I have tried running the fix_permissions script. Didn't seem to work. Unless there's another method you are referring to. I am unable to launch ROM Manager and it seems like all of my apps are 'new' and never launched before from what they show. Including my alarm settings, those are missing too.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigman:
Think I'd restore a backup taken prior to all the font changes. You did make a backup, didn't you?

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppd0526:
I do have a backup but unfortunately its a little bit old and I would rather fix this if possible. It feels like some folder is missing permissions. Because even stock Google talk crashes and market crashes when I try to view an app but I can search around if I want.

Another route I can go is to backup my data for apps and then install a new Rom as I have been wanting to. This would allow me to fix my problems but I need to know what folders I have to manually backup for saves.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppd0526:
Well some good news. After messing around with permissions on some files on the sdcard I was able to restore my notification sound back and also able to make GTalk work properly. So it looks like there is hope yet.

Where do apps store settings such as configuration, db, etc?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppd0526:
It looks as if my data/data partition is wiped? I'm not sure what happened but I guess that means all my app saves are gone.

Am I right to assume that?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppd0526:
I used this application NotEnoughSpace made by a xda member and using it to symlink some of my apps from data partition to a new area on emmc seems to work. However when I try to restore back to my data partition, it doesn't work.

So this leads me to believe that the permissions on my data partition are off and I need to change the permissions, owner, and group for the data partition and all files inside it. The command would be:

chmod 664 data/*
chown root:root data/*

And run this while outside of the main data folder. As long as the right owner/group is root:root.

Can someone confirm?
[Galaxy Tab General] noWingsjustHorns:
First I want to say this site has a lot of talent on it and you guys should really be proud of what you accomplish and the benefits others get from them.

I started with a Sprint Galaxy Tab purchased day one from a local best buy. I recently bricked it by not following the directions to a T. All devices from Samsung, well at least my vibrant and this Tab have a factory warranty of a year from Samsung. I have used it for two vib replacements and then this Tablet which I replaced today. Basically below is the information I received from SPRINT moments ago over the phone to activate my device. My situation is unique because I have active service, but not on this tab so upon turning it on the activation process was different then initially on day 1 and I also rooted it with Super One Click prior to trying to activate it. The Sprint CS had me do this and what it caused was the device to initiate the entire data network configuration process all over but in a different fashion. MAYBE this is all already known or maybe this can give insight, see below::

Opened into the Memo app from the home screen or your app drawer

In the Search memos bar type Sym##488798# ----> brings you into a service menu and TerminalMode is stated in the toolbar and TouchHere at the bottom of the menu screen.

TerminalMode

Service Menu

View *

Edit

Done

[ Touch Here ]

For this case View was chosen and it had the asterisks beside it {see above}, but if you select Edit which was done after hanging up with the Sprint CS your device phone number displays.

In View the digits {sorry} pressed where

510684492? I think 3 but there is only 10 possibilities. I think 3 maybe 4, sorry guys I got distracted and don't want to mislead anyone but the first 9 are spot on.

Let me know if there is any worth in this and/or anymore info I can supply. Strangest part was that during a reboot the Sprint CS asked me "Do these things make phone calls?" I'm thinking your the Sprint CS and you know that it doesn't or isn't suppose to. Why ask me now.... What info may you just have given me. Have Fun!!
[Galaxy Tab General] maxjivi05:
a lot of reps are retarded and just follow a guide on how to do stuff, I work for AT&T I can't tell you how many times people call in and say they been transfered around 10 times because no one can fix a simple problem like "device unlock" etc, but anyway I have a Sprint Tab and I typed that in my memo search nothing change... maybe I'm doing something wrong? I was just curious to look around! lol
[Galaxy Tab General] IP IHI II IL:
I'm not sure what this is supposed to accomplish, but I'm dying to play with the guts of my tab, and since there are no ROMS out there, thought I'd give it a shot... Nothin' doin'. I'd love to know more!

Got a Sprint SPH-P100.
[Galaxy Tab General] bmxrider4444:
All sprint device's that connect to the network and have any sort of plan have a phone number, including aircards and the tab, now just because it has a number does not mean it is provisioned on the network to make calls, but if someone could maybe add a phone apk to their rom to test it, you may be able to make calls, but there also may news to be some kernel adjustments or other changes for it to work but you could always try.

