[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nycionx:
Hey there! About 2 months ago I first rooted my HTC Legend and unlocked my bootloader and ugraded it to hboot 1.02

I installed cyanogenmod 7.2 and all worked great. I have CWM 5.0.2.8 installed too. And supertool worked for me (zergling rushes commenced :). I was also able to use eclipse for android to view my root files via the computer.

Well I cant do this anymore. I can only see my root files via the phone using Root Explorer Lite which I downloaded from the play store.

And supertool is giving me errors of read-only file system (see attached screenshot) and says pushing Superuser.apk, so it appears on my phone, I also opened it but I don't know what im supposed to do in there??

I just want to be able to access my root files via my computer. do I have to use eclipse or is there another program? what am I doing wrong here?

ATM im using a workaround where I copy files to my SD card and then using Root Explorer Lite I copy for instance ringtones to the system/media/audio/ringtones folder and that works. But I need a simpler method like drag and dropping files into this folder via my computer. How can I do this?

Thanks for you help!
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazib360:
You can try qtadb.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
Curious as to actually know the need to use supertools when your already using a rooted rom?

I am so sure supertools was only needed to root a non rooted Rom, perhaps supertools stuffed it up....

Have you simply tried just using adb commands from cmd?

Perhaps your issue is the pc itself.

Maybe first is to try this:

Adb devices (proves phone and pc are connected).

Adb shell

Then type "su"

Then type "ls" (this gives file listing on device)

This is assuming you know anything about windows cmd, Adb and stuff like that.

Just some basics to get you started in trying to diagnose.

Hey, why not try restoring a nandroid backup you did earlier, you did do a backup yeah?
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nycionx:
thanks this actually worked! i dont even know how/why but it did

i tried other programs like Droid Explorer or Android Commander but it didnt let me copy files to system/media/ or wutever. and it would say my phone isnt rooted.

i tried the cmd promt as ranger said with adb shell

i did the su and ls thing and it works (displays dir/files list) but thats not the problem, the problem is when i type something like this:

chmod 777 media/

and it says it cant change permissions cuz its read-only file system, the same reason supertool didnt want to work. i wan my zergling rush!!! :D

seriously this is weird:eek:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
I can understand your problems but I ll suggest you the following

Backup all your apps using any backup app like titanium backup. Most important.

Stock ROM has only FAT32 support... if you flash a stock based custom ROM ( if you are in for the stock experience ) then I think you will be in for a better experience .I am suggesting you this cause it will be easier and less time consuming for you.

Custom ROMs and kernels have ext 2 , 3 ,4 support which will help you launch apps faster than a FAT32 partition and there will be less hassles as there are many many scripts like S2e , int2ext+ , mount2sd .

ICS ROMs also give a very good performance and are relatively bug free.

Link2sd to be frank is very buggy. The above mentioned scripts are wayy better.

I am suggesting you this

1) cause stock ROM needs to be modified appropriately to have a good gaming experience and since you are already rooted you can try all this. Try jaggyROM , Ateeqs ROM etc for a good stock based Custom ROM experience.

2) Its painful to the eyes to read so much and the colour doesnt help ( at least for me ).

3) Nevermind
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] abhi_qwerty:
After making this post in this evening,

I formatted my sdcard and merged the partitions, uninstalled the link2sd and rebooted my phone.

I recalled that the applications which were claiming Low Memory Issue like "Poweramp, MX Player, c4droid, etc. " were the one which I have patched by lucky patcher.

I confirmed it by trying to install all the apps which I have patched.

I was correct, all of them claimed low memory issue.

Then I reinstalled Lucky patcher (latest one) v2.9.6 and opened it.

As soon as I opened it, got a notification from lucky patcher which was saying something like "removing the unused ODEX ~ something blah blah "

And then again I tried to install all the patched apps... Thank God they all were installed correctly.

Now I am enjoying my rooted machine by sacrificing Link2sd rather using titanium backup to move all apps to sd.

Thanks God, thanks XDA and my friends.

My journey on XDA starts here....

