Easiest way. Take SD card out, place into computer, drag-place, re-insert sdcard. Enjoy!
[Droid X Themes and Apps] brandon2x:
thats what i was trying to avoid Casen. its a pain to have to do that every time i add music to my itunes files on my pc. i have to go into it, try to remember which files i added, then add them manually. doubletwist seemed to work but its not transferring every file so i guess i'll try the tunesync app now...
[Droid X Themes and Apps] unboostedzc:
honestly i was the same way the first week i got my dx, coming from my iphone.

i used itunes for everything, podcasts, videos, music. now i dont miss it at all.

DT and TS were both okay to use, but in the end i now just use mass storage device and copy the files/folders over in a couple secs. for podcasts, doggcatcher or beyondpod on the phone will mean u never have to use the computer again.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] brandon2x:
yeah seems to me i'm just gonna keep doing it that way... thanks to everyone.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] jloya:
checked out Isync for itunes....I use it and honestly i could teach my grandma it so easy....they also have a isync wireless where it simply transfers over your network

piece of cakeee :)
[Droid X Themes and Apps] jbaruch76:
in case anyone is looking for this it's called isyncr, not isync. it works well, the wifi sync is a bit slow though so i don't really use it.

After learning a bit about editing Android's UI, I've begun to make progress towards converting HTC Sense into a clone of Samsung Galaxy S SmartLife UI. Progress has been somewhat slow, but I only started on October 9th so, meh.

Anyway, if anyone is interested in this project and would like to help out, it'd be greatly appreciated! If you're any good with photo editing (mainly the annoying stuff like removing the gradient backgrounds from anti-aliased images lol), please either post or send me a PM. I'm also available on Steam under the username diss4life.

Attached is some media of my work so far, which I'll be updating regularly as the project progresses.

I'm trying to look for an app I can use to tether my G2 wirelessly to connect to my girlfriends itouch when were not around wifi. Thanks.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] hawaiian.monzta:
Go to google and type in android wireless tether.apk and download it.it is a simple and very easy to use wifi tether app. You won't find it in the market though. I use wireless tether and it works perfectly

Is this only for rooted devices? It won't work on the stock G2.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] hawaiian.monzta:
Pdanet and easy tether you can use for stock G2. To use wireless tether, your g2 needs to be rooted. I forgot to mention that pdanet and easy tether does tethering through usb. So you can't get wifi tether through pda and easy tether. Id recommend rooting. Its simple and easy
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] ShaunMichael80:
wait till the OTA update...it comes with a Wifi tethering App
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Ssantos6981:
Isn't tethering part of the 2.2 update? I have it in my nexus one, I am getting the g2 next week though.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] legendary1022:
Unfortunately T-Mobile disabled the tethering. Probably afraid of the usage on there fairly new hspa+ network. Just use visionary app and download wireless tether and you'll be good to go. It is a temporary solution until we get perm root.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] dmx4life:
Until the OTA update comes or Root I've been using VISIONary for temp root along with Wireless Tether for Root User. Works like a charm. Two separate apps. Would be nice to see the temp root feature rolled up into the Wireless Tether App.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] smthkat789:
I cant figure out how to change the passphrase when I enable encryption.

I tried a simple 8 character - 15 character pass in example, abcde12345.

When my pc asks for network key, I enter that pass and it tries to connect but never does. I tried simple words and still cant get it to enable security.

What am I doing wrong?

I'm running pc winxp pro and g2 root wireless tether.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] hawaiian.monzta:
If you are using wireless tether apk then you dont have to worry about the passphrase. The reason being is cuz in order for a device to connect to your wifi, you have to authorize it (access control) when a device tries to connect, your phone recieves an unauthorized connection from that device. The ONLY way that the device can connect to the wifi even though its an open network, is if you give it access. Try it
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] joemm:
I am using the vision temp. root with the wireless tether apk and it works great, I tell you I really love using the tether with the 4g speeds of the G2 almost as if im on wifi..:)

Hey everyone, I really wanted a red Cyanogen bootanimation to go with Tazz B2 (don't ask me why lol) so I made one, nothing big, just solid red. Feel free to use it, it works :D But, you'll have to search the forums if you don't know how to install one. :eek: This is just a sharing session :D

Here's a 1 loop preview.

Grab the flashable zip "RedCyanogenBootanimation.zip" and flash in recovery...

Grab the "bootanimation.zip" and poosh eeet ;)

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brickopick:
see, I was planing to sell my MT3GS, but I had to get down from a 3 meter high sealing for a show, and when I was practicing how to get up there fast I forgot to get the phone out of my pocket, so I got up there, and when I sat down, it fell to the floor (I was sitting in a really thing place).

Luckily, the floor was wooden, and the screen didn't break, actually it works (and slides) perfectly well.

BUT

the problem is

that now the screen (the part you slide so you can use the keyboard) is kinda separated from the keyboard, I can press and it goes back to it's place, but as soon as I stop pressing down, it separates again.. I was wondering how can I fix this, and if a simple disassembly (and re-assembly) would fix this.

omg, I

really

wanna fix it, this phone is REALLY special for me!! (I bought it on my first trip w/ friends to the US).. :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdkoreclipse:
Its easiest to have HTC fix it, or just get it replaced.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brickopick:
get it replaced?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdkoreclipse:
that will work if you like the SLIDE, but if you want THAT PARTICULAR phone, try to get it fixed with HTC
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brickopick:
"if you want THAT PARTICULAR phone"? and will they do it even if I live in Paraguay (South America, they don't sell phones here)??
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdkoreclipse:
They will repair/replacee it anywhere in the world.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brickopick:
how much would I have to pay for it? And how can I contact them? (SORRY, for being such a dummy, and thank you for wasting your time helping me)
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdkoreclipse:
$90 (USD) for full replacement, so i guess it would be less for fix

Thank you very much! You helped me a lot!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] han.azuki:
I made an update.zip with JPK app (bloatware removed) and ji6 framework to compile an update.zip. however, i get the following issue where the home/search buttons do not work. i use ji6 kernel, tried 512 and 803 pit. after flashing the update.zip the buttons still are ok , but after i do sd card format/data wipe, that's when the buttons stop working :(

can anyone tell me what's wrong?

what's odd is that if i flash the jpk app/framework on my phone, the buttons work after sd card format/data wipe, but since jpk framework uses hsupa and currently captivate 2.2 kernel doesn't support it, we have to use captivate ji6 framework. (lots of crashes black screen happens when using jpk framework on captivate froyo)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] velocity92c:
My girlfriend has a Vibrant which is not hardware locked. I rooted and installed Bionix w/voodoo on Sept 28. I can't tell in her 'about phone' which version of Bionix she's running, but I believe it's 1.3, as the zip file I downloaded has 1_3 in the filename.

The first big problem I have is that nandroid does not work. If I try to restore to her stock backup I made, it gets an error when trying to mount data. Same error if I try to make a backup of the Bionix ROM. What am I doing wrong? Until I have her phone properly hacked I was just going to keep a backup of her phone and let her use that in the meantime, but can't do that now.

I am familiar with Android and clockwork as I've owned a Droid for half a year and flash new ROMs frequently but I've never encountered that error before. I want to install the new Bionix but without being able to make a backup I don't want to. I don't think it will install properly without being able to mount data anyway. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adm1jtg:
You have to remove voodoo in order to use clockwork.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] velocity92c:
Ok, I think I can handle that. Can someone explain to me why data can't be mounted with voodoo? Can I just delete the folder and flash the new ROM that includes voodoo?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildklymr:
Yeah in the bionix thread it says nandroid doesn't work with voodoo and shows how to disable it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikey98277:
It takes the data, and moves it to a virtual ext4 that it creates, so when nandroid is trying to backup or restore it is looking for the data folders in the wrong place, so it does not work.

You need to follow the voodoo thread, you need to place the file in the voodoo folder, if you delete the folder it may cause you allot more issues, you must install it the way they say in the thread or you can softbrick the phone. And you cannot flash a new ROM with it installed or you again will mess up the phone. The only thing you can do is create the file, put it in your folder and restart the phone, let it do its thing, once it reboots then nandroid will work again.

Noob and hacker in the same sentence...interesting
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgz01:
Pasted in from the Bionix thread:

How-to Disable the Voodoo Lagfix:

1. Once again, you MUST disable the Voodoo lag fix in order to flash any other rom, kernel, or perform a nandroid backup. If you don't...well....lets just say I warned you.

2. Its simple. Create a folder on the root of your sdcard called 'Voodoo'.

3. Now, open notepad or something similar and save the blank file. Name it 'disable-lagfix'. This file cannot have any file extension, so remove it if it does.

4. Place your blank file into the 'Voodoo' folder you made on your sdcard.

5. In order to disable, simply power down your phone and power it back up.

6. FINISHED! You can now flash anything you'd like!

How-to Confirm Voodoo Lagfix is Disabled:

1. In adb shell or terminal type 'mount'

2. If it is disabled is should read '/dev/block/mmcblk0p2'.

3. If it is not disabled, it will read '/dev/block/mmcblk0p4'.

There is also a flashable .zip file that does this for you, if you care to search around and find it. Otherwise, the above will work fine. Once you disable Voodoo and confirm that it's disabled, you'll be able to backup/restore nandroid backups again.
[Captivate Android Development] manuelzkv:
This kernel brings back the "2e recovery" (allows self signed update.zip's) in the JI6 froyo rom for the Samsung Captivate. Before install this you should have already flashed the froyo JI6 rom using the one click Odin downloader. As always flash this kernel at your own risk:

1. Power down your phone and boot into download mode.

2. Open Odin and then connect the phone to your computer.

3. Place the kernel into the PDA slot, do not select repartition, hit start.

4. Wait until your phone reboots.

Now you should have the "2e recovery" enabled, to root your captivate you can use the same update.zip method used in previous eclair roms:

1. Place the update.zip on your internal SD card.

2. Reboot to recovery and select "reinstall packages".

3. Wait until your phone reboots, it should be rooted now.

The kernel file is here.

The update.zip for rooting here.

Update: A new version of this kernel more compatible with clockwork recovery is here.

Cool going to see if this works with Cog 5.5.

Edit: works like a charm thanks.

You're my hero.

I'm gonna start testing this ASAP
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
Were you able to keep COG or once you flashed did you have to reinstall using ROM Manager? Nevermind, just flashed and kept Cog on there. Starts out really sloooowww. You just know everybody is going to be excited about this. Especially when the cooks are able to put it in there packages.
[Captivate Android Development] xuzer:
it works!! thanx.. now i don't have to do a kernel swap to get into recovery testing out i9000 roms
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
This is hacky at best ;)

you cant mount the sdcards
[Captivate Android Development] warri:
Did you rebuild the 2e recovery to look in the new mount places?

/mnt/sdcard and /mnt/sdcard/external_sd

those are the froyo mount points.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Well, I have no data or connetion to at&t what so ever after flashing this.

what went wrong for you but data works and sdcards mount here.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
1 - Successfully created nandroid backup.

2 - When i used Rom Manager to "install from zip" it worked, but 2e recovery was replaced by 3e, which was part of the sd zip.

testing nandroid restore now after kernel swap again.

edit: nandroid restore worked.... back where i started! =)
[Captivate Android Development] wolfester:
I just flashed this kernel, 3g is working (tested with some surfing the market) and so is regular ATT connection (got a text).

Will update if I encounter any problems.

P.S. thank you for making this, I've been waiting for it since I found out JI6 has the 3e crap.

So I already had stock 2.2 installed and I tried updating to this kernel with Odin and I get the following:

<ID:0/006> Odin v.3 engine (ID:6)..

<ID:0/006> File analysis..

<ID:0/006> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/006> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/006> zImage

Then the screen goes black on my captivate and it doesn't come back on until I pull the battery.... then I get the phone/pc error graphic.

Any ideas?

possibly try flashin the 2.1kernel , see if it turns on to At&t. if it does, then take out the battery and flash stock 2.2. if it reboots and works, then let it fully boot up and once it has, then turn off, reinsert battery and try this one again. hope that helps
[Captivate Android Development] lpsi2000:
After using it for while, it seems as it may not be stable for me right now. I am getting a lot of FCs and freezing with no patterns. I think the FCs are causing the freeze. It is pretty much doing the same things that happen when I use the I9000 Froyo Kernels with JI6 Kernel. I am going to flash back JI6 for while then try it again.

I am using Cog 5.5 and I am interested to see if anyone is having this issue too. It took at least 9 hours constant use before this came up.
[Captivate Android Development] irtehun:
Is had the same problem before. Are u plugging the phone in after starting Odin?
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
It is just an isolated incident for you with the FC's. I have had this since it was first posted without issues. Possibly wipe and try again if you are wanting it, it does seem from the reading that with a couple people it messed up the first time and worked after trying again. One guy said he tried Odin in compatibility mode on his comp so maybe try that?
[Captivate Android Development] manuelzkv:
The sdcard mounts fine for me, the "mount sd-ext" option in clockwork is for the app2sd feature in froyo but it seems that it is disabled. I have updated the kernel to mount the external sdcard in sdcard/external_sd, look at the first post.

About incompatibilities I only modified the recovery process and added some files, I didn't deleted anything in the initramfs or touched the kernel itself, so I wouldn't expect any problems if you have the stock JI6 kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] rraquib:
Working beautifully hear. Had cog 5.5 running, and just flashed the kernel. I was able to run a rom manager back up. Sd mounted fine, nothing has crashed yet in last few hours. Good job OP.

Any reason why the file-size difference?
