Thanks a lot for your answer !

My build number is :

So the GoldCard is useless ? ( because i found this information in no one place )

Next to use FlashRec in 1.6, I have to be root no ?

My prob is :

- I have not rooted my phone ( so can't do anything ? )

- I can't use GoldCard ( as you said, my build number is larger than 1.91.163.1 )

- I am in 1.6

so :

- I can't back to 1.5 ( because not rooted, and no use of Goldcard possible )

- I can't use FlashRec ( because i'm in 1.6 )

So how can I get out this **** ? :(

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] keinengel:
You don't need root to use flashrec. Just try it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] oopinou:
I try FlashRec and can Download the cm-recovery but during Backup I get the error :

Then I check the invisible stars " * " to unlock Flashing of the img, and same error.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] JW 301:
Hi, i have a problem, I need some help solving it.

I have branded Hero (G2 Touch) on T-Mobile. Being tired of waiting for T-Mobile to release their branded 2.1, I followed some instruction on this board and installed generic 2.1. Sadly, the instruction used the RUU for directly installing 2.1 and I did this^^

When I try to install an old 1.5 RUU (t-mobile or generic) I always get the error 140 bootloader version.

I then tried the rooting method, now I managed to install the Amon Ra's Hero Recovery and that works quite good, as I now can use nandroid again (I couldn't do since the 2.73 update).

I managed to restore some backups that were on 1.76, and I had android 1.5 installed again, but still I couldn't install the 2.73 RUU, still getting the bootloader error.

Now, either somebody can tell me how to install the RUU, so I can get back to original t-mobile ROMs and can use OTA to get from 2.73 to android 2.1,

or, somebody could send me a nandroid backup with 2.73 installed.

there might be another possibility: I extracted the rom.zip from the T-mobile 2.73 RUU and tried installing it via recovery... I got an error while opening the file (bad).

has anybody an idea how to solve my problem? pls don't tell me 'install custom roms' i heard that often enough and simply don't want to (though I might give it a try as soon as working sense 2.2 ROMs are ready)... i want to get back to official T-Mobile ROMs

thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch General] pulser_g2:
You'll need to use this guide (http://villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=375) to make a goldcard, and downgrade using the HEROIMG.zip method (google it) :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] JW 301:
it doesn't work... I took the rom.zip, renamed it HEROIMG.zip and put it on my sdcard.

hboot finds it, loads it and then says "Main Version is older! Update Fail! Do you want to reboot device?"

what can I do now?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ddotpatel:
Have you checked to see if your goldcard has definitely worked?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] JW 301:
it definitively is a goldcard, as I used it to install generic ROM on T-Mob device... still doesn't work now... but the problem is not that I try to install a ROM that's not meant for my device (thats what I understood goldcard does), but the problem seems to bee the bootloader-version the 2.1 RUU brought.

what can I do now?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] BoogWeed:
Same thing happened t me a while back, I just re-tried every step from scratch and it worked the third time...! :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] JW 301:
what exactly did you do then? I tried so many things, at least I want to know, which steps to repeat over and over again :D

I have a hypothetical question, and while I'm sure someone has surely thought of it before, I can't seem to ask google the right way to find it.

A long time ago, when we were still using those screaming demons called modems, it was believed that the only way to increase your connection speed was to use multiple modems, each with a cat5 port in the computer. It was called stacking, or something like that.

After massively enjoying the process of rooting my Evo, my first ever >free, non-metropcs phone, this got me to thinking. If I have two rooted android phones, can I somehow sync their tether, using a program on the pc to organize which phone downloads which parts of a webpage or file, essentially doubling my connection speed? It seems viable, very possible, leading me to believe that it can be done and is being done and I simply haven't found it yet. This is one of the places where I learned how to root, it's a very knowledgeable community, and I'm sure someone here will have an answer, so thanks in advance.

Hey Guys - sorry if this has been posted before, did some searching but haven't found anything on it. I've got a few high-res photos that I took on vacation. I was able to use them successfully as my wallpaper on my Baked Snacks 9.7 ROM and they looked great.

However, since upgrading to CM6, when I try to load them (iPhoto->SDCARD), they look soft (out of focus). Anyone else experiencing this, and anyone know how to fix/improve? I've noticed some of the stock photos look crisp, just not my own. Thanks in advance!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rickytenzer:
Hey all,

I'm moving out soon and I need to start learning how to budget properly. What budgeting apps are the best for Android? I've seen a few like Mint and Budget Droid, but they both seem to have a lot of complaints.

Thanks for the help!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] musashiken:
You can try this app called "loot". But all in all it's up to you decide which best suits you.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jrard44:
What are the complaints about Mint? Security? Something else?

