you can change the picture background by long-pressing the current one and it will show you some options
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Diaeko:
i dont have such a option
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] cardeg:
open pictures hub, on main page long-press on background (free space without letters) - here you are, some options to change background
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] romperstomper:
There is no manual way to change the background of the Musc & Videos Hub. It will change automatically if you play music by an artist that the software is able to retrieve information for online.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Diaeko:
ah ok thank u

and what whit the picture hub?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] bleui:
are you sure you're doing what me and cardeg said?

just go inside the picture hub, find a blank spot on your current wallpaper (use the space below the "all, date, favorites" menu), press your finger there for 2 seconds or more and you'll have an additional menu (change background)

if it's still not shown up then there's something wrong with your current ROM.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mcnob:
Dunno if any of you clever developer-types will find this tucked away in here but here goes anyway.

Via the Cydia store for iOS there's a handy little app called "3G Unrestrictor" that fools certain apps into believing they're connected over WiFi when they're actually only on 3G/HSDPA. Without going into too much detail about the morality and quality of video due to speed, is anyone able to say if it's possible to replicate this effect on the Android platform and if-so, would anyone care to take the ball on it? I'd pay a quid for such an app and I'm fairly sure I ain't alone.

Just hypothetical of course..... ;-)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mcnob:
That'll be a no then?!?!

Seriously? An open-source platform like Android?

Oh well.

Hi,

I powered up my unlocked Streak bought directly from Dell and it's asking for a SIM card. Do I need to root it, to use it without a SIM?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cudahy_boy:
your going to need to use a sim card because i have a unlocked dell streak that wa slocked to att but since i got the guy i bought it from to call att and get an unlock code everything worked just fine with a sim card but your going to neeb to use a sim card or else you will only be able to make emergency calls only and also i am roted
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slocko:
I guess it's different in android land than iOS.

On my jailbroken iphone, I can use it as web device without a sim card.

Was hoping to setup the streak with all my contacts and calendars and apps before putting in my sim card to minimize down time.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jabreu203:
I use mine without a SIM all the time. When I need access away from home I tether it to my Nexus One. I use it as a tablet and I have my N1 for calls and text. I also have Liveview on my wrist.

Hi. Did you buy yours unlocked from Dell? Did you have to root it? Looking for some guidance to get pass the emergency sim card message.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slocko:
lol. i think this was user error. for whatever reason I didn't try to unlock the device. i'm used to the iPhone that if you get that message unlocking it just gives you the dialer for 911. I finally decided to just put the SIM in.

My sister have an HTC Touch Diamond. It was locked by Vodafone, but this is unlocked still by me.

The LCD of phone is very strange. After few days from a new ROM installing (firstly is perfect), I can use hardly the touching. When I touch the "A" point, the phone perceives the "B" point. Rarely help me the LCD calibration, a period of time it work, but after a while it goes wrong again.

I try more ROMs, but it was same by all. The LCD-touching work fine, but after few days, goes wrong.

Thanks forward for anything type of help!

AT PRESENT:

Windows Mobile 6.5 CE OS 5.2.21907 (Build 21907.5.0.93), but it was on phone 6.1 too yet.

Radio version: 1.00.25.05

Protocol version: 52.29.25.12W_1.00.25.05
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Hakim Rahman:
maybe you can try using the G-Sensor Calibration! you can look at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=430070
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] grandma90:
Try going back to 6.1 !

Diamond has known issues with the 6.5 , because the headset is old and oftenly does rage when sees a new OS (a far better one than the once had...)

If this still doesnt work , my option is this. Buy a new touchscreen. It`s a sad option , but desperate times require desperate measures.

Wait for other replies , dont go THAT harsh on your headset just yet...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bone2006:
I've been running cynangenmod 6.1 for awhile and I wanted to try this yoshi RC4 release, but had a few questions. I've been searching, but not 100% clear what radio and SPL are. It appears radio is the signal strength, but what is SPL stands for Second Program Loader? So is that the bootload that right now says cynangemod mod when it boots or what is the SPL?

