When you flashed your rom did you let the customizations run? Did you unlock your phone? If you let customizations run & didn't unlock your phone you won't get the GPS to work without some hassle. Letting the customizations in effect lock the GPS.

[G1 Android Development] ICBM:
I was poking around my phone, and I saw that my Contacts haven't synced since January 27. There's an icon, and an explanation that says "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly."

Obviously, it's not back shortly seen as it's been almost two months since it's functioned. I kind of had figured there was an issue because some changes that I made didn't make it back to my gmail, but i hadn't looked into it until now.

Has anybody else had a similar issue? Do you have any suggestions on how to fix it?

I've tried my Nandroid back-up, but that doesn't fix anything (which was expected). I'd rather not do a wipe, but I'll do it if I need to. Thoughts?

I have JF-RC33, HardSPL, Apps not on SD (yet)
[G1 Android Development] ICBM:
Update: Reapplied JF update.zip, no improvement.

I searched around, it seems to be a known issue, but with no real solution. The only thing that is known is that it's probably a data issue (corrupted somehow).
[G1 Android Development] psycopcs:
Ive experienced the same thing, i think its a google thing.
[G1 Android Development] nyquildotorg:
I had the same problem after switching from the US version to the UK version.

The only way I ever got it to sync again was to reflash the US version again. Might just be a coincidence, though.
[G1 Android Development] ICBM:
I figured it out. I played around with it a lot, and finally figured it out.

The issue comes from some less than robust programming on Google's part. Sync stops working when some data gets modified both in the Gmail Contacts program and the G1, before a sync takes place. From the moment this screw-up occurs, Sync stops working.

The way I fixed it was kind of weird. I actually ran Koush's Facebook Contacts sync. What I think it did was force the update from the Google server's side. I think google wins in the sync battle, so it forced it to my phone, ending the disconnect.

I'll do some more testing when I have time.
[G1 Apps and Games] esnapz:
Hi every1,

Yesterday I had to reformat my sdcard and do a wipe on my phone. I'm now in the process of reinstalling apps and such back in. My phone is rooted and set to run apps of sdcard. I'm trying to reinstall a paid game TangramPro.

1st try downloaded but then gave me an error saying not enough space to install. Strange because there is absolutely nothing on my phone.

2nd try it downloads an updated version and now gives me a different error saying that it couldn't delete old application.

Any ideas on how to clear this up?

I tried looking in /system/sd/data/app and app-private but I do not see this app in there. Looked in /data/app and app-private and nothing either.

*edit - restarted the phone and tried again: installation error insufficient storage available
[G1 General] MrADeveci:
Woohoo, we finally have Paid Apps here in the UK.

I'm running the JF v1.43 RC9 and can see them no problems.

They are all in $ though .... anyone in the UK seeing them in £ instead?
[G1 General] MrADeveci:
Damn, after all the wait .... I can't access te paid apps with my GAFYD account!!!!
[G1 General] TonyHoyle:
You can do it with google apps but it's a hack. If you also create a gmail account on your account, disable pop/imap on it, and forward everything to an alias* on your apps doman you can tell marketplace to use the gmail address and it'll work with (apparently) no issues.

* You need to forward to an alias because it won't let you forward to the primary address, as it thinks it's forwarding to itself.
[G1 General] crackmunky:
hehe woke up this morning to see paid app's in the marketplace! was kinda happy till i looked through them all and found nothing of interest... I'm sure some nice things will be released in the near future.
[G1 General] Wokerz:
I have an unlock g1 and i can still see the paid app's i herd all unlocked one's cant acces paid app's??? do u have to use a credit card or can i use a debit card?
[G1 General] Mr_dev:
Some are in sterling.

