Is there an app that enables screen rotation only when the virtual keyboard is open? I use my phone in portrait 99% of the time, and it's annoying to have to enable/disable rotation every time I want to type a long message.

android system recovery screen... it's not booting T_T tried Odin stock recovery,

nandroid.. nothing seems to get my phone to boot up. help me please !!
[Fascinate General] Jrex:
What happened prior to cause this scenario? Any custom roms or kernels etc...
[Fascinate General] zander25:
I have the same problem,

it happend after a couple of rom flashes. i think the reason is in voodoo kernal. Tried to flash it with odin and then remove, but no luck...

it exchanged the master boot record on the device so it wont boot properly.

Tried to change mbr to original one with adb shell, but it says "device not found"

What am I doing wrong?

HELP US PLEASE!!!!
[Fascinate General] oyes453:
ive updated to dj05, flashed voodoo 5, then i was flashing the boot animation through

rom manager. for some reason it got stuck in the process saying 'finding zip file'.. so i

pulled out the battery.. once i reboot it, i knew something was wrong with the phone

at this point. it keeps getting me to the voodoo lagfix recovery which is all red color, i went to irc and got help getting rid of voodoo so its back to stock recovery and pushed in stock files through odin. but still when i turn on the phone, after samsung logo it keeps getting me to the stock recovery screen instead of booting the system..

Image that you have a hardware locked vibrant and bricked !!

all the methods that was discussed about getting locked vibrant into recovery mode or even download mode has failed except the adb method which successfully got me to the download mode , I uploaded customized ROM and PIT in odin and that`s all the phone can`t be started not even showing battery bar or recognized by my laptop ..

does that mean it`s dead ??would it be covered by Samsung warranty ...

thanks in advance
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtone:
as long as you can get to download mode it's never dead.. why would you flash a custom ROM immediately? try flashing a stock pit and tar 1st.. then once your recovered go to custom ROM
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigernight:
yea but my vibrant can`t be detected by PC so adb method wouldn`t work ....

I may try making a homemade JIG hoping it to force download mode ..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skaikey:
I know you said you try everything, but just incase, did you try turning on odin with stock pit and tar in, then plug in the usb, with the battery out. hold down volume + and - and then plug in the battery? Should bring you to "download mode" hit start. It work all the time for me. Sorry if you did try it, but it was just incase you havn't.

Actually, the webos isnt all that bad..I used a palm pre shortly while trying out Sprint and it was rather nice. The phone itself...not so much, but the OS I found intriguing. Not as good as Android in its current state...but with a big push it could be if its not to late now.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sleef:
Never had any Palm phones but briefly had a Blackberry, which is what hooked me into smart phones. Followed that up with the G1 and have yet to consider getting a non Android phone since. Android is just too snazzy. It's got everything useful and practical while being disguised as an extremely bright and shiny toy. I guess it is a bright and shiny toy but practical too!

[G2 and Desire Z General] yelti:
I had the palm pre for quite a while and was quite happy with it. User experience is way better than android.

the good:

-Multiple exchange accounts

-to search you just start typing.

-Synergy was very nice also.

- great form factor

- no "save" button, everything autosaves

- multitasking is real visible multitasking

- no rooting needed

- some comunity patches where incorporated in new webos versions

the bad

- poor bluetooth support

- poor application support

- no decent gps software

- webos release cycle at start was great, but slabbed the last few months

Hardware was not super, but ok. I had the oreo effect but not realy bad.

Once you oc'ed the cpu from 500mhz to 800mhz it ran realy smooth.

The gestures are a super invention.

If i didn't **** up my palm, i would still use him dispite the faults.

Mix the the two together and you would get a super product.

user community, dev, applications from android

user interface and gestures from palm.

just my 2 cents

I am running CyanogenMOD 6.1 for the CDMA Desire and I was wondering if anyone knows the APN settings for MMS on Cellcom (from Wisconsin not israel)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jade_Falcon:
I know it's an old thread, but a common issue. And comes up at the top of searches yet, relating to cellcom (wisconsin) and APN settings. So here's what I got....

