[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aceownstheworld:
Hello, I just bought the skyrocket a few weeks ago and decided I wanted to go back to Cyanogen in this phone. I previously had a Motorola Backflip and rooted it just fine. With this phone, I have been having issues. ADB gives permission denied, the one-click root .bats say all the files are read-only when it tries to move them to my sd card. Any ideas? I have been looking around this forum and others for a day or so now and have tried everything I've seen. Completely uninstalled and reinstalled SDK and USB drivers, tried several different rooting methods, but it seems to all come back to ADB permissions. Does updating to 2.3.6 cause this issue? Store guy automatically started the update for me as soon as I got the phone. :X
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pnkssbtz:
I purchased the 89529N Motorola Navigation dock and for some reason it's not recognizing my Droid Razr.

I watched several videos on youtube and it showed the Razr entering car mode as soon as placed into the dock and the sliding micro-USB plug inserted.

While my droid recognizes that it's charging, it doesn't enter Car Mode, does not launch the Motorola Car Finder app upon removal nor does it output audio via the USB-Audio Cable.

I've spent some time looking to see if other people are having this issue and the only other report I've found is a review on the product via Amazon:

amazon.com/Motorola-89525N-Vehicle-Navigation-Charger/product-reviews/B005W8NLG0/ref=cm_cr_pr_hist_1?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=0&filterBy=addOneStar

So, does anyone else with this dock have the same problem?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] budwizer:
I had the same issue with mine. It worked for the first few days then it tanked. Returned to Verizon for another unit. This one has been working for the past.

Check the RAZR forums on the Motorola support site and there are several other folks that have been experiencing the same issue.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] velopirate:
No problems at all with the car dock. I use it daily and it has always worked as advertised.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seanmcd72:
How long is the power cable the comes with the version of the car dock that comes with a power cable?

:D

If it's not super long I may just buy the cheaper version of the dock.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] thoffland:
I had the same problems with my first dock. I returned it and got another and so far so good. A couple of times it's failed to recognize the phone, but sliding out the usb and putting it back usually fixes it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seanmcd72:
I bought the car dock and so far it works perfect. I drove about 1100 miles over the holidays, and it worked perfectly the entire trip with a CHEAP generic micro USB cable and CHEAP generic car charger from monoprice.com Phone was running GPS and nav the whole time and I was impressed that it never got hot or too warm (just EVER SO SLIGHTLY warm. My old HTC Incredible would get hot as hell running GPS for several hours)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MischiefsMommy:
I did have the problem when I first received the dock. After studying the dock I realized the bottom plate can be removed. I did just that and the holder works great. Can even use it with the protection case.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] UrbanDroid:
I've also had my car dock for some time now and have been using it with a commuter series OtterBox. I've seen no problems with it, in fact while running Google navigation since the new update I've not seen any substantial overheating issues at all. Overall I'm very pleased with its operation. It is a little disconcerting to hear several of you have had problems with it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] h1p1n3:
I have not had any issues with this dock. The HD dock, yes but so far I love this navigation dock over the one my Thunderbolt and Original Moto Droid had. However, where do you people find this USB/Audio cable? I purchased the mount right from verizon and it did not come with it. Can't seem to find the cable anywhere either.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] marsonist:
h1p1n3: http://www.store.motorola.com/dp/B005NDKQ3K

It doesn't have a picture and the description makes it sound like a basic usb cable that's really expensive, but I ordered it for the same reason you are and I can assure you that it is a basic USB cable that's really expensive... with the audio dongle on the end. At $20 it's a bit of a rip-off, but it's what you need.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Frazior:
mine works like a champ, it gets used on a daily basis.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] b.o.n.s:
I just bought the car dock, is there a way to setup a alternative navigation app?

