[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CFitzgerald11:
please help! for every rom i flash, no matter what i do, the people app begins to force close on my when i try to edit or add a new contact. i of course wipe before every flash. this is like a huge problem considering adding contacts is.... kinda important! please get back to me asap with any ideas! thanks. and thank you for all of your work on the evo!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jykinturah:
Wrong section.

But I honestly have no clue what is wrong. Especially if it isn't ROM specific.

Try flashing stock, and you are wiping dalvik cache too right?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CFitzgerald11:
could it have to do with titanium backup?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jykinturah:
Try only backing up your apps and then flash a ROM. Restore the apps only. I got weirdness happening too when I tried to back up system data.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ogsmokey:
Hi guys, I was wondering if you ever got this issue resolved? Ive been having the same problem getting FCs everytime i try to add a new contact or edit existing ones. I am currently running Fresh 0.5.3 but already had the FC issue a while ago when running DC3.2. I was on bugless .4 before that but i dont remember trying to add a contact at that time so im not sure if i had the error then as well. I have tried wiping with both clockwork recovery as well as amon-ra as well as flashing roms with both but to no avail. I am at a loss as to what to try. Any new ideas? Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashamw33:
I'm having this issue as well with force close on my people app and all I have is LauncherPro. No rooting done on my phone.

just lookin for anything restro that might have been a little faster and not as snazzy. have the tilt 2 and have begun to flash regularly and am just still lookin for that one rom....hard to explain

jackos roms
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] E-Phizzle:
saw a couple of his

will check em out thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] E-Phizzle:
ok so i see a couple of jackos roms right on the first page of dev thread....any others i should look at?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] E-Phizzle:
nothing against jackos work but they just look like what i changed from on friday. am still new and am finding that there are a lot of changes within these roms so will keep searching. am just going through the process so if any noobies have questions feel free to ask....no such thing as a stupid question
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] E-Phizzle:
no really will answer any question
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dcmedic:
If you're talking about Jacko's 6.1 rom then it was made to look like 6.5 with the speed and use of 6.1.

If you're looking for speed, then try Energy's standard rom it's about 2-3 post down on his Rom Thread.

Also you can turn off sense or touch 3d and gain. Try SPB Shell to replace the animation you lost.
[HD2 General] MYermakiov:
I am excited to use my TMOUS device except several small issues. Some of them already fixed here (thanks this forum), but some irritates me (especcially whole device is excellent). One of this is middle hard button ( I mean that "back arrow"). My opinion is its most useless key I saw. It will must better to use this as a comprehensive Task Manager or Task Switcher. But this ONE STEP BACK(!!)... Stupid! I can't find any decision in internet to correspond this button to useful function, except AEButton-software, but I don't like this so artificial way, which running on memory and fishing all button events. Anybody knows other solving?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
i use the back button maybe a hundred times a day in opera. faster than calling opera out of fullscreen to hit the soft back button.

i havent heard of any other way to change it than by using aebuttons, sorry.
[HD2 General] chvvkumar:
You Sir, deserve a +1 rep (if this board would have allowed it :( )

You saved me a lot of screen taps :o
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
heh no worries. The one drawback is that if you hit a link that opens in a new tab, and then hit the back hard key, it drops you back to manila home (although opera is still running, just switch back to it) because there is no 'back' for that tab, so it assumes you mean to go back to home.

However you soon get used to it and it happens less and less.
[HD2 General] MYermakiov:
samsamuel Thats good, but its not enough for device with only 5 hardware buttons (except volume control) to have only one programmable button for user friendly functions. I guess professionals in this forum can help us to establish full control for these buttons!
[HD2 General] chvvkumar:
If you search around, you will find apps to do just that.
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
I use the back button every time I use my phone in every program. how is a back button not a good idea?
[HD2 General] leepriestenator:
The Back arrow button functions as close app button my Euro HD2. Initially I used to think that it's just allowing me to step out of an application back to the previous screen / app that I was in, but after checking the task manager periodically, I realised that this button actually closes my apps.

