[EVO 4G General] Systemfraud:
Thinking of canceling my evo contract and going back to tmobile and getting a G2, good or bad idea? I also believe tmo service is better in my area, and the lack of a keyboard is finally getting to me, since I came from having a physical keyboard for years. Think this is a good or bad idea?
[EVO 4G General] swaze:
Honestly who cares. Its gonna be your phone and your service if you feel something else is better for you,

go for it.
[EVO 4G General] uh60james:
Nobody can decide which carrier is best for you but you man so if you need to switch do it. How long have you had the Evo? Took me about 2 weeks to get used to the lack of a physical keyboard.
[EVO 4G General] ccossin:
My opinion is really rather simple. I think Sprint has the best unlimited plans. I find physical keyboards limited in function in most cases. But it's only my opinion. You have to do what works for you.

Sent from my... Who gives a frak?
[EVO 4G General] TheMagicalSock:
Try an Epic? I wouldn't give up unlimited data while you still have it. The ETF and cost of a G2 would also be about the price of an Epic, if my maths are correct.

It's all up to you. The G2 is awesome. You wouldn't be sacrificing a whole lot, I suppose.
[EVO 4G General] Systemfraud:
I've had the Evo since release, I got used to the lack of a physical keyboard pretty quickly, but in the end I still wind up missing it. While I agree with the people who posted about the unlimited data, yes that's GREAT...but the sad part is, I never even have 3G on due to their 3G being VERY poor where I am. Call quality is great, but data is super slow... I'm always on Wi-Fi when at home, but when I'm not home I'm pretty much screwed. So, that unlimited data is pretty much going to waste for me. I just wish I knew more about 3G and whatnot before my 30 days was up, this way I would've canceled within time. I love the Evo, it's a spectacular phone, and Sprint is great as well. The only problems that I myself have, is the 3G, and if the 3G is wicked slow, I can't even expect to see 4G where I am at all. Otherwise I would probably go with an Epic...but sheesh. I've got some researching to do.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrinehart93:
Well I've just been wondering... why do other phones (usually GSM) need specific radios flashed to them in order for some ROMs to work? What's so special about our phone where we can flash any radio, and any ROM will work with it? I'm just curious about this :confused:
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
I have always wondered this as well *scratches head* I was helping a friend root a tmo g2 and certain roms could only be on certain radios as you said and when I had a tmo tp2 it was the same way. Its only with GSM so I'm glad to have cdma network cause that's too much radio flashing for me.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrinehart93:
Yeah I helped a friend root and install CM6 on his T-Mobile MyTouch... it was so much more complicated than the Hero.

if by chance, do you have a good tutorial link or something to that effect as to how do i root this darn phone?

thanks in advanced

he just wants cm on it and we're still stuck on 1.6

[Epic 4G General] SubnetMask:
I've been told that the built-in wireless tethering on the Android phones is part of the kernel, and as such, can not be added back in easily (if at all). I know there are 3rd party apps for tethering (I've used "Wireless Tether 2.0.5"). I read somewhere that the Froyo build for the Galaxy S phones is supposed to ship with the portable hotspot software. Does anyone know if it's there, but "hidden", or if it is stripped out like previous builds?

On SGS tools application i applied the camera hack.... now I can't record videos, always FCs

On there it says to run restore_camera script but I can't find the script and when I go to files and find Sgs tools including see camera. All but when using thy to install it says applications not installed

Help!
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Help please in going to a party in 2 hours and I need the camera
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Anyone please!????
[Vibrant General] firefly6240:
you could re-flash the rom, I've never tried the camera hack so I'm not sure exactly what it entails or how to reverse it besides just starting over.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
I'm new to flashing rom and stuff but does it erase all apps
[Vibrant General] firefly6240:
Yes it would unless you back them up somehow.

Are you running a custom rom right now?
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
No stock rooted why?
[Vibrant General] firefly6240:
I found this:

"Be careful in Service Mode that you know what it is your changing. If you hork up your phone you can reset it by doing a Factory data reset in Settings / Privacy / Factory data reset."

from here

but be careful, you'll need to reinstall your apps if you do that, but if you flashed the rom again you'd have to do that anyways.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Thanks ill probably try a new rom any recommendations preferably one with good battery
[Vibrant General] firefly6240:
I've had great battery with Macnut R13.

