[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozydious:
Damned reply vanished into the ether!!! @#?! So anyhoo.... here's how you flash.... its easy.

First you root your phone. Takes an hour at the most. You're sort of not embracing android if you havnt rooted yet... but anyway, now that you have a newly rooted hero you look for a rom to use (I swap between aHero and EzHero).

Once found you download your .zip file and place it into the root of your sd card (not in any folders).

Start your phone in recovery using the power and home keys simultaneously and select 'flash zip from sd card' and select the file you want to flash. Then press home to confirm and then let it load. Then restart. Easy as pie.... mmmmm.... pie....

Considering I'm only 15 this is a relatively easy process for anyone... mind you I am working on dual boot with winmob so.... meh... try it. Its so easy that I change my rom about twice a week.

Hope my drivle was of some use to you. Any questions pm me somehow and i'll get back to you asap.

Can any one give me R2BA023 or R2BA025 files so i can Update it via

SEUS or Sonyericsson PC companion.

i dont need root .. just need the 2 files ..

please help me.
[XPERIA X10 General] brunswick000:
Well as far as i know R2BA025 doesnt even exist yet. Maybe im wrong but last i heard it was only rumored to be up-and-coming. Check Jepeleas post in decrypted roms to see if he has the latest R2BA023 posted yet.

I just checked and neither files are listed yet. Latest is R2BA020. Just be patient, they'll show up.
[XPERIA X10 General] mspl:
I Know .

but R2BA023 is already released and the performance is better then R2BA020;

i already have R2BA020 which i updated via SEUS by using the 2 files .

so i want the same 2 file for R2BA023;

R2BA025 will release soon which have better performance improvement.
[XPERIA X10 General] Alleniv:
+1 !!

I quote your request; it's mine too!! Can anyone share the "stock" and clean official R2BA023 ROM?????

I noted that in all the other threads in wich the same request appears, everyone who replies try to turn around... why?! : (((
[XPERIA X10 General] Mobzter:
I'm on rooted r2ba023 and some reason for me the battery isnt doing wel :-(
[XPERIA X10 General] op_darkschneider:
did the same for me, but after a couple of full charging turned good again :)
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
Isn't that a relatively known issue with high-tech batteries? I remember having to do a full recharge cycle one in a while on laptop batteries to keep them from losing calibration and reporting much lower charge than it actually had.

So can it be that updating the phone makes it lose the calibration thus showing incorrect status?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Corvidd:
Firstly, its my first post, so if its in the wrong category or whatever I apologise.

I factory reset my Magic, and the market was reset to version 1620, as opposed to 1682 which I think it was before.

The old version of the market is slow, and permissions can take up to a minute to load, some descriptions don't load at all, also its currently only showing top free and just in. I'm aware the absence of 'top paid' is a different problem by the way. And apps don't show updates blah blah blah.

Question is, how do I update it? Market.apk 's are hard to find online, although of course I haven't looked... because that would be piracy...

aTrackdog leads to the market saying it doesn't exist. It's been probably 2 weeks since factory resetting, and within that time I've turned it off and on again, battery-pulled, logged in and out of GTalk, force-stopped the market and market updater and opened it again etc etc.

To no effect. Something just needs to trigger it back into updating. Should I just try factory resetting again?

If you need any more info, I'll be quick.

Any suggestions much appreciated, however tenuous. I'll give it a go. I've tried asking this in other places but no one seems to really know. I figured this would be the place for android experts! By the way, I'm not rooted, its plain vanilla android 1.6

Surely someone knows?!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolvie77:
Hi! all. i'm trying to root my desire which has a Bootrom of 0.80. i went to modaco website & downloaded the file to start rooting. but upon reading the instructions i couldn't understand the 3rd point below. after unziping the file, i can't find any file call 'update.zip'. Would appreciate help.

•Make your microSD card into a goldcard by following these instructions (it's a good idea to back up the contents of your card first!).

•Unzip the file you downloaded to a directory, then open a command prompt / terminal window at that directory.

•Copy the 'update.zip' file to your microSD. Do NOT rename it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
dont unpack the file leave it as .zip, and dont rename it lol
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolvie77:
But the file I download is not call update.zip but some other name

do I still copy? If yes, copy to root of sd card?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolvie77:
Hi! all. maybe i provide the file name i downloaded hope it helps to solve my problem. its called 'r6-desire-root-alt.zip' i downloaded it & unzip it but can't find the so call update.zip file inside. Really appreciate anyone's assistance.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wieben:
Try using the video guide on www.theunlocker.com!

