[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
if you want to be safe dl rooted stock rom, flash radio then wimax then rom, once thats done do a nandroid backup of that then a nandriod restore of cm6 presto all warm and fuzzy with backups.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
This is correct you can always just re flash a rooted stock rom to get back to the ... rooted stock rom. since CM6 nightly is still a bit touch and go and probably not ready to be most peoples daily driver i would suggest doing this sooner rather then later so you have a fall back.

This isnt exactly true. It does not back up radios, hboot, recovery. This usually isnt a big deal unless you are switching between roms using 1.47 and the older radios.

What i personally do is keep a fall back nandroid (or nand both same) of the stock rom as well as one for each rom i tend to play with (right now i have a cm6, dc3.5, and dc 3.2.3) this way i can easily restore to the roms i am playing with (cm6 dc 3.5) or back to my daily driver (dc 3,2,3) with out having to much of an issue.

unzip the apk then install to your phone

Is this the latest version of this? Was looking for version 1.2.02 RC2. Not sure if its any better or has any bug version fixes from version 1.1.7 RC6(PROD).

Would appreciate any help.

Thanks.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokealot.dk:
Hey guys

Yesterday i found a HTC Hero lying around at the office, i asked by boss about it and he said that i could have it if i got i working... :-)

The problem is that when u turn it on, u will only see the "Hero logo" and get a small vibrator beep.

This is anoying since the phone cant make a USB connection to my computer, so i cant use any official HTC flashing software, im therefore kinda limitet to placing files on the sdcard.

Ive tried going to the "android system recoveru utility" and performed a wipe / factory reset.

ive also tried downloading:

update-hero-generic-2.73.405.5-signed.zip

and renaming it to "update.zip", placing it on the sdcard (in root folder)

and run the "apply sdcard:update.zip"

but i get "No signature", Installation aborted.

finally ive tried the HBOOT option, extracting rom.zip from the 2.73.405.5 official WWE RUU package (the exe), and renaming it to HEROIMG.zip. but im just gettin a "No image or wrong image" failure.

I dont know what else to try, any of u guys got at suggestion, its very welcome. I dont wanna trash the phone, if there is any way of fixing it.

thx on advance
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokealot.dk:
Thx for the answer, got around it using fastboot usb. and an proper driver.
[Desire General] 1ns4nity:
Hi Guys,

DOes anyone experience the problem of the desire killing off active/background apps even though there still is 100MB of RAM left??

I'm on Leedriod 1.5 and i have autokiller installed with just "optimum" settings active. I also have process manager installed without the auto kill service activated.

Regardless of what I do and how many apps I open, my free RAM can never drop below 100MB. The phone just starts killing off the background processes at that point.

Can anyone help me figure out why this is happening?

Thanks!!
[Desire General] pascanu:
How can you blame the OS when you have an active task killer installed???
[Desire General] doggie123:
AND it isn't even a stock Desire but a rooted one, running who knows what settings.

My car drives badly after I changed the engine and put two handbrakes on... LMAO!
[Desire General] cgrec92:
things like this i do not simply understand

a taskmanager: ends processes to free up ram

your question: why is my ram so high?

PLEASE tell me you see the resemblance.
[Desire General] Meaple:
What a useless topic
[Desire General] 1ns4nity:
Autokiller is only set to kill apps when free range reaches 50mb. However, the os seems to be doing it much earlier at 100mb.

That is the reason I'm asking. Just wanted to know if by default the desire 's settings are configured that way
[Desire General] foxmeister:
First of all, try removing all your task killers/process managers for a time and see what stock Android process management is doing. In addition, if you have spare parts installed, check that you haven't set process management to aggressive. Just because you've told your task killers not to start killing until there is less than 50mb free, doesn't mean that this is what they are actually doing!

IMHO, all auto task killers are a waste of time - having everything killed at 50mb free memory is just a waste of 50mb of memory, but that is beside the point! :)

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] neomagik:
I've had problems with echo whilst using my bluetooth car kit (nothing to do with the other echo problems people were having) It started with the original orange 'sense' rom. When I upgraded to Froyo (minus sense) the problem disappeared. I've tried most of the roms here and the Froyo+sense roms are the only ones to cause the problem.

Does anyone have any idea what in 'sense' it could be causing the problem and what I could try to resolve it?

I would just stick with one of the non sense roms but I want to retain fm radio and i can't get the flashlight app to work.
[Desire General] neomagik:
I found this on another forum. It opens briefly but than says "The application FM Radio (process com.htc.fm) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Force Close"

Can anyone suggest a solution?

[XPERIA X10 General] Izzy_Deadyet:
You rooted the X10 and now want to put it back to original firmware?

Lots of posts on the subject in the development forums.

[Droid X General] romanvail:
If recording HD video on the Droid X... copying the file or transferring the file over to your computer... does that actually keep the file real HD?

I heard of a few other "HD" phones or flip-like devices that did not keep the HD when moving the files outside of the actual device.

Let me know what you all know.

(Still waiting for my Droid X to ship to me)
[Droid X General] risktaker:
Yes, Export is 1280x720 wit frame rate of 23fps.

Audio is 96kbps/44hKz mono
[Droid X General] romanvail:
Thank you.

You think they will allow or stereo audio with the device having 3 mics?
[Droid X General] Yourrid:
What about when you hook it up to a HD Tv? I was thinking about putting movies on the memory card and then watching it directly on the Tv... Will it work/look like HD?
[Droid X General] kris7778:
Yup - the files are output over HDMI in 720P HD resolution. (It supports several resolutions) From what I've tried so far, you'll get the best results with MP4 videos encoded with .H264, with a resolution of 1280x720. (or close to that) I'm not sure what the bitrate is, but the files I encoded with handbrake are about 1 GB per hour of video. They look great on the phone and on widescreen TVs.

Note:

I also tried the HDMI output on a older 4:3 computer monitor over DVI (using a HDMI to DVI adapter). It does work - however, to match the video to the 4:3 aspect ratio, it lowers the resolution and puts black bars on the top and bottom. On a 16:9 TV or monitor, this does not happen.
[Droid X General] romanvail:
Thank you... exactly what I wanted to know.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] __arock__:
So I know this is possible (in theory),as I have seen non sense phones running sense. I am just looking for someone to point me in the right direction for information on how to do this (not sense of course). I downloaded the system dump from the captivate and was trying to figure out if its possible to port the home/launcher interface from it to the eris. I'd like to do in in a way that would be just like using a home replacement like adw or launcher pro, where you can toggle between it and the stock home. Not sure if that is possible but any info would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] socket84:
Hi guys,

another day, another tip!

Today I will explain how to change your system fonts at will, but as download and set them free.

You will say that our phone has this function ... But it is not true, or rather, this function has to pay.

To avoid spending money unnecessarily, I will explain where to download millions of characters and how to apply them in a few clicks!

Let's start!

What we need:

- Samsung Galaxy S i9000 ;) ;) ;)

- Phone rooted with STAND ALONE PROCEDURE (all credits to Leshak);

- IMPORTANT, BUSYBOX from Market;

- Gscript from Market (all credits of this app goes to PinkVenture, if you like it, buy a full version);

- My tips ;) ;) ;)

What will do:

- Download any font you like from THIS SITE (all credit goes to this site) or any site that lets you download free fonts;

- Create a folder called Fonts in you internal sdcard:

- Rename the downloaded font in 2 files called(2 files with differents names, same main file):

- Copy those file in /sdcard/Fonts;

- Start Gscript, leave it to take Superuser acces, then press on:

and close it;

- a new folder called gscript was created;

- Download my zip file contenets all of 3 scripts that we need:

- Copy all 3 scripts in the gscript folder on internal sdcard:

- Start Gscript and then press:

select the script that you want and check Need SU? then save;

- A new script is added!

- Press on the script you want and it start!

- Well done, the new font is applied!!

Archive password: socketandroid84

Needless to say that now you can choose any font you want and apply it without any problem with only 2 clicks quickly and safely!

I hope that the trick will be useful!

Update 06/08/2010 - LOOP SCREEN RESOLVED

- Before apply the scripts install BUSYBOX from MARKET; there is a bug in the old version of busybox installed by the update.zip for root our phone. It's install an old version of busybox that doesn't use the "cp" command.

So, when you go to remove and copy the new fonts though the script, it's remove the old ones but doesn't copy the new ones. You can resolve this bug simply install the last version of BUSYBOX from market!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] iTranceU:
Bravo!

I was wondering how to apply new fonts that I want besides those

from manufacturer. Thanks a lot :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] deadgamer:
Thanks. First time I tried changing fonts (not using this method) I ended up reflashing the whole thing because it got stuck on the i9000 welcome screen so be carefull dealing with fonts (yeah sounds weird I know) ^_^
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lenrek:
I thought we can change font:

Menu->Settings->Sound and Display->Font Style

I am still trying to figure out how to add more fonts.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] inku:
Thanks for the easy method.

My results:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sunwee:
is it possible to change the font size too? because some of the 3rd party fonts look really nice, but a bit too small when applied.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] socket84:
Really nice font!!! Can u upload it?? Thanks mate
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mikulec:
Are there any prerequisities for the fonts? Because I tried one and the phone got stuck in bootscreen, so I was forced to make a reflash of FW.

I found out that I have fonts with 2 different icons (all files are .ttf), one icon has TT and the other one has O on it (see attached screenshot).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] inku:
Thanks the font name is Bauhaus and is a paid font so i don't think i can share it sorry.

probably that one is a .otf font with a renamed extension.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] socket84:
Rigth. Download another TTF font, but pay attention, a real TRUE TYPE FONT!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] socket84:
FONT CREATOR can change the size too!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mikulec:
Thanks guys, I will try the "real" ttf font.

EDIT: working like a charm, thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AllGamer:
this is awesome!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] elumes:
Crap, I did the same thing :mad: - Gets stuck while booting...

Might want to give a clearer warning in the first post about the need for a true, ttf. I'm apparently way too anxious to get things going than reading all posts :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Aftashok:
ok, how do i reset? because i got stuck while booting after doing this smh....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alpayedo:
heck same here end up stuck at boot screen. is this really due to the font i want to switch? how do i know it's a real ttf font?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] socket84:
Every FONTS in this site work very well:

FONTS

If you want to reset, reflash or press the power button for 10 sec i think... search in the wiki!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] loinenavant:
For me, it worked once with 2.1, then, after flashing another 2.1 firmware it got stuck while booting.

With 2.2 it doesn't seem to work...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] furt890:
Stuck at loading screen too, only option is to flash ?? or is there any other option ?

Kind of lost how to reset the phone.

Is the only way to do it by pressing Volume down and turning it on?

Not in the mood to lose all my Data. :-/
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] x3gypxtianx:
Volume Up + Home + Power boots into recovery (what you'll need for reset)

Volume Down + Home + Power boots into download mode (used for flashing new firmware)

Thanks for the font tutorial! Very helpful!

:/ Try add sony sketch .ttf but its stuck on boot that means its no true type font ? or what ? Someone have working sony sketch font ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Fekke:
Is that Bauhaus font? I am not willing to pay for fonts... So is there any font that is similar for it or if i can download it for free somewhere?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] x3gypxtianx:
No, it's AvanteGarde. I'm a graphic designer, so I have a couple thousand fonts. However, you can find free fonts at http://www.1001fonts.com/ or http://www.dafont.com/. I prefer DaFont, but just keep in mind you need a font that provides both regular and bold for this to work. Or you can use a second font as your 'bold' font if you want to add a bit of additional flare to your phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zippokc:
i'm guessing people are getting stuck at the homescreen because the script deletes the fonts and are not replaced if busybox is not installed.

the "cp" copy command won't work without busybox. so install busybox from market and it should work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] socket84:
Update 06/08/2010 - LOOP SCREEN RESOLVED

- Before apply the scripts install BUSYBOX from MARKET; there is a bug in the old version of busybox installed by the update.zip for root our phone. It's install an old version of busybox that doesn't use the "cp" command.

So, when you go to remove and copy the new fonts though the script, it's remove the old ones but doesn't copy the new ones. You can resolve this bug simply install the last version of BUSYBOX from market!

Let me know if you resolve the problem. For me it's goes ok! If you have problems also after installed the latest version of BUSYBOX, i'll provide to upload a new script!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] loinenavant:
With 2.2 still no change... The font remains the same even after a couple of retries and reboots.

I have noticed that in the System > Fonts folder there are no DroidSans.ttf or DroidSans-Bold.ttf fonts by default (before applying this procedure), just the ones listed below. Maybe the script doesn't replace the right fonts?

Clockopia

DroidSansArabic

DroidSansFallback

DroidSansHebrew

DroidSansMono

DroidSansThai

DroidSerif-Bold

DroidSerif-BoldItalic

DroidSerif-Italic

DroidSerif-Regular

It would be nice to make it work somehow :)

openback clearly didn't steal the method, at least not from here, since the app itself it's from April. But that really matter anyway it's, does the app work on the SGS, or are there some differences preventing it to?
