[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rubeel:
Everytime i update a ROM, i loose my settings of different pages in my phone ,i have reinstall the widgets (not the app). Is there a better way to do these. I mean, i want my facebook widget to be on a page and Pulse news and bbc on one page, I have it set right now but if i update to the new version of the ROM i am using i will have to recreate all that.

Can anyone guide on this matter ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
I have yet to find a good way to do this, other than using a third-party launcher so that it can be restored using "restore missing apps and data" in TiBu.

Also some third-party launchers have their own backup and restore functions.

There's no clean way to do this for built-in launchers, especially since many ROMs change the launcher to modded variants.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] phazepiracy:
As entropy said. Find a launcher with save & restore option. Otherwise Titanium backup.

I would be interested too if you find something to solve this without an app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nyydynasty:
even with a 3rd party launcher, i dont think widgets can be restored.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moustro:
This is correct.I kmow Launcher pro will save the placement of the widget but it will show as "problem loading widget" so essentially its useless in that aspect.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] joeybear23:
If you use the widgets that are specific for the launcher you are using, the restore will work. However, if you use a widget from another application, the launcher does not know where to find the app. I am not sure why this happens, it may be because a unique ID is assigned an app upon install, and perhaps that ID is used when setting a widget. When you re-install an app (or all of them in the case of a TiBu restore) the apps get new IDs assigned to them... That is just a guess.

Regardless, every launcher has this issue with app widgets. Somehow they get around it with their own proprietary widgets.

(Update Fixed go to second page!!)

Well, this could be worse but here goes...

So multitouch keyboard sound were bugging me so i figured change them over to the click sound for wp7 instead, so i used root explorer backed up kb sounds

from system/media/ui and replaced them with wp7 kb sounds....

all went right except i noticed the the KeypresStandard sound wasnt working right (i would click and wouldnt hear anything, space and enter worked!) so i figured thats not good let me just replace all the sounds with my backup sound files, and same thing no sound just for Keypresstandard!!

Here is the odd thing if i hit the some keys real fast i get the keypresstandard to make a noise every now n then!!??

Is there a cache file i need to clear? i even did a factory restore (knowing that wouldnt do anything) but i figured why not :(

any ideas, I should of made a backup with cwm but i wasnt sure if i restored if i would brick this thing... so i never bothered with cwn at all sigh......
[Motorola Atrix 2] svtfmook:
don't restore with cwm, cannot guarantee that it will work at this point.

double check the names of the default sounds and the new sounds, make sure they are named the same and in the same format (mp3, ogg, whatever)
[Motorola Atrix 2] iB4STiD:
There in .ogg, its just the KeypressStandard.ogg that seems messed up, other sound files for KB work fine, hmm anyone have keypressStandard.ogg? Maybe it got corrupted some how? im gonna try to make m own see if i can get it to work...

and for cwm, ya i figured not to even use it till i know it was safe... btw thanks for the reply!!
[Motorola Atrix 2] iB4STiD:
So... (update!)

For the life of me i cant fix the back up KeypressStandard.ogg, Ive never seen anything like this b4....

So what i did was take KBspace.ogg rename it to KeypressStandard.ogg and it works (not the ideal fix) but atleast its a sound..

I'll just to have to wait till a sbf is out to reflash the damn thing to stock, its not a big deal but ocd is such that i want it perfectly back to stock :: shrugs ::

Just pisses me off somtin so simple is giving me such a hard time, oh well, i can wait sorta, kinda, maybe :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] kleeman7:
Just turn of the sound.
[Motorola Atrix 2] iB4STiD:
Ya that would be to simple, why ignore the problem when u could fix it :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] cornflaku:
This may sound stupid, but did you check case on the filenames?
[Motorola Atrix 2] dolph8886:
maybe filesize or permissions?
[Motorola Atrix 2] koriflame:
Would the cache/dalvik cache mess with the sounds maybe?
[Motorola Atrix 2] frycook15:
Here's my original maybe it will work for u
[Motorola Atrix 2] iB4STiD:
Thanks for sending the file,

Still Not working, I checked the permissions and they match to the other KB sound file, tried to wipe cache under the default recovery, still wont work.

The odd thing like i said b4 if i rename the KeypressSpace to KeypressStandard the sound file works without a problem.

Thanks again guys for the replies, I havent tried to clear davlik, I havent put cwm on yet so,any other free app on the market clear davlik ?

Thanks again All
[Motorola Atrix 2] iB4STiD:
FIXED!!!!!

Update! Fixed the problem :)

First i want to thank you guys for taking the time to try and help me out!!!!

