I'm confused... you tried to unroot a phone that wasn't rooted? Maybe you linked the wrong thread in the 6th line of your post?

I think the people poking fun at you thought you had run the OTA and lost root.
[EVO 4G Android Development] awjs:
yes the phone was rooted via unrevoked and it all works fine..

[GUIDE] How to Unroot the EVO in 2 STEPS & [GUIDE] One Click How to Root the EVO with Unrevoked 3.21 Two very good guides by djR3Z....

The new update has a different radio 2.15....9, prl 1.77, and software # meaning 3.29..

I did loose root but with the new update you can use the One Click How to Root the EVO with Unrevoked 3.21 and the phone will be rooted again thats good think I can even flash a custom... The issue that I was trying to let people be aware of is that is they update and use the unrevoked 3.21 to root the phone they wont be able to go back to unrooted just by using the How to Unroot the EVO in 2 STEPS... Thats all I was trying to do...

FOR ALL YOU HATERS I DID FIX IT AND I NOW KNOW WHAT TO DO TO FIX IT BUT YOU CAN ALL WAIT FOR UNREVOKED TO FIX THE TOOL TO WORK WITH THE NEW HBOOT AND RADIO....

This is y I dont post alot because you all never have good **** to say.... all we here is omg there is a new update and the devs are takeing so long to get it to us and when someone tries to give some good info you all talk ****...

I have a Droid X. I recently did a factory reset then upgraded to Froyo. Some of my apps appear in my "app page" and others do not. They show in the market as being downloaded but I can only open them from there. I can't get the icons to show up on my phone. Any Ideas?
[Droid X General] thepolishguy:
Did you try just uninstalling them and reinstalling them?
[Droid X General] ammend:
I did. Still not working. It's more of an annoyance than anything else. I just don't like when a $600 gadget can't do something that's so simple as replace my app icons after a reset. Plus, the apps that I have downloaded since the reset aren't being posted to my app page either.
[Droid X General] Pitnefor:
Have you tried rebooting?
[Droid X General] generic.imitation:
are you using launcherpro and maybe hid the icons?
[Droid X General] gobbles23:
I had one app that was hidden in the market the day of the upgrade. The next day it showed up in searches so I was able to download it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d1verjim:
Hi all,

I have just bought a Galaxy S on eBay, and it's locked to Three (in the UK btw). Whilst I wait for the unlock code (I'm on an O2 sim only contract), I thought I'd ask people for their advice on whether I should stick to the Three ROM, or should I root it and put a base Samsung ROM on it?

Also - what does this mean for me in terms of upgrades (thinking Froyo obviously). Do I need to get a Three specifics upgrade, and how do I get that if I'm not a Three customer?

I have searched the forum, and read lots of discussions of ROMs, but was hoping for some advice for my situation from any of the hugely experienced peeps on here.

Cheers,

James.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
start with the wiki

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S_Series

it has everything you need to know, including the unlock code

the best advice is to not go crazy on the ROMs unless you want to fix something in specific
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d1verjim:
Thanks for that. I read that unlock stuff, but unfortunately as I don't have a Three SIM, I can't get onto the market to download the necessary stuff.

I do think it's a bit strange you can't sign into your google account etc over wifi, but figure that's partly how they keep the phone locked to a provider.

James.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
that doesn't sounds right

i always unlock and download the rooting stuff over WiFi

i don't even need to use the phone as a mass storage device, because WiFi works right off the bat

what happens when you try to go on the internet using WiFi?

are you able to go to Cnn.com or google.com login to your gmail account in the phone browser?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d1verjim:
Hi Allgamer,

thanks for your reply - sorry I've not responded till now!

I could connect to the internet, but not sign into my google account. Don't know what the problem was, but I got round it by performing a factory reset of the phone.

All sorted now.

I do still have an issue with some 3 apps like Skype starting themselves up and consuming resources, despite the fact I can't use them over the O2 network :(

Loving the phone otherwise though. I've rooted it and installed the OneClickLagFix. Waiting eagerly for Froyo though.

