[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] totoche330:
it is a shame it is not popular.

I have this device since June. I guess I am getting old, and the little screen of my Polaris was just not fun anymore. The screen of the Athena and the real keyboard were really the 2 attractive points before I touched the beast for real.

So here we go for a search and I found one almost new 5 months ago over the net for 200 Euros.

That's probably the best deal I have done.

I have the device at work and at home, also at customer site. I receive my calls (through Bluetooth), while taking notes or making reports. Even camera pictures are good to fill in reports. WM6.5 works great on this fast device, the only thing I miss is the letter recogniser mode when I have to take notes not seating somewhere. But vocal notes do the trick.

i check my mails both personnals and professionnals, review a presentation in the plane, give free phonecalls to my family while travelling, and finish by a good movie or the news on streaming TV.

It is said to be big, but in fact not bigger than a decent leather covered organizer.

So bad they stopped it...

And so bad there is so few brands believing in this all-in-one concept !!!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] KukurikU:
does anybody of you have a decent, stable ROM for it?

most of the links here are dead and trying the ROMs i was able to find was a great disappointment...i tried them all, even the Wm 6 ones.

thanks!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] rjstep3:
For dead links to ROMs, the trick is to Google the exact name and see if some kind soul has uploaded them somewhere - try it, it sometimes works.

I am using AGB 3.0 - to be honest, the device is slow by modern standards, and it not really finger-friendly, it takes quite a tap with a finger to get the thing to respond.

However, yesterday, a young American looked impressively at it as I used it in the train, and asked if it was a phone or a tablet - and what OS it ran. I told him it was old, several years old, and ran WM (albeit a new version). OK, he was disappointed - but that is it, this gadget was way ahead of its time, if they did it again, it would succeed with a few tweaks (modern CPU, faster and better battery).

Check Michy's sigs in any of his comments - there is a link to all of his ROMs, he removed it from rapidshare.

I recommend his Clear Edition 6 R1 or something version - I found it quite usable as I wasn't able to revert the WM6.5 start menu, found in the AVG 3 rom, to 6.1.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] techntrek:
Nah, not dead, still in daily use by many. My Athena was 3 years old last month and I still haven't found a phone that I might want (the HD2 is close, but I got one for my wife and the screen still just feels too small). Still carry it every day.

Yeah, I have to agree that this was an awesome device wayyyyy before its time. I still have mine and just dug it out of a drawer today. What I would really love to do is throw some Linux on it or something and use it as a tablet. No such luck. I really like my HD2, but nothing got me so much attention with people asking what the heck is that thing 3 years ago as my Advantage.

alright folks

flashed the new Cyanogen mods 6.0 rom today along with GApps rom

deleted the files that i didnt want on my phone such as car home and amazon/twitter etc, reflashed it yet i still have them there everytime i wipe/flash a new rom!

my brother even reflashed a new recovery image through revoked and yet its still the exact same even though it worked on his phone!

any idea how i would get rid of these apps?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] kcharng:
When will kies support my phone. It is shameful that everytime you click on application in kies it keep poping up that this phone is not supported.

It had been months since launch.when will they fix this? Also it would be really nice if kies would allow you to organise your app in the application screen as well as implement some sort of folder system. Over 11 pages of apps. It is starting to look like yellow pages.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] alovell83:
to ask the stupid question that I think you're smart enough to have already done since you have lag fix and other fixes...

you have the drivers installed, right? I know it's automatic, but some people didn't have success with the auto-install and had to go a manual route.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TMReuffurth:
Well this isn´t such a stupid question since he asked when the Galaxy S will appear in Kies for the Samsung Apps and it will be possible to download apps directly in Kies and not only with the Samsung App Store on the phone.

But unfortunetely i can´t respond when Samsung will implement Android Apps in Kies. Maybe there are to less Android Apps for now, so there is no need right now for this.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alovell83:
Upon re-reading, I think I misunderstood the question almost entirely. So, there are two issues, on is the platform. Samsung apps are largely meant for Bada. However, there are some Android apps as well. But there, I think Samsung's apps are mostly regional dependent, and it depends on carrier stores prevalence in the area.

