[Droid 2 General] MissionImprobable:
No. When you turn the D2 back on just skip the activation step that has you dial *228
[Droid 2 General] Don_Don:
When I turn phone on the only 2 things it allows me to do is an emergency call or touch the green droid on the screen. When I touch the green Droid it automatically dials (doesn't even show me the number) and I have no opportunity to skip entering my number. Only problem is that my only number is on my everyday phone. I hope by the additional info added someone can help me to turn phone on.

Worse case scenario is that I can deactivate my good phone then run through the activation only to turn my good phone back on. Oh well I was hoping to play around with a new rom tonight.

bypass startup

Touch the four corners of the screen

Top left

then top right

then bottom right

them bottom left

Then touch the green droid

This will bypass the auto dial

Thank You that worked great! All I need to do now is read a bit to figure out which way for root and which rom is best for me.

[Droid 2 General] Don_Don:
Ok thanks for the heads up! Can you recommend a rom and or which way to root. I have only been able to read through the development section for a limited amount of time.? I am currently on 2.3.3

Thanks again
[Droid 2 General] [1up]:
If you guys are looking for a newer rom where pretty much everything works without any issues. I would suggest Miui 2.2.10 cause i have been using it for months now and its leagues better than stock. Its prerooted so no need to worry about that. You do have to sbf to stock GB and root it so you can use bootstrap to flash a custom rom. Once its flashed though you're good to go, and i have not run into a single app this rom wont run just as well as stock. After using it for some time now there is no way i would go back to a stock rom. Its a GB rom but there is also a true ICS rom on this site.

[Droid 2 General] MissionImprobable:
I will second the above poster's praise for Galnet MIUI 2.2.10. It is super stable.

As for Rooting, just use Pete's One Click Tool:

[Droid 2 General] Don_Don:
Hello all, hopefully someone could help a guy out. So last night I rooted my DROID 2 using Petes one click tool and it was successful. I had installed Bootstrap for D2 and then wiped data, dalvik,and cache then flashed Miui 2.2.? From sd and all looked like it was going well until the phone rebooted. When the phone came back on it now just keeps cycling through the boot animation.

Could someone please help me out I am completely clueless as what to do next.

Thanks in Advance
[Droid 2 General] sd_shadow:
try wiping data again

when you wipe delvik, it can take a couple of mins to boot, the first time
[Droid 2 General] MissionImprobable:
Word. It can actually take up to 10 minutes for a first boot.
[Droid 2 General] Don_Don:
Thanks for the help.. It took me a few but remembered how to get back to bootloader. I pulled the battery then power and volume down to get back. I wiped data, cache, and dalvik reflashed the rom and now have Miui on my D2. It did take a few minutes for the initial boot up. Since this is an extra phone I plan to setup and use it mainly as a mp3 and streaming music player for in garage/outside.

Just wanted to say thanks again!!!

Start by reading the forum rules. Q&A is not permitted in this sub-forum; there's an entire one dedicated to that.

Next, educate yourself on hexadecimal numbers and 32-bit ARGB color representations.

Finally, either sit down to do some fairly boring math, or use a tool (such as the Win7 or WP7 calculator in Programmer mode) to simplify the actual conversion.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
There's no easy way to upgrade sense to a new sense version like 3.0 without changing ROMs. There's too much involved making a newer sense version work on on the Incredible that it's not advisable to even try making a flashable zip that will upgrade just sense. Sense is too engrained in the ROMs that an update won't work.

I've been ditzing with a buddies phone for almost 3 hours now using every method I can think of to get this thing to root and theyre all failing. Short synopsis on each:

Pete's moto tools 1.07: fails on final step but log shows "permission denied" on each step

1-2-3 method: fails after running ./rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin by closing (or crashing) adb interface. have to reboot the computer to get any devices at all and it shows as "offline"

rageagainsttecage ON THE PHONE USING TERMINAL: crashes after ./rage*.bin, cannot re-open terminal without force-close unless I uninstall terminal and reinstall, and I'm back to square 1

z4root: fails, no idea why, crashes similarly to above method. phone must be rebooted or z4root reinstalled to be able to run again without FC

I'm about to try superoneclick but I'm not optimistic. Any ideas?

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] rawfa:
I´ve just started playing around with the Galaxy Tab 7.7 and it surprised me very much that when I tried to open a MOV file and it told me no application was found to play it. I´ve instantly installed moboplay (which I use all the time on my GS2) and it could not play it either. The only time I could play it was when I clicked over the file and selected the "soft decode" option. Is this standard? It kind of sucks having to do this all the time.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] TeeeJaay:
have it set to automatically switch to software decoding so you don't have to manually do it yourself

also try DicePlayer and MXVideoPlayer they are the two i find great in playing videos
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] rawfa:
How do I set it to do this automatically?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] Manipur:
Long click on the .mov file, and select open as video. After that options to play with all the media players installed in your device will pop up. Click the set a default box and choose your preferred player. Next time you don't have to go through the while process again.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] rawfa:
I know how yo set an app to default, I wnt to know how to sey auto soft decode to default.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] BAD_BOY_KIEV:
Software Decode to default is always bad, cause it results loading your CPU pretty bad, hardware on contrary uses some low level installed drivers and GPU, thus you get flawless playback + free CPU. I have Dice player + Solid Explorer combo = best of the best, imo. Maybe you can try them?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] Manipur:
Exactly. ..setting your media to run in sw mode by default is not a good idea. You'll see that high quality videos begins to lag and stutter. Its always a good idea to keep the settings in hw mode. Dice player and vplayer gives you the option to run your media in either hw or sw mode by default in settings. You can check it out yourself. Sometimes when you play a .mkv file, you might have to switch to sw mode otherwise audio doesn't come out.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] alibukhamsin:
I used MXplayer...it plays .mov perfectly (and every other format i threw in it perfectly)..it's free, light and you can add subtitle, change screen size quickly by tabbing the screen and it can scan your SD card and bring all files directly :).

[Motorola Droid 3] haztv:
So I realize Google and android in general doesn't really care for those of us with phones that have physical keyboards but what ever happened to the quick Launch app shortcuts you could set in froyo and gingerbread? Possibly even since the eclair days under the applications section there was an option to set every key on your physical keyboard to launch an app basically making them all their own hot keys in a sense. Now with the new settings layout in ics there is no applications tab just the manage apps section but I can't seem to find the old quick Launch feature anywhere on any ics rom but the functionality is still there (hold search button and Press e for email or c for calculator, m for maps and such) which leads me to believe you can still do it just where the hell is the tab to set which app you want to launch to each key? Am I the only one who used these? Lol I posted a pic to show what I'm talking about... Sorry for the rant and bad punctuation but any info would be appreciated. Thanks

Nevermind I figured out a workaround via Google. Pain in the ass there has to be a way to unhide it but if anyone is interested the steps I took were...

1. Must be using either nova or apex launcher

2. Long press on home screen and select shortcuts

3. Select activities (for whichever launcher you are using nova or apex)

4. Scroll down and select settings

5. Scroll down and select Quick Launch (the first one) and it should create the shortcut icon on your desktop

The shortcut takes you to the old quick Launch menu that allows you to assign the keys but I don't know where Google hid it thru the regular menu. Hope this helps anyone as much as it's gonna help me if not then what the hell you read it for? Lol
