[G1 Apps and Games] Infos3c:
I just tried adding MyFaves to my rooted Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant (Eclair 2.1.1) using the instructions in #148. I saw the following issues:

1) remount and cp not available as commands although the busybox versions are available. I'm assuming this is because the proper symbolic links to busybox are not there in the stock root update.zip. However, I was able to complete the steps by using busybox commands. I also re-downloaded the MyFaves.apk from #148 and used root explorer to do the r/w remount and the cp.

2) fix_permissions does NOT exist for the Samsung Galaxy S/Vibrant in the stock rooted config (obvious, I know). I copied the one from CM5.0.8 for N1 to System/Bin and ran it. I ended up with a TON of "Cut: Not Found" errors - and it seemed to have no effect on MyFaves.apk permissions, group or ownership.

3) After rebooting, nothing seems to have changed. I try to install the apk and it errors out.

I'm going to search out what I need to do to perform the fix_permissions manually - I'll dissect what the script is doing and then perform the steps manually - I need to familiarize myself with packages.xml as well, I guess. However, if someone has some pointers on anything I'm missing, I'd be grateful. TIA

Not working on Kang-O-Rama (a CM6RC3 variant) on my nexus one.

Downloaded .apk

Copied so system/app successfully

fix_permissions successfully

reboot successfully

Upon reboot many FC of process.android.apoc (or something), and a few other FC's

Luckily got home screen running (ADW) and navigated back to es file explorer.

Deleted MyFaves.apk from system/app

reboot successful

Everything fine now.

Except, i still don't have a myfaves application. =(

If anyone could figure out a way to get MyFaves working on Cyanogenmod 6.0.0, that would really be awesome!
[G1 Apps and Games] unknownally:

Go to above link and download gapps

Install it in recovery mode by choosing "install zip from sd"

Reboot

Hey all! I purchased an unlocked Roger's HTC Magic for use with AT&T. It should be arriving in the next few days and I want to be prepared. I've browsed through the forums here and I haven't found any threads in particular to Roger's Magic Hero roms.

Can anyone point me to the latest and greatest Hero rom for the Roger's Magic?

I found some older threads talking about it having no Wifi support? That sounds crazy so I'll assume that has been fixed.

I also read online that Dounut 2.0 has been released with multitouch. That makes me wonder if I should wait for some Hero version with this latest junk included?

Anyways, I'll keep digging and appreatiate any links.

Hey, I am new to flashing, so I am not fully up to date on every aspect, so sorry if this has been answered.

I recently flashed to itje's v12 Touchit rom, and i would rather have hardware keyboard than push support for the Opera Browser.

Would anyone be able to tell me how to get this? Do i just get the standard Opera Mobile cab from one of the threads and install it? Do i need to uninstall the one i have now first or will it just "update" it?

Or other options could be a registry fix? or does 9.7 beta work? Sorry i have been searching a long time and can't seem to find the answer.

thank you

edit: Just installed it, 9.7b works perfectly. But i would rather have the globe launch this one rather than the old one. Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction of getting this to work. I can't seem to uninstall the one that came with it, it just isn't in the list. I have also read that you go to application data/manila and change a reg in there to change the default, but first of all i don't seem to have the key and second what is the exe name for the beta?

Thanks!

Back into the IT thing

Hi all,

Welcome Elvis! I just started today, after getting a tytn ii phone. I studied IT and worked with various computer businesses, way back in the day, about 9 years ago and made a career change... be a mum... so when I got this phone, it was... whoa, I have to remember all the programming, gadgetry, etc which I faintly remember from before. I use to program in C, but man, I need a revamp! This site is awesome, and I am just buzzing that there is such a community out there, supporting each other without any expectations (however, donations are a kind offer of your appreciation, and I support this whole heartedly, so when I get some money, I will donate as much as I can! for reals!!). Now thats cool! Once I get my game plan on, hopefully I can add something useful to this site.

Just wana say cheers to the xda team here, and all the contributors, its an ingenious and helpful site.

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] elazullizard:
You need to flash the stock rom in order to remove the hardSPL. Afterwards, you can still use USPL to flash ROMs.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ashkash:
Can I not just flash spl.nbh extracted from the stock rom to remove the hard spl? Maybe by renaming spl.nbh to HERAIMG.nbh and placing it on an sd card and flashing from the sd? I do not want to flash the entire stock rom as this will erase everything and I know the phone is currently running a stock tmobile rom, just with hard spl.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
Only way I know of is to flash the Stock T-Mobile ROM.

