[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kaiyen:
Hey all,

So our work activesync server is a bit out of whack, and _only_ the AOSP e-mail client will work with it. So far, the only ROM I've found for the E4GT with AOSP e-mail is the "EPIC AOSP Experience" one. That's a good ROM, but I lose several features (4G, some icons are wrong, etc). It's smooth, but I would love to try Blazer, etc.

However, Blazer and other ROMS with the AOSP e-mail.zip don't seem to actually flash the e-mail app. Nothing changes from Blazer stock to Blazer + AOSP e-mail.

So. Does anyone

1) know of a ROM with AOSP e-mail?

2) know how to get the .zip to work on Blazer? I asked in the dev thread but no joy.

thanks.

Ok , so every time I flash a rom I calibrate my battery. But I noticed the battery last the longest after the first charge of calibrating. When I calibrate, I kill the battery, pull the battery, put it back in and wipe bat stats. I then leave my phone to charge overnight (6hrs). At that point, turn the phone on and off, charge it again while off until it shows 100% (usually about another 10-15min). The battery last about 2 days with moderate use. I wait for the battery to die before I charge it again. But this time, I charge it the normal way. I don't go the full 6hrs, I just wait until it shows 100% (usually 2-3hrs max) and unplug the charger. But on this charge, the phone only last about a day. So my question is, what could be making this difference in battery life? Any chance these phones really need over night charging (6hrs) to get maximum battery life?

btw, I'm running Valhalla final.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] QUIETLYloud:
From my understanding battery life takes a few days to settle in especially after flashing a new ROM
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dantemp:
I would think that letting it soak in would see battery life only get better not get worse and then start improving again. I'm gonna do more overnight charging and compare it to just charging to 100% and unplugging the charger. And see if it truly makes a difference.

You have my curiosity piqued. Let us know what you find.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] QUIETLYloud:
Here's what has happened with mines after new ROM flash (Valhalla o/c 1.256), and calibration first charge(right after calibration) with phone on = 25+ hours, second charge off to full unplugged power on = 9+ hours, third charge phone on =17+ hours, on fourth charge phone on =3 hours with 85% left...

From my understanding the inc2 and majority of today's "smartphones" can only access up to 32gb of external memory. I have yet to see a 64gb card installed in any phone.

I could be absolutely wrong in my assumption.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zax10:
Did a quick research and found out that anything above 32gb would be classified as a SDXC card which would not be read by current smartphones.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
And formatting it ruins the card
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] BradenFontaine:
just out of curiosity, why would you need so much?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] x Jumpman23 x:
plenty of music (32gb alone), movies, videos etc.... I have Google Music, but I would also like the option of not having to stream online to listen to my music.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] AliceBToklas:
Just installed the 64GB microSDXC card from SanDisk and it works just fine. Formatted the card in the phone and copied all my stuff (music, pictures, etc.) over. Only problem I've run into was Astro FC, but a quick reinstall fixed that. Sure is nice to have a room for more ROM backups now.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zax10:
Is it reading your full amount of memory also can screenshot the memory usage screen I would love to see it say 64
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] AliceBToklas:
Yeah, should have included that before. Like others I've seen I get >59GB reported capacity.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
That's awesome. Lemme know how it goes in performance.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zax10:
That is surprising to see it read. Like Tyler said keep us up to date on performance.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] AliceBToklas:
Can't say I've noticed any change in performance vs the 32GB microSDHC I had before. Cost $160 through Amazon.

The ROM is CoreDroid - quite nice.

[HD7 General] almararn:
Just wanted to let those who have accidentally (fully)bricked their phone, like I did, know that they are repairable with the jtag methood. So instead of throwing them away a jtag is a better option.

I damaged my bootloader whilst installing rspl/hspl, the information that I was following was unclear and I to inpatiant to read it carefully. Phone was still working though after that. Few weeks later I bricked it compleatly whilst flashing the firmware, hoping to fix the broken spl. :o

I couldn't find anyone in my country that has a Riff box, so I just ordered one for my self. There are some skills needed, but it's fairly easy. The Riff-box flashed the phone with a standard radio and working spl, and after that I could install a Rom of my choosing. Everything is working perfectly again. The riff box can also unlock the phone and make it "super Cid" so it will accept any Rom. Even change the IMEI number, not that theres anything to gain from that.

Im not selling this box or advertising. Just wanted do let those with fully bricked phones know, that it's not compleatly over :)

I can also share my experiance with the Jtag, if anyone is having trouble with it. I had some troubles at first, but they all got solved.
[HD7 General] agamy_80:
i have HD7 with same problem,what can i do? not connected with usb on boot loader
[HD7 General] kwaku85:
If You have completly damaged bootloader, only JTAG can help You.

