[Windows Phone 7 General] gd761:
Reasons why Windows over Android.

1. When you have a storage card in the phone, you can explore all the folders just like on your Home PC. On an Android phone, it's hard to find anything on the storage card. If there was a program that would let you search just as if you were on a Windows Phone, then I might think differently.

2. Just the feel of the OS is a lot different than on any Windows Phone. Windows Phones are closely to being an extension of your Home Windows PC.

3. With all of the Apps that have been out on All of the different Market Places, Android has had Thousands of Apps pulled from the Android Market because of Viruses, Worms, Trogen Horses, Key Loggers, & other reasons. On the Windows Market Place, there either have been none or so little that have been removed, that there has not been so much as a whisper about it. Microsoft has kept a very tight reign on it's Quality Control and that's why there either has been none or extremely little problems with the Apps on the Windows Market place.

There are probably quite a few more reasons why, but these are the reasons that get to me the most.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JVH3:
Your information is not accurate.

Windows Phone does not support Storage Cards or the exploration of them.

Windows Phone looks nothing like Windows.

I think you have confused Windows Phone and Windows Mobile.

There is a big difference. This section is related to Windows Phone 7. The OS with Live Tiles.

This thread should be closed.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
the failed to boot is obvious, as cfroot isnt meant for cm. also cfroot and current cm7 kernel that most people use is compiled by the same man, ketut. and i'm pretty sure what he did with cfroot also already incorporated in the cm kernel which he also compiled himself.

CF-root => Cyanogen mod

Hello everybody,

There are a few threads that discuss this question, but they all draw a different conclusion.

This one for instance : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1256707 (or if the link is broken, search this: [Q] CF-root to ClockworkMod (for cyanogenmod), and non-responsive launcher).

In the thread above they claim that repeating the installation of the .zip file twice, will install CM7 on the device. However, in this very thread , CF-root and CM7 are said to be incompatible. As i want to install CM7 on my device (Samsung Galaxy S2, i know it's different from the ace but the rooting principles are the same), i'd like to know for sure:

Is there a way to install CM7 on a CF-rooted device?

Many thanks :)

EDIT: Question already answered in the linked thread. Thx anyway :)
[HTC Desire S] .:ArMinO:.:
Hello.

So. I found out, that on official Desire S Sense 3.0 aren't working custom skins from the Market for example. Only working are default skins in HTC or in HTC Hub. Custom skins are not workable. After installation are not showed in the Menu of Skins.

I'm telling this because I'm not the only one who has this problem after installation of HTC Sense 3.0 Update.

Any suggestions?
[HTC Desire S] Musicmad:
No help, but I have this too
[HTC Desire S] lavier:

[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
Unfortunately it is currently not possible to skin certain areas (lock screen, HTC widgets, bottom buttons) of Android 2.3.5 for Sense 3.0. All the skins on the market will only work on Android 2.3.3 and 2.3.4. Annoying I know. :(

Until the m10 tools are updated to allow skinners to mod these areas, I'm afraid were are stuck with the stock skins, or going back to a 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 Sense ROMs.

Not much help if you are unrooted on stock. Sorry.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chris95X8:
Really? I couldn't enter xRecovery too when I was on GDX v018, v019 and v020.

Just install another CWM ROM if you can enter CWM.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tohno:
but iwas able to use xrecovery just a few days / hours ago ..and now i cant ..is there a prolbem with my xrecovery? i cant enter CWM also and ccwm (installed version ) don't have x8 option in it's list T.T ...without xrecovery i cant backup my phone anymore!! is there any alternative or solution? just wondering ...is there a diff between xrecovery and cwm?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
tohno ... since you wrote in another thread that you installed ROM Manager ...

ROM MANAGER IS NOT MEANT FOR THE XPERIA X8!

This program is ONLY for genuine CyanogenMod ROMs on a selected range of devices... so... that should actually answer your question why you can't select the X8 in the list of devices.

As for being unable to enter xRecovery ...

a) GingerDX comes with Dual-Recovery by default. This means that BOTH, xRecovery and ClockworkMod recovery, are already installed. You DO NOT need to manually install any of them ... if you do, or did, you will only wreck the installed ones.

b) xRecovery does NOT work on the LinuxDX kernel, and will most likely also not work on all the other custom kernels as well as they don't have xRecovery built into the kernel but only CWM.

Conclusion: If you're on GingerDX and already messed around with the recoveries ... re-flash GingerDX and full-wipe.

If you're on Stock 2.1.1.A.0.0 or 2.1.1.C.0.0 use Flashtool to inject xRecovery into the ROM.

EDIT: Another reason why xRecovery may not work... any chance you messed with busybox?

If you updated the default busybox version that ships with GingerDX - or the original xRecovery installation - you may face problems!
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tohno:
confused a little...but i was able to enter recovery many times before when i was still using GDX

abou a) well i need xrecovery to install GDX in the 1st place...so it's a must for me to install xrecovery

b) i never messed with the kernel!

so i guess i have to reflash then...but how to or what is reflash?? is it means i have to do the xrecovery process all over again?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
Depends on what you did ...

If you somehow messed around with the files of the recoveries in your current GingerDX (or whatever else) ROM installation you better re-flash GingerDX (or whatever ROM you're currently using) to undo the changes you may have done to the OS. This means: reboot into CWM and simply re-flash update-GingerDX-v020.zip

i cant even enter CMM!! i click reboot to CWM but then it just reboots like normal ...

I'm sure this is a stupid noob question, but:

Can I build from source on a Chromebook without running Ubuntu in a box? If so, can anyone point me in the direction of a resource for that? I'm only asking because the wifi only Chromebooks are pretty cheap - cheaper than I am likely to find a macbook. :confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
You are very unlikely to find your answer here. What exactly are you wanting to do? Install a different OS on it?
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
Sounds like he wants to build Android from source code which is usually done it a Linux system. I'm not sure the answer, but it seems like you should be able to. Unless Chrome is not as powerful since it is browser based system.
[HTC EVO 3D] DoctorComrade:
I don't know if this is correct but....

I would assume that you can't because chromebooks are not powerful at all. There's almost nothing that eye popping about the specs of chromebooks. On top of that, there isn't much you can do with a chromebook because it is a browser-based operating system. If you really want to build from source just buy a cheap DIY computer from Newegg or something and install Linux on it.
[HTC EVO 3D] ifly4vamerica:
You can't do what you want right out of the box on a chromebook. But you can open em up and flip a switch which will allow you to load linux or ubuntu on them. Only caveat is that the one I have is an alpha tester model they gave to us (the company I work for had a deal with google) so jot sure if that I the case wih the newest ones.

[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
As long as you're able to get to a unix/linux based terminal/shell, you *should* be able to compile the Android OS.

Now there are a few caveats to the process, I recall hearing a 64 bit instead of a 32 bit system was required for gingerbread and above, plus there might be some other operating system dependencies. There might also be a RAM requirement.

Also, it can take an hour or two on many modern computer builds. This might take a very long time on a laptop or stripped down laptop such as a chromebook.

I've only compiled inside Ubuntu as that is the recommended OS by Google in their directions. I've compiled using Ubuntu as main booting OS and with Ubuntu being booted inside a VM on a Windows Host.

Best place to start is with Google's official directions for compiling AOSP: http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html

I found this link by searching google.com using the terms: android complie source code

The requirements and notes Google's mentions in their directions:

"Note: The source download is approximately 6GB in size. You will need 25GB free to complete a single build, and up to 80GB (or more) for a full set of builds."

"The Android build is routinely tested in house on recent versions of Ubuntu LTS (10.04), but most distributions should have the required build tools available. Reports of successes or failures on other distributions are welcome.

Note: It is also possible to build Android in a virtual machine. If you are running Linux in a virtual machine, you will need at least 16GB of RAM/swap and 30GB or more of disk space in order to build the Android tree"

Hope that helps! Good luck!
[HTC EVO 3D] austontatious:
Thanks for the help! So it looks like I could *maybe* do the build on a chromebook, but regardless I wouldn't want to. Correct?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
Assuming you were able to get everything setup on the Chromebook, at bare minimum it would take a few hours, if not much much longer to complete the compile based on Chromebook hardware and Google expectations as outlined in my previous post.

An alternative, would be to ssh into a build box from the chromebook and compile using this method. This would probably be an approach I would be willing to take. Just throwing out another idea as there are a few reasonable alternatives.

In my experience, compiling AOSP is one of the more hardware intensive tasks I perform on my desktop .. if not the most intensive.

Hope that helps!
