The means to unroot isn't in the first post, and the OP is discussing this issue with him so - don't post unnecessary chides, it is a legitimate question, posted before I warned that this isn't a Q&A thread. Hopefully the answer will be included in the OP, as it is something that will be asked - over and over again :).
[LG Optimus Black] Whammamoosha:
You have helped me out quite a few times earlier and now I thank you for the "real thing": being generous enough to go through the trouble of making things easier to everyone else. That takes patience and a really good deal of generosity. And maturity above everything else.

When I began working with IT by 1981 I was nice to my peers. Then I became more and more technical and efficient at my job, and harder and harder at my peers and everyone else.

In return (despite all my capacity) I only drew drawbacks. My career sank. I had to start it all over again, with a different drive. ;-)

Today IT is just a hobby, and it's encouraging to see that at least a few of the most gifted people are showing that gift and contempt are not always bound to each other! :-D

Attitudes like yours, although they don't warrant you (1) a $300K/Y job, they DO warrant you (2) a very, very nice feeling that is hard to describe (albeit I suspect that you already know it) and (3) raise the suspicion that there's really a God and that (4) we are really above the rest of the animal kinds. I hope you get all four.

Congratulations and just forgive me for the last kitsch words :-)
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Thank you very much, for such an encouraging post :D I like and appreciate it very much. But there is one thing, that I can't stop wondering about, how could I help you out already? I mean you should probably know more bout IT and programming and stuff than me... Just curious ;) Anyway, I like to help ppl out a lot. I also do this in real life a lot, but the problem is, that a lot of ppl dont pay you back at all. Just using one's knowledge/money/whatever and not giving back anything, or even ignoring advices and stuff is something I hate the most! Just like some of the Noobs here. I have nothing against questions and there never will be a stupid one, so dont stop asking, it is an important part in life. But I hate the ignorant noobs, that dont even try to use the search, dont look around in the forum, are simply too lazy, to look around but simply create their own threads, with questions, or information, that can already be found here. And mostly you can't only find it once, but already several times, because of them.

So dont stop asking, but use search first, pls... I'm also still a noob, so I also gotta ask a lot of questions, and this will never stop, until I either throw away all the IT around me, a solar storm makes it impossible for us to use any kind of IT, or I am dead ;)

So to all the others here, share your knowledge with the ones, who also would like to have it. I also know, that it is time consuming, but trust me, giving, will mostly/always be warranted in any way later. I believe in karma and who gives good, will receive good. So maybe one day, when you dont have time/dont wanna mod anymore, but still wanna use good modded software, you need someone else to do it for you and who could do this better, but a person, that learned from you? So I never will stop supporting this community as long, as I got some time.

And I also know, I was writing a lot now and better stop now :D

Just one last thing, keep me posted, if we need some information added, so it can be found more easily, as long as it can be explained in a way, even I will understand :D
[LG Optimus Black] Whammamoosha:
It depends on the time frame. ;)

I know a lot of old-school stuff that is still valid, but when it comes to Android I'm a complete moron. Got my OB by Oct 2011 and I'm still trying to leave the craddle. BTW this OB is my first SP, and I wanted to take the most out of it.

Yes I need help, and XDA is BY FAR the best Android site I've seen in the net.

That's the spirit! :D

For some time I used to post frequently at ABXZone (used to be a more populated community) under the same nickname and believed EXACTLY the same thing. I don't post so often these days, since my kids keep me busy enough. But as I said, when it comes to Android phones I'm still a complete moron, so in some way I'm being paid back here for that I did there. ;)

Don't need to ask! :cool:

Ask Huexxx either in a PM, or simply in his thread, since I am sure, he still has got it somewhere on his PC ;)

Read the first post carefully and you will already find the link to gabwerkz and another theming guide :p and about making bootanimations, is nothing for a noob guide. This is meant to help ppl who start out with android. Not list every single topic in here ;) I think this is a bit too advanced for noobs. And as soon, as anyone is a bit into the whole android thing, he will know, where to search for and find sources of knowledge, he/she is willing to get :D But thanks anyway, maybe I'll add it to the second or third post :)

Is it your Fav phone?

mine by far

Tell us why its your favorite or why its not
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomas_wlc:
I don't mean any offense by this, but I think this Thread does not really belong in the Q&A section.

