Hi All. I have been using HTC windows mobile phones for years. Just come from a HD2 running Artemis ROM.

I have never used Android before, but i must say, i am loving it so far. Phone is super fast, and super smooth.

I have bought a couple of apps from the Android market. If i root my phone, and then install a custom ROM, how do i get my paid for apps back. There is no install file like i used to have with winmo.

Also, which app do you guys recommend for backing up my contacts?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] Joshhedge:
Hey and welcome! I do believe if you enable automatic syncing, google should back up all of your contacts for you. Otherwise, when rooting and flashing a new ROM, which wipes all of your data, you should make a back up using Titanium Back up which you can download from the market :)

[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Welcome to Android, I still have my HD2 but I used Android on it more than Windows Mobile. I did check out a lot of the custom Win Mo ROMs though, they are awesome.

Here is a little advice about a ROM based off the stock or a stock Sensation XE. I am using Revolution HD myself, great daily driver ROM. Sorry but I have been lazy and have not changed it in my sig yet. Anyway go to Settings/Privacy and make sure you have a check mark by the following.

Backup my settings

Automatic restore

Also go to Settings/ Accounts & sync and select your gmail account and make sure all the things you want to sync with google have a check mark beside them.

This should have all important info backed up including apps free and paid. You just link your gmail to your phone again during set up after booting your new ROM. You can skip set up and just sign into the market with your gmail account. Or link your gmail acount by entering it into the e-mail app. It is all about google ;)

Edit: Also always make a Nandroid with whatever custom recovery you use before you flash any new ROM. I am old school too and recommend you do everything manually in recovery such as clearing your cache, sytem, data, and delvick cache. This also includes making the backup and flashing the ROM.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Another alternative is that your apps that you downloaded/purchased will always be there at market.android.com under the gmail account you bought them under so you can install them from there.
[HTC Sensation] Savage-wp:
Thanks for the answers guys. It's actually pretty simple then. Everything is linked to your gmail account. So you never actually loose anything.

Pretty cool.

Is it worth it to root and go to a custom ROM, how much faster is the phone?
[HTC Sensation] naimmkassim:
Oh..how i miss my HD2 :) had to sell it due to upgrade mine.

Yup, agree everything is linked to your gmail and also some other stuff mention here already.

Its depend on you either you want to root or not. From reading in this forum most of the community is really great in sharing their tought & mostly to developers for their ROM. Root? Why not, after all, its the reason we have the xda forum ;)
[HTC Sensation] arzbhatia:
Welcome to the community :) You're going to love it here! I recommend to root the phone and extend it's capabilities by flashing custom ROMS. The speed actually increases! :)

That is a release available only for "groupie", that is, some members that paid to have a special status there.

[HTC Desire S] shrike011:
Yes, same is here.
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Guys it was written here and also on GALNET's site. If you have bootloops with the ICS builds (the stable 2.11.26), you should first wipe (data/cache) and flash one of the nightlies or the weekly ICS build (1.11.9) and only after that flash the stable 2.11.26 WITHOUT wipe over it. That way you won't get bootloops
[HTC Desire S] shrike011:
Ok, lets try again then ;)

Tnx

Everything went fine now, but after flashing, radio is completely dead (newes stock radio)

[Kindle Fire General] huskerdu25:
Hi guys,

Am about to purchase a KF tomorrow, but I wanted to go over some things quickly.

I know to use this in Canada, such as amazon prime (which I'm not a member of anyway) I have to have a VPN from the states. If I don't use a VPN from the states, am I still able to use the Kindle, or will it stop me at the registration page? If I have to use a VPN from the US, how hard is it to setup? I share my router with my family, would that cause issues?

Assuming I can avoid the VPN route, I would like to root my Kindle to have access to android marketplace. Once I route it, will I be able to access android marketplace instantly, even if I don't have an american VPN?

And finally, am I able to transfer stuff to kindle, such as books from mediafire that were free, and mp3's without having to go through amazon? Do they have their "desktop manager" for the KF or something?

Sorry for all the questions, been trying to do some research and just wanted clarification,

Thanks, any help/advice is appreciated! :)
[Kindle Fire General] llcooljayce:
Canadian Kindle Fire user here.

To answer your questions, you can definitely register the Kindle Fire easily out of the box with Amazon. As far as I know, they do not care what IP you come from during the registration process. Once you register, your KF will show up on your Amazon.com page under Manage Your Kindle. So simply put, registration is a breeze.