I want to use Sygic instead of Google Maps. Anyone?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Groundhound:
You can add an app of your choice on the "Music" page of the Navigation app.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] b.o.n.s:
Thanks found it! i hope Moto will update the Car Dock so you can choose your own software
[Motorola Droid RAZR] karnovaran:
I don't have my Razr yet to test this, but try the Car Home Ultra app. It's fully customizable and can be launched by the dock.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jakson0100:
I purchased a car dock its work for me fine.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Razrx:
I've had my car dock now for about a month, and it works like a charm for me. Car Home Ultra is a great app and you can add a bunch of different apps to it's home screen so you can set it up the way you want.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] klinger3:
I have 2 car docks it use to work on both now it doesn't work on either of them, ever since i re flashed using 9.8.2O-124_SPUL-18_Rogers_P005_A006_S1FF_fb_CFC.xml.

I have installed those talking santa and talking cat apps and they all have no sound. Guessing it is a compatibility defect? probably one of the reason they didnt want android market on it? man I cant wait for roms to come out and fix all this half ass stuff...
[HTC Sensation] johN_is_war:
I've been experimenting with various roms, and one of the behaviors that really has be perplexed is the automatic download of your previous apps from the market as soon as you agree to the market conditions. Some ROMs do this, while others do not automatically download any of your old apps, leaving you to manually do it over again. What determines this behavior and can I influence it?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

When you sign up to the market,I'm sure there is something at the bottom of the page which enable you to sync or not.

:)
[HTC Sensation] johN_is_war:
Is this old market, new market, or both? Because it seems to work better with the new market (but that has the cache issues).
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Sorry,I was not clear.

When you are setting up your phone on the first boot,and sign in to your Google account,there is an option to sync or not.

:)
[HTC Sensation] johN_is_war:
IIRC, you are talkinga bout the option to sync my accounts? I definately select that one, as I do get immediate gmail & contacts syncing out of the box. But it seems as though the market is a different beast (as it does not show up under any of the subheads of the accounts & sync menu).
[HTC Sensation] johN_is_war:
So I talked to a friend today, and after switching to a new ROM, I just noticed that on the android market webpage, my phone is identifying itself slightly differently than it did before. I believe that this has something to do with it, with the ROM providing some sort of additional identification which the market uses for IDing a phone.

Title pretty much says it all. Is this possible?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
so far no.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RTContent:
It is technically possible as it has been done with other devices, although not as of yet on the GNexus. I'm not really sure what is required to get this to happen either. Perhaps ask in one of the development posts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joeykrim:
Would have to bypass the internal memory write protection. This is usually fairly low level but on many HTC devices, this was the only route to obtaining root, so it has been accomplished.

On the HTC devices the lock was fairly complex in the bootloader and took a bit of reverse engineering dealing with the radio.img file.

Can't imagine it is as complicated on the galaxy nexus, but would be curious. Has the process of bypassing the bootloader been done on a previous Nxus such as the Nexus S? I wasn't aware of any but perhaps I missed it.

Wallpapers need to be 1600(horizontal) by 1280(vertical) so 1600 x 1280 to use as scrolling wallpaper.

For a static centered one screen it needs to be 800(horizontal) by 1280(vertical). so 800 x 1280. i personally just look for any pic or image that has the dimensions 2560 x 1440. (which is a 16:9 aspect ratio). that way i can crop it to fit.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexLoafTran:
Did you run the zip file which updates updates the chargemon and vold?

It's called update-rom-chargemon+vold-AlfsKernel.zip.

Download the attachment and flash it with CWM recovery. That should fix the SD card problem.

P.S. Don't forget to wipe cache and dalvik cache! which can also be found in CWM recovery. Hope that helps!

[Motorola Photon 4G] demigod3030:
Androidtether shows up twice and even when i pull the battery my computer,xbox and xoom tablet still see the androidtether ssid?
[Motorola Photon 4G] moonzbabysh:
Maybe it's saved in your devices? Like a remembered network type of thing, I'm just guessing here though
[Motorola Photon 4G] Weapon X 20:
I bet if you try to connect to it and use the internet or xbox live then it won't work. It has to be a remembered network. I had the problem of making it not visible and it still showed up for a while. But using a different Wifi Tether fixed that problem immediately.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ArchangelRenzoku:
The problem with the default Android Tether settings is that they create an AD_Hoc network. Devices that connect to an ADHoc connection will stay connected until you disconnect them manually, whether the hotspot is active or not.

