I changed my google acc password on pc, but somehow android can still log in without problem. Refreshing/clear data/sync on gmail didn't prompt me for new password.

is it because i'm using g authenticator?

cheers,
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkrstf:
Finally I managed to get S-OFF and move the rest of my apps from /data/apps to /system/apps (instead of SD) (with simply Root Explorer and reboot) but there is this huge HTC_IME.apk which is my favourite keyboard but I can't activate it when it's moved to /system/apps, it force closes.

Is there a way to make it work from the /system partition?

I'm also working on to understand how to move the /dalvik-cache to /system or /cache but despite the symlink /data/dalvik-cache recreates after reboot. Should I really apply that script to /system/etc/init.d or is there any other way?

Thank you in advance.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asp2010:
I'm not S-OFF, so I can't really say about moving the dalvik cache to /system, but I do know there are scripts to move it to /cache (make sure your cache partition if big enough!) or to the sd card. Do a google search and you should find everything you need ;)

About the HTC IME, I don't use this keyboard, but this is what I found while moving some of my apps to /system: some apps (such as Adobe Flash or SoundHound) install libraries which they require to work. This libraries are found in /data/data/package_name/lib, where package_name is the name of your app. For most apps, you can just copy the libs to /system/lib (not in any folder in lib), but I haven't managed to get Flash to work from there, although everything else works fine. I suppose there is another option to make a symlink from the lib folder in /data/data/some_apps_folder to /system/lib if the app won't find the lib after you moved it to the folder in /system, as I've read in some thread, but I haven't tested this, so I can't say if it works or not.

Good luck!:cool:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkrstf:
Thank you, I moved dalvik-cache and applied the script - it works, with Adobe Flash and some basic apps installed (a few of them moved to /system/apps including the 5MB HTC_IME.apk with its lib file) I have now 60MB free space (compared to the 15MB I had before. wow/lol). I think it's quite enough to get the feeling of freedom when it comes to trying out just a little more apps without getting a full storage warning.

I was also thinking about repartitioning the internal storage but I'm afraid it's better to leave it as it is because of warranty - just in case.

I need help creating a boot animation.

I've made the animation, it's 45 .png images.

I just have no idea how to make it a boot animation for my phone i've replaced the images from other boot animations with my own and my phone will just start in about half a second. and like I never turned it to sleep.

what do I do?

could someone try and make it into a boot animation?

the file attached is my images put into another boot animation, the fps (i think) changed in the text file, and re zipped.

I need some advice. My wife dropped her HTC evo and its pretty dinged up. The bad part us the screen is really scratched up now. (I feel bad for her cause she loves her phone).I totally forgot to get her the insurance on it. She's had the phone for about 2 months. Am I screwed with sprint replacing the.phone for me cause she doesn't have the tep? Thanks for the help.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iSaint:
Im not to sure bro but i think that even without the insurance if you go into a sprint store they will fix wear and tear but you have to pay a 35$ fee or something.

Maybe this might give you more info

[Nexus S General] n61adm:
For Wind customers "Wind Home" now shows correctly! Reception seems better as well. :)
[Nexus S General] alpha300:
Yeh I noticed that now
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
looking forward to see that once i fix the dead SNS
[Nexus S General] profets:
I noticed this too. It shows WIND Home or WIND Away once you are connected to the network. But doing a network search still shows 302490 or Rogers Wireless.
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
confirmed :D

finally !!! we see the correct names

seems like enough people complained to google about it :p
[Nexus S General] neuromatico:
Not me.

In Network Operators/Available Networks, I still see "302490", "302320" (which won't register with my SIM) and "Rogers Wireless".

I'm in Toronto. Where are you located?
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
in the unlock screen

you need 2.3.3
[Nexus S General] johoja:
It only changes after you are registered, i.e) in the search window list you don't see the name, but when your connected you see it in the lock screen etc.
[Nexus S General] neuromatico:
"WIND" doesn't appear on my unlock screen or in the notification area, but then I haven't updated to 2.3.3. (Should have read the thread's title!)

I guess I'll take the plunge. Thanks!

EDIT: I've updated and now see "WIND Home".

OT, but I prefer the new colour temperature: closer to 6500K.
[Nexus S General] profets:
Just installed CM7 today, and noticed the lockscreen & pull down tray are back to showing MNC instead of WIND Home.
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
that's a CM7 ROM specific problem

the stock ROM shows the WIND Home properly
[Nexus S General] profets:
Yeah, figured as much.. Was curious what was added in stock 2.3.3 to cause the name to show..

