[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnttiV:
The reason is, I can unroot the thing if need be, but if it has a completely different (yes, not exactly completely, but it isn't the stock rom which came with this phone) ROM, I'm sure the repair shop will be happy to send me a bill next time I would have to send it to repair under warranty...

So it is NOT possible to use Apps2SD (or any other letter combination) with the Stock ROM?

Aw, that sucks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madd0g:
You voided warranty when you rooted it, so whats the point anyway. If you use the RUU update to unroot it, you'll get back to stock ROM. But for now, why limit yourself.

An option is Google's Froyo a2sd implementation -> http://myhtcdesire.com/tutorials/how-to-force-apps-to-sd-without-rooting-on-froyo

But that's crappy anyway, not all apps are movable and you gain much more space with a2sd+.
[Vibrant General] smeadow:
I currently running I5 update from Kies and would like revert back to the stock rom. I found this posting http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=740077 and would like to use it to flash back to stock. My question, anyone know of any problems with using STock_Vibrant.zip referenced in the above posting.

Keep in mind, I'm newbie to Android.
[Vibrant General] Pig Vomit:
The ROM you should use is JI6 (the latest official stock release).

I would recommend downloading Mini-Kies and see if you can upgrade to JI6 from JI5. If that doesn't work (someone has probably posted whether you can do this or not), then use ODIN to flash to the original stock JFD rom, then use Mini-Kies to upgrade to JI6.

You can find a link to download mini-kies from the Samsung support page for Vibrant.
[Vibrant General] smeadow:
Tried and all I get is unregistered device. Kies mini wants the original stock rom, which is why I'm reverting back.

You can now download the latest software update for new features and improved performance. It won’t delete any of your content and we’d recommend using a Wi-Fi connection as this is a large update. If not, standard data connection charges may apply. Any questions? Contact us via www.htc.com. After installing the update, you can confirm a successful update by confirming the Software number (From the Home Screen go to MENU> Settings> About Phone> Software Information> Software number). The new Software number will be 1.32.405.3

Update Information: Screen control and photo message compatibility enhancements

Note: We still recommend you back up your all personal data first.

I have just installed it and not noticed any difference (though my phone does not suffer with the proximity sensor problem reported by some)
[Desire HD General] DarrenT:
I've also not yet had a problem with the proxy sensor. My old version was 1.28.405.1 so i'm just updating now.
[Desire HD General] crossbox:
Cant seem to download this - am totally new to Smartphones - would I just download this to my PC or is there some other process ??
[Desire HD General] HasC:
@crossbox : Goto > Settings > About phone > System software updates.

It is best to update via wifi for fastest download, once downloaded, select install.

phone will reboot, can take a little while to reboot so makes sure you let it restart by itself.
[Desire HD General] crossbox:
Brilliant - thanks

Don't know why they don't have those instructions on the HTC page - fools
[Desire HD General] oawalker:
When i update my phone turns off and stays off . it doesn't restart

any ideas??
[Desire HD General] kingcedz:
just updated 1mon ago.

the process is simple, as usual, the key is always " DONT PANIC!"

go to manu - setting - about phone - system software updates - check now, and follow the on screen instruction.

The phone will restart a few times showing different screens, sometimes it looks like the phone is dead but its actually installing the update at background. during this process:

Dont remove the battery,

Dont force restart,

Dont press random keys,

and DONT PANIC!

the phone will do a full restart at the end of it and show up an system notification that the software has been upated to version 1.32.405.3
[Desire HD General] oawalker:
i know how the process works i have done it many times in the past. when the phone restarts it just stays off, i've left it for over 20mins and nothing. I have a feeling its because the phone is locked to tmobile.
[Desire HD General] Bartkevin:
Hey guys,

My phone had problems answering calls when i picked the phone from my pocket, it would either hang people up or make the screen disfunctioning, and make it impossible to slide the bar up or down.

