[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delevin1:
Thanks for the reply.

My EVO isn't rooted, and when I use ASTRO, I can't find the directory you reference. Is there a way to find the visual voicemail files on a NON-rooted evo?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtd_20912:
Delevin1 - did you have any luck with this? When I open Astro, by default it starts in the directory /mnt/sdcard, but clicking the "up" button twice will take me to the root directory / and from there I can go to /data and its subdirectories.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r.storm85:
Hopefully zagmans method works. But if not..your voicemails will always be in ur last nandroid backup. So you could nandroid back to listen to one. I know it would suck to do that but at least your voicemails arent gone.. just always make a nand backup!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delevin1:
Data Directory and New VVM version (T.5.2.0.24)

Yes, I'm able to get to the Data Directory using ASTRO File Manager, but the directory appears empty, even when I change the preferences to "show hidden files".

The Visual Voicemail app recently received an update that added "folders", including a "Deleted" folder (so you won't lose a voicemail that you accidentally deleted), and an option to "Move to SD". This moves selected voicemails to the /mnt/sdcard/smvvm directory which is great progress. However, it renames them (e.g. SD-10A, SD-11A, SD-12A, etc) so you lose data about who the voicemail is from, when it was received, and how long it is (although you can see the size of the file)

In the properties (as viewed via ASTRO) for each file, it shows the modified date as the date you moved it to the SD card, not the date it was recorded. There is no created date.

Definitely a move in the right direction, but still needs some work.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtd_20912:
David - Sorry, it looks like I was mistaken before in thinking that Astro would navigate to the /data/data directory on my phone either. It appears that it does require a file explorer (e.g. EStrongs File Explorer) that can be given superuser permission.

In my experience, there was nothing dangerous about gaining s-off and root on my Evo 4G using the Revolutionary tool, though of course that's no guarantee. :-) If you do that, you can use EStrongs File Explorer to go into the /data/data directory and backup voicemail to the SD card and then copy it back to the /data/data directory when you've installed a different ROM. (I actually just did this myself because I only noticed yesterday that my old voicemails had not made the transition from the stock ROM to the Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 that I'm using now. So now they are restored and they do show the correct original dates.)

But if you don't want to root the phones, it sounds like you might have to wait for the Sprint (or HTC?) developers to make it possible within the voicemail app itself. Although, have you tried asking a Sprint store if their techs could do it for you? It might be possible for them, I would think.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
I am a noob to these forums and this seemed the best place to ask considering it is a Q&A forum. Considering the G2 is a stock android device how hard would it be to make a stock gingerbread ROM for it? Are any devs out there working on it? Is teamdouche working on CM v7 based on 2.3? I have been looking around for any inclination of this but have seen none whilst other devices get gingerbread ported over/compiled for them. Just want to know the status (or hopefully an ETA) on a Gingerbread ROM for the G2. If I posted this in the wrong place or this has been posted before my apologies.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongd:
I don't know if it's out yet, mang... but I'm sure that once it is, it'll be a hot commodity. The modding community is absolutely amazing and I think they seriously need to be hired by some of the mobile companies out there. Their work is fantastic.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PatrickHuey:
well nobody can make a rom or anything until the source code is released...and that hasnt happend yet. as soon as the nexus s comes out (which is this week) then the source code will be extracted from gingerbread and itll be able to be used. right now we just had a SDK file, and that really isnt used for anything but looks. mainly used for themes and such.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
Then why does the EVO have a full working ROM for gingerbread? I believe the DESIRE and the HD2 also have it going.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keinengel:
There isn't a working gingerbread ROM for the EVO, it's just FroYo with some parts ripped from 2.3. Gingerbread will be released in a couple of days along with the Nexus S, after which the AOSP will be ported to existing devices - but it'll still be a few days, if not weeks until something stable comes out.

I wouldn't hold my breath for it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
My apologies for my ignorance. I thought they were actual 2.3 builds considering the XDA posted list says "devices running gingerbread". So absolutly nothing can happen with gingerbread until a device with gingerbread (nexus S) comes out?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddgarcia05:
Cyanogen will not port it to the G2until 2.3 is released for the G2.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keinengel:
Not a problem, you were just asking :)

All we have running Gingerbread right now is the android emulator, from which we can pull apk's and libs, but most of them need tweaking to get them to work on FroYo. Plus I don't know if the market works on Gingerbread.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
Is that an actual statement from teamdouche/cyanogen or just from studying release behavior in the past? When you say release you mean T-mo pushes it as an OTA correct, I know someone on here will "release" 2.3 long before T-mo stamps it for approval.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
So at the moment there is no actual gingerbread (save for the reveiw models floating around phonedog,mobileburn,etc are unboxing) out just froyo with the modified characteristics of gingerbread? Pardon the question if it seems silly, most of the comment went over my head.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AbsolutZeroGI:
I'll bet we have a ported ROM before New Years, usually a huge release like this gets all the attention of the devs. Especially since with perm-root, s-off and several stable 2.2 ROMs, the devs don't have all that much to work on atm.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Team Villain were working on one, but it became clear that there was going to be no way to make Audio work until AOSP is out so its on hold until then.

and without audio a phone is useless, no ringing, no sound in calls, no music etc etc
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
Definatley looking forward to it when Villain gets their hands on the source code. I bet T-mo's is going to be ladened with the same bloatware that their 2.2 install on the G2 had.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidEyez:
Well atleast we have the themes for now, that will hold me over for a couple weeks but not to impressed by the nexus s enough to shell out $520 I might just buy vibrant when functional gingerbread port is out allot cheaper and almost same phone well close anyway.

