[Windows Phone 7 General] solidsnakejv37:
Yeah i've heard that there have been many issues with the samsung and the microSD. I have a feeling that sprint might get the iphone this summer, since it is in June that Iphone always releases their new phone.

I really like the TP2, but i really want a bigger screen and was disappointment with the fact that they left it the same and no microSD slot. I was at the store yesterday and the HTC surround is definitely built better than the samsung, which felt extremely light, but the screen is tremendous and the screen is bigger (i have fairly large fingertips).

HD7 would be my ideal phone, but i think the screen is too dull compared to the samsung screen, and it doesn't have a microSD, besides tmobile isn't getting the iphone sooner than Sprint.

The reason why i think i'll be better with AT&T is because if sprint does get a phone i really like i can always get the world version of it and just slip my sim card in it.

Milestone A853 hang on M logo i will try openrecovery method

flash with CM7 latest rom but no luck where is experts in MOTOROLA

Pls solve this issu i have 2 pcs in same problam.. :confused:
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] James91:
First, stay calm

I have once encountered this problem and solved it quickly.

You have to follow the procedure stated.

1. Remove battery.

2. Wait for a while (1-2min)

3. insert battery and the moto logo should disappear and the phone is now turned off.

4. Press "volume up" button and "power" button at the same time

Your phone will enter bootloader mode.

5. Connect your phone to computer with your usb

6. Open rsd lite in your computer (a software for flashing rom)

7.click the option "device" at the top left hand corner of RSD lite and choose first come first serviced basis

8. At this moment, rsdlite should have detected your phone and detail is shown on the right hand side

9. Download official sbf and load it in rsdlite.

10. Click start to flash it.

Your phone would reboot and go back to stock rom.

Good luck!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] James91:
Remember that if you do any updates, wipe all.

Otherwise you will always stuck at the logo
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] fahadz:
thanks bro i wil try your mathod and tell u
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] fahadz:
brother i cant understand to this line

7.click the option "device" at the top left hand corner of RSD lite and choose first come first serviced basis
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] fahadz:
hello James where r u i need your help..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] James91:
Sorry bro, I got it wrong

There is a config option at the top left hand corner,

Click it, and then click deviceID,

Select first come first served

As long as you can see your phone detected by rsdlite,

You can flash rom
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Rotundjere:
you can just: Nandroid > Restore All

everything will back to normal (older ROM of course) :D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Rotundjere:
@James91: Flashing SBF isn't necessary,

@fahadz: if you have sdcard, you can put it to another phone (sdcard reader) & try to extract Open Recovery (and custom ROM),

after that you can press Power button + X to enter the recovery menu

select apply update

select one of the ROM..

wipe Dalvik cache

wipe everything :D

Guess what?

you fix your Stone, and you get new ROM installed ;D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] njmata:
If you're flashing a rom for the first time you need to apply all wipe first.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] James91:
bro, you are right.....

but i would prefer flashing sbf through rsdlite to using nandroid backup

Reason??

Just feel more secure to use the former.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] joscos:
I do have problem on sbf flash. RSDLite just not read my stone. after change to first come first, unplug stone, plug back restart rsd than work like charm.
[Epic 4G General] tclarkey:
When you buy an app from Market, where does it store the downloaded .apk?
[Epic 4G General] treyxazn:
On the epic is the "my files" located in applications and it should be in folder "download" on your SD.
[Epic 4G General] tclarkey:
Thanks, I know about the download folder on the SD card, but that doesn't have what I am looking for.

For example, you download from the Market a free app, say The Weather Channel. Does that store the .apk file somewhere on the phone since it's not on the SD card?
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Yeah apps go to the phones memory
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
they are in the phone storage. i use an app called "app backup/reinstall" to pull the apks from my phone. its in the market.
[Epic 4G General] drplaud:
APKs are stored in your device's system/app folder.
[Epic 4G General] tclarkey:
That's what I was looking for! Thanks!!

any ideas??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Are you trying to do it through recovery or the adb method? If through adb [cuz you got the read only message I presume] type in adb remount, and then start again, and you should be straight.

Edit: 1000 :eek:
[Nook Color General] derekr:
Anybody else with this problem? It happened to me about a day ago in HC v4. The "Top Free" and "Recent" categories still show up.

Others have reported this problem with phones, and suggested Market Enabler to fix it. I've tried it (even though it doesn't seem relevant for the NC) - no luck. I've cleared the Market cache and done a forced close and reboot, still not working.

It has also been blamed on "Airplane Mode" in the Wireless settings. Not checked, and never has been in this case.

Any suggestions? Thanks...

