[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragoth12:
The Internal SD is a partition on the phones Hard drive. It is part of the main drive which is split into two partitions. One for the phone OS files, the other as an Internal Storage Device.

As I am no expert on Hard drive recovery, especially in Cell Phones, I can't say for sure if you will be able to recover the files. The only way it would be possible as far as I know, would be to access the hard drive via a PC.

This is the only method I know of to save it. Get a bag of rice,stick the phone in it for a day or two, if it still doesnt boot, call it a day. Im not being a wiseass, rice has desicating properties.

[Touch HD General] RotaryFreak:
I have never flashed a custom rom before and i would like to find out something before i do. Will flashing a custom rom make me lose my service provider's MMS/SMS settings and such? Thanks, james.
[Touch HD General] Chef_Tony:
that depends.

phone settings like the sms service center or call forwarding, call barring... are stored partly on the network, partly on the sim card, therefore they will never be lost.

the mms settings are stored on the phone but will most likely be installed automatically, together with the internet settings, when the out of box experience (OOBE) starts (it's the welcome wizard). it reads your sim card and offers you the right settings and installs them on its own.

you will, however, lose all your personal data, contacts, sms, mail, appointments...

as well as all installed programs, so create a backup of your pim data using outlook-activesync, pimbackup or ms myphone and keep the cabs for your apps ready.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
As chef stated you'll lose all data on your device, so as I tell everyone else, you need to backup everything first!!!!

[Fascinate General] mjolnirmkii:
Since the Fascinate kernel doesn't have the tunnel module included (that I know of), is there any other way to install the tun.ko module on the fascinate so I can then configure VPNC and connect to my office Cisco VPN using IPSec/UDP?

Or does anyone know of any other methods to allow the fascinate to connect to Cisco VPNs with group authentication?

Thanks!
[Fascinate General] gardndj:
I believe tun.ko is device specific, so it would have to be compiled for the Fascinate's kernel. I would imagine that will be done once 2.2 drops and custom roms/kernels begin to appear, unless someone wants to do it now.
[Fascinate General] Adaptive13:
Bump on this thread. I would love to get cisco VPN working! A good how to for the galaxy s models would be sweet.
[Fascinate General] adrynalyne:
Gonna require 100% working kernel source, which we do not have right now. Samsung really dropped the ball.
[Fascinate General] mjolnirmkii:
That is what I thought.

Hopefully we get the kernel source from Samsung soon, if not specifically for the Fascinate, then maybe the Epic 4G, since those are the two CDMA Galaxy S phones. Verizon has been known in the past to bully phone makers into doing what Verizon wants, but maybe Sprint will be less bullish.
[Fascinate General] Adaptive13:
Does this mean there will need to be a separate module built for the Captivate/Vibrant? I'm on a Captivate...
[Fascinate General] adrynalyne:
We have the kernel source for the Fascinate, but its a turd and is requiring modification just to get working correctly. A 100% default build will not boot.
[Fascinate General] nocmonkee:
Let's bump this up now that we have custom kernels

I would like to see this get added into the stupidfast kernel, jt's kernel or in the black-hole rom. That way get-a-robot vpnc works on the fascinate and we can all tunnel to our ASAs and PIXs.

hi, i installed the v6 brian greek task bar on my hd2 tmousa after a wile i remove it cuz it look like it was eating my battery ( Me being a little paranoid) after uninstalling, my default task bar was missing the edge, H, 3G icon. so i reinstall the task bar and now the sound icon is missing also installed a different taskbar (taskbar_WIN) and still missing the sound icon.

is there a way i can solve this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conantroutman:
if i remember rightly its related to the "volumeoverlay.dll"........

try searching for that and see how you get on.....

If not consult the creator of the taskbar........

Someones probably already had the same problem so there may be a fix in that thread somewhere.....

Hope that helps...... i had that once before and it drove me nuts......
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Ore tray this?

01. Start RegEditor

02. Remove two Keys in [HKLM/Software/HTC/VolumeOverlay]. [LoadIconFromResDLL] and [SoundIconLink]

03. Restart

Not sure it will help; but it helped some other users in the past. (depending on what caused the problem.)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namwollem:
I had this too!!

