[Optimus One, P500, V General] morx:
One quick question guys.... just got my P500 from LG Service back.

Without SIM and the phone shutted down, when i plug the charger, it turns on and goes loading the Android OS right on home screen! If i had a SIM on, then it asks for a PIN.

Is this normal? I dont think that was happening before. Anyone has this situation on his phone? As far as i remember when it was brand new and before getting it for service, it was just showing up the LG Battery meter when charging and being closed.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dongimin2:
not an appropriate place is it??

Ur SIM is locked so it asks ur pin every time u use it (i.e. boot phone)

Go under settings to disable the pin, or go to consumer service of ur provider (not LG)

My phone barely lasts 12 hrs on CM7 ! I know its beta but i never got such high battery backup on stock too . :eek: I use wifi all the time with many apps running in background , i think this leads to such low backup ! :(
[Optimus One, P500, V General] becosemsaida:
Come on guys, what's the point of this???

Ok i have a p500 and i bought it for usage not for "killing" main features or let it sit in the box waiting.......

My setup is this: NO root (yet!!!), all definitions active by default, screen brightness at 25%, wi-fi when i'm home so always "online" no overclock just the apps installed i need on a daily basis.

Still my device lasts about 3 days with usage: phone calls (1h a day), sms (20-50) and updates every 6 hours (feed and weather) and when i'm home i browse the market and try some apps (not every day).

I also have a gps app installed and if i use it the device lasts about a day so here is the real test for the p500 and not trying to make it work like a nokia 3310!!!!

Overclocked to 730MHz. Running void #echo.

Regular music (1 - 1.5hr)

No messaging, calls (Sad. No socializing for me)

Wifi on for around 0.5hrs.

Brightness 12%

I always thought a black background would consume least energy. Because that way you wouldn't have to activate the pixel :P Not right?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] androidism:
Unusually low. Check which app is consuming so much battery.

-gaming=~0.5h/day

-brightness=~15 % or something like that :D

I was wondering if there's a way to get rid of the notification/message preview that shows up at the bottom of the lockscreen. I don't mind the LED flashing or the titlebar notifications, just the one on the bottom of the lockscreen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSilverStig:
You can remove that by disabling notifications in messaging. This will get rid of that but that will keep you unaware of when you get a text. I use an app called SMSPopup that I like much better than standard notifications.

[Desire Themes and Apps] celticchrys:
This is my first experiment in making a bootanimation, so be gentle, please!

It is 480x800 WVGA resolution and works on my CDMA HTC Desire with Cyanogen Mod Eclair.

It's only been tested on my CDMA Desire because that's the only model I have access to right now.

Root Explorer is my favoured method for installing.

This bootscreen shows a small Imp type fairytale creature(from a 19th century book of fairy tales) running across the screen.

I'm planning to update this, including cleaning it up a bit more and adding a background perhaps.

If you try it, I'd appreciate suggestions, although I can make no promises.

You can download the file here.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmanjj:
When I load the bootloader with power and volume up and select recover it gives me the triangle picture with an exclamation mark in the middle. I am unlocked and rooted. I installed clockwork and can get to it from rom manager but not through recovery option. Help please!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
i think this is covered in the FAQ, and it's definitely discussed in several threads already.

The triangle is the stock recovery. If you've updated to 2.3.1, the stock recovery is restored by a startup script every time you boot the phone. You can disable this by renaming the file /etc/install-recovery.sh. Then install clockwork again.

If you want to stay on stock recovery, to get into recovery, you do the vol up and power button, then from fastboot select recovery. Watch the screen closely when the phone reboots...for a second or two you'll see a box pouring an arrow onto an android. During that screen push power first (hold it) then push volume up. Timing is important.

WoohooX2 Jeepin! sounds like good news for you! I've had good experiences with AT&T too regarding Tilt 2 replacments, etc. The last one I got worked great but now is on life support. It died on me a few days ago and i hve no idea what brought it back. I am trying to wait till AT&T roll out their Q1 phones (why do att not like phones with full keyboards?) and want to stay with Windows MObile, but looks like i will have to go Android (dont like windows 7) and hope to get a phone with similar features as the Tilt 2. This was my buddy, i hate to see it die.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ztmike:
Why did you label this as a "RC" when there is not even a nightly posted yet of CM7?
[G2 and Desire Z General] dictionary:
You forgot that for fastboot, they'll need a ENG bootloader, or it'll fail. Otherwise, pretty good write up. ;)
[G2 and Desire Z General] shadowofzeus:
That's why I mentioned that they need to be fully rooted, but I will change it to mention the ENG bootloader and point them to the tread about root and installing the bootloader.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shadowofzeus:
Because that is how its been labeled. As RC0 meaning that its not even a release candidate yet.
[G2 and Desire Z General] PabloCafe:
Fyi...

