[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atento:
Hi everyone...

There is a problem with my nexus one.

I downloaded some clients for MSN like MSN Talk, Hi MSN, Meebo and eBuddy, but I receive alerts from these clients only when screen is turn on. If i turn off the screen, I never receive alerts.

Then, when I turn on the screen, I receive all alerts at same time.

Have any way to enable alerts when screen is turn off?

Sorry for my english :D

EDIT: The same happens with Gmail, Google Talk...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lifeflayer:
Are you using wifi? Maybe your wifi sleep policy is set to disconnect when the screen is off.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atento:
Thanks for your answer.

Yes, I'm using wifi, but my wifi sleep policy is set to never disconnect.

EDIT: I made a test.

I set wifi sleep policy to "Never".

Then, from other computer in same network, I executed the command "ping" to network address from nexus. I received answers.

Then, I turn off the screen and repeat the same test and now I didn't receive answers!

Why the OS don't honor my settings? Is it a hardware or software issue?

There's the video, guys.. have fun and be careful!

written instructions are as follows:

OK! so you've decided to take on the menial task of installing a custom rom, to make your mytouch... well for lack of a better term, YOURS! If you've had a G1 or a Mytouch 3g in the past, as I have, then the process is much the same..

Step 1

Download your rom from the website to your computer *durrrrrr* also make sure your device is in normal operating mode, and also download the update.zip for clockwork recovery if you dont already have it from HERE

Step 2

Copy the rom and update.zip for clockwork from your computer to your phone's SD card root directory, also known as /sdcard

Step 3

Power off phone

Step 4

Power onto Fastboot mode with Volume Down button and Power

Step 5

Get into recovery mode by pressing volume down once fastboot loads, and then power to select

Step 6

Once in recovery basic mode, where you see the triangle with red exclamation, hold volume up and press power again

Step 7

While in recovery mode, hit volume down to get to apply update.zip which will put you in clockwork recovery as long as the update.zip for clockwork recovery is on your sd card

Step 8

After applying your update.zip, you're going to scroll down to install zip from sd card using volume down button and then power to select

Step 9

Once again, go to install zip from sdcard and press power

Step 10

Select your zip in the menu, then press power

Step 11

Wait for zip to install and hope to hell the zip is signed correctly and not damaged :P

Step 12

After zip installs, back out to main menu and reboot phone!

Step 13

Wait for Rom to load 100%.. WATCH YOUR LOGCAT TO VERIFY NO BOOTLOOPS!!!

Done!!

​
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] serialtoon:
If you download "QuickBoot" from the market you can boot directly to "Recovery" bypassing the bootloader. :-)

Re: [how-to] put a custom rom on your slide!!!

I'm assuming this is a tutorial for future rom releases, correct?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
well there's already 2 out at this time, with slideroot2 and the legend rom.. there will be tons more, i'm sure.. so yeah, this is a generalized install procedure for such things
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sino8r:
I like the addition of the ADB & logcat steps! Nice touch, man...:D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
heh thanks :) i want users to be able to see what they did and begin to learn how to fix future mistakes lol
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] adambenjamin:
I love the legend ROM but I needed the keyboard one night so I switched to slidemeroot2.

Any chance for Keyboard lights coming?

Also, couldn't load titanium backup in the legend. Any suggestions there?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
to get titanium to load right, you have to install a different superuser.apk than the one that's stock. i dunno why exactly. also, legend is a BETA so it'll be updated soon by eugene, it is by no means a final version
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] adambenjamin:
Thank you. It is a pretty sweet beta.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Hate to state the obvious, but you should mention that this requires your MT3G Slide to be rooted... you know peeps will come out the wood works asking "why cant I do this!"
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
ummmm fermunky, why not watch video at 0:15 through 0:25?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Touche my friend, I didn't even watch the video, since I am not rooted yet anyways :(, but you know some people will still attempt to follow your directions and not watch the video :) Not everyone has good intuition :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
lol its cool man... if you're anywhere close to gulfport ms or are willing to drive here, i'll root your slide and eng build and legend it for free...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Wish I could, but I am waiting daily at the beaches of St Pete to catch the tar balls coming in!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
LOl you gonna manufacture yourself some gasoline??
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] lviv73:
Does this mean that I don't have to root first to flash roms? Can i boot to recovery and flash to eugene's already rooted rom?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
once you downgrade to the eng build, you can flash any rom for the slide... you have to root and then flash that downgrade though before you can do anything to it
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
When will a permanent recovery flash come available? Only a minor inconvenience since it only is two extra steps using the stock recovery... well three including copying the update.zip over.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
whenever the spl comes, is when it comes :P i dont have a date/time for ya, devs are working on it... i know one in particular made a bit of progress yesterday, so we'll see what happens when it happens
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] zachjf:
Ok, I tried to install the SlideM ROM and and ran into an issue I'm not really sure how to fix.

