[G2 and Desire Z General] ssirus:
Hello All,

I had the OTA update to android 2.2.1 on my HTC Desire Z last week.

Since then my device has been slower and draining battery. To make matters worse I can't use visionary to get Temp root.

Now I was hoping that I could get back the original / previous Android version. Already tried a factory reset but it keeps this latest version. I did make a backup with Titanium Backup Pro a while back which I could put back via dropbox, however I suspect that this will only put back apps not the previous software version.

Anybody got any tips or am I just stuck with it?

Cheers!

S.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abhijit.Salunkhe:
Hi,

After restoring my original stock froyo from darky's v8 using ROM manager, I wanted to factory reset and clear cache... so tried starting phone in 2e recovery.

But to my surprise, when the phone booted following thing happend....

1) Samsung s screen appeared.

2) Some sound saying "Restore operation" ( Here 2e should have been displayed)

3) screen went black.

The Above three steps were being repeated again and again.

Was that normal ? As whatever I did after that ( remove battery, soft reset etc)., I could not get rid of the above. So I had to go into download mode and had to flash clean stock ROM ODIN

Anybody knows what was this "Restore Operation" sound about ? is this normal ?

Thanks,

Abhijit

Yesterday i imported all my sim contacts to phone because seems the only way i can customize(link with facebook, change photo, etc) but now when i press the "phone" button i can see my contacts 2 times, sim and phone which is annoying...even if i unchecked SIM contacts in "Peoples", so i guess "Phone" and "Peoples" are 2 different apps. Anyway my question is if there is any way to hide SIM contacts from contacts ?

btw using htc sense.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grimbola:
I'm suffering from this and a similar problem with the 'phone' menu in relation to facebook contacts.

I too like to keep a backup of my contacts on the sim (or preferably

only

on the sim), but when going through the 'phone' button on the home screen it shows them no matter what.

When I have a facebook account registered in my accounts and sync, whether its the Facebook app or the Facebook for HTC Sense account it'll sync all of my facebook friends over into my 'phone' list no matter what options I change - and believe me I've tried everything!

In an ideal world I would like to be able to have the 'phone' list only show the contacts from my sim (or copied to the phone and the sim contacts hidden) and only update the Facebook information (picture / status) for the people I have linked a facebook account for.

I'm really hoping that this is rectified in 2.3 as while it by no means makes the phone useless, it makes the 'phone' button - currently the largest button on my homescreen - not user friendly.

[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] sacredsoul:
Alright so i am downloading youtube videos thru an app in my Streak. And the format is either in .flv or .mp4. I tried a few video players like Rock Player etc. Some couldnt even play them. Rock Player was able to play it with huge lags and only in software encoding mode. Hardware encoding wont let me play the video.

So any advice guys? Which video players do you use?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] DMax99:
VitalPlayer
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] sacredsoul:
Tried VitalPlayer. It plays the videos for 1 secs and then go back to the main vitalplayer screen. Maybe the stock sdcard isnt fast enough...
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] rvbarton:
VitalPlayer is the best I've seen so far...
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] xilpaxim:
What app are you using to download the videos? It could be doing a really bad encode. I would imagine that the youtube player should be able to play those videos if nothing else. Have you tried going into the file manager then playing them with the youtube player?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] Taha25:

Mp4 films go straight into the gallery and the stock player is perfect, every single other player ive used goes out of sync or glitchy, i recommend a korean app, search the market for avi, and its a blue film reel, you cant understand the settings(unless you know.korean) but its perfect for divx, avi, flv, mkv, everything ive come across

The swipe is very intuitive. No need or further looking IMO.

I ran the one-click root and got it to work .. however whenever i try install a ROM i get and error that says "Signature Verification Failure".

The process i used was to copy downloaded ROM to the SD Card root and rename them to update.

Is there something else i should be doing in addition to or instead of what i've done? Thanks

Try it without renaming the file. I've seen this before and I fixed.it by taking.the. zip off cause my file was. Zip.zip. just select choose zip from SD card. Just a suggestion. Also if you start to get a couple different rom's on your phone all named update.zip how do you know what is what.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] konaman:
Sounds like your using the newest clockwork 3 and trying to flash a non cw3 compatible rom. If that's the case you need to run a root program that still has cw2 in it and it will change it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjree:
First off. You should be posting this in the QA section and not in the development section.

What it looks like doing is trying to flash a custom rom in clockwork using either "apply update from sdcard" or "apply /sdcard/update.zip." Neither will work with a custom rom because it requires a signature from Sprint or Samsung. What you need to do in recovery is "Install zip from SDcard" followed by "choose zip from sdcard" then select the zip you're try to flash.

Can someone please tell me what the correct page should be for the update to the stock dell at&t 2.2 version. The page that is programed as of now is:

it never boots. last night i let it sit over night. it finally lost power and rebooted but was still on 305. the white dell splash is what i was referring too.

so i run the update the phone reboots. up comes the dell splash and it sits. doesnt charge as it will eventually loose power and shut down.

if i do this and if it sits for 15 20 min and i pull the battery it will come back just like this morning to 305.
[Streak 5 General] ARHMogul:
Ok so making sure we are on the same wave lenght. You are running an AT&T locked Streak and updated via QDL Tool. Then you used the update link to do the OTA update to 318? Does this sound right?? If not, you are trying to use the OTA link to flash directly over a locked Streak and this will not work. It will cause the description you are describing. Please let me know what steps you have taken to get to this point.
[Streak 5 General] pen25:
you are correct. i have an att locked streak. used qdl to upgrade to 305. used the link to download the pkg and after it has downloaded it says it has to reboot. i let it reboot and that is where it hangs. i have tried this after a fresh flash using qdl and after a reset. to clear all data.

