[General Questions and Answers] Kameirus:
i was wondering if anyone could tell me what manilla files contain these icons

i know the bottom 4 are gonna have 2 each a 64x64 and a 128x128

but im not sure about the 2 on the side

Thanks in Advance
[General Questions and Answers] Agent Zach:
If you mean the two on the side, as in the Call Mobile and Send SMS icons, I've attached the full set below [SMS, Mobile, Home, Work, etc..] Just extract the manila files in the ZIP to a dedicated folder. I've also attached a zip which includes the Tab Icons amongst the slider tray, as well as the Large Preview images.

All of the manila files have the System & Hidden Attributes, so you'll have to un-hide all hidden files, as well as show the system files, if you wish to simply get the manila names.

But if you want to edit, open CFC-GUI, and direct CFC-GUI to the folder with the extracted manila files.

INFO ::

'People Manila Files.zip' includes the icon set for the Left-Most icons in your picture (SMS, etc..)

'People Manila Tray & Slider.zip' includes ALL of the tray/slider icons, as well as the large Preview Icons that appear when sliding, from the People/Contacts area, .

Is there a way to back up the kernel on my existing ROM before I flash dumfuqs latest one? In case I don't like the latest one is there a way to revert back to the original kernel? Thanks in advance!
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guitarist5122:
I might be wrong but i think the normal kernel is included with the rom and you just reflash the rom if you dont like the oc kernal (or nandroid backup)
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pettigrew95:
Ok I get that but I was wondering in regards to lets say if I install the new kernel and then installs apps and make system settings changes and then I want to revert back to the old kernel without losing the apps and system settings? Also I'm asking this because I'm thinking about flashing the dumfuq 3.5 kernel on Chiefs OTA update ROM. Anyone running this combination? Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NorcoFox:
Hello, I have searched around for solutions for this problem but can't find anything that helps me; I have an 8gb external sd card with some music, files, etc. stored on it. There are three problems I have noticed so far with this:

The music files are not found by the stock music player or any others except Tinyplayer

Pictures stored on the external SD card only show up in the gallery until the media scan runs and then they dissapear, but are still accessible through Astro.

And I am unable to transfer files from the external sd to the internal sd

As mentioned above I can still play music files with tinyplayer and access photos using Astro but this is a very annoying problem! I have also tried formatting the card (FAT32) but this has not fixed the problem.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Solved thanks to:

Deleting this file solved my problem!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
using astro you can copy and paste file from external to internal, but why do you want to do that?

after the media scan runs, the thumbnails will remain until you eject the external card again

using gallery picture viewer you can see external sd pictures

it use a music player called "player" way better than the stock player, and you can have the pictures anywhere and it will pick it up
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NorcoFox:
The thing is I can't though, if I try to move a file from external to internal Astro brings up an error that says "Move Error - Move Failed".

When taking photos and videos I have set it to store them in the external card but after they have been taken they only appear in the gallery momentarily and then will dissapear even though the card is still in the device.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] exadeci:
Save your files on computer and format sd from phone
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NorcoFox:
Sorry I've tried formatting and the same thing happens annoyingly! :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] exadeci:
Find someone with a card and try with his. Yours might not be good
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
it sounds like the Internal SD card is the problem here, not the External

are you able to create any file or save anything into the Internal SD?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DSF:
Same here with Astro.. If I try to copy with My Files works ok.

Media is OK (in Music app, Gallery, etc)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
what ROM are you 2 running?

that doesn't sounds right to me at all

I copy and paste files often between external to internal SD card and viceversa using Astro File, and it works without the error message you guys have reported.

try upgrading to a newer version of Astro File

if "my files" app is working then it must be either a bug in Astro version you guys are running or a bug in the ROM

i'm on Astro 2.5.2
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NorcoFox:
Saving files to the internal sd seems fine and I am using the stock ROM, not rooted or anything special!

