[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcghee1973:
yea you can get to recovery via adb

Im not that familiar with it but you need your phone in debug mode in settings>applications>development

open a cmd prompt and do adb recovery

you'll have to adb push the update.zip to your phone first and then do adb recovery to boot into recovery then reinstall packages

ya i got it to go into recovery with some adb bat recovery i found so im good im rooted thx neway dude im good

still hittin u with a thx for helpin out neway
[General Questions and Answers] jblz:
(EDIT: Apologies, the thread title should have stated this is relevant to the market(s))

I'm considering creating a series of applications, some of which contain a database of images thus making the final apk size quite large.

Does large file sizes for reference programs (when the user knows there will be a large amount of data involved) put them off downloading it or do people prefer having things pulled from a host? (or even having a small app size but then asking the user to install xx MB to there SD card?)

I suppose the best option would be to have an option for both.. but just want to know what other dev's have done in this situation.

(P.S - First post.. lurked here for a while but mainly been at modaco :p)
[General Questions and Answers] ErOR22:
Whats puts me off is when I want to buy a program and I know I will not be able to test it within 15 minutes because of the extra files needed after the install.

I'm not paying for something I can't test out, blame stupid Google for their 15 minutes refund policy.
[General Questions and Answers] lifesogreat:
i don't really like large size file
[General Questions and Answers] gavriel18:
why not pull the images from the interweb when the app opens?
[General Questions and Answers] copius:
It depends on what you mean by "large."

I don't want to spend time downloading an app that is a few hundred megs.

If it is only a few megs, I don't think of it as large though.

I'll also add that I don't want to download an app to find that I have to download more things to use it. If it is pulling data from a host, I don't want to experience any delays at all.
[General Questions and Answers] jblz:
Thanks for the responses but I think I ended up answering my own question in the first post - have the option for both.

The best option from a dev point of view is downloading the extra files first, then the reliability and speed of hosting isn't as much of an issue as people won't need to access these on demand.

As I'm typing this post a 4th option has also become apparent - download all the text data in the beginning and for each entry you can pull the image manually.

Some of the apps are most useful on the go (Think: Wine lists/database), making using their mobile data compulsory would put people off I think.

Thanks for the advice

P.S By large I mean less than 70mb, which I'd say is quite large for a phone app)

I have the Optimus S, a few days ago there was an update to the phone that seemed to overwrite many files, as well as made changes.

It also unrooted the phone in the progress.

So when I went to re-root the phone using Z4root it hangs or fails.

Tried installing and re-installing and still fails.

When booting app Z4root it says temp root, perm root and unroot options.

Also mentions that device already has SU binary.

Any ideas on a fix for this.

Thanks for any help.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eracet:
Just something that I noticed.

Super user is still installed on phone, but thinking maybe an uninstall of that and reroot may work.

Not really sure.

Also I am not sure how to uninstall it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] misfitpierce:
Go under apps and remove from there. Should let you. Also most updates I've had on my multiple android phones took root off or in the case of my current Galaxy S Vibrant it soft bricked my phone. Always good to take off root before updating as a precaution but that's up to you. Try removing then reapplying one click root and if that doesn't work you can maybe find a one click root from PC or get the update.zip file for root and install manually on phone like I did for galaxy. Can Google it. Just my 2 cents on the matter.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eracet:
Its listed under apps but uninstall is unavailable, only thing that is available is clear data.

I uninstalled Z4root from phone and reinstalled VIA SD card , because its off the android market. and no luck, gives me a option to temp root, perm root, and unroot. Every time it looks for the exploit it lags out .

Did this before posting here,

havent tried trying a different root option, but my guess is if they patched the exploit it just simply will not work atm.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] misfitpierce:
Yeah I read last galaxy s vibrant T-Mobile 2.2 update gave ppl probs with the z4 app as well. Ill try looking up alternative method for optimus s and if I find something before sleep I will post it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eracet:
I know that the Galaxy S and the Optimus seem to end up with same problems a lot, from what I have searched for , and seen with rooting and modifying.

So if you come across anything for the Galaxy it will probably work with the Optimus.

I will keep searching as well, and post if I find anything.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] misfitpierce:
Search these boards for superoneclick says it works on basically all froyo phones. Need windows pc with. Net framework installed. Instructions were all in the thread tho. Xda forum app wouldn't let me post link to thread or I dunno how in app. Try that and let me know.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eracet:
Tried superoneclick and it failed, everything looked good on install but when going back to phone , and trying Titanium backup. it says could not get root privileges.

Did Rageagainstthecage exploit.

One thing I notice is superuser cannot uninstall, thought maybe redoing that may do the trick. Uninstall is greyed out on app listing
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] misfitpierce:
Was gonna say look up terminal adb commands but you need su. Id just odin flash it stock or rom it personally but that's your call.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eracet:
Seems as though the problem is the last update actually "fixed" so it unroots the Optimus, no way to re-root atm.

Waiting now, I am sure someone will find a way to re-root.

hey i just figured it out that when we use apps like z4root to root mobiles n then something happens in middle or afterwards(like updates) when phone is rooted

It kills n overwrite those rooted files ... now those files are left in memory n u can not get rid of it until u format ur cell phone :(
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
OK, so my wifes MT4G arrived today, and I had it rooted and S-off after a remarkably short time. I then tried to do some research on the pre-installed apps, and which ones are safe to remove. I'm guessing most are OK to remove, but I'm surprised at the lack of info I've been able to find...

Are the apps tied into the framework, or can I just kill without fear? Not sure how T-Mo weave their tangled web...?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sac72679:
Ive search through numerous evo threads but found no answers. Ive been rooted for about a month and about 2 days ago I stopped being able to receive calls and texts, but I am able to connect to my google account and receive mail on wifi and 4g and I am able to make calls and send texts out on the network. Was using Calkulin's 1.8 rom when this happened.

I have an 003 evo, and I out the sprint lovers rom back on just to make sure it wasnt the rom,,still behaving the same.

I have updated PRL +Profile, flashed and reflashed a couple different roms.

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gzibell:
##3282# ,edit mode. Once your in there you have to find data. I am not on a sense rom and dont remember exactly where it is. Under advanced maybe..just look around. Once your in data hit menu, restore.

You have to know your msl to do this so get msl reader from the market first and write it down.

This also assumes your still on a sense rom.

Not positive itll work but its with a shot!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
The above method can still work, if you don't have one, you should flash a sense rom and make a backup of it just for these types of instances.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sum33th:
I literally *just* had this problem. It happened after I installed CM7, with exactly the problems you had. I flashed dozens of ROMs, wiped, radios, re-wiped, etc.: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=950922

I had to take it to a Sprint store to get it fixed. They said all they did was a hard reset -- but when I got my phone back, I noticed the HBOOT was back at 0.97 and the radios were out of date, on an August 2010 version.

I have no idea what they did to fix this. I hope someone here can expand on this, I would really like to know how I could go about fixing this on my own in case it happens again. Try giving them a call from a landline to see if they can get it fixed.

If you go the customer service route, make sure you un-root before you do anything (follow the 2-step guide). I rooted right after I got my phone back with no problems.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] co6alt:
Hey, I was wondering if there's any way to change the keyboard text input field on android 2.1. I have the honeycomb keyboard, but it doesn't matter what keyboard you install (better keyboard, the stock samsung, 8pen, stock 2.1....)

when you turn the phone sideways, the input field at the top covers up the whole screen- anything that the keyboard doesn't.

So, even when its just a small input bar for, say, a user name on a website, the entire top half of the screen turns into to input field.

When in portrait mode, you can click on just the google search bar and still see the rest of the page. But not in landscape.

I just would like to be able to see the rest of the page while typing. Anyone know how to do this/ mod this so its possible?

Thanks :)

I just did my first successful (I think) mod to TnT Lite 4.20 on the G Tablet. However, when I go to the app market and search for angry birds, adobe reader, etc. it says there are no matches? I can find them through the app market on my samsung phone so what could be the problem?

[G Tablet General] DeathCry:
Google recently did something so that angry birds will appear incompatible with the Gtab. The market fixes do not give us full market for MOST of us. Check the web version and try to install from there. If it doesn't let you it is considered incompatible and you will have to find the alkaline. Angry birds can be side loaded.
[G Tablet General] mlinder1958:
Well, I downloaded titanium backup and followed directions to wipe data but can't get the error message to appear, after which I am supposed to reboot. I still have the messed up market. What should itry now?
[G Tablet General] mlinder1958:
Despite not getting the error message I read about in the how to's, I rebooted and it does work better than before. However, the far right column with the star ratings is cutoff to where only 1/2 or so of one star is showing.

