[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OperationMove:
Hey hey, everybody! I've been running emotionless beast for a while since 1.5. I love it to death, don't get me wrong, but on an all jet black phone, IMO Nothing beats a darkstar port. So I figured wtf? Let's port one over. Problem there is I've been working 12's lately, and only get a little bit of computer time, if any during a day. Weekends, same thing :( . So I need to throw a request out there to any individual(s) that also would like to see this happen to help me out.

I did some custom themes on my cliq, but those were all through metamorph. So if someones willing to take the plunge and start on this project, I am more than willing to help them out on a few sections. My photoshop is ready and willing. Just need a hand and someone that can give me a stock-deodexed template to work off of. I figured if we end up doing this we should just make it for Froyo, since that is (hopefully) in the near future. It'd be kinda silly to work hard on a 2.1 theme just for it to phase out next month entirely.

Anyways... any volunteers? Concerns? Would you like to see this too? let me know. :D
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
Im working on porting my beast to froyo with the power options and everything. I got my framework-res.apk all done. I just need to modify the 3jar files. After I finish the port I was thinking of making a black and chrome theme with blue highlights. I already got my name picked out "Dark Beast". I'll gladly look into this port and add my own twist.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OperationMove:
Yeah that is just one variety of it, there have been many versions of darkstar released. That'd be awesome, mystery if you did decide to make a "Dark Beast" I'd be glad to be a part of it/help you out with it you decide you like Darkstar and want to make a hybrid/mod type thing go down.

The things I like about darkstar is : A. The rounded screen corners give the screen/phone a very blended/smooth look to a solid black phone. B. I also just think that Jet black/green look extremely sexy complementing one another. C. It just looks overall clean and nice.

The only thing I don't like about it is most of the notif. bar icons. All white and completely boring is not my thing. I'd like to do something with them, which would be no problem.

Anyone else have an opinion either way on this?

if ya listen to me , the way u buy ur vaio is this

> goto ebay.com (or co.uk)

> type in sony vaio

> hit "PC Laptops & Netbooks" on the side

> hit "buy it now" tab

> hit price highest first

> change "items on page" to 200

> goto a page that ur comfortable with the price range and start opening up tabs and when u found one with decent style , gpu and price , u know u got the best offer possible

(same way i buy my phones)

also it goes like this

desktop:

i7 > 4/6/8 core

i5 > 4 core

I remember when I shopped for my laptop, and I chose Dell's XPS-M1530 (15" display), man talking about regretting not getting XPS-M1330 (13" display) instead, my laptop currently sits by my TV hooked up via HDMI with BT keyboard and mouse, and when I need to move I am catching myself on the thought 13" laptop would've been just perfect, lighter, and would've cost me less money :p

But anyway, it is your call, and it is all depends on what you are going to use it for.

The user ncbenhk made a post a few days ago of games that run well on the gtablet.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9157714&postcount=1981

I am running the Cyanogen Firmware and I tried installing a few of these and I have had no success. I cant even get them to install, after I purchase them from the market it says installation failed and I wind up having to get a refund.

Has something changed on the Cyanogen build that make these games not install properly?
[Captivate General] bash_array:
DO NOT RUN Advance Task Killer period. It does nothing but cause problems for the phone on eclair. Google recognized this and added a task managment solution built into froyo that works much better and won't cause random BS. If you think you know how to run ATK then you probably don't so read up on exactly what it does. Just remember people, when you boot up the phone, it starts most of these services because they are essential to the phone operating properly... imagine that. Don't try to be smarter than the phone. You are not going to save battery by removing processes out of memory. Period. Let them run. If you wanna save alot of battery, turn your display off automatic and run at a lower brightness level and turn your 3G radio off when not using data. Its that simple.

As for the speaker problem, remove the back and battery off the phoen and with your trigger or fore finger aggressively tap 1 time on the speaker grill and your sound should work when you boot the phone up. This action could be described as thumping the grill with your finger. I know this is a caveman way to repair a phone and is closely related to the beavis and butthead "kicking method" but it works almost every time.

Hope this thread helps. Your comments are very welcomed. Tell me what you are thinking....
[Captivate General] Simba501:
Thanks for the info. I use ATK, but not in a harmful way (haven't experienced issues or random shutdowns). I have an extensive ignore list (of things that need to stay open) and security set to high, so system processes won't even show up, so it's impossible for me to kill them.
[Captivate General] bash_array:
BTW... Just to qualify myself a bit. I am samsung certified and I am running a Captivate on the Leaked froyo, rooted, sideloaded, overclocked to 1.2ghz, verizon market fingerprint build.prop mod, LCD density mod = 210, startup sound mod, battery percentage in task bar.
[Captivate General] evosky:
well thanks for the inside scoop. so we can expect a major OTA update around christmas for the US market?

i will be removing my ATK program today. I've also been using Captivate Keep Alive, which apparently opens up a ton of applications to keep your phone active and prevent it from entering that "comatose" state i think.
[Captivate General] JRd1st:
Thanks for the info!

Can you recommend another easy way, besides ATK, to shut down all of the unwanted AT&T programs that load during startup?
[Captivate General] skullvet:
Great info, thanks!
[Captivate General] chirs:
Hope you are right, but software issue is hard to explain my case. The first one I got had shut down 4 times within a hour(worst case, usually 2 or 3 times a day), and the replacement been used about 2 months, never had an unexpected shut down. Both of them are unroot, no side-loading, and never use ATK.
[Captivate General] jdsemler:
danalo1979, since you have the inside scoop, will there be any GPS improvements, or is it as good as it will ever get?

Root your phone, get root explorer, go to system>app> go to desired apk file that you want to disable and rename to.bak extension and the os wont recognize the program. Its reversable just rename back to apk. Reboot phone. Don't do this on anything that is required for the phone to run.
[Captivate General] koreancanuck:
So the random shutdown is only an issue for eclair roms? Kinda explains why I haven't had any shutdowns since flashing cognition.

Also, I find it kinda funny that an AT&T employee has his captivate sideloaded :D (no offense! Just wondering why AT&T would even want to block sideloading apk's..)

And the ETA for the OTA sounds very disappointing.... late Dec~late Feb...

Just had a shutdown, running Cognition 2.3b4. Have had other shutdowns while on Cognition.
[Captivate General] Sulphur4724:
I've been on 2.2 of some sort since it leaked. Mine has shutdown as often as 3 times in a day. from 100 to 50% battery charge. There is no ryme or reason that I can identify except: While running system panel; When you look at the graphs for the time period that a shutdown occurs I notice that the battery charge graph will suddenly drop like a rock, like 50% of what's left and then when i turn it on it initially reports the lower amount but by the time it boots it shows a "correct" representation of the battery charge. THAT is consistent for every shutdown. Sudden drop (50%ish) and it reports low on startup and jumps just the same.
[Captivate General] dhncali420:
Random shutdowns on Froyo but not Eclair

Well I'm on my second captivate, first one random shutdowns from day one.

I have gone months with no shutdown while running stock Eclair. The day I flashed the leaked Froyo or Cog I recieve random shuts within a few hours. I tried flashing back to stock/master clear/ battery stats all with the same results

For me with stock Eclair no random shutdowns

with Leaked Froyo or Cog I get random shutdown within a few hours

Frustrating
[Captivate General] jswclw:
So are you able to restore to a point that does not produce shutdowns? If so, what method of restore?
[Captivate General] dhncali420:
Flash Stock J6 from here:

If I had one shutdown running stock 2.1 I would return it
[Captivate General] StevenMP:
Dear OP, first off, I believe what who you say you are and what you wrote. Thank you for being open and honest. I am bone stock ATT 1010 v.004 phone build with a 09-17-2010 battery. When phone is completely stock it does not shutdown overnight. As soon as I add an APP, I get the overnight shutdown regardless of battery condition. I see that many apps say they need access the power keep alive function of the OS. Now I am not running homebrew apps or any mods as mentioned. I tried basics like Kindle or eBay or Chase Bank. I am 7 days into my phone and need it to stay on, so I can use the alarm etc. What do you recommend I do? Just keep returning it so I stay inside my 30-day window? Jump to a WM Samsung? iPhone4?

Can you also PUSH PUSH PUSH ATT to get this corrected. Samsung and ATT did not publicly acknowledge the problem on the three times I called, but only said if I returned the phone and got a new one, I would NOT have the problem again. Why is that? What do they know?

Thanks!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] laurensb01:
Hi,

After a lot of tweeking, installing and long hours, I finally managed to get Android 3.2 (Froyo Stone) to work and be able to reboot :D. Ofcourse, I am very happy, but there is only one thing I am wondering..

Every time I download an app or take a picture or basically do anything on the phone, the phone generates a new folder on the root of the SD Card and not directly in the Android folder. This is not a problem because I can just place them in the android folder whenever I need to reboot only and everything is back too normal acceptttt.. Most games and apps. They are still visible on the SD Card, but I can not play them anymore because I moved them and have to re-download and re-install them every time I need to reboot. And when I leave the folder outside of the SD Card, I can't boot Android because the Android folder needs to be the only one on the root of the SD Card. So here's my question:

Is there a way to automatically save all download/installs to the Android, insted of the Root of the SD Card?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
Real simple answer to this.... stop moving the files! I've seen it on the forums where people say that the Android folder must be the only folder on your SD card, but that is just plain wrong.

