You should be able to ope nterminal and do "install \sdcard\my_app.apk"
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Hypercore:
I've checked everywhere but I've gotten mixed replys. Some say it's possible, others say it's on the way, and others say it's impossible.

So, what's the deal? Can we flash the Xperia X10 to the Android 2.1 system yet?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] swapniladsure:
No Not yet..
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] blaze16:
Nope. Not possible yet. Not until the bootloader is hacked.

Not to discredit our wonderful developers, but I have a feeling that SE will release the 2.1 update before the hack. But hopefully I'm wrong, and then we can start thinking of going straight to 2.2 ;)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] arun879:
Can i update andoid 2.1 to rooted Xperia x10 with R2BA026

Can anyone help me,

I have rooted my Xperia X10 with Build number R2BA026.

Can i update to Android 2.1, bcoz i get the update notification.

Will i be able to instal apps other than Market apps after updating to 2.1.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] PollPixx:
Eventhough this question is answered countless of times here we go:D:

Yes you can update.

If you have the message on your phone you have to update through a computer. I think that message also appeared on your phone.

If your phone says with 1.6 you already have the latest software, you can change to Nordic (search this forum how to) and update than through SEUS, works perfectly well.

You can install apps of course with 2.1 but some people get the first time download errors. Solution: Delete the Market update in Settings/Applications/Application settings(??...i don't know the english word for "beheren"/Market and than tap Delete/Remove Updates.

There you go...
[Captivate General] arababay:
Has anyone found a way to connect their captivate or other android devices to their car through the usb port. I tried all the usb modes, including debugging. I thought mass storage would work, since it can index other mass storage devices, but all I get are error messages. I could just connect it trough the 3.5 aux cord but it doesn't sound is good (limited to stereo) and cant control it trough steering wheel.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Mass storage mode requires a second step to manually mount the drives. If you don't do that, the drives won't be found.

You can also use Media Player mode (which doesn't require manually mount the drives). But this mode is very buggy in stock firmware. I often have to reboot the phone after use it.

The reason you have to mount/unmount the drive is to allow media scanning to run everytime the drives unmounted. The built-in Music and Video player has no other way to refresh its media library.
[Captivate General] YellowGTO:
Yeah i'm having trouble with the USB port also. I use the AUX in for the TV screen in the truck and plug in my phone that way, it sounds much better then the 3.5mm jack.
[HTC Aria General] Furies:
Hey all I was wondering if there was an easy way to update a ROM if you already have the previous version installed. I updated from A010 to A011 the old fashion way: save texts, apps, and contacts on the SD card and did a clean install of the ROM.

Would changing the zip name to update.zip then executing clockwork do it? Just a hunch
[HTC Aria General] DKuntz2:
I think that if it's just an update like from a010 to a011 you can just tell clockwork to make the update without a factory reset (at least it works going from rooted default rom to the liberated rom).

What I mean is just go to clockwork and choose install from zip, and find your zip. I have no experience with how update.zip works.
[HTC Aria General] bfinch:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b_allert:
ive seemed to have fixed it. i wiped phone like 10 times. reformatted sd card, installed the rom called virus. it went to bootloop. so i let it do its thing. when i woke up today, it was perfect!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v_lestat:
thats not working perfect, thats called one f'd up phone.

sounds like a bad memory card and you can wipe and format all day long, the card is still bad.

are you using a different card than the one that came with the phone?

if so put the original back

if not, go get a different card.

if the original is bad take it to the sprnt store and see if they can replace it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b_allert:
haha thanks. its been 8+ hours i havent had a problem using,saving,loading,calling. idk man, still think i should go take it back??

I've tried all the Froyo roms and they seem to bog my phone down..makes it super slow with only one widget(weatherbug elite) and only 12 apps on my home screen.

I'm gonna do some looking and see if I can get a Froyo rom to do right..So all I need is a Fat32?? Do they install to my sd card or....

I'm running the CannonRom now and have over 40 apps installed and only have 22M/89M used but with the Froyo roms, I have over 30M used even before my app installs.

IDK..Thanks tho.,
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kanishkapd:
hi guys,

i am a winmob user and never used an android device. also i m much clueless about all the hifi technical stuff.

there is a very important application called "uptodate" that i use on my omnia2. ( pls see this link, https://www.uptodate.com/home/about/index.html )

my queries are, can this application be installed and used on a android device?

and what are the advantages of android over winmob? / can the same stuff i do on winmob be done on android too?

sorry for my ignorance, but, i work in a different field and never had to come across these before.

pls help me out here.

thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pakure:
sorry doc, but uptodate only works on windows/ palm os, not on android..

but then you can browse the online version using your password...on any phone with an internet connection..........but cant run it from the SD card like in windows mobile.

you can run epocrates (better version than win mo), and all the skyscape handheld software on android..............

