doesn't seem like it...

Had the same symptoms after flashing a ROM... Touchscreen was not responding and the hardware keys only worked until some point...

only thing that helped was a hard reset...

Have you tried connecting it to your Computer? Maybe possible to backup some data at least?

[General Questions and Answers] nicksti:
I need some help picking out a phone. Valentines day and all.

Full Touchscreen 3.5" to 4.2"

8+ hrs talktime rated

3G ATT USA Band 850MHz

Pink preferably or white as a second option.

List so far:

Nokia N8

Nokia N9

Nokia Lumia 800

Samsung Galaxy S2

Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I love the N8 camera. Symbian Belle makes it a little more palatable but it does have Symbian on it. I love the N9 hardware and look but Meego is dead and hoping for that ICS port might be a mistake. Can't go wrong with the two Samsung phones except they are more expensive than I wanted to go.

Any help would be appreciated.
[General Questions and Answers] Dark lord me:
I believe that you get get white and pink I9100's
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
The lumias are undoubtedly the best option. Is she a tech person?
[General Questions and Answers] nicksti:
No. She is coming from a BB 8900 and the only requirement would be a cross platform messaging program her BB people can also use. Pink and good battery life are really her only requirements (plus chat) but I threw in the rest.

This does bring us to another question.

Samsung Galaxy Nexus - 17hrs talk time 2G 1750mAh battery

Samsung Galaxy S 2 - 18hrs talk time 2G 1650mAh battery

Am I to believe these times? Seem too good to be true.

Hello guys.

This week Google Chrome for Android has been announced, but is not available on SGS+ yet...

Even if it's still in beta phase, is it possible for anybody to extract the apk from another system and make it available? Shouldn't it be possible to install this manually on the SGS+?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] despotovski01:
Google Chrome Beta requires Android 4.0 or higher, so it won't run on Gingerbread.

[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
ok...i saw most of you are not comfortable with using ADB. many don't even like the linux typo command prompt environment of adb.

enter QTADB. if you are not using this, you are missing the MOST IMPORTANT SOFTWARE THAT EACH OF YOU SHOULD HAVE FOR CONTROLLING YOUR PHONE through PC.

QTADB is simply ADB with a graphical user interface.

u can use it to pull file from phone. push files to phone. reboot recovery, wipe data. backup apps to computer from /data, install apps, screenshot the phone, get the ever important logcat. get the exact phone info (battery,sd, system, sd, ext available), batch install/uninstall applications and more.

Requirement: u should have adb installed.

here is the link to this awesome app: http://qtadb.wordpress.com/

and here is the link of it working in YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTFqepcDMTE tested working 100% on linux & windows 7

hope i helped.

But I do still loving much the Command Line Interface :D It's been since 2002 using my first CLI on Slackware 8.x :p
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
:D :D...depends. i too love the cmd format, but many people (like my GF) really hate the cmd. so, i thot to share. it might help ones not confortable with conventional SDK way.:)
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Of course, we need to share our knowledge to others. Some people fits with CLI, but not others.. especially when they learn computer now, not in early years when even Microsoft haven't release his Windows GUI, still under MS-DOS :D

So it will helpful to others for sure ;)
[LG Optimus Black] McRIP:
Ooh yes,

I do not remember how many times ADB solved my disaster and get back my black after bad flashing or something else.

So, will download and give a try.

Thanks for the tip.

[HTC ChaCha] Jorinde123:
Hi there,

I'm trying to use A2SD, since the HTC ChaCha has a ridiculously small amount of internal storage... After following the instructions thoroughly (Partitioned with MiniTool Partition Wizard, 1 partition Fat32, 1 partition EXT2 of 1024MB and then i flashed the A2SD zip through the CWM Recovery)

I installed Quick System Info Pro to check whether it's working. But the A2SD shows "no information available". My Application Manager tells me I only have 86MB left (I haven't installed much, yet, because I want A2SD to work first)

So after searching the internet for I few hours, I couldn't find anything like my problem. I tried the a2sd diskspace command in terminal, which gave me the errors "Darktremor Apps2SD may not have ran during boot. Cannot read a2sd.mountpoint" and "SD Card not mounted".

I can access my SD card with no problems at all. What's going on?

