[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eazyrider:
OK so I had an accident the other day and my phone got ran over :(

I think it still works as the picture shows the phone screen has power to it and the green LED is showing...

I want to know if there is a way to access the phone via usb so I can get some numbers and text messages of there as I run my business from it and if I can access the messages and numbers I will gain around £400 in work that had to be done!

Yes I know I should have backed up more often and know there are apps that would have saved texts but hindsight is a wonderful thing :rolleyes:

So is there a way to get into the phone?

I have been looking and found new outer cases and new screens but it would cost a lot so that option is out and I have been looking for broken X10's to use for parts but again no luck. So it will have to be sorted via insurance but I know that means I will lose the data I need.

Can anyone help me?:D

Was it not set to sync with your google account?

That will back up all your contacts, then its a painful process of calling them explaining the situation to continue business.

Nope as I hated the Google sync so used to manually sync using SE once a month but I need the unsaved texts and numbers in the call log. :o

Thanks for that, will try it later as I just realised my battery is at my mates so will get it tomorrow.

But I did notice this:

MyPhoneExplorer is basically compatible with all Phones from SonyEricsson except XPERIA, P800i, P900i and P910i.

From the readme

you may struggle to get it into debugging mode if you cannot see the screen properly :(
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eazyrider:
Praying to god debugging mode is still on from root!

So I can litraly start the phone plug the usb in and this will allow me to access the phone without any screen/button presses?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmaximax:
You still need to put the phone into debug mode on the handset afaik ....

I've only used this via the APK and WIFI connection someone else here can maby guide you through to getting it into debug on the handset but if you cannot see anything then you may not have a chance at all :(
[Epic 4G General] chocoberry:
I searched this forum and found that many people got the same issue, and they solved the problem by getting a replacement.

So I went to the sprint service center and told "its the way it works." Nonsense to me.

Is there anything else I can try to fix this problem?

Should I send this phone to samsung, or just refund is the only way?

Thanks in advance.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bennettm89:
Alright,

After having root taken from the 2.2.1 update (and refusal to do rageagainstthecage), I am taking the plunge and flashing a custom ROM. I have downloaded and stored a stock, unrooted rom on my SD card (FRG83) from Modaco. My question is a very sad one, but after much searching, I don't feel I have gotten an answer that is adequate. What's CM6 nightlies all about? I will be flashing the most recent CM6 ROM soon, but if there is a way to pull for updates via CM6 and have it update every night at 3:00AM or so, that would be optimal. Any advice, flaming, links, support, or additional questions is welcomed.

Thank you

Hi There,

I am using shubCRAFT Mod on my HD2. When I change wallpapers, I get many options like CyanoGen Mod Wallpapers, Gallery, and etc. One of these options is 'Theme wallpaper'. When I click on this I usually get a black screen. I just wanted to know what is this option for? Is there a folder I can drop in the wallpapers so that this option does not show black screen?

Thanks for you help and time.
[HD2 General] ekerbuddyeker:
Screen shows everything but touchscreen doesnt function. Occasionally does, then dies again. Have reflashed ROMs, radios etc. Always the same.

Anyone know what this means?
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
I think it means you need to try and get it replaced under warranty.....

if thats not an option then you'll have to pay for a repair.....

or get a new phone I guess.......
[HD2 General] ekerbuddyeker:
yes, I reckon I fried it by reflashing it too much.

I had to get an IPHONE (aaahhhhh) until the HDC Desire HD comes out. Dont like the look of WM7 (for the HD3) and think its a wrong move to buy another HD2 which is a year old (even though it has been the best device I have ever owned, especially now as I was dual booting it). I am feeling lost without my HD2.
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
i seriously doubt you overflashed it........

sounds like a lcd/digitiser fault...

:(

sorry man
[HD2 General] eenbox:
Well, so long my TMO-US HD2 ... dead screen as of tonight...

I just used the dam thing 2 hrs ago and everything was fine. Then it started getting stuck couple of times and finally dead as of 8PM Central time... URGH ... anyhow it is still under warranty and it is being replaced.

What I really like was T-Mobile service handling: it took me only few minutes (9 to be exact) to have everything setup. Told them I did Hard-Reset already - they verified liquid damage sticker (white color square sticker in the inner space of where battery is on the top of it - underneath camera and flash lens) and got it all taken care of by Tmobile Rep Stacy...

Very nice to see T-Mobile has stepped it up.

I am thinking about getting this one sold and buying another android phone - like desire HD or something... haven't researched prices and what not :)

But I really cannot seem to find many keyloggers for the android, or anything that seems comfortably reliable.

Man, that's so expensive T_T

And to the OP, I know what you feel :D
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Delvaris:
I'm going to regret this, but I'm going to give you some free advice:

You need to either break up with him or decide you're willing to sit down talk it out and trust him. A keylogger isn't the answer. He will discover your deception and it will destroy any chance you have of salvaging the relationship up. If you think the relationship isn't worth salvaging then just break up and save your money, its not worth being in if its not worth saving.

Reference/Experience: Psychologist.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Familyguy1:

[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] pkopalek:
One of my bosses' kids are at the age (teenagers) where they are wanting Smart Phones now.

He actually has stated that he doesn't feel comfortable just letting them have em, if he doesn't have some kind of keylogging app, or a keyboard that sends data to someplace where he can monitor, just in case. Especially for his daughter.

I feel for him, but I KNOW a lot of people would use it for the wrong reasons.

This shouldn't really be a taboo topic.

And I hate to say it, but suggesting 'breaking up' or a 'psychologist' doesn't really help with the Android App question that she had.

I have been looking for a solution to this too for a while, OP, and have found nothing.

Sometimes it's not about living out your jealousy, sometimes it's about PROVING that someone is a liar, because they are doing it to all of their friends and family, and it's TIME for someone to be smarter than they are.

Just saying. Even though I'm a guy.

I'll still be watching this topic, just in case someone has something helpful to post.

New to posting, new to rooting...responders beware! =)

I think I rooted my phone the other day with unrevoked3 but the files i have on my pc I didn't use. None of them are zip files like forums/youtube videos were showing people installing.

Unrevoked installed successfully, I saw the black screen with green lettering (boot screen?)...but I had no zip file on my SD card to install. When I search my apps the Superuser Permissions app is there and does notify me when I try to open certain apps, etc.

Haven't been able to install wifi tethering either so it makes me wonder what I'm missing exacxtly.

Any help would be appreciated! Keep it in laymans terms please!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jasoraso:
You might want to post in the Incredible forum; rather than in this general forum. But I think you are rooted. There are several different methods out there to root; the youtube videos mostly focused on the early methods that were much more difficult. The Unrevoked 3.21 method does not require installing an update.zip or any of that rigamarole.

What is the error when you try wifi tethering? If you install the version from the Market (Wifi Tether 2.02) you need to add some additional files, or run a custom ROM that adds those files. Later (beta) version of wifi tether (2.09 is the latest) includes those files, so you don't need to worry about adding those extra files.

As I mentioned, you will get a better response to an Incredible-related question in the incredible forums ...

[Vibrant General] tpreludesh:
yes there is, i just got off the phone with android support, the update is supposed to have 40 + bug fixes, not specifically named but they are there, the battery accuracy is now fixed, media hub is activated officially, not a leaked version, the gps is fixed, the compass is fixed, contacts sync is fixed, calendar alarms are fixed to work properly now, no word on a widget though, a new 10th anniversary sims game is included, different from the one we had at launch apparently. there are other things too, but i forgot some of them, but overall, a solid update if i do say so myself.

Will Kies Upate phones still get the OTA update.

So i have seen the question but not the answer, I did the Kies update I think it is called JI5, will I still get the OTA update?

If not anyone have a link to instructions on how to rollback the kies update.
[Vibrant General] fudo jay:
Did you get an update by any chance? :mad:
[Vibrant General] masterotaku:
OTA Updates are rolled out in batches, not all at once. It generally takes weeks for an OTA to get to everyone.

You can either patiently wait for it, check daily manually, or just Odin JI6 as it's already here in the dev forum.

If you're not on JFD stock, then you've already become accustomed to taking matters into your own hands. Why stop now? :)
[Vibrant General] SamVib:
I have the same question. I am on JI2, but I want to know if I will get the update.
[Vibrant General] Zylograth:
it is my opinion that as long as you are running the stock kernel then you should be able to load the JI6 update when it is pushed OTA. I have nothing to prove this other than my own logic. So until someone running JI5 can tell us they got notified and updated then we will have to wait and see.
[Vibrant General] ajftl:
So frikin excited ....I think im gonna pass out ....
[Vibrant General] hitman818:
Will i get the ota if i dont have a data plan and internet? I put my sim card on the vibrant that i upgraded with my moms number.

[Captivate General] fatbas202:
So I was running Cog 2.2 Beta 1 and decided to upgrade to Beta 3. I did the Odin JF6 1-click to flash and then flashed to Cog 2.2 Beta 3, no problem.

This morning I was trying to downgrade to 2.1. I tried to go directly into download mode and holding vol up/vol down after inserting the battery while plugging in the USB cable. That did not work, it went straight to the battery charging screen. Then I used 'adb reboot download' and it worked. Odin found the phone and started flashing. And then hung. For like 8 minutes. I rebooted and now I have the exclamation point between the phone and computer pretty much no matter what. I'm thinking the 3 button recover broke somehow.

I've tried this:

Method 3: (KEY COMBO)

1. Remove the battery, sim card, sdcard if you have one

2. Insert the battery

3. Hold both Volume buttons (from i9000 just down, don't touch the power button)

4. Plug in the USB cable and continue holding both Volume buttons

Several times with no success. Any other ideas or am I screwed?

(BTW, I've searched the forums and have not come across this exact issue, so please forgive me if this is answered elsewhere.)

Thanks!
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Use adb command is the fast way to get you into the current state (I've done this once myself).

There used to be instructions on the OneClick Odin thread help your recovery from this state. The way you posted above is not the one. Somehow this was removed.

IIRC, you have to use 3-button method:

1. Hold both vol+ and vol- then press and hold power button.

2. Continue to hold 3 buttons and wait for your phone to boot up then black screen then boot up again.

3. Hopefully, by second or third time, your phone will be in download mode. You can release the buttons after that.

Good luck.
[Captivate General] fatbas202:
I've tried this method a few times, letting up off of the power button at different stages. No luck. I think it's hosed. Stupid broken 3-button combo...

Ends up mine was bricked and AT&T says they will replace it. Which is cool, but it sucks because they will have an XML of all of my text messages, all of my TiBu files, and a ton of other personal data on the internal card that I do not know how to wipe after a brick. We'll see if they try to steal my identity or something.

Samsung Vibrant OTA Update Starting 10/7/10.

Posted 10-07-2010 08:03 AM

We are pleased to share that starting October 7, T-Mobile and Samsung will begin to send an over-the-air (OTA) update to Samsung Vibrant customers, which will provide a number of benefits and improvements, including optimized GPS performance and new access to the Samsung Media Hub, which offers a robust collection of movie titles and TV programming for purchase or rental.

The update will be sent to customers in staggered waves and we anticipate all customers will receive it by the end of October. Customers will be notified of the OTA via the Android Operating Notification Bar located at the top of the Vibrant phone screen.
