[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajendra82:
When you install android sdk, you unzip it into a location of your choice. There is one more step after this according to the Google website that you are supposed to follow this with. Let's say you unzipped it into c:\android-sdk-windows\, then you should right click on My Computer, and then go to advanced settings to see a list of system variables. You should see the PATH variable with a bunch of directories separated by semicolons. Add c:\android-sdk-windows\tools\ to that list. Now when you're in any directory and type a command, Windows will look through all the directories in PATH before telling you that you typed in an invalid command. When you open up a cmd window and type in adb, the program will run from there because the location where it is stored is now part of PATH.

Thanks! Seems a bit more work up front, but shorter and easier in the long run.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veener79:
Ok I got 2.2 re-installed after a clean reinstall.

I did all the posts to setup my laptop and that looks to have worked. When I type in cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools and type ADP I get the long list of codes. I am getting there. :)

I saw this post

"I say pull the tools folder out and place on ROOT of your PC. then extract http://xdaforums.com/atta...8&d=1285997559 into the same folder"

Am I do put the Captivate2.2RootPack folder in the "Tools" folder? Am I to put the contents of the folder into the "Tools" folder? From looking at the lines of code I am thinking I need to put the contents into the folder.

Then from this post all I have to do is copy and past each line of code into DOS and I am set correct?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gr8Danes:
You are going to want to put the contents in the tools folder if you are doing it that way (the way I did).

The commands you want to follow are in the tread: h t t p://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=797397

Make sure you run command prompt as "Admin". Right click on command prompt and run it as that.

I called a few of the T-Mobile's in Orlando and they said that they weren't allowed to sell them until the 6th. So is this selling early thing a regional thing only?
[G2 and Desire Z General] johnaltman1978:
only place to get before the 6th is Radio Shack. They are available today.
[G2 and Desire Z General] smjfosho:
Yes, from what I've heard, its California, Oregon and Washington

I'm getting mine today from a t-mobile store
[G2 and Desire Z General] lpaddikt:
I GOT MINE yesterday but I live in California. Greatest surprise.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Arcadia310:
Don't spread false information. I picked mine up from T-Mobile yesterday, I live in California.
[G2 and Desire Z General] NicksVideo:
I tried calling several locations around the Orlando/Winter Park area too, and none of them were selling it early. Finally found a store in Waterford Lakes that sold it to me about an hour ago. Very happy with the phone so far.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Paten:
I went to the T-Mobile store in the Brandon Mall. They told me they could not sell for upgrades until the 6th but for new accounts or if you have to add a new data plan or service to get it, they could sell it to you today.
[G2 and Desire Z General] joackie27:
I just called 2 T-Mobile stores here in Los Angeles and they confirmed that they are selling already.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Snuggl3s:
Yea i was going to say if u were in the LA area my store is selling them already but florida is a bit 2 far lol sorry mate =(
[G2 and Desire Z General] joackie27:
I'm actually here at the store picking one. :D
[G2 and Desire Z General] dale_cooper:
Called 3 stores in the columbus, ohio area - none of them are selling it early. I finally was like, "no I don't wnat to be put on your waiting list, whats the motivation for htat when I can hop over to radio shack and buy it right now". Makes no sense to me WHATSOEVER why they would refuse to sell it. Unfortunately radioshack's no contract price is 550, grrr gotta wait till the 6th I guess ($499 at tmo stores).

Furthermore, Tmobile not OFFICIALLY allowing their stores to sell early is a damn joke - somehow radio shack is given the official go ahead to sell before a corporate store? What a joke!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Snuggl3s:
Well radio shack isn't tmo corp. They are autherized dealers. If tmo has a date they wanna sell at that's the date they feel will give enough time to make store changes and offical shipments in to all stores. They have to change out 10k plus stores so that u get the same experience at every location and stock them all. If radio shack wants to sell early that's up to them but if the get some type of backlash from tmo for selling early is a differnt story. In the end its all marketing really. If u dnt wanna wait then pay the extra 50 bucks. Call it your convience fee heh

