This is long-winded, but bear with me ...

So, after upgrading my ROM to the JIT backported build (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=893291) - I wiped all caches/data as described.

Prior to the install, the whole phone was backed up (apps and system data) with TB (Titanium Backup).

So upon booting back up, the phone was like new, and wanted to begin the MotoBlur registration process, I selected the "I'll do it later" option and went about installing TB via Android Market, then restoring ALL the backups (system data and apps).

On first appearance, apps were back, phone looks like it is working fine, but the sync icon (two arrows in a circle) was permanently at the top of the screen and my blur widgets didn't have any updates. I also couldn't post to twitter/facebook - it gave an error when trying.

I checked the running applications on the phone, and none of the Blur apps were running (only about 10 apps in total were actually running, by comparison to the 20+ when Blur is).

So, even though, as far as the phone is concerned, my blur account is setup, has all the accounts saved etc. - it wasn't starting the service. I'm just about to factory reset again, but this time actually enter my Blur login details on first boot - then restore via TB and see if commiting to the registration is what actually tells Blur to start.

Ultimately, if I'm right, people don't need to go to the lengths of removing all the Blur apps - they just don't need to complete the registration process!
[Defy General] blessani:
Okay, wiped the data/cache/dalvik - this time followed the Blur wizard and entered my previous details, then my Blur account was working - I could post to twitter/facebook from the homepage widget.

So, I'm restoring everything with TB again, to see if my Blur still works.
[Defy General] blessani:
Okay, so that was fairly definitive.

Ultimately,

If you don't want the MotoBlur "bloat" (even though I like it, and don't notice any slowdown when running @1.1GHz/58), simply don't set up the service in the first place. You don't need to remove anything.

Now to fix the problem with TB's restore screwing up Blur ...
[Defy General] blessani:
Well, the key with TB is to be smart with the items that you are actually restoring, to prevent messing it up.

The guide here sums it up [LINK]droidforums.net/forum/actngrezy/113219-glds-method-clean-install-restore-using-titanium-backup.html

So, I'm JIT/DEOX'ed on 2.21 z4root'ed hitting a Quad score of 1450 @ 300MHz/26, 600MHz/34 and 1100MHz/58 with SetCPU and SetVSEL, fully functional Blur and daily TB backups (both local and dropbox - register for free [LINK]db.tt/fxOD4Zf its worth it!).

For what its worth, I like Blur - when running @1.1 GHz (which I find much snappier than 1GHz), the phone is perfectly smooth and responsive. With the priority set to 65% (so that when the screen is off, there is no delay in answering calls).

Hey everyone, i know nightly qquestions arent supposed to be asked, but i consider myself a pretty experienced user and still cant figure this out.

Whenever i install a relativly recent version of gbread on my phone it completely breaks tethering. Ive tried reinstalling the gb cm kernel and reinstalling wireless tether app...the last known working rom for me is build 45 of the pre- nightly gridlock builds
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joemm:
Have you tried the native wireless tethering hotspot, works for me on CM7.

Sent from my HTC Vision
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OriginalGabriel:
Last I heard, there conflicts if you install a 3rd party tether app since tethering is already bundled into the build. Uninstall any 3rd party tether apps, reboot and try the native tethering app, it should work.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chuckmoney:
When you flash the new nightly, are you mounting /system first? I've found that if I don't mount /system before flashing, wifi and wifi tether sometimes don't like to work. (Wifi tether looks like it's working, but when you connect to it, you get a limited connection and no internet connectivity)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Durkbeef:
Hey, just tried reflashing after mounting system and still no luck..what kernel should i be using?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joemm:
CM7 doesnt work with Wireless Tether use the native Hotspot that comes with CM7 found in menu/setting/wireless&network/tethering&portable hotspot. OriginalGabrial already said this:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Durkbeef:
Yeah i know...the stock one doesnt work
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazz9690:
Same here. I ended up downloading Barnacle from the market and that works well for me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
As of late I've noticed that when I wake up my device it'll take me to my tile homepage, then quickly forward me to the lock screen where I'm prompted to enter my 4 digit pin. This never happened before and I'm wondering what's causing this.

Has anybody experiences this?
[Windows Phone 7 General] bazinga:
Yes, it's a tiny glitch that flashes the home screen then the lockscreen. Personally I had this with Windows Mobile 6.5, and it really bugged me.

Sad to see it here with WP7. :(

Maybe future updates will hopefully fix it?
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
Thanks for the reply. I figured it was a glitch. Hopefully it's fixed with an update. Ot only just started happening yesterday, and I've had my phone for about a week. :-(
[Windows Phone 7 General] CreepinJesus:
Doesn't happen for me... although, after reading this, perhaps I should add "yet"!
[Windows Phone 7 General] bazinga:
It does not happen to the stock lockscreen wallpaper ... but when I change it, it jumps from the home screen to the lockscreen, hm
[Windows Phone 7 General] OGCF:
Weirdly enough, I got a Focus that had this same bug and it drove me crazy. However I had to return that Focus because Wirefly was threatening to charge me $300 if I used it on a different line on my family plan.

