[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flawd:
No, I don't have backup or restore in the options, neither in recovery or fastboot.

This doesn't make much sense. Here's what I'm doing. It looks like it should be working fine:

C:\Users\Chris\Desktop\meh\android-sdk-windows\tools>fastboot devices
HT9CWP806497 fastboot

C:\Users\Chris\Desktop\meh\android-sdk-windows\tools>fastboot.exe flash recovery
recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img
sending 'recovery' (3948 KB)... OKAY [ 0.582s]
writing 'recovery'... OKAY [ 1.439s]
finished. total time: 2.021s

Edit:

I was thinking maybe I need a different radio image, but then I remembered reading that Froyo came with a new radio image (right?). And I couldn't install a new radio image anyway because the update.zip files won't load. I'm pretty stumped here....

Edit again:

The code above was what I just did to flash the new recovery, and I still don't have the options to backup and restore the data.

Another edit!: I also loaded Modaco's superboot again (successfully) and started the process over again with no luck.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaJu:
You don't have a backup/restore option with AmonRa's 1.7.0? That means you don't actually have the custom recovery. Your fastboot is lying to you.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prettyboy85712:
In the terminal app,type "reboot recovery". What happens?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prettyboy85712:
And,try dropping the ".exe" from fastboot.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] futango:
what they said. Sounds like you still have the stock recovery image. Try reflashing the recovery again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flawd:
I tried both the regular RA recovery and RA Cyanogen recovery using both commands, fastboot and fastboot.exe but I continue to get the same recovery image.

I know there's no way to relock the bootloader, but is there any way to reverse what Modaco's superboot did and try that again?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaJu:
Go here. Scroll to the bottom of the first post. Looks at the screenshots. Does your recovery look like that?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flawd:
Nope, it's the stock recovery image with the exclamation point and Andy in the background. 4 options: reply, update.zip, factory reset, and wipe cache
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxt:
Try using amon ra recovery image stock for n1, not the cyanogen version.

This one:

http://files.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=amon_ra/RECOVERY/&file=recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img

and rename it to recovery.img or something short then try the fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prettyboy85712:
Confirm you have root. Go to the terminal app and type "su". What does it say?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaJu:
Well root isn't necessary to flash a recovery. He just needs an unlocked bootloader.

Well, OP, you might as well just find a different computer and try it on that.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxt:
OP said he unlocked the bootloader.... so OP verify that when you TURN ON your Nexus One, the logo with the X there is a PADLOCK on the bottom of the screen. If it does, then your bootloader is unlocked and you need to install amon ra recovery.

If no padlock, you're not unlocked.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dictionary:
OP make life easy. Go to Market. Install ROM manager. Either install clockwork recovery, or scroll down. Select the option to flash another recovery. Flash. Done
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] lanzemurdok:
Anyone tried playing the new gameloft games on this device? games like nova and asphalt 5?

I tried downloading the asphalt 5 demo off of the market place but it just says "my device is not supported" which is kinda crap..I wish there was a way for me to just play the damn thing to see how crappy it runs it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] Gramon:
I've been wondering that myself. I get the same thing when I try to enter in my device and I tried doing the SMS thing on their site but have yet to receive a text message.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] Etype R:
I tried the same thing, I would imagine the slide could run it with how fast and smooth everything else is on this phone. I purchased super tumble and have been playing that lately, graphics look pretty nice in that game.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] Etype R:
Installed the toonwarz demo, very chopy.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] Digitaldreamer7:
This is kinda odd cause the GPU benchmarks are really good. I wonder what is causing this
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] neva dinova:
The n1 doesn't even run toon warz smoothly its choppy at the part when you come out of the cave it is smoother than the mytouch slide
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] gerelee:
i installed asphalt 5 but it wouldn't run, said something about not being compatible with this device.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] Fordude:
Asphalt 3d runs very smooth on the slide, but asphalt 5 checks for device type and does not find the slide in its list so never runs.

