I too got the notification this morning and despite "postponing" it i still received it 6 or 7 times. I tweeted Tmobile and this was their responce. . . .

seriously so you spam me with the notification that i need to update?

EDIT: I was able to download bloat freezer to my computer when i got home and transfer it to my phone to freeze the app. The app is not available under the bloat freezer name when googled in the market.

I'm on official t-mobile ROM rooted and it suggested me to update. I followed steps and the phone rebooted, but then I get to CWM-based recovery and I don't know what to do to apply the update.

Available options are: reboot system now, apply update from sdcard (doesnt work) wipe data, wipe cache partition, install zip from sdcard, backup and restore, mounts and storage, advanced, power off.

Is it possible to update?

[Q] decline ota Tmobile software update?

Since Tmobile released the update to the s2 I never updated it but now it it's making me through notifications etc. I can only postpone it a day then it pops up again and it stays there saying would I like to update now with no option to decline. I do not want to update in case I have to reflash reroot etc or I might lose my free tethering.

Anyone know what I can do?

Back it up to your sd card first before you delete it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BRKotucs:
Well, Use Root explorer to go to System / App / and delete wssyncmldm.apk. Before you delete it make sure you back it up to your sd card first in case you might need it in the future.

That should take care of the notification issue.

[TouchPad General] apbling:
Hi everyone,

Minor issue here... I am running the xron's cm7 and using VTL launcher. Whenever I reboot, some of my icons in the launcher bar at the bottom seem to "undock" and the icon is larger than the others. I simply drag it off the bar and drag it back on, and it resizes automatically and things are good to go. Anyone else experience this issue?
[TouchPad General] iamsamsamiam:
Also, if you update an app that has a shortcut in a dock its icon will also become full sized. You'll have undock and redock the icon for it to be properly sized again. I feel like it's only happened recently with either B2.1 or B2.2 and I personally don't think VLC is the problem.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hyee:
The more dim the phone gets, the worse the color reproduction is. The screen just looks grainy and unpleasant displaying colors or white. I used super dim with my Droid 2 but prefer the normal dimmest setting on the nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arpruss:
I assume this is because of the OLED screen. OLED doesn't have a backlight, so if RootDim (formerly, SuperDim) works at all (and I am kind of surprised it does) it must be turning down a virtual backlight, which basically just reduces all the color intensities, thereby reducing the available color range, and hence reducing the color resolution. That's the same thing as ScreenFilter does (except that ScreenFilter may slow down 2D rendering, while RootDim/SuperDim shouldn't).
[HTC Titan] derekpthomas:
The camera on my 1 month old HTC Titan X310e has stopped working. When I push the camera button or when I select the camera app, the usual screen pops up for a second and then the camera app immediately quits and goes to the live tile screen. I have tried soft resetting, swapping the sim, 30 second period with no battery, everything but a hard reset. A similar issue has apparently happened to HD7 owners who seem to have traced the issue to a loose camera (reconnecting the camera on the circuit board by pressing hard or by disassembly and repair) but this does not seem to be the case for me. It happened a week ago and I theorized that perhaps there was a corrupt photo already on the phone preventing the camera app from starting (since the camera app is capable of displaying photos), so I deleted the last photo I had taken and it worked. So yesterday when the camera app failed again, I ended up deleting all 25 photos to no avail. Therefore, I am starting to think that the corrupt jpg theory is flawed. Incidentally, no other app that uses the camera works. Any ideas? Anyone else having this issue? Pity to return a device if there is a fix.
[HTC Titan] TIGGAH:
I was going to suggest the HD7 fix but it looks like you have that covered. I would send it back for repair.
[HTC Titan] dbgman1122:
I had the same issue. The first couple of times the camera app would show a black screen. I rebooted it and it worked for a couple more pictures. Then the camera app would open and immediately close. I tried everything including a factory reset. No luck.

