[Android Themes] djosiah:
cache has stated a few times that he will be back he is just taking a breather from the themeing world. i understand what you have said, but comparing doing something for free for people you dont know to working at a job and doing things for your kids isnt a very fair comparison as they are highly different.
[Android Themes] :
sadly this isnt even the first time its happened. I remember a lot of themers leaving here for that reason.

I personally appreciate cacheinjections work a lot. He has been very helpful in guiding me with help in regards to theming, go so far as to give me his gtalk so he could help me faster.

I also have a job that takes away my life (been getting very little sleep) so i understand what he means by having to balance that and android at the same time. its also discouraging if people like to demand stuff without taking this into account.

anyways, a break should help him get that extra stress off of him so itll be good to see him back haha
[Android Themes] SoCalSpecialist:
the point was, not to let the bad out weigh the good..

do what u do for the fact that u enjoy it and not to let anyone take that away from you.
[Android Themes] kusotare:
it doesnt always work that way. sure, you may do it because you enjoy it at first, but then it twists. you get a steady stream of people complaining about things you may have overlooked, things you omitted, or things you just havent got to yet. you get a flood of people begging you over and over to port your work to such-and-such rom and then complaining when you dont do it fast enough for their liking. you get people stealing pieces of your work and then passing it off as their own.

any one of these things alone might be overlooked. but themers and developers get them all at the same time on a constant and continuous basis. after a while, the fun gets sucked out of what you're doing and it becomes tiresome, tedious to read the forums when all you see is negativity and *****ing.

so let the man take a break. he has done fine works which some of us really do appreciate. when he comes back, he comes back, be that a day, a month or a year. it's his choice and you're not going to change his mind by whining about it even more.

best of luck cache! enjoy the vacation!
[Android Themes] G1_Lucky:
Cache dude, your bomb :)

Come on guys....Lets let the man live his life.

He IS a great themer and friend he helped me out and his ideas are some of the best I've seen.

All he has done is help people and It seemed like he enjoyed what he did. When did you ever see bad work from him?

Hu put his heart and soul into his work.

I've left the the android world also....one because i just didnt feel like there was a lot of enthusiasm for stuff that people did and my sister has my G1(She is my tester now) lol

All my personal creations are on her G1.....(I have an iphone now)

I switched to the Dark Side :(

P.S....

But.........Summer Vacation is close and School has been one of my main reasons for leaving :)

So over the summer I plan to join back with Volcom if he's up for it to make the next best thing you guys have seen.

Nothing for sure though so don't come after me with torches and knives lol

But without Cache none of the accomplishments that people made would have been possible without him.

Thanks man for all you have done. :)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hexto:
This is a great looking "how to" but I can't get past the Google Activation screen to try it. I don't have service on this phone yet and wont for a few week but was hoping to root this phone and get started on trying different ROMs.

Anyone know another way to bypass the activation screen other than this one which did not work for me http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=588017

Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KAwAtA:
Try finding a friend or someone with data, and insert their SIM to get by it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hexto:
lol. I have VZW and most of my friends have Sprint or VZW. The only person I know with a T-Mobile phone is in Jamaica for the next two weeks (yes, I'm jelous). Just wish I could get past that screen.

I use Android on an HTC Vogue which was a Windows phone originally but when I get to that Google Activation screen it gives me the option to skip it. I'm hoping to flash the phone and use it via wifi in my house without activating it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fibofan:
anyone know if its possible to use a Goldcard successfully that was made in a different phone? I can't boot up to make one but I need it to load a boot image on fastboot so I can boot it up. aarrgh...

[Droid Eris Android Development] sms440:
Jut thought I'd throw this out there since it's new to me and I didn't see it posted anywhere else. If you hold your phone horizontally and open the gallery it works in landscape mode and gets distorted if you hold it in portrait mode. It should also be noted that if you've already opened the gallery app in portrait mode and try to reopen it in landscape you will have to kill the program first. I've uploaded 2 photos to show that it works for me at least.
[Droid Eris Android Development] redman213:
Nice find bro!
[Droid Eris Android Development] ericFuels999:
hey guys, I found an even easier way to do this. press the camera button in the upper right hand corner, which causes the gallery to throw a force close dialog box. press force close and flip the phone's orientation immediately. gallery will quickly re-open itself automatically after the force close in the new orientation.

