[General Questions and Answers] Radikaal:
Yes this started recently, currently its affecting 2 of my purchased apps SlideIT and FolderOrganizer. I find them both under "Downloads" in market, and as "Purchased". They can be downloaded without problems, but when i start them, after 10sec if connected to internet, a error box comes up and doesnt go away saying i need to purchase full version. On checkout.google.com they all have been succefully bought and money has been taken from my bank account.

I think it started few days ago after i flashed a rom on my Desire (defrost 6.0) but not sure. After that i factory resetted and installed Opendesire .36 and still same problem. Anyone that might know what the issue is, how to fix it or how to get contact with market support team (not user forum??).

Im running non-updated version(i think, ver1.82 of market since Opendesire doesnt autoupdate market it seems. Would also want to know if its anyway to update manually.

/Very frustrated man, since its the 2 most important apps on my phone! :mad:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ekbuz:
The Diamond has a memory card, it's just not removable. Just use the 'internal storage' where ever you were expecting to go to an SD card.

Did you find the threads about android on diamond?

Should be here somewhere in the ROM development section:

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] programmerboy:
I recently switched to Mobilicity from Rogers...but the irony is that I can't use my lovely X10 on Mobilicity. Mine is X10a, and I recently flashed it to X10i (although I didn't know it will switch to X10i, but it did) using xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=825201 tutorial.

Ok, the big question is that can I somehow manage my X10 to work on the frequency Mobilicity is providing. Following are the lines from wikipedia.

"Mobilicity uses the UMTS IV frequency band, also known as AWS, to provide UMTS (with HSPA) service.[11] Using this band, user equipment transmits at 1710–1755 MHz, and receives at 2110–2155 MHz. This is the same frequency as Wind Mobile and Videotron in Canada and T-Mobile USA. Like WIND, they do not have a GSM network."

"The Xperia X10i uses GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 and UMTS/HSPA 900/1700/2100. The Xperia X10a uses GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 and UMTS/HSPA 800/850/1900/2100."

Please be easy on me as I am a newbie :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gavriel18:
Sorry buddy, that'd hard coded and can't be modified. U need a factory x10i

Btw welcome to xda. :-)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] programmerboy:
Thats a shame...I guess I will have to rely on the carrier to change the frequency :)

And thanks for welcome :) How come you have X10i version since you are from Canada as well.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gavriel18:
Its flashed with 2.1 :p
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockjock007:
the carrier is not going to change the frequency for you.. As it looks Videotron and Mobli will survive Wind took a hard hit just today. The CRTC and Industry Canada are getting pressure to reopen the ownership debate. If that falls though Rogers will add data to chat-r and seal the fate of Wind. Then you can simply switch over and be fine.

ok, I will wait for a month or so. I guess North American handsets always had problems. I remember I took couple of handsets to South Asia 5 years ago and they werent working there, but their handsets worked in North America.

Btw, my current plan is 35+tax and it includes.

Unlimited Incoming & Outgoing

Unlimited Text (Global and domestic included)

Unlimited Long Distance for North America

Unlimited Data

Caller ID, Call waiting, Voicemail, Call Forward, 3 way calling

I doubt Rogers or its subsidaries can offer such a plan.

Btw, I am a webdeveloper who wants to get into mobile development scence as well. Any guidance will be appreciated as I am a complete newbie when it comes to mobile development.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FeRcHuLeS:
It is funny to tell but my x10a is not working the right way

The 3G working bands are as the service menu says:

umts_bc1, umts_bc4, umts_bc8

instead of

umts_bc1, umts_bc2, umts_bc5, umts_bc6

So I can't use the 3G anymore that's because in my country none operator uses the bands that my phone has, It seems my x10a phone uses x10i bands now.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunja99:
Hi all... I'm ready to flash/root a new ROM, want to get rid of my operators bits and bobs. Have been reading round here and I 'think' I know what I'm doing, but please could someone answer my questions below.

I will start of by saying I will hope to play with a few ROMs but might start with a root HTC Sense 2.2 (currently on 2.1).

Software and Phone details:

Model: HTC Desire A8181

Firmware: 2.1-update1

Baseband: 32.42.00.32U_4.09.00.08

Kernel: 2.6.29.54b7033a

Operator: Orange UK.

HBOOT: 0.83.0001

MICROP-031d

RADIO: 4.09.00.08

I will backup by bits with MyBackup Pro (have already used a few times to hard reset, and move to a new phone), and also AppBrain for the apps. All seem to work nicely.

Here are my questions:

1. Do I need a gold card? I am on Orange UK with their 2.1 ROM?

1a. If yes, should I get a card specifically this purpose, or sharing my current one OK?

2. I plan to use Unrevoked (latest version), so hope this doesn't need a gold card.

3. Other than running Apps2SD, what else does partitioning for ext3 do? (I will do this as I plan to use apps2SD!)

3a. Would 1GB ext3 for App2SD/7GB (FAT32) for the main data storage be OK?

3b. Does just copying the SD Card information in windows, and then back to the FAT32 partition surfice for backing up app data (Angry bird saved games, etc, etc)?

4. I know I need the latest radio, etc for the 2.2 Froyo, and this comes with the standard rooted sense ROM, so will probably use that.

5. Does NANDROID just backup the ROM and the NAND information? Can I store the current orange ROM and put it back later? I've never seen an orange ROM available, although a 2.2 update has recently been released.

I guess my main question revolve around the use of the Gold Card, and the NANDROID questions. Please let me know, so I can join this fun world of ROMs for this great device!

Martin

PS. I know these questions are asked around a lot, and there is a lot of information. But have been reading for quite a while now, and a couple are still a little confusing for me!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] church473:
I'll try some of your questions.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
You do not need a goldcard, to root with unrevoked. The ext partition is just for apps2sd. You can back up the fat partition of your sd card, by just copying the files with windows, but must use somthing like a linux live cd to back up the ext, a nandroid copies all parts of your rom, (system, boot, ext, data, android secure, ext) and can restore it exactly like it was when you made the backup :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunja99:
Thanks for these pointers guys. Not sure on the AmonRU thing you bring up though church. apps2sd seems like it should just work on boot up.Will use ext3 (as 4 not supported yet, and FAT32 to the windows one obviously ;))

3b. Does just copying the SD Card information in windows, and then back to the FAT32 partition surfice for backing up app data (Angry bird saved games, etc, etc)? not sure - use mybackupro i guess to be safe - I didn't realise that My Backup Pro backed up your data on your storage card? Just calls, contacts, etc, etc?

I have a linux box lying round here, plus Ubuntu on VMWare, so partitioning with gparted will be fine for me.

I will probably do the flashing, etc with windows as want the SDK on there, and I dont have monitors on my linux box, and don't fancy flashing via VMWare :)

AndroHero: If Nandroid makes this backup from the the ROM as it stands I guess that includes the root, so can't really revert exactly back to the Orange setup defaults.

So the process is Backup phone data with MyBackup Pro, root with a new recovery put on there (clockwork I presume if using unrevoked), NANDROID backup, and then flash the ROM and Radio to my hearts content! Oh I am excited about time too had the phone since May!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] church473:
Well, AmonRu and Clockwork are pretty much the same expect for the additional partition creating funtions in AmonRu. At least thats what I gathered from what I have read.

Yes, backup using mybackuppro, root, nandroid and flash away. I did a titanium backup and a mybackup pro backup and mybackup pro seemed to do what I wanted - reinstall selected or all apps + data + all other data such as contacts and sms and mms. (prefer that to the titanium pro backup app)

Here is a question you could answer - gparted - is that a software for ubuntu? I have ubuntu set up as dual boot. If i can use that to partition the sd card then I dont have to mess around with AmonRu.

What roms are you thinking of trying?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunja99:
Church, cheers for that again. Yes GParted is a linux partitioning program and probably in ubuntu: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/

I will copy all my data from my card to windows (just one big FAT32 atm), partition and format the card in linux 1/7GB split I guess will do nicely! Maybe less, like more music on there! Then copy the bits I copied off back using windows again.

Fingers crossed that'll work. I won't be making a gold card then! Nice to hear another UK Orange user having done this, as heard some bad stuff about it a while back, things have moved on I guess! Always too scared and not enuf time to play, but enufs enufs, and hate the weather bug never updating on Sense!

I will prolly start with a pre-rooted standard Sense HTC one (with included radio!), and mebbe play with LeeDroid and some of the others! TH prolly won't get round to it!

Any settings issues with Orange BTW? APN, etc, etc? I wanna remove all the orange rubbish from my phone ASAP!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] church473:
Thanks for the gparted information. Will look when im home. I felt the same as u. Frustrated and one day just rooted and changed rom. I only started flashing roms. On Sunday. I struggled with defrost and used open desire for a bit...wanted to try senseless. I'm using miui now...fantastic rom...very different! I did use a app caalled apn backup and restore so might be worth doing that.
[Legend General] Bambiookoo:
Hi Guys

Long time reader of these forums and have used the guides provided here numerous times. This is my first time post and it's a bit of a noob question but after looking around the forums, I haven't been able to provide a concrete answer.

I remember reading about Facebook integration with Android 2.0+ but could someone clarify how vanilla android interacts with Facebook? I am a huge fan of HTC Sense being able to pull down my friends info into my contacts. Also is there a way by which I can back up all my apps and contacts so that when I've flashed a new ROM I can just restore the data?

Again I apologise for the basic questions, but I couldn't seem to find any solid answer through my searches and I'm itching to put 2.2 on my legend.

Much appreciated :)
[Legend General] cdfs:
Linking Facebook and Google-Contacts works in 2.* as far as the names are the same. Ihaven't found a function like in sense where you can directly point to a specific FB-contact and link it to a google or phone-contact as you want. Regarding your second question, your contacts will be saved @google if you use a googleaccount, for backing up your settings and programs go with TitaniumBackup but your handset has to be rooted for this.
[Legend General] Bambiookoo:
Thanks ^_^ I realised what I'd asked about the contacts only after I'd posted it >.< but all the same thanks for the info :)
[Legend General] grandioso:
Just btw, which fb app are you using (this goes to everyone) ?

Not a single one I tried so far was good enough.

I have the official fb for android but it doesn't display message whole threads when they are too long and when i click on a notification, it opens up in the browser.

Then i tried fb browser, but that one can't open youtube vids. It tries to open them itself instead of opening them in the yt app, but I'm unable to click on the play button.

the rest is either a copy of these 2, or comletely useless.

Sent from my Legend
[Legend General] Bambiookoo:
I just stick with the default android one...the lesser of the evils out there. But I agree with you in that the apps aren't as good as they could be. Who knows, maybe Facebook will announce some android related news at their mobile event today :confused:
[Legend General] cdfs:
I'm using the official one. There is an update, just installed it today. There is now finaly places and when clicking in the notification, no more webbrowser with touch.facebook.com is opened.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hselvaggi:
Hello everybody, this is my first post. This may seem a little basic or not I'm not sure but I need your help.

I want to upgrade my cellphone software from android 2.1 to android 2.2 but there are several problems around there. I can't get my cellphone connected to Kies so I can't check for an official android 2.2 firmware.

I have been searching other ways to do it and I find here and in other sites Odin to install the new firmware.

I have 2 questions about this.

Does anybody know a way to make kies work? (it just said connecting but it never ends, it happen after installing an update for kies from samsung)

Why there are diferent ROMs for europa, america, etc ? I mean what will happen if I install a ROM that was build for europa in my cellphone. Does anybody know a ROM (2.2) that works fine for my cellphone in Uruguay (America latina).

Thanks in advance.

Hi there, i'm from Uruguay too and want to upgrade to Gingerbread. The model here is 9000T and comes with 2.1 upgrade 1. Theres no upgrade via Kies.

I've tried the spoofing method, but i still get a "This device cannot be upgraded" (but in spanish :)).

I got too many stuff installed, so i'm trying not to use the ODIN method, but for now it's the only option left.

Any recomendation?

Hi,

I have a few questions about Windows 7 phone and I note that he writes by the translator because I'm Polish.

So here we go:

1. Is WP 7 can be installed just like WM 6.5? If so, I have a link to the rom?

2. Is my Toshiba G810 with a 400 MHz processor with WM 6.5 gave advice to the WP7?

3. Is the resolution is good on my phone?

Please write correctly, because the translator does not catch errors.

[Fascinate Android Development] mackeydesigns:
Can we get a stickied thread in either this forum or the themes and apps forum for ROM/THEME makers that can have access to MODs and Confirmed working apps?

As things are now starting to pick up with development, more and more mods and apps are coming out. The problem is, if you like one MOD, and you flash it, but like another MOD that customizes something else, that later mod often overwrites it.

It would be nice to have a list of all the MODs, Apps, themes, etc. Where the other users can go in there and develop a ROM or Theme and include each of the mods they wish.

Of course, pending approvals from the makers of the Mods and Apps.

Example: I really like the Remix Theme, but I prefer the Evo Font, but if I install the Evo font zip after I installed the remix theme, it removes that theme. Make sense?

[General Questions and Answers] abcac:
Is there a way to increase GPS accuracy of a phone for one specific location? Ie broadcasting your own GPS signal.
[General Questions and Answers] Ryan79:
short answer - no ;)

Long answer, incase you want reasoning....

our cells use two methods for give us our "GPS" service:

Cell Tower Positioning (not true GPS) & Global Positioning GEO-Sync Satellites (true GPS)

both methods are similar in that it takes the position of SEVERAL signals to triangulate your position.... the more signals it picks up, the more accurate your location.

While it is possible to provide a false reading, which is done to test and service GPS systems (this is done through a diagnostic port that feeds dummy raster data to the device) you CAN NOT BROADCAST a (potentially false) GPS signal.... doing such without an FCC license and licensed equipment is not only against the law, but can be very dangerous to anything else that might happen upon the signal... Crashing planes, cars, trains, and other GPS dependant systems come to mind...

For an interesting read regarding all this... see http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26992456/
[General Questions and Answers] Ryan79:
As an FYI, There are Earth-Based stations that GPS can use to assist in positioning.... BUT it takes about 3 years to get the FCC approval, and about $15 million in equipment for a MODEST station.... if your still interested... I even know of a business that would be willing to do the setup-install ;-p
[General Questions and Answers] abcac:
I continued searching, and even the false gps is still quite expensive (thousands).

There is some hope for the future, InvisiTrack, though I suspect there are people who would say they are close to a Time Masheen.

However then I stumbled on, gps repeaters. Not that I could find a price or legality (they are aimed at businesses and have no US distributer). This seems like the solution, but need FCC approval in the US. Canada might be fine.

*For links search google for the terms, being a new user sucks.
[General Questions and Answers] Ryan79:
:p

Sorry... wish there was a better answer, but with SO MANY governments and systems utilizing GPS Positioning... MANY of which are very dependant on the service.... it's easy to see why it's very regulated & protected.

Depending on your device, try a different Radio ROM... or maybe try pointing the software you're using to the specific COM & Baud of the GPS, instead of having the OS be the go-between... sometimes that will boost the performance.

For example... i've got the HD2, and from the HTC GPS tool I found that the GPS is on COM4 with a Baud of 57600. When I pointed Google Maps & Bing to the specific COM/Baud I saw an increase in the number of sats it picked up... and the location was more accurate.

Also... there are apps like QuickGPS which will periodicly download the GPS sat. locations.... allowing the device to pickup the sats quicker.
[General Questions and Answers] abcac:
Ive started looking for a way that does not involve GPS, but using other frequencies to determine location.

One method seems to be placing bluetooth devices throughout the location and using those to determine a location. Currently looking into feasibility.