But why the hell would you want to remove HardSPL?? Having it HardSPLed makes your phone basically immune to bricking, you can flash ANY ROM, etc. It's wayyy better. Why would you want to remove it?

AND, why would you stick with the default ROM that it came with?? Use a custom ROM, like Ivan's JustStable or something. They are about 3x faster than a stock ROM. Wayyyyy faster.

You can look through all the ROM's here (http://thewingster.com/roms.aspx)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] dcmetrodude:
Is it necessary to remove the hard SPL to install one of these roms from wingster? Before I brick my wing, I'd appreciate a response. Sorry, noob here. :)

If anyone out there has a friend with an iphone should know about the "apps" and a game called Ragdoll. If you havent heard of the game, it is definatly worth checking out. It is physics based, and made by Backflip Studios. It involves shooting a ragdoll out of a cannon in order to hit a target using trajectory and velocity. Sound simple, but the levels get tricky and the game is very addicting. If there is any game like that for windows mobile i would love to know. If not, i would like to challenge a developer to create one! People, check it out and let me know what you think.

I have a vx6800 using mr2 and i have the agps working perfect, with google maps. tomtom7 and visual gps wont pinpoint my location. i was told to try using a program called gps gate to rerout the gps data to a virtual comm port. i did this and while tomtom sees the gps data now on that port the data is all over the place and cannot loc on my location even with 5 or 6 sats. HELP please
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ShadowT:
I'm using mostly custom ROMs (Win 6.5). I highly recommend GPS Gate for your Tom Tom. I use IGO8 or Garmin XT.

You must get a local lock onto the Sats. Your GPS gate will Glow or be Green when lock is achieved. The first time you

must

be outside with your unit. If you generally do not travel more than a few hundred miles with the GPS off, it should lock onto the Sats within a few seconds. Any GPS will have difficulty if you move or are moving during the lock-on.

Today, I reloaded an old ROM (win 6.1), I had to go outside to lock on. Inside or without a clear view of the Southern skys will result in a long or poor lock on (long time wait) for the initial lock-on. After the initial time wait, within 5-6 seconds, even indoors, I get a green GPS gate indication after the screen turns on. After the GPS gate indication, as soon as the GPS program starts, I have a map location. Set the GPS gate to turn-on even after a warm boot (read the documentation). Turn off or Exit GPS gate if not using the GPS to prolong battery life.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] grs10251:
see thats whats weird, gps gate is green, even inside it says "gps data with valid position" but tomtom still has my lat and loc going all over the place every second or so. same with visual gps

Hey all,

I have a question, that may seem out of the oridinary but it does apply to me.. Ever since i sent my phone to my provider to fix an issue it has come back and the front half of the phone (the screen) has been very loose, when i press the power button i have to pretty much use both my hands otherwise the screen will move slighty and i cant press in the power button to take the phone out of standby..

My question is, would it be possible to remap the power button to something like, say the button in the middle of the phone at the bottom? (in between the answer and hang up buttons). And have it work if i hold it down for a few seconds or so?

I am just getting frustrated when i have to take my phone out of standby to check it and have this issue..

Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi all

I'm having a terrible time getting my Touch Pro 2 to use my home WiFi.

When I first got the phone one week ago, it was a bit flakey on the WiFi but it did connect and was working for a couple of days. Then it disconnected and now it simply won't re-connect. I've tried rebooting the phone multiple times, including pulling the battery out, and I've also rebooted the access point.

My access point is a Linksys WRT54G.

It seems I can connect fine when the AP is set to unencrypted or WEP but not at all on WPA or WPA2. But of course I don't want to run without WPA - WEP is fatally broken.

I tried the WPA2 fix mentioned here but it did not seem to make any difference.

I go to the WiFi settings, I choose my access point and click Connect, choose "Connects to: Internet", then enter my key and try to connect. It sits at Connecting for a while then simply goes back to Available. Sometimes I get the dialog about being unable to connect due to an unknown issue.

I've tried both AES and TKIP settings in the Touch Pro 2. In my access point, when using WPA2 it says "TKIP+AES" is in use. For WPA I can choose either TKIP or AES on the AP, and I've tried both combined with both settings on the phone.

I'm also confused about why it worked for a couple of days but now does not. The only obvious I can think that has changed is that for hte first couple of days I was using my old Orange sim, then my PAC code transferred and I switched to my Vodafone sim. But I can't say for sure that that corresponds to when it stopped working nor does it make any sense for why it would affect this.

Any help much appreciated.
