[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuryriderX:
An even easier way to get the updated gallery (with better resolution photos) is to install SGS Tools (not toolbox, tools), pick 'upgrade stock apps' then 'modded 3d gallery'.

The Email battery drain bug is a known one, maybe try using k9 mail instead? Or you could try the galaxy tab app, it worked fine for me (after a little fiddling, mostly to fix the camera FC issues) but it doesn't support HTML emails, which is a bit disappointing.

Or just set the update interval to something like an hour.

The dialer thing has been bugging me too lately, i havent nailed the problem yet.

Hi people

Today i've tried to flash ClockworkMod recovery in my HTC Legend via Rom Manager. After downloaded recovery, i've rebooted my device and an installation process has completed successfully. I realize that ClockworkMod Recovery has been installed and running well.

I reboot to recovery again and i see that CWmod recovery is vanished!!! :eek:

The original recovery of Legend is here!

What happened??? how can i flash a custom recovery permanently in Legend??? :confused:

If it's possible, what recovery you advise me?

PS: My phone is rooted and i install custom roms via R4-Legend-Root tool.
[Legend Android Development] BlaY0:
I'll tell you what happened... this has been explained like a gazillion of times and you happened to find nothing about it on the interwebz...
[Legend Android Development] WaveMaster1406:
If I well understood it is impossible to flash a permanent recovery in the Legend. But a temporary recovery is possible via Rom Manager! Right?
[Legend Android Development] Dr.Romca:
If you need to have the recovery any time in your phone and you don't need ROM manader, you can try this:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Product F(RED):
You can't 4G on Verizon. It uses LTE and the Evo uses WiMax. Not only that, LTE requires a SIM card. Roaming on Verizon is generally a bit slower but not noticeably unless you're streaming something or tethering.

OK...I know noone's gonna wanna hear this. I talked my wife into buying Touch Pro 2 for her and myself. Everything mostly works well. With the new Opera 10 I can at least see YouTube videos. However, my wife really wants to be able to play farmville, frontierville, whateverville on facebook. Does anyone know if any browsers will support this?

Secondly. On the "Internet" page of the SenseUI, there are 4 bookmarks. She and I have the same. Is there any way to change these bookmarks? Is there anyway to set it so they're changeable at will? I did attempt to search for this here, but the options suggested aren't the same on my phone. On my "internet" page, I have bookmarks and browser as softkey options. Not "options" or "menu." Any help would be wholeheartedly appreciated!

[Desire General] supasye:
hi, my mums has a legend on vodafone, and she recently got an update..

the reason i am a bit jealous is because it seems to be faster than my phone! a desire!

when she clicks on an app or something there is like a zoom animation when it opens the app, which looks really nice and smooth..

i checked me settings for animations and it says all animations shown.. but i dont get that, does anyone know how to do it?? or if it can..

thanks..
[Desire General] st0kes:
for some reason you don't get those zoom transition animations with HTC Sense turned on. But if you install a different launcher (like Launcher Pro) you do get the animations.

Trust me, or not... but unless you have done something really strange, your desire is notably faster than her legend.

this legend was always slower than my desire, it then got the 2.2 update, and it was still not as good, but ever since its latest update, it is imho smoother than my desire and those animated transitions look suavvvvvve!!!

i want this sense on my desire!! it is a vodafone legend, mine is a stock desire, with latest stock rom, nothing fancy done to it!
[Desire General] truegrace:
The other half has a legend and with the latest update and it seems Vodafone have really got the phone working smooth.

Of course its not as nice as the desire, but it is a vast improvement that has def closed a lot of the gap between the 2 handsets.

Just need voda to work their magic on the desire now :p

I have a problem that I don't know if I can do anything about. My computers are all linux or mac OS.

I was looking on the samsung site for Kies software for mac and I can't find anything, is there a software version for mac or something similar out there?
[Galaxy Tab General] knightnz:
There is nothing. Kies is not particularly useful with the tab anyway other than potentially for updating firmware, for that you'll unfortunately need to find a Windows machine to run the app on. All of the other Tab-related functionality of Kies can be duplicated using apps from the android market.

[G Tablet General] libzhark:
Does the stock firmware (or any custom firmware) support the standard android AP/hotspot functionality? Anyone know what wifi chipset is in the G Tablet?
[G Tablet General] grimsocks:
Hey community, I have just picked up one of these tablets in the hopes that I can use it for some slick new ways of remote desktop and various other work/play related functions.

I've been reading the forums here for the G the past two straight days. I tried flashing my system to TnT 2.0 found on the forums by the one and only Roebeet, Alternate GTab Firmware - TnT Lite (stock based, adds the Marketplace), but I am having issues.

First off I'm wondering if when you say root do you mean inside the /sdcard folder? because that is where Windows 7 is defaulting me to when I mount the drive. This I feel is the cause of all my issues because I thought the update.zip and /recovery were supposed to be on root. Maybe I'm just confused and need some explanation.

If there is a thread I missed that explains all this for a newbie let me know.

Thanks XDA community!
[G Tablet General] Crimton:
yes the root is what pops up when you mount it to the computer, just copy and paste. root means do not put in another folder just on /sdcard
[G Tablet General] TeamSpeed:
I'm a newb here, but live in an AIX environment, so I hope to help.

System root is /

The onboard storage (16gb) is mounted as /sdcard

The user micro slot is mounted as /sdcard2 (side note: hoping I can get the vold.fstab to mount sdcard2 under sdcard)

I believe from reading through the TnTLight thread, that you want to put the files under /sdcard, not system root.

