[Hero CDMA General] saltyclams:
Awesome... the community here is absolutely incredible. Although I am literally tryin my best to read the ****in manual, I continue to fear that im reading something too old or outdated, or that there is something newer (easier) that I should be doing instead. I did the rooting with the 1click which was so simple... I cant believe I even spent that much time on it.

Thinking next the nandroid/recovery image thing would be a breeze, but it appears to almost be the hardest step. I see on most posts that they always tend to mention Nandroid for backups - is there a particular reason that I should use that one? Some other ones appear to be easier, but not as interesting or fun. However, im fearfully coming across a lack of exact guides that explain the process.

I truly think that once I can get the recovery image done, and I can start trying out other ROMs and such... this will become too much fun. But again, im getting so mixed up by should i do this, that, or maybe this... or wait, is that too old of information?

Regardless, thanks for all the help!
[Hero CDMA General] Jim M:
Download ROM Manager from the Market. From ROM Manager you can flash ClockworkMod recovery or Flash Alternate Recovery (I prefer this option RA Recovery) there is a newer relase but this works fine.

You can then reboot and go into recovery, back up your system as it is right now, that way you can always go back to the basic root version that you have right now. That my friend is a Nandriod back up. now you can install a ROM of your choice, once it is installed and functioning the way you like make a Nandriod back up of it, that way you always have a good platform to start from if anything isn't playing nice.
[Hero CDMA General] Mac11700:
I know exactly what you mean. I've rooted my Hero the day the universal 1 click came out,but as yet have been reading everything I can on which new Rom to install first.

I went out and bought a new 16 gig sd card for more storage as well. I've been trying to read up on how and what is the best way to do all of the various partitions on it cause some say to just have a ext 2 partition,and others say have a ext3/4 partitions on it.Unfortunately I haven't found a easy way to make this happen except by using the FroydVillain 1.4.3 rom and I don't know if it will work with a cdma Sprint Hero or not yet.

I love the phone,and want to upgrade it to the best stable over clocked rom that will allow me to use it for everyday usage,but it doesn't look like it is going to easy as rooting the damn thing was. Seems to me that you need to be a programmer in Linux to make it work the best :(

I hate posting a bunch of neewb questions about it but I guess I will

Mac
[Hero CDMA General] saltyclams:
Awesome! Okay perfect... it worked perfect! I know have CyanogenMod running - yeah, it def different. Seems like it will take some time to get used too. Esp since its so far from SenseUI off the bat... err well, just the way that it handles things and such.

I will definitely give it a fair shot before I even try out some other ones... but I def want to try to use one of those Fresh Roms as well.

Thanks a ton for all the help! Most appreciated!
[General Questions and Answers] bigtexan99:
The app I'm looking for would have a 24 calendar.

I could tell the app my ringer preferences....

7am - 10pm - ringer

10pm - 1am - vibrate only

1am - 7am - silent

and it would apply them each day.

Anyone know of an app that would do this?
[General Questions and Answers] hefman:
There are many apps that can do this. They would be typically called "profile managers."

A couple that come to mind are PhoneAlarm and GProfile. PhoneAlarm is a paid app and is EXTREMELY powerful. It can also change several other OS settings, based on time, location, or calendar status, for example. There is a lite version of PhoneAlarm that might be more suited to what you want. GProfile is much simpler (and cheaper) and should do what you want, but I have heard of some battery issues with it though... YMMV.

Always nice to see new people building from source! Good job!

Trackball alert support please :D
[Nexus One Android Development] snlu178:
Ok, I tried out your rom. Multiple attempts to install.

I get - first off a choice of if I want to use the wizard or not, and that seems wrong.

Then I use the wizard once, it crashes to the beginning, I use it again and it FC's.

After that I cannot get on my network, I do a network search, find ATT and select it but never connect.

I have tried every way I can think of to make it connect to ATT but it will not.

Thanks for the attempt at the ROM, but I had to uninstall it.
[Nexus One Android Development] ardatdat:
Well, I have tried myself to wipe data (all) when installing the ROM and it is OK.

But most of the case, you do not need to wipe data. Just wipe cache + dalvik-cache, you should not be seeing the wizard.

BTW, can you PM me the logcat and which radio version you are using? Thanks.

**Update: I have just wipe data + cache + dalvik-cache and re-install the ROM -> can go through the wizard without any FC. For network problem, is that you do not type in a correct APN?
[Nexus One Android Development] noonerealy:
great rom thanks

we need more roms like this one, thanx and hope you keep up the work....

