[Omnia II Themes and Apps] SoulRaiderX:
So I just picked up this phone for free from one of my friends and I'm having trouble installing themes. Changing the background around seems easy enough and the phone seems to be in good order and shape but I can't get the designer themes(or any theme, really) to work here. I'm running WM 6.5 Professional(CE OS 5.2.21856 (Build 21856.5.0.65)).

I can't really see what I'm doing wrong. I just don't have access to a specific menu. I followed a few basic tutorials on where to go to pick my theme.

I boot up my phone

I press the Start menu button in the top left

I press Settings

Here's where it differentiates from what I've heard of.

Search YouTube for a video titled "Windows Mobile 6.5 Designer Themes" by an account called pocketnowvideo.

If you look at that YouTube video, around 1:15 you can see the guy press Settings in the Start menu and it brings him to a sub-menu while still in the Start menu. For me, it's different here. Granted, he's using an HTC and I'm equipped with an Omnia, but the menu should still be the same if the OS is the same, no?

So anyways, he taps settings and the menu he gets shows some buttons like Bluetooth, Lock, Sounds and Notifications, and Today. That Today is the button I'm looking for but I can't find it.

Instead, my menu isn't a sub-menu; it's an entirely different menu altogether, seperate from the Start menu that's shown in the video. In my Settings menu, I have two tabs: Basic Settings and Advanced Settings. Neither of these two tabs have a button that says "Today", but the Basic Settings tab has a button that says Display and Light. If I tap on it, it has a button that says Theme and it allows me to select my theme in there. There's also another button that says Items on Today but I'll get to that in a bit.

When I select my theme from the themes offered, nothing changes. Literally nothing(well actually, I think once the colour scheme might have changed, but only slightly and that's it). I can change the wallpaper in a different section of the Display and Light menu but the theme doesn't seem to want to budge.

So moving onto Items on Today button, it allows me to enable what items I want to see on the front of today, as well as the choice of enabling or disabling widgets. Except that when I choose the items for today, the items look very boring and not as vivid and vibrant as they do on the designer themes. They're just 10 point Arial font, nothing more.

tl;dr I can't access the proper Settings menu to properly change a theme, how do I do it?

Mine says the same thing. I would also like to know how to correct this. Thanks.

Edit: Looking around the WEB, it seems if you are a former Altell customer and still on an Altell plan (i.e. SmartPak), then that is why it says UNKNOWN.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seanmcd72:
You both posted in the wrong section. But mine says unknown and does not display Verizon wireless due to being on an ALLTEL plan. It doesn't mean anything. You can find a Verizon or a Hybrid Verizon/Alltel PRL file if you want to change it. (google it)
[General Questions and Answers] roguly:
alright so i installed ryanza OCLF from the market. and had no problems with it. today i decided to factory reset my phone, just because i felt like my phone was getting cluttered. and i wanted to start anew anyway. so i factory reset the phone from the settings. and after the phone was done rebooting, i went to install the lag fix again. i rooted the phone and reboot. then i went to install the actual lag fix v1. it was marked in red and would not let me install it. it said u need to install the ext2 files blah blah. so i did that. and when the option to install the lag fix was still in red, i clicked on it and it said. there was already a lag fix installed. somewhere in the playlogos1 file. so what do i do now, can i delete the playlogos1 file? and take in mind that i rooted and installed the ext2 thing all from the OCLF app in the market. please help. thanks guys
[General Questions and Answers] manosv:
I have the exact same problem.Did you solve it?
[General Questions and Answers] Monther Qandeel:
Same here.

Same here.
[General Questions and Answers] Monther Qandeel:
Ended up restoring from a nandroid backup I made immediately after I had installed the OCLF. Removed the lag fix. Now, OCLF allows me to remove the fix and the EXT2 tools.
[General Questions and Answers] pipopipz:
I ended up clicking the restore animation and voila! The similar problem I experienced was solved.
[General Questions and Answers] TheShamsMan:
What did this fix for you specifically? I tried this, and it still told me I had a lagfix installed, when I really didn't.

