[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aps786:
I faced similar issue (after applying some new theme , ADW launcher crashed and no way to reset to default). I already solved the issue now and later come to this post so thought to help others.

Basically when ADW Launcher crashed, there is nothing bad yet to your phone and those are silly who do factory reset or flash rom. Actually you have everything and you just need to remove the newly installed theme so that original theme again come in to picture. Well, the point is how to do it when you can't acces anything.

The solution mentioned above works when you have search key using which you can go to settings. What if its not there? Note that if you have just applied there and ADW Launcher start crashing then you can again open settings by long press on some configured button (e.g. Home key) and select settings from recently launched apps. Well, in my case I actually restarted phone thinking it might change the situation but it made it worst as I can't access anything. Neither call nor mail, absolutely nothing.

Here is one hope. I saw that status bar still active and when I gave miss call to my mobile, I got it in status bar and then I could access my contacts. So I took benefit of that. I send mail to myself from my laptop with google play link to newly installed theme. When I got notification in status bar for new mail, i click on it to open my mail client, From there I click on google play link and my google play app open with that app with uninstall button. I simply clicked it and voilla !! It uninstalled new theme and I got default theme back. ADW Lancher now working perfactly.

I hope this might help others. Now I have configured some keys on my mobile to work as sortcut to settings so that in case something like this happen I can anytime access settings.

Thank you, this "email a link to the theme" tip helped me to solve the continuously crashing launcher problem.

Is it doable to flash a different carrier ROM on my VZW tab?

The thing is, I badly need the bluetooth keyboard to work on verizon tab. That way I can really use the tab to meet my need. I have the bluetooth keyboard ready but verizon has intentionally crippled the bluetooth keyboard function. That is repeatedly discussed in many forums.

So could I flash it to T-mobile stock ROM or other carier ROM that would let me use the BT keyboard?

I dont need the data connection, I use the tab without getting data package from verizon. So I dont care if it is verizon or any other carrier. ( I would have got a wifi tab but apparently its not out yet)

Any reason why it might or might not work? I know this thing differs from other tabs as it's CDMA versus GSM, but since I'm not using that function, should have no difference right?

Please let me know what you think. And please forgive me if this is not the right place to post.

Thanks all.
[Galaxy Tab General] clovis_ll:
it will probably brick your tab. cdma roms are not meant for gsm devices and vice versa.

I've been using DL09 since it's initial release thanks to Adynalyne on IRC. One of the first things to note is it will break most themes out there. If the theme you are using adds Power Options to the reboot menu, then your phone will not boot if you flash that theme onto DL09. I have simply reapplied that mod to the DL09 framework to fix this issue.

Flash this AFTER you flash a DJ05 theme that uses Power Options, it will fix the theme and make it work with DL09.

Theme Fix: http://www.mediafire.com/?2d3bs639daggjz7 ONLY FOR DL09 USERS

Other mods such as Accurate Battery do not break your phones boot, and any mods to Services.jar (such as clock removal) also will not break your phones boot.

Now for my other observations with DL09, I see no major improvement from DJ05. Other than it breaking DJ05 themes, there is only ONE improvement I noticed. If you are listening to music with headphones and the Samsung Music Player, when you unplug your headphones the music player will stop, a much appreciated addition. Other than that, functions just like DJ05.

Enjoy DL09, and with the fix, enjoy your favorite theme with it ^^.

EDIT: For those having issues with Mediafire I have re-uploaded it as an attachment.

Perhaps a stupid question, but will this work with the Super Dark rom? Link below. I just want to make sure I don't screw up my phone now that I've went through all the hassle of adding DL09 and reinstalling all my applications.

Im using the superdark theme and it works fine......as long as you apply the dl09 theme fix.
[Fascinate Android Development] CrushD:
Keep in mind, Super Dark ROM is exactly what it says it is, a ROM, and a DJ05 ROM at that. If you went through the hassle of going to DL09, I would not suggest flashing the Super Dark ROM as that'll put you back to DJ05 system. I would suspect that flashing the DL09 Theme Fix on top of a DJ05 system is a very bad idea. You can find separately the Super Dark theme, which would probably be a better idea :).

