[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] commanderdileep:
For those of you who are wondering why Bing Map shows only the "Current Position" button and not the other features like "Search whats near by", "Navigation" etc., just change your Region on your phone to "US" or "UK" or any country other than India or the currently selected one. You can do this by Home->Settings->Region+Language->Region Format. Go to Maps again and you'll find all the features waiting to be used by You.. By doing this, You'll also start getting some "Boxes" on the wall paper when you press the Search Button which will take you to Bing Search. Once you press the Box, you'll notice some interesting information about the wall paper you're seeing...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sure haven't:
Always a great tip. People familiar with the platform are well aware of this, but newer people wouldn't be.

I'm in Canada, so I solved the navigation problem by getting a Garmin GPS unit :D
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henry084:
However in some language interface this cannot be solved by just setting the search language to US/UK, e.g. Chinese (Traditional/Simplified), Korean and some East European languages like Czech, Polish etc.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] condieboy:
Hi there,

I had Cyanogenmod 7 installed on my unbranded Galaxy S2 up until yesterday where I got stuck in a never ending (or at least >30mins) bootloop on the Cyanogenmod splash screen.

Not having access to the internet at that point, I tried a few things including flashing a different kernel onto it using Odin, complete reset, and now it's stuck on the Galaxy S II splash screen.

It is still recognised when I connect it via USB, and can access the download mode and Android system recovery, but to be honest I have no idea how to proceed from here.

Have I bricked it?!

Thanks for any help.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ferx1:
Hello all,

It's been a week flashing ROMs, Radios, Kernels, many combinations and I can't get my Galaxy Nexus to work well. It's picking up AT&T signal sometimes, actually PERFECT reception near home, but then drops 100%

The SIM gets recognized, as the APN settings are correct.

The model I have is the i9250, Engineering model

Thank you for your help, I'm very frustrated
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yiannisthegreek:
Take a look at my thread here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1487239 and read through and try the combinations recommended. I PERSONALLY recommend the FuGuMod Kernel as it fixed my issues. See my signature for current set up. I use the UGKL1 Radio as well.

Please post your results in that thread as well as here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beatsleigher:
Go back to stock 4.0.2 This should work, it normally does... Download it: Here...

It is a zip file, which contains the stock GNex ROM, everything should be back to normal ;)

Give it a try. This set up WORKS for me and the FoxHound ROM is quite nice as well.

So i thought I should share this piece of knowledge with you all [For Noobs only]

"To how to hide a picture/video Folder From Gallery "

I am sure most of you will be knowing this.....but if someone dont know how to... then this is for you ..!

It is quite easy and works without any application...that might eat up your precious internal memory !!

Make sure you put all your pictures, videos, pdf files and important documents in a folder, and name it whatever you want....

Now when you name it make sure to put a "Dot" [.] in front of the folder name ... that's it ..! :eek:

Now during scanning Gallery and other application will skip this folder.......this is the same method that is widely used in Linux Operation System ! :rolleyes:

Cheers....now store whatever you want to store in your phone.. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Aspire:
you could also create an empty file named .nomedia inside that folder...
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] sid_rangra:
File name does't matter.... Dot [.] is the only thing which matters..!!
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Deshabilitado:
you can use keep safe app u can hide vids and picture with it, the app even change the format of the pic/vid so even if u open your memory on pc it shows "name of picture.jpg.hid" and u cant see it
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] TanmoyCool:
Hey hey Dide !! Just cut/or copy the folder and paste it to Android/data !! The gallery can't recognise the folder and if u want more privacy the download the file locker app...it's the best light , fast , great app for security

If i helped u don't shy to press thanks !
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Dimamas:
Or download secret box
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] niks4101:
.nomedia file

For those of you who do not know how to make a .nomedia file, just download the attached rar file, extract it. Then copy and paste the .nomedia file into the folder you want to exclude from the gallery. ;)

[Touch Cruise Android Development] miazza:
I have my Polaris NAND flashed with 2.6.25 kernel + casacristo's RLS18 ROM.

I have updated from the market the Superuser but now I get the pessage that SU is not updated and to download the new one (3.0.3.2).

I download the new one , the Root access is granted but at the end more or less I receive this message translated from italian:

...

...

md5sum ... OK

Mod file su 06755... OK

Moving su to its final position ... failed...

TRY Again

I tryed several times but ... no chance to update it... how can I manage ?

miazza
[Touch Cruise Android Development] whitealien:
Here is latest su binaries v3.0.3.2. Download and unzip file. Push this to /system/bin and /system/xbin and then change rights with chmod to 6755. Reboot phone. Done.
[Touch Cruise Android Development] miazza:
Thanks, I will try.

