[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00kiejones:
The post titled easiest way to fix gps (I think) worked great for me but you have to do it in the middle of your work on installing rom. you need msl for this use connectbot open local session (check box default is ssh) type getprop | grep MSL (mind the caps) it will return with your msl, if it errors on grep you dont have busybox yet just type getprop and look for the line [ril.MSL] write down 6 digit number.

Odin to DK28 (I assume thats what you are using)

Boot phone you dont need to sign into google yet or worry about handsfree activation.

Go to dialer hit ##786# you will get rtn menu hit reset enter msl let it do its thing

Next run the one click root.

*EXT4 only* Boot to CWM (volume down camera power AKA 3 finger) allow it to do its thing.

Then apply rom of choice.

You can also nandroid backup (backup option in CWM) then do the ##786# step then restore nandroid however this only worked 1 time for me after that restoring backup breaks gps again.

If you are already rommed ##786# will screw up your rom makes it like half stock half rom. I very much recommend starting from scratch with this method as to not screw with the hard work of the devs and make you think their rom is crap.

Hi everyone

Does someone can explain the differences between base Rom versions :

1.36, 1.38 and 1.41 ?

Why is Maryone the only Rom based on 1.41 ?

Thank's for your explanations.
[HD Mini General] Rocket Chef:
1.41 is based on Vodafone ROM (branded)

1.38 i think it's from O2

1.36 the last free ROM
[HD Mini General] francois64:
Ok for the origin but what's about differences ?

I have a rooted p500 with custom recovery and milk os touch lag kernel . When 2.3 will appear i'll receive it ? or should i restore the backup to receive it ?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] vikkisah:
Hi, i guess if the update is out for our optimus dan just go back to ur original firmware and unroot it..and ur ready for official update.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
You should got official update on every ROM, because every is based on some original one and update is checked by serial number of phone, not by version of ROM. If you have different ROM, then you should receive update.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] romanuculg:
There is no rom . Just root and milk os kernel . ROM is stock.

Hey guys,

weired question...

My x10 MP doesn't vibrate when I receive a SMS.

Yes, I know there is an option in the SMS app that enables the vibration, it's on :(

Also, is it possible to receive a notification of a new SMS without showing the first 50 letters of the SMS on the notification bar?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] farsight73:
Same here, mine also no vibrate on sms and emails alert..

But it does vibrate with incoming calls if I put the phone in vibrate mode.

Not sure what fault it is, everything seemed setting right in the setting menu.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] djx24:
Finally I figure it out!

Step 1 install handcent sms

Step 2 go to your sms configurations and make sure that the vibration notification isn't check!

Step 3 uninstall handcent sms.

Step 4 go to your sms configurations and make sure that the vibration notification it's check!

It works \o/
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] farsight73:
I got it working too..

Installed AudioManager and set notification alert vibrate box checked and everythings worked as it should be.

Just wonder why it did't work when everything is in default setting(no 3rd party sound/audio app installed) with Alert vibrate checked.

It must be the firmware default bug...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] spence91:
Do you think there's a way to activate it without installing something beforehand?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] djx24:
I don't know, because the initial problem was (i think) caused by handcent
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] farsight73:
On my issue, I didn't install any 3rd party sms but still the vibrate don't work. Until I installed this audio manager and solved..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] danielnohai:
It works :D

I don't know what caused the problem, but the Handcent SMS seemed to work.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flo95:
Hello @ all,

some users requested a tutorial and a list of the junk apps for the new firmware.

So I post it for you ;)

How to delete the junk apps:

Go into "system/app" with Root Explorer, in that folder are all the junk apps. Now press "Mount R/W". Now you can delete the junk apps one by one or multi-select them. To have a backup of the apps, we move them to the sd card. it's good to make a folder called "2.1.A.0.435 Junk Apps" on your sd card.

Now select the apps, press move and go to the sd card and to the folder "2.1.A.0.435 Junk Apps" now press paste. Done.