For some reason, I can't get the download to work. When I click on where is says "Click here to download" on the Mediafire page it takes me to a page that says "error - forbidden you must log in to view this page" and then like 2 or 3 other pages pop up with really weird stuff on them. What am I doing wrong?
[Fascinate Android Development] kenesis:
Dear CrushD,

The music has stopped playing when the headphones are unplugged since the dj05 update. I've been enjoying this feature for a while in the car.
[Fascinate Android Development] dspanos:
I can't download this either. Mediafire says it's preparing the download and it never pops up. Any help or mirrors would be greatly appreciated!
[Fascinate Android Development] CrushD:
Weird, maybe it depends on the ROM, because it didn't for me, and my friend is still on DJ05 and it doesn't for him either. I was talking about the Samsung Music Player, I've heard other music players were already doing it.

Edit: Actually I am back to DJ05 right now, feel there's still some issues to be ironed out with DL09, and yes pulling headphones does NOT stop the Samsung Music Player in DJ05, it is new to DL09.
[Fascinate Android Development] dspanos:
Thanks for adding the file Crush! I really appreciate it!
[Fascinate Android Development] joebob2000:
I am using the DJ05 music player in the JT super clean .9 rom and it indeed does stop the music on headphone removal. This was a feature called out in the "release notes" of DJ05 too: "12) If you unplug a wired headset or turning off a Bluetooth headset while playing music the music will now pause"
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
Music def. does pause in DJ05.
[Fascinate Android Development] CrushD:
Ahh I don't remember that well, but I'm guessing then that I flashed JT's clean DJ05 then I put the DI01 Samsung Player in my system and using it the whole time as is, because my DJ05 didn't do it -.-.
[Nook Color General] chrismoo:
Hi folks

So I am running a rooted Nook Color (thank you Autonooter!)

I have installed Overdrive both via the Android Market and also via the local library site in case there was a weird version issue. When I click to download an epub book from my library the browser instead of invoking Overdrive to download the book displays the URN information for the book download. There seems to be no way to get books downloaded. I tried making the default browser the Nook one vs using Dolphin HD but the same occurs.

I installed the same config on my Droid X and Overdrive kicked in and downloaded the book.

Anyone else tried checking out books via their library and had any success. I wonder if this is an issue due to rooting but wanted to get some feedback before resorting to going all the way back to stock (I just got this thing configured how I wanted it too!)

Thanks for any insight!

Chris
[Nook Color General] k8108:
I am a heavy overdrive user for both epub books and audio books.

I can download epub books to my android phone just fine, but i have to download the books to my nook via Adobe digital editions on my laptop.

They show up under My Files in the NC library.

Make sure to register your adobe de onlineon your PC and on your NC.

Please post if you need further help.
[Nook Color General] docfreed:
It Works...

The text stuff that you see is the text of the associated ascm file in Overdrive. Do the following:

I am using the following method on a rooted NC and using either Aldiko or Overdrive Media Console with no probs whatsoever. I use these because I like to read my epubs in landscape mode and for some totally inexplicable reason the BN reader can't do this!

You must have Astro File Manager installed (free in the Market). Astro allows you to add new file extensions by the following preferences:

Astro settings>Data>Edit File Extensions>New

Extension Name: epub (no period)

MIME Type: application

Subtype: epub

Then Save

Now when you double-click on the ebook file it will ask for whatever reading program you want to use to read, i.e., the reading app that is on your Nook Color. If you have Desktop Visualizer installed (also free in the Market) you can even make a shortcut for your book on your [rooted] Home Screen, e.g., I am using Zeam launcher for my home screen.
[Nook Color General] chrismoo:
That sounded promising but it looks like I am just getting the URN/URL for the eBook and not the actual file downloading so the association does not seem to work. I currently have the default browser set rather than Dolphin but both behaved in the same manner.

