here is another method that i use.

Open explorer and copy your desired tones in My Device/Windows/Rings.

Now goto home screen and click on settings.

Click on menu, there u click on All Settings

U will see option of Clocks and alarm, goto alarms, set the time and then click on drag down button. u will see ur copied tone there, select that and here you go!!

I have Handcent installed... I like it a bit better because it doesn't chug like the default SMS app we have installed, not to mention I have some people blacklisted that I don't want showing up. How can I remove the stock SMS program while only keeping Handcent? Also, if someone could post a backup of the default SMS apk that would be great.

Could we even install just the stock android apk in lieu of what we go preinstalled with our phone? I'm really sick of the chugging some apps experience on this phone. It really shows a lack of care when making the applications.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Terberculosis:
I am no expert here, but I believe removing the HTC messaging app will cause problems. The OS tries to call it into memory when the phone boots, so if you remove it, Sense will keep calling it in a loop, and run your battery down. It might be possible to replace it with the vanilla android SMS app, but I think you might need to get in and tinker with the ROM to correct for differences between them(name, location, services etc.).

Your safest bet is going to be to wait until a ROM you like comes around and flash it. You should be able to install and use whichever messaging app you wish if the ROM is cooked well.

Does anyone have the stock SMS app from android? Non HTC?

hey guys i'm having problem in adb when i put the remount command

it gives this message : opreation remount not prometted

why is that??? i'm rooted on ba023 and a lot of programs that use su is working correctly :confused:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] HunteronX:
Try typing 'su' (without inverted commas) before that command, when using your phone, and on a PC, do 'adb shell su' or 'adb shell' then 'su'. The command should now work.

You have to do this, if you followed the 'secure root' instructions before.

Hi apologies for the question in advance!!!

Im trying to flash a radio onto my O2 stock rom .. i ave successfully put hspl on device but when i try to flash the radio nothig happens????

I have renamed radio RUU_Signed.nbh and when i run custom ruu i get a prompt from computer to allow programme which i do and then nothing happens

THIS IS DRIVING ME MAD I HAVE SEARCHED THE FORUMS WATCHED THE YOU TUBE DEMO AND CANT THINK OF ANYTHING IM DOING THAT IS WRONG ????????????????????????????????????????????:(:confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Foggy79:
Have you tried to copy the radio file (rename it to LEOIMG) to your SD card, reboot while holding volume down, and flash from there?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barny1:
Will give it a go now thanks for the help much appreciated:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barny1:
NO LUCK STILL WONT WORK IM SURE IM JUST DOING SOMETHING WRONG BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT...

ABOUT TO THROW PHONE:mad:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
you did unzip teh radio file and extract the .nbh, right? you didnt just rename the zip(or rar, or 7z, whatever) to .nbh did you?

(by teh way, for usb flashing, no need to change teh filenmame at all, just extract the .nbh, put in folder with customruu.exe, and run customruu. And of course this wont work if your spl ends .0000)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Foggy79:
So you copied the radio file (named LEOIMG) to the root of your SD card?

You get past the 3 colored bootloader?

What msg do you get, whats happening?

Edit: What samsamuel said, you have to unzip the file first ofc
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barny1:
Hi yes to above i did extract, tried custumruu no joy, tried renaming LEOIMG AND SAVING TO SD CARD ROOT hold power and down volume , it goes into bootloader and just sits there doing nothing in the red band it says SPL-2.08 HSPL, and in the white band it says SERIAL?????????????????:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
does your pc run avast or mcafee? they can disable customruu. you can tell because when you run it nothing at all happens.

as for sd card failing, have you formatted it since you got it? cos the o2 stock one comes formatted to FAT but need to be FAT32 for flashing.

also, many 16gb and some 8gb cards can be temperemental
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barny1:
Thank you everyone

problem was with the computer not the process tried it on the desktop instead of lap top and it worked first time:):)
[Streak 5 General] spacecat:
Had my streak for just over a week of now coming from a HTC Hero

on 2.2

Basically size DOES matter! Sorry all of you with small ones

The Hero is a top phone but the difference in user experience simply having a larger screen is night and day plus the extra power of the cpu. Despite the hero being on 2.2

I Am able to read PDFs easily, web pages and films and books are so much better.

I Am not a great talker but have bought a BT headset.

I will keep my hero for when I need phone a lot ie going out

but the streak feels like the perfect combo of size and portability

I can't see myself ever going back to a smaller screen

If media, internet and reading is your thing this is it
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
Yep true to all that and some, and just think what it will be like once 2.2 is on board
[Streak 5 General] ComfySofa:
I agree. Just got rid of a HD2 and while it was a good phone up til this point it was the best id had.

See who agrees with me:

Your on your phone - you bring up your mail, Opera, pdf....whatever and then you get to a point where you think....ill just go and do this on the pc as its easier.......

Not with this phone....it really is that good...
[Streak 5 General] Muo:
All true, I love this phone. Size (like 7 extra inches) really does matter.
[Streak 5 General] samstables:
I couldn't agree more. Why would I want to squint at a teeny 3.5" or 4" screen when I can still carry the Streak everywhere with me and browse websites, read books and watch movies on a super duper 5" screen.