Sent from my CM7 EVO.
[Galaxy Tab General] LargePrime:
The Sph-p100 (sprint tab) will not make calls (CDMA calls. Voip is fine) on the sprint network as it is filtered by imei.

If you change the imei to, say, one for a SGS, it works fine.

Also it would need a different type of service plan than just data.
[Galaxy Tab General] maxjivi05:
What!!! I can change the imei to a evo and get 69.99 unlimited everything??? Its retarded to limit these just because its a tab
[Galaxy Tab General] markgamber:
There's an activation for the Verizon Tab that causes the tablet to make a voice call for whatever reason. During that time I can hear the call progress via the speakers and a green phone indicator lights up in the status bar. Given that, I figure it's entirely possible for the Verizon Tab to make voice calls. Is there no such process for the Sprint Tab?
[Galaxy Tab General] LargePrime:
There is no such process for Sprint. But those switching Sprint or Verizon tabs to metroPCS have no problem making calls.
[Galaxy Tab General] maxjivi05:
How hard is it to switch to metroPCs and what's their network speeds like
[Galaxy Tab General] LargePrime:
Call and ask. Metro is very local so it depends. Check craigslist or howardsforums.

You got a contract?

Metro is not the cheapest way.
[Galaxy Tab General] bmxrider4444:
Just for future reference changing your ESN, IMEI and what have you is illegal and highly frowned upon by XDA, and is best not discussed as quite a few threads have been closed because of it.

Now on a lighter note, yes the Verizon Tab does make an initial call to activate itself but that is just their way of OTA programming the device, where as Sprint does the same thing, just without an actual voice call it uses a more discrete and software based method.

So in conclusion I can't definitively rule out being able to make calls with then over CDMA but I do know that both carriers have a lot of authentications that the device makes to do anything that will most likely reject your attempt based on your ESN and the whitelist/blacklist your ESN is tied to.
[Galaxy Tab General] surferpr:
The ## number you pressed is your msl it is unique for every device on the network. It worked for you and will not work for others for this reason. You can however call sprint and ask them for this number, I myself have called and asked for mine for almost all of my devices. It all depends on how and who you ask. However please note that in here you have total control over the settings and can really do some damage if you don't know what you are doing so be careful.
[Galaxy Tab General] LargePrime:
It is not Illegal. IF XDA is frowning on it no one has ever mentioned it to me. Furthermore I apologize in advance.

As I posted in another thread, it is not illegal.

1) Legally named 'PCS' (Remember SprintPCS and MetroPCS) commonly called CDMA devices have NEVER been regulated as to changing ESN's. Only GSM (SIM) devices have. And ESN modification of such devices was repealed in 2003.

Relevant sections are Title 47 CFR 22.919. This WAS the section that held the language about ESN Changing. It has been repealed. (page 6 (p.77180) left column bottom.) Note that it is in Part 22. Part 22 only regulates GSM devices. But PCS devices are Title 47 CFR 24

Readers may Go HERE and select Title 47. Then the two sections as they wish.

The case is too bulky/ugly - got the good old original sleeve on mine, meh on the SD card, and personally prefer other NAND builds - ultimate is a bit silly really........all HD2 are smoking!
[HD2 General] Hahutzy:
Here's the key question: is your HD2 liquid-cooled?
[HD2 General] CyberClaw:
Ultimate is very relative...

But before worrying about the SD Card size (external memory), the protective shell, or the NAND (Gingerbread brought me more bugs than Froyo, but that's besides the point - everyone here can access all the same NANDs), the "Ultimate HD2" would first need to be a 1024 Megs TMous HD2 instead of the 512 Megs one, and have the fugly but useful official HTC extended battery, both features which are individually much more useful than all the 3 features you listed put together... But that's just my two cents...

EDIT: Noticed you have a 1024Leo in another thread BTW, but my point still stands on the mentioned features :)

what do you think is then the best case ever for our HD2 !! sleekest n sexiest ??:D

Hi there,

I'm looking for the Swype keyboard for the HTC Legend. I'm currently running a Froyo Rom. I tried one from this website, which didn't work so well, I don't know if it was me or the application because when I opened it, it told me that my trial period expired and that I should upgrade my Swype keyboard application. When I tried using Swype, it would show the line going across but it just wouldn't do anything when I go through the letters, I can only tap on the letters, which would be useless because I would just go back to the normal input method. Any tips? Ideas? Or links to a good Swype Keyboard? The one I tried using but didn't work was:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=660206

