[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] scialy:
Hi to everybody,

i just bought x10mini pro (my first android phone) and trying to install hebrew fonts, following the quoted procedure i get a message where it's said that no results have been found in android market for israelpack...

and i don't know how it works to push the fonts

anyone can help me please?

thanks
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tomereitan:
assuming that you already rooted your phone

1. Google for "android israel pack" , use the first link on Google: "israelpack - Project Hosting on Google Code"

2.use the direct download link

3.copy the IsraelPack_latest.apk file to your SD card.

4.use the application installer (on your phone) to install the pack.

5.on the pack download the Hebrew fonts.

6.restart the phone.

that's it...

worked on my phone, x10mini.

URGENT. Installed israelpack - everything in Chinese now

Rooted Motorola DEFY (2.1) and installed israel pack as described. Selected only the fonts option. After reboot, everything is in Chinese fonts. How do I get out of this? I tried to uninstall israelpack but the buttons have text in Chinese so I do not know what to click on.

Need help badly!

Thanks

Update

Update: somehow, after rooting the phone and installing israelpack, I got some malware into the phone - everything was displayed in Chinese and ads for new cars were shown at the bottom.

In my attempts to restore defaults, I also unplugged the battery and ... the lovely English fonts came back!! And when I go to a website with Hebrew text, the text is displayed correctly.

All in order now but I wish I knew what malware was installed and how to get rid of it FOR GOOD.

My hero is stuck on the HTC (white screen) reboot, it keeps looping every 15mins or so, until the battery dies.

I tried to go into FastBoot (which keeps flashing, the screen turns on and off), but I can get it to go into fastboot USB if I hold down the "search" button (and the screen stabilizes too)

I flashed the stock rom, but that doesn't help. I even tried to clear all the data by doing, home + back key.

Did I truly brick the phone? I even swapped memory cards to see if it would help, but no luck there.

Any help would be GREATLY apperciated.

Thank you!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordanjackthomas:
I'm still pretty new to the rooting and flashing stuff (I've had my Hero for less than a week) but I ran into the same problem and was able to get out of it. If you have an external card reader that you can use, it would help greatly, because that's how I was able to add data to the SD card without having to access the phone. Turn your phone off and remove the SD card. Plug it into your reader, then into your PC, and add a custom ROM directly to the root of the card (i.e. - NOT inside a folder) like Fresh 2.3.3 or anything else you want to use (I used Fresh because I couldn't get CM6 to load). Put the card back into the phone and boot it into recovery mode (hold the HOME button whole powering it on). You should be able to access the ROM and flash it from there, just be sure to wipe first and backup at some point. Hope this helps!!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumleaf:
Did you completely wipe the phone (data and dalvik) before flashing a new ROM? If you didn't wipe the top 3 options (data, dalvik, ext3) before flashing a ROM, this may be what's causing your bootloop.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derekwilkinson:
Bricking the Hero is very very very hard. Unless you flashed a GSM radio, you're pretty much safe :)

Go back into recovery, wipe EVERYTHING (except SD), flash original ROM, it should work.

Where is your dalvik cache btw?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Big-O-Devil:
do the stock ruu and you should be

fine...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
@jordanjackthomas

I tried to do what you said, I extracted the zip file and placed its contents in the root of the SD card, but when I tried to boot up into recovery mode, It was still stuck on the HTC screen.

@chromiumleaf

I don't think I have, but how would I be able to fix that issue if I didn't?

@derekwilkinson

Luckily, I have a copy of my SD card, So I still have it, if it would be any use?

@Big-O-Devil

I have been flashing the stock RUU for days now, and its still stuck on the same issue, (i just did it now, just to be sure, again) and will leave the phone on, till it dies basically. that way I know that I know I waited for it to boot...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungSinema:
Don't extract the zip file. Just copy it to the root of your SD card. Hold down the home key + the power key to boot into recovery. If that doesn't work, try to using the volume DOWN button + the power key. Then press home when the screen loads up. I'm sure you know this, I'm just making sure you didn't forget anything.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
Okay before, when I extracted the zip there was a boot.img file in there, but now i'll download

http://link.geekfor.me/freshhero233

and saved that link, and placed that into my SD Card. [will update this as soon as its done]
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungSinema:
Great! Keep us posted

When you connect your phone to your computer does your computer make some kind of connecting. Noise.?.?.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
It's been about 1hr, and its just been on the reboot loop. I don't think it helped :/

Here is the some of the information thats on the "volume down" screen:

(HBOOT SCREEN)

HERC XC SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-1.47

..

