sit tight mate, they (Jerpelea) is about to release v5 of his AOSP 2.1 ROM - and he says that the dialler is working.

also, thank you for not posting in the DEV thread!!! you have no idea how frustrating it is looking for bug reports in that thread now - i feel so sorry for J and Z

edit: just re-read your first post. Are you sure u need to keep mediascape? there are better alternatives that are provided in vanilla (AOSP) android, that do not get so intrusive in the system. The AOSP rom is a complete flash, so you have to choose to use it or something else.

The full, light and ultralight are NOT AOSP ROMS either so you know, they are customised SE roms that can be used with Zdzihu's recovery menu. These CAN be used with your existing ROM in a way, but you will need to juggle backups and image files. can be done, but takes about 10 minutes to change. Safe and works, but a little clunky :)
[XPERIA X10 General] PoTi_96:
First of all, backup everything u want! Titanium backup ot even the .apk on ur SD or PC

I am running both...

2.1 custom AND 2.2 custom, i cant make any calls on 2.1 -> reboot to 2.2

Cant take pics from camera -> reboot to 2.1

...

It works fine for me

My quadrant results:

2.1 ~720

2.2 ~2200

Thx for posting a new thread and not spamming the dev thread... ;)

Edit: yes, u can go back to original SE rom, just use the link for the .504 version in the first post of 2.1 custom rom thread
[XPERIA X10 General] gohwh1:
@mrtim123 : Thanks but can you futher explain what you mean recovery menu? So you meaning the ASOP will replace the current ROM while the customised SE roms can be use with the current ROM anytime?

From the custom ROM ASOP thread,

They stated:

Not working

-video playback is not using hardware decoder for some formats

-camera settings crashes

So the dailer is already working?

And will remove mediascape result in problems in the future? Heard from some thread that it will result in problems.

@PoTi_96 : It's kind of hazzle to change here change there. I prefer one ROM rather than 2.
[XPERIA X10 General] PoTi_96:
I know but the dialer wasnt fixed, now im just running 2.1
[XPERIA X10 General] mauk:
I installed asop 2.1 ver b006 last night and now i have about 17 hours of usage. I belive that it is almost a rom for a dayly use. Bugs i experienced so far are camera settinhs giving FC, some minor problems with downloads on build in browser,all fixed with opera. It comes half rooted but can easy root with z4root app, i could not find the gallery but after instaling the app from this forum ( gallery 3d) i am more sattisfied then with mediascape timescape or any other SE program. I find it verry snappy and belive you should try it after a backup with titanium. Another beautifull app is the recovery.menu witch is the best. All the best
[XPERIA X10 General] gohwh1:
Pardon, I have no clue when coming to such things. Correct me if I'm wrong.

The recovery.menu is it a kind of application that help you flash your phone? So I have to keep pressing back when the Sony logo came out to go into recovery mode and install the ASOP ROM? And the Global ROM is to revert back? So I had to install both ROM?

However since stated that it's not possible to call people, how is it possible that the ASOP can be used for daily. I don't mind about the camera since I don't really use it.

P.S I already download the ASOP ROM for the main thread.
[XPERIA X10 General] Tony_C:
The recovery.menu is it a kind of application that help you flash your phone? YES, THOUGH NOT REALLY A FLASH DO NOT NEED PC

So I have to keep pressing back when the Sony logo came out to go into recovery mode ABOUT 5 TIMES

and install the ASOP ROM? YES, AS UPDATE.ZIP

And the Global ROM is to revert back? BACKUP FIRST

So I had to install both ROM? YES, NOW YOU CAN SWITCH BETWEEN

However since stated that it's not possible to call people, how is it possible that the ASOP can be used for daily. WORKS ON LATEST RELEASE

I don't mind about the camera since I don't really use it.

P.S I already download the ASOP ROM for the main thread.
[XPERIA X10 General] gohwh1:
Thank you for your reply. One more question before I start on it. So when you say switch between, when I switch will it remain the same or it will be a completely fresh ROM?