List of the junk apps:

- backupandrestore.apk (Titanium Backup is better)

- chinesetextinput.apk (chinese keyboard)

- creatouch-wvga.apk (creatouch app)

- facebook.apk (download the new version with chat from the market)

- FaceRecognition.apk (Face Recognition is still working after removing the app)

- JapaneseIME.apk (japanes keyboard)

- LatinIME.apk (android keyboard, I prefer the one from se)

- LearningClient.apk (learns your words, not needed)

- moxiermail.apk (Moxier)

- Music.apk (we can't use it, Visualization Live Wallpapers won't work anymore after removing this, thanks to Farhang for the info)

- neoreader.apk (Barcode Scanner is better)

- officesuite.apk (I don't needed, heard there better offices in the Market)

- OMAClientProvisioning.apk (-)

- PcCompanion.apk (wants to install Pc Compnaion when connecting to USB)

- playnowappinstaller.apk (belongs to Play Now)

- playnowback.apk (belongsPlay Now)

- playnowclient.apk (belongs to Play Now)

- qcsemcservice.apk (-)

- quadrapop.apk (Quadrapop, there are better games)

- SemcCheckin.apk (-)

- SemcHomeL.apk (Home Launcher, only deleted it, when you have another launcher installed!!)

- SEMCSetupWizard.apk (sets the phone after an update, you just need it once)

- SEMCTouchPalKoreanQWERTY.apk (korean keyboard)

- SetupWizard.apk (belongs to SEMCSetupWizard.apk)

- SnsContactImageCacheProvider.apk (-)

- Timescape, following apps belong to Timescape:

- TimescapeLargeUI.apk

- TimescapeLargeUIThemeBlue.apk

- TimescapeLargeUIThemeGreen.apk

- TimescapeLargeUIThemeIndigo.apk

- TimescapeLargeUIThemeOrange.apk

- TimescapeLargeUIThemeSakura.apk

- TimescapePluginManager.apk

- TimeScapeProvider.apk

- touchnote.apk (the postcard app, who needs that :confused:)

- usersupport.apk (usersupport)

- uWlopProvider.apk (-)

- wisepilot.apk (I use google navigation)

Update:

Sync, these 3 files: (By removing these 3 files you get 10.3MB more free RAM)

- OmaDatasyncService.apk

- Sync.apk

- SyncWizard.apk

Sim Tool Kit:

- Stk.apk

Update:

- AlarmClock.apk (Alarm, I'm using an alarm that can play my mp3 songs.)

- trackid.apk (TrackID, Soundhound is better)

I've deleted all these apps and now my X10 is faster and smoother.

Do this at your own risk. I'm not responsilbe for any damage at your X10!

When it helped you, please press "Thanks"

Regards

Flo

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Farhang:
SemcCheckin and qcsemcservice.apk are both for sending crashing info to Sony Ericsson servers and have nothing to do with the Market.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bwyan Benton:
I've had those frozen forever....never caused me an issue. Maybe its time to get delete happy tonight lol
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javagreen:
I know that ;)

I'm just narrating the behavior I've observed on my own phone, YMMV. No amount of cleaning caches and reboots helped, it still routinely crashed on boot and more times subsequently as the system tried to start the market service. And also crashed instantly when I attempted to launch it on my own.

The FC's and crashes stopped the moment I restored that *specific* service. Perhaps it was something with my phone I suppose.

nice one!

ps: i also removed the rubbish live wallpapers like magic smoke and music viz. SO FAR no bad effects from removing simtoolkit or any of the other apps.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz@gmx.co.uk:
I find this useful still if i do a fresh install of 2.1, but i think the files have changed/updated a bit since this list was first produced for .435f/w (for example - video edit, neither this list or Renderios' list mention this - but i assum if you remove MediaScape you can lose this too!?).

I struggle sometimes as i prefer to use flashtool to "clean" but these lists have different names to what appears on Flashtool (apk/package names i think!?).

Also there are a few files that i am still not sure of, for example

(this is how it appears in Root Explorer)

device-monitor.apk

ReadyToRun.apk

PicoTts.apk & TtsService.apk

VpnServices.apk

SocialServiceSetting.apk

SnsContactImageCacheProviser.apk

CdInfoAccessor.apk

Can anyone confirm these? - if so it would be beneficial (imo) to put an updated "safelist" ??