I have found out I can move files from external - internal and viceversa using the My Files App! So that particular problem must be something to do with Astro, which is strange because I am also running version 2.5.2!

I still have the problem of not being able to see media stored on the external card through most apps though, so I will try @exadeci's tip tomorrow and put some songs and pictures on an alternative card and let you all know how it goes!

Thanks for the help so far though guys
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sargasso:
do you have a .nomedia file somewhere high in the directorytree?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NorcoFox:
YES! It's fixed, I created a .nomedia file on the root of the external sd when I first got the phone and forgot about it, just deleted it and everything is now fine! Thank you very much!

I am having trouble installing themes because I dont know how to. Sorry I am new, can anyone please help me out here? My phone is rooted, and also i have another question.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fit333:
Theres some mods in themes and apps section you could try. You may need metamorph from the market or flash with clockwork app. Check the bible/tips and tricks too, but always follow directions and do a clockwork backup first..gl
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] All~G1:
I am almost positive there are no flashable themes for any ROMS that are out now. ( Well any that are current.) If you flash an old theme on a new ROM you will must likely get a brick due things like the framework being changed.

Metamorphs can only be done through metamorph itself & themes in the markets are got home replacements only.
[Captivate General] boomerod:
Well, I ran across this little tibit in my relentless search for more information on the timeline for Froyo on this line...

Earlier, I posted a thread about another rumor I found on the net indicating AT&T & T-Mobile would get Froyo by mid-October. Reading between the lines of these two tibits, and considering the impending loss of exclusivity of the iPhone for AT&T, we might just get Froyo even before the I9000. I know, that doesn't make sense when you consider how many builds ahead the I9000 appears to be over Cappy, but who knows if that really is the case. Moreover, AT&T really needs this phone to work right as it is, at the present time, their best Android offering. Sure would be nice if this ends up being the case. :D

http://www.product-reviews.net/2010/10/06/samsung-galaxy-s-update-on-android-2-2-froyo-release-date/

P.S. 5 minutes remaining on my download of Cog 2.2 Beta 4!!! :D

This is release in the UK how does that indicate that it will be around the same time in the US. There is no mention of US companies in that article.

[Hero CDMA General] HeroMeng:
Well, the Hero's first birthday or release anniversary is next Monday. How long have you had your Hero for, and when do you plan on keeping it until? I got my hero on launch day, rooted it in December, and plan on dumping it next month.
[Hero CDMA General] iczerjones:
Got mine back in march and it's just been getting better and better with the outstanding dev support and dedicated community we have here. This had been my first Android phone, and what a wonderful introduction it's been!

I'm in no hurry to replace it, but of course some of the new handsets out there are damn tempting..
[Hero CDMA General] miguelfp1:
I've got mine since Oct. 8, 2009... from a Sprint store, I lucked out and was able to buy it two days before launch :D
[Hero CDMA General] user7618:
I got mine in April when I came back to Sprint from AT&T. I dearly love my Hero, especially since I rooted, but those new phones are awful tempting. :-D

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Froyo on Hero action here!
[Hero CDMA General] dynamicpda:
I got the Hero sometime when it started to get cold and dark here, ie October or November, and I didn't root the phone until early this year when I got tired of waiting for the official Sprint update (to 2.0? 2.1?).

That seems so long ago. The software updates from this community have been super but the phone is feeling old and underpowered. I get to upgrade in November.

I'd love to upgrade to one of the 4G android phones but wonder if I should wait a little longer until the next greatest phone is released.
[Hero CDMA General] user7618:
This is the problem I'm facing. :) My one year upgrade is in April, but I'm unsure if I should upgrade or wait it out.

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Froyo on Hero action here!
[Hero CDMA General] mdhscanes24:
Got mine in January. Rooted about a month ago due to wanting some froyo. My upgrade is in January. Thinking about waiting for the new mobile processors to be out to upgrade.
[Hero CDMA General] jeadly:
Got mine on launch day, rooted for some froyo a few weeks ago. I'll probably wait to upgrade till a new model makes me go "oh wow!" which nothing on the radar has done yet.
[Hero CDMA General] ASimmons:
I will not upgrade until sprint has dual core phones next year... if you buy the evo or the samgsung your making a mistake.
[Hero CDMA General] dynamicpda:
A lot of us are in the same boat. The companies like to keep us guessing so we can't plan too far ahead. I've Googled a bit and can't find anything definitive on new phones in the next few months.

Any clue when dual core phones might be released?

I can wait until January, but if it's gonna be say April, I might as well have an Evo 4G for as long as I can. My market has 4G now and the tether would be useful.
[Hero CDMA General] HeroMeng:
Yeah, I feel the same way. I don't like having outdated technology for too long, but I would wait it out if it wouldn't be too long. Some of the people at my Sprint store say that 4G comes around these parts (Jersey Shore) in December and something codenamed HTC Sabor, dual-core 1.5ghz is coming out in April. With the rate technology is advancing, doesn't seem to far fetched to me.
[Hero CDMA General] blampars:
Got my hero last November and still love it to death. I don't plan on replacing it when my upgrade comes next month, I want to wait and see what's coming out next year first.

Running cm6 is my only saving grace really. If it wasn't for that rom I'd probably have dumped this for the evo by now.

My main use of the phone is email, rss, and tethering. As long as it continues to perform those well I should be able to hold out till the dual cores arrive. I hope heh.
[Hero CDMA General] guitardoc64:
I got mine back in May this year. Rooted it, (thanks regaw!) and tweaked it with NfiniteFX's roms. It is my introduction to Android phone, and I've been impressed since day one. I'm keeping mine at least till my upgrade.
[Hero CDMA General] Mac11700:
I got my first Hero in May..it lasted a 1-1/2 weeks..traded it in on a TP2..one of the worst mistakes in cell phones I ever made.I went through 4 of them before finally getting a Hero back last August. Rooted it on 8-26-10. This month Sprint broke my contract I had..and will be moving to a Galaxy S Captivate next week.

I can say it has been quite a bit of fun with them for the short time I've had them rooted.Too bad for the person buying it,since I will revert it back to 1.5 via RUU before shipping it in..( All 4 of my families is already sold and mine needs to be made stock :(:(:(:(:( so sad..) Hopefully the Captivate gets as much love from the developers as the Hero has..I've heard Cyanogen is considering porting CM6 over sometime..and if we can get the new Gold theme the Impaler and others have been working so hard on over..I'll be very happy..

I am not too worried about how it will fair against what

is

coming out.,and what is speculation.It has a very strong and quite separate CPU & GPU with gobs of storage and ram available,and when FroYo is out for it this quarter..will really come alive then. Being able to oc it as we have for the Hero will be a 2 fold job for the developers..one for the kernel..and one for the GPU..

I see faster and smarter phones with better themes on the horizon for everyone..

[Hero CDMA General] srb7215:
I got mine on release day. Had to drive all over the city to find a store that still had one in stock. I questioned it at the time but after I got the phone there was no such worry. It has been a great phone and I will hang onto until I find something else that can live up to the expecations I know have.

I am intrigued at what Palm might roll out. I had the Pre for almost a month before this phone and if it was for some bad hardware I would still be a Web OS owner. Android is great but Web OS was pretty awesome. So I will wait to see what else comes.
[Hero CDMA General] mrinehart93:
WebOS was so nice. If only WebOS would come out on a phone that has good build quality... One can hope, eh? But like most of you guys, I'm just going to hang onto my Hero until it dies or something ridiculous comes out.

[Hero CDMA General] cmason1015:
I got mine at the beginning of December. I rooted and jumped on the CM6 bandwagon last month. So for now I'm lovin' it. I'm thinking about getting an EVO cheap after Xmas and giving my wife my Hero, but not sure yet...

