Hi all, I don't want to accept the ota update. Does anybody know which file to freeze with titanium backup to stop that the phone from asking me if I want to update every 12 hours.

Thanks

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I'm gonna guess and say its the BlurUpdater_vzw.apk. I'm not completely sure though.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mozz671:
I couldn't find a file named blurupdater_vzw.apk but I found a file named "updater 4.1.2.9" and I froze that. I'll let you know if it works.

Thanks
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
blurupdater_vzw.apk is a system app. I used Root Explorer to rename it. I haven't had a prompt to update yet.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrmo:
updater.apk
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Screenshot or it doesn't exist. (see what I did there?) But seriously, there is no updater.apk listed in the system apps.

Anyway the renaming BlurUpdater_vzw.apk to BlurUpdater_vzw.apk.bak has fixed it for me.

Hi,

I've written a program for the XDA and was wondering if it would be possible for me to configure an XDA with the program installed on it, and with a customised boot screen, sound settings, and copy the whole system to an SD card, which i could then restrore to many other units from the card.

Does anyone know if this would be possible?

Thanks,

James

I think if you modded the extended rom, placing your prog in there, and moding the autorun procedure that runs after a hard reset, you could. But not really sure, and you might not be able to use the same image on each of the devices, even if they are the same.

Hi...

How can I get the SPECIAL PERMISSIONS in windows 8 pro?

If yo can: Tell me with IMAGES ;)
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
I haven't the foggiest notion what you're talking about. "SPECIAL PERMISSIONS" as in, Administrator? System? Kernel mode?

I'm honestly curious to know if *you* know what you're talking about!
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] XEROling:
What I am talking about is: when I enter in any file properties -> security -> *user name* -> edit I cannot click on special permitions box...

I have downloaded "take ownership ex" program for win 8 but it cannot take special permitions (delete change rename... in system files) it can only take normal permitions (delete change rename... in normal files )

[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] SixSixSevenSeven:
You dont need the special permissions, I dont think they even do anything on your files. You really should have clarified before what you meant though.

Anyway, this was the first result in google: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308419

Would have been much quicker to google than create a forum post for a problem with a simple solution.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
To be fair, the Advanced Permissions dialog (which allows taking ownership, incidentally; no need for another program) is a little bit different in Win8 than in previous versions, but not by enough to be important.

[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] SixSixSevenSeven:
Perhaps if you bothered looking you will find that the process is near identical on windows 8, at least close enough that anyone with an inkling of common sense should be able to figure it out.

Besides, google for the windows 8 one, its there. Not hard to use google

Hi all.

I had an Orange UK Hero GSM on the latests official stock ROM and looked everywhere for a simple way to get Cyanogen 7 on it...

Most the 'simple' ways I found involved typing in text in a command line window and the ones I tried (including the official CyanogenMod instructions) did not work...

With a lot of looking around I've found a simple way that involves no typing and only downloading 3 files! So here goes... but before I do, remember I am not responsible for any damage you cause to your device. I am sharing the method that worked for me...

1) Put the attached apk files and the CyanogenMod 7 zip in the root directory of your SD card in the phone. The CyanogenMod zip can be got from: here.

2) Install the Universal Androot apk

3) Run the app to root your device (using SU option 2.1-2.2)

3) Install the RomManager 4.3 apk

4) Run the app. Choose install Clockwork Mod Recovery to install the recovery

5) Choose install ROM and when the phone boots into CWM Recovery select to install your CM7 zip from your SD card.

6) Reboot and you've got CM7.2 on your Hero!

Let me know if this works for you and hit the thanks button if it does! This guide would have saved me a day of trial and googling if someone else had written it first! :cyclops:

Thanks to the makers of Universal Androot and Rom Manager... it's their work that made this job so simple!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] insigniared:
Thank you!!

Thank you for sharing the almost extinguished Rom Manager 4.3.apk

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merrygo:
Dear xda-developers members,

I need some help in the right direction:

I have installed Dhollmen's kernel (from xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2176563) on my GT-P5110

which is rooted and running CM10.1 at the moment and I used cwm to flash the kernel (from the link above).

Now I am trying to compile the kernel from their source code (see link) and flash the compiled kernel.

This has not been a success yet. I either get stuck at bootscreen or in a boot loop.

What I have tried:

export ARCH=arm
export CROSS_COMPILE=~/android/toolchains/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi-
make dhollmen_P51XX_defconfig
make

This resulted in zImage file and I tried to flash with heimdall:

heimdall flash --KERNEL arch/arm/boot/zImage

This got me stuck on the bootscreen

Try 2:

With the compiled zImage and the working Dhollmen kernel zip (DhollmenCM-P51xx-Kernel_20130706.zip from the link)

I unpacked the working Dhollmen kernel, split boot.img, replace zImage with mine, repack to boot.img, repack to zip and flash zip from cmw

This got me stuck in a boot loop

The frustrating thing is that I have no errors so I am clueless of what is going wrong.

