[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
Wiping via ClockworkROM doesn't do a full wipe. I've encounter what the OP is talking about. I can wipe the factory ROM then go to flash a Cyanogen ROM and my wall paper sticks and some of various settings stick. Yes a factory reset and a Cache Clean, and Dav Cache clean and it will still stick.

He is talking about 100% fresh clean phone like you bought it brand new.

that's exactly right... 100 % fresh clean cm7 is what i'm looking for... but i can't seem to get a full wipe... keeps restoring some settings
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Arthedes:
Hello everyone, it's me again...

Please read this first, as it is the reason why I started MTTY. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10487426#post10487426

I used this guide to MTTY http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=540290

I did exactly as described in the guide, exept for the "Remove Watermark" thing, as it is for windows x65 and x84. I have a 32 bit system.

I used the Energy.DIAMOND.28244.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Dec.21.7z ROM

I used the "flash from internal storage" method. Again, I did exactly as the guide described. I did change the ROM name to what is described in the guide, and when i did that, my pc warned me if i changed that which was after the .xxx , the program couldnt work properly anymore. I continued anyway because I was pretty sure it would work. I changed the name to DIAMIMG.nbh

Maybe that's what's wrong?:confused:

I used the MTTY program, and selected USB.

I typed: set 14 0

I typed: task 29

In the guide, only one file failed to be erased. I had four un-erased blocks.

I typed: task 8

I immediatley disconnected my device and held vol down and back for over 2 minutes. The startup screen came, which displayed TouchDiamond as normal, but this screen stays there forever, no matter what I do.

The only thing I can do is enter bootloader. Then, when i hook my device up to my computer, "serial" changes to "usb". When i check control panel--> device manager, I can see my device is hooked up. When i disconnect, it isn't there anymore. That means my pc still recognizes my htc.

Is there any way to fix this? Was it a wrong ROM version? Was it a Wrong HardSPL version? Please help me.

I've made a backup before I even started with the Hard SPL, but i'm not sure if thats the ROM, or the settings and some files on my internal storage. It's about 30-60 MB.

Please help me.:o

Also, I have downloaded the original rom from htc, but i'm not sure how to flash this, as activesync doesn't recognize my HTC device.

Again, please help me. There has to be a way.

Thanks in advance:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ayyu3m:
connect ur diamond to pc and flash from PC
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ayyu3m:
btw u can still get ur original rom from htc netherland site....use ur serial number in ur device
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Arthedes:
I downloaded the rom from the htc site. i just flashed it and it works.

Now how to flash the energy rom? im still not sure which method to use, because it's now working like the htc one. it's a .z7 file. The htc rom was just double clicking and following the instructions. It may sound stupid, but i dont want it to happen again:)

Happy it's working again tho.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ayyu3m:
glad ur device is working again. and dont worry if it happens again. becoz you can bring it back with htc rom always.

if i may suggest, how about you try a non-energy rom jus to kick in the confidence in you.

try another custom rom....then you can be sure if its really ur device or the energy rom file that is corrupt.

some users hav had issues with their energy rom files downladed being corrupt
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dash_ilyushin:
Hi there...

File with z7, it's compressed file. You need to extract it first to a new folder. Then you can try to flash again.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Arthedes:
Hello again.

I did notice when i first downloaded the energy rom that it was a 7z file. But when i tried to unzip it, there was no such option in the drop down menu. This is my mums pc, so I think it's not installed on this pc.

I'll try to unzip it today after school.

If it doesn't work then, I'll try to flash a few other roms, just to be sure.

I'll keep you updated. Thanks for the fast replies tho^^
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Arthedes:
It's working! I just used 7Zip and ran the RUU included with the ROM. Ill try several as maxsence 2.5 is a bit sluggish, ive tried two, but the 23699 build doesn't have cookie 2.0

Really happy and thanks for the replies, guys(or gals)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ayyu3m:
see...i told you so...this is called the "CROSS CHECKING"....

now do you (or everyone else) believe me when i say there are some energy rom files that are corrupt or refuse to flash to diamond.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Arthedes:
no, it was not corrupt, I was just so stupid not to unzip it first, that's all.