Where did you get icons from second pic?
[Nexus One Android Development] ardatdat:
thanks, icons are come from crystal project, more icons are still under modifications
[Nexus One Android Development] ardatdat:
I will release version 1.1 Beta within few hours later.

It would include:

- A more complete build.prop

- A more complete apns-conf.xml APN list

- A revised hosts file

- Default kernel changed to Wildmonk's 2.6.35_SVS-950mV_CFS_AXI_NoAB_No720p_1113MHz_081910.zip

I am thinking of whether to include a few ICON replacements for the stock browser, calculator, calendar, clock and messaging. Icons are from crystal project in which they are under GNU public license.

Any ideas?

[Nexus One Android Development] snlu178:
Apologies I did not log in till just now. I have installed InnovationOS so I don't have my log cat. However if you find it critical I can go through the install again and get it for you.

As far as APN. I have to admit not editing it. I did search for the network, it found ATT and I told it to select it. It would register but never get edge or 3G.

I do commend you. It's a great build idea. Check out Liquid Froyo on the droid. They are making slim lean and mean droid builds. I would love for that on my N1

Let me know if you want that log cat. It may take a day.
[Nexus One Android Development] ardatdat:
No worry, I am improving the APN list so that you will find a more complete APN list in the next build. Thanks for your support. :)
[Nexus One Android Development] ardatdat:
The new 1.1 Beta is released!

Please try it out! Especially those who have experienced setup wizard bug, this version should have fixed it :)

a little tip:

When building, you can use:

TARGET_NO_RADIOIMAGE=true make otapackage

It will automatically create an update zip with updater-script and sign it for you. Saves a TON of time :)

[Streak 5 General] twe69:
Can I get some quick help please. If the phone boots up with that message then is that standard for a retail unit? Thanks
[Streak 5 General] Troute:
Mine didn't, but mine came from O2 not direct from Dell.
[Streak 5 General] Amdathlonuk:
Mine doesn't and it's direct from Dell.
[Streak 5 General] twe69:
Ok, this one that I won on ebay but not paid for it yet. It says its from O2 and brand new in box with screen protector, but doesn't sound like retail?

The seller says: "what you seen online photos are promo converse i have not touched my unit

are original stickers and screen protector and when you start up the unit

it show dell confidential"

What do you think & what would you do?

Thanks
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
Must say have not read of anyone saying that before and i read everything on the net about the streak :)
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
hmm i've been reading a lot around this forum and a couple others and never heard of that.

I think its either 1 of 2 things. 1 is that it could be a custom bootscreen that someone made and put it on (very simple to do). or 2 is that is running some beta build of android. Sometimes manufacturers will put confidential or similar terms on prototypes and pre-release devices.

Go to settings-> about phone-> Software information and either post a screen shot of that page or type that info out here.
[Streak 5 General] twe69:
ok thanks for the info guys. I have not paid for the item just yet but I won the auction today. So basically do not have the item on me. Do you guys think its legit then as it's meant to be locked onto O2? Am guessing the firmware can be updated to the latest one but hoping the phone itself is same as retail? Will probably be paying through paypal so hopefully I have some security if things go wrong.
[Streak 5 General] skliarie:
The device is beta-quality.

Biggest drawback is that it lacks the "fastboot" option (which is mandatory for ROM upgrade).

This means the model can never be upgraded.
[Streak 5 General] krazman325:
What are you talking about? Where did you get your information? And why are you opening a year old thread?????

The Streak has fastboot. Most of the people on this forum have upgraded or changed their ROM. And this OLD thread was referring to the pre-release Streak of a year ago. The Streak of today is certainly not "beta-quality"!!!

Mods - This thread should be locked as it is outdated.
[Streak 5 General] chrisrotolo:
ive seen that image loc somewhere in framrwork-res/res/

Changing the Dell startup logo... not easily done as fone_fanatic suggested, bootanimation sure, but not the dell logo. My best guess is a beta/testing device. which ..should.. have fastboot I would imagine.

this guy could have some cool stuff on the there, send TheManii a system dump.

I would love 2 things.... how to customize dell logo on startup, not boot animation, logo, probably mroe involved than its worth, I think its encrypted. And fina a list of all the fastboot dialer codes.. they have to be hidden deep in the system, otherwise how would the device recognize them. Its all low level bootloader stuff, though, a bit beyond me.
[Streak 5 General] geo.samuel:
I have seen that message on a friends streak, and definitely there is fastboot but the device is kindda semi bricked(??), you cant put any custom image on it, neither any other official rom.

