[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidfanboi:
Well for a start off 2.1 i believe has rolled out everywhere now so even if you look around the dev section you aint getting anywhere without wacking in ya usb cable to ya pc and connected to the phone ofcourse. Install PC Companion which should launch off of your sd card once mounted.

Once thats installed it will say an upgrade is available.

update via pc companion to 2.1

and if root is what your after not just 2.1 update then theres a thread called one click root, its an app for your device called z4root.apk

install that on ya x10 and your rooted with 2.1 my friend

Help,

I'm looking for an application for doing my HD2 to ring every half an hour?

Thanks.
[Streak 5 General] z33dev33l:
Ok, essentially all I want is swype. I dont care if I'm running stock or whatever I just need swype. I bought this phone used and pre-rooted and the dell PC suite software wasnt installed so I cant sync to change the recovery image. I tried manually installing using this

http://android.modaco.com/content/a...recovery-no-adb-no-usb-wirefree/#entry1497226

but I cant seem to find the proper download links and even then the commands (such as CP) are coming back that they dont exist. All I really need is swype so one way or another could someone help me out?
[Streak 5 General] ruskival:
Best advice I can suggest is download the 2.2 rom again can't suggest which one unless u can tell us what rom ur using right now, figuring who ever had the phone before you deleted swype.

Just stay from scratch
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
Why do you need to change the recovery?

Do you have the swype.apk? if so just copy it over to your sd card and using astro file manager (dl it from market) and tap to install the .apk.

Also the Dell Official froyo has swype pre-installed.

What build are you running now (settings-about phone)
[Streak 5 General] z33dev33l:
MY apologies for the confusion. Ok, so what I'm at now is I've currently got 2.2 installed on this. My version is Froyo Beta 1 from DJ Steve which I would love to upgrade but no other recovery screen will boot except for the one that looks like the basic recovery screen but wont flash a rom. I've tried kicking clockwork mod onto there but it goes back to the basic screen and wont flash. I've got SU access and obviously a custom rom but unfortunately I just cant seem to get a real recovery screen onto there...

Also I've gone so far as to follow this http://android.modaco.com/content/d...to-get-your-streak-back-to-factory-condition/ It says it boots the new recovery in but I am still unable to flash my way back to stock. This is the ATT streak if that matters.

Guys,

I am having trouble mounting the Nexus S built in memory. I enabled USB Debugging but when I plug in the phone I don't get the request to mount I used to have on my Nexus One.

Any ideas? I am sure it's something silly I've missed.

Thanks!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaliLove310:
Have you tried a reformat of the "sd"? One of the reviews I saw said that it was treated like a SD card on any other Android phone. I don't think there are any special instructions on mounting it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lokto7:
Jealous!!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlChengis:
I just tried formatting the memory and the "preparing storage" message flashed on the status bar. I then unplugged and plugged the phone back and I finally got the message to enable file transfer.

I don't know if this was caused by the format or if it would have happened by power cycling the phone after enabling USB Debugging, but thanks either way!

:)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mazodude:
Have you pulled down the notification bar to see if there is a note there about usb? (besides debugging)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlChengis:
There wasn't at first, but between enabling USB Debugging, formatting and unplugging/plugging back it appeared.

Hey Chengis, hope you're enjoying the phone :)

Can you do me a favor and check if brazilian Portuguese is included as a system language? Thanks
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlChengis:
Don't be my friend... it just seems like a Galaxy S on steroids. If it weren't for the bigger screen I'd probably keep using my trusty NexusOne.

The non-expandable memory is a step backwards, I'd like to meet the people that made this decision when the phone was being designed. I just don't understand.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackOtaku:
...This only makes me more jealous. :p
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlChengis:

Yes, it is. At first I thought it wasn't since all I saw was "Portuguese" without specifications, but when I selected it it became "Portuguese (Brazil)". You're good.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mr.galaxys:
okay im having problems unlocking sgs on ugjk4 on sgs unlock app i get sorry no code found unknown error ??
[Galaxy S I9000 General] android.francis:
that app no longer (or is having a hard time working) with FROYO firmwares. I used it to unlock mine when I was still in Eclair.

