[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
The version of Flashtool should actually be visible in the .exe of the Installer (since yours doesn't even start up to get to the version number).

Example:

flashtool-0.2.9.1-windows.exe

flashtool-0.5.3.0-windows.exe

flashtool-0.6.7.0-windows.exe

This would only apply if you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7. Does not apply to Windows XP at all.

Hmmm... seems it either has a problem finding it's x10flasher.jar or there's something wrong with the Java Runtime installation.

Question: To where did you put the Flashtool folder?

Flashtool 0.2.9.1 (and 0.3.x.x, I think) had a problem when it was installed/unpacked into a folder where the path to the Flashtool directory contained a space.

Example:

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Flashtool

Won't work, there are spaces in the path.

C:\Flashtool

Will work as there's not a single space in the path.

In short - if the Flashtool directory is inside of "C:\Program Files" or in C:\Documents and Settings\<your_username> or some other subfolder try moving it into the root of your hard drive ... C:\Flashtool

If it still doesn't work try...

Open the Add/Remove Software panel (START -> Control Panel -> Add/Remove Software) and uninstall ALL the Java Runtimes you may have installed ("Updating" Java doesn't replace the currently installed one but just slap the new one onto your hard drive - if you "updated", for example, five releases you have 5 JRE's installed). Then reboot and install Java JRE 6u31 or JRE 7u3 and try again.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zack19:
thank's BJay for your help, i moved flashtool to root folder and uninstalled java re installed java6 but still getting the same error messages.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bolussimo:
Maybe just try other version of flashtool. I'm using 0.2.9.1 and it works great :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
Weird, but ok ...

- Any chance your user account does not have Administrative rights for whatever reason I can't imagine?

- You're on Windows XP with Service Pack 3 + all Windows updates issued up till today?

- If you have a virus scanner installed, did you try to temporarily disable the virus scanner?

And most importantly...

- Which version of Flashtool did you install?

If you click the link in my signature you will find a Flashtool folder - in there is a collection of different Flashtool versions. Try, as suggested above, Flashtool 0.2.9.1 - that one should be "old" enough to work on XP.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irfaniskandar:
i have same problem! :(:(
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zack19:
hi B.Jay installed FT0.2.9.1 and it's working it recognises my device as E15 and not X8 is this normal in this version also in Flash there are no .ftf files do they have to be downloaded first. Thanks for your time.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
Yes, Flashtool identified the X8 correctly.

The full identification of the X8 would be:

X8 E15i or X8 E15a

The "i" and "a" only denotes for what kind of mobile network (the frequencies that get used) the phone is prepared.

To keep it brief:

i == European GSM/UMTS mobile network standard

a == Northern American GSM/UMTS mobile network standard

That little letter is actually of great importance if you ever need to flash the Baseband. Flashing the wrong Baseband means that your phone won't be able to connect to the mobile network - in which case you then need to re-flash the correct Baseband .ftf

Yes, you need to download the .ftf file, or files, you want to flash and copy it into C:\Flashtool\Firmwares

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyanv:
Hi all..I recently flashed XLA6 (russian) my original ROM was XKL3 using CWM and rooted.. After that i was experimenting with germay, again with Indian DDL5 and again XKL3 and finally settled with XLA6. After doing all these.. I noticed that my gallery shows empty even though i have images and videos in my built memory. Picture gallery shows only bluetooth recieved files not copied from PC files. What could be the reason?

Please apologize if this was discussed earlier. I couldn't find similar thread like this..oz column shows only five similar threads.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WoodpeckerS:
A tip is to use another gallery than the one provided with the Stock. Quick gallery on the market works very well and is immensely quicker especially if you have a lot of pictures. To increase your speed on the external SD-card (if you have one), you may try SD-Boost from the market.

Wanted to ask the same. Also what's ideal setcpu temperature profile?

When I'm outdoors temperature rises to 44°c in fifteen-twenty minutes (when using G maps/opera mobile). I have set fail safe alert on 44°c.

Is it safe to set 50°c alert?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeromepearce:
I run between 40 & 50C pretty much all the time. It is summer here in Oz (but not that warm this year), but I am not sure how much difference that makes.

