Hello everyone...

I've tried many ways to root my xperia mini pro.

I tried SuperOneClick, UniversalAndroot and z4root.

Neither of them succeeds in rooting.

Problems with superoneclick >>> it keeps looping

Problems with universalandroot >>> it shows failure in rooting

Problems with z4root >>> it keeps asking to turn on USB debugging even though it is on

Ph info:

Firmware version 2.1-update 1

Kerneal version 2.6.29

Build number 2.1.1.A.0.6

I really appreciate your time to consider helping me...

Hey guys, got a bit of a problem, whilst performing a backup, with Clockwork recovery. I followed the steps listed here http://theunlockr.com/2010/02/06/how-to-backup-and-restore-your-android-phone/ Hit Backup and Restore and my phone has gone to a black screen.

Is this normal or should I start panicking now?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
I didn't follow the link but i'm gone guess you used the power button and not the trackpad. just hit it again and use the trackpad form now on in recovery.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thetasigma2:
Thanks for the quick response man, I was s******g myself :p

Guess I mis-interpreted that. I thought it meant to simply use the optical button to scroll to the item. It's running the backup as we speak by the way :)

Ah bugger... Seems my problems ain't over yet. I selected to reboot and now my phone's gone into a 'reboot loop'. Flashing the HTC logo, which hangs for a few seconds, disappears, then comes back, over and over... :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Seems to be an issue with CWM. Restore the backup and it'll work fine
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thetasigma2:
Thanks again EddyOS, seems to be working again now. Restored no problem and rebooted fine.

Any idea where I go from here seeing as CWM doesn't seem to like my phone? Am I still safe to look into flashing a custom rom? That experience has seriously shook my confidence... :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Problem only seems to affect the first backup - should be fine from now on. Personally I use AmonRA as my recovery

With the latest firmware I noticed the android_id is set to dead00beef, I checked this android id changer. This causes a problem with games expecting a unique id, e.g. racing live.

In order to use Android ID Changer would I have to get sde?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarsnGadgets:
if you are rooted, (even using archangel) you could try installing 'marketenabler'

and set it to tmobile usa (or maybe an other). This allowed me to play 'pocket racing' in multiplayer mode, which previously would not as it could not see my device ID.

this will also help you see more protected apps on the market by the way.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger001:
I tried that but it didn't work. Idont think that changes android_id

Tom G has got working builds of this now. Lots of stuff needs fixing HOWEVER calls are working now :) This is massive news so thought i would let the small amount of users on here that aren't on Modaco know.

The links are over at modaco but if you want a stable device i recommend waiting :)

This also means porting things like MIUI should now be possible. And maybe even an AOSP build of Gingerbread :)

EDIT:

Forgot to post this in general sorry thought it was.
[Blade General] OpenMinded:
AWESOME news!

That means MIUI and Gingerbread are just a matter of time, right?

What is the best place to follow news about this?

I can't wait to have a MIUI rom for my Blade, it would make it even more awesome :)!

Thanks for the news

How can I install it on nebula rom? Its needed to run some process and was removed on it.

Thanks
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
pull the apk out of another rom. It should be in either /data/apps or /system/apps. You can use something like Astro or ES file manager to "open" the apk and install it to your phone.

Ok thanks. Ill try.

What is sdx app rev? I pulled the file from a ROM, and copied it onto my sdcard, but wont install into the phone.
[Epic 4G General] Phasma343:
You need to push it to /system/app/ with adb or via terminal on the phone.

Pull the files out of another rom. They are just zip files.

[Nook Color General] myteematt:
After digging around for a few weeks I cannot seem to find detailed instructions on going from a rooted NC running 1.0.0 to Froyo permanently on the EMMC. I have seen bits & pieces across different threads, but I always seem to be missing what the pre-requisites are, how to get there, and I usually dont get the meanings of some acronyms such as (dd). A youtube video would be great but I know thats a reach. Im quite familiar with this type of stuff as I currently have a rooted Nexus One running CM7 nightly roms. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Nook Color General] smcmanus:

Shouldn't matter what OS you're coming from, since the instructions there will overwrite everything anyway.

does it make a difference when using wifi on your phone to load that image? just wondering if its some proxy from your carrier downsizing the image. happens sometimes.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vroomr4:
So I got a semi answer for this..it either has to do with the vm heap size and the limits imposed by android for each app to use a limited amount of ram. uncompressed that png exceeded 32mb and threats why it's blurry.

I also read it may have to do with android using opengl es that limits the bits used to show as it renders the pics as textures....but this is more applied to cool iris 3d gallery..not sure if this applies to the browser
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vroomr4:
New in 2.3.3 So this probably fixes it..the firefox app already loaded the image part by part and did not have the blurry issue..it's just that firefox is so slow to boot up...

Graphics

A new BitmapRegionDecoder class lets applications decode a rectangle region from an image. The API is particularly useful when an original image is large and and the application only need parts of the image.

A new inPreferQualityOverSpeed field in BitmapFactory.Options allows applications to use a more accurate but slightly slower IDCT method in JPEG decode. This in turn improves the quality of the reconstructed image.

Android, is it really 'safe' to run on topaz with haret.exe?

Not really.

I know people will say "dude, dont test builds out if you are scared. I love android". I do love topaz android too. i hope this will help to prolong your topaz's hardware lifespan.

Possible hardware damage caused by buggy topaz android

1. Battery

2. sdcard

3. Possibly decrease in performance in other parts of the phone

Why is current buggy state of android harmful to topaz? Well,

1. constand read/write on sdcard with constant power supplied(never shuts off for power saving) - decrease life span of sdcard

2. Li-ion battery SHOULD NOT BE SUBJECTED to high drain situations if possible. This will decrease battery capacity significantly.Currently, battery drain is significant, due to unnecessary devices are left turned on etc.

