[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oefootball_70:
Okay downloading it to my Windows 7 bootcamp worked like a charm. I did the red dawn ROM. Isn't that one already over clocked?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cordell12:
I believe it is, 710 maybe not to sure I have never ran it. There are faster smoother roms to run, why that one when we have Froyo for the Hero :confused:
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oefootball_70:
Never heard of froyo... got a link?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cordell12:
From post #3 in this thread, links to Froyo rom and the overclock kernels...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10383466&postcount=3
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oefootball_70:
Okay so I would download this ROM ( Blue CM6 Build - EXTBLUE_31DEC.zip ) and then load it like before.

But then the kernel. How do you load those?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cordell12:
The rom in the link comes with the kernels in the link, so nothing. install that rom and thats it
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avs420:
Seems to me everyone could benefit from these ROMs being beta tested a little more. I'm ONLY running the DG leaked Froyo 2.2 but I've got it setup like I like. I'd love to flash a custom ROM but **** they're updated sometimes daily but at least bi-daily.

I rarely have the 30 minutes required every 2-3 days to flash to a new ROM, and make sure everything works.....

Anyone else in the same boat?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
I get your point but to be fair to the devs our phones can do a million different things. It is hard to test each operation. When a new rom comes out there will almost always be rapid updates as bugs are identified. If you do not want this then my suggestion is wait a week oro so after release, it usually settles down.

On top of this, some of us like flashing every day, kinda like a fast kid likes cake.

There are roms out there that offer no wipe updates. Once you flash the rom, updates do not require you loosing your settings and apps.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickysa2000:
2.2.1 is the latest Froyo for Captivate.. So choose one that is optimal for you and you can stop flashing till 2.3 arrives. BAsically all ROMs keep changing the kernel, apps and modems that you can do yourself!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cappysw10:
+1

Not necessary to flash each change unless it fixes a fault you have been experiencing.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Gotta remember there like us flash junkies... they find some new shiny toy and want to build and release it to us.

Most of the time everything works out great - sometimes there are bugs which actually get fixed instead of releasing a tool that does absolutely nothing (i.e. Samsungs GPS tool on the market)

I'm just happy that the chefs/devs keep cooking new ROM's to make my phone better :D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jmurph3:
I guess they could just leave it buggy and not fix anything as time comes by. Some people are only experiencing certain things at certain times and perhaps the devs are either not catching things as they test it out their selves or aren't actually getting some bugs that happen after they release it. So yes, there will be many update changes as time goes. Just be glad they're putting their own personal time into making custom ROMs so you can use them for your own personal use FOR FREE. I have no problem with it and I don't have time to flash everything 30 minutes either.

Conclusion: Free custom ROMs are posted and we more or less test them and the devs fix them as they find out whats up. Be happy and just go with it or quit using them!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avs420:
I am thankful for the devs and thankful for DG's contact who leaked the 2.2 build that I'm running (plan Froyo leak) but if I had a dime for everytime I saw a post that said

"damn I just flashed [soandso's rom] I wish I had waited" I'd have like $5.50
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeyMike01:
Every update I've done so far takes at most 5 minutes, and will not require any backing up or restoring or anything.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youthanasia:
I just got a new app from work in a .exe format.

can i put in a zip and flash it or do i have to change it to a apk file

I tried to put the exe file on my sd card and use astro to install it put it won't

I also tried to find a app to change exe to an apk with no luck

Thanks for any help!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phatmanxxl:
.exe are applications designed to run on windows. Renaming the file wont change anything. It has to be an app written in Android code or it wont work. DO NOT flash unknown/unsigned files in recovery (I dont think it will let you) but if you manage to it can brick your phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youthanasia:
DO NOT flash unknown/unsigned files in recovery

Thank you god for that answer!!!!!!!

I have a rooted Droid 1 which is now stuck in boot animation. Freezes up, then loops again. I can't seem to get it into recovery mode. Any suggestions?
[General Questions and Answers] PriceEddie:
Are you in the process of trying to root it or is it rooted and was functioning? I had that happen to me when I was rooting, and it was because I hadn't done a factory reset in clockwork mod before I flashed CM.

Eddie.
[General Questions and Answers] jpr122955:
It is rooted and was running fine. tried to download a new battery app from xda and when it went to reboot, froze up in the middle of the animation, then loops back again. Using Clockwork
[General Questions and Answers] PriceEddie:
Did you back anything up before it started to loop reboot? If so I can only think of restoring and trying again. Although I'm sure there is someone else who is better informed than me. Very much doubt it's bricked, put it that way.

Hi guys,one of my friend own this phone,that day we were just talking about how the official Facebook app from Android isn't that great.He then told me that he have already change to using the Facebook app that he downloaded from Samsung apps.I have not actually seen it before but he told me its pretty good.So,just asking whether can any one extract it and put it on the market for download or maybe put sine screenshots here for viewing?But an app would be preferred:) Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kimezra:
the facebook app from samsung app is also the same as the Facebook for android available in the market.

once i flash back the original boot.img, it works flawlessly.

No I'm completely stock as of now. Holding off on Modding till there's something worth rooting for. If anyone has a fix for this please let me know. Don't wanna hard reset unless I have to

[Android Apps and Games] Nooty:
Try LED me Know from the market.
[Android Apps and Games] MrWilliams2:
I think the OP was asking for an app that would give the LED a "disco" effect... flashing the LED in all available color sequentially. This add doesn't do that.

I would be pretty cool if there were an app out there for that. I know there was one for BB.

Hi. I was trying the HDMI out yesterday for the first time, and it works flawlessly. However, there is only a scaling of the 800X480 image to fill up the 1920X1080 of the TV. Is this always the case, or is there any way to make the elocity A7 output in native 1920X1080?

I just bought my HD2 ...but with all the power comes great power consumption.

Do you know any cheap AA battery HD2 charger?

[HD2 Accessories] Robson:
in my last trip to thailand, bought like 3 of them as they're dirt cheap...(a buck a piece). not too impressed as well. pop in your AA batteries (has the option of also using AAA), plug the usb port, plugged the other end to my hd2...took like 30 minutes to "charge" and in the end i only saw like 10% to 15% increase in my battery charge. given that i may need to buy several AA or AAA batteries just to fill up the tank on my hd2, i've opt to buy a spare battery instead.

cheers
[HD2 Accessories] smeddy:
For a better alternative, Google for the Powertraveller - about the size of a small pack of cigarettes and charges the phone more than 60%. Recharges via your normal plug and VERY VERY handy.

Don't know if it's a known problem, I'm with Miui milestine since 19.11 ver.

at first have a battery issue, had a little research and find out how to check if phone sleeps when locked. from then and on, I noticed phone sometimes won't go to sleep (after discconecting from charger, after playing with 3g, WIFI, GPS on/off)

soultion from me right now is playing with 3g, WIFI, GPS on/off,

when phones goes to sleeps battery is good, but I had enough turning 3g off check battery stats. lock the phone, open it, check again etc..

Does anyone know about the problem?

Soultion?

I'm running currently MIUI 31.12 on GOT 2.2.1 kernel (ITALY_WIND)

On these unofficial ROMs, batt life is always an issue. I'm using GOT 2.2.1 and have to turn off data and wifi if I want my charge to last over 24 hrs.

Porting requires access to sources. Don't expect a positive answer on this thread
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cantIntoCode:
Similar hardware? I hope your having a joke, they are very,very different. iOS is a closed source operating system with tight security, even if you had the same hardware it would be very difficult to get it to boot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mortify1:

Why do much bull**** and hate in here? Why all these elitism? We hate apple users because they believe Apple is always superior, but as I see it you guys are not so different here.

I actually lol'ed at this, no offense!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterotaku:
Similar only in the crudest of senses. The SGS has a vastly superior CPU.

Regardless of this, the reason WHY you see Android being ported to all sorts of things it was never designed for (netbooks, Iphone3gs, HTC HD2, etc...) is because Android is an open platform with available source.

The reason why you do not see things like IOS or Windows Mobile being ported, is because both are closed platforms with no source.

Whether it'd be desirable to tinker with IOS on different hardware is less an issue than whether it's actually possible. Though nothing is intrinsically impossible, I wouldn't go around holding my breath on this one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ickyboo:
SGS has basicly the same CPU/GPU as the Iphone4 did you know? Its just clocked at 800mhz and uses GX 545 gpu while we have 550 (I think I got the numbers right) Also Samsung builds the CPU's for Apple while LG makes the screens. Anyways no biggy. On a dif topic I like how they are porting over Android to Iphone4 now (Iphone 3G/no 3GS). IF someone somehow manages to port over ios to SGS it would be shut down in a micron by Apples lawyers
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_at_sgs:
Oh please don't say tight. Android are very similar in Security, maybe a bit better. I read a analysis about this yesterday on heise security. Everything big with a locked bootloader, is a meal for hackers like fail0verflow.

To the Questioner. I hope you are joking. Not only the OS is diffrent based additionally the hardware is a little better. It's not the same SOC. Maybe you should by iPhone (personified) and live in ignorance what's happening in your OS.

So don't bother, the most people do that.

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] kenikh:
I've been seeing a lot more interest lately from the XDA community regarding Azure and figure it is worth starting a thread to try to answer some basic questions.

First, I'll be up front with everyone...BizSpark is my day job, I work for Microsoft and technology evangelism is my passion. I can think of few things more exciting than what the Cloud is going to bring to the market through mobile device in the next few years. We know who's going to be on the front lines of driving this innovation: you are. So let's answer those questions:

How does someone get Azure for free through BizSpark?

Sign up for a BizSpark account here
​

This is the updated site that offers information: BizSpark Azure.

Deal is, you sign up for the introductory offer (free), set your subscription to (not “Auto Renew”), and then after 16 months sign up for the BizSpark Azure (Again, free) for the end of your agreement.
​

Who qualifies?

Yes, there are qualifications, but pretty much anyone who cares enough about software development to be reading this sub-forumon XDA will qualify. If you are actively developing software, you aren't developing this project for a publicly traded company, your project/startup is less than three years old and is making less than US $1M annually, you qualify. That simple.
​

What other products can I get?

BizSpark pretty much gives you a premier MSDN account for three years, so if it is on MSDN, you can use it. Dfinitly everything you car about: Visual Studio, all of the Expressions products, etc.

Many products have stipulations that they be used for development purposes only, but Azure, Server, SQL, etc can be used in production, meaning you can go live, host your product and try to make some money with it.
​

Can I get a free AppHub developer account, too?

No, but there's always hope...

​

Why is Microsoft giving their stuff away for free?

Because there should be no excuses for startup developers to not have access to the best software development tools on the planet.
​

If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or send me an email through the board.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] williammel:
I thought this could be a cool idea so I applied, and got denied about 6 hours later. The email told me I do not qualify and to look into Dreamspark or a MSDN account.

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] tiwas:
I applied, but...my company is older than three years, but has only done software dev for one year. Hopefully I'll be allowed in, but not holding my breath. Might actually still be cheaper to create a new company and apply via that ;)

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] seraph1024:
For those weary about bizspark, it is a great thing for start ups. There are other things that come with it... not just free software. I am glad someone from MSFT is here to talk about it. You do need to be less than 3 years old and make less than a million dollars in revenue in a year -- which is always the case for most startups.