Problem with Poweramp

I installed poweramp and it is not working. When I open, it shows the first screensh with poweramp logo and then goes off...please help

I really have no idea why it isn't working for you. I shift to v6 pretty often as I use my Salsa as a mere music player. Haven't faced problems yet.....

"I installed poweramp and it is not working. When I open, it shows the first screensh with poweramp logo and then goes off...please help"

means its closed by itself that's all. if an app does this several times in a row then its not compatible. nothing we can do

[HTC Salsa] ajayaldo:
Do you know any other ROM for Salsa

Yeah, Now Playing does not work, and for widgets, just click on screen where we expect the text to be shown in our stock rom, then it will appear. Do you know or have any other ROM which is as quick as this or which does not lag. What I see is slim pa and sense5, both lag when I install applications like FB or whatsapp and use simultaneously(I know it is because of the limitations of our mediocre device). Farrago works charm, but I'm not able to use Poweramp and now playing, I need to use Poweramp. So what I need is a ROM similar to Farrago in performance, and should be able to use poweramp or now playing.
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
If you need to use poweramp, then go back to 2.3.3 roms. CM7/CM10 roms are to heavy to be able to fully use certain apps. As for lag....we are doing everything we can to speed it up.

farrago rom issues can be dealt with by Vigoos, app running like poweramp try another. You say i need to use poweramp, do you? why not try others, MXplayer is very good on the salsa, Winamp is also good, both get laggy when using CM10 based roms but run sweet as on CM& roms.

For the lag on CM10 while installing, its the work load. the kernel that were running is set to a fixed gov. its struggling with the payload that we all want. It is known and being worked on from all angles.

This is CM. Stock parts from HTC don't tend to run that well when applied to any CM rom, if you want this style try using WidgetLocker lock screen replacement from Google play.

In fact it would be really cool if the the ROM had stock apps and stock look with all system tweaks..

Not able to get into Recovery

Hi

I am really really not sure if i can post this question here.

I was trying to flash unofficial-CM7-marvel-nigthly-02_26_2012.img into my Salsa (rooted).

I had CWM 2.* and I was able to get into recovery without any issues.

Then I flashed CWM 5.* version from adb and since then i am not able to go to recovery :(

I remove battery, insert it back, push the volume + power key. it goes to Bootloader screen. From there i can go to Fastboot mode.

But if i try to get into 'Recovery' it does shows a screen 'HTC' and hangs. nothing else.

I reflashed old CWM version from zip using adb and still not use.

please help. I am not even able to reboot into my phone. A white screen with 'HTC' is all i get now :(

thank you so much

Dhananjay
[HTC Salsa] vigoos:
First thing is you are in the wrong place. This thread is only for users of Farrago! ROM for HTC Salsa.

Second is I haven't seen cwmr 2.* yet. I don't know what you have done while updating.

Third is why would you flash a ROM made for wildfire S on Salsa?

If you don't know where to post then let me tell you that there is a very wonderful feature in xda which is called search button. It holds answers to all your queries. In case it doesn't, create a thread in General forum
[HTC Salsa] dhegd:
Thanks!

You have been really helpful LOL

And, I thought someone would understand what a * means, I had CWM 2.5.0.7 or something like that. Since Salsa does not have a official CWM (as far as I know) i had to try some other.
[HTC Salsa] vigoos:
I directly had tried qiulong 4.0.1.4 and then 5.0.2.6. Looks like you have been a very old user.

Anyways try this

I recommend you upgrade your recovery -

In the android folder you created while rooting, there must be a fastboot file.

Download CWMR from salsa development area. This is 5.0.2.6 and it is tested to work well. I use it.

Copy the downloaded recovery.zip to the /android folder.