I was told by Cellcom tech support that these are the only settings you need to fill out. Particularly if you are using a 3rd party app. Although you can just call them to get the APN settings. They have no problems giving out that information. She specifically said that fields such as proxy, login, pass, etc are not set for cellcom's network/devices. Which is unlike other carriers, such as USCC, where you need those items for MMS to work. Don't waste your time at the store, call 611 and ask about it. They'll transfer you to a tech.

MMSC http://mms.cellcom.com/cellom/mms.php-Cellcom

MCC 300

MNC 610
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gopackgogreenbay:
I got the APN to work with Cellcom.... MMS works again! Android 6.0.1

The facts:

Moto Maxx XT1250 from Cellcom (Wisconsin) not Israel

CyanogenMod 13.0-20161221 (Andriod 6.0.1) because Cellcom stopped supporting the phone and stopped at Android 5.0.1

All this broke the APN so no MMS. Called their support and they gave me the APN settings. However when I entered the MMC and MNC it broke again.

The fix:

Go into settings and find your APN modifications.

Locate the VZWINTERNET APN settings or make your own and modify it to these settings:

Name = Cellcom

APN = VZWINTERNET

Proxy = Not set

Port = Not set

Username = Not set

Password = Not set

Server = Not set

MMSC = http: // mms.cellcom.com/ cellom /mms. php ( Do not have spaces. XDA won't let me post this as it thinks it is a link. Put this as one line!)

MMS proxy = Not set

MMS port = Not set

MCC = 311 (this is the default, do not change it, this is what will break the APN profile. Cellcom Says to make it 310 but leave it)

MNC = 480 (this is the default, do not change it, this is what will break the APN profile. Cellcom Says to make it 600 but leave it)

Authentication type = Not set

APN type = default,mms,dun,supl

APN protocol = IPv4/IPv6

APN roaming protocol = IPv4/IPv6

APN enable/disable = will be grayed out and cannot be modified

Bearer = Unspecified (you must turn off all the others and only check the box for Unspecified)

MVNO = SPN

MVNO value = Cellcom (this will auto populate when you change the MVNO to SPN)

Press the 3 dots upper right and click save. Reboot and enjoy MMS again!

I tested with the Cyanogen messaging app, Googles Messaging app, and Google Hangouts and the all work sending photos and multiple people texting.

Now will this work for other handsets or ROMs? I do not know. Please reply to the post with your results.

Has anyone tried the Angry Birds Backup?

someone told me about the 'Angry Birds Backup' and 'Angry Birds Seasons Backup' today for unlock, restore and backup high scores.

No idea if this would work or not - but apparently doesn't need rooting...
[Desire General] beady_uk:
The way i have done this before is to use root explorer and go to /data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/files and copy the highscores.lua to your sd card.

Then if you transfer this to your DHD and install angry birds

*YOU MUST PLAY THE GAME AT LEAST ONCE TO CREATE THE HIGHSCORES FILE*

Just play the first level.

Then use root explorer on your DHD to go to /data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/files and delete or rename the highscores file and paste in your highscores.lua file from before.

The only problem i have found is that it may force close the 1st couple of times you play and if you have not played every level then you will need to replay the last level you have finished to unlock the next level.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
comments on the angry birds season backup didnt look like it worked anyway... maybe because the users had to root or it wouldnt work - but there didnt seem to be any notes to suggest that but it makes sense.
[Desire General] JamesC_:
I use MyBackup to backup all my apps + data (Plus contacts, sms, mms, etc) when reinstalling roms. Should work between phones.

[Desire General] MattSkeet:
I've purchased angry birds backup and downloaded seasons backup cos i had to make a hard reset of the phone. One word.... it works!!! You just have to pass one level to restore the save game

[Desire General] eldereiny:
It definitely works. I have 3 stars on every level, and the backup restored them all. The only thing I had to redo were the golden eggs. All of them were there, but without the stars.

