Why use another phone, my phone can make calls, the only problem I have is that I am limited to only be able to use 6 apps and cannot download anything off the internet where as I could before I started having these issues
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
Oh well, if your phone is working, then by all means...lol I just didn't know if you could make calls or not...

my god I have never in my life heard so many whinney *****es
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
It is not our fault you haven't been paying attention...
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Fate43:
ROFLMAO at this ^^^
[Kyocera Zio M6000] hoohoo51:
the sarcasm is strong with this thread.

again, this wasnt a sales pitch, i had already paid for the phone and the tech was in the middle of transfering my data when we started talking about it.

i was told january, i asked for comfirmation that this was true and he confirmed that cricket had for whatever reason skipped 2.1 and 2.2 and were going straight to 2.3.

believe it, dont believe it or just make your own rom and share it
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
Well you see, we have had people come and go in this thread saying they were told this and that and they spoke to whoever and they were given this time frame for whatever update..and then we even had people claiming to be Cricket dealers themselves come in and with their two cents. And of course we went round and round with Kyocera as well.

So, some may be skeptical others may even be cynical about it right now. One thing is for sure, from those of us who have done our own calling, Kyocera and Cricket have not been on the same page about the upgrade and depending on who you talk to, not even everyone at Cricket is on the same page. I mean just a few days ago there was someone on here saying that he worked for Cricket and provided a PDF saying the upgrade was going to be 2.2. Now you're here saying that you heard it is 2.3.

See the contradiction?

So..yeah, a number of us are at the "show me the update and then I will believe it" stage...
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LordAnarchy:
I believe! Churro 2.5 would be better though:) Hopefully he didn't lie but atleast you see how burned cricket has us:) The hawaii has 2.2 yet we paid more? C'est la vie.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] s23bog:
I use my mobile number. Just *74 (forward on busy/no answer) to my GV number. Only hitch really, is when I text via my computer using Google voice, it shows the GV number. Phone calls (from my PC) too. But oh well.

Of course, you need to make sure that you do not make phone calls or send texts using GV to keep CID showing your mobile number.

It seems that for some reason, when I reset my phone to factory, I need to redo the *74.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
What about Flan 2.6? or Sopapilla 2.7?

[Kyocera Zio M6000] cuāuhtli:
Found the source of the problem, but not before they gave me a new Zio. I was wondering why even after I performed a facory reset and a corporate store reinstalled the OS, the phone was still acting up; it was this stupid cheap Class 4 8GB micro sd HC card that I bought. What continues to dumbfound me, though, is the fact that it was proving to be compatible with my phone a few days prior to all the problems that occured.... has anyone else had these problems with this type of memory card? I'm going to try to format this card (FAT32?) and see if that will get it to work, because I would just hate to have to give up this 8GB memory card

Sent from Zio using the browser because I have yet to download the XDA app

Got a ? About Adwlauncher I went to drop an icon from menu onto background and instead dropped it where the 2 icons are at the bottom(fone /msging) and now I can't figure out how to make it go back to 4 lil squares or open menu. :( any help would be appreciated thanks
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
I think we get the naming scheme...we just didn't care...
[Kyocera Zio M6000] cuāuhtli:
The format seemed to worK, hopefully it stays that way
[Kyocera Zio M6000] oconnorfamilyof4:
I do know that the number has to a local number, it cannot even be local toll. But you have to include the area code also so it would look like this say in denver, *743035551212. you will not get anything other than a stuffed tone when its done and that will forward allmissed falls to Th for voicemail. Hope this helps
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Anybody? This is really annoying not being able to pull up my appreciate drawer?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
I'm not sure if this will work, hit menu from the home screen click ADW settings, scroll all the way down and click reset ADW settings. It should clear it back to default. You will have to rearrange your home screens though.

....edit... that did not work! I purposely replaced the menu icon with an app, and I cannot get the menu icon back. Will just have to reinstall ADW launcher.

Edit 2

Alright. This did work for me, hit menu from home screen, adw settings, backup and restore, restore adw settings.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] hotaru:
if you accidentally replaced your app drawer button in adw, long press on an empty area on your home screen, tap "Custom shortcut", tap "Pick your activity", tap "Launcher Actions", tap "Open/close App Drawer", and hit ok.

