BattMonX v2.9 published to the Market

All,

Version 2.9 of BattMonX has been uploaded to the Market. This version includes code to auto-recognize the 1% charge_counter file used on many Motorola phones. It also addresses the product-name changes that CyanogenMod ROMs impose that kept prior versions of this app from recognizing a Moto Droid family phone and auto-identifying their battery status and LED notification files.

Donate version of this app will be uploaded shortly.

Cheers and thanks for everyone's support and kind feedback.

RECENT CHANGES

Version 2.9 - 09-Jul-2011:

- improve auto-identification of charge_counter file (especially for Moto Droid X's running CM7;

this should also help other phones that support the charge_counter file)

- several minor updates and fixes

Version 2.8 - 13-Jun-2011:

- minor fixes to better support Moto Droid phones recent GingerBread 2.3 update:

* auto-recogize GB's different LED directory (w/o needing to manually locate files)

* fix LED-always-on reboot issue for Moto Droid's running GingerBread

* if you have problems or experience unusual issues coming from v2.7, please try an un-install and re-install

Version 2.7 - 22-May-2011:

- revised and improved service start/suspend/shutdown and notification clear handling

- cleanup current settings display and other logged values (especially debugging info)

- lots of minor cleanup and improvements

- turned off debug msg logging by default for fresh installs (option to enable is still present)
[Desire General] syncopy:
HTC Desire, FroYo, unrooted phone..

Is there a FREE app to accomplish this?

Thanks!
[Desire General] kirbz:
Yeah go to contacts > Press menu > Import/Export > select export to SD card that should to it.
[Desire General] mnaeh:
MyPhoneExplorer - http://www.fjsoft.at/en/
[Desire General] Lothaen:
funny as I only found this today...

I had been backing up with htc sync to outlook.

but found when i reimported them in - I was missing 6 contacts.

tried the same with the export/import

all contacts - but it has put a '-' in all the phone numbers

i.e. 07000000000 becomes 070-000-00000

:(
[Desire General] FaithCry:
im pretty sure if you have a google account and you sync your contacts it should be saved in your gmail and then you just sync again after you wipe/flash rom/switch phones (given its android) and it should work.
[Desire General] IVS IVRIS:
To solve your phone number problem.. you should edit your contact and use a +31 (country code) first.. In the future.. this will stay the same when importing.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
Ah - thanks - good tip!
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] slekkas:
Hi,

I just bought a Dell Streak and immidiatelly i upgrated to version 2.2. The problem is that swype does not support Greek language.

I have found the Beta update 2.10 with Greek support but i cannot install it since swype is hardcoded. Is there some file that i can edit to add the Greek support?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] betono:
Download z4root from Market and use it to root your Streak.

Then download Titanium Backup from Market,launch it and enter the application list and click on Swype. Then choose uninstall.

Restart your phone.

Install new Swype
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] slekkas:
Thanks a lot my friend. Worked like a charm.

Since we're at it, is there a post that will help me remove any un-useful apps from the streak using the same method you mentioned?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] HansTWN:
You can use the same method to remove any app. Better back it up first, though, so you can get it back if you later find that you need it.

What other languages are included, does it have Vietnamese and/or Traditional Chinese (the original version has simplified Chinese only)?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denteno:
hey there

i'm on cyanogenmod 6.1 and it has ADW version number 1.1.2

i want to replace it with the newer version from the market

how can i do that with rootexplorer ??
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Overwrite /system/app/ADWLauncher.apk with the newer version.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denteno:
didnt work ,,

it just disappered as if i uninstalled it although its still in system/app/ADWLauncher.apk
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amon_RA:
Delete system/app/ADWLauncher.apk

Delete ADW stuff in dalvik-cache, or complete wipe your dalvik-cache

Push the new ADWLauncher.apk to system/app

reboot
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denteno:
if i wiped dalvik-cache will it affect other apps ???

and by "push"

do you mean just copy the apk and paste it in system/app ??
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denteno:
didnt work !!!

isnt there anyway around it by using terminal or something ?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
I've done this before by just installing the newer version from the market (it actually has a different name for the installed apk), set as default, then uninstall the old version with Titanium...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prettyboy85712:
Mount RW. Overwrite the file. Then select and install it. Exit and reboot. I do it all the time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehgeekguy:
This. You'll have two versions of ADW installed at first, but just remove the old one using TB and you're set.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meechto:
Try this:

Open the Terminal app and run the following commands in it:

su
remount
cp /sdcard/ADW.Launcher.apk /system/app/ADWlauncher.apk
reboot

:)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xyellx:
how about setting the permissions?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dastin1015:
This is how I did it.

