[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brosenz:
I have the same problem, I was able to ROOT and install CWM (I have version 5.0.2.7) using the instructions in this post. But I cannot do a ROM Backup with ROM Manager because it does not recognize the Recovery as valid one, I can boot into recovery from ROM Manager but I cannot do a Backup, I tried with the Manual Flash Overdrive option in ROM Manager and did not work, please any suggestion how to make ROM Manager recognize CMW that was manually installed ?, thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquallDNA:
i have the same issue with my Neo V. i installed CMW manually and wanted to do rom backups so that i can flash a new rom. unfortunately the rom manager im using wont allow me to backup telling me to install CMW which is redundant cause i already have CMW installed. and worse is its asking me to chose phone models where my phone models is not even supported. how do i get over these??? arent there any rom manager updates?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
ROM manager is not supported to Note

Just open CWM applicayion, you will find backup option there only.

I know, this question is been discussed over and over, but the thing I'm interested is - where are the android 2.3.4 firmware .42 sound volume preferences located in phone? Does somebody know?

I know, there is application called volume+, but that's not the topic.

I want to find the system sound settings and see, if there are any limitations.

i have forgetten my pattern and my phone is samsung galaxy gio and ihave installed a cayanagen mod 4 so what can i do ?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Wmbruckner:
If you cannot shut it down, take out the battery.

Then, reboot into recovery and do a factory reset.

That should work.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Darkshado:
Shouldn't it ask for your Google account password after enough incorrect tries?

Otherwise: factory reset the thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] sekhargreen:
After some failed attempts, it will ask for your Google account credentials. Input the same and it will solve the problem.

If everything fails, just flash it with another ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ares93:
Yes, me idiot brother (just kidding) gave his galaxy ace to his four year old daughter to play with. Took her maybe two minutes to lock it permanently. All it needed was the google credentials and it was unlocked.

On a sidenote, I wonder when the paranoia will kick in and these kind of questions will be forbidden. I mean on most boards, questions about passwords will earn you an insta-ban, but a warning at a bare minimum, it you stumble across a moderator who's in a good mood. (Which btw, doesn't seem to happen often. They're like coppers, get a kick out of punishing people :D)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] czkwg8:

You can shutdown you phone,and then press home&power to into the recover,choose the third,and then reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Andy:
I think you must of pissed them off with your stereotypical view of all moderators.

The question here is not how to circumvent the password. So I don't see a problem with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] mehdi_hz:
Entering your Google account may help.

If not WIPE / Factory reset should work. (reboot your phone and after powering on hold home button and after that go to Factory reset option and press home button)

Another way is to flash your ROM with new one.

Good luck.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Steven1145:
Hi all, I just got a Razr and really like this phone. I was wondering if it is possible to add new triggers to the Smart Action set. I was thinking of a "in pocket" trigger that would turn Wifi off (to avoid nice things like testicular cancer down the road).

Any ideas?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jlh11364:
Good Idea. I tried it and couldn't figure it out. My old WM6.5 phone could do it with a cab.

I think if we could just add the "in pocket" trigger, it could be easily done.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] br00x:
I booted my phone into recovery waited for Odin to recognize it...Uploaded the new modem into the PDA slot and clicked start...Everything says passed in green but when my phone boots...It acts as if it's in airplane mode, or has the circle with a line through it...It wont show any signal what so ever and it won't let me put it into actual airplane mode. What do I need to do so I can actually have signal with this new modem? Could it be because I flashed the new modem over a 2.3.5 rom?

Thanks in advance
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] saudi2usa:

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Mephistophe:
Mod / Project Goal:

Modify, edit, install or Code in the correct additions or changes to allow an Android device to be awaken by a press of any physical key on the tablet. To preserve or prevent the premature deterioration of the power micro-switch. on the Samsung 8.9, the button is not proud of the surrounding shell, and needs a very deliberate press.

Device:

On Samsung 10.1, 8.9, 7.7, 7.0+ and others running Android 3.2, and newer.

This mod may apply to other devices, as interest for this feature has appeared in many Google searches.

Questions:

1. Does this feature or a document of the feature exist?

2. Is there a configuration file that one can access and edit to allow the wake property to be assigned to other keys on the device? Do the keys on the Samsung have unique identifiers?

References to other mods:

Need to collect.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Isamu_Dyson:
Like most of my fellow XDAers, I've been struggling with battery management issues. What apps to install, CPU hogs and all that jazz.

However, while I've been very pleased with the battery life I was getting from my U8800, I saw several guys complaining of horrible battery performance. I thought that they were just 'doing it wrong'...

I now wonder...

Since November I started noticing strange battery issues. Very fast draining, misleading battery readouts... I wiped my device, flashed it with pretty much all roms (custom and official) available but my battery kept screwing me. And its been worse as time gone by! I now hardly get 8 hours with at most 1 hour of usage.

