something seemed to have happened to my superuser permissions.. ive tested out adb shell on command prompt but no permission is requested. i tested this out with quick boot (which worked BEFORE flashing legend) but now it doesn't seem to work because it needs permisson first.. has anyone encountered this yet? how to fix?

EDIT: should have searched.. anyways i put the superuser.apk in my sd card and installed it into my phone using apk installer and then it works fine.

Hi,

I have a HTC HD Mini, purchased recently, and I found MS Voice command is not preinstalled. through some searches on the net, found a cab, but installation end up with errors. can anyone look into the same and give solution for it.

thanks in advance
[HD Mini Themes and Apps] darne:
It works for me...
[HD Mini Themes and Apps] benbics:
if anybody can provide me with the cab file will be highly appreciable.
[HD Mini Themes and Apps] Pip3:
Hi

I've tried Voice Command too, with limited success.

I tells me that it hasn't installed, and there's no icon on windows screen...

But using file explorer, the voicecmd.exe file is there, and it seems to work.

However that's hardly a helpful "handsfree" method.

Anyone any ideas how to install it properly - or how to get a usable icon (and preferably add to the Home screen).

Sorry if this is obvious, but I'm still trying to get familiar with this phone.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vylle:
Hey guys this is just a question im asking based on something i've noticed. so plz dont flame me for my ignorance if you have the answer

I'm a big fan of the TouchSlide2.1 Roms that have been coming out for G1 because they look good + they come with theme changer which to me is a huge win (i give a shout out to king on this1 :D)but unfortunately, ALL of the touchslide 2.1 roms for G1 lack bluetooth regardless of all the cool things poppin up

ultimately i just want to know why is it that noone has been able to successfully make BT work for touchSlide Roms. Should i give up hope and just stick to CM5 or will there be a slide rom that has all the features of a traditional AOSP? - if im wrong and there is 1 out there, let me know but otherwise would love an answer
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r3s-rt:
I believe that Bluetooth has never worked for any Sense ROM. Not just the Slide ones.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mejorguille:
Sense was never built for the G1 so all that we have are ports from different hardware (ex: hero, legend, slide). Since they are different hardware, that means that different drivers are needed. If you want to backport the bluetooth driver from the CM kernel and push it to a sense kernel then be my guest.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vylle:
hmm.. isnt king's expresso rom a sence rom? but it has Bluetooth that much i am 100% sure. unless he has something to say about that

[HD2 General] Antonios76:
I have one serious problem since yesterday. When i am on call, the screen is always black (ok i can talk), but when i remove the phone out of my ear the screen remains black. Sometimes if i press the hard buttons then the screen appears properly, i place it in my ear, but it is does not become black again. Sometimes even my hard buttons are not working, only the end button but at this case i end the call. This is a problem with the light sensor/proximity /maybe something else. Do you know anyone what can i do ?.
[HD2 General] demon-resident:
There are several solutions to try:

1. If you are using screen protector (bad screen protector) - it can cause "proximity sensor" to be problematic.

2. If you are using some cooked ROM...try to flash original ROM.

3. may be 1+2 can be a cause....
[HD2 General] bRkiX:
many programs can take control over this..

like s2u2, phonealaram...

chech if you changed some options on those two.
[HD2 General] Antonios76:
Is there any way to fix this problem using the registry ?. But i dont have the initial values of the registry.
[HD2 General] demon-resident:
I'm suggesting you to Hard Reset your device. and Install one by one all your softwares until you find the "BAD" one, but all this is in case that this is not a ROM/Hardware problem.

You need to start eliminate the problems one by one.

:confused:

ok, i have been using the Mixhdj recently on the hd2 over the last couple of days testing the mp3's that came preinstalled with mobile device

today i have deleted most of the original mp3's and transfered some of my mp3's onto the storage card using WMDC. now every time i open the app and as i click the load mp3 (this usually lists all the mp3 on the mobile) i get this error "a problem has occurred with mixhdj.exe" AHHHH:mad:

i get this message a few times and after that every time i click load mp3 it just exits the program..i have un & inistalled the app, removed MY mp3 but i still get the same problem..why is this happening ?

i love the HD2 but it is very worrying when something goes wrong and this is not the first time its happened . i dont wanna hard reset yet but does anyone have any solutions, im willing to try a few things out.

