Search the RUU on the link posted at bottom (I think Desire is Bravo), but first READ THAT YOU MUST MAKE SURE IT CAN BE ROOTED AGAIN, BECAUSE MAYBE NOT ALL THE LATEST VERSIONS CAN BE ROOTED. OF COURSE, THIS IS IF YOU WANT TO ROOT EVER AGAIN.

It's an .exe to run on Windows, and connect the phone.

You can also look for an stock rom flashable from Recovery, which is more recommended

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ranzz:
So after being all excited about Atrix I found that MOTOBLUR might be a big downside on the device. having never used a Motorola Android before (HTC guy here) I didn't understand what the big fuss is all about, thinking that MOTOBLUR is just a launcher that you can get rid of in 2 minutes by installing LP or ADW or one of the other options (and that's even before flashing a different version altogether).

However, I was told that this was not the case, and that MOTOBLUR is not just a home launcher, but rather takes over "more parts" of the phone than a launcher.

I'm trying to understand - what does that include?

And generally speaking - how can the part of the "GUI" be defined on the Android OS? meaning how much customization power does Motorola / Samsung / HTC / LG have when customizing a device?

Will it be acceptable to say that since Android is an Open Source OS, each vendor can choose to customize as "deeply" as he wishes? and MOTOBLUR is just a rather "deep" customization UI which is largely considered as... no good?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] takkun1946:
Thankfully I don't have the MOTOBLUR on my Milestone. Oddly, it's stock 2.1 (sadly Hong Kong hasn't gotten the 2.2 just yet).

Yes, Android OS is open source and the companies have pretty much full reign. Hell, China has their own version that they've thoroughly hacked together for China phones (I think it's something like MOS...) which is a horribly done thing.

To get the Google certification/apps they have to meet hardware specs, but not sure about the software side.

As for MOTOBLUR (which I've heard is AT&T branding only) I'm betting it's much like Sense UI (for HTC). The "much more" is probably the widgets and apps/crapware thrown in with the UI updates.

It's my thoughts and if I'm totally wrong, my apologies.

EDIT: autocorrect typo fix
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ranzz:
Yeah China Mobile created Ophone later named OMS:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g71B1L2hJuU

Regarding MOTOBLUR being like Sense, ok but that's exactly the point - the Widgets can be thrown out altogether if you use a different launcher, and the apps are much like we have "Amazon MP3" for example on my Dezire Z stock. so I ask again... what's the big deal about MOTOBLUR being the devil?
[Defy General] sukiyaki:
Hi, i was wondering if is possible to see webpages with flash content on our defys. I use dolphin hd browser and i read something about flash 10.1 doesnt work on eclair 2.1??

any suggestions? (i dont like skyfire).

thanks in advance.
[Defy General] spamnco:
Yep wait for Froyo 2.2 which should be officially available in a few months or try some Chinese 2.2 leaked ROM if you can't wait (I am going to wait).
[Defy General] Kribou:
Hi,

On defy / eclair 2.1 at the moment is supported :

-Flash lite in the browser and outside

-Flash 10.x support is introduced locally in android Froyo 2.2 and remotely through Skyfire even in android 2.1 in that case :D

I have installed the flash10 app for android 2.1 which is properly installed but useless because not supported by the browser.

K

Note :

Skyfire has launched v2.0 of its Android browser that brings with it a new “SkyBar” that gives you automatic Flash video streaming. The browser doesn’t actually play Flash natively, it goes through Skyfire’s servers which are then converted to formats that the mobile is happier to stream, such as HTML5.
[Defy General] bobbyphoenix:
You can use Skyfire from the Market. It converts Flash to HTML5 which works on 2.1.

EDIT - Sorry I just read Kribou's note. Skyfire works very well.
[Defy General] Rhyr:
I used the tutorial on the link below and it seem to work decently:

thank you I did it and works with native navigator (not dolphin). Is not perfect, some flash doesnt work but thanks anyway.
[Wildfire General] Zeeko:
I've tried quite a few ways to get access to known Market apps with no luck - even friends of mine can get them but I can't on my two devices (Wildfire and Pioneer Tablet).

Can anyone help? I have tried Market Enabler, and the Appbrain Fast Installer and Web Installer which do not owrk anymore :(

The one App I am trying to get and have messaged the Dev with no luck for the .APK is 'Andro Daft' - its free and not really an important app but hey, I like Daft Punk. Weird thing is I can find the QR codes all over the net but nothing finds it on my market...and I have already got one of the Devs apps -so he isnt banned/whatever.

