[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJ.Evoking:
Two questions

1) what is a voicemail. Handle?

2) voicemail not working Cyn.mod7 Ginger update.

I so need to fix my vmail I've tried various sprint vvm packs with no success. Even willing to make a pay pal donation. Ok. Thanks in advance evolution lovers.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:
I think this is discussed in the Nightlies thread in general or in the RC1 thread. I believe there is a fix for this, but not positive it applies to your specific issue.

I THINK the fix is this:

Flash a sense ROM and get Sprint vvm set up and working, then back it up with titanium.

Go back to CM7, either restore or flash again, then use Titanium to restore it WITH DATA.

I do seem to remember something about install Sprint vvm without Titanium, then using it to restore only the data, but I can't remember for sure.

Or you could use google voice like me, I don't care about voicemail enough to worry about it.

G voice? But will I have to give out a different number
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
you did change your settings to your phone number correct? Menu-settings-call settings-voice mail settings-voice mail number
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heyitstval:
actually, if you get a GVoice number, you can configure your phone to use GVoice.

Dial *28AAABBBCCCC

where AAABBBCCC = your GVoice number.

also, you can go to Settings > Call Settings > Voicemail and change it to Google Voice, it will dial for you.

GV backs your voicemail up to the cloud, transcribes (with fairly good accuracy), and e-mails it to you. What more could you want?? No more backing up/restoring voicemails, and you can read and see via e-mail your voicemail when your phone's dead (as opposed to having to call your # and hitting pound every time).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:
Yeah, the others are correct. You have to get a Google voice number, but you don't have to give it out to anyone. Just log into your google account on your comp and go to Google Voice to set up your account and pick a number once you have the number, click gvoice on your phone and it will walk you through the setup step by step.

Took me a while the first time figuring it out on my own, after that it's no problem.

In the TG01 Android project discussion thread, page 62, life02 is interested in helping port Android to TG01 but it will be difficult for him with no TG01 in his hands.

life02 has experience in Android porting and has done excellent work on the HTC Polaris.

Many TG01 users would like to see Android on TG01 a reality, and I in particular would like to see it happen as soon as possible, I would like to send life02 a second hand TG01 for the purpose of porting Android to it.

However, the full price of a second hand TG01 is not a price I actually want to pay yet, therefore I would like some of it costs to be reimbursed by donations from other eager TG01 users.

I'm from Hong Kong and it seems PayPal does not allow Hong Kong PayPal accounts to create Donate buttons even though I've already upgraded to a Premier account, and I also want the fundraising to be more transparent, therefore I googled and found PeerDreams.com. They use PayPal as their payment processor and each campaign clearly shows how much money has been raised. Here is an example:

http://www.peerdreams.com/p28

I'm almost ready in sending life02 a second hand TG01 and publishing a campaign on PeerDreams, but I just want to be sure if this is allowed on XDA as there doesn't seem to be any prior example of this. Can I post a PeerDreams link in the thread for this purpose?

Can anyone give me any advice.

After flashing Carbon ara theme V2.5.1 over a previous version and Leedroid 2.3d, I have noticed by OJ has stopped working. I have tried editing sms message using it but it is dead.

I then went into Clockwork recovery but is doesnt work there either. I managed to restore to a previous version using Rom Manager but the OJ is still dead. I am unsure if this is a hardware issue or I am not getting a full wipe using Rom manager.

Also as it doesnt work in recovery my options are limited as I cant select any options!

Help!

Update

My phone now has no rom and I cant get trackpad button to work to accept install zip in recovery. Is there another way of installing a rom without needing the trackpad button.
[Desire General] Meaple:
Send it in for repair. I am sure that you can use fastboot. Search the forums.
[Desire General] randyumi:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattap:
Hi everyone I am new to all of this. So what is the best way to root my Captivate without bricking it. And what is the best rom to run for starters. Thxs
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] welchertc:
The easiest way that I have found that give me no issues whatsoever is this:

Search for z4root and download the .apk file to your computer (can't remember if i found it on the forum or elsewhere on the internet)

Search for Android Central Sideload Wonder Machine and download to your computer

Follow the instructions to use the sideload wonder machine to transfer the z4root.apk file to your phone; once transferred, disconnect your phone from your computer, open the app and click "permanent root"

Voila, your phone roots itself

I suggest having a full battery for rooting as well as flashing any rom

As for being "permanent", it is not, flashing back to stock before changing roms (i use odin3 one click) unroots your phone, so no worries on that front

Hope that helped!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] welchertc:
As for the best rom, that's really up to you. As you will find in many other threads, every captivate is different, therefore nobody will have the exact same experience using the same rom. Each rom has its own advantages, so you really just need to keep trying different ones to see which one you like best, and which one makes your phone run best. I really suggest looking through the threads for each rom, reading about each one, looking at screenshots, and maybe reading other people's comments and issues towards the end of the thread (most recent comments go with the most recent version of each rom, as some roms have 100+ pages)

Currently, I am running Serendipity 5.9, looking to make the update to 5.11 later today once I'm out of class. This rom is my favorite so far, i still have yet to see its effect on my battery life. Other than battery life though, Serendipity gives me super fast download and upload speeds, isn't laggy at all, gives great benchmark scores, and is super stable from what I have seen so far. This is just for me though, so you really need to just try out whichever one looks best for you.

In the past week and a half since I first rooted and flashed a rom, I have run all of the following roms:

Andromeda themed and unthemed

Gingerclone

Perception

Cognition

eSPyel's Rom

Serendipity

Paragon

Firefly

Phoenix

...possibly a few others...those are just the ones I remember by looking at the captivate directory sticky thread (in the development section), which you should really read before doing anything, if you haven't already, they give a great rundown of the whole process.