I was within 30 days so I went to the ATT store and exchanged it for another Titan. I hope this one keeps working. I like the Titan phone but I am rethinking the quality. I had my focus for over a year and it work flawlessly.
[HTC Titan] derekpthomas:
Resetting the phone to stock condition did not fix the camera issue so there must have been a hardware failure of some sort which is a surprise since the phone never received even a minor bump. I returned the Titan for a replacement and hope things work out better with this one. To me the HTC Titan together with Mango represent modern high art.
[General Questions and Answers] liranh:
I've bought these earphones for my HTC Desire:

V-MODA RRMT-E-NERO Remix Remote - Black (Inline Volume Control)

http://www.amazon.co.uk/V-MODA-RRMT-NERO-Remix-Remote/dp/B0037KLP72

As soon as they arrived I realised they're designed for Apple products only, so they would work but the controls wouldn't.

Pursuaded by a Head-Fi forum member I opened them, only to confirm what I was afraid of: The only thing working is Play/Pause.

You see, the earphones have 3 buttons: Vol-up, Vol-down and a multi-function button. The multi-function button is meant to work in the following way:

- 1 press: Play/Pause (worked on my Desire)

- 2 presses: Next song

- 3 presses: Previous song

On my HTC Desire though, when I press twice it goes to the previous song! And three times would just go to the previous song and then pause...

I was also suggested to buy this cable adapter that supposedly should fix the controls of these earphones for non-Apple products, but turned out to be absuolute rubbish:

http://www.advancedmp3players.co.uk...hones_on_different_brands_of_phone.13276.html

Does anyone have any idea how I can make my earphones' controls work with my HTC Desire?

Thanks,

[General Questions and Answers] Erythnul:
Either Headset Droid or Headset Controller will probably (hopefully ;) ) help you out.

Search for them in the market, I believe both have a free trial so you can check if it works before laying your money on the line ^_^

I personally use Headset Droid, haven't tried the other though. I had (cable broke on me, typical) a single button headset, and it allows me to assign actions for multiple button clicks or multiple button clicks ending in a long click to that one button. For you it'll allow you to assign the same multiple functions to all your buttons.

I've found that clicking interpretation is off and on though, so keep that in mind as you compare apps. I need a new headset first before I can use it again, so currently can't test anything ;)
[General Questions and Answers] liranh:
Thanks for your help, but none of those apps work.

I've tried Headset Button Controller, Headset Droid and Remote Control for Earphones, and non of them even register the clicks!

I did my first android root about a month ago - now I'm hooked on flashing and really want to learn how to customize my ROMs.

My first question - a lot of the tools seem to run in Linux. Is it a good idea to setup a dual boot on my laptop?

I've read this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1167623

Is this the right place to start if I want to pull apps off other ROMs to install in my own ROM? I've tried unzipping a rom, finding the APK, and so far, it always fails installation. So - is the thread above the right place to start pulling these APKs "the correct way"?

Came from the WinMo platform, been using Android devices for a little over a year.

Any help, pointing me in the right direction is helpful.

Again - I don't (at this time) want to learn how to MAKE a ROM, but "customize" what's already out there.

Thanks!

I am a windows guy, and most things can actually be done on windows, but somethings Linux is needed for. I use wubi, it's a dual boot, it works amazing. I primarily use windows, and you can use apktool to decompile and edit your applications, you can even set up "cygwin" and run the android kitchen through cygwin bypassing the need for Linux. but for the android utility by tommytomatoe Linux is needed as it's not windows compatible yet, I suggest using Linux to get used to it, I like windows so I like to use as much as I can without Linus, but Linux is a great operating system and wubi is the best way to run it IMO, I've tried all the VMware and running it inside windows and its just way more efficient using the dual boot and wubi is as easy as 1,2,3 to set up :-)

best of luck man, it's addicting!!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
i never used linux until about a year ago, and now i cant stand using windows for anything (although forced to use it at work)

there are limitations (online gaming etc)

but i started using it primarily for android but now it is my os of choice

i keep windows on one hd and ubuntu on another, but im pretty sure im gonna erase windows at some point and dual boot something else..maybe mint

wubi is a nice way to wade in to linux w/o doing a full install, but if you ever get into building source roms its not ideal and generally cant handle it, specifically because its partition isnt big enough