And just now on mine with CM7 it started showing WIND Home. Weird.

[Galaxy Tab General] gophet:
my gtab was never able to pair with my 3 differeny bluetooth headsets. flahsed 1.4 euro kernel and loaded modoco rom, now they all pair and work perfectly.
[Galaxy Tab General] ordio:
Did you try to do a basic factory reset after the original flash?

I loaded modaco and my tab wouldnt work with bluetooth. Once i did the reset bluetooth worked fine.

Glad to see you got your bluetooth working.
[Nexus S General] FlyingRequin:
I had a NS with a back button that used to get stuck and i exchanged that NS for a new one. Since then i did not have the issue. Here comes 2.3.3 and the little monster is back. I have seen it twice in the past few hours. Google fix this ASAP or this phone is going back for good.

Anyone else with this problem?
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
That's not good!! I had this issue occasionally (never exchanged the phone though) and so far since 2.3.3 it's not happened.

I would strongly suggest raising the issue on the google support forums - there is an existing thread from before the 2.3.3 update which as it happens was meant to fix the problem......

http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=455215ff8747658b&hl=en&start=40
[Nexus S General] kikikaka:
Mine is N1, I also got back button problem occasionally since 2.3.3. I press the Back, I feel the vibration, but there is no action. I should retry few times.

I guess this is 2.3.3 bug.
[Nexus S General] dryspuri:
u know i had this issue on stock 2.3.2, both home and search was not working, then i wiped data & cache from stock recovery, and then it started working again, worth giving a try!!!
[Nexus S General] deeren:
back button is very irresponsive in 2.3.3 !!! i thought google was supposed to fix that s**t. instead it has got even worse for me.
[Nexus S General] CB620:
my back button is very responsive maybe you need to reflash.
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
OK I take back what I said previously, this has started happening to me again now. In fact I'd say it's worse than it was before.

I have no idea what to do other than trying to exchange the phone which will probably be a nightmare because I've had it since early January..........
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
weird cause i read people saying that if their phone had a back button issue it was fixed with 2.3.3
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
Well I've taken it back to the carphone warehouse where I bought it, they are going to attempt a repair..............will hopefully end up with an exchange for a new handset - i'll keep you posted.
[Nexus S General] RogerPodacter:
Well the nexus one never had this problem at all, never. And now since the update it too has this issue. So that's pretty solid proof to me that this problem exists and needs to be fixed by Google.
[Nexus S General] kwhy:
I have non rooted nexus s 2.3.2 and noticed this for the first time last night. Back button key would either stick and/or be un responsive (light would turn off).

I wonder I'd this be a memory issue in that it might occur more frequently when the device is low. Notice a lot of apps run services around midnight and in the morning when this is happening for me..

I have also seen problems with green screen from flash when memory is low.

Closing some apps seems to solve this.

Just a thought. Hope this is not a sign of a hardware failure.
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
I'm waiting to collect my "repaired" Nexy - wondering what if anything they will have done to try and fix it.....

Feel naked without my phone........
[Nexus S General] bogdi1988:
Take off battery cover. Tighten up a bit the screws on the back of the phone. See if that changes anything. I experienced that a little while ago, tightened the screws and now all's good. Haven't seen a single issue since. 2.3.2 and 2.3.3 :)
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
Well I dont have the phone right now but I'll certainly give this a try if the problem happens again once I have the phone back.

Out of interest what size/type of driver do you need to fit the screw heads??

Thanks!!! :)
[Nexus S General] bogdi1988:
a small philips head screw driver
[Nexus S General] kurtlou:
same problem with me. I upgrade to 2.3.3, the back button will stick for several seconds especially when you hit back key very fast and repeat after fast scrolling the screen.

I flash back to 2.3.2, change rom, not install apps, the problem is still there. And even in bootloader, the issue is still there.
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
I've just been told my phone is being sent to some central repair hub and might take 28 days to get back to me :-(

will probably get scratched to bits and still wont be fixed.....

Guess I'll have to dig out the old Sony handset to keep me going for a few weeks..today is a bad phone day...
[Nexus S General] moon-unit:
Well I picked up the phone today and noticed a few things where different, firstly I now have an unlocked padlock icon at the bottom of the bootscreen - On checking recovery it would seem my bootloader has been unlocked....

Secondly it was running 2.3.1 which I also found odd?

Going charge it up and do a manual update to 2.3.3 using the full 90mb ROM, wonder if the back button issue has been fixed......? the repair notes said the PCB had been checked and cleaned......

I'll keep you posted.
[Defy General] ABC_Universal:
I wonder if anyone have similar issues and any suggestions.