Are you guys sure it's not doing the same with your T-Mo edition?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DobbsianYeti:
This is a build I put together yesterday... It's basically stock ROM with the bloatware removed along with most sense elements... I'm working on a more pure vanilla, but builds thus far are really unstable. This build has been stable on my phone- with the exception of Rosie Utility FC at startup that I can't figure out since Rosie is gone. Wifi tether is enabled, google apps are included, su and busybox are installed and working, and I'm using launcher2 for now. Try it out and see what you think- nothing special, but it's something to play with until the pros release something great...

link removed- see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=713316 for newest work...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ellerbestyle:
I am getting major force closes on every thing when it boots up. Am I doing anything wrong. The only ROM I can get to work is the cyan test rom.

Acore is one of the force close but there are many when it boots.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DobbsianYeti:
did you wipe before install? I haven't had these problems... so it's hard to tell you what's going on- sorry it's not working for you though...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ellerbestyle:
I did do a wipe but not sure if I am doing it right. It does seem like it is installing both roms. What is the best way to wipe?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DobbsianYeti:
In clockwork recovery select wipe data/factory reset... then wipe cache partition.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ellerbestyle:
Yeah I finally got to wipe. Thanks for the help
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nwgman13:
Any chance you will get a version of this with the stock android dialer and phone.apk (i.e. like the Nexus One)?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DobbsianYeti:
That's where I'm headed eventually... I'm trying to figure out how to get nexus over to the inc, but the gsm/cdma thing is busting my ass... So far I have it loading with working hardware, but it won't join the damn network...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mechinn:
just to help out, from experimenting with rom building myself i came across this:

Search the XDA-developers forum for "Safely remove Rosie.apk on FreshToast 1.1?" (I cannot post a link because its a new account sorry)

its meant for the HTC Hero BUT it explains that you want to get rid of HtcAddProgramWidget.apk to make that FC go away.

the question is will that break anything, try it and find out :)

I flashed your rom and saw the FC then "rm HtcAddProgramWidget.*" and the FC went away in the setup process. idk if it breaks anything else when you actually use the phone though. good luck!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DobbsianYeti:
Nice- thanks for the help...:)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] buckweet:
I'd like to see a stock dialer work with verizon to troubleshoot an issue.

A weird issue which not many people have seemed to mention is the fact that you can't make multiple calls with Verizon. Perhaps its a verizon limitation? I am new to verizon so I am not sure.. When I mean make multiple calls, all you can do with the stock incredible is place a call, add a call and then conference it. You cannot put your first call on hold, make a second call and then go back to the first call. The phone app will only allow you to conference it. Also when you hit end calls its ends both calls..

The EVO does not have this problem, but it being on sprint perhaps they support it.. As both are CDMA networks I believe it should work with the incredible?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ellerbestyle:
I would love a senseless rom with the stock android dialer. I would be ok with sense but the sense dialer is a pos. i just hate it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
If you have something like Dialer One installed, it's actually ok to delete HtcDialer.apk and HtcDialer.odex from /system/app. You can say goodbye to the Sense dialer. Even if you still use the Sense launcher, when you press Phone it will bring up Dialer One and will not fc on you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DobbsianYeti:
I finally put together a stock nexus rom for the Inc, but I'm having the same issues as the cyanogenmod... says TCDMA64 at the top and the damn camera won't work... does anybody know how to properly deodex the stock apps from the Inc.? Try as I might I can't get it to work...

On a brighter note- it's fast, and light... just won't take pictures...
[XPERIA X10 General] wrongfeifong:
I never used a root phone so i have absolutely no idea what it does.

There is no one single explanation as well beside some parts here and there.

Anyone care to list the advantage and disadvantage that x10 can access from root at current stage? (my main concern is just get froyo or flash enable)
[XPERIA X10 General] damirbusic:
I also want to know what can we do now. My wish is to have this latest ROM from SE but I want to remove from these apps:

E-mail

Voice Caller

Google Talk

User manual

Moxier x 5 ( I want to remove all of them )

Quadrapop

SIM Toolkit

Wisepilot

And that is it. Can we go back to non rooted phone and original firmware in case we need it for warranty reasons and how ?

Cheers
[XPERIA X10 General] bimmerboii:
Would also like to know if there are specific apps for rooted phones? And what the app would do?
[XPERIA X10 General] 2twiztid:
With a rooted phone, you can get apps that can change startup items, take screen shots of your phone amongst various other things.

