Actually, I found what seems to be an even better way. With this method you can keep the newest version of Flashplayer (10.1.92.xx from the Nexus/Market), but enable Hulu. Download the HuluPack 2.zip above. Open it and extract the install_flash_player.apk from the zip. Now open the .apk (explore, not try to isntall, Astro works well here), and find the libflashplayer.so file inside the lib folder in the .apk. Extract this to your SD card. Open root explorer, navigate to /system/lib and rename libflashplayer.so to libflashplayer.bak or cut and paste it to your SD card, whatever, just make sure you don't delete it. Now copy the libflashplayer.so from the HuluPack2 install_flash.apk into /system/lib. You can do all this whether Flash is part of your rom or installed using an apk, and you can do this without rebooting the phone. After copying the libflashplayer.so to /system/lib, websites will recognize your flash player as a slightly older version of desktop flash, 10.52.x.x, and Hulu will work, but you will still get the benefit of better performance from the most recent flash player available.

Use the general guides for rooting the device with revolt (make sure you grab the custom image for SLCD screens!), then head over to modaco and you can find a stock Froyo rom there unless you want to run a custom one.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinf1990:
for me i didn't have to do any rooting. first i used this guide. create a gold card first though. after creating the gold card, i used this very first link in the first post to update to froyo (2.09.405.8). after that, you can go to ota updates in the settings on the desire and it will then upgrade it to 2.10.405.2.

[Vibrant General] floepie:
Backing up and restoring on very similar ROMs seems to include three parts: 1. System data, 2. Applications, and 3. App data.

Let's bring up an example going from stock 2.1 ROM to one of Eugene's Vibrant* or Hybrid ROMs or even one of the Bionix(?) ROMs. What is the consensus of moving stuff over to the new ROM? Restore all three parts; only Applications and App data; or only Applications?

I'm sort of confused as to what to bring over to the new ROM. Thanks.
[Vibrant General] rakeshchn:
I think this is what I do in the same order as given below

- Install ROM manager and take a nandroid backup (for system) of the stock ROM

- Install Titanium backup(TB) and take backup of user data, user apps and some system data (like wifi settings)

- Take a backup of the internal SD card to computer (optional)

- Flash the new ROM via clockwork recovery

- Install TB from market and restore all user apps/data from backup

You should be good to go. I assume that the custom ROM you flash has all required system apps that you will need.
[Vibrant General] zephiK:
Pro Tip: Get Titanium Backup Donate version.. otherwise you're going to have a terrible time restoring apps with the non-donated version.
[Vibrant General] floepie:
Right. I don't even think it's even possible to backup system apps, that's why I mentioned only system app data. So, even system data usually or always restores well to new ROMs?

Why is that?
[Vibrant General] henreeg:
how come? I thought it would be better.
[Vibrant General] RadAway:
Because the full version lets you restore/backup in a batch, so you don't have to *click* *click* *click* a hundred times.
[Vibrant General] rakeshchn:
I dont think its right that free version of TB wont allow batch restore. Only thing that will be missed from donate version is fast restore using hypershell. I have not personally used the app, so this is based on what I have read.
[Vibrant General] vinnydakid:
The free version lets you batch backup. Are you sure it doesn't let you batch restore?

I don't always complain, but when I do, I #BlameWes
[Vibrant General] Shrivel:
Nope. Just back up. No batch restore. I think there's some other advanced functions that the free one won't do as well, but it's been a LONG time since I used the free one.

A small caveat regarding Titanium. There are a small handful of apps that don't behave after being restored - one that comes to mind right away is Google Voice. If you find an app FCs after being restored, just uninstall and re-download from the Market.
[Vibrant General] MasterColdSoul:
I am sure it doesn't, I bought the donate version and only then was I able to batch restore. Also the restores then were able to restore some programs I couldn't restore before.
[Vibrant General] vinnydakid:
Alright, then I guess I'll be donating tonight!

I don't always complain, but when I do, I #BlameWes

My fiancee is leaving for vacation in a few weeks and I wanted to get a gps tracking app in case her iphone should get lost or stolen. I would like one that works for android too so i could have one account for both our phones. I thought about google lattitude but i dont see that iphone gets that. Any ideas?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] krakerx:
The only one that I know of for the iPhone that is a sure thing is mobileMe. $99 though, but it's for the year, plus it'll back up just about everything on the phone too, so if anything does happen to it, it'll be backed up.

