[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bangonthedoortwice:
ok this is what i'm going to do....

1. Boot into Fastboot (Power on the phone holding the camera button) This will either show a screen with dancing androids or a "rainbow" splash. Here you will find the hboot/radio version:

* radio 1.x: You will need to upgrade this to a 2.x radio before running this process.. please upgrade and re-do this step (Ie. verify you see the updated radio in fastboot before continuing) <<<<How do i do this?

* radio 2.x: You may press MENU+SEND+END at the same time and proceed (unless hboot-1.33.2005 is installed; indicating you already have dangerSPL)

2. Copy DangerSPL (spl-signed.zip), CM 5.0.x, and gapps-ds-ERE36B (& Ebi1 port if required) to the root of your sdcard.

3. Reboot/Boot into your custom recovery by holding down the 'home' key before the G1 splash appears.

4. Make a Nandroid Backup (ext not required) (recommended for upgrading users, not required for freshly-rooted users) <<<i don't need to do this?

5. Flash DangerSPL (spl-signed.zip). It will install and then ask you to reboot to finish the installation, so reboot. It will then finish installing and reboot into recovery so you can flash your ROM. <<<so i flash by pressing alt+f?

6. Once back into recovery Wipe Data/Factory Reset <<< alt+w?

7. Flash CM 5.0.x THEN gapps-ds-ERE36B (& Ebi1 port if required); then reboot (Boot may take longer than normal) <<< i don't understand this bit.

8. Login to Android/Google as per usual

as you can see i'm kinda in a mess here, any info would be so grateful.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kathi17:
Do a search for Amon Ra's recovery in this forum, and flash that per his instructions in the first post. Then when you hold home while starting your phone, (keep holding home), you will boot into recovery. From there, you will be able to wipe, format, patition, etc. your SD card, and do a number of other things as well.

Other than that, follow Cyanogen's instructions as posted earlier in this thread.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bangonthedoortwice:
ok thanks, but just before i do i have come across this:

"Quick instructions

1. Nand + ext backup <dont need to do this.

2. Wipe <-- that is up to you, if you don't and it goes all screwy... wipe everything

3. flash FR-CM-5.0.8-DS-AnySPL_S.zip

4. assuming you want/need google addon flash Google Addon: ERE36B from CM5.0.8 OP

5. Magic 32A/EBI1 users should flash the kernel update in CM5.0.8 OP

what do you think?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kathi17:
Amon Ra's recovery will make all of that much easier. You will need to wipe data, extended and dalvik cache. AFAIK, this is the only recovery that will wipe all three. It is also the only recovery which will back up ext with the new CM ROMs.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bangonthedoortwice:
ok, well i tried rebooting my phone, camera + power and then pressing alt +f but it didnt do anything, although did say i had the correct radio.

i think i'm gonna find someone to do this and ill pay them lol.

things like 'flash' i don't know how to do that yano, i guess i'm like the biggest newb.

No worries, thanks anyway.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asb123:
sounds good, but it depends what spl you have, you may need to flash a different "any spl" version of cyanogen if you dont have and dont want to risk the "upgrade" to the death spl

Allow me to repeat...

DO NOT INSTALL DEATHSPL! It is POINTLESS and does nothing except RISK BRICKING YOUR PHONE.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bangonthedoortwice:
ok ibcoder i will do that, does that mean i do not need to flash a radio to my g1? also what are the commands to 'flash'?

do you have cyanogen 2.1? do you think its worth going from root to 2.1?

thanks..
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bangonthedoortwice:
Just wanted to say thanks for the help i recieved.

I got 2.1 working and didnt notice anything different from my original root besides things that didnt work, no facebook, no market, and tether didnt work so i went back to the normal root, shame it had a really good screen saver!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDomino:
I was wondering if one of the devs could create a phone feature like on the BlackBerry devices called Smart Dialing. Now I'm not talking about Smart Dialing as in putting in names and the phone filters the contacts, I'm talking about where you enter your company's telephone number and the number of digits in extensions and all you do to call someone at your company is dial the extension. Could someone do that? Here is the RIM KB on how it works.

Search blackberry.com for KB02765

I am currently running Froyo on my Desire, but one thing i REALLY miss is the HTC Camera, as it is far superior to the stock Camera app.

Does anyone know a good alternative? or preferably an APK that will let me install the HTC camera?

[Desire Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
There is one called Camera ZX I think, check that out.
[Desire Themes and Apps] bmbaker:
there is FX camera and retro camera both are free and quite nice :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] th3:
From those I've tried on my own device and that of my friends, Camera Pro, Camera Zoom FX, FX Camera and Vignette are the better apps. They all have differences though, and limitations. They take the same pic slightly differently, sometimes very differently. The most sharpness, visual acuity and the least noise in taken images I've found with the stock HTC camera app, but the best colour reproduction, white balance and contrast I found with Camera Pro. In daylight and at night, these aspects looked almost indistinguishable from what my eyes were seeing of the objects. The best overall app was Camera Pro for me, but, it didn't have the high quality shot settings which others did, and that made a big difference for me. Enough to not use it.