Any other ideas? Am I missing something else.

Thanks for the response I'm really looking forward to getting this working!

EDIT: I also rebooted afterwards in case it needed a fresh boot for the new extension

Chris
[Nook Color General] chrismoo:
In the text/ address that I see when clicking download the book I saw application/epub+zip so I tried editing the epub extension via Astaro to try that vs just application/epub

Did not make a difference. Agh!

I wish I could cut and paste the screen/text to better show what I am getting.
[Nook Color General] docfreed:
In the browser (I use Dolphin) go to "More>Save Page or Save" and save the text - then click on it w/Astro. You want to save the actual text, not the URL
[Nook Color General] Jsorvik:
IYep, that worked for me. The only hang up left for me is the fact that books downloaded directly to the NC can't be read with the book's reading app. It does not recognize the drm like it does if they are sideloaded from a PC running adobe digital editions. Can that be corrected?
[Nook Color General] chrismoo:
Ok got the epub files working but via adding another extension type of ascm so that this kicked in the Overdrive application. I then tried to download a drm'd PDF file as the other book I wanted happened to be in this format- this one fails as Overdrive says it cannot open/read the PDF file format.

Man this seems to be a very haphazzard way to get at content - I am a PC tech so wonder what chance Joe Public stands!!

Thanks for the extensions pointer that's got me almost there!
[Nook Color General] texnote:
Can somebody please help me with setting up overdrive to associate with ACSM files? I installed Astro File Manager, but what do I choose for subtype and type?

I still can't het my library books to work with overdrive. I have overdrive installed. I have it authorized for Adobe Digital Editions. When I go download a book from my local library, I get a text file in my browser. I have saved it, and it has extension acsm, but I can't seem to be able to do anything with it.

Please help!

Thanks!
[Nook Color General] texnote:
I fixed my problem (partially). I deleted the acsm file assocation I had entered in Astro File Manager. Next time I clicked on a downloaded acsm file, Overdrive Media was launched and it worked.

The only issue now is: how come I cannot launch overdrive media from the browser (stock, or Dolphin HD), when I click on an acsm file download link?

As it stands, I have to download the acsm file (save it), and then open it in Astro.
[Droid 2 General] dinofan01:
As shocking as it may seem I want some blur on my phone! Im currently running gummy 2.5 but after using blur for a couple of months i miss the messaging, email, alarm, camera, sticky note widget and most importantly the icons! is there anyway for me to get any of this back? I tried installing the apks but to no avail. I think I could do with just the icons. Any advice? Thanks!
[Droid 2 General] phrozen87:
They won't install like normal apks to the best of my knowledge. You seem to have all of the APKs though from blur so try one of these methods, not 100% sure it will work but it likely should. (Edit: I'm not entirely sure what you are talking about with the icons, but this should help you get the APKs you want back)

REMEMBER TO BACKUP EVERYTHING BEFORE DOING EITHER OF THESE!

1) Download the empty InstallAPKs.zip from this post.

2) Open the archive in 7z or winrar

3) Navigate to system/app and put all the APKs you wan't to install into the zip (just drag them into the archive and let it add/update them. I'd have stuck them in the zip for you but I don't have any blur apks with me)

4) Reboot recovery and install the zip

or

1) You could manually go into the system folder and replace the apks using root explorer. Remember to set permissions to 644 for each file you replace if doing this.

On my first thread I had posted that tmobile was pushing my froyo.....lies!

They lied to me and I feel dumb for believing them....because after my promised 48 hours I would get the update, another operator apologized and said I was mislead

Screw it!

Some one help me out with which rom is the best to use and how to instal it....
[Vibrant General] icarianecho:
This post should be in Q&A but:

Start with a NOOB Guide that outlines the basic steps you need to take.

