Alright, I followed the directions from the "

[PROGRAM] Updated:One Click Root/UnRoot (Mac and PC)

" thread thoroughly(several times):

(couldn't find any answers in the thread about it)

So, I got all the drivers for my 64 bit computer and set my phone to usb debugging mode. I right-clicked the exe program and selected "run as administrator". Then the command prompt says now my phone is restarting to recovery mode; it does not do that. Does it mean that I need like an actually sd card so it can download the update.zip file into it or it should already do it to the internal drive.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
What type of use cord are you using? Is it the one that came with the phone? I can only connect with my MAC using a quality or original cord.

If his fails you can download olcf from the market to root your phone. There are other options in this app but I would just use it to root.

Probably should not be posted in development

Original cord and what is this olcf from the market?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lee1733:
Make sure you are plugging the USB cable into a USB port on the back of your computer. I have personally had it not work on the front USB ports and I've heard of it not working on USB hubs as well.

Otherwise, you don't need an external SD card, just the internal one.

Hello,

I race sports cars. I have a very unsophisticated legacy =, low volume windows 3.1 application of about 3 mb. It basically allows the user to program in software an engine management tweak and offload it, via serial cable (2 wires) to a rom on the engines computer.

I wonder how difficult it would be to decompile it an put it on an Android platform (or WM)

Regards, PK

BTW, I have several such programs, some universal, some with source code, probably a market (besides me). Racers ar pretty tech. hip.
[Trophy General] sergioalvarezmac:
Hi guys, I'm waiting for a brand new HTC Trophy that must came to my house in one week, more or less.

But I have a question, has the loud speaker a better quality and volume than the Nexus One?. The volume and quality of my N1 is, well, I should not say bad words in this forum, but you understand me, right?

And please, take your time with me, it's my first windows phone and I am more lost than John Locke in the fu****g island :D

Greetings from Spain!

Thanks in advance.
[Trophy General] winfiddler:
If you are meaning earpiece volume then it is fantastic. My old Diamond was appalling, but the Trophy is great. I can actually hear people now.

The loudspeaker for listening to music is ok. As good as the iPhone4, but you have to prop it up. Best bet is to place it on top of a cup (empty). Also use the sound enhancing app.

make sure to adjust the audio settings, goto the sound enhancer and select "dolby mobile". makes it sound heaps better.

Thanks for your replays guys. I think the next wednesday I can say goodbye to my Nexus and say hello to the Trophy.

Now I have to catch up in terms of ROMS and all that.

Thanks again for all.

Far far better than the N1, I've got also a N1 so I know what I'm talking about :)

Nothing special. Input your details into K9 and it takes care of the rest. Very easy. I use K9 for Gmail and prefer it over the Gmail app.

[Epic 4G General] nimaim:
Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about Hotmail and Exchange using K9, I still don't think there is a solution for it. Stock Email app works fine with these new Exchange settings for Hotmail but doesn't do HTML, so it's useless. If anyone knows of a way, please let me know. I'd love to have all my email accounts consolidated into one in K9. Didn't mean to hijack this thread btw, getting Gmail to work in K9 is as simple as inputting your email and password, K9 will autoconfigure it.
[Epic 4G General] LordLugard:
I've had nothing but problems trying to setup hotmail as exchange vs regular pop3 in any email client so I just don't bother.

I have hotmail setup as pop3 in K-9 and I'm fine with it.

Windows Phone 7 Sync Software

Sync contacts, calendar and tasks with Windows Phone 7

http://www.companionlink.com/windowsphone/

Sync your PC with Windows Phone 7 via any Google, Gmail, or Google Apps Premier account. CompanionLink installs on the PC and syncs calendar, contacts and tasks to your Google/Gmail account. Google then syncs with Windows Phone 7 devices using the Exchange ActiveSync protocol provided by their Google Sync service. Two-way sync is fully supported so changes made on the phone will sync back to the PC.

Currently, there is no support for notes/memos because Google does not support syncing the notes datatype. CompanionLink is evaluating alternative sync methods for Windows Phone 7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] runandgun:
Sync

Has anyone tried this? If it works...gotta have it!
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
So rather than sync directly with Windows Live and access in Outlook via the Hotmail Connecter for free you should sync your data to google for $40? Fantastic product, where do I sign up?
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
BTW how to you sync Tasks if they're absent on WP7?
[Windows Phone 7 General] chubnut:
Looks like it converts tasks on Outlook into non timed events on the calender. Note sure how priorities and due dates etc convert though
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Lol. Well, I can see the point if you use Google Apps for business reasons, but CompanionLink has always been a waste of money.

And overpriced at that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] runandgun:
Sync....yes $40!

The Outlook connector to sync to Hotmail is EXTREEMLY limited. In my normal Contacts folder I have about 5000 contacts. The calendar for the next 90 day includes almost 400 events. The Hotmail calendar hold enough events but does not SYNC the correct folder! I want to sync...NOT IMPORT. I think hotmail contacts are limited to a few hunderd.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Outlook allows you to Layer Calendars. The fact that it's going to the the Hotmail Calendar means little to nothing.

People layer calendars on a daily basis. You don't put Holidays and Birthdates on your work calendar, do you?

Putting your contacts on Hotmail is as simple as dragging and dropping them to the Hotmail Calendar Folder.

Hotmail has gone through many changes and supports most of the Outlook Fields. 99% of people will have no issue with just dragging them over. I had over 200 Contacts and they all went to Windows Live with no issue. I had more issues porting over to Google than to Windows Live using Outlook due to field name differences and missing fields in Google Contacts (a notorious weak point in the Google Services).

It does Sync. Just to the Hotmail Folder, the same way Exchange Data goes to its own file.

This prevents data from becoming too disorganized, like when you have several POP3 accounts dropping mail into the same PST/Mailbox file.

If you had an Exchange account set up in Outlook, I find it hard to believe you'd want your Windows Live Calendar going into your Exchange Calendar, Windos Live Mail going into your Exchange Mailbox, and Windows Live Contacts being jumbled in with you Exchange contacts... I'm sure you want that mail you sent to your brother calling your boss a dickwad to get archived on their corporate servers, etc.

I think a large part of this is people have some unrealistic expectations of how things should work, and having no clue how organized people actually organize their data.

Windows Live Connector works similarly to Exchange on Outlook. The only difference is you need a connector for it (at least for Outlook 2003/2007), because the functionality is not built into the application. I expect the next version of Outlook to have the connector built in as core functionality. To get similar functionality for Google Accounts, you'd need to pay for Google Apps premier edition (and even then, their Contacts/Calendar Sync sucks hardcore). No other system has as good integration with Outlook as Exchange and Windows Live. You people keep complaining about something so trivial, when the alternatives fall flat on their faces. Seriously.

Also, the premier client software for Windows Live is Essentials.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kahibbi:
I still don't like the whole idea of this 'cloud' thing for my Contacts and Calendar. I much prefer controlling the information that goes between my phone and my laptop ... I do NOT like the idea that it now has to go out to the 'cloud' somewhere with all my Contacts' information.

I just do not like it one bit! I want a direct link between phone and laptop ... even if I have to hardwire it to get the data updated.

Good for non-Microsoft PIM clients

Hi all

I think that the companion software comes into it's own if you have a non-Microsoft PIM/email client such as Lotus Notes, etc.

I tried it to get some data from my WM 6.5 device into my Googlemail account. That worked very well, but I probably wouldn't pay for it.

Cheers

[Windows Phone 7 General] Lifear:
it doenst resolve my sync problems on the phone itself. the phone will only sync with the main calendar at google. i need the others to. for syncing outlook to google i use gSyncIt. Its much cheaper and you have more control over the sync.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
wait, you have 5k contacts and 400 events in the next 90 days, yet you don't have an exchange acct???
[Windows Phone 7 General] greenbrd:
Don't you mean "Accessible from anywhere BY anyone?"

CompanionLink is the sole reason I gave up on WP7 and moved to Android. It syncs my Outlook contacts, calendar, tasks and notes via USB to my Droid2.

No thanks to posting my vacation plans, parents' address, business contacts, etc. to the cloud (MS, Google or other) for any hacker to find.

CompanionLink isn't cheap, and it isn't perfect - it's about as accurate as ActiveSync was - but at least it offers a basic compatibility with Outlook that Microsoft decided to abandon.

I am trying to use WP connector for mac but its seems to be working oneway from Phone to Mac.

I wonder if anyone knows how can i use it to sync music and photos from mac to phone ?
[HD7 General] prjkthack:
The following help file from Microsoft contains directions on how to do this:

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=203366&clcid=0x409 (PDF)
[HD7 General] Blueightytwo:
all you have to do is buy a pc
[HD7 General] V3RMILLION:
I did it earlier. I started up the Windows Phone 7 connector and it told me to connect my phone and I did. From there it works almost exactly like iTunes. It will sync any of the playlists you made in iTunes to the phone. Of course if you have no playlists in iTunes... then it might not work.
[HD7 General] vikramdhani:
Well i do have the playlists and it is not even syncing photos as well.
[HD7 General] Jeimygirl:
I want to know if there is a way that I can tranfer all my files from a MAC to my phone. I used to plug my HD2 in and it would pop right up like a folder on my desktop. WinPho7 wont do that. I can not download anythign on my work computer, and I use the phone's storage every single day. All I have on my work comp is iTunes and it doens't show up like the iPhone would. This is very disappointing...
[HD7 General] V3RMILLION:
Vikramdhani, it won't sync photos if you don't have iPhoto 9 or above. I don't have it and mine won't sync either. So you have to update your iPhoto or wait until Microsoft releases an updated version of the Windows Phone 7 connector (which I'm not even sure will fix the problem, I'm just assuming they'd make it compatible with older versions of iPhoto.)

