look at the other thread of cyanogenmod 7 development for Samsung Galaxy 5 device:))
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] psyke83:
Since I'm a developer of the Cyanogen port for this phone, let me answer:

Until the major bugs are fixed, we recommend you use Froyo. However, you will probably enjoy testing Cyanogen 7 for a day or so, if you can forgive the bugs.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Andii S.:
Froyo on my phone via kies (germany) you can find the link to the rom in mad team forums

Hello everyone, I'm here to ask you is anyone had problems with updating G5 though Kies. I have now, I tried a hundred times but its always the same: it downloads the firmware but when it comes to putting the firmware on the phone it says that the problem is in phone. Please help..
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Delta25:
yes yes and BRICK

if you load froyo on your phone, it will work perfectly

if you load cyanogenmod for our device on your phone (subpsyke one) it will work perfectly

if you load galaxy S cyanogenmod on your device, you will brick and your phone wont boot anymore

solved :)

I have updated my phone to Foyo 2.2 from Samfirmware. In kies I did not see update. I also contact Samsung service center. In India there is no official update.

I used I5503DXJP8 from Samfirmaware.com

In my current ROM - Indic font rendering is not working properly. I replaced DroidSansFallback.ttf in font folder. It is having right font now, however Conjuncts are not working. Any idea about that..

Also is it taken care in Cyanogen 7

Its a new phone, me like it now.

I would definitly choose Cyanogen over original rom.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] guareire:
I used the 2.2 update from samfirmware. 1. the only available at the time (I think it was south america). Then I updated to 2.2 from Europeincluding the latest one. Benchmark test (Quadrant) where around 500 pts.

Flashed yesterday CyanogenMod V1.5 and have a new phone :D

Benchmark at 600 -> ~1550:cool:

at 768 -> ~1850:eek:

It looks to be stable and all phone stuff works fine.

Thanks to subpsyke for all the work and sweat he put into it and all the others on this project

Win 7 x64

AT&T Xperia X10a

I was trying to root my X10a, using the one click method (X10Root.1.0.8.apk), and got hung up when trying to side load the app. ADB nor SWM could find the device. I finally got ADB to find my device. Here is how I got it to work.

Xperia- have debugging on

- have titanium backup free installed

- have busy body free installed

- do NOT mound SD

- have allow mock locations on

- have stay awake on

PC- have pc companion installed BUT terminate the process

- have the android sdk installed. (when installing I just installed everything)

- have android-sdk_r07-windows folder in C:/

- I changed the folder name above (android-sdk_r07-windows) to sdk

- have X10Root.1.0.8.apk file in C:/

- if google calander sync installed exit it.

With X10 plugged in and all above met.

Open command prompt

Type or copy and paste(if you changed folder name) cd C:\sdk\tools

Hit enter

Type adb kill-server

Hit enter

Type adb shell

Hit enter

Type adb install C:\X10Root.1.0.8.apk

Hit enter

Now the app should be on your phone. I hope this helps some AT&T X10 owners out there. Everyone keep up the good work.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UgiPletzet:
Hi all.

Got my SGS a couple of weeks ago, and (almost) all is great.

I spend most of my time inside the university (I live on campus) and all of the web traffic here passes through a proxy server. Problem is - some of the apps (including the Market) just can't see the connection.

I have (of course) the right Advanced Network Settings (proxy server and port), and this sorts out some of the apps (like the default browser and gmail app), but the market is unreachable, and FB app (for example) can't access the net as well.

Some more data:

I'm running 2.1.

There is no problem to access these sites using a desktop/laptop computer.

I don't use 3G, relying only on WiFi.

Proxy server has no authentication.

Everything works perfectly whenever I leave campus.

Is there anything I can do?

Would this issue be resolved in the (hopefully) forthcoming 2.2 upgrade?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livewires:
Hey do you have to log in to go online. At my past college and my current uni all android phones where you had to log in via the browser didn't work. However my friend with a Desire with 2.2 can log in, this maybe a wild guess but maybe the updated browser allows for the log in procedures to work, im not sure what its written in, javascript, php, asp no idea but that's my guess> Ive got the same problem if you get it to work let me know and if you know someone with froyo can you ask them to try or maybe its just with newer HTC phones.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UgiPletzet:
Thanks for the reply.

I don't need to log in, there's no authentication, and still there's no access.

It feels like a dodgy implementation of the proxy settings in Android, and I really hope they fix it in 2.2, because it makes my phone really crippled.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] suzaku:
can i but more than 1 android build on the same card and manually run whichever i want? and if yes then how?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Fa1n7:
Yes, you just have to rename the folders of the builds you don't want to use and name "Android" to the one you have chosen. ^^ Is that what you mean?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
For each build you have you must change the default name of the android folder to something like android1.

Then edit your startup.txt to reflect this set cmdline "rel_path=Android1"

Then you can have as many builds as you want.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] suzaku:
cool thanks guys

but there's something that confuses me; when running android it creates many folders on the SD card itself not inside the Android folder. so if i put another build on the same card, wouldn't that conflict with the old one's folders?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
doesnt bother my builds
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] suzaku:
great gonna try it out :D thanks a lot
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] stfn74:
I've gone through the exact same questions and concerns. There was no topic like this one so I just went ahead and gave it a try. I put several builds in separate folders and edited the Startup.txt accordingly, as suggested in one of the previous posts. Sure enough, there were common folders that all builds were using, such as ".Android" and a few more. However, it was not an issue, at least for me. On the contrary, it was an unexpected advantage. For example, on one build I installed and configured AppBrain Web Push with a list of about a dozen autoinstall apps. As soon as I switched to a different version, all those apps automatically loaded on the first boot :)

I suspect same will happen with for example camera shots, bookmarks, although didnt have the time to experiment.