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnp888:
I managed to root and install cm7rc1 with the newest radio and when i went back into fastboot, I noticed that S-ON was activated again. did a search and discovered that crazy HTC sets security and somehow i undid my S-OFF. I was going to use the .exploid root method but i can't write to the phone anymore. I think i still have clockworkmod recovery. so am i still rooted? can i even flash an OTA update. any suggestions? thanks.

(update: in my haste i forgot the search, i'll delete this if i find a solution)
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projektdotnet:
To figure out if you still have root you can go into Terminal and type "su" if superuser comes up, you accept and it changes the symbol to a # then you're still root but you may not be S-OFF anymore.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kitila:
First off if u just rooted it it will still have s on the only way to get soff is wilt the alpharev exploit and only way to lose soff is to reflash the hboot and cm7 does not do that so I think u never had soff unless u did the alpharev
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnp888:
After much reading I think I finally understand. I've been spoiled with the nexus one which obviously doesn't have this problem. This is my wife's phone. I thought that after rooting I would get s-off. Anyway, I guess without s-off I have to always update.zip into clockworkmod recovery to flash a cm rom? I am still unclear how to alpharev. Sounds like I need to burn a utility CD and then the app automatically forces s-off. Will need to read more. Thanks for the replies/help

It looks like the announcement of the iPad 2 is making Samsung rethink it's pricing strategy on the Galaxy 10.1. We can only hope that Xoom follows suit.
[Xoom General] funnycreature:
Would be too late for me! I got it for $600 anyway but i don't think Moto will budge in general. Perhaps with limited time offers.

Customer always win at the end when that happen!
[Xoom General] DroidzFX:
Its a nice tab I just dont like Samsungs update policy.
[Xoom General] hi_its_ryan:
I wonder if they will be better with the updates since the galaxy tab 10.1 is supposedly a Android 3.0 reference device (no touchWiz)
[Xoom General] angermeans:
I can care less about anything made by Samsung. They need to rethink its policy on how they treat their customers here in the states it is rediculous that it has taken them so long to come out with froyo and I am fairly certain since they are coming to market with new phones that the galaxy lineup is not going to gingerbread. They get your money and leave you and move to the next. They really need to think a little more and get rid of the horrible touchwiz interface. Bad implememtation of the file system (even my mom and fiance hat that their fascinate lags so much), cheaply made plastic phones, and especiallystill no support for GPS. I don't know what they are doing but they sure as hell aren't supporting the phones they sold this last year. I will never buy anything samsung I know I would be pretty upset if I bought the galaxytab and now the price gets cut numerous times nd is being abandoned left with a phone is.
[Xoom General] calin75:
Even though I don't like Apple, the iPad 2 looks too irresistible, and with those prices Apple is winning this battle for now. The first iPad is now down to $399, and for somebody like me, who mainly wants apps, games, and movies, sounds like a no-brainer. That's the reason why I returned my xoom; lack of apps and games, no option to buy or rent movies, and for $799 plus tax I felt disrespected. Somebody better do something ASAP or else.

And yes! I'm whining!
[Android Themes] MdsWesker:
hi,

i don't know how to set a different wallpaper for each homescreen in launcherpro

thanks

P.S. im not allowed to post a direct link so i cant give you an example
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
Press the Menu button on your device

Now press Wallpaper

Choose one

Win.

EDIT: Just realized it was multiple wallpapers.

Wallpaper Plus also does the job.
[Android Themes] pamplinas:
Search for multipicture wallpaper in the market,is free and is awesome.
[Android Themes] ThtOthrPrsn:
I recommend Wallpaper Plus, it's better
[Android Themes] Shiwantha:
Dose any one know how to customize home screen icons in the launcherpro.

Means rename or change icons

Cheers
[Android Themes] papertreeprophet:
Depends on what icons you are talking about. In terms of the dock, just long press on a dock item, and click the change icon option when the menu opens.

As for icons on the homescreen itself, you can change an applications shortcut icon whenever you create it. Just long press on the homescreen, Select Shortcuts, then Applications, Pick an App, then click its icon to change it.

You can also use Desktop Visualizer - http://www.appbrain.com/app/desktop-visualizer/jp.co.bii.android.app.dskvzr

This will let you set make custom widgets in many sizes and set the image for them to what you want. This will allow you to use oversized icons, or even custom designs such as the WP7 designs you might see around here.

Hope that answers your question ;)
[Android Themes] Shiwantha:
Thanks 4 da answer,:D but I was referring to the home screen icons, not docks.

kind of the way ADW offers, I was looking for an alternative like bettercut. cause It dosnet work.

Cheers
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
Like he said; Desktop VisualizeR.
[Android Themes] Shiwantha:
well thats in widget state, Just have to live with it for now........

