[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
yes you should wipe the whole system before restoring a backup.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
Wipe data/factory reset, only formats /data, /cache and /sd-ext. Not /system, /dalvik-cache or /boot :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
A wipe wont do any harm, but the restore overwrites everything anyhow
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merell1988:
Better flash full-wipe.zip because a factory reset is just not a FULL wipe ;)

Reflash any firmware through Odin with repartition enabled. Or if you are using voodoo go into three button recovery mode and turn off the lagfix.

I was using Cognition 2.3. The home screen was simpler and has a sleeker look. The app screen was the same. Why does Cog 4 seem like a jump back to my Stock Rom. Maybe I'm just stupid???? lol
[Captivate General] MikeyMike01:
Because, you know, it IS a jump back to stock ROM?

Captivate, XDA Premium, Cyanogenmod
[Captivate General] breal4sho:
whats the point?

why release a new version that is less impressive than its predecessor? Doesn't make whole hell of a lot of sense to me. But again maybe I'm just stupid.
[Captivate General] vunuts:
DG's whole point with Cog 4/4.1/4.1.1, is to try to keep it looking and running as stock as possible. Everything that was pre Cog 4 already had an ass ton of themes that were compatible and DG started incorporating them into the ROM's.

DG has a life, so don't jump his nuts and complain about him pushing out a boring ROM. For free. Nobody told you to flash it, and there's plenty of other ROM's out there. Or you can just switch back to your previous ROM.
[Captivate General] malicenfz:
+1 He even says that he tries to keep it as stock as possible all ROMS have their differences its all about your own personal preference.
[Captivate General] Caliesv:
Agree %100000000. Couldn't say it any better.
[Captivate General] malicenfz:
I love ALL these custom ROMS I can't seem to keep the same one for more than a week, the only ones that I have been able to kep for long are Cognition and Serendipity.
[Captivate General] megarific:
Cognition 4.1 is meant for people like me that wan custom r o m,but wan it to look like stock 1
[Captivate General] Sqb:
I don't think he meant boring like a bad job. Once some themes are ported then everyone should be happy. You can't knock the performance or smoothness of cognition. It will work and be consistent. Maybe it is boring in the fact that you can run it and forget you even have a custom rom going. That's because DG is that good. Thanks again!

Cognition may be boring for some but I need my phone to work and so far it gives me the best balance of features and reliability.

[Captivate General] mcord11758:
Cognition isn't as much a rom as it is a rooted, debloated, stock setup. Couple theme improvements like extended power. Using a voodoo enabled kernel. It is a setup one could achieve if they updated to kb1 on their own relatively easy.
[Captivate General] quarlow:
I liked Cog too, but wanted something different than stock. That's why I loved perception, but its discontinued now. Perception 10.4 is a solid rom, stable, fast, and has that slight aosp feel.

Ultimately I went to FireFly. I love it. I how easy they made it to customize. It comes with an app that will showcase and download the other battery's and dialers. I sometimes feel like I need to enable the lagfix, but haven't yet.
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
Two posts in the forum and you've managed to criticize the excellent work of one of the most prolific ROM cookers on XDA solely based on your ignorance of what DG does and why. You might want to create a new account and start over. Knocking a guy's work that he provides for free is just bad juju.
[Captivate General] mcord11758:
I think he can leave his screen name alone. He did not say anything offensive just asked an honest question.
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
It was an ignorant question, not an honest one. I wasn't in here long before I knew what DG's ROMs are about. Cog 4.x is all about providing a ROM that is as close to stock Froyo as possible without all the bloatware and just a few tweaks to provide better peformance. The kind of things most users who don't want to mess with themed ROMs or exotic kernels want. And criticizing the work that someone provides for free is just wrong whether it makes sense to him or not. I can see knocking a dev for putting out a shoddy product, but with all the choices in ROMs available in here for the Cappy it makes no sense to knock one just bcause you find it "boring."

[HTC Inspire 4G] g1ddy:
Is this the same as the Email.apk from the Galaxy Tab? Or could it be even newer?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bgweed:
Nicely done. I'm also interested in what you used as a base for this. It looks just like my boss's email on his galaxy s. Looks very different than my Mail app that came on my Inspire. No biggie, just different.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sheanzyy:
Thanks! I really wish I could MOD some of these .apk's ... I'm not sure why Google has yet to implement a SELECT ALL feature for the INBOX. Luckily HTC has an EMPTY trash button....that is after you individually select one at a time to delete.