I bet it would run just fine!
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] lanzemurdok:
so is there any way to force it to play even though it doesn't suport it? by manually putting the files on there?
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] Jerzeeloon:
I installed ashphalt 5 on my slide and it plays fine but the game itself sucks.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] Fordude:
Asphalt 5 would install but not play for me, said my device was not supported. U sure it was A5 and not A3?
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] klarj2010:
Ok guys, I have a my touch slide and I simply love it until I got this device I was skeptical of trying a new mobile os been with windows forever, hate the iphone this os seems to be an improvement over both but cant wait for the MP7 os to arrive. Anyway I have tons of high end graphics games running flawlessly on my device including" Homerun battle 3D, Heavy Gunner,Raging Thunder 1 and 2, my fave is BackBreaker Football etc. no problems at all. the problem i have discovered is that Gameloft made the games Device specific. not that it wont run on this device the sight says its compatible but when u go to put your device type "HTC" it then only gives you one choice to select"Nexus 1" which it says is not compatible for the nexus 1. This device falls under the catagory of High end Android devices. bad thinking gameloft. anyway, checkout the games I just mentioned if u haven't already plenty of down time and break time enjoyment, and by the way all of these games i mentioned are online multiplayer compatible.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] r0man:
Asphalt checks the Build.prop probably, or screen resolution. I tried to install Hero of Sparta and it worked fine but didn't fit on the screen.

The MyTouch Slide is not a high end device. If you play Crysis on a computer at 800x600 with a Nvidia GT 240 you'll get a good frame rate. Play it at 1600x1200 and you'll get a bad frame rate. The same goes for the Slide, it runs at 480x320 while the Nexus runs at 800x480.

I do <3 the Slide though
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] mylostlonelysoul:
works fine but sucks like the others said.

never have gotten other games to play tho, i do download them from 4shared tho cause im not paying the money for a one time use. but its downloads and doesnt go to a menu or nothing just is about to go then blacks out to home screen.

The phone it self is nice for intensive games. I mean could be greater but i was using the g1 so its a very big upgrade.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] Joe333x:
Everyone do yourself a favor and just use Gensoid or SNesoid and play full games that look good and are actually fun like Sonic, Mario, Paperboy ect. Why play crappy mobile games when you can play a full Sega or Nintendo game and just save it and load it as you please.
[Omnia II General] pooch11:
Hi everyone,

I've noticed many sites including eBay selling Samsung Omnia i900 phones for really low prices...some at about $100 per phone. I find it very difficult to believe that these phones could be sold that low. Are they genuine Samsung phones or are they cheap Chinese clones? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
[Omnia II General] dawo5010:
Omnia on eBay

Could you give a few examples?

You might want to look at the seller's rating, etc.
[Omnia II General] pooch11:
Yes that would help.

Since I can't post links please see item # 290444362182 on ebay.

There is a link to an auction I noticed. The seller has an incredible amount of feedback. I tried sending emails to previous winners of this auction but have had no luck with responses. I'm worried about getting a cheap Chinese clone. Would you know how to check before hand if the phone is real? Sure the auction images and specs are exactly those of Samsung but we can't know for certain until we have the actual phone. Is there a serial number on the phone (usually underneath the battery) that the seller can give me before I purchase?

Thanks
[Omnia II General] gejenn:
Are you looking for one?? i have a used i900 in excellent condition,ive just upgraded to a omnia i8000.if u want we can make a deal.
[Omnia II General] pooch11:
Thanks for the offer but I will most likely be using an iPhone someone is getting rid of. This way I feel safe about where the product is coming from and I really won't be paying much at all for it.

I'm still curious about the Samsung on eBay. I can't believe they are real genuine phones. I'd love to see a serial number or something to get an idea. If they are real I can probably find a bunch of people interested in buying them from me at a great profit. I just don't want to rip anyone off with sh%tty Chinese clones
[Touch HD General] Ginge1388:
Hey,

I've recently obtained a problem with my start menu leaving trails when it is scrolled. It has only started happening within the last couple of hours and it's something a simple soft reset doesn't remedy.

I did a search of the forums and only found the same thing with an X2 user and no answers on how to sort it out.

I've removed the programs that I've installed today but to no avail. And it's just plain annoying and mystifying.

Using the BlackSTONEhenge hyper rom if that's any help.

Cheers.
[Touch HD General] Ginge1388:
Does no-one have any ideas towards a solution for this? It is incredibly annoying and i don't particularly want to do a Hard Reset.

Cheers.
[Droid Incredible General] parcou:
Still waiting on my DINC while using my WM TP2. I have one well two feathers I like to have on my DINC. I am tech support and get calls all the time:

1. On my TP2 when on a call and a new incoming call comes in I can reject that call with a 'send txt' button and it send the caller a text I pre-created to let them know I am busy. Is it possible to do this on the DINC?

