Yeh I prefer grid view too and doing this after every app install would be a nightmare. I typically use it once after a fresh install - mass install every app I want then reset TwLauncher. I arrange manually after that.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buddha:
Repair with SEUS then reflash again.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kelvin0007:
I will try that, last time failed i hope this time flashes ok

Thanks

Ok, I was running 1.1.0 nootered and saw that Auto-nooter-3.0.0.zip and thought it was the ROM to install Android 3.0 Honeycomb... So I download it and root my 1.1.0 Rooted nook with 1.1.0 ROM. I confess, I am a newb, and this is a rookie mistake, but I just wanted to let everyone know so they don't make the same mistake... this is not the Android Honeycomb ROM.

This is not the android you are looking for, move along. (If you are looking for Honeycomb)

[Captivate General] Windycity35:
We need to compile a list of ROMs that will alter/not alter the IMEI of our beloved phone. I've updated to so many different types of ROMs which I lost track. Fortunately, I am able to procure a new Captivate under warranty. Now that I've started flashing from stock. First one I flashed was Phoenix 4.5 and so far so good, OEM IMEI unaltered. :) Anyone care to share should respond positively! Peace out.
[Captivate General] Mr. Clown:
Moved to general as not android development
[Captivate General] mcord11758:
I have flashed

Phoenix

Fire fly

Perception

Cognition

Serendipity

Continuum

Andromeda

Ultimate

Docs

Precision

Paragon

Stripped

And have never had an issue with my imei. Maybe I am lucky
[Captivate General] BigJayDogg3:
I haven't done as many as you, but I'm in the same boat.

A better list would be one of ROMs that do change your IMEI.

And development have probably stopped doing roger thing that causes IMEIs to change.

Just back up the efs folder and don't worry about it.

Edit: spelling

Sent from my custom ROM'd Captivate
[Captivate General] newter55:
I have flashed pretty much every Rom in the captivate forums, most in the i9000 forum, and quite a few from the vibrant forum with no effect on my imei.
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
The only rom I'm aware of that will have any effect on your IMEI is the gingerbread tech preview rom, which is mostly unusable anyway. Also, if I'm not mistaken, the current CM7 i9000 builds will alter your /efs partition.

The vast majority of the roms you'll come across on xda will not modify your IMEI, as they do not wipe or modify the /efs partition. If you're paranoid about it, just back it up onto your sd card. If you flash a rom and your IMEI changes, just copy the directory contents over the current ones and reboot the phone, and you're sorted.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
How about once you flash stock before a rom flash, check to see if you have the right imei. If it does then back up your efs folder and after rom flash replace it.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
When i first got my captivate (July) and after JH7 I flashed some ROMs - both i9000 and later the Froyo Beta - somewhere I lost my unlock - I never lost my IMEI, but I suspect it is related to the nv_data.bin being corrupted or changed (product code not matching IMEI maybe). I think the phone reports the wrong IMEI if the product code changes and the IMEI is encrypted - I think flashing from JH7 to i9000 causes the problem.

"bames" has done a lot of testing with this and has a thread in the dev section.

I think the important takeaway is: DON'T assume you IMEI or product code can't be changed - many of us have seen it happen. Backup your EFS folder and files.
[Captivate General] shen long:
Did AT&T disable the charge to account option in android market recently? I flashed from 2.1stock to 2.2.1 paragon5.1 and lost the option to charge apps to my at&t account. Is this imei related?
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
i dont think its imei related. one of my captivates is a bone stock JH7, never been rom'd or rooted....and i cant charge to account on most apps i have tried...i gave up
[Captivate General] Windycity35:
This proved to be challenge to me at some points. Before I got my replacement Captivate, I am sure I have the original EFS file folder backed up. After a flash to one of the many roms which I forgot, I noticed my IMEI has changed to the "test-bed" IMEI which quite a few people have the same IMEI too. I tried to copy the original backed up "EFS" over the faulty ones. Rebooted and the "test" IMEI keep showing up. I tried methods such as CHMOD the folder, rooting, busybox, IMEI recovery guide as posted here in the Android Development section, etc. The annoying "beta" or "test" IMEI still stuck.