For example I now using ASOP ROM and wan switch to the original ROM and if i decide to go back ASOP, will all settings be gone?
[XPERIA X10 General] Tony_C:
When you restore, you will get back state you were in at backup. Same settings, same apps.
[XPERIA X10 General] gohwh1:
So meaning, I can keep the setting of the current Sony ROM. So if i chage to ASOP and decide to change back I can have the same settings?

And if i decided not to use ASOP anymore, I can just delete both the original and ASOP ROM at my SD card?
[XPERIA X10 General] DangerPanda:
You must back up first though.
[XPERIA X10 General] gohwh1:
I cant install the ASOP. When I select "Install update.zip from SD Card"

It say " E:Cant open /sdcard/update.zip (No such file or directory)."

Go into settings then applications the manage applications click on the app you wan5t to move and if it is possible, the. App will give you the option to move it to the sd card
[Epic 4G General] raylusk:
Go to settings, applications, manage applications. Select the application you want to move and if it can be moved to your sd card it will give you that option. I don't recall the names of them but there are applications in the market that list which applications you have that can be moved and will help you do that.
[Epic 4G General] Top Nurse:
Titanium Backup will allow you to move almost all of your user apps onto the SD regardless of whether the developer wanted it or not. Highly recommend you use the "Pro" version or it may take a while to process.
[Epic 4G General] socos25:
I will have to check out that titanium backup.. Is it a paid app?

[Epic 4G General] m5james:
Don't supposed you'd be willing to PM me on how to use TB? I've downloaded the most recent version of Pro I could get my hands on, but I'm not sure where to go from there.
[Epic 4G General] antila:
Menu > Batch
[Epic 4G General] dwallersv:
What Top Nurse said. You can move many more apps with TB than with the "standard" mechanism in settings.

To move an app individually, press-hold the app in the backup list, and a context menu will pop up. If TB thinks it can move the app, the move to SD button will be available.

Or, as mentioned above, you can have all the eligible apps moved via a batch operation.

[Epic 4G General] m5james:
At the moment I'm using 329.17mb of 484.80mb on the phone, then 12.09gb of 14.73mb on my SD card. I recently changed over from Syndicate Frozen to Bonzai4All and my phone is plenty snappy. I've got a handful of apps running via SD through AppMonster telling me that I can have them running from there as I installed them. I don't know if there is a standard or recommendation as to how much memory on the phone itself I should keep free, but as far as I can tell, I'm not experiencing any lagging issues whatsoever. No offense again Syndicate (was running 1.0.1, then 1.0.2 came out after I swtiched to Bonsai) but Bonsai is definately faster and the transition couldn't have been easier.
[Epic 4G General] splashmktg:
I just installed my first custom rom on my epic. It was Bonsaii4all 3.01. It is a wonderful rom.

I was a flashaholic with my Touch Pro2 (Go EnergyRoms) but have had trouble rooting my Epic. Finally got the drivers to recognize my phone and I'm lovin the change. I use App2sd to put apps on SD but I'mm going to try Titanium as I have that already. Rom Manager sometimes freezes my phone.
[Epic 4G General] SubnetMask:
Dumb question: when you install apps to the sd card, if/when you wipe your phone, will it automatically find them and set them up, or do they have to be reinstalled or restored?

battery profiling

We've been working on this exact problem at little eye labs. We've built a performance analysis and debugging tool that does battery, memory, CPU and data profiling for android apps.

Its a commercial app, but in beta right now so free to download for now. littleeye.co
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xenoism:
Some good ones are:

Betterbatterystats

SystemPanel

CPU Spy

I tend to use these together to develop a comprehensive view. First checking CPUspy to determine to what extent my device is sleeping properly, and if it is not, checking either SystemPanel to determine what if it's an app or a process, and then Betterbatterystats for more detail.

Thank you for all your time and consideration.

