Oh okay I shall give that a go and see if the flash runs all the way through without any issues.

Yes I have tried this it just spits out the message "your phone is up to date" even though it is running v1.6 my carrier 3 mobile Australia hasn't and as far as I know isn't planning on releasing The update.

thanks,

Vijay pather.
[Defy General] JamesDax:
I'm a noob so mayhaps I don't know what I'm talking about but here goes. On the 19th of this month T-Mobile(US) will start selling the Moto Cliq 2. This new device will be running Froyo and a lighter version of blur. To my untrained eyes that only difference between the Cliq 2 and the Defy, hardware wise, are the Cliq 2 is running at 1Ghz instead of 800Mhz and it has a slide out keyboard instead of the hard body the Defy has.

So then my question is that if indeed internaly the Cliq 2 and Defy are the same how difficult would it be to port the cliq 2 rom over to the defy and thereby giving us a clean and stable Froyo?
[Defy General] add.thebad:
you couldnt just set it to install and it would work but it could probably be forted since both roms will be motorola signed and probably have similar kernels and drivers

I have quick question about rooting this phone I used to have mytouch 3g I had rooted back in day. I was thinking about rooting it for superuser etc but I dont want to run custom roms atm. With Clockwork mod will it still t-mobile OTA update without problems or can the root/clockwork mod interfere and cause problems?

Thanks for the info :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwr2d2:
Updates come directly from Google.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
That doesn't answer the question, you can root without installing Clockwork Recovery. Use SuperBoot method by paulobrien.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] annndrewww:
I un-rooted because I had no need for custom recovery as I have no plans to flash a custom ROM, so if I use SuperBoot, I will be able to receive the OTA updates without a hitch from Google, correct?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shata:
Sorry for posting in wrong section, Anyways I went through did all the research and here is all the information you need to do it. Also thanks zephiK for the reply that kinda got me on the right track with everything.

[GUIDE] Unlock/Lock Nexus S Bootloader

[HACK] 23/Dec GRH78: Superboot - rooting the Nexus S

I didnt want to take chance on bad file for the .bat file so if you dont have MD5 checker here is one for firefox.

So to recap... This method will get your Nexsus S rooted, and keep your stock 2.3.1 rom with no modification to the recovery.

...Enjoy...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shata:
So just to confirm, this setup will still prompt the OTA update correct? If I accept it I would have to reroot the phone correct?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fruchtfliege:
since mdj released gingerbread 1.8a,we have a nearly perfect gb nand rom (at least for me). tastes are different, that's why i started a thread here by asking for modding possibilities of gingerbread.

has anyone tried to replace framework-res.apk to get a percenage battery icon?

is it possible to change the yellow progress bars and all other yellow coloured elementsr?

for me most important: can we make the background of contact app semitransparent like on jdms nand rom?

please do not forward me to tutorials of replacing framwork on (sd) desire builds. i guess it is not as easy as it was on sd builds :(

thx in advance!

[General Questions and Answers] manofcomputer:
Hey guys, this is my first time to xda-developers and I've NEVER rooted or flashed or did a anything to a device. This is my first time here and I got the Nook Color for Christmas. Being an Android fan i wanted to put FroYo onto it. I was on step 5 and when i plugged my nook in it booted up normal and a popup came onto my screen and said some thing didn't download right. I need help asap. If you need more details please ask.:confused::confused::confused::(

More detail. I looked above and there inst enough Lol. okay so basically i turned my nook off after step 4. THEN i plugged my nook in and it started up normally. then when it was done starting up it looked the same and i looked on my monitor and saw a pop up that was titled " Driver Software Installation" and it said "Device driver software was not successfully installed" then under it it had "OMAP3630" and "Device Unplugged" I unplugged it and it is still the same. but when its pluged in two things show up called "AutoPlay" which lets me just open files like pics and stuff i believe.

[Streak 5 Android Development] alexmoi:
Seen alot of blogs explaining how to update the android of Dell streak phones from AT&T and O2 but none for the Rogers with build number 7921.

Well i spent some time when i got my new phone to find out how to do it and to my surprise it was hard to find how to but easy to actually do it.

Only to follow 2 different site tutorials to get this done.

1. Follow the last part of the tutorial to get your streak to version 6601 ATT&T

after this phrase "If you just wanted to revert to O2 1.6 (build 4399) then you are done. If you are going to AT&T 1.6 (build 6601) we have to change the system so it will upgrade the the AT&T ROM."

