[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Miami_Son:
I have my phone setup to sync my Outlook contacts, calendar and e-mail via ActiveSync and my Hotmail account. This appears on the phone as a Corporate Exchange account using MS servers, but in reality it is just the Hotmail cloud (no Exchange client). It works fine for me (although contact photos only sync from Outlook to phone, not vice-versa), but I have a problem with contacts I create on the phone. There is no way to assign them to an account so they end up not syncing to my Outlook, which only syncs contacts bearing the corporate symbol or that have been joined from Facebook to an existing Outlook contact. I've looked all over and not found any way to either create a contact on the phone under a specific account or to convert one after the fact. The only workaround I have found is to create a new contact in Outlook with the same name, wait until it syncs to the phone, then join it with the existing contact on the phone. This is obviously not optimal. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iqak:
I'm looking for information on this as well.

In my case, my calendar, contacts, (tasks?) and email are all being syncronized via corporate exchange. I try to use my corporate exchange as my base point, so I would like to keep my contacts there by default.

When creating a new contact, I do not see how to designate where the contact is to be stored. I would think I would be given the option to save it under:

Exchange

Gmail

or phone.

I thought this used to be an option, but I'm not seeing it under the latest Unamed ROM.

Has this option been removed? or am did I ever have that option?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jack man:
I have a suggestion but I'm not sure it's exactly what you're looking for. I don't use exchange server email so I don't know if this is what you need.

I sync all of my contacts and calendar to Outlook using MyPhoneExplorer. you can get the app for free in the market and download the program directly to your computer (do a google search to find their website to download the desktop version). If your phone is on the same (wifi) network as your computer you can even sync wirelessly. It syncs perfectly in both directions - phone to computer and vice versa.

hope this helps.

I've also heard that the Kies program works. It can be downloaded from the Samsung website.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] audiophan:
Under sync settings, I unchecked the contacts sync for Gmail so now by default all new contacts are saved to Exchange.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iqak:
Found it,

Maybe NOT synching the Gmail account, made this option available but suspect it was just buried deeper than I remember.

I thought this used to be a context option.

In Contacts

Settings (leftmost key button)

More

Settings again (bottom of list)

Save new contacts to.....

Now, what was that darn password I needed to save again....?

Oh-Yeah, Netflix....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Miami_Son:
Iqak, that did the trick. I knew I was able to do that before, but why I couldn't find it before is beyond me. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Miami_Son:
I use to use MPE on my Captivate and it was a bit of a pain. I also had issues with it losing contacts and/or scrambling them up. Using ActiveSync with Outlook is the best way and thanks to Iqak I have it working as it should.:cool:
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Ok you need to stop posting the same question on multiple threads! Please be patience and wait for responses. You claim that you relocked the bootloader before ou attempted the OTA, but did ou also remove CWM and replace it with the stock HTC recovery? That will prevent the OTA from completing successfully.
[HTC Incredible S] greatbillo:
Yhanx for quick response can u tell me how can i replace stock HTC recovery ?????
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
You need to extract the recovery.img file from a RUU/ROM.zip file. Then you need to unlock the bootloader again and reboot into fastboot mode and flash the recovery.img file like you did for CWM.
[HTC Incredible S] greatbillo:
Thanx mate it really works.

Nope,bootloader doesn't mean that u have your sim unlocked,its a different thing.

C

Careful buddy u gonna mess ur phone up. U have no reason to downgrade kernel now flashtool can do it all on 2.3.3. If u unlocked successfully then it will still be unlocked unless u relock it yourself (flashing new Rom/changing kernel etc will not relock it). Refer to various guides on bl unlock but be careful. That sounds like a recipe for disaster pal. (if u need help pm me but it sleep time for me now so it'll b tomoz) :-)

[Kindle Fire General] Molinari:
This kindle fire reboots at random, even when it's doing nothing but sitting there recharging.

