I also got errors with Amon-Ra 1.8.0 installed.

FRG83 produced errors because i deletet some stock apps like browser.apk. I found here a modified update.zip and could update.

This time with the org. FRG83D update.zip i get the same error. But i cant find a modified zip here....

Can someone help or missed i a thread with the modified zip?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
Are you running a stock ROM? Is it deodexed? Did you delete any apps? If you are trying to flash the original signed update, for it to flash, you need to be running a stock, odexed ROM with all the original apps still present.

Perhaps I'm just being a dummy, but there doesnt seem to be an icon for "file manager" on the phone. I have stored contacts and photos on my sim card from the previous phone. I know its working as I have made and received calls and texts, and imported the contacts from the SIM card. But I cannot seem to get at the photos there. I have installed PC companion but the "drive" that its opening I believe is the actual phone memory card, and not the sim card. If I knew how to access the photos on the sim card it would be great, there doesnt seem to be an easy way via the photo menus either (mediascape? whats that, I just want to see the photos stored on my sim card!). When I open contacts at the top it says

"My Number: sim card not available"

is there a problem with the sim card itself? It imported contacts so I assume its OK and it makes calls and texts.

thanks for any help
[General Questions and Answers] ldsdbomber:
I guess I couldn't/can't find the how to relating to accessing files on the SIM Card rather than the SD card. If you know where the relevant thread is that would be "cool". I use the word "cool" as you seem to have a Samuel L Jackson avatar, so I am not sure whether to take you seriously or not "dude".

Hey there folks. I'm looking for some type of script or adb command to over-ride the headphones for every sound when they're plugged in. When using cyanogenmod I found a CM setting, under the sound sub menu, that allows me to over-ride the headphones on particular sounds. This makes me believe there has to be a way to do it for every sound including music and phone calls. Any insight or direction would he appreciated. Thanks
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] settlethestorm:
Bump?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zalatorisaurus:
Settings->CM Settings->Sound Settings. I think this is what you might be looking for and it's on all Froyo Vanilla ROMs that are CM based. Check the section titled "Note." It says all of those settings are applied only when headphones are being used. They seem to be what you're looking for. Hope this helps.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] settlethestorm:
I appreciate your response but unfortunately that's what I already do lol :( with those settings I can enable alarms, notifications, and ringtone. My hope is that since cyanogenmod has those options, there has to be a way to apply that to the few things I still can't hear unless my headphones are in. This would include any/all music apps, hearing who Calls me without having to use speaker phone, and game/app sounds/music. I know my speaker can still play music because one day I was listening to music(with headphones of course!) And got a call. So I unplug my headphones and pick up the call n press speakerphone. Well, after the call when I hit end, I heard a split second of the song I was listening too beforehand on the speaker. That gives me hope that I can eventually overcome this. PS.- none of the headset overide apps in the market work.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROM_Guest:
Hi Guys!

So I recently figured out how to install the CM Nightlys after I was reassured I wouldnt delete my settings. That was awesome because I can feel an improvement in responsiveness.

I also installed the Googleapps.zip and tried the new [Morph] for Cyan Jog dial.

So I have a couple of questions.

- Can I use Metamorph to install things other than [Morph]'s that are in the Nexus one Themes and Apps section?

- I tried to use ROM Manager to install nightly for the first time, but it seems redundant in that all it does is reboot into recovery..and i have to install from zip there, which i could have gotten to with just a reboot :)

Am I doing something wrong?

And thank you for your advice with Metamorph.

cheers

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ben_duder:
Hey guys

After trawling through Google, eBay and XDA I haven't been successful in finding anywhere that sells replacements for the black panel/sticker things that have to be ripped off in order to take the phone apart. I might be getting a Milestone with a broken digitizer in a few weeks and, judging from disassembly guides, you have to be pretty rough with these bits to get them off.

I'm talking about the copper bit, the top bit and the bit with the Google logo, all on the rear of the phone.

Any help would be much appreciated!

One more thing: would I be right in thinking that the 855 and 853 digitizers are interchangeable?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] bitz_dv:
In the states I have seen these things from one seller on ebay, quite expensive though. If caution is exercised, all can be removed with little or no destruction to them. If you have a hot air gun. that also helps to soften the glue.

The only one that may get a little bent is the metallic grille. Careful on this with the heat gun if you use one, my first droid I accidentally set it to high heat, and the grille shriveled up as if it were plastic. I would use a razor flush with the grill and slowly work it under, if you start at one end and pull like in the guides I've seen, it will definitely bend.

The other two can be removed with a soft plastic splunger tool, just start at one end and take your time freeing it from the glue, the one with the google logo is brittle and can crack, also if you are too ruff, the black will scratch off the back of it. The top piece is pretty sturdy and a piece of cake, I had a skin on one Droid and the two top pieces came up together.

If you do mess them up and can't find replacements, and the phone is yours, who cares? rock it out with an ugly back ;)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ben_duder:
Thanks :) By chance I bought a heat gun to fix something else the other week... Unfortunately it seems like the one I won on eBay has been tampered with already as the copper is 'disturbed'. Oh well... Like you said, I guess it'll just be unique :) I could buy a vinyl instead.

PS If you ever find that eBay listing, please tell me :)

Edit Again: Yay, finally found the mesh on eBay. If anyone else needs a replacement it's here.
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
I've read you can flash the JI2 or JI6 modem on top of the current Froyo ROMs... anyone have opinions as to how the stock JK2 modem performs compared to those Eclair modems? I loved the battery efficiency of JI2 and was wondering how it's worked for other people.

I could be wrong but I think you need to read a few TUTs on installing. Of course maybe I AM wrong and you have already read these tuts and they did not contain the information you need.

Starting to look like you really have not taken the time to read any tuts. I'll give you the binefit of the doubt though.......

Wait a minute, you fooled me man. You didn't read ANYTHING did you?

I'm not the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree but I think I've been tricked here

Awww, you got me dude. Good one, I never saw it coming!

Seriously though, do not waste people's time on here with this crap. There are TUTs ALL OVER the place on XDA to show you and tell you everything you need to know to answer the question you are asking here. I had NO prior experience with this a month ago and it took me about 20 minutes to read up on everything I needed to know to get started. The things you are asking here are things that could screw up your phone if you do not know or understand them. I'm not going to tell you what any of this is because like I said, IT IS ALL RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF YOU.

In fact, just read my sig man. Don't bother trying to flame me for this post either. If you can't handle basic reading and research skills, you REALLY do not need to attempt getting in a debate with me.

[General Questions and Answers] jagpoag:
It has nothing to do with "not knowing much". It has EVERYTHING to do with basic research and READING skills. ALL of the information you want is CLEARLY posted in STICKIES. You can get mad and try to cover your anger with that pathetic attempt at "taking the high road" and trying to appear like you are a "better person" all you want. The FACT is that you have not taken the time to READ and LEARN anything. You HAVE however expected to post this question here and then get answers without having to do any real work on your own part. You have been a member here for over a year and have two post now. WHAT have you been doing during those two years? You obviously have not been using that time to read and learn anything. Try to paint me as the ass here but you have made a fool of your self without my help. People like you are the reason why forums are cluttered with crap all of the time.

THAT questions tells me all I need to know about you. The descriptions you are looking for a CLEARLY MARKED. Of course, the people that took the time to type out the "descriptions", tuts and install methods assumed that people had the common sense needed to know what forum they would find the information in. FOR STARTERS, looking in the DEVICE SPECIFIC FORUM would be GREAT. I can't believe I even have to tell you that. SECOND, the SEARCH function is there for a reason. It is not my fault you do not understand how a simple SEARCH works. And of course, there is always this option:

I can only get around 7 hours of use.

Is there any problem with my device?
[Galaxy Tab General] mach330:
same here. i don't know how you guys are getting so much better battery life. i can barely last a day and i don't use it all that much. maybe 2-3 hrs of surfing the web over wifi (not even 3g). i even used setcpu to underclock to 200Mhz when screen is off.
[Galaxy Tab General] pentraks:
Maybe it has something to do with the very first charge.

When i unboxed the battery was fully charged so i drained it and had it charged for 8 hours. maybe it needed to be charged prior first usage. :mad:
[Galaxy Tab General] dravisher:
Is that 12-15 hours with the screen on? Because that's much more than I'm seeing.

I've done a few measurements just to get an idea of the battery life. They are just extrapolations based on a few hours of runtime for each so they are by no means exact, but my impression is that they give a decent view of real values nonetheless. The battery percentage indicator does not seem to be terribly non-linear.

Video playing (SD quality) with full brightness: 5.5 hours

Video playing (SD quality) with lowest brightness: 9.5 hours

Idle at homescreen with full brightness: 6 hours

Idle at homescreen with half brightness: 9 hours

Idle at homescreen with lowest brightness: 12 hours

Music playing in headphones (screen off): 90 hours

Can't believe how lazy reviewers seem to be, I haven't read a single one where they have properly measured battery life for things like playing movies or reading an ebook. It's all just subjective feelings (which are obviously very unreliable).

All in all I am pretty pleased with the battery life (but I've just had it for a few days). I especially like the fact that it's basically a normal Android phone just with a giant screen and battery. This obviously means that standby and music playing times are going to be excellent.

Edit: Those of you who think you're seeing bad battery life, what does the battery use thingy in settings say? Or is that not a good tool?
[Galaxy Tab General] raqball:
I read a post somewhere where the OP was getting horrible battery life and found out that the Gallery app was draining the battery.

The OP in that thread said even exiting the app did not kill it, and it kept draining the battery.

Perhaps you can look into this more. I never use the gallery app so maybe why this is why i get decent battery life?

Here is the thread

[Galaxy Tab General] dravisher:
If it's this post you're referring to it's by me :). The Gallery application shows up under battery use though, so I'm pretty sure that's not it.

Are you sure it's really as much as 12-15 hours with the screen always on? If it were 9-10 hours with brightness at half it would around what I'm seeing I guess, but 12-15 is quite a lot more. Not that I'm disappointed, but if better is possible better is what I want ;)
[Galaxy Tab General] raqball:
No not 12-15 hours with the screen always on.... I get 12-15 total... Screen on for usage, off for a while, back on to email and SMS ect...

I've not used mine for that long, but the Battery Left app(which I found to be quite accurate on my N1) shows that for MY usage, I'll get about 25hrs.

I've got the auto dim turned off, and brightness at max. I mainly use mine for checking emails, txting, and a few games.

Nothing heavy.

I'd recomend the Battery Left app to you guys looking to find out your battery life. You DO have to "train" it though, which requires a 100%-0% run for you.

Guys,

does.anyone know, do we need to cycle the battery to give it the best performance?

Example, charge up the unit, then drain it completely and recharge it again? Like in the old days.

mine hasnt gone down much. I have it unplugged at 6am and at 4pm i still have about 75-80% batt left.

This is with about approx. 2 hrs of talk and 30mins of data usage and voice calls paired to my BT headset. My screen brightness is set to 40%