I've actualy never had below 24 hours unplugged.

but fair warning: some people say the opposite so I may have just got lucky.

It seems to be about 50/50 have good battery life or dont lol

Also I hear great things about Team Whiskeys roms.

as well as Auxura (Although the guy developing the rom recently stopped development on it)

if you want to stay with 2.1 you might try team whiskey

or if you like 2.2 then any of the above would be great roms :)

everyone has their own opinion though so you might try a few before you find one you like alot.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Okay one more question... let's say I flash a rom right now... then flash another tomorrow... will the one I did the day before be completely erased when I flash a new one I've heard of people experiencing bugs and this happened ..
[Vibrant General] firefly6240:
Generaly yes you should not have a problem.

but if you do run into trouble you can use odin to start clean, in fact alot of people prefer to use odin to get back to stock before flashing any rom.

but its up to you, I generaly only use odin if things start acting weird (which is next to never)
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Wait... isn't Odin how you flash new roms?

Also can u link me to a good tutorial on flashing roms I'm trying to search it from my phone using xda app but its taking forever
[Vibrant General] brian_v3ntura:
no need to reflash just reopen SGS tools and click apple script/restore_camera.txt . thats it
[Vibrant General] rk0:
Why you guys telling him to flash a rom. Just push the Camera.apk from the original ROM you have.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
You can close this Someone else helped me out thanks for teying

[Vibrant General] eviltwin24:
So how did you get the stock camera back? Mine keeps restarting my phone I want to restore it but there is no restore.txt
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Go to your files app.. then sgstools folder there should be a app called camera.apk

Get root explorer go to system > apps and delete camera.apk and the one under it is like camera.odex delete that too.

Now use root explorer to go to sgstools and move camera.API to system apps then go clear all data foe camera app reboot. Done.
[Vibrant General] rapsucks10:
Hi, I try to do that but I don't have the camera.API in sgstools folder. What can I do???? Im desperate for revert the hack, my camera is not working, it's force quit every time I open it. Please help me!!!!!!!

[Omnia 7 General] LiamHowley:
Ive had my Omnia 7 (8gig, Three network) for over a week now, and while I like the phone and want to keep it, I feel like returning it and asking for another. (another omnia 7)

The reason for this is that it seems to crash a lot! Numerous third party apps and even occasionally the first party hubs seem to randomly crash, refuse to load or freeze/hang the phone. Sometimes I can use it for a whole day with no problems, but occasionally i can use it for 15-30 minutes and have numerous apps refuse to load or crash and maybe even freeze the phone, making it totally unresponsive and forcing me to restart the phone 2 or 3 times!

The most common main culprits are ebay, yellow pages, remotely possible, poynt, imdb, fantasia painter, train travel, xbox live extras, marketplace. But almost every app ive downloaded (aswell as zune, messaging and hotmail) has bugged out at some point

It seems totally random as like ive said above sometimes everything just works perfectly and other times it throws a wobbler. I'm left wondering if this is just because its an immature OS and it'll get better with updates or ive just got a dodgy handset and should get a replacement.

Which leads me to ask you all a question:

How often does an app on your Omnia 7 crash, freeze or reset your phone?

Thank you,

Liam
[Omnia 7 General] karthikraman:
This is weird. Could it be bad memory? I have an Omnia since 8-9 days, and it's been perfect, practically. Just felt something was amiss with Zune yesterday, briefly, but haven't had any other problem. Of course, I don't have that many apps installed -- and haven't tried out eBay/imdb/poynt etc...

Maybe, you could try a hard reset?

Omnia 7 rocks :)
[Omnia 7 General] Ikkari:
Mine is working fine, try a hard reset. If the hard reset doesn't help, i would demand a replacement.
[Omnia 7 General] root beer:
Had zero crashes on my Omnis after 3 weeks of constant use. Only bug I have is in internet explorer sometimes not scrolling down until 2nd try. I would guess it is one of the 3rd party apps causing your problems.
[Omnia 7 General] 001mic:
Mine sometimes crashed in Marketplace or Zune. When I tried to open one of those I got a couple of loading dots but the app didn't launch.

