is it possible to make a .504 build ROM version? :D

You know, damn updates aren't available yet in my country...

If not, that's all right. Anyway the theme looks cool for us who like the default blue theme.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] kalel29:
Y por que no flasheas con la rom que esta posteada por aqui,para que tengas la actualizacion????? Es mas facil que estar esperando,al cabo es lo mismo.

why dont you flash with the rom that its posted here??? you dont have to wait till the actualization comes,its easier instead of waiting for it,at the end,its the same.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] 28spawn:

I agree, I was pissed when SE switched to that dull looking theme and X10 contrast didn't make it look any good!

Thank you for uploading the xrecovery zip. Have you tested the custom zip? Ill ask the admin to add it to the first post once it is confirmed to work without glitches;-)

Using: ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.0

Completely powering off and/or rebooting system from recovery, keep getting stuck back into recovery and cannot get anything to boot, even after restoring the very first backup I made.

Error is: E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

What I did:

1: Rooted using this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=808103

2: Booted into ClockWorkMod Recovery and made a backup.

3. Wiped cache/data and tried flashing midNIGHT midNIGHT ROM v3.2 CW3/EXT4 AIO (Build Your Own ROM Edition UPDATED) from here: http://lostandtired.com/android-development (it seemed to install just fine!)

4. Tried to boot but it would not go past the Samsung boot logo

5. Yanked battery, reinstalled, same problem.

6. Wiped again, tried to restore backup, now it automatically boots into recovery and shows this error at the bottom.

Please help!

EDIT:

When I try to restore a backup (that I made before doing anything) It says:

Please help me, I will pay you!

I just got this phone a few days ago... so I'm freaking out right now!

EDIT: I just installed Odin and booted into "download mode" -- downloading the stock tar now... I hope this takes care of it
[Epic 4G General] Ryjabo:
Problem solved.

Odin FTW!!!
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
Your problem was that you flashed an ext4 only rom in rfs. You need to convert file systems to use midnight.

As you figured out, Odin puts everything back to stock.

Also, the nandroid backup and restore does not restore your kernel. If you are using to to restore, make sure you have a kernel on the sdcard to flash.
[Epic 4G General] meet3298:
It must be going around

Man I am having the same problem you did I want to know where did you get your odin file from mine says it is installed but I dont see where to open it. I had my epic for about 3wks going crazy as well need your help but very optimistic :confused:
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
What are you trying to open?

If odin flashed your phone, then just turn the phone on and you have the rom that odin flashed.

[Epic 4G General] twig123:
OMG, I thought I bricked my phone... thankfully I stumbled across this thread and also this video on youtube: /watch?v=pleE_tzmiMo

I was trying to install midNIGHT ROM when this happened... I guess I need to read futher on how to properly install the ROM (Unless someone has a quick hint as to what I need to make it work)

With Odin, It will restore back to the factory firmware and work just fine, but If I re-root the phone and try to restore my nandroid backup it just hangs at the Samsung screen again. Any ideas?
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
just advanced restore /data and see if that gets around what is causing your phone to hang. Were you running a rom when you did the backup? You may need to reflash that rom, then advanced restore /data.

And get cwm 3 to flash midnight and other ext4 roms. There is a different one-click just for that after you do the one-click v2.5.5.
[Epic 4G General] twig123:
Do you have links to cwm3 and the one-click that you mentioned?

This is my first attempt at flashing the EPIC, so my backup was not a modified rom. (When I had my Hero I had no issues at all flashing a custom rom)

When this happens I am have to reflash with odin back to stock firmware, as my backups don't work for some reason. Strangely if I try to restore my nandroid backup after the stock firmware is back on there, I get the same results of it hanging on the samsung screen.
[Epic 4G General] mikey80021:
Yes, as has been mentioned, if you're going to a rom that uses the ext filesystem, you have to use the cwm3. I don't have the link., but if you look up "Randy Shear" on youtube, he has a video posted on how to install it.

Also try enabling usb debugging and attempt to mount your phone to your pc again.

If you are experiencing sms or mms problems it may be due to an outdated radio, however since you didn't report any issues if the sort I don't believe the radio is your issue.

[Vibrant General] BorisZX6R:
I am a T-Mobile customer and I am using a Samsung Vibrant.

Before I contact T-Mobile customer service for an unlock code for the Vibrant I wanted to verify some stuff.

