[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapper.fishes:
If you reflash it using the firmware from samfirmware.com, it should remain unlocked.

You will need to remove all lagfix before reflashing it. Always remember to remove lagfix before flashing. The root can stay.

As for Darkyy's rom, I don't know what on earth happened lately, but he completely changed the instructions for no reason (far as I can tell). The old instructions were simply to flash back to an old Eclair firmware, and then install his rom. Works every single time.

im trying the tutorial below but i have a lot of questions, ive read the stickies to get flashboot working and stuff but i dont understand...

thanks for helping

1) in step 1, i have to move the ZIP to the memory card, do i move the ZIP or do i move the folder? also do i have to rename it?

2) in step 2 it said it is only needed if i have a built older than 1.2, where can i find my built?

3) in the last few steps it tells me to flash the 1.5 update, how do i do that?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumster:
So heres the scenario:

I have an HTC Desire with Froyo loaded. I had rooted it with unrevoked 3.21 and everything was going fine until an OTA update (apparently an update for marketplace) came out. Yes, I made a stupid error and updated using the OTA and lost the root.

Now I did a factory reset and tried rooting it again with unrevoked 3.22. And surprise surprise! It got rooted again!!

Now the problem here is that, I am trying to re-install some paid and some free applications that were on my phone earlier and Marketplace refuses to even show up those apps in search results...!! They are not present my phone because of the factory reset. Now when I search for the same app in Appbrain it throws up the search result and when I click on it, it behaves as if the app is installed in my system and shows me options like "Open - Uninstall - etc."

Is there some cache in my system that makes it believe that these apps are still there somewhere? I deleted everything from my SD Card and I tried clearing the marketplace cache. I also cleared the Dalvik Cache (dont know if its in any way related to the marketplace, but I still did it)

So what is it thats going wrong? Why arent these apps showing up? Any help would be appreciated. I am quite disillusioned with Android marketplace.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
try to install market access to try another country instead. after installing market access force stop market and clear cache.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumster:
Tried that, but it didnt work.

After searching the internet about this problem I realised that every ROM has a fingerprint that needs to be registered with Google. If this is not registered with Google, then users cannot find apps that are Copy Protected in the market.

I had recently received an OTA (about 2 weeks ago). So I am assuming that either HTC has not bothered to register this fingerprint with google or google has not updated their database. Either way the situation is pretty deplorable.

The only workaround that I found on the internet is to edit the build.prop file in the Android system (of course you need root access for this). I am planning of trying to do this so that I can fool the market into believing that I am using an older ROM version which is registered with them.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumster:
Well, just tried the build.prop method. Successfully spoofed the marketplace.

Shame on Google for having such restrictions. If I didnt have root access and I didnt know about this spoofing method, then I would just have to wait endlessly until either HTC or Google moved their rearside and get things working.

Really disappointed with Android.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] binkyubk:
hi guys.. I recently rooted my phone using z4root and was able to root it. what I would need help on is how to backup the settings of my phone (optimus one). the kind of backup where if something goes wrong I can just load my backup settings to start over.

Also, I installed rom manager and it requires me to flash clockworkMod recovery. when I do that it asks me to confirm my phone model but my phone model isn't on the list to choose from.

And once that's taken care of could someone help me flash custom roms.. TY

I'm new to all this, so please bear with me. ^^

[General Questions and Answers] Finalchrono:
Bought a phone in the past few days, the LG Vortex (I'm broke). I rooted the phone with no problems, installed rom manager to boot into recovery mode (bad idea), the phone reboots and now it's stuck at the logo screen. I've tried everything to get this piece of crap to go into recovery, from hard reset button combo to trying to force it in adb. Unfortunately when I connect it to the computer, the computer doesn't even recognize the device. Am I screwd or is there some light at the end of the tunnel i'm missing?

Oh btw tried to take it to verizon to get a factory reset, the tech guy there looked at it for all of 1 minute, said that I rooted it and that my warranty was void. Anything I can do at all at this point?

I have the evo.. ok.. so you know when u put a background picture? u can never put the whole picture. then when you are flipping tru the home screen back and forth, the picture moves from left to right also.. am i making any sense?

SO.. IS THERE ANYWAY YOU CAN PUT A WHOLE PICTURE IN THE BACKGROUND WITH OUT MOVING WHEN U MOVE BACK AND FORTH IN THE SCREENS..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruki_Uki:
In not too sure about setting a full picture, maybe it depends on the size of the picture. I bet if it was a smaller picture you can set it whole. And as for the picture moving, I'm pretty sure its somewhere in the settings.

As far as using the whole picture, just resize it (using Paint or Photoshop or something) to 480x800, or 960x800 if you can't get the scrolling to turn off. Then you'll be able to use the whole thing.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] IcedCube:
I've been pondering this for a while. This thread serves as a thinking ground until the official AOSP Gingerbread Sources are released.

As a HD2 Android community, once Gingerbread is up on it's git source, why doesn't one brave soul go ahead and download the source, and build it so it's completely stock (aka generic) with no mods, just directly from the source, and then release it as a "ROM Starter", meaning that devs that are wanting to sink their teeth into a working Gingerbread base can download that ROM, add their own sprinkle of seasoning (custom apps and the like) and bake it even more.

The person who baked the original ROM would be thanked and all that jazz. This would save a lot of time and effort having to download compilers, and all that stuff just to make a HD2 Gingerbread ROM.

In other words, make a ROM base that we can do our own spin-offs on it for example, you might see:

m-deejay NitrousBread

darkstone SpicyGingerBread

...etc.

Which are based on the generic ROM that the brave soul compiled. I'm sure they'll be famous as well ;)

So yeah, that's my two cents. Your opinions?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] unitedxempire:
Yes I agree. I was thinking we should have a base ROM just like in Nexus S, without any mods or tweaks and etc. A Plain vanilla stock Android 2.3 Gingerbread ROM. Then from there devs are welcomed to make changes and etc.

I've been messing around in google app inventor getting an idea for the flow of code and figured that it's time to step up to an actual coding environment.

So I went and downloaded the most recent SDK and eclipse. I installed all the available resources and revisions.

Then i hit a snag. The guide said that in order to properly set up Eclipse i need the ADT plugin. I opened the help menu and went to install new software and clicked on the add button. In the name section i put "ADT Plugin" and in location i put the exact web address they gave and it kept giving an error that said unable to connect to repository... i even tried http over https but still experienced the same issue. I entered the website enter my web browser in hopes that it would connect to a ftp server or start a direct download but unfortunatly it was a google site that was no longer available.

So i want to know if theres a mirror download somewhere that i can manually install to eclipse.

Okay just ran into another hitch

I downloaded the zip file and go to install new software but instead of the website i use the archive. It provides me with a list of 3 options

Android DDMS

Android Development Tools

Android Hierarchy Viewer

I put a check in each box and click next it says calculating Dependencies and requirements then i get an error that says

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

Software being installed: Android Development Tools 8.0.1.v201012062107-82219 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 8.0.1.v201012062107-82219)

Missing requirement: Android Development Tools 8.0.1.v201012062107-82219 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 8.0.1.v201012062107-82219) requires 'org.eclipse.gef 0.0.0' but it could not be found

Now this has me at a loss. If i downloaded the Archive in theory i shouldn't have to connect to any more sites to install the plugin. I want to know if there is a way to drag and drop the contents of the archive to a plugins folder then open eclipse and refresh the installed plugins in order to show that ADT has been installed.