Radio 2.42.01.04.27

@Big-O-Devil

And yes it does, I can see the device in ADB list of devices, but it is "offline"...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derekwilkinson:
I'm gonna have to agree with Big-O-Devil here, stop trying to do it through recovery and just use the RUU from HTC/Sprint
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
@derekwilkinson

I have been doing that, I've tried to use the HTC/Sprint RUU and its still the same. I've been flashing the .5 RUU and .6 RUU, but none of which have helped. They are all still stuck in the reboot loop.

Is my hboot version correct?

My device does this when I boot into hboot..

"It also does a SD card check when it boots up onto this screen, says something like

herodiag.zip

etc etc"
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Big-O-Devil:
Ok so flashing doesn't. Work... look for the stock ruu program that restores your phone back to the its original 2.1.. it's a program that does everything for you... if it works you are going to have to reroot again and start from the beginning.. let me know......

pm me i will give the file to you.....
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungSinema:
Yes, I too suggest that you re-root.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumleaf:
From your recovery menu (holding Home then pressing Power to turn the phone on) there is an option called "Wipe". Select that one, then there are 5 options within that. Do the top 3 of them (data, dalvik, ext3). After that, push your Back button which brings you to the main recovery menu. Then select Flash zip from sd card and go through the process of flashing whatever ROM.zip you have on the root of your SD (the whole .zip itself, don't extract all the files out).

If that still doesn't cure your bootloop problems, then you need to download the stock RUU (you can find it at this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6686401&postcount=2). This RUU is NOT the same as nfinitefx45's STOCK ROM! You have to run this RUU through HTCSync on your PC. But try the wiping that I recommended above first....then do this RUU if that doesn't work. Know that running the RUU will remove your root access, so you will have to re-root again after it's done.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Big-O-Devil:
+1.. that should do the trick for you... good luck....
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
I apologize, I wasn't using the correct terms.

I don't currently have the phone rooted, I have used the Sprint/HTC RUU_Hero_C_Sprint_2.27.651.5_R_signed_release(2)

file to "reset"(if you want to call it that) back to stock mode...but that doesn't do anything, it still is stuck in a reboot loop.

So currently, I dont have any options other than the default when I press "home" on the phone while turning it on. It just automatically clears the data when I do that.

@Big-O-Devil - I have used that file in that post before, and It doesn't help the situation. It is also stuck in a reboot loop.

@YoungSinema - If the file is different from the STOCK RUU, the "exe" that runs...then I would love to try that out. I went ahead and sent you the pm just incase.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumleaf:
Try running the RUU again via HTC Sync on your PC while your phone is turned on and during the bootlooping.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
How would I do that, since HTC Sync actually never connects to the phone while the phone is turned on and during the boot loop?

How can i run the RUU via HTC Sync?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumleaf:
Place that RUU.exe file on your desktop and double click it with the phone turned on and plugged into USB. Does it not ever get to the point where it starts wiping files then installing stuff to the phone?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
Yeah, I've been able to get it to completely finish the whole process. It even says, the installation has succeeded...which is the weird part!

But when it tries to boot up, its still a no go.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumleaf:
Hmmm, weird. Are you sure you're using:

THIS official version: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=681697

and NOT this leaked version: XXXX http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=681697 XXXX

They might very well be the same (I really don't know if they are or not), but that leaked version was not an official Sprint/HTC release, so make sure you try it with the OFFICIAL RUU (first link I gave) if you haven't already.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
Doesn't that require for my device to be rooted? I currently don't have my device rooted.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumleaf:
Yeah, you couldn't flash that leaked .zip without being rooted. DOH! :confused: Sorry
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
Anyone have any other ideas?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denstark:
Well, since your device isn't rooted you could always take it back to sprint, considering the warranty isn't void ;)

Other than that, I have no ideas =/
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
I have an update: I got the device to boot up in SAFE MODE.