on researching this error, apparenlty there is particular way to transfer mp3's onto the device with the music tab on display and this prevents touchflo from freezing. well im on a uk tmob stock rom 1.72.x.x so im not sure if this is an old bug thats been rectified? also when transferring mp3 some of mine do not contain images, anf might have special characters& punctuation does this affects the music function and be the root of the cause??

thanks for readinghope it makes sense & hope you can help:cool:
[HD2 General] jonstarkk:
any problems accessing those mp3s with the music player?

have you tried removing the dj app and the reinstalling it?
[HD2 General] Moschino02:
yes, i can play the mp3's via the music player and tried to reinstall app.

why did this error occur when i transferred my mp3's to the device?
[General Topics] mitchgdodge:
I recently got a new myTouch 3G Slide Black. It runs really nice besides some of the error messages I have encountered. Also the battery draining sync abilities, but besides some obstacles it seems like an overall stable phone. 2.1 runs very smooth on it (even with an older model processor, which I was not happy about). But as far as hardware is concerned I feel like this phone can break at any moment. The keyboard grinds on the keypad as it slides up and the plastic casing is not very respectable.

So I still have 14 days to decide if I want to keep this phone, or I could go HD2? What do you all think?

P.S. we need to figure out how to ROOT the Slide on a Mac!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
I think this might have actually worked, I left my sever set to what it was by default but removed those last 2 lines like you suggested and gps worked a treat.

Do remember to backup though people if you try this, just in case.

Edit: after further testing it didn't seem to make any difference.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stormfury_2:

The first thing you will want to do is learn to use the search feature of the forum. It is really good and it will lead you to all of the info you will ever need. It will also save you a lot of grief, you will find that you will get much more helpful responses if you first try to help yourself, chances are your question has already been asked and answered 100 times.

Now that that is out of the way, regaw_leinad has a step by step tutorial on how to root the Hero. It's located in the CDMA ANDROID DEVELOPMENT forum. Easy enough to find though. Let me know if you can't find it and I will try and post a link.

Oh yeah, Welcome to the Hero Forums! Enjoy!

If they managed to ACTUALLY brick their phone, and not just did something they didn't know how to undo, it's cause they either can't or didn't read/search/askfor help.

It's damn near impossible to brick these phones, and honestly I don't even think you can brick them in the rooting process.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatguythatdid:
Yeah you have to downgrade. It's just not possible to root the .6 version yet
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prios914:
Your welcome liftedngifted1 and the guide I was referring to from regaw_leinad was the one that thatguythatdid pointed you too. I'm new to the forums so I do not have the ability to post links yet.

As for Roms, if you are like many of the users of this forum, you will probably develop a case of ORD - Obsessive Rom-updating Disorder.

There are plenty of good roms to try out you just want to make sure you do your Nand backups and be sure to get Titanium Backup from the market as it will make it easy to restore the apps that you like to use on a regular basis, it will save you time.

Enjoy. :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unCoRrUpTeD:
I'm confused. You said you had 2.1 and then you said you have 1.6. Sprint did not release 1.6 for the Hero. The phone originally had 1.5 and then they released an updated version of 1.5. And last month they released 2.1 followed by a patch for it. If you have 2.1 follow the steps from regaw's post or goto unrevoked.com from your phone.

[General Questions and Answers] crisstina:
Hello all!

I've used Ringo with my Qtek 9100 and my HTC touch viva , and it used to work like a charm.

But now, I have a Samsung Omnia i900 and the app doesn't work very well. It won't let me assign tones for SMS and ringtone for each contact. It is like the app can't read from my contacts.

I have also tried copying from my old phone, the RingoContacts file, and it didn't work either.

My two questions:

1. Did anyone find a workaround for ringo to work in Samsung Omnia i900?

2. Is there an application like Ringo that assigns individual ringtones and sms tones for the contacts I select AND doesn't save that info in contact's card?

Help is highly appreciated!!!

Have a nice day!

[XPERIA X10 General] xxsashixx:
Ok I got the X10 a few days ago.. loving it.. now..

How do I extend the life of the battery? I know theres a ton of topics on this but I can't seem to get more than 12hours..

- I use StartupAuditor and pretty much stopped most apps from running at start.

