Thank god swype still works... Just went 1 day w/out swype and i felt the crunch...
[Nexus One General] WiKDMoNKY:
I have tried messing with fastboot and adb to reflash a custom recovery and neither will work the way they used to. Can someone give me a tip on how to root my phone again? I have been searching google and the xda forums for an hour and cannot find a solution.

Sorry for the noob question and thanks in advance!!!
[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
You update with the file paulobrien posted. It doesn't break anything.
[Nexus One General] WiKDMoNKY:
I am trying to update with Paul's unrooted FRF83 rom, but I cant get into recovery anymore and I dont have root access to reflash the clockwork mod recovery. I have Paul's rom on my sd card, I just cant find a way to flash it now.

Last night I flashed the from a rooted FRF72 to the 660KB stock FRF83 incremental update.

I tried fastboot and when I run fastboot devices, i get nothing. I tried adb shell and then try and run su and get permission denied.

Any help out there?
[Nexus One General] WiKDMoNKY:
I also nandroid'd before I did the 72 to 83 update, but cant get into recovery to restore and then run Paul's unrooted FRF83.

Thanks in advance!!!
[Nexus One General] danguyf:
If you want root, surely you should be flashing Paul's rooted, not unrooted, yes?
[Nexus One General] WiKDMoNKY:
Fixed it!!!

I figured it out, in case anyone else is in my position, here is how I fixed it.

Downloaded Paul's rooted FRF83 and Amon RA's latest custom recovery to the tools directory of the Android SDK.

Rebooted phone to fastboot and clciked on fastboot.

Plugged in USB cable

Opened command prompt

Cd'd to the tools directory under the Android SDK

Type fastboot boot recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img

Used recovery mode to mount sd card

Copied FRF83-update-nexusone-rooted-signed.zip to the root of the sd card

Unmounted sd card

From the recovery menu, I chose Flash zip from sd card and then browsed to FRF83-update-nexusone-rooted-signed.zip

Flashed it, rebooted and good to go!!!

Hey guys feel free to merge this but I was unsure where to put it.

After following the breaking news yesterday about the 30fps fix for Epson screens I decided to flash the godmode kernel on my fresh 0.3, but I did so without checking what type screen I had. Apparently I have a novatech and the fix didn't work. No biggie I was sort of expecting this. But later that night when I went to charge my phone, it would start to charge then stop. I rebooted it, same, pulled battery, same. So I had to restore a nandroid backup and it fixed itself. So I'm not 100% sure what caused this but just wanted to share my experience.
[EVO 4G General] liquidhaste:
This happened to me again. This time it was the v8 avalaunch froyo rom with the 1.2 oc kernel. It runs ok till the battery needs to be charged then it will not charge. Again a revert to stock kernel fixed it.
[EVO 4G General] kthejoker20:
There is something with the cords.

Did you buy a third party cord?

You have to you the exact cable the came with the phone. If it charges off that cable, then your good. That means, you went cheap on buying a crap cable they won't work with this phone.

Just because its says its micro usd, does not mean it will work.

Being a sprint user myself upon the camera development this morning (still needs work but something is better than nothing)

i have come to realize that Eclair and Android on The Sprint HTC Touch

is very close to complete.

only things left that i know of are:

bluetooth audio (music playback)

video recording

Video playback

but i want to see if anybody else has found anything.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
bt audio works for calls.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Yea I know it is but not for audio routing so you can't listen to music through it
[Touch CDMA Android Development] loserskater:
Video playback is also still not working.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] diabolicalnyc:
I'm running the super eclair from incubus

Well the camera on mine still isn't working after the update. It loads but when i take a picture it crashes.

I'm very new to this so I'm trying to learn as I go.

but also I'm not receiving text for some reason, everything else seems to be working fairly well.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] acegolfer:
Text messaging is a known issue with super eclair. It works on other builds.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
cool now that the camera is working does everyone have MMS setup to send?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] diabolicalnyc:
He mentioned it was.

:( maybe i'll try another one. I really like his version but text is pretty important.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Tsvallette:
My phone specifies that its a Tmobile my touch now after upgrading it to Myn’s Warm Donut Android 1.6 with Prodical Sun Theme. Also I get a MMI code issue. What should I do to fix this.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
its always going to say my touch 3G, thats just what he has the build set to recognize the phone as, it shouldn't cause any problems

i have no clue what an MMI code is so im not sure
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Tsvallette:
This is day two of going back to this phone and I dont have any data connection. In two more days according to Sprint I should have 100 percent access to whats on my account. I hope I have data connection soon. If I dont have it back by then I will be posting it here. I miss my data connection!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
what happened there, was your Data working before you flashed to android?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Tsvallette:
I have the Vogue and the Titan. I switched from my Vogue to the Titan due to some minor issues and now my Titan is doing the same thing. Before switching back to my Vogue I flashed the rom with the Android, liked it alot and then called up sprint and did a switch back to my newly improved Vogue. According to the sprint rep it will take upto 4 days for all provisioning to be complete. As of right now I have it all working except for the data. My phone doesnt even show a data connection and when it tries to access something via internet it says "You don't have a network connection. Ths could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned for data services. Please try again when you are connected. If it continues, call Customer Care."