RC = Release Candidate
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
This.

"RC0" makes it sound like a release candidate. It isn't.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ludow:
HTC Roms are real PITA for me. I would like to try one custom rom before my Desire Z changes owner.

You guys are super technical and noob like me can't find step by step directions for one single rom.

I have no problems flashing my SGS. I bet I wrote wrong place again. :o
[G2 and Desire Z General] KoolKidsKlub:
How safe is flashing the ENG HBOOT? I want to flash it to my phone when I root it but I'm sorta scared, I"m pretty comfortable with rooting it, but if you screw up on the ENG HBOOT, you will have an unrecoverable brick. I'm no noob to cell phone modding, I used to mod Motorola's back in the day before Android and I have the new 14 RAM HBOOT and Radio on my G1. Is flashing the ENG HBOOT safe?

EDIT: Oh and I wouldn't link or tell people to root with the VISIONary method, that method is "fake" and EXTREMELY unsafe, I would link them to the tutorial in the Wiki, I haven't seen a single person brick with that method yet, and other people say the same(from what I hear at least.)
[G2 and Desire Z General] raitchison:
I think the main risk with the ENG hboot is that if you make a mistake with the command that does the actual flashing:

You can indeed brick your phone.

I have not changed my hboot for this reason and because there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of benefit for me to it. Having it _does_ give you a little additional recourse in case both your recovery and your ROM get screwed up though so it may well be worth it if you are running experimental recovery (as CWM 3.x is right now) and a highly experimental ROM (as CM7 is right now).
[G2 and Desire Z General] raitchison:
I think to a lot of people (myself included) seeing the letters "RC" does indeed indicate that it's a release candidate. I got all excited when I saw your thread in the topic list.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
On the flashing eng hboot thing, I agree with raitchison. All of the stuff to do with rooting/S-OFF etc has a certain degree of risk, it's not 100% "safe". But if you carefully read up on everything in advance, and then carefully carry out the necessary procedures, you will have to be pretty unlucky to end up bricked.

Specifically with the eng hboot, when you have copied the file to your phone, before dd'ing it you should run a checksum on it for safety's sake, to make sure you have downloaded and copied a valid file and not a corrupt one. The checksums are in the Wiki.

As long as you do this and are then very careful in typing that instruction to do the "dd" itself (copy and paste can help reduce the possibility for error), then the only thing that could go wrong really is your phone losing power or crashing right in the middle of the dd. I think you'd have to be extremely unlucky for that latter possibilities to happen.
[G2 and Desire Z General] KoolKidsKlub:
Ah alright, I feel more comfortable flashing the ENG HBOOT now, I guess I'll go ahead and flash it after I've rooted it, thank you.
[G2 and Desire Z General] GuestK00102:
When I try to flash the recovery it says the syntax of the command is incorrect.

No I am not putting in the quotes, I even copied and pasted it and put the name of the recovery in there, I keep getting the same error. What to do?
[G2 and Desire Z General] shadowofzeus:
Can you press ctrl alt print scrn on your keyboard and upload the picture of your command prompt please and let me look at it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] GuestK00102:
Now it's saying this
[G2 and Desire Z General] shadowofzeus:
alright type it just like this

fastboot flash recovery rec.img
[G2 and Desire Z General] GuestK00102:
TY :)

Why did you remove the <>, should I do that for the rest of the commands?

Something to do with win 7?

In CWM Recovery I'm getting a bunch of errors.

E: failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

etc etc and it continues. What'd I do wrong?
[G2 and Desire Z General] shadowofzeus:
I put those in there as place holders. Your files names replace those.

Don't worry about that stuff. It will say that because you just erased those partitions.

[General Questions and Answers] rmbean:
Hi there everybody!

I've been struggling to try porting android for a new phone but can't event pass the first step.

I've a so called TMN Bluebelt ( ZTE Xiang ), equipped with a Qualcomm MSM7225 processor running Windows Mobile 6.1.

I've been searching on this matter here and in other places and decided to start it.

Downloaded some haret versions and tried a couple of configurations but no luck.

I found that MSM7225 needs a special patch for haret to work successfully and found that same compiled version. Tried everything but all output i get from haret in my phone is :

I found another post saying that this processor can have some problems turning mmu on/off so i decided to investigate further down. I downloaded CeGCC 0.59 and tried compiling haret from git repo.

Now the problem is, when i try to run my compiled version of haret i get

"haret.exe is not a Pocket PC valid application". I'm completely lost. I've experience dealing with linux/windows OS's but not Windows Mobile, so i don't know what to do next.

Any kind soul with good ideas regarding this?

Help would be appreciated.
[General Questions and Answers] rmbean:
Well it seems like nobody here knows how to deal with this.