I only got my Omnia for a couple of days - I hope that this will not happen often...
[Omnia 7 General] LiamHowley:
ok im definately gonna do what i can to exchange it for a new one now. twice in a row it broke while just trying to send a text message.

The first time it froze and needed restarting, the second time the screen went dim and the touchscreen stopped working until i restarted it :(

[Vibrant General] savbers:
I've tried reading the sticky and the only thing it has done is confuse me.

I don't know what half the stuff they're talking about is, and that probably means unrooting is something I shouldn't be doing. But I really want the samsung apps, swype and other promoted features of the phone which won't be available when I get the "Rooted Samsung Vibrant 2.2" phone I bought.

Anyways, my question.

How would I get from Rooted Android 2.2 to Stock Android 2.1? (it can be rooted I just want the features, but unrooted would be preference I could use the one click root application)

Sorry, but I live in Canada and I want that phone so I can use it on AWS providers and well, It's just a complicated situation but the point is I bought a cheap vibrant on ebay that happened to be rooted with 2.2 but as you can see I want it on 2.1..

augh I should stop typing.

THANKS FOR THE HELP IN ADVANCE!!
[Vibrant General] bobbbb:
So you want complete stock 2.1 with original firmware and everything? This sounds like a job for ODIN, go to the Bible sticky and find the thread on ODIN there. However, doing this will reset everything back to out-of-the-box status, meaning you lose all of your apps and data (contacts, media, etc).

And since you don't want to be rooted you can't make a backup and then reinstall all of your data and apps using Titanium Backup Pro, as you need root for that...
[Vibrant General] lavcoles:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=771111

look in here. The best way to do this would be to flash back to stock in Odin. Look for the Odin tutorials in that thread above. Hope you figure out how to do it. There are some videos and stuff that will help you, it won't be too hard.
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
If your ONLY reason for doing this is to get swype, samsung apps, and promoted features, I think what you are doing is a TERRIBLE idea. You would basically be downgrading the phone.

Lots of the new 2.2 Roms include ALL of the features you want but are faster, and can look better. I suggest you look into the Dev section at a few 2.2 ROMS before you make up your mind on this.

If you're DEADSET on getting complete locked stock, yes, use ODIN.

[Android Apps and Games] ksporry:
I think this question has been asked many times before. I suffer the same problem, so I wonder if there is another way of installing Android market apps on a phone without android. For example, using a QR code scanner? Would that work from a device that doesn't have Android market?
[Android Apps and Games] cingall:
It's an android application, so to use on a non-android phone you'd have to port it.
[Android Apps and Games] ksporry:
android software packages cannot run on non-android devices, no offence but we know this.

Us users of devices that have an android version without Android market, want to have android market on that device.

I just tried using a QR code scanner on my motorola XT701 (which from the factory does not have android market), and it failed to install, because it wants android market presumably.

So here goes again: does someone know of a way to access android market apps on an android device that does not have android market?

Alternatively, can someone explain why Google does not make Android Market available? I mean, it's in their own best interests isn't it? I mean, Google Android is an Opens Source platform, so the app should be available to all android users, right? Or am I thinking to normal here?
[Android Apps and Games] zerojay:
For your phone or tablet to have access to Android Market and the rest of the Google apps, it has to be approved by Google. Android itself is free to everyone, but not those apps.
[Android Apps and Games] dicksonma:
many thz everyone

it can be loaded but crashed in loading terms and argeement scan.

So how about flashing it to another rom or kernal?
[Android Apps and Games] ksporry:
For phones flashing it with a new ROM is possible, most android phones tend to have a ROM availale somewhere. However, for those Chinese made tablets, many donot have Market installed. I happen to have one I bought in May, and it does have Android Market, but so far many others do not, even proper brand ones, like Archos, don't have Market, which is sad.

So for chinese tablets, I guess you just hav eto search until you find one that has teh market pre-installed. Probably you'd have to order from HK, rather than mainland china (they are quite arsy, even about google maps. Infact, if you check google maps in China, you wil find the satellite images have been shifted compared to the map....)