In my case defy cannot send files exceeding 300K to my windows7 laptop. Smaller files have no problem. My other phones (not motolora) have no problem sending files of any size.

Also after upgrading to orange 2.2 rom, the laptop can no longer send .apk, .zip etc to the phone. The phone would only accept extensions lik .png, .jpg etc. Rename .apk etc to .png works though. It was possible with the original 2.51.0 rom. This appears related to security settings but I cannot find the relevant settings.
[Defy General] ABC_Universal:
Hmm... no one else has these problems? :confused:
[Touch Cruise Android Development] alzabine:
Guys, I have tried to install android froyo on my polaris by using both Nand and HaRet method, but once i tried it, it seems so slow, even just for pressing call button i need to wait for about 3 seconds till the menu comes out.. And when i tried to run some program ( I have installed Facebook for android, Tweetdeck, foursquare) it crashed very often, sometimes freeze.

For camera, i know that there is a limitation that makes it doesn't work well. But why does the android run so slow on polaris? is that because i got the wrong installation method? or it is merely because the android itself wasn't designed to work on polaris?

Anyway my current MicroSD card is Transcend MicroSDHC 8GB Class 6...
[Desire Themes and Apps] Bradshort:
Hi guys, I use an app which i sourced here called Transproxy, which enables me to enter an http proxy for wifi access at work.

I have also set a profile up in Tasker that opens the app when i am in close proximity of the work wifi signal so i can then turn on the transproxy settings.

I haven't been able to use tasker to set the proxy automatically for me tho!

Has anyone managed to do this or has another method that would automate this for me?
[HD7 General] gasanpride:
I know this was an issue an issue in the past for older phones. With the recent high tech phone/smartphones/battery, I am just wondering if this is still an issue today.

The reason I am asking, I experimented and let my HD7 stand still without using it with the wi-fi on then and wi-fi off for almost a day for both and appears that I have the same battery remaining. I wish I could see the percentage use but looking at the icon itself appears the same to me.

Any other thoughts?
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
So, a pretty nifty thing about this phone/OS, is when the screen turns off, it automatically kills the WiFi. When you turn it back on, it connects again.

This is how they're able to conserve battery life. The only downside, is if you were downloading say a big game, via WiFi, and the screen times out, WiFi dies and so does your download unfortunately. I was able to get the download to resume once, but usually not.
[HD7 General] sumedh_vsk:
i think wifi doesnt consume any battery at all when its "just connected", only when a upload or download is going on , you might find the difference...
[HD7 General] Strike_Eagle:
No, you are wrong. Even stay disconnect, the Wifi Module will keep searching for the new wifi spot and it kills the battery a lot. Than why i usually switch my Wifi Off (both my HD7 and my old HD2) when i am not going to use it
[HD7 General] wheresmybeaver:
For the first time with a smartphone I've been leaving the Wifi on all the time, since it doesnt seem to really impact the battery that much. I'd only turn it off if I know I'm going to be a day or two out of Wifi coverage, just to save me having to grab a charger.

With my TD2, having Wifi on all the time not only shagged the battery but also slowed down the UI and made the phone hot as hell.
[HD7 General] hukkguai:
With Android I would have to keep my Wifi off because it would kill my battery but on my HD7 I leave my Wifi AND bluetooth on all day and I still get pretty good battery life. I only charge once at the end of the day.
[HD7 General] aquanaut88:
the wireless radios, bluetooth & wifi, are so much more polished and refined as compared to the those in WM5/6. With WM, used to flash new radios posted on xda to acheive better reception/power consumption performance. WP7 does it right out of the box...

btw, you can set 'notify when new networks found' to off. If not needed by you, probably save some juice.

cheers

HD7 hw0002
[HD7 General] prjkthack:
I believe the only thing that changes is that it doesn't tell you when it finds new networks, but it's still always on and searching. So it shouldn't make much of a battery difference on or off.

That being said, this is the first phone where I have left Wi-Fi on at all times and I get awesome battery life. Actually, my battery period has just been great. No complaints about how long the phone lasts. Much more than any Android or Windows Mobile phones I've used in the past.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kasrhp:
I browsed and couldn't find if these were already answered, but here I go. Using DVP.

1) Contacts pictures when they call, even when they are pinned to tile on home screen are blurry. Is this a WP7 issue? The pictures are not the issue, they were taken with Sony NEX5, and are good quality. I emailed an original pic for one, and then did a Zune sync with the other.

2) My browser bounces around. If I am reading an article, the browser pops down about 1/3 of a page, like it's scrolling, and then pops back into place. Any site, no rhyme or reason.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sure haven't:
I think the blurry pictures thing is a known bug. Check the bugs thread.

As the browser thing, I've never heard of that one before. But you never know, sometimes my phone's camera button won't wake it up, and I've never seen that bug noted anywhere else either.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamreez:
The picture issue is not a bug of the phone but a limitation of google (or windows live)

The pictures are scaled down considerably by google when the contacts are synced and these synced pictures hence look distorted..
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sure haven't:
Interesting, didn't know that.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jim Coleman:
That's because you're covering the proximity sensor with your other hand. That's a feature to sto pthe camera button activating the phone when it's in your pocket. Try using the camera button while keeping your mitts away from the sensor and it'll work every time.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sure haven't:
Well lookee here. I'm apparently learning a lot in this thread.

Just tried that, and it worked fine, many thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kasrhp:
I was thinking that might be the issue. Is there anything I can do to fix that issue? Or it just is what it is when you sync the accounts? Obviously not a big deal, but a little annoying.

As for the browser jumping around, I'll get some video of it in action in the next cpl days.

[Nook Color General] Caspar07:
Honeycomb on Nook is awesome, the work done here is impressive. Congratulations! :cool:

I want to try it out, giving a Nook Honeycomb, and use it instead of a Moto Xoom (it's impressive, but I doesn't need the big screen, HDMI, cameras, dual-core CPU...)

what I need is a small tablet so that I can:

# browse and read news etc.

# use Gmail

# watch a few videos (YouTube or files)

# maybe read e-books (Kindle, B&N)

# run various small apps (maybe some games) - from Android Market

And I want:

# 6" or 7" display

# low weight

# long battery life

# WiFi

# 3G through a Bluetooth connection to my phone

# and low cost

Thats not an 800 USD Xoom for that. But a Nook with HoneyComb!

I'm not a developer but a relatively technical user, so I'm not afraid of buying a Nook and try out some stuff.

But I have som questions and would like some input. I may have misunderstood things and I apologize for stupid questions.

First decisions/questions:

1; what is eMMC? I can see that I should choose between SD or EmmC, so this is probably a fairly basic decision.

2; I gather I need to choose which port of Honeycomb to use. Right? (I have listed a few below).

3; it appears to be possible to either boot Android Honeycomb from the SD-card. Does that mean I can use the Nook as it was delivered if the SD card isn't present?

4; Is there any other basic decisions I need to take?

There's lots of posts here, and I've been reading back and forth, and from what I see this is what I need:

# get a Nook

# get a microSD card. Is there any recommendations?

# get a Honeycomb image/build. Could be:

# overclock the Nook to 1 or 1.1 GHz

Is this too deep water for me or should I plunge in?! :D
[Nook Color General] altimax98:
I personally think that you should dive in. Now first emmc is the name of the nooks internal memory.

I would recommend buying one and first using a micro SD to boot honeycomb and decide if you want to run it. It's a great port and great os but its not prime time yet on the nook.. I use it only, and even with its faults it is too 'tablet friendly' for me to switch.

YouTube is tricky at best. Ill let someone with more experience post about it. In my experience it's not real reliable for some reason

[Nook Color General] knucklesmckay:
I love my nook color, and it has a bright future. But u mentioned you wanted 3g and Bluetooth. Those are not available as of yet on nook color. I'm not sure if it has those internal components or not.

But it is a very capable device. Mine is setup comparable to the galaxy tab I would say, after rooting it and adding a custom rom.
[Nook Color General] Caspar07:
Thanks for the answers so far!

I can live without 3G/BlueTooth.

And I can live without YouTube. That will probably fixed along the way.

Is the current Honeycomb builds based on a prerelease SDK or is considered a final release?
[Nook Color General] lyam23:
You can't use bluetooth for data, but you could certainly tether your nook to your smartphone. That's what I plan to do when I find myself without a wireless connection.

EDIT: Oh and you could visit the actual youtube website if you have flash installed (on a 2.2 or higher ROM).
[Nook Color General] BanditRider:
Definately dive in. Buy a few microSD cards. Start by rooting the stock firmware and play with a launcher and the market. It's the most stable.

Install Honeycomb on an SD card and boot it. It's not bad but will be much improved in the next few weeks.

No bluetooth yet but you can wifi tether to your phone if your phone supports it.
[Nook Color General] Caspar07:
"Rooting stock firmware"?

Does that mean sort of copying the firmware, so You can restore later?

Again: good replies, much appreciated :)