I followed your video and instructions to the letter but on reboot the phone stopped at the first T-Mobile flash screen and froze. Using adb devices I come up with this;

C:\androidsdk\tools>adb devices

List of devices attached

HT069PS00585 offline

HT069PS00585 device

C:\androidsdk\tools>adb reboot

error: more than one device and emulator

...and the phone is locked onto that first t-mobile screen. I tried adb reboot, adb reboot-bootloader and still get nothing, even tried a hard reboot by pulling the battery to get to recovery mode and re-installed starting from step 1.....really hoping I didn't brick it. Any thoughts on why it happened or how I can go about fixing it?

***UPDATE*** went back and tried a method found in another thread, i.e., wiped data using Android recovery mode instead of Clockwork recovery, then re-installed SlideM. Worked perfectly on the first try
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Yeah, not sure why the clockwork recovery wipe is not working for some people... maybe it's because it's a temp recovery state? I just used the wipe function straight from the hboot screen.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sl0play:
Thank You!! Worked perfect.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] televate:
So I tried flashing the SlideM as well, flashed in clockwork recovery, wiped first before flash in standard recovery, and when i reboot i run logcat and get this error:

- exec 'system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -

Hope this isn't a brick. I will try to flash another rom.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] htcclay:
This is only a Test...key

Hello...

Would anyone be so kind to tell me if the testkey's used for Dream/Mytouch

in re-signing an update are adequate for the Slide? (Old School Auto-Sign)

You guy's rock...

In Christ

Clay
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
hi clay! nice to see ya man :) i've been using the autosign bat for a while now and it works perfectly fine for signing my little builds here and there, also apk's so i'd say give it a shot whats the worst that can happen?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] htcclay:
I suppose you're right.:)

Thank-you for the quick response!

(Awesome "How-to" video's by the way.)

Really good job!

In Christ

Clay
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
thanks! i appreciate the feedback man! oh and let me know how the signer goes on slide stuffs.. oh and any testing you need, im your man :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] eugene373:
Yes you can Resign the Update using them.. However, if you want to use an update.zip from the Stock recovery that has Test-keys.. How you sign them have Changed, as signing the old way will give you ( Fail to verify Whole-Signature ).. But, if flashing from CLockWorkMod Recovery, you'll be fine signing the old way..

Hope that Help's,

~Eugene

whre do i get the clockwork recovery zip file??

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jonulf:
Clockwork recovery isn't working for me, I've used this method to push SMR5 twice now, but it only adds tethering, none of the UI changes or dropped stock apps. It looks exactly the same as TMos UI and everything. In fact, I can't even get to the clockwork recovery without pushing the various files via eugenes rooting instructions. In regular recovery whenever I apply sdcard:update.zip it just tells me signature fails and installation aborted. I've pushed the clockwork update.zip onto the sd card numerous times with no luck.

And I haven't noticed the wipe function on the hboot screen...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] alexxgee914:
was wondering how i can put the froyo rom from eugene?.

can anybody pm or reply back.he said there would be no support.

but im just wondering how to put it on my slide.i rooted it using his method but have no rom on yet.he said there would be an update for it later so just want to put it on my slide for now.

im a noob btw so be easy on me.lol.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
watch the video and go step by step
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] alexxgee914:
im guessing i need to flash the eng-release first.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
what the eng release does is allow you to do run clockwork recovery without having to use a computer to get into it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] alexxgee914:
so i flashed eugenes froyo rom but its really buggy as he said.

