[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WookieFan:
I understand the immediate frustration some of my questions may bring, but believe me, I searched. I spent the entire weekend researching and familiarizing myself with the Dev section, the Q/A section and the General section. These questions were what I was left with - in fact, I read through nearly a year of posts just in the Dev section. I spent time doing general Google searches and more time spent with frustrating xda searches which are generally not very helpful.

FYI, I have rooted & s-offed my DInc, DInc2 and Rezound, and have NVFlashed Honeycomb on my Dell Streak 7, so spending an appropriate amount of time searching is not an issue for me. I hope not to trouble this forum with too many questions in the future.

Fair enough - I will use GParted - it's a tool I should have in any case - thank you. That part of my question primarily had to do with the coded partitions table most devs put on their GB/ICS ROM splash pages - XX/XX/XX - what is the naming convention for the sizes given? eg, /system part./recovery part./???

Having had two other HTC devices, the Wiki is great, but many of the links are broken and many of them do not give basic starter information. In other words, the information is familiar to people who have rooted or are dev'ing for the phone for years, but not to someone new to a Nexus device.

Also, thanks for the link to help ID the version of my device - very much appreciated - I should have looked in the FAQ first.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommert38:
Asking questions is ok, as a matter of fact, that's what this forum is for (partially). It's not (or less) ok if it's a question that has been asked several times before. If you can't find it: learn to search :p This Nexus One forum is 2,5 years old, it's unlikely you'll experience a unique issue.

I would recommend using 4EXT recovery for partitioning your µSD, as it does that well and you can check partition alignment with it. If you do want to use GParted, make sure your fat32 partition is first and your ext partition last. And make sure the ext partition isn't larger than 1536MB. Larger can cause trouble. And don't use a swap partition.

If you read the BlackRose thread, you will find out that partition layout XX/XX/XX is for internal memory only and represent System/Cache/Data partitions. Stock partition layout is 145/95/196, all in MB.

Enjoy your Nexus One!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WookieFan:
Well I am definitely enjoying my N1 - thanks to your help I was able to determine that specific hboots can be flashed to change stock partition layouts.

Even started experimenting with cooking my own ROMs. Really enjoying the "new" phone!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tim5133:
If I connect an HDMI output, I cannot get a GPS lock. I can only get a coarse location lock. The instant I disconnect HDMI, I get a fine gps location lock. The instant I reconnect HDMI, I lose the fine gps location lock. Can anyone else see if their EVO 4G LTE behaves the same way?

When I have an HDMI output connected, if I try to use GPS, the GPS icon blinks forever but navigation never gets a location good enough for turn-by-turn navigation and google maps only gives me a location accurate to something like 500m.
[HTC Titan] sker100:
hello,

I have a doubt that I would like a reply here. I am thinking of buying a HTC 7 PRO or HTC Titan. I know they're two completely different phones, but my question has more to do with the updates. It is anticipated that when updates come out the HTC PRO 7 will be entitled to them? if not is likely to appear here on xda?

Greetings
[HTC Titan] Benkku:
Which updates do you mean exactly?
[HTC Titan] sker100:
like the tango update, or the windows phone 8 ...

I am search because i am divide by android too
[HTC Titan] zeka1974:
Hello sker100

Tango update will arrive this month to all WP equipments.

Regarding WP8 there is no information yet...HTC Titan probably will have that update, like Lumia 900...but it's not a certain yet

Thanks,

Santos
[HTC Titan] GreenGrenadez:
I would go for the Titan

The Titan was recently unlocked by the DFT team and the first custom ROM has been released.

By this I emphasize 1st. I'm running it and I know that soon there will be other custom ROMs popping up. A new one just today Dynamics!

The Titan is Fully unlocked whereas I don't believe the 7 has been yet. Believe me, you will not enjoy it fully unless it is fully unlocked.

Hope this helps,

Grenadez
[HTC Titan] saeed_professional:
I'm agree.

