[Captivate Themes and Apps] ugoff:
I believe Android limits the maximum resolution to 2x width of screen resolution. I'm not sure as I have no experience with other screen sizes and Android. Increase would require some depth of code manipulation that may result in more RAM use than would be practical.

I'm talking out of my ass here, but really, if Google thought the idea would have been practical, they probably would have implemented it to begin with, or in one of the many updates Android has had.

Maybe request the author of whatever 3rd party launcher you like make it an option. I'm sure the launcher programs can be written at the very least to place images over the home screen.

MultiPicture Live Wallpaper

This will allow you to have a different picture for each screen.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kangi26:
You could also try something like Flikie. I am not sure if it will manage images greater than 960x800 in resolution. Never tried it. Might be worth a shot

After the 2.3.3 update I noticed that the stock recovery, overwrites my Amon_ra . So that forced me to fastboot and install recovery everytime i wanted to something. ( This problem doesn't exist on pre-rooted stock rom 2.3.3 )

All credit goes to Amon_ra for his help

My of you might know this already, but i saw that some people were having trouble with this-

How to start-

1. Install ROM manager

2. Install Root explorer

Walla you'll have custom recovery!

Hope this helps

The guide in Wiki in my signature mentions the exact 2 files that need to be removed.
[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
Technically you only have to remove the shell script file that is doing the actual checking and replacing of the recovery. :)

Back to stock

Does that means that if we aren't modify the SPL protection, we can re-stock completly a phone without any clue that it have been rooted/moded one day?
[Nexus One General] Clarkster:
Yeah. There are several ways to get a phone back to stock without any evidence. If it was rooted with a hack, and the bootloader isn't unlocked you can find several tutorials on various ways to do it.
[Nexus One General] robotnoize:
Can you write out what the line says please.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
You can look in Wiki and:

1) download a script I made for flashing in custom recovery - removes those files.

2) see the lines in Recovery installation guides.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rikarudo:
So, I've upgraded my Nexus One with the OTA from Google and I've lost root, is it anyway to root my device again? I want my crack back!! :p preferably without unlocking the bootloader, something like universal androot, or z4 root (none of them work, at least market versions), thx for your answers
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siddharthsai:
I guess the only way is to unlock the bootloader. Why do you want it locked anyways? I guess your warranty is long gone + HTC doesn't check the unlocked bootloader as far as i know.

After unlocking you can install a custom recovery and use su.zip ( its there in the android dev section ) and flash it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rikarudo:
In guess I'll havce to unlock my bootloader then but I havent done it before so im kind of scared, just find it way more complicated doing it that way that whit the mentioned exploits, like universal androot: click root, install room manager, enjoy
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Know-Fear:
You're kidding right? It takes 30 seconds to unlock the bootloader, install a custom recovery, and another minute to install a custom ROM and reboot. I had mine done as soon as I took it out of the shipping box.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER. All you have to do is roll back to a build of Froyo. Search for PASSIMG.zip. Apply that through the bootloader. Then you can root using Super One Click or any of the other methods and flash a rooted GB ROM.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirk:
..But an hour to learn about and set up the SDK first ;) Once done though it makes life sooo much easier and gives you a lot more versatility.

That.

An hour might be more or less - depends on a user.

I have to ask the question, why go to all that bother just to not have a unlocked padlock on the bootscreen when it really makes no difference?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rikarudo:
I think I can make it in less than an hour, lol, anyway, i just wanted to root again because i thought that after OTA the call wonkyness in CM7 got fixed, but it seems is still there, so I'll stay with official GB for a while or untill my abstinence syndrom comes back, and in that case ill try with passimg method just becuase it is a pain in the a55 to setup the SDK (I've done it before, too much data to download and Im currently reliying in thetering to have internet at home).Thnx for your answers.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
The only benefit is aesthetics, if it really matters to you. I don't much care for the lockscreen, lol. Aside from that, you're right..unlocking the bootloader isn't any worse. It's just personal preference. My point is that you never HAVE to unlock the bootloader.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bohlool:

Having the bootloader unlocked is the easiest way to do anything.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MitchRapp:
Still, for people who just want to root it with a 1-click method, what's the way to do it for 2.3.3?

I used rageagainstthecage for 2.2, then used SuperOneClick for 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 ..... What now with 2.3.3 ?