so anybody know how to take the rom off and give me suggestions on a rom that has sense?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
to take a rom off, you wipe data and flash a new rom... and a good one with sense, well you've got the hero to slide rom, which im running now, or youve got legend2slide which is pretty good too, then you've got wes's stuff, take your pick... or maybe you could read slide root bible thread, which on the first page tells you which roms we have available that have eclair (nonsense), basic sense roms such as legend, and espresso roms like stock, as well as froyo roms..
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Viper87227:
I thought it was advised to not flash this anymore? I don't have eng on my phone, should I, or is there another way to do this? I tried getting into clockwork the same way I rooted, but adb wont find any devices when booting into recovery :confused:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
eng is safe to flash. its not the cause of the problems
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] cnutile:
Question from a NOOB

Ok, so I rooted my HTC Espresso. Loaded Eng. Got Superuser and flashed Eugene's latest ROM with 2.2 support. Was buggy so I reflashed to the stock Espresso ROM. Lost Root. Rerooted. ;)

I really would like to know what suggestions people have for the latest STABLE rom for the Espresso.

What I'd like to have working:

Swype

Apps2SD

Rom Manager able to partion the SD for Apps2SD

Wi-Fi (maybe even tethering?!)

Suggestions?? I have spent more time than I should, or care to admit on this... But it HAS been fun!!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] falken98:
I'm running SLIDE MR1: Version 4 Final *7/11/2010*, it has everything you asked for and has been 100% stable for me.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
its already rooted, so dont worry about that... the rom to find out what it is, you go to about phone in settings.. usualyl it tells you which rom it is there.. and as this phone hasnt been out very long, there's not very many devs working on it so its gonna be hard to get one without anything wrong.. with the exception of ones like smr 5 rc1
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] taeketsu:
double post
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] taeketsu:
So do you recommend just figuring out how to unroot and go back to the stock rom right now? I really don't know anything about Android, I feel like I should start from scratch instead of trying to flash things now and screw something up. I want Sense and full functionality, but I don't know how performance is with the stock rom.

It looks like it was flashed to MR1 v4..which I've seen here I believe.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
lol since the nand isnt unlocked, you cant really screw things up... if you think you did, just go wipe all and reflash a rom from the beginning. that is all :P
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] taeketsu:
Well anytime I try to go into recovery mode or try to back up my ROM, the screen just shows a big red question mark and then I can't do anything with it. Any idea what that means?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
yeah, actually hold volume up and then press power..
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] taeketsu:
It just says a few things including "could not find package to install" and reboots automatically. Does it have something to do with the guy I got the phone from using a different SD card to root and now I'm using a new one I just put in?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] falken98:
Throw it away and get an iphone.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] taeketsu:
I'm not stupid..I'm a windows mobile user who just got his first Android phone. All the guides here cater to those who have already flashed their phone. If you're not gonna try to help then don't reply :rolleyes:

For WM, you don't have to format an SD card, hell, you don't even need an SD card to flash new roms. Its completely different, and much easier than Android actually. So how am I supposed to know without asking questions?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] elliotshoe:
Yeah it does. You need to have update.zip in the root folder of your sd card first. I've uploaded the one sitting in my sdk folder. You can also use the one in slide root.zip from eugene's method. Then do the recovery boot.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dion20:
So I flashed my rom and now when I boot up I get stuck at the mytouch slide screen, I tried a factory reset through the boot loader, but that didnt work, I also tried to load up the custom bootloader, but adb only recognizes the device for a second then goes away, I'm kinda stuck here, and it would be nice to get my phone running again, I hope I didnt brick it...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
lol you didnt brick trust me.. its close to impossible without an unlocked spl.. what rom did you try flashing? we'll start with that
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dion20:
good to hear.

I flashed the mycy 2.2 froyo rom, and the steps I followed were the ones in here, once I rebooted it got stuck on the MTS screen.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
mycy booted perfectly for me, did you make sure to wipe all before installing?? that can turn into a big problem if you dont
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dion20:
ummm, no I didnt, it wasnt in the steps on the first page, and how big of a problem exactly?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
meh just reboot into recovery and wipe all then reinstall rom.. no biggie if you do that
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dion20:
into clockwork recovery? I cant load it now, the loop only shows my device for a second, then it goes away so I cant push the update.zip to get into clockwork
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
im guessing you never did the engineering build flash huh... yeah thats also a requirement pretty much. next time you have the ability to get into clockwork you should DEFINITELY flash engineering build then after that, you'll be able to get to clockwork everytime
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dion20:
i did not, so by next time i can get into clockwork what does that mean? How would I go about getting in there?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
have to do a manual push liek you did to root again, sorry :( but once you do the ota.zip > update.zip step adn get back to clockwork, flash teh eng build then boot into it, go back to recovery and flash your rom AFTER WIPING
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dion20:
how can I do a manual push if the loop doesnt see my device? I an see my device in the loop when its stuck at the splash screen.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
basiclaly its like rooting again.. do what you can to get the phone to be recognized then you can do the flash thing
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dion20:
any ideas on how to get the phone to be recognized?