[Desire HD General] Neurosis:
Hi Guys,

I just got my DHD last night, i manage to transfer all my contacts from my HD2 to my phone, but i'm unable to sync it with my gmail acct. pls some kind soul help me, i really dunno what to do now.
[Desire HD General] f9cator:
Try Contact2Sim app and see if that helps.
[Desire HD General] cattleprod:
you could try exporting the contacts list from the HD2 to the sdcard on your HD2 and moving that contact list to your DHD sdcard.

on your DHD go to contacts > import/export > import from sdcard, select the contact list from HD2, it will ask you which gmail account to create it under select which one . then it sould sync with that account now.

when looking for contact list it will look something like 0001.vcf or what ever you have name it but file extension is .vcf

hope that helps

Has anyone done this on a legend before? I've been googling and reading all the different ways but none of them seem to work on the legend.

Already tried clearing gmail cache. Google apps wont let me clear it's cache. There's no data.img that I can see on my SD card/I can't remove my google account from "Accounts & Sync" and I can't just add a new google account, I get a "Cannot establish a reliable connection the server" error, even on wifi.

Just migrated all my google account onto my google apps account and of all things to not work my android is the last thing.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] JonSolo:
I am not sure where deadmansink is going with his cryptic answer (that thread has nothing to do with booting to Android, and who the hell knows what "secret" info is), but the easy answer to your issue is to delete the data.img file from your SD card. It will be found in the \Android folder. You can do this from WinMo or from your computer if you have a card reader.

Reboot the phone. Give it time to boot up to create a new data.img.

Then it will be as if there was a fresh install of Android.

No need to down-grade help. The "secret" is just all the extra info that people give in their signature, as well as links. I don't feel that "all he needs to do is replace the data.img" as he doesn't like the WMRom. It sounds like he would like a fresh start and that's where I directed him.

The worst part about flashing new ROMs is that I have to sign into my Google account to get Titanium Backup installed.

I found a direct download link for it but it's a zip file and flashing it in Clockwork Recovery did nothing. Does anyone have a way that I can get either an apk or a flashable zip of Titanium Backup? I'd also like ROM Manager, but that's not really important if I have TB.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devnulldroid:
Guess I am spoiled by some devs around the place as they put it in with ROM. One of the things I look for when I check out another ROM. If it has these..I look deeper into it...if not..I hesitate and most of the time move on. There has to be something else that really grabs my attention for me to try a ROM missing what I call basic everyday tools. To me... these and some other apps are basic yet essential tools for all ROMs...just my opinion.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kd0axs:
Honestly, I don't see why you wouldn't want to sign in to your Google account. That's part of Android's basic functionality, and if you want to download any apps from the market you will have to sign in anyways.

If you really want a copy of the apk, first get the app from the market. Then use Root Explorer to go in and make your own copy of the apk and paste it to your SD card. Then you won't have to sign in to install it anymore as long as the ROM you are flashing includes some sort of file manager.

It's not that I don't want to sign into my account, but why type in all my details when they're stored in TB already? If I can just install that, I just do a batch restore and I'm done.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinlferguson:
Hello everyone.

Has anyone seen this?

I installed Cyanogen 6.1.0-RC2 on my Inc. and everything seems goo i have no problems and found i like this rom allot.

I then decided to downgrade to the latest Stable release 6.0.2 as per ROM Manager and at first all looked to be good until i tried to activate the usb storage so i can transfer files onto the phone. When i tried to do this the External SD card is fine but my PC asks me to format my Internal storage and im like... wtf???... eek! ROM Manager Restore back to RC2

Android:2.2.1

Baseband:2.15.00.07.28

Kernel:2.6.32.15

Build:FRG83

[Nook Color General] Thibor69:
I have a 1 gig card to use in my rooted NC. Do I need to format it some special way ? I have it formated as NTFS but I can not read it with ASTRO. It should be listed under sdcard right ? but I dont see it.

Help!
[Nook Color General] starlabs:
From what I've read on the Nook Color spec, it supports the FAT32 filesystem.