I was hoping to see if you guys can lead me in the right direction now? What should my next move be? Please be detailed about it.

Thank you!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hatchguy06:
I have a phone that is doing the same thing exactly. may i ask what you were doing before it started doing this and what rom you were running. ive been working on this phone for a couple days.. i can boot into fastboot so i think there is a chance here..
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cricketman24:
I was able to fix my phone, here is what I did:

I did a hard reset using, MENU + SEARCH + POWER BUTTON and after pressed menu to restart the device.

I continued to HOLD the MENU button, in order to try to get into SAFE MODE. Which I was successful in doing.

From there I rooted my phone, (although I didn't see teh superuser app, but if you still continue with the step that says, type "su", you will get that permission request)

Then after I rooted my phone, i went into recovery mode, and just flashed the official hero.img from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=681697

and my phone is now succesfully booting up without freezing at the screen.

If anyone needs any help with the same issue, don't hesitate to contact me!

and thank you so much to everyone else for helping me out! you guys are awesome, hopefully I'll be able to help someone else

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bagofsnakes:
Considering upgrading my x2i to an x10a and i got a couple questions. What does branding do to the phone? Does it impose some sort of limitations? What are the advantages to debranding? Is it the same as rooting?

Much appreciated
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhoustanley:
from my elementary understanding, a unbranded phone can use f/w updates from any carrier (eg. rogers most recent is 020, however unbranded can be upgraded to 026).

Rooting a phone simply gives the owner superuser privileges, meaning that one can have ultimate control of the phone....generally people root so they can install specific apps that do not work on unrooted phones (eg. titanium backup, barnacle tether, always flash, setcpu, adfree...etc etc)

so to answer your question, root is not the same as branding, HOWEVER, there are ways to unbrand and root and upgrade in one go

Motorola Europe : We're pleased to announce that Milestone will receive a free upgrade to Android 2.2

(FroYo) in Europe with an initial roll-out

beginning at the end of this year. For

other software updates please check our software update site:

https://supportforums.motorola.com/community/manager/softwareupgrades

this is ridiculous. why SO LATE? droid 2 already has froyo. droid 1 already has froyo. what. what happend to the milestone? the rest of the world is waiting for its update..

motorola is such a garbage company i swear, after under a year, flagship products lose most of its software support (as it they don't care much about updating outdated phones...)

worst of all they lock down the bootloader so you can't even upgrade via roms..

disgusting.

but i am surprised they are having an update. i really was doubting one to come.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
what do you expect? Motorola rides on its success in the US. Nothing more. The fact that it is an American company allows it to suck on Verizon left tit and get millions of ads for them.

The reason Motorola stayed afloat for the past few years was carriers were dumb enough to roll out RaZr after razr for 3 years straight while the rest of the world went on to nice featurephones and smartphones. When they got caught with their pants down, they relied on Verizon to bail them out with the DROID.

Other than the Milestone, Moto sells crap worldwide. Who really buys the Backflip and stuff? You can keep making CDMA phones, but 80 million people is a small market Motorola. Ignore the billions outside wanting a good GSM device, and you just shot yourself in the foot.

Meanwhile, as much as we hate on Apple, at least gambling on AT&T allowed it to go worldwide with GSM phones. Dumb Motorola is dumb.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Freakernoid:
So true, so short sighted of Motorola, I have to said milestone has to be my very last moto phone. Sometime you just have to learn thing the hard way. Seeing our counterpart droid having all the fun with custom rom and rapid update of android os. If this goes on i doubt even android can save them from disappear from the mobile scene again.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] appelflap:
I think :) that my original firmware contained a widget to create a playlist for the TouchWiz Musicplayer. In newer firmwares I can't find this widget. So I wonder a) did such a widget really existed ? (My memories might be colored) and if so, b) can someone extract the widget from the system/app directory? (or tell me the firmware you have and I will try to get it myself)

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
I have the stock original running on my Galaxy S and there's nothing showing in either the Samsung or Android Widget sections.