Honestly I would wait if your shelling out any money for anything samsung just placed a MASSIVE order for tegra 2's today which hints at dualcore phones sometime in q1 or Q2 next year hopefully. Wait for the qualcomm dualcore and nvidia dualcore wars to begin.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osho741:
Anyone know roughly how long it takes google to drop the source in aosp after the sdk is released?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nissan350:
Highly doubt that's true. I came from a CDMA Hero running CM6 RC1 (Froyo) and as most of us know, the lower end devices (such as the Hero), never got an official 2.2, yet there was a fully functional, highly stable CM6 out for it.

Which ran magnificently BTW.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongd:
Ah yeah, those seem to be more like proof of concept. Once a retail version of handsets start coming out with Gingerbread, as well as the source code, I imagine we'll start seeing custom ROMs based off it. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hansalvato:
Thats all i needed to hear...samsung should'nt getanybody money with their softaware build qaulity and support
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaoscreater:
Gingerbread doesn't seem to be very promising though, what's with all this hype around it?? The update seems pretty piss poor to be honest. Nothing much.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
if that's your opinion and your entitled to it, personally i like the performance tweaks, gaming tweaks, and the ui tweaks. I like gingerbread, ergo i want roms with gingerbread.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sleef:
It should also be noted that the G2 isn't quite stock Android. I'm not sure on the specifics but there are apparently HTC elements sprinkled in here and there.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnyDone:
This rumor has been going around the interweb for like months now. But never, not once I have seen the source, could someone post the source (some forum post, wiki site etc. with actual information pls)

(going through the files in system makes it pretty obvious that there is some HTC-related stuff)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
I read a claim that Cyanogen won't use leaked source code, he waits for the official source code release before he ports. But whether that's 100% true or not, I have no idea.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
Is that the general source code for the os (like the source code released with the nexus S for gingerbread) or the source code for gingerbreads adaptation to the phone by htc? Also the G2 is a pure stock device, people called it half froyo because it was released with the tether option grayed out and appeard unrootable or extremely hard to root at any rate. It runs pure stock with a little bloatware but no OS changes.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AbsolutZeroGI:
+1

Like he said there isn't much changed to Android itself. From what I've read, the speed enhancements and UI refinement are going to be make gingerbread worth it all by themselves. A perfect set-up for Honeycomb (which I think we'll get) which is probably going to be the "OMGZORZ, WE GET ALL THAT!" update we've all been waiting for.

I'm excited enough about 2.3 to remain unrooted until a near-stable 2.3 ROM is released and/or we G2/DZ folks get it OTA.

Sweetness!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
3.0 I expect to have a overhaul or two or introduce some new features at least. 2.2 to 2.3 is just a patch in my eyes not that much of a new version. That's why people expecting honeycomb from gingerbread is just as it sounds, unreasonable and impossible.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
So, the source code was released today, is Villain back to working on a G2 ROM W/ Gingerbread?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
Give them a chance lol.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SN4K3B1T3:
**FINGERS CROSSED** that there able to bring some sense to the senseless gingerbread man! i think then people would appreciate sence with the "speed improvements" and sense would no longer be a "heavy" ui overlay...cant wait for GB development...will be testing for sure!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veiger:
Not asking if they are done, just asking if they are back to it considering a villain team member posted that the hit a brick wall on developing it which is lack of source code.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nighte:
Hopefully some ROM's will come out for 2.3 over the Christmas break, would only have time then to test them!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g_grey:
you aren't going to get a sense ROM with 2.3 because we don't have a ROM with 2.3 Sense or source code for sense since it is HTC proprietary, you will most likely have to wait until a new device with sense and running 2.3 out of box is released before getting a gingerbread sense ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SN4K3B1T3:
Thank you for what i already knew...reason why i said fingers crossed...as in hopefully htc releases something...anything with 2.3 and sense or even a leak they could work off of

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ziostilon:
we're gonna hit 2011 in less than a month.

Great, Bell has finally released Froyo, being one of the latest to do so.

Since i didn't really need Kies before, i never installed it, or tried to make connections.

Now i find out about these MTP Driver issues, not having the correct driver..... having to factory wipe your phone etc.

I have the 1.5.3.10103_102 Kies

So basically im in Kies mode, have no SIM card nor external sd card in the phone.