My biggest complaint about my Hero is just the overall lack of support (I read it as laziness) from Sprint and HTC. First there was the unbelievably long wait for 2.1, then it takes them almost 4 more months to fix the phone lag issue? And forget about finding accessories for it, I finally hacked together the car mount like thematrixkid17 did in another post. I'm wondering if it will be like that for the EVO and Epic, or did Sprint learn a lesson.....

So I'll hold of buying another Android device till I'm convinced either Sprint or the community will support it, and there are some decent accessories made for it. I know I may be waiting for a while.
[Hero CDMA General] Asadullah:
I remember it like it was yesturday. I went in got a samsung moment and there it was a sprint hero. I knew it was the phone I wanted to spend my next two years with (or till they get dual core phones). I took the moment home messed it up trying to root it next day took it back and got the sprint hero. Few hours later I was rooted and running darchlegend. (Also learned I don't like sdx developers and how to read threads)

[Desire General] cristianomc:
Why in the hell HTC devices have so bad signal reception? I went to a underground cinema yesteday and for my surprise when I looked at my Desire it was "Limited service", in other words, with no signal. So I looked to my girfriends iPhone 3Gs and it was 3 bars and when I looked at her Nokia N95 it was full bars!!! Of course, all three phones from the same operator.

When will HTC fix this bad reception problems? Desire is my 4th smartphone and all of them was HTC. My next, for shure, wont be. Why I need a supersmartphone if it isn´t capable of do the basic, act like a cellphone with good signal reception?

Also, this my 3rd HTC device that have problems with notifications. Sometimes the sms notification sound and even the call notification doesn´t sound at all. Does LG or Motorola also suffer from problems like this? And about the ROM without Sense?

Any advice, please? :confused:
[Desire General] n1blo:
Firstly, wrong forum.

Secondly, can't say I have an issue at all with signal. It's been a decent chunk better than previous phones.
[Desire General] AndroHero:
your gunna get flamed for posting a dumb question like that in developent :rolleyes:
[Desire General] dmpwd:
why can't you just read forum rules?

bad signal may be caused by a list of factors.

maybe you can consider updating your radio?

anyway, it's not fair to blame HTC for the problem and say that all their devices suck.

perhaps you have a malfunctioning or a defectuous unit... it happens.
[Desire General] Mikroft:
Word. This phone for me has awesome reception and everything on it has worked great for me. Like others say there are various factors. ie. radio firmware and network frequency.

[Desire General] cristianomc:
Sorry for the wrong place but... it´s here!

C´mon guys.. let the passion out of this... Take a N95 and a Desire and compare signal reception!

I agree Desire have the best HTC device signal reception to date but it must be better. I did firmware update and it´s the same. The only thing I didn´t do was update radio.

About the HTC sucking I mean HTC is sucking on signal reception when compared with the smarphones I told. I like HTC, and as I said, ALL of my smartphones was from HTC.

Cheers!

[Desire General] beanbean50:
I used to only get 2 bars and that was above ground! I then flashed the new .48 radio and now have full bars
[Desire General] Stewge:
errr...

You do realise that the "number of bars" really doesn't mean very much? If you want a REAL reading on your signal level, go to "Settings->About Phone->Status" and look at Signal Strength.

Signal is measured in dBm which is a logarithmic scale. Therefore just because one person has "4 bars" and another has "2 bars" doesn't mean person A has twice the signal. Obviously, it also depends on how the software reports the values ;)
[Desire General] millab:
... and how many bars the phone displays :p
[Desire General] marinierb:
Jesus has good reception?
[Desire General] TieT:
hahahah :D

No but i have to give the guy some credits... my old N97 had way better reception than my desire.

And my desire is up to date :)

I gave the N97 to my girl and when i compare it sometimes, the nokia has better reception no doubt.

On the same carrier !

When i swith to GSM only on the desire i have perfect reception everywhere.

GSM reset =master reset, e.g. wipe out every thing on your phone.

You can get same thing by delete gps data in lbstestmode. Whether or not it helps your gps is debatable.
