my choice is WM6.5 and CHT 1.8.5

still waiting for it
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JayMore:
I have been working on the COM2 build, but I'm having some issues keeping me from releasing even a beta version. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sashzxc:
never mind

i"m have enough time :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Blairware:
Looking good!

I will flash this weekend and report findings (Can't do it during week, I have too much dependancy on a stable phone. Just so you know, I have flashed EVERY ROM that has come out for HD2 (Those that work on TMOUS 1024) so I have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly.

This looks very nice, I hope it works as well as it looks. Before I flash, I want to know: ANYONE WITH TMOUS 1024 Flashed this baby yet?

If it's truly WWE, and based on 3.14, AND my radio is 2.15.50.14 - I think my odds are good, but I really really really can't brick my phone, so perhaps I will hang tough until some other moron... er, I mean "Brave Soul" does a flash of this onto T-Mobile hardware :)

Yjamls, and welcome! You requested bug reorts, and knowing the crounds on XDA, I cam

promis you - you WILL get them, LOL!

Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JayMore:
Hello,

It is completely based on Stock TMOUS 3.14 ROM and driverbase (the non-TMOUS 3.14 would need SPL 3.03 to work correctly and there is no HSPL version to cover that yet), but I'm not sure what makes it compatible with 1024LEO and I don't have a chance to test it either. Please do

not

flash until somebody gives me a hint on this compatibility issue or if anyone was foolish enough to try it and can post positive feedback on the subject.

Anyway, sooner or later this 1024-compatibility will be provided by me - one way or another -, be patient until then! ;)

Thanks,

Jay
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JayMore:
So far, no bug reports at all. Is that good or bad? :confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mkimv:
is this ROM an android friendly?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JayMore:
No, not yet. It will be when I'm done with the final version. ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JayMore:
Even though hundreds of people download the beta version, the topic is abandoned. What gives?? :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JayMore:
I am sorry but without bug reports, I cannot move to the final release. The project has been on hold since more than a month now...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] martint235:
Just flashing now. Will let you know of any bugs I find

Edit: I gave it a brief go but I don't get along with CHT (I know I'm probably the only one). I didn't have any problems with installing and running apps or internet connection. I can't comment on battery life as it's not been long enough.

If you develop a plain 6.5.3 one I'll give it another go.

On the plus sides for anyone considering this ROM, it seems quick. It looks good, I like the black and purple and the old style icons on the ribbon.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JayMore:
Not planning on plain ROMs as of now.

Thank you for your opinion.

[Defy General] s.yang:
Hi all,

I've recently bought a DEFY. It works quite brilliantly and very fast.

I've noticed that the USB rubber cover of my DEFY is not very firm when closed. There is a little seam between it and the phone body, and the seam grows a bit thicker as it approaches the USB port side. I've included some pics of it.

Higher res pics are at

ishuo.de/images/defy1.jpeg

ishuo.de/images/defy2.jpeg

ishuo.de/images/defy3.jpeg

(Sorry I don't have enough permission to directly link pics here.)

I've also spilled some water onto it under a water tap. When I opened it I could see some water drops on the edge of the inner side of the rubber closer to the back.

I don't know whether this is normal or defect and I'm not sure whether it will stay up against water which is one of its great and practical feature.

Can anyone compare it with yours? Are all DEFYs like this?

Thank loads and happy holidays!

Cheers,

Shuo
[Defy General] scrannel:
When I close mine I am careful to press it in firmly as otherwise it looks "not quite shut." It has to squeeze in there. I presume this what's suppose to keep water out and as I have dunked my phone countless times without incident. However, if you think yours is twisted or bulging when seated, I don't think that's right.
[Defy General] psixda:
Mine doesn't have that small hump when in place. I think there is some extra rubber under the clip.
[Defy General] Higgsy:
yeah mines got that, you get the bump when the cover gets bent the other way when you move it to get the usb cable in
[Defy General] bobbyphoenix:
After charging mine looks like it will stay with the bulge like that when I put the cover back in place, but even so, I can press it firmly, and it actually snaps into place. Sort of even has a clicking sound. I only started noticing this as before I would press it in even, and the bulge would stay there for a while and slowly smooth itself out, but now if I press it in, and then press my thumb/finger all the way around the cover, it snaps into place very tightly.

EDIT - After looking closely at mine I see the hole is actually at an angle, so pressing it in straight would leave it with the bulge. You need to press it against the angle of the phone for it to snap into place.
[Defy General] pinkllama:
exactly what i was about to say - works for me.
[Defy General] s.yang:
Wow you are so friendly guys. :)

Thanks lods! I'll look into it when I come back today!
[Defy General] s.yang:
I did get a slight feel of "snap in". Just dunked it shortly into water, and it still lives!