Sorry for the rant...

Good upload my man!:D
[HTC Inspire 4G] bgweed:
Here's the only flaw I've found with this...

If I want to search my Company Directory under People, it asks me to set up my Exchange ActiveSync account... doing this forces me to adhere to the security policies, even if I choose to not sync any information with my phone. Any way to work around this using your Email.apk?? Searching my company directory is just about a must-have for me.

Edit: It seems that this Email put the "Corporate" account under my Accounts & Sync instead of Exchange ActiveSync. Any way to use this Corporate acct to search my corp directory??
[HTC Inspire 4G] andysousa:
Any update for this to work with the Gingerbread ROMs?
[HTC Inspire 4G] akira02rex:
I couldn't get this to work with my company's exchange. Maildroid, touchdown both work but not this nor the stock mail app. Actually, I tried this when I was running CM7. The stock CM7 email app wouldn't even communicate with my company's exchange server (just failed out). I then installed this and it did the same thing.

Now I'm running Android Rev. 3.1 and the stock email app will communicate and then ask what I wish to sync. After that it fails when it tries to finish the setup. Would this remedy the problem?

email.apk Modification Advice

Please forgive my inexperience with Android code so I'm hoping you can provide a little direction. I own a Samsung Intercept by VM which just recently was provided with the Froyo update. I can't stand having to enter a Pin Code to activate my Corporate Account which was not necessary when I had Eclair. I decompiled the email.apk file and found a xml file named device_admin which I copied to a Word doc and attached since there was a misinterpretation that I was adding a link which I don't have the privilege to do at this time. I was curious if I could eliminate the need to enter a Pin Code if I changed "false" to "true" in the 2nd line of the device_admin file? I thought with your experience you could tell me if I was on the correct track.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ladiesgod:
Off topic but..why did you return the atrix?
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
There is a better way of removing Exchange Security. It involves easily modifying the existing Email.apk that is already on your ROM. This method works on Sense and AOSP, Gingerbread or Froyo.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=655649

It is simple. Pull Email.apk from your ROM, run an executable that modifies it in about 10 seconds, reboot into recovery, then push the .apk file back to your ROM, reboot, then setup your Exchange account. Full instructions in the above link. I've done this method on many ROMs and it works every time. Takes about 2-3 minutes.
[HTC Inspire 4G] marathondon:
Thanks for the direction. The only problem is the executionable file that was attached to the link you provided has been removed. Do you know another place that it could be found?

thanks

Update, added Sense 3.0 Version.
[HTC Inspire 4G] BB2DX:
Hmmm... I tried this on vivo 2.1 and the mod didn't take. Still have to enter pin on unlock. Used re method to install. Do I have to use kingdom 1.0 for this to work?

Edit: Tried this mod on Kingdom 1.0 and I still had to enter PIN on unlock. @Fenny: Am I missing a step??? Is there a setting somewhere to turn the check off?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Fenny:
If you already have the pin requirement in place this will not take it away, it simply makes it so that when first setting up the account it never comes into place.

Set it up from the Mail application directly, NOT from the sense configuration wizard at start.
[HTC Inspire 4G] BB2DX:
Still no dice. Still end up having to put in PIN. I even went through TiBU to delete the original Mail apk. I'm not sure why its not working, but I will just continue to use the AOSP version that you originally posted (which works great).
[HTC Inspire 4G] bgweed:
Working fine for me. I just adb pushed it over my existing Mail.apk.

Oh there is one problem - I can't seem to "checkbox" the mail items. It's not a HUGE problem, but I would really like to be able to select several mail items to delete / mark as read. Any ideas?
[HTC Inspire 4G] d.cortez:
i'm experiencing the same behavior using the Unity Sense 3.0 ROM. i get 100+ emails a day, so i need the "check-it-delete-it" option. also, the Mail.apk included in this thread appears to be from Sense 2.1; it does not include the other mail setup options for Gmail, hotmail, etc., that appear with the Sense 3.0 Mail.apk.
[HTC Inspire 4G] m2xtreme:
So far so good

This is just what I was looking for! Thanks so much to the OP for posting this. I realize there are other options out there such as was described earlier in the thread, but running a .exe in Linux to mod a .apk is *much* more work than this solution. It took me less than a minute to backup my current Email.apk

adb pull /system/app/Email.apk ~/Desktop/Email_back.apk

and run the snippet in the original post. Now I can use my exchange server with a pattern lockscreen instead of a numeric or text passcode :D

And to top it all off I see that Fenny is a Recognized Developer so I'm not worried about the integrity of this .apk.

