[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelastgoodbrother:
I tried doing a search, but couldn't get the answers I needed.

I was trying to do a quick install of Unrevoked on a (believe or not) Sprint employee's Hero. My girlfriend and I went to upgrade her Palm Pre to an Epic 4G. We got to talking and I showed him my hacked Evo with all the bells and whistles via "Fresh." All he was concerned about was getting was Swype and Tethering. Since I didnt really know the guy, I told him that I would bring in my laptop and hook him in the store with unrevoked rather than doing a full fledged root.

Well to make a short story long...

I downloaded unrevoked and what I thought to be the correct tethering app apk. He is running 2.1, and I believe its was update 1. When I ran unrevoked it said that it was rooted sucessfully, but when I tried running the tethering app it says that the phone requieres root. Leading me to believe that it didnt install correctly.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Even point me to a link or two. What should have been a simple task kept me at the store for about 45minutes trying to troubleshoot. Thanks...:o
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poashll:
Well that probably means their phone is at build number 2.27.651.6. When I ran unrevoked with that build number it said it was rooted but, it wasn't. Load the .5 RUU and then you can do the unrevoked.

I haven't been able to tell a difference yet but I just got the x10. So whats your opinion... better to leave on or off?
[XPERIA X10 General] mingleberry:
From reading several previous threads, many seem to prefer it off.

My opinion is that it's probably of limited use when SE have set the compression level so high on photos taken with the built-in camera app - ie if you zoom in on a pic you're more likely to encounter compression artifacts than camera shake (at least in good light conditions). I've found the Vignette camera app improves on the built-in app in this regard as you can set the compression level yourself.

I am also interested in whether IS makes any difference under conditions such as low light where I've generally found the camera to be wanting.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henkishere:
Hello folks!

I have the following problem:

When a call comes in, I can answer it. The caller can hear me, but I can't hear the caller. The same problem exists when I rang a number, the person i rang can hear me, I can't hear the person. To make it more strange, when I tick on the intern speaker, i can hear the caller/person who I rang. I don't think my intern speaker is broken because i have never let drop the phone. The only thing I did was changing from ROM, I had the Energy rom wich worked pretty good (no problems, even not this one) then once on a day I noticed this problem, I did a hardreset with luck, it worked! Its now after a few weeks from that, I did a hardreset, with no luck, I did another hardreset again without luck. Then I decided to change the rom, even this is without luck.

Any ideas? I'll post the technical information below.

Sincerly, Henk

I have a question, might be a dumb question, who knows.

Well here it is, when you go into application management and then into running app. What are the consequences when you hit clear cache or hit clear data or forces close? Thanks in advance everyone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VOODOOTRIP:
All depends on what app and whether or not you are on a stock rom. Some apps are supposed to run. Just so we're totally clear you are talking about running apps and not running systems tab right?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aayoo:
I'm running a stock evo, not rooted. And yes I mean running apps also download apps not system apps. And thank you for the quick reply.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 360nitrous:
Hey!

I was wondering, is there a way of adding apps to a rom... theres a few apk's i practially have to have installed, so i was wondering is there a way to add these files to a zipped rom so they install within the the system folder on the phone takin up dedicated rom space instead of dedicated phone storage....

been searching for a while about this, an theres a few close threads but they stopped before it was answered.

Also i have tried unzipping the rom, adding the apks, then rezipping an it didnt work, it started installing an finished within 2 seconds so obviously it didnt install the rom.

Thanks in advance!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortenmhp:
You should just be able to add them to the /system/app folder. You just have to use a custom recovery to flash it, because the original zip is signed, where yours isn't. So if you turn the check for signature off in the recovery it should work just fine.

Alternatively you can learn how to sign your zip file, but that's far more time consuming.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 360nitrous:
i tried doing that, toggled it off in clockworkmod and still does the same thing. so not entirely sure wat i'm doing wrong, all i'm doing is rezipping it to a zip file using winrar.... should i try somethin else?

and yeah i made sure it did it to a zip file an not a rar file
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mi3x:
I had a similar problem like yours.

Here is where we were wrong. We unzipped the .zip, added whatever we did, and then selected the folder and added to zip, which is wrong. You have to select ALL the folders and files WITHIN the folder unzipped and add it to archive.

Meaning, I have for ex. update-OD4.0.10.zip, after I unzip it it gets a folder containing all the files and folders of the ROM. You have to go one level in, select them all (files and folders in there) and add it to zip. Et voila!

Hope you understand my English! :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 360nitrous:
Now that makes me feel stupid haha!!! your totally right, that sorted out the problem, thanks a lot!!! sometimes its the simplest things that you forget about :rolleyes:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortenmhp:
Yes you will of course have to add the folders in the same structure as before, as the update script are telling the recovery which folders to flash where, and you are leaving that script unchanged.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mi3x:
My pleasure:p I loled as well! At least I went deeper in my feeling stupid, changing RAR tools, different compression types etc... and the answer was there all along.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevoh84:
I am trying my best to use this rom, it seems a pretty great rom. Only I cant seem to get my backed up contacts on my sdcard to import, or the contacts stored on my sim to import. When I select the option to import either of these, the phone says reading from sd/sim, and goes through the contacts, yet when it has done,there seems to be no contacts imported at all. I can use all my google contacts or facebook contacts only I do not wish at all to have these as there are hundreds, I just want my usual peep list! Any help please?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kibbles-n-bits:
When the power is on the TP2 the red LED charge light is on. the icon in the task bar changes to show that it is plugged in. but after sitting for hours the battery only drains further. If i power the TP2 down plug it up the red LED comes on and the battery charges fully to 100% then goes to green. I have bought new battery and charger. any ideas? note it is allowed to charge via usb in the settings. thanks folks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jackos:
This is NOT a issue. It's a feature.