2. There is a free app my TP2 uses to record all calls automatically and it helps me because I cannot not write many times when I am driving or running network in a ceiling so the ability to playback a saved call is huge. Is there a app out there anyone use to record calls on the DINC? (pls do not concern me about the legal side this is for me and me only and there are apps that can do it which I am doing now)

Thx
[Droid Incredible General] jdmba:
DINC does at least one of those

This is already built in ... go to PHONE -> MENU -> PHONE SETTINGS

The top entry is "Edit default message" where you would put your pre-typed rejection. Once its in there, on a phone ring, you can go to Menu and click "reject and send message" (or some such thing; cant be sure as I am not getting a phone call as I write this).

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bonesy:
WHAT?!? does that say .32 kernel? What is this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] blackplatypus:
AOSP mainstream kernel, however we cant use it without heavy patching, because HTC phones need proprietary libraries that only HTC has.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watzone69:
It's pretty strong here in south part of Austin. It's definitely faster than 3G!

Yes, it eats battery power so I always switch over to 4G when I'm plugged in, especially if I'm tethering.

I have an app called Power Manager that can switch things on or off according to your power (battery, AC, USB, low battery, etc.). Right now it will only do wifi and GPS but I'm hoping there will be support for 4G soon. Anyone know of an app that would do something similar? I may give "Locale" a try.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenny:
My area isn't listed as a 4g location, but it's "coming in 2010", I heard October tbqh. They do have a map of some locations in the bay area (South Bay) that have 4g... but the other day I turned it on and sure enough there was 4g at my gym! So I have been playing around with 4g a bit more, and it comes really close to my house. Sadly it doesn't reach my house, just a few blocks away.

So when I have it (near work, or at the gym etc) I use it, it is faster and I notice the difference ;)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bielinsk:
I have been trying to follow the fake flash thread as well as the quickboot.

Are they dependent on each other? Do I need to do fake-flash THEN quick boot to get the rom manager to be able to reboot into recovery?

Or do all I need to do is push the reboot and follow the quick boot instructions?

i made a wallpaper and made it 480x800 but when i try to set it as my wallpaper it make me select a small portion of the picture then it stretches that and make it the wallpaper. i can resize the selection but it maintains aspect ratio and still stretches it. is there way to just set the entire picture? or fit to screen?
[EVO 4G General] lacrossev:
The actual resolution, since sense pans the picture, is 960x800. I have no idea how to make it so the screen is fixed and you can just use 800x480. You can also drag the corners of the box to resize the part of the picture it uses
[EVO 4G General] nofattys:
Download Wallpaper Set & Save on the market. Make a folder named Wallpapers on your SD card. Load it w/ wallpapers(.png files for better resolution) then launch the WS&S app and choose a pic. It'll do the rest for you. Hope this helps....

Hi,

i received my anti-glare + anti-fingerprint protectors from dcmugen today. They are really good for the price (€6 for 5pcs! :D).

http://cgi.ebay.at/5-ANTI-GLARE-Scr...essories_RL&hash=item3a56f17a31#ht_4028wt_911

But, as every anti-glare protector, they make the screen a bit "blurry" and a have bad screen readability. The N1 display is so nice, i don't want to mess that up with a protector.

Apart from that the one from dcmugen are great, much less fingerprints, absolutely no bubbles and extremly easy to apply, can not be easier to apply, great fit, very cheap, a.s.o.

Anyone knows if there is an oleophobe (anti-fingerprint) + clear screen-protector anywhere? I hate these fingerprints so much :(

Thanks.

Hi

Guys i recently bought HTC HD2 and i am new to windows mobile. Set is from T mobile but its unlocked....

Hardware:

QualCOMM(R) 8250B

Speed 1024MHz

RAM 448MB

Flash Size 512MB

Software information:

OS version 5.2.21864 ( 21864.5.0.81 )

Manila version 2.5.19202525.0

Rom version1.43.110.2 ( 70315 ) WWE

ROM Date 10/28/09

Radio version 2.04.50.22_2

Protocol version 15.26.50.07U

Now i need to know is there any kind of upgrades available or not....
[HD2 General] freeincolorado:
According to your post the flash size is 512mb. That would be a Euro hd2 and not a T-Mo U.S. device. You should check out the other hd2 forum. There is loads of good info there.
[HD2 General] rlacsamana1989:
Yeah you have a euro HD2 not a t-mobile one. Your rom also shows it as T-mobiles stock rom is 2.13. But your better off changing to a custom rom as they are more stable than the stock roms out now. But be sure to not get the rom from the t-mobile hd2 rom section.
