I keep getting the new VZW OTA update message on my Droid Incredible running Skyrider 3.3.3. I dont want to update but its keeps asking me. I am starting to get pissed off. I look online and saw something about renaming the otacert.zip and I did to otacert.bak but I am still getting that damn update message. Please help
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ztrek7:
Second that.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NickkxNekro:
Yeah, I just now got notified of a new update. Is this Gingerbread?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcollierdavis:
Unfortunately, no.

<sarcasm>

But, you do get the really cool Verizon App Store!

</sarcasm>

I'd be surprised to see Gingerbread before the end of March 2011.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merlin66676:
I don't guarantee this will work but it did for me. I was on Uncommon Sense and got the message to update. I clicked yes, it counted down to 0 to reboot and then never rebooted. I manually rebooted and when I got back to UI the notice didn't come up again, and I haven't seen any new software installed either.

Hope that helps
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weehappypixie:
Ever since I flashed my phone with the official HTC update (3.14.405.2) my flash on the camera will not come on when I select it in either flash or auto mode. It comes on when I take a picture though.

Before I flashed, if I selected flash on the LED would light so the camera could see and then when I pressed the shutter button it would go brighter and take the photo but I cant get this to work now.

Battery is fully charged and I have tried soft rebooting.

Please can someone assist.

Thanks,

John
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
yep, that started happening a few rom updates ago. its a "feature"

my workaround is to turn on "torchbutton" and then start the camera. pain in the rear.

Hi guys, im new to smartphone, how can i convert files from .rar to .apk?

if this question has been asked before just send me the link, i did tried to search and i did not find similar request.

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BluechipJ:
A "rar" file is a compressed archive, like a ZIP file.

www.rarlabs.com to download the program.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carsamovva:
I open it with winrar and i cannot find any .apk file on it, i only see some meta-inf folder and .dex .xml and .arsc file.

any advice from experts?

thanks

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xarchitect:
i do it this way !! u can either do it thru any file managers thru ur phone ( which is always better) or thru ur system.

just change the .rar /.zip to .apk

[Droid Incredible General] TheDroidDoes:
I was thinking about rooting my incredible and by skimming the forums i see that an update is preventing a few from re rooting or rooting in general but my actual question is when u guys are saying "new" update are you meaning the update that i received a day or so ago with the vcast app store or whatever it is included in the 17mb file...is this the update u guys are talking about or is it like a software update that i must not have recieved yet? Thx!
[Droid Incredible General] kekspernikai:
The latest OTA (with VCast Apps, etc) is not working with Unrevoked/ClockworkMod. I don't know if you could still root manually. Hopefully someone else will chime in. I am rooted with Unrevoked and the last OTA did not work for me. I don't think I want it enough to go back and flash the stock recovery to get it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmsmeltzer2000:
Hey guys, I have a Hardware version 0003, with the new camera, I have it rooted and have tried several custom ROMs and kernals. From what I understand from what I've been told the kernel is responsible for the hardware drivers and overclocking abilitys. I need some help finding a Kernel that supports overclocking and also supports my new camera drivers. I've found that the HTC kernels support the camera but none of them support overclocking!!!! I need some help please!!! :confused: Right now I'm running Azrael v2.41 ROM with the included HTC #10 kernel.

Another off topic question, when I try to wipe the Divek cache, nothing happens. Is this normal? When I wipe user data and regular cache, scripts come on my screen and gives me the process.....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Samzebian:
if you have hardware 003 you shouldn't have to worry about camera drivers, you still have the older camera.

It's only if you have hardware 004 that you need to worry about your cam

Also, if you use clockworkmod there is a known issue with wiping cache, idk if it's related to dalvic cache but I get the same thing when I wipe it, no scripts. Try Amon Ra recovery for a working dalvic cache cleaner
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cubfan99:
What new camera? Is it better?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonetec:
i have 0004, none of the custom kernals will work with the camera, i just get a blank screen
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twin001:
Wrong. I have an 003 with the new camera. My camera will not work with any of the developed kernels....only the 2.6.32.15 #17 kernel. Mine has a late Oct build date. I received it when my launch day EVO was broken by the sprint repair center.

OP, just wait for HTC to release the kernal so the developers can work their magic on it. This kernel is fast enough for everyday use as is.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Samzebian:
How do you check build date? my bad, I was under the assumption that only 004 had the new cameras
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerdog:
If the phone came with Build 3.30 then it has the new camera hardware. That is some v3 and all v4.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteelH:
Just the stock kernel with the latest OTA. HERE

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peekeesh:
to the OP, i have the same hardware version as yours and i'm running netarchy 4.2.1 CFS more agressive. it works quite well. camera works too with no issues, so far.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmsmeltzer2000:
My build is 3.30.651.2, with the new camera. I've tried net's 4.2.1 more aggr. with no luck. Runs, but when I launch camera, black screen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqukyo:
I have rev 003 and my camera doesn't play nice with custom kernels either... not a deal breaker but it'd be nice to be able to OC... :P
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JCorona:
Yeah what new camera? Is it any better than the 003 build?

I just got this evo might just get the 004 build and return this one.

Anyone that had both builds notice any difference on battery life?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datajosh:
There likely won't be any custom kernels that support the new camera until HTC releases the source code for the 3.30 update and they still haven't released the source for the 3.29 update so it might be a while :mad:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqukyo:
Dooooh!!! Thanks for the clarification though.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanglifemike:
Yup, just bought my fiance a Evo and it is hardware 003 but came loaded with the 3.30 software. Haven't even rooted hers yet because I keep hearing of a lot of the new ones bricking...

Swyped from my supercharged Evo using XDA App
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ausch30:
This is incorrect. The build date is printed on the inside of the battery cover, just above and to the left of the opening for the kick stand. It's printed in black and kind of hard to see. The date on the HBOOT menu, I believe, is when that version was finalized. My Hboot menu says 4/30/2010 while my battery cover says 6/22/2010
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twin001:
The new camera is not any better or worse from what I can tell. As far as I know HTC added another supplier for one reason or another.

Some 003 hardware phones come with the 3.29 software, others with the 3.30. It's the 3.30 series that doesn't play nice with the camera's when flashing custom kernels.

yes, in hboot it shows the build date....or what I am assuming is the build date (don't know what else it could be), mine is Oct 14 2010.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmsmeltzer2000:
Guess I'll just have to wait fior HTC to release then....:o

Yeah I asked this. There aren't. I'm on 1.2 stock and I really like that option, puzzle especially. I don't think there are seperate mods for all of them just the one with the volume and on/off slider. I could be wrong. Let me know, if so I might flash 2.2 what about the power menu?

[Galaxy Tab General] tw1nz:
Hello.

*update*

after install jm6 on my tab there was a "Horizontal calibration"

install jm6 go setting -> display settings -> horizontal calibration.

Works perfect for me. Now i can play alot of doodle jump :D

-------------------

My G Sensor on my Tab is really bad..

and i can't play games like Doodle jump..

How can i fix this?

- Maybe with Terninal Emulator?

I talk with Samsung, and they just say that i shall send it to service.. :(

Sorry for poor english.
[Galaxy Tab General] yoyodemomo:
Hi

I have exaclty same problem, sensor are badly calibrated.

Can t play doodle jump... (I know, life is difficult)

Any idea to calibrate it?

Thank and regards

[Galaxy Tab General] hartyshow:
Hi,

Try Google Sky in landscape position ;-)

Poor or bad calibration !

[Galaxy Tab General] vs2:
There is a sensor self test - dialpad *#0*#
[Galaxy Tab General] nighteye1973:

Calibration would help....

Anyone any idea, someone knows how Samsung would repair this, via Software or do they have to change ´some hardware?!