Any and all help is appreciated!
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
Have you tried flashing Sympnotic's patched market?
[Wildfire General] Zeeko:
Yes I have :( both the blue and green :mad:
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
Lol that's weird, i searched it up in the market and i can see it.

What rom are you on? Don't forget to clear your market cache and data after you flash his patch (latest one is v6.1 i think) and before you open up the market.
[Wildfire General] Zeeko:
I'm using WildPuzzleROM 2.2.1 v0.7, cleared cache, reflashed ROM twice thinking it might have stuffed other things up. It even did it on factory tel$tra firmware... its weird cos a mate not even 40km away can get it but he isn't exactly versed enough to know how to extract an apk to email to me lol.
[Wildfire General] yuli_capone:
I have the same problem. I can't use fast web installer, i fount it on market, i install it, but i get this error.

**PLEASE READ FIRST**

We made this android 2.2.1 kernel compatible with Nero v4 so you can simply flash the .zip right on top of it. However, additional files are included with this install to make this work correctly. Therefore, if you wish to return to Nero v4 with the stock kernel, you must flash Nero v4 again in order to revert. Because this kernel is based off i9000 source, battery drain will increase, there also might be other issues.

This kernel is more or less for fun and for those who want to experiment. I'm posting this as a bonus, so please do not report bugs, ESPECIALLY in the Nero 4 thread.

**DISCLAIMER**

No two phones will overclock the same, even if they're identical. Often its several factors that allow some devices to overclock more so then others. Some devices will not accept an overclock at all. Please take the time to acknowledge the risks involved with overclocking your device. Overclocking does cause additional stress to your system and can potentially result in overheating, hardware failure, data loss, lock ups, boot loops, bricking, etc. Team Whiskey does not take any responsibility for damages or data loss casualties caused by overclocking.

DoW 1.4 Ghz 2.2.1 based:

- Android 2.2.1 i9000 kernel source

- 1.4Ghz

- Made for Nero v4

Notes:

- Could cause increased battery drain

- May require a reboot after flashing to obtain data connection

- Setcpu usage recommended for optimal settings

Download:

[Vibrant Android Development] hanbaoquan15:
Thank you Som, you are the best.

- If you get bugs, sorry you've been warned.

This one should be A LITTLE more solid, but will still come with poor battery life due to the i9000 source. Nonetheless, its blazing fast.

In TB - click the "backup/restore" tab, then on the right side, chosse "click to edit filters" then in the earch box type "web" and hit search. You should see a bookmarks web 2.2 come up. Click that, then restore data.

Hope this helps.

i was running NERO_V3 never flashed V4 but i did download NERO_4.1 along with this kernel onto my internal and SDcard, i flashed ONLY this kernel ontop of NERO_V3 in CWM but now under build number it says "Nero v4 w/DoW 2.2.1 By Team Whiskey".... it used to say "Nero_V3"....and under kernel version it says "2.6.32.9" does that mean im running V4???.... either way everythings running smooth for me. no freeze or bug to report, linpak/quadrant/speed test all above normal for me and overall performance is great! im just wondering if im on V4 or still on V3 like i intended.
[Vibrant Android Development] junxracr:
Pretty sure just flashed kernal, which changed build number. 2.6.32.9 is stock 2.2 kernel, which nero v3 and v4 jl5 kernels are based off of. Dow is a 2.2.1 kernel from I9k galaxy s.

You would have to flash v4 to run it.

[Vibrant Android Development] trill12:
So I finally got around to flashing this kernel. And I love it.

People are getting alot of freezing, and Its from sleep profiles. Well, if you do some research on the SetCPU scaling, youll see that with the 'conservative' scaling option, a sleep profile isnt really necessary.

Conservative scaling underclocks the processor by default, leaving it at 200 when its not being used. Only when its necessary, will it incremently raise the processor speed. I.E. 400, 800, 1400

Conservative is better (IMO) than on demand scaling because with on demand, you get 200 or 1400, no in between. This drains battery faster, because the proc is staying at a higher number for longer amounts of time.

Im gonna test the battery life with this tomorrow. Im not going to charge it all day and see how long it can last me using conservative. Then, Thursday Im going to do the same with on demand, and I will report back with details.
[Vibrant Android Development] trill12:
Sidenote: You dev guys may want to check out the HD2 section. Theyve created a new scaling called 'smartass' which completely gets rid of the need for sleep profiles. If it could be altered, it may be the best bet for us Galaxy S users that want OC'ing and decent battery life.
[Vibrant Android Development] black spirit:
Great kernel and very fast, running Nero V4.1, but dam battery life is crap. What you mob doing to have great battery time? Full charge, 4 hours later down to 59%.