I am using the abyss kernel with the abyss governor. If I use other governors it can go much hotter, so I do not. With stock kernel it was more like 10C lower.

at 40 to 50C all seems well (bear in mind this is the battery), and usually I get less battery drain than the stock kernel. It rarely feels hot, so I am not sure how accurate that figure is.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brahmaji:
I am having lot of trouble installing Rom on my Epic 4g touch. I am not sure where I am doing wrong.

Here are the steps i followed to install a new rom

1) Installed SPH-D710.EL29_CL852097_ROOTED-oc-sfx.exe (EL29)

2)E4gtAuto Root options C and L (CWM+ Rouge)

3)Calkulins format all * also did cwm wipe

-- Now my phone is stuck at Samsung Galaxy S screen but I am able to go to download mode and/ cwm

4)Copied Calkulin\'s_E4GT_ROM_v2.8.1.zip

--When i reboot it My phone is stuck at Samsung Galaxy S 2 screen.

What ever ROM I install it just gets stuck Samsung galaxy S2 Screen

Rom's I tried

1)Calkulin

2) Unamed Rom

3)ICS leaked Rom.

Guys I really appreciate your help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
Re download the ROM and this time wipe without using the format all zip, install the ROM. If it still wont work, reinstall the recovery through Odin, that may be your problem.

1 wipe data, system, cache

2 install .zip (ROM) from sd

3 reboot.

Sounds like from your post your skipping step 2
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brahmaji:
Am i still missing something

1) Restored to pre rooted stock based on EL29 rom

2)Flashed Rouge recovery using ODIN (difference i see between auto root and ODIN based flash is I see yellow triangle)

3)Downloaded Unnamed Rom

4)Wipe (Factory reset, System,Cache)

5)Install zip from SD card(external card)

Again it stucks on Samsung Galaxy S2 screen with yellow triangle.

Thanks for your help.

update: I am able to flash Calkulin but not any other ROM
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AsinX:
Try wiping cache and data after the new ROM install. So wipe, install, wipe, reboot.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Choopeh:
Just yesterday I have purchased the galaxy tab 10.1, it worked just fine for the entire day, and I have left it to charge throughout the night, I have unplugged it and let it lie there for a while in the morning, when I came back to it it was off, and wouldn't turn on, I have read about turning it on by holding power button + volume buttons, and touching the screen while holding the power button, and eventually I did manage to get it to power up, but as soon as I touch the tablet and move it ever so slightly, it turns off. Why does this keep happening?

Also, it appears that when the tablet is connected to the wall charger, it works fine and I can move it around and turn it on, yet as soon as I unplug it it turns off and starts messing up again.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] brieuwers:
Return your tab. Its broken.

[Android Themes] Uppy:
Okay, I've been working on a Viber style theme on behalf of my girlfriend using gosmstheme.goforandroid.com but it just doesnt want to work properly, often showing boxes around my speech bubbles or whatever.

Anyway I was wondering if anyone could quickly do it? It's driving me crazy, its basically the iphone theme built into gosms with a purple bar instead of a blue bar and a pure white background.

If no one is willing to do it, could someone tell me where on my phone the gosms themes are stored so i can edit it myself cos the online theme maker currently has lots of bugs.

Heres actual Viber:

The online theme maker misses exactly 1 row of pixels off the top of the purple top bar and shows a dark border around my bubble images making it incredibly ugly.

Can anyone help? I can upload the resources I made if anyone is interested in helping.
[Android Themes] Uppy:
Heres how it looks so far. crap, in other words.

see? the png files become distorted as the are stretched and the boxes dont match up well. heres the resources if anyone else wants to try.

Body:

Recieved:

Top Bar:

Anyone care to help?
[Android Themes] ock:
I'm not sure if it can use 9patch files, which allows images to be resized without distortion. Google it up for more info and how to create them.

Also, remove the white backgrounds in the speech bubbles, and perhaps add some space around them
[Android Themes] Uppy:
Thanks for the reply, I tried removing the white background but it didnt work (it showed up as light grey for some reason). I'll look into the 9patch files. Cheers.
[Android Themes] ecwpa:
Super short answer:

Edit: Those images were suppossed to have black lines on the borders, not sure what happened there xP

Use thoses as guides. Open them directly with Photoshop or other tool. Do not copy/paste. That could mess with the transparent background.