They probably reached agreements to not offer Samsung apps in areas where carriers have launched, or will launch an app store of their own, and Samsung will integrate into that. There are at least 3 countries I've heard of this being the case in. I wouldn't expect the fix you are hoping for anytime soon, but you can look to see if your carrier has a store that contains the Asphalt 5 and other apps that Samsung has available for distribution.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the Interceptor:
Hi there! :)

I have a smaller problem - let's call it a malaise - with my i9000. It's about the integrated calendar and its default color - cyan. I have a mostly transparent calendar widget on my homescreen, and every appointment I have in my calendar has this blindingly colorful cyan bar beside it. That I'd like to change by changing the color for appointments in the stock calendar. However, I haven't found a way to do that.

I am aware of the Google calendar and how I can change its color online. However, if I don't synchronize with the phone's internal calendar (which I don't do and don't want to), there seemingly is no way to change the color of the stock calendar online, because the online settings only affect the online calendars.

So, I turn to you experts of details and modifications: is there a way to change that nasty cyan into something more moderate?

EDIT:

Okay, so apparently there is no actual solution to this. I suppose one could make a custom ROM for this, but since noone seems to care about the problem, noone does.

Anyway, I have found two workarounds in the meantime, and I wanted to post them here so that anyone who has the same problem and finds this thread has a chance to solve the colourful dilemma.

1.

Instead of using the inbuilt stock calendar, you can use Google Calendar (GC). If you have an Android phone, you have a Google account and therefore can use GC right away. The reason: somehwere deep within GC's options you can choose what color to use for the entries in this online calendar. So what you do is choose the color you like, put your events in the Google Calendar instead of the phone's own and configure Android to synchronize with it now and then. You can still create events on the phone, you just need to choose in which calendar (internal or external) you'd like to create them.

2.

Use the Android Agenda Widget as a calendar widget for your phone. Among its endless list of options is a little checkbox where you can choose to have your events displayed, but without the color of the calendar they come from.

I wanted to offer you links to both these options, but since I don't have enough posts yet the system doesn't let me. But you know how to use Google, so I'm sure you'll find these things. ;)

If i do a Nadroid backup in Rom Manager before flashing a ROM and the flashing goes wrong and the phone wont boot.

Is there a way to Restore the Nadroid backup and get to the ClockworkMod menu without hooking the phone up to a pc and running windows tools.

The only menu i can get to is the HBOOT one which gives me the options

FASTBOOT

RECOVERY

CLEAR STORAGE

SIMLOCK

if i choose recovery , the phone reboot to a black screen with a phone and a red triangle with an exclamation mark.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgrec92:
when your phone is at the screen with the phone and the red triangle with the exclamation mark press vol-up + power button

a blue menu will then appear, select 'apply update.zip' (this ensures that you have update.zip on the root of your sdcard.

if you root your phone using unrevoked then this blue menu will be replaced with the clockworkmod recovery meaning no more phone with red triangle and exclamation mark.

if you use unrevoked, you can reboot into recovery simply by holding volume down when turning on your phone.

hope this helps

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dialbat:
So i've rooted my slide and used it for a while and now i'm ready to change my ROM for something custom.

I'm deciding between

CyanogenMod-6 for MT3G Slide - V6.0.0 (08/28/2010)

and

ChromaticSlide v1.2 by Infinitybiff - 2.2-Themed- OC (8/30/2010)

but prior to making this any changes, i've written down all apps that i use, so i could redownload them later.

But how can backup my text messages? or anything else i should back up??

Thanks
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] migueltherocker:
Hey man, next time post in Q&A, but:

Chromaticslide is basically the same as CM6 except it has a (very nice) theme. I was running CM6 and switched to chromaticslide and I love it.

