[Droid X General] Bierce22:
Sweet so the set up is still the same I'm using clockwork on my hero and I don't have to flash it every time lol and in your opinion what's the best Rom yall have and what is the most stable overclock setting
[Droid X General] raziel36:
Overclocking is trial and error. My first Droid X only was stable up to 1.25Ghz, but replaced due to dead pixel. My new one is very stable at 1.45Ghz with ultra low voltage settings. For me, the best ROM out is Fission 2.1... I didn't like Moto Blur so I love the vanilla Android feel that I had on my Droid 1. It's mostly about personal tastes, honestly.
[Droid X General] Steven58AF:
You have to have dx bootstrapper and rom mgr. I use rom mgr almost exclusively, as it is very, very easy. I advise getting it.
[Droid X General] raziel36:
Rom Manager is completely optional. For some, it's simplicity makes it a must have, but I almost never use it anymore. It wasn't available when I first got my D1, so I'm more comfortable with the manual processes. I will also use a terminal emulator to root a phone, instead of the 1-click options. Just posting to clarify that RM is nice, but not necessary.
[Droid X General] zonbal33:
I need to root my DX that I just got yesterday, came 2.2 pre-installed. I've been accustomed to my rooted D1 for so long and I know that the DX root process is different so I need some help.

I would like to just do a "1 click root method" if possible, but I can use ADB/SDK if that is the best way to root the DX, I got some familiarity with ADB. Also, I'm confused on this bootstrap stuff, etc.

In a nutshell, I want to be able to root my DX, use Clockwork Recovery (for backups, flashing roms, etc.), use Rom Manger, be able to unistall system apps, etc.

Thanks guys :)

[Droid X General] Bierce22:
Yea dude I rooted my brothers dx this morning search the market for z4root its made for the droids on 2.2 it took it two tries but he got it oh yea its a free app good luck its one click
[Droid X General] Bierce22:
And for bootstrap u have to flash it every time u go into the recovery but its the same as clockworkmod but its nota perminate recovery screen that's how they bypass the fuse that will brick your dx
[Droid X General] RaptorMD:
Ok, so because we have rooted, and are running as Superuser with Clockworkmod, each time we turn on or reboot it automatically comes up in the Recovery mod that we just reboot from so we don't brick our DX's? If that is correct then it explains a lot and it would also be something that I haven't seen written out. If it isn't correct can you explain why after rooting and installing Superuser and Bootstrap or Clockwork Recovery Mod when I turned on my D2G or rebooted it I ended up in the Recovery mode?

Thanks.
[Droid X General] rcnaimee826:
Here is my question. I have used the Rom Manager and currently running Rubix. I have tried to flash to another Rom to try to get the feel of them and Rubix keeps popping up. Do I need to delete it from my X to get the other ROM to load in?
[Droid X General] gio2005:
I would always recommend an SBF in between roms. This removes any traces of the previous rom.
[Droid X General] BRUTAL BROCK:
That's a bit overboard, isn't it? I've rooted and flashed a ton of phones, friends, family, Co workers. Only on some circumstances I had to sbf, but from my own doing.

Simple wipe data, cache within bootstrap clockwork recovery, does the trick. Follow the roms instructions. No need to sbf everytime.
[Captivate General] n7slc:
I'm using the latest Cognition ROM, v2.3b6 and I've noticed since v2.3b2 that every SMS sent or received is now in the call log. I never saw this in the stock ROM or Cog v2.2b7.

It's really annoying when I want to scroll down to a recent number only to find that I've got to scroll through dozens of SMS messages depending on how many I've sent/received after a call to/from the number I am trying to locate.

Anyway to turn this off?
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
I've seen it in every 2.2 version I have tried. Unfortunately I know of no way to turn this off.

Can only hope when the source code drops it:

A) Will have an option to turn off

B) That Developers find a way to add that functionality
[Captivate General] mboush:
There is a way to customize the call log:

Phone->Logs->Menu->View by

Only problem is you cant have it show all calls (has to be either missed, dialed or received).
[Captivate General] penguin6:
You can also stop that from happening by using Titanium Backup and "freezing" the stock messaging app. Doing so will stop all the logs from coming in and going out, but you also have to use a third-party messaging app. The only downside I've found to this so far, is the loss of MMS capability, but that could be an issue only with how Handcent is set up on my phone. Has anyone else tried this and still been able to use MMS (receive and send)?
[Droid 2 General] djsat03:
I rooted my D2G and installed clockwork recovery on it thru rom manger and was trying to install a theme from available droid 2 themes. It goes past the motorola logo and when It gets to the eye it keeps boot looping the eye. Does anybody know how I can fix this, i know it was quite stupid what i did since there isn't any roms or themes available for D2G yet? I also forgot to make an a backup. The theme i was trying was NexTheme Final Fission 2.12.
[Droid 2 General] jeessuussjason:
try to sbf if you are unable to do that than you might have to take it in. this has happened to me and i had to take it to verizon to get it replaced.
[Droid 2 General] JDunc:
That theme is made for a Droid2 with Fission 2.2.1. ROM and wont work on any other ROM or phone.
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
Idk if the clockwork in rom manager will work correctly. I've only ever used koush's bootstrap bc the kernel is locked and regular clockwork doesn't work on the locked kernel. I have a D2 but the principle should be the same bc yours is an updated version of mine with a locked kernel as well.
[Droid 2 General] djsat03:
Yea i just called verizon and played dumb. Since i got the phone on yesterday and i didn't even activated it. I told them i got my phone and i can't get it to boot to activate it. jeessuussjason: when u took your in did they say anything about being rooted anything? Like how can they check? i installed clockwork recovery on my but seems like the clockwork recovery got erased now too, it doesn't boot into to it, just regular stock recovery.

