[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dbh369:
My understanding of the differences is that especially on upload PPP will be faster. PPP though is a bit finicky as to radio rom chosen and other particulars of your build. In most cases, changing the rootfs file will indeed change the connection type.

I also found that while PPP worked at home, it would cause a crash everytime in Atlantic City. So if you go with a PPP build, keep a backup rootfs with RMNET on your sd card in case you run into trouble.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TonyCubed:
I think the answer to the question is a little complicated and I could be wrong by saying this but...

RMNET is what Google use for Android to connect to the internet. Android phones are designed around this protocol and the WinCE phones have trouble with RMNET for that reason i.e. RMNET was tailored towards Android based phones and not WinCE phones that now have Android.

PPP is what WinMo uses to connect to the internet, and the reason it's flaky is because it's implementation is still being worked apon.

Linux uses PPP and all the devs are doing is porting it over to Android.

RMNET is just as fast as PPP, but on Android devices.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Comsat:
How specific is a rootfs file to a build. I used FroyoStone V2 with a RMNET rootfs (PPP does not work for me). Changing to FroyoStone 3.1 I have the same problem with PPP but Android does not start with the RMNET rootfs of V2. DarkStone says in his readme that it is only PPP, which let me conclude it is build specific (maybe EVO kernel vs Desire kernal?)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] endGameXIII:
ditto. the latest froyostone build (PPP) doesn't work for me either. on the previous build, i had the same problem, but somehow got it to go away by switching to rmnet and then back to ppp. since now it's not an option, i'm kinda bummed. i wonder if it's a problem specific to TMOUS HD2's?

+1. And when you do search for something, all you find is threads telling other people to do a search, rather than taking 5 seconds more to explain.

I know its infuriating having to explain to people time after time, but when a lot of these developers learnt it, all those years ago, it was thanks to other people helping them out. That and there were a hell of a lot fewer people out there- mostly only those with technical experience, and those who actively went out and bought hardware to learn on, rather than the enormous numbers of people who can actually now afford a smartphone nowadays... I remember when I was 12, building PCs...

Nevertheless, a good google search should always be the first point of call, and I respect that, but thanks to those who do actually explain something rather than the usual sarcastic "go find out somewhere else."

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Qwenjis:
I guess the given information is out-dated a bit. For e.g. from here:

After some digging I found most kernels use RMNET and sometimes there's an option to switch to PPP.

Personally, I find RMNET good enough - I have very stable and reliable connection.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Narseo:
The difference goes down to the interface between the OS/Kernel and the firmware or MSM. Rmnet and PPP are different interfaces and implementations, with pros and cons but it doesn't have any correlation/dependency with the type of connectivity you're having on the network. It's purely local.

You could out this url to see what rmnet is about in detail: http://tenderloin.bricked.googlecod...04eb44768b/Documentation/usb/gadget_rmnet.txt

Goal: Change the color of "my calendar" from pink to Blue.

I've tried putting an android stock Calendar.apk and deleted the others, but I couldn't get it to work. Is there another way to do this?

Thanks

- KrossXC
[Epic 4G Android Development] KrossXC:
Is there another Calendar APK that will change this? Or can I somehow remove the Pink color in the file-system? or remove the "my calendar" all-together, and keep the google one?

Just want to change the pink!

Change Calendar to new APK

I tried to change this myself, finally gave up, however I did find a good calendar app that I really like in it's place Gemini, very nice indeed.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Mama Luigi:
Unfortunately it seems the "My Calendar" is part of the Samsung calendar app that can't be removed. The best you can do is hide it, but any events you create will still be assigned to the pink My Calendar by default. So whenever you create an event, you have to choose the calendar you want.

The obvious workaround would be to replace the TouchWiz calendar with the stock Android calendar, but I just tried that a little while ago and it didn't work. There may be a way to get it working in the future. Until then I'm just ignoring the My Calendar thing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] CogDancer:
I was able to replace the TouchWiz calendar with the normal Android calendar roughly according to the directions in this thread: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=735035

(Sorry for the crappy link, but I can't do proper links yet.)

I've edited mcb00f's directions slightly and repeated and repeated them here:

Hope that helps!

Edit: Just in case it wasn't clear, the My Calendar calendar and events in it will be deleted along with the TouchWiz calendar app, so if you have anything you want to keep from that calendar, you should back it up accordingly!
[Epic 4G General] KrossXC:
Is there a way to change the color of my "My Calendar" from pink to blue? I know how to change the Google Calendar, but not the default one.

I've been trying to install other calendar.apk's, but maybe I'm missing something simple you can do in the stock OS? Thanks

- KrossXC
[Epic 4G General] KrossXC:
Maybe I can just DELETE the "my calendar" somehow? Any way to do that?

Then I'd just have the google calendar, which I know how to change the color of.

Hello everyone!

I was wondering what are the best pictures/wallpapers to put in our Home Screen?

I just tried some but the final result was always disappointing...

Can you give me some pictures and tipos to make a good homescreen only by changing images...

Thank's!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] benjymous:
If you're using the default S.E. homescreen, then using a PC, resize/crop your images to exactly 480x320 then make sure you don't crop the image further when setting it as wallpaper on the phone (i.e. make sure the handles are dragged out all the way

Also, saving as PNG is often nicer, as you won't get any compression artifacts, that can make the image look ugly on the phone

Here are a couple of wallpapers I've resized to the right format

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrinehart93:
Hey guys

Recently I've gotten into a snafoo. Anytime I flash a new theme, my phone always thinks it's Roaming. I'm running CyanogenMOD 6 RC1, although it happened to me also on the newest nightly (9/6/10). It also says my battery is unknown... ? However I know for a fact my phone is not roaming, and my battery is fine. Any tips? I've checked for graphical errors too in the framework-res.apk files, and it is as it should be.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyouko:
My guess is since its a theme you flash, naturally it will be a modified framework-res.apk, the framework from the theme doesn't match the nightly you are currently running.

eg. You flash the envy froyo theme on 905 when the latest nightly he has a theme for is 828.

Try a theme you can apply just using a metamorph for (gtx or something) see if you still get those errors...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrinehart93:
Nonono, see that's the thing. The theme I'm talking about here is a theme that I made, but I just upped it to the newest version of CM, which is the 9/6/10 nightly. Now whenever I adb push the framework-res.apk file, I get the unknown battery and roaming icon. It's so confusing.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyouko:
Ooohh. I see what you mean now by snafoo :p

On the irc channel I believe a couple people had the same problem ( the question mark battery indicator) and someone responded saying it was something about the language being set incorrectly?? Try wiping and re-flashing your current rom (it may have fixed it for him). then apply the theme see if that helps :/

Hope I'm not completely off base here haha. Hopefully someone else will chime in if that doesn't work...

Funnily enough... My phone just did that too. I was installing Mort Widget and it just totally bricked...

I'm rather p!ssed at this...

Course this was after it deleted all my email accounts and SMS.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] askpcguy:
What you'll need.

Odin (search or look in any of the ROM/Firmware threads, for example the i9000 ROM or unofficial JH2 or JH3 ROM)

Your USB cable.

The firmware files.

Steps:

Remove battery, SIM card and micro SD card.

Open Odin on the computer.

Put the battery back in.

Plug in the USB cable to the phone.

Hold both volume up and down.

With VOL up/down held in, plug usb cable to the computer.

Your phone will show the beloved DOWNLOADING yellow image.

Odin:

Simply select the rom/firmware you want to flash to and enjoy.

I can confirm this will not overwrite the phone's internal 16gb storage, which is where most apps save backups to.

Future steps:

Before trying anything crazy, copy the entire phone internal 16gb storage to your computer. If you brick, you can always get a new captivate, copy the junk back and run a restore.

I recommend Titanium backup (donate the $6, the backup/restore is SUPER SUPER fast) along with Clockwork recovery. Clockwork's Nandroid makes full kernel backups and you can boot to recovery from the phone itself. No more adb reboot download or adb reboot recovery.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boe_dye:
Yes, odin is about your only hope here... Even if you boot into the bios and try to do a factory reset it will come up with error after error...

Reflashing will totally wipe and start fresh.

I am curious however. I think i isolated where my problem came from but I am still curious...

Did you try to sideload anything?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraiko68:
It happened to me twice with Bell's Vibrant version. The first time, just after one week after getting it (not rooted). They simply gave me a brand new one.

The second one took 3 week to go dead. Knowing my way around Linux Embedded systems, this time I investigated the issue. In recovery mode, there were error messages saying that the system could not fine the internal flash memory partitions. I could confirm from the kernel messages that partitions on internal sdcard had disappeared. I did factory reset, reflash original stock firmware with Odin, but it did nothing.

I Sent the phone back for repair and three weeks later, they gave me another one (probably refurbished!!).

i used ODIN to resotore the phont to stock

any help plzzz
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
Does it light up or display anything and then go black, or does it just do nothing? If it does nothing, you're probably bricked, but try this anyway just in case your phone still has some life in it:

open Odin; press and hold both volume buttons and plug in your USB. If Odin lights up yellow, flash.

If that doesn't work, buy or build a jig, use it, and see if it goes into download mode. If it doesn't, plug the cable in anyway and see if Odin recognizes it. If it does, flash.

If that doesn't work, you're probably bricked. JTAG or Unbrickable Mod are your options from here, neither of which I personally know anything about but you can search around and find someone who can help you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
Hard Bricked= No signs of life, black screen no matter what, no response to USB plug in. Nothing but Unbrickable mod or JTAG will fix, I WOULD SUGGEST getting Unbrickable because you only have to get it once, and it cost the same as JTAG.

Soft Bricked= DL mode access is available(by jig or button combo and usb), recovery too, has some life in it. Can use ODIN/HEIMDALL to fix it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isa.ahmed:
when the flashing finsh and say done...and show the green light in the ODIN. the phone did not start up

dose this mean it break or dead charger?

as m not shure if the battery is full or not.

anyway i can pass the battery by over it with cuted USB cable?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
If you got a green light, I would think it should at least turn on. However, if it was a successful flash, it should charge with the phone off. A bricked phone and a bad charger would both look the same: dead.

Try a different charger or battery if you think your battery could that dead. However if your battery died during your flash, that could also be the cause of your brick.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isa.ahmed:
i charge the battery...and nothing happend

will the USB JAG solve it?

as i read in some post this will not

i need to send to some one to do it by opeing the phont it self
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
A jig is worth trying, but I suspect it will not solve your issue. You are correct, you need to send it to someone to have it fixed. Send a PM to AdamOutler or Connexion2005 and they can point you in the right direction.

so now am end with usellss phone..and need to theough away :(

what a waist of mony
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockRatt:
You moto defy never flashed boot loaders since Motorola always had them locked down, and if you didn't know what you were doing flashing the stock Emma's that had boot loaders then it is not the phones fault. You should never really have to flash boot loaders and that is the ONLY risky part in flashing on these phones. Other than that Samsung cappys are almost TRUELY unbrickable (HARD BRICK) unless you mess up flashing boot loaders. WHICH YOU DID WHETHER YOU KNEW IT OR NOT BY FLASHING THE STOCK ODIN. SEND IT FOR UNBRICKABLE MOD, it is cheap repair and you WONT run into your same mistake ever again.

Long time AT&T customer probably switching to Sprint, been eyeing the Epic..

If I get a voice call, is it possible (if I'm using a BT headset or speakerphone) to fire up a web browser on it and use that while I'm in-call? To look things up, or whatever?

If it can't do that, are there any other Sprint phones that can (EVO, for example?)
