In efs folder i don't have any *.bak file. I tried unlock methods described in this forum but none worked. Any ideea what more can i do? My phone if bought with contract from Orange Romania.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xarxiusxiii:
Your phone needs to be rooted and USB debugging needs to be enabled.

That directory is where you've extracted the Android SDK, so it may be different on your phone. Just Google "Android SDK", download the version for Windows, extract it somewhere and then use that directory.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ed10000:
How do I check the product code? Does it display this anywhere in this phone or just the registry?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ewok666:
You need the Android SDK installed or another source of ADB (comes with some root/flash) packages. You can also do this with root explorer ........ IF you have rooted the phone. If I were you I'd either read up or stop flashing my phone with beta software ;-)

Sorry for the noob question, but moving from HTC to Vibrant, I am still learning things as I go.

Here is the question:

I have Launch pro and I really love it. The problem I am having is I can not move my short cuts between the diffrent screens.

Yes I did a search and could not find anything on this.

Could someone please give me a quick hand

Thanks in advance
[Vibrant General] hockeyrcks9901:
Just go to the screen where you want the shortcut, open the app drawer, long press on the one you want and put it on the screen. No need to move them between screens, just place new ones.

[Vibrant General] bweed83:
you can move between screens you just have to move the icon as far over as you can then hold it there for a second and i should transition
[Vibrant General] xxredx3:
Yea I tried to swipe it to the next screen really fast, did not work. I tried holding it there for about 10 seconds, did not move it.

So is it possibule that you have to delete the old one and create and new short cut if you want that short cut on a diffrent screen????

Don't seem right to me, that you would need to do that
[Vibrant General] xxredx3:
Ok got it. Thanks guys for the help.

I had to use almost my finger nail to get it as far over as I could, man that was rough

Thanks again
[Epic 4G General] Fixter:
What is this new update that my Epic says it has?
[Epic 4G General] cognitivel0gic:
The update adds amazon mp3 application enhances hotspot application performance and modifies 4g scanning
[Epic 4G General] Fixter:
If I want root. I can't apply the update, right?
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
Do not apply it until there is a confirmed rooted zip. Which we will need a recovery image for. I assume koush could get us something soon.
[Epic 4G General] chris5h:
The update DOES NOT hurt the root. I am rooted and have the update installed
[Epic 4G General] ImSoHungry:
confirmed, same here, rooted with update.

Now, i do not know if the root just stuck after the update, or if you can root after you update, that hasnt been confirmed as i rooted before the update.

I see this here: http://htc-linux.org/wiki/index.php?title=LeoWifi#Ad_Hoc_Mode

Manually setting up WiFi in Android (not needed)

Manual WPA Supplicant configuration:

add the following to the file /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf This will enable you to connect automatically to any open AP.

network={

Does this mean, if i add that into that file, when ever i turn on wifi it will try to connect to anything that it finds open automaticly? BUT still be able to select select manualy any wifi that is locked down?

Hi,

I'm using CM6 Stable and the Snap v8.1 Static Kernel (the HAVS kernels caused bootloops for me) and I've noticed that now my phone never reaches a full charge. I've also noticed erratic battery behavior. For example, today when I unplugged my phone (after charging all night) it was at 98%. Now 11 mins later it is at 90%.

Do you think this is a CM6 issue, or more likely a kernel issues? If it's the kernel, what kernel do people recommend with CM6 that will be stable and provide optimum battery life?

Thanks,

Matt.
[XPERIA X10 General] bjohnny85:
Thanks

Cheers for that. Very interesting :).

I definitely agree about the task killer apps, the OS does a perfect job at running itself!

One question, Am i correct in presuming you have 3g always running? Network mode set to GSM/WCDMA preferred? Ive been afraid to do this as i have it in my head that 3g eats up my battery for fun! I'll have to try it out.

Thanks again!
[XPERIA X10 General] helliewm:
I bought an extended battery for my X10 the sloping sides stop it looking like a brick. The G1 always looked like a brick with an extended battery but the X10 sloping sides do serve a purpose.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
I prefer this:
[XPERIA X10 General] JamesBarnes:
Yep, thats correct :) With the 3g on it seems to stay in 2g when sleeping then switch to 3g when you wake it, you can see the change in the status bar about a second after waking. Pure speculation though ...

Well, let us know how you get on with 3g active all the time :)

I love how slim the x10 is, that combined with the fact that the 3rd party backs are ugly and can be poor fitting mean an extended battery isnt really an option for me, whatever suits though ^^
[XPERIA X10 General] TechGuru_x10:
Nice one where i can get one.
[XPERIA X10 General] JamesBarnes:
I certainly plan on getting a pair of bluetooth headphones, will be interesting to see how they affect battery life...
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
It's from Sanyo. It's being released in Japan in October, but, I'm sure it will come out internationally as well.
[XPERIA X10 General] r_theboss:
James thanks u were helpful
[XPERIA X10 General] mmsbludhound:
Some additional tips based on my personal experience:

-Using a third-party task launcher helps too. Some may not agree, but it works for me.

-Use a third-party digital clock widget instead of the stock one. Again, YMMV.

-Use a third-party(AGAIN!) MP3 player instead of Mediascape. I'm using Meridian, and notice an increase in battery life when playing MP3s.
[XPERIA X10 General] ProBoner:
I like having some control so I run task killer but there's no auto-kill enabled and if I know the phone is just going to turn it back on in 5min, I don't bother killing those apps. Maybe I should just remove it altogether, but it seems convenient to be able to kill an app at will (I do it with windows sometimes).

I think the reason why you find that the stock one drains your battery is due to the "use network provided values" being checked in the date and time settings.
[XPERIA X10 General] Ny88:
Interesting article. I am running 024 and my battery is life is poor. I managed to get seven hours use yesterday after a full charge. My usage throughout the day wasn't anything too crazy. Where I work I get only a standard signal (no 3G). I seem to get a better battery life.
[XPERIA X10 General] Ballfuzz:
I agree battery life is horrible. It makes me really miss my blackberry.

Even when battery life is low, charging it takes FOREVER, not to mention if you plug it in and play with it at the same time, it charges even slower.

My Blackberry Tour charged fully in what seemed like 45 mins from less than 10% batt life. I know they are different phones, but it just really sucks to me.

I'm debating going back to a blackberry now. The X10 and other android phones (and Iphone), are more toys than anything else.

/end rant.

hehe sorry
[XPERIA X10 General] JamesBarnes:
Thats odd, my phone charges pretty damn fast, just a few days ago i was pleasantly surprised that it charged from completely empty (id forgotten to charge it) to ~80% in less than an hour.
[XPERIA X10 General] mmsbludhound:
Hmm, mine charges from <10% to 100% within 1 - 2 hours.

Make sure you are charging by AC, charging by USB does indeed take forever.
[XPERIA X10 General] Ballfuzz:
Yeah I agree by USB takes forever.
[XPERIA X10 General] Cebees:
Quite interesting for me, I decided to add some statistical experiment about it.

Under my situation and environment. (I won't go in detail, sorry about that)

With SetCPU were 2.32% per hour without any usage.

W/O SetCPU were 3.18% per hour without any usage.

or approximately 7% maximum saving per day time. (for me)

My SetCPU only effected sleep state.

Not a big deal but still significant different, but it could survive for whole day anyhow.

I'm more interested about Killing app. I might try after this as I see many argument about it. :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 General] JamesBarnes:
Ohh figures, good stuff! Always better to have some numbers to work with.

Do you not find that for a few seconds after waking up the phone gets choppy?

I would definitely be interested in seeing the stats with a task killer :)
[XPERIA X10 General] xGary:
Do you guys leave internet/gps on or something? I get 3 hours/percent on idle.
[XPERIA X10 General] Cebees:
Yup, with SetCPU for sleep state, it was 'choppy' for a few sec, mostly effect lock screen and screen switching.

I have a strange issue. I did a factory reset of my Motorola Milestone and now the Market App is missing. Please note its not that some apps are missing but the Market Application is itself missing.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] NorskHelgen:
You may have to find a default rom for you Milestone or Droid and flash it using RSD Lite (Google it). You did a factory reset anyways so all it will do is reset your phone again with all your default apps now available.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] irfan.arif:
A couple of questions:

1. Will I have to root for installing the ROM?

2. After flashing, will I be able to update official ROMs in future like Froyo?

[Droid Incredible General] iflip:
G1 android and developement has become so far advanced due to it being the first device. these guys are so knee deep in the rabbit hole. Can a method like this be possible for our device? Im sure. Id pay for info like that. Check out this link about unbrickin the g1.:

http://code.google.com/p/android-roms/wiki/Unbrick
[Droid Incredible General] rynosaur:
The method there concerns a pretty "soft" "brick" . . . i.e., a G1 that has lost its way but will still boot into bootloader. A real "brick" is when there is a boottime /cache partition conflict with the SPL and/or radio, which causes a security fault at the NAND level, and results in the device being stuck in fail-safe mode (boot mode 3), i.e., the kind of safe mode that only a JTAG tool or new mainboard will fix. My description is rough, but suffice it to say, you can't get to the bootloader, or recovery, to logcat, or past boot image 1--and in that case, the wiki's fix will NEVER be able or get a chance to work. We have the same procedure that wiki is describing, which entails: 1. reflashing in bootloader with a stock, unrooted RUU/OTA ROM including radio and boot.img 2. booting up then starting Unrevoked 3.1 or higher, which nails down root access and installs a custom Recovery, then 3. Using S-Off and/or flashing a custom, rooted ROM.

that's about it :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] St3v3-):
Oke I flashed my TP2 :), and the flashing had one problems:( that was the first time I run the flashing rom(energie) it stop on the tri-color screen, and the flashing stopt there so I ran the same flashing rom again wile the TP2 showed the tri-color and it continued the flashing process:) so I thought every thing is a oké.

