[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Bimboy:
Attaching a copy of what mine looks like. If it doesn't look like this, you've got something messed up on your build. Use the Menu softkey, and not the magnifying glass icon on the top right, which is not really in a usable area of the screen.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] fprice02:
Looks nothing like yours. It is the actual search screen from the Nook build. I will flash 2.2.6 and see if that works. more to follow.....

After reading many posts, some are deciding to keep it and some don't. Let's start a poll!:D
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
You might not get too many ex-owners as they won't be on this forum anymore. :)

Still, I'd love to get a poll of just how many users are out there, and how many have modded it. I can't go on firmware downloads as there could be multiple downloads from the same person.
[G Tablet General] tyy10002:
Good point! As long as you are not a ex-owner, we are good!;)
[G Tablet General] dcom222:
I was an owner, then became an ex-owner, then an owner again.

I got my first one in November when Sears first had them. This was before there was really any mods going on. I kept it about a week and liked it except the WiFi would error out most of the time. I returned it and got a Hauwei S7. The S7 was actually pretty nice as it had a good out-of-the-box experience (full market, gapps, etc...), but in the end the terrible battery life got me to return it.

So I got another gtab after monitoring these forums and seeing such good progress with the mods. I got it home and the touch screen just didn't work right (top half hardly responded to touch). I exchanged it the next day and everything worked on this one except it would not wake from sleep. I tried all of the various ROMs on it and was happy, but after a week or two the sleep issue just got too annoying for me so I returned it again. Finally I seem to have one where everything works - no Wifi, sleep, or touch screen issues so far.

Right now I've just side loaded some apps I like to use, but otherwise it's completely stock. I was planning to put the VegaN ROM on it after the OTA update on Dec 19th or 20th comes out just so I can check it out on a stock tab, but I don't think I can wait and will probably update it this weekend.

a update that will make the gtab run better ..

Now it's a waiting game. :D
[G Tablet General] shanghei:
I am in the in between keeping it and taking it back. I am going out of town tomorrow, and the battery life on this will keep me occupied on the plane. Wish it would play x264 to make up for the lack of quality of the screen but an optimized rom wont be out by tomorrow. I am going to be buying a nook color soon in a few weeks because I think I am more into 7" tablets after playing with it in the store.
[G Tablet General] tyy10002:
As long as it is not a hardware defect, I am definitely keeping it as I am not a big fan of ipad

I am happy with the the vegan rom and the screen issue doesn't bother much anyways.

I might be returning mine tomorrow office depot up the street from my house where I bought it pulled it for a manufacters recall and offered me my money back, which makes me think that this is more than a software issue that an update can't fix.
[G Tablet General] Reginhild:
There is a thread with a fix for those having that issue. Basically, add an empty text file named calibration.ini to the root of sdcard2 (your micro SD card) then reboot and don't touch the screen while it boots. You should see great improvement. Then delete the file or add a .bak to the file name so calibration does not run again unless you need it after a rom flash.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] huggs:
I put the sd card from my HD2 into my gf's rooted mytouch 3g slide to transfer some files onto my card, because the usb port on my hd2 is broken. So i turned off her slide, put my card in, booted up, transfered the files, powered off the slide and put her card in it again. When i booted it back up, it took a long time to boot, and when it did, all her a2sd apps were gone.

so i tried the terminal command 'a2sd reinstall' and it returned the msg that the ext2 isn't mounted.

i tried 'mount -t ext2' and variations thereof, terminal emu came back with some thing about mount -t, -r, and -w options, i tried all3 to no avail

a2sd help didn't give me any viable options either.

so does anybody know how to manually remount the ext2 via terminal emulator, or any other way for that matter?

I have searched xda, google, read a bunch, and don't know what to do now:confused:

can one of you smart ppl help me please?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmay2:
Hi,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S. I performed the lag fix (V2.2+) on my phone and everything ran successfully, but today I decided to undo the lag fix just to compare the results.

