[General Questions and Answers] eckell3:
Hello,

How are you all? I have been a lurker in the past but this is my first post. I see things on the LG expo but nothing on the Verizon LG Fathom (VS750) so I decided to post my questions here.

I recently won a new in box LG Fathom from a local raffle. It was locked to Verizon. I have AT&T and I decided to unlock it as it does have at least one of the AT&T 3G bands (along with quad band GSM and CDMA) I tried two well known online code unlockers and they failed to find the code. I then called Verizon to see if I could buy or obtain the unlock code and they said I had to be a current customer in good standing for 60 days. So having nothing to lose I gave it to a friend to put on their account to get it unlocked for me and with in 5 mins of being on the plan, Verizion gave them the code and it was unlocked.

Phone works well for calls, texts and with wifi. However here are two problems I am having with this phone.

1. I am not able to put in AT&T WAP settings. On the top of the connections screen it says the following "This connection is pre-configured. It cannot be modified.

Is there anyway around this? Can a new ROM be flashed to give me access to new settings? I see nothing on the LG Fathom (WinMo 6.5)

2. Phantom Voice message indicator. There is no voice message in the system. I have called and left new voice messages and then deleted them the indicator still is there, I have soft and hard reset the phone and left the battery out and the voice message indicator stays put. I have made sure the VM settings are for AT&T and still the VM indicator stays put. I have did a full erase and restore and it stay put.

Is there a solution to getting rid of a phantom voice message indicator? Is this a WinMo 6.5 issue? Is this a product of using a Verizon phone on GSM(the phone was unlocked by code from Verizon so it should mean it is good to go) Is this something I am going to have to live with and check my VM regularly?

I am only into this phone for $20 (the cost of tickets) and a pineapple( a gift to my friend for taking the time to get it unlocked) so as long as it gets and makes calls and texts I am happy

Any help or tips would be most helpful

Thanks much

Hi.

1. Don't worry about this. Verizon settings cannot be changed but you don't need to use that settings by default too. To configure the AT&T settings, you can choose 2 paths.

1.You can find a cab and the cab will configure everything for you. That cab should be like that: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=337481 look at the bottom of the page.

2. You can configure it by yourself manualy. To do this, You should fist tap to menu, than settings > Connections > Connections, then tap "Add a new modem connection". After configuring that "new modem connection", you should go to "Advanced" tab from the same place than tap "Select Network" button and choose your confured network settings.

2. If I understand correctly, you want to erase Voice Message line from the home screen right? To do that you should install this cab to your device: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=497232 than disable the voice massage section from this installed application.

Hope I could help you a little:)

Is there any theme or app out there that can change the background color of the drawer or even make it transparent?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Reeonimus:
If you use adw launcher you can have any color, or transparency.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] gavriel18:
If you use the stock launcher you can edit the framework to change it or you can find a theme or you can use ninjamorph if you have a copy of the image you want to replace it with.

Hope this helps. :-)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] x10i DauL:
When I used Ninjamorph and replaced some png's in framework-res.apk my device didn't boot anymore. What could be the problem?

Regards
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] gavriel18:
@daul

Which pngs did you replace?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Mobzter:
It could be that the pngs are of different sizes to the original ones?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] zyexx:
its stuff like that, that makes me not wanna do any editing of those files. Will try the ADW Launcher

@ gavriel18 How easy is it to edit those files?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Mobzter:
Its not too bad.. This my first attempt so I believe anyone can do it!!
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] gavriel18:
Afaik the pngs get resized automatically. I was getting at the possibility that u tried editing a 9.png. they have data built in so u can't use ninjamorph. Imho ninjamorph is easy to use. Just read the instructions first. :-)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] gavriel18:
Btw I have no prior graphic design or programming experience. That's how easy it is.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] zyexx:
Seeing that you a pro, you wanna give it a try and let me know how it work out :D
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] gavriel18:
Lol far from a pro but ill try to make something quick for you tonight. ;-)

Do u have a specific color in mind?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] zyexx:
Much appreciated :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] x10i DauL:
Gps and bluetooth icon for the status bar.

but these are no 9.pngs.