Thanks for the help. :)
[Legend General] nxdu:
I have that problem as well ever since the latest version of Swype and after I upgraded to Froyo. Not sure whose fault is it. I switched to Gingerbread keyboard since.
[Legend General] frullewulle:
try this rar with version 1.6 swype apk file in it

EDIT: as asked by MOD
[Legend General] ozazi:
you can try to register on swype beta site, and get a newer version of swype. i'm using it, and it work like a charm. :D
[Legend General] cdfs:
I'mm using Swype since about 3 month. I registered to the beta-program, a friend of mine registered last week and got his version about an hour later. I'm using cyanogenmod 6.1 (Froyo) and swype works like a charm. I also tried cynogenmod 7 (Gingerbread), but there swype closes always.
[Legend General] TheGrammarFreak:
Get rid of d/l links, or a MOD will. I won't report it, I'm just warning you. On XDA this is seen as warez, and Swype has asked that all download links are removed from here, and all other forums. This sucks, I know. Apply to beta test and hope.

Sorry guys :o
[Legend General] nolook:
im on the official swype beta and running froyo...seems like everytime i reboot my phone i have to re-install swype? anyone else have this annoying problem?
[Legend General] alienyd:
Off to Gingerbread

I'm sorry if this is a little off topic, but can anyone please send me a working apk of the Gingerbread keyboard?

I'm on Blayo's ROM, 0.5. I've been trying the app in the market with no success. The app keeps getting FC as soon as I touch the keyboard.

Thank you very much!
[Legend General] frullewulle:
I think that is the case if you install swype on sd.

Try to move the app to your phone.
[Legend General] nxdu:
I was using the official beta when the problem started. lol
[Legend General] nolook:
i do have it installed to my internal memory
[Legend General] zooom81:
I am having the same problem, but I'm using data2ext on balyo's b05 rom.I solve this problem by switching input method to touch input and then back to swype.swype is back to normal.
[Legend General] bwilliams1:
I am using swype on my legend, every reboot you need to long press in a text box and select the android keyboard, then doit again and select swipe, its a known bug. From what i understand it is a problem with timing. Hope this helps.
[Legend General] cdfs:
I was using Swype on Froyo (CyanogenMOD 6.1) without problems. With Gingerbread (CyanogenMOD 7 experimental builds) I had some trouble, as the Swype-keyboard disapeared immediately. After uninstalling Swype and reinstalling it via Swype-Installer everything works again as it should.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kdwolf85:
When you flash a rom that is not made 100% for your device what happens sometimes is your product ID gets changed in the process. KIES will try to read this and your build.prop to determine if there is an update available for your device. The US Galaxy S devices are not supported by the full KIES program. We are forced to use KIES mini to do our updates. Because you flashed an AT&T based ROM your version of KIES is seeing your phone as a US version. There is a Odin flashable version of the 2.2 Rogers in the development forum.

Download this file and follow the instructions included in it to flash your phone back to stock.

The basics of it are putting the dload folder on the root of your sdcard and then put the phone into the recovery mode, hold end call+ vol up and then tap the power button

http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwi...3&attachmentName=M860V100R001C153B251SP03.zip

Once you get your phone back working, make sure to flash the Amon-RA and make a full backup of your phone before you start theming and customizing.

Hey blackthought, I wondering if you can help me.... I think I've bricked my huawei ascend. I was trying to install a cm7 rom and when it rebooted, it booted pass the huawei logo to the ascend android logo. I waited about 10hrs and nothing happen. after that i booted into recovery and my phone slipped out of my hand and my guess is that i formatted the sdcard. since that happen it stays on the huawei flash logo.i can no longer perform a restore, all data on the sdcard has been wiped. when i mounted sdcard from the recovery and tried to open the file from the pc side, I was not allowed. Long story short, I need your help dude.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Scur827:
Did you get this figured out? Because you can't brick the Ascend. The only thing I've ever heard of is the purple/pink screen that only a few have recovered from. When it locks up like it did on you, it's usually due to trying to flash an overclock kernel that's too high for that type of Ascend. There are lazy Ascends that can't go past 710 or so. As long as you can still boot into CWM by holding down the volume up and call button (left most) then pressing power and holding them in until you see the CWM screen, you're ok to flash whatever.

The correct information for putting your phone back to stock is here can be found at Unleashed Prepaids forum, which includes the link to the stock rom.
