[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brainwreck:
So I am on CM 6.1, and I'm trying to flash Amon_RA or the latest version of CWM. I updated rommanager through the market.

THe issue is that the phone only boots into CW 2.5.0.1...even though when i run rommanager it says Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 2.6.0.1. If I try to flash RA as the alternate recovery, it says Current Recovery: RA Recovery v2.2.2....But when i reboot into recovery sure enough, its still CW 2.5.0.1.

Hopefully that makes sense. Thank you in advance.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:

Honestly I dont think you really grt the.full experience of how to properly use your phone using Rom Manager. Flashing Amin is just that eady and all directions is within the thread

Hello

I want to create an STL or Sim application toolkit, which will create a menu in SIM card and you can set to send USSD data when a menu created. I tried everything on google, nothing works.

I have Smart Card reader, I have empty/blank SIM cards, I have working SIM cards and even if needed I can send Operator SMS.

But how? There is NO ANY document in internet (at least I was not able to find).

Please help me about it, thanks.

There are always a lot of running apps which waste a lot of ram and power..

This is significantly reducing battery life and overall performance..

Using task killer has no effect as those apps automaticaly start running again :(

Please suggest a remedie
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bioan:
Sorry to tell you, but you have to inform yourself about how Android OS works.

1. You don't need task killers - they are useless !

2. Apps are stored in RAM so that they can be relaunched faster.

3. Apps stored in RAM do not drain battery. Only active apps drain battery.

4. Check wikipedia for further info.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] prateeks:
Thanx for dispeling my myth..

Can u also give me some suggestions 4 increasing battery life..

And also can u tell me an app that will tell me hw much battery is being consumed by each app or process on my phone?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bioan:
For battery increasing try disabling 3G/Wi-fi/Bluetooth/GPS when not used. Put screen brightness at about 60%. I only do this and I always manage 2 days with moderate to intensive usage.

Download Spare Parts from Market. You can see there everything you want regarding to battery.

I'm slightly new to the whole rooting scene but I've been doing some embedded development for android on an OMAP development board.

I have a question, I hope i'm in the right section..

How do I give applications root access? I already have busybox and su (usb debugging enabled too) but what do I need to get applications that require root to actually work?? i'm trying to get SWKeys to run but it keeps complaining about root access. What's the manual process without flashing superuser etc.

If adb is timing out then you have the incorrect adb driver installed or that USB port won't work for it. I would try other USB ports first then try the driver install again.

Ok so, I'm looking to change my Google account, right after a full wipe and everything. But i want to keep all my apps and their data. So my question is...what do I need to select in Titanium to do this? I tried not restoring system data, but that didn't work. So i guess I'm wondering if there's some way I can still get most of my stuff back without getting the Google account settings back.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roscoenr:
You go into titanium backup press menu/batch then pick the second option backup all user apps.

After you are backup after your wipe open titanium backup press menu/batch then pick the 9th option, restore missing apps with data then you should be good to go

Never heard of something that can do that to your phone, except hardware flaw. If you are in warranty unroot, flash RUU and send it to repair. That's the only thing I can propose.
[Milestone 2 General] flibbulator:
I'm running the GB sbf and overclocked at 1250MHz/62 vsel. One particular game is Fruit Ninja by Halfbrick and the number of swipes and lags makes the game pretty much unplayable.

I have tried it on a clean boot and the same performance issues exist (it was the same before they released multi-touch support in the game as well). Has anyone else found similar problems?
[Milestone 2 General] flibbulator:
Ok, I tried two other games Raging Thunder 2 and Hyper Jump. Raging Thunder 2 simply switched the phone off after about 20 seconds (tried three times same outcome). Hyper Jump was also unreliable so I unrooted and removed the overclocking and the games have become more stable but not bulletproof and all seem to suffer intermittent lags. Does anyone think this is simply a hardware issue or another added advantage of motoblur?
[Milestone 2 General] oTToToTenTanz:
Nice one :D

This is what I experienced so far. Downloaded Fruit Ninja few days before it got multi touch. Found it really laggy and wanted to give it back but was too late for a refund. Then I updated my version when multi touch came along. It was better but not really smooth.

Once I disconnected my internet connection it once again became smoother but not as it is on iPhone/iPod Touch. But now it is absolutely playable and I'm getting very good at it.

I have the German Version, unrooted and not overclocked. Of course, I swear that Motoblur makes it lag as well.

What I recommend to do:

1-disconnect internet and try

2-back to stock, maybe downclock cpu and try

3-if not yet, update Fruit Ninja

4-Try to disable Motoblur with TitaniumBackup. There is a thread floating around here in the forums.

Keep us updated with any progress =)

Regarding other games I don't know.
[Milestone 2 General] cobo_:
I don't have my Milestone 2 yet, but from what I've read re MotoBlur it is a complete POS, and I would probably lean towards that causing lag on the phone as reports from people who have removed MotoBlur say the phone is now incredibly fast and responsive.

No problems for me playing fruit ninja and Raging Thunder 2, on my M2 @ 1,2Ghz with UK sbf and all motoblur services and home kicked off with Titanium backup
[Milestone 2 General] flibbulator:
It seems this is the way to go, I'll give it a go at some stage but it isn't critical as I use a Nokia N900 as my daily. Would love to have Maemo5 with Milestone hardware :)
[Milestone 2 General] flibbulator:
I managed to remove the packages as Shellite recommends in this thread and performance is now outstanding.