I think We shoul make some sticked thread where anyone can find someone with JTAG device in near place. What do You think abut it?
[HD7 General] luna_c666:
Hoping this isn't my only option, but if it is, is there anyone willing to fix mine for a nominal fee? I'm really just trying to get the darn thing working and sim unlocked so I can sell it and it is bootlooping in USB host mode...
[HD7 General] amu_cpln:
You need a Jtag Flasher .. (like Riff mentioned above)

Dissemble the phone and solder the Jtag pins

the pinout for HD7 can be found by searching google for HTC HD7 Jtag (image search helps better)

If you cant get a Jtag Flasher or If you dont have the skill to open and solder Jtag wires .. you need to take it to a service shop for repair
[HD7 General] almararn:
If your bootloader is working then you dont need riff (for sim unlock I dont know)

you should be able to flash it with a new rom to get it fixed.

But if the bootloader is broken, hard reset doesnt work and usb host mode wont work either then I think the riff jtag option is the best solution. It will certanly sim unlock the device. But if it's the T-mobile usa version, I wouldn't want to use it on any othe network, because of their special 3G frequency. (I could be wrong) The phone will then only have 2G speed or of course WiFi at home.

If you are besed in USA, then this service could do it for you.

http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/htc-hd7-jtag-brick-repair/

their price is $40 plus shipping. (riff box costs $150).

I dont know them, only found them with google when I was deciding what to do about my phone.

And thought their website looked legit.
[HD7 General] snajdarn:
Sounds nice.

I don't want to buy a Riffbox myself, so I'm wondering... anyone in the north of sweden got one that could help? For a fee ofcourse.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] asrebel:
Good morning,

I ordered one of the new HTC View 4g off Ebay. Outside a weird power-on issue on initial boot (buttons lit up but the display would never turn on), it worked fine.

It continued to work flawless for about 2 weeks (well outside 3 random reboots). On 12/25/2011, I was reading a book via Amazon Kindle. I turned off the display and put it in my jacket pocket (as usual) and when I got home it wouldn't turn back on.

Now it doesn't turn on or charge, and there are no lights under either circumstance, which concerns me because it didn't suffer any impact/water damage, no upgrades, etc. and the device was over 50% charged when I put it into "standby" mode.

Any thoughts on how I should proceed? I'm leaning towards returning the device (already got a RMA), but A.) I'm going to miss it, and B.) I'm concerned about my data (since I can't wipe it prior to the return).

Any thoughts, feedback, pity? ;-)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Whoareyou:
try holding down Vol- and power for about 20-30 seconds, that will force it to reboot, if that dosent work, you shouldnt be worried about your data, as it wont be accessable unless they repair it and go through your data (unlikleey) ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kaijura:
Had something like this happen a few days ago to me on the View in stock Gingerbread.

I pressed the power button to time the screen out (on homescreen) and set it aside on a counter. 30 minutes-1 hour later, I went back to turn it on. It was like it turned off on its own, holding power down for 5 seconds didn't turn it on. I had to hold the power button down for 15+ seconds and it booted back normally.

Not sure what exactly happened, but hasn't happened any other times since then in 1.5 weeks of using it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] asrebel:
Update

globatron says it's not upgraded, so I'm still at loss...and you can ignore the statement below

...ignore...

Sooooo...I tried the whole recovery menu again, and this time it worked. I noticed hboot says 6.12.1002. I could have sworn I was at 1.1x, so I suspect that my tablet updated even though I specifically told it not to. /sigh

..............
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
I think you've got a lemon anyway, I'd honestly recommend you take the RMA, but you might want to go back to stock first.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] asrebel:
I think you are probably right. It's too bad because I kinda got attached to the dumb thing and the retailer doesn't have anymore (and I can't find any at the same price), so I'm going to have to do a refund. :-(
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kaijura:
Is this one of the units you got off bidallies on ebay?

If it is, that's the same unit I have. I remember my stock HBOOT was 1.09. We should have all been on 1.18.651.1 prior to any updates.

You didn't root it or take an OTA or anything?

Can't say I have had the same exact problems as you though..
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] asrebel:
I think I figured out the hboot discrepancy. Did you have any problems with the one you got from bidallies?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kaijura:
Nope, other than the small power down thing I wrote in post #3 and slight screen bleeding (takes complete darkness to see it) right above the proprietary port, that's the only minor gripes I've had with it. I have a few of these units, this is the only one with the 'issues' so far. Sorry that you've got a worse experience.

I thought I would start a thread about new changes to s memo with the latest firmware that came out ota today:

export to pdf (it exports to sd card only as far as I can tell so far)

sync with evernote-----it sets up a s memo notebook in your evernote and recognizes folders in s memo as subfolders (it did not do one of my folders though). ALSO---two way sync!!! The sync with htc flyer to evernote is one way. This is two. I synced all to evernote and then deleted a note in evernote. When I synced all again in s memo--that memo was deleted.

I am very excited about these changes and hope you all can help find more. I am also more optimistic that s memo might continue to improve. The ability to jot notes for reminders, to dos etc was my main reason for getting the note.

I might have been mistaken on the two way sync with evernote--getting different results as I experiment.

Hi All,

Being a bit of a noob here...

I understand that the stock google kernel has no cifs support. Is that right?

I can easily connect to usb drives using OTG cable and USB Mass Storage from the market but I'd like to do the same with home networked drives connected to other computers so I can stream video to the GN.

After doing some reading I see that I would need to flash a kernel with CIFS support and insert the right cifs.ko file in the system/lib/modules directory.

I haven't seen custom kernels based on the 4.0.2 stock kernel.

Any suggestions on how to proceed?

My GN is a rooted GSM 4.0.2 YAKJU.

So guys as 1st i wanna tell you that am sorry bout my bad english.

So my problem is that i installed android 2.2 on my mobile xperia x8.

I did it like on this tutorial: How to install Android 2.2 on Xperia X8 and X10 mini WITH pinch-to-zoom on youtube (please search it on youtube i cannot post links)

Everything was ok until i deccided to instal 2.3 from this tutorial:

How to install Android 2.3 Gingerbread on the Xperia X8 [Part 1] (please search it too)

I rebooted my phone i went to backup and restore and started to back up it said something like that i have only 130mb free on my sdcard but i dont exactly remember the full sentence.

Then it was done and i didnt know what to do because as you can see the guy in the vid doesnt show what dto do after ( not even in part 2)

So i rebooted my phone...But it didnt let me to it gave me Error.

Everything that happens when i turn my mobile on is that i get the Sony Ericsson logo and then cyanogen mod logo.

Hope you guys help me with fixing this.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J35US:
alright so i know what rooting is , my understanding is that before rooting i won't have administrative access to parts of the file system i think that means that

i'll only have access to "/mnt/sdcard" and not to "/"

after rooting i'll have full access to the entire filesystem

i know why manufacutures dont want people playing around in there ,my understanding - many things break easily deleting something or changing some permison can "f" it up

i've been with android for 1 year and roughly 6 months ,been through an x10 a DHD

other various devices currently on the Mopho so im not a complete nub

i know how to root ,you install this ,push this ,do this , that etc

my question is how is the root part blocked and how is root acheived i dont mean how to root a certain device, i mean how do the exploits do what do they change ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Basically, the root section is blocked since it is set to r/o which normal user permissions cannot change. Rooting exploits change the system permissions and pushes the su binary in to give you superuser access which will then allow you full access to the system.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaukassus:
as far as I know, Stock rom's don't have a root function implemented at all.

to get root access, people use exploits to change permissions of the folders to gain access to the System partition, and then the SU (superuser) binaries are put into /system/xbin , and then install the superuser.apk (to make use of the su binary)

EDIT:

Damn ninjas :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J35US:
so rooting is basically changing a few permisions of folders that i wont normally have access to in order to put the SU binary into the fore mentioned path

just re itarating to make sure i understand

additionally if i won't normally have access to these folders then how do they change the permissions <-- maybe pushing it but ask an you shall receive
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
You could say it like that but it grants you far more access and unlocks many possibilities making you the superuser. Rooting uses exploits which bypass these set permissions.

Why is it that when I Flash a new ROM to my Buzz that CMW version changes back to the one that I originally installed rather than being the updated 5.xx version that I have installed?

P.S. I have searched everywhere on here to find out BTW.

Thanks to any answerers.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slymobi:
I find that very hard to believe, what I suspect is that its not replacing your actual cwm but the rom manager cwm version and the reason that is, would be the version of rom manager the new flashed rom your flashing is not updated. Rom manager is normally included as a system app in many roms so when you wipe to flash the new rom,the rom manager version you were using will now be replaced with the included apps version within the rom your flashing. Turn your phone off and reboot into hboot (power button and volume down) to access your phones cwm version to check, I bet this remains the same whatever rom your using. Hope this helps your queery.