then you can move that shortcut onto the middle button at the bottom.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
Even better method! Thanks!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LordAnarchy:
lol. Its just messing around. Although, if these names appear as an os codename, don't say we told you.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
What the hell is with android combining electronics and pastrys! Soon ill be expecting to pull some fresh baked goods right out of my phone!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] DarkkEnergy:
Now that is a better solution. Thanks!!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] cuāuhtli:
who knows? they sure do have the processing power... lol hell, soon enough an android powered device will have the processing power to be able to provide you with the blueprints for a time traveling DeLorean that can open and close black holes at will and divide Chuck Norris by zero.... just throw in an oven and it can do just about anything
[Kyocera Zio M6000] cuāuhtli:
why tap everything? we were provided with this uber useful trackball for a reason!......... right?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Worst track ball evar!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
I hit the Data Limit today. Cricket backed my 3g speed down to the speed of a 56K Modem!! ARRRGGG.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LiuAnshan:
The only thing I use the trackball for is fine selection of links on web pages but even then I can usually do it with my finger just fine
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
How much data are we talking about? I know I have used a massive amount of data, especially in October and November and I didn't notice a significant drop in speed except maybe when I was in a poorly covered area and once or twice during peak hours which I contributed to those specific circumstances.

Now, when I say I use massive amounts, I am talking like I will use my SiriusXM app for hours a day, every day plus use my phone as a modem for my laptop while streaming video and this is quite frequently. I also usually have all data and GPS settings on my phone open the vast majority of the time so everything just automatically updates.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
Well Cricket says 1G of data a month. So I must have used that. I do think there was a day I teathered to my laptop and watched a show off of netflicks. Wifi was down that day.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
Really just 1 gig? That to me does snot equal "unlimited" data. To be honest, that seems like kind of a low limit to me.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Before they launched the huawei the zio description didn't include 1gig limit but after they launched ascend I noticed the limit on its description and was like wtf and went back an read the zio description and it then included the 1 gig limit amendment.. I concur that in no way does unlimited equal 1 gig..
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
Is there any decent gallery replacement apps for 1.6? I have looked and looked and can't really find ****! I've tried a few different ones and justpictures is alright, but id like to try others if there are any?

I came across one app called liquidflow (look it up on youtube) that gallery app looks pretty bad ass although I doubt its for 1.6 and Im not sure if the dev even released it. I couldn't find anything but demos and articles about it.

Also is anyone using swype on their zio and if so what version?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
That was a selling point for me too. I got the Zio a few weeks after it came out. I remembered reading unlimited data and saying wow great deal. I can tether it and dont have to worry about getting separate internet. Better than their 3g internet service. I guess sometime after that Cricket must have had the OHCRAP moment and changed the data plan.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LithGFX:
Can't wait to see custom ROMs, I wish there were a Sprint user that could give us 2.1 :/
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
Try numberpad keyboard. Its great.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] s23bog:
Bluetooth

I think I may know why I was having trouble with Bluetooth (knock on wood). I think it was because I was listening to music with Bluetooth on. I think that when I received calls, it put the Bluetooth in a funky state that it was really hard to bring out of.

Anyhow, not really on topic, but I mentioned my problems earlier in this thread, and thought that maybe I could get some collaboration on my findings, and/or help someone else out.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] weasel5i2:
If you have a root shell prompt, type in "reboot recovery" and it should take you there. However, I wouldn't know the button combos, as I'm a Backflip owner.. :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] weasel5i2:
BEWARE!! I just did it on my friend's Zio and it worked, it went into Recovery mode, but unfortunately, on these phones, apparently the only function of Recovery mode is to do a wipe of /DATA and /CACHE, which it did. Grrr.

--W5i2
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LithGFX:
Indeed. I was using the Quick Boot application to try out the Recovery mode one, couldn't abort it in time.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] hotaru:
we got clockwork recovery working, but apparently the zio screws up it's network settings before it boots into recovery, so unless you wipe data, it's useless.

this means you have to use some other method for backing up user data, but it works fine for backing up boot + system and flashing zip files (even tho there aren't yet any useful ones to flash on the zio, afaik).
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LithGFX:
Anyone know the possibility of using Cyanogen on it? I might.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
No catch? Not impressed

And theres not a way to track or check your data usage...

Hmm. Seems like a pretty big catch to me...
[Kyocera Zio M6000] XboxOmac:


Still, I got to say, its a good deal.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] killa619:
Just download "phone usage" from the market.it gives you data usage also.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
I do say even thou I am at a slow speed I can still use most all my apps. Even Youtube seams to work ok. I am getting 91.2 kbit/s down and 121.8 kbit/s up. And that is with full 3G bars.

So I am not going to really complain too much.