[G1 General] bobbylx:
Kind of like the title says, has anyone tried this? I've found online that some people have had luck using dummy phones for the exterior shell on other brands of phone, just didn't find anything about the G1.

I know there are no electronics inside, not worried about that. The exterior of my phone has a few nice scrapes and such and I see the dummy phones online anywhere from $6-$12, I figured it would be worth a shot.
[G1 General] evilkorn:
As long as it's the same quality and size as a normal phone, why not.

Why not just get a rubber skin for it if you are worried about scratches etc.
[G1 General] goldenarmZ:
I've never done it but I don't see why not. Just be aware that sometimes the dummy phones are glue-gunned together rather than screwed.. Be careful not to break anything.
[G1 General] Brainze:
Don't try it...

Been there, done that... Dummy phones are NOT hollow shells of the real thing. They're plastic look-alikes with weights in the middle to mimic the weight of the real thing.
[G1 General] beartard:
What he said. Dummy phones don't have ANY usable parts in a real phone (at least as far as the G1 is concerned).

just found that out. haha sorry. :P I dunno, I love sense and android and nice screens, but I need to have it for t-mobile :(
[General Questions and Answers] ~~Tito~~:
Desire.

One reason, is Android Sense UI, its more intergrated and more HTC Sense

Another is your use: are you a Power user? Media User? Or Normal User?

If you love the bigger screen then go for the HD2. Either choice is a awesome one.

hmm, yeah I need a $200 nexus on a family plan :/ some sort of snapdragon made by htc with sense is my next phone.

Then make a list of dislikes and likes for both of them, then get the one with the most likes.

ok so i just hacked a g1 from scratch yesterday and started on my mytouch today...only to find that i get stopped on the sappimg stage. It does the update fail/ image to old or what ever....PLEASE HELP idk how to create a gold card...i am trying to avoid this at all point! I tried on 3 2g sd cards and still nothing...please help
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] KAwAtA:
Did you try flashrec? If that doesnt work, then goldcard it is!

I'm confused though, you don't know how to make a gold card yet you did it on 3 sd cards? What?

Thanks to unlockr, he just put this up!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=645373

According to unlockr, you should try a 2gb kingston if everything else fails.

Lucky you, I stumbled upon this!

If you really wanna avoid the goldcard, then you MAY have to avoid rooting ^^
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] cincinnati09:
ok cool thanks alot (not rooting not an option ;) lol)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] cincinnati09:
o and what do you mean about flash rec....ima noob even though i got two hacked devices under my belt (familys g1's) ...all i know is im at 1.6 and i guess from their i have to go to 1.5 no matter what right? ionly found one way to do tht online and that was through the skateboard android screen and the sapppimg

am i wrong?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] KAwAtA:
well I have no idea how to root a g1 as I don't use or read up about it at all, but to root a magic/mytouch, luckily I didn't have to downgrade or anything. All I did was go to the unlockr and it taught me how to root. They use flashrec there, take a look. You run an app and load up recovery and you're basically good to go. (I also flashed an eng spl after) I'm not sure if it'd work for you though, I don't have any info about your phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] cincinnati09:
im 32b..fat32...android 1.6 what else do you need n how can i get it?

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] leba837:
Hi, I have a search on the Ole Tinternet but to no avail. Please could some nice person on XDA point me in the right direction?

I have been using Co-Pilot Live 7 on my X1 (Legitimate Copy) but after Flashing my latest Test ROM I cannot use CoPilot anymore.

The Program is Stored on my Memory card and the Autorun feature runs on insertion of the card I have tried installing to the Card and Device - which goes fine (No Errors)

However after resetting once installation is complete I select the Icon and get the Splash screen showing followed by a error message: "Unable to open CoPilot. Please make sure the storage card is inserted or that the data has been properly downloaded."

Does anybody have any solutions please?

I have tried the Obvious, Soft/Hard Reset, Flashing to a different ROM, Installing to Device or Memory card. :confused:
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] lakeg:
Did you try to update with copilot central http://www.alk.com/copilot/central/
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] leba837:
Yes Using CoPilot Live Central 2.0 I know have the latest version of CoPilot 7 (7.7.0.134) I think it may be something that i have inadvertantly deleted from my memory card.