That being said, I am a bit scared to flash new ROMs again until there is a surefire way to overwrite unwanted EFS folder with my original backed up EFS folder in the future.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Yeah IT gave me a ruff time at one point to. What I had to do to recover my IMEI was to flash stock (still had the test imei) while on stock I had to root and use root explorer to replace just the files that were in the efs folder. Imei folder, IMEI file and nv.bin, and then reboot. Got my right IMEI back and it hasnt changed sense then
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
Can one of you guys post the test IMEI? Is it just all 0's or something or does it actually look like a legit IMEI?
[Captivate General] newter55:
Starts with 004 or something like that. Nothing close to a real imei other than in number of characters.
[Galaxy Tab General] dubie76:
I have been reading many posts on flashing roms and such to USA galaxy tablets that allow them to make calls. Ok, I understand that. What I want to know is how that all works out since no US plans have call minutes for our tablets. I am looking for specifics. Is this VOIP? or what? Second, Why only 2G if this mod is made?
[Galaxy Tab General] malaise76:
For GSM tabs, you need to use a sim with voice and data.
[Galaxy Tab General] Mandelbrot.Benoit:
Its VOIP. At least the ones I've seen. Made over wifi. Since there is no calling plan with minutes tied to the Tab it can't be a typical voice call. Sipdroid from the market with Google Voice accomplished this as well and is very easy to set up without root (I'm pretty sure). Just set up GV. Download sipdroid and before entering anything click on the bottom tab that says create with GV account. It will ask password and to create a pbx account and ow right in that screen. Then its done.

Its funny but if you try to select the dialer it says calls can't be made with Samsung Galaxy Tab. But if you select the box for a number the keyboard dialer pops up and allows you to type a number! Works great.

I just tried it over 3g with wifi off and works as well. Just select allow voice over 3g in your account tab.

This was showed to me and there is a thread on droidx forums

I realize this isn't 100% relevant to your thread, just thought I would point you to it if you were wanting to make calls on tab.

I have VZW tab. I have no idea on GSM
[Galaxy Tab General] LargePrime:
All the provider cares about is the Sim card. So all you need is a sim with what you want, and then change/disable the IMEI of your tab.
[Galaxy Tab General] curney:
I was able to set this up bit when I call my goog voice # from my wife's phone it still only rings my dumbphone. Do I need to add my tab number to Google voice somehow?
[Galaxy Tab General] Mandelbrot.Benoit:
Go to your Google account and select the voice icon. Settings in top right. Voice setting. Then at bottom select add another phone. I was able to add it, but cannot get it to verify. So I'm not sure if it can receive calls, just make.

And to the poster about the SIM card, I'm on VZW, no sim card or slot.
[Galaxy Tab General] LargePrime:
I was Quoting you to the OP.
[Galaxy Tab General] Coolsaber57:
For SIPDroid, does it do that annoying thing where it asks the receiving person to accept the call ? Or is it just like regular calling?

Does it do that call back thing?
[Galaxy Tab General] w4rmk:
If you install firmware that allows phone calls it works no different than any other Android phone. Pull the SIM out of your Android phone and insert into the Tab and viola you have a 7" Android phone that can make calls and browse the web. The easiest way to think about it is that the Tab is a big Android phone, the carrier's don't know any difference because it's running the same O/S as Samsung's Android phones.
[Fascinate General] neyenlives:
So I am running the latest voodoo infused Superclean 2.1 and I found out something that saves a ton of time.

Say you downloaded a .zip file you need to flash in cwr. Before you had to create the disable folder/file, reboot, wait for it to convert back, reboot, flash zip file, remove disable file, reboot..wait for it to enable...

Now I find I can reboot, choose disable voodoo in the new cwr menu, go to zip file and flash it, then immediately toggle voovoo back to enabled, then reboot. No reboots in-between .....

I thought maybe it was a placebo and that voodoo wasn't actually reenabled, but after it booted I ran Linpack and Quadrant and my scores were obviously voodoo enabled scores....

So is it too good to be true?
[Fascinate General] yoitsbry:
you are referring to the original voodoo....... I believe the new voodoo source is voodoo 5.
[Fascinate General] calebv2:
Yes this had been around for some time now to make it easyer so yeah
[Fascinate General] kmalinich:
First, you don't need to disable voodoo to flash 99% of stuff.

Second, disabling voodoo in the menu just creates the disable_voodoo file for you. you'd still have to reboot for it to disable (and wait through the conversion process) for it to be actually disabled. it's even on the screen. "voodoo actually: enabled"

so when you toggle it off, flash, and back on without rebooting, you aren't disabling it at all.
[Fascinate General] suppliesidejesus:
Really? You didn't know that? Voodoo 5 has been out for MONTHS now. This thread should be moved.
[Fascinate General] nitsuj17:
There hasnt been the need to disable voodoo to flash most things for months....since we have had voodoo recovery around Thanksgiving....not exactly a new revelation
[Fascinate General] neyenlives:
You guys might be missing a couple points. This is the voodoo that comes packaged in Superclean2.1 EB01 that Adrenalyne just recently released. So no its not the old voodoo.

Another point someone made was 99% of things don't need voodoo disabled. A couple nights ago after installing SC2.1 I tried to install two different zip files. Both times I got an error. Error at Line 2 or Erie at line 4. IRC member said disable voodoo. So I did and all of a sudden they install fine. Ok. But then I see the voodoo toggle in CWR and I try it without revolting in-between and it works.

Maybe I'm not explaining this well.
[Fascinate General] nitsuj17:
voodoo5 is voodoo5...theres nothing new in terms of what we can do in recovery with the voodoo options that we couldnt do 2 months ago

ive flashed a ton of stuff in the last few days with voodoo enabled and had no issue or reason to disable/renable in cwr
[Fascinate General] neyenlives:
Well voodoo 5 is new to me. I went from DH12 stock to EB01 Voodoo. Guess its just me learnin'
[Fascinate General] dmaustin:
When jt first released voodoo for eb01 he didn't have cwm fixed yet. About 30 minutes later he released another eb01-voodoo.zip that was 5mb bigger (13mb) because it included a working cwm. Since then I have flashed and restored many times without error or disabling. SC2.1 voodoo includes voodoo5 and working cwm in the zip. If you're still getting an error in red cwm then maybe something is borked and you should start over. Hope this helps.

And all questions should be posted in general. You'll likely get plenty of responses there as well.
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
Just to clarify, the ONLY time you ever need to disable the lag fix after enabling it is if you intend to flash a non-Voodoo kernel of any kind. That's because a non-Voodoo kernel is incapable of reading the ext4 filesystem and will freak out when trying to boot. As long as you use the red CWM (which is compatible with ext4; green CWM, like non-Voodoo kernels is not), then you can do nandroid backups/restores and flash roms, themes, and other Voodoo kernels as much as you want without having to worry about disabling the lag fix.

Oh, and disabling and then enabling the lag fix from the CWM menus without rebooting does absolutely nothing, because it has to reboot in between to run the scripts that actually enable or disable the lag fix (this is when you hear the female robotic voice).

Posted from my EB01 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
[Fascinate General] beeblebrux:
I've just switched to superclean 2.2 with voodoo, and it's my first time using it. I'm enjoying it so far, but I've already made the noob mistake of using rom manager to boot into recovery. Luckily it was only a boot animation, so the flash failed and no damage was done. Just have to get used to manually booting into red cwr.

But it's really good to know I can flash roms without disabling as long as I use red cwr. Didn't see a clear answer to that before. And I can flash other voodoo kernels as well without disabling? Say, for example, kaosinate rom and kernel? Been wanting to try that and jt's vanilla
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
Not sure about jt's, but kaos's kernel is a Voodoo kernel, so yes, you wouldn't need to disable the lag fix before flashing it.