Every time after I have to confirm finishing my project in Ninjamorph, there comes a little screen: please wait. I think this is because it wants to reboot. But after a few second it gets stuck and I have to remove the battery because my device isn´t able to do anything.

I hope you understand what the problem is..

kind regards

DauL
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] gavriel18:
Hmmm can u upload everything so we can take a look?

Sorry I couldn't make a bg for u zyexx last night, I picked up halo reach last night. :-D
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] zyexx:
no problem yo, whenever you can
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] x10i DauL:
What or which files should i upload??

kind regards

Hi:

Is there any app like Lumos (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=450318) for Android?

I tried searching, but all I kept running into was Lumos flashlight app lol.

I also tried auto backlight for android, and am coming up with nothing.

The auto backlight on Captivate doesn't seem to dim low enough in low light settings for my taste.

Thanks!

Yes! I was thinking the same thing. Subscribed.

Check this out. I tried it on my captivate with no luck....got stuck in boot loop....had tp flash stock. Give it a try.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] cincy1020:
That is an app to make the button lights work as notifications. I am looking for something that will auto adjust the actual screen backlight, but not the stock auto backlight.

Gotchya my bad.:rolleyes:
[Nexus One General] saint327:
Seems like if Gingerbread is suppose to be official before the end of the year, something should have leaked by now. An early test build, some screenshots, maybe some video? All we have seen are a couple of shopped screenshots that show 3.0 as the build:)

Someone out there must know or have seen something:rolleyes: Throw us a bone here!
[Nexus One General] x986123:
It hasn't been leaked because you touch yourself.

:)
[Nexus One General] mortzz:
Because people don't like breaking NDAs and losing their jobs?

Google will release it when they release it.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
+1 to the poster above.

And judging by Froyo experience, I guess Nexus users will see "semi-official" test builds way before the official release, once these builds make it to beta stage.
[Nexus One General] b0dge:
Ah, that's probably my fault then.

I'll stop for an hour or two and see if Gingerbread appears...
[Nexus One General] saint327:
Well that's what I'm saying. When Google showed Froyo at Google IO, it didn't OTA until almost 2 months after that. I was assuming that we would see a Gingerbread OTA before the end of the year. If timetables are similar that won't happen.

It just seems like we got more leaks and now its dried up lol
[Nexus One General] cqms13:
best response i have seen here for ages :D:D:D

ROFLMAO:):)
[Nexus One General] lbcoder:
I don't think that anybody's even said that the next release will be version 3. It could be 2.3 or 2.5....

The only thing we've actually seen is some chicken little claiming that it would take a modern supercomputer to run it -- and THAT has been refuted.

... and time has PROVEN that EVERY chicken little making claims about the future of android is always wrong 100% of the time.
[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
This year? lol, we won't see 3.0 until next year. IF we're lucky, Q1.
[Nexus One General] mortzz:
I personally like the "completely revamped UI!" bull**** you see floating around. My contact at Google confirms this is 100% fabricated bull****.
[Nexus One General] x986123:
You just killed everyone's mood. Thanks.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
There definitely is a change of some sort, you can see from the difference between the original voice search and the recent update.
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
and b0dge resumed his.... business.... :(
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
Gingerbread doesn't begin until honeycomb is finalized.
[Nexus One General] RellikZephyr:
That makes no sense.

You do know that G comes before H, right?
[Nexus One General] nellyspageli:
a google campus recruiter was at my university today. he was playing with a nexus one so i told him that i have one also. he said his was different so I asked him why and peeked at his screen and he suddenly pulls down the notification bar and says "oh it has at&t". this seemed like a silly reason so i asked what build he was running and he told me he couldn't say. I asked if it was gingerbread and he said yes. i asked him if he could tell me about new features and he said no.

i got some google chapstick and a google pen though.
[Nexus One General] newjaruz:
I have been hoping leaks would start soon considering Gingerbread is supposed to be unveiled in mid October. I expect to see devices in the latter part of Nov.

Just like when 1.0 was unveiled and 2.0 was unveiled. They were followed by a device about a month after.
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
Hmmm, interesting.
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
Cool story bro..
[Nexus One General] thedark-lord:
I don't know if this means anything to somebody, but whilst I was looking at the Linpack scores by device on greenecomputing dot com. N1 post #3 linpack score:49.664	Device/Rom: Nexus One/Ginger Kids Notes: 1228.8MHz google/passion/passion/mahimahi:3.0a4/FRG45/43546:user/release-keys

But then again it could be a load of tripe
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
I suspect it's tripe. I would expect a Gingerbread build to start with a G, not an F.
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
I agree.. that's quite odd, considering that's the way its been. And now a days anyone could make a ROM and name it to whatever they wanted.
[Nexus One General] :
That's what they want you to think.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Also I notice it says release-keys there, clearly it would be test-keys.
[Nexus One General] OrganizedFellow:
I'll trade you my Apple chapstick and pen set, for your Google branded set?

:D
[Nexus One General] t0ph0id:
:D

Especially the bit about the chapstick.
[Nexus One General] mrbkkt1:
I would suppose that Google would wait until Froyo is out more completely on the other android phones running eclair before leaking out g-bread. Otherwise the carriers could complain....
[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
So wrong it hurts.
[Nexus One General] Sarg92:
There is gonna be some change with the UI.

Google have got that design guru who worked on webOS and at the I/O event the stock music player had a different look which was more in line with the stock Gallery app.

And about the release of Gingerbread. Could it be that Google will just announce it when it is completely finished rather than what they did with Froyo - showing off an unfinished version.

Also could Gingerbread be delayed due to the launch of Google Music? The I/O event showed the online Android Market allowing users to purchase music so could it be that Google wants Google Music, Gingerbread and the new online Android Market to all launch at one go?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micro2112:
Any time I plug my phone in now whether charging or to my computer when I unhooking it the SD cards aren't mounted. Even if I turn off storage from the not. Bar.

Any ideas?

Rooted,lagfix and market enabled. Pretty sure it started after root though..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exparrot:
I had that issue this morning, and I notice it happens more often with MicroUSB cables that don't fit cleanly all the way into the usb socket.

I turned on USB debugging mode and then it gave me the notification to mount the sd card.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpragsdale:
All,

I have played around with the CM ROM and a few other but decided that I just want to put it back the way it was so I can get OTA's, etc from T-Mo. I have been looking through the forums and can't seem to find any consistency in doing this.

Does anyone know the process for doing this and have working links for any files necessary?

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megan23247:
You need to download the champion build and flash it. It's in the slide Rom bible in the android development section.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpragsdale:
Thanks. I flashed that ROM, but still have Root access and can't apply the OTA update. I get a checksum error. Any idea's? Thanks
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomadrider123:
Have you tried unrooting with the ESPRIMG.zip?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpragsdale:
I put the ESPRIMG.zip from this thread and booted. But I still seem to have root access and I can't get the newest update to flash. I keep getting checksum errors. I tried the nandroid unroot that is on the bible also, but I get an MD5 checksum error.

UPDATE***

So I flashed the ESPRIMG.zip from that URL and realized my build is 1.18.531. How do I get it to at least 1.27.531?
[Droid 2 Android Development] Matt4542:
This is down until further notice.
[Droid 2 Android Development] walcs:
ZOMG FIRST, i have the tranquility ROM and i want to try this one, what have you fixed this time with the .5 update?
[Droid 2 Android Development] Matt4542:
Some various bug fixes and the black text on the bar.
[Droid 2 Android Development] pulptastic:
Thank you! Downloading now.
[Droid 2 Android Development] walcs:
Thank you, if I'm using the Tranqulity ROM can I just install the ROM over it or do I have to flash the phone back to stock?
[Droid 2 Android Development] metman87:
love the built in battery indicator. literally just loaded. thanks so much. definitely let you know what i think and donation coming this week dude.
[Droid 2 Android Development] walcs:
My Gmail isn't working for some reason...and my contacts are gone, idk what's wrong

