Sorry for the delay.

I managed to flash GB with the LG Flash Tool.

No root for it though.

For your case, it seems as if the computer is having trouble locating the device.

"adb devices" didn't pull up anything.

Can you flash a file with the LG Flash tool?

If so, download V10C_00.kdz and flash that.

Then root and install ClockworkMod Recovery.

I just did that.

EDIT: Acutally. Turn on Team Viewer.

Any good ones for this keyboard?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] eggwolio:
Get the slideme marketplace(http://slideme.org I believe). There you'll find NESoid, SNESoid, GBCoid, Ataroid, and others. The only one which costs money is N64oid. These used to be in the android market, and used to all cost money, but there was some sort of drama where google pulled them from the market, so he moved them to slideme. All controls are customizable, but for the best experience, go to http://www.game-gripper.com and request that one be made for our device. That was recommended in another thread as well.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] doenis:
Hi everyone,

I noticed my razr seems a bit picky about what can be sent or received via bluetooth:

i wanted to send a .apk to a friend of mine but the transfer via screen did not show bluetooth

as an option and when my friend tried to send me a .bin file but my phone didn't even asked to

accept, his just showed an abort. i also tried sending with another explorer, but it just called the

same transfer-options window. he then tried to send a photo which worked just fine.

I noticed similar behaviour in webtop, don't quite remember the filetype, but the explorer just declined with "unknown filetype".

Is there an easy workaround for this behaviour? i am already rooted, so playing with configs wouldn't

be a problem, don't really like installing all kinds off aps for small tasks.

Then there's webtop.( i am using it with a 8€ hdmi cable of amazon nebtop and the logitech ps3

bluetooth keyboard with touchpad just fyi)

firefox does not seem to have a flash 10 plugin, which means that i can open some flash-based content on the

phone-browser but not in webtop! is there a way around that?

Also, i don't really get the goggledocs login feature, as it just seems to be downloading my docs but then

still opens them in firefox, which quite frankly is too slow.

Seeing the various webtop-hacks on this board i get the urge to try them but i am expecting the effort

to go wasted once an OTA comes around. (?)

regarding OTA, i am in germany on an unbranded razr and have not yet received the first one. as i said,

i am rooted and have course frozen some bloatware. while i have read this prevents me from installing an update,

would i still be notified?

well back to the possibilities the hdmi port gives us: when using my bt keyboard in mirror mode , android functions are scattered all over the board,

[home] does home, [esc] does back and the menu button for blueray works as the menu button, i have not yet found a search button,

it just starts searching when i start typing.

while this is pretty logical, i could use [home] for its traditional purpose now and then. where would i have to fiddle around to rebind keys?

does every keyboard send the same buttonpresscodes or would i have to find those first (probably via some kind of shell?)

i think those are all my questions for now, some insight would really be apreciated.

best regards
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sh4itan:
hey doenis,

did you ever tried to rename the files? some files seemed to be not "sendable" in old OS's like Symbian S60v5. Maybe it'S still in Android?

And the WebTop... Tried another browser? Not sure, but maybe Opera will support? i've never tried this, but maybe that's the way?

The keyboard... It's out of my knowledge, but would it be logical that every keyboard is sending another keydown argument for the same key? sound not logical for me... maybe there'S some config file? but i would be careful by changing keyboard settings in configuration files...

greeting,

Sh4itan

PS: Grüße von Deutschland nach Deutschland ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] doenis:
the root fileexplorer as part of the rom-toolbox by jrummy16 calls a send-to window including all options

on unknown filetypes, where the stock explorer would say ~"action can not be carried out by any programm"

(when pressing share) so that's working now.

using an other browser: thats kind of the problem, the way i get it webtop is pretty closed down, that's

why i'm thinking about applying one of the hacks around here.

gruesse zurueck
[Motorola Droid RAZR] doenis:
ok today root explorer does not offer bluetooth transfer for any filetype and i noticed

that even the gmail client won't offer downloading several filetypes, in this

case .zip and .gz, which my milestone would accept without any problems.

i need some help here people.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] marsonist:
You may have flash problems in webtop regardless of hack status or which browser you use. Flash is not open source. Adobe would need to compile flash 10 for ARM processors for a plugin to work. I do not believe that they have and (since they are abandoning mobile devices) I don't believe they will.

Any software that you would want to run on a hacked webtop environment would need to be compiled for ARM. With open source stuff, you can always compile it yourself. With closed source stuff you are at the mercy of the software's developers and unlikely to find much that will work.

Using the Ubuntu hack should make other opensource office suites available to you, but the likelihood of them being a simple point and click install is low.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] omnia38:
I have not noticed any problems with the Firefox browser on my lapdock. I am able to view all flash content just fine. Don't really know what the problem might be there.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] doenis:
theres some flash-content running, probably most of it, so i guess the important things i tried use flash 11, too bad

so did anybody else notice the ignorance regarding several filetypes?

the other issues are probably solvable with some research, but any input

will still be appreciated.

HI everyone ,

I'm currently using a micro-fibre cloth to get rid of fingerprints . But sometimes theres too much grease(oil) and the cloth fails . I'm using a

'laptop screen cleaning solution' called "iclene" (LOL)

it's alcohol free and anti-static .

The question is : Is it safe ?

I mean newer screens hav some anti-fingerprint coating don't they ?

p.s:btw the solution works great so far. I use it on the cloth and the screen is crystal clear [for a while] . My screen is wierd to touch for about a minute and then its ok . been using it for 2 weeks and no prob .

