Sounds like you do need to do the Hboot, but just for the sake of everyone else I should mention that this is the only rom I have ever had an issue with when downloading it directly from my phone. I usually do that for all roms and kernels, but I was getting bootloops after multiple downloads from different mirrors. I downloaded from my PC and copied it over and it worked fine. This is my favorite rom by far when combined with kingklick's kernel. Looking forward to the 6.1 update!

[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
Um, I just discovered something very interesting about my Fascinate. It has Adobe Flash Player installed!!! Now, before you get too excited, it's not full Flash 10.1. In the applications list, it just lists as "Version 1", but I would say it's from Adobe, because it uses the official Flash icon.

To test this, I went to Hulu.com, which did not work, but browsing to other sites that use basic Flash animations, I found that while not perfect, it does have a certain amount of Flash functionality. I would call this something similar to HTC's Flash Lite plug-in. However, unlike HTC's version, which only works in the stock HTC browser, this Flash plug-in works in both the stock browser and xScope on my Fascinate (and presumably other third party browsers as well).

I dunno, maybe this Flash functionality was already known about, and I just completely missed it somewhere, but I typically keep up to date on all mobile phone news, and I had never heard that the Galaxy S phones have partial Flash support out of the box (thought only HTC Sense devices had that). It's definitely a bonus for me, as I thought I'd have to wait for Froyo for any level of Flash support.
[Fascinate General] dr154:
this is flash lite thats on most 2.1 devices...
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
Okay, a bit of egg on my face then. I didn't realize that this was a standard feature of Eclair. Back when the HTC Hero/Eris came out out, the fact that they had Flash Lite was pretty special, but then again that was Android 1.5. I guess I somehow missed the memo on Flash lite being standard as of 2.1.
[Fascinate General] Anderdroid:
That is Flash Lite 3.0 which supports a LOT actually. Even then, you can install flash 10.1 on it. search xda flash on 2.1 on google

Hello,

I have some problems with TB- when try to restore batch or single apk it is saying "restore in progress" and keeps stuck like this until I press home button. When trying to restore batch apk's the progress bar is staying on 0% and the solution is the same- hitting home key. After this I have to close TB from Task manager. Someone with any advises?

[Android Software Development] Azhturion:
Hi i was wondering if there is some application to convert a java application to android. There is a webpage that does that but it doesnt work at all...any suggestion??
[Android Software Development] PoTi_96:
I think it's impossible (or?)

'cause an .apk file is a .zip folder....
[Android Software Development] Azhturion:
Mmm so what do you suggest to convert??
[Android Software Development] britoso:
Have you tried NetMite?
[Android Software Development] Whoareyou:
Well my Tamagotchi Apps for android are the original .jar apps that I converted to .apk, give me a minuet and ill give u a link, ps u need bothe the .jar and .jad

*edit*http://www.netmite.com/android/srv/2.0/getapk.php after conversion and resize and instalation, download j2me runner from the market to use it

Sent from my HTC Espresso, that is apperantly a failing device using the XDA App

[Droid 2 Android Development] kjik:
Uh... It said it installed and stuff so I rebooted, but it been on the Moto logo for more than 20 minutes now. Is something wrong or should I keep waiting?
[Droid 2 Android Development] zibrah3ed:
Pull battery and reboot. Rebootstrap and boot to recovery. You most likely forgot to mount system before flashing.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Juanito_08:
If for any reason I needed to go back to stock do I just do a recovery?
[Droid 2 Android Development] darkonion:
Yeah. Just boot back up in recovery, choose back up and restore, then backup, and choose a back up. In order to restore to a back up, you would have previously had made a back up.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Juanito_08:
Thanks! Just wanted to make sure, im all backed up and ready to go. But now I can't decide Epic or Tranquility? Mmmm

[Vibrant General] nikmash232:
Hey my samsung vibrant that I just bought off of craigslist says Too many pattern attempts! and it says to unlock, sign in with your google account. I didn't steal this phone but I was wondering how I would get rid of this message.