really fast. just finding that the browser won't open. other than that it's awesome
[Droid 2 Android Development] Matt4542:
For all those who downloaded so far, please redownload at the new link. Thank you.
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
I'll let you know how it goes.:)
[Droid 2 Android Development] walcs:
Well, i did it already and G-mail wasnt working, and my contacts were gone :( but now he linked a new download which is .12M bigger than the first download, idk if that will make a difference or not, im redownloading
[Droid 2 Android Development] ljbaumer:
just follow this tutorial and you should be all good. I just switched from tranquility over to this and it is much better.
[Droid 2 Android Development] ljbaumer:
hey I am on v2.0 of epic unleashed so do I have to wipe to flash this?
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
Something is big and wrong here. My google account is gone, and when you go to add an account, there is no google. Essentially I cannot use this. :( Seems some things got fixed, and some things got broken. Sadly, big things got broken.
[Droid 2 Android Development] walcs:
Help me out here a bit, check on the zip file and can you tell me if it says 117.02M or 117.14?
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
I am in linux, so it calculates my size slightly different. But there is something suspicious with what it is doing. I checked the update-script, and it is copying all blur and google applications and bloatware to system folder. I verified in a file manager that my system is full of everything. Now it isn't all showing up in my app drawer. I suspect there are some competing services messing things up here. Not sure though.

But to answer your question, mine says 117.1
[Droid 2 Android Development] walcs:
Thank you, when he first posted the post, the file shows 117.02M, but now he updated the downloading link it shows 117.14 now, i wonder what the .12M change was
[Droid 2 Android Development] burkechrs1:
My google account is gone too. I used the newest download. I also noticed all the blur apks are still there. I thought a blurless rom removed all those. Im going back to my last backup I was running 2.0 great :)
[Droid 2 Android Development] walcs:
Yep, i just flashed mine again with the newer download, that didnt work out too well. so im going back to tranquility
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
IRC room looks dead. People just standing around not talking.

Thankfully there is nandroid.
[Droid 2 Android Development] walcs:
Looks like tranquility its the right one for me right now
[Droid 2 Android Development] scsione889:
So...is it just messing with your e-mail or does it render Android Market unusable?

I use Exchange so the whole gmail email thing doesn't bother me much lol.
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
@matt4542 don't let all these bugs get you down. You learn by making mistakes. That should always be assumed when flashing custom roms. That's why I always nandroid.

Don't get discouraged. I think your doing great, not everything works out the first time. I'll be watching when the next release drops.:)
[Droid 2 Android Development] walcs:
Agreed, i really like the speed of the ROM and the theme, but just minor bugs that are keeping me from flashing this ROM, once you come out with 3.0 I will try again and give feed back
[Droid 2 Android Development] draya1986:
Just updated from 2.0 to 2.5. No problems here so far, 2.5 looking great.

All my google apps work and the extra apps that come with the ROM, I just get rid of with rom manager. Not a big deal. Keep it up Matt!
[Droid 2 Android Development] scsione889:
Installing now. Will update on Exchange functionality.
[Droid 2 Android Development] scsione889:
Exchange functions correctly. However, Android Market and Gmail app crash on opening. Gmail is no longer listed in accounts either. Browser confirmed working (as well as Flash). Otherwise, INCREDIBLY fast. Take care of that Gmail/Market issue and I'll be a happy camper (at least as far as the major stuff goes). :D Thanks for the hard work Matt!