If you want it to stop doing that, you need to change your AT settings to become an Infrastructure network. It's quite easy, and there is a thread about it, but here's the jist:

Change Device-Profile = Google NexusOne

Change Setup-Method = Netd (master)

Check "MSS Clamping" box

Restart AT. Now you can connect your Wii and other Nintendo devices as well as devices that require the hotspot to be in Infrastructure mode.

If that doesn't fix your problems, you'll need to make your devices forget the network then try reconnecting.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] starnostar:
I have seen a lot of posts here asking about how to disable system updates and make that annoying notification go away... So I figured I would post a complete how-to here...

Please forgive my poor syntax for now...I'm typing this on an iPad, I will update this, make it look nice and pretty, and add photos and links when I get home.

REQUIREMENTS

-ROOTED PHONE

-A KERNEL WITH A NON-STOCK RECOVERY (CWM/ROGUE/ETC..)

Disclaimer!!!!

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY BROKEN PHONES, I HAVE TESTED THIS ON MY PHONE, IT WORKED FINE, THIS HAS ALSO BEEN MY PROCEDURE FOR DISABLING UPDATES SINCE MY G1 AND ALL MY PHONES IN BETWEEN (freeze update package, clear cache)

Also, please read the post in full before doing anything!!!

---

First of all, how do we disable those pesky system updates?

I'll show you a way to do it without any paid apps, you can even do it from adb or quicksshd! (REQUIRES ROOT)

First of all, go and download "terminal emulator" from the market, or if you have adb it can be done via adb-shell or with quicksshd.

you have terminal emulator installed...now what do you do?

Fire it up and type the commands as follows (don't type in the "$" or "#", these simply mean next-command as user and root, also don't type anything in brackets as these are only explanations of what the command is doing)

$ su

[this grants terminal emulator root, accept the permissions]

# pm disable com.samsung

[this disables or "freezes" the package required for system updates]

So what does this mean?....ALL SYSTEM UPDATES WILL BE DISABLED, THIS INCLUDES PRL AND PROFILE UPDATES!! to make sure it worked, go to settings>about phone>system updates, it should shoot you back to the main settings menu.

If you need to reverse this procedure to update your PRL or Profile, type the following:

$ su

[again...grants terminal root]

# pm enable com.samsung

[this enables or "unfreezes" the package required for system updates]

---

But what about that stupid notification? The commands above wont make it go away!!!!

To make the notification go away, simply choose click on it and choose "install" and let it reboot and do its thing....it's not going to work!!!

Why does it lock up on the update, giving you that android and triangle? The default system updater requires a STOCK recovery, as long as you have a kernel with a CWM based recovery installed, it will be impossible for the update to complete

as soon as it locks up hold your power button down and reboot, it will kick you back into CWM recovery, now while here, clear your cache (as that's where OTA updates are stored), i also clear my Dalvik Cache but it may not be necessary, and reboot....now your back in your rom!!!

Finally, before your phone checks for updates again...freeze com.samsung....no more notification, and until you unfreeze com.samsung, it won't bother you about it again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
This may be a dumb question but have to ask or won't know. If I stay with my current rom and have already updated prl and profile I won't need to do that anymore unless I flash another rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Normally you won't need to do it when you flash another ROM either, but there can be situations where you need to.

PRL update isn't that useful (at least the ones Sprint gives you) as these days they are just getting rid of more 3g roaming.

Profile update can solve data login issues which arise either from messed up NVRAM or from activating another device, then re-activating your phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] starnostar:
I usually only update PRL/Profile if I have data connectivity issues, otherwise you shouldn't have to update even if you flash new roms over, usually I need a profile update about once every month and a half or so...give or take.

Just keep in mind that com.samsung is part of the rom, and flashing a new rom will render com.samsung active again

Another nifty tip....the above commands to freeze com.samsung will work for any app as long as you know the com.whatever name.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Titanium "freeze" does the same thing if you like GUI interface.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] J_Bone:
Do you need to freeze all four (at least on my phone there are four) com.samsung files?

