Hi guys

Just done the whole nand process which went perfectly and i have installed the latest version of MDJ's gingerbread rom.

I'm just looking through to find out what i need to do for a2sd+ but when i look at my stoarge i have 254MB of space remaining (before i've installed any market apps).

Do you still think its worth while doing this process or should i just carry on as is and just once anything thats large such as angry birds move it to sd manually?

Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
I reckon you'll be alright with that, just manually moving things you know to be bigger, as you suggested.

I was quite happy when I installed that and had 150MB free, so yeah - be happy and enjoy :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jason2234:
think i'll be doing this then unless someone tells me otherwise :)
[Streak 5 General] puunda:
I purchased a brand new Streak today from Optus in Australia. No contract, unlocked. It came with 1.6 and I was using it to browse the web (I was actually looking for a screen protector and case on eBay) while at the shopping centre. About 2 hours (on and off) of browsing I had lost my data connection. Tried disconnecting and reconnecting, and nothing, won't connect. Then my phone coverage is gone as well, along with the wifi and bluetooth. The phone still worked fine, but it seems all the radio had died. When I got home I updated to 2.2 through the Dell website, and same thing. The phone boots and programs work, just no connections at all. Rang Optus to make sure the phone wasn't locked, and I was assured it was unlocked.

So not had a good experience so far with my Streak. I'm taking it back tomorrow and will try to get my money back, but I will probably end up buying another one, cause when it was working for those 2 or so hours, I did really like the big screen
[Streak 5 General] crashDebug:
tough luck mate... sorry for you
[Streak 5 General] ruskival:
Hey sorry for your bad experience with the streak I think you just got unlucky with it, mine is an optus streak and I can confirm that it is unlocked, just take it back and make sure they replace it on the spot as it's obviously elf/doa. Take my word on this I got s.e. X10, galaxy s, nokia n8 and iphone3gs and iphone4, the best phone I use only dell streak

Live wallpaper like the Nexus S inspired a search & stumbled on AmbientTime, which can't be found on the market, outside Japan. After running for 24hr I can say it's the most efficient Home replacement! Battery life increased & its 5 screens with animated walls look great.

Google the apk and give it a look.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Wolfbreak:
Not all Countrys have Market Access (the most but not all) and AmbientTime Home is only available in Japan Market.

Hi All!

I've just start learning android for a few weeks and i hv lots of questions on publish an app to android market :S

I hv found guildance of paying the USD25 and how to upload the app to market. But I wonder, how can a publish a paid app?

I've read posts mentioned that we need a 'google checkout merchant' account first. But when i tried to apply one, i can't process becoz of the country information.

in the application form, it only hv choices for America & British. No choice for inputting other region...

So I wonder if anybody can share more information about these, and how they publish their apps. Is there any alternatives to bypass the google checkout merchant?

Thank you so much!
[Android Software Development] 00Ghz:
It's very simple to sell apps from "NO Pay Markets". PM for details. Not a good idea to post it here, google may keep an eye on this.
[Android Software Development] xaiai:
How about for free apps?

if i post my app for free, is there any 'market alternatives' that i can post to , so that i can avoid the 'USD $25' from google?

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revrak:
yes its possible. you need to change the live id associated with your gamertag

afaik the only way to do this is with an xbox360
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slighmd:
aww ok. don't have an xbox 360 console. hope they allow that option, like in itunes which you can do anytime, and any number of times
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Naz2kool:
I think it's possible for you to do this from the XBOX Live website. You'll need to log in to your account on the website and then go in to the Account Settings section. You may not be able to immediately change it there and then, but you may be able to email them your request to change the Live ID associated with the gamertag.