Posted from my EB01 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
[Fascinate General] beeblebrux:
Yeah, jt has a voodoo kernel for his vanilla froyo. Great to know, ivory, thanks
[Fascinate General] times_infinity:
I suggest you stop using voodoo since you clearly know nothing about how it works. As started by someone else, the only time you need to disable voodoo is when flashing a non voodoo kernel. The errors that you got are clearly install script errors. NOT because you're voodoo'd. So you and the person you got advice from know nothing about how voodoo works so I suggest you save yourself the trouble and stop using it.
[Fascinate General] neh4pres:
I am not sure what is ment by"other" voodoo kernels. I thought voodoo 5 itself was the kernel. Now from reading these posts I have lost some understanding of voodoo. If there are other voodoo kernels, are those others voodoo 5 based? What normal kernel is the stock voodoo 5 based on?

[Vibrant General] tahngarth:
Some forewarning: I tried this a few months ago and it didn't work. I am currently running Bionix-V. I have tried this on two Windows 7 machines and it worked on both. I do mean Zune Pass protected content too, not just the phone showing up in WMP as a syncable device.

Here is what I did:

1. In USB Settings, set it to prompt. Simply setting to Media Player should also work.

2. Connect to PC. In my case drivers where installed as it was the first time I had connected the phone since putting Bionix-V on there. The MTP application should start up automatically and connect.

3. After driver installation the auto-run dialog appears. The top option for me is Sync digital media to this device using Windows Media Player

4. After a few moments you should see the vibrant in the top right corner as a syncable device. The Next Device link will allow you to sync to the SD card.

5. Either wait for the slow as hell media search to find/update media, or simply use Windows Explorer to drag and drop into the right pane.

6. Sync!

7. A subsequent reconnection using this procedure resulted in WMP not finding the device. Repeating steps 1 and 2 was enough for WMP to find the device.

So that's what I did. Depending on response I may come back and put up a better guide. The moral of the story is that it's at least possible, possibly after a bit of star alignment since this previously didn't work. I just did this today so I'm not sure how updating the DRM time-bomb works, worst case is delete/re-add.
[Vibrant General] rmeden:
confused

I'm confused...

Are you talking about using your Vibrant with the Zune Pass service? (unlimited music downloads $x/mo, DRM makes sure music only plays when subscribing)

Does the Vibrant understand the Zune DRM? (I would find that surprising)

Are you just talking about the Vibrant showing up as a music device in Windows Media?

Robert
[Vibrant General] cundiffr:
I pose the same question....
[Vibrant General] tahngarth:
Sorry for the confusion.

I do indeed mean that it accepts Zune Pass DRM'd WMA's. The Zune software won't work with it (it's strictly for Zunes). The key is using WMP. I honestly think the whole thing is a loophole in how WMP works with the Zune Pass content. I've used this method on a Cowon DAP for the last year or two. I wouldn't be at all surprised if WMP was actually downgrading the DRM to one of the older, more standard ones. Based on experience with my Cowon DAP though, the DRM is definitely still intact after being transfered to the device.

I'm not sure why it works now when it didn't work before though. Previously WMP wouldn't recognize my phone, even though the MTP app was running.

Further info for you, just checked the details in the default Music Player app on one of the tracks. Media type is audio/x-ms-wma. Further down is a "Right Status" section with the data

[Vibrant General] megatherian:
yea, I've been doing this since I first got my phone. The songs do expire if you cancel your subscription or don't sync with Windows Media Player for a while - and there are quite a few songs that won't sync (because of their DRM licenses). It works ok though. Good enough if you want some of your music with you all the time.

Honestly, I love the Zune Marketplace subscription service and have always just been m'eh on my player. Still I find I use my Zune more for music than my phone though because with the player I can have all my music with me. I wish there was an Android Zune app, but we all know that will NEVER happen.
