[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] houzuoguo:
you're correct ;) this is wrong section for your question hihi~

as far as I know, you might be able to use Titanium Backup to back up all applications, including few of system settings, it's available as free software in Market.

Every CM release introduces new features, so it might not be practical to back up all settings, since they may change in newer release.

I think I've heard of people who upgraded from CM 6 RC3 to CM6 Stable by flashing zip in recovery and had no problem... so you might like to try this way.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkrmec:
hmm.. dude.. you have no idea what you are doing..

Download the update via ROM Manager when it's downloaded a dialog appears. Click backup ROM and only that! no need to wipe. Click ok, wait for it to install... and that is it... no need to do anything else.

As for your backup restore.. ofcourse it goes back to RC3.. you restored te whole RC3 backup image.. that deletes the current system...

when you're upgrading from RC3 to final CM6 your settings apps all of it will stay if you don't wipe and it should work ok.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harrispo:
When I upgrade, the settings don't stay the same

For example, I set it to have 7 home screens and only 4 icons per row on the application drawer; when I upgrade, it goes back to whatever it would be normally
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samir5421:
thats probably because you wiped.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
If you restore to your RC3 backup you can go into settings > ADWLauncher > Backup and restore > backup ADW settings and Backup desktop configuration. Now upgrade to the stable release with no wipe. If your home screens don't survive, then first make sure all the same apps are installed and then restore the ADW backup the same way. The only things that won't make the trip are your widgets, which you'll have to re-add.

Fixed the problem got a new one
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Mine clips in fine but is a little less flush than the bottom of the back cover, but it definitely closes properly. Picture(s) perhaps?
[Desire General] ziggary:
What I mean is that it closes fully but if u check on the phone 10-20 mins later it comes out about 2mm...

A simple soft push clicks back in but the process repeats its self...
[Desire General] ziggary:
Pics are bellow. First pics has the little 2mm gap that happens and second is when u push it in (it does go flat flash when u push it back in).
[Desire General] aindow:
This happened to my Desire too. Simple solution, add a small drop of glue to the clip that keeps coming out. Obviously add the glue to the clip on the cover and allow to dry before putting it back on the phone!
[Desire General] Tander_ZA:
How old is your Desire?

I have had mine just over a month or so - and do not have this issue - my back cover sits flush with the phone.
[Desire General] ziggary:
2 Weeks old
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Should always leave the original issue as this now makes the thread pointless as replies are to nothing...
[Desire General] vpraveenis:
And someone else who encounters the same problem at a later date can just search and find the solution rather than opening up a new thread.

Leave the original post as it is and just add an edit message saying it is fixed(or updating the thread title is fine too).
[Desire General] aindow:
How did you fix it? Thread fail.
[Desire General] Tander_ZA:
He bought a new one. By that, we don't even know if he meant phone or the back cover.

Seriously pathetic when people do this. Leave the original post for everyone else to see!

Hi!

Is there any way to obtain Friend Stream for Azure Rom?
[Legend Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
It'll require HTC proprietary framework stuff I imagine, so no. It ain't gonna happen.

If you use launcher pro (instead of ADW) then buy launcher pro plus and you'll get some extremely good widgets.
[Legend Android Development] yrref:
Alright, that seems like a good idea then!

Could you maybe point me in the right direction for some of them?

Many thanks!
[Legend Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Well launcher pro plus comes bundled with them.

As for standalone widgets you'll have to google for it.

yrref even i wanted friendsteam so tht i can sync fb with my contacts on azure rom... I just miss tht thing in azure :( . Guess we have to w8 for the official 2.2 sense froyo from htc. i heard its 18-19th sept. i read this on some forum topic with proof on twitter.i dont have the links sorry . :)
[Legend Android Development] yrref:
Wow! Just got it and I'm impressed! Thanks for the tip!
[Legend Android Development] xcrew:
you can sync with facebook in azure. just download the oficial facebook app, log in and its done. you can set it upp in "accounts". also longpress a contact, select "edit contact", press meny and then "join" if you wish to join a phone contact with a facebook one.

launcherpro will release a friendstream widget for plus users this week i think. well worth the money to buy the app. its far better than ADW imo.
[Legend Android Development] dhanu007:
dont u think i must have tried tht xcrew..it doesnt sync contacts for sure.. not even in the Neon Mod 0.21 m on currently :(
[Legend Android Development] xcrew:
well thats all i didnt... on a freshly installed azure mod facebook contacts wont sync. All i did was install facebook and it apered in "settings/accounts and sync". In that menu i just checked "auto-sync" and my contacts automaticly synced with facebook. this was the first thing i did after a fresh install of azure. If i can sync, you guys must be able to, just gotta do the right things ;)

to make sure we have the same facebook app, im using "facbook for android" version 1.3.2

EDIT: i have no idea why my post became two, and apparently i cant delete it.

Hi,

Im using a Samsung I9000 and when Im saving a new contact the phone always asks where it have to be saved:

Phone

Sim Card

gmail account

youtube account

Im few new to android and I tough every contact on my phone is also on my gamil account is this right?

When Im selecting phone will this contac be synced with gmail or not?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] timehunter:
Actually, you can choose to save your contact in one of several different "places". For instance, if you use Gmail for contact management, you would save your contacts to Google contact type.

However, there are many other information management applications and sites. Many people use Outlook or another computer based PIM application, and use that to sync contacts to the phone. These would be put in the Phone contact type.

Since you are using a GSM based phone, you can also save new contacts as a SIM contact type. Note that SIM contact types have some limitations compared to the others as far as how many phone numbers, email addresses, etc. can be saved per contact.

You say you are new to Android, but is this your first smart phone? In other words, how did you get your contacts on the phone in the first place, or are you just adding them now?