T-mobile stores can sell today if they have stock available. My stores didn't so I bought from radio shack. Love it so far.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Yellowfrizbee:
They had a real working one out on display at the T-mobile here in Florida. Didnt ask about buying it though. If it was on display, you think that means theyre selling it or? :confused:
[G2 and Desire Z General] TJRunsWild:
I just went to Radio Shack and got mine. The cashier had to call Tmobile customer service and the tmo rep said that this was the first retail purchase recorded. I doubt it though.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtc442:
What time did u get it? I waited outside the door til they opened at 11, and was gone by 11:30, g2 in hand. My tmo store was pissed when I brought back the vibrant on day 13, lol.
[G2 and Desire Z General] lpaddikt:
haha, funny about you returning your vibrant. I returned mine also but the guys were really cool at the tmo store because they knew the G2 was a better phone than the vibrant. I happen to agree.
[G2 and Desire Z General] timsuh:
Just picked up a G2 at the T-Mobile store in Mountain View, CA (San Antonio Shopping Center - 510 Showers Drive) at about 3:30pm PT. They didn't say how many they had in stock, but did say mine was only the second G2 sold today.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtc442:
Well, I'm thinking the Guy was ticked because he doesn't get he commission now, plus I went to the shack instead of the store. Oh well. I actually had to go to a different store to get my refund on the vibrant. He told me he couldn't do it because he didn't have the money in his drawer. Total prick about it too.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TJRunsWild:
I was there at 11 too. Got out about the same time as you, lol.
[G2 and Desire Z General] arronc:
I exchanged my Vibrant for a G2 today in South Carolina at 1:30pm. No problems whatsoever. My Tmo peeps just shook their head because of how often I am in there getting a new phone.
[G2 and Desire Z General] joackie27:
Lots of people were buying the G2 when I went to T-Mobile 7728 here at Los Feliz, Los Angeles, CA 90039.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Snuggl3s:
Naw we don't make commission off phones its the plan and upgrades. The guy who said he didn't have change was prly just being a lazy **** and I'm sorry for that. Some people just shouldn't work retail. Smh

[G2 and Desire Z General] zacholley:
Got one here in oklahoma today :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtc442:
Funny thing to add to that is, while I was in the store, he called another store that was close to see if they had the cash. He got off the phone and told me they didn't have it either. I left the store and called the store he called, and she said bring it, got plenty in the drawer. That's what ticks me off!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] dynamikd:
Really? Tmobile reps don't make commission off if the devices? That's crazy bro!
[G2 and Desire Z General] dale_cooper:
Not from my experience. Every store I called acted like they heard of no such announcement... one guy even said if other stores sell early, well thats a risk they're taking. I wasn't going to argue with him saying it sounds more of like a corporate top down order/message that if you have them, sell them.

As for radio shack taking a "risk". THey're not taking a risk, for a large chain to announce they're selling a flagship phone early, I 100% guarantee radio shack cleared it with tmobile. It would be like when the iphone 4 was released, if best buy decided to sell it before at&t/apple stores - at&t and apple would've murdered best buy (they also in no way would've let a non att/apple store sell it first). So for tmobile stores to not sell it at the same time, is ridiculous.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtc442:
Disagree. I was in the t-mobile store, talking to that manager. He said he received an email from up above to start selling on the 3rd if they have stock. Of course they won't have any til tomorrow. Call the t-mobile store at north east mall in n. Richland hills TX, ask for the store manager, Dave, or even robert. Not trying to argue, but since you quoted me, I'm clarifying my statement.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Snuggl3s:
Yea that guy prly didn't call anyone or just his friend. Asshat and again I'm sorry. Yea we don't make a penny from phones but, plan, accessories, upgrades hell insurance we do. And as I've stated Tmobile wants the person in la to have the same experience buying his G2 as the guy in NY does. So everything needs to be perfect and on time at all 10k+ stores. I mean ive had 30+ G2s sitting in my stock room since sep 27 so its not cause we don't have them, its all marketing man.

[G2 and Desire Z General] veritas17:
I'm super used to lazy employees and liars with radioshack. I had the same experience with a guy here in columbus, thus why I only get my phones via customer care.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dale_cooper:
Wait, so you work for tmobile - are you saying that your store isnt selling them either? As you said, I agree that tmobile would want the same experience... eeeexcept thats not happening whatsoever.

Can you tell me if you actually received a corporate endorsed email that said you could sell them if you have stock?

edit: It sounds like you never received that email that JTC says some employee at his local store got.... so that supports me saying that it isn't true that theres some corporate message that if you have them in stock, sell them.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtc442:
Are you trying to argue man. Wasn't some store employee, it was the store manager I can give you the number to the store if you'd like to call? I'm not pulling this out of my a$$
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtc442:
Either way, this is stupid to argue about. Some bought from radio shack today and some bought from tmo. I will give u that number though if you'd like!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Snuggl3s:
I never said we weren't just telling you y tmo wouldn't sell them early like radio shack, the experience. But I've already sold 2. As for the email yes I have one from my the guy who oversees some odd 200 stores saying go for it. We aren't offering it but if a customer comes in with a full upgrade or is a new line of service and asks for it, I'm selling him one. Of course this is all up to the stores manager if he wants to and my manager says sell them puppys haha

GOtcha, thanks for clearing that up...

JTC - wasn't call you a liar whatsoever dude.

What I'm trying to get at is that it definitely sounds region based (as my local area had no stores even willing to want to sell them early). Just frustrating... bleh

Im in Palm Beach County (South Florida) and our whole market was given the go ahead to start selling them today once the prices where loaded into the system.
[G2 and Desire Z General] smjfosho:
I got my g2 at noon, right when the store opened and I was the first to get it, out of the 35 they had in stock. I am very happy with this device.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rwbarnes67:
OK, I work for Radio Shack and we have a 3 day early window that was agreed to with T-Mobile to sell the G2 on the 3rd. It was supposed to be an exclusive window according to the emails that we got, but I guess that the T-Mo stores decided they could sell them too!

I can't wait to get mine!!!

[Hero CDMA General] omrebel:
I am running CyanogenMod 6 (just installed it..it rocks!) on a Cellular South HTC Hero. One thing I'm trying to figure out is how to get Flash Player installed and working. Whenever I try to install Flash Player 10.1, it starts installing and then says "Not Installed". I downloaded the Flash Showcase to see if I'm really missing Flash Player, and it confirms that I don't have it. How can I get Flash Player installed?

But hey, why waste time using your head when you can act like you did in order to exhibit such immaturity and try to impress some 12 or 13 year old?

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinglehoofis:
I'll be getting a Rogers X10 sometime this week and I'm just educating myself on the root method etc before I actually get the phone. Anyway, I've pretty much got that figured out and the one click exploid method looks simple compared to the root method I had to use for my 911 patched HTC Dream, and since my computer is already setup with ADB and stuff it'll be fine.

Anyway, my question is regarding ROMs for this phone. I've only ever flashed Cyanogen onto any device and those are pretty straight forward as far as what version of android it is. I don't see a whole lot going on with this phone as far as good custom firmwares go and it's kind of discouraging me from getting this device. The phone itself ships with 1.6 on it, and I've been using 2.2 on my Dream since the CM update came out... even though this phone totally dominates the dream, I don't fancy the idea of going back to Donut.

I'm having a really hard time finding which one of the "RXXA0XX" firmwares is the newest, and which versions they run.

Any help is mundo appreciate.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
R2BA026 is the newest unless you use AT&T, and all run X10 FW as of now runs on 1.6, and as the bootloader hasn't been cracked yet 1.6 is all you can run.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orbar:
Hi all,

I have just bought a Telus desire with 2.1 and i would like to upgrade it to 2.2. If i follow the unrevoked method to root will I recieve the stock 2.2 OTA update from htc? if not will I need to flash any ROM in order to receive the update?

The amount of information available is just overwhelming, Can someone point me in the right direction please.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guitarguy:
If you're willing to wait a couple of weeks, the official upgrade to 2.2 will be coming straight from Telus. They are announcing sometime in October (I haven't seen an exact date mind you).