after the update tried it a couple of times and the problem seems to be fixed!
[Desire HD General] Seraphic:
I've also got a T-Mobile locked device and I can't install the update either. Annoying.
[Desire HD General] gavthebarman:
This is the first thing I am going to do when I finally get my phone on Monday.
[Desire HD General] frottage:
I too am locked to T-mobile UK and the update worked a treat for me - incidentally HTC sense.com wasnt working very well prior to the update but its now working a treat
[Desire HD General] xmoo:
I updated aswell. Only diffrence Id seen, higher fps in benchmarks
[Desire HD General] mupet0000:
Update worked fine for me, I didn't have the proximity issue in the first place though. My device was T-Mobile locked but I've unlocked it before the update.
[Desire HD General] oawalker:
Managed to install it but i had to do a hard factory reset, then installed it and everything works fine now.
[Desire HD General] Seraphic:
Bit of a farce to get it installed on mine in the end. Created a goldcard and manually installed it using the recovery menu in the bootloader. Worked a treat.
[Desire HD General] mirsalimov:

(1) Will it install for 3 UK phones?

(2) What's better after applying this software update? Battery?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnyzilker:
first of all I'm really stupid when it comes to flashing this roms.... and even though i know that i flashed a rom i think the name of the rom was r3, which was suppose to be the software for the FFC of the vibrant. i fu.. up really bad and now my phone is stuck in the GALAXY S gt 19000.... knowing tht i might not be able to install the flash correctly i did a nandroid backup... but when i go into system recovery(pressing the up and down button and the power) i only get 4 options the reboot system, reinstall packages, delete all user data, and delete cache data.... but i dont know how to get into the nandroid recovery....
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cthach11:
What your doing is entering stock recovery. You need to enter clockwork recovery (nandroid is a feature of clock work). You can enter clockwork recovery through stock by selecting "reinstall packages." This should bring you into another recovery with more options. Select nandroid/back up and restore. I believe the option is not named nandroid in the new update in clockwork recovery in order to avoid confusion....

ahhh and my volume button are al messed up the up button is down now and the down button is up now... did i just broke my phone???
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badaphooko01:
It looks like you installed Eugenes newest froyo which wipes everything on your internal memory so that means your CW update zip file and your nandroid backup was deleted as well.

Same happen to me So I just started all over again flashing back to stock with odin and going with Bionix fusion, it also have FFC support as well.

P.S.your phone is not broken, you just need to decide where you want to go from here,
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnyzilker:
im trying to do that my problem is that i have a mac and i cant really find a video or a guide that shows me how to flash odin using a mac..... do u happen to know how to???
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badaphooko01:
wow, dont know how to do that.

Do you have adb set up? If so you can use android commander to transfer the CW udate zip to your internal sd card. I can upload to for you if you need. Once you have that you can The 2.1 Vibrant kernel then flash any rom of your choice.

Or find a freind that had a pc and use odin from there.

Did you give the phone enough time to boot up? Give it at least 10min.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnyzilker:
yes i downloaded the adb. i have my phone in download mode. i dont know where to get the android command...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badaphooko01:
sorry dude, just read its for windows only. Hmm!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M5devil:
I get the same message after backing up the ROM in CW. I do however see a recovery-update.zip file inside Clockworkmod folder on SDCard.

How come the update.zip file is not placed on the root after the ROM backup is complete? What am I doing wrong?

UPDATE:

I renamed the file to update.zip and placed it on the root. Tested and worked!
[Android Themes] Quantumstate:
I created a desktop direct messaging shortcut to call my boss, with a pic of an angry boxer dog. Made the pic as a gif and png with transparent background, although it's showing up as black on the desktop for some reason.

I assigned the pic as the shortcut's icon using Gallery, and I suspect that it's converting the background to black, but I cannot find where app pics are stored either on the SD or /system.

Any clues?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fldude99:
New to android and captivate, so excuse me if I'm missing something..but it seems that with one's google account being tied into all the functions, including buying in the market with the credit card on file with google..there has to be a setting to not allow the device to be used with a different sim..or some kind of security that will lock down your google account if the phone is stolen? Is something built in..or is there an app out there that people generally use for peace of mind?

EDIT: All of the recent Nokia phones I've had has a setting to not allow a different sim to be used
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartan062984:
Very interesting. I too would like to know the answer. This is one of the many reasons why I NEVER use:

A) Mobile Banking

B) Purchases of any kind that includes Plastic

C) Setup any accounts that wire account info

Call me paranoid, but hey, it will save you a ton of headache on that unfortunate "if" day. Please keep us posted.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fldude99:
So does anybody have an answer...or at least some kind of marketplace app that is used for security?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fldude99:
So is nobody interested in security? Or is there just no simple solution..one thing that I miss on my Nokia N97 is the remote lock..send a text of a secret word, and poof the device is locked...done
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayv:
I think people are interested to some degree but no widely known easy method. And just an fyi, rooting your phone and gaining superuser privileges - as many of us have done - creates a big security hole for trogin malware attack, so if you have rooted your phone take care and know what your installing and try to pay attention to anything using super user privileges.

Can you help to unlock my SGH-T959?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Waxwrong:
unlocking

You could try dc-unlocker (free download) but it will only work if they have your item on their list of supported devices. I used their software to unlock a usb modem and it worked great but if your item is supported you have to join (free) but purchase tokens with paypal. Tokens, if I remember correctly, were 1 euro each and it took 4 tokens off my account when it unlocked my modem. I thought then, and still do, that it was value for money.

Hi,

First of all, download the ideal stock ROM for your phone. Have a Gold card handy! It will be of great help if u have made a note of your Stock ROM version, else you can find it by location on http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Click then, install HTC sync. Then plug your phone via USB to the PC. Htc sync should detect your phone. Then, run the downloaded RUU based stock ROM from the PC. Follow the on screen instructions. DONOT remove the USB untill the update is fully completed.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freekyfrogy:
Only problem is that MIUI is a froyo based ROM, and froyo isn't fully functioning on the vibrant yet. It will be much easier to port it over once Samsung releases the official froyo update and we can grab the drivers. Once that happens, though, I would LOVE to see MIUI on the vibrant! I got a chance to play with it on my buddy's droid and it's awesome :D

yes but correct me if i am wrong eugenes froyo rom through odin is working the only thing that is still wrong with it is that the home and back buttons are switched but like i said i think i am wrong but even if i am wrong cant a dev re-map the buttons when creating/ building MIUI? also was the EVO on 2.2 when they were able to get MIUI? i just havent had time to go check all of the threads.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junkdruggler:
Yes, anything that had a port of miui has froyo.. The galaxy s line of phones can't get anything but the stock roms to work.. eugene has just removed most of the touchwiz.. After we get a full built from source aosp rom running you can expect some custom ui ports but for the moment all we have is touchwiz or most touchwiz removed..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackoakx22:
oh ok then. now if only tmobile would release Froyo. curses.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junkdruggler:
Now just because we get froyo and the source code doesn't mean it will happen.. The only real rom developer we have is eugene.. so if he doesn't like miui then its probably not going to happen...

I ended up plugging it intoace my desktop and booted into download mode blind,after 4 tries it went to download mode,and it flashed back to stock successfully with odin,then i flashed the rom the right way.

basically,if you have a dell d600 laptop,save yourself the frustration of getting Odin to work and use a different computer. I tried on mine and my brother's,both did the same thing.

Well froyo is supposed to come in November.

So I'm hoping that sometime in December we will get froyo ROMs emerging (CM6 will probably be one of the first).

I just hope some dedicated people at least try to get MIUI on the Vibrant/Galaxy S/EPIC/Captivate/Fascinate. Because if they get one of the Galaxy S phones running, then it will greatly help, the rest of the series.

hi,

already asked this on the official sony-erricson forum but no response, so maybe someone here can help....

has anyone managed to connect an external microphone to the x10 for video recording? maybe with some kind of self-made adapter?

not talking about hands-free sets but rather a more "professional" recording microphone.

i already tried to connect various external microphones (active and non-active) to the phone but then i only get statics / clicking noises.

reason i'm asking is i took a video at a concert but the sound is clipping really bad... really a shame especially with upcoming 720p recording.... :(

(maybe another solution would be if it was possible to adjust the sound recording level... any app for that?)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] argnom:
It should be possible to add an external microphone. You probably will need a homemade adapter. The headphone/microphone jack is a TRRS connector (tip, ring, ring, sleeve). Check Wikipedia for TRS. The "pinout" is listed there.
