[Touch Pro, Fuze General] LazPL:
I have a little question. My PIM databases are enormous (been growing since 1997 in fact!), and synching up after a flash is just so annoying.

The obvious alternative would be to use PIMbackup or similar to simply write those back after a flash. BUT! The problem is that since Activesync considers it a NEW device, once you sync, instead of realizing the PIM data is all there, it thinks that it's "foreign" data and you end up with double everything - double contacts, double meetings, and so on.

I am sure there's a reg entry somewhere that "remembers" the partnership with your computer, so that Activesync recognizes PIMbackup-restored data as your original PIM data.

In fact, if I use for instance SPB backup on a clean ROM, that's exactly what happens, Activesync/Outlook is sure it is exactly the same phone, and doesn't give me any duplicates.

I thought you might know what that would be? I am sure it is MORE than just the "Owner" settings in the registry.

I'd be grateful for any info you have.

Thanks and all the best!

Laz
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
You can back up active sync partnerships with the backup tool in sk tools. It's much more than just one reg entry, and it's totally worth it to backup/restore the AS partnerships. Over-writing pim.vol with a copy from your sd card is also a lot faster than syncing, although sometimes it doesn't take the first time (you need to soft reset after doing it).
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Cassetti:
I made my life a million times easier when i used google's free exchange server to sync my contacts, calender, and mail.

First thing i do whenever i flash a rom before restoring anything else, is go into activesync and establish the server. (use ssl, username is your email, address is m.google.com - only sync calendar, email, and contacts, nothing else).

Voila, all your contacts will be synced up. Takes me about 5 minutes and all of my contacts (complete with picture id's and every detail) are back on my phone. And as an added bonus, i can access my address book via http://contacts.google.com

From what i understand, there is even a way to save these settings to your XDA_UC folder on your storage card making it a part of the UC process (don't know if UC is built into FUZE roms, i upgraded to a Tilt2 a month ago, it wasn't the last time i was browsing the Fuze roms....)

But yeah, I found ActiveSync to my computer a total waste of time - duplicates are a PITA, data is lost, or in my case 2 years ago my phone was stolen - and activesync failed the last time i had synced my phone - loosing about 30% of the contacts I had gotten since my last sync!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] LazPL:
Hah! I knew there was a simple way to sort it out! Thanks Farmer Ted!

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Part Four:
Hey guys. Sorry, I've searched, but I just couldn't find them. I'm looking for the stock Android/Froyo/Eclair icon pack so that I can use Better Cut to restore the stock icon look in ROMs that use custom icons. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
Not sure if this helps you but since it fits into the thread:

http://androiddrawableexplorer.appspot.com/
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] evilkorn:
Bettercut doesn't replace the icon, just the shortcut. You need to use meta/ninja morph or just reflash the google base.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Part Four:
All I care about is what the icons look like when I create a shortcut on the home screen. Bettercut does the trick just fine.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] evilkorn:
Just extract the icons from a stock rom then.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] mayurh:
which folder has the stock icons please?

im using bettercut but i still cant use bettercuts icons in my launcherpro dock?

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] ufvj217:
it force closed (not the first time, it does every once and a while, not very often though)

after that, it wouldnt open anymore so i rebooted the phone, and all my texts were gone. wtf!! anyway to get them back??
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Bxsteez:
Nope they are gone forever. Android 2.0 stock text messaging app did the same thing on the droid. Thats why i dropped android. Let me guess. You had over 1k texts?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] ufvj217:
i had like 600 from one person, 20-30 from about 8 other people, and about 4,700 from one person lol. no big deal was just wondering.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Bxsteez:
Thats what I thought. I had 1200 the last time it deleted all my texts. It did it everytime i went over 1k. I got so frustrated i dropped the droid and got the verizon tp2.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] ufvj217:
omg......i dont think it was the app or the stock msg app... i think it was the antivirus free program...i read that just now on another forum, went in my AV app, and saw it scanned the "content" and "cleaned" 12 msgs.......fawk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! deleted the app just now.. and emailed them, but i doubt theres a way to get it back...damnit.

did you have that app by any chance?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Bxsteez:
Nope. I didn't have any installed apps on my device for the first 30 days. I wanted to test out android and see if it was ready for my use.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] ufvj217:
damn.

well, this sucks.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kurl_187:
I just recently bought my first smart phone from a friend. He told me we could get the unlock code from at&t. I was given the wrong code. Not knowing it was the wrong one I tried it a few times, 5 times to be exact. I have seen it posted on a few threads and was told by at&t, after i had tried the code, that after five attempts the phone is permanantly locked. I tried the kaiser sim unlocker but the phone still won't let me confirm the code. Is my phone permanantly locked or is it possible to still unlock it? The phone is a HTC Kaiser 8925. If anybody has any answers it would be much appreciated.:confused:

I am currently looking for a prepaid cell phone option.