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=805112

once you got your streak to 1.6 ATT&T build 6601 you must follow a simple tutorial with interactive video and even has a video so you can make it work with your win7 X64 witch alot of tutorials don't help with.

2. Follow this part to the letter and if you have trouble they have a FAQ section and even supply all the files you need.

QDLTool Visual Tutorials (for Windows only)

http://streakdroid.com/?page_id=92

In this second part all you have to do in general is set up all your needed drivers and stuff in windows then open the program and press RUN. Just make sure you do all the steps without missing one.

No need to go through the fastboot or recovery menu in this part.

And it gives you Full US version of android 2.2 from a locked version of Rogers android 1.6.

Hope this will help my fellow Canadian Streakers :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] lufc:
Thanks for Taking time to do this for fellow streakers:)
[Streak 5 Android Development] alexmoi:
No problem. It's my first one ever so i hope i passed to hole point and helped some (dell irritated) people.
[Streak 5 Android Development] kantras:
Actually, all you need is the 2nd step - QDLTool doesn't require any specific version installed on the phone.

Glad you like the visual tutorials .. let me know if theres anything I can do to improve them.
[Streak 5 Android Development] alexmoi:
The only problem i have now is i can't seem to change or hear the notification when i go into the menu to see them.

Also i heard the gps doesn't work on some models but i haven't inserted the sim card because i'm waiting for the rebel to come in the mail but without the sim card the gps doesn't work for me.
[Streak 5 Android Development] maek_it_happen:
The notifications setting and brightness are fixed in steves newest rom
[Streak 5 Android Development] alexmoi:
ok i see i can upgrade to steve's 1.5.3 only thing is do i use the one with AMSS or the V2.1 baseband

I'm unlocking it with a Rebel simcard
[Streak 5 Android Development] alexmoi:
In the guid (Beyond QDLTool) it says to use 1.5.3 + AMSS 1.5.1+. But i have read here and there that if your using the rebel simcard you have to use the No baseband one. So do i use the 1.5.3 no baseband and use the AMSS 1.5.1+ and follow all in the guide or do i juste use the 1.5.3 no baseband and skip the AMSS 1.5.1+ in the guide?
[Streak 5 Android Development] maek_it_happen:
im not 100% but i think you just need to flash the no baseband version thats it , you could ask that in the thread for that rom just to be certain
[Streak 5 Android Development] andymp3:
Hey...I have the rogers streak and was wondering if I update to dj steve's custom rom will i run into issues when the actual Rogers 2.2 comes out? Will I be able to put the stock version back on? I am a bit worried for warranty purposes as well...can it be brought back to stock or is it a one way ticket? Reason I ask is I also have several phones including a Rogers Acer liquid e and unfortunetly can't go back to the stock version of froyo because of some thing Acer and Rogers did in the update that recognizes the fact my phone was rooted and not running a rogers baseband or something like that...I just sold my Galaxy s because I was sick of dealing with Samsung and their issues....So from what I can tell Rogers is only releasing the froyo update in late spring and 3-4 months is crazy considering most of the other countries already have froyo on their streaks...Man Rogers is so bad for their updates...Anyways...can i temporarily update to the leaked versions or should I wait? Thanks
[Streak 5 Android Development] stoney73:
you are correct. if you want to use the rebelsim, you HAVE TO use the no baseband version. 1.5.3 is the latest version
[Streak 5 Android Development] rptw:
thanks for the great guide, I just got mine today and its already running 2.2 on 318 baseband

its true that u can qdl from any version though so I went straight from 1.6 to 2.2 prerelease then to 318 using the link in the streakdroid guide for beyond qdl
[Streak 5 Android Development] Archeob:
Thanks to the OP, I updated my Rogers Streak from stock 1.6 to 2.2 to StreakDroid 1.6 yesterday!

Despite my reservations, it couldn't have been easier. I used the QDLTool to jump from 1.6 to 2.2 directly, and I then followed the additional instructions on the StreakDroid site to flash the rom. The hardest part was installing ClockworkMod Recovery prior to all that to do a rom backup. For some reason it took many tries to get it to hold, but eventually it worked.

Unfortunately I may be in the minority but I dislike the new homescreen layout. I still haven't found a way to get icons and widgets to stay close together like they did in the stock 1.6 version.
[Streak 5 Android Development] umar.ranjha:
Hi guys,

I guess i have bricked the device while updating to 2.2.

As far as i know i have done nothing wrong i followed the Guide step by Step and Downgrade to AT&T firmware as the first guide in this post.