Having said that I have seen the widget you are referring to.

I'll have a dig around later.....

Found it.... Pure Music Widget.

Read it here

There may be a problem... see post 324 on that link.

Well that's so weird. I definitely thought that I could create shortcuts to playlists on my desktop with my original firmware. Maybe from the musicplayer itself? Or maybe it is just some retrospective wishfull thinking (is that possible? :D )
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android.vibrant:
How do I exclude folder on the stock Vibrant's music player?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CappyQ:
I believe you can put a period at the beginning of a folder to hide it from being indexed from the Gallery or Music applications. (So a folder called ".Music" would be hidden.)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XfooYen:
This is true. I tried this when I wanted to hide my custom ringtones from the music player, but when I did it hides the folder from the entire system. The result was I could no longer choose (see) custom ringtones from the system settings. I wonder if there's a way to hide files/folders from the media player while still keeping them available to the system sounds settings. On my mt3g, the media player ignores files in the directory sdcard/media/ringtones. On the Vibrant, the player shows all media files no matter where they are placed. Anyone?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
I got around it by renaming my ringtones from .mp3 to .mid, seems the music player ignores .mid files.

But since the stock music player doesn't have a homescreen widget, i went ahead and bought MixZing, which lets you select what folders to play music from.

This is In the tips and tricks sticky at the top...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XfooYen:
Thanks. I'll try that if I repurchase the Vibrant after Samsung fixes the GPS/Compass.

...and the .nomedia file it recommends placing does the same thing as putting a period in front of the folder title, thus hiding its contents from the system settings.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:
There's so many different themes and such out there that do different things, but generally are "too much" for what I'm looking for. What I'd like to find is something that could/would change everything in the evo to white text on black background. I don't need fonts or icons or anything else changed the way it looks. The skills that I'm guessing that would be required to do this I'm positive are way beyond anything I'm capable of.

Menus, settings, mms and google voice would be a huge plus too. I know the mms one has been done and I already have that. I'm assuming that it could be quite a project to go through just about everything and change them from a "flashlight" theme to something easier on the eyes in the dark.

I bought the weather and toggle widget and found the flip clock version that is the opposite of stock and it looks good but is a little heavy sometimes on the resources. If my memory serves me still, I remember the old school flip clocks being more light numerals and dark or colored background.

For those persons that enjoy doing this sort of thing, perhaps you might consider this project. I don't know how many other people out there like what I'm describing. If there were quite a few, maybe that would be an incentive? I know money talks, so I will say ahead of time, I could only say to you "thank you for your hard work and skills." :(

P.S.

I sent google a request for adding the choice of light or dark theme (and attachments) to google voice, but going by what other people have said, it is most likely falling on deaf ears.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
This idea has tutorial project written all over it.

I imagine a more or less monochrome UI with most just solid blacks and not much in the way of gradients, very plain and basic.

I think it would be cool, I really like simplicity/minimalism.

What I mean by the tutorial comment is: For ANYONE even half way interested in learning how to theme and mod this would be a great place to start, for the following reasons..

- Most of the mods would be super easy, there is a wide variety of difficulty levels in theming and the easiest of them will be SIMPLE for anyone who has basic computer skills

- Learning to theme (if you enjoy this stuff) is fun because you build on what you know. It''s almost like a video game in that you do/learn things in levels. There is a dossier (guides, wiki's, google, other forum members, etc.) where you learn what you need to know before you begin the next level (achieving the mod you want to do). You fight through the pawns (editing images, xml's, smali's, etc) to get to the boss (flashing, morphing, testing your mod) and when you defeat the boss you have a sense of accomplishment that is almost immediately replaced with the next level :D

- The sheer simplicity of this themet lends it to being a community project

For anyone who wants to spend more "quality" time with this hobby and learn more about the platform I think this theme is a great opportunity :D

*edit- People collaborate a lot on this site and others but I've never personally seen a collaborative theme project. I wonder what the best way would be to (if anyone is interested in it) house everything in an open repository..
