[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt105:
Anyone else have problems with this? My MT4G keeps trying to put the pictures in a "slideshow" or something, and I either get error messages when trying to send the pictures to people (usually people without android phones or android but not MT4G), or the people get an error when trying to view the picture on their phone. This has happened with 3-4 people now. I have to end up emailing it to them. What gives?

Could anyone else try this? YOu don't have to send the picture, you go to gallery, view the picture, share it with "Messages" (is this what I'm doing wrong?), and it adds it to a slideshow thing asking if you want a new slide or whatever. I don't think other people's phones support this though...

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt105:
Another thing, can you make it not do this slideshow thing? What does that even do anyway? What happens if you try to send a slideshow to a non-android phone, does it just show up for them as a text with a picture attached? What if your slideshow had 2 pictures?

Sorry for all the questions, I just cant find any documentation on how this slideshow stuff works... :/

I think it's one of the default internet service provider for one of the main apps we use on the MT4G.

I wouldn't Delete it I would just switch to the tmobile data one, just in case we need that service provider for like for example Video chat...

Can you guys download apps from the market (WITH WIFI OFF) when you have the tmobile network selected? I can't. Mine says "Download starting..." and doesn't do anything for like 5 minutes (didn't wait around longer than that). I asked tmobile and they told me to clear the market data/cache, but that didn't help. They then told me I could try returning the phone. But I don't really want to do that.

I just want to see if this is just my problem or if this is everyones!

white hides scratches better than black no? I could be wrong but just saying from experience. I guess I'm too picky for reds it has to be a certain tone, one that's not dried-blood red or cherry-ish etc. I have a white MT4G but I just got this black glossy snap-on case should be here in a few days.

[Droid X General] joshw0000:
I may be upgrading to the X soon from a rooted Eris. I've read threads for a couple hours now and keep reading about a sbf. What is it and how do you do it? Also, is Clockwork (I believe Koush modded it somehow) the only recovery available? I currently use Amon Ra recovery on my Eris to wipe and flash roms/updates/themes. Apparently there's a different process for the X that I don't yet understand.

This is how I see the whole rom flashing process working - please correct me if I'm wrong: First you root, then install the recovery app (is it an app? It replaces the recovery partition on the Eris). To boot into recovery you run the app. From there you can wipe data and dalvik, and flash roms/updates. Can you also back up and restore roms? Also, I read something about mounting /system to flash roms. So that means it's really only making changes in the system folder. Is /data affected? If not, are apps carried over from rom to rom?

How high can the X be overclocked?

Are there any CyanogenMod roms available?

Has anyone bricked an X? Is this common or only if you're careless?

I really appreciate any feedback. Like I said, I'm not new to rooting but know very little about the X and from what I've read the process is a bit different than what I'm used to.
[Droid X General] zanix:
The SBF is basically a factory reset, it restores the X to it's factory state

Great if you happen to mess up while flashing a new ROM

The Bootstrap is an application, there is currently no way to flash a recovery to our bootloader.

This said, it still can still wipe cache, /system, /data, davlik, and backup/flash/update ROMs.

There are options to mount certain partitions and some roms need this before you install them such as Fission which needs /system and /data.

Some ROMs suggest clearing /data when you install them, just read their instructions.

If you do not clear /data, then your apps will carry over, since they reside in /data/app/.

I have heard the X overclocked up to 2.0ghz, but I also heard this is unstable.

I have heard of stable clocks of 1.15, 1.2, 1.3.

YMMV, as mine only can go up to 1.1 before it freezes.

There are 2 apps that I know of that make overclocking easy.

They are $0.99 for each.

I prefer the one called Droid 2/X Overclock http://www.appbrain.com/app/droid-x-2-overclock/com.jrummy.droidx.overclock

Cyanogen ROMs are not available on the X due to our locked bootloader

I'm sure many have bricked or bootlooped their X, but in most cases, the sbf can save you.
[Droid X General] joshw0000:
Zanix,

Thanks for the fast and informative response. Your OC app suggestion is well noted. If I cannot get Setcpu to work I'll probably use it.

How is internal memory on the X? Verizon boasts that it has 8 GB but surely it doesn't have that much left for apps and processes after all is said and done. My phone currently only has 159 MB (depending on the size of the rom I use) so the X will be a nice upgrade for me.
[Droid X General] jrard44:
SetCPU works fine on my Droid X; after I rooted it, obviously. However, SetCPU does not overclock. It underclocks. SetCPU is meant to save you battery life by throttling the CPU.

The linked app is specifically for overclocking the Droid 2/X. It serves a different purpose, ie getting more performance out of your phone.

Just wanted to make sure you are aware of that distinction.
[Droid X General] milan616:
The X has 8GB of internal storage (ROM), less space taken for the included system files and applications. Mine shows 7.02GB with 6.67GB free. The Eris has far less space if I recall, only 512MB total. You'll be able to install apps to the X to your heart's content.

The Droid X also has 512MB of RAM for processes to use, vs 288MB that the Eris has.
[Droid X General] joshw0000:
I'll be talking to Verizon very soon!
[Droid X General] angryspoon:
How is the battery life on a rooted Droid X?

I have a HTC Incredible that my wife wants so I am thinking of getting the X as nothing better is out.

Simply afraid the battery will suck or Rooting and such will be way to tough.

Does ROM manager work with the X?
[Droid X General] thepolishguy:
The battery on the X can't be any worse than the Incredible. HTC (I love their phones - had 1 before my X and will be getting one soon) is notoriously bad at battery consumption. I think you can expect to be on e at the end of the night with a day of moderate use.

Rooting is easy. Download "Z4Root" from the market. Hit the "Root me" button. You are good to go.

Rom manager works. But not much in there. I love Rubix. A lot of people are using Fission.

You know that the X has a locked boot loader so there are no custom kernels right? Although they did come up with a way to overclock (and under clock).
[Droid X General] joshw0000:
What does having a locked boot loader restrict you from doing, other than changing the kernel and adding custom boot images (the splash image displayed before the boot animation)? I know that it's made the custom recovery image difficult but it sounds like you have a work-around. Anything I left off?

...talked to Verizon today. I can transfer my mother-in-law's upgrade to my line and upgrade for $200. One of my buddies wants my Eris for his wife for $150. So for $50 I should be getting an X soon!
[Droid X General] thepolishguy:
Even with a locked bootloader you can still change the boot logo and the boot animation.

But you cannot change the kernel. Is it that big of deal? Well it means all of the great roms - Cyanogen, Bugles Beast, etc, will never run on the X because they all use a custom kernel.

Oh- and you can never run even a simple AOSP rom - just plain old stock android - because of the motorola kernel. You can run a pretty good imitation of the stock android rom - but it is till just that - an imitation.

It also means that when verizon wireless and motorola abandon the X project (whenever that is) that we will no longer be able to update our OS. We could get stuck on 2.3 gingerbread while the Droid 1 is running 3.5 Lemon Meringue- bc the Droid 1 bootloader is unlocked.

Not really a big deal though to me. I am just going to buy a new phone. And it will not be a motorola. I love my X. But I want to do what I want to do. Just me though.
[Droid X General] joshw0000:
Coming from the HTC Eris, I can say that I feel the pain but I'm pretty sure the bootloader will one day be unlocked. It only takes one disgruntled Moto employee to slip it and there are no limitations from there. It took several months for the Eris to get an unlocked bootloader. In fact, we thought we'd never even get rooted. It's an EOL phone that never received an official 2.2 OTA. Thanks to the developers, it has vanilla and sense 2.2 roms.

My biggest complaint with the Eris is the physical hardware limitations. The X dominates it so I think I'll be happy on a stock kernel until the bootloader is unlocked.

...should be arriving Tuesday.
[Droid X General] zwade01:
I just came from an Eris myself last week. The things you're used to with the Eris are a little more difficult on the X, but once you get in the swing of it, you get used to it. Also, go with the Certified pre-owned. I got it for $150 and it looks brand new, you literally cannot tell. It's worth the extra $50 off. I sold my Eris on eBay for $162.50 so it was nice getting paid to get a new DX lol. You won't regret switching!
[Droid X General] joshw0000:
My Droid X came in 2 days ago. I rooted it last night. I'm going to keep the stock rom until I've had enough time to get the feel for the X. I kinda like the Moto Blur. Any rom suggestions? Something semi stock with Blur, only deodexed and OC'ed.
[Droid X General] 1KDS:
rubiX blurry 1.5.2 is a good ROM, leaves the blur in tact but slims it down and speeds it up. I don't beleive there are any kernal tweaks in it though, so you may get jrummy's oc app
[Droid X General] joshw0000:
That's the one I used. Then I updated it to 1.6.3 and themed it with the black and green juice theme. So far I'm happy with it. Idk why he changed the build to read that it's 2.2.1. Scared me at first. I thought I had accidentally flashed a leaked rom....I'm starting to learn my way around the DX.

I spent a long time registering with swype and trying to join the beta group. Its been closed for more than 5 months now and doubt it will reopen soon. theres a cracked version out all you havve to do is google it. I got it for the mytouch 3g and my experience is that slide it (although not as flashy as swype) is ten times better. Slide It is faster, takes up less memory, and doesn't pop up that annoying word box that takes up half the screen. IMO trying to get swype is a waste of time but im sure you'd like to decide that for yourself! :P

new to samsung all together...

been with motorola and SonyEricsson for ever and a day. My friend has a vibrant, and its pretty sweet.. thinking about getting one. Im NOT NEW to mods and editing, scripting or anything else...I have numerous hand built mods on my milestone... just new to samsung and the "odin" deal it uses to mod things.

he has the TeamWhiskey Bionix 2.1 build... just curious as to how solid that really is, and if its worth the download.

also... any other suggested roms/mods... im not a beginner, so dont be afraid to the throw a curveball at me... just looking for fun to try, since im 100% to samsung.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frizzmmm:
Welcome, And good to see your enthusiasim. All of the roms you can pick up for this device are pretty solid. I have made it a point to flash every rom I can get my hands on, and have been plesently surprised with how polished they all are.

I would suggest picking up a 2.2 rom, macnut, axura, onyx, obsidian, aosp'ish... and letting that take root on your vibe. And once you get a hold of that take a peak at the FFC thread ( Sorry if this seems condescending, but FFC is Front Facing Camera ). You will be glad you did, because the fact that the Vibrant can be modded in such a unique way makes me glad I have it.

Lastly have some fun with the plethora of Kernels available... Play with stock, get dirty with an OC/UV, or have a little fun with Universal Lag Fix... There are so many posibilities out there

Check the stickies, they have the best links to all these options
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lqaddict:
All is required it to root Vibrant to unleash the beast hidden inside it!

ODIN isn't used for modding per se, it is for one of these moments when you go "oh snap, i might've bricked my Vibrant"

Before modding begins make sure you can reliably get into recovery and download modes with ADB and manually.

All the tools and tips are available in the bible in the dev section

The link in my signature takes care of the basics to get rooted, get a recovery, maing backups...

For roms, I suggest froyo. There is also a link to what many prefer for froyo in my signature as well.

The Vibrant is a cake-walk and a tank, VERY hard to brick if you use common sense. The one thing to remember is that a nandroid does not restore a kernel 9moving from eclair to froyo and vice versa).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ph0z3:
well after reading up on alot of them, im interested in the new Obsidian 4.2 and the AOSP'ish rom.

Now its this similar to motorola modding, where i just flash the rom & im done? ...or is there additional stuff that needs to be done? I keep hearing about this "LagFix" thing.. and im not really sure what that is, or what it does.

Im not the hugest fan of froyo, but TeamWhiskey seems to really know their stuff, so i just want to know how to get 2.2 loaded, so i can load these roms.

I have my milestone all tricked out, and custom edits to the build.prop, ect... but our roms are based on recovery images, not kernels, since the kernel isnt FULLY unlocked.

i cant find bootanimation.zip inside media.i can see bootani.qwg file. how to replace it??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Might seem like a simple question but did you take out the original bootanimation.zip before you put the new one in? Also you have to set the permissions correctly. Try again and pull original out and put on sdcard. Put new one in and check permissions. Then reboot. I've done this many times, so not sure why it didn't work for you.

If you don't see bootanimation.zip in /system/media but rather a bunch of bootani.qwg files, your kernel doesn't support it. I know the Bali kernals do, as most Voodoo injected ones do too.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mhassanz:
first of all sorry if my post in wrong place.

Please help me out with this situation.

I used to have HTC touch pro2, and as you might know that you can find hundred of ROMS and apps like pim backup, SPB shell, garmin, etc. I just bought HTC HD7, its really smooth no lagging no craking, very responsive it never freeze or stuck as HTC TOUCH PRO2 OR HD2, but i didnt find any rom or any apps for hd7, i used to have such as SMSSPAM, POWERSMS,etc.

So i was wondering should i go for Samsung vibrant? how is that? is that responsive? smooth? I believe that android have more apps than htc hd7 i didn't find any good free apps, every single game is for $6-7, that sucks. I have my one year old sms i always make backup of that with pim backup, but in this HTC HD7 i cant transfer my those sms.

What you guys think? which one is better
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
at this point its not about what is better, but what is a better fit for you. android is more mature than wp7 so therefore it has a big headstart in apps. It is more customizable but also has its quirks. If you get the vibrant you will have to root it and install the one click lag fix otherwise it lags big time. After installing that it seems to be a pretty good phone if you like android.

the HD7 I think is a smoother product, but the apps are going to take some time. For me, the only real app I am missing is a call block/ filter program.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mhassanz:
I like windows cellphone just because it doesn't have ristrictions, you can install any apps, change any rom, transfer files via bluetooth. But i was unable to transfer files via bluetooth in HD7, and what type of files it support? .Cab???

This. Just to add on the lagfix, I am running with no lagfix installed, and it is smooth, but I am also running the custom 2.2 ROM.

For the love of god don't get android!!! I've had many droid phones....they all suk!!! The os is slow and clunky!!! Don't do it. Plus the vibrant is garbage!!
[Windows Phone 7 General] lqaddict:
Sorry you feel this way, but judging by the sig you have a VZW's Fascinate, where it is a pretty much the same phone as the Vibrant but with a few differences, the XDA development support between Fascinate and Vibrant is night and day.

To the OP - unless you are not planning to root your phone to make it run the way you want it Vibrant might not be what you want out of the box.