Then the phone did it first boot on the new rom and it stopt at the rom loading screen so right a way I knew somthing is not a oké. I tried flashing with sd, hard reset, mutty, 1 minute battery out the phone. I will give these option another go if you tell me how to do it with this phone.:

So kan somebody help me with this problem.

I bought the phone in The Nederlands

I don't know the rest of the specs:confused:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Lennyz1988:
Go into bootloader, plugin your usb, run task 29. Then when you are finisht, go back into bootloader, plug in your usb. Then flash the rom again true your pc.

btw did you install hardspl? you didn't mention it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] St3v3-):
How do i get in bootloader:confused:, is that the screen that comes after tri-color screen.

btw and yes I did use install hardspl.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
The Tri Color screen is the bootloader. When connected to the computer it should say "USB" at the bottom. Otherwise it says "Serial".

EDIT: What version is your SPL? The unlocked version is 85.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] St3v3-):
I used the Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3.exe. I am using Radio 2.08.50.05 + task29.zip. I am using the task 29 after is pushed the power, Call, Hang Up, but i keep getting the 260 error. What I am doing wrong.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
When you go into bootloader screen, what version of SPL is displayed? It should end in 85.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] St3v3-):
I cant see the tri-color screen long enough too read what it shows.

RHOD 100 32M SS-BC

SPL - 0.85.011 MAX

MicroP(LED) 0X0A

MicroP(KEY) 0X04
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Lennyz1988:
Read this page for your questions.

Then go into the bootloader. Plugin your usb and flash using your pc. Just run the customruu.exe.

Or you can try flashing from your sd card. your choise :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] St3v3-):
Thanks for helping guys:D, I have fix the phone. I did not now that I could enter bootloader with VolDown + power button, thanks to that I could fix the phone by flashing the phone with a rom.:):):):)

So, over the past two months, my body glove case from sprint has basically just fallen apart. I remember when u first got it, I thought a lot of the reviews were full of **** bc it worked so well for me. Then, both of the top corners chipped off the backside just from normal use! No drops! I don't even put my phone in pocket, I use a holster.

The straw was when the piece by the volume broke. I called sprint, and they said that it was an in store issue. So I went in the next day.

I go in with my receipt. It was just over two months old, so I was all ready to cuss these people out when they said something, but the guy who came to the podium said I dint even need my receipt, that it was known problem and they replace these all the time.

Of course it varies store to store so ymmv, but if yours gas broken, its at least worth giving a shot at just bringing it back bc it seems like they've caught wind that these things are junk.

All spelling errors thanks to xt9 on my Evo!

No, its the one sold directly from sprint

All spelling errors thanks to xt9 on my Evo!
[EVO 4G Accessories] Alanmw86:
the reason you didn't need a receipt is because its a Sprint only product, and its less than a year old because its for the evo (obvious) and sprint warranties all of there accessories for a year.

You are however by policy still supposed to have a receipt but i'll tell you right now that accessories at sprint stores are fairly loosely controlled haha solong as its rung out of the inventory doesn't matter

oh and BTW every single body glove I've ever sold for sprint was a POS the coating always comes off.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Jfree3000:
LOL I told ya! Even the one from bodyglove with the foam back is crap. I have had both versions and they are both POS. I will never buy a body glove product ever again, as mentioned they always start to peel as was the case when I had my Lg env touch. Otterbox needs to get the ball rolling so I can buy a case that doesn't explode when you drop it.

[EVO 4G Accessories] ausch30:
I'm on my 3rd right now, the others have been returned without an issue. This one will probably go back soon as well because it's starting to break, that is, unless the Otterbox cases are available before it completely breaks.
[EVO 4G Accessories] MrDSL:
This story is an EXAMPLE of why you shouldn't go into a store or whatever with a "I'm going to cuss them out if they dont do what I want" attitude.

So you were ready to cuss at people who had NOTHING to do with a product that YOU decided to purchase after YOU read that IT HAD PROBLEMS? Smart one buddy.

On to more serious things... take good care of your things. I don't have a case or glove at all on mine, a chance im willing to take, but it ALWAYS stays in my pocket unless im using it, its second nature now that before I do anything I tap my pocket to check it's there so I don't drop it. I do have the glove sitting on my table though.