-Twiztid
[XPERIA X10 General] skylinegtrvspec:
Can we also modify call volume
[XPERIA X10 General] wrongfeifong:
What is the hype then? If root

doesn't give access to froyo

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=711907
[XPERIA X10 General] Baggyb:
Without root we are at the mercy of SE. If SE don't want the device to support Froyo we will never have Froyo.

With root it is in our own hands or more precisely the hands of The developerson here. Hopefully they will get the stock Froyo release and load it onto an x10 and get the drivers to ensure all works.

Unfortunately we have to wait until this has been achieved. Half of the battle has been won though.

I'd rather wait for updates from the devs on here than SE's devs! I mean root was promised and has now been achieved, but I'm still waiting on SE's updates, especially the one designed to improve performance and bug fixes.
[XPERIA X10 General] tnleeuw:
To change startup items, install Startup Auditor from the market - it can do this for you without root.

Root should allow for better backup though, and for custom ROMs. Those are the biggest end- user advantages which I can see in an instant.

[Nexus One Android Development] cmstlist:
Now we have two distinct root methods for the N1. 1) Unlock the bootloader using fastboot and proceed accordingly. 2) Use the new method described with adb in recovery mode.

Going forward, certain tutorials and methods may only be applicable to one method and not the other, or will provide separate methods for each case. So maybe we need some new terminology.

Original root method using fastboot = "boot-rooted"?

New root method using adb in recovery mode = "rec-rooted"?

Feel free to get more imaginative.
[Nexus One Android Development] aboda7es:
Good idea. But are there any differences between the two methods other than the locked bootloader thing?
[Nexus One Android Development] cmstlist:
Well one thing I notice is that some of the modding threads (e.g. how to restore your Nexus One to stock) contain instructions that involve Fastboot. I'm assuming that if your bootloader is still locked, you won't be using Fastboot to accomplish this step.
[Nexus One Android Development] otto888:
I believe you can still use PASSIMGs on a locked bootloader,so some of those guides could still work on a rec-rooted Nexus.
[Nexus One Android Development] N3xt2N0N3:
How about fast-root and hacked-root?
[Nexus One Android Development] galaxys:
Sounds Good...it has my vote :cool:
[Nexus One Android Development] cmstlist:
Fast-root works...

Hacked-root I'm not sure about - cause really, both methods are pretty hacktastic :)
[Nexus One Android Development] nopenope:
How about true-root and lazy-root?
[Nexus One Android Development] rohandhruva:
In any case, functionality of the root access is still the same - the only difference is whether your bootloader is unlocked or not. I don't think two different terminologies are required - a tutorial can just have two sections; one for people having unlocked bootloader, and other for locked.
[Nexus One Android Development] miketlo:
I dont see why it makes a difference but

oem-root for fastboot oem unlock

and

sd-root for the sdcard loop one (hmm sounds like it could be confused with sd root directory)

or

loop-root
[Nexus One Android Development] reaper1412:
Sounds Great!:D
[Nexus One Android Development] :
considering that those with unlocked bootloaders can use the same method as those with locked loaders, i think the unroot tut itself should be changed to use the PASSIMG.zip

theres no need to go through all the hassle of doing a nandroid restore imo
[Desire General] jonmall1441:
Right so I am rooting my desire in the next few days and was wondering which roms are most popular and most stable :) and also which flash method do you guys use (fake-flash or the normal way)?

Thanks
[Desire General] dnlgee:
I'm currently using a Froyo port called DefroST, its a Tad buggy but that's because its not official for the Desire. If you want to stick a SenseUI, then I'd suggest either Pays ROM or maybes even MCR. You should probably go through them all and figure out which you prefer though.
[Desire General] jonmall1441:
Maybe i should wait for my 16gb sd card to arrive before i root. Seems like i'm gonna need some space for all the roms hehe

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteelH:
OK, here's my problem. My EVO was smashed last night by a raving drunk psycho (Yes, cops showed up and took him, but I need my nandroid to put on my replacement phone when I get it). The screen is in about 1 million pieces, the entire case is warped as well. But oddly enough, this tough a$$ phone still boots up. I can issue adb commands and such, but can't see jack on the screen. So I know I can boot into recovery mode and whatnot via adb. My problem is this. I know there are 2-3 nandroid backups. How the hell can I get them? I tried putting the sdcard into a reader on my laptop, but to my stupidity I now realize it's in some linux or other file system format, so I can't simply read the card directly. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Also, I have nand root acces on the phone if that helps at all.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danknee:
The sdcard is formatted by the phone as fat32. Put it in an sd card adapter, then into your computer. The files are in the nandroid folder, just copy that full folder. While you are at it, you might as well just copy the full card...and keep the card to put in your next phone, right?

