I would not put any lagfixes on your Bell i9000m with froyo on it! Many have lost the internal SD card.

i am one of those unfortunate People :mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedauntlessone:
Froyo and lagfix aren't killing the phones. The internal SDs are just defective in the first place. Better kill it now than kill it later (if you have warranty).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
the problem is the phone is out of stock in a lot of places

even if you kill it now, you wont be able to get a replacement anytime soon

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fusion06:
I just booted into Android and it said there was a software update. it downloaded, but of course won't install on my phone because it's running from the card and my phone turns off and boots back into windows whenever i hit 'install now'. does anybody know what the update is? it says it has new features and new performances so i'm dying to know what it is. did anyone else get this message recently? :confused:

Errr why would you need them? We get the latest greatest Android builds right here on XDA. We're probably ahead of the game anyway with regard to features thanks to the awesome developers here! :D

it's 2.2.1 update OTA
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] stonesolouk:
Use your file manager to located the downloaded update file, open it on your desktop, extract the contents of the patch folder and put them into your current Android folder. Reboot and it should've updated.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jadillac1181:
What does the update do anyway? Will it mess up our system since it's a custom build?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] philipdeane:
Sorry if there's and alternate thread going on somewhere, I don't see the update working by simply adding the patch file contents to the root of the Android folder...or is it just me ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bravo261:
got that right
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] philipdeane:
...or a different scenario could be that some people are still using older builds, say Darkstones Froyo 2.1 build from 18th Aug, because they've had no probs and wondered if it was possible to update?

Poor Darkstone's a busy man judging from the work he's done lately...hate to keep pestering the guy for an update ;)

Thanks anyway.

Just wondering Ive been trying to watch movies but I cant figure out how to watch them good on the evo. I've tried arc media with my avi's but the audio doesn't sync good with the movies. I also tried converting them to mpeg4 cause I read that is the best format for the HTC player but then the file is enormous and I have to empty my memory card just to put it on. So my question is how does everyone here watch movies on there evos what is the best video app or converter and format for my pc and if there are any apps like media hub that the galaxy phones have?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeren:
HOLY RUN-ON SENTENCE BATMAN

I just use Handbrake to convert to mp4, at the same time shrinking it to about 300mb and use the stock video player- works great.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylan6879:
lol there are some periods in there. Thx ill try that sounds a lot better than a 7gb movie. Now besides for that are there any programs similar to media hub I can rent movies or buy em right on my phone

Ok so i deleted the brightness.apk in the system and supposedly its suppose to disable the brightness slider on the notification bar. But it doesn't anyone know how its driving me crazy. i always accidentally make it max brightness when pulling down my notifications.

Please Help.

Thanks i would appreciate it.
[Epic 4G General] Dameon87:
I don't even have a brightness slider in the notification bar o.O
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
Your brightness doesnt adjust when u slide your finger across the notification bar? The black part? Left & Right? Do u have auto brightness on? Thats the only way i know how to disable it.
[Epic 4G General] Dameon87:
Whoaa o.O Learn something new everyday lmao. I never have noticed that. Sorry to mess your thread up lol

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
How did you go about rooting in the first place? One click root?

If so, grab the root.zip file from wherever you extracted it, stick it on your internal sd card and rename it to update.zip- and just because I'm feeling extra generous tonight, I've attached said root.zip

(This one is a couple versions old, but it should update through the market after you apply it)

Thanks much! I think this needs to be a sticky! :)
[S740, S743 General] ocedric:
hey...

just follow the service manual, the phone is *quite* easy to disassemble...

Just one remark : when yo get your old screen, check all the sticky plastics are present on the new one. if not, get the old ones and put them on the new.

I ordered a new screen some weeks ago, got it, and placed it. it didn't work, I think it was because two connectors touched a part of metal... after checking I saw the plastic present on old wasn't on new.... I think it was the problem......

(btw, the s740 screen is really not tough....)
[S740, S743 General] myrandex:
Eh I performed a screen replacement on my fiance's Rose and using the manual helped, but it still wasn't easy in my opinion. All of that conducting tape wasn't the easiest to deal with, and putting it back down was no where as neat as it originally was. And the replacement screen is much darker than the original, although when off they look identical. One of her keys is a bit mushy now too, as the cable in the back was a bit longer than the original so it was folded up in the phone which I don't think helped things out.

Just built a ROM with the 3.14 base and radio - 21916, 2018 sense, etc.. Used warrenb213's shubcraft mod and was having problems here and there. So I got JDMS 1.3 and used michyprima's new kernel r0 - and holy****.. When I picked up a call, I was suprised to hear what didn't sound like a munchkin/alien. Amazing.. So I can tx/rx calls with no issues at all. Well, actually.. there was a complaint of an echo.. but I'm pretty sure that has something to do with mic gain.. anyways, i can't hear the echo so screw em :D I'm happy.

is equal or drain battery excessive in compare with radio 2.12 ?

if i am not wrong, the SPL for the new rom is 2.10, do we have a HSPL that has 2.10 SPL ?

[Vibrant General] rhonal89:
i know there are like 20 other bricked vibrant threads but mine is a unick question.

alright so i called t mobile like 3 day ago. and i told them i had a phone witch would not boot into recovery threw the key so they send me a new one. so the one i had at home i tried to unroot but some how i ended up bricking the phone. the problem with the phone is i cant boot into recovery since my phone is hardware lock. and when i tried to plug the phone to the charger it would start charging and the freeze on me. and also when i turn the phone on it would show me the vibrant screen and then it would go black and the key lights up, help and dont show me the booting s screen after the vibrant screen it goes black. and would i have any problem if i send this phone to tmobile bricked even thought i called for a hardware defective phone.
[Vibrant General] NoDataFound:
Try crying. SRY... meant searching.
[Vibrant General] rhonal89:
can i just send the old one back. it was ok before i tried to unroot. i have a new one but as you read i got it because i told them i had a hardware defective phone.
[Vibrant General] rudeguy:
If they have already authorized the swap, you are good.

Tmo is very root friendly. Two of their top app picks this month are setcpu and ROM manager.

I've swapped out 2 phones that were rooted with them without a hassle. The last time I swapped my myTouch, I didn't even bother taking Froyo off it. Not a peep from them.
[Vibrant General] rudeguy:

[Vibrant General] rhonal89:
Thank you!!!! Very much. You just took a big waight of my shoulders. Am now happy since the new phone they send me can boot into recovery and also is not laggy at all and gps can pin point were I am in like 4 seconds. And the market opens up withought having to take seconds to load the apps.
[Vibrant General] rudeguy:
no problem. I was scared to death when I took my Vibrant in the first time. I re-paritioned the internal SD instead of my external. This was before I was ok with Odin and within HOURS of buying the phone. The guy took a look at my phone and asked me what I did to it. I told him and he promptly grabbed me a new phone. He swapped it out in their computer and said "See you tomorrow!"

I <3 Tmo.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jigga123:
Hi All,

I'm having problems with reinstalling using update.zip. I did not update jh7 yet and was trying to take off the circle battery mod.

I put my original framework-res.apk into the update.zip file and rebooted into recovery mode. I chose reinstall packages and I get

"installing from the sdcard...

finding update package...

opening update package....

E: cant open /sdcard/update.zip

(bad)"

I checked that I didn't name it update.zip.zip and it wasn't.

I tried different original update.zip files I had for the circle batt mod and they didn't work.

I tried a different framework-res.apk file in case mine was corrupt but same thing.

I tried downloading new update.zip for the circle batt mod and replacing the framework-res.apk and same thing.

So 2 things.

1. I'm stumped as to why the update.zip doesn't work since it worked the first time I changed the battery indicator

2. Is there another way to replace the framework-res.apk

thanks.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stringbeans:
So I FAINTLY remember being able to utilize the front-facing camera with the camera app that came stock on the phone (using the sgs vibrant from bell).

sometime inbetween then and now I replaced the stock camera software with the one that came with the sgs captivate because of reviews that it was superior to the vibrant's software... but now i cant seem to find the option to take a picture using the ffc.

This is the thread I found it in: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=751031

I'm thinking of reinstalling the stock camera software posted by the user, but now I'm afraid that because the vibrant in the states doesnt actually have a ffc, the stock software posted wont actually have the option to use the ffc. :confused:

Do any of you know if the stock camera software posted there has the ability to use the ffc? or perhaps there's a way to use the ffc in the captivate camera software?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oswade:
For some reason i find it hard to find aswell. But its definitely there on my i9000.

On the left hand side of the screen, there are four option buttons. Click on the top one, which is a rectangular shape. Then the top right mode is "self shot".

Hope that helps.

It was a cool discovery for me too. Saddly it is probably the worst function on a this great camera app. "digital" zoom stinks. It should be called instant quality degrade button.

Love the camera tho...
[Vibrant General] ookas:
there's no hardware button for taking pictures though -_-
[Vibrant General] 12paq:
True. I do however like how I can push and hold the shutter screen button to lock in focus with a green box, then release the button by pulling my finger away to almost reduce all camera shake. No camera shake = sharper shots.

Best point and shoot I have ever used, but I'm a photographer by trade so I only have used a few point and shoot cameras. I like this one, but who the hell am I? ;-)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dbG33K:
As the title states, I am a super noob when it comes to rooting, and I've been trying to root my Motorola Cliq. I've been nearly bricked, so I've decided I'd ask around instead of trying to figure it out myself. Before I ask my questions, here's the facts:

SYSTEM VERSION: Blur_Version.1.3.20.MB200.Orange.en.FR

(The thing is, I live in and purchased the phone from T-Mobile in USA. I think I may have loaded a ROM or something that was for the FR version of the phone :o

It runs too slow, and main reason for rooting is to increase performance speed and whatever other perks come with rooting are certainly welcome. :)

Questions:

What is the easiest way to root my phone?

How can I check whether or not my phone was successfully rooted?

After rooting, what is the best, most functional, and most stable ROM I can apply to my phone, without losing too many features?

Thanks in advance, I really appreciate it!

I saw a lot of people asking for pink-ish girly themes and stuff in the treads so with the help of Gimpsta's site I made this keyboard, its a

hi res keyboard should work on ANY Droid Incredible rom. I'm hoping that by adding this more people will start making some girly themes for the Ladies in our community!!!

this Keyboard is the standard HTC_IME keyboard so should work flawlessly with anything.... anyways here is a pic of it and if i get some responses I'll post the apk

as i need to find a host :)

HOPEFULLY this host will work better than the last one i tried :).. get the apk here http://www.mediafire.com/?mh4ijf5tutjtvu1

:INSTALLING: rename your stock HTC_IME keyboard and then install this one.

easiest way to do it is to download "astro file manager" from the market, free app and put this on the root of your SD card and you can install it from there!

this is the first thing i have ever done but I'm learning and plan on doing ALOT more... for you guys, you can go to gimpsta's website http://www.gimpsta.com/themer/main.php and in about 10 mins you can make a keyboard for your wives, lady friends or mistresses lol it walks you through it step by step and you can even have her sit down with you and pick how she wants it to look :)

As I said before it got lost in the forum crash, I'm pretty sure you just need to copy files from the Captivate version (thread 756627) or original Desire version (thread 756627) into the Fascinate's framework-res.apk and then reinstall that. Will work on it when my phone arrives.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] wasupwithuman:
nah already tried that... you have to exit the .xml to update that there is new images for the battery too.... we need an xml person, i promise. :)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Threax:
Hello,

I too was interested in this mod so I went ahead and ported it to the Fascinate. :D

My framework-res.apk is from dh12 I am unsure if this works with the update. There is a readme in the zip file that explains how to install. This is not an update.zip you must push my framework-res.apk using adb or some other method.

I take no responsibility if you brick your phone with this. Make a backup and follow the directions in the readme file. It seems to work ok on my phone, but I'm not going to sit there and watch it drain every percentage point ;)

I take no credit for this I just modified what I found on the OP's linked thread. What I implemented was the battery with the number inside, but you can use any of the other types by replacing the pngs in my framework-res.apk with 7-zip.

If there are any problems let me know.

Enjoy.

Excellent, yea that framework should work, I have switched from both systems without doing the full update and my phone has been fine.