Can somebody help me? T.I.A.!
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
As far as I know the SD partitions only work if you create them with CWM. I'm pretty sure there was someone else posting a similar problem with a partition created using linux.

Try partitioning with CWM and check if that works.
[HTC ChaCha] Jorinde123:
I've tried partitioning via CWM before, but A2SD didn't work. Therefore I tried using MiniTool...

Well, did the whole thing over. Partitioned via CWM. Flashed A2SD zip again.

QSI: "A2SD-storage: No info available"

I ran a2sd diskspace in terminal again. This time I get the errors "No a2sd.swap environment variable found" and "Darktremor Apps2SD may not have ran during boot. Cannot read a2sd.mountpoint"

If I try a2sd reinstall i get the "DarkTremor Apps2SD may not have ran..." and "No SD mounted"
[HTC ChaCha] faizkalwar:
Darktremor A2SD working on HTC ChaCha but only for ext2

I dnt knw reason but i tried ext3 it dsnt work..(Partitioned with MiniTool Partition Wizard)..but when i tried ext2 it worked again Partitioned with MiniTool Partition Wizard...

but in command a2sd partlist it shows that my rom support ext2 and ext3 but dsnt support ext4.

But actually it is not supporting ext3 as well..
[HTC ChaCha] Jorinde123:
Doesn't CWM make a partition as EXT2 by default?
[HTC ChaCha] faizkalwar:
NO

No only make partition as EXT3 by default.

i'm using latest version of CWM 5.0.2.8..
[HTC ChaCha] Jorinde123:
Anyway.

First I partitioned with MiniTool 1 Fat32 and 1 Ext2. Didn't work.

The second time with CWM partition Ext3 it still won't work.

Anyone?
[HTC ChaCha] faizkalwar:
if ext2 is found during installation it will work without do anything

to check if it works type a2sd check

if ext2 is created after install type a2sd check then a2sd reinstall

(execute using adb shell ex. adb shell a2sd check)
[HTC ChaCha] Jorinde123:
Nope, didn't work. Maybe it's because i was using the stock rom, and the rom might refuse.

I installed CM7 now, but it's not really satisfying... I JUST WANT MY CHACHA WITH MORE THAN 150MB SPACE. :(
[HTC ChaCha] faizkalwar:
try to create ext2 partition after installation. because during installation CWM by default format SD ext partition and convert ext2 partition to ext3 partition (you select option to format SD ext or not but it 'll format SD ext partition during ROM installation). you can check it in (Mini Tool Partition Wizard) it 'll show 2nd partition as ext3 after ROM installation .. So try to convert ext3 to ext2(Mini Tool Partition Wizard) after ROM installation then open terminal in your mobile or use adb shell enter command a2sd check then a2sd reinstall.. i had same problem but solved it by this method now its working perfectly..

---------- Post added at 01:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 AM ----------

I think stock ROM does not support ext2 partition. but custom ROM are available that based on stock ROM and support a2sd and ext2 or ext3 partitions.

Can anybody confirms that Does stock rom support EXT2 partition.?
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
That's a negative. Stock ROM does not have support for extended partitions at all.

Latest SuperOSR released has an updated kernel which includes ext partitions support.
[HTC ChaCha] r2b2:
I'm using a modified stock ROM (removed a few useless APKs). On one ChaCha I have Link2SD working with an EXT3 partition, but with another it refuses to work.

The software version I'm using is 1.57 (the HTCdev one). Does this means that this version supports EXT2/3?
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Valid and working properly on latest SuperOSR build. Screenshot attached.
[HTC ChaCha] faizkalwar:
its not about ROM but kernel and official htc kernel only support ext2. no supprt for ext3 and ext4
[HTC ChaCha] e.japonica:
To enable a2sd, after flashing the ROM go to market & download terminal emulator.

Follow instruction below:

Key in:

su

a2sd check

a2sd reinstall

Phone will reboot once.

su

a2sd check

a2sd zipalign

a2sd cachesd

Phone will reboot again & woot! app2sd+ enabled

If you facing problem for a2sd not detect the ext partition was ext4 but not ext2/ext3, after flashing ROM please re-partition your ext again. This should fix the issue. <<< hope this solve your issue.
[HTC ChaCha] Jorinde123:
Yes! I'd like to know! Because the stupid unstable CM7 is driving me crazy! I don't know what irritates me more, the lack of storage or the lack of a proper working phone...
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
How is CM unstable? What do you mean by that? Do you have any problems with it? FC's?
[HTC ChaCha] Jorinde123:
* Camera doensn't work, I know about the issue of the front camera, not working, but rear one doesn't work either.... (And no other camera app will...)