EDIT: I should mention that most users (like me) want to root their phones without flashing this and that, losing all data/preferences along the way. We just want our phone to be exactly how it is now, down to the last shortcut ...... but rooted!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CLShortFuse:
Gingerbreak... when it's released.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hollow.Droid:
It's already been stated, use PASSIMG.zip method to downgrade to 2.2 or whatever you'd like then root. There is currently no way to root a 2.3.3 ROM with any sort of 1 click.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
There is, but it's not 1-click - having unlocked bootloader allows you to flash SU and change permissions accordingly.

Those demanding 1-click will have to wait until there is any 1-click solution - and this might take time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MitchRapp:
I just tried unlocking my bootloader but it says I'm missing AdbWinApi.dll ... I have it though. I've used the SDK for rooting before without any errors like this. Must be my day...

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
If you upgraded a rooted device - you can also try the "RErooting guide", in one of the threads where you've asked if it's wiping the whole device. It doesn't. But it might not work without unlocked bootloader - I'm not sure that locked fastboot allows you to boot non-stock, even to memory using "fastboot boot" command. If it does - it's a rooting option completely overlooked until now.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
I am not trying to be mean or anything but if you can update your phone manually for a ota I really don't want to hear all this I don't want to flash stuff.

if you talking of loosing apps and settings, titanium backup helps there.. apps + data + settings.. al get backed up you know.. :)

Hello fellow xda folks.

Just managed to bag myself a couple of X8's payg's on O2 from Tesco for silly prices (£44.97 each incl £10 credit).

Only just received them, will fire up shortly to upgrade to 2.1 then I'll do a comparison against my San Fransisco:D

Was hoping to unlock and use them on Vodafone or Giffgaff - but the unlock prices are ridiculous, it'll be nearly as much to unlock as the phone cost me:rolleyes:

Anyone tried using a Turbosim or the Dealextreme equivalent to allow it to use any sim?

Does anyone know how to change how photos/videos are stored in the DCIM folder? Back when I was on stock, photos went to DCIM/photos and videos in DCIM/videos. Since I've been running custom ROMs (Bionix), they instead both store in DCIM/camera. Does anyone know if it's possible to change that? I can't find an option in the camera setting beyond saving to internal vs external sd, and as best I can find, this hasn't been addressed anywhere on the forums (probably because it's a pretty insignificant preference issue... I'm just OCD about my directory structure and the Gallery layout... :)

[G2 and Desire Z General] derricks2:
I rooted my phone with the G2 walkthrough in the forums. It had me install Superuser Permissions, which worked at first. Now when I try to use something that required root access it just tells me I do not have root access. When I open the super user program, it just sits at a blank black screen. When I open up a new app(like the 3 different screenshot apps I downloaded) the apps open and tell me I do not have root access. I do have root access because I can get Titanium Backup to run and it also requires root access. I cannot remove/uninstall Superuser Permissions to swap it with another working super user app.

I saw this article http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=682828

I tried to install that app from the market and it fails to install(I assume due to the fact that I already have a super user app running). That said I cannot remove the installed app(thats not working). In that article it says to open terminal and type a "remount" command that may be different for each phone. I tried the command that they suggested(for his Nexus) but it did not seem to work on my G2.

So what do I do? Does anyone know what command I need to run from terminal to complete those directions to get a functioning Superuser app working? Does anyone know how to fix the existing "Superuser Permissions" app? Any suggestions?
[G2 and Desire Z General] jmollabi:
try a reboot
[G2 and Desire Z General] derricks2:
I already have. The Superuser Permissions app still only comes up with a black screen. No options when I hit "menu" and it does continue to stay active after I back out to the home screen as it does show up in the Task Killer list. That said, I am not getting a pop up that asks if I want to give an app superuser access. The apps that I alraedy had given permissions to(like Titanium Backup) still work fine, but no new app that require SU access will work.

Any other suggestions.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ianmcquinn:
Have you tried clearing data for the Superuser app? See if that resets it to a working state.
[G2 and Desire Z General] brfield:
did you do a perma root or temp root? If you did the Temp root, then the reboot caused you to lose your root. You need to re temp root then do the perma root.
[G2 and Desire Z General] derricks2:
Its perm root. I still have the temp root app on the SD card(not installed) but its perm rooted.
[G2 and Desire Z General] derricks2:
Well.. not only did that not work, it made it worse. Now my titanium backup(that I have accessed daily for weeks since I rooted my phone) tells me I am not rooted after I cleared the data from the super user program...