[Folio 100 General] flunkyou2:
i have ordered a folio 100 from HERE and they said on the phone that it might not be that model..... could this mean that the new Tablet will come around the date shown 1/3/11? :)

Lets hope so :eek:
[Folio 100 General] tshoulihane:
I think they don't understand what it is they are stocking. I would be surprised if the case and TV stand are included, even more surprised if the android market is included out of the box. Both of these are included in the description/photo that they are providing. Are you happy this is a legit company you are dealing with?
[Folio 100 General] flunkyou2:
Yeah the company is a massive catalogue company.... I hope they send a new Moslem lol
[Folio 100 General] bastospn:
Hello,

this seams to be the same old Folio. I don't think android market will be available withou 3G option, maybe with another android version, but not with

Froyo.
[Folio 100 General] jbbrans:
Isn't it about time, the 3G version of the folio comes out?

If it has 3G (and GPS), then the market is also possible out of the box.

The leather case and stand are not included in my opinion, not for that price.

[Droid 2 General] AsherChua:
Hey guys!I'm currently living in Singapore and will be getting a new phone soon.I'm thinking of getting a Milestone 2 because its physical QWERTY keypad and the processor is really tempting!Just some question,is the bootloader locked?Because if possible,I'm going to put a new ROM.Can ROM Manager be used on it?What are your opinions?Because I'm also thinking about the HTC Desire Z.So,please help!Thanks![/QUOTE]
[Droid 2 General] oTToToTenTanz:
Hi,

Tough question that depends on what you want to use the phone for. My 2 cents: the Droid2/MS2 has better hardware, especially sliding mechanism is much better. But you guessed right, the bootloader is locked, what means no custom ROMs with lots of changes. F.e. a custom 2.3 ROM will never be working on our devices...except someone hacks the eFuse. But I would not count on that.

Desire Z: bad sliding mechanism. And let us be honest: ugly design. Pro: open bootloader with many custom ROMs. Perfect choice if you want to tweak a lot.

I mean you can tweak with Droid2 but only minor things. F.e. the laggy interface coz of Motoblur can be exchanged with other Home replacement apps...

In the end, your choice :)
[Droid 2 General] AsherChua:
So would recommend it?Because I already feel that the Milestone 2 is fast enough for browsing and games!So maybe a custom ROM will not be needed.
[Droid 2 General] miketoasty:
I believe that the MS2 is still quite a good phone even with the locked bootloader. It has a fast processor (Which can be OC'ed), a good clear screen. As the above poster stated the keyboard slides very smooth, and its just all around a good phone. The bootloader is locked but there are still a good group of Devs that work on this phone which make some great ROM's despite the locked bootloader.

So all in all I would recommend the MS 2.
[Droid 2 General] AsherChua:
Most probably will try out a Motorola Milestone 2 first because its cheaper.If I'm not satisfied with it,will be selling it and getting a Desire Z!But I don mind a few more opinions!:)
[Droid 2 General] AsherChua:
Oh yeah,how much can I overclock the Milestone 2 to?Do I use setcpu or Milestone overclock?
[Droid 2 General] miketoasty:
I can OC my phone up to 1.45 ULV. That is the max OC but the amount on which you can OC it depends on how good your CPU is. Different phones can go to different speeds.

Use Milestone Overclock. Setcpu can only under clock our phones (Unless things have changed).
[Droid 2 General] AsherChua:
Alright,thanks!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cool007zqw:
Android version: 2.2 froyo (CM 6.0 mod)

SD Card: Kingston SDHC C2 16G

I made the read/write speed tests in 3 ways.

no1. using the app "SD Card Speed Test" on the phone

no2. connect the phone to PC and turn on the USB storage

no3. Insert the SDcard into the Card reader of my PC

see the results in the images attached.

Huge differences!

I think many N1 users have found this problem. But what I really wanna know is WHY?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wiggz:

[Droid Incredible General] DeathAdder666:
I've looked at repeaters and never found one less than about $150 that I would buy (which is why I don't have one yet). Most have mixed reviews so why bother? Maybe if you have no bars it'd be worth it.

If there is a homebrew solution I'd be interested in it.

[Droid Incredible General] userjf:
The current network extenders give you data. That is one of their new selling points. I got mine discounted for living in a "known trouble spot due to terrain". They give you 1x and EV bars, this has been the case for at least the ones sold during the past 4 or 5 months.

Yes, it will required a network connection... but it lets up to 6 people talk on their phones at a one time... so if your bosses could benefit from it as well....

hi all just a quick question about the archos 101 i just got mine in the post

is there a alternative rom that i can flash to it as i find the archos one quite laggy, if not what would happen if i installed the oxygen gingerbread one i have on my htc desire on it ?

thanks

Estevey
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarsnGadgets:
to solve the lag, install the latest firmware from archos.com

in settings/about device/powermanagement, set the cpu to overboost.

and install/use Zeam launcher.

you cant use a desire rom.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamzer11:
This is exactly what I did and it runs well for me. I still have some issues with it not coming out of standby after being left a while but for the most part this makes it an easy to use fun tablet. I am not that concerned with quadrant scores or creating some ultra powerful tablet. I was ready to throw it out when the firmware came out. Firmware + Zeam work excellent and now I use it everyday.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estevey:
i did this still not as fast and smooth as a HTC desire which i thought it would be or better than

still happy with it and cant wait till some custom roms are released for it

would rooting it make any difference to the performance and running the ext4 on a sd card ?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarsnGadgets:
I have an HTC Desire as well as my Archos 101.

The desire has more than double the ram of the 101, its bound to be more responsive :)

I think the 101 is very nippy to be honest once you set it on overboost and install Zeam. Also turning off live wallpapers and uninstalling (or not installing) voice search sped mine up a lot.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firewater2003:
Give try to or maybe switch to.....

To all tablet lovers,

In fairness to you guys, I heard a lot of issues of the Archos 101. Since it has a single core processor. No wonder the performance is getting slow. Samsung has the same processor, but it has only 7" screen compare to 10". Nvidia Tegra 2 core is on rocks in the market tablets right now, aiming for the new OS (honeycomb). Give a try to Viewsonic Gtab...it worth for the price of 16Gb.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarsnGadgets:
almost all release 'issues' with the 101 were sorted by the latest firmware update. Its now stable, pretty quick and great value for money.

the viewsonic is a good ptablet but the firmware sucks still, so im glad I went for the archos 101 to be honest.

I'd love a dual core tablet, and know that the gen8 archos tablets may never see android 2.3 let alone 3.0, but I bought the 101 knowing that it would run 2.2 and 99% of the apps out NOW, so I'm happy.

you cant get a better tablet for the money right now if you ask me.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awink1:
+1 I love my 101!!!
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estevey:
well i have sorted mine out !

i did reinitialization of the device and installed no 3rd party applications (i think this was the main slow down) then i bumped the cpu to overdrive in the about in settings and the big one here that made all the difference was disabling the eye candy (animation) which makes no odds if your going to install zeam which i did and the market

i am now very happy with the archos 101 and have no complaints after hearing some of the horror stories with the china alternatives.

all i need to do now is find a key bored that i am happy with also a updated version on zeam and i will be chuffed to pices

Steve
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarsnGadgets:
have you tried swiftkey or thumb keyboard (set it to 10" tablet mode), both are great alternatives to the stock one.

swiftkey are releasing a tablet version of their keyboard soon as well. :D

you say you disabled the animation...? where did you do that specifically?

cheers.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firewater2003:
I agree with you with NO questions, Stock OS is sucks! But there are 5 ROMS to choose (TnT, Zpad, Vegan, CM and Ubuntu) for you to tweak to get your Gtab into beast. Many of ARCHOS user tryinh to tweak too to get the tablet to its maximum performance right? Visit the forum once in Gtablet and you will see great good Developers and never ending supports.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estevey:
to disable animations simply go to settings and select animation then no animation it relay makes a BIG difference to the device'

Am not trying to argue with you guys, but lets face the reality...My first choice is Archos 101, i've been waiting for more than a month for my order, but its no luck. In my opinion Archos company is delaying the shipment, till i cancelled my order. My question is WHY? Maybe they still trying to fix those issues? I observe at the Gtab forum, and read those supports, issues, etc...and what a good community of developers. Thats why i convinced to get the Gtablet. But still i gonna buy the Archos 101 once it available in market (retailers). Am still a fans of Archos, but what a shame, Gtablet is on the rocks right now. Technically wise and supports.