I have a framework-res.apk to give me battery % on the top bar, but im not sure how to install it... Can someone help please?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adevem:
use Astro File Manager and open it. you should be at /sdcard. then press "UP" and you should be at / now.

all in all. navigate to /system/framework and replace the framwork-res.apk file.

do backup your original apk file incase things don't work out.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ADeadlySpoon:
Right I tried that, with Astro I can't copy files to root directories (above /sdcard/) I tried EStrongs file manager and it says it can't be copied... Is there any reason it won't work?

Or is there another way of doing this?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adevem:
hmm weird. it worked for me, judging from your signature you're rooted so... i have no idea. paid solutions like root explorer and all, or adb. isn't the battery modification done via an update.zip now? it's easier and way automated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ADeadlySpoon:
Yeah it's rooted and it had worked before but when this method didn't work again I thought I was doing it wrong.

I'll have a look for the thread again when I'm home and see what it says and if there's an update.zip.

Thanks for the help :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adevem:

Right, got myself a galaxy, brilliant phone, battery life still appaling (just switched off of HTC Touch Pro :D ).

Now i dont have any illusions on running wm6 apps on android, but i'm pretty sure something can be done about j2me.

I have loads of games from my motorola razor times and would like to revisit them. Particularly DoomRPG and that other game with elves and orcs...

Tl;dr: Any way to run j2me stuff on android 2.1?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rain_1:
Yes, you actually can. There's a wrapper for JAVA applications. Not all of them work, but most games do.

It even has a virtual "keypad", but it's kinda buggy and you have to mess around in the options for it. There's multiple virtual controller options and some work better than others.

AFAIK, it's not available on the market, but you can download it from the official site: http://www.netmite.com/
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sliex:
How do you install your own midlets onto SGS ? the app only lets me dl it off the net... or is it just me ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rain_1:
While it seems that the APP only allows you to play with games on their list, that's not the case.

I personally upload the .JAR to a website I own and then I select them browsing the internet on my phone. It downloads the game and installs automatically (like a regular .apk).

I don't know if you can just copy the .jar to the phone memory and run it from there. I believe you have to download from the Internet, as selecting it from a file browser simply says that there's nothing to open that filetype. When downloading from a homepage, the browser opens up the application and it auto-installs to you.

[Legend General] TheGrammarFreak:
Does the Legend kernel have support for loop devices?

EDIT:

Well, I pulled the config file from my legend and the dumfuq OC kernel looks like it might do, but I'm not sure if it's commented out... Also, we need the loop devices in order to mount the Ubuntu images, so if support isn't there someone is gonna have to compile a few kernels that do have it...

EDIT:

Argh!!! I can't even download the sodding files needed, my internet keeps dropping out.
[Legend General] smartvinu:
Buddy

Follow the instructions here

http://nexusonehacks.net/nexus-one-hacks/how-to-install-ubuntu-on-your-nexus-oneandroid/

I had made a little change to the bootubuntu script , to make it work for legend

Download it from here

http://10stones.com/ubuntu/bootubuntu

I had tried it on stock rom , 2.1 update 2 , with temporary root access using the Universal And Root .

make sure you ran the "sh ./ubuntu.sh" command each time you change the bootubuntu.

Since mine was a temporary root i pushed the busybox binary to /data/ using

adb push busybox /data/

download the busybox binary from here

http://10stones.com/ubuntu/busybox

** For custom roms the busybox will be installed.

If you are facing any problems reply with the output of commands.
[Legend General] jinxul:
how i can change the script ?

with sdk and cmd ?

tnx
[Legend General] TheGrammarFreak:
Something ain't working here. The script fails (see below) then I get a forced reboot...
[Legend General] smartvinu:
what is the busybox version .. ?

I tried with 1.16.1

also check if you have enough phone memory
[Legend General] TheGrammarFreak:
Busybox 1.16.2

How much phone memory is enough?

