instances where the folder will change back permissions or not save the new permissions so just perform it again... Enjoy the 1 click CWM Now If this could be included in the script it will make it fool proof.....
[LG Thrill 4G] colbur87:
I will add this when I get home from work.
[LG Thrill 4G] mauriciorubio:
Anyone?
[LG Thrill 4G] colbur87:
Can you manualy mount the sd card in Clock work by going to mounts and storage...and mount sd card? ALso, i know this is a stupid question, but do you have an sd card in your phone?
[LG Thrill 4G] mauriciorubio:
No I can't manually mount it and I dont have an external sd card do I need one? I just switched phones from the samsung captivate and did not need one to mount sd card Is it different for the thrill
[LG Thrill 4G] gentzleon:
Thanks....this for sure is the easiest way to install CWR
[LG Thrill 4G] colbur87:
I think I may change this app and create it in a windows form...I will have a button that follows the same procedure as it does now, and a second button to fix permissions..However, should I have it apply the permission change to the entire /data? Seems unsafe to me, but I'm paranoid.

Also, work has been long, and my wife and I are in the final process of buying a new house. So that is why I haven't been on much.

Yes, this a long w/ actually rooting the phone will allow you to install custom ROMS.

[LG Thrill 4G] cyb3runkn0wn:

[LG Thrill 4G] wayno140:

[LG Thrill 4G] drastic00:
P920 and P925 are literally the same device. The only difference is the Thrill has been AT&T branded and includes their bloatware. Inside my Thrill battery cover it reads "P920" in small print.

ok thank. all work fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Wired_In:
When installing a custom ROM do you have to have a SD card? I just got the phone and want to go to the de-bloated stock version, but I don't have a micro SD card.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
No there is an internal 16gb sd card.... in cwm recovery you can flaah roms from the internal or external card
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] niezek:
Its always good to have one to store roms and other files you don't want accidentally deleted from flashing roms. But technically I don't think you need one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Wired_In:
Just confirmed - you don't need a seperate sd card.

So does anyone have purchased the Irenew bracelet?

It claims.giving strength /balance via some sort of new technology and just placed and order and im.starting to think it is fake but not sure if anyone have tried it leaving feedback would be great.

Oh and @mods really sorry if wrong section but i had no clue where to post this.. if you feel its not in the appropriate forums please do move it instead of locking thanks.

yes... it works very well....

I actually bought a few extra bracelets from a monk in china

He granted it special power from an ancient well that is believed to hold the mystical power of the bear...

Anyone that wears it will be enchanted bear strenght X3

It just so happens that I can't wear more then one (as bear strenght x6 is dangerous to mere mortals) so I have one to sell if you are interested.

BUT... bear strenght x3 is not cheap..

If you want I can sell it to you.

*no guarantee that bracelet has bear strenght x3... also no guarantee that bracelet will last the shipping trip*