Thanks

nikmash232
[Vibrant General] ld006:
you can't unless you know the google account currently tied to that phone, if all else fails you can always flash it but its gonna be kind of hard
[Vibrant General] nikmash232:
How can I flash it? Thats the only option i have now anyways just wondering how because I can't exactly access anything on the phone. Is there anyway I can access the internal memory so I can put a Update.zip in there
[Vibrant General] ld006:
never really tried to flash a secured-screen locked phone but im sure its possible
[Vibrant General] Genesis1791:
You would have to flash it using Odin, thats assuming you can get into download mode using the volume keys. Do a search to find Odin images and instructions. If your phone is hardware locked out of download and recovery mode you're SOL.
[Vibrant General] nikmash232:
yeah i can get into recovery mode but havent tried download mode yet...i just saw the tutorial for odin and im downloading hte stuff for it now..university connection sucks.
[Vibrant General] skater4690:
well if you can get to recovery just choose the delete data option or whichever it is and reboot and there should be no more lock, but if there is then you would have to use odin...
[Vibrant General] Genesis1791:
I would say tether your phone since it would be faster most likely, but you cant lol.
[Vibrant General] skater4690:
lol i just really laughed at this :D
[Vibrant General] nikmash232:
yeah i tried the delete data option didnt work out..i guess odin is my last option i hope it works or there goes $240 down the drain
[Vibrant General] Genesis1791:
It works, I walked someone through the process before and it worked perfectly fine for him so don't worry and this phones practically impossible to brick so don't worry if Odin messes up on you the first time (happens often).
[Vibrant General] skater4690:
ok i have one question... why would you spend $240 on a phone with a password? did you not play with it to see if it worked before you bought it? and odin should work theres no lock on dl mode and heres a tip turn the phone off have the usb plugged into the computer hold the volume buttons then plug the phone in and it should put you strait into dl mode. idk if its volume down or both volume buttons but that should work for you perfectly it does for me everytime
[Vibrant General] kanwal236:
although i only just got my phone 2 days ago myself, i can say, if you flash via odin, it'll fix everything lol

i had a problem with a pink keyboard mod i couldn't get rid of without flashing, it was annoyingly bright

and man, if you're getting this phone for $240, i wouldn't care if it has the password on it, that's a damm good deal, i paid 350 for mine x-x

anyway, on topic, I couldn't find the original OEM firmware to flash, but i saw there was a leaked firmware on the vibrant forums, and I can say that it works perfectly fine, just use the thread that has the download link to the "All in one" package, that includes odin and the instructions are on the thread.

really simple, and takes 5mins, and congratz on a sexy new phone ;)
[Vibrant General] gastroman:
I have the same problem with my Samsung Vibrant. Were you able to fix it?
[Vibrant General] Chalup:
Great... another thread helping both those who steal and those who buy stolen Vibrants.
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
Yea, this thread is pretty stupid.

Locks are only an issue for hardware locked devices, and hardly any exist anymore...

Just factory reset the damn thing from the recovery menu and enjoy you phone.

The person you got the phone from probably stole it or found it, anyways, and that's probably why it was sold.
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
Unless you can prove it, keep your mouth shut.

If he brought the phone, even if it was stolen, he deserves to use it - IMO.
[Vibrant General] ZX3ZX4:
I will have to say that the first thought that crossed my mind is that the legitimate owner would not be selling a pattern locked phone. And the law typically doesn't support the view that you deserve to keep stolen goods if you purchased them unknowingly.

I'm not making accusations and not trying to pick a fight. Just putting in my 2 cents on the situational ethics here...
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
Custom ROM developers violate Copyrights and IP laws all the time here, and people like you have no issues with it. So much for ethics.

No sane person will throw a phone away just because they mistakenly purchased a stolen device.

People who don't their stolen phones to be usable can do themselves a favor and go to a CDMA carrier.

The community is here to help, not judge, and the pattern lock bug can happen to any legit owner, so the information garnered from this thread can help those people as well. Don't pollute it.

[Vibrant General] reuthermonkey:
"keep your mouth shut"? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Wow this forum really is becoming a cesspool of vermin. Idiots. Thieves. And idiots defending the thieves.
[Vibrant General] trunkstar1:
And im sure none of you good samaritans have any .mp3s of songs where you paid the artist, producers and studios zilch. Whatever. This is a forum of hackers, get over it or you're in the wrong scene. Respectfully, imho.

Vibrant, NeroV3, JL5, Voodoo...
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
Yes. If you cannot prove anyone is a thief, you should shut up and avoid insinuating them as such. It's not cool.

I think that's about as ethical as NOT condoning thievery. At least in the civilized world, it is...
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Exactly, even if the phone IS stolen, the guy here claims he bought it.

Which gives him all rights to do whatever with his phone
[Vibrant General] ZX3ZX4:
Wow...I'm dazzled at the range of opinion about what constitutes ethics and rights. And the assertion that this is a forum of hackers where conventional ethics don't apply. Thanks for enlightening me...
[Vibrant General] pulser_g2:
Come one folks... There's no need for big arguments about something like this.

Whatever your views, the legal situation on it is clear for most countries. There isn't any indication this device is stolen, but bear in mind that the "correct" way to get round the pattern lock is to wipe the device. There should be a hardware key combination to do this (I've had to do it to an SGS before for a friend), which will wipe /data and remove all the user data, as well as clearing the pattern lock.
[Vibrant General] robertd0619:
Bought my 2nd vibrant of off ebay a few days ago from a legit company. I asked them why was it locked (security/pattern lock)? They said the owner forgot the lock and gmail and just traded the phone for something else. I'm assuming it might be like a pawnshop. Meaning they have to go provide proof that they own the phone before they can make the transaction. So doesn't mean it's stolen just because it was locked like that.

Got mine for $180 bucks.

Deleting all user data and cache didn't work so i just odined to eugenes stock 2.2 froyo, then nero v3. Got me a nice cheap vibrant to play with. ;)
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
None needs to prove it if it is stolen or not.

These are public forums and do not require you to be a member to see the information.

These kind of threads should be treated with caution, and I don't care if you've been a member here since the beginning of the times or just joined.

I hope mod close it and remove it.

Hi,

I am unable to install custom Rom using the Rom manager. Whenever I select a Rom from Rom manager it restarts and take me to the restart menu but I don't see any option to run/install Rom
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
try flashing without using rom manager. Download the rom you want to flash (either through rom manager, or by a direct link) and put it on your sdcard. Power off your phone, then power it back on while pressing down the volume at the same time. Wipe what you need to wipe, then flash zip from sdcard.

as a rule, I only really use rom manager to download roms (if that) - not to flash them.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ken101:
I just did what you wrote and it worked thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
I found out today you can only assign a custom ringtone to a contact in the "Phone" section of the phone book. SO I did my export google contacts to CSV and import them into the on line ATT addressbook trick to get them into my "Phone" Phonebook. With me so far?

Ok that done I decided to try once again to make the different lists you can set up contain contact info WITH pictures. I have every contact in my phone and I am using Google and facebook information. All contacts in the "Phone" section of the contact app are Linked to their Facebook and/or Google Counterparts.

Easy.

Now here's the stupid problem. My address GROUPS still look like THIS:

In "Contacts" View the entries all have pictures.

In "Groups" View NO pictures.

Can anyone else duplicate this? I have two weeks to determine if there's something wrong with my phone before my 30 days are up.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphadog00:
Fyi you can export contacts using the phone app to csv on sd card then import them right back into "phone" to create the links.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphadog00:
My Google contacts with pics have pics when added to family. I don't sync Facebook.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhiannon224:
Gunny, I'm having the same problem, I thought it was from SRE 1.2.3 or the lagfix or flashing too many times with Odin, lol.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
I reverted back to total stock. Still having the problem.

I tred the export vcf thing but I get a parse error when trying to re-import them.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhiannon224:
That blows, I did a reinstall of a Nandroid Backup of a previous version of SRE last night after I used the SRE with death sleep, lol, and everything was synced and then after an hour the pictures and FB links disapeared. Now, my phone has been unplugged for 4 hours and the battery only lost 1%. These phones are wacky, but I love them.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
If anyone else has this problem and wants to fix it, I found a solution.

