When I connect my stock desire 2.2, i dont get "mount" in the notification area, (even when it was 2.1). how did you manage to get that option?

i downloaded "auto mount" from the market, its just a tick box, you tick it before you connect your phone and your SD Card will be mounted, if you unticked it before you connect your SD Card will not be mounted .. works for me
[Droid X General] AndroidPhilip:
My Droid x that's running the leaked 2.2 update, will not connect to my computer via the android sdk it says that the driver could not be found. Even after directing it to the spacific drivers. Please help I Want to root my phone so bad!!!
[Fascinate General] shauder:
I can not figure out for the life of me why the Media Sync function gets an error. It was working perfectly fine for a while and then when I try and connect my phone again it errors. So I reflash to stock everything and redo the root and clockwork and set it up again. Has happened twice anyone know why?
[Fascinate General] namebrandon:
Have you done a privacy wipe? If not, this is probably happening because /dbdata was never wiped, your settings from whatever you did the first few times are still in there. It'll send you back to stock, but it should fix the problem.

Settings - > Privacy - > Restore factory system/settings,etc..
[Fascinate General] shauder:
I just defrosted TwLauncher, V Cast Music, V Cast Tones, V Cast Video and one of them made it work again! Not sure what one though going to investigate further. The thing about the data wipe is I did do that before the restore of System, Kernel and Recovery.
[Fascinate General] shauder:
UPDATE: Seems like it is not the launcher but one of the V CAST apps that must be linked to the media sync service. Would a deodoxe get rid of this from happening?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkitchBeatz:
So i installed Cognition 2.1.x with MobileAp. Should I worry about AT&T recognizing that i'm using this somehow? I don't expect that they could tell that my Captivate is using it other than an increase in data usage but maybe i'm wrong?

I have an unlimited (grandfathered) data plan but no special tethering package
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bjd223:
If they really had to they could tell you are using a desktop browser to surf, but I doubt they would go to the trouble. Also as long as you don't use a ton of data and fly under the radar no one will bother you.

If you have the unlimited plan as long as you stay under 5GB I don't think they will look twice.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zaures:
Exactly, as long as you dont use some crazy amount of data your fine, Im sure a little red flag would pop up if you start using like 10 GB a month :)

[Captivate Themes and Apps] maximus-dev:
I'm not really interested in theming my captivate very much (yet...) but I'd absolutely love to change the dumb ass lock screen... I hate the thing.

How might one go about changing this and is there a recommended replacement?

Currently running Cognition 2.1.4, lagfix disabled.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mrpiggae:
The app that most use is WidgetLocker, as it seems to be the most stable of the lock screen replacement apps. I purchased it, but don't use it because it's not quick enough for my taste.

With the stock lock screen, it's the first thing that pops up when you turn the phone on. With WidgetLocker, I would often get a brief delay where I would see the home screen before WidgetLocker kicked in. I hate that delay, so I've gone back to the stock pattern input lock screen.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Bowsa2511:
Use the app called "no lock" to fix that problem ;)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mrpiggae:
Tried that, didn't do the trick. Instead of getting a brief glimpse of the stock lock screen, I instead get a brief glimpse of the home screen.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] E_man5112:
Did you use either the home replacement or the root override? With those, I rarely get the stock screen, maybe 1 in 20 times.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] derek4484:
I sort of like the lock screen. IMO, its much better than the Samsung Fascinate's lock screen. It's standard lock screen is the jigsaw puzzle.

I like how the Captivate's lock screen can be slid any direction to unlock, seems to make it really easy for me to just grab the phone and then flick the screen in any direction with my thumb.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] GiXXerSTeveO:
anybody had any luck in getting that puzzle lock screen from the vibrant or fascinate? i know we have one when a call has been missed but i want that to be the main lockscreen.

[Epic 4G General] NyghtGT:
I currently have an EVO 4G and am completely loving it...

My wife recently upgraded from a Blackberry Curve to the Samsung Epic 4G and is in love with her phone as well. The only issue we have been having is that when I send her text messages in the threaded display it shows another contacts number before mine. (pictured below from wife's Epic 4G) Her Epic is still stock will all updated firmware, prl, etc.

We've tried deleting all the contact informations for both numbers (5540) and (2116) on her Epic 4G with success in removing the contacts however the problem with messaging still persists. She is unable to reply to messages unless she manually enters my phone number (2116) which is kind of a hassle. I have tested my Evo 4G with other Android phones and the issue seems to be centered around her phone.

I've googled several items using the criteria above with no avail.

Any help would be possible, i'm not really eager to take the phones to Sprint because i'm rooted, etc.
[Epic 4G General] damefame:
Check all the accounts that are pulling contacts to her phone.. for example the google facebook twitter and the phone contacts... there may be a contact that has that phone number as the number and YOUR phone number as the mobile number. if not the fastest why to fix issue is to hard reset the phone and see if the phone has the same issue.

Download it from the market. Then press the "Home" key. It will ask you what launcher you want to use. Make it default.