0. Make a backup of your original ADWLauncher.apk

1. Download the newest ADW.Launcher from the Market

2. Using Root Explorer, mount as R/W, in /data/app, find the ADW.Launcher apk file

3. Copy and paste the file into /system/app

4. Delete old ADWLauncher.apk

5. Rename copied file to ADWLauncher

6. (If needed) Long press on file and select Permissions, change Permissions to Read: All 3; Write: User

7. Mount back to R/O and exit Root Explorer.

Enjoy. :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billbo1970:
Hello everybody. I've never unlocked, rooted, or done any modding to a phone before... I'm also not much of a unix/linux guy, but have SOME familiarity with it.

OK, so.....

I've been doing some reading around this forum & am still confused about some things, and also have some questions I haven't found answered. I apologize if these have been asked/answered elsewhere, but I have tried searching.

1. Some terms are used in this forum that I am unfamilar with: adw, adm? jig?

2. After flashing to froyo, everyone has the same Android Device ID? So, how do you restore your own ID, I haven't seen this answered anywhere.

3. I've seen people mentioning phone batches... what is this info needed for? Mine is batch 1009 if that matters.

4. OK, so if you screw something up & brick your phone... you can use ODIN w/JF6 to fix this? There is no way to be unable to un-brick your phone, as long as you have ODIN & JF6?

5. I've downloaded the GalaxyS OCR software, but you still need to use another program to flash your ROM file over? Am I understanding this correctly?

6. Where do I get the ROMs for froyo.. and what is the easiest software to use for flashing the rom? I see people mentioning Cognition a lot, but they also mention some others like Axura. Is there a definitive comparison of the various ROMs someplace that I am missing?

Thanks in advance everybody!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Personally... I don't know if everyone should be trying to install custom ROM's on their phones.

Alot of people have too many issues figuring out how to root, sideload enable, and then download ROM Manager to install a custom ROM. Then when things go south they don't know how to restore their phone and end up having to warranty it.

Doing any of the above will immediately void your warranty.

But... with all that said I'm running a "stock" Eclair OTA JH7 right now with a few tweaks - and I really can't say I'm missing all the "Froyo goodness" at the moment.

I've rooted and allowed non-market apps with CLShortfuse's One-Click Root program.

Then I downloaded a Lag Fix (RyanZA's OCLF) from the market... and the phone has been screaming along just fine.

And of course.. GPS still doesn't work - but at this point I'm used to it.

No issues with headphone's not working, or terrible battery drain, or the other myriad of issues you will find by installing the latest and greatest. So... rather than start in with the latest popular ROM - I'd just Root and apply a Lagfix and see how it goes from there. If at that point your really comfortable with flashing a ROM - go for it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billbo1970:
OK, so I've dipped my toe in & rooted the phone using TGA_Gunnman's "GalaxyS_One-Click_Root_All_Models"

According to the program, I'm rooted. Phone rebooted into that recovery mode & I chose "Reinstall all packages".

Phone rebooted as it's supposed to. Went into Market, all seems good, but I can't find this OCLF you mention. Searched on RyanZA, OCLF, and also "lag fix" but don't get any results... ??

Also, The AT&T programs are no longer listed under my applications manager, were they uninstalled by default? I still see a couple of AT&T apps when I go to view all applications, but can't find these apps to uninstall in the app manager section.

Thanks!

Bill
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
OCLF I believe had been taken off the market but I would not suggest using that program for anything other then rooting your f device
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
So it has... whats the deal?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Not sure why it was removed but I only used it as an easy way to root. The lag fix on that app was an ext 2 lag fix that is obsolete. If you are willing to apply a lag fix and want froyo read the cognition, perception, auxura, etc threads in development and decide which one you want.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindbullet:
If you just want your phone to work, I'd suggest just doing one of the lag fixes and staying as "stock" as possible. There's a one-click root/unroot for the captivate for rooting. The rest is up to you. But, for me having exchange support for work is a must and Froyo works perfectly with my company's exchange set up.

If you're a "tinkering" type of person, then go for some custom stuff! I believe best way to learn is just go do it. Read through the development section for a week or so (post your questions in this section though... devs seem to be a little snippy lately) and have fun. Odin has saved me from bricking my device a few times. Like was said before just make sure you download and test working usb drivers and can that you can access your device from windows.

Good luck!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonieryan:
ARG! I flashed Perception build 5 without backing up my original device ID. What is the importance of the device ID?

