I was wondering if there is a hack to be able to connect to the tilt 2 via bluetooth so use it as a bluetooth speaker for another device? Thank you in advance!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Chaos Design:
Don't Thinks So.

NO...There is no application available for the Tilt2 or any other WM based device that i am aware.

You can use your Tilt2 as the Sender and redirect all sounds from your phone over blue-tooth to a headset, Computer or and other blue-tooth reciver.

BT Audio avalible here works for me.

[HTC Sensation] jpfinne:
I am running ICS (Virtuous Inquisition Beta 1.3) and loving it. The only question i have is where is the autosync option for google accounts (specifically gmail). Emails show up when I refresh my inbox, or when i toggle sync on/off, but otherwise they are slow to be delivered.

Is there an autosync toggle/option in ICS? If so, where is it? Anyone else experiencing this?

Any help appreciated. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] jampe:
you can change those settings in settings -> accounts and sync -> your google account. however you are only able to choose if you like to sync or not. for me gmail sync works flawlessly. maybe try reflashing your rom if nothing helps...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] emmarbee:
Hi,

This question had already been posted in 'Android Q&A' section few days back, but didn't get any reply. Hope someone can help me with this problem here.

The new ICS 'People' app allows us to use higher resolution images for contacts. And it looks great on big screens. So I spent a lot of time, updating the contacts with high resolution photos. Also I made sure that I 'Sync' ed the contacts after it is done. But now, after doing a factory reset, when I tried to sync back the contacts, it is loading only the low resolution photos of the new updated pictures and not the high resolution of those pics. I checked in GMAIL->Contacts and found they have the same low resolution ones.

Isn't there a way to sync high resolution pictures in Google Contacts?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lithoss:
I'd also be interested in this. Its the Google account that saves the pictures in a tiny resolution. It looks horrible when synced to ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
there are three ways to get high resolution pictures.

First, and the only real correct way, is to use Google+. downside is that unless your contacts are on G+ they won't get a high res picture.

Secondly, use haxsync to sync facebook with your phone.

third, manually set high res pictures for every single contact. But yes everytime you wipe your phone you'll have to redo this. However, on normal useage it seems to keep them. i know my phone has synced a few times yet i still have the high resolution pictures on my phone for 3 contacts that are not on G+ and i've rebooted or shut down the phone at least a dozen times, even flashed rom updates and they kept the pictures.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gokpog:
This issue has been discussed here many times.

Short, every time you sync a google contact with a picture from google to your phone it will have the ugly 96*96 resolution. There is no way around it until the contacts team changes this restriction. They are aware of the issue but no word if or when a change is coming: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=49e2b1adea1aa11c&hl=en
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lithoss:
So wouldn't syncing your Facebook pics also be temporary since it probably saves the pics locally?

Here's to hoping Google ups the resolution of Google contacts for those who have lots if contacts that aren't on Google+ and wipe their phones often...:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
no, if you use Google+ or Facebook Sync the pictures are high resolution. thats because it saves that picture to your phone in addition to the google contact picture, but uses the high res G+ or FB picture.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] emmarbee:
That's too bad! What the f does G+ has anything to do with contacts photo sync. If I want to have a high res photos of my granpa and granny, should I ask them to be on G+? (One can even imagine them being on FB, but G+????)

Also now, too many devices are going to get the 4.0 update and this issue's gonna look terrible!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evangelion01:
Even if you manually add pictures to each contact (which I did), the pictures still aren't very high resolution. ICS still resizes the images, leaving them much less sharp than the pictures I originally chose.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] emmarbee:
If we report these issues to GSMArena or other such websites, will they publish it? So that Google might consider it seriously... Like filling in a petition
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] namelessrabbit:
I actually though about just this too.

It's apalling that Google doesn't listen to thousands of frustrated users, but hopefully they will listen to big and influential websites like GSMarena.

So we would need people with good contact to the authors of these pages.

Anybody around here knowing one or more authors?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Its already being fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chjade84:

It's not that I don't believe you but I've seen this problem reported for a loooong time and it's yet to be fixed. I can't say for sure since I'm not a dev for Google but this "fix" should take maybe a week max.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] emmarbee:
for the past one year? They should've fixed it before releasing galaxy nexus. as of now haxsync is the only lifesaver. Not only for High Resolution picture, but also for Facebook sync

Months of people shouting the same complaint and google employees chiming in with varying degrees of "working on it" and no progress.