While i was running QLDtool it errored out and Turned off by itself. After since i have tried everything and the Device just Doesn't have power anymore. Pluging into wall socket is not giving anything either.

Any thoughts on this?? Any Help will be appreciated.
[Streak 5 Android Development] rptw:
from what i understand, you need a launcher that can let you edit the number or rows and columns on each homescreen, im currently using launcher pro and have 8 columns and 6 rows in landscape. hope this helps as im a new user too so not sure if this is what you meant
[Streak 5 Android Development] Archeob:
You're exactly right. I spent an hour reinstalling StreakDroid 1.6.0 with different DPI settings before giving up in frustration, but I found the settings menu for ADW the next day. I used a 6 x 6 grid and disabled automatic stretching, and that way my picture frames look perfect.

Great work on the rom guys! My Streak feels much more smooth and responsive than under stock 1.6.
[Streak 5 Android Development] cue_32:
Andy you shouldn't have a problem as long as you get a copy of the Update.pig you should be able to revert back.
[Streak 5 Android Development] mhart032:
Also check your density on the 1.6 streakdroid install. when i used us120 or denisty120- -160 they were to far apart. i also found that US180 didn't work the phone wouldn't boot. i had to use density180 vs us180 and everything is perfect. right amount of space. i installed just gingerbread stock launcher and im using the adw ex launcher its the best in my eyes.
[Streak 5 Android Development] andymp3:
Thanks...I still may wait though...I rooted my Acer liquid e and also just picked up a Samsung Captivate to play with and use as a back up..streak is so big...lol..nice to have a phone that fits in your pocket..... and since selling my GTi9000 i kind of missed it.....I love the streak and really don't want to void the warranty or better yet brick either...I am going to treat my captivate to the lagfix for now and maybe try gingerbread on my Liquid e...Been doing some reading and they are almost there...Still a few bugs however should not be long before they are worked out...As you probably noticed i love phones and have had like 30 phones in the last year...lol...Streak is my favorite so far...Have not touched my laptop much since i got it..Any news on when Rogers will come out with the official version of froyo? I read someone that April is the soonest? Anyone here anything else? I hope they come out with the update shortly ...otherwise I may be forced to root it...Any news would be appreciated..Cheers
[Streak 5 Android Development] oaf_tobark:
Pull the battery out and put it back in.

If the streak looses power, it will be stuck in a power off state and plugging in the cord will do nothing.

After you reseated the battery, you should be able to charge the device again.

After it is charged, follow from where you left off.
[Streak 5 Android Development] alexmoi:
If you want to keep your warranty. don't change versions and wait rogers for a very long time. I boycotte rogers and unlocked my streak and went with telus :D
[HD2 Accessories] JWhipple:
A coworker has one of these SlipGrip mounts for his iPhone - he SWEARS by it. My Otterbox Defender for my TMOUS HD2 is on the way and I realized that my current mounting solution simply isn't going to fit.

I found the SlipGrip for the HD2 in Otterbox Defender for TMOUS on Ebay, just ordered one. I'll post a mini-review when I get it!

http://cgi.ebay.com/SlipGrip-OtterB...Accessories&hash=item5d2b63c2be#ht_2726wt_905
[HD2 Accessories] JWhipple:
Sorry no photos at the moment, I'm at work and just got a moment to breathe.

The mount itself is made of Kydex, same material a lot of form-fitting handgun holsters are made of. It has just enough flex to it that you don't have to worry about the "clip" that the phone snaps into breaking after having used it many times. It has cutouts for the camera, for the speaker and for the flash. Turn your phone sideways, turn on the camcorder and use it as a dash-cam to document your trips! Use your GPS in landscape mode without the speaker's volume being blocked by the mount.

I have a number of handgun holsters made of the same material - this stuff simply doesn't break. It's tough, it's rough, and made to last.

The flex mount is EXTREMELY sturdy, and the suction cup to hold the mount to the window is top notch.

Sorry I couldn't go into more detail - my time is limited, but I can say that this was definitely a worthwhile purchase!
[HD2 Accessories] EL_REY666:
that is totally cool as hell...

do u think they would have one that atattches to like the AC vents?

i really dont wantt o have my hd2 all the way up on the windshield esp since i use it like my ipod and have about 1300 songs on it..

plus id like to use it as gps but id like to have it closer to me
[Nook Color General] droidseban:
Okay, so you open the built-in gallery app to view your pictures, but you see that it is littered by pixelated cover arts from the gazillion free books you have downloaded from B&N. So you think surely there is a menu option in this app to tell where to look for the pictures you want it to display. Well, unfortunately, there is none.