Are there different google framework versions or something I should try? (just a hunch since when rooting not much else changed).
[Kindle Fire General] aoaleman:
That's weird. Have you tried clearing cache and dalvik in Recovery and set permissions?
[Kindle Fire General] Molinari:
Gave it a try, it didn't help...
[Kindle Fire General] aoaleman:
There might be a certain program or process causing the random reboots... not sure what to tell you... if you'd like, look at open programs that may be draining battery.
[Kindle Fire General] thelonewizard:
I had this issue, but not to this extent. I found that it occurred most frequently when I was typing on the keyboard. The apps it crashed in so far are: Default Browser, Textplus, and market. Honestly, the only thing I've found to be even slightly helpful is typing faster.
[Kindle Fire General] Molinari:
Stopped every extracurricular one, except getjar.

I'm not sure what that is, or if it's part of the amazon market...

Still reboots even when just sitting.
[Kindle Fire General] smirkis:
flash a different rom.
[Kindle Fire General] Sandman21dan:
I had this random reboot for the second time today using cm7, one watching a video through the browser and another just after the screen off animation.
[Kindle Fire General] Molinari:
Any rom suggestions?

Could the launcher be causing it? I use ADW (though I haven't uninstalled it), but if I use the regular launcher it still reboots
[Kindle Fire General] aoaleman:
I use GO Launcher EX, no reboots here. Maybe try that one?

What I usually do is set permissions in ROM Manager AND in Recovery. No reboots or FC's of any kind.
[Kindle Fire General] TechJunkie198:
Hey Molinari, I just joined XDA today because I too was having this issue with my Kindle Fire. I was gonna post the issue as you did, however I managed to stop it from crashing this morning. My KF has been rooted with BurritoRoot, installed google market, and use Go Launcher Ex, and all was fine. It began crashing last night, every couple minutes like yours, including when the screen was off. Since then I uninstalled pdanet (wasn't even sure if I could use it to tether from my phone), and also reverted wallpaper permissions to allow amazon to randomly switch the wallpapers again. (KNOCK ON WOOD) it's been stable since then! (5-6 hours now w/heavy use). It probably wasn't the wallpaper permissions, but it could be like aoaleman said, certain programs or processes causing it to crash. For me, it looks like pdanet (it was also the last thing I installed before the crashes started occuring). Hopefully I won't be back here saying it's crashing still..

Goodluck! :)
[Kindle Fire General] Molinari:
I'll dig into it, I don't have pdanet on it though...
[Kindle Fire General] Molinari:
Still getting those random reboots.

Is there a log somewhere I can check to see what's doing it?
[Kindle Fire General] intersectRaven:
Try having your Fire connected to your computer running adb shell cat /proc/kmsg and adb logcat (2 consoles) until it restarts. If you're running on stock, there's no last_kmsg so you have to have your Fire connected perpetually while spitting logs. :(
[Kindle Fire General] lakotacrofut:
My Kindle was having the same issues on Burrito Root and CM7. I installed the newest update.zip file coming from a previous CM7 build. Make sure to wipe the Cache and Dalvik. I have not had any troubles apart from one random shut off so far.
[Kindle Fire General] Molinari:
I should have waited and read those posts.

So this is where I'm at now, I went into Kindle_Fire_Utility_v0.9.1

Hit advanced, then hit "Replace framework-res.apk"

Now there's no more reboots, but root seems to be gone according to titanium back up, but "root Explorer" still works as does the regular android market and superuser. Burrito root failed to give me root back, even though it indicated it rooted it.

So where do I go from here to get root back?
[Kindle Fire General] Molinari:
uninstalled and reinstalled titanium after redoing burrito root and all is well!

We'll see if it crashes in the next few hours.
[Kindle Fire General] iroctheworld:
install TWRP then Reinstall Frimware:cool:
[Kindle Fire General] Molinari:
Already had TWRP, "Replace framework-res.apk" appeared to cure the crashes.

Titanium just didn't see it was rooted, uninstalled and reinstalled titanium after redoing burrito root and all is well!