Extract it once and you will get a file called recovery.img

Enable adb debugging in your phone

Boot into hboot menu

Highlight fast boot option and select it using power button

Connect phone to PC via USB. You will see some thing written in red

Navigate to /android folder and type -

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

After it gets completed pull your phones battery out and reboot

Done

This one is GB sense 2.1. Actually when I was starting I was thinking of pushing to 4.2.2 but it was too unstable. Sense 3.5 was fair but a2sd and of course email app force closing didn't seem to impress me. So stuck back to sense 2.1. This time I'm not using UoT. I'm kanging stuff directly. So I have more control on theme and all. Lockscreen is being kanged.... Music player and launcher will be getting changed as well. Its all coming. I know you people expect some real standard stuff. So this update is gonna take some time so this update is gonna be a pleasant surprise.

[HTC Salsa] vigoos:
Thanks for your commitment Bb, I'm back now but I need some time cause my exams are around the corner and I am an app developer now. Not that I'm gonna leave XDA because I have lots of things to contribute like a Linux 3.0.8 Kernel Source code is ready, required codes for FireFox OS to work on salsa are ready and of course Farrago! [MENTION=5314100]burnsyboo[/MENTION] was doing something for CM10.1 and he seems to be missing.

Let me make a general statement here

However I see not many people are around now a days except for a few and nor am I getting people to compile, so I moved Salsa development a little behind on my priorities. I need people to compile because of my ISP who is damn slow.

If anyone wants to seriously contribute to development by compiling then PM me ASAP because it is not too late for us and maybe we can get stable 4.2 in a few weeks if we start now.

For me personally I have a lot to give back to this old device, but I want that all rooted users benefit from our development. It will be too selfish of me to make stuff for myself and not share it with anyone.

To sum up-

Next farrago will take time because of my time problems,

I need help in compiling for CM and FireFox. If no one is interested then all I can say is things are unfortunate and development is in a quasi static state, hardly any noticeable movement

Compiling things from source is no geek business and is simple, for those newbies who want to know about our progress on CM please go to the Salsa development section where we have a CM7/10/10.1 Development thread and start things off from there.

Let us start things afresh and contribute towards a stable CM and FireFox. If you have sold your salsa then I'm making as thread which will help me know who all are leaving.

Thanks for all the support till now,

Vignesh R Iyer.

[Xperia Z General] _JT:
There is a lot of discussion about the photos taken by the Xperia Z. There seems to be a disproportionally big group that really hates the post processing. That group says all details get smeared out and lost while not really removing that much noise or in some cases even making it worse. There's also a group that thinks the processed images look much better. This can be compared by using burst mode and normal or superior auto for the same picture and then comparing them. So , being a photographic enthusiast (for the interested people: I have an EOS7D with Sigma 17-50 F2.8 OS HSM) have decided to do a test. I have made some pictures in both modes of the same scene and took a 100% crop of it. The differences in post-processing between normal and superior auto were not visible - kind of logical. There have also been some small tests:

Below you can vote per picture which you like best. You can vote by clicking one of the two links under each pair of photo's. Maybe I will take some pics of the same scenes with my dSLR later on to compare them to the results. Note: I have tried to keep it as scientifical as possible;

I have ordered the pictures randomly. It's not like all auto pics are the first one and the second the burst pic.

I have renamed the crops so you can't recognize which picture is burst or normal. So no games here ;)

The poll results will come online later coming week so your answers won't be influenced by other peoples votes.

I have also already put the answers online with a timestamp to ensure for you guys I won't be changing the answers according to the results.

My first question is did you clean the lens before taking these shots. The Z doesn't have an oleophoebic coating and as such, fingerprints and moisture are the cameras biggest enemy.

To highlight what I'm saying, I'll post some pictures below in the same lighting conditions of the same subject matter before and after cleaning the lens.

This one is after cleaning the lens
[Xperia Z General] zodiac100:
This one is before cleaning the lens. Same exact pic in same exact lighting conditions and also on same camera settings. Night portrait.
[Xperia Z General] zodiac100:
The effect of moisture is clearly visible as it places a kind of hazy film over the photo.

I think there are too many examples of the layer floating around on the net giving the Zs camera a bad rep
[Xperia Z General] _JT:
Yes the lens was clean :) Besides that all pairs of pictures were taken with only seconds between them so all difference you see is due to processing differences. I also focussed them all in the center of the picture.
