I'm positive the .nomedia file will keep audio from showing up in the music player. I did this to keep lets golf sounds and other game sounds from showing up there. So that file would keep the image from showing up in the gallery, but also the mp3's wouldn't show up in music player either.

Hi guys.

I checked my phone today, and found out there was another update available.

I went to http://www.sonyericsson.com/update and found out it was only pinchzoom for Browser and Google Maps.

Freely translated:

The new functions include:

Pinch/Zoom touch for mobile surfing on the internet and Google Maps.

I decide not to update, or should I?
[XPERIA X10 General] ooidort:
You should. I don't see any downsides of having dualtouch and overall snappier UI.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sangwoo:
what do u mean as in file? what kind of file? doc? txt?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bigredcat:
There is no file extension when creating the "disable_lagfix".

1) Create a new txt document.

2) Name it "disable_lagfix". It will tell you that it will no longer be useable, blah blah. Just accept.

3) Then move it in to the voodoo folder on the sd card.

4) Reboot phone. It will take a while at reboot to un-voodoo the phone. This is normal.

Done.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivorycruncher:
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the filename needs to be .disable_lagfix (notice the dot at the beginning). Oh, and the file is just an empty file, no particular format. You can create one easily with Root Explorer. If you don't have Root Explorer, I suggest buying it, as it makes it much easier to work with files on your rooted phone.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eggyjla74:
I've been having this problem for a while. The settings do not store and always get the "can't mount /dev/block/stl11" error. I first tried the disable_lagfix file and rebooted. Nothing new. Changed some settings and then rebooted. None of the system settings kept. I then tried the voodoo uninstaller in the referenced thread. The uninstaller seemed to work without error, but still get the mounting error when entering recovery mode.

Ok i have done some searching on this forum looking for my answer but not much luck. I have the captivate. i realy like the phone and its display. i had it rooted with atts stock rom for a while. but since att was draging there feet with the 2.2 update i have flashed a few new roms. all of wich when im in the car listening to tunes if i got a call the music would stop and i could hear the call through car speakers stoped working. I have tried diff roms and no luck to fix. so is this something to do with the 2.2 update. I was reading another post and if i read right it looks as if it is. I am currently running pheonix 4.5 wich has been my fav rom so far. So to get my calls to go through car speakers again what do i need to do? I know there is apps and so forth to make the phone go to speaker, but 9 times out of 10 i cant hear speaker phone in car.

Also i have the exchange pin. whats a good way to nuke that?

hi there

just got that amazing phone from Ebay and i love it!!!

have stock AT&T rom on it

1) how do i peremantly change the network to EDGE and not 3G

i want it to stay after reboot....

2) is there any way to install hebrew on it without flashing ?

3) just got the phone rooted and market unlocked

4) how to install games and apps on the large mass storage ? (8GB CARD\16GB ob) ?

5) iv noticed that some of my files destroyed after inserting the 8GB card just after rooting the phone...

thanks allot!!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveyBB:
Hi... I hope this helps.

1. Enter *#2263# from the phone app and select only the GSM bands. This should (someone correct me if I'm wrong) only give you 2G data.

2. Hebrew comes native on 2.2 & 2.2.1 ROMS. I looked for a while to get Hebrew support while I was on stock, and I wasn't able.

4. Moving apps to SD is only available on 2.2 and higher ROMS.

5. I have no idea... can you write new files and still read them? Try reformatting the SD card or a new one.

In short... flash a 2.2 or 2.2.1 ROM. There are plenty to chose from in the development section.
[LG Optimus 2x] domi007:
[ROOT] Super One Click - works with every ROM version (2.2.1 & above also supported)

Hi everyone,

Here is a really brief tutorial, how you can get any Optimus 2x rooted via your computer and the SuperOneClick program:

PLEASE, READ THE WHOLE #1 POST, BECAUSE IT HAS SEVERAL GUIDES, SO YOU SHOULD TRY EVERYTHING BEFORE ASKING! DON'T SPAM THE THREAD IF POSSIBLE!

UPDATE: April 15th, 2014 - none of the links are valid anymore, and I don't have the files neither the Optimus 2x anymore, so sorry everyone, but it is pointless to keep poking this thread.

1. Install the USB driver needed to have ADB access to the phone, you can download it from here:

UPDATED: April 4th, 2011

LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN32AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.2.exe

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=M8OF7XGT

or if the link above doesn't work:

http://www.multiupload.com/ZII8RRUXHR

2. Connect your phone, enable USB debugging (Settings->Applications->Development)

3. Run SuperOneClick

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

4. Choose root!

5. Run the test in the end...and you will have it, you got root access on your 2.2.1 LG Optimus 2X device!

+1 I recommend you first uninstalling the Car Home app and F-Secure (if you are not using it) because it is highly responsible for freezes and instabilites (AFAIK).

If the tutorial above fails, here is djmcnz's method:

Use the psneuter option, I had the same problem with rage, psneuter worked instantly.

Optimus 2x, Unbranded, Android 2.2.2 (out of the box, no OTA)

All I did was:

Install LG driver (first post)

Open SuperOneClick 1.7

Select psneuter

Hit root

Check Superuser app

No reboots or shell root required.

Su is permanent, withstands a reboot.

IF YOU GET DRIVER NOT SIGNED OR OTHER ISSUES AT STEP 1, here is something that could help you:

http://www.junefabrics.com/android/driver.php

One more guide, this may help you too (credit goes to Maliacrete):

For all those who get stuck at "waiting for device" with the SuperOneClick try running it as an Administrator (right click, Run as Administrator) or follow these:

a) make sure your phone is "seen" from your pc under hardware (http://www.junefabrics.com/android/driver.php). Follow the instructions here. If needed install your drivers from the link on the bottom of the junefabrics page.

b) Download the PdaNet from here (http://junefabrics.com/android/download.php), when prompt to replace the drivers, press NO.

c) if at this point the PdaNet istallation tells you that it cannot detect any phone you need to go back to the drivers problem. No correct drivers (debugging), No root.

d) Run the SuperOneClick and it will surely do the job.

You can also get some more infos on here (http://theunlockr.com/2010/10/11/how-to-root-your-android-phone-superoneclick-method/)

Hi,

For me, the SuperOneClick rooting stops with

chmod psneuter

As it is not able to complete the chmod'ing. Any ideas what the problem might be?

I'm using Ubuntu 10.10, and adb works fine and the psneuter is also transferred to the phone without problems. The phone runs Android 2.2.2, 1035.21_20110405, V10b.

Cheers, Mikkel.
[LG Optimus 2x] domi007:
For those of you who have problems with SuperOneClick itself not connecting it to the phone or something like that please ask your quesrions also in the thread of SuperOneClick as the program‘s developer himself is probably more capable of answering them than we are.

I want to uninstall my F mobile safe and car home.. How do i do that, can someone please teach me.. Appreciate it.. Thanks

[LG Optimus 2x] n3n00:
You can't do that with superuser :). You must install Titanium Backup, and when you open it, superuser will ask for a permission, you just click "Allow". In Titanium Backup just find what you want to uninstall.

You can do that with Root Explorer(paid app...but cracked too) too. Open it, go to system/app, check R/W(it will show R/O than) and move F Secure to sdcard. This way you'll be able to get it back on phone, in case you want a Factory Reset.

I have to be honest, and disagree with the title of this posting, "works with every ROM version (2.2.1 & above also supported)" -- because, well...it doesn't work with every ROM. It didn't root my SGH-I897 running UCKI2 (boog kernel swap did, however); nor did it work on my LG P990HN - and I have 2 desktops and 1 laptop, so I know it's not a driver/OS issue (disabled anti-virus, of course).

Inside the text file add the following lines:

<configuration>
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0"/>