This phone is to just receive couple of forwarded phone calls a month.

I have a Motorola Razr from Sprint that I have sitting around. I would like nothing more than to use it as a prepaid phone instead of paying money for those bulky and ugly phones.

Is that a possibility?

Thank you all.
[General Topics] maxpower097:
If your only gonna get limited calls tmobiles your best solution. You can pay $100 for 1150 minutes that last for 1 year. All other phones offer crap for prepay. You can also buy $10 for 30 minutes, $25 for 140 minutes, $50 for 400 minutes, or $100 for 1000 minutes but if you spend $100 you get 15% more minutes. The 10 25 and 50 dollar refills activate for 3 months, the 100 dollar card activates for 1 year. If you interested I know a great guy on ebay that owns a shop that can sell you a prepaid activation kit with sim card for like $8. You email him your ime number, plan, and area code and he activates it for you. Then you can just get the sim card and buy a nice GSM razr or GSM phone and then buy the $100 refill card. and BAM! your set till 7/1/2011.

If you need data and all that crap from a real carrier Tmo still has their flex pay which is $29.99 for 500 anytime minutes and unlimited nights and weekends. But then your paying monthly.
[General Topics] jodhas:
Thanks for the info. But I have a Sprint RAZR. Would it be possible for me to use this phone???
[General Topics] maxpower097:
No sprints a CMDA phone, your limited to sprint, verizon, or metropcs. Figuring you can get a new GSM unlock RAZR3 for about $25 on craigslist its still your best option.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SNaReX:
I installed a froyo based rom to my HTC Desire . I thought that when i install a rom , the htc sense will remain same. Is there a mod to have htc sense on this phone?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolfd:
No, nope, and not a hope.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SNaReX:
Why ? By the way do you have a HTC Desire rom adviice to me ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
FroYo is stock Android and HTC haven't developed Sense to work with it yet. They'll release a Sense-based FroYo ROM once they're ready
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] divvet:
There are some alternate apps that replace alot of the sense stuff, the only thing im really missing is the sense camera, do some searching on the apps forum and you can find alot of stuff.

if you miss sense that much, downgrade to a 2.1 rom, alot of good ones out there. I prefer to stay with froyo (even with the current flaws that still need to be fixed) due to the speed increase and flash :)

Hi :)

Is it possible to translate a cooked ROM?

for e.g. this or this one?

The reason is, I lije that ROMs, my Dad, too. BUT...

He doesn't speak english and I want to translate those ROMs, not only manila.

Mainly the telephone, SMS and settingspart is important...

Is it possible to "recook" these ROM and integrate a german languagepack

for the main OS and important packages like the dialer and messaging application?

Many regards and thanks for your hints :)
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Austinjs0102:
I am new to this and am going to set up a linux box soon and try my hand at some cooking. My main question is, are we able to use someone elses ROM or parts of it and build off as long as we give credit. Being new to this, building one from scratch may be over whelming. I really like some ROM's but there are some things i would wanna change is all. Anyone here able to give me some tips.. i have been looking at the Chef Central area and getting an idea.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Lemcott:
here's the basic rule of thumb:

if your making something that will never be released publicly (online or otherwise) no one is gonna care if you use someone else's ROM as a base.

IF you are going to post it ANYWHERE online, you must FIRST ask the original developer if it's okay to post (they will likely tell you to give credit or post a link to the original or something along these lines).

even if they already say in their posts that you can modify and redistribute their rom, you are STILL obligated to contact the original developer, just to make sure and let them know that you are doing so.

essentially it's the golden rule here man, don't do something you wouldn't want someone to do to you.

'kay i bought a new phone without realising it had not got the android market for downloading apps.

How do i put apps on my phone using an SD card. I cannot put astro file manager to install apps because i have no market.. So how do install the .apk files using a PC and SD card?

,thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nenn:
i dont know how you dont have market, but if you have an internet connection on your phone root it and throw some custom roms on there.

else, look up a tutorial on setting up adb and then do

adb install file.apk
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] twiztedvvv:
how can you buy an android phone without the market :S

visit theunlockr.com for a tutorial and root your phone. transfer any .apk to your sd card and then just 'open' them. Job done :D

[HTC Aria General] panda703:
So i installed a bootanimation and now my aria cant access the recovery/clockwork

it remains stuck on the bootloader in an endless cycle. The phone itself work's just the problem accessing recovery.
[HTC Aria General] panda703:
i also have a Nandroid backup on my SDcard if that helps :/

EDIT::: So after countless attempts of mashing unrevoked2 my bootloader finally got past the SPL entering clockwork and i restored my nandroid :D. but i'd like to leave this thread open for future cases for when it does happen to someone else and hopefully come up with a real resolution.