FlashSMS £0.69

Halo 3 Timer £0.69
[G1 General] TonyHoyle:
Pacman FTW :p

(That's a free app but didn't appear until all the paid apps appeared, possibly because it's 'on offer' rather than being actually free).
[G1 General] TonyHoyle:
It uses Google Checkout, so will work with whatever works with that. I use a debit card here but different countries will have different rules.
[G1 General] ThrashWolf:
I've had pacman since day 1 O.o

But yeah, got access to paid apps now, some are in $ some in £
[G1 General] Dharkaron:
The price depends on the location of the dev. Google checkout should automatically do the correct exchange rate for you.

I've been following the Enhanced Notification thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=491676

According to the thread, it requires a build (I assume they are referring to the Windows Mobile Build) of 21000+ to work. So my question is, how do I install a newer build of Windows Mobile 6.1. I currently have build 19965.

Does it come in a .cab file? If I install the new build do I lose everything on my diamond? Like TF3D and all my installed programs?

Thanks for your help.

Hi, is there any way to get our phones to beep when the battery is fully charged? I just got a new replacement battery and dont want it to get cashed out again. I will tell you though that these are the following places I have charged my dash via its USB port... just for laughs

1. computer

2. printer

3. sony tv

4. solar power charger

Yeah I keep a usb wire with me as well. I bought a creative zen mp3 player that came with a small 2.5 inch usb wire that was small enough to keep in my wallet, so I always have it with me. I work all over Manhattan so I totally rely on Google maps going from one location to the next, having that wire helps whenever i'm low on power, ill just plug it into anything I see that's usb.
[HTC Excalibur] HTCP4000PPC:
This is for everybody who uses the usb cable to charge their S620 S621 etc, do not charge ur phone with your usb cable it doesnt have a regulator like ur wall charger, what will happen is it will dystroy ur batteries life, now especially do Not charge with a usb when you go to bed, cause with usb once the battery is fully charged it will keep trying to charge ur battery, make sure when you use a usb to charge your phone, when it goes Green UNPLUG! it or ur battery will get killed eventually, ever noticed... when usb charging the phones real hot in the morning but when you use ur wall charger the phones cold, thiank about it if u wanna distroy ur phone.

Of course lol :) but ya Never charge ur phone with urn usb, if u do, do not ever charge over night where it gets hours.. of extra charging well ur in choduh land lol this is not said to be done by me but if u are silly enough to charge urn phone with the usb, make sure as soon as the phone goes green, unplug it!!!!!! right away.

Never charge urn phone via USB! this may also be not good for urn device (s620 s621)

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] booyakasha:
Ever since we changed times here last week my calendar added an hour to all of my appointments. for example: I have a class that goes for 8am-9:15, however my calendar now shows this as 9am-10:15....but then it gets even weirder....when i go in to edit the appointment and change the time to what it SHOULD be it is already entered as the correct time (8am-9:15). So the phone KNOWS what time the appointment is it just chooses to add an extra hour onto it when it displays it on the home screen. Any ideas what could be causing this or how i can fix it? ive tried a soft reset and ive tried changing the time to a different time zone then back to the correct one (Eastern Time) but nothing seems to fix it.

Thanks in advance

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] booyakasha:
any idea what causes this or how to get around it?

im having another issue as well. sometimes when i get a call it will show the contact for the person calling for one ring then it disconnects the call. after this i get a separate call from "Unknown Caller" for every ring after that. do i just have a buggy phone?

example:

Ring 1: Dad (disconnect)

Ring 2: Unknown Caller (disconnect)

Ring 3: Unknown Caller (disconnect)

Ring 4: Unknown Caller (disconnect)

Ring 5: Unknown Caller (disconnect)

Ring 6: Unknown Caller (disconnect)

Ring 7: Unknown Caller (disconnect)

.......

~Ring 28: Unknown Caller

Each one is logged as a separate missed call. so when this happens i will have ~28 missed calls.

[G1 General] skri11a:
I don't have any of those apps installed and am experiencing the same problem.

I do have K9 and I get a wait/force close periodically.

I do have caller lookup installed though (because it's apparently very important that I don't let my factory warranty on my truck expire).