So I guess it's all right. :)
[Defy General] nidlaX:
I get some moisture around the USB plug hole even when the cover is in place as well. Probably not a big deal. You can try using some grease to improve the seal as well.
[Defy General] scrannel:
One review notes a small amount of "O-ring" sealant or grease around the battery cover rim. I supposed you could add a little. Just don't use vasoline, that's a pertroleum product and will degrade certain types of real and synthetic rubber.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedysilwady:
I fell asleep last night and had my phone on the charger and when i woke up this morning it was off. I tried popping the battery out and back in but it still wouldnt come on. It wont enter download mode, or anything! I was on Nero v3 with Voodoo Kernel and its completely dead im freaking out right now and idk what to do! :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtiryan:
Have you tried entering download mode from ODIN?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedysilwady:

Amazing, the cheapest cable I could find came in a set.... screen protector, cheap case, silicone or plastic backing (in many colors) and an OEM cable! $12.99!!

Even the same retailer is selling the same cable alone for $15.99

dealextreme the cable is it able to charge

it only say data cable

if anyone can confirm this
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] selat:
it depends on charger not on the cable!
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] iamloco:
I know it need 5v 2amp

sometimes those cable only charge or do only data because they dont put all the wire

i guess i'll try it anyway
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Lucky_Charms:
Are the cables and chargers for all galaxy tabs the same? In other words will a charger and cable for a P1000 work with a US T-mobile Tab? If so then $4.50 is an awesome price for a car+home+usb cable and charger. Please let me know because I need to replace my lost charger and cable and I dont want to pay samsung $50 for a replacement.

Sorry to be confused but what actual cable can i buy that will charge and sync? do these above cable work with the included samsung wall charger that came with the tab?

also what do i need to view the tab on a TV and anyway to use a remote control with the tab)?

i know i can buy the samsung dock but do i need to buy the vzw hdmi cable or any normal hdmi cable will work?

or can i just buy this from vzw (is this all i need)

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] jay_jay_n:
i bought this from ebay and it works great charges and syncs but i haven't found a usb port that it charges via computer and syncs at the same time.. just works like the oem cable

$3.99 USD =)

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] sillyrabbitt123:
thats great! thanks! is there an oem wall charger on the cheap too that this cable works with? the samsumg stuff is outrageously expensive.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Geletis:
Someone just posted a very negative review of that item on Amazon. It seems both chargers are regular 1 amp units and won't charge the Tab.

Not a terrible price for just the cable, but I'm not buying anything from a vendor that so terribly misidentifies their products.

I suspect Monoprice will have data cables for under $2 in a week or two.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] dbregman:
I can see why the buyer is upset, but even at 1 amp, if the cable is correct, it should charge the Tab, just at a slower rate. I use bricks rated under 2 amps all the time. It just takes longer to charge. Afterall isn't the output from a standard Usb around.5 amps? With my Tmo Tab I can charge when connected to my PC.

I suspect it it doesn't work in is the cable.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Lucky_Charms:
I just bought this cable and charger so I hope you're right. Actually I'm pretty sure you are right because I have been charging my tab via my laptops usb port during this past week and it does charge, just way slower.

I'll post back and let everyone know it it works or not when I get it.

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] heythorp:
Seems like the item is no longer available either.

I did order one before that user posted his feedback. Its still not a bad price for a spare cable.

We will see. I did get a message saying it had been shipped should be here Monday or Tuesday.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] netimes.com:
Note that there are mainly 2 lengths for these generic cables, 80cm and 120cm.

We have the 120cm one for US$4.70 plus shipping in case anyone needs the extra length.

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Lucky_Charms:
I just received my chargers and cable. The charger is indeed only a 1amp but it still charges my tab. Havent tried the car charger yet.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Palary:
Usually they will still charge ; though the battery icon on the TAB will show a charging sign with a cross. (But it is very slow).

Likewise on a PC; it will also charge; but if u are using Tethering, the battery will discharge (but slowly too)

Using a 2A adaptor will definitely charge the TAB faster. And it is advisable to use it if you are into Wifi Tethering.

I bought this from Dealextreme SKU.48826; surprising it was able to provide the 2A rating to charge my TAB; very pleased with it.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] dbregman:
I image that if you had multiple devices plugged in it would charge slower. I have a three port rated at 1.5 and with two or more deviced plugged in it slows the charge down (1.5a for one device, 1a and 500ma for Tab and Phone, 500ma each for three devices).

I did find on deal extreme (for those of us in the USA) this charger that looks decent. http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.6872 (sku6872)

I just wish it had folding blades.