As far as android, I was using lookout, it's free in the market. Simple web interface, and it too will back up a bunch of your info, as well as find your phone.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ukulele_ninja:
Ill check out mobileme for me, theres no way im paying $100 for the iphone program though. I just want something that you can pull up say, 'hey theres my phone' and be done.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] InsaneJester17:
While iOS4 finally allows location to run in the backgroud, I think it only allows pre-running location to run. Meaning the program would have to be started by her any time her phone resets, constantly be tracking the phone, and would wear out the battery super fast. I could be wrong on this, but I have never personally come across an app store program that could do this.

If your wifes phone is jailbroken, there are a few apps that do this in a much better way. Ilocalis is supposed to be one but I never got around to trying any of them when I had my iPhone. Hope this helps!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Fameelee:
Suggest you to try Fameelee - Family Locator app. It works in background, highly accurate and drain 3% of the battery life only.

Give it a try and you will be addicted to it.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] RobbieRq:

is there any way to disable threaded sms function? I find it really annoing.....

thanks

[Dash 3G, Snap General] roberto75780:
i cannot believe you want to disable it because i have been waiting for years to finally get a phone that supports threaded sms. its so much better. but then again.... i hated threaded message view in google gmail when it first came out. they finally added a setting to disable that and i disabled it for a week and realized threaded view is way way better. so my idea is, try it and try to get used to it, then try a phone without it, and you will notice how much time it saves you!
[Dash 3G, Snap General] roberto75780:
This is how to turn it off

Using your favourite registry editor program, change the following key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\OEM ---> SMSInboxThreadingDisabled

Change that DWord from 0 to 1

Thats it! One little bit in the registry controls that.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Surfinette:
I'd like to sync my HTC desire's calendar and contact with Outlook from work. The issue is that at work I do not have priviledged rights to my PC, so I can't install any program and our IT helpdesk does not want to install for me an Outlook add-on that would sync with google calendar/contact.

The only thing I can do though, is to run programs on my work PC that don't require installation (ie portable apps only).

So far, what I have been able to do was to run portable thunderbird on a UBS key, collect my Outlook contact with portable thunderbird. Then transfer these thunderbird contact to thunderbird installed on my home PC and with the gContactSync addon, the thunderbird contacts extracted from thunderbird are eventually synced to my google contact(and then obviously to my phone). This is however a tedious process that I can't do on a daily basis. And it's only a one way process from home to google/phone, not the reverse. I'm wondering whether I could do this in a more convenient and more automated way (including possibly the calendar)?

Also I know the Desire can be synced with Exchange servers, but I doubt it would be feasible in my case: To start with, I don't know how I would be able to do that, and in particular how I would be able to collect the exchange server info required for the setup without the help of the IT services (they won't be particularly helpful because it is not for pro usage).

Any advice would be nice

Well, you can always try a way that worked with iPhone and any other device with MS Activesync.

If you have a VPN account to your company, try to connect with a VPN client to your desire and then you can setup an activesync account to your phone.

Try it using the actual ip address of your exchange server.

It worked for me in the past.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] whynot66:
Hi, just found this and it worked a treat thought id share

To use your Android phone on Vodafone or any other networks you will need to set it up like below.

You need to create two APN’s one for connection to the internet and one for the MMS.

Go to settings>mobile networks> access point names and Click Menu then “New APN”

Enter the following to be able to use the internet on vodafone:

Name: Vodafone Default

APN: internet

APN type:default

The MCC and MNC will be filled in automatacly if you have your simcard inserted in the phone. Mine were set to 234 and 15.

Leave all other settings blank and select menu and SAVE.

You now need to create another APN just like above but for the MMS:

Click menu and ‘New Apn’ and enter these settings

Name: Vodafone MMS

APN: wap.vodafone.co.uk

Username: wap

Password: wap

MMSC: http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms

MMS Proxy: 212.183.137.012 (yes its a 0 in front of the 12)

MMS Port: 8799

APN type: mms

click menu and save.

IMPORTANT : YOU MUST restart your phone for settings to work

I use the radio 2.15.50.14 and have never had any problems with calls cutting out etc. Any issues could be down to the build you are using rather than the radio.

[Epic 4G General] jtl814:
Has anyone been having this problem? I use my epic as an alarm clock, and connect it to my charger before I go to sleep. For the last two nights the alarm has not gone off but when I wake up there is a "battery full, please disconnect from your charger message" pop-up message that I have to clear to use the phone. I am wondering if the two are related? Anyone know how to stop the message from happening or is anyone having alarm clock problems?
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
My Alarm clock went off this morning with that message. Kind of a stupid message - I'll take it off the charger when I want to dang it!
[Epic 4G General] jtl814:
so then your alarm did go off even with the charger message? Which alarm clock do you use? the one that came with the phone?
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
Yep, stock alarm app - woke up to see that stupid message on the screen (first night with the phone)

What sound are you using for your alarm - is it on the sd card? maybe it can't be read? mine is playing the standard default sound. (light sleeper, dog sneezes and I wake up)

Hi everyone.

