[Desire HD Themes and Apps] mwright:
My DHD seems to have developed an issue with PEEP.

As you can see from the attached image, recent direct messages do not display properly whilst older ones display fine.

I have tried resetting, cleared out Peep's cache, deleted the account and created it again to no effect.

Anyone else seen this?

Regards

3. INSTALL DRIVERS (Windows only)

Your Windows PC will show a notification that a device “APX” has been detected. If you get a

“Found new hardware” dialog box asking where to install drivers from - choose “list or specific

location”. If you don't get this dialog, open the Device Manager via System in the Control

Panel, find and double-click the “APX” device, and click the update driver button.

Select the “usbpcdriver” folder inside the extracted Adam Recovery Kit as the driver location.

You may receive a warning that the driver is not certified or signed by Windows – choose to

install it anyway.

I'm trying to install the new update, but when i get to this portion of the instructions, I cannot for the life of me get the computer on Windows XP to recognize my device as a APX file. It's not even an option in the control panel in add new hardware. The computer keeps trying to recognize it as nvida harmony device

i saw this webpage about it and it directed me to a nvida webpage and i have absolutely no idea which one to install or whatso...

[Adam General] webs05:
Not sure if this will help, but here is some info on recovering Adam. It mentions APX...

[Adam General] roebeet:
Also check out the GTAB forums, as the problems will probably be similar. I think Windows 64-bit and APX drivers may not play nice, for example.

NVM....i read the stupid instructions wrong. it's power button and VOLUME DOWN ........grrrrrrrrrr
[Galaxy Tab General] alimahmoud:
i don't know how to make files in my galaxy tab be hidden, also i dont know how to hide applications in the application menu,

about the hidden files i couldnt find any thing in my root explorer to make the files hidden.

also in applications, i got into /data/app then moved some applications in order to hide them from the application menu but didn't work.

thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] kenyu73:
Unless your rooted, you cant hide the stock apps. If you are rooted, then the stock apps need to be removed from "/system/app". "data/app" is the location where downloaded Market apps (and updated stock apps) are installed.

I just use LauncherPro and hide apps from the app tray that way. Havent decided if I want to root my V-GT yet as I just got it a few days ago.
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
To hide a file, like for example your porn movie hidden so it's not seen in the gallery by your girlfriend (jk), use any file manager with root access, and put a period in front of the file name. Ie, long press, rename, put period in front. Now that movie won't show up in the list.
[Galaxy Tab General] wassini:
Not on Samsung Galaxy tab

Dot-in-front does not work on a Samsung Galaxy tab :-!
[Galaxy Tab General] agc93:
Actually, it does. I use it regularly.

The most common problem that would cause this to not work is:

a) Your file explorer shows hidden files by default (this is more common than it should be) OR

b) there's a space between the period and the file name (note that some keyboards insert this automatically)

If that still doesn't work, let us know what kind of file and what file explorer you're using and we might be able to help.
[Galaxy Tab General] sauat:
Try Hide it Pro app. Best of the best for me :) https://market.android.com/details?id=com.smartanuj.hideitpro&hl=pl

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrabMan:
I have http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=790825 installed with cronos froyo. I use this firmware only for a week and my 160 MB internal memory is already half-used. How can it be so with A2SD? And how can i know for what it is used? Also how can i check, if A2SD really works?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] docertabum:
I had no issues with APPS2SD under the Cronos. As I know it is automatically enabled. Do you have repartitioned memory card? I mean do you have ext2 partition created on you memory card? Fat32 in not enough (as I know). If you use Amon_Ra recovery use it to create partitions like this: 0MB for SWAP, 512-1024MB for EXT and rest of memory card for FAT32 to store you mp3 files, movies, whatever...

You can always try to run Titanium Backup and on first screen you can see how much internal memory you have, how much space in EXT (if exists) and how mych space in FAT partition you have...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrabMan:
Yeah, I have Ext2 partition on sd card.

Titanium Backup says:

Internal 87 free 173 total

SD 912 free 1.55 total

SD (a2sd) 283 free 359 total

What's wrong? What is half of internal memory used for?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] docertabum:
hmm.... if you have Titanium Backup then you can force him to move your apps from internal memory to SD... but be careful I think it is not good to move "widget apps" to SD card. obviously DO A NANDROID first :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrabMan:
I moved almost all apps to sd via titanium backup.