Thanks all for the comments........:):)

PS, I couldn't click thanks4 papertreeprophet. cause its limited for each day.. :D
[Android Themes] rockon83:
when creating the shortcut, at the screen where you can rename the shortcut, click the icon, and it will allow you to choose whatever you'd like.
[Android Themes] hettbeans:
Instead of placing icons on your homescreen from the app drawer, long-press on the homescreen and go to shortcut, that will let you choose the icon and name. This only works for apps, not folders.
[Galaxy Tab General] papatzis:
Hi to all

Today when I try to open camera appplication in my Tab it crashes,( I have the nessage Problem, camera failed ) the same happens if I try to open applications that uses the camera, they also crash, in the camera 360Ultimate app, I got "camera initiliazation error".

I add applications in the tab, 3 days before it was working, I have Euro tab with Roto V2 Rom.

I don't know if a application is causing the problem...

Thanks in advance

Update

I have found probably the cause of the problem. I had deleted the main email application, because I had put K-9, searching the net I found out that some galaxy tab owners searching for the cause of the probem, they found out that the stock email app, is camera dependant.( If you delete email, camera app is not working )

I had made backup of all apps with Titanium before I delete them, but I cannot restore the app, I select the email app, press restore, it said restore Ok, but the application is not installed again.

Has anyone the stock email application to upload to me? or there is a way ,manually to install the application?
[Galaxy Tab General] pvde:
Use Root Explorer to put Email.apk in folder /system/app.

Reboot.

Other forum users had the same problem.

This might seem Pedantic, but a well typed search on eBay (for me at least) found one or 2 where people have dropped their HD and now the screen broke or any number of issues. Maybe something you could work with?

or "Desire HD BROKEN" found a few butter-fingered users ;)

Try one of the earlier ports of the DHD rom maybe? the ones where the camera wouldn't work, as it probably has the drivers needed for the DHD camera...which you've just installed :)

im using t-mod insert a coin dhd rom.. cuz im telstra next g

what do u mean drivers the any dhd rom should have the 8mp cam drivers

my video recording doesnt work on my dhd rom cuz i need a class 4 sd card
[Desire General] skaterazn:
What about replacing the touch-screen with a better one? Any chance?
[Desire General] Stewge:
Just a few things...

Any rom works with NextG, you just won't get "unmetered" content due to the device id. I'm running Oxygen and it works fine with HSDPA on 850mhz. You only need to run a Telstra specific rom if you want to retain all the shortcuts to telstra services and access them "unmetered" which is useless since anything worth it, like FoxTel, you have to pay an extra subscription for anyway.

The camera is controlled by a combination of the kernel and radio firmware. Even if the DHD camera was backwards compatible (software-wise) you would still have to make modifications to make the higher settings available.

If your video recording doesn't even start then you need to update your radio firmware to a more recent one. The original radio that shipped with NextG phones (they're still shipping 2.1 as far as I know) did not allow the camera to work with 2.2+ roms.

Functional video recording has nothing to do with the SD card unless you're trying to record 720p content and the SDCard doesn't write fast enough. But it'll just "lag" in that case. Recording at a lower resolution will still work.
[Desire General] xAnniHilatex:
You Sir, are a prodigious idiot.
[Desire General] natao2nv:
why am i an idiot i like to have a unique phone working in mobile phone business it looks good being able to do things and show pplz ur not just a mobile phone sales man and blue, red, green LED lights in the bottom is just 1 of many mods to come :)
[Desire General] Ciela:
You'll find that the unmetered content has to do with the APN you use, and the browsers User Agent string. If you use the telstra.iph APN (no proxy details etc), and set your User Agent string correctly (cant recall the exact one required, but you can set it via the browsers debug menu), you can use any ROM you like and enjoy the unmetered content all the same

Worked perfectly fine with stock LeeDroid (not t-mod leedroid) and InsertCoin (Sense HD) roms :)

[Xoom General] Earthbrain:
There are a few reasons that the Xoom 3G/4G is in trouble.

1. Sam's Club is rumored to be selling the price of the wi-fi only for $539

2. The Galaxy Tab 10.1 is thinking of cutting its price when it debut (it may or may not have a better display than the Xoom)

So who would be willing to put out $800 to buy it now...even if you know about the $100 off promo code from Motorola.
[Xoom General] modru2004:
id like to point out that some people WANT the data connection. they don't just want wifi.

secondly, its all about the instant gratification.
[Xoom General] hi_its_ryan:
Because Motorola wouldnt drop the price when it actually releases the wifi-only version right?

Seriously guys, Motorola got it's flagship Xoom to market as quickly as it could with the price it wanted to sell to early adopters at. They aren't going to drop MSRP just because of competitor announcements, internet rumors, internet forum crybabies, or fuzzy pictures of fake displays in a random Sam's Club location.
