I was recently at the beach and got a little sand in my headset jack. After I got back from the beach my headset icon started blinking on and off randomly. I blew out the sand using compressed air and that fixed the problem, but only for a minute or two. I took the phone apart and blasted the inside with air, but it still didn't fix the problem. Does anyone have any ideas on what I could do to fix the problem?
[Captivate General] JoshIV34:
When you root do you have to manually update to froyo or does it give you the option?

and if you do have to do it manually is it the same?
[Captivate General] davidusr:
I know on my Nexus One, it was rooted and the Froyo update was received. As long as the bootloader is not changed, you should still get OTA's.

Sorry if this has been covered already, I did search but could not find a response that suited.

I was using an HTC Touch Dual, on plugging into my desktop dock it synced with Microsoft Outlook, this was appointments, contacts, calendar etc. I want to do the same with my N1. I assume I need an App that works in a similar fashion to Windows Mobile Device Centre? I did do a little scouting about but a lot referenced doing so via Google. I prefer a non-online method if possible, plug and sync.

Can anyone suggest the best app or apps to acheive this please.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bullyfrog:
You can check out 'missing sync for android'. They have for both pc & mac.

That being said, i'm afraid i can't be of any more help as i've not used it. Personally pefer syncing to google's cloud :-)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djpleasure:
totally new, what is google cloud? and thanks for the info, i'll check it out, in the meantime if anyoone else has any suggestions, please respond.

Additionally, can apps be installed to memory card? if so, how in laymans terms

wow, $39 dollars just to be able to sync :-(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Your Google account, which keeps all the data (contacts, calendar etc) in sync with your phone over the air (or actually, over the data connection or WiFi). It wasn't designed to be plugged in to sync.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeMonkey:
Assuming you're okay with syncing your Outlook data via the cloud and not only looking for a direct (ie plugged in) syncing solution, then gSyncit is a good utility to use to sync Outlook data to Gmail account; it's $14.99.

I used to use it before I switched from Windows to Mac at home.

http://www.daveswebsite.com/software/gsync/
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostinbeta:
I use the Google Cloud too. My info is available in the same form on my computer, my phone, and online. Contacts and Calendar at least. Best part of that method is that if you flash your phone it auto-downloads all your info from your google account when you log-in to through first boot. No plugging in and resyncing. I'm on a Mac, and this is the easiest and cheapest option for me. I won't shell out for Missing Sync because it gave me nothing but headaches for my former WinMo device. Other files are saved to my SD card and I can move them around as I please. Either via USB transfer or Dropbox.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djpleasure:
where do i find google cloud please
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeMonkey:
We're using the term 'cloud' here to refer to cloud computing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computing) where data is stored by third parties (in this case Google) and accessed via the internet.

Essentially what we're suggesting is that you sync your N1 with your PC's data via Google, ie the third party utilities mentioned above can sync to and from your PC to your GMail account (calendar, contacts, etc). Your N1 will then sync to and from your GMail account.

HTH
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djpleasure:
many thanks, i'll check the info out, still a shame there is not an offline method, so far being the only downside since my change from htc touch dual on windows mobile.

got past the fault, have synced my outlook with my gmail account, however my phone is not synced with it, where am i going wrong please
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
In your phone it asks you for default account to sync with, when you just start it for the first time.

If you skipped that part - make sure you're on data connection (preferrably WiFi or fast 3G data), go to Settings / Accounts & Sync, press "Add account", add your Gmail account, and enjoy.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeMonkey:
I'm running my copy of gsyncit at work on Windows 7 64bit without any issues - I run the 64bit release as I use Office 2010 there.

Best bet is check the faqs on the developer's site, or failing that contact Dave himself - I've always found him very helpful in the past.

[Vibrant General] psychedelicx:
Love the phone, but looks like the only way to control audible notifications is either all on or all off (Silent mode).

Is there anyway to setup Profiles similar to the blackberry so that

1. I can have all notifications on silent and only the phone ringer on (e.g. at night)

2. Email notifications only (e.g. at work)

Any help that does not require rooting the phone would be appreciated.

Thanks!
[Vibrant General] Col.Kernel:
Tasker should do it. I just dug into it a bit and it seems possible. I haven't tested it.

[Vibrant General] psychedelicx:
Thanks I'll give it a shot!
[Vibrant General] moonrock:
You can also try out Locale. It'll set different profiles (ring, screen timeout, brightness, volume, etc) based on various different scenarios - time, date, location, specific contact... and there are plugins to make it do even more. :)

I LOVE Locale.
[Vibrant General] Col.Kernel:
I tried Locale when it was in beta. I'm sure it's grown since then but Tracker is OMG what can't it do?

By all means check them both out and pick the one that works best for you.
[Vibrant General] Croak:
Settings Profiles from the Market works great too. A lot more powerful than Locale, but also a bit more complex to set up.

I just want to inform you that I succesfuly unlocked my X10A (Telce, Mexico) using the service of htccode. It's a little expensive but it`s works. The attention was very good even that we had to try the procedure in two differents days, but when it worked the process took less that one minute.

I don`t have any relation with this page, but because many of us wants to unlock their X10, I thought it was a good idea to tell you my expience.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvirginia:
i've been searching for like hours and haven't found a thread on this. is there any way to just flash a custom battery for the notification bar? i'd like the green circle battery that can be found in the Baked Snack ROM (as well as a few others). i tried ripping it out of this ROM but failed, even though i was following the structure of some battery update zip file i found laying around here. thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thegame3202:
What rom are you running? DC? I will be porting it to CYANMOD when it becomes an RC. If you want to try it yourself, use adb and do these:

pull the framework-res.apk from /system/framework/

open the apk using 7zip

copy the "res" folder somewhere so you can work on it

Under drawable, or drawable hdpi something you will see "stat_sys battery" with all of your battery icons.