The method isn't optimal from an aesthetic point of view but it does do exactly as intended. Just be aware that if you remove things like the blur widgets you still get the option to add them to your desktop but when selected they don't do anything.

Another thing I noticed in contacts and other areas where linking to social networking features all goes a little pear shaped if you have removed those services.

Anyway, it works well but until a nice clean rom is available the M2 won't be replacing my N900 anytime soon :)

Hi,

I am currently an owner of a Galaxy S which is brilliant, largely due to array of custom roms being created for it.

Can I ask what peoples opinon is on whether the 101 (and other gen8) will see the introduction of custom firmware. At the moment, there seems to be UrukDroid, however this looks less polished (no offence to the dev) compared to the firmware found on the Galaxy. I guess my main reason for asking is due to devs eventually being able to resolve some of the issues being found on the 101 (assuming Archos don't sort it out)

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] doctorwhobbc:
First off i live in New Zealand and i imported the captivate because i preferred it over the standard galaxy s phone we have over here.

Since i received it however i have noticed a few software issues which i am needing help with or wondering if theres a stock GT-i9000 rom?

The issues are as follows:

No Swype keyboard, came with 'Chinese keyboard'. i have sinced installed a keyboard form the marketplace

No Accelerometr/gyro. When trying to access game or apps that require it they say it cannot be detected. furthurmore i cannot put the phone into landscape mode when sending an SMS for example to flip the keyboard

The ambient light sensor and the proximity sensor are same as above, they either do not work or arent detected

The phone cannot connect to Kies or any computer in general. It worked once where i could access the external SD card through my computer, but when trying to get it to connect to any computer simply nothing happens, even when windows says its succesfully installed drivers it cannot find it.

As you can see thats alot of issues. It also crashes when i try to access 'mobile AP' in the settings menu. The phone came rooted without any samsung apps, widgets, wallpapers or anything else that it should have. There is also a app called 'superuser permission' which i believe is related to it being rooted?

So what i'm thinking the most logical choice is to somehow install android again, but with a fully functioning OS (e.g. accelerometer, swype etc). im not looking for anything fancy, preferably just stock andorid 2.1.

Since i cannot properly connect to a computer how would i backup all my data on it? And since its being used in New zealand, not america (its been unlocked) will doing this unlock it?

im sort of a noob at all this and haven't had any help from anyone yet.

P.S sorry if ive got spelling mistakes and what not, i wrote this in a rush before bed :P

Thanks,

Doctorwhobbc

My friend has an intercept and I installed a rooted kernel for him then installed slapstick v1.1 I believe using the swupdate method. Phone worked fined and moves a hell of a lot faster now. All went well (besides some com.android.input.latin crap that I found a fix for) but he no longer gets data. He noticed that when he opens some horoscope app that his internet begins to work again but is incredibly slow. Google page takes about 3 minutes to load. If anyone has heard of this issue before please direct to some info on it. It would be much appreciated.
[Intercept General] Joeseph Mother:
Unfortunately, slapstick doesn't remove anything before applying files, leaving a lot of people a mixture of deodexed apps with odex files still being there, causing problems. You can try flashing the dl05 deodex template, or backing up your apps & doing a factory reset.

[Galaxy Tab General] LargePrime:
Since the sprint tabs have 2GB Internal storage vs others 16Gb internal storage, would it be possible to change the chip?

for reference

the sprint SGT teardown (closeup of 2GB chip) and An unidentified SGT

Guessing this is a surface mount and a PITA to swap out, but I'll leave it for the experts.
[Galaxy Tab General] jesand83:
The actual name for that type of IC is a BGA. BGA stands for Ball Grid Array. Basically, they have a bunch of little solder connections spread across the entire bottom of the chip.

They are indeed a pain the swap as you generally have to have a specialized soldering station that melts the solder with air heated following a specific temp profile. It might be cheaper to buy a new tablet than to have someone swap a BGA IC. that or buy a couple 32GB microSDs to swap around when space gets tight.

I could not load the browser, and the market would not load anything internet related. I got into the extras and was able to set the launcher as stock nook. Just nothing would work that i clicked on.

1ghz won't boot - gets to the "n" booting screen then reboots. 950mhz does boot (but stays on the nook color screen for quite some time first) but gives me an 899 on quadrant, compared to my 926 on quickie 950mhz. Quickie also boots more quickly.

However, when running it again, I got an 1104. Are the results always that different within a few minutes and no changes or reboots?

I forgot to mention, if you have problems force closes or getting it to boot you should clear both dalvik and regular cache with CWM recovery.

It crashes on the h264 part of Quadrant for me. Hard crashes, as in turns the device completely off. But it actually boots, unlike the other 950 kernel.

You're doing something right. I couldn't get anything above 900mhz with other kernels, but your original 950mhz works for me. The latest 1100 omap also works fine.

Best kernel i've used on the nc yet. First time i've got over 1000 on a quadrant test and it booted up on the first try. Ill need to use it longer to see if it boots every time well. The other kernel would be very hit or miss to boot and it would take many trys to boot.