So I undid the lag fix, and my phone rebooted.

But when I was finished comparing the results, I decided to redo the lag fix. The problem is, the option to apply the lag fix was red, making it unavailable. When I clicked on it, it said 'You already appear to have another lag fix installed! (/system/bin/playlogos1 less than 5KB)'. So, I decided to attempt to undo the lag fix again.

But the undo the lag fix was also red! I clicked it, and it said 'You do not appear to have a V2 lag fix installed! (free space on /data does not match /dbdata/ext2data)'.

When I tried to Remove EXT2 Tools, just to see if that would help, it was unsuccessful. I really want the lag fix again, but how?

I tried removing the playlogos1 file from my phone, and reinstall it using OCLF, but it didn't work, because the lag fix buttons were still red.

Please help!!!

Sorry for the long question, but I really need help.

By the way, I am a big newbie, and I don't understand all of this ROM and kernel business, so try to keep the answer simple if possible!

Thanks,

Katie :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dupel:
Wow, your hardcore! How about deleting some other essential boot files? Just so that you can write another post in wrong forum.

Good advice - dont use old and unnecessary lagfix any more.

Crap advice - press "restore boot animation" or something like this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmay2:
seriously, take it easy. my quadrant standard now is like 800, but with the lag fix it was roughly 2000, so it does make a difference, especially while booting up.

i tried restoring boot animation, but that didn't work.

and im sorry if i posted this in the wrong forum, but whatever, its the first one that came to mind :o
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dupel:
Thats why there is STOP!! Before You Post, Read This NOW!! topic on freaking top of the page. hough apparently we need to have atleast 10 of them for people to notice it.

800 kind of make it sound like your on eclair, probably god awful old too.

And quadrant doesnt mean anything.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] R64:
Could you be more rude. I know it is posted in the wrong section but you could have been a bit nicer.

OnTopic, I don't know what the problem is. You could look in the Q&A section or ask the author of the program who has probably knows the most about this. And if you are on a really old firmware there is probably a offical update for it.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] joedhimself:
Sorry if I missed the answer to this. What happened to the soft buttons on the bottom of the vegan home page?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Sprdtyf350:
Those were part of the overlay that Advent put on there version. Sort of like the stuff Viewsonic put on with TapnTap but not as awful. I don't see where they were real useful because I don't think they were changeable.

I wish to learn to develop for Android. I've tried the App Inventor(in fact, I got into it when it wasn't released for the general public), and it's kinda hard to use. I want to learn how to program, and I have very limited experience with programming(none at all?), but I'm very fluent with Android. I can do a lot, but I want to do a lot more, including possibly making my own ROM. Any places that are good to start?

A reponse is going to take time. 35 minutes isn't a lot of time. Have patience. xP
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthonyandrews:
I agree...

And to the Original Poster.... here are some tips....

1. Use the search function...there are many forums that help with this, and may already have the info you need.

2. Read the FAQ's, as this is one of the most FAQ...

3. When posting a question, try to include more details...In this case, you will need to know what version of HBOOT you have. If you have one older than 2.02 (meaning it is NOT 2.02), then you can easily use www.unrevoked.com.

So, if you look at the forum topics you will see topics like HOW TO ROOT - , followed by numbers like 2.02, or 2.10...and sometimes a catchy phrase like "How to Root: FLY LIKE A KITE EDITION"

There is also one called UNIVERSAL AUTO ROOT..... try one of these topics that meet you HBOOT needs.

To check you HBOOT version, turn off you phone. (let go of all buttons), then press the VOLUME DOWN button and hold it, while you press POWER ON...

on the white screen you will see the HBOOT version number...this should give you a shove in the right direction.

I have a droid x "obvious" after updating fission to 2.4 it was all jacked up and crazy. So I tried to use the sbf I used before to get the orginal fission which is.

sbf 2.3.15

Rsd says everything took, but it's stuck in a boot loop.