So a couple of weeks later I picked up the Focus from AT&T for the $99 price and now I don't have that bug! It's weird really...
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
Do you think this could be fixed with an update?

I had something similar happen with my HD7. Instead of flashing to my tile homepage, it would flash the color green. Then it would take me to my lock screen.
[Windows Phone 7 General] bazinga:
It's driving me crazy too.
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
I changed to the stock lockscreen wallpaper and it was still glitchy. :mad:
[Windows Phone 7 General] bazinga:
Did you do a factory reset?

My wallpaper is still glitchy too, but not as much. Maybe like 1/2 a second.

Edit: Don't factory reset it if you didn't! I'm just asking if you did
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
I tried a factory reset the other day and it didn't help.

I just really hope that it's not the phone itself that's messed up.
[Windows Phone 7 General] bazinga:
I don't know if its the phone itself, but some people claim that changing phones helped. Most of the videos I've seen on Youtube with Windows Phone 7 apparently don't have this problem though.

For me, I have an HD2 and I've been switching WP7 rom's regularly. Of all the ones I've tried, I seem to have this problem.

My brother, who also has an HD2, claims to not have this problem.
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
Unfortunately, changing phones is not possible, as I have an unlocked Omnia 7 and the grace period for exchanges has passed.

It's a shame because I really love this phone and OS, but this bug is ANNOYING. :mad: It kills the experience.

If anybody else is experiencing this, please respond!
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
i guess your last hope is the upcoming update... hopefully it fixes it (and a lot of other bugs).
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
Video of the bug that I'm describing.

This user (who uploaded this video) is also having problems with his Omnia 7. It's the same bug that I described.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Oscardog777:
I'm having this problem too, but I've found an easy way to fix it (at least on my Focus). Whenever I have the brightness setting on low or automatically adjust, it goes away.

Thank you so much!!!!! :D

Lockscreen bug

Hi all,

I have samsung omnia 7 and i am getting this lockscreen issue

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isi5aKDjnws

I would like to ask if some of you with different devices are experiencing the same or is it just with OMNIA 7??

This issue appears only if you have automatic brightness turned off..
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
There's been a few topics created about this. I believe it began because of users using PINs and wanting their information to be protected... That obviously has a bit of a security flaw. I'm sure it'll be fixed in the update.
[Windows Phone 7 General] noodles222:
Hi, i can also confirm this issue on my omnia 7. Fix is as described to turn on automatic brightness.. However, i would like to ask if this is WM7 bug or Omnia 7??
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
I have a thread here in the WP7 forum and here in the Omnia 7 forum about this issue. I realized the problem some weeks ago and discovered a solution.

Turn Automadtic Adjustment ON or set the Brightness Level LOW, and it'll mask the bug.

Hopefully this is fixed in the Update. Not sure if this bug is specific to only Omnia 7 devices though.
[Windows Phone 7 General] noodles222:
yes, as you said it can mask the bug. It would be helpful to see if it appears on other devices as well so we can be sure its not only OMNIA7 issue. I think it has something to do with proxymity sensor. I am a little bit sceptic that it will be fixed in next update, dont know why, but I think that if maybe 1000 people will not complain about this Microsoft will not take care..anyway, its not that big bug, i can live with that, but still it is a bug..
[Windows Phone 7 General] sure haven't:
Can someone describe what the bug is? The video that the OP posted seems to just show someone turning the phone off and on.

Unless the bug is that it can be turned on by pressing the home button? Cause I don't think that should be possible...
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
When you wake up the device, the tile screen or the page that you were on perviously flashes, then you're directed to your lockscreen/wallpaper.

Very, very annoying.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sure haven't:
Uck yeah, that sucks. Half the reason I took the password off my old 6.5

Lockscreen bug
[Windows Phone 7 General] noodles222:
Can anyone try this on different device than Omnia 7?? Its also present when there is no password set for lock screen.

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 General] noodles222:
Anyone to try this on other device as Omnia 7 please?
[Windows Phone 7 General] kainy:
I have Omnia 7, and the bug is there ... for a months now ... and it's VERY annoying! Happens when i lock the device and the when I woke it up (with the power button or the home button doesn't matter) the tile screen is shown, and it happens every time. The problem is I can't stand the automatic adjustment for the brightness so I guess I will annoy my self for a long time :)

P.S. I can't make a video right now but after 4-5 hours I can ... if it will be any help.

Edit: I've played with the settings to see if that happens only on the home screen (dumb test I know but I have result!)

If the settings are on Low the bug doesn't appear anywhere;

If the settings are on Medium the bug appears everywhere;

If the settings are on High the bug doesn't appears only on the home screen, everywhere else (mail, massages, people hub, settings, etc.) the bug appears like on Medium settings;

If the settings are on Auto adjustment its like on Low settings.
[Windows Phone 7 General] keyboardP:
I can't recreate it on my HTC Mozart. So far, I've only heard of Samsung devices with this bug.
[Windows Phone 7 General] noodles222:
That's very sad,I hoped its wm7 bug but now it looks like its only present on Omnis 7 phones. I tried to look into registry but could not find anything.. Our only hope is next update...:-(
[Windows Phone 7 General] keyboardP:
Did you try the suggestion mentioned earlier about changing the brightness setting to low or automatic?
[Windows Phone 7 General] kainy:
I've read that some HTC HD7's got it too... Most of the Omnia 7s have it, and some HTS devices I didn't find anything about LG or Dell. But most of all Omnia7s ;(
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
I may have had a similar issue with my HD7, but I'm not sure.

Instead of flashing to the tile homepage, it would flash the color green, then forward me to the lockscreen.

Even though there's a temporary fix, I'm hoping for a permanent fix soon. Personally, I would like to be able to have my brightness set on Medium or High whenever I please.
[Windows Phone 7 General] noodles222:
HI,

I read somewhere that this may be due to the fact that phones like Samsung are locked by wakeing up the device while others are locked when you pres lock button or the screen dimms out.. It can be solved via registry edit whre you can change this LOCK ON TIME OUT or LOCK ON after WAKE UP..But i dont know if this is true and i cant find anything like that in registry..
[Windows Phone 7 General] Knochen1981:
This bug is on all WP7 Devices that i tested. HTC HD7, Mozart, Omnia 7 and LG E900.

Everyone can reproduce this bug by setting the brightness to middle or high, then press Windows Button, Lock and press unlock and voila you got the bug. Set to automatic or low and the bug is gone.

Omnia users notice it most because most amoled users set brightness to middle. LCD users mostly turn on automatic :)

I upgraded from 1.0.6 to 1.0.7 and found that my bluetooth was no longer syncing with the car. I Odined back to DI18 and found that bluetooth was fine..I deleted the pairing from the car and the phone...installed DK28 and reinstalled Nebula 1.0.7 and still have the same problem. I am not sure why the bluetooth thing stopped working. The car syncs with the rest of the bluetooth enabled devices I have.... Nebula 1.0.6 was working fine...

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
I had a similiar problem. My bluetooth devices would show up as a mac address instead of the model name and would not connect. I couldn't find an answer for this and odin'd back to DK28 and put ACS signed ROM on and Bluetooth is fine so not sure if it was one of the files removed from Samsung or Sprint in 1.0.7 but decided not to try it until someone else has the same problem. But yours sounds a little different then my problem. I read somewhere that your Bluetooth device might need a hard reset since you are only having trouble with one. Find out how to that for that device. Each is different.

[Vibrant General] crazy77:
I was trying to install a .zip file onto my phone, the update/hack to have the fascinate lockscreen on my vibrant, and I was wondering how to install it. I downloaded the	LockScreenChoice_UVJI6_clockwork.zip from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=797431 and put it on my phone. Then I booted my phone in clockwor mod and hit install zip from sd card and I selected the zip, I then let it install, but it stayed on the installing screen for 12+ hours, I needed to use my phone so I finally just took out the battery. I know that it did something because my market stopped working and that was one of the complaints from the forum that I got the "hack" from...What did I do wrong and how do i get this .zip to work?
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
which rom did you have before you flashed the zip?
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
^ that question.

The ROM may not have supported another lockscreen mod, and this happened, if you confirm to us which ROM you are using then we can actually start helping you.
[Vibrant General] oka1:
+1

If you are not using a 2.1 based rom (like Axura, bionix, Loki, etc) then these may not compatible, these were done in October, We need to know the rom you have installed,

Besides, if you Are using a 2.2 custom rom, then these already are installed.
[Vibrant General] engineer14:
so i am guessing this is a vibrant, and not a fascinate as your topic implies?
[Vibrant General] crazy77:
Really sorry, yes it is for the vibrant. the rom I was using was just the stock rom, my firmware is 2.1-update1 though and my build is eclair.uvji6 and my baseband version is t959uvji6 also my kernel is 2.6.29 hope that helps
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
Which Zip did you use?
[Vibrant General] crazy77:
I used the ji6 zip, not the deodexed one, but the odexed one
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
I honestly did not know what went wrong, it looks like you did everything correctly. Do you mind using a custom rom? Because Bionix Final have the lock screen build it and to fix your phone, you probably have a reflash stock, either way you have to flash your phone.