Seems like for whatever reason, someone somewhere thinks it's better to say nothing than to tell people that it'll be a while. That or someone at google is just really bad at their job.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Facebook sync is Facebook's fault. The API is there, they are just lazy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] songokuj5:
I'm very disappointed, this bug is very annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zapek666:
The bigger a company is, the slower they become. Instead of having one guy do the work and fix it, you need to pass through several layers of approval and people "management" which get in the way. Not only is the request lost several times in between but even if someone at the company wants to fix it, they're told to do something else or fear the risk of being fired.

This is why progress is often achieved by small groups or individuals.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kookooktchoo:
This really sounds like it could work. It's unfortunate but there's generally little incentive to change something unless a fuss is made. Look at what happened with Siri and the "best phone ever" question (Lumiagate). This stuff happens in politics all the time. Nothing gets changed until the press has a field day with it.

That's a good way of putting it. I wish this was fixed because I love seeing high-res pictures in my caller id. Unfortunately, none of my friends use Google+ and I don't use Facebook. Currently I just update the pictures of people who I've starred and, every now and then, I'll update the pictures of people I happen to have on my phone at the moment. I hope it gets fixed by the time JB is dropped.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] B4-Hunter:
Maybe it's cause of bandwitch or older phones that will use 96 x 96. That's why they are thinking how to get around this... Let's hope that they will soon fix this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] santhosh0123:
They are forcing people to use g+. no other reasons.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Janzomaster:
This is what actually bums me out. I don't use Google Contacts, but a WebDav account, and I still end up with low resolution contact photos! When an Iphone receives a call, you see a big, nice picture of your contact - on Android, even the newest version, you get a blurry, fugly pic.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cholera:
Using a first port of JellyBeans for the Captivate the syncing with high-res profile pictures works!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] .wojtek:
I'm as well on JB (4.1.1) and I still have blurry avatars :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
They contact photos don't just magically go high-res. You have to update them. After updating they will sync high-res in the future.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] .wojtek:
I'm aware of that, yet I think that I updated the photos and then re-sychronized and I ended up with low-res... will have to test it better
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Janzomaster:
It doesn't work for me - when I add a high resolution picture on the phone, no syncing, the profile picture is still displayed in bad quality.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soulx_:
I flashed the Overcome ROM through CWM on my Rogers Galaxy Tab 10.1. (GT-p7500R) and now it won't boot up. It's stuck on the 'Galaxy Tab' logo. I can enter CWM Recovey (which looks a bit different and is now called Overcome CwM Recovery). I have a backup in the internal storage from CwM but when I choose the zip, it says 'No files found'.

When I finished flashing Overcome, it said that the 'Install from internal storage [was] complete" but I can't boot it up. Help?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaneinOne:

err, bump?

Is it possible to flash the ROM using ROM Manager?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgsshedden:
not sure about ROM Manager but the instructions on the Overcome page are very well written. Sounds like you either had a bad download or needed to clean your phone of legacy firmware prior to flashing. The fact that the Tab bounced back with stock is good.

Follow the procedures on the Overcome site precisely, including the procedure there for a clean install and you should be fine.

You will need to re-root and install cwm again.

I just recently went from the stock kernel with cwm eg30 deodexed root/busy box with 3g wifi hack to the new EL13 located below. (deodexed and modem flashed)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1389874

I did a backup in titanium pro and cwm before starting.

The flashing went ok for the modem and the rom. I rebooted after wiping the cache and all and everything seemed ok.

I then started getting force closes and the launcher/phone would reboot. So thinking that there was some app data not installed right i went to do a restore in titanium and it would not complete do to the locking up/rebooting. I booted into cwm recovery to do an advanced restore and it keeps saying it cant access the folder ==> no files found and then goes back to main menu. I tried the fixed permissions and no change. The files are there I can see them on the internal sd as well as the copy i made to the external sd.

Is there something else I need to do? i cant seem to get it to restore.

I did end up clearing user data through cwm and it seemed to be successful except for the secure android piece of it. I rebooted an no force closes. I then ran titanium all apps+data +system data. 90% seems to restore except for widgets being set up on the home screen and widget locker. I can reset those up manually.