Somebody will correct me in short order I am sure. :)
[G Tablet General] scmobileman:
That's correct. Root is / but you want the upgrade files and folders in the /sdcard directory.
[G Tablet General] grimsocks:
Ok thank you all for tha clarification. I am following the direction correctly then. I have placed the two files into the correct 'root' directory and when I hold down power and volume ^ it does start to run the flash, but then it simply shows me the ! in the triangle and restarts. When I go in to look for the files I put there they aren't there.

Should I try and just use Clockworkmod? Or maybe someone who isn't a programmer has made this work and has some more helpful hints. I am in this communities debt as I really want this to be a cool tool/toy for me but if I can't do what I need to I'll bring it back.
[G Tablet General] jacindc:
Did you unzip the file you downloaded from the link here? So that you have both an update.zip file and a recovery folder? Sometimes people just rename the downloaded file update.zip and put it on their sdcard, and then get the exclamation point. The download file needs to be extracted first, to give you an update.zip file and a recovery folder, which you then copy to /sdcard (which will look like the root directory when browsing in Windows).
[G Tablet General] grimsocks:
Great question Jacindc, and yes I have extracted the 2 files update.zip and /recovery to the root of my tablet. I am trying to remove and set my G back to some factory base to try this process again. Let me ask you a question in return. Can i use the built in ES file explorer for this process or should I use Astro or does it not matter?

Also what are these files? DiskCacheIndex11214.tmp I have several of them in root and I'm not sure if they are from my mess ups or what.

Ok update, I've found a /mnt dir on the root and inside there are duplicate folders that exist on root such as /sdcard, /sdcard2, /asec, /secure and /usbdisk....I'm confused why there is this duplication. I guess I must confess I attempted to root the G using; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=843376 but when I tried to then run Titanium backup it would say no root access and I didn't see the superuser app in the drawer like I did on my Moto droid when I rooted that.

Wondering if I should try a complete wipe and type using the vanilla loader found on the forums...another question, does Windows 7 recognize your device as an Nvidia Harmony?

Last edit/update for tonight me thinks...it would seem I've borked it pretty bad because I can't get the thing to copy any files over. It says I have in Windows, so I safely remove hardware, and then unmount and go look in the download dir or the root and nothing...so not sure what I did but lol I got this one I'll return it and get another to try again I guess.

How to install TNT Lite 2.0 or Cyamogen

Hi Everyone,

I just bought an Viewsonic G-Tablet with Android 2.2 and the latest update from the official site. I'm some kind of disappointed with the interface. From what I have read I can install other stuff on it with best and quicker interface.

I'm very familiar with PC & Mac's OS, but with the Android I feel like a dummy.

I would greatly appreciate if:

1-you tell me which one is better?

2-give me cleared & details instructions on how to do it.

Please do me this favor, because I feel like this tablet is a good tools and I wish to keep it.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badaphooko01:
I currently have a FFC modded vibrant and its acting up. I know this is an issue with some phones where it thinks the usb cable is plugged in when its not.

This just started happening yesterday after getting the phone on the day it was released. I have Odined back to stock, changed usb settings and multiple reboots the problem still exists in addition it needs to be plugged in to boot up. I got on the phone with TM and they thought it would be a good idea to replace it. So the rep proceeded to give me all the terms and asked me to give her the IME number and so forth. I then turned the phone back on and now its working fine. The replacement phone is on its way already. When she was reading me the terms she specified if the phone is damaged in anyway I will be charged $400+ for it and by doing this I have waived them replacing it for the insurance deductible.

Has anybody successfully covered that hole up so its not noticeable? And what steps were taken?

Should i just take a chance with my current phone and keep it although the problem might come back?

EDIT: It just started happening again after plugging it in with the official cable which feels kinda loose, I used a BlackBerry one which feels nice and tight right before and it was fine.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willsnews:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YodaEXE:
You opened the phone, which voided the warranty. I can't see any way of you easily covering the hole in a way that they won't notice it. You're likely going to be coughing up the $400.

Daily, my Gmail will no longer sync with the web version and even though the mobile inbox shows no literally unread messages, the counter will have a number above 0. I am able to clear this by working in the web inbox but should not have to.

I have read everywhere that the solution seems to be clearing the data and cache from the application Gmail Storage but I do not have this application listed under Settings - Applications - All.

I have a HTC Hero CDMA currently running CM6.0 with the latest version of Gapps flashed (gapps-mdpi-20101020-signed.zip). I restored my nandroid of my stock rom and was able to see Gmail Storage. Using Titanium Backup, I backed up just the Gmail Storage portion but was unable to install it due to it being a .tar. I did find out that Gmail Storage corresponds to the file GmailProvider.apk. The latest Gapps zips listed do not contain the GmailProvider.apk.

I have tried manually installing the GmailProvider.apk and also using Terminal Emulator to copy the file from my SD card into /system/app. I was able to get the apk visible in /system/app but after reboot, I was still unable to see Gmail Storage in my applications list.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I am missing? Do the new versions of Gapps no longer use the GmailProvider.apk for installing/running Gmail Storage?

Thank you for any help anyone can offer.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] matt2053:
I am bumping this because I am having the same issue.

I receive Gmail messages fine. I can read them and everything.

However, when I archive them, they disappear from the inbox view but the counter still includes them. And if I log in to Gmail.com on the web, I can see the "archived" messages still sitting in my inbox marked Unread.

Also, sending messages from the application doesn't work. They just sit in my outbox.

The application is behaving as if it can only read my Gmail account, and cannot create or modify. It's really weird and any help would be greatly appreciated.