Ohh yah, *2 and *4 doesnt work. I was going to call them today to see if they could speed things up but cant call them this way.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
yea so i have an easy fix to your problem, flash back to windows mobile once its back an loaded access the internet, it should do some sort of dialing #777 thing then flash back to android after IE loads any sort of web page.

you should be perfectly provisioned right now the max it usually takes is like 24 hours, although i do still have nightmares from my days as a service tech provisioning those sprint Direct Connect phones

but yea so if you were in android before you activated the phone thats why you dont have data
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Tsvallette:
Thank you. I relized that I would probable needed to do this but I didnt want to if there was a easier way to resolve this issue. I recall that I needed to do this when I went for stock rom to nfs 6.5 and had no internet as well. I then needed to load the 6.3 rom and then back to 6.5. This time I reverted to the 6.3 nfs rom and straight to this one.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bbannister0430:
okay so I am super new to this...i have a sprint vogue and i am running the zen-hero files from my sd card...I cannot get my caller id to work to save my life...it shows just numbers when someone calls me please help...
[Droid Incredible General] jdmba:
So far we have the rooting procedure and the unrEVOked reflash procedure. Between these 2, is there anything that would require EITHER of these processes again? I am sure many people out there in XDA land would rather not have to re-root.

Particularly, will any of the following require [1] rerooting or [2] re-reflashing?

1) Updating HBOOT from 0.77 to 0.79

2) Running a verizon RUU?

3) Updating Clockwork

4) Installing a cooked ROM?

5) Hard Reset

Thanks!!!
[Droid Incredible General] invisiblek:
you will always have custom recovery unless you flash something else over it (i may be wrong, i believe an ruu can do this, but it depends on the specific ruu)

flashing a cooked rom would only unroot if the rom was not rooted to begin with (most, if not every custom rom will have root included since it would be pointless to run a custom rom without root)
[Droid Incredible General] dreamersipaq:
1) Updating HBOOT from 0.77 to 0.79 - [1] - YES [2] - YES (If you use RUU containing stock verizon ROM)

2) Running a verizon RUU? - [1] - Yes [2] - Yes

3) Updating Clockwork - [1] - NO [2] - No

4) Installing a cooked ROM? - [1] - YES (If cooked rom does not contain root, otherwise NO) [2] - NO

5) Hard Reset - [1] - NO [2] - NO

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Hi,

I'm new to android. I'm trying to create a widget which has an ImageView along with other stuff.

I want to know how can i access that ImageView in my widget class, not the activity, because in activity its easy.

thanks
[Android Software Development] kevin@TeslaCoil:
What do you have so far? Do you have a loop over the appWidgetIds and get the remote views of the widget?

If not then check out http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/appwidgets/index.html for the basic widget setup.

But specifically what you are looking for I think is:

views.setImageViewResource(R.id.widget_image, R.drawable.new_image);

Why do you have to Root android phone's to do anything good to them??????, is what my iPhone friend just told me. I need a really good comeback. Any suggestions?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDMSirEK4:
come on guys....
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grainysand:
Call him a dumbfuck. Alternatively, ask him what exactly what these "good things" are that you need to root to access. Multi-tasking? Yeah, been able to do that since forever. Customization? Same. Install a home replacement. Wallpapers? Ditto. The latest iPhone OS only brought to the table features Android has been able to do out of the box from the beginning. Flash? Get your Froyo on via official OTA, no need to root.

Oh, and ask him what he can do with an unjailbroken iPhone. Out of the box, it's a crippled piece of ****.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] britoso:
You can do a lot of "good" things to your phone without rooting.

With froyo comes the LED flashlight and tethering.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karolis:
Ask him if he can tether or install 3rd party apps (w/o iTunes) without jailbreaking his iPhone and see what he says ;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDMSirEK4:
lol thanks guys...keep it coming!!!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vision77:
I have to answer this question at least once or twice a week when asked by many of my co-workers who gave up their crackberries for android. I give them the basics: Overclocking, undervolting, unrestricted tethering etc....But it's best put this way: Imagine having a car that can do 150 MPH but its restricted to 60 MPH. You may not have to go over 60 MPH but you should be able to if needed right? I hacked every smartphone I have owned because I refuse to get less than what my money is worth. If your heart pumps kool-aid or you like being pimped by manufacturers/service providers, then don't jailbreak/root. :cool:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxt:
Tell him it's actually the opposite. Personally I could NOT use an iPhone if it wasn't Jailbroken. This is coming from someone who used an iPhone 3GS for 10 months exclusively. Personally iPhone jailbroken is pretty good. It's pretty useless without jailbreaking, turning on/off wifi/gps/bt, is slow, multitasking, folders/categories/contact picture hack, better sms app, etc..etc..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshlusignan:
Ask him to load up some widgets, live wallpapers, google Nav. etc etc etc.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkDvr:
... there's a reason they call it "JAILBREAKING" and "ROOTING".

Jailbreaking = iPhone is useless without it, a lonely condemned soul waiting to be released. And even after you jailbreak it, it's horny, hungry and dumb as hell.