edit: calendar app doesn't work. widgets wont allow resizing.
[Droid 2 Android Development] DBISGOD:
All you need to do is get the google account to sync, try running the setup ap.
[Droid 2 Android Development] darkonion:
My Google Talk doesn't work. No contacts. Browser doesn't work. A few other things. Had to flash back to 1.1, but I love the interface. Can't wait until 2.6 comes out.
[Droid 2 Android Development] haincha:
I have been a fan of yours since 1.0 (So like last week). I will be upgrading as soon as I can figure out how to make Google backup my phone numbers. I am sick of losing my contacts from every flash. (Not blaming you)

Keep up the amazing work!
[Droid 2 Android Development] draya1986:
Are you talking about launcherpro plus? No problems here resizing my widgets.
[Droid 2 Android Development] tgwaste:
you all are doing something wrong. this rom is working great for me so far. the only bug ive found is the onscreen keyboard does not vibrate when the keys are pressed even though ive set it do so. other than that, great job!
[Droid 2 Android Development] zzabbas:
First of all GREAT ROM!!! Thanks for fixing the Notification Menu and love the new Battery Indicator.

I have replaced my G1 running CyanogenMod with this Droid2, and this rom has seems to be just as stable.

A couple minor issues I would like to point out:

Super User App, is once again repeatedly asking for permission.

App Drawer shows 2 Gallery Applications. Seems like they are /system/app/Gallery3D.apk and /system/app/Gallery3DGoogle.apk.

Calender Widget can not be added to home screen. It finishes as if it was added but nothing appears.

Update:

I was able to fix the Super User App issue, by going to Super User App -> Settings -> su binary vnull.

Also to address the 2nd issue, I have just renamed Gallery3D.apk to Gallery3d.apk.orig

I have been unable to get the calender widget working though.
[Droid 2 Android Development] scsione889:
I erased my data and then my calendar app stopped crashing. I didn't know widgets aren't supposed to resize now (thanks for getting back to me Matt :D ), but I'm still having issues with Gmail and Market. Market app still crashes on startup, and I still can't get a Gmail account added (even adding it manually with Gmail's pop3 settings). I'll try restoring/reinstalling the rom later to see if something got quirky with the install.
[Droid 2 Android Development] scsione889:
Just did the SBF flash, deleted all data, re-rooted, installed the rom, deleted all data again. After going through all the setup after deleting the data again everything works. Gmail and Android Market work (the "Google" option under accounts is even there now). Hope this helps somebody. It's worth the effort. Thanks again everybody!
[Droid 2 Android Development] walcs:
Well, looks like the tranquility rom is messing with this one I guess, that's too bad because I really want to try this one out
[Droid 2 Android Development] facelessuser:
That is good news, but it does sound like something is going wrong in the flash process if it requires all that work to get it going. A complete wipe back to stock, reroot, and then flash shouldn't be necessary, but it seems like that is one of the only sure fire answers I think we have right now. If this is the only sure fire way, the flash instructions should advise everyone to do this. Even some people who already had 2.0 epic have had troubles going to 2.5.

I still think there has to be a cleaner way to get consistent results without SBF, wipe, reroot and flash. This isn't even touching the kernel, just the system and Data folder. After looking at the guts of the update zip file, I am not convinced yet that the way the phone is getting updated in the best way. Currently it is copying bloatware to the system directory; people just aren't seeing them in the app drawer for some peculiar reason. I think I still need more info on the process he is using before I try to flash again.

Keep in mind, I am not complaining, just trying to understand why there is a low success rate, and minimize the hoops I have to jump through before I commit myself to this ROM.

If we can understand why there is a low success rate, we can also come up with definitive prerequisites to installing the ROM, and methods of installing the ROM which yield a high success rate the first time, which will also cause mat4542 less headaches.
[Droid 2 Android Development] draya1986:
What I did was make a backup after I rooted, deodexed, and installed the bootstrapper. Then if I want to switch from tranquility to epic, I restore that backup I made and i'm able to switch ROMs without any issues.

I didn't have to do that this time since I was just updating from 2.0 to 2.5.