There may be some files that are corrupt, but i haven't witnessed one.

Now i know how to, i'm one die-hard flashin' mother******

[Nook Color General] Canadoc:
Problem. Weird new issue. Seems now when I install new apps or delete them. They don't change in drawer on Adw. This is true until a reboot. However they do in the stock launcher. This seems to be the reverse behavior from prvious. Anyone have idea why it might have switched and how to fix? Only thing I can think of I installed a new keyboard.
[Galaxy Tab General] tj1984:
The Tab is the first gadget I have meticulously looked after buying it a screen protector, leather case etc. What a surprise it was when I took it the case and found some minor yellow faint marks... Ignoring them thinking it was the light I put it back in the case...

Fast Forward 1 month

The yellow patches have increased and are now an unsightly brown!!

It really does look like Samsung have been hit by the same issue the original white iPhone did.

The below picture has had the main marks highlighted in red circles. The other marks are the poor quality camera of the *ahem* white iPhone I own...

What do others think? I have tried using my glasses cloth and cannot remove any marks. It's not got wet and it certainly hasn't been overcharged... :(
[Galaxy Tab General] agentdr8:
Maybe contact Samsung for a warranty replacement? I'd be miffed if my device turned brown over time.
[Galaxy Tab General] tj1984:
Just off phone with them. EXTREMELY quick to say it is nothing to worry about but their technicians would like the device back for repair as soon as possible.

Was a weird call actually, normally you just get the whole 'please send your device to here and we'll fix it if needs be'. This time I got:

'Mr James, I need to call you back after I have checked something..'

Then on the call back

'it is nothing to worry about, your handset will be absolutely fine but we would like it back as soon as possible for repair. Again it is nothing to be concerned about.'

Sounds rather suspect to me.
[Galaxy Tab General] agentdr8:
Lol, sounds like they think it's going to burst into flames and cause bodily harm resulting in very expensive litgation. Enjoy your new tab when you get it ;)

my question is back when i was running windows 6.5 when i first got my phone i called and got the unlock code because sometimes you never now and figured it would be nice to have. so with stock tmobile rom my phone was unlocked and i could use a att sim card to freak people out.

now that i have placed nand andriod i attempted the same trick to use a att sim card to help someone out to use my phone and it didnt like it. im curious with using nand did that completly remove everything including my unlock code to my phone if so how would i go about doing that again.

sorry for the long post figured id try and be as detailed as possible

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgjjaf:
Has anyone seen this before? I am getting a -0.00 results in SpeedTest.net in my N1. Actually, all the tests that I ran appear to be very inconsistent, going from 3.5Mbps to the -0.00, from one test to the next, so I don't know if it is my phone or the t-mobile network. I did a couple of test over wifi and those were very consistent results.

I started having this problem after flashing Rod's MIUI mod, and then going back to CM 6.1.1. I did a complete reinstall of CM and flashed the radio and no changes. I am not really aggravated by this problem, but it is kind of annoying, as my data transfer is very slow some times.

Any comments will be highly appreciated.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mellowgato:
I get that sometimes if I have the app open and switch between wifi and cell network, or vise versa. I just close the app and then reopen and it works fine.

You might want to flash your old radio back (if you changed it).

You can also try flashing the radio prior to install of new rom.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wang1404:
It's tmobile network. Cuz you gotta watch the data connection indicator on the status bar. If theres no arrows go up and down the connection is weak, very weak or mostly no connections at all.
[XPERIA X10 General] ProBoner:
... for forgiveness? :D

I was giving this some thought the other day. I like the hardware in the x10 (great GPS, pretty decent cam, LED notification light, nice look to it, etc) but SE has really screwed us on the software!

