I'm running cyanogenmod and put a invalid SSID in the built in wifi tether and now when I turn it on it says error and immediatly turns off and I can't change it since the setting are greyed out when it's turned off. So is there any way to fix this.

It would seem that the original *#*#1472365#*#* no longer works. It just stays at the dial menu. Have also tried with SGS info and servicemode apps and neither of those works on the new JI2 either. Any idea how to access those menus now? I would like to test the ms-assisted setting vs standalone with the new software.

I know eugene as a version of lbsmodetest that will do this but am hoping to stay purely stock for testing purposes.

[Wildfire Android Development] GreatWizard:
Hello guys, im planning to root and flash my wildfire device for the first time, i already studied and review all related things on hot thing done in wildfire..

now, the only question and seems not posted here..

As i bought my wildfire the stock ROM version is "1.25.707.1 cl227575 release-keys", where can i download this ROM so that incase i got a problems with different custom roms i can revert it back to my original rom version, i cant seems to find it in SHIPPED-ROMs website..

and if there no such thing as that version in the net, is it possible to backup my original ROM?.. (i guess not because i need first the custom loader to have the backup features which will wipe first my original rom before i can backup)..

Thanks!..
[Wildfire Android Development] beardyone:
as far as i am aware you can use unrevoked to root your phone. this will also install clockworkmod which replaces stock HTC recovery tool. within clockword mod you can make a backup of your current ROM and all apps and settings etc. you dont need a custom ROM to backup your existing ROM. just need your phone to be rooted. which is pretty much a one click process once you have got the windows drivers installed.

not sure about posting external links on forum but google unrevoked and see this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7895908&postcount=127

good luck

Can someone make an app to do this. It would be nice to have some kind of repository where developers can upload their boot animations and we could install. It would be good if it could detect the current rom I'm using. If gladly pay for the app. I'm using CM6 and can't change my boot animation. I'm trying to install through recovery and it succeeds but never applies.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
You can flash them through ROM Manager. Just put them in their own folder and name them appropriately.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] cubanjinx:
Just a thought...you might not be able to flash them cuz they're not flashable zips.

Either way.

Im running Cm6 and just to start off--audio doesn't work on this rom.

I currently use root explorer to load my boot animations. Its in the market for £2.50 but worth it if you want to change things on the fly.

When using root explorer just download the zip rename it to bootanimation.zip then move it to system/media(mount r/w) and rename the curent one there to bootanimation.bak(mount r/o) then just reboot and viola
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] firemedic1343:
Yeah, it's an easy enough process. But, I'm sure it would be a popular app for newbs. Especially if it's run like Rom Manager where devs can put up their stuff..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gqstatus0685:
I'd gladly pay for it. It has nothing to do with being a noob but more for the convenience. If that was the case then you might as well say ROM Manager is for noobs. I think it would be nice and a good way for a dev to make some money.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] cubanjinx:
I can positively say everything about this post is incorrect about root explorer. It's nothing like rom manager
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] evohog:
Just my two cents but there are a few flashable boot animations out there but what I would also really like to see is a way to easily install new splash screens. I've only been able to find one that was signed and flashable and it the reverse white on black which calkulin has in his rom thread. I would gladly pay 5$ for an app that could do both splash and boot animations.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gqstatus0685:
XDA should open a special paypal account for bounties. I'd give $20 if someone can pull it off and pay $5 for the app. It could be based on the 1 click root app concept.

You choose ROM, software version, app validates, choose splash screen or animation. The preview could open youtube and show you a vid.

Any dev wiling to take on task?

It's just a partition manager

The mac part of bootcamp is just a partition manager that adds a fat32 partition, so it really doesn't even matter. But to answer your question there have been no updates to bootcamp for the mac half of it, so if you have snow leopard, you're good.

Does anyone know of a product that would allow me to add bluetooth ad2p to my stock car stereo using the aux input?

I ordered two bluetooth receivers from amazon and tested them this weekend. Both sounded good, but neither of them would remember the pairing information or try to aggressively reconnect like the newer car stereos with ad2p support do.