I tried some more tinkering and now I just get an error about /bin/bash not existing whenever I try and run ubuntuboot...
[Legend General] smartvinu:
Can u try with the busybox i uploaded
[Legend General] TheGrammarFreak:
Still no joy...

This clearly throws a large number of errors, I just don't know why. The first command I issue is "su"

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grifforama:
Hello.

So, I'm coming from a rooted HTC Hero on Sprint. I had Cyanogen's 2.2 running nicely, and was ready for an upgrade.

Sprint dinged me on the anniversary upgrade options, so I decided to jump to big red and go for the Dinc.

Very glad I did, and I rooted immediately, loading up Virtuous 2.7 and a new kernel (King's no.4)

Thing is, I'm really suffering.

My reception as home and all over my neighborhood is appalling. Dropped call after dropped call. 3G to 1X to 3G to 1X...etc.etc.

My battery life is really killing me. I've got SetCpu to 245Mhz screen off, syncing as little as I can throughout the day, but I'm still down 29% in 2 hours !!

It kills me to say, but as I'm still within my 30 days, I'm really having to ask myself is it worth it ?

I can't for the life of me think what I can do to make the battery life better, apart from buying one of thhose big ass batteries.

And as for the signal, Verizon recommend I change the phone. Could it really be something to do with the phone ? Surely it's software (radio) related, and as I'm on the official 2.15.00.07.28 would changing the phone even do anything ?

:(
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdavis42:
First sink try in set CPU pressing menu then select the second option, not device select. If that doesn't work try switching kernels. If that doesn't work do a double wipe,dalvic wipe, and battery stats wipe then reinstall the rom then the kernel.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhillyCheez:
you also have to understand that the stock battery is only 1300 mah!

I bought the OEM 1500 mah (fits in original case!) and it's practically a normal phone now. also, try a different kernel if not the powersaving kernel that came with virtuous 2.7

i have had good results with hydras kernel as well.

keep your setcpu profiles to a minimum if not uninstall the app. i recommend trying out the kernels before using setcpu to see how it does first.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardax:
That sucks, and will kill your battery in the way you describe.

I'm assuming that you've tried *228 Option 2 to update PRLs recently? You can also try the 2.15.00.09.01 Radio and see if it helps, but I don't expect that it will.

It doesn't matter what you do in software if the hardware is bum. It's entirely possible that you have a bad phone, and I'd take up Verizon's offer to exchange it if they think you should be getting better signal than you are.

If you're really interested in any further tests with this phone, wipe and RUU back to stock, and don't install and 3rd party apps. See what your signal and battery life look like. If they're still terrible, either something's wrong with your phone or you live in a lead box or Faraday cage.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan062:
verizon

I love my incredible and verizon, but all that goes out the window when service is not there. I would try stock kernel for sure and if that doesn't work i would unroot and then call verizon and what they are willing to do. radios, kernels, roms make any difference if you are in a dead spot. I'm sure they want to keep you as a customer see what they say, and if you don't like the answer hello EVO!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Epicardium:
dB readings?

Can you see what the dB readings are in the the settings menu? Mine sit around -105 at my house, which is borderline no signal but I still complete and maintain calls just fine. I'm wondering if yours is the radio, or if there is something software-related that's causing the crazy signal drops.

BTW, the Incredible, in my estimation, does have relatively weak signal compared to some other phones I've owned (Env3, Eris).
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grifforama:
It's strange.

I've unrooted and gone back to stock.

I also made a trip out to Manhattan today, and my signal was strong pretty much everywhere.

However, walking my neighborhood, it fluctuates between -62 and -80 (where it is currently at my home)

Thing is, I get constant call drops, even at -73.

The other odd thing is that I've seen the bars go from 1 bar at -72 to 4 bars at -61 and then down to 1 bar at -78 to 2 bars at -78. There doesn't seem to be aby consistency at all. I'm wondering if they've got the same problem as Apple where there formula for displaying signal is just wrong.

