help........Please

I have T-Mobile HTC wiza200

IPL 1.08

SPL 2.26

is G3 OR G4

and thank you
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] n2rjt:
Seems to be a G3 that wasn't correctly updated, since the IPL and SPL don't match.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] NadiaaibaN:
Thank you:)

where can I find explanation of the update:confused:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] n2rjt:
Sorry I got your personal message but didn't recognize you. Later I remembered that it was this thread. Look at this thread for a tutorial on how to upgrade. I believe that you have a G3, but the IPL and SPL versions do not match. When you finish the tutorial, both IPL and SPL should be 3.08 (or 3.09, but mine is 3.08).

Good luck. If you have any other questions, please ask.

For ROMs, search the 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development forum. My favorites are in my signature.

You can still download the official T-Mobile ROMs from their website, as long as you are a current T-Mobile customer, or at least know a telephone number of a current T-Mobile customer.

Currently, the link is:

I rooted the phone, went to applications > manage applications and I don't see any options to uninstall some of this verizon bloatware, or like the nfs game. I wanna get rid of this crap. How?

(btw, I AM an android noob. I've literally owned my phone now for a little over an hour coming from tp2.)
[Fascinate General] Daswolven:


Download Root Explorer from the market. Imho it's the easiest app to use. Don't delete, rather create a folder on your sd card and move the apps to it.
[Fascinate General] chronster:
thanks for the info, brother. Now for another noob question: Where are the files? LOL

I saw preinstall and moved those apk files, but I know there's more than that.

edit:

oh wait, I found them. Thanks again man.
[Fascinate General] Daswolven:
Lolz, my bad. system/app for the pre-installed crap. There's a good bit you can yank without harming anything, but be careful.
[Fascinate General] erichss:
I use titanium backup from the market to uninstall all the verizon bloat that I will NEVER use.
[Fascinate General] SeatownGST:

New version of the beta out, looks much better but has some issues with swype
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] HenioH:
is there anywhere to get the app for android since the beta stopped working for everyone today
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MRFERRARI23:
I have the newest version which is build #0.9.9.1 and it's got the shut down button to truly close the app finally lol but they took out the ability to use voice notes which was cool... kinda like what Palringo has!! hope they put it back! it's still in beta so im sure before it becomes final they'll polish it up good!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] EliWay:
I just Confirmed BeejiveIM is using C2DM(Google's Push notification Service)! My EVO's battery is crying with joy. I can now leave it running in the background with barely any battery drain! HOORAY!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MSmith1:
Very very interesting. Do you have the apk?

Edit: Forget it. I got it. Where did you read that it was using a true push tech?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MSmith1:
Uninstalled. 100% wake time. Oh well.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] EliWay:
Reading ABD logcat at first, then I noticed it actually shows it when you're installing the app and it asks for permissions. "Allow app to use Cloud to Device Messaging" under Network use.

Also notice that when you open it, it takes a split second to "update" your buddy list(Unlike eBuddy,Trillian and all others), proving it wasn't doing anything in the background.

I wouldn't let the 100% uptime keep you from installing this app. I am literally online the whole day and have noticed no major impact on battery life.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] xlGmanlx:
can you PM the link or how to get the APK for the latest beta?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MSmith1:
I dont see how the 100% wake time wouldn't have a negative effect on the battery. Its not letting the phone sleep. Isn't the purpose of push technology to let the app sleep in the background and only wake the app when there is data to be sent?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] EliWay:
First of all, my phone does not keep a 100% wake time when using Beejive. Even if it did, you need to understand what your phone is actually doing and what Android reports as "Wake time". Android can report your phone as "awake" while using 0% cpu and 0% network--Draining the same exact amount or even LESS as if the phone was being reported as "asleep".

My point is: People take the awake time too seriously. It's there to help you understand what app might be draining your battery but absolutely does not mean your battery is being raped. The system is really complex so it can and it WILL sometimes report your phone as awake, even though it's not draining any battery at all.

Yes. But like I said, Android sometimes reports the phone as Awake just because the App is sitting there-While using 0% CPU and 0% Network -- The phone is effectively asleep. It's using a push connection, and when a message comes in it will use some cpu and some network--effectively waking up the phone, using some battery.

good find.. i bought this for my iphone back then.. sucks that i'll have to pay again...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
Final version is now in the market for $10. You can email them if you were in the beta to get a free copy.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dadoc04:
YESSIR!!! just emailed them. Hopefully they get it to me quickly.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bradhawkins:
Have you tried emailing Beejive support and asking for a license transfer? I emailed support asking for a transfer as soon as i found out it was available, I will advise if I have any luck.

I have had success in the past transferring iPhone licenses to Android.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] xak944:
I also purchased Beejive for iPhone, which I'll never use again. I emailed them about a license transfer, we'll see if it's successful.

What developers have you had success with transferring licenses? I have about $50 in iPhone software that will never get used again. (I'm loving my Apple-free digital life now!).
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bradhawkins:
I've had success with Shape Services, was a bit of a long winded process but got there eventually.

I got a reply from Beejive after about 12 hours. "Sorry for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to transfer the license from iPhone device to Android devices"

I would be interested too see if you get the same response.

I think I ended up getting a free license anyway. I managed to find the Beta via google, next day (when it was released) my license status changed from Beta to Android Market License. Now to wait and see if it expires.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] xak944:
I got the exact same canned response. :(

I love supporting good software, but I hate paying for it twice!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MSmith1:
Download the Trillian Beta. MUCH MUCH MUCH better on battery.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bradhawkins:
Agreed. Ran Trillian all last night battery usage was 13% for 12 hours
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MSmith1:
Was that the battery usage just for trillian? How did you get app specific battery usage?

I've been running trillian on my phone for days now with little to no effect on battery. Its like a dream come true.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] iomthd:
I've been running both trillian and beejive from the jump but even though beejive has a better look in my opinion, trillian has been way more functional.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dadoc04:
cosign!!!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bradhawkins:
That was total battery usage
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] xlGmanlx:
Also you doubted my findings, haha I kid
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] abanh:
I've been testing trillian beta and imo.im, and both are great on battery life. I'm going to stick with imo.im because its free and works great with Facebook chat.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
From Beejive:

So it looks like they'll just take the email address that you sent them, add it to the list of purchases, and then you will be able to download from the Market. Until then, you can use the final version that expires October 25th. I'm still using Trillian, but it's always cool to get a free app. ;)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] iomthd:
Looks like they've updated again, but I haven't gotten anything since that email.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M4gicM@:
Haha, What a title but I needed to get people that already have their pulldown modified to answer.

I modified my framework for awesome transparent pulldown, however it is a bit jerky when it auto slides down/up. The old (non-transparent) version was buttery smooth. Does anyone else have issues with their pulldown after making it transparent.

This only pertains to FroYo, my 2.1 transparent pull down was butter.

If you do have the little issue (and it is very slight) how did you mod your framework, and what are you running?

Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OSully:
I haven't had any issues. I just changed the framework apk to a zip file, replaced the background image for the notification pulldown, and then applied the framework via a zip in rom manager.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M4gicM@:
Yes but your services.jar was patched to allow for transparency. Do you mind posting it? There is a variable under StatusBarPolicy.smali that was changed. It was actually an opacity variable.

The issue I am talking about is very slight. You can just see the wipe animation stall for a little bit when letting it auto pullup or down.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] motempo:
No issues with transparency on CM. Maybe get with Koush or anyone from CM and see how they went about modifying the framework to allow for transparency.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] srkonus:
Hi,

i am looking for a Galaxy owner near Aachen (Germany) which helps me to bring my device to recovery or download mode. Download mode works (see here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=781958&page=1) but now i need some help. I will visit somebody, if the distance is not to long :-)

kind regards

srkonus
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bilboa1:
i live a little far from aachen (near hamburg) but german galaxies are standard GT-I9000's and i have seen none which would fail to enter download mode. the steps are always a bit confuse in all the posts (and in the thread where you have replies)

Just follow these EXACT steps, don't do anything differently, really !:

- Remove the phone's back cover

- Remote the battery

- Remove the SIM card

- Remove the SDCARD (if any)

- Remove the USB cable (if any plugged)

Push Volume UP and the home button; keep them pushed.

Insert the battery (ask help if you can't manage alone) - keep other buttons pushed!

If the phone doesn't boot:

- keep the buttons pushed, and also push the power button

- wait until the phone starts, it says "GT-I9000 blabla" then a few seconds later the screen flashes and some text scrolls - RELEASE ALL BUTTONS QUICKLY

- you are now in recovery mode. Use volume up / down to select "wipe data/factory reset" and use the home button to select that. After this reboot, it probably fixes it.