Maybe you should revert to a stock Eclair? Anyways, once you have the unlock and freeze code, make sure you write it down and save it in your PC.

Note: When I flashed to Froyo using Odin, network locked re-appeared and I needed to punch in the exact code I got when I was in Eclair. Now, It's totally unlocked. No more unlock code after that initial flash to Froyo.

Wish you luck! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mr.galaxys:
okay new too this please understand i think got what u mean but how would i revert back to eclair never did this!!! so basically your saying be more easy to go back eclair then root it then SGS unlock will work then write code paper update back to froyo and unlock would work still.....is this correct ??
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mr.galaxys:
update

i think figured out why get error code silly me forgot put sim!!! okay now what Sim must be inserted SGS unlock app (original Sim that phone locked to) or any Sim will do sorry i am new to this was i phone user for while:D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] android.francis:
With or without sim, you should be able to get the code since the code itself is for the phone and is embedded in the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mr.galaxys:
hmmm....then 2.2 sgs app doesnt work??any other ideas i dont wann downgrade just 2 unlock???
[Galaxy S I9000 General] android.francis:
It's not a permanent downgrade. Flash back to eclair, unlock your phone, write down the unlock code and freeze code then flash back to froyo.

Don't forget to back up your EFS folder to your SD card and laptop.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mr.galaxys:
how would one do this(downgrade) i am new to this thanks...

[Q] SuperOneClick vs OCLF

Hey Guys, I have the i9000m through Bell Mobility, and today I rooted it using SuperOneClick. It ran and said completed successfully, and installed a SuperUser app on my phone.

What is the difference between this and the OCLF? Does SuperOneClick include some sort of "lag fix"? Is one method superior to the other?

Cheers!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Prasad:
OCLF does lagfix your phone, yes. However, it is outdated. I would recommend you to try z4root and z4mod.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kops:
I've heard about Z4 from a few friends, couldn't find it on the Market so I went with SuperOneClick. Thank you for the suggestion - I will probably try this one if I need to do it again.

I've also learned that most third party ROM's include LagFixes in their Kernel, eliminating the need for them in the rooting process.

Are there any real differences in the rooting apps?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xedd:
What is your end-goal?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kops:
End goal, to educate myself on a few fronts of Android phones. I'd like to have enough knowledge to root, and install new ROM's (which I can confidently do). I'd also like to have a good understand of reverting to factory ROM and settings (if you could point me a to a descriptive thread on this it would be much appreciated!).

Just wondering if one rooting method is superior to the others :o
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Perror:
Hello, can anyone of you help me please? I see someone mentioned z4root. Now this is my problem:

I downloaded z4root, ran it and it seems like it started but after few seconds my phone just vibrated and then it turned me to my home screen, which means i wasnt able to root.

Could anyone be so kind and help me out with it?

My firmware version is 2.2.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kops:
Sorry - haven't tried it myself. But, you can use SuperOneClick if you like with a simple instructional video

[Q] is superoneclick safe to root?

Hi, I want to root my froyo JPO with Superoneclick in order to install lagfix,

but the main problem is my 3 combo buttons not working..

Is it safe to do so?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kops:
I would work on getting your 3 button combo working before attempting any type of modifications. On the odd chance something goes wrong you need that to enter recovery mode or download mode. I believe there are a few faqs on it around the site.

As for super one click, I've used it several times flawlessly
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gtg2:
Agreed. There's a reason the 3-button fix is a pinned post in every i9000 forum. Fix that BEFORE doing anything.

WRT superoneclick, I've also never had any problems with it although your mileage may vary. Note that there are easier rooting solutions available although none appear to support as many firmware versions as superoneclick.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XOPEACEANDLOVE:
i was wondering about upgrading my old phone to a phone that is from a different carrier (Rogers) and it's in a different city (Edmonton, AB {I live in Yellowknife, NT and we only have Bell up here})...

so I have the samsung vice on a uber 25 extended hours plan which includes: 3 way calling, call waiting, sys access fee $6.95, 911 fee $0.75(we don't even have 911 up in Yellowknife), personal email (but it's fcked up and won't work), personal IM (barely use it), 50 bonus minutes. fun 20 with mobile browser included: mobile browser usage, message centre, call display, image messaging, picture messaging, media pack, incl. messages. all for $25 a month.

i was thinking of deleting a few of these features from the mybell site so i could pay less every month but it said I can't customize any of it. :/ and I was going to look at my rate plan and it wasn't even listed there (same with my phone).

but the main thing i was going to ask was if I get the samsung focus and unlock it and put it on bell, how am i going to use it with no data plan? the plan and phone i have now is a really old one, so i don't know what to do. would I be able to add a data plan for like $10 bucks? will Bell get mad at me if I don't use a phone from them?

i'd really appreciate it if you'd help me.

[Epic 4G General] The Lepricon:
Ok, was getting ready to flash a new ROM (ViperROM Trinity), and saw I needed to first flash DK28 modem and PIT(whatever those are?), anyway, installed ODIN, loaded the files like it said (only, it said use modem.bin, all I had was modem.tar, but seemed to work) and now my DATA is super slow. I used to get about 1Mb down and over 600 k up on 3G and 6-8mb down and 1.3mb up on 4G, now I'm getting 60k down and 150k up on 3G and 600k down and 600k up on 4G.

Also, have Signal Status Bar app installed, gives me my dbm for signal, Usually the CDMA and EVDO are about the same, but now I can have good CDMA (-70 or so) but I am only showing -1dbm on EVDO all the time, it never changes.

I have flashed back to stock Eclair, up to the leaked stock Froyo, a rooted stock Froyo, and now using Viper Trinity ROM, nothing seems to help.

I honestly don't know if I was having this problem before I flashed the modem and PIT or not, but nothing I do fixes it. I have been all over the place today traveling as far as 40 miles from home, still same everywhere.

FWIW, I had already upgraded to the leaked stock Froyo ROM before I used ODIN to flash the DK28 modem and PIT, I just didn't realize I didn't need to do that before flashing the ROM since I already had it. :(

Any ideas out there?
[Epic 4G General] Vipermuscle83:
Download the data governor fix from ViperRom's thread. Follow the directions. Just make sure to take it easy on data. Don't constantly download large files.
[Epic 4G General] decalex:
hm, I'll try this. Ya, my 3g data speeds have gone down to around 20-30 kb/sec on average... You think this might help it?

It doesn't seem like the data problem is a "governing" issue.. But could anyone elaborate on what this actually does, or what the data problem is?

Thx for the tip!

Sent from the future.
[Epic 4G General] decalex:
Edit: applied viper's governor fix, and will continue to test- initial speed tests seem faster, but still under 100kbytes/sec down, about 70 kb up.

[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
I wonder if since you just reflashed if you are syncing google/fb/twitter stuffs. and its slowing you down.
[Epic 4G General] DotMpeg:
I noticed it too, I get around 40kb down and that sucks a lot, luckily I get 4g at work
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
show off.

Some of us have to drive 100 miles to get near 4g. :mad::(:mad:
[Epic 4G General] decalex:
no-- the stuff I'm syncing didn't change before/after flash, but I have most turned off:

Account sync: only Gmail (I do contacts and calendar manually)

No Facebook sync (..but I wonder what the SNS service is).

No twitter syncing.

Google Voice widgetservice and updateservice are the only other extras I can think of.