* No longer WiFi tethering HotSpot.

* Facebook App keeps signing out

* My Gmail no longer syncs (and since I can't delete my gmail account to add it again, i can't do anything about it)
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
1) Up until now you are the only one who reports rear camera not working.

2) There are apps for Wi-Fi tethering.

3) Facebook App - Not using it, unable to find out if the ROM is the issue or other factors.

4) Same as 1) - Have you tried a factory data reset?! That deletes your gmail account.
[HTC ChaCha] Jorinde123:
Well, there you have my point. I don't want to factory reset it every time it doesn't work well... And there is a status bar widget for WiFi tethering, but I can't configure it...

Oh! And I remebered another weird thing. When my phone turns off due low battery, and I charge it. I can't turn the phone on. The LED turn on, orange. And if I disconnect the charger, the LED stays on, and the phone doesn't do anything. I have to remove the battery to be able to turn on my phone...

Edit:

Sorry for being a bit harsh about CM7 not working well and all. Of course I want to put some effort in it to make it work right. It's just... Well I want a super-duper-brilliant working phone! :) I'm just one lucky cookie to be a trouble shooter, when it comes to being the one GETTING the troubles! I hope you can do something with those issues, let me know if you need more info or logs or whatever!
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Even the stock rom needs factory resets once every 3-4 months at least. There is no perfect android, and there will never be one.

That seems to be a CWM issue. It has nothing to do with any ROM.

You are not being harsh at all, but you seem to have issues that no one else is experiencing. Without any logs or other tests and just yelling "CM build is unstable" won't help anyone, especially you.

Apart from full data wipe, cache wipe, dalvik-cache and reinstall the latest CM build I can't suggest anything else. Maybe trying a different radio but that shouldn't affect camera. Are you sure you performed the above mentioned wipes before flashing CM? + This discussion needs to be moved there; this topic is about something else.
[HTC ChaCha] lilila:
Thanks, worked for me perfectly.
[HTC ChaCha] odvala:
There are some issues with dta2sd on stock roms. You need to repartition sd card before the first boot. Here is how I am doing things:

1. Backup all files from sd card

2. Put rom and dta2sd zip on sd card

3. Flash rom and dta2sd

4. Partition sd card from recovery

5. Then reboot

And dta2sd works like a charm

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SysAdmNj:
So I pre-ordered last night at my local at&t store. I am excited as before I went to my at&t store I passed by best buy to hold the dummy model they have. Its big but I was still able to thumb the other side of the device with one hand. I also played with the samsung player which has a 5" screen and runs android but I guess thats just suppose to be an mp3 player, either way it looked similar to the note and it looked great. I can imagine how good the note's display will look.

The only thing right now that is bugging me a little is getting by with no led notification. Can you guys suggest how to get over that little led light that will no longer be on the note? Or how you guys with devices with no led lights are coping?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bkeaver:
there is a app that you can get and its free called no led.. My wife had the same issue as she was used to a led light and when she got her samsung she missed it.. works well
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SysAdmNj:
But that requires your screen to turn on so basically killing the battery right? I know some samsung devices have that bln mod but not sure how well that works and if its even compatible with the lte note. Any led camera flash apps maybe?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bkeaver:
no it puts a small icon that lights up on your screen and bounces around. the rest of your screen is dark.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LiquidArrogance:
Camera flash? For notifications? Seems to me that would kill that battery way faster than 64 pixels floating around the screen . . .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] vaxheadroom:
What does it really mean to "turn on the screen" for the Samsung AMOLED displays? LCD-based displays need a backlight, even when displaying a single pixel. But turning on just a few LED pixels on a Samsung AMOLED display is probably a very low power operation, since only active pixels should need to be powered, and since there is no backlight.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kiltedthrower:
I haven't had an LED notification for years. And I am thankful that I don't. I remember on BB when I had the LED notification, I was constantly looking at my phone to see if the light was beeping. Without it, I'm so much less obsessed with seeing if I have that stupid blinking light.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SysAdmNj:
@bkeaver - I thought it required the screen to be on

@LiquidArrogance - I've seen the iphone do it like that with a case :)

@vaxheadroom - Then I definitely am not sure the difference between lcd and AMOLED displays

@kiltedthrower - I'm still obsessed no thanks to the blackberry days
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bkeaver:
here is a link to the app.... should give you a idea of how it works and what it looks like

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] emcnelly:
Once a kernel is developed that supports bln which I imagine will be fairly quickly, it will be available. And it works very well, I use it on my captivate all you have to do is install the bln supporting kernel, download the app, set up what apps turn on the leds and you're done.

[Motorola Photon 4G] stanislavshulgin:
Hello, I'm using Photon 4G with CM7.2, but I don't like the lockscreen in it, and other lockscreens too (Go locker etc.), most of all I loved the stock moto lockscreen. Is it possible to revert to it? Thanks
[Motorola Photon 4G] roundeye1987:
I'd recommend giving Milocker a try. It basically ports all off MIUI's lock screens to any other phone, and I've seen home created Blur lock screens in there that look pretty damn good.

[Motorola Photon 4G] w0lf215:
Widget locker is an app for that I used to use and it let me create one just like moto and then add other things I wanted
[Motorola Photon 4G] KSmithInNY:
CM comes with a couple different lock screen options included. Have you changed them in menu>settings>cyanogenmod settings> somewhere in one of the options (sorry, don't run CM so I don't know the exact path )?

Id check out the ones that are already integrated into the rom before installing a 3rd party lockscreen. The installable options aren't terrible but I've experienced consistency issues while testing and some don't play well with security set on the phone.

Regarding if moto lock screen can run on that rom in short, no. The lock screen isn't just an apk that can be pushed, and if it were I could guarantee there would be a dependency on the framework. That's how HTC used to keep people from jacking their lock screen back in the day. Now its all integrated tightly into the framework (or was it systemui now?) so you could design a theme for your lock screen that's moto inspired if you felt like playing with some apks and pngs. The Motorola lock screen isn't a far departure from being a themed stock lock so really there would be no smali work involved. Plug and play images, flash, change some more, flash .... repeat until happy.
[Motorola Photon 4G] pgriffinsc:
I think youll be extremely happy with Widget Locker and CM7 together. Thats the combo i ran on my Evo before i got my Mopho. You can turn off the lock screen in CM7,and just run WL. Seamless!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ufkal:
Hello Community. My dear wife is thinking about getting me the Nexus for my birthday. I am currently rocking the Revolution and generally speaking I love it!! But I miss the pure Android experience...

I have a couple of questions before buying and I hope this is the type of community that will take a couple of moments to answer them..

1. Will the android wi-fi tether work with this phone? (from here: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/)

2. Any problems with not having an external SD card?

Ok, really those are my only real questions. I'd take any feed back about personal performance and negatives and positives. Specificially to the verizion CDMA version of the phone.

(I have started reading through the forums, but there are 101 pages and I can't read that fast, I am working on it.)

Thanks in advance and I look forward to participating in this very busy community
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
I haven't tested the tether but I actually like not having an SD card. It should be included but only using one storage source is handy and makes everything easier to maintain.

The LTE has 32gb. That's more then my 16gb SD I used to use... and more then enough. Tether works but I'm not sure about that specific one.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
1. Yes it will work, I have tried it out multiple times and have no problems connecting to multiple devices with 10+ Mb's.

2. Not really, as the other poster said it is kind of nice to not have to worry about it but coming from my old phone was kind of a pain being that I had to move everything to my computer then over to my Nexus but that is my only gripe.

You will love this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] white2003:
1. It works for me as well.

2. I thought I would hate it but I actually like it. It is nice when my phone is plugged into my computer that my phone can still access what is stored on the "SD card" partition. It was always annoying on the Droid X to wait for it to get access to everything again or when someone called and my ringtones wouldn't play. After I do a nandroid backup, I copy it to my computer just in case I somehow wiped that partition.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] z06mike:
My wife had the Revolution and I upgraded her to a Razr. 2 days ago she dropped the Razr in the toilet (we are hoping it will come back to life) and had to revert to using the Revo. She hates it! The Nexus would be a MASSIVE step up. You will not be disappointed!!
