Sounds like you're using CWM3.

Try any older version.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete_kowalski83:
This is wat it sounds like
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NilsP:
If you are using ClockWorkMod v3 and tring to do a fresh install with a cwm3 capable ROM it could be a problem. Seems like cwm3 acts a little funny. Or you could be on cwm-v2 and trying to install a cwmv3 ROM and that does not work.

So the key is use cwm 2.5.1.2 and a cwm-v2 Z ROM

Well i just had this question because i was planning on installing ubuntu 10.10 on my android phone which is OCed to 1.2 ghz stable so i was thinking if i could play games on Ubuntu through wine but the problem is that my phone has touch screen and not a physical keyboard so how can i control the games? is there an onscreen transparent keyboard in ubuntu or something?

no reply???

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] enp82003:
I am not to sure if wine works with the linux builds that runs on the arm cpu, But if it does I am sure it would run at really slow speeds if anything... If it was possible you would of heard about pc gaming on droid because that's a huge feat... but again you never know...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shad0wboss:
droid is a slow phone lol...but ive seen ppl running wine on ubuntu 10.10 which is normal version..the only thing i wanna know that how do u actually operate linux on touchh...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Deleted member 3029789:
It is possible to install Ubuntu, but it is a pain in the butt to control.

I can't see any reason to install it, but for the lulz.

The only chance I see on PC gaming on Android, is the Onlive app, which is already on the iPad. HTC just gave (donated, bought, I dunno) Onlive ALOT of money, so they MIGHT make it for Android.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] deathsled:
with your finger of course. It will be a mouse of sorts. It sounds like you're realizing one of the greater limitations: control.

Ubuntu is not designed for mobile phones and as such doesn't have handy onscreen keyboards like you expect from a mobile phone OS. You'll probably be needing a bluetooth keyboard (if it can still pair while running linux)

You're going to be sorely disappointed with gaming in Ubuntu on your phone. In fact you'll most likely be disappointed with Ubuntu in general on your phone. I would skip the whole mess.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shad0wboss:
hmm alright thanks !
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] F1R35T0RM:
lol as was said before doing that on a mobile phone isn't smart because of the lack of control
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xanaki:
Ok so I'm new to flashing a ROM, and Im having a little problem with ROM Manager. Ive been trying to make a backup of my current ROM prior to flashing to a new ROM. However when I choose the option to backup current ROM it shows me the name of the backup and then reboots my device (Samsung Captivate) into recovery mode. Not really sure what it wants me to do there so I choose to reboot the device, I then check to see if it made the backup and nothing??? Im not sure what it is that Im doing wrong but Im sure I must be missing a step. The phone is rooted, running 2.2 other than that nothing else has been moded. If any of you can help me I would appreciate it, I just dont want to move forward with flashing a ROM before Ive backed up the current ROM. I have made a backup of all apps and data using Titanium.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trekie86:
When it goes into recovery, is it the ClockWorkMod recovery menu? Green text? If it isn't getting there you need to install it from ROM manager first or just install it off an update.zip file that is floating around XDA and other sites. Once that is setup, you can run the backup through ROM Manager. It should boot into a recovery mode and then start doing a lot of writing of files to your new backup directory.

Post back if you are still having problems.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xanaki:
I did select the option for flashing ClockWorkMod recovery and chose the Captivate as my device. It did say that it sucessfully downloaded the file and Im assuming that it meant it installed it. And to answer your question I think I can safely say that no its not clockwork recovery when it reboots as it does say at the top of the screen "Android Recovery" so Im pretty sure that ClockWork is not installed. But I will look for that update.zip file and try to install it that way...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trekie86:
I'm sorry, you are looking for recovery-update.zip. I would try to run the ROM Manager install again and see what happens. I haven't had to play with the Android Recovery in quite some time but if the recovery-update.zip file is in the root of your sd card, you should be able to install it through the Android recovery. I'll keep looking. If I can find the file on my phone, i'll post it. Good luck.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mxracer101:
If this is your first time booting into CWM recovery it will go to the base recovery first. Then you need to "reinstall packages". That will replace the recovery file with the CWM recovery file and return to the main menu. Then choose reintall packages one more time and it should bring you to CWM recovery instead of the base one. From then on it should bring you directly to the CWM recovery.

As for the backup it's done from CWM recovery. So once you get thru the steps above you will see backup and restore options on the recovery menu and you can go thru that process.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trekie86:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xanaki:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xanaki:
Ok still having a problem, I followed the instructions just as posted but this is what I get:

-- Install from sdcard --

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted.

Ok so what do I do? Im thinking I need to find that recovery-update.zip you were talking about?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trekie86:
That update.zip should have been placed there by ROM Manager. Possibly try uninstalling & reinstalling ROM manager. Else, that update.zip should be somewhere. I'd grab the one off my phone but I'm not entirely sure which one it is. My ROM already had CWM with it. I'll try to look for a correct update.zip but I'm at work so I'm not going through XDA all day.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trekie86:
You're right, I did miss that. Haven't had to do anything with 3e recovery before. Xanaki, are you on Rogers with their official 2.2 or the leaked AT&T 2.2?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mxracer101:
I missed it too. The above post regarding 3e recovery is what you need to do, one of the phones I have I need to do the same process after flashing back to stock. Sorry for the confusion.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] talbtimber:
Been having a similar issue when it takes you to stock recovery, I hold down both volume buttons and power until I see AT&T let go of power it usually takes me to clockwork recovery menu, I then select whatever I want to do backup, recover, or install from sd.

