Granted, i know what you mean, but i was at work and was flapping a bit so sorry bout that, knowledge is free theres no need to hold back on something when the answer is quite simple, people in need of things tend to over complicate things where as someone in the know has the ability to tell the person straight what to do.

Thanks for helping, i appreciate it.

Hi!

I am realatively new to Android and when I sync my Desire HD (unlocked to all networks and sim free and not rooted...) I get this error message -

Your phone is set to block the installation of applications not obtained from Android Market. Please modify the settings for installation.

My question is - how do I do this?

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xperia709:
Prior to the .435 update, there was only one anim folder in the framework res.apk. Now there are 3-4. I had been using an old custom transition with fly in, and a window slide behind the new one. I really liked it. I can't seem to get all the transitions when I copy the old anim folder to replace the new one. I tried deleting the extras but the slide doesn't seem to work. Where should I place the anim folder files to get all the old transitions I was using? They were from xperiax10iuser's 1.2 from maybe back in September 2010. Didn't know whether to post this in themes or FAQ. Sry if spamming.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidepart:
Just curious here. I qualify for the Premier Upgrade right now (and have qualified since November of last year). I just haven't really had a use for it since I shelled out the mucho cash for an unsubsidized EVO back when it came out.

From the sounds of it, my upgrade is going to be taken away from me even though I've already earned it. Has anyone been able to call up Sprint or do anything to manage to keep their upgrade? Any ideas?

What if I change to the unlimited plan today, anyone know if I'd be able to keep my upgrade? I think spending an extra $20 this month on my service would be worth keeping my upgrade past April 1. When I grab a new phone, I'd just bump down to the 450 plan. I'm ok waiting 2 years after the fact, I'm just not really happy with earning an upgrade and then having it stripped from me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgalan14:
I'm in same.boat I ma call sprint this month to find out, I got an upgrade now and another one in 6 months and I really want to find out, I'm planning of getting the "summer " phone the sprint always releases and get the other one for my wife in Xmas time, but overall I think we should keep it cause it sounds fair to me

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidepart:
I just upgraded to the Unlimited Plan. With the student discount it's not that much more expensive than the 450 plan I have with TEP. Since my intention is to get a new phone in June or whenever, I don't think TEP is going to really be all that necessary for the next couple of months.

The plan "should" kick into effect on March 22 my account says. So that's before the April 1 deadline. And...with my discount, I'm still over $99 (although I don't think that matters). So, I don't anticipate any problems but I'm always skeptical.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
I've talked to both executive services and the office of Dan Hesse. both said there is NOTHING they can do about this. They cannot change your upgrade date for any reason.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgalan14:
OK so we keeping them :) nice I was tripping man, I bought the Evo without contract and I like it a lot and yes it last me more then any other smart phone (iPhone was the other one the last me) but I alwasys would get an smartphone every 6 months I got my Evo since launch and I haven't seen anything that would replace it but CTIA is coming.so I was worried that I would have to buy another 500$ device
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultan.of.swing:
I'm in the same boat, got an upgrade waiting for me and want to use it when the new devices roll out. When I talked to CS they said I will still have it when the policy changes, Hope it's true.

such a good thing to hear. i didnt want to get jacked for my upgrade and have to pay for a new phone at full price.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
I've been with sprint for 13 years now so I qualify for yearly upgrades regardless of new policy. Guess it pays to be loyal
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidepart:
Sorry, I think some people need clarifying on this. I've just read this as, "I will lose the upgrade that I already earned if I don't use it before 4/1. There's nothing Sprint can do, even if I complain."

That's what I was expecting.

I think some people heard, "I've earned my upgrade already and if I don't use it before 4/1, I keep it because it's not possible for Sprint to reverse and change this."

This isn't what you meant though, is it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rydah:
im confused. i hope they dont take away upgrades.

what if im available for an upgrade in June as a premier ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tubazeppelin:
You'll probably get bumped down to silver.

I called Sprint yesterday (from my Hero) and they said if I didn't use my upgrade by April 1 that I was going to lose it and wouldn't get a full upgrade until January. I'd rather live with a 2nd-tier phone (as I'm guessing the EVO will be in about 6 months or so) for 6 months than a 3rd-tier phone for 10, so I went ahead and got my EVO last night.

Basically you need to find a way to get your plan to $89.99. Here's how I did the math:

$69.99 + $10 for 4G = $79.99/mo + $10 of other stuff (more minutes, equip. protection, etc) = $89.99. Pay that bill for 3 months and you've got Gold status.

You wind up spending $10/mo more than normal, but 12 months and $120 later you are granted a $150 upgrade (you make money) and a full 12 months ahead of schedule (you save time). Considering going with Verizon or AT&T or whatever and they'd have us paying $99.99 for roughly the same service with the same old 22 month upgrades, Sprint is still the way to go.

Then again, they could pull the rug out from all of us like they did this time around, so who knows if this will work. If they try and change my status again next February I'm going to file a class action.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidepart:
Try communicating with Sprint support guys, I'm not sure what to say.

As it stands, I'm keeping my unlimited plan until I upgrade at least. I've been able to exercise my upgrade since 10/1/2010. There's no reason I shouldn't qualify for the "yearly" upgrade as of this moment. Some people may have a different situation (they haven't earned theirs yet, they'll earn it after 4/1). That's probably a different story.

Sprint has led me to believe the following:

I've earned my upgrade as of 10/1/2010. I currently can use the upgrade whenever I want. I let the tech know that I'd like to keep my 450 Everything Data plan. I specifically asked if I could still use the upgrade in May 2011 if I wanted. I was informed that I could.

My concerns over the following log. Did she fully understand that I was asking about a situation where I'd have the 450 Everything Data Plan? I've upgraded to the Unlimited Plan, maybe she's giving me information based on that?

Here's our conversation:

Take what you will from it. Maybe it's not clear what I'm asking here and I was given wrong information.

Either way, the specifics state that I can use the upgrade I've been eligible for since 10/1/2010 after 4/1/2011. I intend to do so. If someone at Sprint stops me, I'm going to possibly raise some hell and throw this in there as evidence of what I was told.

I shouldn't "have" to keep my Unlimited Plan, but I will for now just for the heck of it. Eh, I just landed a new job making twice as much in salary. Maybe I'll just stick with the unlimited plan simply to retain the yearly upgrade.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
If you currently are eligible for a Premiere upgrade, AND you will become a Gold Premiere Member on 4/1, you will still have your upgrade.

If you currently have an upgrade, and will become a Silver Premiere member on 4/1 you will lose the upgrade.

That's what they have told me. It may be wrong, considering the CSR's track record of not having a clue about anything.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r0cky0790:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidepart:
Unfortunately for me, that means that they'll take my upgrade away even though I upgraded to the Unlimited plan because I won't have a three months base average $89 bill right away.

Well if that ends up being the correct outcome, then the question would be if I'd earn back my upgrade 3 months from now...or if I'd have to wait until 10/1/2011 regardless of what I do.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpz1100:
I believe your math is flawed... Only the base rate (69.99) counts towards the gold level, your $20 in addons don't count for didly squat :( And since your base rate is not $89.99 or higher, you are a silver level member.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r0cky0790:
I just called sprint and they said I would be eligible for and full upgrade in 2012 and I will be eligible for $150 upgrade in the coming months. So what's the hype about. I still have to pay money this year for a new phone if I want one. Even though my bill is well over 89 dollars. They also said in order to be a gold member you have to be with sprint for ten years. Someone tell me if I'm missing something here.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tubazeppelin:
Yeah, I just went back and read that. :(

Might just up my plan to the unlimited everything policy...I'm digging the yearly upgrades and that's how much I would have to pay if I left sprint to go to Verizon anyway.

How about this loophole, though: you have to average $89.99 for 3 months. What's to stop me from upgrading my plan 4 months before I'd get a yearly upgrade?

hi all

couldent find a way to copy pics from sd card to phone memory in order to free space on sd. any suggestions?

thx
[Droid 2 Global General] -Gilgamesh-:
To me able to move things to the root folder (internal storage) you will need an app that can mount the root folder as r/w (read/write) and then copy and paste the relevant files. To be able to do that though, you going to need to be rooted and have use an app such as Root Explorer to move it to the root folder.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] case-sensitive:
Does anyone know of a good keyboard app that has build-in keys for control & escape & up/down/L/R arrows?

I need to ssh into unix for work; connectbot does a good job of that, but two problems:

* the on-screen keyboard when activated would cover up part of the screen

* and to compensate for that, I need to resize the screen each time, and the resizing for landscape is not the same as that for portrait, not to mention the fact that I can't control the font size

So: does anyone know of a good terminal emulator that does a better job with resizing/font setup?

THANKS!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
I would suggest trying irssibot.. It's a fork of connectbot. It doesn't do font/screen handling any better, but what it does have is nice shortcuts when long-pressing on the screen.. Control-C, Control A, Alt-? (where you hit the key after), etc... Works great with irssi, but also works great using GNU/screen

Either way, an on screen keyboard is going to mess with the screen. :mad: But I find it's more than acceptable on the Nook Color.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] case-sensitive:
Thanks! I just downloaded irssi from the market and I like the long-press menu. Question: is there a way to add more items to the long-press menu? Just have a single Ctrl would do (it already did that with Alt-).

Thanks!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
Yeah agreed. I emailed the author a while back and they said "they are still working on function from connectbot and will add more features later" basically. I agree, Control-? would be great.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dannyniceboy:
In the Android SDK - there is a sample keyboard apk, if you look through the source code you easily change any keys to whatever symbols you want. I have interest in this as well so I can ssh into my schools server. Another option would be to decompile the standard barns and noble keyboard and see if you cant change some of the xml files to have the keys point to different symbols. I personally like the barnes and noble keyboard the best (I am stock 1.1 autonootered) so if I actually attempt any of this it will be on the Barnes and Noble keyboard
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dereksurfs:
Yep, I agree. That's one of the first changes I made switching back to the B&N keyboard.

Are you saying the B&N source isn't available, hence the decompile option?

You can flash the CWM version using SGS Kernel Flasher. It'll take a while for the first boot up, but you'll get audio prompts that it is working. Just take your typical precautions...backup, blah blah blah.

Works great with KB1.

I actually have CWM flashed onto her phone from installing PlumbBob's GPS fix so I could flash it with CWM. Thanks.

My main reason for flashing a different kernel was because her battery life is lousy compared to my phone with Serendipity and Paragon.

IMHO, the battery life has been great since flashing that kernel. I haven't done any official logging or anything, though.

And the difference in speed because of the lag fix is unbelievable. Incomparable.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lactardjosh:
Flashing the kernel did not wipe my phone. BUT, you should definitely do a back up before flashing it. Just good practice.

The first time you boot up after flashing the kernel, it will take a while to finish booting. It'll stay on the AT&T World Phone splash for quite a while. You'll get a digitized voice telling you that the Voodoo lag fix is running and it'll give you an estimated time to complete it. The first time I did it, I couldn't understand what it said, but after messing up something else and having to go back to 2.1 and then upgrade to 2.2 again (which did wipe my phone), I realized that the first time it had told me it was going to take 10 minutes to enable the lag fix. The second time around, it took 2 minutes because there was nothing extra on the phone since it had just been wiped. So, depending on how many apps, etc, you have installed, the lag fix will take a more or less time. Let it run, find something else to distract you from how long it is taking.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevria:
I have enabled the lagfix on my phone. My wife has a LOT of apps on her phone so it will take awhile. I backed the rom up using rommanager and copied the Titanium backup directory off to my home computer.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevria:
I installed the Supercurio kernel last night on my wifes phone so it will be interesting to see whether the battery life gets any better. The phone should run smoother though.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobapunk:

Hi

I have a HTC Mozart, but today i will buy a Samsung Omnia 7

Now i want to know how could i bring the SMS (Messages) to the Samsung?
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
You can't, I'm afraid. Only backup that exists today is the one taken before an OS upgrade and its doubtful that can be restored to another handset. And there is no 3rd party backup software so no practical way exists to backup your messages on WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Hirnteri:
1. so i will lose all my messages? :(

2. could it work after the Nodo-Update?

3. whats with my contacts?
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
1. Yes, I've been through that multiple times when exchanging my Dell venue pro, all messages gone.

2. Doesn't look like Nodo addresses this in any way, and nothing in the Zune software has been changed either to accommodate this. Sad state, but this is becoming a trend with WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Hirnteri:
How can i save my contacts?
[Windows Phone 7 General] remyc:
If you have a Windows Live ID, sync it into Windows Live Contacts. It would sync automatically when your other phone also uses this ID. Of course U can also use Google / Exchange (Outlook) contacts if you have.

I suggest you use Windows Live one. If you don't want to merge the phone contacts into the Windows Live ID you are using for chatting, you could sign up a new one specially for your WP and phone contacts. Then you could manage your contacts on Widnows Live Mail client, Hotmail web page and also your phone itself. It's more convenient for editing your contacts info on PC instead of phone. They would sync to each other after any change you made.
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
Since you already have a Mozart those contacts should be in Windows Live and will transfer to your new handset.