The KF does not have the ability to connect to a VPN (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1376742) but I have read that a lot of people have been successful with Unblock US (http://unblock-us.com/). As I understand it, they use DNS masking rather than having traffic route through a VPN. I haven't tried it yet but they do have a free trial so there's no risk. I am holding out for a VPN solution because I have already paid for a VPN service. Assuming Unblock Us works, you will have access to Amazon Prime (theoretically) and Netflix US. I do know that Netflix US does check for a US address on your credit card before allowing you to register ... I assume Amazon Prime does the same but your first month is a free trial so there is no need to verify a US address on a credit card as you don't enter it when registering. I would assume that when you go to renew, you will have to find a work around in order to allow Amazon to let you register/pay for Amazon Prime.

I tried sending a PDF to my KF yesterday using the provided email address xxxxx@kindle.com but I have not received it. Not sure why that is ... I have a 2 other Kindles so I know it's not a 'I'm an idiot and don't know how to use the Kindle interface' ... but you can definitely use a USB cable to transfer your content over. Alternatively, you could easily set up a Dropbox account and install the Dropbox apk onto the KF and get content that way.

Let me know if you have any other questions. Everyone in Canada is stumbling their way through this so remember the novel that I wrote for you and pay it forward when you can help a forum member. Cheers

Canadian Kindle

I bought mine a few weeks ago, rooted it, installed Google apps, and basically made it an Android tablet. it works like a charm, GMail, Maps, Market, Calander (synced), Go Launcher, and Titanium BU.

It took some reading (XDA), ADB, and some learning but it works; I still can't buy software from Amazon but I can buy it from Google Market. I can however buy books from Amazon and read them on my Kindle App. Most of the time I download the app onto my Razr, and then send the apk file to my Kindle using Gmail.

All in all I am very happy with it.
[Kindle Fire General] huskerdu25:
Bought the kindle fire, rooted it, love it so far!

The only issue I'm having is that I downloaded the android marketplace app, after rooting it, but it simply says "you must add an account to use this device..." to which I say yes, and then it boots me out back to the home screen.

I tried looking up videos on how to install android marketplace (vender apk, root explorer all installed) but still no luck.

I also grabbed the Go Ex Launcher, but can't figure how to access my videos folder.

Great device though, so glad I picked one up
[Kindle Fire General] llcooljayce:
Try following the steps here:

http://www.kindlefirewire.com/2011/11/17/how-to-install-android-market-on-kindle-fire/

This worked like a charm and assuming you used Super1Click, it should be very easy for you as well.

As far as videos go, I use MX Video and it automatically discovers videos on my SD partition. I load them into my KF using a USB cable.

You will be able to use the KF like any other Android tablet to read email, internet browsing, running android applications and play games. However, without rooting, you have to side install applications. This method is not friendly. To be able to install applications to install from Google Ply Store, you need to root the KF. There are some simple guides available in this XDA forum that are good for you to read to explore deeply the KF as a wonderfully android tablet. Here is a link to one of many simple guides:

Froyo or Gingerbread ? For GB, head over to dev section, look for Andro-ID thread and search for Enhanced Recovery (XXKPF). Or maybe you could flash a full FW using Odin

Full flash with one package or 4 files ?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] distan7:
After your phone was repaired, did you already have XXKPK installed (by Samsung guys) or you just flashed it yourself when you got home ?

Anyway it's not about one package or multi-files; it's about how many files are actually going to be flashed.

Open your TASS.OPS (just use notepad or any text editor) and you'll see a list. These are the complete name of files that Odin should flash to internal system partition.

Now each time you want to flash firmware using Odin, extract all the archives if you have multi-package (even .tar.md5 should be extracted using WinRAR or any app you choose). Count how many files you have. Find out what's missing from total of 10 files in TASS.OPS. Chances are your firmware file already has recovery.img in it. If so, then proceed with flashing. If not, find other FW that has it.

Btw, XXKPK is for eastern europe, so in case you need other FW, make sure you use from similar region.

Maybe yes, maybe not. We don't know, unfortunately.

When you flash recovery.img (either from full flash or just a single recovery mod), Odin will flash it into recovery partition. So, in theory, your existing recovery partition will be overwritten by recovery.img

Btw, it's past midnight here, so I'm off, hope you work it out right.
