[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivandelrosario:
so all your data like mp3's and pictures on the 16GB internal memory will also be wiped?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
No. it wipes the /data partition where your apps are stored. It does not touch the /sdcard partition (the internal memory) at all.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivandelrosario:
That's very nice to know! I thought I have to keep backing up my data every time i flash a wipe rom.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XtriFe:

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper89:
Very true not only the X1 but pretty much all of the WM devices, I've heard the HD2 running it but that is probably the only WM that can do it. @ usylsse84 but most importantly why waste your X1 with a locked down OS that's missing alot basic smartphone features you are defiantly not gaining anything by putting WP7 in your X1? And that 12 year old made looking square interface is retarded, I would be sick of looking at that interface after a week of using it and not having the option to change it lol GTFO. If you want WP7 then buy a WP7 phone it's that simple.

i am looking for a game that looks impressive on my old kaiser.

fps or racing or something with good graphics that will impress in the bar.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zebra363:
Raging Thunder 2, or ScummVM + Monkey Island 3..

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] gazzacbr:
thanks but....

my daughters just laughed when i mentioned monkey island as we played the original 20 years ago :-) you just cant put a good game down eh?

Raging Thunder 2 looks good so will give that a try also.

(Outrun was not available last I checked)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zebra363:
You could also try Pool Break Pro, nice and beautiful game!

Monkey Island 3 is not 20 years old ! Graphisms are very beautiful, but I did not try it under Android..

But you have to compress it, if you want to gain some place, and speed it up!

Also, Frozen Bubble is a nice game, but not really impressive, just beautiful..

There's Tux something (was Tux Racer on Linux, but I dont remember its name under Android), which would be impressive too!

Good luck!

Anyway just flash Darky's rom using CWM. Then Flash the modem file using ODIN. Put the .TAR file in the PHONE section in ODIN. Leave everything else blank. The file is zipped so you will need to unzip it first.

Ok, I am new to this so excuse me for any stupid mistakes, please.

So, last night I rooted my optimus one (p500) using z4root. Everything went fine, I got myself a rooted phone and I started messing around. I had no problems till I installed Rom Manager today. It asked me to install ClockWork Mod (something like this), I couldn't find my phone but I selected "Dell Streak" anyway! (I know, it's stupid!)

So, my phone restarts, LG logo comes up and goes and now I'm stuck on a screen that says:

Fastboot mode started

udc_start()

That's it, nothing else, am not able to do anything. What to do now? I've been searching the net for ages now but no help. Please, I need some help. I can't even get a new phone because I'm 15 and my parents won't buy me one! :( Please, help!!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sinner99:
sorry to resurrect an old thread...anyone else experiences this fastboot mode. easy fix. open androidsdk manager and a cmd prompt with admin escalation, then change the prompt to the sdk installed platform-tools directory and run ../tools/fastboot.exe reboot or reboot-bootloader. one of those commands rebooted my phone properly and up to its flaked out rom. which i proceeded to remove and today updated to the latest official stock 2.3.3 for my optimus one. :)

Guys I'm been using MDJ and MCCM Gingerbread build ,both of them had the camera running , but why so hard to get the Camcorder to function :confused: is it due to the kernel,driver or something else :confused: ... Can somebody here that can share your experience with me :) i want to tweak the build my self if i know where to started :) thanks .
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mdskrzypczyk:
Well the current Gingerbread builds are based off of the SDK tools that were released to developers. And normal builds for HD2 are either based off of Desire HD, Desire, or Nexus One (There are others but these are the main ones.). So since an actual Nexus One Gingerbread rom has not been ripped yet and ported, you don't have the camcorder function working.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] yesucan:
Thanks for the feedback :) so that's mean no way around can make the camcorder working until the actual Gingerbread rom has posted.

The reason some of the text is unreadabele is that I had it all smooth and shiny, but then I realised that my resolution is HUGE, and that XDA auto-scales. so I shrunk it down by 66.6%, and I thought that would be good. Unfortunatly, I didnt check it again till now, and WOW is that pixely!

Obviously, its still a bit big for some screen resolutions.

Fridgecow is my friends and I's way of accessing Games from school. Created by us. Sort of become my second life.

I was going to make the image a PHP page: that way it could aut scale, and I could use some IP trickery to use only one link to a PHP page.

Got the phone recently and flashed Darkys v7.0 and very impressed by the rom.

Basically my incoming calls dont show up,when an incoming call happens,i get a vibrate and some sort of notification flashes on the screen for an instant then disappears,then my network signal drops out.

I've tried another sim and different service provider,same problem which indicates some issue with phone,have triple checked all my settings in call settings,answering is enabled.

I can make calls,sent and recieve sms messages and connect to net/mail via my 3g,so cant figure out whats going on.Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

try to flash speedmod recovery on your phone, do the most recent stable version, once you get into recovery you can see if it truly is bricked, if you get the common SD error then it is bricked but if it's complaining about some data missing your still in luck.

[Desire HD General] Tangerines:
Hi guys,

I just recently bought a HTC Desire HD and have been enjoying it very much.... I have rooted and S-off, but have yet to install recovery clockwork ....

That aside, yesterday I started moving some stock app files to a folder on the sd card (so I can remove it from my phone, plus back it up just in case) with root explorer (r/w mounted), I didn't move the HtcLocationService.apk. All went ok...

But just this morning I noticed my locations icon on my phone's interface has turned into the green android image...meaning the program is gone! It cannot be found in my programs at all.

I have tried to do the "reinstall locations" in the settings, but it says "unable to find an activity to handle this action", and I've tried to go straight to the HtcLocationService.apk to install it (not even sure if it is the right application) and it says "application not installed".

I am really stumped, and would like Locations back on my DHD!!

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks in advance
[Desire HD General] quarintus:
What stock apps did you uninstall? Some apps are bound to eachother. Locations is probably bound to navigation or footprints or maybe another app. So if you uninstalled that, that could be the cause.

If it's really gone, then probably the only way to reinstall it is installing the stock ROM again (or a custom one). You probably can't install it again because locations needs some other stock app (if my hypothesis are right).
[Desire HD General] Tangerines:
I took out stuff like friendstream, Plurk, Twitter, FieldTest, Flickr, HTC_IME, EasyCard, Laputa, KKBOX, plus phone provider apps (since I'm with TaiwanMobile, myfone) so TWM_City/Market/Movie/Music etc....

I've since moved the files back into system>apps, but it hasn't changed anything....is there any possibility I could get Locations back???
[Desire HD General] quarintus:
I can't think of an idea to reinstall Locations that easy. You can just install the official ROM again. You don't even have to be rooted then.

Have a look at this thread. If you deleted .apk files of the 2 lowest lists, then you could try to reinstall them first. Otherwise I don't know. maybe someone else.

I would have reinstalled the official ROM again. Just to make sure everything works correctly again. (and then start over removing apps :') ).

But maybe someone else knows a better solution :)
[Desire HD General] Tangerines:
Thanks for you quick reply!

Can you point me to a thread that would explain the process of installing an official rom (where i would download the rom, etc)? Plus is there a way I can back up all my games, apps and settings, so I don't have to reinstall every app and game again?

would a Factory reset help? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm hoping I get this resolved :)
[Desire HD General] quarintus:
First of all: I found this thead for installing system .apk's. Maybe that can help. But it seems pretty comlicated ;).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695701

A factory reset should restore everything, (ofcourse I was tthinking to complicated :') ).

All apps you installed from the market will be reinstalled if you login with you google account again. It can take a while. It also remembers wich apps you bought. It won't however save any data (like saves for games).

For other apps (and all apps if you want to backup the data), you could download titanium backup (also available in the market). Keep in mind though that for restoring any backups made with this app, you need root acces again.

The facotry reset will remove your personal data. Only your sdcard and simcard will keep their info.

I hope all is clear what I told :P. So no ROM download needed. :')

Let us know if it has worked ;)
[Desire HD General] Tangerines:

[G Tablet General] XANAVirus:
I did the Market fix and was able to get access to a somewhat working Market.

I signed on with my main account where my Nexus One's apps are also tied to but when I went to 'My Apps' in the new Market screen, there were only two listed... No Signal Alert Pro and Battery Indicator Pro.

They're both paid apps, and I can't find any of the others through searching for them either.

LauncherPro is missing, as is the other 112 apps that I should be able to find. Angry Birds is missing too, even though I never downloaded it in the first place.

Is there any way to get around this?

EDIT:

I'm also unable to download AppBrain through the browser or through my computer. I might be able to get some more of the ones I want back if I could.

[G Tablet General] XANAVirus:
It worked!

Well, sort of. I got all my paid apps back, that's really good! But, all the rest of them, my free downloads, are gone still (I was looking in 'My Apps').

I just searched for LauncherPro and that's there.

So, there are some free apps in the Market (though, I downloaded this one to my Nexus One, and since they're on the same account, shouldn't it show up there too)?

YouTube also doesn't show up in 'My Apps' either, and it is obviously on both my phone and my GTablet.
[G Tablet General] littleoldme:
You have to remember your Nexus One is Market approved the G Tablet is not Market approved as of yet.
[G Tablet General] XANAVirus:
Yeah, and that's a bummer... :(

Anyway, during the last few hours, I was able to get Appbrain onto my GTablet using the Market (searching for it actually made it come up).

Then, using their website, I added all the non-GPS-or-Phone-type apps to my new 'GTablet' list and they downloaded and successfully installed (this was after doing a single reboot)-- they all also showed on the Market too.

I got LauncherPro back (too bad, I might have to pay again to get the Pro features back) and most of the other cool apps I had before (minus the phone-related-or-GPS-location apps).

Except for:

TV.com (as someone else mentioned; too bad I loved watching this on my Nexus One)

TubeMate (the regular site works well enough through Skyfire :) )

Nexus Revamped Live Wallpaper (I'll find something cooler, like in that thread around here)

and that's it. Everything mostly works (had to remove a few that just gave black screens, only 3 of them) and you can see my app list right here:
