[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Ok I'll help you out here. Search for "slide ROM bible". In there is a link to the thread telling people how to flash the ENG build. It's broken down barney style so it's easy to understand. Most of the stuff you see flashing up is normal and the version difference is normal too, you have to do something special to make it work. So read it, love it, worship it. It's the bible for this phone.

Btw, you're phone isn't bricked. If it were, you wouldn't even get to the splash screen - let alone fastboot and recovery. Trust me, I have a few paperweights so I know a brick when I see it.

One last thing, flashing the clockwork recovery update.zip WILL NOT WORK UNLESS YOU HAVE ALREADY FLASHED THE ENG BUILD. That's why it failed. Flashing a custom rom won't work either. The only way to do it without the ENG build is via adb and catching it in recovery, very hard task. The ENG build resolves that and removes the signature check allowing you to flash things without adb.

hi . honesty i dont know what to do

do you have any link for this bible rom

I've been tryin 2 get him 2 work the eng build but It didn't work 4 him. Hopefully u can help KCRic
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] correzzola:
yup doeasnt work
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Here is the link on how to flash the ENG build. Make sure you know where the ENG build zip is after you download it, I suggest putting it in your android sdk tools directory (less typing). Then follow the instructions and you should be up in running in no time. Let me know if you have any ?'s.

Oh, this is the link to the youtube tutorial, thought it might help.
[Desire General] arrtoo:
Hey.

I got my desire 2 days ago.

Can I update from htc software (sync) or do I have to update from Rom?

Is the Droidleak Rom or what its called better than stock 2.2 sense(the one with 100 users in Rom vote)?

Will 2.3 come from htc or only from xda in Rom?

I previously owned x10i and is therefore new to the whole Rom thing:)
[Desire General] AndroHero:
the only 2 ways you can update roms are.

1) unrooted users can download and install ota (over the air) updates straight from the phone.

2) rooted users can just donwlad the lastest custom roms with the updates included.

there is maybe a 1% chance that htc will officialy release gingerbread for the desire, although its almost certain that we will be amoungst the first devices to get custom gingerbread roms, just because the desire is almost exactly the same as the N1, which untill the Samsung N2S is released, is the official google developer phone.
[Desire General] arrtoo:
Tnx. I think I understand now.

Should I bother installing roms before gingerbread, is it a performance jump?
[Desire General] AndroHero:
i think the performance boost came in froyo, gingerbred is more of a visual upgrade than a perfomance one.
[Desire General] arrtoo:
I ment:

is it better to use ROM from android development or just use stock sense, which came with my phone until gingerbread is rolled out?

I think the sense firmware (2.2) that came with my phone is fast enough, the only things i would like to achieve with a ROM is better battery life, and is there any new features or something? (i see that hotspot is in my phone as default(NICE:))

tnx for helping a newbie to desire out:)
[Desire General] chichoko:
The only reason I have found to instal a custom ROM is because of the APP2SD+ which gives much more space for apps.. i tried new kernels and hacks but nothing proved to me that indeed i have more juice in it :P You can root just for the heck of it in order to experiment for yourself :)

lol, yeah, just like a boss. although i didnt have the slightest clue how to even open the command window at first, that tutorial is serious!! dont let it discourage u, just follow step by step and u'll be a boss too. im using fresh right now, but ima prob have tried at least 5 roms by tom. oh, i do have a quest..... i thought the mms limit was supposed to be removed?? is that the 160 character limit?? cause i'm still limited to 160.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
nah mms is for pictures. u used to not b able to send much over 2mb, but now its 5mb, and it isnt even compressed to a slideshow format unless its over that. not bad huh.

like a boss is definitely the best. thats what im building my kit off of.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mynigman:
theres no roms with a hack for that 160 character limit??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
no. either way, if you go over the phone just sends it in 2 or more parts. same end result.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirprevost:
what can i do to receive media messages again? i rooted to TAZZ Vanilla 20 and every time someone sends a mms all i get is a pic with a status bar. please help.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenzomonk:
your best bet would be to ask Tazz in the TV20 thread :)

tazz may have missed the MMS, but you should ask to verify. if that doesn't work, download the attached, and then use APN Backup & Restore (in market).

should fix your problem ;)

(you will have to download the app, then make a backup, then copy the contents of the zip into the backup folder on your SDCard... then restore).
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirprevost:
I sent tazz a help message. i did like you said just now but didnt know what i was looking at or for. can you give me a little more detail or a link please. thanks
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenzomonk:
(thought i did a good job in previous post... LOL).

download the zip file i attached in previous post. keep it somewhere handy (we'll come back to this).

- go to the Market, and search for "APN backup" - it will be the first returned result (APN Backup & Restore - by Ritesh Sahu).

- after app installs, open it up and choose to create a "backup" of your current APNs.

- after this is done, on your SDCard (you will have to mount as USB), you will have an "APN Backup" folder. take the zip file (Ivan's APNs) and unzip into this folder.

- go back to APN Backup & Restore and choose to "restore" APNs. choose the "ivans" file that you just copied into this folder.

- reboot and you should be good to go!

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nickster08:
I think it would be cool to have a screensaver while the phone is charging. I wouldn't know how to start something like this but I was thinking something like the clock app (not widget) when you press the moon button underneath the clock. Just an idea.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] ahensler05:
Try alarm clock plus v2 it has a "start selected app on plug in" feature that may do what youre looking for. You will have to check in the auto start menu or whatever it is , there's an option to select screen saver mode for when the clock app is open then just select alarm clock plus to start when you plug it in. sorry if that's vague, its pretty user friendly. Make sure you use plug in times, thay easy you can set it to only activate on selected hours.
[XPERIA X10 General] tinythetiger:
Hi Everyone,

I was just wondering if anybody knows if, when performing a factory data reset, where the stock apps are installed from? I know there are .apk files in system/app/

There was a time where I reset and superuser was still on the mainscreen, which was solved by deleting superuser.apk from this folder. However putting on the other things I had removed (moxier.apk) didn't result in the phone installing moxier on factory data reset.

Does anyone know how the phone installs things on factory data reset, i.e. where .apk has to be and if there's a script that needs to be changed to tell it to install the additional .apk ?
[Venue Pro General] 937dytboi:
We all have heard many speculation dates of the release of DVP. But I think i remember someone saying something about them possibly releasing the DVP the first week of December. Hopefully its between Dec1-4 because I will be out of the country for about a week after the 4th. Dell is suppose to call me when the DVP is availble for purchase sure hope its not when im on my cruise.
[Venue Pro General] Peew971:
To be honest, one week is all I will give Dell now. At least they should have made an announcement, that's not a good way to treat customers. If it's not realised/dated by the end of next week I'll go and get the HD7 or Omnia 7 :mad:.
[Venue Pro General] ratchetjaw:
I sure hope so. After all the wait I really thought hey, they will release it on black Friday ( US) biggest shopping day but nothing. They really made a mess of this. I truly wish another company would release a portrait slide and take all the customers. Dell doesn't deserve it. The form factor is highly desirable hence So many of us continue to wait.
[Venue Pro General] 937dytboi:
just read a thread over on direct2dell saying the dell team is going to overlook some more issues this coming monday. so im not expecting this device to release for the next 2-3 weeks, which sucks. im not getting an hd7. so i figure i wait till they get these issues fixed.
[Venue Pro General] Razorfold:
Do you have a link? Because the last thread I can find regarding the DVP, was the one from like a week or so ago saying they're looking into issues.

[Venue Pro General] pNoyr3D:
I have been playing with the DELL VENUE PRO almost every day I worked. They setup a kiosk at Orland Mall in Orland Park, IL about 2 weeks ago. I asked them for a release date then & they said 1st week of December.

Like I said in the other thread, I ****ing LOVE the phone, ****s amazing.
[Venue Pro General] 937dytboi:
well if thats true, im definately looking forward for the release, only thing that sucks is that I will be on a cruise the first week of December. Hopefully I can order it online in the internet cafe on the boat. I will be checking everyday on my cruise to see if they released it.
[Venue Pro General] 937dytboi:
now when they said the 1st week of December was this before or after the sim card issue
[Venue Pro General] gshocker:
I just talked to the local MS store here and they said they knew they were getting them again but did not know if it would be before Christmas or after the first of the year. Since the ISM card issue they have not heard anything at all from Dell about the phone.

Not the best of news for getting it soon but hopefully Dell is taking the time to get it right before sending out any more units.
[Venue Pro General] 937dytboi:
Truth, they cant afford anymore mishaps at this time, to many people riding on DVP. People want a diffrent device and the DVP is the one.

But all I have is time and im going to wait to see what the DVP is about or what Sprint has to offer
[Venue Pro General] pNoyr3D:
During, lol.

Just got this email from one of the DELL Reps that has me on their phone list to call when it comes available.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glostix:
Happy Thanksgiving guys! Been thankful for the helpful tips and tricks with my lovely X1 I bought last year's Black Friday event!

Quick question.

How do I get Cookie's Home Tab to work on my Win6.1 platform? I read on that you need Manila or Sense 2.5, any download links for those will help. Search function, yes, but I dont know which one pertaining to 6.1!

Thanks in advance
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] louis0815:
Maybe I'm wrong but I guess you'll need to flash another ROM incl. Sense... AFAIK Sense is not available as "installable application".

1. hardSPL

2. download new ROM (e.g. Energy ROM, see link in my signature)

3. flash from SD (instructions here)

^Thanks, just got it done yesterday. Installed Valkyrie rom, but it came with outdated 1.8 ver. instead of 2.0 D:
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Black'd:
Valkyrie is a bit dead rom meaning that agent is developing only if major updates take place. I was ex-valkyrie-fun. However I believe that he has released a rom with cht2 (at least beta version).

why dont u try energy rom? it has for sure what you need...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glostix:
I switched from Valkyrie to 826x. 826x had no additional add-ons, just the ROM upgrade, so it was really convenient to switch. Now running CHT + Editor 2.0.0.

[EVO 4G General] kenfly:
Is there any way to see if the wifi is connected via b,g,or n?
[EVO 4G General] cruise350:
It will connect via G if the router is G or N it will connect via B if the router is B. The Evo is capable of N but I believe you have to install the N hack in order for it to work. I don't now if any rom builders include the wireless N hack in their roms or not.
[EVO 4G General] tf2d:
if you load a ROM that is 2.2 Froyo, its has the feature built-in, no hack neccessary.
[EVO 4G General] creyc:
It doesn't specifically state the type, but when you go to wifi settings and click the network you're connected to it will list the speed of the connection, which can help you determine what kind of network it is.

802.11B - 11 Mbit/s

802.11G - 54 Mbit/s

802.11N - ~160 Mbit/s
[EVO 4G General] drmacinyasha:
Actually, depending on the 802.11n network, it may say only 65Mbps.
[EVO 4G General] creyc:
True, perhaps a better indication of "N" would be to say >54 Mbit/sec.

I rarely get more than 65 Mbit/sec on my Netgear access point at home, but the fact it's more than 54 indicates it is operating on "N".
[EVO 4G General] skydeaner:
The phone doesn't allow a connection over 65mbits. I have multiple wireless N routers and have never seen a connection greater than that. It gets kinda annoying. My internet has peaks faster than that lol. I get peaks up to 100mbit on my comcast connection and a constant 50mbits that sometimes i dont even get on my phone. Granted it only matters while downloading roms and other larger files lol. Or transferring movies to and fro for my kids to watch on roadtrips and such.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] konsultex:
I have a complete backup a little over 1 week old of my previous i-Mate PDA2k which holds over 10 years of appointments, contacts, etc. which I migrated from device to device over the years. My backup was made with the x-Backup application to an external memory card and the file CompactFlashBackUpNew has 97.2 mb. This device had the original rom and the operating system in English.It was purchased in 12/2004.

Last week I lost this PDA2K in a taxi so I shopped around (in Brazil) for a similar used device and was able to find a QTEK 9090, unfortunately no PDA2K showed up. This device has the original rom but the operating system is in Portuguese (rom version 1.40.15 PTB 3/11/2005). When I start the restore from the external memory card I notice that required space says 100299.17 KB (this looks ok) but the available space says 64396 KB which is of course much less. Since the device has 128 mb ram it's strange. I checked the memory settings and it shows that it has 125.77 mb main memory. I found with the old PDA2K that you can't really trust x-Backup, especially the percentages on the progress bar, so I went ahead anyway.

My problem is that after the restore finishes, the device doesn't work because no applications can run, not even the file manager. Just the configurations work.

I noticed in the configuration system screen that some icons are in English and some in Portuguese so my hunch is that both versions of the OS are there together and so take up much more room. I also tried to restore using the option "only contacts and appointments" but in this case the "start" button is disabled and the required and available space information says "none". However if I try to make a backup only of contacts and appointments it lets me do it. So right now I'm wondering hos to get my data back.

I thouhgt of flashing a rom in English but would like to avoid that if possible since it might also not help.

Any ideas of how I could go about restoring my backup?

I also have a QTEK s9100 (OS in Portuguese) available but on this one there is no x-Backup because it has a completely different version of Windows so that's the reason I went for the 9090.

Thanks.
