Yo. Don't go formatting stuff unless Instructed to.

And also have a rom ready if you do this. If you would like a place where all the roms are I'll send you a link.

Are you a CDMA sprint or Verizon???

Or a GSM???
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jookdakang23:
I have longed used auto task killers since i bought my first android phone the htc g1. I have always seen the good in them until i recently took Klathmon's advice to not use them. He explained thoroughly to me why they were bad and harmful for our phones. So i took upon myself to test the theory myself and can say that without a task killer my phone has been faster(Weird right?) and the biggest part of all my battery life is amazing!! My Phone Has Now Been Off The charger for 6 hours and i still have 72% battery remaining!!!! i never was able to get more than 9 hours off a single charge while using advanced task killer. So through my testing I can conclude that some task killers are bad! I cant say all are just some. So remove your task killer for yourself and see!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] b_Rich:
Yes, I too at first made this mistake until I read up on it. Here is a link to some very detailed information that further explains why to not use Task Killers:

http://geekfor.me/faq/you-shouldnt-be-using-a-task-killer-with-android/
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokentatortot:
I use Android Assistant and don't have any problems. I think that app/task killers are beneficial, if used properly. I used to be an avid "killer" of all running apps. Using it in that manner, did effect my phone negatively more than positively, but after learning how to use the app properly, it has improved performance/batt life.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MacGyver Jack:
Hey guys

I am running Cm 7.2 at the moment but i dont think the GPS works. On the stock rom when i activated the GPS the little satellite symbol would appear in the notification bar but now (even on 7.1) when i tap the GPS button, no symbol comes up so i was wondering if it worked or not? :D
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazou:
you need to reflash the radio, then the gps should work!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MacGyver Jack:
I have no idea about the radio! its the only part i truly dont understand :p if you could tell me about it, i know people have had 4g by flashing some different radio but i really have no idea!!

Please help meee!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazou:
4g is not supported on our wildfire.

To flash a radio to the device you need to have cwm recovery 2.5 or below. 3+ wont work instantly.

Make sure your phone has enough battery!!

cmw 2.5.X or below:

Just flash the radio

I cant give you the url to a radio file. only by pm if you need it, and cant find it on xda.

cmw 3+

Flash first the attached file (update1) to get temporary cmw 2.5.X

Then flash the radio

Hazou

Hit the thanks if it worked :P

Open an app which actually uses GPS to see the GPS symbol on the status bar. Example - Google Maps. When an app is not using the GPS, no symbol will be shown.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yash_p90:
Which ROM were you using prior to this?

This happened with me once. What worked for me was to flash a Sense-based ROM (RemPuzzle), turn on GPS, open app like Maps, set location, then DO NOT TURN OFF GPS and wipe and flash cm7.2 again. Your GPS will work this time.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MacGyver Jack:

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TF85:
Hello,

The GPS works correctly with CM 7.1 and CM 7.2.

After flashing the CM 7.2 zip file, you have to flash the gapps zip file.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] 2G1J:
I was watching netflix on the bus and all of the sudden my headphones stopped working. I exited out of the app to see that I had an HDMI icon in the notification bar telling be about TV out. I am running the latest pyroice desensed, and was under the assumption I had to install something to get TV out.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Sinfamy:
This has happened before. Firstly TV Out is not HDMI, its through the Mic jack. Second if you play around with the headphone jack and the hole it goes into, make them have wonderful electric sex, it will send a signal to the phone that a video RCA jack was plugged in. It must have dangled around. It happened to me before.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I haven't messed with the ICS happiness floating around yet, but what Sinfamy said about messing with it is sound advice.

It's a 4 pole connection, and if you get dirt, contaminants or even the oils from your skin (fingertips) on the metal contacts it could cause it to short out.

Pull out the headphones or whatever, wipe the connector off with some rubbing alcohol - let it dry!! - and try again.

Also, I don't know what's going on with ICS, but in gingerbread the tv-out signal starts as an HDMI signal. At some point along the way it's down-converted to an analog signal to pass over the RCA physical connections, and I haven't investigated directly where yet. But no question it starts as an HDMI signal.

[Motorola Atrix 2] motocyndi:
I am having the same problem with Contacts and with process com.motorola.contacts force closing that many others are having. I had rooted as well as uninstalled bloatware (instead of freezing, yes, I know!). Tried unrooting, reinstalling Yahoo and AT&T apps as suggested, factory resets, everything. Contacts still acts the same; that is, I can get to it but can't edit individual contacts nor get to Contacts Storage. I think it must have something to do with AT&T Address Book, which won't reinstall (says not supported but was there before).

At this point I just want to return Atrix 2 to its stock, 2.3.6 configuration and start all over. Can anyone help me, or is that not "out" yet?
[Motorola Atrix 2] bmbanker:
Follow the instructions on flashing the 2.3.5 FXZ listed here (the beginner's guide) and then use the OTA update to get to 2.3.6. Next time make a CWM backup before you try any ROMs! It is inevitable that you'll eventually get stuck in some sort of boot loop.
[Motorola Atrix 2] motocyndi:
I will try that. It looks pretty complicated...I'll be studying for awhile!
[Motorola Atrix 2] bmbanker:
It's not hard at all! Just follow the instructions listed EXACTLY and make sure that your battery is well charged before you do this -- if it dies during the middle of something like this, you could run into a tricky problem.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
It's alot easier than it sounds....and im no pro. I was able to successfully flash 2.3.5 to mine that way the first time around following the instructions in the noob thread.