I would say probably over 50% of us here on this forum are likely to move on to a manufacturer who will not give us a phone with a locked bootloader despite releasing it completely crippled right off the bat.

buuuuuuut, what if SE dropped a bombshell on us just before they stopped supporting the x10? What if they released a port of the ARC 2.3 software for the x10? Complete forgiveness, partial forgiveness, or too little too late?
[XPERIA X10 General] saltorio:
If such a 2.3 release came along with an unlocked bootloader:

I'd be happy, and more inclined to wait and see regarding SE products in the future (to see if they indeed had smartened up).

If such a 2.3 release came in the next month or two:

I'd say "thanks", I'd be less pissed off and thus probably stop my campaign of exposing SE's lack of customer support in every SE-related article I come across, and still switch to another manufacturer when I get my next phone.

If such a 2.3 release was sometime many months from now:

I'd say "about time", and continue as I do now, and avoid SE products in the future.
[XPERIA X10 General] batman_112:
+1. I agree... ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
I can guarantee that they will not unlock the bootloader. Why would they? So that people can steal their precious Timescape/Mediascape?

2.3 - I realized that I'm too used to Timescape... the Launcher Pro friends widget has too many bugs for me and I've not found anything as nice to look at as Timescape. However, a little less battery sucking would be appreciated

So even when the AOSP reaches 2.3, I don't think I will flash :(

I am wondering if anyone can take up this little project.

Basically this is the Car Home from the T-Mobile Vibrant and i am wondering if anyone can play around with it so that A: it can fit on the Galaxy Tab (app does not center properly as you can see from the picture), B: if the Contact icon can be made to work properly (as you can see an error mesage comes up) and C:when selecting the search icon nothing happens(the one on the right hand side of the contact icon)

Bellow please find the link to the app so anyone can play around with it. It is called com.sec.android.app.cradle-1.apk. Hopefully someone can give it a try.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=895638

Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy Tab General] adinis78:
Wow no one wants to pick up this little project? :-(
[Galaxy Tab General] knightnz:
Maybe just not in the 1 day since you posted it.

There's already a few good car home apps that work fine on the tab, which may be partially responsible for peoples reluctance to spend their spare time on this project also.

It's probably just a case of changing the name of the app it's calling, why not take the APK apart and see if you can work it out yourself?
[Galaxy Tab General] b0ricuaguerrero:
i extracted the apk, but that's as far as i can go. have no idea what to do:D

this can get the ball rolling

as you can see there are three folders layout, layout-land, and layout-port

i dont know how to mess with xml files or dev in any other way, so someone can take a crack at this.
[Galaxy Tab General] seamonkey420:
yea, the default google one is pretty good. i plan to use it in my car w/my tab and the samsung car mount.

on a side note, using the car mount right now just on my glass desk. works pretty dang well too! :)
[Galaxy Tab General] knightnz:
That's pretty cool.

Looks like most of the images are intended for a 480x800 display, which is the resolution of the vibrant. You'd probably need to go through and scale a number of the images to fit the higher resolution screen of the tab. (Edit: Looks like the app is intelligent enough to scale this itself)

It's possibly a fair bit of work, but probably not all that hard. You mainly just need to extract it, work out what to edit, make the required changes, remove the META-INF tag and then manually resign and recreate the .apk. Not quite as straightforward as that (you'll need the Android SDK for a start). Might be a good exercise though.

I might have a play just for something to do. Maybe :)

Edit: Right, as with most things, _way_ more difficult than I estimated. I've decompiled the APK and I'm having a poke around in the sourcecode. I'll see how I go, but it's quite possible that I'll end up giving up and putting it in the "too hard" basket. Disclaimer: I'm completely unfamiliar with this sort of code so I'm having to decipher the syntax as I go. Editing just the graphics is a piece of cake, changing application calls and layout is a different story.
[Galaxy Tab General] knightnz:
I managed to get most of it sorted. The icons are now centered and the Contacts button works. The search button doesn't even seem to be _trying_ to do anything though, so I'm not sure what it's supposed to achieve. I might just get rid of it, a text-based search in a car dock app seems a bit redundant to me.