Anyway - thanks again Flo, as i said - i still use this guide ;)

Can we have this as an update.zip? I tend to re-flash my device and using ADB each time is a pain.
[G Tablet Android Development] rfisher1968:
I did it using Dolphin browser, Rootexplorer, Unrar. I downloaded the file to /sdcard/download directory using Dolphin Browser. Using Unrar got the lib file. I renamed the original file with .old at the end with Rootexplorer. Then copied the file to the /system/lib/ directory using Rootexplorer. Then changed the permissions to match the original with Rootexplorer. Then i rebooted, it took about 5 minutes.
[G Tablet Android Development] Blades:
If you reflash your device all the time, then take the libsqlite.so and insert it into the update zip that you intend to flash. On my g2, I made a script that unzips the latest cm7 nightly, removes a couple files, throws in my intended keychars and keylayouts, modifies the build.prop lcd.density to my liking and rezips it up, ready to flash. I just did this libsqlite.so using term emu and unrar.

cd /system/lib

pwd

mv libsqlite.so libsqlite.so.bak

cp /sdcard/unrar/libsqlite.so ./

So I just noticed that the G Tablet is no longer listed at Sears, Staples, and Kmart online hope this doesnt mean anything bad for the future of the gtab.

still there

I'm still seeing it on amazon.com and Kmart's site.
[G Tablet General] machine73:
I noticed that myself. If you follow the "purchase online" link from Viewsonic, all links show not available. I did talk to a rep @ my local Office Depot who said he just received 6 more on his last order that stated "final shipment". They are now directed to order the VIEWPAD 10 which is the dual boot W7/ android version.

Makes me wonder if Viewsonic is halting production on the GTab.
[G Tablet General] dragonfly1113:
Def not listed on kmarts website. unless you are mistaking it for another device, and as said in previous post on viewsonics website they arent showing it listed anywhere either. as for that dual boot tablet that seems cool but last i heard it was running 1.6 which is just not acceptable.

[G Tablet General] dragonfly1113:
Good to see that it is still on some shelves but it is a little scary that it looks like they are dropping it since noone is carrying it anymore, even though we have the best devs out there with the gtab in hands doing ground breaking work every day on xda :)
[G Tablet General] machine73:

[G Tablet General] machine73:
*UPDATE 2*

Just got off the phone w/ Viewsonic. Production has NOT been halted on the GTab's. Rep was only able to find it available at Sears. Nowhere else. What "might" be causing the problem is guys like us buying up all the stock from local retailers.

I was told that K-Mart especially will pull links to products that are out of stock to prevent surplus back orders.

We'll just have to keep an eye open for future developments.

Those links still do not produce a Gtab for purchase.

Compare:

Vpad10 http://www.viewsonic.com/products/vpad10.htm

The Rep @ VS had no explanation as to why those links were pulled from the Gtab site.
[G Tablet General] rushless:
The Gtablet has always been a stepping stone, so if it has vanished, the issue now is will the VP at Viewsonic that told us of the continued support and software updates still hold true?

BTW, the Viewpad is inferior for a few reasons for Android:

1. A lot less battery life due to Atom cpu and required fan.

2. Windows overhead

3. Android boot mode is 1.6 only

4. Atom CPU may never get support higher than 1.6, since Microsoft is pushing for the newer chipset to be used in tablets. Do not let OEM try to BS you that 2.1, yet alone 2.2 or higher is coming- Too late in the chipset curve to bother.

For an Android device and the combination of power and battery life- the Gtablet is FAR better than the Viewpad.

BTW, the current Atom based Viewpad is a stepping stone as well.
[G Tablet General] trscons:
While the area Staples stores do not have the gTablets any longer, my local store's tech person told me this afternoon he "expects to have them back in stock soon." No details but then there never are about tech stuff availability when not in the store or computer. We shall see.

[G Tablet General] tyy10002:
it is the reality I guess, whether stores/sites still selling gtab or not, in the next few months, people won't buy it anyways. There are more better tablets (at least on the paper) coming in next few months with a similar price points such as ASUS, Elocity A10, etc. Unless Viewsonic decides to upgrade the model with a better screen, better software, etc.. I don't see how gtab can compete with others if the price is still around $350 - $400..

On the positive side, the hardware is still good enough to run the next android OS (honeycomb). I will be very satisfied if I can get honeycomb on my gtab and it can last a year..

Just my 2 cents.
[G Tablet General] stanglx:
That is not the g-tablet.. its the viewpad.. its different. Sears did sell both.

No, it's the G-tablet. There were discussions here in late Nov/early December about this very subject, and the fact that Sears has the specs for the viewpad on the G-Tablet page.

I'm willing to bet that they will be discontinued shortly if they have not already. In just the past month there are now only a 1/4 of the amount of gtabs being sold on ebay and they are mostly used instead of new while before they were mostly new.