Anyone using a device like this? I have spent the last week researching and I still have found nothing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sp4nk:
Hey guys!

first of all: I'm new here and your work is great !!

and because your work is so great, i tried to install android 2.2 on my HTC touch pro 2 (windows mobile 6.1) and it worked... but i wanted more. i wanted to have sense UI as well on my device. so i uninstalled android to install a version, which contained sense UI.

and here the problem starts: the haret.exe in the sense UI android version started but froze instantly. so i did a softreset.

since the softreset i am unable to install new .cab files or even start apps which were not installed on the device from the beginning (which includes android).

every time i get this error:

"The file XY can't be opened. it may not have a securitycertificate or one of its components can't be found."

(sorry if the language is strange, I had to translate from german >< )

i havent found a similar problem in this forum yet. If i missed it, show me please.

otherwise it would be great, if some smart dudes could help me. I AM REALLY DESPERATE :'(

thanks a lot

I've noticed that when I'm on the subway listening to music and my signal drops the music cuts out for a second. it does this also when the signal has been re-established as well. I've tried multiple media players, played with any settings I could think of but I'm very new to Android so I'm sure I'm missing something. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this? currently I've been enabling Airplane mode when getting on subways, but I'd rather not have to.
[Epic 4G General] lordsandwich:
I posted about this earlier, it's the cell-signal-found alert cutting into your audio. Short of turning on Airplane Mode there's nothing you can do on wired headphones to avoid it.

You CAN go around the issue with Bluetooth headphones, which for whatever reason don't get interrupted. Sucky solution I know but it works.

I'm trying to install an app (around 5mb) but I get the 'out of space' error. However, the SD/Phone card storage says the my phone has 97mb free.

Has anyone else had this issue? Is there any way to fix this?

I tried installing a different app, same problem.
[Desire General] Marvinfin:
the SD/Phone Card storage is different to where apps are stored, which is on the internal memory. If your running Froyo or even better a custom rom with A2SD+ then you can move some of the apps to your SD card instead and free up some of that internal memory.
[Desire General] brpqzme:
Yeah, I'm on a custom rom :D pinky

I know I could install to SD, but was just wondering why, with 90mb free, it wasn't letting me install to the phone.

thanks for the help

I successfully installed Android and the complimentary programs like radio and whatnot two weeks ago and everything was going smoothly... until last night: My mum was playing the WordFeud app (awesome game, by the way) and a notification to Update the System Software popped up, which she clicked... :(

Now my phone shuts off randomly despite its battery power. Everything else functions normally, although there have been tiny bugs in the SMS, but whatever, it's bearable. Is there anything I can do fix this problem? I'm hoping I won't have to wipe out my SD card and start over, but that's most likely the case...
[HD2 General] ddgarcia05:
Wow, I've never heard of anyone pressing yes. I say you save what you need from the sd-card and reformat the rest. If that doesn't work then task 29 and flash whichever rom you want.

Yeah... I was pretty upset with her, but she didn't know what she was doing lol. Anyway, thanks a mil!

Ps. I'm totally new to this... what do you mean by Task 29? Sorry!
[HD2 General] gaarry:
You should only do Task29 as a last resort since it's probably something on the SD. Don't flash a new ROM unless you really want to, and remember, if you do, ALWAYS FLASH HSPL3 FIRST.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] MattDrumz:
Hey guys, I recently unrooted my phone, which means I'm stuck on 1.5 for now. I went to check for updates, and the 1.6 update is there. However, every time I click download, it says downloading for just a second, then stops.

I've tried rebooting, using wifi, using 3G, and clicking download like crazy. I also tried finding the manual 1.6 update, but I couldn't. Any help?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found the manual update for 1.6. If anybody else needs it, go here.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Phateless:
This happened to me too at first.

Did you use a backup program to restore all your settings while still on 1.5? Data from 1.6 is in there and it prevents the update from taking. Do a factory data reset again and this time wait a day before using a backup program to restore any data. The update will come through in about a day.

