you can do this yourself. just upgrade to jpa and then untar

tar -xvf firmware.tar

to get the parts (but recommend you use jpy now which is newer than jpx) and then apply only the parts you want.. everything but the modem using himdal.. i did the same for my i9000t .. search for thread on it.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Acton_Minuteman:
My wife's Droid Eris is stock 2.1.

She has specific contact shortcuts for calls and texts; ie Call Mere, Text Mere

I finally created contact shortcuts. When I touch my shortcut, I get another window with different icons for call, contact, gmail, etc.

Is there a way to create specific shortcuts to call someone without opening the second window?

Thanks
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrObvious:
Anycut should do it.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Acton_Minuteman:
Let me state my observation a different way.

My wife's Droid Eris with stock 2.1 has single click call or text function.

My KaosFroyo v35-1 has requires two clicks, 1st click brings up an expanded window with other options, requiring me to click on the small phone icon to place a call.

How can I create a shortcut to call a telephone number?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SicNside:
bring up the option to add to home screen click shortcuts and scroll down and you have options for direct dial and direct message. And from there its a single click icon to call the selected contact you have choosen for that shortcut
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Acton_Minuteman:
Ok, your reply has added one more thing on my droid do list.

Add each Widget to a screen if only to see what exactly it does.

I selected the Contact Widget not the Direct Dial Widget.

Thanks.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Prototypeuk:
This is a UK question. As iplayer might not work in other countries.

www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer

Has anyone got the bbc iplayer to play the video? All I get is a green box, the audio plays ok.

I have tried a hard reset but its still the same. I'm using Flash 10.1 from the Android market.

Help please people..... ?!?!?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] cosimoss:
Same here on 2.3.1 using stock browser. I only get sound and the green screen. Flash re-installed and a reset still no luck.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Prototypeuk:
When did you update to 2.3.1?

I'm trying to work it out if the people that have it working installed Flash 10.1 when they were still running 2.3.0
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kunsoni:
I also have same issue with my Nexus S. My nexus one is working fine.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Prototypeuk:
This is most strange. Can we have a poll on who has iPlayer working on their Nexus S and what updates you have done Eg. 2.3.0 installed flash then updated to 2.3.1

My phone was updated to 2.3.1 the moment I first turned it on
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sporran:
me too! green screen,sound ok running 2.3.1 Flash installed.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] mingkee:
Try skyfire or change user agent.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] cosimoss:
Tried Dolphin Browser and get the same.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kunsoni:
I now tried skyfire and it worked fine so I dont know how to make it work on default browser.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] englefield:
Confirmed...230 was fine 231 gives green box.

Working fine on 2.3 after installing flash 10.1 from the market.

Would be far more useful if we could download the profs though for me as with the Nokia offering.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Prototypeuk:
Has your phone offered you the 2.3.1 update yet?

If so let me know if it works after you have done it
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] xspyda:
Yep I'm offered the upgrade practically every time I unlock the phone but I don't want to install it yet.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] :
Getting a green box, even in skyfire here. Anyone found a solution yet?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Prototypeuk:
I take it you have done the 2.3.1 update? I am trying to work out if it's the update which the Flash Player doesn't like.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] moisiom:
Same issue as well. Nothing but a green screen on iplayer and even a few YouTube videos.

Android 2.3.1 and Flash player 10.1 installed from market.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Prototypeuk:
Was that using the Youtube app pre installed or via the web browers?

There is a fix for the iplayer Thanks to ryude, sporran and others for this:

Go to google.com and in the URL bar, type; about:debug then hit go.

Not much happens but press menu button/more scroll to bottom, hit settings and scroll to bottom, you should have some extra settings, tick the box at Normal Rendering and click on UAString ,choose Desktop. Exit and that's it. BBC Iplayer will now play without a green screen.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] edo_xda:
thanks it plays but with unacceptable quality - too many pauses (resolution too high?) and not fitting the screen well.