I am having problems flashing my X10 using XP and Virtualbox. I get to the stage where I need to unplug my phone and shut it down for 5 secs but then when I plug in the usb and press the back button it will not flash? I assume its because in Virtualbox under Devices the X10 is not unticked as a USB device??

Anyone any ideas?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mk67:
I have many ideas. But the only way to flash with linux is to ask massively jar dev to compile it for linux.

At the moment, I 've also done a script for linux, it's a quite fun but we can't flash without the jar because actual jar file use MS usb drviers we can't use under linux.

Virtual box is not a so good idea. Surely it works, but there not enough time between the moment when you plug the phone into usb and the time you need to put it into boot process.

The only way is to flash under MS. :(

I have personally mount virtual raw disk of MS installation, taht way you can use as real machine or as virtual.

After that u can try my script, it's not perfect but it is pretty useful.

[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysAdmNj:
I was originally thinking of leaving AT&T for Verizon to get the upcoming Droid X but not so sure I want to lose the grandfathered unlimited data plan I have and I also got to admit I like the voice/data simultaneous ability of AT&T's 3G network. With that being said, how bad am I going to miss push email, led/custom notifications? How easy is it to root aria and load whatever I want onto it?
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dnasty777:
Just picked up the Aria today coming from the 9700. Not going to lie, I already miss push email/notifications but not enough to make me think this is a bad decision. This phone truely is pretty awesome. The Android OS is wayyyy better than the OS 5 on the 9700. I haven't tried rooting yet. I fugure I'll wait until the new phone factor wears off.

Bottom line: I'd make the switch again.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ausmike:
Hello everyone;

Sorry am NEW to this forum and WOW what a find.

I am a very mature GSM USER ( yes kinda says my age but been using GSM phone since SUITE-CAASE SIZE MODELS OF MOTOROLLA !!!) ... so have pulled apart few of those GSM codes in my life time

So to the topic on this thread - Blackberry VS Andriod > not that I want to be against any CUSTOM / PROPRIETARY code etc.... but I like the idea of OPEN and USER BASED code developments for GENERAL USE

Andoid has few 'pains" in my view ,,,, just not sure how to fix these:

1) looong leadtime to 'call connect' from dial/send buttons ( yes there is a carriewr componant etc ,,, but keeping APPLES 3 APPLES ,,, android is lots slower

2) Blacberry gives the added "custom Encrypt" for all comms ( havent come across these in adnriod YET!)

3) Lots of "brands" to choose - so often confusing marketing blah blah ,,, often confuses people/users of some features and functions in Andriod where is BLACBERY does do a great job of educating funtions features etc on their OS

in summary , ATT will CARY OVER your data & voice Plans , dont matter what phone you go to ... so in short you can choose any phone aslong as its GSM

hpe this helps < sorry for extra bits aboce pls ingore>

cheers

This is the solution I am using... my home isp is in the stone age still and will not push pop mail to Google, so there is some slight delay as Google polls my pop account roughly every 15 min, but as soon as it shows up in gmail it gets pushed to the phone. The only other downside is that you are stuck using the gmail client.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] edude03:
I've been meaning to create a custom recovery image for the X10 since before the root was available (it didn't matter if it could be flashed since I knew the day would come eventually, or I'd just use JTAG)

Anyway, after a little poking around, I found out that the recovery partition isn't available while the system is running:

# cat /proc/mtd

dev: size erasesize name

mtd0: 00440000 00020000 "appslog"

mtd1: 06f40000 00020000 "cache"

mtd2: 160a0000 00020000 "system"

mtd3: 1d100000 00020000 "userdata"

So I think the first thing we are going to have to do is compile a custom kernel so that we can define the MTD partition map, however without the boot partition being available we won't be able to boot it unless we can get kexec running.

I'll keep this updated as I make progress though.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Droid1230:
Any progress? Have you been able to connect with JTAG? Could a custom recovery be flashed while the phone is in flash mode?

Thanks in advance for the info!

I think he's talking bout replacing android's regular recovery (unlike the xRecovery that we're using), just that the partition isn't available when system is running.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
thats exactly what we was trying all the time a few month ago. You can look in the custom rom development thread, we were not lucky enough to get own kernel running through kexec or even through own usbloader. I hope you have more luck.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] typhune:
For reference, this is a non-rooted phone. Updated yesterday, and battery was draining like a crazy. From 100% to 25% overnight. Popped on logcat to see what was going on, and there was continuous GPS errors. Rebooted, and seemed to go away. Now the issue is with Wimax. Try this... Turn on 4G, then turn it off. I'm getting this error message every 2 seconds:

06-29 10:17:14.277 E/Wimax ( 163): <DC CONNECT> IO error: msg='/127.0.0.1:7771 - Connection refused'
06-29 10:17:16.282 I/Wimax ( 163): <DC> Try to establish a connection to DC server.