Can this be fixed?

Dear Developers

Is there a chance to have a Battle.net Authenticator run on a tab for sense ?
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
http://briefmobile.com/motorola-atrix-4g-ready-for-pre-order-100-off

Pre-orders for the Atrix 4G have begun! The phone is priced at $199 on-contract or $499 off-contract. But, you'll be able to get $100 off that off contract price if you want (rebate rules below). Log in to your ATT account and check out the pre-order off-contract price.

$399 is a good deal if you ask me. That's the cheapest off-contract superphone out there.

​

So who's put in their order?
[Atrix 4G General] designgears:
Seems to be impossible to pre-order it off contract :(
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
Really? I just got to the cart page no problem. I'm waiting till tomorrow to pre-order, though. Gotta move some cash into my debit card.
[Atrix 4G General] Athailias:
Yeah I thought I had ordered it, went back and my order was blank. Puts the phone in my cart, but thats as far as it goes.
[Atrix 4G General] ssmotor:
Holding my breath and ordering one.....Come on Dev's!!!!!:D
[Atrix 4G General] designgears:
what page are you hitting to get it without contract?
[Atrix 4G General] Athailias:
att.com, signing in. I am a premier account user though. I will have to call in the morning and see why it wont stick. Hopefully they dont sell so fast that they close pre-orders :P

LAME! I signed back in and now its 500 and it will let me "checkout"
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
Okay.. I was able to reproduce problems. Big bummer! AT&T's probably just got some sort of web error messing things up. I know they'll have pre-orders for current customers.
[Atrix 4G General] Athailias:
I just ordered it for 500 off contract. AT/T owes me an override for the problems with my captivate so I plan to call them in the morning and get it at the upgrade price, but wanted to make sure DG didnt order 80 of them and buy em all...
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
BTW: Mine still says only $399 off-contract with the discount.
[Atrix 4G General] phobos512:
Their website is all KINDS of screwed up. The Premier side of things won't let you order a data plan with the Atrix which prevents you from getting any discount...I don't understand how they can so completely screw up pre-orders...It's certainly not very confidence inspiring.

Oh, and FYI, this may be the "official" thread but there've already been several threads about pre-orders.
[Atrix 4G General] phobos512:
You're pretty daring hoping they'll be able to fix the order layer seeing as you've committed to the $500 price and offered your payment information already. All I can say is, GOOD LUCK!
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
I didn't mean it as official thread! I meant to say that's the official pricing... and that it's officially up and live. Not official thread!

Yes, I hope their web dev team straightens this stuff out.

There is always ebay, and or returns :P
[Atrix 4G General] Athailias:

As a "proud" Captivate owner, my fear about the newest Samsung wonderphone is that despite looking great on paper, it will still be the same fizzle as the Captivate. Add to that the non-existant support and lack of timely software updates and owners will likely be left sitting on GB while the rest of the world has already received Honeycomb. Just reference Samsung's indifference and lack of support for current SGS owners and let that be the deciding factor in your purchase of any future Samsung product. I am willing to give Motorola a shot. What have I really got to lose? :;)
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
This is the way I look at it. I love my Captivate, but Samsung's lack of support bothered me.

Even if the Galaxy S II comes out tomorrow, it isn't much better than the Atrix 4G. Hell, the Atrix has quite a few things missing on the SGS2 anyways.

I'm more than willing to give Motorola a shot with this phone.

[Atrix 4G General] LockeCPM4:
The credit charge is most likely due to electronic funds verification. You will probably have to reorder your device now...

I ordered the atrix and I also ordered the multimedia bundle (only because I get 40% off accessories on the premier site). I played with the Inspire for a few days, and while there was nothing I did not like about the Inspire, I was just not impressed with it. Speed was on par with my Captivate with custom firmware and lagfix and it didn't really bring.anything new to the table. I want my next device to have some sort of wow factor so I decided to order the Atrix. If I don't like it I have 30 days to return it so I really have nothing to lose.