- I use ADW Launcher

- I use JuiceDefender

- Timeout - Screen timeout after 15s, lock after 2mins

- Schedule - Enable APN/Wifi for 1m every 15secs (for Moxie Sync/Mail - Push)

- Screen - Leave APN/Wifi enabled while screen unlocked (So it disables it after it has been locked)

Any help is appreciated.
[XPERIA X10 General] wingz85:
After a couple of weeks your battery life should get better with out you having to do anything. Just be patient and let it fully discharge before recharging. Also restart your phone after a full charge and after using wifi and gps.

Discharing a battery is bad isnt it?
[XPERIA X10 General] Veeger:
Well your problem may lay here

"- Schedule - Enable APN/Wifi for 1m every 15secs (for Moxie Sync/Mail - Push)"

Your using Moxier which other X10 users have identified as a huge power user and according to you, your also using APN/Wifi for a minute every 15 seconds..........so it's essentially never turning the APN/Wifi off :-S

Hope this helps!
[XPERIA X10 General] Veeger:
Also fully discharging your battery every now and then is actually beneficial for your battery.
[XPERIA X10 General] Terul:
Quite certain the 1 minute every 15 seconds is a typo ;)

Juicedefender defaults to 1 minute ever 15 minutes.

I removed ATK and Juicedefender, I found they only screwed up things in the phone and after removing them I noticed no change in battery life. (If anything, my battery life increased after removing ATK)

The best things for battery I have found to be.

-- Alternate launcher (I use ADW, I think Helix is better for battery performance but ADW has more options).

-- First 5 charges, discharge battery completely and do this again once every month or so

-- After full charge, power cycle phone (Turn off/on)

-- Use quick settings to turn off GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth when you are not using them

-- Make sure you back out of programs when you're done with them. This will close most applications so they are not running in the background. Certain apps (like a dolphin browser) have exit functions under more options. This is useful as back will just go to the previous page.

Note: Force closing applications which you see open in the background may use more battery as it may just start up again. Constantly killing and opening the program will use processor/battery power. Whereas many programs, when open in the background, are not using active process power and Android OS will pause/stop applications which are not in active use, by default.

From my experience..

I find 3G has better battery life than WiFi, unless you are constantly browsing. When 3G is active, but you're not browsing the web and stuff, I find it doesn't use much battery. WiFi, however, uses up loads of battery when the phone is idle.

As per my last question, discharging is bad isn't it? With these batteries, you have to constantly charge them so they don't loose life

Edit: Also.. if I press home button or back button that doesn't close the app.. most apps don't close like that, so I have to use ATK to kill it.. is it fine to leave apps running in the bg like that?

Edit: So I should uninstall ATK?
[XPERIA X10 General] moula21:
I also JUST got an X10 about 2 weeks ago! My battery life was so bad at first, and I ended up trying most of these battery saving apps. But to be honest, I found that they did more damage than good.

I now have everything I don't use turned off. Bluetooth, WiFi (when I'm not home at least) etc. Just skim through settings and turn off anything you don't think you'll use. And I restart my phone every morning and I get 30-50 hours out of it, depending on use. It is definitely getting better with time too. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Terul:
For ATK, I would uninstall it as generally killing tasks does more harm than good. If you use it intermittently and only when necessary (and not use auto-killer) you could keep it installed.

As for apps running in the background..

-- If you press back, it should close most apps (not all, but well designed apps should)

--The Android OS is designed to pause/stop apps/processes which are not being actively used by the user and will close them eventually if left unused

-- ATK is generally only freeing RAM which is not important. It is not like Windows in the sense that more free RAM = faster speeds. It is a lot more like, more free ram = more wasted ram.

Here is a link to where I found out most of this information.

http:/geekfor.me/faq/you-shouldnt-be-using-a-task-killer-with-android/

As for WiFi sleep policy, thanks for pointing this out. It seems that my phone is already set to sleep WiFi when the screen is turned off. I find this weird as I have found significantly reduced battery life when I turn WiFi on, even when my phone is mostly unused/idle.
[XPERIA X10 General] Mano1982:

[XPERIA X10 General] Terul:
Hey Hoss,

I can confirm that force-closing/killing apps seems to be worse for battery life than leaving them alone. Backing out of apps usually will stop any cpu usage, but leave the app running. Killing/closing them will just result in more cpu power to run it when necessary.

As for standby vs usage - I have the opposite experience. The battery life on my x10 lasts a lot longer when I am working all day and not using my phone very much.