I connect with my PC (WinXP SP3 32-bit). the MTP Application screen on the i9000m just loops on that initializing stage.

----------------------------

I've basically read the majority of the threads and have little to no clue what to do. Since there is no clearly defined solution, as everyone seems to have a different cure

This is like buying an Iphone or an ipod... (whatever) and not being able to connect with iTunes
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hulkmanche:
I had this same problem. The issue was that the MTP Application keeps failing if you have a file on your device with an extension longer than 16 characters.

i.e. filename.reallylongextension

For me, it was the Kobo app that had some long filenames. I deleted the files and then it connected to Kies again. Google the issue and you'll find some forum where someone wrote a little app to show you all the files on your phone that have long extensions.

Hope that helps!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] thequinox:
I know, it's pretty bad isn't it? All I can tell you is what worked for me. Wipe everything :|

I copied all the data off my internal SD, wiped it, did a factory reset, and that worked. I've heard that you just need to go through and remove offending files because Kies can't handle certain length file names or something ridiculous like that, but I'm not going to mess around with that. It's easier just to clear the storage and restore it when you're done using their shoddy program :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] EarlZ:
So I cleared the data under calendar storage and Im looking for a way to just sync my contacts birthday ( link from FB ) to the stock calendar again, could anyone provide a step by step info. thanks!

[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] kura808:
Sorry for bumping up an old thread. I'd like to say thank you for this post. I didn't know if this game worked on the Aria so I was happy to see another Aria user was able to run it. It doesn't have a free version so I didn't want to risk it.

Anyway Game Dev Story is on sale for 50% off ($2.45). The other day it was 75% off. I bought it for 50% because the 75% sale was brief. This game is definitely a steal for that price (normal is like $5 I believe).

This game is about creating your own video game software company. Eventually if you're good enough, you can make your own video game console. You can hire or fire people. You can also boost the stats of your workers. Work on side jobs i.e. ringtone maker lol...It's a fantastic game and I think for the price, everyone should check it out. Runs great on our Arias =)

[Fascinate Android Development] nemesis2all:
Introducing OTB (only the brave) overclocked voodoo5 kernels. These kernels are for DJ05 only. If you want an overclocked kernel you should be able to find what you want here. These kernels are built from jt1134's and supercurio's latest commits.

Not everyone will be able to run all of the overclocks I have listed. In fact only a select few will be able to run the 1250 and 1300 mhz kernels.

Use these kernels at your own risk. I am not responsible if something goes wrong and you break your phone. I am more than willing to try to help you out in the event you do as are most of the people on IRC.

If you so desire these kernels can be run with voodoo disabled. If you are unsure about how to disable voodoo then you should probably not be running these kernels tho.

OTB 1.1 has fix for missing bitmaps in voodoo cwm and some updates to voodoo. What has not changed is clocks and voltages. If you were unable to run at a certain speed before you probably won't be able to handle it now either. For more information check my github.

https://github.com/nemesis2all My GitHub

Big thanks go to jt1134, supercurio, geeknik, saps, MrThrax, Wilshyre, Bryan, and the many testers that have helped me along the way. Without the help of all the great people in the #samsung-fascinate channel I wouldn't have been able to do this.

Hope you enjoy them. If you feel like donating link is below.
[Fascinate Android Development] nemesis2all:
Here are some more kernels I have built. The ul kernels are using the settings adrynalyne used for his comavolt kernels. Which is basically 100mv less than stock for the settings from 100mhz to 800mhz. The sv kernels are all using stock voltages. These kernels are double in size because there is a kernel for recovery included that is at stock clocks and voltages. This is to help prevent you getting locked out of recovery in case your phone can not handle some voltages or clocks I have used in these kernels. Hopefully it is never needed but just think of it as a fail safe (Thanks to JT for the idea and instructions on how to do that). This will probably be the last of these kernels. Next should be aosp when that is ready. Hope you enjoy them and remember flash at your own risk.

Thanks, nemesis! The kernels are fantastic and are the best option for anyone looking for that extra boost in performance. If you're interested in oc I highly recommend you try these kernels, starting with the lower speeds and going higher in increments to see what your phone handles best. These have the latest and greatest cwm recovery for voodoo 5. Just remember not to flash this over any other voodoo unless you're already running voodoo 5. If on anything else you should disable voodoo first and then flash and re-enable voodoo via the awesome recovery from jt1134.

Thanks again to Nemesis2all and all the great devs in irc. You guys make android so much better.

[Fascinate Android Development] nemesis2all:
Setcpu is not required but I recommend using it. Conservative by default. People testing have noticed better performance on Interactive. Other than benchmarks you will not see much of a difference in day to day use from jt's 12/13.

Should I clear out cache in my voodoo folder? it's been built up too much. do i use cwm recovery or remove them manually in sd folder?
[Fascinate Android Development] nemesis2all:
I would leave it there unless you really need the space. I would definitely leave the logs in place for voodoo. Can help if you run into problems with it.