I have a suspicion that this i aiding in my battery drain. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] destry:
Today I went into a 4g coverage area but the coverage was spotty so I turned off 4g. I started getting these same errors every 2 seconds.

I turned 4g back on and the errors went away but I still had intermittent coverage so I turned 4g off and they started right back up. I rebooted the phone with 4g off and when the phone came back up, 4g was off and the errors were gone.

So I guess if you need to turn off 4g, reboot after you do it or the phone will constantly try to connect to the disabled 4g service every 2 seconds.

After the update I seem to be getting better battery life and I'm not sure if this made it worse or not because I didn't leave it broken for too long. However, I do think that trying to make a connection to a disabled service every 2 seconds would drain the battery a bit.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h40:
I've noticed I'm getting these same errors, when 4G has been turned off. Actually, even when 4G is on and scanning (right now I'm in an area without 4G coverage)

This bug needs to be addressed clearly
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deputy5211:
According to a Sprint Tech Support Manager...

When I called to get the MSL for my Evo (gave it to me, no worries) I told them that my WiMax died upon installation of the OTA.

Their response was initially that one of my towers was broadcasting at 96% and another at 78%... "Initially" because he then stated he "refreshed" his display of the network and spoke to his "engineers" and the informed me that WiMax has been turned off in my area for past four days for network updates and should be turned back on in a day or two.

I suspect that:

a) They need a faster refresh rate on their network status monitors as showing 4 day old data is useless;

b) That the timing of the "network upgrades" to broaden reception in my area having the same effective time as my installation of the OTA update is too much of a coincidence;

c) He thinks I am an idiot (maybe right, but that is another topic) and can tell me whatever BS he wants and thinks I will follow without questioning; and/or

d) He is an idiot and has no clue. Based on my prior contacts with Sprint this would not surprise me.

Since I am within 30 days I am going to take my Evo back to the store and exchange it for one that (hopefully) has not had the OTA done. If not successful at that I will return for refund and keep using my AT&T BlackBerry for now. Better coverage for me, easy tethering via Tether (nee TetherBerry), and 10k banked Rollover minutes. Once Froyo is out and root is resolved I will be back to try again.

Exactly the same issue - easily reproducible by turning WiMax on and then off. I'm afraid it's preventing the phone from sleeping and drains the battery.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] stravi:
Hi Guys - I've been searching high and low for answers to this problem but apart from one disgruntled sprint hero owner who updated to the official 2.1, I haven't seen anything posted on this recently.

I was really happy with the camera quality on my 1.5 Hero. Even though it wasn't exactly highly praised in reviews and blogs, the appearance of a number of excellent camera apps (my favourite being "Vignette") on the market transformed a slightly lacklustre device into a rather surprising and fun photographic tool - I was really quite happy with the results, it even curbed my lust for searching for a dedicated new photographic device for a while...

But of course, like so many others, the delayed release of a 2.1 ROM forced me to root my phone and explore a number of custom ROMs - some of which are of course rather excellent in their performance and stability. But it seems that 2.1 has ultimately reduced the quality of the camera images. First of all there was the infamous green tint, which was finally resolved by newer kernels which were based on official ROM releases. But even then, the quality of the JPEGs produced by the stock and 3rd party camera apps has noticeably decreased - which is only really noticeable when you look at photos on a computer screen (they look about the same on the Hero's small screen).

You don't have to pixel peep to see the difference, although zooming in to a photo taken under 1.5 compared to one taken under 2.1 does reveal a significant difference - pixellation and texture like artifacts are massively more present with the 2.1 images regardless of which app was used - which just makes the images look worse when viewed at a normal size.

So, does anyone here have the final say on this subject? Does 2.1 ultimately degrade the camera images produced by the Hero, and if so, is reverting back to 1.5 the only solution for those who want the highest quality results from their Hero? Or is there a 2.1 ROM out there that offers excellent image quality?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Stravi.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tolis626:
Well,I wouldn't rely too much on a device like the Hero to take good photos,but what you are saying is a little bit too strange.Seeing the better interface of the camera app I didn't really give any attention to the shots it takes!But I think I would have noticed if there was any difference.

Well,to be sure about it there might be one thing you can do.Try a Cupcake ROM(my personal choice would be Kimera 1.8) and see if you can actually notice any difference.Report back and then it might be only up to the devs.

By the way,which ROM are you using?My guess would be Cronos Droid 1.7 or Villain 10...Am I right?
