[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Butzacooky:
try updating the radio (check 3rd post in the slide rom bible; its the 8-5-10 one), that might work

there is also a new OTA coming up so there might be a new radio with that.

to flash radio... dload and put into sd card. boot into clockwork. DO A NANDROID BACKUP. then "apply to sd card". install zip from sd. click the zip for radio. install and reboot. there'll be an awkward image before reboot (normal).

also, next time PLEASE use the Q&A section.

Hi all,

I asked this in Q&A and got no response so I hope it's OK to ask here...

I have a lot of quick contacts and after upgrading to froyo, they now have a speech bubble overlay on the icon that I'd like to disable/hide. What's the easiest way to go about hiding it?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revlis240:
im curious as well. I restored my screen on Launcher pro and the icons i restored dont have any overlay but any new icon i add has one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] negativefx:
I'd think it'd be easy as finding that overlay graphic and replacing it with a blank one, but I don't know how to do this.
[Fascinate General] CNemo7539:
Hello friends!

I would like to purchase Samsung Fascinate for wife. However I a little bit concerned about couple of details.

1. I know it has 2Gb memory. Is this enough these days? I mean other phones have way more, but is this really crucial? Do apps and their data installed in phone memory? What is average size of your collection?

2. I know it has Bing and I guess it sucks big time. Is this hackable? In my understanding Fascinate is not protected from rom flashing. But I have no idea how android integrates such stuff.

Overall what would you suggest - Fascinate or Incredible. Size really does matter in this case. I relly like Fascinate, but still hesitate to pull trigger.
[Fascinate General] emplox:
I got my Fascinate today. I came from an Incredible. I must say....i absolutely love this device. In my opinion, it beats the Inc on all levels with the exception of Bing and widgets. I actually don't mind TouchWiz either. The speed and screen on this phone is awesome. 2Gb is enough, and when Froyo is available you can install all the apps to your SD card and it really won't be an issue at that point. This phone will be easily 'hackable' and you will definitely be able to install custom roms and remove Bing in the near future.

My suggestion would be to absolutely get the Fascinate over the Incredible.
[Fascinate General] vaxick:
2gb is more than enough. Nobody really every struggled with older Android phones that came with only 512mb of memory. In 2.1 and below, only a certain amount of data needs to be installed on the phone and the rest can be installed on the SD card. It was never really much of a issue with Android since the beginning.
[Fascinate General] bblanski:
Had the incredible and droid x and I love this phone more than both already...
[Fascinate General] CNemo7539:
Thanks for response, guys!

How about GPS? Do you have any problems with this?
[Fascinate General] mrmomoman:
It's a hit or miss with people. I just configured 8 Fascinates the same and 6 hooked up to the GPS quickly and two would not.

My personal one they gave me to help them had issues until I rebooted.

I have no use for another Phone I have too many. Now if ONLY SIM was a standard on all phones right now I would be one happy camper. I would have a different phone for each day of the week :)
[General Questions and Answers] TheAlmightyDrew:
I am sorry if this has been posted and answered already. I am trying to get the Droid X keyboard on my Fascinate. I have put the apk file on my SD card. I plug my Fascinate from my Macbook Pro, and go into Astro File Manager. I click on the apk file, open it, and it says "Uninstall" and "Launch". When I click uninstall, it begins to do so then it says "Uninstall was not successful." When I click launch, it says "Activity was not found." It doesn't give me a choice to install the apk file. Then I try with Apps Installer, when I click it it says "Application Not Installed."

So basically I can install apk files on my Samsung Fascinate. I have also made sure to download the apk file that is for Android phones running 2.1 Eclair. I also tried this with the Samsung Keypad that is the standard keypad that is on all the Galaxy S phones (go to Youtube and search "Samsung Captivate keyboard options"...it is the keyboard shown 0:20 to 0:53) but for some reason it isn't on the Fascinate. I love that keyboard so I am trying to get it on the Fascinate but that is also not working.