No need to fret, there is an easy fix (documented for some other devices on their respective forums). Here is how to do it for Nook. Basically, you place a file with the name ".nomedia" in the folders you want Gallery to ignore. Since I have a rooted nook with the Astro file manager installed, I will describe how to do it with Astro.

Open Astro and hit the home icon on the tool bar. Now hit the up icon on the tool bar and you will be placed in the root folder. Now open these folders: media, Digital Editions, Thumbnails. You will see two folders in Thumbnails - B&N Downloads and Digital Editions. Digital Editions has the cover arts for books sideloaded through Adobe Digital Editions PC App. Let's go into B&N Downloads. Open the folder Books in it. You will see all your B&N book cover arts here.

Pick a file from the list, preferably one of the smallest ones. Long press on it. Select Edit and then Copy from the popup menu. Now click the Edit button on Astro tool bar. Select paste. This will give you an option to rename it before saving. Name it .nomedia. Yes, the name starts with a period and nothing before that. Save it.

Now click the up icon from the tool bar to get back to Thumbnails folder. Open Digital Editions folder and do the same there to create a .nomedia file.

Reboot your nook and your Gallery should be rid of those pesky cover arts.

*************************************************************

Just to make sure you are in the right folder, here is the folder structure (which Astro will display above its toolbar):

B&N thumbnails/book cover art folder:

/media/Digital Editions/Thumbnails/B&N Downloads/Books

Adobe thumbnails/book cover art folder:

/media/Digital Editions/Thumbnails/Digital Editions

I am on 1.0.1 version, so can't verify these locations exist for 1.0 users.

[Nook Color General] jewnersey:
Thanks for this

//from the nook COLOR
[Nook Color General] rog152:
Didn't work for me as I do not have the Digital Editions folder there. " B&N Downloads and Digital Editions." I have the B&N Downloads and My Files" and my nook is rooted but still version 1.0
[Nook Color General] hoodoomagic:
Try the quickpic app, you can tell it to ignore or hide certain directories and it also loads much faster than the default gallery.
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
Ok, well, add the .nomedia file to whatever folder you do have that you want to block from the gallery.
[Nook Color General] droidseban:
Just to make sure you are in the right folder, here is the folder structure (which Astro will display above its toolbar):

B&N thumbnails/book cover art folder:

/media/Digital Editions/Thumbnails/B&N Downloads/Books

Adobe thumbnails/book cover art folder:

/media/Digital Editions/Thumbnails/Digital Editions

I am on 1.0.1 version, so can't verify these locations exist for 1.0 users.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Ghost Commander can make files, vs copying them... And the .nomedia affects all folders under the parent as well, so you could create the file in the /media/Digital Editions folder.

To see it actually change in most gallery apps, however, you'll need to reboot or force a media rescan.

Need help with an issue using ROM Manager Premium. Cannot seem to find any info on solving my problem and no one has responded to my other post.

Tonight, when I tried to run another downloaded ROM in ROM Manager, the system simply rebooted and never installed another ROM. What am I missing or doing wrong. I have followed the few instructions I have found, but no luck addressing this issue. Please help!

From another post...

Sorry if I placed this in the wrong forum. Still getting used to this site.

z4Rooted Droid X user.

System version 2.3.340 - Android version 2.2.1

Having an issue with ROM Manager Premium 3.0.0.5 and Flash ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.7...

After flashing clockworkmod recovery, I hit Reboot Into Recovery. The phone simply does a reboot and nothing more. I have tried several times.

Also using Launcher Pro Plus and Titanium Backup Premium.

Any help?
[Droid X General] bigshotrob22:
Did you install Koush's Droid X Bootstrapper? You need that so you can boot into clockwork recovery properly.
[Droid X General] zer0ed77:
No, sir. I don't believe I did. I did not see that as a requirement in using ROM Manager in any of the instructions.
[Droid X General] bigshotrob22:
Install that and launch the program. Click Bootstrap Recovery and I believe it asks for superuser permission, allow it and then it should say success, click ok. Now try to boot into recovery.
[Droid X General] zer0ed77:
Excellent!!! That did the trick!!! Thanks a lot.

I did a Nandroid backup. Should I be concerned the backup mentioned no sd ext.available and skipped that backup? Other than that, it went well.

I am going to go ahead and install RummyJAR through ROM Manager. Should I do a wipe data when it prompts me?

Thanks a lot for the help!!!
[Droid X General] bigshotrob22:
You should be fine.I get that error 2 and Yes do a wipe data.