while with the android UAString, the screen loooked nicely formatted

I guess we'll need to wait for a fix
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] edo_xda:
The fix has arrived - today's flash player update solves the issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
Just for the fun of it does anyone out there with the confidence and ability to flash JPX want to try and see if the OTA update works and offers the JPY released today?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] got-petrol:
I was on jpx no ota so used Odin to flash jpy
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
not sure what you mean i am on jpy and tried to signup an account for ota.. but registration fails.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
My account I signed up to on the PC and it works fine checks and says no update available as I had already updated to JPY with Kies. @got-petrol was JPY officially available then without hack as it is now?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
please provide link to sign up on pc.. .i only tried on the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
This is where I originally registered but as you will see it has now changed

http://www.samsungmobile.co.uk

to

http://www.samsung.com /yourcountrycode

Just noticed something odd. The Login/register button does not show at the bottom of the IE window but does show on Firefox. Not sure why.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
thanks you are right.. already had samsung account here in the. us. had to figure out pwd.. when i put acct in in the phone.. it did connect.. checked for update (i am on jpy) and said no update avail.

guess they havent implement the registration portion of the phone app yet.. but it is cool that the check worked.. i am with you now.. wonder if the upgrade would really be found and work?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] got-petrol:
@ Tehpriest it says on here that jpy has been released through kies with no hacks to xeu and cpw but i can use kies because of this when i installed it on my new pc windows 7 64 bit when i start kies i get a 20 boxers fsusbservice64 coming up with service initiali failed and i have to keep clicking yes to truten,inc it worked ok on my windows 7 32 bit pc what a pile of crap
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
Sorry. Not sure you understood the question. It was a test to see if the OTA is working. To do this someone would need JPX on thier phone as this is the first with the OTA option and as JPY is now officially released and if they have the XEU product code they should, if it has gone live, get an update notification. Then all with Kies problems will be able to forget Kies from JPX on :-D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ntfreak:
I had JPX on GT-I9000HKDXEU and OTA just reported no update - had to use kies to update to JPY.

Cheers

Spen
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tackygr:
I m on JPX and KOR code at the moment,checked the OTA ast night,i did manage to comunicate with the server,but no update was found...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
I see a gap in my logic here. If it behaves like Kies then the phone would not only need to be XEU but would also need to have an officially released firmware (JPO) prior to the newest (JPY) for it to offer the update. So we will have to wait for JPQ now then I suppose. :cool:
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] xilpaxim:
Has anyone tried this out yet? I went to get it this morning, but the download of extra files is fairly huge (600+ megs) and so didn't have time to download everything over wifi.

The only bad thing about that is 600 megs usually means more than 15 minutes of waiting, and just reading the reviews there are a lot of unhappy (and not to bright) folks that downloaded it and can't get refunds after finding out it doesn't work on their lower end phones.

But the Streak is specifically mentioned on the list of compatible phones. I just hope it works well, so we have something that once again, shows off the Dell Streak.

I wonder if there will be big differences between gameplay for official 2.2 folks and Steve mods?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] fards:
I've played it on 3 different builds..

the 02 build is considerably smoother than the 315 dell build or 151..

but the o2 build seems to handle 3d stuff better than the others for some reason generally
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] yiuwing_hk:
I tried with official 315 with performance fix, the full video quality will be laggy if in the actual gameplay. Then I tried to turned down between 60-80% of video quality, the gameplay is acceptable, however the framerate is ofcourse not as good as normal 30frame/sec.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] Lord P:
Bought this game the other day. Had my reservations due to the new 15 minute rule, but in the end it's only a couple of quid!

I'm running Steve's 1.5.1 with my Streak mildly O/C'ed to 1.113gHz and the game runs reasonably well. It's definitely not smooth, but it's far from unplayable. To be fair, the description does imply that it's optimised for Tegra 2 devices (something also eluded to in the intro videos), but it runs well enough for me, especially as it's on a device that's about 6 months old.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] Sino7:
one word can express all my feeling: LAG
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] jvc.silence:
on my streak stock 2.2 runs well...no lag no problems!overclocking is just killing your phone(doesn't make it faster:)))
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] WeedMan4lbg:
If DD runs smooth on the official build and lags on the official build+performance fix applied (my case), is there some kind of patch or something for the tweaked official build?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] str8killinya:
i have official 2.2 it works great for me i just use fast reboot pro before i start playing and it runs lag free except online but i also am on cincinnati bell with Fuse wifi so go figure lol. but ran great on road runner turbo 30mbs at girls house.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] silverstorm:
Woohoo!

Looks like the official 2.2.1 is on Kies now. I tried earlier today with Kies v100 but got

nothing, upgraded Kies to v102 and got told I've got a firmware upgrade available!

Downloading now.

I'm on CPW product code in the UK. I haven't done anything to my registry settings or installed the Kies Patcher.