I don't get a "Voice Search" icon on mine, I get a "Browser" icon instead, so I'd be interested in seeing what happens on yours.

The .apk is a little larger than the original, probably as it's being compiled against a newer SDK.

I fixed the "Alarm" option not working with the Home dock application as well:

I do have a car home app that came with Roto's JME v4 but i still like the one from the Vibrant.

I am not a programmer so i would not know how to fix it.
[Galaxy Tab General] adinis78:
Great work on the Car Home, but i was wondering if you could make some changes: :-)

This what it looks like on my Vibrant, any way you can get to look this way?

and in regards to the Desk Home, the Alarm does not work i get an error message:

and one question on the Desk Home, on the weather icon next to the date and time shouldn't it show the current temperature? on both the Vibrant and Tab it just shows 00 C, not that important but it is weird that it does not update after you set the City and change the temperature to F on the Daily briefing icon.

Thank you again for your help.
[Galaxy Tab General] knightnz:
The apk on your vibrant must be different, the one I'm working on doesn't even have the images for "Phone" or "Music".

As for the alarm, I've no idea, it works fine here. I'm running the JME firmware which may have something to do with things.

The weather displays 00 if it doesn't have a net connection, it works fine as soon as it can access the server, but it looks like you've got data running. Can you put it on Wireless and see if it updates then?
[Galaxy Tab General] adinis78:
The Car Home from my Vibrant i got it via the market when it was available, the one currently on my tab i got it from the link on my first post so i could not tell you why they are different. Well i gave it a try, i'll keep it the way it is but it looks better than before and at least the contacts work. Thanks.

Regarding the alarm i am lost, i am running Roto's JME v4 so not sure if that has anything to do with it.

In regards to weather on the Desk Home i'll try and get better signal and i'll try wifi connection see if makes a difference and i'll report.

I have searched the Desire hd section for any Bluetooth problems, but seems that im the only one with a problem????!!!

My Bluetooth conectivty SUCKS with any headsets!

i have tried 4 diffrent headsets! and all "god" ones.

But i get the same result, as soon as i move i get lots of bad sound (Donw know how to explane, but like a Tv sound without a signal)

and i have to have the phone at a maximum of 5-10 cm so i can get a "good" listning sound.

The person who talkes with me have no problems.

I tested with 3 diffrent Nokia BT

one of them is bh-606

Jabra Bt as well.

I have the latest firmware. But lots of apps in my phone? can that cause a problem?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobCav:
Hey everyone, new member and my first post and I need help. I have a SGS I9000 and did the same thing as "michaelg117" did in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=890987

I installed OCLF and saw it needed to have a rooted phone. I installed z4Root temporary root and when I ran the OCLF lag fix it rebooted and I now have a phone that is frozen on the blank screen after the S animation.

I notice that while sitting at the blank screen I get one buzz followed by three buzzes. I assume that because of not being rooted it's the OCLF failing then being forced closed and then getting stuck in that loop.

I've been searching for any solution. The phone is only a few weeks old and I can recover my contacts from Outlook but I do have a few pics that will probably be lost if they're not already.

Is it possible to re-root the phone so she'll start "normally" with OCLF so I can then remove it and unroot back to normal? I've tried the Galaxy S OneClick Root for I9000 (by TGA Gunnman) but keep getting the following errors:

E:failed to open /mnt/internal_sd/update.zip (No such file or directory) error.

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

Does anyone think that being able to root would cure the problem? What other options are there for forcing a root in this condition?

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I have the same problem you had: z4root temporal + OCLF = Soft Brick.

It was my fault not to check that I had access to download/recovery mode using the three buttons. But fortunately, I had the debug mode enabled and can use adb to reach recovery mode...

BUT, I was advised in another thread _NOT_ to use factory reset in this situation because then I will lose the debug mode so if things go wrong I would not be able to reach download/recovery mode with adb again. They recommend use first a 3 button combo fix instead. This:

In this way, I would not depend on only debug mode for subsequent manipulation. What do you think?