I want to make sure I am not going to have more force closing so I would prefer to restore all from the cwm nand if possible.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
Something is wrong with the current recoveries for our phones in my opinion.

Maybe it's something we are doing, would be nice if a DEV could speak up but here is what I've noticed. I'm runing Calk's E4GT Rom. Is uses Rouge kernels/recovery and 99% of the time when I do a Nandroid backup when I try to restore is says something like files folders couldn't be found and drops back to menu.

Now if I mount my phones internal memory OR SDCard depending what I used, I'm finding my recoveries ON my device but for example I'm finding them in places like:

/smmc/smmc/bmmc/*

or

/sdcard/sdcard/*

* being the actual directory the backup is in.

That said if I MOVE those date coded folders to /clockworkmod/backup/* all the sudden the phone sees them.

It's making the Nandroid backups in the WRONG dir 99% of the time and I've had this happen at least a dozen or so times. Matter of fact, it just happened yesterday. My Nandroids showed up in /sdcard/sdcard/* so I moved the dated folder to the clockworkmod folder as mentioned and poof, it works. Then I made a another Nandroid backup and it made it in the right directory (/clockworkmod/backup/).

Who knows... DEV's? On a side note, I also had this happen with just the standard CWM as well as the ACS hacked one, not just the Rouge version.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kilthro:
Thanks. I figured this is what was happening. I did try coping a few things and nothing would help in my case. I did run another backup and it finally seen that one on the sd card.

When i do a restore do I need to wipe user data ect first?

The reason i asked, is I am on the EL13 and i am trying to trouble shoot why at certain points after installing apps or going into usb mode (usb debuging on) and then dismounting the phone, then unplugging the cable my phone freaks out, and basically ends up doing a quick reboot, (quick sprint splash screen and then back to the lock screen as the launcher loads) well tries to load. It usually fails. Then i have to power cycle the phone and all seems fine. Sometimes I get in a reboot loop though. I don't as far as I know have any kind of app moved to sd card outside of games that would have a service running that would freak out when in usb mode.

btw the apps were set up the same way that they were on my stock rooted only eg30 image and i had no issues like this whatsoever on that. I have only had these problems since going to the el13 on here. Both the deodexed and odexed and the sock odin version.

So I did a nan restore before the installing of my apps. Just a clean cwm/root el13 image and when I booted back all was fine until i install my apps again. Cleanly from market or amazon. When I try to move the game to the internal storage via the built in app management program it errors out/fails then I do it again and it moves over. Every now and then i get a device is full error message when installing apps when i clearly have tons of room left on the rom and internal sd.)

reg storage is only 200 megs used with 1.8 gig free and the internal sd has 10 gig free.

So I dont know why this would be happening when I do a restore with cwm. Maybe i didnt do something right.

I did wipe the dalvik/cache before booting though. it had no effect.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ssconceptz:
do a complete wipe, and restart all over again. the issue lies in the recoveries most of the time because one kernel uses clockwork while others use their own recoveries. restoring backups made by other recoveries can give you issues. i personally only like clockwork recoveries and the others just annoy me lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kilthro:
They were all clock work backups/restores from the same build/flash/os build/version

Would even restoring some app data via titanium be bad? I dont do all data just on some games, and apps. Never anything system related
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
For me this issue was NOT because I changed recoveries which all of them are based on CWM anyway but that is besides the point.

I could have Team Rouges Recover based on CWM flashed, wipe my phone, and this issue comes up.

Seems to do it with all the recoveries though on and off.

I had spied that awhile ago. Finally tested it marvelc side; didn't work except for the desensing/resensing. That works from all indications.

I also found an apk on the market I've mentioned a few times that does root/unroot; It's called un-Rooting [and the subtitles are in a language I can't read; but it works marvelc side][anyone care to test it gsm side?]; busybox [installer] also available on market. I've found market apps to be easy advice.

As for gsm'ers only known tool [still] to work is the xtc clip; which is a small hardware device one can order for around $40; Simonsimon34 has the latest s-off guide for marvelc.

Alquez's cwm works on both cdma & gsm :)

Thought I'd drop mention of these tools again.

Can replace 4-5 apps with this one. Good good end-user tool.