If this is your first smart phone and you are just adding the contacts, as long as you are ok with Google having all that information, then save them as a Google contact type. The point of that is so if you loose your phone, or it is damaged or otherwise, you still have the data backed up and can get it to another phone. In fact, if you are using Gmail to manage your contacts, just log into Gmail on a computer and enter all the contacts that way. It will be easier and faster and they will sync to your phone automatically.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] audino:
Hi,

thank you very very much you helped me a lot!!!

This isnt my fist smart phon, before I had many many WM Phones and synced with outlook which I would prefer but as I bought my i9000 they told me it wont work and I ve to transfer my contacts to google to get them synced...

I think Ill switch back from that because I dont like to hafe google my contacs and if it works with outlook its much easier for me!

Thanks a lot

Hey guys,

i was trying to root the Desire of my uncle, it is a german TMobile branded device with HBoot 0.75.

I used the instructions of the third post in this thread

After that i bricked the display i dont know why. The i tried to unbrick the display using the instrunctions of this thread

Now i have a Desire that does nothing, no vibration, my computer don't recognise it when i plug in the usb plug, the phone seems dead. The only thing the phone is doing is when it charges the battery, the orange/green leds are blinkng.

Is the phone dead, or can it be recovered in some way?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mountnorth:
Unbrick a SLCD is very painful - had to do this myself. The instructions to unbrick are correct. The problem is blind navigating through the Bootloader menu. Sometimes its not responding to Vol-Up or Down at all - so you can't say if you really got to the right point at the Bootloader menu.

Hardest thing for me was to get into Recovery at all. Just give your phone 10s minimum between all steps.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nzdcoy:
re: blinking: are they on, or actually blinking? when mine is charging I have a solid orange and when it is 100% I have a solid green LED.

Could it be a USB brick and a SLCD brick at the same time?

Have you tried to get the computer to recognise it in either fastboot or recovery mode?

plug it into the computer (turned off)
vol down+power=bootloader. was there a *ding*?
if not, press power again. you should be in fastboot now. any ding now?
if not, press power again (back to bootloader), wait ~10 seconds, press vol down, then power. you should now be in the recovery screen that would usually have a red exclamation mark in it. any luck with the *ding*?

if there is a *ding* coming from your computer then it can still be accessed from the PC and therefore should a ~relatively~ straightforward fix.

its to do with the fastboot etc having to load the pm99.img files, and that takes ~10-15 seconds. the phone won't respond before it loads these in the bootloader.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m0rph3us:
When it is charging the red led is permanet on, when it has fully charged the green led is on.

No *dings* no matter what i do.

Any other suggestion?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nzdcoy:
red? I didn't know the desire had a red LED, it certainly doesnt show up in a logcat on the blinker app.

do the keys light up when attempting to turn it on?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m0rph3us:
Sorry i mean the orange led.

When i try to turn it on nothing happens, no vibration, no key lights. The only thing that happen is the orange led turns off.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nzdcoy:
Unfortunately I don't know how much more help I could be.

all I could suggest is trying to flash said fixes completely blindly again in hopes you screwed it up the first time (using a MicroSD card adaptor to put necessary files on the card).

I guess the next option is to try at Modaco if you haven't already, or see if T-Mob can replace (whether or not you tell them the full story is up to you)

sorry I couldn't be more help :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m0rph3us:

all,

don't really know how I got here, but I don't like it at all ... :mad:

I can get into recovery mode as always (clockwork 2.5.0.1) and flash any new ROM I pick up here. but whenever I reboot, my phone is stuck at the white HTC boot screen (I waited up to 2 hours just to be sure it's not my impatience).

I wiped everything (factory reset, cache, dalvik) at least 5 times each. I flashed the latest OD, DeFrost, and Neo ROMs a few times. but whenever I try to reboot, my phone stays forever on that initial white screen with HTC in the middle.

a Nandroid restore of a previously working configuration ends up at exactly the same place!

getting a later version of clockwork seems rasonable? but how do I update that w/o booting up to run RomManager (asked the noob :confused:)?

any ideas or suggestions how to fix this?

A little background, my phone is in a brand new shape with SLCD Brick.

I am thinking of flashing clockwork recovery via fastboot and then booting into it so that I can access ADB to make a goldcard, the question is can I do that? I can't see anything on the phone so I cannot enable the USB debugging mode.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
You can't flash that via fastboot. You will need to flash an RUU, so you'll have to make a goldcard on another phone or enable USB debugging without the screen working.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragooon123:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragooon123:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
You'll need to enable USB debugging without the screen working in that case. There are some instructions in other threads (search for SLCD brick).

The tutorials for 2.2 involve downgrading to 2.1 using a method that breaks the screen and then enabling USB debugging. You just need to follow those second steps.

Morning, Fellow Forumers!

I've been using my HD2 for a few months now, and every day my frustration grows. This thing is unstable as hell. It either stops responding completely, or the phone application hangs (sometimes it's impossible to hang up a call), or just the backlight works, or the UMTS stops working... PAIN AND MISERY! I have it upgraded to the latest official firmware, but it doesn't help at all. Tried the Touch Tools to turn off unneccesary stuff - still no good.

It's even worse when it's BT'd to my Audi MMI. Every 10 seconds or so it's completely stuck for like 2-3 seconds. It looks like the BT firmware has not been optimized at all and whenever it refreshes the phonebook/calls list/etc with my car, the GUI is dead. Fixing that would be great stuff.

So, I'm asking to point me in the right direction. I don't care about warranty or anything, just want this device to be stable! Since the official FAQ is like 10 pages long... is there a FAQ's FAQ? :-)

Basically - what's my first step? Thanks in advance!