While it is a question if all of us think, whether this is the most awesome phone since the invention of cans and a string, it is not one that can be definitively answered.

So this would belong in the general section. This section - as I understand it - is for folks who have trouble with their device and seek advice or help.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sanadrate:
actually it was meant for "Off-Topic" i do not know how it ended here =0
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setspeed:
Not my FAVOURITE phone ever, simply because I waited so long for it and then it came with so many issues (for me). Dodgy loose z-hinge which causes the two halves of the phone not to stay tight shut (mine is still buffered with layers of electrical tape in between to stop the annoying tapping when one half hits the other when typing on the screen), poor screen in sunlight, really poor speaker, 4 row keyboard instead of 5. These are the things that made me unhappy when I got it, but with little else to choose from (Android qwerty-wise) I had little option but to get used to it.

I think my favourite phone ever has to be my G1, simply because it was on a completely different level to what I had been using previously (Nokia smartphones like the N85 and N73). Yeah, sure it didn't really have the hardware needed (especially towards the end of it's life) but I LOVED that phone like a child :-D

The G2/DZ is a pretty decent phone, but was not groundbreaking in any way, shape or form. The development scene for it is just as good as I remember the G1's being, which is a plus - and ultimately that, and the fact there are still no better qwertys in the UK, is the only reason I'm still using this thing.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] virtualflyer:
I love it because I got in love with it in March, and wanted to get it with a budget of just 250€ euros... No used ones weren't fake, so I got a Nexus One, great phone, and I decided to keep it thinking it was better of my beloved DZ, than in August Desire Z was 240€ new and sold my nexus one to get it. Now I love it, every single thing but the back cover which is already damaged. I like HTC assistance: they sent me a courier (is it right?) beacause I lived 20km far from the collection point and then in one working week I had it back repaired... (now on the other side they're asking me to go to the colelction point to get a new usb cable, which is 10€ and I should take 10 euros of train to get there..).

But as for the phone itself it just lacks a better GPU and a bit more of battery... Oh yes, it should be at least two metres thicker and five tons lighter

but I love it!

Its actually the only phone I loved that hasnt broken on me yet:D had it for almost a full year now and it still runs great. Dropped it plenty of times on the ground and it only has a few scratches & dents. Z-hinges aren't really bothersome and really isnt that loose, it makes the phone fun to flip and play around with actually! I really cant see a new phone w/o a qwerty board. Lets hope we get to see at least some this year.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xhitz:
I honestly dont know if there is another phone out there for me to update to! So I see myself with the g2 for a looooong time! And I would have never updated to it if it wasnt for the H+ speeds!

G1 in honesty has the best hand placement/keyboard feel!

Another plus was it was Black too!!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otariq:
Have had it for more than a year and was my first smart phone. For me the only other device that competes is mytouch 4g slide simply because I can't live without keyboard but imo this has a far better look and feel than the 4g
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bvdbasch:
It's my favorite phone, but it only became so after rooting it. IMO Sense is a bulky solution for dummy proofing a phone.When I rooted and got rid of the bloat I started loving it more and more.

I had a Desire before I went to the G2. I had to find out the expensive way that a touchscreen only phone just doesn't work for me :(
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dietotherhythm:
I had the g1 before this, and a few sidekicks before that. I've been hooked on keyboard phones since around 2006. Being a t-mobile customer, I am bound to what they provide so physical keyboards have become somewhat of a necessary thing for me when shopping for a phone. The g2 came as quite a surprise really. It's nearly 2 years old now and with a little tweaking, it's still preforming as well as a lot of todays (stock) high end devices. Bravo htc.

I'm looking forward to future physical keyboard devices.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -ErrorFile-:
This phone sure is a great product.

Nice collection of roms to choose from, and gotta love the keyboard.

First phone with physical QWERTY to me, and I won't buy a phone without it again.

This does need some tweaking (custom rom & overclocking) to be fast enough for daily use - but it's very easy thing to do.