The Vibrant was on stock 2.1 then it was updated to stock 2.2 (KA6) via Kies Mini, at some point it was rooted and a voodoo injected stock kernel was flashed using Odin, after that I flashed back to stock JFD using Odin and updated to stock 2.2 (KA6) via kies mini, and now I am on stock 2.2, no root, no lagfix, nothing...

If I get the unlock code from T-Mobile and I manage to unlock the device, what would happen if I flash back to stock JFD for whatever reason or flash some custom ROM ?!

Would the unlock remain intact? If no would I be able to use the same unlock code to unlock it again?

Thank you.

[Vibrant General] Mannymal:
The unlock should remain.
[Vibrant General] pvspencer22:

I would go for this method.

For some reason when I asked for the unlock code when I still had my nexus they refused to give it to me. Probably didn't know what in the bloody hell I was talking about.

hate that about customer service reps.
[Vibrant General] emonero:
If you had the phone for more thn 3 months they will give you the code without any issues...
[Vibrant General] WilliamKingX17:
Just go into the Market and search for the SGS Unlock App. It gets your unlock code automatically for you. With the GSM Galaxy S devices the unlock codes were loaded onto the devices, and somebody created an app to exploit it so there ya go.

Sent from my Vibrant running GingerCloneR2
[Vibrant General] pvspencer22:
There are multiple threads right now about unlocking. You can do it yourself and there are several methods, just search.
[Vibrant General] BorisZX6R:
To be honest I read several times that the market application only worked for those who used it on JFD, once upgraded to JI6 it would not work. Right now I am on KA6.

I am a T-Mobile customer and have been for a while and in the past I requested the unlock code for other phones at least 3-4 times and always got it within a day or two... so I see no reason why I would fiddle with any other method if I can get it from the source...
[Vibrant General] pvspencer22:
What are you waiting for then? :-)
[Vibrant General] BorisZX6R:
Yesterday I placed a call to T-Mobile and requested an unlock code. Today within 20 hrs. from the request I received an email with the unlock code.

I requested codes before for other phones and I gotta say this was the fastest response by far for me.

So I rooted my Sprint Epic, changed the file system to EXT4 and installed Bonzai4All 2.0.1

It all runs like butter and I get benchmarks around 2000. Nice.

For some reason the external SD card was not recongnized the first couple of times after the install, so I assumed it also formatted the card EXT4, but now (after a couple of times snapping it back in and out) I see the SD card recognized in windows again...

I'm assuming this disk format change is only to the internal memory?

The issue was that the first couple of times my sd card interacted with my computer, either through the phone or directly plugged, it would not read. At all.

That's when my question was written...

At this point the sd card is recognized with no problem, so it all made sense when that happened.

Thanks so much for helping.
[XPERIA X10 General] awojtas:
I wanted to work out the size of the X10i's camera sensor. I believe it is very small and is not actually 8mp.

We can't know exactly how many megapixels it is for real, but the sensor size is a very good indicator of sensitivity and image quality.

So. What we do know:

- Focal length: 4.7mm

- Aperture: f2.8

What we need to know:

- Diagonal sensor size.

- 35mm equivalent ratio

I compared the image framing with my Canon APS-C SLR. The closest I can match is around 21mm focal length (34mm equivalent). It's harder because the X10i is 4:3 not 3:2.

The sensor size is 35mm/4.7mm = 7.446 x smaller than a 35mm sensor.

A 35mm sensor is 36mm x 24mm with a 43.266mm diameter.

Divide by 7.446 to get the X10i's sensor.

X10i sensor: 5.81mm diameter (0.229").

To find the closest match I refer to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_sensor_format#Table_of_sensor_sizes

Leading us to:

About 1/3.2" sensor.

Googling for similar sensors, you can find for example Micron make a 5mp sensor that matches the same characteristics as our X10i, i.e. 15fps preview and 30fps video:

www.aptina.com/assets/downloadDocument.do?id=178

A normal compact camera is about 1/2.3", a premium compact camera is around 1/1.7" and a DSLR is about 1.05".