Go to Android Market and install Contacts GroupU. Its a free contacts manager that integrates to your built in address book. Create your groups there and they show up in the Stock Contacts app with pictures intact.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhiannon224:
Thanks for that, I will give it a try.

Hey guys sometimes my evo will start to lag really bad and I found the cause to be sense using insane cpu. Does this ever happen to anyone else? I really love sense

and would hate to give it up for this reason. Tired multiple roms and all have this issue. Currently running latest fresh with baked snacks number 5 kernel.
[EVO 4G General] driguez:
Have you tried a sense less rom? I deleted Rosie along other apks and running launcher pro, I don't have that issue w my current set up, virus rom btw.
[EVO 4G General] AvatarOfFrost:
" Oh this is terrible! Sense is garbage! I rooted my EVO and loaded a bunch of UNOFFICIAL software on it and now it really sucks! Stupid Sense! "

Give me a break! :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] bharris25:
Sense time fine on my unrooted stock Evo with 2.2
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
Pro-tip: Rosie (the Sense launcher) sucks ass.
[EVO 4G General] SantaClause88:
I thought about it being other software but don't see how that can cause sense to take up CPU because I assumed the other programs would see the CPU time instead of sense. It doesn't happen all the time but it does happen occasionally and also if i reboot it seems to fix the problem
[EVO 4G General] driguez:
How are you monitoring this? System Panel?
[EVO 4G General] Leukay:
Pro-tip: That is an opinion. Not a fact. In fact, it's not even an opinion. It's a false statement. Had you worded it "I do not prefer to use Rosie (the Sense launcher)" it would have been an opinion. Therefore, your post is completely useless.

To the OP, try wiping and starting over. Fresh rom is based off of a later OTA that uses a newer kernel than the baked snack kernels. I would recommend using baked snack 1.7 rom. That is my current favorite Sense rom. Check that out, and pm me if you want it to look like Fresh rom or stock sense
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
No, Rosie has less features, no customization, and uses more resources than the quality alternatives (ADW and LauncherPro). Those are solid facts, and I stand by my original statement that Rosie blows.
[EVO 4G General] SantaClause88:
Switched to virus rom with sense currently the problem has gone away.
[EVO 4G General] SantaClause88:
Problem is returned. Sense is also draining most of my battery according to system monitor. I have tried virus fresh Calkulin and am currently on myn warm twopointtwo.

Any ideas as to what could be causing this?
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
Probably HTC's shoddy coding. I'm probably going to get flamed by the HTC/Sense fanyboys but AOSP/stock is the only way to go.
[EVO 4G General] SantaClause88:
Is there a way to get the HTC widgets on a non sense rom? My main reason for not switching over. Im downloading vaelpak as of right now ill try it out and see how it goes.
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
Cm6 > sense
[EVO 4G General] SantaClause88:
Cm6 = no 4G.
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
this may not be a sense vs cm issue at all. It's happening with multiple sense roms, and you use sense widgets. Maybe that's the issue. Don't use the widgets and see if it still happens. Use systempanel and find out what's using the cpu.

Sent from my blah blah blah blah

Edit - try an app called watchdog task manager lite. It can be set to alert you when your cpu usage hits certain levels, and tell you what's causing it.
[EVO 4G General] MaliciousOne:
Why so many cm6 fanbois?

The whole point of the evo is the 4g. You guys shoulda just got an hd2 for half the price.

Sent from hell using XDA app
[EVO 4G General] stangdriverdoug:
Cm6 is a blazing fast rom....and sense has about 80mb of bloat in their rom. But 4g, hdmi, and fm radio are important features that set our phones apart. I think cyanogen is getting 4g in his area any day now and I think he's going to start working on our phones again. At least I hope.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
I had a 2-3 key reasons for getting the EVO (I already have a iPhone 4), and WiMax/4G tethering was one of them. I've been using CM6 stable since it's release. That is all.