The new 1.66 ROM's seem to have a bug with volume icon. When installing a new battery icon, the volume icon disappears.

Solution:

Just go to the following entry in the Registry, and delete these reg-keys to get volume icon back with custom taskbar:

[HKLM/Software/HTC/VolumeOverlay]

LoadIconFromResDLL

SoundIconLink

If it doesn't bring back the volume icon straight away, then soft reset and you should be ok!!

Hope that helps you!:)

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] s0niqu3:
So, I recently decided to switch to using the new trillian beta, its actually grown into a rather decent application quite quickly. Of course, like most apps though, its designed for stock android, so all the notification icons are black & white, and look pretty lame on our vibrant (well, at least in my opinion they look lame.)

So I decided to make some new status icons for trillian, based on the default app icon, and I take NO credit at all for designing their original icon, I just like it a lot better than the awful black notification icons.

I am not packaging this into an apk until they release a non-beta version, since they seem to be updating the application as often as weekly right now. So the zip attached to the post only contains my new icons, you need to mod your app on your own.

Note, from my testing, I find that in order to make this installable to /data/app like a normal app, you need to extract the apk with apk manager, replace the images, then zip apk and re-sign. However, if you don't mind doing an adb push to /system/app then all you need to do is open the trillian.apk and drag-and-drop the new images into /res/drawable-hdpi.

And of course, zimp's awesome warning message...

WARNING: ALWAYS make a nandroid backup prior to installing any modification, including this one. You are making the decision to install this on your own, and I am not responsible for anything nuclear that may happen to your device.

Removed, sorry, too many people use other people's work without giving credit, and it leads to way too many headaches, he-said/she-said, ignorance, etc.

I'm on Virus's RC2B2 and have only added some AOSP components, but I'm just trying to figure out wtf's goin on here... Is there a video fix floating around that I dunno about to fix this issue..??

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deprecate:
So long story short, my trusted laptop finally died after 3 years of abuse. A friend at apple asked me, "if i can get you a great deal on a mbp, would you consider a switch?". sure why not. yada yada yada, I am now using osx.

okay...

so there are still lots of things I am sorting out. I have all the basics already taken care of; sdk, fastboot, adb, blah blah blah. Those were easy. After some searching, I can only seem to locate windows/linux tools for the following (I'll admit, I could probably search more but I KNOW there are people on here who have these setup on their apples so I am defaulting to you):

-resigning apks

-creating an update.zip

-deodexing

Once I get that sorted, I am going to move onto this one...is it possible to build from source in osx or do I still require a linux machine?

That's it for now. So any of you osx users with any of the above already solved, your help would be greatly appreciated :) Even just links would suffice.

I am sorta in a rush as I am taking over the responsibilities for the miui rom and while that would have been trivial leading up to this switch, it doesn't seem to be that way right now until I get this stuff resolved :)

Cheers!

Have you looked in to running parallels. There is program called VM FusionWare which will let you run Windows in an active OSX. I think it's a really good program, although I haven't used any of the competing software. IMO it's a necessary addition to a MBP. (WIN XP SP2 runs great)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] aln688:
What's a known, working procedure for flashing a different firmware on my X10a? Currently it's got an AT&T R2CA016 firmware on it and I want to debrand the phone.

I've went through numerous guides, using the PC Companion and Update Service to replace files, problem is, the software tells me my phone is up to date, additionally there's no "Re-install" button on this software, so using the SE software seems useless.

I also looked at XS++ which couldn't connect to my phone. If anyone has an AT&T phone and has debranded it in the last month, please let me know which procedure you used.

FYI, I've backed up my APN using APN Backup & Restore.

Thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] vengeance1990:
I was stuck on 020 for ages, the old method (replacing the files) no longer works and if it does it complete luck. the method i used to debrand can be found at this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=683793

download the version for your region, country or whatever. follow the instructions to install the 026 generic firmware and viola its debranded with the latest firmware
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] aln688:
Thanks, I'll give it a try later this afternoon. I just reading up on the Omnius method? It seems to rely on decrypted ROMs, which contain "phone.zip" and "android_xxx.zip". Any particular page to start reading the relevant information on? There's a 103 pages in that thread!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] vengeance1990:
Not to familiar with that method i dont think, i didnt read much into though (as i was getting ready for the 2.1 update)

the one i used was easy enough to use, basically click the exe which brings up a command prompt file, connect your phone in flash mode, hit any key and let it do its thing, worked perfectly first time after trying the switch the files method about 12 times
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] vengeance1990:
http://xdaforums.com/show...49#post8170549

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] aln688:
I don't see any firmware links on that page, it's actually on the next page, page 43. A generic X10a R2BA026 firmware is listed there. I might give that a go, either way, SEUS of PC Companion is out in regards to flashing my phone, they won't work.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Deadx10:
I was able to debrand the phone by flashing with a generic X10a R2BA026 using EXploid one click guide, however it is still locked to ATT. Anyone knows how to unlock the phone? Thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] aln688:
What guide did you use to debrand your phone? Can you give me a specific link?

I'm not bothered if it's locked to AT&T, I just want the AT&T garbage removed from it, I thought rooting would do that, but rooting just gives me super-user access to muck up the phone by deleting crucial system files!

UPDATE: I used the Grospolina method, here. So far so good, at least my phone boots! This method worked fine.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Diesel984:
If you're trying to use it on a different GSM network, You can Always go to one of the unlocking companies on the net...They use your IMEI number to unlock the phone.

OTHERWISE, If you're with AT&T, You CAN call customer care, Tell them you're traveling over-seas with your cell phone and you need it to be unlocked to use one of the UK's GSM Sim cards...

That's how I would do it personally ;)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Diesel984:
You SHOULD be good to go! Once you Root it with the generic firmware...If not, I'm CONFIDENT you can find someone to help ya on here with reflashing it to AT&T's Stock Firmware. I went through the entire root, rebranded mine (since I was talking about taking it back to AT&T for the Captivate) And have re-rooted it again without a hitch ;)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] aln688:
I followed this guide, as posted by Grospolina, and it worked perfectly, flashing it to a R2BA026 ROM. The root option also worked, and I installed the Market fix. In general, this IS how I want my phone, no AT&T garbage-ware installed. I'm content with this.

I tried other flashing guides, involving SEUS and PC Companion, all of them were a waste of time, due to a) The software kept telling me my phone was "up to date", and b) There was no "re-install" button to re-install the ROM on the phone. I WAS going to try Omnius which I suspect is a "pay-for" option, but this Grospolina guide worked 1st time. Many thanks to you Grospolina!

Now I can be busy re-installing some apps I wanted, and possibly restoring my APN file, I'm unsure if I need to at this point.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Deadx10:
I called AT&T and they said that under some policies between AT&T and Manufacturer, they can't release the code. They asked to have the original owner of the phone to call in since I don't have the account with AT&T. I got this phone off Ebay, so I can't have the original owner to call in. I wonder if there is any other way to unlock it, because it is dead to me now since I can't use it under any other network....:mad:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbong777:
It is my understanding there is no official US release for Kies for the Captivate.

I had to uninstal all Samsung drivers and installed Mini Kies which loaded it's own drivers.....so I could update the FW to JH7. However I think I had to use USB bugging mode and now the Kies selection in USB shows as "Kies (FW Upgrade)" (Win 7 (64bit)

Seems to me there are many versions of Drivers and Kies floating around..

Is there a current application of Kies that will work for the US and does it come with drivers as well or do we still have to load drivers separately. IN Kies mode the full Kies program would just make the phone beep and not see it.

Which is why I loaded mini Kies. I want to use Kies but want a working application with proper drivers and able to connect the phone every time. Is there such a thing yet? For WIN 7 64?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cappysw10:
I installed Mini-Kies on my Win 7 64 bit machine as well. What I did was start Mini-Kies on the pc and then plug in my Cappy. When the phone asked I selected Kies and my pc installed new drivers. Once these installed correctly Mini-Kies saw my phone and reported no firmware update (I got the ota fine).

Dunno if this will help you. Good luck.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbong777:
