I did a Support Chat with T-Mo just yesterday. They had me remove the SD card (I couldn't unmount either), reboot and then do Factory Data Reset with the card still removed. (Settings/Privacy/Factory Data Reset)

So far today it's been working fine. I should add that I was able to Odin back to Stock when the problems first appeared almost a month ago. (Stock blows)

Installed Firefox beta from the Firefox site, now my g Tablet is boot looping... Running vegantab 1.0.0 beta 3.

What do I do to fix the boot loop? A user data wipe? If you need any more info please ask.

I love my gTablet with vegantab on it... thanks to everyone, especially the xda devs.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] huntar:
OK, figured out that the loop was not directly Firefox related. I ended up wiping and reloading Vegantab and installed Firefox first with no problems. Not sure what caused the loop, but thanks to all the tools the xda folks have provided I was up and running again quickly.

Now Firefox just needs to get the Flash plugin working in the mobile browser...

[General Questions and Answers] SnowToad:
I've got a HTC Legend and have been looking around at guides on rooting/custom ROMS etc. I've got some questions, most are probably not device-specific.

1. From the Modaco Legend Rooting Guide:

Is it possible to keep the ROM I currently have (stock HTC Sense), but just have it rooted? (So I can do backup before flashing new ROM) Or does rooting have to involve flashing a new 'rooted' ROM and loosing everything you had before?

2. Also from that guide:

Then how do I get a custom recovery so I can do NANDROID backups? Because the Modaco custom Froyo ROM says it requires a custom recovery (Clockwork) while the Modaco rooting guide says it doesn't let you flash one..

Or how do I get write access to /system? is this necessary for some features of root?

3. With Modaco custom Foroy ROM:

Whereas other ROMS:

Is there any noticeable difference between 3.14 and 3.15?

4. Modaco Custom Ingredients for Online Kitchen allows you to put stuff into /data, /system.

Can this be done later anyway? (pushing files there through ADB)

Are there any advantages to having apps installed here? (e.g. if I want to use Launcher Pro as default launcher and not stock, Handcent instead of Messages etc, does it provide any performance advantages? And how would links to market etc for updating work with this?

Thanks for any help!
[General Questions and Answers] Diamond_dawg:
Yes you can keep your rom after rooting, its not needed to change your rom

You can get rom manager from the market and flash clockwork recovery

3.15 may be a bit faster, but you may not be able to notice the difference
[General Questions and Answers] SnowToad:
Thanks for the quick reply.

How do I do this? in the rooting guide it says:

so how do I root without flashing a new ROM? it also says in the guide:

So maybe it is not possible for Legend?

Ok cool

Is there any actual changelog?

Hi guys, I'm a noob with the forum and with Android.

I noticed there is an app for HTC HD2 that allows to run any Android ROM from an SD card without flash it onthe phone.

The app is called SuperRAM.

[Epic 4G Themes] optmsprim2:
*Update* 12/20/10: Mammon and a454nova have been kind enough to include my animations in their respective roms so I decided to update those to be generic "Android Froyo" animations so if anyone likes them on some other rom they can use them without confusion :D

I have the generic supernova up now, the bonsai animation will be up tomorrow as my computer is chugging away slimming down those pngs!

Hey everybody!

Now that we have some good, maturing Froyo ROMs I decided to make a couple of animations for the boot and shutdown processes, despite the fact that the rarity of restarting our phones usually means we're flashing a new ROM or we're having some serious problems!

Here is a boot animation I made for mammon's bonsai4all rom (since this is my daily driver) pretty much just made from some of the awesome wallpapers that he has included in his rom and a sound I mashed together.

Bonsai Boot Preview

Bonsai Generic Boot Preview

Bonsai Boot Sound Preview

Animation for a454nova's SUPERNOVA rom. The preview gif runs kinda poorly in browser (at least in mine)and may take up to 20 seconds to cycle, but the animation on the phone is like 10-12 seconds. Though I would like to, I haven't come up with a sound for this one. This 6 second limit really sucks!1

SuperNova Boot Preview

SuperNova Generic Preview

The shutdown is pretty generic, just wanted something a little more simple. And something with a slightly longer sound since powering down takes so long anyways and that is something of which we can actually extend the length, unlike the Power On sound.

Shutdown Preview

Shutdown Sound Preview

The .zips below are flashable through CWM. Generics are just "Android/Froyo" splash screens and the others are "ROM Name/ROM author" for those specific roms.

Instructions:

-Copy .zip to your SD card

-Flash through CWM like you would anything else :)

I have tested these on mammon's bonsai4all and that is all I have tried, though I assume (perhaps wrongly) that it should work on any kernel that supports custom animations as long as the boot animation runs from /system/media.

As for the usual disclaimer I am not responsible for anybody jacking up their phones by flashing these files. So flash these at your own risk.

That being said I hope you enjoy them!

Would love to know how your doing this as well.
[Epic 4G Themes] ghostrid3r:
Awesome job on adding to the feel and look for Mammon's bonsai4all rom.
[Epic 4G Themes] optmsprim2:
Thanks! The vector text was all made in adobe illustrator and compositing and fx were done in after effects. I am interested in learning flash though to see if it is quicker to produce a similar product but in a more streamlined fashion.

leatherneck, are you creating your animations at 30 fps? And what resolution are you running at? I feel like flash might be able to handle vector animation better than what I am using and wonder how it is handled in flash (i.e. can you render at any resolution you like or is it just Full, half, third or quarter of maximum)?
[Epic 4G Themes] leatherneck6017:
I have found the most success at 24 fps but setting desc.text to run at 96 fps. Using flash I am able to render at full 480 by 800. Flash can also output to png (1 png for each frame). If you want we could work together on creating a flash version.

Ive been knocking around these forums for da while....I was a big WM user. I jumped into Android on the Streak, and I just have a couple of questions, almost mundane, but ive searched everywhere and cant find a straight answer on two matters....

1. With 2.1/2.2 does the home screen do native portrait to landscape rotation natively?

2. The keyboard on my stock At&t Streak (1.6) doesnt seem to do multitouch very well, is that something that 2.1/2.2 solves?

QDL repair tool

Search here for the QDL repair tool, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS to the letter getting the drivers loaded, one click, (for me 174 seconds), wait for the dell logo to go away (could take a couple minutes, up to 5) and VOILA! 2.2 (309) installed.

Good idea to do a fastboot then select reflash, then download the 318 update file, allow it to update (keeps all of your settings), and you're done.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
I am a big fan of the "Nexus" brand myself, it feels like Google's version of the iPhone, in that there is no carrier bloatware, or brand name UI's, just the "pure" Android OS.

I have owned the Nexus-One, and now the Nexus-S, and liked both these phones a lot. Before that I had an iPhone3G, it was cool when it first came out, but now I just feel the iOS is dated, and not up to date with Android or WinMo7.

Just curious as to what the next "nexus" phone will be, and when it's due out ? I heard rumors it will be an HTC made phone, called the Nexus-Two, running the next generation Snapdragon processor, that is dual core 1.2ghz. Not sure if it will be a 2.4 Honeycomb phone, or the 3.0 Ice cream ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tominater12:
It will probably be a tablet with honeycomb on it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
we just got the second incarnation can we not talk about this now :P

All i know is that people are going to ***** cuz it doesnt have NFC *rolls eyes*
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
That brings up another question too, what are approx release dates for Honeycomb and Ice cream ?

I think Honeycomb is the 2.4 # ? And is that the one where the developers have been bragging will bring the MAJOR revisions to the UI, and really be a big leap for Android, not just the little changes from like 2.2 Froyo to 2.3 Gingerbread, but a huge leap forward ? Plus be the first release that is made for dual core ?

Then not sure what Ice Cream 3.0 is, if Honeycomb brings the major UI changes.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slateac:
My assumption is that HTC will regain access to AMOLED and Google will return to them. And the Tegra platform is looking to be the most mainstream next year, they even announced Tegra 3

Nexus 2, Nexus 3, Nexus X, Nexus G, whatever

It's most likely that Honeycomb is 3.0 as it will be a massive jump for tablets and phones. the 2.4 rumor was just a random tipster from androidandme.com which has no credibility at all.

