[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolageek:
I wish there was a way to filter crap app developers out of the market. I never want to see an app by a few developers that seem to just make stupid apps over and over (that ringclip guy, for instance) I remember there was an alternate market app a while back that let you do this, but I can't find it anymore.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
Didnt mean to hurt your feelings. If you've ever had an apple product that accessed the app store you would know what I'm talking about.

1. When you uninstall an app it shouldn't remain in your downloads folder. This is very annoying and you find yourself clicking on the app you just deleted by mistake.

2. Android has a lot good apps but most of them are buried under junk apps.

3. The banners that I'm referring to is when you view all apps. It'll show me a banner of a cool looking game and if clicked on it should take me straight to the game but it doesn't.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wfrandy:
This must be a problem with CM. I am running Fresh 3.3.0.1 and I just happened to have unistalled a bunch of apps today (all either uninstalled through the market or through settings/applications). After I uninstalled them I rebooted and they are now gone from my Market downloads page.

PPC keep working.. but it's hard to see the Screen..

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] cyborgsai:
I think I'm having the same problem as you.

Everything ok but the screen is dark but still working?

I've tried the same as you and also took the phone apart and reseated all connectors and still have the problem.

It seems similar to the Diamond issue but the solution hasnt helped.

If you fix it please let me know
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] djteotancolis:
if your back light wont come on, its most probably that your ribbon has broken somewhere
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ziTney:
Same here..

I've got this problem too.

Sometimes the backlight is ok, for like half a second.

I'm gonna disassemble my Touch Pro tonight, hopefully I'll find something what will fix this problem.

I got this Touch Pro for like one month now, and I dropped it once.

I have no idea how I got this problem(I guess because I dropped it..)

:(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] AthenaLod:
i had this happen to me before. i would go to power options and move the slider of the brightness and it will correct itself, after a while it is not happening anymore.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Goshgar:
I had Toshiba G900, and currently has Qtek S200 and this horrible TouchPro. Only one month old TouchPro changed completely my opinion about HTC. Backlight does not work properly and it goes away completely. I change from official WM6.1 to Energy WM6.5, but problem still not resolved.
[XPERIA X10 General] pally777:
Take a look at this matrix of Android powered devices offered around the world that Google lists for comparison reasons. Sony Ericsson isn't even on the list of manufacturers! Goes to show you what others think of our Xperia X10...

http://www.google.com/phone/#manufacturer=all&category=withgoogle&carrier=all&country=all&reset_filters=1
[XPERIA X10 General] Puck24:
I know. Saw it earlier today.

Well, since SE sux, it's not actually surprising
[XPERIA X10 General] saeam:
OK then its true

some one told me that SE had a "deal problem" with google because, as he told me that SE should pay to google so that SE can use the android OS on their phones. And that problem was the cause of "Eclair" delay and now every thing settled so they officially announced the maintenance shop about the release date of the "Eclair". Actually the sales as i mentioned before in SE shops in different countries received "Eclair" training, so that means it was out and running on the phones. Connecting every thing together i can believe that guy in what he told me.
[XPERIA X10 General] Nimche:
Since you connected the dots, would that mean that google will add X10 to the list? I feel like X10 was running WM and then hacked to have Android thats why GOOGle doesn't recognize it.
[XPERIA X10 General] naplesbill:
As I posted in another thread:

They are only listing Google Experience phones on that site. Here is a quote from the Engadget blog:

It's probably because they overtake the gallery and music apps on their devices. The Samsung Fascinate isn't listed there either.
[XPERIA X10 General] saeam:
LOOOOOOOL its not about adding X10, its about adding SE as android manufacturer. And maybe SE is not listed due to what that man said ;)

Also i can see many brands not listed, even from HTC, aslo different manufactureres also not listed, so i dont know if it is money issues and deals "something like OEM", or just they dont update this list "I dont know".
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
Does it really matter... until we know the criteria for choosing those phones... we can't really comment on it. And even once we do, does it make the X10 any less awesome?
[XPERIA X10 General] saeam:
Sure nooooo i love this phone and SE and i will not change it
[XPERIA X10 General] sl1nk3:
Hmm, actually I think they've just begun to fill this website and a lot of phones are still missing (HTC Desire for example), earlier this morning there were no LG phones and no Motorola phones either.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Why would SE have to pay for a free operating system?

.... Do you guys even know what Android is?
[XPERIA X10 General] Contrarian:
i'm hoping se are getting rid of the google crap from the phone. it'll probably make our phones faster. google are starting to piss me off more than microsoft.

i also think we'll see a bing search widget in the next update.

As for the update being ready, you are wrong unfortunately. The following website lists all sony firmware that is certified and ready for distribution, but 2.2 doesn't appear on the list

[XPERIA X10 General] Nimche:
Everyone, please move to room B202 for lecture about android. Professor ....
[XPERIA X10 General] lornova:
Sorry but this is not a list of Android powered phones. That's the list of "Google Phones".
[XPERIA X10 General] Nimche:
Google is not a phone manufacturer. Yet!
[XPERIA X10 General] Darthhister:
This guy is right. Android is like Linux, its free to use the software on a phone.

Anyone remember when Apple sued HTC because of multitouch, but multitouch is an Android kernel. Apple couldn't sue google because android is nonprofit.
[XPERIA X10 General] saeam:
Actually android is built on top of linux kernel, linux kernel is free distribution but android is ownership of google and they can sell it same as many of other "not free linux distribution" and profissional system admins will understand what am telling. So please guys watch ur talk. maybe if some one read google's android license "i didnt" and knows exactly if companies should pay to google or no can tell us the right information
[XPERIA X10 General] lildic:
SE android phones Sucks
[XPERIA X10 General] sim-value:
They still need to pay for the Google services.

Also that list isnt exhaustive till know, so i wouldnt interpret too much into that
[XPERIA X10 General] njfpolyr6:
Guys...do you know what do those phones have in common??? They all have Google Logos on the back to the battery covers!! and most of them are US market phones except the Milestone.
[XPERIA X10 General] kmaximax:
You need to click through some options they are listed :)

Your search for With Google phones made by sony-ericsson in all countries and available on any operator did not match any result.

Suggestions:

* Change the filter options.

* Try browsing all phones in the Google Phone Gallery.

the link to ALL PHONES shows the X10 range down at the bottom
[XPERIA X10 General] andy8271:
watch your own talk

android is open source. the source code is available free for anyone who wants to use it

the manufacturers 'pay' by contributing code they change/improve/add to the project themselves.

[XPERIA X10 General] mobz:
It does now.. Google acknowledged X10 (",)

About the pay-to-use.. Google only "copyright" some of the stuff inside the Android system (I dunno which). They don't charge for it, but it is not to be tampered with or used without their permission.

So.... it's like.. change the cover and the storyline, but some of the character is still the same..
[XPERIA X10 General] android-fan-X10:
google crap??!!! ok...ur opinion...i'll respect it...but i found something from the link u gave...

A	R2BA026	Jul 12, 2010

i thought R2BA026 was he latest firmware...what are the ones in bold?? anybody has any idea?? :confused:
[XPERIA X10 General] Chewitt:
CA is for AT&T

BA are our current versions and so all we are missing are BA027 and 028

That leaves R2EA001 what would be the Fist version of 2.1 that was sent for certification, R1EA029 will be the latest version that was running on the X10's pictured on 2.1 at the developer event.

Its a good site to watch as when you see the next set appear it shows they are making progress.
[XPERIA X10 General] POLO_i780:
My word, why does the PW have to over react??? Anyone with even half a brain would have checked the other manufacturers and noticed missing devices, Dell and Acer dont even seem to be there, *face-to-palm* please do some proper investigating before having a lil fanny wobble and posting topics like this.
[XPERIA X10 General] Nimche:
Google did not have X10 the very first day they started the website section(it was in engadget.com) and they added X10 later and they will add the rest of the phones as well.

They need to add the whole specs for each phone which probably needs to come from the phone's manufacturer.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Incorrect. If you look at the Android 1.6 Updates thread, you would know that this firmware is Japan's current firmware that was released August 29th.
[XPERIA X10 General] alankstiyo:
think isjust cause SE made several customizations to the x10 or maybe for google SE is ebil

(ebil> most evil than evil)
[XPERIA X10 General] JonRushton:
That list shows nothing. Theres plenty of phones not listed. The HTC Desire Range for one.

All it shows is that its not updated properly.
[XPERIA X10 General] gunstar3035:
LOL @ "x10 any less awesome"

Single touch, low call volume, and a weak battery all count towards awesome now? :D

The screen is nice, but the rest of the phone is a complete mess. Everything that could have been good Sony ****ed up.

Nice camera...no flash

Nice screen...no multi touch

Nice voice quality...super quiet

Big battery...OS drains it fast

Such a let down.
[XPERIA X10 General] nkolsen:
Troll please leave our forums, and go to what ever place you came from. Thank you...
[XPERIA X10 General] matjan:
Google's updated the list now! If you compare the x10 with some other droids, you'll see that the x10 isn't very bad at all :D
[XPERIA X10 General] saeam:
The word watch ur talk was about ppls swearing others with bad words. What concerns license i said

I dont know because there is many types of lcenses such as GPL , LGPL etc. So depend on the license type of the open source

and legalities concerns it, u can know if it is ok to use it for commercial use or no, and if am wrong please justify me. And for instance there is an open source pieces of code you are allowed to use them in ur commercial software and others ur not allowed unless you take permission from its owner.
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
lol @ people who believe companies don't have to pay google for using Android. Customizations are not allowed base on the Terms and Conditions. Doing so will need Google's consent = giving them time + money. It is correct that Google is one of the source of the delay in the OS update operation. For each software update, they require a total of 3 checkings.

CA approval

Google approval

Type approval

I don't know what CA is, but it was never stuck there. Mostly stuck on Google and Type approval. Sometimes some functions are not allowed by Google (Google approval), sometimes market operator would not allow some functions (Type approval)
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Wait, what? Are you making up things from your butt?