My other issue is with the data signal going form 3G to 1X around my area. I spoke to Verizon who told me that (in their words) they "Own" my area, and signal should be strong. I disagree, and I regularly go down to 1X walking from my house to my coffee shop, all of 5 blocks away. If they "owned" my area, then surely I should be lit up all the way there....

I may just take up their offer of an exchange of phone, just to be sure, but now seeing my signal in Manhattan, I'm not so sure. I think they have a bad area where I live, and they need to address it.

I love this frickin' phone. It's amazing. I don't see the need for me to change this over the next couple of years, it's that good.

One last point. I have also noted that my GPS is, to put no finer point on it, ****ing dreadful.

Sitting where I am now, it's telling me I live in the middle of the East River.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bpackard:
Is there a way to take slow-motion video with the Vibrant camera? I know that the droid-X has one but i cant find a port or anything that will work on the vibrant.

so if anyone knows if there is either a port of the Droid X camera or maybe a slow-motion app I would appreciate it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chuckbass:
The way most consumer digital cameras do slow-motion video (and video at all) is to record many different frames on the camera's CCD chip. The Vibrant's CCD, for example, can take 2560x1920 still images. It also records 1280x720 video at 30fps. To do this, it puts 4 different frames on the CCD, one after another. (1280 times 2 is 2560, so you can fit two frames across and two frames down, so that's 4 images on the CCD at once.)

To do slow-motion video, you just need to subdivide the CCD even further to fit more frames on it. This is why cameras that support slow-motion video record it in lower resolution--you're not really speeding up capture so much as stuffing more frames on a single CCD, which has limits in how quickly it can refresh.

On the Vibrant, you could theoretically do 120fps in 640x480 resolution by subdividing the CCD into a 4x4 grid (instead of the 2x2 is uses to do 720p 30fps). This gives 4 times as many frames per CCD refresh, which means 120fps. (Or you could do 720x640 at 60fps by subdividing into a 4x2 grid--half the pixels of a 1280x720 at twice the frame rate.)

Are the camera hardware drivers open source? My knowledge of Android stops at the API--I've never done any low-level device driver programming. If you can get the camera driver source, this should be possible. But I have no idea how difficult it would be.

(I'd love to see this feature, though--I found this thread searching around to see if anyone had done it already.)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arkasai:
Bump. I'm assuming this is a development dead end until we get the camera driver source...but it'd still be awesome to have this feature on more Android devices.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultracrix:
chuckbass... what you says is no sense, forgive me, but that isn't the way slow motion works, if there is a way to get a frame from an area of the ccd and subdivide in 2x2 you will get 4 incoherent images cos each will be sepparated by half resolution

Slowmotion it's dependant on how fast you can get the whole frame from the CCD, resize, apply some compresion or not, and store

in this part the RAM memory has a vital role

the proccess is:

1) get the whole frame from ccd, it's can be done by api's, but I think may be slow, but you need to test first, but through apis is more compatible

2) resize the frame, at least you can get a resized by hardware image, I think through apis the cdd can return an jpg

3) store to ram in raw mode or the jpg

repeat at fast the cpu can until fill the reserved ram

this may works to do a burst slow motion for a few second but very fast frame rate

another ways is to apply an algorithm and store in ram just if it's necesary but better to store directly into a fast SD memory to record continuously, here you can do test to find the max memory you can store to SD and maybe not using compression but just store in raw mode (like a bmp, or rle bmp)

there is no relation with resolution/frame rate and how much slowmotion you can do

I mean, if you can record 1280x720@30 that doesn't necessary means a 320x180@120

samsung omnia i900 can get arround 120 fps in 320x240 in a low bitrate video, works fine with good light, and 640x480@20

Galaxy S can record 1280x720@30, but has a better cpu and gpu

It's depends on cpu power, and/or gpu (and not in MHz)

I don't know about android programming, and just a few useless things in winmo, but I'm glad if I can help with anything

it's seems that not much ppl is interested on slowmotion, funny, cos is a very nice feature!

if there slowmotion in galaxy S or optimus 3D I will buy, but for now I will get a Casio EX-F100 and a Nintendo 3DS soon :)