We'll see if it crashes in the next few hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voxigenboy:
It seems every day there's new posts of someone bragging about how they got like 24 hours + battery by such & such method... but primarily with the screen off/data off. Why even have a phone !?...

Please post useful threads about how long you got the battery to last during actual usage. How long did it last with the screen on the whole time? Data on the whole time? etc...

Then it would be insightful to see what rom/kernal/tweaks you've made.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I got 2 weeks standby. With my phone off. And had 93% left when I turned it back on. Shrugs.

[HTC Desire S] gjj1056:
I have a DS with S-off running hboot 6.x. I applied the OTA (2.3.5 with Sense 3) and after the installation, I got stuck on the white screen with HTC logo even after waiting for more than 2 hours.

Running recovery never did anything to fix it. So I managed to run fastboot and updated it with the RUU (Asia 1.47.x version) through USB. I got my phone back and retried the OTA. Still got stuck at the white screen with HTC logo. I repeated this for about 5x with no luck.

Having the white screen with HTC logo, I decided to downgrade hboot. I got a version 0.98.x with S-on now. My problem is that I am still stuck at the white screen with HTC logo and my biggest problem is that whenever I try to use the RUU (same asian version), it gives me a signature error message. I couldn't install the RUU anymore nor I can boot my phone. What should I do? :confused:
[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
In order to install a OTA, you must replace the custom recovery with the stock HTC recovery.
[HTC Desire S] gjj1056:
Thanks for your quick response. How exactly can I replace it with the stock HTC recovery? Can I do it even if my phone is stuck at the white screen with HTC logo? :confused:
[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
Can you boot to the HBOOT screen? If so then you should be able to get into fastboot mode and flash a recovery.img file extracted from an official RUU/ROM.zip file using the command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
[HTC Desire S] gjj1056:
Yes, I can boot to hboot. Where can I get the recovery.img? The official RUU I have is an .exe file, and if I extract it, couldn't find the recovery.img file inside.

If I have the recovery.img, how can I install it? :)

Sorry, kinda newbie. Thanks for your quick response..
[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
Search for how to extract the ROM.zip from a RUU. There is plenty of information. Once you get the ROM.zip file you will find the recovery.img in it.

Then you would flash it just like you did for CWM.
[HTC Desire S] gjj1056:
What's CWM? Do I need to copy the recovery.img in my SD card? Or just leave the recovery.img in my PC and let it run through USB?

By the way, why do you think that I got stuck on the white screen with HTC logo after the 2.3.5 OTA update in the first place? :(
[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
The OTA didn't complete because you had S-Off using Revolutionary. A OTA can only be applied to a phone that has the original HBOOT and recovery image in place. The Revolutionary S-Off process replaced the original HBOOT with a modified one and the recovery image with ClockworkMod (CWM).

You leave the recovery.img file on your PC and boot into Fastboot mode and then enter the following command:

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
[HTC Desire S] cckwan:
bro! i have exactly same problem here!

i can't install ruu as well as cannot connect to usb

so i have the same question is how to extract rom.zip

and wht's the whole flow doing this?
[HTC Desire S] gjj1056:
I will try it since my phone is not here with me yet, it's with the technician. Thanks a lot! I will update you the status when I try to get it. :)

Anyway, in my situation (phone won't update with .exe RUU file), do you think it will successfully flash recovery..img through fastboot recovery?
[HTC Desire S] gjj1056:
To get the ROM.zip:

1. Run RUU (.exe)

2. Don't continue with the RUU, just have it running, then go to windows explorer and search for ROM.ZIP in all the folders in your PC.

3. It would appear somewhere in a temporary folder, copy the ROM.zip file found.

4. Paste it in any folder.

5. Use Winzip or any compression program to extract the ROM.zip to a folder.

6. You will find the recovery.img there.
[HTC Desire S] gjj1056:
When I do this... it says:

FAILED <remote: signature verify fail>

How can I fix this?

want to know this too, have the same problem :(