Then, once rooted, backed up, etc, head over to the Development section of this forum & choose a ROM.

Plenty of good choices out right now, including Axura, Gingerclone, Macnut, & Nero (I'm on Nero v3 & love it fwiw).

Follow instructions with precision.

All told, really very easy. Just be patient & don't freelance.

And if you have questions, just look around for the answers (trust me, they've all been answered).
[Vibrant General] Lethal_NFS:
PepperKake V2 and AXURA are my favs. Either of those mixed with ADW Launcher EX is one sweet experience.
[Vibrant General] slegrand:
That guide previously posted helped me get started after that I find it came to trial and error. I personally really like the team wiskey Nero v3 w/ voodoo. I have been using with ADW for about a week and love it.
[Vibrant General] oka1:
ROMS that all equally good

1. Axura from Master

2. Eugene's ginger clone r2

3. Pepperkake

4. Team Whiskey NeroV3

It really is personal preference but any of those will make you not care about T-Mobile or Samsung updates anymore.
[Vibrant General] TatuGrim:
What's the difference between them
[Vibrant General] Lethal_NFS:
Play with each one and decide for yourself. Some run faster than others and some have more eye candy. I found Axura to completely fix my GPS issue.
[Vibrant General] ScooterG:
And Nero v3 completely fixed my GPS issue. You really will need to try them all until you find the "right" one.
[Vibrant General] micanuck:
Team Whiskey and Nero V3 rocks!!:)
[Nook Color General] mad5427:
I am new to android and the NC is my first device with the OS. I currently have a Storm 1 on Verizon and I hate it. I love Verizon's network but hate hate hate my phone. I'm out of contract and ready for a new phone.

With all the Verizon iPhone rumors, I'm conflicted. Do I get an iPhone when it most likely arrives on Verizon or an android phone that is already there to go along with the NC?

I'm asking this here as you all seem to know so much about android and the NC. I want to tether whatever phone I get to the NC. I'm a mac user solely and like the compatibility there and would have gotten an iPhone immediately a year ago. Now, after experiencing android, I'm not so sure anymore that I even need or want the iPhone.

What are your thoughts on the two paths in regards to phone/NC compatibility and also to a Mac/phone/NC relationship? I really want to sync data between all three fairly seamlessly. Would having devices running different OS's make things too tough or are there enough cross platform apps and functionality to make it not matter?

I fully understand that the NC's capabilities are a long ways from being fully tapped. This might also be moot as both probably can serve my purposes. Figured I would pick your brains and experiences.

I have a Mac, iPhone 4 and NC right now and love all three. Apple's stuff are sexy and reliable but closed off. Android is less mature and lacks polish but has so much more potential. When I'm ready for my next phone, I'll look long and hard at an Android. If you like to.customize, I'd say go android. But I love my iPhone. You'll need to jailbreak it to unleash its potential.

[Nook Color General] newton1666:
This is exactly my setup, Mac, iPhone, NC. Syncing, one word - Dropbox. There is entire cottage industry around Dropbox, your Mac, and iOS devices. I don't think you'll be hard pressed to find exactly what you need right there.

But out of curiosity what are you going to be using the NC for, light word, excel type documents, pdf's? I use mine mostly to read ebooks/pdf's, 90%. There are a lot of things in the cloud that are fairly platform agnostic, Evernote comes to mind and different calendar sync apps. Just iTunes search for various one's to sync with google if want it to go with your NC.

As far as Verizon and iPhone, we'll just have to wait. In the US we have it bad, as iPhone (limited by att) does not tether. It's shocking, because in the rest of the world people tehter their iPhones.

I'd say go with iPhone, best of all worlds here, Mac, iOS with iPhone, and Android with the NC. What's not to love, you have it all. That's speaking as a Mac user of course.
[Nook Color General] Sigvard:
Same. I love my i4 and I also love playing around with my rooted NC, I wish the phone could just dual boot both OS and I could be content with that magic phone for the rest of my life.
[Nook Color General] wvcachi:
Each has his/her own preferences, it's really what you're looking for . . . I'd recommend spending time with a rooted android phone--not just the NookColor--before making a decision.