Jeimygirl, it doesn't work like the HD2. You won't see it on your desktop on your Mac. It works kind of like the iPhone/iPod. It will only show up in the Windows Phone 7 connector program. It works similar to iTunes but it doesn't show up in iTunes. You have to use the Windows Phone 7 connector program in order to sync anything to the phone. Unless someone figures out and releases a workaround.
[HD7 General] Jeimygirl:
Thanks. i knew this is how it worked I had an iPhone before, and I can't download anything on the MAC, so I'm pretty SOL. It was my biggest drawback to upgrading to the HD7. Second would be multitasking. But I figured the rest was worth it. i was tired of soft resetting my HD2 2-3 times daily. I'm just hoping the developers come out with an app that can turn the phone into a mass media storage like the HD2 or G1. I used those as my "iPod" in my car thought my stereo too.

Not sure if that's even possible on the HD7 but I would GLADLY pay for this app, and that says a lot for me as I normally never buy apps.
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
i have to salute u man... as i thought Microsoft was making the iOS connector just to poke fun at apple....

so there are people in this world who use Mac and Windows phone.....

sorry mate but could not help....

the only apple i use is my ipods...
[HD7 General] vikramdhani:
I hope you know that it is not a IOS connector but Mac OS connector :) seems like it was a hardware or software issue on the phone i had, guess what i returned it back to TMobile
[HD7 General] lstrike:
I got the connector working no problem but of course it took forever to drop a couple thousand tracks the first time. My problem is it seems to try and update all 2k tracks when I plug it in attempting to snag a couple of new albums. Is there anyway to make it only capture the new albums and not try and run the stupid slow update all sequence?

Driving me nuts I had it running for almost 45 minutes and it was only 75% complete...FOR 2 fraggin albums I wanted to add...Man I honestly really like the new OS and phone but Microsoft didn't do themselves any favors with this dumb sync system. Let me drag and drop what I want, KISS!!!

(or I am doing it wrong and I am not very bright...which I KNOW is the case more often then not! :))
[Vibrant Android Development] untermensch:
there are a number of problems with the recovery in the just leaked

Froyo ROM.

1. signature checking

2. passing API version 3 to the updater binary

3. forced wipe after installing an update.zip

the attached zip has a 3e recovery modified to disable signature checking

report API version 2 for backwards compatibility with clockwork mod recovery

and disable the forced wipe after installing any update.

I don't know of any reason to run this version over 2e but it

might be useful to someone.

Installing:

1. turn on USB debugging

2. plug into computer

3. run script and follow on screen prompts.

how do you use this?

ok i wil bite. how do you use/flash this it cw is not accesible?
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
rename to update.zip i assume...... i mean thats how u flash everythign thats zip file if u cant get into clockwork.....
[Vibrant Android Development] untermensch:
you cant flash this you will have to put the files on the internal sdcard

then use root explorer or adb to move the files into place, recovery goes to

/system/bin and the keys to /efs, update.zip is the clockwork recovery and

stays on the sdcard.

when you boot into recovery and choose re-install packages clockwork will

be able to do its thing.

I do like the sig verification but it's a PITA and may disable it, this is a temp

fix until I can finish hacking on recovery there is very little clues as to where

the functions are so it may be a few days.

forgot to mention to you also have to remount /system rw

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:

Im suprised more people havent commented. I downloaded the first Stock version of JK2 and i tether so redownloading is not really what i wanted to do...plus i have a Mac so Id have to borrow my buddys pc again...anyway

This workedvgreat! For thise who might need it:

Place all files on the root of SD internal memory card

Copy keys file to /efs

Copy recovery file to /system/bin/ (backup old on first)

Leave all other files on SD internal

Reboot into stock recovery and select Reinstall Packages

itll do its thing and reboot into stock recovery again. From there youre set...just select reinstall packages each time.

Youre a life saver...thank you sir!

Frustrations with i9000m Gingerbread and 3e recovery

I was

hoping

I could get the 3e working under gingerbread on an i9000m (Bell/Canada):

Firmware 2.3.3

Baseband: I9000ugkg3

build: Gingerbread.gkg3

I'm rooted with superoneclick, have busybox, root explorer - generally all the things a neatly rooted Android should, BUT since I have the old 3e recovery, I can't use Clockwork Recovery (getting the failed signature errors).

Ok. SO I wonder if I can replace the recovery file with the one in this thread, but here's the issue: Some script keeps the copying the original recovery files back into place!

I've got a 311kB recovery (from the 3e_recovery_installer) copied to the /system/bin directory, _and_ at root (where I found it after a full system search).

Do a reboot - and they revert back! Funny enough, even the "recovery_old" versions I backed up up the originals to also disappear! I don't even touch the recovery bootloader - just a simple reboot reverts the recovery file back to the 400.73kb version and makes the backup disappear - frustrating!

I really don't want to flush this install (want to nandroid it first) before trying to go back to CM7 (and fix my radio so 850Mhz works in remote areas of Alberta), but this is silly!

There is a "recovery.rc" file in root, but inspecting it doesn't seem to show any indication of an auto file-reset function. Any ideas how I can circumvent this?

Thx,

Dave