but i think, windows mobile is the best for docs like us, who want to run uptodate from sd card
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kanishkapd:
thanks. that was very helpful. guess i would stick with my omnia2 and winmob.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] yooeee:
Well the android web one is nice. Just need an internet connection. If you have reception it makes no difference. If not you're such ruth the archaic wm. I used winmo for several years. It's time to move on.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jonny_ringo_wvu:
Could winmo be emulated on android to run any of these old medical programs?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gusion:
Uptodate in next version 19.2, will include SUPPORT for android and iphone 4.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pirecrompir:
??? :confused:

who told you that??? i wrote uptodate 2 times already and asked about android support and they told me they had no plans for android support but that iphone support was on the way... this is the main reason i'm still sticking with winmo ;)...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kanishkapd:
hello again,

coming back to the thread after a while.:)

i ve heard that people at utd are planning to make it only accessible online. because most of us are using the cracked versions and obviously they dont make any profit :)

and guess if they do that its going to be very hard to access without subscription. (which is rather expensive)

any news on that guys?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pirecrompir:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kanishkapd:
thaks

thanks

that was reallly helpful. but no support for wp7 i guess. also this online access needs subscription of several hundred usd per year, am i correct? (unless there is a way to use it without subscription) and what exactly is offline support? does it mean being able to store in the sd card and use, like with the old wm devices?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pirecrompir:
for online access you need the subscription (or have someone give you his/her login info ;)), of course.

i think (and hope) that offline access means the old wm and palmos way of installing it to the sd card, yes. the new, 19.2 version just came out and sadly there is no support for wm and palm anymore, so no offline version for mobile devices :(... i didn't yet see the dvd itself but according to the above quotes, there will be no offline version until the transition from wm/palm to iphone/android is finished.

cheers
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kanishkapd:
thanks

i contacted utd customer care. according to them they are working on iphone and android support. (no mention about wm, wp7 or palm. wp7 support would come after a while a guess) probably an iphone offline application as well. and they are going to be online only, in the future. so there wouldnt be any desktop versions. guess i m stuck with 19.1 from now on. i ve seen some guys using the online utd without getting subscribed on their android phones. still dont know how.

cheers
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pirecrompir:
there was a method of how to do this from a pc (which should also work on an android phone probably) including a proxy server and an institution which has a subscription described on a forum site www.drfouly.com, but the site has been down for some weeks now, and i don't remember the exact procedure, so no luck. if there is an offline version for android in the future i will probably switch to android; for now i'm sticking with wm and utd 19.1 ;)... luckily the institution where i work has unlimited online access to utd from all the computers in the hospital :)...

cheers
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kanishkapd:
i d shift to android too i guess. though i would have preferred wp7. too bad we dont have that type of hospitals in my country.

thanks for the comments. cheers.

Mail send me from UPTODATE in May 2011.

We will no longer provide updates for Windows Mobile as of version 19.2, which is released in July 2011.

We made this difficult decision based on limited usage of Windows Mobile devices and on our need to focus on more widely used devices such as iPhone, iPad and Android. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause.

UpToDate is currently working on a downloadable version for the iPhone. We are hoping to launch this version sometime this year. UpToDate is also working on a downloadable version for the Android with no projected availability date at this time.

While we do not currently have a downloadable version of UpToDate to load directly on your iPhone, we have found that the program performs very well either through Wi-Fi or your 3G network, and you will receive the most updated content by going directly to our website.

Helpful hint: When you go to the UpToDate login page through your browser, click on the + sign at the bottom of your iPhone, then click on “Add to Home Screen”. This will put the UpToDate logo on your home screen so you can get the online application with one touch on future visits.

hi thanks for the news.

so they are planning to release a downloadable version for android too.

guess i d stick to utd 19.1 and winmob till that is available and then shift

to android.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aminima:
forget the winmo! uptodate is available for any OS, including Android, and even Symbian. I don't know how they did the trick, but I'm using uptodate 19.3 on my Android 2.3.7. I'm a copyright man, but as we cannot buy uptodate in Iran, we have to reach illegal ways :(

I know a filesharing link that you can download the whole uptodate 19.3 but I cannot insert the link here in this forum, due to copyright issues. so tell me how I can help you...

to run it, you should just address your web browser (any) to a file in the uptodate folder. in Dolphin or Opera, I type file:///PATH-TO-UPTODATE/

thx very much. works well:D:D downliading pc version now.

u did great service. pls update as u get more news.

unfortunately, the uploader site has deleted the files, and the folders are empty :( almost 3 GB of data has been deleted!

damn..pls let us know when you get some news.:(

hey...no its still available..i just tried. check again.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wicked_roller:
Just wanted to let peolpe know there is now available since this week uptodate app for android devices but it´s only available for US territory.

Can anyone post the apk for the rest of humanity. I don't want to root my phone cause it takes a a whole afternoon.