That's how it changed:

87/173 ----> 87/173 internal

912/1.55 ----> 810/1.55 sd

283/359 ----> 338/359 a2sd

Looks like it just moved all my apps from EXT2 to FAT32 partition. But there is still half of internal memory used.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] docertabum:
check the dir called ".android_secure" on your SD card... probably your apps have been moved here. I guess this happen when "google's froyo apps2sd" system has been used. Did you try to move those apps through the menu item which also allows to move apps in Recovery? btw. check your PM
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SMCentral:
My HTC Desire's wifi signal is really bad when using other ROMs.

With any Sense ROM (Both stock, rooted or HD ones), I have full wifi signal.

I have tried many radios, help please!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrod33084:
So every time I wanna try out a new rom I always go back to stock just because it makes me feel better to start from scratch. But every time I do I have to do a complete wipe on my sd card before I can root. The update.zip file will still be there but I can't root unless I completely wipe the sd then reinstall the update.zip file. Any one know why that is necessary? It gets annoying having to either lose all my data or transfer it to my computer.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Settai:
You dont have to wipe your SD card to root. Heck if you have the update.zip for clockwork you dont even have to root your phone again just reinstall packages twice and you will be in clockwork. Once you flash the ROM from there you'll have root (considering ofc that the ROM you flash is rooted).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
You do NOT have to go back to stock everytime... read my guides. You really only need to do that if you have issues with the new rom. It takes me 30 minutes max to go from one rom to another and be set back up like normal (this includes downloading the rom).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrod33084:
So are you saying that even if I don't see the superuser app im still rooted if I can get into recovery from the stock rom? Id feel like an idiot if this whole time I was deleting and transferring files for no reason this whole time lol
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zylograth:
You don't need root to load clockwork recovery, I often leave the update.zip for clockwork on my sd card and when I odin back to jfd I then reinstall packages from recovery, get into clockwork recovery and choose the zip I want to flash

I usually use z4 root when I need to root my phone on Eclair.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrod33084:
Im an idiot. I was only looking for the superuser app to know if im rooted or not

[G2 and Desire Z General] Jaskwith:
Don't know what the diploamacy for the G2 and the MT4G is, but I am an indifferent neutral, that being said.... I was hoping for some input from you lovely people. I have been replacing my MT4G trynig to get a good screen etc... and I am up for a phone swap, now that I have replaced it 3+ times... MY questions is, does anyone have experience switching from the MT4G to the G2? What is their opinion and why? (I am not looking for opinionated responses such as: GET THE G2, OR FAIL AT LIFE!)...I am just looking at performance against performance, and display.. and The hinges...Thats what I am mostly worried about, if your hinges wear out, are you able to replace them thru tmo as many times as you need to? Anyways, any responses are appreciated. Thank you.
[G2 and Desire Z General] KiNG OMaR:
The hinges are only a problem if you make them a problem. Sorry I'm not answering your question, but the hinge does what it's supposed to do. If it bothers you, then your holding the phone in an awkward position in a way it wasn't meant to be held.

Performance... G2 has one of the best processors around.

Display is the same as the display in the MT4G(S-LCD).

The G2 is one of the best android phones out, and with the second gen processor pretty much smokes the competition.

...and not to mention tons of developer support :p
[G2 and Desire Z General] Jaskwith:
Yea... I noticed that even though the processor is smaller, its second generation seems to more than make up for it. When I talk about hinges, I mean do they wear out easily..and is that covered? I know the g1 hinges were pretty shaky. The development for this phone is so solid, that is why I considered the swap in the first place.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Nospin:
I have never had any problems with my hinge, and mine is a preorder phone from september. Granted, if you drop the thing often, I can see them being one of the first things to go. If you are really worried I would spring for the insurance.

Internals are the same as the MT4G I think. Slightly smaller screen, but a hardware keyboard and stock android to compensate. Only feature I wish it had was a ffc, but that's more a novelty than anything.

The two are extremely comparable, cousins for the most part. That being said, the G2 was my first android phone and I love it!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Jaskwith:
Hm yea.. that is really the ONLY thing that has kept me from MT4G-->G2. FFC...I NEED it, I video chat frequently, being in the military and all...hmnmm

[Windows Phone 7 General] mediatorxd:
How can I backup my Windows Phone (Optimus 7) and restore it after a factory reset?

What will be backed up and what will not?

How to backup and restore if I want to register my phone after the factory reset with a DIFFERENT Live account?
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
being able to backup/restore the phone is coming in the first update due out in the next couple of weeks, otherwise, I don't think anything else is out there.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mediatorxd:
Any tips, workarounds etc?

