[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funkadelick:
Thanks alot buddy. I just downloaded the Z4 Root app. Does this work with i9000m ? can anyone confirm ?

If so I'm gonna root my phone this aft. and back up my stuff!

When updating, i hear the best thing to do is a factory reset after update.

Once I boot back into the phone with Froyo, do I install Titanium Back up ? then open the app and hit "restore" ? I'm assuming it would look on my SD card for my "old" back up of apps ? I can only assume it doesn't back up stuff to a cloud/server.

Also, is this internal SD it backs up to or external SD

There was the first week of December floating around, and now I don't even know anymore.

Seems everybody has it now except us... :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AvatarReborn:
Yeah a good number of us I9000M users have updated to an unofficial bell ROM leaked a week or so back.

If you want the official rom, the last I heard was mid December.

If you do the unofficial route do some reading before hand before you decide. Many I9000M users have had corrupt internal SD cards, which result in a trip to a bell store for service.

You have been warned !

Hi everyone I will be in Hong Kong next week and today i will be selling my archos 101 and I am getting the viewsonic gtablet but I was thinking about the zpad, are they the same device specs wise and hardware, I heard they had a 3g version. If anyone has any info, Id appreciate as I might wait and pick one of them up while I am in Hong Kong. Thanks
[G Tablet General] yujikaido79:
Oh well decided not to wait, its a long flight to Hong Kong and I need something to keep me occupied. Off to sears to pick one up and then the hacking will begin. ^^
[G Tablet General] mmathai77:
i thogutht the zpad was resistive screen? which is crap.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I believe that their Wifi version is identical to ours, hardware wise.
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
There are a couple of them. Ours is more like the SMB-A1002 while the resistive version is the SMB-A1011

[Nook Color General] Sirchuk:
Just under the power button, about an inch, on the frame parallel to the screen, it feels like I can press it slightly when holding the NC. It's the only place around the device that does it, but it's quite annoying. Is this a standard issue on all NC's or am I just lucky?

Not sure if it's an exchangeable issue. At first I didn't think so, but now it's so dang annoying feeling that "give" right where I put my thumb. My wife noticed it too. It's like it needs to be re-glued right in that spot. It makes an otherwise great device feel a little cheap when others use it.
[Nook Color General] gojeda:
I do not detect this "soft spot" you speak of on my unit.
[Nook Color General] Tess89:
I had a similar problem in certain spots on the sides of the back cover. At first I figured that it was the same with all color nooks. When I found it wasn't I made the decision to exchange it even though there was nothing else wrong with the NC. I just found it a distraction. The one I have now is firm in all areas. I felt weird about returning the first one over something so minor, but I figured spending over $250 on a product I would be using a lot entitled me to a perfect device. It was totally worth it. If its something that's bothering you now, chances are its going to keep bothering you.

If you decide to a return to a B&N store, you might have to press the issue to get it exchanged. I actually had to get a CS rep over the phone to explain to the store rep that it was okay for me to exchange it as long as it was within the 14 day period.

[Q] Noobie with a few Questions

Have my HD2 now working after thinking I had bricked my New HD2. Thanks for all the help, by the way.

I downloaded a O2 Stock Rom and when flashing it reached 80% and died and would not flash at all and kept booting to the Tri colour Boot screen so I then downloaded a TMO stock rom and used that and its now OK ish.

I have a TMO unlocked HD2 using Winmo 6.5 with the O2 provider, So it still boots with the T Mobile screens and tries to use the TMO Walk and Web for internet connection. I manually input the O2 Settings into My ISP and I can get onto the net through this. Phone, Email and SMS work fine with O2

Some more new questions?

2) Can I flash the HD2 with a Custom Rom

2) Yes way not!?

3) Energy ROM ore Artemis ROM are very good.

Only problem is Artemis ROM use the latest stock ROM 3.14 (There isn't a 3.14 UK T-Mobile stock ROM available yet, so you need to use the Goldcard technique)

Ow, no matter witch custom ROM you choose, reed and follow the install instructions mention on there threads.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fred_up:
Yes you can, but why would you want to? HSPL the phone, then flash it it the HTC 1.66WWE ROM. This is basically the 1.72 ROM that the operators brought out, but without all the guff that the operators add in.

I have a 1.66WWE ROM with a T-Mobile UK HD2. Everything works as it should and it is stable.

Again, yes you can. But please read, and then reread, the chef's instructions. They will tell you if you if their ROM is suitable for your phone, if you need to HSPL (or Gold Card or SSPL) it and what Radio ROM is suitable for it.

The HTC 1.66WWE ROM is very stable for me, along with the 2.15 RADIO. As for custom ROMs, then go to the custom ROM section and have a good read.