Learned lesson back up!back up! everything!
[Droid 2 General] jeessuussjason:
nope i played dumb too and said i tried to update it and got a boot loop you're within the 30 days so they should replace it no questions asked they will try to plug it into their computers but it obviously won't do anything
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
Is there a way to put the browser that is in TnT into the Zpad 1106 build? I really like the Zpad stuff but not the browser so much.

Not real big on Dolphin, Firefox, or Skyfire. The TnT browser works well for me.

Would it be just pulling the apk from TnT and putting it in Zpad? Or is it harder?

Thanks.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Probably not - it seems to be linked heavily into the TnT framework.

One suggestion is to try and add the TnT browser and the tnt framework jar, that might work. But Ive never tested it.
[G Tablet General] rothnic:
Try the xscope browser. Best one in my opinion. The menu key toggles fullscreen on and off.
[G Tablet General] amathophobia:
If you are looking for full screen opera mini has it too. The multitouch is wonky but serviceable.
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
Thanks Rothnic. I had used it before on my phone and then forgot about it. I just purchased it from the market. I really like it.
[HTC Excalibur] seedpws:
Is there anyway to lock the volume on the ear speaker? I am tired of it going up and down during a call.

Also when playing videos is there a way to turn down the volume?

Got the T-mobile dash. Thanks
[HTC Excalibur] Mr. Clown:
You can disable the JogBar...just go to your phone settings and you will find it.

This question has been answered numerous times, please take a time to search and read.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VolcanicSkunk:
I have been having trouble with the lock sounds for my screen. Whenever I lock and unlock it used to click. But for some reason it now only clicks whenever I have a headset plugged in to the 3.5mm jack. I have no idea what the hell could have caused this. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'm going to try a nandroid and restore when I get home from work tonight. But I would like not to have to take the time to do this. Thanks guys! :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sccpmusc26:
Your system volume might be turned down. When you have the dialpad pulled up, do you hear beeps when you press the keys? Do you have "clicks" when you press on icons, the app drawer, ect? If not, download an app from the market called cvolume and check your system volume.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VolcanicSkunk:
Thank you very much man! :D That was the issue. I don't know how I got it turned down in the first place. :( Thanks again though. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] hughyb:
I have read a few threads on a few build quality issues but not mention this, if I have missed them then mod please feel free to delete.

Anyone else noticed this, its not a big deal but I noticed that when typing on the physical keyboard I could feel even hear a slight creak as I typed away. I worked out that this was being caused by the battery twisting and creeping its way slowly out of position. I have sorted this with a small ball of bluetack, no more creak.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tbalden:
Heh..no noises here except the click of the keys pressed :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] hughyb:
That's what I am enjoying now but before it was really getting annoying.
[G2 and Desire Z General] snudel:
Nothing here. Keyboard sounds are just the expected ones.
[G2 and Desire Z General] AMoosa:
No creaking here. So far..

I came over from windows mobile and am some what of an android noob. After you flash a ROM is there anyway to restore apps so they dont lose data, I dont want to start over on amgry birds.

Engage slippyfist!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akijikan:
I use MyBackupPro, there's also Titanium Backup. Both are paid applications in the market.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] decalex:
Using Clockwork Recovery (check development forums), and depending on the flashing instructions, I usually:

save the rom to Sdcard/

boot into clockwork

backup and restore > backup (makes a full backup)

Wipe Data, (clear cache if they tell you to),

apply zip (rom) from SD

then back to Backup and Restore > advanced > select your backup > restore Data only.

Then reboot, and you should be good to go with your saved Angry Birds game :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spf2722:
Mybackup pro worked like a charm.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnyardavid:
Mybackup works well but you on't want to backup and restore data if you frequently switch roms/kernels. So if it's just the apk you are trying to save then astro more than gets the job done.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddymikey1975:
I think he has the .apk and wants to keep his progress in the game withoout starting over after switching ROMs :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnyardavid:
Lol, that's what I get for not paying attention to the op.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dennistpm:
Titanium Backup Pro will restore your backup with one click. It has saved countless hours from switching ROMS all the time. It is well worth it to get the paid app because you can let it start restoring and walk away. The free app requires you to click "Yes" to restore each app, one at a time.

I also use the back up and restore feature of LauncherPro so I don't have to keep redoing my home screen setups.

Once you have these two apps in play you don't have to be shy about trying as many different ROMs as possible.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m0d:
But, devs and contributors keep saying,

Is APK Batch Installer, [ http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1531880 ], a better option ?

Or, in the end all data restoring is not a good idea if switching between android versions?

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] anthonysl318:
Hey Forums,

Im pretty new and i just recently visited the sprint store and checked out the new Samsung Epic 4g. Its pretty amazing and the UI Is amazing.

My question being is there anyway or anyone who could port a Samsung Galaxy S or the Epic .. or really any of the Samsung Phones ROM over to the CDMA Hero? If so it would be greatly appreciated.

- Anthony
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ahager88:
If all you want is the launcher UI then a simple search will give you Touchwiz.

This is in no way uniform or a theme, but it is the Touchwiz User Interface Launcher, and as such should give you at least a taste of your Galaxy S craving.

There's also a few slight S based themes here and there. But I doubt you will see a Samsung rom ported to our phones, unless someone that truly likes it, much like yourself, decides to make it happen.

Hope that helps.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] cordell12:
I made my own sort of Galaxy S theme. There are as smoothtaste said there are a few themes floating around here. I downloaded them all and made one from them using jaybob's BlackMod as a base. I would share but I did not include the boot animation, or the Galaxy S status bar. Below is a link to a Galaxy S launcher Pro theme, a good one too!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=821851&highlight=galaxy

I have puzzle pieces for answering the phone too :)

The status bar Icons were Galaxy S but I changed them...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] bbplaya4life:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] swishersweedz420:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] cordell12:
This is the theme that got me hooked on Galaxy S look. I had trouble flashing the rom/theme though, it would never let me do the google set up from a clean install :( Thats why I set out to create my own. I merged parts of all there Galaxy S themes out there, then made my own status bar :) Yours I used the dark blue and puzzle pieces :) Thanks

swishersweedz420, would you mind posting just the flashable theme, without it merged into a rom? TY

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mumbaiyya:
I have recently started dabbling with rooting my phone and guess what- I LOVE IT!...I have been having so much fun getting the phone streamlined without the unnecessary apps and getting a faster response from the phone, that I want to do it for my wife's phone as well. She has the same HTC Hero and has been complaining of the poor response of her phone for a while. I want to clone my phone on her phone while I keep playing with the configurations and improvements on my phone. Is there a way to migrate all the changes I have done on mine into her phone seamlessly? I was thinking of some sort of nandroid backup made on mine, being used on hers- (I am a noob, so play nicely :))
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ahager88:
As far as I know, although I've never tested it...

If you root her phone and put the same recovery image on her phone (albeit Clockwork, Amon_Ra, or Darch) then it SHOULD successfully restore a nandroid image made on your phone. It might be easiest to just pop your sdcard into her phone when you restore your nandroid, that way you take no chances on the files being corrupted in the process.

The only problem I see with this is that if you restore a rom onto another phone, you'll in turn have to delete your sync data afterwards and then redo the setup with her gmail, etc etc.

Hope this helps and good luck! Glad you're enjoying your phone!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] cordell12:
Doesnt work, I tried to use a nandroid of Fresh 2.4 from my wifes phone so I could update PRL and I kept getting errors :(

Both are HTC Hero's

It did boot up and all, but data and all that was messed up, maybe if he edited the build prop to match her phone?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thoughtlesskyle:
yea i could see the MSL and MSID being messed up when moving from phone to phone also
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ahager88:
Perhaps. But I wouldn't think so. If that was the case wouldn't you have to manually edit them everytime you flashed? I thought that data was kept on a separate partition... am I wrong?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] cordell12:
No clue as to why it didnt work for me but it didnt...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] riggsandroid:
When I had my phone replaced, I saved the nandroid from my original phone, used the same SD card, and had "my" phone back up and running in no time.

This shouldn't be an issue really.

My only question is, why not have the wife pick her ROM, theme, apps, customizations for herself?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] cordell12:
I think the key word is "my" The nandroid I took from my wifes Hero worked for her phone. I had nandroided back and did a PRL update on her phone. I took that same file and placed it on my Hero and did the nandroid, it booted and everything :) Excited I went to update PRL and tried but kept getting a error. I tried to update profile and would get the same error.

Why?

Can it work if it got edited?

I dont know, I think it builds something on first boot that takes your info (cant remember what its called) and when trying to connect it needs that info. If it doesnt match what the ROM is telling the network thats where the errors come from, atleast I think, lol.

Try it, maybe it just didnt work for me.

I agree with riggsandroid though, flash her a clean install and let her pick and choose what she wants :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] rivers24:
Why not just use titanium backup on one, then restore it on the other? Unless I'm misunderstanding the problem.
