[Dell Venue] SwordLaker:
What is the content of your update.pkg? What is your current version and build number?

As far as I can guess, it wouldn't work
[Dell Venue] tuan.dsnq:
Hi, could you please give more information?

Which version are you using now?

Which version of update.pkg that you intend to use for your upgrade?

Version in update.pkg should be greater or equal than the version you're using. Have you confirmed this?

I asked the last question since I met it before: I tried to flash update.pkg of 319 from a 325 -> error. In this case, I had to flash 319's recovery.img first, then proceeded with the upgrade.

Hope this helps!

Is MIUI by cobrato immune from this?

or should i switch to aosp?

thanks

Do Sony (Ericsson) phones even have CIQ? I don't think so.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychem:
yup its a software problem in android not a hardware issue, doesnt matter who the manufacturer is.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychem:
ok i cant see any app by the name of IQRD on the phone so is it all clear? the article mentions it is integrated in the kernel and only aosp will remedy it.

can someone confirm if x10 has this app?

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skynet77:
Well why don't you try and see for yourself :)

download this app from this link from authors thread, and see if it finds CIQ on your phone...

didn't find anything on my phone except Google CheckIn but that's not unusual, using Wolf's v6 custom rom

TrevE created a video demonstrating the tracking ability of Carrier IQ. Very scary stuff - reads your SMS and copies to Carrier IQ before you even see it. Also completely bypasses https and reads supposedly secure browsing information and notes your location even if you opted not to share your location.

Video here: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/11/30/smartphone_spying_app/

View it while you can. It will probably be taken down with a C&D from Carrier IQ soon. Can't have people knowing what they're up to. We've known about CIQ for a while now and many of the Devs are automatically removing it from their ROMs.
[EVO 4G General] dzee206:
just posted the vid on my fb to help get the word around. everyone should post it to where ever they can, tell friends, family,anybody. just get the word out about this BS!

[EVO 4G General] megabiteg:
They will always claim that its for "market research" and that in the end the "benefits" from this technology are greater that anything we can imagine and understand all together, but what I will never understand is why they have to do this in the shadow? why can't they ask for permission of the user to compile all this information?

I'm sure that if they ask for permission they will have a handful of people willing to participate. I think that a petition should be taken to the FCC to force carriers / manufactures in to disabling this once and for all, at least as long as the phone is purchased in the the US (thats where their jurisdiction is).
[EVO 4G General] devnulldroid:
Rootkit is a rootkit they can call it what they want. I knew there was deception in this video by the CEO. They really need to be "sonified" and have a few rootkits thrown their way and if phone makers and carriers knew of this BS.. they do as well.

Class actions only help lawyers get rich, State legal by the Attorney Generals do nothing for the consumer either and the FCC wont have a clue as they are still in the "turn the phone dial with your finger to make a call" era.
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Carrier iq is highly invasive and is not solely for "market research". No one needs to read your private txt messages for "market research" and some forms of.carrier iq on VZW have the ability to record phone calls. It is an invasion of privacy and plainly a virus, I will only run roms with iq fully stripped I don't need some "analyst" reading my txts between me and my old lady. And I don't care about any of the "benefits" they could ever imagine from it I care about my privacy.

The Evo 3D has a more in-depth thread on this. It's TrevE's original post on the subject.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1247108

Because the topic spans many phones (over 160,000,000 by CIQ's own count) and different carriers, it's hard to keep track of the various forums and threads discussing this. But here's some encouraging news. The CIQ melt-down has made the major league media.

Yea!

Is anyone having problem downloading flash player from market? Ive tried and it says device incompatible.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lilmoe20087:
They have stopped flash on mobile phones I think who ever had flash player installed before adobe made the announcement that they are discontinuing flash player are still able to use it because now they are focusing on.HTML5.

T-Mobile G2X

CyanogenMod Stable Version

[T-Mobile LG G2x] SefEXE:
That doesn't sound right. I know they stopped, but I think that just meant they aren't developing for future versions of Android. They still support the existing version of flash and even still provide updates to security.

I will uninstall and try to reinstall to see if I have a problem as well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
It should still work. They aren't discontinuing the flash player. They just stopped development on it... which means it reached a point where it's stable.

They ARE moving toward HTML5, but they aren't just tossing the towel at flash. It'll be around, even in ICS. They said they would still work on compatibility and support, but they just won't be developing new features for it.

If it says it isn't compatible, then that is a market issue I would assume. Try clearing your market cache from Settings>Applications.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
If you've having that particular error, you need to uninstall any version of flash that you have currently installed (even if it is preloaded). Then, reboot your phone, and try the market again and it should work.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lilmoe20087:
Oh I don't know because this is not the only person that's having the same issues that's why I seen alot of people tell me that they are having issues with flash player. I haven't had a problem with my flash player yet mine still works n very stable.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
It is a protected app. That means if your rom fingerprint has not been approved by Google (i.e., official rom by carrier or manufacturer that is a member of the Open Handset Alliance) you cannot download it from the Android Market (will show as not compatible with your device). This is an issue with many apps if in the Dev Console on the Market they have checked the "Protected App" box. Change the rom description and fingerprint in the build.prop to the ones in the build.prop of the latest official rom for your device. If a G2X change these two lines and then you can download flash and install it.