During this time you can still download whatever you want from the market and it shouldn't affect anything.

steps to updating

I made this for myself I've done this method before and it does work

im not responsible for any damage to your phone do this at your own risk

updateing mytouch from 1.5 to 1.6

copy DRC92 to root of sd card in no folders

rename DRC92 to update.zip

power down phone

enter recovery mode home+power

Press Home+power again

use trackball to move around

appile update.zip

reboot phone

Remove DRC92(update.zip)

Copy DMD64 to root of sd card in no folders

rename DMD64 to update.zip

power down phone

enter recovery mode home+power

Press Home+power again

use trackball to move around

appile update.zip

reboot phone

now you should be on 1.6

hopefully this help anyone not knowing what to-do.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] chunky_charlie:
This worked perfect for me, thanks for the post!

One question though, this considered a MANUAL update, right? Not an OTA update. Just asking because I'm trying to figure out if I can use the SPL Official method for updating to 2.2, posted in thread 807899.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TattdSailorDude:
Wondering if its safe to delete the second update.zip from my sd card? I went to delete it says "Delete failed- system restriction" and will this prevent me from receiving my 2.2 OTA update?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DEFINITIONOFREAL:
No it shouldn't matter, and there is a manual froyo update as well
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DarkRestraint:
Impatience is a virtue.

I had been running CM5 before I found out about the OTA. Decided to downgrade to 1.5 and wait for the update. Realized (thanks to you helpful cats) that I'd probably need 1.6 in order for the update to go well, but, since Froyo was already available via manual update...

Worked like a charm. DL'd the DRC92 and DMD64 and installed accordingly, then installed all 3 of the OP's files in order and it works like a charm. So far 2.2.1 is a snappy little update and I love the look. Not totally thrilled about the T-Mo branded stuff but it's not intrusive, either.

And now, to root...

[Epic 4G General] mommasboy:
Call them and act like there's a problem with your voicemail or tell them your not receiving your text messages. They're more then likely give you the MSL code to check and see if everything is in order. Or tell them your msid number is wrong or blank. They will have to give you your MSL to reprogram your phone.
[Epic 4G General] Annihil8or:
What do you need the MSL for? I'm not 100% sure what it is used for.

I spoke to a sprint tech and he gave me ##786# and then reset and gave me a 6 digit number. Is that my MSL? The reason I called to speak to sprint was that my phone would say "unknown" when I turned on 4G and would never turn itself on. You can use this excuse if you call them. (The fix to this problem was replacing the phone. Factory reset and re-flashing didn't fix it.)

[Epic 4G General] drewX2:
Thanks this was easy.
[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
Another easy way is this. You will need another working sprint phone. Yes its kinda long and convoluted but it works. Log into your sprint account online. Find the thing that says I want to...Activate new phone. Turn off both phones. Activate the second phone on the account and let it turn off the first one. I forget what screen it is but after the screen that you have to wait while it's activated, there's going to be programming numbers in there. I think the first field is secondary blah blah. Then under that is one time blah blah. The secondary is your msl. You don't need to program the phone like it says on that screen if the phone is used. If it's brand spankin new, then yes you do. Anyways, the screen after that one is the last screen. Turn on the second phone and let it stay on for a few minutes. Make sure you can make calls and use data. To be on the safe side and not confuse the network because you switch phones like every five minutes, wait like thirty minutes to an hour then turn off the second phone. Now go back and do the same routine with the phone you originally wanted the msl. Don't rush it or you might have to call customer care for real to have them fix your mistakes. There was occasions that the data didn't want to come back on so I had to call them from another phone, but that doesn't happen very often. Just give the network some time to change over to the other phone before you start changing things again.

Getprop didn't work on all the phones I've tried. It worked on moment but I couldn't get it to work or find the number with the evo I think.

If all else fails and you don't want to root you can just Odin back DI18 and grab it with connect bot.