Mint is really about the web app. I mean, the Android App is nice, and I use it fairly regularly, but if you are going to use Mint as a budgeting tool, then you are most likely going to need to use it via a desktop browser.

That being said, I love it. Couldn't live without it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rickytenzer:
I've set it up but I noticed that I can only see the budget per category but not change it from Android. So if I understand correctly, budgets need to be set on a desktop and then purchases and what-not can be edited on the go?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jrard44:
Yeah, so if you are going to be using the budgeting aspect of Mint, you will need to use the "desktop" webapp. You can then view your budget and how well you are within it via the webapp.

So I normally don't use cash very much these days, so I let Mint handle all my purchases automatically. I never input an individual purchase. Mint will automatically pick up my debit/credit card transactions. It normally categorizes them correctly, but sometimes you need to go in and set the category manually (you can do this via the Android App).

So I mainly use the Android app for just categorizing purchases, and checking to see where I am at in terms of budget/accounts and such. I like the way Mint handles most stuff for me automatically.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rickytenzer:
Meh, I'd rather handle it manually and not have to rely on a desktop connection. Any other suggestions?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jrard44:
Well, I tried BudgetDroid for a bit, but I didn't like it because it was too manual for me. But if manual is what you want, maybe it will work for you. I can't really say much about it though, because I seriously used it for about a week then uninstalled. I think there is another app called Cashew that I have heard about, but never tried it. I believe it is similar to BudgetDroid.

Good luck.

Shameless plug :P

I just posted my app on the marketplace last night: KBudget

I wrote it because I didn't like what was available on Android.. it's still a work in progress, so it's BETA, and I'm still slowly adding more features to it. Mind you, mine focuses on your expenses, as opposed to keeping track of your account balances.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
Seriously. Mint. Just forget budgeting manually on your phone. I did it for my iPod Touch for a while and then it just becomes retarded. Then what? If you go one day without your phone, you're screwed. Feel lazy? Feel plastered? Screwed. That's why Mint is there. It handles everything. If you don't use cash or rarely do, it's more than ok. I have a cash budget on Mint too because it tracks ATM transactions. I just make sure thats on track and I'm ok.

BudgetDroid is good though. I've tried it, but honestly, I'd rather have something automatically done. Am I going to be worrying about taking a girl out to dinner, and then dave & busters and then a dessert place and having to put down every damn transaction? I'd rather enjoy my time.

Anyway, that's my 2 cents. I love Mint, and even though the Android app is not on par with the iPhone version, I'll just wait to track my finances in detail at home in front of my computer.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] 24bronco:
Agreed! I use Mint all the time and it suits my needs just fine, Especially for budgeting. you get alerts if your getting close to your budget or if you have fees and Mint recommends other ways to save money..:D

Do not flash on your Galaxy S (i9000) with this i9008 one. I almost bricked my phone trying to do that. I posted my experience in another thread. i9008 I understand is a model that is available in China market.

I'm having issue synchronizing my Xperia X1 with my PC using ActiveSync or WMDC.

Powering my battery works but sync doesn't. I tried 2 other USB cables and same problem occur.

I tried different PC but still I have same problem. I event went back to original Stock and this doesn't helps also.

Should I send my device for fix? I have warranty? I can reverse to original Stock and put back original boot loader.

Hopefully they will fix it but if they don't I cannot add custom ROM any more :(
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Black'd:
You can go and get a card reader to have your sd mini read in the pc, I got mine with 5 EUR and it also supports several type of cards. Also keep in mind that read/write speed is faster with a card reader than plugging your device in Disk Drive mode and this can be convenient sometimes ;)

Good luck with the repair. If you revert to stock SPL and to stock rom and if your time of warranty is not up then you should have no problems, although in my country the service center sucks, they try to make you pay as much as possible...

2) I already have a 828x rom installed. is that compatible with the old rom?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Draken Korin:
hm, OT post :)

1) radio selection, don't forget to install a matching rilphone.dll

2) afaik those two (meaning radio rom and normal rom) are not related like that, radios should work in all versions on all roms

it might be, that you suffer less functionality/signal strength when using an older radio version, but that is regionally different and cannot be generalized

hope you find your ideal combo :)

Google shows a colored overlay of traffic congestion so you can see where the slow downs are at... I don't know if it will "automatically" reroute you... I don't know that I would want it to make that decision for me. But it is easy to choose alternate routes

More points I like:

When you arrive at your destination it flips to street view so you can see what the destination looks like

When navigating you can choose alternate route and it shows you multiple highlighted optional routes with the different mileage and eta times