(I will not be the first running into this problem.)

Any possibility to copy stuff from one Live account to another Live account (contacts, agenda, pictures)?
[Windows Phone 7 General] kdj67f:
I had my surround die and when I got my replacement I synced it to the Zune desktop client and it restored everything, including added contacts and pictures. I set it up with my coresponding live account and facebook first and it came back like I never changed phones.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
WLive will sync everything back to the phone.

But it is better to sync pictures by Zune because when you upload them they get idiotically resized.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mediatorxd:
The main reason I want to backup and restore is that I want to reset the phone and register it under a different Live account.

Registering under a different Live account ('B') would not allow me to restore from my current Live account ('A') to my new account ('B') would it?
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
in terms of contacts and calendar, you can easily copy/paste them accross using outlook and outlook connector. SMS do not back up. with an xbox you can transfer your xbox account to another windows live account. though i'm not sure what happens to purchases, that's all.
[Windows Phone 7 General] captobie:
Did that include SMS messages?
[Windows Phone 7 General] kdj67f:
No. I never try to keep them around long anyway, but as far as I know there is no native support in Zune to backup text/mms messages. I save the mms pictures I want and they get synced to Zune.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mediatorxd:
So far I found these to work (pitty that there is no tutorial/wiki yet).

How to copy Contacts and Calendar from one Live account to another:

Contacts:

1. Login to Live/Hotmail account A then Export Contacts to CSV file.

2. Login to Live/Hotmail account B then Import Contacts CSV file.

Calendar:

Requires Microsoft Outlook:

1. Download Microsoft Outlook Connector for Hotmail

2. Install it

3. Add Live/Hotmail account A to Outlook

4. Add Live/Hotmail account B to Outlook

5. Display calendars from account A and B in list view

6. Select all appointments from account A

7. Then copy (or move) selected appointments to account B's calendar.

8. And send/receive changes to Live accounts.

How to save Images/Video/Music from the Phone to PC (so they can be restored later):

Use Zune for syncrohronizing to PC

and/or

Use registry hack to 'connect Windows Phone 7 as USB storage device' and copy the files/folders manually.

For saving SMS and Email I could not find a solution.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Draken Korin:
Hi,

I would like to propose the creation of a central reference thread for each sub-forum within the X10mini/pro fora.

They would contain rules, how to search, basics, FAQs, links to rooting, tutorials/guides, mods, themes, apps,... with respect to the respective sub-forum.

To get an idea check e.g. Hero CDMA Android Dev.

This will hopefully

-help organizing the fora more clearly

-prevent the same questions coming up all over again

-provide a useful pool of up-to-date information for both new and experienced users

-reduce everyone's need to search for fundamental things

-negate the need to otherwise sticky so many threads that the fora are just becoming unclear and clogged

You would be responsible to propose threads kept for future reference.

Opinions pls. :)

Thx and Best, DK
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] The Andropirate:
i think we have a thread like the CDMA thread made by dettofatto. the only thing is that we have multiple threads on same topic which could be deleted
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Draken Korin:
just checked them briefly and yes, very good and helpful, not stickied though

so referencing them would be a must but imo wouldn't contradict my proposal about the central thread...:)

still, that's just me and its about you...will therefore patiently wait for further comments on this ;)

Ed. I can add a poll if you think that's more helpful/faster
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
Sounds good.. and while we are at it.. get people to stick to the threads.. put all Themes in the Themes and Apps thread (not in Development) keep DEV stuff in the Dev Thread etc.. perhaps add a Newbie Thread where newbs can ask for help with issues so they don't fill the other threads...

Why are there Themes in the Dev section? :confused:

But yes a reorg is needed.

Kiwi
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] The Andropirate:
My concern is create two separate forums for x10 mini and x10 mini pro
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Draken Korin:
unfortunately happens regularly, excuses are manyfold and it would be naive to think this project will prevent it

still should be well worth the effort

cleanup and heavy thread shifting will be done anyway, already started but due to time restriction only on the dev fora...but will be continued :)

I assume you mean for all subfora and not only for dev?

are accessories, t&a and so on so different that one cannot be used for/is incompatible to the other device?

then I would talk to admin, so pls enlighten me
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] rikirix:
I think that is fine and useful to put all important sw,updates and guides in same thread and link discussions only to this thread, of course then each sw has own discussions for help and experiences.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kurotany:
I would like a forum reorg :P

i also think that there are too many simillar threads, some that are just questions and are very missleading sometimes, also in the wrong place, maybe a structure like