Caught wind of this yesterday too and am very intrigued, wonder if they will release it with a UK adapter and whether it will work with my Tab. Might be a very nice solution to carry for charging my Desire too and avoid having to carry multiple plug adapters.

Thanks for this, think I would prefer to get a slightly longer cable than the stock one. Does this charge too?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kpkpkpkp:
When you do a backup via ClockworkMod recovery, are the efs files included?

e.g. Theoretically would restoring a nandroid backup fix a broken IMEI?

I've searched and found conflicting reports.

Many thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbohm:
push it really would love to know if it would restore it!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android.francis:
it really depends on how you made your nadroid back-up.

there are a couple of options when doing a nandroid back up.

if you select the "ALL" method then it will back up your system files as well as your EFS folder.

go try making a back up to see it for yourself via cwm.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbohm:
thank u for ur answer of course i made an nandroid backup before but on my cwmrecovery i don't see an option to make an partial or full back up just all

my backup directory looks like that :

nandroid.md5

cache.img

datadata.img

data.img

system.img

450mb

any more help?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kpkpkpkp:
Thanks for your reply. I tried to create a backup, but it seems my recovery is 3e rather than 2e so I can't. From what I've read I need a modified kernel with 2e. Does that mean I need to risk a flash before I can even backup?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbohm:
i made it that way rooted backed up efs folder flashed hardcore kernel made nandroid backup factory reset flashed darky's 7.0 than 7.5,7.6,7.7.....

perhaps u could make an nandroid backup via sdk remembered smth like that with the n1 i will search for some infos later(just on my phone sorry)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbohm:
push it real good

haven't found anything so far about nandroid without cwm on sgs ....
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android.francis:
wait.. back up a bit.. you said your were using clockworkmod recovery.. but now you're stating that you are using 3e recovery.

i was giving you instructions on how to do a nandroid back up in cwm recovery. i haven't touched 2e and 3e in ages.

go get cwm recovery and do the back up there.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbohm:
like what i was doing he just needs to back up some stuff(efs,perhaps titanium backup) and i would „risk'' it any day again

speeking of cwm i just can choose backup not what i want to backup
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbohm:
push it good back to top
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbohm:
No one?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheNikkoMan:
If you look at the list on the 1. page, there's no efs.img, meaning you don't have a backup of /efs.

I think in order for cwm to take backup of efs, you have to use the newest custom kernels, as they include cwm customised for I9000. If you use the backup option on Rom Manager you'll have problems later.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbohm:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agirrenorrin:
Is it possible to extract only /efs from the nandroid backup and more important to me, will an "old" backup do the job to restore an imei.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] str8str:
Re efs backup

Use online nandroid manager it backs up efs and whatever else you want. You can choose or let it do it's thing. :cyclops:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
If you backup whole build, yes it does.

It is nevertheless a good idea to backup your efs folder separately, by using ADB or with terminal emulator.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inspir3:
does a different model have a different path for EFS? I wanted to backup my phone's EFS via ADB, but haven't found any path by googling...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
Well, many phone models differ in this matter a bit indeed.

For the i9000, this should do it (terminal or root shell):

su
tar zcvf /sdcard/efs-backup.tar.gz /efs

It will create a tar.gz file on your internal memory. Be sure you copy&paste it to the external memory and to the PC as well.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inspir3:
Oh thank you :) I appreciate it, but my devices is different model, LG F160L

I post here because I haven't found specific forum for my device, and this thread seems to be about efs in general...

It's really hard to find information in english for my device
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
I don't know how to do it on your advice. Very often there are some tools for it and maybe if there is a TWRP recovery available for your device, it often contains an option to create a backup of the EFS folder.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inspir3:
but it should be in one of mmcblk right? If so, I could try each and research... I need to narrow down doubts to be sure at least where to search for it :)

EFS Backup & PhilZ Touch 6.48.4 on S3

I just checked a Nandroid backup made with PhilZ Touch 6.48.4 (latest for the S3 I9000 currently) > Backup and Restore > to internal memory: > Backup to /sdcard OR to external memory: > Backup to /storage/sdcard1 and it does not include an EFS backup.

On must choose Custom Backup and add the EFS selection.

But since the EFS backup itself is so small (25 MB) it's worth doing a specific extra backup just for it IMO. As per the main PhilZ Touch thread:

One annoyance, the S3 connected to a Windows 8 laptop in MTP mode does not show the .efs_backup folder in the clockworkmod/backup/ folder even with the show hidden files in the folder options so had to disconnect the S3 and switch to Mass Storage mode with SG USB Mass Storage Enabler to see it and be able to copy it to my laptop.