Under settings I see baseband version 2.22.23.02, which I'm guessing is the radio, but how do I found out what SPL I have?

I was planning on flashing the ROM like I would normally have done in the past, but after reading a few posts about the radio/SPL I started to get a little nervous about the radio/SPL that I am not 100% clear on.

Sorry for the questions, but I did search for awhile and it just made me more confused.

The ROM I was planning on using is the RC4 from this link

Thanks in advance
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] yguns76:
I would suggest you look for "RadioSwitcherGUI" I am using version 4.0 by Mumilover / eyegor. Super Easy to use.

To find out your current settings, you need to get into fastboot. Power off your phone. Power it back on by pressing the back key and Power button simultaneously.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
And I would suggest you don't do anything since you've got the myTouch with the headphone Jack and will probably end up bricking your phone if you start trying to flash a new radio/SPL. Not trying to troll, but if you don't know anything about radios and SPL's then you then you need to hit up the wiki and start educating yourself. There's also a stickied thread filled with all kinds of good info about the myTouch 1.2 (headphone Jack version).

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n00bhackin:
I'm pretty sure all wireless tether apps, other that the Sprint one, require root. The closest you can get to tethering without root would be to use pdanet or easytether, but both of those are usb tether only.

[Galaxy Tab General] Vaughan_Davies:
Hi, I'm a complete noob in every respect. I just got my Tab last weekend, and I'm enjoying it so far. I'm sure I'll have a lot of questions as time goes on, but just a little one to start off with.

When I'm listening to music, if I receive a message (email or SMS) the audio playback is interrupted while the notification sound plays, then it resumes. I would prefer if the notification just sounded on top of the music. Is there a setting or something I can change to let this happen?

Thanks

[Captivate General] Dlev7:
Alright this is kind of a thread to get a discussion going. And NOO THIS IS NOT WHAT IS THE BEST ROM THREAD!

This is a thread regarding whether or not you flash back to stock when flashing new ROMs.

Personally Ive always flashed back to stock because im a Buiild 1011 and I use this thread which has worked EVERY time so if your a build 1010 this is a great way that is flawless:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10056254&postcount=36

But the debate here is whether or not you flash back to stock every time and if you dont flash back to stock tell us about your experiences flashing ROMs over each other.

Im doing this because the more I read on threads of ROMs reading and reading I always see a ton of posts arguing saying that they dont even flash stock anymore and I just want to see and hear what y'all have to say.

Would love to see the return on this and since i have Download mode JIG thanks to MobileTechVideos (fantastic!) I may flash a ROM over Darkyy that Im using currently just to see how it works.

Thanks in advance
[Captivate General] opcow:
No. Never. Why would I? I do it only if I want to run stock or once or twice when my partitioning was screwed. Otherwise it's a pointless thing to do.
[Captivate General] Dlev7:
Hm, have you ever run into a problem? And I thought you have to flash back to stock or the ROM will not install if they are a different base.

I.e. Since im on Darkyy 9.3 with the JS5 base, i couldnt just go flash Perception with a JS3 base right?

Im not trying to argue Im just wondering and Im practically unbrickable so I may try that when I get home and if I get in trouble either flash back to Darkyy and finally just use the ole Jig and flash back to stock.
[Captivate General] Stephenv1971:
I stopped flashing odin after I had to bring my 1007 phone in for warranty and got a 1008 back. No way I am flashing using odin, 1008's have bad flashing mojo. I have a nandroid of the original OS and can go back to that if I need to to start over. I even bought a jig after I got this one just in case.
[Captivate General] Dlev7:
First of all the nandroid WILL NOT restore your old OS because it doesnt restore anything System.

Secondly the build 1008 has a problem with the 3 button fix flash this zip if your 3 button fix gets removed. It works for everyone including me when I lost 3 button combo.

And third smart choice with the Jig I bought one just in case and it has never failed me
[Captivate General] opcow:
No, I have done it dozens of times with many different ROMs and never had a problem.