Rooted = getting access to additional features that require admin level access. Personally, I had only 2 reasons to root at all - wifi hotspot and flashlight. BOTH are now available for NON-rooted N1s. So.. Unless you got specific reasons to root.. your phone is already a powerhouse that can do anything.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yaotl:
Honestly, the flashlight was the only real reason I ended up rooting. I've since installed other root-only apps, but they do have non-root equivalents.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xzr3b0rnzx:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATnTdude:
Be able to uninstall Twitter is all the reason I need to root. Seriously Google, stop doing that, if I want it I'll go find it. Don't start messing your phones up like AT&T does.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirotis:
I have installed root with R6 risk free root from Modaco and after that tried to install Dalvik's a2sd but after Dalvik's a2sd install it crashes on the white screen with the HTC logo. I guess something is not compatible since I have tried 4 times with complete wipes of cache, SD, etc. Does anyone know if it is truly incompatible.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolfd:
Have you formatted your SD card with an EXT partition?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirotis:
Yes first I formated as fat32 and then through bootloader I created a 512 mb ext partition which i then upgraded to ext 3
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harisled:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnlgee:
Not tried just keeping it at ext2?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirotis:
not really, you think it will make a difference??

But I think the problem is not with the sd because even if I take it out it still gets stuck at boot logo
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirotis:
Guys any ideas???
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harisled:
mirotis, after 3 failed trys myself i flashed the PAY rom and never looking back:P

i don't think there is a solution for this matter right now :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scesarin:
I have the same problem!

What do you mean with "i don't think there is a solution for this matter right now"?

you mean, there is no solution even by trying with another rom? there is no solution at all? and we have to keep our Desire on that status?

if you know how to fix this? or an alternative solution I would appreciate it!

SCésar
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnlgee:
I think he means that he thinks there's no solution to getting A2SD working on the generic rom using the r6 method.

However, after achieving root, you could flash a custom ROM (PaY's is the example in the above) that will support A2SD from the start.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scesarin:
Thanks,

I have done that, and it works!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmonfu:
I am thinking of flashing my device this weekend.

So with Mondaco's ROM, app2SD does not work?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnlgee:
The Modaco ROM works fine, just not the generic ROM that's provided with the root method, it seems. So once you've achieved root, download the Modaco ROM and flash that :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmonfu:
Ok will have some tutorial reading to do this weekend since I am new to all this :) Trying to understand how everything works, and what achieving root is :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnlgee:
In Linux there's a user called Super User (su) that has practically write access to everything on the system. It's the equivalent of Administrator on Windows basically.

Being rooted allows you to install custom ROM's that you wouldn't normally be able to, install custom themes and install certain apps that require access to system files that you wouldn't normally have access to.

Root is a good thing.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmonfu:
Ah ok I understand now. So you do not need any special software to achieve root, its pressing the volume down button and the on/off button right? Then once Rooted, you can install a custom ROM
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnlgee:
There's a few more steps than just that. You normally need to create a GoldCard (Not needed if your device is unbranded) and then flash into an alternative recovery menu.

It's simple really, as long as you follow the r6 method to a tee you should have no issues.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmonfu:
thanks dnlgee. Can you recommend a thread where it explains everything step by step from removing the normal HTC Desire ROM to a cooked one?

I found this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=696189 but I would prefer something more simple maybe?

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ooMikeoo:
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated! I have flashed just about every single ROM on XDA and have never run into any issues, besides obvious bug within each of those ROM's. But since all of the .29 overclocked kernel ROM's have been popping up I have had nothing but problems with them. I have tried Darchdroid v2.7 and Buffed 2.0B and on each of those after flashing I either get stuck at the HTC screen or it gets stuck in an HTC screen boot loop. One thing I did notice was that after multiple battery pulls I can sometimes get Darch's ROM to boot, but every time I power off or reboot I get the same thing. I have done all the normal stuff that you guys tell all the n00bs, I have wiped EVERYTHING (Factory Reset, Dalvik, and EXT), I have tried booting up wih no SD card in, repartioned SD (with and without EXT), nothing seems to work. I have flashed back to DamagedControl and Fresh with no problems. Obviously there are people here using these ROM's on their Hero but for some reason mine does not like them, are there difference between Hero's based on when their purchased (different chipsets, ect.)?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neuro_genesis:

Thats whats i do as well but the problem is we shouldn't have to do this. The phone has the same size battery as the TP2 and i was able to have my facebook, twitter, email, and weather update every hour and get great battery life. Now i realize that this screen might drain more power then the TP2 but i have also stopped email, twitter, and only update weather and facebook once a day. You would think that would at least give me similar battery life and that isn't the case. We need to figure this out. I sometimes get great battery life and other times its half way dead within the first hour of work which is ridiculous

but now it turns green when it is 90 %. and yesterday, it was 97 and i took it off and plugged it in again after like 30 mins. it was still green, and batt % was 94. but even though it was plugged in, it was discharghing. while it was plugged in it went down to91 from 94 in another half hour.

i did recaliberate the battery according to cyanogens post...

i dunno whats going on..:confused:
