well I go into settings> SD phone & storage> Unmount SD card, is something supposed to happen or am I supposed to do something else? After I tap that nothing happens and the "format SD card" option isnt highlighted meaning its not even an option to choose.

oh wow that worked man!! Thank you so much for your help, you just saved me a bunch of frustration, now it shows up as a disk drive on my computer and the sd card is read/write compatible. Can't thank you enough man, do you happen to know of a reason as to why this would happen? I mustve set it to be like that somehow I just can't imagine how I did that. Also is there an app or way to back up all your files and apps on your phone and sd card and transfer them to your computer just in case something like this happens again at least I'll have backups so I wont loose everything.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HiddenKnight:
Glad i could hel you. Ita no problem that you cant thank me enough, just as long as we solvee tue prob. You Could have dropped your phone and it knocked the SD card around or it just didn't read it correctly on boot. As far as I know, I don't know of any apps to backup SD card contents and phone data. I would just make a nandroid backup and store on PC. So if you make any vital errors, u can restore using your recovery agent.

Hi All,

What is the software that cause this error to happen? Is it the Backup and Restore software from Sony Ericsson?

If you are using the B&R software from SE, there is a mini text underneath the selection which states that Contacts Synced using Sync services will not be backed up. In other words, Google, Sony Ericsson Sync and etc will not be backed up.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] senthilanandhpv:
I restored my Contacts successfully. Here what I done

1) Reset to factory default

2) After the phone restarts I did not do any setup. I skipped all including email and contact setup.

3) Left the phone idle for 30 mins so things could settle.

4) Went to Backup and Restore and selected only Contacts and call log (No messaging or other Stuff)

5) Done. After 99% it says it done but my contacts got restored.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thran8:

i have learned my lesson with roms. there is alot of roms that's got gr8 apps but i want to use the apps from diferent roms. how do i do that and can someone please help me?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Jackos:
Three methods I would say.

a) You extract the custom rom and try to find the program files/libraries/registry entries what-so-ever by yourself.

b) You search in google/xda forum for the program.

c) You post a thread in with you specify the program you need (by putting a screenshot for example) and you wait until someone provides you with a cab or stupid answer like "use search", "google doesn't bite", "this was answered milion times" or even starts insult you :)

Hello people,

I am not sure if that is the appropriate section of the forums, so please excuse me if I am posted in the wrong one.

Does anyone of you know if there is an Android widget that could be set up to pull a random line from a txt file stored, say, on the SD card? I'm looking for something of the kind so that I could have random quotes on my home screen - but quotes of my liking.

If there is none, would it be difficult to create and is there anyone willing to take up the task?

I don't understand how this is difficult... The Youtube button is available on many editors, not just XDA.

Youtube tag = the video ID.

e.g. for yours: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TM4_mbud0Cg

So click on the Youtube button and put in TM4_mbud0Cg.

It's not rocket surgery and it saves people from having to browse away from XDA. :p

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjamscad:
Hi I am new to the forum. I have an issue. I just bought the droid incredible on Tuesday. Today it started being weird. I believe it has the slcd screen. I was rooted, and used ninja morph to remove some bloat. It was great until I rebooted and I had lost the bloat and the HTC Sense and Gmail stuff didn’t work. So I thought I could just re-flash and get everything back no problem right; wrong. I tried several ROMs and nothing would flash. I then copied all the \system\app stuff from the clockwork mod update file. So I had everything back where it needs to be and nothing showed up in the app drawer. Titanium backup and rom manager have been no help. I then installed and loaded a 140MB PB1IMG.zip that was supposed to be an official leak. So I put it on my SD card, hboot, and great its working. Bad, It turned off not reboot. It turned off, black screen, nothing. If I remove the battery and charger then put the battery in and the charger I get the orange light. If I hold vol up and power I get the QUALCOMM 3 vibrating thing. IF I hold vol down and power nothing. If I just push the power it vibrates makes a clicking sound must have a drive inside and vibrates one more time followed by more clicking. Still black and nothing after that. I am leaving it on the charger tonight. If there is a shred of hope please share.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arache0n:
I did basically the same thing with my SLCD Incredible, with the same results.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busterbrown77:
Hmm....

Well, the only thing i can think of is maybe the slcd incredibles have different hardware, as some roms do not run, like cm6. My guess is you flashed a PB31IMG for a amoled inc, and as such, caused your problem. Of course, it could also be a number of other things, like a bad zip of some kind, but in the end, if you cannot access recovery / hboot, something went very wrong. Hopefully you didnt mod it too much, and i would try getting it replaced. That sounds like a brick to me... however, try removing the battery and letting it sit for a bit, and if that works, immediately flash a ruu in hboot, as that resets the phone completely, aside from s-off which vzw techs dont look at. Good luck.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arache0n:
Pretty much.

It seems we have a functional phone underneath a non-functional display. adb devices shows the phone in recovery when we turn it on. If only I could figure out how to flash a new kernel to it without being able to see what's going on...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arache0n:
So a question then... when in HBOOT, will RUU recognize the phone?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busterbrown77:
Possibly.. But even if, you need to make sure its an RUU for the slcd incredible, otherwise youll be back to square one. I find it odd that a different screen can cause these kinds of issues... Especially nothing in hboot. But theoretically, if the screen is just dead, you can use a microsd adapter to put a new pb31img on the sd, then boot into hboot, wait like 45 seconds to be safe, then hit the up arrow to start the update. then after like 5 min that hit up again. This should be enough for the phone to flash an RUU. but you need to get the timing right. I think its just best to replace it... As for the slcd issue, i think anyone with an SLCD Inc really should just stay put right now, as its becoming apparent that the 2 phones are different in some way, and things like this can happen... Hopefully Koush or one of the higher up devs can look into it..
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjamscad:
I am more than willing to try and fix this thing. Where can I get a good RUU file to put on it?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busterbrown77:
Well thats the thing... I simply don't know if a slcd run was released. I hopefully a dev will look into this... for all we know its as simple as pushing a file in recovery. You can try that with a regular ruu and see if that helps
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enomele:
Could try shipped roms. Even though its ran by different people I think its still legit.

But like mike said there may not be a ruu for slcd.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lllboredlll:
This really needs to be in Q&A not Development. All these questions do nothing but junk up this thread.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jobehonda:
I just fixed this for my buddys INC.

** Please note: Make SURE you have the correct drivers installed. I used the modified Android ones.

1.) Download the Android SDK, and then fire up a command shell in the Tools directory

2.) Boot the Incredible into Recovery:

* Pull battery, then put back in

* Hold Power and Vol Down for 5 seconds

* Wait 20 seconds

* Hit Vol Down once

* Hit Power

* Wait 20 seconds

3.) Check to make sure that ADB can see it by typing adb devices into the command shell you opened earlier

4.) Type adb reboot oem-78 into the command shell. I let the phone sit for a few minutes.

5.) Run the RUU from Shipped-Roms, located here: shipped-roms.com/download.php?category=android&model=Incredible&fil e=RUU_Incredible_C_Froyo_VERIZON_WWE_3.21.605.1_Ra dio_2.15.00.07.28_2k4k_NV_1.50_PRL58006_release_14 3351_signed.exe

Once the RUU finished running, my phone rebooted and my screen is alive!

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris.arney:
I was really hoping they'd come out with a car dock for the G2, similar to the N1. But they haven't. I know that the G2 doesn't have contacts along the side for this functionality, but I was thinking that the USB Micro's extra pin could be used to detect a dock. Does anyone know if there is an API call to read the pin or do an A/D on this pin or anything? I know this is how Motorola detected if their phones were connected to one of their chargers or not, so this isn't new or anything. Other manufacturers have done this also, but the hardware has to support it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kerbdog0:

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmstc:
Motorola uses a magnet sensor in the back of the phone to tell if it is docked. Whether the dock is car or home is based on the polarity of the magnet.

Has anyone else noticed this.......?

I guess I am one of the fortunate ones who have the GPS somewhat "working" and I tend to use it quite a bit... Normally, I just put the phone on my car mount, open up gps, navigate, boom......works good....most of the time..... However, I have noticed that charging my phone while running my Google Nav app causes HUGE accuracy problems...in fact, I cant use it at all. The app thinks I am on different streets, tries to recalculate route, thinks I jumped to another street, thinks I am going in the opposite direction I am heading, keeps thinking I am on the freeway when Im not, etc.

When I unplug the phone charger from the phone, it works ok again. Anyone else seen this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creepyncrawly:
Nope. Mine works the same whether its plugged in or not. I have noticed that the battery gets hot sometimes when I use GPS for a long time with the charger going.

ps. before using navigation i usually open lbstestmode, and run get position when it finds a lock, i press the home key to exit out of it but it allows it to keep running, by doing this i have around a 10 sec lock on time with 5 to 10 meter accuracy, even with tracking, if i don't it takes a while for google maps to find me and it usually has me pointing the wrong way