Phone does charge to 100%, but later the electricity is cut off until it reaches ~95% (or something like that). It prevents the battery from overcharging and saves important battery lifetime cycles. If it would be charged constantly from 99% to 100% the battery would be dead in a month.

Its installed as a system app. Search the legend Android development forum on how to uninstall system apps but install an other home first otherwise you will get stuck. Try launcher pro.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr0wnest:
After i updated to froyo during the pre-release days its been taking a MUCH longer time to mount my sdcard to my desktop. It can take up to a minute or longer when in the past it only took a few seconds, just like any standard USB flash drive.

I tried formatting the sdcard via the phone, but when i click "unmount sdcard" it just says unmounting sdcard and it stays that way forever. I exit the screen and go back, and i have to press unmount sdcard again which delivers the same results. So for some reason i can no longer unmount my sdcard via the phone. So i tried mounting the sdcard to my desktop, backed it up, and formatted it via windows before copying back all my files and apps. I tried mounting the sdcard to my desktop again but it still takes forever to mount.

To ensure the sdcard isnt damaged, i took it out of the phone and plugged it into a card reader. Windows detected the sdcard immediately and behaves just like how its supposed to.

So whatever the problem is, it lies with the phone itself. I tried googling around for answers but found none. Any help would be appreciated.

Running stock N1 on FRF91.

BUMP

No one really? :/
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
You using apps2sd? If so, it has to do lots of mount/unmount work, one mount per program moved.

It makes it much slower to prepare the drive for the PC and to return it to the phone. Since going to apps2ext on Enom's rom it's as fast as it was on 2.1 before apps2sd.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr0wnest:
Yeah i shifted 100MB+ of apps into sdcard, i have to if not i wont have any space in my internal memory. And all of that is causing it to slow down? So is there any work around to this?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigacgomez:
The more the app on the sd, the slower the USB mount... the system look for all active/background apps installed on the sd and terminates them before mounting...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
The workaround (the better solution, actually) is to use Apps2SD+ method (EXT3 partition for data) instead of regular Froyo Apps2SD.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr0wnest:
Damn but i need to root first right? So im pretty much screwed until my warranty is up. Because i'll definitely push more apps into my sdcard to free up space.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
You need to root, and you can root without unlocking - which means preserving your warranty (not that it matters - phones with unlocked bootloaders are repeatedly reported as serviced with no charge, as long as they have known HW problems)

I never tried single 300 mb file from the browser but u can try installing torrent client. You can download torrent files no matter how big they are.

THANK YOU
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
That means it started adb and is waiting for the phone.

Linux is a bit different. Make sure you are in "PC mode". Mac and Linux seem to be able to use "Charge Only". I use Ubuntu myself so I am pretty familiar with its quirks doing this. I would also make sure Linux sees your device before starting by typing this command.

./adb devices

It will respond with some kind of code.

Sometimes, Ubuntu didn't see my phone on first connect; I had to disconnect and reconnect.

Let me say, I have never done this through VMware, so I don't know if you will see any issues with this extra layer of abstraction, but let me know how it goes.
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
Your welcome :). It has taken a bit to get it this easy. A little trial and error, but I am glad it is starting to yield good success.
[Droid 2 Android Development] patchm00:
Hey,

So I reconnected and it saw the device ran the script and ended with "adb connection will be reset, restart adb server on desktopa nd re-login". Not sure what it means to restart the server but when I enter ./adb shell I get a $ instead of # :(

EDITED: Second time trying it it did reset automatically and again I lost connection and had to reconnect phone and once I did it finished and I have root :)

So looks like VMWARE works too
[Droid 2 Android Development] alrcsd:
Help!!!

I have a Droid 2 (v. 2.2.20.A995), I have been trying to root; I have all the files but everytime I run the "doroot1.bat" the script freezes at "adb shell". Any assistance would be most appreciated. Thx!

Oh, I'm trying to do this on XP SP3.
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
Good to know. I figured it would be quirky if it worked, but if it can work through that extra layer of abstraction, it means I think we got the process almost completely nailed down.:)
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
You need to have the android SDK installed. You need to place the scripts in the tools folder of the android SDK. Also, the one click method doesn't have a file called doroot1.bat, it is called doroot.bat. You may need to redownload the files from the second post.

You should never see such commands as "adb shell" if you have everything installed correctly.

Looks like you are using the old script. No matter. If you need help, just hit me up on Google Talk.

[Droid 2 Android Development] briankeith513:
This is friggin weird, I didn't do anything differently, but now I get new stuff in the command prompt, after clicking on the dooroot file. I think it is doing something, as it says daemon not running, daemon started successfully, but now says, root failed" "Do you want to try to run the exploit again? y/n
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
If you see this, press 'y'. It will try again. Sometimes the exploit can fail.
[Droid 2 Android Development] briankeith513:
says "restart adb server on desktop and re-login?" What does this mean?
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
Ignore that. That is the exploit running. That is the output of what is trying to root your phone. My script manages all of the restarting of adb for you. Just sit back and see if it works.

I allow the exploit to output that stuff for information from the developer. I could hide it, but I want everyone to see who really did the tough stuff.
[Droid 2 Android Development] briankeith513:
Ok, it's still sitting there on the same screen. How long should it take? What should come next? And should the phone actually reboot?
