[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imevilbob:
ok so i have an hauwie Ideos s7 fat on 2.1-update1 (not the newer slim one which already has the update to 2.2).

its not tied to any network just use it at home on wifi.

i would like to know how to install apps on the external sd in stead of the internal also how to get to the folder which holds pictures and videos so i can move them to create more room. it doesnt have to much internal memory so by installing everything on the sd i plan to improve usage.

i have searched the google and have searched this site and various others and havent found the answer to my question.

so any help given would be great thank u

ps would also like to be able to to move existing installed apps to the external sd as well thank u
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
You either need to install the Froyo update (since moving apps to the SD started as a default feature in Froyo) or root your device.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imevilbob:
i think i rooted it how do u know if u did for sure?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Use this app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck&hl=en.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imevilbob:
root check said "congratulations this device has root access"
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Great, so that means your device is rooted. Now just use this app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.buak.Link2SD&hl=en.

im having problems partitioning out the sd card

i got the partitions to work, now i dont get how to get the apps to install to the sd card
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skittleys:
Use the app to transfer whichever apps you want to the new partition. Also set it to automatically link new apps to the sd partition, if that's what you want.

If you're having trouble, just Google it. There are hundreds of guides for using Link2SD, and thousands covering all kinds of ways to move apps to the sd card. Here's one to try.

Not finding reliable infor on this anywhere. I need to do a SIM unlock on my S2. AT$T says "the manufacturer provides this code", and the manufacturer says that "AT$T provide this code". I say, I'll get what I need from XDA, the only reliable source of info. How do I SIM unlock this damn phone?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Slavestate:
Well this phone is a bit different then most (like our Recovery being part of the actual kernel) so perhaps other phones don't have a simple software unlock and you HAVE to get the code from ATT. I know my old Moto Backflip didn't have a software option.

just try flash miui rom , after flash the phone wont boot , and the cwr also not work , it will boot to recovey by 3 button , but i cant select anything to install or anything all i can do it pull battery to turn it off , any help please ?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
Sounds like the back button is disabled in cwm ...just scroll to the top til it comes around to the bottom and then back up and it should reenable it and then you can flash...normally it takes two flashes to flash miui or cm7...

Boot into recovery

Wipe data, cache, dalvik cache

Install zip from SD card

Choose zip

Flash

Reboot

When it fails to boot

Pull battery then reinsert

Volume up, volume down plus power until Samsung logo appears. Then release...when recovery comes up

Reflash miui without wiping

Reboot

Enjoy

ALL HAIL *Z*E*U*S* !
[Samsung Infuse 4G] yongh:
i know take 2 flash for miui , but when im in the cwr i cant hit power to select anything , so that y i cant flash again

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zealousky:
I rooted my phone and put GingerBlur 4.5 (on 1.8.3?) on it a long time ago. I'd like to update to the latest from Motorola firmware with the unlocked boot loader and flash CM7.

I'm not sure how to do that though and I'm a little nervous to flash the firmware too because of all the bricked phones.

Can someone point me to the appropriate threads to read to get where I want to be?

Thanks,

[Captivate General] kevalin:
Well, after many months of enjoying Cognition 4.4.4 (the most stable version of that rom on my Captivate i879, build 1007), I've concluded that I need to look at upgrading to GingerBread. My phone is getting so it's kind of sluggish, especially with some of the new App updates from the market.

So my question is, which of the GB Roms is relatively easy to load and most efficient for an aging Captivate? I really need smooth and fastish... but most important to me is BATTERY LIFE. I'm used to getting 24 to 30 hours on my baby with moderate use, even with its somewhat aged battery... and I've gotten spoiled.

Mmph. I should also mention that this phone has yet to meet a 1-Click version of anything that doesn't end up soft-bricking it, so that's a factor.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
same rules apply for gingerbread that applied to froyo.

"best rom" is an opinion. best for you is a decision.

what you consider good is not what others will consider good.different roms have different options, you may like different things.

battery life is dependant on what you do, what apps you install, and KERNEL.

roms do come with a kernel. but it can also be changed.

in my opinion in FROYO the best was firefly 3.0 rom with onix kernel.

you want my opinion with gingerbread??? my rom. the one i made. though i may be HIGHLY BIASED.

this thread will be closed soon.
[Captivate General] kevalin:
Yes... and I apologize profusely for posting what is obviously a question in the wrong section of the forum. I'm usually more on it than that.

I don't mind getting opinions on this, though. The folks who are really about the rom they're into usually say why... and this being XDA, they often do so in detail. Those are the kinds of opinions that make it easier to make informed decisions, and I always appreciate them greatly. And yes, I will give your rom a look, bias or no.

Moderator... if you could please close this thread, I'll set about putting it in the right place, if there is one.
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
moderators will usually close these threads without being asked as soon as they see them, not because its in the wrong section but explicitly because of the reason i stated above.

xda does not want opinion based threads claiming one rom is better than others. because as i stated, one person will like one thing and others another.

or if you want to know whats popular just look at the "thread views" count of the [ROM] s in the development thread
[Captivate General] jonnyg1097:
I personally am on Serendipity for my captivate. I find that it is very stable for everything I need to do. Just an fyi there are also no more updates for this rom so on that note it will stay stable and you wont have to worry about updates for it.
[Captivate General] leezrd:
+1

Mabey just a lil bias lol
[Captivate General] brentett:
Saurom is a really smooth rom with good battery life I found.
[Captivate General] jaychoutzj:
SAUROM is good.Have a try.
[Captivate General] erad1:
GB ROMS are like cars, some are built for speed and performance others look good and some give you great mileage...and some have a nice mix of all three, the choice is up to you to test drive a few before you buy and then if you are not satisfied you can just trade it in for another model.

I have found something I like in every ROM/KERNEL (GB KERNEL development is exceptionally good) I have tried but its really a personal preference just as in the car you choose to drive.

[Dell Venue] masirvan:
1. Goto the dell venue wiki (http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Dell_Venue) and download these 2 files from Version 408

a. Thunder_408_20707_14.pkg

b. recovery.img (make sure its the version 408)

2. Download Thunder_408_20707_14.pkg and rename it update.pkg

3. type: adb push update.pkg /sdcard/update.pkg

4. Reboot and go into fastboot recovery, conect the usb and you should see yellow fastboot recovery mode 2

5. type: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (remember this is version 408)

6. Reboot and enter recovery mode, there you should see an option (update using update.pkg), select it with the camera button

You should see another screen in blue saying doing emergency update..................

Your phone will reboot and another update screen will appear saying Updating..... and a Android logo animation

Your phone should reboot one last time this time slowly be patient and you should see Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread welcome screen.

3. type: adb push update.pkg /sdcard/update.pkg where i type ?? have tool ?? i used windows 7

thank