Shall I do via ADB or can I try with RootExplorer for example ?

miazza
[Touch Cruise Android Development] whitealien:
ADB, unless your root explorer can set 6755 rights
[Touch Cruise Android Development] miazza:
It worked great. I managed with RootExplorer but it can be done also via FTP with Filezilla.

[Touch Cruise Android Development] gannick:
file permissions doesn't work

Hi,

I use a HTC wildfire S, who have been rooted, but still in original ROM.

My SU doesn't want to be updated, as described in the first post.

So I downloaded the ZIP, and put SU on the sdcard. With ROOT BROWSER I copy it on /system/bin (SU have been copied automaticaly in /system/xbin).

I tried to change the permissions files, but after reboot, permissions are ---rwxr-x.

I tried with ADB. My phone is well recognised :

C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb devices

adb server is out of date. killing...

* daemon started successfully *

List of devices attached

SH191TR05136 device

When I tried to change permissions file SU :

C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb shell

adb server is out of date. killing...

* daemon started successfully *

$ chmod 6755 /system/bin/su

chmod 6755 /system/bin/su

Unable to chmod /system/bin/su: Read-only file system

$ chmod 6755 /mnt/sdcard/temp/su

chmod 6755 /mnt/sdcard/temp/su

Unable to chmod /mnt/sdcard/temp/su: Operation not permitted

$ chmod 755 /mnt/sdcard/temp/su

chmod 755 /mnt/sdcard/temp/su

Unable to chmod /mnt/sdcard/temp/su: Operation not permitted

$

Do you have an idea ? Thanks by advance, because right now, my phone is not still root...
[Touch Cruise Android Development] miazza:
I have no idea about how ROOT BROWSER works.

With RootExplorer you can tap the su file and keep it untill the permission window appear. At that point you can change all the file rights.

Another way for doing it is via FTP by using SwiFTP.

ciao

miazza
[Touch Cruise Android Development] gannick:
Root browser seems to work the same way.

How can you use FTP with a phone ? It's suppose to use an IP adress. But by USB, there is not... But I will,l try asap.

However, my apps couldn't take root permissions, so I feel bad...
[Touch Cruise Android Development] miazza:
Use SwiFTP (it should be free from the market).

It works over Wireless connection to your internal WLAN and provide you with an FTP address like 192.160.0.x.

While you are connected through FTP client (like Filezilla), you can see your mobile File System as well as your SD.

with a right click on the su file you can change your rights.

But I do not know if it works even if you are not rooted...

miazza
[Touch Cruise Android Development] gannick:
I solved my problem my re-rooting my phone, using http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=672519&d=1312136127.

My phone says that the binary SU was obsolete, but when I tried "AGAIN" to update it, it was successful that time.

Strange, I don't understand why now the update was ok. But all is right.

Thanks everyone for the help.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mandarjoshiin:
Hello Frnds,

As long as my knowledge is concerned, whenever we flash any rom on arc, it just changes the system, data, cache, dalvik cache from the restricted (O.S.) area. so if we by mistake delete folders like config, dev or etc or any other folder, can we restore them back? how does it have impact on the phone?

If you delete important files/folders, you can render your phone onto a bootloop on next reboot.

You can restore the system using fastboot (flash the "system" partition), or using flashtools to flash entire firmware.

Your curiosity is never a pollution, yet sometimes our questions are considered distractions if we don't use our search functions... Good luck with your device.

The issue is that ics was build for a Samsung nexus, not an HTC whatever, and the hardware in our HTC whatever varies from the Samsung, therefore the current drivers do not work.

I've used CWM and Safestrap, both work well. Safestrap gives you the advantage of basically being able to dual boot your system while leaving your primary ROM untouched, good for testing and messing around. I don't personally care for CWM, some people like it, just a matter of preference.

Yeah, the file is huge but once you have the fastboot files you don't have to worry about bricking your phone as long as you can get into AP Fastboot mode.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
I assure you, most WP7 devices can use WLAN and the Marketplace. ROM-specific issues should be raised in ROM-specific threads, not by creating a new thread in the Q&A forum for the entire OS.

There's a section of the HD2 forum that is devoted to WP7 on the HD2. If you want to post a WP7-on-HD2 issue somewhere, that's a better place. There's nothing wrong with asking whether a specific problem you're having with an HD2 ROM is a ROM bug or a universal one, but for something like this the answer to that should be obvious.