Short answer:

Those bubbles are way to near to the borders, you need to leave some space in there. As ock said, you should probabbly use draw9 too. In short it's a special kind of png images (9.png) that have a tiny transparent 1 pixel border which can be filled with black if you want to stretch them verticaly or horizontaly.

Long answer:

You could try the GOSMS Theme maker here http://gosms.goforandroid.com/?p=235, you need Java for that.

Just run ThemeTool.bat, configure what you want and then apply. This is going to generate a file called _signed.apk if I remember correctly.

Then you can use apk_manager to decompile it, all you need to do is place the apk (which you can rename) into the "place-apk-here-for-modding" subfolder and then run Script.bat.

That's going to show you a menu, the option you need to pick is 22 for choosing your project. And then 9 to decompile. When you pick 9, its going to make a subfolder in "projects" named "_signed.apk" or whatever you called it. You can access that folder and edit every single image in there.

The images you're looking for are inside "\res\drawable-hdpi", the names are

msgbox_other.9.png

msgbox_other_selected.9.png

msgbox_self.9.png

msgbox_self_selected.9.png

Those kind of files are very sensitive, the borders need to be transparent or black, if they're not, the project wont compile until you fix it. So, make backups a edit carefully.

Thanks dude.
[HTC Desire S] suku_patel_22:
What should I get

A 16 Gb class 10 at 1500 INR

or a 32 Gb Class 6 at 1650 INR

What do you guys suggest...?

Sadly 32 Gb class 10 is not available in India
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Do you feel the need to have 32gb, ir is 16gb plenty for you?

Sometimes class 6 outperforms class 10 in test
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
You're not purchasing nand-flash my friend. It will still be an sd card, and the read-write speed for flash memory on phones does not impact performance so much that you'll actually notice the difference in real life. The Class of a card has more significant implications in devices like high-end DSLR digital cameras shooting in data intensive RAW format at >18 Megapixel resolution setting in burst mode, or full 1080p video at 60fps, or even super slo-mo videos taken at speeds like 15000fps! Those are the extreme situations where you'll require a higher speed card.

If i were you, i'd focus less on the class, and go for the deal where i'm getting 16GB of extra memory at only Rs. 150 more! Sounds like a much better deal to me...
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Class speeds do help with tasks though, such as HD Recording. It also can affect the speed your apps load up if they are the sd card. In theory, the higher the class of the card, the faster the card.

But this isn't always the case.
[HTC Desire S] mawad:
Are you sure about this? What I'm sure about is that apps work smoother when on internal mem than on low class SD, but havn't test the difference between classes yet, but I strongly believe there should be a difference, anyhow will check about it
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
You are right about apps working faster when on internal memory... but that is nand-flash, solid state flash memory interfaced directly with the mainboard... and IO read-write speeds here are much faster when compared to that done over an sd-card interface. Built in memory on the Mainboard will always be faster as compared to an sd card, no matter what class of card you use. You cannot infinitely keep increasing the speed of a card just by getting a higher class card. There are hardware bottlenecks that cannot be completely bypassed just by changing the card. Also, while this difference may translate into different numbers on a benchmarking scale in the lab, the conversion to real world performance is something the end user will not be able to appreciate. I say this from experience as i have used a class 10 8GB card previously on two devices (including this DS), and am currently using a Sandisk Class 6 16GB one.... and it's all the same to me...

A class 6 card is very very good as far as phones are concerned. I'm not saying that a higher class card is not better than a lower one - it most definitely is! But this topic was to decide the merits of getting a class 10 16GB versus a class 6 32GB, for very similar price. Given that choice, i think the latter makes more sense both practically and financially - it's a more optimal choice IMO.
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
Recently upgraded from a class 6 16GB to a class 10 32GB. If there is a speed difference I can't detect it. I'd focus on getting the storage space you require. You are not missing anything not having class 10 in the 32GB flavour.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Exactly my point!

Thank you. :)