This does seem like an easier way for those of us not familiar with emulator commands.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] starnostar:
In titanium backup, the only thing you need to freeze is "System Updates"

Im gonna spruce this guide up as soon as the disaster known as "finals week" is over.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aquaholik:
I went ahead and pm disable com.samsung BEFORE the update push to my phone. Hopefully I will never get the notification since I am happy on Calk 2.0 and EG30 baseband/modem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] syco123:
Edit:

Thanks starnostar, this works for me.

If you use Swype it may cause you a problem with adding uppercase I to "dIsable" causing command not recognized. Open any input such as google search (any input that open the keyboard will do). Touch and long hold on the input until the input method dialog pops up. Change to Samsung keyboard (ET4G). You can change back to Swype afterwards.

FYI Freeze is only available in the Pro version of Titanium (currently $6.58).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digweed4me:
Use antek file manager its free and let u freeze.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
Or.....you can just edit build.prop to say 2.3.6 & EL13.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] syco123:
12MaNy, where is that file located?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
Its in system. Just open root explorer then go to system and long press build.prop and select "open in text editor". Then change build version to 2.3.6 & EL13 wherever you see it (as applicable). Then click menu key/save. Then back out of root explorer and power down phone then power back on (hot reboot won't work). Then update profile and prl. You might get it one more time after that but that should be it.

Here's a couple images to show you what it will look like.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
It is actually in /system

Just backup the original because if you ever want to get a patch-style OTA update, you are going to need to original.

Personally if all you want to do is disable the notifications for updates the pm disable in the first post is pretty simple and won't have any negative effects on updates as you can enable it when you want them.

Alternatively you could try forcing the update to fail by installing it while having some files changed. It may ask later, but so far hasn't asked me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
Yep! Sorry....damn word prediction. Post corrected :p

....and root explorer auto saves original as .bak file
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] syco123:
Thanks guys,

My problem was Swype adding an uppercase I to "disable" causing the command "dIsable", which I didn't notice (doh!). I changed the input method to the basic keyboard temporarily, tried again and so far 12 hours later no message.

The original method was easy, quick and works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
Didn't work for me. I froze it a week ago and just started getting update notifications again today.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
I think most of the ROMs in the dev section have been updated to EL13, so just update your ROM/modem and there's no need to fiddle with freezing system updates or modify build.prop.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] syco123:
Yep, they're back for me too.

---------- Post added at 05:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:41 PM ----------

I like the stock ROM but with the bloat removed. Is there a ROM like Starburst with EL13?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ronny71:
Thank u sir...(Starnostar)

Just Froze mine (updates) with Titanium...:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yes im a noob:
ok well first off, i downloaded terminal eumulator as suggested. right off the bat, after i type su then the pm disable com.samsung, as you have listed in step 2, the screen is all blue and a longggg list of stuff--but on top of that stuff, just under where i typed pm disable com.samsung, it says "unknown command disable"

so i typed it again, same thing...

what now? getting real sick of this update message on my phone every 30 mins right on queue. either im going to have to unroot it and return it to stock, or figure out what else is going wrong.

thanks in advance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Smoked600:

Well I would go that route. Just that this is my replacement I just got and the GPS actually works great. It always finds my location. I don't want to jinx it and update or change roms .

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beezar:
Ok, I didn't really read this whole thread, because I don't have this problem, but the way I got rid of notifications of the pending update was by just trying to update while being rooted on a custom ROM.

The update would fail (yellow triangle, no action), and then I'd just turn off the phone then turn it back on again. Clear my cache, and no more notifications.

Pretty easy. Am I missing something here? :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
That disables the notification temporarily.

In about a week, the phone will check again, use bandwidth and battery downloading the OTA update in the background, and then put the notification back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beezar:
Ok, gotcha. The EK02 OTA did try to update again a week later on me when that was rolled out. I repeated what I did originally (tried to install it and having it fail), then they never sent another notification after that. At least it didn't try to do it a third time, cause that would be a pain.