Flash 11.1

I've downloaded Flash version 11.1.102.59 and it shows up in my Application information. But every time I've needed flash it says I need to download Flash and when I try it states the same as the OP "Device not Compatible" I haven't figured out how to fix the problem either. Any help will be greatly appreciated I assure you. Thanks,
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
If you're having this problem then you need to remove the preloaded flash player. The file for the preloaded Flash is /system/app/LibFlashPlayer.apk ... you can remove it manually or use titanium backup or similar to remove it. Then reboot and you should be able to install flash from the market.

EDIT:... somehow I feel like I'm repeating myself.
[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
Hello,

I added (synced) Skype, GMail and LinkedIn contacts with my phone book and I see that sometime Android is triggering the linked contacts suggestion and propose to link (for instance) a Skype contact with a phone book contact.

Is it possible to trigger this process by hand? I hate to define these links every time by hand.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
This triggers when you add an account and it syncs for the first time. No other way to do it.

I only added links to my contacts once. Then, i backed them up to google. Now, when i restore contacts (to a Sense ROM) they automatically link, no notification links required.
[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
Thank you for this information.

I asked this, because actually it shouldn't be necessary to link contacts more than once, even if I had this necessity. I can explain why.

I have:

1) 1 account on Funambol (my main phone book)

2) 2 gmail accounts

3) 1 LinkedIn account

4) 2 Twitter accounts

5) 1 Skype account

All of these accounts are set to be synced with my phone.

What happened: when I added the Skype Account, I decided to sync all contacts with my device. So I found all my Skype contacts in the phone book. Then, the contact connections suggestion has been triggered after a non precise period of time and I linked the contacts as usual. Then I removed a Skype contact from my PC. After doing that, I went into Settings->Account&Sync->Skype->Sync contacts but the contact I removed on my PC didn't go away from my phone book on the device.

I also noticed that the sync process was too much short (~0,1 seconds), and it couldn't be gone all OK as actually was.

So I decided to go into Skype settings and change the sync options to Sync with existing contacts; then the contact I removed using the PC has gone away from the phone too, and then I reset the sync setting to Sync all (first option).

This caused all my Skype contacts to be unlinked from my phone book (Funambol) contacts and the link contact suggestion has been triggered again after some time. Despite that, I had to re link many of my Skype contact by hand and you can understand that it is not so happy.

I didn't understand where the contact connections are stored. You say google account, but I'm not convinced of that. At least in my case. I've seen that after linking contacts, the funambol client had something to sync with the server but I don't know what it did exactly. By the way, I didn't understand why, the phone numbers I've put into the funambol account are not going to be stored also in the gmail account, where the contacts are linked together.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
So here goes:

Had been running UnNamed 1.3.1 with Entropy's DD 11/23 (conservative gov. and stock clocking - setCPU not installed) and CB650 Wolf's ICS Theme for about 3 days with zero issues. Monday night I decided I wanted to try out Jivy's ICScreweD theme - so I did the following:

a) cleared cache and dalvik, and re-flashed UnNamed 1.3.1 to revert the Wolf ICS theme to stock UnNamed. Rebooted to CWM

b) re-flashed Entropy's DD 11/23 kernel. Rebooted, and then replaced lights.so to re-activate BLN using root explorer. Rebooted to CWM again.

c) flashed Jivy's ICScreweD theme.

At that point, all appeared normal.

Yesterday, was in a meeting most of the day with no service in the building, so phone was in airplane mode most of the day. After the meeting, battery life seemed slightly poor, but I chalked this up to the first day after the flash.

When I plugged the phone into the stock charger cord / wall wart at the end of the day, phone wouldn't charge. Tried a couple different cords, no change. Powered phone down, plugged in while powered off - phone powered back up fully on it's own, and appeared to take a charge.

Took phone off charger this morning, indicating full charge. Used it for about 20 minutes before leaving the house, appeared to be under normal battery drain (at 98% when I left) and drove to work. Got to work (about an hour later), phone would not wake up - sleep of death type behavior. 10 second long press on power got it to re-boot - and it came up at 41% battery. Did a battery pull, and came back up to 46% on reboot. plugged into PC with non-OEM cable to charge - phone not indicating that it was taking a charge. Tried 3 different USB ports on the PC, no change and no charging. Powered phone off and plugged into PC - phone automatically powered back up fully, and now appears to be taking a charge.

I'm quite certain the power-up when plugged in is a known issue on this ROM (at least I think I saw a couple people post about this) and I can't confirm this wasn't it's behavior prior to switching themes - normally I don't shut down to charge - only did this time because of the no charging while plugging in while powered up.