I did'it and it works like a charm!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
It duznt have to be called update.zip, just flash the zip how it is :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djoni1980:
Here's fake flash, properly named update.zip, so it doesn't confuse you

Just put it in root folder of your goldcard and do it :)

Can somebody explain me the differences between manila and tf3d??Is it the same thing and is there any way to configure tf3d with new themes icons etc???
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Agent Zach:
There are drastic changes to Manila/Sense compared to it's predecessor TouchFlo 3D.

Examples Include:

Sense/Manila: Different code, more graphically appealing elements, more "User-Friendly" functionality. A big difference is, Sense/Manila is a bit larger [In file size and Memory size] than TouchFlo 3D

Unlocked users also

Hello Guys,

I just ordered this phone unlocked. Since this is my first Samsung phone (I had an iPhone 3G) I am wondering if AT&T will push the update to me and since my phone was shipped from Hong Kong I would also like to know whether there is a download link from Samsung's site for patches and firmwares (official).

Side question; For those using an unlocked Galaxy S in the US, is there any 3G (data) issue you are noticing? how is performance and availability of 3G with 1900Mhz spectrum?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TravUK:
If your carrier doesnt push the update to you, you should be able to get it through Samsung Kies once its been released.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ogen:
Well we can only hope for this to be real. Sure would be nice :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pika007:
If Froyo for the SGS will pop up during the next 10 days as this article says it might, i'll eat my pants and post pics.

It's pretty impossible, considering samsung past with updates.

We'll see, would be nice tho, especially when it comes with some new drivers/updates to iron out the little bugs
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sjdean:
Im thinking in this, we shouldn't forget about Samsungs tablet device, which seems like a big Samsung Galaxy S. The rumour there is that is going to come with FroYo 2.2 right from the off.

Makes sense to converge the software, so there is a very real possibility Samsung have been working on a FroYo release for a while.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TravUK:
As well as the hoofing great big ones :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] d0p3d:
While they are at it, why not :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] landale:
While I doubt we will see Froyo in the next week or two it looks like they may have had some models at the Samsung launch even running Froyo. I noticed in Phonearena's preview of the Samsung Vibrant they tilted the phone to the right and it went into landscape. Unless something has changed I thought this was only possible with Froyo so maybe they are closer to releasing it then we think. I can't post a link to the video because I am new here but you can catch the rotation to the right at the 19 second mark.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tyxerakias:
Unfortunately you thought wrong... it is already possible, and more small reason for this phone's awesomeness :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] landale:
I didn't realize this was possible on Android 2.1 or is it just something Samsung added to the Galaxy S? If so I have to agree thats a pretty cool addon!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kcharng:
As much as I really wish it was true, looking at the track records, it is not very promising. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] crabby09:
It is galaxy so specific. :-)

Phone's great... But Froyo would be greater!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrNetwork:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] AshMa:
There was a demo video where the reporter was told that the demo he was holding was 2.2 but that it was not going to ship with it. This was the ATT Captivate version and I saw the article on one of the big tech blogs, but I can't remember which one. Anyone??? I remember reading the info and thinking why on earth do they have 2.2 on a demo device only.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hihihehe:
there wont be a froyo in next 1-2 months... :)

don ask me why
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AshMa:
This is one of the reasons I'm considering Apple. Is it too much to ask to purchase a new device that won't have an update in less than 6 months of owning it. On Windows Mobile, I had over 130 apps installed. It took me many painfully long hours installing and setting them all up. A flash to a new OS version means doing everything all over again. I'd love to buy a device, install a 100 apps do all my settings and then use the device for at least 6 months if not longer, without having to worry about starting all over.

Buying an SGS right now sounds good but as I would sit here installing and tweaking the heck out of it; it would all be with the nagging feeling that hey in a few months from now, I'm gonna have to do it all over again after installing Froyo.

Am I the only one who feels this way? Devices are nice, but the nicest thing about them is to be happy with them, while using them out in our lives and not having to mess with them way too often.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rodh257:
ios updates fairly regularly as well. I thought android perserved your apps after updating?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrNetwork:
It sounds like you are trying to imply you have some inside information, but you can't talk about. It that's the case, don't expect anyone to believe you. Anyone can start a whispering campaign.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
There's a simple answer to this..... Backup.

Use Sprite Backup which will save your Android 2.1 files and when you upgrade to 2.2 you just click on the backup you created to put back all your contacts, messages, applications, icons, photos, videos, music, etc. etc...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AshMa:
I'm not sure but don't those ios OTA updates not change your data files, programs and settings?

Wow! I did not know that it really works that way on Android. Thanks!!! I've been using Sprite on Windows Mobile for years, and that does not work too well for restoring after a flash.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
No problem....

BTW, If you go search for Sprite, be careful as you will jump to the WM version.

You need to type http://www.spritesoftware.com/products/android

The WM version is at http://www.spritesoftware.com/products/sprite-backup/full-edition

Another nice to note is the Android version will allow you to do an Online backup to Box.net or Dropbox for free!

I have a DropBox account and it works great.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AshMa:
Thanks again! Just added it to my list of apps to purchase and yet another reason to stick with Android.......
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kcharng:
Regular updates that improve stability and performance is surely better than no update yes?

Not implying that 2.1 is not a great andriod, but 2.2 is better. You can choose to stay with 2.1 a little bit longer if it suits your time table, but either way you have a choice. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AshMa:
Oh no what I meant is that we all know 2.2 is here and MUCH better/faster than 2.1 and so even before buying an SGS, I know that I will want the upgrade, whenever it comes out (so in other words it leaves a sour taste, knowing that I'm buying the new it superphone with an already outdated OS version).

The problem for me is, I get an SGS soon as Verizon or perhaps the T-Mobile version comes out. Then from that point onward, all the work I put into it, would have been all for nothing or rather all the time I put into it, would have been all for nothing since 2.2 will be out within a few months or less after getting the SGS on launch day.

Then again, as Beards posted above, I guess I now have options and even if all doesn't go smooth, one upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2 and having to start over, won't be the end of the world. It's just that it really does take me 5 to 6 hours to setup a device to perfection. And that's 5 or 6 hours after spending many more hours, finding all the right free and paid apps I want and the ones I need for both business and personal use. PDA's are serious business to this business owner and I can't be without them and have not been without them since 1998 (HP Jornada).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
A man after my own heart..... As a busy Senior Consultant Surgeon I depend 'very' heavily on my PDA/Phone.

Just as you, the hardware MUST perform flawlessly in the areas where I deem it to be so.

In doing so I've had to invest a lot of time and effort into getting the right software installed and keeping the Phone in tip-top working order.

So yes, I fully understand where you are coming from on this. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AshMa:
Good to know there are still other people who need these devices far and beyond just wanting the best new toys. As a teen I wanted the best gadgets even though I had no real need for them. But now it's the need that's far more important than the want. But hey, why not get both filled with a superphone like this. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ewingr:
Are you saying that unlike WinMO, you can backup apps from a device on one OS version, and restore only the apps back to a newer OS, w/o restoring the old OS?

No registery (or similarly functioning files) to get overwritten from teh restore?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TexUs:
Hate to break it to you, but even minor (3.1.2 to 3.1.3) iPhone OS updates have rendered all of my apps useless before. Apple's only fix is to re-install them. At least with Android you get backup utilities.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
Android works differently to WinMob.

Even the backup application MyBackup Pro (another very good backup App) will allow you to select to backup either Applications or Data. You simply choose which you want to backup.... or do two seperate backups and do both.

It then generates two files which when after you have done whatever to your phone you simply run the files built in script and it unarchives and then restores the files backed up.

Have a read of this from RerWare, the makers of MyBackup Pro.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ewingr:
Wow. Thanks Bears.

All the more reason to go for Android :D

If you have no idea what rooting is, and if you haven't seen the post about rooting without unlocking your bootloader. I'd advise you to stick with stock. It's pretty hard to brick the N1, but if you know nothing at all about rooting, and the advantages, then you don't need to play with your phone, you just might F something up. The phone cost too much for you to be experimenting.:eek:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clarkster:
Sounds like your not the type to do this. I would recommend keeping your phone the way it. By the sounds of it, you would probably break it beyond repair.

You don't care about learning about it, you don't read about it, and you haven't even spent the time to look up what the terms mean.

Everything is here on the forums, spend the time.

If you do not want to actually do the work, you will most likely break your phone, then come crying back to us.

Request-anyone knows how 2 get the "older buttons" showing at bottom of HTC Sense?

Dear Chefs

First of all congratulations for all the efforts in bringing out newer Roms so often. It is always a joy to try new things on the HD2. Just one tiny request.

Is it possible to get back the 'older' style text buttons at the bottom of the HTC sense screen? The main reason is that they take up less space (even though the newer ones look nicer). Besides the HD2 has 5 hardware buttons at the bottom which do the same job.

Is there some registry tweak which could do the trick?