When I purchased it, the developer said he would be updating it to include Angry Birds Seasons... I had to wipe my phone, and I didn't realize there was a separate app, so I lost ALL of my Seasons data. Had 3 stars on all of the Halloween levels and Xmas (through day 9).

Does anyone have a save file that has all of the Halloween levels passed w/ 3 stars?
[Desire General] MattSkeet:
Yup. Would you like one? ;)

Just give me your email and ill send it to you

[Desire General] Lothaen:
Are you rooted or unrooted?

[Desire General] eldereiny:
unrooted, but I would use the Angry Birds Seasons backup to restore the save file. It worked for the original.
[Desire General] jnightz:
That might work for the same version of angrybirds, but what about for diferent versions?

I have save files from 1.4.2 and now I want to use that saves with the new 1.5.1 version but it didn't work, downloaded from android market 3 times and it said 'install failed'. I manage to get the .apk file on sdcard and tried to install but no success, it said "there's not enough space" ??? lol

So I unistall the 1.4.2 version and install the 1.5.1 and the save game/highscore didn't work. Every time I copy/move the highscores.lua the game stops working, it closes itself after loading screen. The only solution was unistall and install again starting all levels again.

EDIT: Found the solution, I didn't check file permissions, it must be 660 but it wasn't. chmod 660 highscores.lua solved the problem.
[Desire General] eagles20015:

including formatting the SD card and such, so it's the same as when it was bought?

I bought this phone used from someone off craigslist and they left quite a bit of extra things on there, pics, videos, apps, settings, and when I flashed R4.2, some of that stuff got left behind.

I just wanted to ask you all why you exchanged your epic to get another one. What problems were you having? I'm on my second one and about to be third. My first one I got 3wks ago and came out of the box with dg27and would not update itself to di18. I did it myself but still I called sprint and talked to tech and they said it was a software issue. I have no idea. Second one came out of the box updated but freezes and backs out of apps. Also if I'm using wifi and turn it off my 3G icon doesn't immediately show up for like hours. Sometimes a battery pull is required to get the 3G to come back on and when it does if I'm downloading something the arrows that show something is being downloaded doesn't light up but it still loads webpages. I'm just worried I'm gonna get another one that won't update itself if I take this one back. I dont mind using odin but i shouldnt have to. What issues did you all have? Do you think if I exchanged mine now that it should come out of the box with di18. It's been out long enough?

Wow. Where do I begin. I had a whole laundry list of problems. Still do. Apparently most were software and may or may not get fixed. But hardware-wise, I had a massive battery drain problem. Bought mine at launch, and Sprint replaced it after the 30 days, and that's without the extended warranty crap. That's good customer service. Finally got one without major problems, but I'm trading mine for an Evo in the next couple days, so it don't matter either way.

On the 3rd my 4G wouln't turn on. I'd pull the notification bar down, hit the 4G icon & nothing would happen. Sprint tech said basically the 4g radio was never "turned on" & it couldn't be fixed at the store. Also the door for the charger didn't click when I opened it so it would slide open & close by itself.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syl0n:
So, I took my Nexus One for a spin using Google Turn-By-Turn navigation and it was like a 25 minute drive and when I got home, the phone was really hot, to the point where i was afraid this thing may be close to being fried on the inside. The touch screen wasn't working properly (not responding to touch and being very inaccurate than normal). I left it on the desk and after 5 minutes it cooled down again and was fine.

What the heck is wrong? is it cause I kept it on the dash board against the dials, that area was kind of warm but nothing to heat up the phone that much, should I be using a cradle or something?

Its a fully stock Nexus with 2.2.1 FRG83D, not rooted and no other apps running. Same thing happened with the free program MapDroyd, so it isn't Google Navigation only issue either.