After DFT Fully-Unlocked the Titan , I don't think any phone (yet) can compete this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcbwaters3:
I'm pretty excited . Just ordered my galaxy nexus from the play store. I've been stuck using a droid x2 since last year on Verizon and I'm just so sick of it being so locked down. There is an alpha ics from out for it now but its buggy.

What's the first things I should do when I get it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cymru:
Send a text?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Herman76:
Insert SIM card would be my first action though.

Or even better, charge it for 6 hours then turn it on :)

First thing i'd do was to just plainly turn it on and use it stock unrooted unlocked.

Though bear in mind that if you want to root it later you have to unlock bootloader which will wipe your phone (yes pictures and all other stuff stored).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rayiskon:
Whatever u do, just don't make one of those unboxing videos.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] najaboy:
I assume you plan to activate it on another carrier? You mentioned that you're on Verizon, but it's not going to be possible to activate your new GN on Big Red.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chancy319:
Put in the battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 2000nits:
As pointed out above the GN from the Play store is the GSM version not the CDMA/LTE version. So if you are planning to stay with verizon you will need to return it and get the right phone. If you are planning to go with a different carrier then awesome, I would suggest playing with it stock at least for a little bit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] knucklesmckay:
Here is the info for getting it set up on a GSM carrier http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1455014

I was on Verizon for 9 years myself and decided to dump them since they really don't offer anything different for me, from what I am getting on StraighTalk Att. My biggest mistake was not dumping carriers years ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcbwaters3:
When I said , what should I do first I was referring more towards the rooting/unlocking . I am aware this new galaxy nexus is an unlocked GSM phone. I am dumping Verizon and going the Straight Talk route . I have run a Straight Talk sim in my old Atrix with just some apn mods. I'm guessing my phone should work without any apn changes since its fully unlocked and the sim I ordered from ST is an At&t sim. Should have the new gn weds or Thurs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] knucklesmckay:
Congrats on dumping Verizon. They are just the worst IMO. They really ruin the Android experience will all there medalling with the phones. I can see why Google doesn't particularly like them.

You are going to have to change your APN settings on your Galaxy Nexus to get the ST sim to work. There are instructions on their website.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evilssj4:
first thing would be....root that beast and experiment with it! its a nexus so :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ddgarcia05:
Download mskips tool kit and root it. Then using the same tool kit install touch recovery. After that slap on Romans aokp rom. Use the lean kernel found on rootz. I get better battery life on that kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcbwaters3:
I actually already downloaded and installed the 7.0ToolKit on my laptop. I'm ready for when my Galaxy Nexus gets here. My Straight Talk SIM, case and screen protectors will all be here waiting for me when I get home from work on Thursday. I see me dragging ass at work on Friday.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chancy319:
So, how do you like it so far?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zeke1988:
i would rather get S3 than this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bizdady:
I just ordered one today too. Price is right to be off contract, I dont want to be stuck in a contract ever again. SG3 will be too pricey for me off contract so this will hold over for some time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eksasol:
There are too many thread like this, but its nice to see anyway.

I recommend using a ruler to measure how curved the screen is which isn't so much like the previous Nexus S, but still cool.

After that, unlock the bootloader, install cwm, install AOKP rom and Franco kernel. Just make sure you're flashing the Verizon roms.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biscuitownz:
Touch it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcbwaters3:
Loving my Galaxy Nexus. Unlocked,rooted , cwm touch and I'm running aokp and Franco kernel. Its a big step up from my droid x2 when I had Verizon.

I already tick the usb debugging notify but on notification area it doesnt shows up...
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:

Hello to all

By mistake flashing xperia x10 mini pro(u20) ROM on xperia x10 mini (u10) and now when the device started i can touch the screen. Also i tryed to update though sony update service and says that i have the latest version.