Yes, you could.

Right. I think you'll find that it works just fine and saves you same hassle and it's safer too since you won't be unnecessarily be writing a new boot.bin and sbl.bin (DG's ROMs do include sbl.bin, however).
[Captivate General] newter55:
Just curious why you would think flashing js5 over jf6 would be any more effective than flashing over js3 or jpy. I have yet to see an explanation other than "its recommended" or "because dg said to" so I doubt you will get any real answers from the odin crowd. Personally I haven't done it in forever.
[Captivate General] Dlev7:
Ive never thought of it that way ever before. But the only thing ive ever heard is that Odin does stuff that the install script that these ROMS dont.

Ya and its said to say but thats the only things ive ever heard that its safer and DG said so. But in my defense does the install script on these ROMs really do the same as what Odin does?
[Captivate General] Dlev7:
Do either of y'all know whether or not the install script on the ROMs do replace it well.

The reason ive never done this is because I always heard that only Odin can flash over things.

But Ive seen a lot of people like y'all say all you have to do is wipe data and cache, and dalvik cache, and flash away but do the instal script in these ROMs rewrite the system?
[Captivate General] opcow:
They delete files and format partitions just fine. If they didn't then I wouldn't have been able to go for months trying almost every ROM released without ever launching Odin. I don't know what you mean by "only Odin can flash over things." If that were the case then how would CWM flashing ever work whether you flashed stock first or not? If things are getting left behind then why would having JF6 stuff left behind be preferable?

You don't have to do that either. Check out this snippit from an install script:

format SYSTEM:

format CACHE:

format DATA:

format DATADATA:

delete_recursive SDCARD:Android

delete_recursive DATADATA:databases/com.android.providers.media

delete_recursive DATADATA:databases/com.cooliris.media

delete_recursive SDCARD:DCIM/.thumbnails​

That takes care of deleting the cache, dalvik cache and more.
[Captivate General] Dlev7:
Qq

So technically its Is aactually safer because you don't lose 3 buttons. And since I'm a build 1011 I have to do a 30 minute procedure just to get to JH7.

So you may be right its actually safer.

Are there any youtube videos out there to help the people who came from the Captivate or Iphone on rooting the Inspire. I know some people will say the instructions are in the zip file in the hack kit. But there are people out there like me that learn better and fast from visuals then reading. If I can see how to do it, I will learn it faster and easier.

[Continuum Android Development] imnuts:
Similar to Adrynalyne's post, I would greatly appreciate anyone that could do this. What I am looking for is a dump from a completely stock system, the only requirement is that you be rooted. So, if ANYONE has a completely stock Continuum and would be willing to do this, that would be great. It would also be good to get this from both DJ20 and DL17 if possible, but even getting it from just one of the two would be great. Here are the steps to produce the files.

This is easiest to do via adb.

As root (#)

To backup the .lfs partition

dd if=/dev/block/stl6 of=/sdcard/param.lfs bs=4096

To backup the kernel parition:

dd if=/dev/block/bml7 of=/sdcard/zImage bs=4096

To backup the recovery partition:

dd if=/dev/block/bml8 of=/sdcard/recovery.bin bs=4096

To backup the system partition:

dd if=/dev/block/stl9 of=/sdcard/factoryfs.rfs bs=4096

To backup the dbdata partition:

dd if=/dev/block/stl10 of=/sdcard/dbdata.rfs bs=4096

To backup the cache partition:

dd if=/dev/block/stl11 of=/sdcard/cache.rfs bs=4096

Once you have the files, zip them together and upload them to a sharing site (Dropbox, MediaFire, Megaupload, personal webhost, etc.) and post a link to them. If you don't want the link in the public, feel free to PM me a link to download the file. Once we have these, it will be much easier to do development work, especially with the voodoo kernel. Thank you to anyone that follows this and sends files.

EDIT: Received stock DJ20, which is a definite plus. Now for DL17 :p