Get Kies v102 from here I don't think older versions will show you anything

Ok, didn't know about that code. Just tried it and looks like its EXACTLY the same!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
Good news so no need to re-install then :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] amwebby:
Looks like it is the same, which is slightly disappointing as I would have hoped they'd addressed the wifi issue that's causing excess battery drain.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cydiamante:
Does the product code stay the same of does it change to KOR as it did with the hack?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cicer0:
Mine stayed XEU, used registry hack. Even did a factory reset after upgrade (because product code did change to KOR when i upgraded to JPO and did a factory reset) and it stayed XEU.

I also do not have any draining problem (not because of wifi anyways), the battery is not so good as it was in JPO, but i'm getting 2-2,5 days of normal use and hoping that after some charging cycles it will be better.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alexhull24:
XEU phone here, even checked the /efs folder and all references are XEU.

Grabbed Kies v102, installed and checked no spoof in the registry by reading it with registry patcher.

Plug in phone, launch Kies, finds the phone, firmware update - JPX is the latest apparently. What are people coming from? Perhaps it only works on JPO (last official release, right?).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Philio25:
This ROM has serious battery problems, 6 hours on standby with wifi off today and it had died!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alexhull24:
That's terrible battery usage. Did you factory reset, clean cache and format internal sd? Running any mods etc? Sounds like there's a problem, and I don't think it's the ROM as most peoples experiences are much better than that. SGS Tools on the market may shed some more light on what is using up the battery for you.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Philio25:
Battery usage (from about phone):

Display: 85%

Cell standby: 7%

Wi-fi: 5% (wtf it's disabled?)

Phone idle: 3%

Have never factory set my phone, tbh the whole point of Android updates is you shouldn't need to. Consider typical user (e.g. non techie) updates via Kies and gets this issue, what then?

I'll backup with Titanium and give a factory reset a try...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sammy_user:
what's difference between factory reset and hard reset? which is better after a firmware upgrade?:)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Philio25:

Is there a way for you to intercept a sms text message by knowing that person phone number
[Android Apps and Games] ii Candor ii:
I've seen phantom SMS messages and voicemail notifications come through on a phone without being hooked up with service.

The phone must be made for that specific carrier and programmed with that user's CTN and MSID and PRL updated on that carrier.

I've only seen this on CDMA service.

Otherwise I'm pretty sure there's not a way to receive other people's SMS. Although there could be some software program out there that does it. But it would have to be installed on that specific phone to work.

[G Tablet General] sgilbert:
First let me say thanks to all of you, I purchased my wife what was out of the box a useless machine. Then before I had an sd card out of desperation I used the tnt lite and flashed off onboard storage. all went fine.

Today I see there has been a few updates so I installed a microsd (16gb ) and attempted to do it correctly using the CW mod install guide. I mounted the card and used Es FE to extract the cwmod to root /sdcard folder then I powered down and did the volume +/power. I seen the prompts it looked like it went through. then i booted back into os and used esfe to delete them out of root booted down and it shows the prompts then a yellow exclamation and just goes back into OS no matter what I have tried. I tried several times.

I dont want to mod the unit anymore without the recommended recovery methods could someone guide me a bit why I cant get cwmod to load?

thanks
[G Tablet General] sgilbert:
bump for attention
[G Tablet General] thebadfrog:
if you are using the internal sdcard.....SDCARD:

/sdcard/update.zip

/sdcard/recovery/command

"command" must have this line in it

--update_package=SDCARD:/update.zip

OR external sdcard.......SDCARD2

/sdcard2/update.zip

/sdcard2/recovery/command

"command" must have this line in it

--update_package=SDCARD2:/update.zip

CHECK THE COMMAND FILE. If you are booting with Power/Vol+ and its not going to the clockwork menu then clockwork is not installed. Installing any Viewsonic updates will erase cwm recovery
[G Tablet General] bobolinko:
This'll make it do the recovery

I had the same scenario and it was due to the editor I was uing to make the recover/command file. Just delete what is in the recover/command folder, and unzip the file in the following link, and copy the file in the command folder to the SD. It WILL work with the next effort of install with the vol+ and power button function (sys recovery?) I got it to work, thanks to Robeet's Explanation....

The File is what I extracted from the original plain vanilla file that Robeet had referenced to on this forum. I only took the recovery/command part of the package. :)