3. Carging while high drain situation with BUGGY BATTERY METTER can stress our battery significantly even if there is protecting ic chip to protect battery from overcharging.

The problem is : Heat

Li-ion batteries lose their capacity if subjected to high temperature. Charging it is just suppling heat to our poor topaz battery, since battery will function like resistor ;D note topaz cannot directly be powered from usb. i.e. power socket->battery->topaz not power socket->topaz

4.Heat makes other parts of system subjected to lower lifespan and possibly, damage them

5. Remember android on topaz currently dont have 100 percent control over hardware, meaning unnecessary stuff can be running at all times.

Suggested way of using android on topaz

1. Have at least two batteries and swap them as you use topaz for both normal and android situations. This is good for li-ion batteries in general

2.Do not charge while you use topaz and if possible, stop it before battery is lower than 40%. In anycase, do not let it shut down because of low battery. If you really want to charge, consider downclock/full radio off/screen off to try to minimise stress battery goes through.

3. If possible, run android in cool, shady environment like your bedroom (:P)

4. Try to minimise running test builds like branch of test build for camera . This may stress your phones hardware unknowingly.

5. Becareful of android corrupting your sdcard anytime. Unknowingly, it performs a lot of read and write which is not recommended for flash memory in general.(sd cards are not ssd people)

6. Dont game or run benchmarks as much as possible

That is it. This guide applies to haret-android devices in general.

This guide will not be needed as much in situation of:

1. Nand build

2. Ram-mounted android build ( still danger of fring your sd card )

3. properly calibrated battery meter

provided their builds are stable and not as stressful as current build.

Happy android-ing. XD

Post your feedback. Please dont post things like I should not try it etc. This is just tips ,come on.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] Corwen:
Yeah I've definitely thought about how bad the heat is for the battery and the phone itself

But I'm running it on a pure, so I almost don't care if I destroy my phone in the process. Would just give me an excuse to switch over to verizon for a droid or pick up an iPhone.

Good guide for newbs
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] 88crows:
I'm alxo running XD Android on my pure, but mostly just for the novelty.. Should I be switching batteries every time I want to run android? Should We all just wait for a flashable droid rom?

Does haret run on top of windows?

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] squarememory:
Umm just to clarify

1. you do not need to set aside android battery. Just swap whenever possible even when running winmo. 2 Li-ion can last 3 years instead of 1 year for 1 battery

2. no. android is stand alone os

3. enjoy your android. Nand build is comming as DFT decided to port HD2 android boot utilites to Topaz and Rhoium. XD

hello

I have the european rom on my i9000 and would like to change it to the stock arab rom or other non-stock rom that based on the arab rom from many reasons. When i finish to flash it, i have no market and some problems like many close forces etc, im aware that i need to make a factory reset after the flash but it still don't work.

In the past i had the arab rom but since i chanhed it to the european rom i can't go back...

what can i do to change back to the arab rom that will work ok?

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dadyal:
you can copy paste vending.apk file from European rom to arab rom with root explorer (rooted phone) to system/app folder

and i think jpjpg is very stable with voodoo lagfix
[Galaxy S I9000 General] angiogram:
Hi shirhh. What I did was flashed to JPJPA first with pit and re-partition check (I got three files on JPJPA).Then on the phone dialer type *#272*your imei# and change the suitable csc (maybe can try XSG if I'm not wrong). The vending.apk is there, because you are from european rom so the csc was check wrongly and hidden. Do not install anything yet because this method will do hard reset on your phone. Then flash to JPJPG without pit and re-partition if its contain one file only.

Its work for me, hopefully its works for you too. Good luck

[Fascinate General] AlgorithmX:
Remove the battery, place the phone in a zip loc bag with a dessicant pouch. Close the bag and let it sit overnight or longer.
[Fascinate General] ChrisDDD:
I did the exact same thing to my iPhone, and it too survived. I had to totally disassemble it to get all the water out, but it still works to this day.

As was said, put it in a zip lock bag with a desiccant. If you don't have any real desiccant pouch, you could use rice - just put the phone in the bag and fill it with rice. That'll absorb any moisture. Might take a little longer for the harder to reach spots like inside the camera.

Hey Guys,

Recently some salt water manage to get in my Samsung Galaxy S while i was fishing. Ive open my phone and clean as much corrosion as possible. Now I've notice that somethings are starting to fail on me in the past few hours :( My accelerometer, Charging port, 3.5mm head jacks, screen is all good and sim card slot. I can call out but cant take calls in. Chances are the corrosion can finish my phone off for good, in a few months time.

I was thinking if i can buy, new replacement parts or even the whole samsung galaxy s board ? and if any please link.

thank you, kindly appreciated
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iammodo:
only level 3 services centre can get new boards but then you also need to write an IMEI to it and print out a new IEMI sticker so not something that can be done. buy a broken screen galaxy s from ebay and swap screens.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AshleySear:
I'm sorry for your unscheduled swim.

Frankly,salt water damage is about as bad as it gets-anything depending upon capacitance or resistance will ultimately be affected by the salt.

In my opinion the whole phone is either now or soon will become erratic-even if you swap your screen into an ebay broken screen replacement as suggested I feel the screen from your current phone will deteriorate quickly so you may be sending good money after bad.

I think it's bite the bullet time

Best Wishes

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w98seeng:
Not as a whole phone, maybe for parts, but you would have to mention the salt water damage otherwise it would be fraudulent.

Some times things happen that are just plain accidents and most likely, like AshleySear said, it's bite the bullet time time.

Maybe look around eBay for a used phone, or wait for the new Galaxy S 2.