Hope this helped as well, and good luck

For rooting and installing custom ROMs try out the program in my signature (AIO Captivate Toolbox). And for a recommendation of a ROM, I'd say serendipity is a very solid choice for a beginner.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egypt3:
My personal experience included NOT downloading some one click root program or the like. I don't know, maybe it's safer that way. Then again, maybe it's just a waste of time and energy. I simply downloaded some crappy BuglessBeast rom. Renamed it update.zip. Put it on my cappy. And reinstalled packages from the boot screen. It took all of a minute and I didn't need to interface with my cpu or any software.

I can't post links yet, but if that interests you go to the androidforums captivate page and check out the 'unleash the beast' thread.

Immediately after that, I did the same thing, but with Perception.

Perception and Serendipity are the two roms I'd recommend. Perception has a prettier settings menu. Serendipity probably runs a tad bit smoother and is GB themed.

I took a few pictures on Friday but now they aren't in my gallery. Anyone else have this issue?
[HTC Inspire 4G] matt_b:
few questions...

are you rooted? if so, which rom are you running?

also, have you used a file manager to browse and see if the files are still on your phone? normally scdard/media/dcim houses picture/video files made with the phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] pside15:
Not rooted, just plain old stock for the time being. Haven't searched for them like that yet. I just noticed they had disappeared from my gallery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] matt_b:
i would check to see if the files are still on the phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
Not normal, yes as suggested browse through your gallery thoroughly or use a file manager app like Linda File Manager.

Through the camera app there is a way to view photos youve already taken.

If You can preview them they have to be somewhere within your Inspire ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] pside15:
Very strange. They definitely were not in my gallery. I hooked up my phone to my laptop and there they were in the DCIM folder. Now they appear back in my gallery after disconnecting the phone from my laptop. Not exactly sure what was going on there.

Thanks for the help guys.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Aridon:
If it happens again bring the phone back for another one. It could also be the SD card. Try doing a full format on a computer for it and put the files back on.

After doing my recovery from nandroid my battery is only lasting about 4-5 hrs in standby. When i look at my usage it showing that the android OS is 33%, cell standby is 20%, wifi is 20%, phone idle is 19% and android system is 6%. i did flash the radio while trying update the myn rom but since it wouldnt load i went back and recovered from nandroid. I am on wifi at home so it not searching around. also notice my internet and email is very slow along with facebook. Any suggestions.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Well you can always try to flash a different kernel. Also use setcpu, if you wish. If you're at home, do you really need wifi on? That will drain the battery as well. As a good practice, if you're not using your radio [3G] turn it off to safe additional battery. For the internet, you can try running ad free, or the signal fix. Signal fix must be run in a sense rom.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10781368#post10781368
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heyitstval:
33% is kinda high for System...at least in my experience.

You may want to check also your sync settings. For each account, check what is synced and how often. for some apps, you can change this in Settings > Applications & Sync, for others, it's actually in the app.

If you tap on "System" from the Battery Use screen, you should see "Included in this package". Anything in that list is run as a part of System (VPNs, Sync, etc).

Like roxxorz said, WiFi is a battery hog. Not sure why, but it really does drain, even when asleep.

Finally, check GPS and Wimax. If you have apps that use a lot of location-specific settings, you will get a dead battery quickly.

Hey guys as you may know gingerbread is running on almost every device now even my Droid Eris has 2.3 so I was wondering since the have cm7 for milestone now and it seems to be running pretty good and they can't flash custom kernels either I'd love to see 2.3 on this bad boy since got an almost 100% working froyo. Does anyone know what files are needed to get 2.3 up and running idc if anything works I just want it to mess with. Any input would be awesome.
[Milestone XT720 General] Riley600:
The bootloader isn't unlocked on the XT720. Gingerbread isn't possible unless Motorola decides to unlock it or releases 2.3 for it (which is extremely unlikely).
[Milestone XT720 General] Vistaus:
Did you even read his post? He talked about CM7 on the normal Milestone 1, which isn't unlocked either. CM 7 is based on 2.3 If it works on the Milestone 1 with locked bootloader, then chances are big it works on the XT720 too.
[Milestone XT720 General] easye420:
Yes milestone 1 has a locked bootloader just like us they just have more developers than we do. Dexter gave me some insight on how to get it running so I'm gonna give it a try.

I love my g1, but its time to move on soon, there comes a point when getting something to run on it for the sake of getting it to run becomes futile , by not moving on to better hardware we are ultimately missing out on the great features that an Android OS can give us when running on up to date hardware

you can open the superuser app from your app drawer and check the permissions and log to see if they're being blocked or not.

Okay. I have some important PDF files that I need to carry in my phone and I really want to keep them private. I have searched in the market for the application to hide the files, but it turns out that all those applications only provides us the way to hide only Pictures and Videos, which is obviously more demanding and so called private data.

My concern is, no matter how I store these documents, Adobe Reader always and always finds them and displays them. I don't know what's wrong with Adobe and why it is searching for all PDF documents in the SD card and displaying it to public.

I have made the following file/folder structures to make the files not to appear in the Adobe Reader, but failed every time. Adobe just find them somehow.

.folder/file.pdf

.folder/.folder1/file.pdf

.file.pdf

.folder/.file.pdf

.folder/.folder1/.file.pdf

I also have tried all above combinations by applying hidden and system attributes to the PDF files and those folders. But as its Linux, I failed.

So I did some research and though I'll just disallow adobe from accessing things, but when I went to security thing, it told me Adobe don't need anything. :eek:

Then why it is searching for my PDF files.

There is a way and only way to hide those files from Adobe is to change their extension to XPS ( :p ), but it isn't feasible and not something I'm looking for.

Kindly assist me. Thanks. :)