I was getting 1500 kbits down before.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] James80:
Use 3g watchdog on the market, very useful. You can set it to alert you when you are getting near the 1gb limit (have to set the quota to 1GB).
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
I been using my phone like crazy and its been fast never slow. I even got better keyboard and it has a nice ui
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Ok just wondering if anyone else is having this problem.. when I hit the market icon screen saying loading is there for a sec then the loading screen disappears and market won't load. .
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
Nope never. Force stop it and wipe data. In settings
[Kyocera Zio M6000] aago1254:
current version of android

does any one know the current version of android that is being pushed over the air my friend in utah has 2.0 he says im getting a zio tomorrow in the mail
[Kyocera Zio M6000] killa619:
.....huh???
[Kyocera Zio M6000] aago1254:
my friend has a zio in utah market that says he has android 2.0 on his phone im just trying to see if that is real or if he is confused since i didnt see his phone or anything...
[Kyocera Zio M6000] killa619:
Yeah well i highly doubt that it is true.no one has said anything about getting it. We are all stuck on 1.6 last i checked :(
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
Sprint released theirs with 2.1 not 2.0. The Cricket update is going to be 2.1 not 2.0. So unless someone custom built a 2.0 ROM to go on the phone, then no, he does not have 2.0.

Oh, and there is no OTA update "being pushed" right now. If you look through the thread it is stated about 2 dozen times the update will be next year.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
It just started the other night and still wont open I've tried to force close and it doesn't?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] xmicroman:
I wanted to try Better Key Board But

I have a hard time buying a product I cant try first. I went with Slide It I love it I can just Swipe its much easier than switching to landscape. Portrait is very hard with my fingers. One thing I miss about Windows Mobile is the Keyboards always seemed better over all than my first android experience the Zio. As far as slowness I notice quite a a lag when I hit home from an application especially maps or navigation.

Final thought everything I had to tweek with windows Mobile that took me days I did in the first day with my android.

MM
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
If you have titanium backup. Force stop and then freeze unfreeze it
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
Sorry freeze then wipe data then defrost

Tell me if this works
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
Have you tried uninstalling the updates for the market? I was having some weird issues with the market awhile back, I uninstalle the market updates and it seemed to fix the problem. Although, what your experiencing is a little different from the problem I was having.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
I did uninstall updates and it will let me in after I hit agree to the terms,but as soon as I go out and try to go back in it just goes to white screen that says loading but the activity circle isn't moving its froze then it just exits out without force close or anything I've used titanium to restore it and even uninstalled it and it will work the first time but freeze everytime after that
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
Maybe your going to have to do A factory reset
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Yeah I'm sure I will and this is the ****ing 4th time having to reset due to the marketplace since having this piece of ****!! Does anyone know a contact person for android? Not mad @ u but I just got my phone way I wanted since last **** up and now gotta do the **** all over this is annoying as hell
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
Try and back up everything first with my back up pro. There's a free version in the market. You could back up ur whole phone its pretty good. That way after reset u back up everything
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
Does anybody know how to start a new tread. I want to putt pix on there to see everybody screens how they look
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Ok so I jst did factory reset to fix my marketplace prob and when fone restarted after reset there was no marketplace on my phone soooo dies anyone have an older marketplace than 2.2.6 they can upload me smewhere? Thanks in advance
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
I could back up mine but I wouldn't no how to.upload it on here from my phone
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Thanks for quick reply I don't know how to get it upped either.. anyone know or can you? Also isn't it kind of crazy that the market didn't reinstall after FACTORY RESET?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] aj203355:
I know I'm super late on this reply but I checked around to confirm and have your answer....

With the 2.2 update, the exploit that allows for "1-click rooting" is patched in 2.2. Most of the websites reference tutorials stating that you have to have a custom rom built and load that custom rooted rom to your phone to allow for rooting. I may be wrong but I WAS TRYING TO BE HELPFUL TO EVERYONE and make sure that we didn't get all excited about getting the firmware update (whenever that may be) and then realize that we can't root our devices.

Also, I'm tired of this phone already. 1.6 is complete crap, or at least my image is....I'm going to the Cricket store and am going to have them flash my phone to the original image. After that, if I continue to have the phone I'm just going to sell my phone on craigslist and get another android phone....most likely with Cricket...

lol....maybe we'll get the newest firmware update called "chrome 8 - aka chrome OS".....I hear it's going to be right after the "ice cream" update.....j/k I actually heard chrome OS sucks....for now anyways.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
http://www.4shared.com/file/wwvWh2lB/MarketUpdater.html

i uploaded this from my phone, im not sure if this is the one you need.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Thanks but I'm missing com.android.vendor
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
Ok,ill upload that now!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
You didn't say 1 click rooting, you originally just said it could not be rooted. I also did not say that it would be easy, I just said it could be rooted and many people have rooted it.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
http://www.4shared.com/account/file/9VqL4czN/comandroidvending.html

and also the vending.apk incase you need it.