If you don't mind moving to 2.2, you can even try the new Bionix-V, which also have the lock screens built in.
[Vibrant General] crazy77:
I would prefer to stay with a 2.1 rom, but I would not mind having a custom rom as long as it does not change the appearance too much, and I can get the lock screen. Where can I find this rom and a description of it?

p.s. is there any other way to make this work?
[G2 and Desire Z General] mobilemidget:
Hey, I am trying to successfully get a new ROM, and in all the forums and such I have read tell me that with the Desire Z/G2 I need to flash the newest ClockWorkMod recovery. So i have downloaded a couple different recovery .img files.

Now when i use Emulator, i put in;

su

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recoveryname.img

and it says

flash_image: not found

I dont understand why ROM Manager doesnt give the newest recovery file as an option.

Can anyone help me in this situation?

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z General] jojo_16:
Did u delete the name on the recoveryname.img upon flashing??
[G2 and Desire Z General] PanCubano:
Download Root Explorer and navigate to /system/bin

Make sure /system is mounted in r/w then take this attached file, unzip it, and place it inside of /system/bin

Go back into terminal and try that command again.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mobilemidget:
ok so I installed root manager, and put the flash_image.zip in the system/bit, and tried it again with the terminal emulator, but i still have no results, it says after the pause when you plress enter after the flash_image prompt, your supposed to reboot the phone and it should start with the new recovery, but when i open ROM manager it staill shows V 2.5.... If i did somthing wrong i cant figure it out., Please help.

Thanks

Follow these instructions. You can't go wrong. Make sure you back out of the app and go back in. It sets the cursor to the correct posistion. All you have to do is put the .img in the root of your sd. Hope this helps, it did for me.
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
wait, so why aren't you just flashing the recovery through ROM manager? Are you trying to install CWR 3.0+?
[G2 and Desire Z General] mobilemidget:
yes I am trying to flash cwm 3.0, and it is not an option with ROM manager. I will try the Youtube instructions. Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z General] mobilemidget:
Ok so I tried the instructions with the Youtube video, and when i do the cmd promt in Terminal i get this;

Cant open device: "/dev/block/mmcblk0"

error in reading mbr!

failed with error: -1

I have the recovery.img file (not zip) on the sd card, I used root mamnager to put it in the bin file within system. but the instructions on the video say to use astro and it doesnt give an option to go as deep as root manager.

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtadak:
Yes unzip it but make sure its in the root of your sd. That means not folders at all. That's the command that he is making in the video. I don't think you can flash cwm 3.0 in rom manager, only revert back to earlier recoveries, for froyo roms.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtadak:
Make sure the file is named what your commanding it to be. Make sure its recovery.img no caps.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TJBunch1228:
OK so I am trying this too. I am putting the recovery image directly to the root of my sd and I can see that it's there. But in TE, I put in the commands and it tells me

flash_image: not found

It's there!!!! I can see it when I have my phone connected. What am I doing wrong?

Edit: I am running stock rooted. Does this have something to do with it?
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtadak:
Rooted running a stock rom? Honestly I can't tell you all I know is I'm running custom rom. If I had to guess I would say it doesn't. All I can say is I had issues until I watched the video, sorry I can't help more. Only thing I would say to do is wipe everything you did and try redoing it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtadak:
I can say you should only have one .img in your sd to not confuse it. I'm pretty sure you can use command prompt on your pc if you have access to one.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mobilemidget:
Ok, I think I am getting somewhere, I was searching my sdcard on my computer, and I realised that the root of my sdcard is not called "sdcard" so in the command i was doing it wrong, It is called "HTC DESIRE" so i did it in Emulator and it worked i rebooted my phone in recovery and I am now rocking the new ClockworkMod Recovery 3.0.0.5...

Thanks all for the help, Hope what i discovered helps someone else.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mobilemidget:
Wait, Wait, Wait... I just screwed it up again... I went into ROM Manager after I successfully flashed 3.0.0.5. and it was not showing that in ROM Manager, so I tapped on flash latest recovery, and damnit... it replaced all my hard work with the 2.5 recovery... I have tried to repeat the flash process a few times with 3.0, and i have not been successful... Help... I dont know what to do now!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] takram:
Instead of flashing the recovery in rom manager, after you've inputted the

su

# flash_image recovery sdcard/recovery.img

you can just type in after it

# reboot recovery

and it will reboot you into CWM 3.0. Be sure to perform a nandroid backup under 2.2 first and when you want to go back to a froyo rom, you'll have to flash the 2.5 recovery image again.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jtadak:
Yes, you will not see it in rom manager. Just reboot into the recovery and if you see orange and cwm 3.0 your good. Just repeat the steps.