It's a shame, because I don't either :p

I've been goggling on this matter yet and i found some clues on what can be the problem.

Newer versions of mingw32ce are using a library called libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll and others to split the code and produce smaller binaries.

I stumbled on one thread (can't place the link) and checked this application, the Dependency Walker (can't place the link). It seems that my binary is using that dynamically linked libgcc version whereas the "officially" compiled versions don't. I guess the error i'm getting about my binary being an invalid "Pocket PC App" is connected with this. Maybe i'll need to compile it too. I tried to find this library's source code but no luck. Can't seem to find it in the cegcc project cvs.

Meanwhile I installed a vm with Virtual Studio and eVC++ 4 and tried to compile haret with the .vcp project that is in the source folder. One more time i got a problem converting the vcp to the newer VS format. It seems that bakefile, the utility used to produce the eVC related files generates incompatible configuration strings with VS converter.

(can't place the link)

The same way, I'm unable to open the project with eVC++ 4, and I can't trace the error.

Now I'm giving up on this for some time. I'll wait for someone to help me or, at least, until Handhelds come up with their page again (it seems they're in undergoing renovations of it for months. I hope this time, 1st week of March, will be definitive).

If you truly want the w7 feel you should use desktop Visualizer I think... go to the themes section they have a guide on how to theme your android to something VERY similar... as far as actually porting a rom... think that's prolly a little too much coding and work considering if someone wanted it that bad they likely would have just bought it as such...

But I guess the only thing keeping the from releasing another nexus would be Google. Unless Google felt the need to have a larger format dev phone like 4.3" screen, bring back HD video recording and possibly add a dual core processor.

I'm sorry, but anyone who buys a Samsung-supported phone at this point deserves what they will inevitably get.

The Behold II and Galaxy S fiascos should be ample warning: Samsung will NOT support the software on a phone it releases in the USA. The Vibrant 4G will release with Froyo, and will reach end-of-life with Froyo, except for custom ROMS.
[Nexus S General] tks989:

Is it really Samsung, or is it Tmobile that delays the updates; or a combination of both?
[Nexus S General] ap3604:
I like the fact that the new Vibrant Plus has a 1650mAH battery and 4g :eek:

This is why you ALWAYS buy phones with the idea that it will be left for dead by the manufacturer as soon as you buy it (unless of course you have a Nexus ;))

Couldn't imagine how crappy old Vibrant owners who signed 2-year contracts must feel since most people imagine they will have their phone be relevant for at least a year but it's already a "dinosaur" in their eyes in a little less than 6 months :(
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
A year is a VERY long time in the smartphone ecosystem, unless you're in a closed system like the iPhone with only yourself to compete with.

I've resigned myself to a new phone every 6 months for as long as I feel compelled to have the "latest, greatest" device.

A lot of Vibrant owners pissed off because of this, but I'm not going to fault Samsung for releasing what's a pretty major upgrade (true HSPA+ and FFC) 6-10 months after the SGS line came out.

Adding SAMOLED Plus would have made it less upsetting to most, I suspect.

I won't give Sammy a pass on the lack of Froyo progress on US model Galaxy S phones, though. They obviously have it (i9000 does, as does this); but is it possible their carrier partners are the problem here?

Seriously?

C'mon, the Vibrant is still "relevant" and anything but a "dinosaur". It's still got one of the best screen technologies out there, a damn good GPU and CPU, 16gb internal and external sd cards, supports 7.2Mbs. Most non-XDA-member types will still love that phone for quite some time to come.
[Nexus S General] splat matt:
My point in all of this was Samsung denied that they were making a nexus 2 phone up until two weeks before release and dropped that they are making the nexus s; very clever.

Just like there were early rumors of vibrant plus and those were dismissed then at the end of CES it is announced.

So there have been rumors of a nexus s2 and I guess those have been dismissed as well unless they are are going to drop 2 weeks before google's release of "ice cream" a nexus s "plus". Speculative, I know but it fits the MO of Samsung and Google - short ly (apx 6mos.) after the mytouch was made into a dev phone the nexus one was announced with android 2.2. Maybe with the rapid rise of dual core phones and larger screens; google and samsung will want a dev phone this summer that will provide these options (dual core and larger screen) for devs to design HQ games and apps on. Because lets face it Apple iOS is one up on android because the quality games and that is it. Sony is releasing this year a PSP android gaming phone so I can only imagine google wanting their dev phones to start computing in that area as well.

G1 dev phone released Dec 2008

Mytouch "magic" ion dev released phone Aug 2009

(6 months span)

Nexus One dev phone released Jan 2010

Nexus S dev phone released Dec 2010

( ~ 6 months span)

Nexus S "plus" maybe in June/July 2011? marketing wise would take some steam out of apple's typical iphone release date.

Can't deny that there is some indicators of a possible marketing pattern.