Atrix 2//RebelROM//Tapatalk 2
[Motorola Atrix 2] psdroid:
so let me get this straight....

I had 2.3.5 rooted. I accepted the OTA update to 2.3.6, so naturally, it un-rooted me, although the superuser is still there. I tried the one click method for 2.3.6 after it came out, as I am a total NOOB and was afraid to try it and screw things up. That doesn't work. I tried to unroot it using the same method. Also didn't work. The superuser is still there and denying permissions.

Soooooooo, I have decided to do the FXZ method in the in the noob/general forum. I'm still unclear and afraid about how to do it. Am I supposed to go through the first 11 steps, then do the "replace" step that is added as a note? Speaking of the added note. It says to "move all the the items in it to the stock fxz". The "stock FXZ" is what i downloaded and did in step 1-11, right? I have searched the forums and this was the best place I could see to ask. Sorry for my extreme NOOBness.

Thanks in advance for helping, or just taking the timpe to read my post!
[Motorola Atrix 2] DarkJatrix:
Unzip the stock fxz and copy the extra files into it. Accept any error it may give you. The open rsd and click the "..." Button and find the fxc that you modified and then hook your phone up in Detroit and hit the start button. Should be golden after

Running AtrixBlaze 3 on my Atrix 2. :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] motocyndi:
Everything did work like a charm finally; thank you so much for being so helpful, everyone! I feel a little less nooby now.
[Motorola Atrix 2] psdroid:
Thanks!!!

Downloading FXZ as we speak. i will give an update as soon as I try it out! Thanks again.:D
[Motorola Atrix 2] psdroid:
IT WORKED!!!!

As the title states, it worked. I downloaded the fxz, replaced the files, ran it, the re-rooted after everything came back up. Then I did the OTA rootkeeper procedure and now I am about to takt the ota. Will let you know if anything goes wrong after that.:D Thanks again for all the help and encouragement.
[Motorola Atrix 2] DarkJatrix:
Why not just take the ota then root it with motto fail one click?
[Motorola Atrix 2] psdroid:
I just wanted to be sure that I wouldn't lose root again if I ever get another ota. If the motto fail incorporates that, I wasn't aware.

So apparently my battery drain/overheat problem has to do with a defective phone

so since its only been 2 weeks since I had this phone. I'm going to try and

exchange it for a new one and see I still have the issues.

I thought it was more of the new radio/firmware problem but from reading from

what some devs says its a bad phone.

Hello everyone,

First: I am new to here so if I make mistakes please tell me, not yell :)

Ok,

I have installed GingerDX v23b on my Xperia X8 device (The last version developed by DX - don't remember his username) and was very happy with it. but I wanted the dual touch. It didn't work the way I wanted it to antil I've found a thread in FXP (a Israeli forum) which guided the installation of GingerDX v24 and dual touch.

I followed the instructions. I installed xRecovery and after that the DualTouch file.

AKA: htt p:// www .mediaf ire.com /?w5su i27ktb 6icj9

Installed the dualtouch, got back to the xRecovery main menu and pressed reboot.

Now my phone is stuck on the Sony Ericsson logo and I have no idea what to do.

So... I need help ASAP!!

Thanks in advanced,

Namro

[XPERIA X8 General] Shimizux:
Hello,

erm,I think u should unlock the bootloader? before installing any costum Rom. and any kernel (ROM require costume kernel). ROM GingerDX v23b use stock kernel? i suggest u read carefully the thread, maybe u missed something. try reflash kernel (if u already unlock bootloader) or repair with SEUS and start over again. it happend to me when i flash costum rom that need costum kernel. or maybe u need to flash it with CWM, not xRecovery?

Do enlighten me if im wrong. :)

Peace,
[XPERIA X8 General] tharaka:
you dont need to change the kernel to install Ginger DX.

Is the recovery coming on when you press the back key at the logo?

If so, you can reflash the ROM.

if not, use the flashtool to burn a new firmware or you might even be able to connect the phone to SEUS and flash the stock firmware onto the phone.

i dont think you phone is bricked. it might be a software error.

cool down and read the "what you should do if you brick the phone" thread. :D
[XPERIA X8 General] WhatWhatInTheButt:
Try this THREAD first.

If it doesn't work, you'll have to restore your X8 to it's original state. Follow these instructions STEP BY STEP:

- On your PC, uninstall Sony PC Companion

- Restart your PC

- Reinstall Sony PC Companion by downloading it from here

- Turn off the phone, and unplug it from the PC

- Turn on Sony PC Companion on your PC

- In PC Companion, enter the Support Zone tab

- Go to Update Phone Software

A window will pop out, saying that it cannot find your phone

- Click on Fix Phone

- Click on Continue

A window will pop out, saying that you will lose all your data

- TICK the BOX

- Click on continue

An update process will began.

Wait for it to show a window with all the SONY mobile phones

- Find your phone (X8)

- Click on the phone.

Now all you have to do is follow the on-screen instructions. It will tell you to hold the back button and plug your turned-off X8 to the PC, then it will erase everything, and download the original 2.1 ROM to your X8.
[XPERIA X8 General] TheSpaceManatee:
You can try using flashtool. First reflash your kernel. Then try to flash the rom again using flashtool.