This is how i fixed it, i was sitting around thinking about how in the past i had to play around with Motorola android phones for my g/f, she had the droid and many more on verizon, and i remember the fun i had modding here phones (aka i was the one stuck rooting/flashing anything for her) :)

Then it hit me , I used root explorer with her devices and i remembered how i had problems with.apk's i would modifiy and zipalign/resign then copy over to /system

So what i had to do was just use adb instead of root explorer. but enuff of my rambling this is how you do it!

1.Move file you want to push to sdcard of your phone

2 fire up adb

at prompt type

3.adb shell

4.su

5 mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

6 cat /sdcard/KeypressStandard.ogg > /system/media/audio/ui/KeypressStandard.ogg

7 chmod 755 /system/media/audio/ui/KeypressStandard.ogg

8 reboot

and thats it ....

This is a lesson for us all, Use an iPhone for any amount of time and slowly but surely all past knowledge of android/adb go out the window and u try the easier way first! :) either that or im just getting old (I do sometimes forget my own name) but hey i rather blame apple :)

thanks again all

Hi, I have a question with the roms for the htc Evo View, I can install a rom for Flyer?

I do not need the data connection, just regular wifi.

reading other reviews I've seen say the only difference between the flyer and the Evo are the drivers for the data connection, hence my question arises

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dchibro:
View development has been almost non-existent it seems. Probably because most people opted for the Flyer. But with all the View firesales over the past few weeks, I think there will be a lot more View owners. Whether that translates into more development is unknown, but it may. I just bought a View on the cheap and would be happy to see some more development, but I'm pretty content with having a nice tablet at a great price.

Guys, I have my normal charger at home which works fine. Here at work I have a fairly new (but cheap) USB cable. At work the charge never goes up, it stays at the same percentage all day. It charged my Optimus 3D fine.

If I swap it for a colleagues USB cable (came with his Windows Phone) it charges fine (same USB port or USB ac adapter).

Is there a certain type of Micro USB cable I should be looking for that's not stupidly priced? (in the UK)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
Coming from an Iphone I didn't have any spare micro USB cables so I went to a computer store and bought 3 store brand (cheap) microUSB cables and they all work fine.

The only thing to take note of is some wall charges are seen by the phone as "USB" and not "AC Charger" and thus will only pull in 500mah which is pretty slow. If you install battery monitor widget by 3C it will tell you the amperage coming in and if the phone sees your connection as USB or AC.

I discovered my 1amp apple USB brick does not charge higher than 500mah only my samsung one does that came with the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmace:
yeah, but if I use the same USB port or the same AC plug I don't understand why 1 cable will charge fine, the other gives just enough to keep it at the same percentage all day?

Well, i already have CWM on my phone and everything, but how do i flash this baby in without having to wipe everything?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] babymatteo:
You have to wipe or you will get stuck in endless bootloop.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] unclespoon:
Also, use titanium backup to backup and restore all your apps - the market will automatically restore everything for you either way, so you're not losing much other than some game saves or things that weren't on your sdcard...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] raycaster3:
Or..... backup your custom rom (if not cm7)in rom manager or cwm, then flash the update (after full wipage), boot up, let it sit 10 min. Get to recovery do advanced restore and restore the data only from your backup, reboot and you have all your data and the new update.

Hi!

I managed to get my other Android phone working as a Bluetooth mouse. Now, my tp(32gb) has gps. however, I would like to use Navigon. The problem that I'm facing : Navigon needs an imei for verification. Any ideas how I to solve this problem?

Thanks for ur suggestions
[TouchPad General] Puenos:
well.. first of all.. afaik only 64GB-Touchpad is 4g-capable and therefore should have also GPS included..

I too have a 32GB-Touchpad.. but there is no GPS..therefore previous Facebook-versions FC'ed due to location problems...

why navigon needs the IMEI idk either.. interesting approach though..

but what if you try to tether you'r GPS-signal from your phone to your TP?

maybe if you use your phone's gps you could use the IMEI from your phone?

I suppose you're running Android?
[TouchPad General] eegman:
I know you want Navigon, but I have Sygic running on my touchpad (running on Android). I have a bluetooth gps connected with a program Bluetooth Gps Provider. I just have the states I want pre-downloaded to the TP, and the thing works great.

If you were referring to Web-os, then I don't know.
[TouchPad General] mtb-defy:
I use Android on my tp. On my mb525 I'm using Navigon and I like it. From this phone I'm tethering the GPS. I will give sygic a try... Might take a while with about 100Kb/s and 2.6gb

But emulating an imei for the tp would be interesting. Any ideas how this can be realized?
[TouchPad General] Puenos:
afaik emulating imei is illegal?
[TouchPad General] Moshe5368:
there was an app for the nook color which generated a fake IMEI from the serial number of the device in order to allow some apps to function. To my knowledge, duplicating an IMEI is illegal but generating a fake one should work.

It would be great to still get updates on the whole process. It's a sad thing when developers can't develop publicly, but I understand completely why they closed that thread.