Can someone explain how he is going from his source code (https://github.com/Dhollmen/DhollmenCM_kernel) to a flashable zip file?

Thanks for the suggestion. I actually found Swype (also not free) which I really love. It has every feature I could ask for except for one thing. It doesn't have a built in button for disappearing the keyboard. Most of the time - but not always - a button appears on my nav bar. Other than that I would call it the perfect keyboard.

Please can you help. I purchased Tomtom 3 a few months ago and installed it correctly on my XDA2. I used this fantastic program for 2 months until my XDA2 developed a hard reset problem. The Faulty XDA2 has now been replaced with a new XDA2i.

This is where the problem starts. Firstly I had trouble installing the software, I had to remove the Activesync Partnership to get it to work, it eventually installed correctly. I used the Tomtom 3 today and found the XDA2i freezes, the calendar works etc but tomtom is problematic. I even tried to close down all running programs and does so yet tomtom remains froze on screen, leaving me no option but to reset the device.

I reset the device and after 5mins - 30mins of using tomtom again it freezes.

I'm guessing it could be a probelm with the Bluetooth or possibly memory card however both the bluetooth reciever and SD card worked ok on my XDA2.

I have read as many posts on this forum about this problem and seem to have found the possible reasons:-

SD Card not fast enough or incompatible (especially the 1gb Card)

Active O2 is the problem with a memory Leak.

Phone signal loss causes the problem

Does anyone know for definte, which problem is actually responsible for this lockup?

SD Card - I have tried the SD card on my XDA2 and it worked fine yet with the xda2i it could be causng the problem. To check if this is the problem im going to install the maps on the actual HD of the XDA2i and remove the SD card, it can't be that then!

Active O2 - I have installed the corporate install and it has froze once already, yet it may have been a coincidence. Watch this space!

Phone signal loss - could be that need to test it out when it next freezes, check the phone signal status at the precise moment of the lockup.

Can you help? I now have a tomtom 3 sofware with UK maps and Maps of western europe that is at present useless to me, and I keep getting lost when I drive.

Its worth trying this, make sure your gps is correctly bonded and recognised by tomtom, open the gps portion of tomtom with blutooth switched on, when you get a lock open up the tomtom main program, always close tomtom with the exit tab and make sure its closed by using a task switcher or going to settings/memory/running programs. Please let me know if this long winded effort at a solution helps at all.
[General Topics] bluebotle:
Hi,

I always close down Tomtom 3 using the exit button in the navigator menu. The problem I have is when the Tomtom freezes there is nothing it will do. Howvere I can press the calendar button etc to use the XDA2i as if there isnt a problem yet Tomtom 3 is still froze in the background.

When I go into the Memory settings of the XDA2i I stop all programs and can see TT3 running. It tries to stop it and says end task now, I end now and the question disapears yet when I go back into the memory it is still running and if I open TT3 it opens up as a frozen screen.

The only way to clear TT3 from being froze in the background and to get it working again is to reset the device.

It could be the SD card, Active O2 or the phone signal, it could be something else.

One thing is for sure is the reply I got from Tomtom which is below:-

I had problems like you using a 1gb sandisk SD card, it worked fine in my XDA2 and XDA2s, but in the XDA2i it worked but would soon lock up.

after reading posts about sandisk cards causing problems i got hold of some cheapie lexar SD cards. and it now works fine.

I do understand you dont have a sandisk card, but i think it would be worth a try to change or borrow a diferent make card.

Good luck John
[General Topics] Anton.Valleyman:
I've got a Lexar 1GB 32x High Speed card, and I've had this problem on both the 2 and 2i.

I used to use another 128MB and I really don't recall ever having this problem on that one. However, I sold it after I got the 1GB.

The 1GB was an Xmas pressie so I didn't really want to draw attention to it, and I've attempted reformatting it and defragging etc...plus now it's probably too late to request a replacement.

My first point of suspicion would be the card, definitely. Also, can you fit the 100+MB onto your 2i internal ram? I don't think there is anywhere near enough space is there?

Cheers

[General Topics] mindracing:
I'm experiencing the same.

Do you have Tom Tom Traffic installed?

I'm thinking that this is the cause of my problem.
[General Topics] Anton.Valleyman:
Just for the record I don't have TT Traffic installed.
[General Topics] bluebotle:
I have tried various methods of eliminaton to highlight the actual cause. The XDA2i freezes using tomtom3 with a fresh corporate hard reset with only the TT3 installed after default.

Tomtom's bare minimum was installed, that is no traffic just the software, GPS and maps of GBwith voice.

One thing I have found is the SD card works most of the time however last night i tried to run TT3 and it said it couldn't find the maps. I checked the Memory settings and ithe SD card was showing and looked like it was working correctly, yet tomtom couldnt see it!

If it did this when I was using Tomtom 3 then I would imagine a lockup happening which it is.

I am drawing my conclusion to the SD card being the cause.
[General Topics] bluebotle:
Just out of interest!

PLease can all the people who have experienced this problem of lockups using tomtom 3 say what size of SD card they are using.

I am drawing my conclusion to it being caused by 1Gb SD Cards only.

Can anyone tell me if they have experienced the lockup using anything smaller than 1gb.

Cheers

[General Topics] mindracing:
I'm using a 1Gb card and having this problem. I'll change to a 250mB and see what happens.
[General Topics] bluebotle:
Hi all,

Update!

I bought a new SD card today (512mb SD Card) and guess what, the XDA2i using tomtom froze again!! Its not the SD card. However it did take longer for the lockup to happen, I managed to drive 25miles before it froze.

I bought the SD card becasue I installed the Maps on the XDA2i's own memory and didn't experience any lockups at all on that. I thought it must be the 1gb SD card hence the reason why I bought a 512mb.

When I tested the maps using the XDA2i's memory, I didnt drive that far so it may have been within the 25mile range so it didn't truely test it.

After the lock up, using the same 512mb SD card, I tried driving with the phone off, I drove all the way back home from the point of the lockup i.e the same 25miles back home. It didnt lockup so it may be down to the phone. I have read the the phone signal loss causes the lockup, they may be right, I'll test it out fully tomorrow.

I'll keep you posted.

Bye
[General Topics] mindracing:
Are you using a BT headset at the same time by any chance?

That's when I get my lock ups.
[General Topics] bluebotle:
Hi,

I have reached a full conclusion and can report success!

Following some extensive testing with various installs and setups I can now finally explain what I think is causing this freeze /lockup.

Its the Phone! of all things!

Here is a summary of the testing setups bearing in mind nothing else was installed on the XDA2i other than default and the tom tom had GB Only Maps.

Active o2 installed (Personal) using 1gb SD card and phone on (FREEZE)

Active o2 not installed (Corporate) 1gb SD Card and Phone on (FREEZE)

Active o2 not installed (Corporate) 512mb SD Card and Phone on (FREEZE)

Active o2 not installed (Corporate) No SD Card, Tomtom using Memory of XDA2i and Phone on (FREEZE)

Active o2 not installed (Corporate) 1gb SD Card and Phone off (OK)

Active o2 not installed (Corporate) 512mb SD Card and Phone off (OK)

Well there you go, with all the setups that froze, the lockup took longer to happen with the smaller SD card, using the 1gb SD card it took approx 5miles of driving whereas the 512mb SD card I managed to drive 20miles.

Today, I drove 149 miles WITHOUT a single lockup using the 1gb SD card, POI installed and other Apps in the background running, all this because the phone was OFF. Wireless On! as I use Bluetooth GPS.

The reason people may be experiencing a lockup when using a Bluetooth Handsfree head set is because the phone is ON! I think anyway! its not becuase of the Bluetooth Headset.

I think the problem lies with the phone changing cells (changing masts) when you drive, thats why the freeze occurs at various points when you drive. I don't think it is nessecarly due to loss of signal as the phone seemed have a signal when I had a lockup. The masts change must be the problem, changing from one mast with a good signal to another with a good signal!

Anyway Yippee I have found out the cause, hope its the same for you guys too.

One point I must add, I found that using the 1gb SD card the XDA2i runs slower and can cause you to experience problems loading the maps or installing tomtom maps onto it without deleting the partnership in activesync. I am downgrading my SD card to my new 512mb card as it runs smoother and seems to cause less problems for Tomtom.

Any one with other suggestions please post, Knowing my luck it will freeze tomorrow with the phone off, I think that 149miles is pretty conclusive though, especial as it froze again when I turned it on again.

Bye
[General Topics] mindracing:
So what good is that? A phone that has to be off to work properly!

I'll check out your recommendation of the smaller card and let you know.

Good investigative work.

If I hadn't unlocked mine I'd send it back for a replacement. I don't want to pay to unlock again and TomTom are a real pain with authorising a new install on another phone/pda.

lock up tomtom3

Hi all...I posted same problems some weeks ago...didnt take too long tho' to discover that it is indeed the phone that causes the freeze up... I noticed it when I passed the same point locally and realised that there is a phone mast there...so when the phone picks up a signal from a nearby mast etc it freezes the system...I use it without problems with the phone off..in flight mode..I have even had replacement xda 2i from o2 thinking it was that that was faulty..as for tomtom 3.7...doesnt make any difference,,still freezes...albeit whilst installing it it doesnt tell you that it was meant for earlier systems.

so come on tomtom...get it sorted!..
[General Topics] bluebotle:
One thing I haven't tried is using Tomtom with Active O2 installed, i'm installing it now to test it out tomorrow.

Active O2 was always suspect after reading a post about it having a memory leak. I'll let you know if this adds to the cause of the lockup.

Its good to hear someone else report the phone causing the problem. I did actually read a post when I first started this task saying the phone was in fact the problem. One of the things I find with any forum is you never know if that is an isolated case or is the actual cause. This is why I have tried to report fully on what I have done in order to help other people.

I must say this Forum is wicked and many thanks to the creator and the users.