The only thing I can think of that might have triggered this wonky behavior is that I did the whole round of reflash/kernel/theme flashing with the device plugged into the wall wart charger. Coming from an Aria, this was an absolute no-no (and was frequently repeated as such in the forums over there) but I hadn't seen anything about it being a problem on these forums, nor in my very brief perusal of the Cappy forums for my wife's prior phone.

Anyone think the plugged in while flashing thing is the problem? Any other thoughts?

Thanks,

DD
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Couple of troubleshooting things I would try if it was mine. If you have a nandroid backup taken before a b c above, try that first, and next try going back to straight stock. I know it's a pain, but less than a malfunctioning phone. Certainly hope it's not a hardware issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
Thanks for the input Creepyncrawly, much appreciated.

Sadly I was too lazy to make a nandroid right before this most recent flash, but I do have one from a couple weeks ago with S8.2, which I made before switching over to UnNamed. That setup had no issues, just switched because I wanted to try UnNamed. So that is an option for me. As of now I'm going to try to get through the rest of today at least as-is, to see if the behavior continues to be consistent or if it is more intermittent in nature...

As far as going back to straight stock, I think I would be inclined to work my way back there if the nandroid doesn't sort out the issue; i.e. go to UnNamed 1.3.1 with Entropy DD 11/23 first, if that doesn't fix it, then go to UnNamed 1.3.1 with it's built in DD 11/13 kernel, then if that doesn't fix it I'd go to stock.

I am certainly no expert when it comes to flashing these devices, but it seems to me that if artifacts are getting left behind from one ROM to the next through the flashing process and causing problems occasionally, it shouldn't much matter whether I go straight back to stock or progress back there in stages...somebody whack me over the head if I'm wrong here....:)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
And continued weirdness;

Upon unplugging from PC after charging was complete just now, device indicated it was still connected to USB. Reboot got rid of the notification indicator that it was still plugged in, and lost 2% battery (battery loss probably normal...)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
Final update:

Tried full wipes and installs of several ROMs, as well as a clean install of Unnamed 1.3.1 followed by Entropy's 12/01 Kernel update. Strange behavior continued to get stranger. By Friday the phone was randomly indicating switching into and out of dock mode at very frequent (approx 1 sec. cycle) intervals at random times. Still typically able to get it to charge by powering off then plugging in.

Called ATT and got them to approve a warranty replacement after some useless over the phone troubleshooting.

Initial attempts to reboot into download mode to flash back to complete stock for the warranty return via the hold volume up/down and plug into USB failed - would only result in a normal boot - got the device into download mode courtesy of the extended power menu (thanks for including DL mode GTG!), and reflashed stock unrooted firmware.

After flashing to complete stock, download mode via volume buttons/usb plugging continued to fail, and the device continued to randomly enter/leave dock mode.

I can only believe it is actually a hardware failure issue - but I do have a couple of logcats of when the device was doing the in/out of dock mode, if anyone is interested in seeing them...

Replacement should be here today or tomorrow...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
That behavior screams "bad USB port" to me - yeah I think you had a hardware failure there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moustro:
My phone seems to think there is a USB plugged in constantly. Started about two days ago, my phone does not sleep at all.

I called att and they are going to warranty exchange it. Just waiting for my jig.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
Moustro -

your battery graph is quite similar to what mine looked like the day I took the logcats, though mine was more square-wave rather than saw-tooth looking. dramatic ups and downs were there tho.

Frequently had mine in my pocket during the craziness, so I'm not sure really how frequently it would wake then re-sleep with the cycling docked status thing...

Wonder if there is a bad batch of USB ports in these things out there. Mine was purchased on launch day. Any dangers to posting S/N info online when not attached to IMEI?

FWIW, my respiffied warranty replacement seems to be of very slightly better build quality (buttons feel slightly smoother in operation, mfg. tolerances around the back plate are a hair tighter (using the backplate from the original device as all they sent me for the replacement was the chassis - no back or battery).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moustro:
That's why I posted here. Thank you for the feedback. My phone does not go into deep sleep at all. The green charging line is there constantly. Reflashed a couple nandroids, I went as far as to go back to stock w/o root and reformatted my internal sdcard as well. Nothing helped.

Hi..

I am having problems with my phone.. I tried to upgrade the ROM to gingerbread 2.3 and I followed the instructions in this forum in upgrading the phone. However, when I was in the xrecovery mode to continue with the update, and searched and installed gingerbread from SD it says "successful" then rebooted the phone. but after Reboot m phone is stucked in the "Sony Ericsson" text, not even getting through the sony ericsson logo.. :(

I tried the repair from PC Companion but the download is not going through for the update software, it always say that there is a problem with my internet connection but my internet connection is fine, I am able to connect to my emails and social networking sites..