I guess CM9 is always waiting in the wings, but having an AOSP version is great too. Hopefully they'll still be willing to release it to the public.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 2747343:
i have a feeling LG is going to give us ICS faster than the developers of cm9/the devs porting the ICS rom.. the reason is because cyanogenmod wont release ics without camera working and i doubt they have it working now or are even working on it anymore..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
We need LG to release ICS, or more precisely we need nVidia to give us ICS drivers. Without those ICS won't run any better than gingerbread and you'd be better off just skinning GB.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] loganmc10:
They have hardware acceleration working so I don't know why you think this is the case, I'm sure we'll have CM9 for the G2X before we have an official update from LG

[General Questions and Answers] paulckruger:
I have a Cruz reader and want to hack it to get rid of unwanted apps and perhaps increase it's functionality. I have tried the method to upload a pre-configured ROM update via a zip file but always get the exclamation error. Given the apparent unreliability of that method when starting with the stock reader I am seeking alternatives.

Since the device uses a standard micro SD card for its internal storage I was wondering:

Is there is a way I can remove and save the stock SD card and create a new custom ROM/SD card on my desktop then plug that into the reader.

Any help is appreciated.

I started to post this in Hacking section because I thought a custom ROM constituted a hack but when I checked that I was asking a question the board informed be this is not hacking but a question. :)

Grettings to all!

I am working on my own ROM and I faced a problem.

I use osKitchen Zero 1.33.5 and Windows 6.5 build 21690.

When I try to start the camera, the inscription "Camera" appears for a second at the top bar and then disappears... Of course, the camera doesn't start.

Tried to launch it through camera.exe and camerarunner.exe - result is the same.

In the kitchen all checkboxes at SYS and OEM Packages are checked. At the EXT Packages only Camera is checked.
[Windows Mobile] ultrashot:
you're missing mhub and dshow
[Windows Mobile] Axel_Stone:
As revealed, not only them. Checked all the EXT Packages, now the camera works (btw thanks for the idea, where to search a solution for my problem).

Now I'll try to found out the package, which you didn't mention...
[Windows Mobile] Axel_Stone:
Found at last!

Concurrence Mgr - that's it.

Now the camera works without mHub and DShow, only Camera and Concurrence packages.

By the way, can you explain what the mHub DShow need for? Or is there any topic, where all the EXT packages are described?
[Windows Mobile] ultrashot:
There is no any description of packages.

DShow is a directshow filter (needed for audio/video decoding and encoding)

mHub contains some decoders

Hi, I have checked around xda and have not found the answer to my question so my apologies if I missed it during my search. I have a Rogers branded R800a Xperia Play. I understand that carrier locked plays can not have the bootloader unlocked. However, I have found someone who can carrier unlock my phone for me (Use it on foreign networks). If I get my phone carrier unlocked would that allow me to unlock the bootloader myself or do I have to go through someone like Alejandrissimo to properly unlock the bootloader? Thank you!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
Only factory unlocked plays can use the official unlock method, if you paid to get your device sim unlocked, you would still have to pay for a remote bootloader unlock.

By the way, when you pay for a bootloader unlock, it also sim unlocks the device, so paying for a sim unlock first is a waste of money. :p

I've got a handful of Amazon - free app of the Day

But some of the apps I own through Amazon are showing up as " .10 cent apps " in Google's special offer week

Is there any benefit ( like auto updating ) that I should consider grabbing the same app from < G-market > to swap out of the Amazon version. .10 cents is pretty close to free, so the cost isn't an issue.

I know it's the same app, I'm curious if there is any reason why I might want to pick up the Google version like --it may be easier to manage using the Google version - or some other reason I hadn't thought of.

Thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UmbraeSoulsbane:
I would say there is very little reason to buy an app you already own. If you got it free on Amazon then buying it at Google will help support the developer who probably got nothing for the app you got on Amazon, but buying it for 10 cents might not be that much better.

Also, a dev may update the Android Market app more than the Amazon app, but this is really dependent on the developers process and may sometimes got the other way.

I would check the versions on your apps, if the Android Market has a never version and you are wanting to spend money on it then it might be worth it; However, I think there is also an issue between Android Market and Amazon App Store where your device may get confused and won't install or update, so it may not be worth the trouble.

Not seeing your point
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UmbraeSoulsbane:
Amazon uses an Amazon specific DRM, and apps with not work if the Amazon App Store is not installed. My understanding is Amazon will sometime limit the number of devices a app can be used on.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/03/07/amazon-app-stores-drm-to-be-more-restrictive-than-googles/

The Android Market is less restrictive; although I have not tested its limits.

I personally do not and will not use the Amazon store because I don't trust Amazon nor like their approach to Android in general.