From Google's Android FAQs:

Is compatibility mandatory?

No. The Android Compatibility Program is optional. Since the Android source code is open, anyone can use it to build any kind of device. However, if a manufacturer wishes to use the Android name with their product, or wants access to Android Market, they must first demonstrate that the device is compatible.

How much does compatibility certification cost?

There is no cost to obtain Android compatibility for a device. The Compatibility Test Suite is open-source and available to anyone to use to test a device.

How long will each Android version be supported for new devices?

Since Android's code is open-source, we can't prevent someone from using an old version to launch a device. Instead, Google chooses not to license the Android Market client software for use on versions that are considered obsolete. This allows anyone to continue to ship old versions of Android, but those devices won't use the Android name and will exist outside the Android apps ecosystem, just as if they were non-compatible.

Can a device have a different user interface and still be compatible?

The Android Compatibility Program focuses on whether a device can run third-party applications. The user interface components shipped with a device (such as home screen, dialer, color scheme, and so on) does not generally have much effect on third-party apps.

As such, device builders are free to customize the user interface as much as they like

. The Compatibility Definition Document does restrict the degree to which OEMs may alter the system user interface for areas that do impact third-party apps.

As an aside, read the line in bold below:

Might this be the reason why LG all of a sudden upgrades their old Android 1.5 handsets? Is Google turning off Android Market access for Android 1.5 releases? I never noticed that Android Market expiry clause before...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangxi:
I am a fairly new Vibrant owner. Had the G1 before and I am so happy I got rid of that. Anyway, I decided to root the phone and install some things since I did the same on my G1. I have:

Frankin-Twiz Update 3 Rom with his LagFix

JAC's XMOD OC/UV Kernal

All is well and the phone is super fast but I want to revert back to stock. I kind of fell in love with the modifications that TouchWiz brought and Frankin-Twiz gets rid of most of them in favor of stock.

So my questions: I found the thread that has the stock firmware and I see that I can install it using Nandroid. Easy but do I have to remove Eugene's LagFix first? Is there anything else I should do before flashing it? I just don't want to mess up anything.

My Vibrant is one that cannot use the VooDoo Beta4 so I have to wait til Beta5. Is there anything that I can use in the meantime? I was using the OCLF before but I read that EXT2 isn't very safe to use and could mess up your phone.

Thanks for any help.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mrxela:
Does anyone know if there is an app that can be installed on my kids phone that will either monitor app installs and alert me via email or keep a log of installed apps from the android market?

I can block market access entirely but that's not a viable solution imho.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] courtmagician:
Actually, you can use Tasker for that - it does have a condition of when an app is installed, so you should be able to set it up so that it texts you each time an app is installed. Not sure how in depth the text can be (ie, name of app, etc), but it's a step in the right direction. Only thing is Tasker isn't free (but it does have a free 7 day trial if you go to their site).
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mrxela:
That's an interesting idea, i'll definitely give it a try. Thank you.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osaeed:
I flashed Super E rom couple of months ago and everything was running beautifully and very very stable with like 20 apps installed on my sd card, until two days ago I came back from shopping and the phone was off. So, I thought it was the battery that needs to be charged, but after i turned it on, this wasn't a battery issue at all.

When I turned it on, it would boot up normally and then boot the super E rom. After it just stays at the boot screen (super e rom boot screen)

If i turn it off and remove the sd card, it would then boot into the android os and then display the exclamation point "removed SD Card. Sd card removed. Insert a new one". Inserting the sd card back into the slot, would just appear the checking for errors and stay that way for eternity.

Also, if i leave the sd card and turn off then turn the phone back on, it will sometimes get stuck at the G1 logo screen. Powering it off and removing the card will get me to the OS.

So then, i took out the card, formatted with Fat32 and EXT4, wiped/resetted the phone, wiped dalvik, cache and flashed again the Super e rom and installed a few apps and it was fine. Then again the same thing happened yesterday and apps are damaged, phone doesnt boot with the SD card inserted.

Right now im not using the sd card and it looks like it is working fine..

I am confused. I mean I have been using the phone for 1 year without issues.

Is there a nand block scanner? or do you guys know what utility I scan the memory card with?

btw i can format the microsd card with gparted fine. Windows detects the card with no issues it looks like

any possible ideas?

Thank you.

Does anyone know of a good backup program to save my apps and data utilizing CM 6 if I have moved some of my apps to the SD card? It's my understanding that Titanium can't back the SD card saved apps yet.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] tpbklake:
I saw a reference today to an app called "appsaver" that backups all your installed apps to the SD card as *.apk files. Once you flash a new ROM and reload appsaver, it has a restore option that will reload the apps from the SD card.

I download it this evening and have done a backup and it created all of the *.apk files on the SD card. I haven't tried restoring them yet.

[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] pcruz:
A nandroid back up from clockwork recovery can create an image of your phones current state. Also you could try using the backup option in the CM6 settings which will "back up" your apps and restore them if you factory reset, I dont think that does data.