I'm using JFRC33 1.42 but I can't say that it didn't happen with previous firmwares, it just seems to be happening more often now. It hasn't happened in a few days though.

It really does seem like there's a combination of factors that cause the problem, I just haven't been able to notice the pattern yet.

I have not done a wipe either.
[G1 General] gPhunk:
Hmmm... I have JFRC33 1.42 as well with the updated radio (1.22.14.11) and K-9 Mail which I too am having numerous force close issues. Maybe K9 is the culprit? Anyone else have K-9 as well?

just did it last night to see if it works fine now.

I'll post it as soon as I found out whether it works or not

so far the problem is GONE! the phone ring right away, shows the caller info as should be yeeeh!! am testing right now installing custom ringtones and missed call app, running missed call app is causing the phone to ring only twice and goes to VM right away, rebooted and everything is normal but no doubt that missed call is causing some unwanted actions in the phone,
[G1 General] juangil:
how many apps you have? are you rooted? apps in the sd? lets find out how far can we go to resolve this.. I think is related to the amount of apps and the notification apps running, I don't have K9 tho..

Guys, when you port the sys , what files do you have to replace from the old sys into the new sys folder so at the end the xperia does not get stuck on the logo ??

i know the .vm is necessary but what else ?? the shell32.exe ?? shellres.dll ?? gwes.exe ??

Get it ??

I would really appreciate you help on this :)

Thank you !!!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diewi:
If you want to port the sys from a device with vga resolution to our wvga device,

you'll just have to replace the folders with 480_resv_640 in the new sys with the 480_resv_800 folders

from the old sys. Also gwes.exe folder needs to be replaced with one from an wvga sys.

Otherwise you'll only see the top left quarter of the apps.

When porting from a qvga device you'll also have to replace the *DPI_196* folders.

Porting from wvga to wvga is, of course, the most simple.

Nothing needs to be done.

[Touch CDMA General] diabolic:
My friend asked me to take a look at her phone for her and its got me stumped. Basically it was in her purse, it dropped off the car seat onto the floor of the car, and that was it. When she took it out of her purse to check for messages she turned it on, all she got was a jagged line across the screen. She did a soft reset, and that was the end of it. Now it won't turn on. The only sign that it once had life is the glorious red light that goes solid when its plugged in. Sometimes it stays solid, other times it goes off after a few seconds or minutes.

I've tried that battery in my phone, and my battery in her phone and mine still works and hers still doesn't.

I understand that its probably a brick but are there any last ditch efforts I can try to either verify its toast, or that it still might be salvageable?

As the title says, what EXACTLY is included in a PIM backup? Is it contacts, speed dial, notes, etc?

Also, what's the difference if I save PIM.vol to my storage card or use a PIM backup program?

I ask because I've been just copying and pasting my PIM.vol onto my storage card.

Every once in a while as I've added more numbers, etc, etc, I would copy and paste it again and overwrite onto my storage card.

The reason I ask is because I'm getting into the 4M range.

During one of my ROM flashes, I used Device manager/outlook to restore my contacts. I then by hand added my speed dial and stuff.

When I looked at the volume of my PIM.vol file, it was only 1.37M, a far cry from the almost 4M file I've been copying and pasting.

Can someone enlighten me to why the PIM is so large yet when I started at bottom, I was almost 1/4 of the volume.

Thanks,

This problem has come up before.....no Hard Reset etc. required!!!

Use a decent file explorer and see if \Windows\StartMenu\Settings is there.....don´t worry, the folder is supposed to be empty. Chances are that you won´t find that folder and that causes your problem. Just create the above folder, soft reset et voilá.....

P.S.: you have probably used some cleaning utility to remove empty folders and that has caused your problem.....

That depends on how many files (and how big) there are in your windowsfolder. Use this to add some more info to your file-explorer and search for the big files , probably music or movies, and move them to a storagecard.

:D