I tried to upgrade my i-mate Jamin to WM 6.5 using this file.

I think I did everything right (I checked the G4 and HardSPL in the beginning of installation and I'm sure my MB is G4).

Everything was going perfect and the installation advanced without any problems, but at the end my Jamin was stuck in the three color screen, showing only the following words:

IPL: 2.13.001

SPL: 2.13.001

I tried to hold the Comm Manager and Soft Reset buttons as this topic recommends, but the phone gets back to the 3 color screen again, and no success...

I tried to pull out and reinsert the battery, also no success...

Please help me, this is my friend's phone! I AM SO NERVOUS and I may kill somebody! :mad:

Is there anything I can do to get rid of the 3 color screen? :confused:
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] bikertibi:
Please don't panic! If you see when connect the phone to the computer and USB message on the bottom of prophet screen update is posible. So try to put original WM5 on the phone. Read dioxda2 post for more. For sure you don't hardspl your phone before flashing....
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] mahi58:
Thanks

Thank you very much, my problem solved using the WM5 flashing process.

I thought it's impossible to get the phone connected to PC because activesync wasn't establishing a connection to the phone, but obviously I was wrong. :)

After flashing WM5, I performed a HSPL on the phone, and then used the file again, and the phone was upgraded to WM 6.5 with no problem.

I previously had downloaded your 6.5 ROM from a crappy forum, which was only including a download link and some useless info, and since I was a newbie myself (:D), I didn't even know that I should have performed a HSPL before upgrading the OS. :eek:

If you live in an area w/out 4G, flash Cyanogen 6.0...its the top ROM out there in my opinion (I use and I live in a 4G area).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AndiCP:
Hi guys,

as I've been around for a while, I decided to share a bit of my work with you, too.

So feel free and use this small program if you like. No warranties as usal from my side.

This Bootmanager has a quite intuitive UI. You get an quick overview of the phone status and can select your boot profiles which you can manage inside the UI as you like (see screen shots below).

Additionally you can have voice announcements, SenseUI control, easy backup & restore of startup folder and program settings and an extended information screen. On this info panel you can find all important information about your phone.

This app only requires .NET CF 3.5 to be installed on your device.

The Pattern of the folder structure is always "\_AutoStart_" & selected Foldername. You can change the folder names in the UI settings tab. The folder "_AutoStart_Backup" is created by the program if you back up your current folder. All other "_AutoStart_" & X folders are created initially, but you want to choose which startup links are in there (folder names are case sensitive!). Just ensure the "X" matches your folder name in the ui settings for this specific button exactly. The default buttons are for Sense UI and XDAndroid. Their respective folder names (in the settings tab) are "Sense" and "Android", therefor I have "_AutoStart_Sense" and "_AutoStart_Android" folders on the root of my phone. In the "_AutoStart_Common" folder you have all the shortcuts which have to start no matter which profile is selected.

Tipp:

I have overclocked my device continously (stable) using this method (with this App) and with SmartBoot I can easily select between OC and non-OC configurations.

For your convenience this Windows Mobile® freeware app supports AppToDate, an easy to use application update program. You can obtain it freely from here.

Please download from Post #2.

Thanks to eboelzner for his great Sense SDK!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AndiCP:
Download:

Download SmartBoot only here please. (Please no mirrors or similar!)

Please feel free to leave a comment or bugs found.

PS: I will not provide any localization support. Just english language.

If you want I can create a "Light" Version without sounds and stuff, just mention it.

Also if there is demand for it I could create a step-by-step guide.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] henryfranz2005:
hello guys. what is XDAndroid? sorry for being a noob :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AndiCP:
Thank you for your kind feedback

You currently have two options for a safe mode:

1. Tap "Do nothing" at the initial screen (will exit immediatly -> no boot programs)

2. go to settings and enable "Confirmation", then click the button of your desired boot environment (and you can decide on each short cut -> safe mode).

@All: Thanks for your kind feedback! You are welcome!

PS: If you choose option 2 from above and tap no for at least one shortcut, you will get an "Ooops! Something went wrong!" message at the end.

You can ignore this, as it simply means not all shortcuts got executed. ;)