Try to visit this forum just once if you have time..

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rose4uKY:
I love the Archos too have the 101. In the beginning I had problems and had to reset it twice but now it's running good. My EVO has double the ram but this is a decent tablet for what I want. I just unchecked that animation thing to see if it makes a difference. Not even sure what it does. I also had to uninstall Volice Search it really slowed me down and messed me up. Yahoo Messenger and Video messed me up too. I had a couple other apps not work but playing Word Feud and Angry Birds is great on here. I use it to surf the web and do facebook mostly and get some of my emails. I am glad I bought it.

I read up on tablets before hand and at first considered the Gtab but I am not into rooting and all that don't know how. I also had an older Archos 605 MP3/Video player wifi from way back when I Pod Videos 1st came out and I really like Archos. I love having the market place on here and my calendar being synced.

Ok, i have read many posts, the one from ODIN and ask people, watched videos, and nothing. Im starting in the rooting process, im currently on Phoenix 2.5, before i flashed this rom i made a backup rom with Clockwork, i decided to restore to stock using clockwork, but it failed on me and i fear that my phone was bricked. I flashed again the phoenix rom, but i want to return to my stock rom, but i dont know why, i just want to flash darkys rom, but i dont know how to restore back to stock, if i use odin by default i have to do the master clear, please help me, i dont want to be stuck on this rom.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gr8Danes:
#1: Are you disabling Lagfix before flashing? If not, that may be your problem.

#2: Prepare to be flamed for posting in the devs section with a Q&A post. ;)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] born_fisherman:
POST IN THE RIGHT SECTION :) (I guess I had to do that, right??)

To answer your question - Gr8danes is right, you should be disabling your lagfix to restore your backup first.

Do this by going into your /sdcard/voodoo directory - Create a folder named "disable-lagfix" and reboot your phone. You will hear the robotic voice reconverting your file system - this will take about 3-5 minutes.

Then proceed with flashing your stock backup.

If that fails, you will have to use ODIN One Click to revert back to Eclair 2.1
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phateless:
So as long as the file system is restored (voodoo disabled) you CAN nandroid back to stock? Awesome.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hernan078:
thanks a lot, and sorry for posting in the wrong section.

Suppose everything fails, when i decide to use ODIN, do i need to do the master clear?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
no you do not need to master clear

also, the nandroid doesnt backup the KERNEL or the MODEM so you will likely get a bootloop after trying to restore your stock backup. in order to get back to stock, the best option is ODIN.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hernan078:
im using clockwork, i did the backup with clockwork
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
yeah, clockwork doesnt backup/restore the stock kernel+modem for you (one of its downfalls on this phone it seems). thats a manual process. the other option is to use the JH7 stock+rooted rom, thats designed for clockwork
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hernan078:
But if i disable the lagfix, and do the restore using clockwork, it will fail? I MUST USE ODIN?? If i have to use ODIN, whats the point of doing a backup stock rom?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phateless:
Haven't seen that around here, can you link?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
dont know of any links. i just know in my testing that is what happened.

if you look at a backup done in clockwork, there are the following files created:

cache.img

data.img

datadata.img

nandroid.md5

system.img

if you are flashing from a 2.2 rom to a 2.1 backup, you will get caught in a bootloop because you still have the kernel from 2.2, as cwm doesnt backup the kernel for our phones. if you flash a 2.1 kernel, via clockwork, or odin, your backup will boot up, but you will probably get FC's on a lot of things, because the modem is still a 2.2 modem, and causes instabilities. if you then flash a 2.1 modem, your backup will boot up without any issues. the best way to deal with this is to keep a 2.1 kernel and 2.1 modem CWM flashable zips on your sd card alongside your nandroid backup, flash the modem and kernel, then restore the backup.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hernan078:
thats sounds to me like too much work, or things that i didnt do, best option is to use odin then, right?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opcow:
It backs up apps and settings, but it isn't meant for restoring firmware versions.

If you just want to run Darky's then just flash it and skip the whole returning to stock step. It's really not necessary.