BR

Peter
[Galaxy Tab General] terminatorhk:
My tab also has the g-sensor problem. I tried two tab and both of them has different degree of G-sensor problem, I think the G-sensor problem caused by samsung's inaccurated calibration. I would also want to know the way to calibrate the sensor by myself, anyone can help?
[Galaxy Tab General] Tiamath99:
This is the first thing I noticed when I buyed the tab. The gsensor is off, it often changes to landscape or portrait when only a little inclination is given.
[Galaxy Tab General] vs2:
Yeah I just download that free 'level bubble' app.

Pitch off by 2 degrees

Tilt off by 4 degrees

try full hardware reset, if that does not help send it to repair it.

Tomorrow ill have the chance to talk to a technical guy.

Keep u update.

[Galaxy Tab General] nighteye1973:
Means if u dont want to do unofficial Firmware update, not to loose ur warranty, there is no solution.

Anyhow good info, means no hardware defect.

:mad:

Peter
[Galaxy Tab General] Tiamath99:
You can calibrate it with 3d compass apply in the market. It has a calibration option that should work fine.

P.d Samsung service has to be amongst the worst in the world. Will they ever solve anything?
[Galaxy Tab General] mcp2009:
Hey which developer is 3d compass by?

Sent from my SGH-T849
[Galaxy Tab General] vs2:
Its probably to calibrate the compass (magnetic North)

I use spirit level plus (by Androidika) which has calibration but only within the app itself which means you place the tab on a level surface and hit the calibration button and it 'zeros' everything out. I doubt it calibrates the internal sensors.
[Galaxy Tab General] nighteye1973:
Tried both, but calibration only works inside the app.

Try to get any statement from t-mobile our Samsung on monday

If someone has a solution.... :)

Br

Peter
[Galaxy Tab General] nighteye1973:
Ok,

finaly T Mobile sent me mail.

Software Update to come, no but no idea when...

In the meantime use "official" Firmware from Samsung and flash it (even if not offered via Kies).

Anyone can tell me what is the latest "official" firmware for European device?

Got already feedback from other user, that with a flashed ??6? version there is a botton to calibrate..

thx

i've done a gold card and flashed my phone with a official 3.14 leo rom, havent got hspl anymore, android works fine but i am unable to flash a cooked rom, tried usb and gold card but both ways stop at 0%, does anyone know whats going on? thx

spl 3.03........

(WWE) 3.14.405.2

Radio: 2.15.50.14

Manila: 2.5

the batery life improved without hspl
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
hspl doesn't work on spl3 and goldcard is for official ROMs.

you must downgrade to a 1.x rom (as normal if it is your correct stock rom, goldcard if its any other stock rom)

this will downgrade your spl and let you flash hspl.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chucknorrys:
thanks, think i'm going to keep spl3, my phone has never been working so fine, i was just trying to find a way to use a cooked rom with spl3. was using hspl for all this time and battery run out in 12 hrs.. now, my hd2 is running android mdeejay froyo revolution all the time, no freezes, good data connection..

Hi, I have bought the HD7 from O2 DE and in the hubs is Telmap Navigator, which says, that its free for O2 DE customers.

I think I have heard, that the Telmap only includes german Maps.
[HD7 General] homer.web:
And? I think, that maps could be bought.
[HD7 General] homer.web:
But I have a feeling, that the application will not arrive until the MS update, because this one could be the one which would deserve multitasking... :D

And by the way, I think, that the OS already has multitasking, but has only list of allowed apps which can run in this mode. Otherwise it would not synchronize emails on background or play the music in background.
[HD7 General] ceesheim:
is there some more info on the telmap navigator ?
[HD7 General] ceesheim:
hounsell made a file browser and I was playing with it

guess what I found on hour ROM , jup "TelmapNavigatorFinal.xap"
[HD7 General] homer.web:
Do not understand. What exactly are you saying? ;)
[HD7 General] ceesheim:
that there is some kind of install file on hour phone (.xap is the same as .cab on wm6.5)

I think that telmap is on hour phone and that we get a update (automatic) from marketplace that will activate it .

my problem is that for now I can't see the file size :(
[HD7 General] homer.web:
This is what I am expecting that will happen when the full version will be available. And also it is the reason why I haven't uninstall it.
[HD7 General] homer.web:
It looks that the navigation is already out, but still not available as an upgrade for the german O2 customers.

Hey guys,

Upgraded to JI6 via ODIN, a while back from JI7 that I got over the air. Anyways, now waiting official froyo now from sammy. The rare time I need a gps came the other day. Apparently my phone no longer locks any satellites. Haven't played with the LBSTestMode Settings but shouldn't the gps at least be usable with the default settings? What programs do you guys use to workout and test the gps. Google maps doesn't even use my gps when its on. What should I try or should I downgrade to JH7 and call samsung?
[Captivate General] n311.dunkle:
I'm not very savvy with my phone yet but I found a couple tricks to make my gps work better. I downloaded an app off the market called GPS Status and toolbox and changed the settings to update gps assistance every time I open the app. It sometimes takes a minute but does better than it used to.

Also, how long are you waiting? Just curious. Another trick you may use is something I found off the forums. Take off your battery cover. Seriously. It helped me get a signal quicker and stronger. I have a phone case that keeps my battery in pretty well without the cover, so I don't have my cover on half the time.

These are both really annoying issues, hardware and software, but I haven't given up yet.let me know if this helps you or if you find something that works better.

It's the best performance I've ever seen! on Cogv2.4.1 it never get a lock, so I believe that maybe the problem of that Vibrant rom.
[Captivate General] nh5:
Ive been usig gps status, i left my phone outside with a clear sky view for about 15 minutes and gps status never even finds a satellite let alone a fix on it
[Captivate General] nh5:
updated to Cognition today. It actually finds satellites after a few minutes now, still can't lock any. It was pretty cloudy today but that shouldn't have affected it much.
[Captivate General] n311.dunkle:
Is it GPS Status from EclipSim? Try going to settings - gps & sensors - auto download AGPS data, and set it to update if older than one hour or six hours... And seriously try taking off the metal battery cover. If only as an experiment for my sake. I want to know if it's just my phone. Other than that, be patient. The first fix of the day always takes the longest. And GPS Status has a help and release note section for more info. Take two and call me in the morning.

and was wondering how hard it would be to port this to our Nexus? like is this hardware or just a software issue? It even can convert 2D pictures to 3D which seems like software at work.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragonstalker:
Think this would be more of a hardware design. The screen would have to be 3D screen. Just guessing don't quote me.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] header2k:
It's impossible - Glassless 3d needs a special Display that can display two pictures, while one of them is only seen with the left eye, and the other one only with the right.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
Yea it uses the same screen technology that the Nintendo 3DS has where the screen is capable of displaying 2 images at the same time. It looks gimicky and half-assed IMO.

The whole 3D market, which is awesome, needs to come out with a standard model. Any early adopter is going to be screwed over. They already have glasses-less models hanging over the head of those who spent thousands investing in the technology.

While this 3D phone is cool, it is a novelty.

hey guys.

i am looking for an option to have my wifi turned on and off automatically. normally it should be off to save the battery but when i start an app like opera/youtube wifi should automatically turn on until the device goes to standby oder the app is closed..

on my last diamond 2 rom there was such an option available in the sense connection manager. and i just loved the option cause i never had to worry about my wifistat. it was always perfect. unfortunately my actual rom does not contain this option.

a perfect solution for me would be a cab that adds this option to my sense commmanger.

so if someone has an idea how to fix this isue maybe by a cab file or a registry change please let me know.

btw. i am using energy rom with maxsense.

thanks