Can someone help please?
[General Questions and Answers] ludeboy:
You can't because the stock Android keyboard is also called LatinIME.apk. Delete/rename LatinIME.apk and LatinIME.odex in /system/app and then install the apk you downloaded. The Droid X keyboard on the fascinate is way better than the stock keyboard and swype!

[Epic 4G Accessories] NeonMonster:
As one of the many people here that had/is having issues with finding the RIGHT case for their precious Epic 4G, due to the limited selection of quality cases, I decided to look into Golla pouches.

Golla has a line of product called SMART pouches, are designed to hold your phone, plus headphones or maybe some cash or cards in the back.

The case has velcro to close the pouch, and additional smaller pocket in the front, and in the back of the pouch a small zippered compartment. There is a belt loop on the back and a carabiner clip to clip to belt loops or purses or whatever.

Review: These SMART pouches retail for about 16-20 dollars, but are easily found on ebay anywhere from 7-10 dollars shipped. I paid $9.99 with freeshipping which I consider very reasonable.

I got the Golla Smart Hasty bag, which is made from a Canvas/denim exterior and a polyester interior. First thoughts, were that the bag quality is MUCH nicer than what I was expecting. In pictures and video reviews of the Golla bags, they tend to look lightweight and not very sturdy, but this bag is VERY nice.

I work at a theatre designing/sewing costumes for productions, so I pay attention to fabric/production quality and I was thinking this pouch wouldn't be that great of quality build/stitching wise, but was pleasantly surprised! The pouch feels like it could go through lots of usage and not be damaged! And the attention to small details through the pouch is very nice. The design on the front/inside is very detailed and very subtle!

The inside padding isn't very thick, so this pouch won't protect from heavy falls or other types of heavy damage, but its very easy to put/remove the Epic from the pouch! The Epic sticks out about 1/4-3/8s of a inch out of the top of the pouch. but it doesn't affect the ability of the velcro to close. It hangs very conveniently from my belt, and its very easy to access all of the pockets on the pouch!

Overall, i'm very happy with the pouch, and will be using it daily until a better quality case comes out for the Epic!

[Epic 4G Accessories] ImSoHungry:
I'm glad you like it, and thanks for the review. I am a case/clip/pouch/bag junkie, I mean horribad. I went through maybe 15-20 case during my iphone days, 10 during the blackberry phase, 3 with my nexus and 3 already for my epic. I had the same one from Golla as you in Orange and grey and gave it to my mother for her vibrant and I ordered the Golla Gavin Wallet. Ill do a review and post it here for Epic owners, however someone has gotten one and posted a review from an Evo perspective.

I'm the same way myself.....I actually came across golla bags not to long ago but never gave them a shot. perhaps after reading this i shall.
[Epic 4G Accessories] NeonMonster:
Whenever I get dressed in the morning, I slide the golla pouch on my belt. Its actually really handy. It leaves my pockets free to put my keys or whatever in, and I'm not worrying if my phones in my pocket or not. :p

I also keep a tiny MicroSD reader, and my headphones in the back of the pouch. :)
[Epic 4G Accessories] playcs:
is it an extremely tight fit? or will it support a future extended battery and such.
[Epic 4G Accessories] playcs:

[Epic 4G Accessories] NeonMonster:
Hello! :) I got my Golla case from this seller for 9.99 with free shipping:

BEWARE that not ALL of the Golla bags are GOLLA SMART which are the size that fits the Epic. You might have to do some research on the Golla website to make sure that the style you are getting is one of the SMART line.

[Streak 5 General] Johny1fin:
Have you looked in settings/accounts and sync under manage accounts ther should be gmail sync. select that and ther should be 3 tabs for contacts, mail and calendar. make sure all are selected. toggling any off then on will do an immedite sync.

Don't know about exchange as I don't use it. does that show as well?

I have under manage accounts - pc sync which works, google which works and twitter which does not work on contacts. comes up with a sync error.
[Streak 5 General] nkamurlekar:
have you tried to compose email using exchange activesync... there is no option to select GAL..... man dell sucks

exchange cal sync is only available in 2.2

I have ClockworkMod recovery 2.5.0.1 and Cyanogen 6 nightlies on my Aria and have a couple of questions. First what is the latest ClockworkMod for the Aria? In rom manager it says 2.5.0.1, but on their website it says version 3.14 comes with 2.5.0.7.

My second question has to do with doing a nandroid backup with ClockworkMod. I have my sdcard partitioned with an ext4 partition and can move apps to the sd card, but during a nandroid backup it can't mount and backup sd-ext. Is this normal or do I have something wrong?

Thanks

I need to chmod one of the devices under /dev so it can be accessed by java app.

One way is that I have to root the phone, and run chmod from java every time after boot.

Another way is, I can put it into the init.rc file. But I will need to unpack the boot image, and repack it, then flash it back to the phone. Is there a tool I can use to easily do this job? And is there a better way?

What is ClockworkMod Recovery and what is Stock Recovery?

Please explain in simple terms, benefits, possible uses?

What is Nandroid? Is Nandroid same as ClockworkMod Recovery? or Stock Recovery?

thank you
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speoples20:
Stock recovery is just that, stock comes loaded on the phone. Allows you to wipe the phone and flash official updates.

ClockworkMod Recovery is a custom recovery that allows you to do more. First you need to root your phone then you can flash it. With Clockwork you can flash custom roms and do nandroid back ups. Nandroid backups basically back up you phone, so if you have to wipe your phone or flash something unstable you can revert back to a stable point on your phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csci1000:
That helps...would you please explain below? This is in reference to ROM manager application from Market I downloaded.

I have question though on restoring to "stock".

Let's suppose I have screwed up and can't start my phone for whatever reason, so that I won't have access to "ROM Manager" application, correct? In that case, how do I "Reboot into Recovery"? I am confused here...

When I reboot using POWER KEY and VOLUME UP key, options I see are very limited and I don't see Nandroid there, so how exactly would I able to restore from my Nandroid images?

Basically if I am hard down, can't even get to home screen, how can I restore my phone from mybackups? I think I am having small gap in my understand! :D

thank you so much!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eweo911:
When you install clockwordmod recovery, it installs a file on your internal SD vs the External SD card. When you enter stock recovery, you would choose "reinstall packages" and that would bring you back into clockworkmod recovery so you can install custom roms, perform a nandroid backup, etc...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SykesAT:
rom manager is made by koush, who also makes clock work recovery.

in rom manager "flash clockworkmod recovery"

Now check your SD card (internal) do you have an "update.zip" file? Is so it probably the zip you used to root the phone, delete it and look inside the clockwork folder. you'll see "recover-update.zip" copy this to the root of your SD card and rename it update.zip.

turn phone off and turn it back on going into recovery... vol up+down and power.

Select 'reinstall package" press power to confirm.

now you are in clockwork recovery and can nadroid restore/backup, install roms etc...

You can do all ^^^ from rom manager also but if you can't get the phone to boot this can a restore or rom flash...

if you truly bugger up your phone you will need to odin a rom. Nandroid will not re flash kernel or radio ODIN will
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csci1000:

2 questions pls.

1) can I make Odin images of my current ROM by myself? and store away on flash drive for future rescue?

2) my Vibrant looks into internal-storage Not microSD card when I try to boot into clockwork recovery. Can I make it to look into microSD card? Do I make some directory or what? how please?

it says like this

--Install from sdcard....

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip

(No such file or directory)

I have tried twice by putting update.zip into root of sd card AND /sdcard/update.zip subfolder. but no luck!

thank you
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
1. Why would you do that? Just do Nandroid backups, its the same thing of what you're asking but so much simpler.

2. Clockwork is built to look at internal, it's good. Just drop the things you flash into the root of your internal. Internal is built in 12GB. It will always be the internal.

Are you sure its "update.zip" and not update.zip.zip?
