Hey noob question here. I flashed the viper rom and I don't like it :(. How do I unflash it, as in make things back to normal.
[Epic 4G General] wjsmaggle:
The obvious answer would be use your backup if you made one. If not you can flash a different rom. If you decide to flash a 2.1 rom you'll need to flash a 2.1 kernel as well. If you want to go back to stock I would just odin back to stock. Instructions here:

[Epic 4G General] johnyardavid:
I would consider something like the acs dk17 because it's completely stable and it is essentially the same as a 2.1 stock rom but it has the capabilities of 2.2. Going back to 2.1 would (to me) be the same as using a stock dk17 rom like acs, which I'm using right now and loving. Two cents.
[Epic 4G General] dannych124:
odin

Is there only one type of odin because the link you gave me for restoring had a broken odin download link. I see another odin download that's for the acs dk17 and was wondering if it'll be the same.
[Epic 4G General] wjsmaggle:
Yeah you can use the new odin. If for some reason that fails pm me and I'll give you the old version of odin.

Get it straight from the horses mouth. Start here.........

Download the SDK and run an Android phone emulator on your PC. Have a look at some of the tutorials and code samples on the site.

Most applications are written in Java.

hi all,

my x10i suddenly stoped charging. It was connected to my pc and I noticed that the LED light is not shinning. Then I tried to charge it from wall adapter and car charger, but with no result.

Sometimes when Im lucky, it connects somehow and charges a while, but my pc wont recognize it.

My question:

Is it a hardware defect?

yeh I want to know the same thing. My phone suddenly stopped charging at all. I tried several different chargers and USB cables, issue remains. Computer wont detect as when USB cable is attached no light on x10a? Can someone help and question remains the same:

Is it hardware related defect?

also how can it be fixed?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pentiumvi:
It is most likely a hardware problem. The fix requires some soldering work to be done.

[HTC Aria General] emigre:
Hi everyone,

I would like to hear what changes you noticed if you have made the transition from Liberated R12 to Liberated FroYo FR007.

I don't know anything about kernels, setcpu or stuffs like that — I'm just a regular fella who love coffee and just made a proper installation of FR007 2 days ago and reverted back to R12 today because:

1. I noticed that its' performance is a tad slower (I think).

2. eBuddy kept crashing, mostly after the phone goes to sleep.

3. Wi-fi network stopped after phone goes to sleep (but it was already noted in the thread to download FR007).

4. Responsiveness isn't quite as nimble (ie. swiping between homescreens, launching apps, connecting to networks, etc).

5. It hangs quite a bit

While it may have some drawbacks, there are also some nice things that came with the FR007 ROM, most noticeably:

1. Better UI interfaces

2. More options in some features/settings

3. Cooler OS name (what's cooler than Frozen Yogurt?)

I bet there are much more powerful stuff and greater potential in the FR series that most regular users like myself won't understand, and that this is just the precursor/preview to a stable version. However at the moment it's R12 vs FR007.

So at the moment I'm going to stick with R12 and patiently wait for future releases of the FR series.

What are your observations? Thanks for sharing!
[HTC Aria General] ZorAxe:
Each to their own! I'm using FR007 on my Aria which was purchased in USA and the only problem I have is sometimes the Weather Widget sometimes hangs. That's all.
[HTC Aria General] joachim123:
I, too, am running FR007, however my ebuddy hasnt crashed at all for me. I do notice a little bit of lag swiping homescreens but having a LWP on would affect that for sure.

i havent noticed a hang unless im tryin to multitask several apps around.

Those are pretty small issues for me for my previous phone was the Hero CDMA.. and this is like a million times better. :P
[HTC Aria General] blindfusion:
I agree with most of what you're saying. I've been using FR007 for a while now, but I feel like it's a little slower than R012 was. I turned off the LWP and I'm using LauncherPro, but it skips and jerks a little more than R012 did on homescreens.

Still debating whether I want to switch back, I just don't want to not have Froyo on there. I do like the apps and features that Froyo provides (Gmail upgrade, etc)
[HTC Aria General] duckredbeard:
WiFi sleep policy may be defaulted to "After 15 minutes". Look into Menu>Settings>Wireless & networks>Wi-Fi settings>Menu>Advanced>WiFi sleep policy. That is one buried setting!

In the messaging app, hit menu, settings, and uncheck black background. You will need to back out of the messaging app, and go back into it for the changes to take effect. This does nothing for the settings menu, or the contacts app.

I have been trying for now going on 15 hours straight and for the life of

me I cannot get Android to load . I have hspl3 , 3nergy Rom , 2.15.50 Radio .

I have tried 5 different types of Android builds (not at the same time) .

What happens is Ill get the Penguin then the HTC White Screen , Then the

Android Icon , then right when it gets to load into the lock screen it vibrates

and shuts the phone completely down . No change between builds . I have

tried different SD cards all formatted to FAT32 , Factory Reset device many times ,

Every single time I Extract the .zip files to the SD Root so theres an Android

folder or if there isnt one I make one . I make sure the SD cards are empty when

doing this too . Please help Im ripping my hair out :mad:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Reno_79:
First of all, try downgrading the HSPL to 2.08, some people report "issues" with version 3 (for some it works perfect, for some it doesn't work at all).

You may also want to Task29 the phone. This will completely wipe every piece of data from the memory (contacts, sms etc) so use a backup program first if there is anything you want to keep. I appreciate this is quite drastic but it will ensure there's nothing on the phone that could be causing issues.

Try the spl version version, then with a freshly formatted SD card (full format, FAT32, at least 2Gb as some builds require 1.5Gb to create the datastore) try loading Android and fingers crossed you won't have to Task29.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AZ2ENVY:

If you've got extended battery then this is your problem. Try a build with extended battery support or replace the kernel with a version that does support extended battery
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AZ2ENVY:
Yep I have an extended battery . Would the Android build be reading the battery stats wrong and shutting down the phone ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AZ2ENVY:
Thats what the problem was ! Extended battery doesnt work with Android builds ! Thanks for the help !
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rafian:
That's not quite right mate. You can run almost every build with extended battery. All you have to do is either to find a build with support for extended batteries or to download 'regular' build and use a kernel that supports extended batteries.

For the second option it's as much work as to overwrite existing kernel files with the suitable one - takes less than a minute check for example Kernel buils of hatstarin with the extention eb or m-deejay kernels with ext battery support. Since I figured out what was the problem I'm a big fan of m-deejays work.

How can I use this app as default dialer? I need it because I want to see the counter for missed calls?
[Android Apps and Games] slinky1914:
I love this app too. The widget shows missed calls BTW the widget is awesome.
[Android Apps and Games] irish22022:
It's frustrating, this app.

It's rad, the UI looks awesome. It pretends to be so functional... But it's so far from it.

No * or # key, really? I get that it's chinese, but come on. How many users have to request it in the comments before you just add the damn things?

I don't want to have to add a widget to homescreen. There isn't room for it. Make the app fully functional without it (aka show missed calls).

Doesn't sync with facebook.

Doesn't thread together contacts (like say if you had a regular phone and a google voice phone already in your contacts... in the default I can just thread the two together, in Youlu I have to delete one and then add the other to the contact manually)

Pictures are sometimes there for my favs, sometimes not. I even re add a picture or change the picture. It sometimes takes the app opening closing like 5 times before it appears, and then it can leave just as easily.

After all that I'm still struggling to remove it from my phone, but being realistic, this thing isn't a dialer. It's just not. It's a cool UI that pretends to be one, while missing a half a dozen key components.

Sometimes I wonder if the stock dialer was something that was actually ****ty, and then the current stock dialer came out with a hip name and was third party, how crazy would people go for that? It has everything.
[Android Apps and Games] DigitalDementia:
I have no choice but to completely agree irish22022 it's a very nice looking UI and I enjoyed it quite a lot until I was trying to get in touch with customer service (*611) or check the balance on my phone (#BAL) it's extremely frustrating to be missing these two key digits, almost a showstopper however I keep using it hoping they will eventually add what we need. As far as for only allowing one account that doesn't bother me so much because I have all of my contacts backed up to one Google account which only made sense to me, so that doesn't bother me so much. However the * and # issue really needs to be corrected.
[Android Apps and Games] ballubas:
has the inter-grated sms thing still there, i can t get rid of it!
[Android Apps and Games] irish22022:
you can open the sms client in the app drawer that appears after installation, go to settings, and disable everything.

It's still ridiculous that they install that on your computer along with the address book. Should definitely be a seperate app.
[Android Apps and Games] unomasdos:
Just update is now acceptinf # &*
[Android Apps and Games] raphifix:
It has been the fastest smart dialer for me-even faster than dialer one. I would still like it if you could search within the call log and/or the contact list as well.
[Android Apps and Games] whipping:
Unfortunately the last version also installs a default SMS app which is worse than Handcent....
[Android Apps and Games] saltorio:
Agreed. I don't like the fact it installs an SMS client, as I already have and prefer Handcent. At least you can disable it.
[Android Apps and Games] whipping:
Can you explain me how?? I didn't find any option!
[Android Apps and Games] ballubas:
Doesnt work for me on my x10!:-(
[Android Apps and Games] irish22022:
are you at least in the sms client? it looks nothing like the phone book. If it's not in your app drawer, open up the dialer, go to contacts, click on a contact, and click the envelope rather then the dialer (if you don't see the envelope, then go to settings and look for the option to include a text shortcut for your contacts). This defaults to youlu's sms client. From there, hit the menu button, click settings and disable notifications.

You can't uninstall the sms app, but you can silence it so you don't know it's there. And you also can't change the default sms app within youlu phone book, it will always open up their sms app.

This is an ancient issue from before even the hero was out.

It is no longer an issue, moved to general

Wrong, I just quoted the wrong article.

The issue I meant has been discovered yesterday:

See here:

Hi guys,

I am searching an app which shows me which app uses internet. Does an app like this exists if yes whats ita name. Yesterday i searched in market but found nothing. Thanks for your help...
[General Questions and Answers] schriss:
Good idea, I sometimes go through my Accounts and Sync settings to make sure I only sync things I really need and not too often. Otherwise it kills battery.

An app that shows applications using internet or even processes would be nice. Because some apps connect periodically, the app would simply need to log App/Procvess name and Date/Time interned has been accessed. Maybe even show for how long?

Also I wonder if the application could have option to Block specified app from being able to access internet... for example have a schedule, only allow given app to connect from 9AM to 11PM, to save battery during night.

[General Questions and Answers] EfendY:
Thanks for help. I found it in the market, works great.

But the app I'm searching should work as follows:

It shows all apps and system apps (like wheather etc.) as like the app network traffic stats AND if the app has the permission to connect to internet automatically (for example there is an icon on the right from which you can recognize whether the app auto-connects or not). At the first start of the app it analyses all the apps on the phone and shows them in list like the app network traffic stats. And everytime you install a new app the new app will be included to this list.

Does something like this exist?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] spookydownunder:
Hi guys,

Been searching around but can't find answers, please if you know this question has been asked, just point me in the right direction.

I have a Vodafone Magic (yeah, yeah, I know, stupid right? Fancy wanting an android phone that the supplier will never upgrade past 1.6) But I didn't have that knowledge at the time. While I'm not happy with the phone generally, I have a more specific question.

I have always been happy enough using the stock broswer, although I have tried others too. But Just yesterday a problem turned up, that even using alternate browsers does not help with. When I go onto google site, and into preferences (settings) for google, which goes basically to the same page regardless of browser, I have always been able to save my prefernces, Ie safe search (other than moderate), save location, save searches etc. But yesterday, and since, every time I change a setting, save and then go back into settings, nothing I changed has altered.

Basically rambling, but say I change safe search to strict, press save, goes back to google page, go back into settings, and sure enough safe search is back to moderate.

This used to happen only when I cleared cache.

What the hell have I done to the phone to cause this, it's really quite irritating.

I have turned phone off and back on. I haven't done a factory reset yet, as hoping there is a solution that doesn't invole reinstalling all apps etc. I haven't done a soft reset, because I don't know if one exists.

Thanks in advance,

Steve