[Hero CDMA General] s0v3r1gn:
For some reason, my caller ID on Fresh 2.0b is not showing the correct contact information for incoming/outgoing/call logs. It has picked a random person to be all calls.

Additionally this is a person that is not even in my Google Contacts list, they are a person from Facebook that does not even have a phone number listed in Facebook.

Is this a Facebook app thing or a dialer issue? And what do I need to do to fix it?
[Hero CDMA General] danimal_01:
in the search function of the site type in "Contacts Bug" hope some of the solutions there help you... I was still unable to get this fixed after endless trials on multiple roms mind you. Good luck. I'm the person asking for this exact same thing ;)

[Hero CDMA General] s0v3r1gn:
Well I did just figure out how to get rid of it.

I went under settings and removed the sync account for "Facebook for HTC Sense" and all my call logs reverted back to the right people... =/

That just means I cant use the facebook sync, which was half the reason I went with the hero. =(
[Hero CDMA General] Bielinsk:
It does work on the stock ROM.

Mine works fine on Damage .999999999 rom.

You can turn off the "Turn Screen On" while receiving text with Chomp. Check all your options, it's in there.

As far as customization I know you may change the color of the bubbles...check out the dev website and see if you can change the style. I didn't like the bubbles at first but it grew on me. I like it much better than Handcent. Different strokes for different folks! :D

I remember when I first loaded the recovery image a long time ago that I got tons of errors, but the instructions said to ignore them.

I know, I am no help on this one.

there is always RUU, root, flash new image, load nandroid backup.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david279:
nothing is wrong. reboot and try again. Every now and then you get that error when flashing a recovery. hope you didn't wipe and RUU already.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blindfaith76:
Had the same issue as above, but mine wouldn't even get past the "htc" screen. Had to pull the battery, do an RUU then re-root using the 1.6.2.img

my advice would be to RUU and go back to "real" stock, then root again using the updated .img then load up your ROM again.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danimal_01:
heck no DO NOT RUU as this WILL brick your phone. I had the same issue and tried to RUU. Your phone will be bricked. Just looks like you're going to be stuck using that rom for the rest of your phone life... You can take the risk if you want but don't say I didn't warn you.

This happened to me today also. I downloaded better terminal and installed old recovery menu through terminal. It worked perfectly.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navalynt:
Try this:

adb shell reboot oem-78

Once the phone shows the HTC logo try this:

fastboot devices

Make sure your device is listed, then flash the recovery:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

recovery.img should be the latest recovery image.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justinisyoung:
i got this message a few times but there was nothing wrong with my phone. what i did that i know fixes the problem is this:

download a task killer of some sort and kill ALL APPS. as in, ALL currently running apps.

try flashing it again. it should work.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navalynt:
That's why you should reboot into oem-78 and use fastboot, so nothing else is running :p
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richse:
EDIT: THAT worked with the old 1.5.2 recovery!!!! Thank you so much!!! I don't know why my phone hated the 1.6.2 recovery. Maybe it just didn't want to be blue.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justinisyoung:
try this

adb shell
reboot recovery

try it without combining it all into one line, like adb shell reboot recovery. i found that that doesn't always work. so just separate it into two lines

I got those errors on my first attempt at flashing the 1.6.2 recovery image so I just rebooted then used adb and reflashed the 1.5.2 recovery image, rebooted into recovery just fine and then when I was at the recovery screen I followed these instructions:

make sure the recovery image is already on your sd card.

Connect your Hero via usb to your pc/mac/... (while at the recovery screen)
adb shell
$su (not required if you have root already)
#mount -a (I got an error on this so just ignored it)
#flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-heroc-v1.6.2.img

everything works great now
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CorporalMaxSterling:
I'm new to this "forum" business, so I don't know how to do this officially... but you, sir, have my thanks. this information was solid.

out of curiosity, how'd you know that special mode to tell fastboot to load up?? as a developer I'm always interested in how people find information like this!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMGRANDS:
If you can Turn on your phone Normally, just Boot your phone... Then once its Turned on, Install Rom Manager and Flash a Recovery through that app! Then at the Bottom of the Rom Manager app you can Select Flash a Alternate Recovery!

That should Switch your Recovery back to Amon_RA! But if it Doesn't... You'll still be back up and Running with a Working Recovery!

GoodLuck!