I've tried to move everything except audio and put a custom bootanimation.zip in system/media but it boots with a black screen and I can't see the bootanimation. Maybe it doesn't work on Italian stock 2.3.6.

Thanks for your help, again.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reno_79:
Hi all,

having quite a few problems with 4EXT recovery, and it formatting my sd-ext partitions. I read quite a few thread on here about using 4EXT to correctly partition memory cards, and I recently (tried) upgrading my rather old 8Gb class 4 Transcend micro-sd to a Samsung 32Gb Class 10, and thought I'd do things properly.

I boot into the recovery, hit Tools, Partiton SD Card, hit the tick to say "I'm ok with it destroying my data" remove all partitions, select 1024Mb for first partition, and after that I've tried about 5 different combinations, including skipping both the second partition and the swap, trying two 1Gb partitions for SD-ext and no swap etc etc. It then prompts me to pick EXT3 or EXT4, and I always choose EXT4.

Everytime I do this however, the EXT partition is never formatted, despite it telling me it completed successfully. This means that when I install my rom (MIUI-XJ Data2EXT one) the rom will not boot as it has no EXT partition to write to (I'm presuming as I get no specific error).

Has anyone else had similar problems or can they point me in a direction where I might be going wrong?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help shed some light on a user who is rapidly going grey here lol
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Which recoveryversion do you use?

Sent from dGB using Transparent XDA App
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hassand:
I suggest you use the rmd recovery. when the recovery is booted it tells you what partitions you have on the sd card. other than that it is by far the best sd-card formatting recovery i have used. the only better option is gparted i think

i have had similar problems with 4ext and i am not using it anymore
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
There's no such generally known bug in 4ext. if you're facing issues, I suggest you contact Maximillian with logs. I haven't seen anyone with a greater passion for fixing things..	That's the way you contribute to development-by helping fix any issues.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
RMD is crap. There is a huge bug whereby there are issues backing up .android_secure.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reno_79:
I'm using 1.0.0.3 RC3 4EXT Recovery Touch

I'll see if this makes any difference. I did try and reinstall Clockwork Mod Recovery over 4EXT but for some reason it didn't work, and I still have 4EXT, but right now I'll try anything lol
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marius.a:
U can use Gparted to format your card from pc
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hassand:
for backup i use cwm

for partitioning, i have used it many times with 1 ext4 partition or 2 ext4 partitions and a swap and such, it has never failed yet. after i partition the card, i go back to cwm, so i have no experience with backups on rmd
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Just for partitioning? How odd?! haha

RMD uses SDparted for partitioning so it does not correctly align the partition, which hinders performance.

Gparted is the best way. Not sure how 4EXT works for partitioning but apparently it does not use SDparted and DOES align. Whether thats by scripts or not I dont know.

Anyway Gparted is the best choice for partitioning
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reno_79:
Just to check things out as I've read stories about mislabelled micro sd cards being sold before, I just performed a full surface scan on the card, came up clean. Just tried GParted... still no go.

Could there be a problem with the partition sizes I'm choosing?

Do I need 2 ext4 partitions? (I'm assuming yes as I have two on my 8Gb which was partitioned perfectly fine within Clockwork about a year ago; 1 of 1Gb and one of about 70Mb)

Any other software I can use to partition via the PC?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
One fat, one EXT

Whats happening in Gparted?

Tell me exactly how you are setting up and what the problem is please.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reno_79:
That's what I thought, one of each.

Gparted says completed fine, but looking in 4EXT Recovery it still says my EXT4 is unformatted and I cannot install my rom :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
no idea then, other than removing all the partitions then create all from scratch.

Create Fat32 at desired size then format fat 32 as fat 32. Create EXT4 as desired size then format ext4 as ext 4...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thesavagedonkey:
Using Gparted you need a Fat32 partition (main partition) followed by an ext3 or ext4 partition (just 1-2gb) Make sure its Fat32 first though.

For some strange reason, possibly drivers, I had trouble with Gparted running through VMware, maybe try making an actually bootable CD or Usb stick. Worked for me.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colin_404:
you can use PARTED MAGIC but its basically Gparted and Parted put together in 1gui.Some other useful tools in it as well.

Also it runs off the computer ram, which is better than a live cd
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reno_79:
Well a little update:

I've managed to get ClockWork Mod back on the phone, and it seems my partitions are working correctly now. Just got a bootloop problem now, I'll get there eventually lol
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reno_79:
Looks like it's a bad sd card, no matter what I try and do, even if the software I create the ext partition with say successful, once I get it onto my phone it's not there anymore. Will never buy an micro-sd from ebay again.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parva4:
I wouldn't blame the SD card. The Desire is notoriously awkward where using 32Gb cards are concerned, indeed I'm sure it's been said that it only supports upto 16Gb cards though I suspect some may have gotten 32Gb cards to work. Similarly, class 10 cards are a bit hit and miss with the Desire. It's taken me a couple of attempts to get a working class 10 16Gb card and to be honest there's no noticable speed improvement over my class 4 8Gb and 4Gb cards.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reno_79:
That a fair point, so I thought I'd test it in my mates Sensation XL and another's Galaxy SII (Why do all my friends have much newer, bigger phones than me? :( ) Anyway... long story short, same kinda problems, ebay seller has been shut down, paypal looking into getting me a refund and I've bought another Lexar 32Gb that was on sale at amazon. Should be the end of my problems, but thanks everyone for the help.
