Why does my phone not like the links in the OP for the ROM?

Ah well... Hey, any word form Koush yet on ROM Manager? Anything we can help with to get that up faster?
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Dont know, might be because they're dropbox? meh. As far as ROM Manager, JT1134 helped me with forking the manifest and making changes, then doing a pull request on github last night, so that'll make it easier for Koush to load me up, should just have to accept my changes. I've been watching it all day.
[Fascinate Android Development] Sithben24:
Sounds good. Yeah, I looked for other calendars but not too many decent ones. Will be a lot nicer with rom manager and the mesmerize contacts worked for me. Excited to test the battery life.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Installed .0.6 over .0.5.

Threw Email.apk in /system/app and rebooted to an Email.apk FC.

Started Email from the app drawer and set up my exchange account.

It will not sync. Getting the "will be back shortly" sync error.

Just reflashed with a data/cache wipe. Will let you know if issue persists.

If there is any specific log info you need, tell me where to find it and I will post it.

Edit:

Flashed through ROM Manager, wiping Data/Cache. No problems during install. On first boot, set up my google account and downloaded root explorer. Using RE, navigated to the folder with my apps in it (Browser, email, contacts, Deskclock, Gallery3d...) and copied them all (Multi-select) to /system/apps.

Rebooted.

No FC this time on boot, so I set up my corporate account. No issues there.

Still not syncing. It is not retrieving email and is giving the error in "settings - accounts" of "sync is currently experiencing problems. it will be back shortly."

Any ideas? I have a stock ROM sitting here that I can pull apks from is you have any ideas which might be needed here. Let me know and I'll be more than happy to test it out for ya. (I'm leaving .0.6 on right now if you need any help testing fixes and such.)

Still the fastest damn ROM out there. (...and who needs work email anyway, right?) ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Thanks for the update, I was about to ask you to try wiping data. what type of email account are you using? i pushed the email.apk from my google docs folder to /system/app/ and set up a pop3 corporate email account, and it's recieving fine. Is this an exchange server, or IMAP? if so it may require some files that regular pop3 doesnt. please let me know.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Exchange, sorry. Thought I had mentioned that.

Apparently, thinking of doing something and actually doing it...are two entirely different things. :D
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
haha, turns out you did, i just dont read so good =(

did you have exchange syncing set up and working on a previous build? if so which one, and i will compare the files in them and suggest one. unfortunatly i don't have an exchange account to test myself so i'll have to rely on you to figure out what works...
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
No problem. It worked flawlessly on both 0.4.1 and 0.5. More than happy to help with this ROM. Heck this should help others get some dependencies sorted out as well. That can't hurt.
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
can u please add more spesific changelog? what u get rid off from the 0.5?

im running the 0.5 now and running very fine...
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
changes between version 0.5 and 0.6 is that I removed the following system files:

BluetoothTestMode.apk

CameraFirmware.apk

InputEventApp.apk

Keytracer.apk

lcdtest.apk

MediaUploader.apk

MusicService.apk

NetworkLocation.apk

PhoneCrashNotifier.apk

PhoneErrService.apk

PhoneInfo.apk

SecurityProvider.apk

serviceModeApp.apk

PhoenixPath - I'd suggest you try adding back:

InputEventApp.apk

Keytracer.apk

NetworkLocation.apk

PhoneCrashNotifier.apk

PhoneErrService.apk

PhoneInfo.apk

SecurityProvider.apk

serviceModeApp.apk

and if it works, and if you don't mind a little legwork try renaming them with root explorer one at a time, then reboot and see if sync still works. if one or more of them being renamed causes it to stop working please let me know so i can create an exchange compatibility addon for the final product. thanks.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
I'll do this tonight. Oh, I will probably keep NetworkLocation.apk in there when done (I believe this assists in GPS "Places" type apps and location-based searches in Teh Google...).

Should be able to narrow it down to the culprits tonight based on the above. Thanks a lot, man. :D
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
thanks for your help, and I may add the networklocation back as well, just have to wait till i'm driving home to test navigation and see if it's affected.
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
flash it right away...

*oh no its 4am already here :|
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
4am wow. I remember those nights where i'd look up at the clock and it was hours later than i thought. but now I work at 6am so those times always happen at like 11 now :)
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
ive done flashing, me adding back all the apk u mention above... no FC after reboot. Main program running fine... (camera, talk, google sign in).

I get rid swype and launcherpro. I add twlauncher from vibrant (alphabetic order).

And i use jt kernel stable no vodoo.

Now im going to sleep... ive got to work at 9. Ill report back later.
[Fascinate Android Development] chrisp304:
FYI, I had to add networklocation.apk back in for GPS to work in version 6. Other than that it's working great. Love the concept.
[Fascinate Android Development] chrisp304:
Voice synthesis on Google Navigation doesn't work for me. Is it just me or do I need to add something back in? Thanks.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
SecurityProvider.apk is the culprit.

The highly amusing bit is that it is apparently only required *once*.

I added everything back in and then renamed them one at a time, boot in between each one (it was really saddening watching the boot animation get further and further along each boot..).

Had 'em all renamed...and it still worked. Deleted them all. Still worked. Wiped and reflashed and then added them back in one by one... that one did it.

Wiped and reflashed and added back in *only* that one. Worked.

Just for grins, I deleted it again...and it still works.

My only guess is that it must be required for the initial security check/log on, and unneeded thereafter (though possibly required if password changes or some such...)

So there ya go. Hope that helps. Exchange compatibility requires SecurityProvider.apk. :D (At least during setup. Perhaps that could be an option in ROM manager..."Exchange initial login" or some such...)
[Fascinate Android Development] Bigredcat:
Great Rom! When I loaded version 0.6 I was having some force close issues, but just fixed the permissions and so far so good.

The minimalist idea of adding only what you need or want is perfect.
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
report sir...

everything seems works great... nothing FC. And i read in your new thread about version 1, u mention about the different is u added back lcdtest.apk for the screen to turn off. I didnt added it back, but i my screen still works fine.
[Fascinate Android Development] n4m347yp3:
Man im such a newbie.

So after remembering how to find oden .....because this sexy a$$ 1.6 kernal with my old jt rom was money in the bank for 3 weeks. Then you have to dangle this striped rom in front of me.

Now running blackhole .6 and I have 236mb free. Freaking pimpin. Brokedown and supported 2.99 for launcherPro.

Ill wait till the 11th to try your 1.0 version. Its crappy weather out for golfing so I wont need my gps programs so ill wait to see if froyo comes out.

Sent from my Fasinatingly quick backholed 1.6 device so I could retire my s10 device. Netbooks are so slow....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jaehood232003:
I purchased a jailbroken AT&T Tilt 2 online but Im using T Mobile service and I was told that I wouldn't be able to access the T Mobile 3g Network with this device. Could someone verify that this true or if not can someone give me some tips on how to set it up on my device.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iamterence:
Its true, because I have a Tilt 2 unlocked to T-Mobile as well. Is there a way to get 3G speeds, I don't know. But honestly, I've never really noticed a difference. But then again, I do stay away from data heavy sites like Youtube and whatnot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
Hmm, interesting question. The main issue is whether the phone has the right bands to connect to the 3G network in question. Its a hardware issue, and either the phone has the right bands built into the chipset or it doesn't. There is no way to change this with software or by changing settings.

T-Mob uses 1700 and 2100 MHz bands, where ATT uses 850 and 1900 MHz bands. HOWEVER, the ATT branded Tilt 2 also has the 2100 MHz band for international use. If your T-Mob service area is on the 2100 MHz bands, its possible (if you area is on 1700 MHz, its not going to work no matter what). In theory, it SHOULD work. I've made many trips to Japan, which uses 2100 MHZ for both voice and data, and my Tilt 2 (and old Tilt before it) has always worked flawlessly on their networks.

But whether it really works or not, I have no idea. Searching around the net yields some posts on other forums asking the same exact question, with conflicting answers (perhaps somebody on here can enlighten?). My gut says, its either its going to work or its not, it shouldn't take any additional setup. Have you tried it yet?

But in short, it was a mistake to buy the ATT branded version. You should have bought the T-Mob branded Touch Pro 2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
Oh, and wrong subforum, BTW. This has nothing to do with ROM development. This should be in the Touch Pro 2, Tilt 2 General forum. But don't cross post there, the mods will probably move this thread over there for you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
The 2100 MHz band you're referring to is different on both companies' devices. For T-Mobile, 2100MHz is the upload frequency. The worldphone AT&T 2100MHz band is a download frequency. 3G requires 2 frequencies to operate in that manner.

The 2100MHz frequency is accompanied by the 1900MHz frequency for uploads. The AT&T Tilt2 has this frequency set to allow both.

As for Japan, I didn't know they were on the 2100MHz band. I've only every seen a couple of companies on 850, 1500, or 1700 MHz. Where were you that you used 2100MHz or which company? I just like to keep up on where the bands are useful when I make trips to Asia.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
Ahh, that's right, I think I did read somewhere, that the 1700/2100 MHz bands are used by T-Mob as download/upload. Not like ATT, where which of the 850,1900 MHz band is used for 3G depends on the geographic location/market.

That means the OP is SOL on getting 3G on the Tilt2, right? He would need BOTH the 1700 and 2100 MHz bands on his phone?

Japan uses 2100 MHz exclusively, standardized nationwide, as far as I know. Same with South Korea (although ATT lists that one carrier in S. Korea also uses CDMA 1800, not sure what the deal with that is).

If the 2100 MHz band on the ATT Tilt 2 is just for download, wouldn't this mean that my phone would not be able to connect to the data network in Japan?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Exactly right. It's a hardware problem, not software as some people think. I seem to answer this question at least once a week here. lol The radio chip is different for each model of the Rhodium. That's one of the differences between the several versions.

It depends on what the network is set up as. 3G worldwide requires two bands to operate because of the bandwidth. GPRS and EDGE only require one. If this 2100 MHz frequency is one of the later, then it will work just fine. If this is a 3G band, then it is VERY likely to be paired with the 1900MHz frequency range. That's on GSM, anyway. I'm not 100% sure what CDMA frequencies are their.
[Fascinate Android Development] kissqt7:
I have a fascinate now, I had an eris then an incredible. Anyway, I rooted my eris and my incredible and flashed many roms with much luck. This phone is a little difficult. I can root easily but installing is difficult. I can't install anything from the sd card. I have tried it two different ways in Rom manager (direct install and booting into recovery) If i hold the vol keys and power, unless i apply the update, it wont go to clockwork. It is actually on the stock recovery. Anyway, I just can't figure out how to install anything on this phone from the sd card. I get to the install screen, it finds and opens the packages, but the freezes on the install. I'm terribly annoyed as it is with this phone. I used google all the time, now I'm using a quick search app. ADW launcher the drawer disappears randomly, and I just don't like launcher. So anyway, I can't install anything from sd, so therefore I can't get google search working or setcpu, and cant flash a diff ROM. I must be doing something wrong. Please help!!!
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
ClockWorks on the Fascinate does not overwrite the stock recovery.

In order to get into CWM, you must run update.zip *every* time you want to get into CWM. This is not likely to change any time soon.

Once in CWM, the back key is the "select" key and the volume up/down are the up/down keys.

First thing is first: i you have rooted, boot into stock recovery, apply update.zip to get into CWM recovery and backup your device.

Then play. :)
[Fascinate Android Development] kissqt7:
yeah i get that.. after the backup and even wipe data and cache it gets stuck at the install part. I have titanium and always nand but when I install the zip from the sd card it finds the package and opens the package, but then always freezes on the installing the package part. That's where I'm having issues
[Fascinate Android Development] ludionis:
Having come from the Eris myself, I know your pain. I will suggest, if you attempt to install anything, and I mean **anything** related to voodoo, not only should you back up/nandroid first, but you should probably go ahead and familiarize yourself with Odin and recovery steps. Also, you cannot be patient enough, sometimes takes up to 10 min + for installs/disables. I am in my 2nd 2-day recovery process from removing Voodoo, and I frankly suggest avoiding it altogether.

In Rom Manager (clockwork), did you click on FLash ClockworkMod Recovery and select the Fascinate? If so, and still hanging, I would recommend uninstalling/reinstalling clockwork as a next step. Best of luck!

Hello, I hope this is the right place to post.

First of all, I'm a newbiee with the Desire I got it on the 1st of November and I didn't have much free time these days.

So I'm in need of a keyboard with this symbols ''|'' it's not "l''.The original keyboard doesn't have it and I need it to log in to an account.It's located right next to the '' button and I can write it by pressing shift and the button. I'm not sure if everyones keyboard is like this.

I know that it's a silly problem, but it's important for me.

So if you can help me I would be sooo grateful.

Went swimming last and forgot my phone was in my pocket, it was only underwater for a minute till I pulled it out. I dried dried it off the best I could and even used a hair dryer but I think the screen is ruined. When I power it on it vibrates and the lights flash on like normal just the screen is blank.

Am I screwed?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abowersq:
Yes. Don't try taking it to Verizon either. Time to get on eBay
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wyzzerdd:
at this point I screwed up and have to but a new phone.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abowersq:
What?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Threeball:
Here's a fix...

First, your battery is definitely done. But the phone is not. Take the phone apart. Don't get too crazy just separate the main screen piece from the backing and battery cover. Then, fill a sandwich baggie with dry rice and put all the pieces in with it. Let it be for about 24 hours (longer is better). Put it back together. You should be good to go (hopefully your new battery has arrived). If there is moisture left in the the screen, it'll look funny but it dried out for me after a couple more days and looked normal.

Obviously, no guarantees here, but this has worked for me...twice. It's not a perfect fix but it'll save you a few bucks.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wyzzerdd:

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xllxjustinxllx:
Best advice ever given on xda. Im an electronics repair guy for the army and whenever someone brings us a wet device we do exactly this. Take it apart as much as your skills allow and you are comfortable with, then leave it in rice for a couple days. After all this take some canned air and blow it out to make sure there isnt any dirt or particles in there and put it back together...

I have dropped my phone in water for 30 seconds or so and pulled the battery as fast as I could, then placed everything (taken as far apart as I could) on my radiator on top of a couple of pencils (to avoid direct contact) for a couple days and my phone has never shown any problems including battery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubber84:
Hi guys i used a guide from mobiletechworld in attempt to get 2.2 not knowing it got pulled. I can't show the link as a new member but it was the regedit trick to get kies to upgrade/unbrand branded phones.

Although i didn't get it 2.2 i got a good update and got rid of the horrid Orange branding that was causing lots of problems.

My only worry is now when Im on kies i get "this devices version cannot be updated" now, i have been all over Google but can't find a straight answer, Have i screwed myself? Will i be forbidden from the official froyo later this month? Some say I've just got the latest firmware and therefore cannot update my device and have nothing to worry about but Im not convinced by this. Surely it would say something like "you already have the latest software" has the regedit trick annoyed sammy so much i won't be allowed on the froyo train?

One thread said if you get the latest kies the message will be different but this hasn't worked for me.

Please offer some words of wisdom to this unworthy noob
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailerr:
Mine initially said that, then a product code hack for me a newer firmware (JM1) which then said "you have the latest version" or similar. Since then I have a different firmware again - not 2.2 - and it again tells me cannot be updated.

I'd not worry until the 2.2 is out for your region. Which is now probable XEE after the reg hack. Once its out in full force we will know for sure. At worst you will just need to use Odin and fix it manually, or pay Samsung some cash to flash it back. I know how you feel but really its just words for now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubber84:
Did you have to do a regedit hack to get the newer firmware? Doesn't doin wipe your phone? Thanks for the reply =)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubber84:
doesn't *odin wipe your phone??
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anap:
Can't you just use the Registry Hack again but put in an older 2.1 version to get the latest 2.1?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailerr:
not here, not sure why. And yes, phone wipes but I am used to installing OS's so it is of little concern.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubber84:
Well i think ill just get the same version if i reg hack again and i wouldn't know what to put in. I've heard that there Will be a New kies that Will have to be downloaded in order to get 2.2 which will probably be regedit hack proof.

Hey folks. Just bought a MyTouch 4G and I like many aspects about it. However I tried to go into recovery mode to see if it's possible and I can't even get that far.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnob:
how do i get out of recovery, besides battery pull
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperDave81:
vol up + power so you can see the text menu, then scroll (with vol buttons) to reboot and hit power
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wickednix:
If you don't want to pull the battery or disable fastboot. Hold power for the options to reboot. Select reboot when you get the wheel, hold vol down and you will go into the recovery/hboot. This is how I did it on my wife's mt4g/hd/whatever..

before replacing backup the default libwebcore.so in jpo so u can replace if anything goes wrong to do this use the root explorer system/lib/libwebcore.so