But we don't know until Google officially announces it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
Thanks for the info :) Yeah I heard "Honeycomb" comes out on the next gen tablets due out in Feb, and then will be brought to the phones in like May or so, to be released before iPhone 5.

The spy shots of that 10" Motorola tablet looks pretty sweet.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderdroid:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
I think I read something recently where Google said the Nexus brand phones will not just be the annual Christmas release only. But that there will be a "nexus" device launched with every major OS update. And that the next Nexus device will be a Honeycomb tablet. And the next Nexus phone will be running Android 3.0 "ice cream"

Guess time will tell...for now I am very happy with my Nexus-S :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderdroid:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] booyakasha:
That's my guess as well. I see Google giving everyone a shot at the Nexus brand, in the spirit of openness. Not sure how the names will go, but it won't be held to Samsung/HTC, it'll go to whoever has the best to offer and can provide the best bang-for-buck.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kubernetes:
Yeah I'm guessing Moto. Something doesn't feel right about them going back to HTC-- I doubt Google will want any speculation that there is a favored hardware developer. Google is juggling a ton of Android handset makers and will likely do everything to make sure they don't shift to WP7.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyed:
Seriously, I saw a couple of reviews of the Nexus S which had actually 'NFC isn't very useful yet' as a con! That's just stupid.

On topic: I really hope Sony Ericsson. I would never buy a 'normal' Android phone from SE, because of the drastically changed interface and the Xperia X10 with 2.1 not getting updates anymore, ever. But their phones are soooo sexy. Look at the upcoming Arc! Wow! If they co-operate with Google, the only thing SE will be the master of is the outside of the phone. Google determines the interface, the updates, if dual-core is needed, etc. etc.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thepro8:
Absolutely not true.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Menace II Society:
This.

I have that same feeling. I think Google will go with whoever is leading in smartphones. When the Nexus One came out it was HTC's time. And when they started getting into development for the Nexus S it was Samsung's time. I think the next company will be LG or maybe Motorola if they can make more devices like the Atrix 4G.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyed:
I really hope the next Nexus will be a tablet. Why? Because I don't want a tablet. If they release a tablet next year, it will probably take another year for a new Nexus phone to come out. That way I can enjoy my Nexus S which I'm going to buy longer, and then I don't have to be jealous at Nexus 3 owners for at least 2 years.

I don't want to buy a new phone every year, but that doesn't mean I can't be jealous. After two years, I might consider a new phone, and it will obviously be a Nexus. I just hope they release a tablet version. It could be, because of Honeycomb and all?

Hello, everyone. I'm going to just cut to the chase and blatantly say that I am a Winmo Junkie. I have given Android a chance and can honestly say that I love it.... but not as much as Winmo. (No flames necessary) One thing however bothers me very much so; the internet speeds are on average at 15,000 kb/s on Android and are on average 700 kb/s on Windows Mobile. This is AFTER clearing cache on both. I have tried different browsers on Winmo. I also have tried different radios and Winmo roms. The most peculier part about it was that when I was throttled for over-usage on data, Android was not effected. In fact, this was when I achieved my highest speed of 56,000 kb/s. I refuse to believe that this is because Android is simply better due to that experience. So here is my question: How can I make my Winmo internet speeds faster. Thank you all.

P.S. I searched the forums already and Google to no avail.

P.P.S. I am running Darkstone's Nexus One Froyo rom.

P.P.P.S. I already used BSB Tweaks to speed up Internet speeds. It seemed to do nothing.

Found a solution! Still looking for another, though.

That setting itself is said to increase speeds over the air also.

I also would like to say that I have found a solution, however it is not the best one. I installed Fennec 1.1 (Alpha 4) and have gotten my desired HSPA+ speeds when web browsing. Fennec isn't as bad as its deemed, though, just like Winmo :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] islamicwarrior27:
Surprise, surprise!

Fennec seems to have affected internet speeds throughout. (Some places less dramatically than others but increased none-the-less)

I just hit 16,000 KB/s on Winmo! This is dramatic for me.