Has anyone else been able to rectify this without restoring?
[General Questions and Answers] Rallu9:
Same her. Had to flash with odin
[General Questions and Answers] visitador02:
Is it just me? The OCLF has disappeared from the market.

I have to thank RyanZA here for providing that app. It make rooting my Captivate so easy.
[HTC Wings] pandeypankaj:
Hi :

I have a wing which I flashed with Open Touch yesetrday. Don't know what went wrong during flashing, now my mobile is stuck in bootloader 3 color screen.

When I try to flash othr ROM from SD card it says "invalid certioficate" error. Can anyon tell how to flash other ROM from bootloader.

Regards,

pankaj
[HTC Wings] gutek85:
Flashing phone from bootloader mode is realy the same. Just your Wings doesn't connect with AS, but it doesn't matter. Just run RUU and wait for finding your phone...

If your phone is HardSPL, you can flash ANY ROM, but if not - only shipped ROM, dedicated to your phone. Here you can find fiew shipped ROMs for Wings:)

Edit:

Your phone is HTC Wings or Wing??? It's a big difference. This is Wings (HTC S730) forum
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxcrashxx:
or at least not documented in a good place.

heres my long story/adventure for the past 2 days.(the short story is after the break\/ \/ \/)

picked up a "broken" htc dream from craigslist... phone is stuck on rainbow bootloader, so everything online is saying flash the dreaimg.nbh file on the root of a fat32 formatted microsd card. then other info about if it fails. but no info if it completes, and verifies every line and say ok, then do the command to reboot, and it still goes into bootloader... as if the camera button is stuck!! great idea, ill remove my camera button from the main board to test that theory that some ppl can force on you like a religion... phone still started in boot loader mode... with camera button desoldered from the phones main logic board(or whatever the official term for it is) so to the guy who said he didnt care if it felt like the camera button is clicking fine or not, somethings wrong with it, no ifs, ands, and buts about it. you might be wrong....

anyways, i picked up another broken g1, this one with a cracked lcd. the screen was half visible, so i tested to ensure it booted before paying for it. it booted fine and fast, i was in good luck, and the radio was already at 2.xx.xx.xx, so dangerspl wasnt a problem. so i took apart phone two and replaced only the main board in each phone. mainboard 1 in phone 2 boots fine(with camera button desoldered from mainboard), and mainboard 2 in phone 1 goes to the bootloader screen, but will still go into recovery mode with no problem. i then just swapped out the front button board from phone 2, over to phone 1, with phone 1's original mainboard. and it boots perfectly fine. so i have come to the conclusion that the front board is what make it not function properly. i have since upgraded mainboard 1's radio to 2.xx.xx.xx, dangerSPL, cyanogenmod 6, psgroove..... :)

______________Short Story___________________

so i guess what i am saying is if your phone seems like the "camera" button is stuck, cuz the phone isnt bricked due to its other responsiveness(recovery manager), you might need to replace one of these following two items.

This is what i believe to be the main culprit, but i havent tested each peice individually yet, so i could be wrong. and this is the other part that you might consider replacing.

and to prevent a few questions, both of these phones were tmobile US phones, not european or rogers or any other provider one.

That's some good ol' fashioned trouble shooting!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxcrashxx:
yes, much trouble, but no shooting.... but it was well worth it.. :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
What I said is it MIGHT be the camera button, or it MIGHT be the BACK button. BOTH of those buttons can cause it to jump into fastboot!

And so rather than TRYING BOTH, you decided to try ONE and then give up and replace the entire board containing the button.

Well guess what you've proven: It was the BACK button.

Just like I said it was.

is there anyway to flat out remove the DATE column in the default file explorer? it eats up too much space even on the 800x480 display forcing me to goto landscape sometimes just to read the file name.

anyway to flat out remove it so the file name column can use that space?

also anyway to make it use smaller font for default file explorer?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] criseofrise:
1). Create a new folder on desktop - name = contacts

2). We need all our contacts in .Vcard file. (See below how to get .vcard file)

Now copy this contact folder to your memory card (S.D) of your mobile.

Now go to contacts --- (Android)

click menu button - Import contact from SD card.

All most done !

