[Legend General] QkSi1ver:
Anyone of you BELL users knows if the bugs still exist ?

I'd like to try the CM stable or NIghtly provided all of the commonly used functions are *usable* ( or have work arounds)

Right now i'm on blayo and this is the only ROM i used since i rooted a while back... never bothered with the other ROMS because they each have something not working ... but i'd like to try something new for a change :)

CM7 and Bell

I just installed CM7 and without ANY config, it recognized my phone number, as well as my voicemail. I am on BELL in the Hamilton, Ontario area.

I haven't done a voicemail notification test yet, but if I have problems, I will post them here.
[Legend General] taketheleap:
Voicemail works.

Just got a voicemail and I *DID* receive a text message notification.

I am on CM7.1.0-RC1-GalaxyS, I9000, Bell Canada.
[Legend General] QkSi1ver:
Cool so this version has everything working ?

Any problems with Long GPS Fix?

Also let me know where to get this version?

Thanks
[Legend General] taketheleap:
Haven't tried a GPS fix yet, but you can get this version directly from Cyanogen:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/24052-cyanogenmod-7-for-the-samsung-galaxy-s-v710-rc1-26-june-2011/

Ensure you follow the instructions and for the love of god, back up your phone.

A word of caution: CM7 repartitions your SD card. This matters because if you ever choose to go back to another ROM and/or to Stock, you will need to find a ROM that has everything (bootloaders, ROM, kernel, etc). The only method I have found to work for going backwards is this one: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/15707-how-to-restore-to-stock-on-your-gt-i9000m/

If you back everything up and then restore it, you should never have to go back.

Enjoy.
[Legend General] electrona:
Does anyone on Virgin Mobile see that it says Bell when connected to the network on the notification screen. Is there a way to rename it or correctly say Virgin like when running a stock rom.

It worked on Gingerbread, but says bell on CM7 and CM9.

I'm using a GT-I9000M.
[Legend General] Asovse1:
Bell owns Virgin. Virgin is therefore a subsidiary of Bell. It was bound to happen anyway. Sorry friend, guess you're out of luck on that.

Though on CM7 you can use custom carrier labels to choose whatever you want to see on the carrier display. Look for it in MENU > Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Interface > Custom Carrier Label...or something similar. Sorry, my phone's off, I don't want to check.

You must be running CM 7.2 or a recent nightly to have this option, however.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruisant:
When I type an accentuated character the number of available characters decrease. As an example, when I start a new sms I have 0/160 characters available. Then if I type an 'á' the counter reads 1/70 but if I type an 'a' it reads 1/160. I think I had the same problem in my old Nokia phone and I solved it deselecting unicode charset or something like that but I can't find that option on the desire z... can anyone help me?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] missparker76:
I have the same problem in French.

There is no solution but praying that Google decides to fix this. There's an open issue on the Google Code page here http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6522 but few people starred it. The more people will star it the more chances we have to see it fixed someday.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keinengel:
It's not a Google issue. The problem lies with the encoding of those characters.

The "content" part of the SMS can have a maximum of 160 characters when encoded in 7-bit ASCII. This means each character takes up 7 bits. However, the standard ASCII encoding only included the basic latin characters. Letters with diacritics need to be encoded in unicode (16 bits/character), which limits the SMS size to 70 characters.

Hello, i tryed to install androir stock calendar.

i deleted calendar, calendarprovider and semccalendar vanilla or somethink like that

now i cannot install the stock calendar and calendarprovider.apk

can anyone help?

i can use ADB to install id (with rootexplorer i cannot copy the files to system/app even it i am rooted

Help please
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] louiscypherbr:
Did you delete apps from system/app or moved to /data/app and then uninstalled it?

The correct way to remove default apps is to move then from system/app to data/app, reboot and the uninstall it opening settings/manage applications.

If you just deleted apps from system, its better to repair your phone with SEUS and remove stock apps with correct way. Believe me, I removed apps before without uninstalling then and system was sucking my battery very fast. Just make a repair, uninstalled things correctly and now my phone is so much better.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] shivenjuneja:
Wat is the need of removing the app make backup of that and replace wid the android default calendar...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mclaudio:
Yes i think i have deleted directly from System/app :-(

but i think there is a way to install it with ADB no?

maybe i can put original SE calendar and remove again the correct way?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] louiscypherbr:
I didn't try it, but I think u can...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bahkyp:
Did the "rm /system/app/Candendar.apk" and wondered why it didn't work.

The system keeps some files in memory and they survive the "rm" command. Fixed this by doing;

1. Setting> Applications > Manage Applications and removing all calendar named apps, (there were about 4 still including com.sonyericsson.calandar!)

2. Restart phone.

3. Copy standard Calendar and CalandarProvider across (I used scp and dropbear, you could do the same with adb or rootexplorer) Files are here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9434204&postcount=2

4. Restart phone. (I didn't need to run the "install" command, files were "chmod 644" already)

Now have the standard calendar rather than the SE calendar! :)

Hi folks,

I have a few question here.

1) I love to have a look inside Android internals (lets say v2.3).

For eg, I may want to change the way lock screen looks or works.

or change the way menu works/see (icons).

As of now, i dont have an android phone. I love to test that in an emulator.

How can i do that?

2) I have an apk file. How will work/run that in an emulator?

