Good luck with the stock ROM restoration :) Btw, I just want to suggest that you don't use KDZ flasher to restore to stock firmware. If you already have a custom recovery installed, just flash another ROM over the one you want to replace.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Der_Caveman:
Its all done now.

How to prepare the original LG kdz to be flashed with custom recovery (I just installed it)?

TIA,

Caveman.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
What do you mean? If you mean flashing the KDZ from the custom recovery, I don't think you can.

Here's a handy list of custom ROMs we have in the site (at least for the O1):

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Der_Caveman:
It sounded like you could flash stock rom with custom recovery...

I noticed that there are a lot of custom roms available ;)

So, thank you again,

Caveman
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
Sorry about that. How I talk/write can be confusing at times xD But yes, you can install the stock ROM with custom recovery, just not the .kdz file. From that KDZ file you can create a zip to flash using custom recovery.

I think the main reason why people revert to stock firmware (ROM + stock recovery) is because they have to take it to a service center and they still have their warranty. Or if they badly need the factory stuff xD
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Der_Caveman:
Yeah, that's it :D
[General Questions and Answers] Baseball12.lg:
i have been on the fence on wether i should root or not and i think i am ready to root my evo. i have been doing some research and it looks like i have two options that would be best. i could dowload the sdk and root my phone that way or i could download the ota simple root 1click version 1.47.651.1. i saw a video on the simple root that had 4 clicks and then you had to go to extras and flash a recovery. it all seamed pretty simple but when i went to download the ota simple root file, instead of giving me 4 buttons it only gave me 2. it said it was the lastest version and so i went with it. i clicked the root button and it pulled up the command box and started doing it thing but after pushing the files it said that the adb was outdates and it was killing it got an error and it tried again went to pushing the pc36 said the adb was out of date again and gave error then continued to push the flash file os somthing like that.... and again it said adb out of date killing but gave error tried again and again and again... ect. until it went to red screen telling me when my phone screen had skating adroid men on it push power button to reboot and so on..... push any key to continue but phone never went to screen with android men. went over the whole process again and this time when red screen came up i did a factory reset and still nothing happened except for when it got to my home screen it said please wait while loading my take awhile then went to white screen with just htc and then back to home screen. i know this seems like a lot but the more thorough the better. can anyone help or point in the right direction?

I have an old XDA IIs that I would like to get working.

If possible I would like to get this XDA working on a Pay as You Go data transfer tariff.

How do I do this?

This used to be a contract phone with O2 but contract was cancelled 4 years ago and the phone has not been used since.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] oldxda:
Solution to change from Post Paid to Pre Paid (pay as you go)

UPDATE:

I found the answer on the O2 website

NOTE: you will need to copy / paste the URL above and check that it ends with 2059 (no spaces)

I hope HD2 gets Honeycomb, that"ll be sick. Pure bragging rights, 6 os's on one phone lol. Also hoping my Nook Color gets it as well. ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] raven_raven:
If you count Android version as one OS, it should be many more ;].

Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, Honeycomb.

And not Android OSes: Windows Mobile 6.5, Windows Phone 7, Ubuntu, MeeGo. Does Windows 95/98 are counted too? If yes, it makes 10 in total, and 8 usable :). Of course if we count like we should Android as one OS, it would make 5 systems. Even then it's damn sky high as majority of smartphones run just one dedicated OS.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MartyLK:
Isn't Honeycomb strictly a tablet OS? I tried to use the normal HD2 res on it and 240 display density and got only force closes when trying to boot it on my PC.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tmihai20:
I have just got used to Gingerbread and now we could get Homenycomb??? Maaan, this would be awesome :D I only want the devs to take their time to improve Gingerbread as much as possible.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bugfoo:
Why would you want a tablet based os on such a little screen like the hd2. Makes no sense to me. I do believe this is one ill stay away from..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] diaztradeinc:
Yea ok, i bet if its ported and runs nice u will flash! lol
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MartyLK:
Just caught eye of this new story. It appears Honeycomb won't be limited to tablets. There's mention of a phone version to be released later this year. :)

Honeycomb love. Outstanding! Because the preview version impressed me. A lot different from the usual Android. I would love having this on my HD2.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] radiance26:
Honeycomb is very nice according to pocketnow :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shadowhacker27:
you could have just done it and not post about it. It makes as much sense as the fact the even though u said you wouldnt, you will...

Anyway, HoneyComb Ftw!!! Functionalities are a plus. I bet we will get native 720p out of this one, just like WP7
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tmihai20:
I am posting here so that any dev that could start working on this would better improve Gingerbread. I wouldn't install it yet, I will wait just like I did with Gingerbread. Nice file though.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] jaidedfocus:
This will be awesome to see! Now if only the HD2 came in tablet form it could be just as customizable as the phone :eek:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MartyLK:
I think Tytung might come out with the first ROM. His or MDJ's would both be good ones...for making stock ROMs...not to dis any of the others. They all do excellent work.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sentinel196:
I had a play with the SDK and virtual machine just before. It certainly doesn't look like something hat would operate comfortably on a small screen, however I'm sure it could be easily adapted with a different launcher without losing functionality to work properly on a phone.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shadowhacker27:
It's all about new functionalities! That's why I hope these guys work on it fast. If they havent noticed this thread, it would be nice if the OP pm's some of them, although it would suck to receive a negative feedback :/
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dirn1111:
Omg you guys are nuts, Honeycomb could be ported but its minimum hardware requirement is the dual core cpu!! So it will be heavily lagging.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MartyLK:
It could probably be done with a virtual processor arrangement. From what I have read, the upcoming dual-cores will be 1.2GHz. That is only 200MHz faster than the HD2 CPU. The system could probably be tweaked to provide smooth operation. This is, of course, the phone version of Honeycomb actually does need dual-cores. There was a response from Google that Honeycomb doesn't require dual-core CPUs.

Honeycomb requirements

EDIT - According to this link, the dual core is a Tegra 2 and will be 1GHz per core.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] spbeeking:
The myth that it requires a dual core cpu has been debunked several times. Sure, all of the tablets that will ship with honeycomb will have tegra2 dual core processors, but it does not require them.

Hi, i don't know if this is the correct place to ask, but i have this user who claimed to (might be the first in the world as i speak) have enabled X10 multitouch without rooting his device.

As i try to reason with him that he is wrong and might be getting the wrong information, he speaks even bolder and louder (even to a point of doubting the wonderful guys here at XDA of their hardwork?)

He was trying to sell his used X10 on a local forum.

The link is here:

forum.lowyat.net/topic/1731902

Below are quoted from him

So can anyone confirm what he said is true/false?

because i also own a X10 and i have yet to root mine to get multitouch.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crowds:
Hi,

Didn`t had the patience to read all your post but this is THE FACT

You CAN flash Dualtouch without root.

Q: Can i gent DT work?

A: Yes

Q: Does it work on every apps?

A: No. For that you must be rooted.

Using THIS tool and follow THIS guide.

Now some info.

When you use the flashtool you`re using the same file format that SE uses (dispite it has been renamed to *.ftf files to work with this tool) so, after flash you won`t get rooted.

When you flash the dualtouch.ftf file you are in fact flashing your kernel without affcting anything else ´cause this kernel file was "taken" from an original SE release in Japan.

So you can say to your "friend" :p that he`s right and you are wrong and if you had any dough try it.

You only have root acces IF and ONLY IF your press "Root" button on that tool.

If the CWM files are in the root and it still doesn't work, make a folder and put them in there. There's a menu option for selecting which folder to boot Android from. You need to use that to point at the folder where you just moved the CWM files. It should work then.

In the Magldr menu go to:

Services, BootSettings, AD SD Dir and select the folder.​

Note: You can't select the root folder <.> - it's a known issue with Magldr.

[General Topics] Electrolight:
I am interested in putting together a list of ALL official HTC widgets, either stock widgets found on different HTC devices as well as the "additional" widgets no one can seem to download.

I think this tread should be sticky-ed and should be made the HTC widgets archive thread.

Why? because I am sure most will agree that the HTC widgets are the best widgets for Android but there are so many out there and putting them all in one place for HTC device owners to download and enjoy just makes sense (get it? like HTC Sense? hahaha). For example, I have a myTouch 3G Slide which has some cool widgets on it and my friend just got a Droid Incredible with has some awesome widgets that I don't have and want, this would be a great place to post them.

Anyways, if you have a rooted HTC device or have any HTC widgets post them here. Extracting widgets from HTC roms is also a good way to get them.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zeroize:
The X10 mini only has 128MB of internal storage. I was wondering if there is an easy way to solve this, because I thought that Android only runs apps from internal memory by default.

Is there any good offline GPS app with all the maps included (no internet pre-caching needed)? How much space does it take this kind of offline GPS?

I'm asking this because I really want to use an offline GPS in this phone. If it's not possible I'll look for other androind phones (despite the X10 is the smaller one I found and my first choise for that reason).
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
Most GPS apps do store their content (maps, pois, etc.) on the SD card so it's no problem using them on the mini.

I'm using ndrive, it nice, allows you to select which maps to download from the internet and stores them on the sd card.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sur1k:
If you device is rooted try this app: Link2SD.

It allows to move user apps to sdcard (but IMHO works better then App2SD). Works perfect on all xperias (both minies, X8 and X10i).
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zeroize:
What I don't understand is that if there's a lot of android roms that are about 100 to 150Mb in size, how is it possible for the X10 Mini to have only 128 Mb of storage space?

Are the 128Mb the free storage aviable for users? If so, how much space dos it have for Android?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] parthabhatta:
Very good find. This will pacify me to some extent for not having FROYO. I would like to install it. A detailed experience from you will help.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zeroize:
Good to know that Foryo has support for installing applications to the expandable memory.

Will the x10 mini be updated to froyo?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sur1k:
parthabhatta,

everything works as described in the Link2SD thread. You need just to root your phone, create ext2 partition on sdcard (better to use faster one; I use 6 class) and install the app. I linked such 'greedy' apps as navigation app and games (like Angry Birds). They work fine.

There's no reasons to copy or rewrite the manual. It's good and would't be better after English-Russian-English translation ;) If you get any particular questions, I'll be glad to help.

No.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] parthabhatta:
Great advice. I have installed this app successfully and installed Angry Bird which is running well. BTW my card doesn't have a class marked on it and I think its the slowest one (16gb, Class 2). But the Angry Bird runs well.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] newtron_b1:
works flawlessly!!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zeroize:
So is there really any difference between using Android Froyo (wich has native support for installing apps in the microsd card) and Link2SD (wich is the only alternative to the X10 since it's not going to be updated to Froyo)?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sur1k:
If I'm not mistaken, Froyo doesn't allow to move all apps. Application must support this feature to be moved. Have you seen "App2SD!!!" comments in Market? That's about it :)

Link2SD allows to move any user app. The only disadvantage is that using Link2SD you have to relink apps after updating (or delete link if you decided to uninstall something).

rikirix started a new topic about Link2SD. Maybe it would be better to continue the discussion there. And mark the question as answered :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zeroize:
Ok. By the way, there are projects to port froyo to de x10 mini and pro once the bootloader is fully decrypted.

Recipe books (if she likes cooking)