I still can't get over the fact I can read the screen outside - and I only noticed today that it was set to the lowest brightness when I was sat in bright sunlight checking emails!
[Streak 5 General] wondercoolguy:
When Froyo hits the streak it has auto adjust built into it
[Streak 5 General] dkwelton:
from what everybody is reporting i definitely want this!!!
[Streak 5 General] talboy:
It already has it on the steak even on 1.6

settings>sound and display>tick auto back light
[Streak 5 General] elbowz:
I'm completely in agreement... trying to go back to the 4" screen on my X10 has been unmanageable, the display just feels painfully small... I installed SE's latest update and other than that haven't touched it since the Streak arrived, even my laptop sits untouched in the last week or so...
[Streak 5 General] fards:
guys we keep trying to tell you Dell have included a fair chunk of extras that people clammer for with 2.2 in the 1.6 build anyway.

despite the silliness amongst some reviewers they have done a good job with it running 1.6, it's not that big a thing.
[Streak 5 General] spacecat:
I hear yah.

apart from flash support and some Apps its all good for me
[Streak 5 General] cue_32:
I can't wait for this to come out this week. I'm in Canada and it sux that I gotta make the hour trip just to get it, but I'm sure it will be worth it. Rumour has it that when it gets released, 2.1 OTA is available upon activation.

All 4" phones (Galaxy S, X10, etc) seem micro-sized to me now :) even the HD2/Evo is on the cusp of being too tiny! (Although they are still bigger than standard 4")
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tenshi888:
I don't know if this has been posted here yet. Up until now, the only way I thought we could mount the SGS' built in storage and SD card to a Mac was to enable "debug mode" and then choose to Mount the drives.

The better way:

Go to Menu>Settings>About phone>USB settings>Ask on connection or Mass Storage

Next time you hook it up to your Mac just choose "Mass Storage" then mount the drives.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Xurok:
Hi, doesn't seem to work with me, when I use mass storage there is no auto-mount and there is no new drive to mount into disk utility, I run OSX Snow Leopard

[Galaxy S I9000 General] diamond69:
Hello!

my old phone (wm6.1 htc diamond) has been stolen yesterday. i have got a backup of this device including messages and contacts. the backup was made by spb backup.

now i bougt a new phone...a sexy galaxy s i9000 *happy*

after a huge look on google, i found out, that the software "sprite migrate" is able to transfer contacts+sms from wm6 to android.

here comes the problem.... i've only got the backup made with spb backup, but no device to restore the backup on (then i could use sprite migrate to transfer everything to android..)

is there at least any chance to get all the contacts&sms exported from the spb-backup file?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] padlad:
I have not tried this nor have i fully read it, but maybe this?:

http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/backup/unpack.html
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
if you have the Original Full version of the spb backup, with the windows desktop client, then yes you can export the SMS.

but there is no easy way to import it into your Android phone.

as for contacts, that's the easiest thing, just connect to Google Contacts, and select import from a CSV file

use the SPB backup client export to export a CSV file

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Hepæstus:
To preface I am ignorant of the practical process/exploit for each of these devices. Knowledge of which may completely negate the point made here.

*CAUTION: Philosophical musings below*

It seems like we are seeing the most recent root successes being a result of a Race Condition exploit, as in: the Incredible, the ERIS ("Leakers" root) and, as far as I can tell so far, the DROID X.

Have devs stumbled upon a cross device methodology for achieving Root access on android based devices? Give the sheer variety upon android based devices I would have thought that a common approach to rooting being out of the question in anymore then a purely conceptual sense. Now,it seems like I may be wrong, and a common approach (baring certain practical differences) is in fact possible.

Thoughts?

[Captivate General] Hockey37:
I have 2 Microcells, one at my home and one at my office. It seems on both of them that I have a problem connecting to data about 50% of the time. Once I connect, it seems to work fine for a bit. But getting that initial connection can take some time on occasion. I don't ever recall having an issue like this with my Tilt 2.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
[Captivate General] uberamd:
I have this issue with my device in general. It will say its connected but applications can't use the data. I at times need to either toggle wifi or airplane mode to get it to work correctly. This is incredibly annoying.
[Captivate General] d2010d:
I just bought a micro tower and noticed this issue with captivate... haven't had time to look in to the problem... sometimes I can't access websites without refreshing several times, and sending data, ie pictures to gmail...
[Captivate General] Hockey37:
Update

Today I stopped in an AT&T store to see about possibly trying to exchange my phone for a new one to see if this was the issue.

The store rep called tech support, and what they said they did was they pushed an over-the-air update to both my microcells and my Captivate. When I got home, I power cycled my phone and microcell. Once the microcell regained connection, I restarted the phone again to be safe. I have been browsing the Android Market for about 30 minutes now, and have not had to refresh for data one time. Before I was lucky to go 5 minutes before the data cut out and I had to try and refresh several times. This seems to have fixed the problem.

AT&T tech support is to follow up with me on Monday to see if the issue is fixed. Seems for now that it is.

i moved from windows mobile to android just about a month ago, and to be honest android is substantially better in every way possible, been loving it

now the only thing that has really bothered me is that the default email app from android is a piece of crap... unless you use gmail of course because gmail only has labels and it flushes all your email to a single folder.

i use hotmail and i receive many emails so i do need to use the folders, and i have to have them organized as such in my phone. windows mobile used arcsoft to organize the folders, and it worked great, but i haven't found a similar alternative on android or the market, does anyone know of one?

i even have an iTouch and there is an application in the iOS market that will arrange your emails into folders like they are found in my e-mail...

any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dwertz:
Android email does use folders. It is up to the email provider to provide the folders by the protocols they use. To get folders you must use IMAP email protocol. I believe most have it but I do know hotmail does not have it. They used to when you paid for the yearly service but they no longer support it. You can only do hotmail by POP.

Oh forgot to add when you are in your email if you go to menu it will have the folders option to select
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] revlis240:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] morpheus6d9:
QFT.................
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] X-Kenshin-X:
i have used it. K9 also flushes all my email into a single folder, there is no way of selecting other folders...

why is there no such app? it's such a simple task.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dehelflix:
k9 does it, just not by default, you gotta mess with the settings...i dont have it installed right now but you need to change some folder view to none in account settings....it will be on inbox by default. when you change it to none all your imap folders will show up.

sorry i dont know the exact setting
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] revlis240:
K9 definitely does ALL my gmail folders and my other imap folders as well. you have to learn their folder structure and then its easy. There is a tutorial on their site i think. Its called folder classes, you chose what class to designate the folder, and then you chose general class display and sync settings.

What does QFT mean? edit> QUOTED FOR TRUTH ...nice thats a new one to me! lol
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] X-Kenshin-X:
gmail doesn't have folders...

and what do you mean by class? will it filter all messages and put them on a folder due to keywords or something like that?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] revlis240:
gmail has labels = folders

download k9 mail and explore its display/sync structure and itll make sense. If you want to filter by keyword then you need to set that up in gmail, not your mail client on the phone.

For example, I have a filter that filters everything with the word craigslist in it and puts it in a label called Craigslist. Then on the phone, if I see that folder/label in k9.

Not to sound rude, but ditch hotmail. its a terrible email service. The whole point of android is to embrace google/gmail!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] X-Kenshin-X:
gmail's labels -do not- = folders

why? because labels filter email's by keywords.

on email clients that support folders, you can grab a bunch of different emails from many different places and put them into one folder because they have a common trait for you that a single keyword could not narrow down.

also if you have folders you can forward all mail from a certain domain to that folder...

anyways the list goes on. i knew someone would say that, if i could replace my hotmail with a gmail i would, but for reasons beyond this thread that is not an intelligent thing to do for me, i have a lot of business, and accounts linked to that email, and that is impossible.

i also have 2 separate gmail accounts that i use for other things. i know gmail is better as far as speed, but defenetly not for organization. teens might be ok with labels, but professional people need folders. and anyways hotmail is no longer a slow email client like it was 4 years ago, it's actually very fast now.

ok so now back to k-9... ok so you're saying that k9 doesn't actually have the ability to create folders?? because you just said that i have to set up the labels on my gmail?? so then that means i can't create folders?

wow... if only microsoft wheren't such sour grapes, they should create a windows mobile app for droid...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] revlis240:
No, not JUST by keywords, they can filter by recipient, sender, keyword, subject, message, with/without attachment or even lack of words

And in gmail you can check off which ever item you want from ANYWHERE and press move to> label "x" how is that any different than dragging items in outlook into a folder?

I do this with 2 of my private domains., because you can filter my recipient, or sender. My private domains have their own labels within gmail.

Not to sound like a mean guy, but I am not a teenager. I have 2 businesses that I run/live off of email and if I can make the switch from outlook to Gmail, I have no idea what great argument you can provide that would be valid. EVERYTHING outlook did, gmail does, albeit slightly differently...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] X-Kenshin-X:
my argument is that i need to use THAT email account and no other, like i said, if that was an option i would've switched 5 years ago, so stop arguing BS.

i need a sort of hotmail imap support app, or something... because i read that imap will preconfigure your folders for your email client app.

I keep reading the same discussions, SWYPE vs. Multitouch, Multitouch vs. IME, Shapewriter VS. SWYPE.....

How about this. I prefer to use a regular keyboard (IME, touchpal, multitouch) with two hands (or fingers) when Im in Landscape mode. When I want to send a quick reply or type a quick email (usually when Im driving, i know.. its bad) I hold the phone with one hand in Portrait mode and thats when I really like SWYPE or Shapewriter. So I would surmise that a GREAT app at this point would allow for one keyboard to be default in Portrait and the other to be default in Landscape. I currently switch back and forth and its a pain in the a$$...

Thanks for listening to my rant.