If you'd like, you can verify this on mobilesyrup, or straight from the Telus website.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ecitron:
Mid october and still Nothing. That has to be a big joke.

Does anyone have some news? Gingerbread is for the end of the year...and we still have 2.1. Pisses me off tabarnak.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Gingerbread is unlikely to be (officially) on the Desire
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToddEDM:
just like the Hero i bought from Telus.... if it wasnt rooted it would be on 1.5

Telus doesnt like to give anything for free
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ecitron:
Even if I'm with Fido... I depend on Telus's update. Rooting is an option... but for those who want to keep their warranty...it's not.

What's the point to release such great phones if you dont have balls to offer the last updates in time ? If they cant handle it...then they should stay with their old dumbphones.

I mean... dont get me wrong.... All they have to do is to take the Official Froyo from HTC ...add their crappy apps....an push it over the air. Many developpers on XDA could do that within 1 week... but a big compagny like telus cant? f off.

What do you mean is this out somewhere?
[EVO 4G General] sshark:
ROM: Froyo 2.2. Rooted 3.28, Sprint/HTC Odexed --- Stock.

ROOT status: Rooted, Nand-unlocked, S-OFF

Overclocking/underclocking: None

I installed various versions of AOSP Email app which has capability of adding multiple exchange accounts.

In previous version of Email.apk (2.1), I could receive push notifications without background data or auto-sync enabled.

In this version (Email.apk, 2.2), after adding couple of Exchange accounts (Hotmail, Work) and setting them up to push, when I turn off both background data, performance of my EVO drastically decreases.

Linpack score (when background data [B]ENABLED[/B]): ~33

Linpack score (when background data [B]DISABLED[/B]): ~2.2

That's difference of approx 31 MFLOPS

This difference is noticeable even when I use any apps when background data is off. Performance is restored when I turn on background data.

I have tried all sorts of versions - Pure AOSP, CM6 Mods, Epic stock...I can reproduce same results. I have tried this on clean (without any other downloaded app) ROM as well.

I am wondering if anyone else is able to reproduce this and knows why this could be happening? Any response is appreciated!

[EVO 4G General] sshark:
Anyone so far? Can someone install this and test it?
[EVO 4G General] sshark:
anyone guys??
[EVO 4G General] Calkulin:
I also noticed this when I first got the EVO and it took a me a while to figure out. If you do a logcat, you will see the issue, the AOSP app was going crazy trying to do something with the calendar, so that's what causes the slowdown and I never found a fix, so I just dropped it
[EVO 4G General] sshark:
Thanks for the response. I found that if I use Email.apk from FRG83 on your build (I use your 1.4 EVio) then with sync set up PUSH an background data turned off, it does not go crazy.

At least performance is restored but that means I have to manually refresh mailbox everytime.

Interestingly, on android 2.1, I could PUSH sync my work emails even with background data turned off. If anyone can figure out reason as to what has changed between 2.1 to 2.2~, which now needs background data turned on for syncing?

[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
I had it on my phone for the last two hours, but now I switched back. It was much too slow for me, no comparison to the UNOFFICIAL 1.4, which is flying ;). Opening the contacts lasts 10 to 15 seconds, opening the browser blocked for I don't know how long.

Most likely it's not the ROM itself, but the CM nighties. This morning I did a similar thing, i.e. using the old HTCClay mixing with the lastest nighties and the effect was nearly the same. Probably we have to wait for a CM 6.1 RC.
[G1 Android Development] lolmensch:
hm strange i ran into no issues. ofc its not as fast as donut but our phones are jsut not built for that anymore ;)

so im pretty satisfied with it. using compcache and swap (32mb) with firerats patch...

thank you very much for this rum.

i like the theming ^^

Edit:

i tried it: opening for the first time while syncing took about 2 seconds..

I second that except that I tried turning off compcache and turning on JIT as recommended at first. the phone slowed to a crawl. Once I turned off JIT and rebooted it was back to snappy.