I'm on bootloader 30.03.

any advice/ help on how to get it out of the boot loop?
[Droid X General] DRTMI:
Pull your battery, and while powering back up hold the home key until the exclamation mark pops up, and then do a factory reset / wipe data. I get a boot loop every time I sbf and have to do that to get it to boot up.
[Droid X General] robertwhitten87:
alright got the explanation point... but how do i do the rest?

edit: found it! //hasn't looped back yet but still loading.... and during this edit it popped back up... THANK THE HELL OUT OF YOU!!!! haha
[Droid X General] kdkinc:
you really need to move from 2.3.15.

Verizon did.

Check team black hat for tons of sbf info . MyDroidWorld
[Droid X General] robertwhitten87:
don't you have to be on boot loader 30.04 to update to the latest?
[Droid X General] pjsockett:
The newer fission builds are based off of 2.3.34 so the components from .15 will cause issues. You need to upgrade to the current Verizon Kernel, Baseband, and Bootlaoder for Fission 2.4 to work properly. Check Angdroid's post here for the pieces.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jake24:
So i have rooted and flashed roms on 4 evos and a hero without having a problem with using UNREVOKED3. Today i attempted to root my aunt's new Evo for her using UNREVOKED3 and i kept getting error messages that said either "internal error misc." Or "failed to flash recovery image". I tried to redownload the software and root the phone several times without any luck. O checked the supported radio versions and her version was supported by the software. I also notoced that when putting the phone into hboot it already had an option to select recovery. I selected recovery and i only got the screen woth a phone and an explanation point on it.

I also tried another method that i found where you put the PC36IMG on the root of the sd card and then let the phone boot into hboot. The phone is then supposed to recognize the image and load it. When it did this it came up with an error message thay said "loading failed image is older press volume up to reboot".

I know the phone is brand new. Its the one with a white back on it and she bought it from a sprint store. Does anyone have any suggestions to why this os occuring or another way to root the phone?

Thanks,

Jake

If irreparable please suggest the most reliable smart phone in your opinion and/or by experience.

So I've just updated my phone via kies to 2.2.1.

Has any one else noticed or even experienced that when you pinch to zoom or scroll down the page really fast the rendering goes all over the place... like you will get the blank border for a few seconds and the writing goes really blurred.

I've never had this problem before with 2.1 of 2.2.

It's not a bug, it is a feature that makes the zooming more responsive. A snapshot of the page is being scaled, rather than dynamically re-rendering it.

Download the icon he posted (or any icon for that matter) onto your SD card and then long press the icon you want to change on your dock. Choose change icon and then custom icon. Find the one you want in the gallery and bingo.

Also, if you want to change desktop icons you can do it via Desktop Visualizer.
[Epic 4G General] decalex:
I think he's talking about the "on call" screen -- if a contact doesn't have a photo associated. If this is what you're looking for-- it's a little more complicated-- would need to be be edited through the framework-res.apk.

specifically, it should be in system/framework/framework-res.apk/drawable-hdpi/ic_contact_picture.png

are you using a specific theme or rom on your epic?
[Epic 4G General] ecooce:
I was going to try avoiding this since its been talked about.But if you are going o modify your framework-res.apk,you can use 7zip to extract a framework-res.apk where the image you want is at,find the image you want,(HD)save that image to desktop.Then open an archive with 7zip (not extract)find the the folder where the image you want replaced is at,now drag the image you have saved to the folder you have opened in 7zip (not extracted)and there you go,no need for resigning the framework-res.apk...I hope that is an easy process for you.

I got a blue android in my theme for the default picture. Theres 2 in framework-res.apk 4 in phone.apk 2 in dialertab.apk 4 in contacts.apk. I might be wrong with the numbers but I'm close and all those apps need the changes made as different functions call for different images

Have already looked at Folder Organizer and SiMi Folder Widget but don't think those are well-enough integrated into the OS.