So the X10i has a small sensor, a poor quality (no Carl Zeiss here) and is trying to make 8megapixels. No wonder it struggles sometimes!
[XPERIA X10 General] awojtas:
Doing more Googling, it's possible the sensor is the ISX006 made by Sony here:

http://www.sony.net/Products/SC-HP/cx_news/vol59/np_isx005_006.html

- 5mp

- "Exmor"

- 720p video (actually, 1080p! but snapdragon may not cope...)
[XPERIA X10 General] Timbits93:
I'm pretty sure that the X10 doesn't utilize that sensor due to the fact that it doesn't specify the sensor to be an Exmor sensor [2011 Xperia models express it though]
[XPERIA X10 General] Hikaru Kaze:
Exmor is different from Exmor R..

Exmor R is back-illuminated CMOS sensor.. it's used for better capturing lowlight images as the sensor receive more light with back-illuminated design.

while Exmor is fast speed CMOS sensor, for capturing image at faster speed, lower noise and low power dissipation..

check Exmor here: http://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/technology/technology/theme/cmos_01.html

Hello, I'm pretty new here because I'm just wanna join the Android community :D

I read many post about Wildfire and LG P500, but my situation is a bit different.

Currently I decide to buy a brandnew LG P500 with around 250$, the phone I found best suite for a newcomer like me, decent CPU, nice RAM and Android support.

Just yesterday, my friend have a HTC Wildfire he bought 3 month ago and wanna sell it to buy another higher-end phone, he sold it around 30-50$ lower than P500.

I have a hard time consider to buy which one, P500 has far better spec, but HTC has some more brandname, with more community ROMs support

I searched on Youtube and found that P500 works with NFS Shift game, and Wildfire doesn't (so P500 should have far better hardware with 3D right ? )

What should I buy, please help for me. This is my first post in the forum, wish that I'll join more later :)

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djak420:
I am living in Canada, and all galaxy tab available in this country is P1000 which has the frequency band of HSDPA 900 / 1900 / 2100.

But I am in Mobilicity which uses AWS(1700/2100) network like T-Mobile. Therefore, I can't use galaxy tab with my provider.

Is there any possible way I can change the frequency of galaxy tab P1000 to 1700 / 2100 ???

Please~~ anybody has an idea? if it is a software issue, at least I can try~

p.s

if it is impossible, anyone knows a shopping website sells a used t-mobile galaxy tab with shipping at Canada???
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gspajon:
I have a very similar issue. I bought a T-mobile tab in California with the promise that it would work in Mexico. What that promise was the truth it wasn't the whole truth.

Mexico's 3g system is in a frequency of 850/1900 mhz. The T-Mobile device is on 1700 mhz. I realize that frequencies are a function of physical antenna length but they can also be tuned (as a radio receiver) which is what a cell phone really is.

Is there a way to tune the receiver part to correctly function on a different frequency?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
You two should trade tabs.

T-mobile uses 2100/1700 aws and cannot be changed to other data frequencies. So the best you get is EDGE.

Also, T-mobile tabs have to use both frequencies, so they don't get 3g in places that use only 2100.

At&t uses 1900/850 and cannot be changed either. There are tabs that use 1900/900.

The only quad band tab is the unlocked no carrier version.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
I use an at&t tab in Mexico with a Telcel sim card and get 3g. When I used a t-mobile tab, I only got EDGE with both aTelcel and a Movistar sim card.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
You can try amazon.com.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gspajon:
Thank you for your response. In my case I cheaped out and bought T-mobile due to its price and the promise of receiving an unlock code. I was ignorant of the frequency issue until now...too late.

So now another question arrises. Since these devices are basically radios, wouldn't it be possible to write a piece of software that is essentially an antena tuner? Remembering my boyhood electonics (ham studies) it seems to me that any size radio antena can be "tuned" to the correct frequency with the right equipment. Or perhaps an after market hardware that utilizes the USB input port?

Just "spitballing" here but it seems to be an idea worth some money considering all of us who want more out of our devices. Any thoughts?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GldRush98:
Yeah, buy the device with the right hardware for your carrier.

It's a hardware limitation. No piece of software will ever be capable of fixing it on earth. The hardware is not physically capable of those frequencies.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
These devices are digital. When you went to school the radio technology was analog, and you could tune anntenas, but with digital, the wave is fixed only to the built in values, so no tuning possible.

Trading is easier.

@gspajon:

I use a Telcel Amigo sim in a t-mobile tab and a month to month data plan, 3 gigs of data and unlimited voice, for $30, and I can pay the bill through a website, or at any OXXO. The Telcel EDGE is pretty fast for surfing and navigating, and sending/receiving attachments. I can live with it.