*general

--tutorials/findings/configs/etc

--questions

*developement

--e10i/u20i

---->findings/breakthroughs/tutorials

---->questions

--e10i specific

---->findings/breakthroughs/tutorials

---->questions

--u20i specific

---->findings/breakthroughs/tutorials

---->questions

*themes

--method tutorials

--themes postings

--questions

*requests

or something like that :D because a reorganization is in need :p

also i think that there should be a section for both mini and pro because they may be different in hardware, but many methods, apps and ideas frome one work on the other and i feel that sometimes we miss out on developement from one or the other
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Draken Korin:
hi

thx all for the contribution, I waited some time hoping additional ones might be posted, but maybe all are happy with the current suggestions...or waiting for my response...:rolleyes:

lets comment:

all devices get as default the layout

xx General

xx Development

xx Accessories

xx Themes & Apps

device specific we have the known two dev fora, one for e10i and one for u20i and I don't think I can convince admin to create another one for shared development

not that I don't see the potential advantage, but I assume "misuse" would dominate so I'm fine as it is

still I also considered it wise to provide a place to collect development results of any kind usable on both devices

so alternately you have to specify dual usage in the thread title and we can also create an additional thread with references on that

reaching certain criteria a separate Q&A can be added, which I personally like very much and will address to admin immediately when a fore mentioned criteria are fulfilled

so as mentioned we are bound to the general forum layout, but what we might achieve could be like this:

*general

---->tutorials/findings/configuration/requests/FAQs/troubleshooting/references/how to/etc

---->e.g. separate thread like "newbies questions here"

---->OT chat thread if you like

*accessories

---->all accessories (batteries, cases, screen protection,...)

*development

--e10i specific

---->development (non app, non theme)/findings/breakthroughs/tutorials/roms/guides/modifications

---->reference thread for everything proven working/usable on both devices

--u20i specific

---->development (non app, non theme)/findings/breakthroughs/tutorials/roms/guides/modifications

*themes and apps

---->method tutorials/themes postings/applications posting/screen shots/miscellaneous (like splash screens,...)

*questions&answers (hopefully soon)

---->for all the rest (when available)

not stating this is finalized but it should give a good idea

comments pls :)

Cheers, DK

I intend to start this weekend, because I won't find the time before, but it's scheduled...;)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] naero:
sounds really good!

maybe creating at the theme section a difference for mini and pro, or does the most of them on both models?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] option94:
I would like to see a Q&A section. It would be nothing but beneficial as a place for people to ask questions without cluttering the general thread.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Draken Korin:
I already requested it, it will be available as soon as site admin finds the time :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] option94:
I figured that, just throwing my .02 cents out there.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kobzarcheg:

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Draken Korin:
care to elaborate on that?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PTGamer:
it is nice...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PTGamer:
we will have a new org?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Draken Korin:
there already is as proposed in #1

pls explain in detail what you mean
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bogdj:
yes it's cool, but include a general index for any agrument, like themes indes, roms indes, etc
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Draken Korin:
how do you mean that: like dettofatto's here? but one each for roms, themes, q&a,...?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] greves1:
There should be a non-dev forum for mini pro.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Draken Korin:
all devices are subject to a unified forum layout consisting of the basic sub fora (also described in #10):

general

q&a

accessories

[OS] development [OS mainly in (WM, WP7, Android)]

themes&apps

but I'm sure you already know that :)

so when you ask for a non-dev forum I would instinctively say: that's general

but I may be mistaken and you mean something altogether different, in that case be so kind and explain in more detail :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] HuTcHx:
sound good idea
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ThiaagoFelix:
Yes. It will be helpfull.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] szl.kiev:
I think it's better to separate between themes and apps sub forum
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tomvanoppens:
roms should get a custom category
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] allyouracid:
For the mini pro? Don't know if that's already needed, as the custom-roms-for-the-mini-pro-thingy is quite new and we don't have that much roms yet. But for clarity reasons, i would agree. :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ashifr5:
sure do! will love to see something new
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] craterib:

quick reply?

Good design, but where is the quick reply button? Have I missed it or we should always use the regular reply with advanced options or with quote!!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Draken Korin:
it's only visible in the bottom right corner of the respective post field when you are logged in
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hmaxos:
Oh yeah.. I see. What about the "thank you" button? Is it kind of controversial? I've noticed some people get disappointed when they don't get enough "thanks"! Maybe they are right after their efforts.