Copy the new icons to that folder replacing the old ones, drag the res folder back into the apk using 7zip

and copy the apk back to /system/framework/framework-res.apk

Done and Done....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvirginia:
thanks! :p

do i have to use adb though? i can't seem to get it to run, but maybe that's because i'm running a cmd window already, not sure because i can't stop it.

edit: nvm, i was getting ahead of myself there for a sec haha. thanks again!!!

edit2: and yes, Damage Control. the other ROMs i've tried were great but data numbers didn't work, google goggles didn't work, visual voicemail didn't work...and i even tried all the little tricks for visual voicemail/data numbers and still couldn't get it to work. DC is the best fully functional ROM imo next to the stock ROM.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thegame3202:
Haha, yeah use adb. Might be able to do it without... but i don't know how. Maybe use a file manager to copy the file to your sd card, then transfer to your comp, do the above, then do the opposite to get it back...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvirginia:
yup, that's what i'm gonna try. if not then i'll figure it out. i really just wasn't sure which files needed to be replaced. i knew a few, but not all.

ps - i'll keep an eye out for your version of the CM RC.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UrbanMuppet:
Tried this last night with the GPS icon and it still showned on reboot. :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvirginia:
alright so i just now got this working lol

i prob used a more complicated way of changing it but that's because adb would just crash for whatever reason.

for anyone else who wants to do what i did, these were my steps

using a computer:

1. extract the ROM zip file you're trying to modify the battery for

2. navigate to system/framework

3. open framework-res.apk with 7zip

4. double click res

5. double click drawable-hdpi

6. copy your new modified battery icons into this drawable-hdpi folder to replace

7. re-zip the ROM

8. re-sign the ROM

9. re-flash

i'm sure you can do this without having to re-flash your ROM, but this is what i did, it worked, and that's all that matters :p

big thanks again to thegame!

pull the framework-res.apk from /system/framework/

open the apk using 7zip

copy the "res" folder somewhere so you can work on it

Under drawable, or drawable hdpi something you will see "stat_sys battery" with all of your battery icons.

Copy the new icons to that folder replacing the old ones, drag the res folder back into the apk using 7zip

and copy the apk back to /system/framework/framework-res.apk
[Vibrant Android Development] Koush:
WARNING: You must be comfortable using Odin when flashing this. It is very difficult to brick using Odin, but I don't want to handhold people through fixing their devices.

This is Clockwork Recovery beta 2, it is tailored for the Vibrant. Please let me know how it works.

Recovery/Boot TAR download (do NOT extract):

http://koush.tandtgaming.com//test/package1279903787.tar

Installation instructions:

Install Odin3 v1.0 (MAKE SURE THIS IS THE VERSION YOU USE)

Start Odin3

Press PDA

Select the tar file (do NOT extract)

Start phone into download mode.

Press START to flash.

After 20 seconds or so, phone should automatically reboot.

Please join #koush on irc.freenode.net to report bugs. I can't check all 4 XDA threads :)

Works for me...but so did the first one...so I guess risk may still remain for others.

Ok so I started ODIN, put my phone into download mode, and opened up the new PDA file.

Now my Odin has been stuck on this message for the last 10 mins.

<ID:0/004> Added!!

<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..

<ID:0/004> File analysis..

<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/004> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/004> zImage

And my phone is still in download mode. I don't wanna pull the wire or turn the phone off and mess something up hehe.

Also was I suppose to load the .pit file into odin too?
[Vibrant Android Development] fykick:
Yes, when flashing you always need to load the PIT file. I use 512 as it doesnt cause as many problems. Try to hit reset on odin and load the pit file and flash again...As long as you didn't have repartition clicked you should be fine. And without the PIT file it prob didn't even flash anything.
[Vibrant Android Development] kugeln:
It'll also stay like that if you forget to check "Force Reboot".
[Vibrant Android Development] fykick:
While this didn't brick my phone...it made my brand new out of the box vibrant to where it doesnt boot the stock firmware. Thought it was working fine, but spoke too soon. And now it just boots back to the battery indicator everytime. Nothing a new flash can't fix, but just saying for feedback purposes.

****Edit****

Phone just randomly booted....it seems to be acting erraticly...not sure what the difference that caused the phone to start booting.
[Vibrant Android Development] aloxotls:
Same as fykick if I leave the usb plugged in. If I take the usb out and turn it on it gets to the lock screen and then reboots, continuously.

Edit:

Did a wipe and rebooted the phone a couple of times and now it is running ok

[Vibrant Android Development] msw1382:
I was successful in flashing clockwork and successfully created a nandroid.

There were however issues that were present with the 1st build. The phone would loop reboot if the SD card was inserted. If removed the phone would boot and stay functional, however once the card was inserted it would reboot loop again within a couple min. Had "force closes" on the market and file manager.

Oh and the only other thing was the "Home" button acted as a back button.

I posted these on the irc channel Koush, but I do not believe you were in there at the time.

For those of you having huge issues, following this should set you straight.

EDIT: I'm a retard... I must have messed up vol down plus power my first try, and having flacked an international firmware in the past I had trouble booting to download mode, so I didn't try it again until after much headache and it worked fine even though in the recovery rom the buttons were flipped... silly me... cough cough... and just to torture myself more I will try flashing again...

Anyone know if it's possible to do? Or is this something that I could fix/change if I go to the default Android Calendar app? Any help would be appreciated!