This is my second Android-phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkira13:
I hate it, I don't use the keyboard much, but it adds a lot of weight and size. It has less RAM than other HTC phones and it has one of the worst designs. I wish I got a Desire HD as a present instead.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NewCenturyAuto:
Wow u are the first person I have ever come accross that has owned a G2, and actually hated it! This phone is the best phone I have ever had! It's has a lower amount of memory, and a slower processor then pretty much any phone that's out..... and my phones speed and accuracy still out proforms my friends IPhones and Galaxy phones, and the keyboard... what a life saver! Also this phone is really hardy! Someone spilt a whole cup of coffee on my G2.... after taking it apart and cleaning the coffee off of everything with rubbing alcohol and a quetip, everything worked like it never happened!

After the coffee situation, it did make me realize, what the heck am I going to do when this phone actually breaks or its just too old for school!?! I don't know what I would do without the keyboard! :(

You must be the first one to hate Desire Z.

I love HTC's style to design phones, also DZ's looks.

I like the weight - it makes it feel a very sturdy phone.

I've dropped my Desire Z many times (in asphalt too!), and it haven't even turned off.

If HTC makes a new version of this phone, I will buy that.

I wouldn't change this phone to my girlfriend's Galaxy S - bacause of the keyboard! :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] TorrentialDownpour:
I had an accident on my bike today... got bumped from behind by a car while going at 50 or so and lost control of the bike. Got saved by my helmet, rolling away and this fancy biking jacket my brother got me (think it has kevlar in it) but my bag flipped open and my Note went flying. :(

So I'm okay and thankful for that. But my Note hit the ground hard and split open... It's got two deep scratches on the glass (about 2mm long each) and a few lighter ones, plus a big scrape on the plastic casing at the bottom. This sucks so much :(.

Do you guys know if I could give it to Samsung to replace the glass? Will that be expensive? My phone's working fine but every time I look at it, those scratches almost physically hurt.

Its the first time I've ought such an expensive phone. Can't bear to see it like this...

That was terrible man. Glad you are okay, but sad with your note. I have a question, dont you guys buy insurance with such an expensive phone?

I pay 36 norwegian kroner/month (about 7 USD) in insurance, so I am covered if my GNote get stolen or smashed in an accident like this.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] TorrentialDownpour:
Thank you!

Me too. Managed to slow the bike a bit so I was fine, didn't even get anything more than a few minor scratches on me. Was just a bit shaken up, and really pissed. The stupid car sped off when he saw I was okay.

Actually feel a little guilty for feeling so crappy about my phone when I'm okay.

[ignore this]Don't have insurance for phones easily available here. I think. (I live in India).

Sorry. Was just looking. I was just ignorant about that. There are insurance policies are there or phones here, just not advertised.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SealsNavie:
You should be happy your not injured as it could have been worse, especially when your on a bike, as for the phone...if you don't like it how it looks try and contact Samsung or take it to where you bought it from and ask how much it would cost to fix :) ...i'd pay £100 for it if it came to that for a phone worth so much.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] foxmeister:
I don't know where you are physically located, but in the UK, I'd expect the car driver's insurance to pay for repairs to your note (assuming you were not at fault of course!). Failing that, your household contents insurance might cover it.

Dave

After uninstalling applications, they still show in the "manage application" section

Hi,

I don't know if someone else experienced the following issue. I tried to search it on the net but couldn't find something similar.

a few days back I purchased the autodesk sketchbook mobile and I also downloaded autodesk Pixlr-o-matic from the market and I also downloaded Trial Xtreme from Samsung apps, and they all worked fine. But I realised that everytime I reboot my phone those apps started to Force Close.

I decided to uninstall and install again and they worked fine, but again if I reboot the phone, they will stop.

Another thing I found when I was uninstalling those apps, is that some apps that I previously uninstalled are still listed in the manage applications section but with no icon and 0 bytes size. and if I click uninstall they disappear and when I reboot my phone they show again.

My phone is rooted and I tried wiping the cache and the dalvik cache, but the problem is not solved.

I wonder is those issues are related and if someone else experienced the same problem.

Thank you for your help.