Like has been said, download from the market and install. Once you install, and tell your phone to use it, you can remove ADW with Titanium Backup if you want...But make sure you are USING LauncherPro first. Probably mess something up if you dont...Nandroid first to be safe. I like LauncherPro much better myself
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
If your clear default button is grayed out..go to the market and download Default Home and install it.Follow the directions and use it to allow you to switch to LP. No need to really un-install it until you know for sure you don't want to use it. I used it for a good while and then started using ADW for my default launcher. I really like how it works now and plan on using it mostly,but have the option to go back whenever I want..

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buzmay:
Hi,

I rooted my htc desire but some problems with the wifi were happening, anyhow at the end I installed a custom ROM, which made my desire completly going into black screen.

Then without knowing what I was doing I went into the recovery mode and change some stuff without really knowing.

And now when I turn off and on the phone the only thing that I get is the white screen with the Bootloader version and the options for entering into recovery mode and so on, which I guess my phone has no OS or image.

I have tried to donwload 2.2 firmware and try to install it via the sd card but is not working.

Does anybody here have any idea what can I do.

Thanks in advance
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zHk3R:
Turn on your phone by pressing the Back button and Power button for 5 seconds.

The bootloader menu appears - Press Recovery and wait until it boots into recovery.

From here on out do whatever - Mount USB storage and put a new ROM on the root of your SDcard. Wipe everything and flash the ROM.

Should work fine.

[Epic 4G Android Development] styckx:
Putting this in the development thread as I read a lot on these forums about people trying to get one click roots/flashers to work and kept getting a lot of device not found errors, or partially working attempts that ended up failing even though they had the right drivers installed etc.

I never had a problem with this until yesterday and figured out what is going on.

Back story: I normally flashed at home on my main PC and never was an issue but yesterday I got my replacement Epic while at work and had to use my laptop to root, flash clockwork etc. About an hour of errors, unplugging and plugging and devices not found I finally got two to take. It still bugged me what was causing this.

Solution: Check your antivirus suite. I personally use Avast. What was happening was Avast On-Access protection was blocking data transfer between my Epic and PC. The device would install fine, appear to be seen by windows but countless attempts to flash, or using the android SDK would result in a blocked transfer within 20 seconds of plugging in the USB making it appear to be dead and "offline" (in the android SDK). It was "there" but data was being blocked.

If you're an avast user and always have these issues try this.

Plug in your Epic.. Right click the blue Avast circle in the Task Tray and click program settings. Next click "exclusions" and then click "browse". Check the empty box for the drive that your Epic appeared as. Mine was "E:". Then click OK out of avast to save it.

Now try flashing, or using the Android SDK. It should work flawlessly now without any out of no where device no found, offline errors.

Other AV users: Disable the entire thing during one click flashers

[Droid 2 General] zwolf4444:
I'm quite sure. Its not as much of a problem for music because tends to be louder at the same volume setting because of how music is made these days. Also, with music, its not a bid deal if you can't hear the words well because of background noise. I can watch video just fine in a quiet room, but when there's ambient noise i'd like to be able to push the volume higher than stock.

So anyway, first off my power button works just fine, please keep that in mind, but my phone wont lock right. When i push the power button the screen turns off and it will lock, but only for the first 2 or 3 times, then it stops working until i switch to one of the other locking methods (pin, pattern, password) but the same thing happens with those, i get just a couple locks and then it stops locking. The screen still turns off but it wont lock, not until i change the lock method.

Personally I would not use the Ruu method to unroot. If u were rooted using unrevoked forever or you where rooted without using unrevoked then you can unroot in 2 easy steps, this post is all u need http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=780141

If you were rooted without using unrevoked then all you need to do is copy the PC36IMG to your sd card, boot into recovery and flash the PC36IMG and you're unrooted...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splink7007:
I tried that first. It loaded the pc36img and ran just the first thing. I believe it was the bootloader. I did turn s to on and updated hboot to 96 then just rebooted to the bootloader. It got me stuck in a bootloader. I had to user recovery to flash back a rom. I was trying the ruu and I can get it to run but fails at the bootloader. error 140
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jahnile:
OK base on your reply it sounds that you did root using the unrevoked method. In that case you cannot run just the PC36IMG. In fact you do not need the file on the SD card for the first step. This will just make your task more difficult.

Start Over...

Remove the PC36IMG then copy just the "forever-son.zip" to your SD. Boot into recovery and flash the forever-son.zip. Then follow steps 7-15 from here on....

Remember when you boot into the boot loader your ph should say S-ON, if not u got to repeat the steps 5-7 until it does...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splink7007:
No I originally rooted using simple root. I'm so lost now. Like I said I rooted with simple root. When I put the PC36IMG on the root of sd and rebooted the phone. It started reading the PC36IMG file. Once it got to the part when it checks everything and says ok to the right, it just ran thru the first option then automatically rebooted my phone to the boot loader. I noticed that my phone then read s-on and had the .96 hboot. I tried to reboot again to rerun the PC36IMG it then said something about being an older version do you want to reboot. I was unable to boot into my rom at that point. I was able to go in to recovery and run a custom rom to boot to. So I figured I'd try to run the newest RUU. When running the RUU, it gets to a point and gives me an error at the boot loader part: error 140