I'm now posting this after calibrating my battery 4 times the day before and the first time I used our today my battery life went from 100% to 82% in less than 5 minutes! CPU spy reports 85% of deep sleep. Better battery stats has hardly anything logged. I already ordered a new battery but if this keeps going on...

Thoughts?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
Why did you calibrate 4 times? How did you calibrate it?

Charge it to full, calibrate battery using app/recovery/deleting batterystats.bin, leave it to totally discharge, fully charge. It is not calibrated until you go through a couple of charge/discharge cycles.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Chubby_Skunk:
So I have my Skyrocket now... I'm very disappointed with the lack of development. I'm going to trade it in for the AT&T GS II, but I want LTE.

I was just wondering if the Vivid was going to be getting some good dev support and a official CM9 ROM.

From what I have seen, the Vivid's development is more empty than the Skyrocket's. :(

Anything going to happen soon with the Vivid?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
We literally just got unlock via HTCdev website a few hours ago. That's damn good timing for you my friend. So yes, there will be ROMs on the way, and CM9 (be it official or unofficial).
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Chubby_Skunk:
hahaha AWESOME! Perfect timing. I'm going to keep my Skyrocket for a couple of weeks then decide between the GSII and the Vivid then.

thanks for the update!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] backtothemac:
No doubt. Now that is timing. How about me exchanging my Titan today for a Vivid. PERFECT timing.
[Acer Iconia A500] mtmerrick:
Only one I know if is made by Toshiba, as a thrive system app. Anyone know of any others that actually let me access a flash drive, easily transfer files back and forth, ect?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Astro works for me. Once you understand the naming conventions.
[Acer Iconia A500] kontractor:
I use root explorer and it recognizes it. Astro as well.
[Acer Iconia A500] ultramag69:
ES file explorer. Just go to favourites and you'll see external sd card and usb drives...
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
A couple of good favorites,

But, for the internal, root explorer. A paid app, but, de-facto standard for working on things in the internal memory.
[Acer Iconia A500] hardslog:
File Manager HD works as well. You can also run that app as root if you were going to change system files. As long as you know where to look pretty much any file explorer app should be able to access your usb storage device.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
confusion..

Are you trying to read a micro USB card thru a adaptor or card reader.

If so not all brands of USB to SD will work.

I have one s carry in my purse to read full size cards that we use at work for job images.my tablet will NOT Read the SD card using this one. I think its a pny brand.
[Acer Iconia A500] mtmerrick:
Huh? Just using a regular old flash drive.

Root explorer came with my ROM, it took me a while to figure out I had to look under mount points, but it works. Astro actually works better (easier) for USB. Thanked you guys for your suggestions. Big helps.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:

I have nurve damage in my left fingers and shoulder.not to mention the chronic muscle pain.

Trade you my ruptured knee, for your shoulder. I'll toss in my walking stick ;) Custom made from Romania. For 6 starbucks coffee's I'll toss in the shattered plastic knee cap. Slightly used, 14yr old. But comes with accessories. Don't need it anymore.

No, you will get no sympathy, Just understanding. Life goes on.

ouch.

I was just short of needing joint replacement.and yes there are people far worse off then the both of us.

But with that said I will trade you some scar tissue and swelling for the coffee.hand deliveredfrom you.

Sorry for this in your thread op.

I will stop now.

I use root explorer and have always had astro.root explorer is not flashy or user friendly. Like a comand prompt it just works.
[Acer Iconia A500] mtmerrick:
xD I don't mind at all. The websites I come from are close communities where people going on off topic tangents is the norm - I was starting to think that didnt exist much here in XDA. (It certainly doesn't in my phone's worthless forum. >_>

[Acer Iconia A500] fermunky:
As I have yet to find a magical file manager that does everything I need, I keep ES File Explorer, File Manager HD, and Astro installed. Between those, nothing I haven't been able to do. I do know I have used a 2gb thumb drive from Swiss Army and ES File Explorer showed it fine once I opened the favorites section.

Edit: After reading all the posts, I fear I may have misunderstood the question and repeated the same thing others have said.
[Acer Iconia A500] mtmerrick:
s'ok. Actually, as I mentioned in my first post, the Toshiba thrive file manager is really nice. While it doesn't do root, maybe it could be ported over to the A500? It doesn't do root (unless there's a hack I haven't heard of) but it seems to do everything else very well.

(I was really looking at getting a thrive before I got gifted my a500. Turns out I like this one better anyways :P)
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
Thrive

I to actually like the look of the thrive tablet.. I Bought my acer when they were pre released.So it was not available.. Just like the ports on the thrive.. the ability to swap out the battery . and can put a CUTE PINK COVER ON THE Changeable back..

it feels very solid in your hand as well. with all the above said.. i do think the iconia is best.. unless the thrive gets totally unlocked...

[HTC ChaCha] Ramanas:
So i updated my HTC ChaCha android version to 2,3,5 and upon restarting i noticed that the updates under the clock on the main screen doesn't work anymore, i can press it and it goes to my twitter & facebook updates no problems at all and i can see there has been new posts on both twitter & facebook but it doesn't display on the main screen under my clock if you understand?

Everything else seems to be absolutely perfect with the phone though except this, is there something that changed to stop it showing updates on your main screen or has it disabled something that i need to re-enable i have looked everywhere but can't find it anywhere. Sure it's not a big deal but it was nice to see when new posts and tweets were posted up without having to jump into both Facebook & Twitter to see.

Hope someone can give me a hand, on another note is there anywhere i can find about how this LINK thing works? reason i'm asking is that my daughter has a facebook page (she hasn't posted her mobile number on facebook) and i have her phone number obviously in my mobile, but there is no way that i can see for me to link my contact that i entered manually to her facebook page, is it because she doens't have her mobile number on her facebook or something else? some info would be awsome.

HTC ChaCha is a really nice phone though so glad my wife bought it for me for my christmas, first android phone and i got to admit i will never ever go back to anything else
[HTC ChaCha] qbert456:
Welcome!! I can't help sorry as I don't use Facebook and use osr custom rom.
[HTC ChaCha] janplacek:
Go to HTC Hub and update the Clock Widget, then remove it from the screen and add it again. It could help you... If you want to link Facebook acount, go to contacts (people), open your daughter (with number) and tap on the small chain button in the right top corner. Then just select facebook and find the account you want to link.

[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
The RUU.exe needs to be executed on a PC and then you will find the ROM.zip file in the %TEMP directory structure. This ROM.zip file is the one you copy to you SD card and rename as PG88IMG.zip.

You can't simply rename the RUU.exe file to PG88IMG.zip.

[HTC Desire S] Daatta:
I think I had the same problem, but it's now solved with a little luck and studying the xda foorums. My situation was pretty complex, unbranded UK model didn't update so I rooted it with Revolutionary and installed Cyanogenmod 7.1. I didn't like it, so I restored original backup through ROM Manager. I was happy with the stock 2.3.3, until I realized that 2.3.5 is out. After factory reset the OTA update kicked in. At that time I didn't know that Hboot is still Revolutionary and S-off. No root, however. So the update failed.

Yesterday I decided that I want the 2.3.5 and downloaded stock RUU update and installed it. It was the same 1.28.401 version I was running. Installation via PC went fine, then came OTA updates (three of them). First two went fine, but the third update hanged on yellow exclamation mark. After removing the battery phone hang on white HTC screen. I was able to access the boot manager, but nothing else.

Next step was to restore original Hboot. It was tricky, fastboot found the device but installation failed with image error! (Platform check fail). Adb didn't even find the phone. I assume that eMMC was corrupted at this point. I was not able to access Recovery to fix it. Then I found recovery.img and was able to install it from SD-card. I booted recovery, formatted all partitions (cache, system etc.), reset battery data. Next I tried fastboot flash hboot engHBOOToverARX.img again and it worked! Goodbye Revolutionary :)

Then I just loaded the stock (RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8) ROM on SD card (renamed ROM.zip to PG88IMG.zip as always), installed it from Hboot and everything was fine. Hboot is locked and S-on. Running the latest 2.10.401.8 software with Android 2.3.5 and Sense 3.0. :D

All the needed information is on this forum. I cannot thank you enough for bringing my brick back to life!
[HTC Desire S] kostistheo:
Hi Daatta, I have the same problem as you did. It won't load update.zip or PG88IMG.zip ...I've tried everything (sort of)

What do you mean exactly "Then I found recovery.img and was able to install it from SD-card. " How did you do that?

How can I make the phone read from the sd card?

[HTC Inspire 4G] greentrees89:
so my power plugin/usb port is broken i can no longer charge my phone, my sd card still works and has a recent back up on it, im wondering after i root my new inspire if it will be as simple as installing clockworkmod and restoring the backup from my sd card, im wondering if this is possible with a brand new inspire mine is 6 months old, or if there is any changes to the inspire that i should be aware of, i also use a custom 4EXT recovery, will i have to install that again before restore, any knowledge and help would be greatly appreciated, thank you
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
Yes. Just root your new phone, install 4ext recovery and restore backup.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
CWM recovery restores the data partition as a mirror image of the original (including device specific information) and this can be a problem should the Inspire you replaced ever get back into circulation as a refurb. I wouldn't worry too much about that, but just to be safe, when I did this with my own damaged Inspire, I did a full CWM restore to the new phone, but then did a Titanium backup of the apps and settings, then wiped and restored the TB backup to the fresh Inspire. This ensures that any device specific info gets cleared. Yeah, I'm a little anal, but what the heck.