thanks
[HTC Aria General] sfernandez:
If you can access you phone and use any program you can try this program called Quick Boot. It will allow you to get into Fastboot, Recovery, and reboot phone. Here is the link hope this helps

http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-siriusapplications-quickboot-jDpx.aspx
[HTC Aria General] attn1:
Why didnt you just go into clockwork? Pull the USB cord, pull the battry to power down. Reinsert the battery. Hold the vol down button and press power. When Hboot appears, let go of the vol down button. After a few secs, scroll down to recovery and start clockwork. If you're in a boot loop when you bork the OS, pull the battery.
[HTC Aria General] larry996:
Funny you posted this, thought mine was a one off. I installed the new DriodX animation and it got stuck in a boot loop
[HTC Aria General] panda703:
i wasnt actually stuck in a boot loop/ the phone itself would start up and everything i could make calls send messages and what not. But if i went from the SPL(i think its called) and tried to enter recovery that's when it would send me back to the bootloader/SPL screen, the only option i could execute without it sending me back was 'reboot'
[HTC Aria General] attn1:
ah okay. Probably the recovery didn't complete flashing the first time. Glad you got it sorted out.

I wonder the same thing :/...

I unchecked it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] EarlZ:
Also wondering about this, anyone care to enlighten us ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Logicalstep:
umm this would be a guess, but I'd imagine, that due to the fact AMoled's use more power when showing a white images, is there a chance this setting uses some kind of algorithm to see how much of the screen is white and adjusts the birghtmess or colour to reduce the strain on the battery.

So if you are showing a white background it would tweak the brightness down a little, or maybe even depending on the colour, if some colours use more neegry than others, it might throttle them back slightly to conserve battery.

Logicalstep
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Will.1:
Yea i have no clue what this thing does. I'd also like to know though.

I'm almost affraid it'll consume more battery, don't know why.

Hi Artemis users,

Let me introduce myself. I'm NeoS2007, your new forum mod for the Artemis.

I've been on xda-developers for a few years now. Mostly visiting the devices I own: the Polaris, Blackstone and Nexus One. I've also participated in the Kaiser and Polaris Graphics driver team, and I've released a driverpack of my own, which hopefully helps users with their devices.

Now, I'm happy to be appointed to the Artemis' forums, since most people here are nice and very helpful to each other. If you experience any other way of approach from members, feel free to contact me through PM, or report the post by using the "!" button in the post.

Right now here is the current state of porting the Droid X multi-touch keyboard to all users:

2.1 Eclair-based Roms: only thing not working is vibrate, auto-captilization,auto-correct errors. Dictionary works, you can check by typing something in an app and in the suggestion window u'll see a corresponding word from ur dictionary. http://www.mediafire.com/?jmllywoz51h

2.2 Froyo-based Roms: all thats not working on eclair + can't type anywhere it tries to suggest words, like the messaging body. Also voice doesnt work. http://www.mediafire.com/?rmqzyo0ifzk

[Droid Eris Android Development] illogical06:
First off, ive been searching and trying different roms for hours to no prevail. I will begin with what ive accomplished and attempted. BTW, im a complete noob to rooting.

I followed the 1.5 to 2.1 sticky "[Walkthrough] From stock (1.5) to rooted 2.1 (update - new link)". I successfully completed part 1 and part 2 but fail on part 4. I did not attempt the recovery install and regret it now.

So I was able to get the full install of PB00IMG.zip to work flawlessly. I don't believe it was actually necessary to install a special rom at this point but when i started i figured they were step by step instructions. Then i got the usb driver installed and my pc recognized my phone as the htc dream which i figure is normal. After that I attempted to install the ivan 1.0 rom and got exactly this:

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/command

--Install from sdcard...

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

I figure the only relevant part is the signature failure. I realize that all the zips are signed and therefore cannot be opened. I understand that they have to be renamed to "update.zip". No im not naming it "update.zip.zip". I am renaming it with windows xp. I saw somewhere that a guy had the same issue and renamed it with astro and it worked out fine so Im hoping this is the issue but that seem silly. Ive verified the md5 sums of the rom images as well.

Ive also tried the Eris_Official that is on the sticky and plane jane 1.0.

Ive seen some debate on whether or not the 2.1 ota eris's can be rooted but it seems quite apparent its the same as any other eris. my hboot is 1.46 and not 1.49 so all is well there.

I also applied wipe data/factory reset

At this point i am at a loss as to what to do because it seems as though ive tried everything. I will reinstall PB00IMG.zip (hopefully) but im not sure what that rom actually does, i have no idea at all. From what i saw upon booting it seems like a simple stock 2.1 rom that is rooted. I'd prefer not to use that but as long as i can install the overclock kernel then i dont mind too much. I prefer the ivan rom. I prefer to switch between roms at will like the experienced rooters on here.

i did not wipe cache partition because im not sure what that does and it was never mentioned.

From deductive reasoning, it HAS to be an issue with the signature verification and is probably a simple fix.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully i have mentioned everything that has transpired.