Try formatting your microSD card to that (or use the Nook to format the sd card directly)
[Nook Color General] lbascones:
Yup, FAT32 will work if what you have is a PC. There may be some UNIX filesystem format that's supported too, but for a 1 GB card, FAT32 is enough with its 4 GB file size limitation.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kambiz.aghaiepour:
I recently came across a couple of threads in which it seems it was desirable (for some) to run the stock kernel, but with the ice glacier ROM. There were a couple of methods that I saw, neither of which seemed to work for me (one was an update kernel zip file package to be applied from recovery mode from the sdcard, and the other was more involved (see THISthread). The kernel provided in that thread is actually not the true STOCK kernel, as best as I can tell. It is likely equivalent, but uname -r still returns a Gr8gorilla lable.

So I decided to try the following method. First, if you have a nandroid/clockwork recovery backup of your device before installing ice, then you already have everything you need to revert to the stock kernel. Here is the procedure.

1) reboot phone into recovery

2) go into backup and restore

3) select advanced restore

4) select the very first backup set (the stock, probably first rooted one).

5) select restore boot partition

After this completes, you'll have ice but with stock kernel. However, your wireless will not work until you place the correct kernel module file corresponding to your kernel (bcm4329.ko) in the /system/lib/modules directory. In your nandroid backup set, there is a system.img file. Transfer this file to your computer, and use unyaffs to extract its contents and look for lib/modules/bcm4329.ko

6) while in recovery mode, make sure to mount /system

7) remove or rename the /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko file

8) adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko

9) unmount /system from recovery, and reboot.

That's it. I tested this and ended up seeing:

Linux localhost 2.6.32.21-g899d047 #1 PREEMPT Tue Oct 26 16:10:01 CST 2010 armv7l GNU/Linux

and my wireless was working just fine. I have attached the wireless kernel module corresponding with stock kernel, and I have attached the boot.img from stock, in case you're reading this, and by some strange reason, you don't actually have an original backup.

I don't personally plan on running stock kernel, I just wanted to see if I _could_ if I wanted to.

Hope you find this useful.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] kambiz.aghaiepour:
One thing I noted btw, is that after doing this, when I did adb shell, it dropped me into a non-root shell by default, and I had to type "su" or "su - " to gain root. The other thing to note, is that the stock initrd, has the following default.prop entry:

ro.secure=1

whereas ice has:

ro.secure=0

What does this mean?! (besides double rainbow all the way across the sky)?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] grankin01:
Setting ro.secure=0 allows adb root functions to work.

My MyGlacier 4G MINE!!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kambiz.aghaiepour:
Right. That's what I thought. But I have to say, it seemed to work anyway, because I did:

$ su -

# mount -o remount,rw /system

and then

# cd /system/lib/modules

# mv bcm4329.ko bcm4329.ko.ice

# cp /sdcard/stock-bcm4329.ko bcm4329.ko

# chmod 644 bcm4329.ko

# cd /

# mount -o remount,ro /system

Then I rebooted, and the "stock" driver file that I just put in place was persistent. So I'm not sure if clockworkmod is doing something to ensure ro.secure=0 ... I'm not sure.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] grankin01:
No, it means that "adb root" and "adb remount" and any of the other adb root functions will have root access to your device through Android Debug Bridge (adb) by default. My adb shell always comes up with a $ prompt and I have to "su" for root. Setting this to 0 should let you type "adb root" or " adb remount" from your command shell on your desktop and allow you a root prompt device shell or rw access to system without having to "su" or "mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system".

My MyGlacier 4G MINE!!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tiger013:
so this is the true stock kernel?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kambiz.aghaiepour:
Yes. I made a clockworkmod backup (nandroid backup) after rooting my phone with visionary+, but didn't alter anything else. So once I overwrote everything with Ice Glacier, I still have stock (post OTA update to 2.2.1) kernel and wireless drivers. (attached to OP).

I don't know how to convert them to a flashable update.zip, but I was able to load them using the procedure above.

EDIT:

Notice that the output of "uname -a" when run from adb shell is:

Linux localhost 2.6.32.21-g899d047 #1 PREEMPT Tue Oct 26 16:10:01 CST 2010 armv7l GNU/Linux

The Gorilla kernels have EXTRAVERSION strings added (the kernel version follows after "Linux localhost" in that string)