http://www.4shared.com/account/file/GhVCC2wG/Vending.html

Also just for the hell of it, i tried to instal market 2.2.6 and it will not even install at all! Its just for android 2.2isnt it?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
Even if the hack has been fixed, it should still be possible. We can rip... wait... damn it. I was thinking if we could get the rom off of it, then modify the adb in the ramdisk with the hacked one that automatically gives root... But a rom dump doesn't work, so we'd need the yaffs2 ripper, which needs root... catch-22. I'm sure there are other ways though. Just not as simple as '1 click'.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] hotaru:
whenever the update to 2.1/2.2/whatever comes, it shouldn't be too hard to get a copy of the update without installing it and make a rooted version of the update. this is usually the preferred method of updating rooted android devices, instead of just blindly installing whatever your carrier gives you and hoping you can find some way to root it again afterwards.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
You are the shiznit! Well it "worked" for me haha I hope this works! Anyone got any ideas besides going to cricket if it doesn't?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
im pretty sure z4root will root 2.1/2.2 on the zio once updated , i rooted my friends droidx 2.2, my sis LG Optimus that was running 2.2, Evo running 2.2, and my zio 1.6 :( so sad its not 2.2 haha, and last but not least my girls htc hero running 2.1 all with z4root,
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Hey man those files totally fixed it you rock brother
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
Annnytime dude!!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Works like a charm! U da man! Thank u so much
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Damn this version of marketplace doesn't have the "related" tab? But atleast it works
[Kyocera Zio M6000] hotaru:
the new one doesn't have tabs at all, it just crams everything into one big jumbled mess of a page.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
I'm glad those files worked for ya! The market version that had the related tab, does not work on my phone at all. The market would load up, and I could search for items fine, but when I would hit download ( it would say it reached 100%) but once it said installing, it would never actually install. The market would just hang up. if I rebooted the phone, that would (sometimes) complete the install. The version of the market that I sent you, is the version that does work fine on mine after uninstalling the market updates via manage applications.

I apologize for the rambling, I'm extemeley intoxicated ; ) !!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Lmao! Ok cool jw.. I drunk rant on here a lot haha
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:

[Kyocera Zio M6000] aj203355:
Look...I just wanted to get my point across so that we were thinking ahead and weren't blindsided when we do get the update. I understand the frustration and just ignored it when I was shot down. Anyways thanks for this forum and thanks to everyone working on this issue and to those messing up your phones in the process. Keep up the struggle....although I foresee cricket dumping 2.1/2.2 on us before any of us get it finished....clock is ticking...

[Kyocera Zio M6000] XboxOmac:
I want to overclock my Zio. Which is the best app for it? I've heard the Zio doesn't work well with SetCPU.

And also, what numbers to overclock my Zio are the best? I hear phones could burn out if the phone is too high and the phone won't be able to stand it... I want it to have a good performance while I use it, but save battery while the screen is off.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
Can someone try going to unicaworld.com on their Zio? It loads, but then crashes shortly after every time I load it. Try tapping on the top to see the menu, or clicking one of the middle images to ajax load new ones on the top scroll bar. I made the site, but I can't view it on my phone :(
[Kyocera Zio M6000] XboxOmac:
Works fine on my Zio using Dolphin Browser.. But if I were you, try to make it into mobile format. :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Nice site man!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] chris.ana25:
Why would u make that site.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
Your site also works on mine, using opera mini.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Hey guys in what folder would I put com.android.vendor? Flare I used ur market and it worked fine first now it crashes when I try to dl stuff?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Flare106:
That's weird. It is located under data/data on mine.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] gregnotcraig:
Leave it alone.

The options for [safe] overclocking are not compiled in to the stock kernel - if the chipset is even underclocked at all to begin with.

You can use setcpu or overclock widget to control the cpu within current boundaries up to the 600Mhz the chip is running.

If the phone ain't fast enough for you, get a nexus one or S or some other phone that is already documented as being overclocked and has kernels capable of handling it.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] killa619:
Does anyone know of any confirmed stock games or applications to uninstall? I already got rid of uno and bowling.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
Well, I opened the market today, and it seems to have updated itself on its own! New market installed and I didn't even do anything or tell it to install it :o

Right now all my focus is on the Notion Ink Adam android tablet. I pre-ordered a Pixel Qi Wifi edition. Videos of final product posted in a few hours, woohoo!!

Can't wait to get it, it will be such a relief from my phone, heh.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
So got market opening but can't dl anything just force closes any ideas?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] xmicroman:
I'm I crazy or did the market update it's self? Started it... it quit.. then flash on screen "application not installed" Tried multiple times to start it. Each time it quits. I turn off my phone try it again. Now it looks like "the Market" was updated. Man Google is brave, sending out updates without warning?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] zyrtek69:
Well lemme tell ya what's really awesome is opening market and not get an update and also not being able to use it! Boy I just love android and the zio! !