Thanks for the replies! Andy, I'm running your stock ROM right now. Love it! Pulled off all the stuff I consider bloat. Now I'm wanting to add some stuff from other ROMs that I have tried.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
That's funny, I have an old laptop with pretty modest specs. I put XP on it, and it borders on unusable, so I put Linux Mint LXDE on it and configured it to look almost exactly like Windows. It runs really well, but my wife hates it! She can't stand having to learn it's subtle differences (she's a COBOL programmer, so that might explain some things! :p)

As for the OP's question, depending on the specs of your notebook, you might be able to get away running Linux in a VM. I have VM's for Windows (for installing crap I don't want to install on my real Windows install), Linux and MacOS and they all run perfectly well.

A lot of people rave about VM Ware, I tried it and didn't like it at all. VirtualBox has always worked perfectly for me, and it's completely free. It's worth a shot, if for nothing else than testing 1- whether or not you really need to use Linux, and 2- which flavor of Linux you prefer and meets your needs.

On that second point, I used to use Ubuntu (and still have it installed on a little home file/print server), but recent versions have become resource hogs which might not play well in a VM on modest hardware. Linux Mint, which itself is a derivative of Ubuntu, is much more streamlined and light on resources, especially the LXDE (Lightweight X Desktop Environment) version. This would make it perfect for use in a VM.

Everyone has a different preference when it come to Linux.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
I switched from Ubuntu to Mint the other day, and I'm liking it so far. I bought a small external hard drive to back up important stuff. I tried the upgrade option when installing, but it seemed buggy, so I did a clean install.

The only problem I've seen is the ATI/AMD proprietary graphics driver doesn't work properly for my laptop. I just run "classic" Mint, if not the graphics will bug out. I actually prefer the classic desktop anyways so it's not a big issue for me.

I've also got the android SDK with ADB and fastboot up and running now as well.

I'm still learning linux, but I like this distro better. If anyone has any suggestions or any advice to further my learning, I would love to hear it.

i have not seen anyone add a camera Hack yet
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] DoctorQMM:
I got this off of one of the i9000 XDA forums, but didn’t bookmark so can’t relocate link right now…. adding as attachment here. I installed this on my I727-SR and it works flawlessly. For camera, you can use the volume buttons to take a picture (with ability to either press volume button and camera focuses, then takes pic… or hold the volume button until you’re ready to take pic… camera will focus and when you release volume button, shutter is activated). The Camcorder works as stock camcorder… where volume buttons are the zoom in and zoom out. To zoom-in/out with camera, use pinch-to-zoom. Everything seems to work fine and pics are excellent quality.

Here is what I did to install… I recommend copying your current SR camera.apk and camera.odex files to a safe location as additional backup in case you wish to restore.

1) You will need to be rooted and know how to use a file editor (like Root Explorer)

2) Download attached i9000 camera.apk to /sdcard/download folder

3) Using Root Explorer, navigate to /system/app and rename “Camera.apk” to “Camera.apk.SR” and “Camera.odex” to “Camera.odex.SR” (or something that helps you remember those are the stock SR camera files). You MUST rename both of these files. To do this you MUST mount as R/W within Root Explorer.

4) Using Root Explorer, COPY “Camera.apk” from /sdcard/download and paste into /system/app

5) Reboot

That should do it… you should now be able to use the volume buttons as the camera shutter for pics. To restore the stock camera files:

1) Using Root Explorer, delete the hacked “Camera.apk” in /system/app

2) Rename “Camera.apk.SR” to “Camera.apk” and “Camera.odex.SR” to “Camera.odex” in /system/app

3) Reboot.

And with the usual disclaimer, do this at your own risk, as I am not the developer of this apk or responsible for what you do/don’t do to your phone. If you follow these steps, it’s pretty safe.