To backup your text messages, there's a couple apps in the market all called SMS backup, try the first one in the list. It saves them to your sd card, and when you switch over to your new rom, re-download sms backup and select to restore them.

Any pictures, videos, etc. will stay on your sd card.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultan.of.swing:
2.2 roms usually will automatically restore your apps as soon as you load up the market.

Another vote for sms backup here as well.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dialbat:
Thank you guys for your replies!

"Hey man, next time post in Q&A," - noted!

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] migueltherocker:

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stoneyjonez:
If you would like to backup more than just SMS, I would highly recommend Titanium Backup! It lets you backup almost everything.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] migueltherocker:
If you do use Titanium backup, make sure when you restore apps, you do not restore app data. It causes issues with Froyo.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xl DIGITAL lx:
I restored the app data aswell through titanium backup and caused no problems so far.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobilkungen78:
i searched nut to no awail..whats the diffrence between odexed and dodexed rom?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K900:
There are .odex files installed with apps. In some roms they are removed, in the others they're left in place. They contain some normally useless data, so a deodexed rom has more free space in internal memory. But some apps actually DO need them, so a odexed rom will generally be more stable.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobilkungen78:
thanx for the info
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marinierb:
dex files contain resources that are essential for the Dalvik engine to run applications. They are either compiled from the apk before the first execution and put into the /data partition, or come "pre-compiled" in the form of odex files which reside in the /system partition.

Odexed ROMs therefore take up more system space (of which there is usually plenty) and less precious data space. That's a big advantage. But you can't theme a ROM that is odexed. That's the disadvantage.

Below are four new android UI animations created by Stale Bread, these will change how things popup and show on screen.

There are two ways to apply new animations first is Metamorph and second is to manualy copy new animations to your android phone.

This should work on ANY 2.1 and 2.2 (apparently it works on 2.3 :) ) android phone!

NOTE If Metamorph fails, you get force closes or boot loops, try to manually add animations!!

-

Metamorph

(thanks cXhristian from samdroid).

Before morph do a nandroid backup so you can revert if you don't like them, or if anything goes wrong!!!!

Fly In Animations:

Download.

Youtubewith Fly In animations.

Fold Animations:

Download.

Youtube with Fold Animations.

Flip Animations:

Download.

Youtube with Flip Animations.

Bounce Animations:

Download.

Youtube with Bounce Animations.

Download all animations!

Stock Lockscreen animations, flash this if the text "Unlock" has disappeared from your lockscreen (Stock android only, with Sense and other shouldn't be a problem)

How to use animations with Metamorph:

First install Metamorph from Android Market.

Download the animation you wish to have, and place it on the root of SD card.

Start Metamorph and press "Start Checks".

After checks press "Unzip/Extract new theme" then locate the animations zip on SD card.

Metamorph will automatically extract them, when finished extracting a window will popup, press close.

Now just press "Apply all!" and wait for reboot.

Done!

-

Manually copy animations

Before doing this do a nandroid backup so you can revert if you don't like them, or if anything goes wrong!!!!

Connect your phone to your PC (USB debuging must be on!)

Download required ADB shell files (users who know how to operate with adb don't need this), and extract them to root of your C disk.

First you need your framework-res.apk, open cmd and copy below code:

cd c:\Android

adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk c:\Android

This will copy framework-res.apk to C:\Android

Downlad the animation you want from above Metamorph part of the post.

Open the file with compression/decompression program (Winrar, Winzip), and

extract the framework-res where you want.

Open the (pulled from phone) framework-res.apk with Winrar/Winzip and navigate to res/anim (you need to see all sorts of .xml files and leave the window open)

Now open the framework-res (from Metamorph zip)and go to res/anim, select all files within anim folder, drag and drop them to previously left open Winrar/Winzip window, now there are new animations in framework-res.apk, you can close Winrar/Winzip window.

Phone needs to be connected to PC. Enter the below code to cmd to push framework-res.apk back to phone:

cd c:\Android

adb remount

adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk

adb reboot

Hope it works =)