We're doing some amazing stuff here with the NookColor--considering what we started with--but this is barely scratching the surface of development on a device that's still running an eReader's stock ROM for crying out loud. That's not even to mention that it's based on (in tech years) an ancient version of android.

If you spend some time with a rooted Evo, Nexus S, or Droid X running a cyanogen ROM, I wouldn't even remotely say android is immature or lacks polish compared to iOS. If anything, I'd say it's the other way around.

I'm a former iPhone 4 and iPad owner, and I much prefer both my HTC Evo and the NookColor (even in its relatively primitive stage of development) over both of them (Plants vs Zombies is the only thing I miss, and it'll be on Android soon).

They say opinions are like a-holes: everybody has one . . . If that's the case, people having a-holes makes the world go 'round, because android would be much less interesting without iOS, and vice versa. I'd say go to stores where you can play with each OS' flagship devices for a while, check out the best each has to offer, and find what works for you.
[Nook Color General] eyecrispy:
I would actually say that stock android is better than stock iOS. But until android can support encryption out of box, I can't make the full switch because I can't sync with work.

[Nook Color General] rogerdugans:
As usual, ask a question like this and you will end up getting every response possible if you wait long enough. ;)

I know folks who love their Iphones and tether with them here in the US. Jailbroken, or whatever its called and some custom stuff, of course. So I don't think that needs to be an issue in the choice.

Android phones have excellent qualities out of the box though, and once they start being rooted and rom'd- fantastic, as far as I am concerned. The ability to customize and make them YOURS instead of the CARRIERS (at least in function and appearance) is far and beyond anything I have seen on an Apple phone.

There are some advantages to either, as always- if you are on the fence then I too would suggest trying to "spend some time" with both and see if that helps make the decision.
[Nook Color General] mad5427:
I appreciate all the responses. I know that everybody is different, but it's still nice to hear others experiences regarding their setup.

I an an architect by trade and my mac is my lifeline to do all my drawings and graphics, etc. I'd be lost without it. I won't be a hardcore user with all three phone/mac/NC in regards to work. I mainly want email, music, movies, contacts, calander, etc. to be able to be sync'ed between all devices. I make a change in one and I can update in all three.

I've been playing with both iPhones and rooted Android phones and it really is a tossup. I do like the idea of having the iPhone so if there are special iOS apps, I can get it and have the NC for any special Android apps. Best of both worlds. I also really have to wait and see how the Verizon iPhone will be. I'll play with it in store for awhile before I make a choice.

Then the next question is do I wait for the 4G Android phones to come out on Verizon? I'm content to wait until late 1st quarter 2011 until the dust settles on some of this. I just wanted to get some feedback from people on how their NC's are working with their phones, iPhone and Android.
[Streak 5 General] gilrad:
As those of you in Japan may or may not know, Docomo is planning on allowing foreign phones on their network in the coming months. The only stipulation is that the phone must be certified for use in Japan, and that it must be able to show that certification on the phone.

Since the Streak DOES have certification in Japan (under Softbank's network), it should be okay to use it on Docomo's network. But I suspect they're going to be technical about it and require it show its certification. So what I would like to ask of any Softbank Streak users, is to take a very high quality picture of the certification tag that is likely on the back of the Streak somewhere. It should look something like the attached image.

My plan is to make a simple app that displays it to hopefully convince the Docomo reps that it legitimately has certification.

Currently the Streak in Japan is going for over twice as much as the US counterpart, both subsidized and unsubsidized. Lets show them that they can't just block out global competition!

Extra 5mm of battery is better protection than any case. No case will work with the extended battery. The market is too small. There is talk that one would be released thats compatible with the 2800 Yoobao battery, which is the exact same size as the 3500, but that is all talk at this point.