And...

Now when I go to terminal and type su I dont get the # anymore.. it says permission denied...

AND

I tried using Visionary for a temp root, and after it trys to temp root, I still cant access SU from terminal.

I have not updated my OS to my knowledge.

Any ideas?
[G2 and Desire Z General] derricks2:
Anyone have any insight into this??

At this point my phone basically isnt rooted anymore. I have even tried visionary and it seems to temp root but nothing works.. I can get SU in terminal etc....

Superuser Permissions is still installed but doesnt work.

I tried using Visionary to remove root. It says my phone doesnt appear to be rooted.

Soo at this point, my phone has none of the advantages of being rooted, yet it is technically rooted(because I cant re-root it the same way using visionary and terminal).

What can I do??

I see they aren't standard android apps tho =(

I'll browse and see what I come up with. I appreciate the link !

**edit**

Yes, any help you can give would be great, I have never made icons and don't have any software for it. I'd like to give it a go tho so I can make some android icons out of these.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
I made a quick Photoshop Template. I believe you can open it in GIMP as well (a free image editing software) You should be able to use it to create this effect simply by using the top layer template to make a selecting of the filled in area and then deleting that selection on the icon you want to use. This may seem confusing if you dont have a lot of experience but its pretty simple. I put 2 examples in it as well. Just remember to always save it as a .png if you want it to be an icon and keep the clear background.

If you still have problems PM me and i will try to write out a more in depth tutorial ( i use photoshop personally so I may have to download gimp and play around to get specific)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Rippley05:
Thanks again, I'll google Gimp and see what I come up with. I'm really just after gmail and maps so I should be able to google Gimp and see what I come up with. I appreciate the help =)

No problem If those are the only two you want and dont figure it out I can just make them for you. I think you should try first as a good way to learn if you are interested in making icons in the future makes a great starting point for you.

Good Luck with it!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Rippley05:
Yea, I'm playing with it now... prolly gonna take a while to figure it out lol.

I tried to save the pandora icon you sent but it became blurry and didn't look right for some reason

Would you mind making those 2 for me while I play with this? I'll just use yours in my set and try to figure out how to work gimp with them as well.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
Where did it become blurry. I resized the img to 72 x 72 pixels which is the standard icon size so it is possible it looks blurry when blown up but should look fine as an icon on your phone. I will work on those 2 and get you them in a minute
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Rippley05:
I was playing with it in gimp, and I done something to mess it up. Just not sure what it was I did lol
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
ah well its all part of learning just dont save the PSD file while it is messed up. See attached for 2 different Gmails, a Maps and the pandora one. Sorry took so long am at work and had to finish something up. I also threw in the PSD with these new icons saved inside it as well as more examples.

I have no idea what those are, but if it's a market app then I would have to say yes.
[Captivate General] jpinks:
Ok forgive the stupid question but what does KB1 modem do for your phone? Increase internet speed?? or what??
[Captivate General] ryude:
I can see you do not understand what a modem is, so I will do my best to explain it in simple terms.

A modem is what modulates and demodulates a signal wave in the air, allowing you to send and receive messages/phone calls/data. It is also known as a baseband. It takes digital data and converts it into an analog signal (the waves in the air) and the recipient converts it back into digital information again.

Each modem is designed to specifically work with a certain phone and firmware version. Do not mix i9000 modems with captivate kernels or vice versa.

Depending on the area you live in, certain modems will give you better battery/signal reception/call quality/download speeds.
[Captivate General] jpinks:
Ok I understand about the baseband. Just wasnt connecting it with the Modem in my brain. How does the 3G data reception do with that modem? That is a concern as I use internet from phone on work. I am in the Midwest Kansas City area but travel alot on work.
[Captivate General] ryude:
Well you can only use KB1 with captivate ROMs, Precision won't work with it.

KB1 for me has slower data speeds than i9000 modems like JK4 and JL2. Also the GPS doesn't seem as fast.
[Captivate General] jpinks:
Should I use Odin to install this rom, also the link to it in the GUIDE thread doesnt seem to be working anymore. Where Can I get Odin???