The last speed test I did, I was able to get over 100kb/s down. The odd thing is, my up speed has stayed the same. Before flashing Viper's fix, my down was about half my up. As of last test, my up is about twice my down kb/s (which seems a little more "normal").

yes.. ditto. except, I just have to find a spot and stand very very still.
[Epic 4G General] The Lepricon:
Well, I hate when I struggle with a problem for a day or two, then post the question, then right after wards I figure it out.

That's what happened though. A little bit after I posted the question I tried Update Profile, and that fixed it. Go figure....

Anyhow, I also installed the data governor fix as recommended and it seems to have upped my speeds a bit. I am now getting over 1.2mbs down, and nearly 800k up. Not too bad for 3G. Haven't tested 4G yet....

Thanks to all for the help.

Will this work on a rooted 2.1 rom?
[Nook Color General] Bytion:
Yesterday I got my NC, I am living in France so have to order it from amazon, takes about 5 days.

1st thing I notice it is much heavier than my sony PRS600, one hand holding is tough for me, for some reasons I need all my handheld dev to be light weight as much as possible, NC is however acceptable.

Screen is great, this is the main reason I pick it, NC doesn't disappoint me, and touch is very sensitive and accurate.

hardware, this isn't much to say, for that price I guess it's a great deal.The issues are buttons and SD slot, no classic android hardware buttons really troubles me after rooting, and which genius come out with that SD slot design?:mad:

OS, sort of sucks, don't know it's the 2.1's problem or what, everything is a bit slow and lag, I hope 2.2 will fix them abit like your guys said, I really do.

software: as a ereader it's original softwares work fine, reading is good, pdf is a bit lag, video play back is good, but 720p video can only play smoothy in MP4 format, only problem is my comic books don't works on NC.I guess I need find a good app for this.

So last night I root the NC, using the auto nooter it wasn't hard at all, but there is a strange bug, after I reboot the NC, the Youtube stop working, can't even run it. I do remeber it worked fine just after rooting.

Another thing is some app on my NC have no sounds, sometime they works fine after a reboot, but after a while they always stop making any sounds, the OS sounds are still there, only not works in apps.:confused:

Over all I think I am happy with the new toy, gona buy one for my mom too, just wait for I fix the sounds and install Plants vs Zombies for her:D

Thx for reading this, and sorry for my english.:D
[Nook Color General] starlabs:
No android hardware buttons:

- There is an app posted in the nook dev subforum called SoftKeys - works great. It overlays the buttons on the screen.

No comic viewer:

- There's a couple. Search for ACV (Droid Comic Viewer)

- Uninstall, then reinstall. Easiest if you have ASTRO file manager or something similar

- Dunno, haven't encountered the ones you mentioned, so far.

Just purchased 1 for my wife 2 nights ago. I ended up playing with it too much that she suggested that I go ahead and buy one for myself, so I did. Planning to root it shortly.

I was really looking to get a galaxy tab but after playing with the nook I was pretty satisfied. I just could not justify spending another $300 or so for the tab, considering CES is also around the corner and new products will probably be unveiled. Looking to get a new phone with the $300 I saved. I am using an HD2 on Android at the moment and will wait till after the new year.

The Nook will be used mainly for reading, some surfing, maybe a few movies. Overall, I am happy with the purchase.

No comic viewer:

I tried ACV, it always show me run out of memory after a while, and it's really running slow

I use astro myself, but strangly I can't find youtube in app folder, all the other app are there....

my friend use a HTC desire HD, he gives me that game, don't test it myself, cuz NC is my 1st android dev, I wana install it after all the things are done,besides u need 2.2 OS to run it, it's a port from PC.
[Nook Color General] Admiralvic:
Maybe its me but I like the SD card slot. I mean its without a doubt not that easy to put it in and take it out but atleast its better than it being completely in the machine and unable to extract if it doesnt eject

as far as youtube... I think its easier using zeam but thats just me XD

hold it

move it to the trash icon

wait for it to say "uninstall"

uninstall

adb over the apk

enjoy