Hello everybody!

To make a long story even longer I just got LCD replaced on my Acer Liquid E by a technician and the cable that makes touch keys on the bottom responsive (4 of them - Home, Search, Go Back, Menu) got damaged and now they don't work at all. All other functions are OK including camera button and + and - volume. Is there any way to reassign "camera" or "volume" button to be used as "home" or "go back" button ? Or is there an app that would allow you to get by without using those touch keys below the screen? If there is something that can be done would you please explain in great details cause I'm so damn it's scary.

Thanks a lot guys!
[Liquid S100 General] A-c-e-r:
Not much help or advise from anybody to this point. But that is quite OK cause I happen to do some digging around and found solutions to my problems.One app is called Button Savior (Root). That's what the author says in the software description:

"Requires root

Requires USB Debugging enabled

If you are afraid of breaking your hardware keys or you have broken keys or you simply just don't have any key on your device, get Button Savior to make your life easier.

This app will display a floating software key panel which can be summoned everywhere anytime.

[Features]

(1) Simulates 'Home' 'Back' 'Search' 'Back' 'Recent Task' 'Screen Off'

(2) Can set to always open or auto hide based on user

customizable timer

(3) Two types of trigger action to choose from

(4) Added Camera key and Call key simulation

(5) Customizable trigger position"

Another one is called Soft Home for BarTender. And there are many more options available for similar problems.
[Liquid S100 General] gip_mad:
Hi, I had your same exact problem! I replaced the screen by myself, and soft buttons stopped working. Since i didn't damage the cable, I'm 97% sure that the problem is the adhesive used to replace the old one. You need a special adhesive that "conducts" capacity (see h t t p : // focus.ti.com/lit/an/slaa379/slaa379.pdf at page 16).

When i tried to open the device again to replace the adhesive, I ruined a flat cable so now I have damaged the upper part of the touchscreen too, so I'm actually hoping to get it repaired under warranty without saying a word about what happened.

Fingers crossed! :D
[Liquid S100 General] A-c-e-r:
I hope it worked for you my friend. Those Acers are nice phones till something goes wrong and you need to fix it. And Fido does not give a flying rat's ass if your phone is not on warranty. Their customer service just vanished over night the moment rogers took over. Very sad, it used to be awesome company to deal with. I got myself Galaxy S Captivate from AT&T, rooted and unlocked it and now using it on Fido.

[Liquid S100 General] DougTheModder:
Hello everybody!

I just bought a broken Acer S100, it had broken touchscreen (also the flat was broken) and there was no keypad. I mean, dismounting the phone, there was nothing related to the 4 buttons under the screen.

I just received the new new touchscreen, but still I don't have the keyboard. I read that dicer13 has bought the replacement flat, what I wanted to know is if the keypad is made only of 1 piece or if there are several pieces that are connected by the flat cable he bought.

IN few word, if I order the "50.H480W.005 Keypad cable" will I have everything to fix this phone or that's only a connecting flat between the mainboard and an other piece that goes just under the screen, which is missing?

On the other hand, will you suggest me to stop thinking about the phisical keypad and use, instead, the Buttun Saviour app? It is possible to use every normal function or the phone would be quite "limitated" and unconfortable to use?

Thank you very, very much for your answer! :)

Currently rocking a Vibrant with AOSPish 2.2 Froyo ROM made by Anderoid/Leaked_Dave. I've noticed talk about installing kernals XY and Z. I don't want to be attacked by the guys who seem to get offended when you ask a question. So I turn to you guys, here in the general section.
[General Questions and Answers] ArabianRATA:
The kernel is the computing layer that connects the phone's hardware and software/applications. It will handle all of the input and output. This is different from the shell, which handles user commands. Aftermarket kernels are usually tweaked to run more optimally than the factory one. For example, the Voodoo5 kernel on my samsung showcase improved the I/O implementation on my device. It bumped my overall quadrant score from 800 to 1,800.

I hope this helps! It's sort of a generalization. Cheers mate!

Hey guys,

So I flashed the prerooted 024 firmware and the SIN files, all went smooth. Then I flashed the Eminence 1.6 resource mods, all smooth. I don't really like the default font of Eminence 1.6 so I went ahead and installed Typefresh and attempted changing the default fonts to the Sony Sketch font - and it isn't working.

Typefresh shows the 'fonts applied - reboot now' message, but post reboot the fonts remain the same as the default one with Eminence 1.6. I tried doing that multiple times with Typefresh and the font still doesn't change post reboot despite the 'fonts applied' message.

I also tried Font Changer Lite from the market - same issue - it confirms fonts are applied but no change post reboot.

Am I missing something here? :confused:

Hi guys..today I saw very exciting video looks like below.

Some people say that it is ios, but others think it is a another theme.

They say it is miui rom (refer http://www.miui.com)

miui rom is chinease rom until now(they don't have any plan to other language),

so I don't understand it.

However, when I see the video, it is very fast and has good function like ios

whether it is ios or not.

So, I want to know is it possible to install ios to htc vogue?

If it is possible, I really hope to see it. But, although it is not possible, is it

possible to execute same function ( moving and deleting icon like ios : shaking ^^)?

If someone know this, please let me know it.

Thanks and sorry for my poor english.:D

Nope!

Android can only be ported to the vogue, because it is opensource and Ios is a lot of things but NOT opensource. We would have seen a port of WebOS even sooner, because it is also linux based than Ios, but WebOS also isn't opensource so....