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to get .vcard file.

In Microsoft outlook --- Contacts --- Select 20-30 contacts at a time, right click the mouse -- Select Send full contact ---> In Internet Format (.Vcard)

Now it will open new email. And you will found all .vcard files in attachment just cut and copy it to the contacts folder created at desktop.

But this is the slow option, we have to do it again and again if we have many contacts because it do not send more than 30 contacts at a time.

Something is better than nothing !!!!!

(BUT ON TOP OF THAT YOU SHOULD HAVE CONTACTS SAVED ON YOUR PC OR LAPTOP SO THAT YOU CAN USE THEM TO COPY IN MOBILE.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbbandos:
I have a little problem. I just found out my contacts are corrupted after I tested a contact management application. Unfortunately, I only found out after some days, and after the contacts had been synchronized back to google.

The good news - I have a couple of nandroids and some titanium backups made before the contacts got corrupted. I can get back to the correct version.

The bad news - as soon as the phone syncs with google, the contacts get overwritten with the corrupted ones. I even tried clearing google contacts, and syncing, and all that got me was a empty contacts list both in google and the phone.

What I need - a way to force overwriting google contacts with the restored backup. I know I probably could go opening and updating each contact one by one (adding a space on the name or something like it) and that could work, tricking the synchronization engine to prefer the phone contacts to the google version, but I have over 600 contacts, with 150 with phone numbers; I'd rather not do that by hand.

Any suggestion?

Thanks!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sean_Dillon:
Try this, Get all your contacts back from the Nandroid. Don't connect the nexus to your Google account just yet, goto the contacts in N1 & click on menu button choose to export to .vcf after that copy the .vcf file to your computer. Log into your Gmail account on the computer and delete all the Gmail contacts, then choose to import .vcf file from your computer to your Gmail account, once you've managed to get the contacts imported to Gmail setup your N1 to Sync to the Gmail account. That should do it. Cheers.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbbandos:
Thanks, but I had already tried that - and ended doing exactly that. The problem with that solution is that you lose all your groups, favourites, and starred contacts. Now I'm backing up contacts in gmail a group at a time, so I won't have this problem again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sean_Dillon:
Bit of a pita I know but as far as I can see there's really no other way if you use Groups.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaximReapage:
Actually, I'd try deleting all contacts off the phone once it's synched with Google (then sync again, obviously), THEN restoring the .vcf

Internet connection problem after flashing

Hi everybody,

I have solved my internet connection problem. Although I have tried setting APN settings before, I was unable to connect internet so I wasnt expecting anything related to APN settings. However it seems that I have set the APN in wrong before, because today I was able to connect to internet with the true APN settings.

Before mentioning about my experience I want to thank everyone who helped me.

With the europe version firmwares, the "Enable always-on mobile data" setting still absent after I have set APN and connect internet. I dont know why.

But with the Arabic firmware version, before I set the APN the "Enable always-on mobile data" setting was seen however I was not able to change it ON/OFF. Rİght after I set APN, this option become changeable. But since there is no market application in the Arabic version I flashed europe firmware. With europe firmware market application works fine.

So, although I cant see the Abdsyafii "Enable always-on mobile data" setting, I can connect to internet.

Thank you very much everybody.:)

Hi everyone!

I just want to help anyone who have the "gps won't fix" problem.

Before taking back your phone to assistance try this:

-Go to Settings\Location & Security and tap: "use GPS satellite"

(or in alternative, if you have the power control widget enebled, tap on the gps icon)

-Dont do anything else and reboot your phone

-Just go to your preferite gps application and wait for 2 minuts, it should fix now

(remember that it's a cheap phone, you need a clear sky view to get a fast fix)

It's a BUG that affect this device: if you shut down your phone whit the gps module down, at the reboot it won't fix, no matters what you do.

You have to manually turn on gps and reboot... a pain in the ...

So if you have the "fix problem", try this BEFORE going to assistance.

One other problem that can affect this device is that the wifi receiver can't find any network unless you place the phone at one meter off the router... the dealer who sold me the phone, told me that many devices had this problem so:

when you buy it, just try the wireless before ;)