If I go back to the my stock ROM backed up with ROM Manager, will it still have my original device ID?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
I believe perception 5 generates a random one.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonieryan:
K, thanks, but that still doesn't answer my question regarding the significance/importance of the device ID. How is it used and what is it used for?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
The market and some games access it. So with leaked froyo, when everyone has the same id it causes issues because there can be like a thousand people with the same id trying to download at the same time.

As far as the games,i never had a problem do I can not say which ones and what the issue was
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cappysw10:
AT&T applications are system applications and therefore do not show under the default application manager view. If you are still "stock", you would do Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Press Menu button>Filter>All. This will list all the applications on the phone. Be careful what you try and remove if you do this. Remove the wrong system app and your phone will dump. Most system apps won't let you remove them this way, you would have to use ADB or Titanium Backup to remove.

Search and read. Good Luck!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xredjokerx:
iirc batch 1009 doesnt have download mode.

you should flash the one click that enables the 3 button download mode before you do anything...

then make a jig so that you can recover if anything ever messes up...

then go nuts and flash 10x a day.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billbo1970:
Ah thanks for the info, that shows them. So, I havne't done a thing other than root the phone so far. I've been trying to find the 'lag fix', but haven't been able to. I have however found a lot of posting on how the lag fix makes the phone much faster, but also drains the hell out of the battery. Any opinions on that? That's really all i wanted right now, a faster phone & get rid of some AT&T apps. One of them seems to run all the time (I use my wifi a lot), is it safe to kill AT&T Hot Spots, or will I lose wifi connectivity if I do that?

Bill
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
The only lag fixes out there come with custom roms or kernals. Battery life depends on the rom but common sense would dictate if you are driving 100 mile per hr it will take more gas then going 50

I do not think you will have any issues killing at&t hot spots. It is gone from all custom roms so it can not be too important. Do not mess with anything google especially gtalk
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billbo1970:
Thanks for the info! Well, I've bought the paid version of Titanium Backup & just backed up the phone; and I have Odin w/the correct ROM file, so I may start delving a little deeper into the phone now.

Any suggestions on a ROM for someone that just wants to speed up the phone a bit & lose the ATT bloatware? Don't really care if it's 2.2, I can wait for the official to come out & be ROM'd up by the geniuses here :)

Bill
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
If you do not care about 2.2 a good starter rom would be cognition 2.16. You can get it here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=786532

Click on get cognition here. It will bring you to a page with a bunch of links. Personally I would use the 2.16 without hsupa. If you never use bluetooth then it does not make a difference. This rom uses the voodoo lagfix. The only downfall is that everyone had moved to 2.2 roms do if you post questions in that thread I am not sure you will get much back.

If you are going 2.2 I would read and try this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=856877

Perception is also an option but from what I am reading I would not flash the latest update until it gets worked through some.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billbo1970:
What's huspa?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
I am probably not the best to explain this but it is a faster upload and download capability that us not standard on the Captivate. Meaning if you have it, and the data in your area is strong, you should have a faster download/browser experience

Just one word to say.

[Galaxy 3 Accessories] angry_friend:
Guys you're comparing absolutely different things XD it's a bundle and I wanna say they are pretty good for a bundle, for example when you're byuing a MP3 player in 99 cases out of 100 you can throw away bundle ears even not trying them, they're just to ensure that there IS sound from device XD

UPD and yeah, I prefer to use Cowon iAudio7 + Audiotechinca for music, not a cell phone )

Does anyone use AKG K370 headsets with the i5800? I am looking for some high quality replacement of the bundles, but there are hints on the net that this model doesn't work well with some non-Apple and non-Blackberry headsets (unfortunately no info for Samsung ones).
[Galaxy 3 Accessories] Thom47:
I'm still giving Samsung credit for giving at least this good earphones, which imo aren't that bad. I compared them with Senheister CX300 and EP-830 and can say It's lacking bass, but is superior compared to headphones you usually (those huge non-in-ear headphones that you usually see in nokia phones..)

For the record, I've already RMA'd two EP-830's for being faulty :)

Problems with Zagg Smartbuds

I just bought a pair of Zagg Smartbuds to use with my I5801 as listed here: http://www.fommy.co.uk/view-full-pag...ts&skuno=87340

When I got them, they didn't work in the phone. They did work in every other 3.5 jacked device I had access to. After reading this forum (and others) I am wondering if the Galaxy Apollo has the same 3.5 jack as the Galaxy S.

I don't really want to spend $17 for the adapter only to find out that my phone has a different problem.

Can anyone confirm that the apollo has the same physical plug as the S?
