[Android Apps and Games] pieter3d:
Well, here is the new APK with the same hack applied. For me it looks like it just hangs up immediately, so I don't know if it is working. It doesn't complain about US being WiFi only though anymore.

Please respond below if this does or doesn't work for you.

[Android Apps and Games] mjdtucker:
I agree! Thank you for your hard work!
[Android Apps and Games] rashid11:
old one is mostly problem free for us, but what I am after is the sound - so that when a message is received, one gets configurable sound to come out.

May be the old one could be "fixed" to do that ... or, if the new one does that out of the box, it could be "fixed" to allow calls over Wifi

Yeah skype really has a stick up their ass with android. I don't understand why they aren't stepping up.

Can you guys check if you are receiving new chat notification sounds? I don't get them on the hacked version. Kind of sucks not to be able to get to new messages, unless you happen to look at the phone. Voice call sounds come in fine, but not IM sounds.

Anyone care to confirm this when the screen is off?

Even after following what I assume is the newest and latest version, it's still a no go on my Epic It just keeps telling me it can't sign me in.

The only version I've been able to get to work on my Epic is Skype (BETA) 0.9.1.0. The only downside is that it doesnt allow calls (obviously), but it also doesn't notify me of messages (I have to keep the app active on me screen since it doesnt make noise or anything) and it uses a TON of CPU, upwards of 75%...but it runs. Oh well.

Hey everyone, I kind of have a question that might be hard to answer. But maybe one of you can speak from experience with Rogers and android phones in general. Well my question is this. When the Rogers Captivate comes out later this month will the method of rooting be the same as the at&t version for the most part? I also wonder if there is a chance (maybe this has happened to other android phones in the past?) that Rogers will be a gigantic wiener and make it IMPOSSIBLE to root it at all?

Disregarding my questions for a second, it's a pleasure to finally join this forum and thanks for taking the time to read this.

Cheers!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
First off, welcome to XDA, glad to have you with us.

Now onwards with your question. It's almost impossible, maybe even illegal, for a carrier to block rooting on an Android device. The whole point of these phones is OPEN SOURCE. The rooting method should be almost identical for the most part. Because we don't have Rogers here, nobody can truly say for sure, but I'd imagine it would be the same.

Hey,

The phone releases this Monday and the model number for the Rogers version is SGH-i896 whereas the ATT version is SGH-i897. Some files would need to be updated but nothing major. Hopefully we get the support for the Rogers Captivate and can flash it with the awesome custom ROMS :D

(my first post on the forum and would love to learn and contribute to the awesome xda team)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
Welcome to you as well! I'm not so sure that any files would have to be updated. As long as the hardware is exactly the same, all should be well.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swapnil:
The update scripts have the model number in them which would have to be updated. Nothing major.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimer:
Interesting, for roms and such it does not sound like too much of a hassle. But maybe having the exact same hardware wasn't necessarily for the best. I got kind of excited with hopes that this new Captivate would be capable of handling 3.5G I think it's referred to HSPUA+ (Don't quote me on that!) Does anyone know if this is the case?

On a side note, do any current or upcoming phones support 3.5G on the Rogers network?

[Captivate General] askpcguy:
Might be a problem with the messaging app or something else. Pick up the android development kit and use the ddms.bat to open the debugger.

You might have to setup a path to the java.exe for the ddms.bat to use before it works but once you get it configured you can see why the app force closes.

Find the folder that's giving you the mp3 and add a dot a the begining, example .test that way the music player won't look in the there to get music

Has anyone tried to replace glgps with agps and modify init.rc to start agps instead? Since they have a working GPS fix we might be able to use that on the international Galaxy S. Isn't the hardware the same?

Not sure if this is a frequently asked question, but is Rom Manager working for the Droid 2? Matt's section give an error, and the rest either don't work or are not important at all. Is there anyway to fix this or is there a better app? Thanks.:confused:
[Droid 2 General] facelessuser:
Yeah it works. It allows you to install a newer superuser, manage backups, boot into recovery, install a new recovery if one becomes available etc. Matt's section I don't think is completely setup. When the bootloader gets cracked, I think this will be more useful with more roms available.
[Droid 2 General] HerroMoto:
Sorry I should have rephrased my question. I know everything works on it, but it doesn't have any roms on it. It just has the 2 superuser things to download on it and then it has 2 other sections that are empty. I just thought it would be up and running perfect by now.
[Droid 2 General] facelessuser:
Yeah, but there aren't any real roms. The so called roms that are out just replace system stuff, they aren't really full roms. If/when the bootloader is cracked, we will eventually get support for big name roms, and those will pop up in rom manager.

Companies are cracking down on modders; I don't know why. We are like 1% of the users. As long as this bootloader continues to stand in our way, rom manager is going to be pretty empty.

Dear Friends

I bought a new HTC Aria phone cell. Unfortunately when I was trying to make it possible read and write Persian language I decided to replace Libwebcore.so , libskia.so and libskiagl.so files. After this modification my phone cell stuck at boot on HTC logo.

I’m really sorry because I didn’t pay attention to others’ suggestion about making a Nandroid Backup. :(

If anybody has a rooted HTC Aria (Asia www version) please do me a big favor and do one of these solutions if it’s possible:

1) If you have a nandroid backup file and it’s possible to copy it manually to SD Card Post it here

2) Extract original Libwebcore.so , libskia.so and libskiagl.so files (ADB Pull … Method) and Post these files.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT:

Replace with original files.