If the card doesn't read in your computer, then it is damaged. There are numerous file recovery programs you can try, but it is questionable to me that your nandroid backup is really worth using a recovery program to save. Your contacts should be in Google and the rest takes 30min top to set up (right?).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jykinturah:
If you REALLY want to save it try:

adb pull /sdcard/

It will copy everything into the directory you are in I think.

The backups should be stored in /sdcard/nandroid/

Man, you can ADB into your phone after it got smashed up like that?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteelH:
Yeah, it's getting txts and emails too apparently. Wifi is connecting to my router too. No sounds at all, no vibration, no screen. But seems the phone is working aside from that. It's crazy.

Got a problem it seems:

Is there any way to run nandroid backup without seeing the screen?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lafrad:
I say, get a micro SD card reader, and put use your PC to do a backup.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteelH:
As you can see from my prior post, the sdcard appears to be shot. I need some way to run a nandroid backup without being able to see the screen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrono:
boot up the phone and do

adb shell

then

reboot recovery

when it reboots redo

adb shell

then put

nandroid-mobile.sh --help

and that will give you what you need to do. However if your sd card is shot then your screwed lol. nandroid needs an sd card to work
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sirchuk:
Yeah, do what mrono suggested, but with a new Micro SD card. Just buy a cheap-o 1GB card or something to run the backup. I've got 3-4 cards around here myself. Maybe you can borrow a card from another phone or a digital camera? Chances are a 256mb card will work as well, or 512mb? A 32 won't work since it's too small. You've of course lost everything else, but you should be able to make a backup.

This is all assuming that the SD Card slot in the phone didn't break in the process, and since the SD card is fried, chances are it did break the slot since those bastards are a pain to fry in the first place.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteelH:
Thanks guys. I figured that out a little while ago. I just used the sdcard out of my old blackberry. Worked great!

I made this concept because I was intrigued by how I would want a IM application to look like. It's not exactly finished but it's somewhat how I'd like my IM to feel. (It might be too dark) I love designing and well this is the result! :)

NOTICE:- Image heavy and must require a desktop browser, and it's very DARK!

I posted this over at Phandroid, but I wanted to share this design with the XDA community, since it's more developer orientated. I design purely in my free time and haven't took any classes for designing, but rather all self taught.

Has to be HD2 great pice of kit yes its 6.5 and there are a lot of good roms in the hd2 thread that get the best out of the device IMO:)
[General Topics] maxpower097:
Evo4 and HD2 are basically the same phone with different radio chips. Only issue I have with the Evo is the battery life is supposed to be rated in minutes not hours. LOL being a little sarcastic but I heard its not good at all. I personally think the tmo HD2 is better then the unlock int version. Has more memory and says tmobile on it and all. By far my vote is the HD2. Plays any video I download on the internet thats under 2GB with sound in sync and no dropped frames, touch screen rivals the iphone, they just cracked the linux kernal for it so we should see a usable port of android within months. Plus I'm not sold on winmo7. I think like XP we may see cooked roms taking peices of WINMO7 and cooking them into 6.5. But anyways think back with Winmo first came out and how buggy it was. If WM7 is a true rebuild then all our cool players, and mods won't work on it so even if WM7 comes out in Oct 10 I could see holding off till 2012 to make the switch. At least till the software catches up. I think when WM7 comes out your going to find were actually quite spoiled when it comes to apps and phone stuff. Also I signed up for Tmobile Flex pay plan with 500 daytime minutes, unlimited TXT and unlimited data for $68 total tax included. Service has been great! Faster then Verizon and ATT but doesn't tower hop as well. Occasionally I will run through my buffer before the next tower really takes over. This just results in 5 seconds of silence or blacked out video ,then it comes back.
[General Topics] sablesurfer:
Ok, so two votes for the HD2. Wanna hear the emotional/silly arguement I am having with self...HD2 already old tech.

For what its worth I heard the Evo4 is BA! Only gripe I've heard is battery life and this can be minimized by settings and an extended pack. You'll enjoy it. Hell its the same phone as the HD2 but different radio.