Hi,

Thanks for the info. Hope someone wud do that. But still u have to get the subscription,

Right? Unless someone cud hack it pretty soon.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] holdup:
just pay for the app!! its so worth it...ive got it on android n love it...btw its defn available outside US (usin it in australia)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kanishkapd:
thanks very much. could you pls give some more info pls.

how much is it? and once you pay for it is the whole data base accessible?

thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] holdup:
i got it as a trainee subscription, including the mobile app it costs about $450 for a 2 yr subscription. There is no offline access for desktop PCs, but the entire database is accessible on the mobile app (which also works on tablets btw). Also the entire database is accessible for a 2 yr subscription. The app is about 1.5gb for downloading the mobile version on android (including the graphics and text) and about 350mb for text only
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kanishkapd:
thanks very much. i m definitely sure its worth that amount.

too bad in my country its a lot of money. have to look for other alternatiives.

thanks anyway.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] holdup:
thats fair enough, if you don't want uptodate you could try other apps like medscape....I'd say it's pretty comprehensive (not as much as uptodate but good enough for daily clinical use) and also offers offline access. Other apps like epocrates, skyscape and micromedex are OK if you want basic info
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 3agle:
No matter what ROM and Android builds i run, i always run into the SOD at some point. Can someone give me a stable, radio, ROM, and android combo that gets rid of the SOD and the other glitches in Android. Thank You,
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] FriedSushi87:
Upgrade radio to 2.12.50.02.2, use the chuckyDROIDrom and then use BUILD 1.3 (1GB) of shubCRAFT and haven't I experienced a SOD yet!!!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tgtoys:
Sure buddy, just fast forward like a few weeks or months into the future and try any one of them out, they should all be good by then.

Point is, this is still a beta project. Some people rarely have issues, some more often then not. Yes the combo android/rom/radio plays a major factor, but individual usage, sd card type and other unique factors play a part as well. You can switch radios, but one that works great for me may result in bad signal for your area, the build I use might be better the way I use it but might not work as well for what you do on your phone. you might not get SOD but then the wifi won't work or within like that, ya know? Just use what works best for you and wait for a true release, no one said anything is flawless yet.

To try and help, I use:

Rom: chucky lite

Radio: 12.50.02.2

Android: mattc froyo 1.5

I get the occasional SOD and screen freeze but not often enough to really bother me.

A couple new builds just hit the forum today, try those out maybe you'll have more luck.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] songokussm:
i would also add to zero your sdcard. one if my Cheapo sdcards ebay $15 bucks 16gb, kept having SOD issues until i destroyed all of the data on it. I used active kill disk (do a search theres a thread on it). Solved the problem

my setup (sig needs to be changed)

Rom 2.12.50.02_2

Miri's WM6.5.x XtraLight x17.6

setup 2 (gfs)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fuzzysig:
so after about a week of fooking around with winmo i almost put it back up for sale on craigslist to send it back where it came from.

could not deal with this sht anymore( freezing,overheating, battery drain in standby, sms lagging, alarm not working and tonns more annoying issues)

2 different roms( i wanted to keep stock look and features, since most of cooked roms come with their own theme)

flashed chunky rom (lite version) with 12.50 radio havent tested it alone

then loaded up FroyoStone Series - Version 1 (07-Aug-2010) android rom

loaded jmz android dual boot app.

and so far it feels like im using a totally different phone.

one thing i regret is not doing it earlier.

everything seems to be working great,i definitely am able to use this phone more than i ever did with windows loaded on it.

loaded bunch of apps to see and they all work with no problems. even when an app gives an error it is eliminated with quickness.

everything is fast

android market is ridiculous packed with all kinds of sht(how fast it filled up with apps is insane)

alot of free ones to choose from:)

oh and almost forgot, the apps work without crashing the system.

i ve been on this phone for last 2 hours trying to figure out the android interface and its not even warm to touch as opposed to windows even in standby its very hot.

very sad that even in its early stage its much more usable than original OS

is there a WINMO HATER thread on xda btw?

beeing a new android user there are few things i have question about.

1 is there an X button to shut down apps like windows?

because most of the apps dont even have X button in app menu.

2 why does it try to crop the wallpaper even when its exact size to fit the screen?

3 Green LED blinks, THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE. This is a diagnostic feature to see if the phone has crashed or not.

mine is not on( it was on for a while) but its still functioning, is it supposed to blink when crashed or when working normally?

4 images in general seem to be reendered with much less quality than on windows boot.

theres also an option to install it with sense, is sense responsible for processing those highrez images or is it winmo?

5 i installed the SD card auto mount app. os that good or bad app to have?

would that interfere with anything?

i can sell the HD2 to you if u like. so you can have a backup...

HATER:) still defending the crippled OS abandoned by microsoft.

if it wasnt for XDA and few other forums winmo would fall on its face long time ago.

microsoft should thank you guys for keeping their name in mobile business, because without tweakers there would be no one to use it.

galaxy screen is smaller btw and its a samsung and it doesnt have flash and its piano finish and it resembles iphone

i would go for amoled screen tho that thing is super crispy...

see now i forgot what i was gonna ask because of you.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Psygnosis84:
There's nothing crippled about winmo, only the lack of intelligence by the user to actually use it properly.