The message actually says something like this:

Dell Confidential

The emergency software recovery failed please contact a nearest dell service center to get it repaired, do not pull the battery out of the unit, or try to restore factory defaults.

After that the phone boots up normally( however the phone factory resets on its own a lot, like once or twice a day)

354 rom is installed on the phone

and streakmod recovery while installing(Any custom rom) says that the sd card is not detected.

This happened after he tried something with QDL.

However dell is replacing the unit.

We are even unable to take a nandroid of the phone.

Seems like a bad internal sd card

IMHO to the OP refrain to buy the unit.....

I see Linux drivers for the GPS chipset on the web.

Now I'm not very knowledgeable with Linux yet - can someone tell me if it's a "swap and play" job that we can do ourselves or not?

I suppose this will have been considered by the wise already, but I couldn't find it if it has been documented anywhere!

Wow.. about freaking time..

I downloaded all if them. Lol. And I'm confused actually. The demo that is on the Marketplace is different then the one I downloaded of Asphalt 5 .

The market version is slow and nearly unplayable..and actually gave me the sense that the EVO was a terrible gaming platform. But the version from the site plays much better.

Did I just download an older version from the market? Like.. before the updated it with EVO optimization?

...in 1943, I killed a drifter.

Hello all.

This is the first application i have made. It gives you the ability to use the camera flash.

It uses the samsung sdk v 2.2 so only phones supported by it can use this application.

If you haven't already installed the sdk redistributable then download that cab and install that first.

Please give me some advice and tips on how to improve this app.

Also please report any bug you find.

Updated to v1.01:

Now it shuts off after 15 seconds to prevent damage on led.

Version number updated properly.

awesome app, now need to light the way using the touch screen light while traveling in dark :D

Suggestion: Should have time limit on how much time the light is ON, probably 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rille95:
you mean like, there is some kind of input box ( dropdown,custom,whatever ) where you say how long time the light should be on?

You could count to 10 and then press the button ;) lol
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] darthveda:
lol..

the suggestion is to prevent accidental long usage of teh LED flash, which might reduce it's life very much.

I'm tired of my grey Android! So, How can I add my own picture or sync it w/ facebook?

I'm using cm6-rco fyi.
[HTC Aria General] cegna09:
i would like to know as well. The stock rom did it, but i think that was because of Facebook for sense. I don't even have the android, i just have a grey square in messages.
[HTC Aria General] cegna09:
any solution? I've set my phone number in settings, added myself as a contact that matches my facebook, synced facebook, etc etc. I got a grey android for 2 days then back to a grey square. really irritating.

running CM6.
[HTC Aria General] Mike's Aria:
You need to put your picture in your contact on your device.

The reason it's not syncing your facebook photo is you don't have yourself as a friend on facebook. I don't think if you can do that either.

Also, you may have to reset your number if/whenever you reboot. Sometimes just going into call setting/additional settings/my phone number will cause it to re-recognize the number.

If you're using ADW launcher, which comes with CM6, you go into ADW settings>Screen Preferences>then uncheck Wallpaper Scrolling.

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustinkh:
Right on! Okay thanks. I have the metal slug live background on (you can drop bombs on zombies as they walk by, pretty funny stuff) and this helped fix up a slight lag issue I had.

Thanks for the help, it's greatly appreciated!

Edit:

I had fixed the wallpaper scrolling for launcher pro only..when I go into screen preferences in adw settings I don't even have an option to disable wallpaper scrolling. The closest to it I've found is in settings->display; an option that says auto-rotate screen.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

So, I bought my unlocked and unbranded Desire from India. It has Android 2.1 and I want to install 2.2 on it.

1. Can I directly use RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8_Radio_32.4 3.00 . 32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed.exe on my cell regardless of the version of 2.1 it's running?

3. Will I need a goldcard? And again, All these ROMs will be compatible with my Asian Desire, right? Or will I brick it?
[Desire General] shave31:
Please help me out, I want to give it a try.
[Desire General] restrict:
Hi.

To install wwe rom u need the goldcard. U dont need to root it. I had first created the goldcard. Then installed the wwe rom. And then install OTA for froyo.

Just keep one thing in mind. When u update to froyo ota do do keep your goldcard only in the fone or else it wont install and os gets corrupted. Desire will keep on rebooting