I don't know why it started doing that but that's what I found works. Hope it helps.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xanaki:
Im on the leaked AT&T version of 2.2 not Rogers. I haven't had the chance yet to try the recovery method mentioned but I plan on doing so today, I will update as to if this works or not. Also I did read somewhere that flashing a new Kernal might resolve this issue, I do have SGS Kernal Flasher but I dont have another Kernal to flash to...
[Windows Phone 7 General] legbuh:
One thing I really liked about my Nexus One was when I was on a web page and I zoomed text, it would autofit it (left to right) on the screen.

That way if I needed to make the text a little bigger I could in order to easily read it.

This didn't work 100%, it was more like when the text was in it's own table cell. But that's still 90% of the text out there.

With WP7, I notice this feature does not exist. Some pages are quite hard to read (even landscaped) when they fit.. and shifting left to right for each line is a bugger.

Anyone heard if this is going to be added to the browser functionality?
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
android is the unique os that does this. even on iOS, it performs the same as WP. if you want this feature, i'd suggest recommending it to windowsphone via twitter, or on social.microsoft.com, but i doubt you'll get much response about it apart from "we will pass it on".
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Text reflow, nope haven't heard a word about it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
What? WM6.5 did this just fine on my HD2 also.

I'm not entirely sure if it's something we want brought over though. Sure, it is a great feature for some webpages, but IMO the majority displays fine (and readable) as is. I feel text reflow may cause more problems than it's worth in terms of browser performance. WP7 may not seem to load as fast as e.g. Android but if you are looking for information buried half way down the page I often find you get to it faster on WP7 anyhow - it doesn't seem to suffer from the same rendering lag as the droids. If this is directly connected to reflow or not I don't know, but I have a feeling it may be.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
you would of had it on your wm6.5 through opera? i was more referring to natively.

but yea i agree with you, most of the time reflow isn't needed.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rtomakov:
Did you mess around with radio rom (phone.bin)?

Try to reflash it with COMPLETE (phone,pda and csc) new ROM, official

if possible.

You said:

"key combined hard reset not work."

That part of device function (battery charging also) is controlled by phone

part of ROM (phone.bin), so, it seems that problem is caused by faulty phone.bin.

Reflash it!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sattar_00977:

[Desire General] Denver Hunter:
I have a friend who just got a desire from cellular south(I think this is the name, if not its very similar)

well somehow they have it blocked on the phone itself, from being able to tether at all because "they dont allow that on their network"

my question is this: if he were to get some custom ROM would he then be able to get tethering to work?

or maybe even just have it rooted and reverse whatever they did to block it?

any help on this would be greatly appreciated as he cannot get any other type of internet where he lives and wants to be able to use his ps3/xbox online
[Desire General] JustForFunn:
They probably only deleted the option to thetering in this shipped ROM.

So yes - sure its possible to re-enable this.

With an Costum ROM - or an thetering app and Root.

Maybe you should search the Market for such an app.
[General Topics] maxswisher:
So I am an avid google voice user, and I upgraded my incredible to the OMGB-6 ROM, and I don't know what's going on. There is no longer a Google Voice app in the Market (I guess it's not compatible with gingerbread yet) however every once and a while I will get a call from Google Voice that has the CORRECT caller ID and when I answer gives me all of those voicemail options. However, text messages arent going through at all, even though in my settings it is setup to forward the text messages to the phone. Please note that the account my phone is setup with is the same gmail account that I use to login to Google Voice.

What's going on here?

[Desire General] gl23leung:
Hi

is it possible to setup desire so that if I'm using it for gps navigation and a bluetooth headset for call, only call will go to the headset.while the navigate sound (eg turn left in 60m) goes to the phone speaker?
[Desire General] d10brp:
I don't think you can. It is my biggest annoyance with navigation.
[Desire General] gl23leung:
i have just figured it out.. after connecting the bluetooth headset, go to bluetooth settings, then at the bottom click and hold on your connected headset. select options. then in there you can select whether to transfer 'phone' and 'media' to bluetooth.

so my next question is that is there easy way to switch this instead of navigating thru multiple menus.
[Desire General] lax4mike:
Awesome, thanks for the media tip!

It's allllmost what I want. I want the navigation to come out of the phone if there is no music playing, and out of the bluetooth if there is music playing.

Or, more realistically, I want the navigation to always come out of the phone and the music to always go through bluetooth. I wish the bluetooth settings had "music" and "navigation" instead of "media"...

Also, the closest I've found to a shortcut is to the bluetooth settings...

How can I make sure that the icons, etc that I've downloaded have been saved to my ext SD card? I want to flash a new ROM but in the past the icons have been saved to my internal SD and lost them all.

If they are on my internal SD, how do I move them to my ext SD?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
1. If u r on 2.2 or 2.2.1 based ROMs, u wud have a folder called "external_sd" on ur sdcard folder. This folder forms the base of external sd.

2. Create a folder inside this.

3. Move ur data to this folder.

/ (root)

/..

/..

/sdcard (internal sd card)

/sdcard/..

/sdcard/..

/sdcard/external_sd (external sd card)

/sdcard/external_sd/..

/sdcard/external_sd/..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiltedthrower:
Okay, so they're saved on download. I have a file external_sd. When I long press on the zip file, I don't have the option to move the zip file. I do have the option to extract to a different directory. Do I just type in external_sd in the text box for extracting to the new directory and they'll get moved to the external sd?

...edit-I created an icon directory in the external_sd folder. I tried moving but am given no option where to move. When I click on move, it says it's moving but not to where.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
Depends on what u r using. I generally use root explorer. Let me check in File Manager.

1. I did a long press on a file (zip file) and I "move" is the 2nd option I see.

2. Once I select that, there is "move here" button on top.

3. Browse to the folder I want (in ur case icons folder on external_sd)

4. Clicked on "move here" (file got copied) (when u click 'move here', it moves to the folder u r currently in)

I don't think the inbuilt file manager has "unzipping" capability. Use something like zip manager (free) or root explorer (i use this, paid app).