Please help me.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] x10man:
Flash a rom for the mini. Also the mini pro is the U20 and the mini is the E10
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
There is a repair option in SEUS or PC Companion. Keep your phone disconnected from the computer while you choose update and it will give you that repair option. If your provider hasn't meddled with the software too much you should be able to just choose the phone-type, SEUS or PC Companion (whichever you use) will download the appropriate firmware and ask you to connect your phone in flashmode. (ie hold the backbutton with the phone turned off, and plug in the usb-cable)

That should fix it
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tsheka:
try to flashing with flashtool, it much easier

1 you should have the latest version of flashtool

2 you should have the stock rom eclair

3 flashing your phone with that eclair rom..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
Trouble with this method is getting the stock rom for flashtool, all links seem to have been removed from the servers where they were stored, so unless you already had one, or made one yourself, you can't use this method.

The quickest way to drain your battery is removing the battery and tossing it down the drain
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marmalux:
use touch screen intensive

The quiqest way is to play a high demanding touch screen game (like fruit ninja or jewels star) with cpu set to performance. But what are you trying to do is not a solution, quik discharging your battery will not prolong your battery life, you have to let it to fully discharge slowly and then charget it again at low courent (USB port is excelent). If you force your battery to discharge faster, you can seriuosly damage your battery.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adsada arc:
Cheers for your little condensing speech, the battery instructions actually recommend you charge/discharge 5 times from new to get it working fully and at its best. Not that stupid a question and yes pretty obvious batwingnz was joking...

@all thanks for your advice, leaving it on standby the whole day seems to do the trick.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marmalux:
Yes it say`s to discharge and charge 5 times, but not to discharge it as fast as you can... that is wrong. They actaly mean that after 5 full discharges and charges your battery will work as optimal ... that doesen`t mean you can overload the battery. If you do not want my advice it is your choice... but just for your knowledge i have finished a university and i`m working for 8 years now in field of electronics and automatizations....
[HTC Titan] Mondingo:
So I just got the HTC titan II. I love it. Just have a few questions. One is, is the power button on any other a little recessed or down low? I noticed in order to push it and unlock it, I pretty much have to use my fingernail. Not a big deal just annoying. It just doesn't have a good feel when pushing it. Also are the capacitive buttons dimly lit to you.? I'm coming from an android phone. So might have different expectations. Thanks for the help. What's the easiest way to cancel applications? The guy at att store said I have to keep constantly hitting the back button fast. Just seems like there should be an easier way.
[HTC Titan] Mondingo:
Anybody? Just some quick insight.. I would greatly appreciate it.
[HTC Titan] chanakya.wp7:
I do not have any problem with power button. However yes the capacitive button light is bit dim for me. And to cancel(close) the app you have to us back button but if you no mind suspending it the use window button to go to home screen and the current app will be suspended.

About the temperature, there're many ways to see the phone temperature, u can easily download an app to show u that on the market.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmbientMike:
OK, I've had my Desire HD for 18 months and have not had a single problem with it with lots of flashing which I learned a lot through you guys - thank!!! Just got a second-hand Desire for the Mrs as her Wildfire was a sack of s**t and I felt guilty as I recommended it :(

Desire was branded Orange (not a problem as we're on Orange). Came with MUI ROM (which I hate) so I stuck a Sense ROM on it (as she likes it) and it seemed to be working OK except it starting playing up with the mic in calls recently so went back to stock (although I pretty much bricked it using the wrong RUU getting a black screen!) but got that all sorted with the correct RUU and a gold card and now back on a European 2.2 ROM with S-OFF and root thanks to revolutionary and su binary.

What I can't do now is do is apply the OTA ZIP's which seem to check the CID which is set as ORANG001 I think and just fails. I have used the SIMUnlock Tool which reported to work OK although we have no other SIMs in the household other than Orange to check.

So after all that the question I want to ask really is... Is there a way to actually SuperCID the Desire (I sure can't see on)? If not is there a way to get the OTA ZIPs to install from recovery without error'ing? I'm sure I did it with the gold card in there.

Hope you can assist.