Just let it do what it does and don't worry about the miriad of new folders that are created.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] vista1984:
i don't think "android" must be the only folder in the root. just don't touch any system files.

in fact my understanding is android in sd card is kind of convenience. as long as you backup the file, you can do any experiments you want: moving file to anywhere easily.

much easier than nandroid backup :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] ff2co4:
Good day, so ive search high and low for a windows mobile 6.1 rom for the moto q (first release) that was released with winmo 5, ive come up dry so ive decided to cook my own rom, i found a few great sources on cooking roms, i have a 6.1 rom, but its for a htc phone, so not sure if i can use that or not. now what gave me hope though is i found on youtube a moto q (first release) that is running winmo 6.1 so i know its possible, but this was a GSM phone and im with sprint so that wouldnt in entirely work for me. so anyways, does anyone know if the rom i have if i can modify it to work with my moto q and what needs to be modified? once im finish i will release the phone on this site and 2 other sites.

Thanks and good day!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biochemgod:
Please hear me out, as I know that this is not a typical dev forum question: As far as I can tell, I have an issue that seems to be affecting a good number of users. I was hoping that this thread might help someone in the Dev community figure out the problem.

I have a Canadian I9000M running Darkys ROM with NO lagfix and all tweaks but misc enabled. It has been running for 2 weeks without issue. I have multiple CWM backups on the internal SD card.

OK, here is what happened. This morning my phone was off and unresponsive, after removing and replacing the battery, the phone would boot up but the internal SD card would not mount in Android, giving the message "internal SD card damaged".

Tried to flash a whole bunch of backups, ROMs, kernals, etc. incl various Eclair and Froyo. Nothing will successfully boot except for my backup of Darky`s Froyo, and of course the internal SD is not available - as well as all my apps and settings. I was only able to boot the phone again when I flashed the Super Optimized Kernal and used CWM to restore my last backup.

I can`t mount the SD in any way - from within Android or CWM.

Here is the interesting part. CWM can still see my backups and restore them! So the internal SD is still functional to some degree, right?

Question: Can I move the CWM backups off the internal SD from within recovery mode? I tried playing with adb but couldn`t figure it out. I would like to avoid trying to reformat the internal SD before I can do this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

***

OK, so it looks like because the SD card was getting flaky, adb was not behaving consistently. I was able to connect to the phone in recovery mode and pull the entire contents of the internal SD using adb pull.

Now, anyone have any ideas to get my SD card back in Android??? Reflashing ROMs with PIT doesn't seem to do it. I will try again...

It has app2sd, wifi tether working, wifi working, flash in browser, swype, live wallpaper, Caps and FN lights working, genius button working and I believe that's about it... :D so does anyone know if it exists? Or know of a rom that is really close?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PcFish:
Chiefz OTA 135 whatever. It's 2.1, but it has all you ask for.

You'll have to partition your SD with EXT, but yeah. Most all 2.1 roms work perfectly.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
The latest cyanogen nightly has all of that too. There's no flash for our phones though no matter what ROM you use.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PcFish:
Genius only works on stock as far as I could tell. 2.1 has Flash lite. Bluetooth also works perfectly.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
Yeah genius only work on stock. On cm6.1 it just opens a voice search. But the cpas/fn lights work in 6.1, they didn't in 6.0. CR_mod is probably the rom you're looking for. Its basically stock rom with the ota update and with root and wifi tether. I used it for a bit, was pretty fast, but sms was glitching for me, it was sending up to like 15 copies of each message, so I hopped back onto cyanogenmod.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejoker25000:
Arayray has patched the genius app to work on 2.2 though the actual genius button is still mapped to search but I think that is fixable
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marshmallovv:
Yea the only thing wrong with the CR_Mod though is that for some reason my wifi and wireless tether don't work and from what I've read they are supposed to work. Would installing a new kernel fix it? If so where do I get it from and how do I install it? Would it be just like a zip file/rom? Oh and it doesn't have apps2sd but I can partition my sd card once I get that other stuff working.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Worked fine for me, maybe you should try the newest version 2.0.5 pre13 the one that comes with CR_MOD is 2.0.2. There's also an app that was released that allows you to custom map the genius button (mines set for maps:D) Also, 2.0.5 pre13 works for CyanogenMod 6.1.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PcFish:
What app are you talking about? The one that maps different functions to the Genius button.
