hi everyone

i am using the SenseUI theme (wisbar advance destop 2xx). I got some problem with message2reg.When i replies an SMS, a new SMS window appears but the address is incorrect. It should be like this: "Name"<Number>;, but now it looks like this: ""<Name>;.

It doesn't have "Name" and where should be the "Number", becomes "Name"

For example,Correct form: "John"<123456789>;

Right Now : ""<John>;

I have gone around and used two script but still can't solve the problem.

1/Contact = RegRead("HKLM","Software\ThrottleLauncher\Messaging\SMS","Sender")

Run ("\windows\tmail.exe", "-service ""SMS"" -to """ & Contact & """"<Number> )

2/person =RegRead("HKCU", "Software\My_Utilities\SMS", "Sender")

parameter = """-service ""SMS"" -to """ & person & """ -body """

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rikuna:
I installed the wireless tether app along with a kernal i was told to install from a youtube tutorial "/watch?v=juQbWzxIzmI&feature=fvw" anyhow it all installed fine and the tethering worked great. but after restarting phone it just continued to say "preparing phone storage, checking for errors" and my camera wasn't working either. So I ended up reflashing the 2.2 froyo rooted of course. Everything is working fine now. I'm guessing that the issue came from the app or kernal not being updated to work with froyo? Is there another way to get free tethering on my phone?

I have successfully connected about 90% of my contacts with the correct Facebook contact but I'm having a hard time with those few that are left.

When I choose to link a contact "Freddy Phonebook" with his Facebook contact "Freddy Facebook" I get the normal list of local contacts. When I choose to add contacts from Facebook "Freddy Facebook" isnt in the list anymore since I've already downloaded him once.

Where is "Freddy Facebook" stored and how do I connect him to "Freddy Phonebook"?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigdave196:
Long-press on the "Freddy Phonebook" and then Link Contact and his Facebook profile should be in the list, if it isn't you can press "Get Friends" and see if he's in there
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djr83:
That's the problem. "Freddy Facebook" is not in the list and I cant use "Get Friends" cause he's not there either, since I've already downloaded him once.

In my calendar widget, both "Freddy Phonebook" and "Freddy Facebook" shows up as a birthday note, so "Freddy Facebook" really is somewhere in the phone. I just cant find him.

My MyTouch 3G with 3.5mm jack is still locked to Tmobile. I don't want to pay for Touchdown for Exchange capabilities and PDAnet for tethering...so want to upgrade to the latest stable ROM which seems to be CyanogenMod's Froyo ROMs.

Can I upgrade a locked phone? Do I need to do anything special before doing it?

Try RUU

Dear friend,

I had the same situation with my old Tytn II.

This is my recommendation:

If you have already done the HARD Spl,which is great,now do the following:

Go to the OFFICIAL HTC site and grab the latest stock 2.07 ROM.

Download it and you will get the RUU with it. RUU ( Rom Update Utility). Updating with RUU usually solves many problems when phones stuck at boot or whatever.

Follow the instructions in RUU and flash stock ROM.

But BEFORE you do anything,REMOVE that SD card with Energy ROM on it.

Please let me know if I was helpful.

Good luck,

Alexander.

Ok guys, people seem to be having problems using the LCD Density changer app, so I am making this write up to help you out :)

If you would like to make your Droid X look like this...

Then follow these steps.

Method 1 - ADB

1. Download LCD Density w/ 2.2 market Fix - This also contains the 2.2 market fix (without the stagefright)

2. Put the build.prop in your android-sdk\tools folder

3. Connect your phone via usb, make sure it shows up with adb devices

4. adb remount

5. adb push build.prop /system/build.prop

6. adb reboot

Method 2 - Root Explorer

1. Copy the build.prop to the root of your SD card

2. Long press on build.prop

3. Select "Copy"

4. Navigate to /system

5. Click R/W in the top right corner

6. Paste, and overwrite

7. Reboot

Your screen will now look like this, giving you much more space. And If using ADW launcher, you can use 6 X 5 rows of icons!!

Now if you really like to do things yourself, in the build.prop..

Change

ro.sf.lcd_density=240

to

ro.sf.lcd_density=200

push, reboot.

If you want to revert back, just push this Stock Build prop back into place.

Credit to the guy who made LCD Density app, but it did not work with Droid X phone and koush's recovery installed. People had to SBF, so this post was necessary.
[Droid X Android Development] JustinD2473:

Jacked mine up.. the method works fine, the only problem is that apps are completely screwy now.. the apps only show up in the original size so if your screen is 4 inches the app is only displaying in like 2.5 inches of space and the rest is just black now, also cause some fuzziness with some various icons in the notification bar ( battery etc).. definately gonna revert back
[Droid X Android Development] LexusBrian400:
Weird. Works perfect for me.
[Droid X Android Development] Joe92T:
Only seemed to have resolution problems in the root explorer app, all other apps work fine :confused: Aside from that, i think 200 is probobly a little on the low side, may try 220 or 230 for a improvement

Thanks very much.

FYI

I couldnt adb remount (got an error, not sure why but whatever)

I had to boot into recovery, then do an

adb shell

then just (assuming your modified build.prop is on the sdcard root)

mv /sdcard/build.prop /system

exit & reboot!

230 was a good middle ground

Just seeing as how the people over at the I9000 board have used Kies to get the new Froyo beta builds, does anyone know if we can use the same method for our Captivate? I don't know if anyone has tried it yet, but it's better to ask than to assume!

No froyo for captivate yet, not even beta releases.

As for the I9000 build, yes you can flash it to your Captivate, would I recommend it? No, it's one of the nicer builds out there but you're stuck using the I9000 kernel and modem (Which only supports the 1900 band). On top of that it modifies your /efs folder that contains all of your network codes- sooooo I'd take a pass on this one if I were you =P