IF it never shows up the recovery mode, it doesn't even scroll text etc: your recovery is broken (maybe you broke it with whatever tool). No need to panic, download mode must always work.

Download mode procedure:

- Remove the phone's back cover

- Remote the battery

- Remove the SIM card

- Remove the SDCARD (if any)

- Remove the USB cable (if any plugged)

Push Volume DOWN and the home button; keep them pushed.

Insert the battery (ask help if you can't manage alone) - keep other buttons pushed!

If the phone doesn't boot:

- keep the buttons pushed, and also push the power button

The phone should boot quickly and pass from black screen to the yellow screen with "downloading..." if you use GT-I9000 its already too late (you can reboot again by removing the battery or pushing the power button for more than 10s)

IF none of this works: verify your buttons are working properly and not broken or having wrong contacts.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Fr4gg0r:
Ouuuh,

if you take a look into the "android-hilfe.de" board, you will see lots of people who cannot get into download mode!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bilboa1:
oh **** ^^

one beer per galaxy recovered by pressing stuff properly

xD

i've got like 10 galaxy s coming from germany in my hands (all had JF3) including mine none had issues going into download modes when done properly

even when the partitions are broken it still goes into download mode (ofc not recovery then, that only works with a working system)

if any of them is in the north of hamburg and think they need a hand u can tell them to pm me here. my german is not very good but it works out ;)

if they're skilled and theres a real issue, ive never encountered that on my friends phone/providers or mine (mine was not carrier sponsored)

maybe there's a specific carrier that has those modified phones like bell which i'm unaware about ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] srkonus:
Hi,

i recovered my phone but it is maybe a good idea to know if there is a user near aachen to exchange know-how by a beer :-)

[Vibrant General] jayprime:
I've got a rooted 2.1 stock Vibrant with ryan's lag fix. My quadrant score went from 876 to 2250 which is great. My linpak for android only went from 8.101 to 8.225 mflops. I would really like my mflops to be in the 10-15 range though. It also seems to be running much quicker. Would I see a bigger boost with voodoo or should I just keep ryans lag fix going. Is voodoo just as easy to install to. Also I've been dying for the Frodo OTA. Would both of these lag fixes work for 2.2
[Vibrant General] Droidicus:
Huh. Huhuhuh. He said Frodo. Huhuhuh. Huhuh.
[Vibrant General] Relikk356:
LOL, it's been a funny day today. This is almost as good as the guy who told the noob to put on three lag fixes, so it will be three time's as fast!!! LOL.

Let's all hope Frodo can get the One Ring to Mount Doom in time. Then him and the rest of Samsung dev team might get Froyo done soon. Only then can the world rest and our linpak score possibly rise!
[Vibrant General] jayprime:
I saw that post to and it was pretty funny. I just want to know the differences between the to lag fixes, and which one is better to have.
[Vibrant General] zephiK:
How about try them both and you be the judge of it? Results vary on people's setups. If I were you, I would wait for a more stable version of VooDoo.. I have applied it but many people have reported having problems detecting their SD card (external and internal). To fix this, you'd have to restore your apps using Titanium Backup etc etc.

I would definitely say VooDoo, I have used RyanZA and VooDoo. But since you're a new user, I'd just wait for the more stable version.
[Vibrant General] gravis86:
Does Voodoo reformat the entire SD to ext4 or does it symlink like Ryan's?

If it changes the whole file system to ext4 then I would say it has to be faster.
[Vibrant General] jayprime:
thanks foe responses, I will wait until voovdoo goes stable an see the performance myself.

you CANT get 10-15 mflops, if you read how the lagfixes work you would understand what you are measuring. i think with OC you might get mid 9's

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] eweo911:
In the Samsung Vibrant section, there are numerous threads regarding this exact issue. It appears the hardware keys have been locked to disable entering recovery/download through the button press process.

You can get into recovery/download through Rom Manager however.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortenmhp:
Well if you want to keep the mentioned hig res contact pics then the solution mentioned above is not very usable, as you will just get your contacts on a list, which the phone can import again.

If you dont need to keep those pics, just make the backup from the contacts app, and import the file to your google account through a browser. Then sync them back to your phone. And just create all future contacts as google contacts.