I can defintely say I saw no issues in putting more than one Andorid build on one SD card.

EDIT: I'm not talking about the battery cover. I'm talking about the glass (when you remove the cover) that covers the lens.

I don't know how this happened, probably a pencil in my pocket, but the glass that protected the camera sensor broke. It can't focus anymore without the lens.

Anyone know where I can buy a replacement?
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
Pretty sure it doesn't matter, considering I can take the back of my phone off and it'll focus. It's just a little thin piece of plastic to protect the camera.

There's no real lens involved.
[Nexus One General] ericc191:
Call HTC and ask for a replacement battery cover. When they ask why, tell them your battery cover squeaks a lot and doesn't fit correctly.

I got a new one for free.. fixed my squeak problem too.
[Nexus One General] trinode:
Was gonna say, I couldn't focus mine lately, then i realised I had touch to focus on (latest CM6 nightlies include it) so I had to touch the screen to focus it then take the pic, if you know it's the glass then ignore me...

[Nexus One General] Falcon11:
anyone know how to order a new one?
[Nexus One General] tr.slate:
Hmm, if you're talking about the square glass piece under the battery cover, it looks to me like its just a thin layer of plain glass, like a slide cover for a microscope. But under it you can see there seems to be an actual convex lens which most likey works with another internal lens. If you cant get focus im betting it because something pressed hard enough that it damaged the aperture or an internal lens. You prob need to send it back for repair. Im guessing your aperture is f'ed though.
[Nexus One General] mrcrassic:
Same thing happened to me. Just remove it and you'll be fine. I'm not sure what its function is though, but I believe all HTC lens use the same cover, so you can probably find a broken G1 or something and switch it from there. If you decide to do that, be very careful when you remove it, as it's very fragile.

I just did it ... better cut just kinda holds your hand and walks you through it.

But.... feeling nice i will tell you what I did.

I installed better cut then found icon packs I wanted to use.

Step 1: long press on the home screen and select shortcuts

Step 2: select better cut from the list of shortcuts.

Step 3: select the application you wish to use.

step 4: press change icon and find the icon you wish to use.

step 5: press create and voila your done.

[HTC Aria General] ksnax:
I just got my Aria last week and love it except for the issue of bluetooth sound quality. Coming from a Fuze, using the same H560 earset I was using with the Fuze, the sound is muted with the Aria. It's like the high frequencies have been cut out or bit rate reduced with the link. I notice it as much as people on the other end of the call.

I've searched several different ways for solutions/notes on the issue, but nothing I found has addressed this. Please post a link if you got it or my search skills simply suck, or comment if you have ideas!

Is there a setting that can be changed to improve the quality? Or is this simply an issue of a specific device being only marginally compatible? I'm still on the stock ROM and not opposed to flashing a new one if it will fix the issue, but obviously knowing that there is probably nothing wrong with the H560, I'm reluctant to replace it.

okay, i just did a clean install of cognition 2.1.4 (took phone back to stock, rooted, then did a new install of it) ... and everything seems to be working okay other then i can not get my SD to mount on computer ...

it comes up asking me what way i would like the USB to connect when plugged in but after i select the correct one .. and then access the pull down menu to mount the drives it just does not give me the selection to do so ...

am i overlooking a step? something that is maybe different from the normal way to do it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
I've had this happen before, but generally a phone reboot will fix it- occasionally the problem is related to my USB port and I have to switch too. It's a really intermittent issue, but I haven't heard anyone else reporting that they're experiencing this consistently using the new Cog
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silenzzzz:
hmmm will reboot a few times and try another usb port and see if that makes a difference for me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
If no, maybe try toggling around the settings. If you've got Kies installed make sure it isn't running, double check that it's in Mass Storage mode, etc. Reflashing would really be a last resort
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silenzzzz:
do have kies installed, but it is not running ... have usb set on phone to ask each time i connect ... select mass storage mode ... tried setting it as default with no luck ... turned debugging on and back off ...

tried 2 other ports on computer and a second cable ...

so far 0 luck .. it works fine before i flash to Cog .. then it just stops for me ... i see that USB is connected on phone .. but it will not let me click on it to bring up the mount / dismount window ...

already did a reflash .. this is the issue i was having (along with a missing android keyboard) with my last install so i made sure it was a clean one this time ...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
Weird =/ If you've tried all that and it still isn't working I'm not sure what to think. Obviously it's tied to Cog, though I'm not sure why others haven't reported the issue- and this is new with the 2.1.4 version? Did prior versions work?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silenzzzz:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobius911:
Turn debugging on. Do not choose a connection type; that just forces you to turn debugging off first. Connect USB, pull down notifications, and choose the one that says something like click to download files (not near computer now so I can't check).

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
Nope, won't screw anything up, it'll just delete whatever contents you've stored on your internalSD (Not to be confused with your NAND where your OS and apps are installed)

Edit: Glad the steps posted by mobius worked!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silenzzzz:
ahhh ok thanks for the clarification .. i wasn't sure if it was safe to delete some stuff off the internal SD ... but now i see it is ... it may affect an app or two though when doing so ... but not the os it's self...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
Yeah some apps tend to default to save some of their data to the internalSD (Camera/Titaniumbackup) but will store most of their mission critical data to the NAND, so at worst you'd lose game saves, pictures, or titanium backup data that you could recreate afterwards