[18:09] <quertiy> and i just saw that all the apps that i no longer see, are the ones moves to the sd

And, i've been using the same rc1 for a lot of time when this happened for the first time. Sometimes the apps were there, somtimes after boot, not. With rc2 and final the same thing was happening until today when i couldn't make the apps appear no matter how many time i would boot the device.
[Desire General] ipfreelytech:
The froyo app2sd stores the apps in a folder called .androidsecure (i think i have that right, something similar at least) I have noticed that sometimes during certain types of wipes and backup/restores that clockworkmod will wipe that folder.

mount usb storage and check if there is anything in that folder. did you make a nandroid before updating? do the apps return if you do a restore?

So first i stood on his bag and then just messing i squirted the hose pipe in it so it was full of water and he went MAD!!!!!

I emptied his bag and a few books and his mp3 player fell out lol!!!

I then realised why he went mad, it was crused and dripping with water.

I took it home, took the battery out and put it on the radiator to dry overnight.

Put a battery in it and it come on!!!

Played music and worked!

It had a cracked screen but worked.

[Desire General] imagini:
I bought my desire about 10 days ago, and I decided to root it. I followed some guide on the internet and used the unrevoked3 tool to root my desire. Perfect. Its now rooted and I now have root access on my Desire. Why did I root it? I just wanted to install the DSP manager App (installs surround effect on your phone). Installed it. Perfect. The phone has no problems at all and its fine. But I read on Engadget that Ginger bread (Android 2.3) is going to be released soon. I haven't installed anything else after rooting except for juice defender and the DSP manager app. Whats my problem? I need to unroot it. Simply because I need to be on the safe side, and to install any future OTA updates. Oh did I mention that I'm a complete n00b!

What do I need now? Your help. Please help me in getting my phone unrooted. I have a Desire A8181 with Android 2.2 in it (bought it with 2.2). Rooting was painless, but this unrooting seems like a pain ______. I seriously have no idea as to how to get it back to its original factory state. Any help would be much much appreciated! Thank you.

Not sure if these would help too -

[Desire General] TheGhost1233:
You got to be joking, you are gone unroot because you think you will receive gingerbread via OTA before there is a custom with Gingerbread?

If you really want Gingerbread stay rooted and wait for a stable rom, which will be released months before the OTA update (if we ever see Gingerbread officially on the Desire which i doubt).

If you answered yes on the first question, the post above has all the info you need.
[Desire General] imagini:
Thanks Mr.Ghost, I decided I'll stay rooted for a while, like you said, I doubt if the desire will even get an update to Gingerbread (and incase it doesn't I might need to install some custom ROM with gingerbread for which I will require rooting again and I will need to search for the unrevoked3 setup again which is a boring process) It would be sad (and a shame on HTC's part) if the desire doesn't get an update (and the N1 gets it).

Thanks,

Some apps allow you to install on SD others not, just check which ones can make it and install them.
[General Questions and Answers] Marak Alyndar:
If I recall correctly, apps in Android 2.1 cannot be run from sd card, however, they could be backed up onto the SD card and then uninstalled. eg. You'd need to restore app from the backup when you want to run it. (I've been using Astro to backup, however, no chance/need to restore an app yet!)

Hello, i just bought a new HTC 7 Mozart and tried uploading some videos to it via zune. They were around 60mb in size, 24 minutes in length and with a resolution of 720x-something. They don't seem as really high-quality when i play them from my computer, but when i play it on my phone, the picture is filled with green squares and during faster movements the screen is completely green with a few squares showing something else.

How did you managed to install to CM 6.1?

I used ROM manager to flash and it didn't work...
[Legend General] speedyink:
I did the exact same thing and it worked. Keys are a little smaller, but it's just as usable to me as the last one. it's looks a lot nicer though, so she stays. No multi touch though, as I thought it would have.

[Legend General] JonasDroid:
What I would try: (Ok this will sound stupid but it might just work)

Wipe and reflash CM6.1 it should still have the gingerbread keyboard but now with bigger buttons
[Legend General] speedyink:
It is, but not by much. For example when you hold period you get a popup with all the commonly used punctuation marks. Same with the smilies, and with the top row of letters (showing numbers and accents, much like in the standard cm keyboard).

I actually like the smaller key size, as I can see more other stuff on screen when I type. I also somehow find it works just as accurate, even though it's harder to see where my finger actually lands.

The biggest thing is it looks a lot nicer, with the suggestions in a black background box in orange letters...nice!

Only thing is I have to teach it all my (swear) words again >_<
[Legend General] kugel.:
HTC_ime also does this. From what I read the only added feature seems to be multitouch (which I'd find awesome), but then I'd lose gestures.
[Legend General] gwon:
I tried this skepticaly. Installed..small keys...reflashed cyanogenmod without a wipe. Didn't work, default keyboard restored.
[Legend General] speedyink:
gestures? I haven't used the htc keyboard in ages, but I did hate how friggin busy it looked.
[Legend General] kugel.:
The HTC_ime mod has gestures (and a number of other extra features). It's a lot better than the stock keyboard imo.

Is that for sense roms only?