Thanks a lot.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] benjymous:
There are instructions for the Android emulator here:

http://www.androidguys.com/2010/12/15/android-emulator/

Once that's running, you should just need to open a cmd prompt, and type

adb install nameofmy.apk

(if you get an 'adb' is not a recognised command, you'll need to CD to the 'platform-tools' folder from the sdk first)
[Galaxy Tab General] tekomni:
I recently picked up an AT&T tab with the intent of making phone calls and using my unlimited data plan on it on the AT&T network. It took me a while to read all the posts on XDA and understand the process and the Odin tool before I felt comfortable flashing it. I thought I'd outline the steps that worked for me and maybe save others some time

I very well could have forgotten a step and I am in no way responsible if you damage your tab. Doing this will void the warranty

All credit for this working goes to clubtech, samfirmware.com, rotohammer and CLShortFuse with special thanks to clubtech.

The original, main thread can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=847273 and should be read through in it's entirety if problems occur.

These instructions are designed to use with an AT&T branded samsung galaxy tab on the AT&T network only

1. Root phone using SuperOneClick (courtesy CLShortFuse)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

You will need to turn the phone on, unplug from computer, enable usb debugging and run the program

2. perform a rotobackup (courtesy rotohammer)

instructions: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=850359&page=5

You will need the android sdk installed and be comfortable running a few commands

3. Download files indicated in first post of thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=847273

4. Decompress the file P1000XWJJ4

4. Put the phone into download mode by holding power and volume down for a while

5. Insert your non-prepaid sim card with voice and data plan and run odin (odin is used to flash the device):

a. click pit button and select the file "P1_add_hidden.pit".

b. click pda, phone and csc buttons selecting the file names indicated in the screenshot attached here.

c. Check Re-Partition

d. Click Start

6. The phone should restart and be in Russian

7. Put the phone in download mode again

8. In Odin, uncheck repartition selected and click Reset

9. Click PDA and select the file P1000OXAJK5.tar

10. Click start

11. After success and the phone restarts, put phone in download mode again

12. Click reset in Odin, click modem and select modem.bin from the file modem_bell_i9000.zip and click start

Phone should reset and be wonderful.

Sorry what i mean is from my hd 7 already found RUU and the ROM it's in the bootloader right?so how do we extract it from our device and convert it to custom like ansar ,cotulla and the rest.Seems interesting to hack or develop like them.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] ceesheim:
you can't get a rom from a wp7 phone (like you could with wm phones)

I also still don't understand what you want , al the rom's ansar has are just stock rom's.

as I see ansar only replace imfgs.bin from other stock roms so that you have different radio/spl

the only stock roms that can be modded as of now are pre/nodo roms (we have no tools to mod mango roms)

thats way ansar rom's need to be updated to mango AFTER flash.

Im rocking Oxygen 1.0.3 and i got S-OFF

-I used psfMod as my main recovery for a long time and have never had an issue.

-When i was on OpenDesire i had no issues with Nandroids

-I recently updated my psfMod to the newest version http://www.klutsh.com/download/

-I recently updated to Oxygen 1.0.2 (it has been since updated to 1.0.4)

I only started noticing the problems once i had those 2 updates. I first noticed the problem when i tried to restore an OLD nandroid backup of OD4.0.36 and it booted into android, everything got a force close and it rebooted. No nandroids were restorable without everything force closing. SO i wiped everything and updated to Oxy 1.0.2 with a fresh install. I made a nandroid and tried to restore it, and that failed too.

I have tried installing the latest Clockwork 2.5.1.8 and that too results in the same problems.

Im at a total loss of what to do :( It's hard to play around with Android without being able to create Nandroids!

So, just messing around after i wiped my phone to install a different ROM, I did a backup of my wiped phone. If their is nothing on the phone, what is it actually backing up?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibemad1:
It's backing up the /system directory (mostly) along with the bootloader and clockworkmod recovery. The "wipe" option simply deletes everything on your cache and data partitions. You use it when:

~ You want to switch from (example) a rom to a different kind of rom, say virtuitous to cyanogenmod

~ You want to start from scratch again

Clockworkmod wouldn't let you delete your system partition without installing a new rom... this would be a bad idea :)

You can restore and boot off of that recovery you just made. It'll boot up with the "touch the android to begin" and google account setup wizard.

Is only to use the ClassyKitchen free version for windows.

I found it here:

https://xdaforums.com/chef-central/android/tool-classykitchen-android-roms-t3862584

Basically, after to open the program, you will choose "create new project" on the tab "Projects utils", and choose the firmware from PC or from mobile root. So, the program will extract the folders and files to PROJECT/system folder, and you will can access them by windows explorer, including the app folder with all original apks.

I was looking for a way to restore the calculator apk after delete it before to find another to replace it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emkorial:
In the interest of future people who find this post ...

This is missing a step. You need to launch ClassyKitchen, Click New Project, you can skip the name, then it will ask you to load the ROM. Click the "Browse this PC" button and select the zip file of the ROM. It takes a while for it to load.

It will ask you for a "Name to see while flashing", just put whatever

When it is done, you can close ClassyKitchen, and then look in the ClassyKitchen folder using Windows Explorer, under PROJECT, then system, then app or priv-app and find your apks