I'm guessing that USB Debugging isnt enabled, is there a way I can push it thru the adb cmd line?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] taeketsu:
First and foremost thanks, I still get the same messages though after putting update.zip onto the root of my card.

"failed to verifily whole-file signature..signature verification failed..failed to install package"

I'm beginning to wish I never bought a rooted phone. Would have been way easier if I didn't have to try to learn all this backwards. I need to return to the factory rom, and I saw the guides here but first of all I need to be able to get to recovery mode.. phone was rooter by previous owner, I just popped in an SD card, never had it partitioned or anything - in case that matters.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
ok i had to do this earlier when rooting beamondidit's phone.. basically go to the simpleroot 1.3 files, download them, and run rootme2 follow the instructions to get back to clockwork
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] taeketsu:
I got into recovery via Quickboot, when I try to apply the update.zip I still get the same message about the signature failing. Can anyone explain why it's giving that error?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
becasue you didnt flash eng build correctly
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] milenko23:
lol easiest part of my adventure learning command prompt and rooting my first android. Running cyanogen on my slide now! Woot!

The update.zip link is broken.

Thanks to the person who updated it a few pages back.

TY!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] esterner:
update.zip Link

I still can't find a valid link for the update.zip file for clockwork recovery. I have the ENG rom flashed onto my device with cm6 on the sd waiting for install but I can't find a valid link anywhere for update.zip. Can someone find a working link or host a new dl.

****UPDATE**** Nevermind everything is good and my cm6 is running fine. I was overlooking something common...

Clockwork recovery black screen

First, thanks for all the great work you guys do! I have successfully rooted, and then installed the ENG build on my mytouch 3g slide. I have followed all directions to the letter, however, once I boot into clockwork recovery I see the main menu, but when I try to access any of the submenus (partitions menu for example) it goes to a blank black screen. My only option from there is to back out to the main screen. No matter which menu I select I get a black screen, and have to back out to the main clockwork menu. any suggestions?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dbzfanatic:
Are you pressing the power key ot the trackball (button between menu and back)? Power just turns the screen off now, trackball is to select.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jcindy:
Thanks!

That was exactly it. Thanks a lot! Fully rooted and now running CM 6! Now, will the same process work for flashing the accompanying google tools to my phone? Things like the market app?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dbzfanatic:
To flash new roms or any flashable zip just go into clockwork, select the zip from your sdcard (pretty sure you can do this) and allow it to flash. Then boot your phone normally and enjoy your newly-flashed goodness.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] highersky:
you touched me :)

thanks for your sharing,i upgrade the clockwork recovery version successfully.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] tvdang7:
Is this method still the best way?i just noticed it is a bit dated.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dbzfanatic:
This is more or less still the only way of getting a custom ROM on the phone, it does require you already be rooted however, as well as having the ENG build flashed.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] danwguy:
OK, so I just recently installed celb 2.4 and I love it, fastest rom I've tried. My only problem is the dialer for it. Is there a way I can get the old dialer back? The one where you can spell out the persons name and it shows their name to just click on. If this is the wrong section for posting this question I appologize, I'm still pretty new here. Thank you for your help in advance.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Kakarot:
My phone is working great but sometimes apps won't work or even remove easily to reinstall...I took on to much at once and probally botched a step somewhere. So I tried all wipes, factory reset and reflashed my radio and rom....but after I set up my phone, some of my apps and settings where still there....

Is it easy to restore to day 1 and then instals the apps 1 at a time? Is this worth the time or effort or even make sense? I sure wish my iPad had swype, lol

Thx in advance
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h3ckman:
Are you referring to the default apps, ie gmail amazon etc?

If so, these are on an optional .Zip install on some custom roms but are included for others.

And as for swype, the beta has opened again on their website. Just in case you didn't have it. Ha