I LOVE XDA

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] 3xeno:
You can't root with the Wildfire on 2.2.1. You will have to wait till a software solution comes by.

Till now, the only way to root is to find someone with an XTC Clip (A hardware unlocking box), get S-OFF on your phone, and then downgrade from 2.2.1 to 2.1, and then root.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] bichoudandy:
hi,

u must downgrade to 2.1 with RUU WWE in shipped rom and do unrevoke to root it. install wildpuzzle or impros or CM7 , so u can use live wallpaper.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] 3xeno:
Don't spread wrong information / misunderstanding among members please. Downgrading will work, but, it will just downgrade the Android OS from 2.2.1 to 2.1, but not the HBOOT, meaning even if you downgrade, it will NOT be rootable using Unrevoked.

As I stated, the only way as of now is to find someone with an XTC Clip box.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] lmalluri:
Hi

Thanks for the replay:).

when can we expect software solution??..

please inform if you got any solution.

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] 3xeno:
There's no info at all about when it will release. Sorry.

To install APK Files, first, just get any File Manager from the market (eg: ASTRO). Then, enable Sideloading by going to Settings > Applications > Tick Mark Unknown Sources. Then, simply open the APK file using the File Manager.

[Windows Phone 7 General] samrozzi:
I have always been an android fan since the G1, but REALLLY interested in WP7, thinking of buying the htc arrive on sprint but theirs ONE thing holding me back. And thats Google Voice.

I use GV for my main number for texitng AND calling.

I know they have some GV apps but can never seem to get a clear answer. I need to be able to receive and make calls along with texting and receiving. any WP7 GV app for that?
[Windows Phone 7 General] failtorespond:
There are a couple of GV apps but I still use the actual website because I think it works better.

If you download zune I believe you can download the WP7 Marketplace still if you wanted to look for yourself.
[Windows Phone 7 General] samrozzi:
well I use zune and looked. but wasnt sure if I can call on those. Like of course android GV app will be better. but say someone calls my GV number I want my WP7 to ring just like normal
[Windows Phone 7 General] markomarkogame:
i use google voice on android and it rocks
[Windows Phone 7 General] samrozzi:
well I know its awesome on android thats what I use. I just want the baic features to work if im gonna get a WP7 device like texting and making and receiving calls to my GV number
[Windows Phone 7 General] dtboos:
It works on wp7. Its not quite as fully integrated as there is no official app, and there is no socket API as of yet. This means the 3rd party apps have to send you notifications directly from their own servers for true notifications, otherwise it will load when you open the app and check for new messages.

I use the GoVoice application on wp7 and it notifies me (through 3rd party) of sms messages ect, and gives me my google voice mails/translations/playback just fine. It works, you can make calls, receive calls, texts, get transcripts/playback just like on android, its just a little bit more limited than the Android version. When the sockets api comes out for dev's this will quickly be addressed with true notifications and be more similar to what you are used to.

http://www.wpcentral.com/wp7-google-voice-clients-–-review-roundup
[Windows Phone 7 General] samrozzi:
hmm thanks. I think im gonna try the HTC Arrive on sprint. I looove android, but sometimes just want a phone thats very quick. simple and looks great. plus I love Zune Pass. The only thing holding me back was using GV. but GoVoice seems great
[Windows Phone 7 General] dtboos:
Yah I'm pretty heavily tied in to Google Voice. Use it for work and all my voicemails. GoVoice gets the job done good enough till a full fledged one can be written when Sockets API is released. But when that happens I will definitely be looking for one as great as what Android had :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
I'm curious how you expect a Socket API to make the notifications better.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dtboos:
The reason you don't see any [functioning] Instant messenger apps, and why GoVoice needs this 'workaround' is there is no way for the dev's to bind to a port or IP address on a host, giving way for the notifications you would normally be used to. Until MS gives these API's out, only bandaid workarounds will be available.

Or am I missing something?
[Windows Phone 7 General] tiny17:
If there is a way to make/recieve phone calls using GoVoice, then I must be too stupid to figure it out. When I attempted to make calls, it would somehow remotely call from my other on contract phone, while also causing my on contract phone to ring until I answered it. Really confusing to describe, but it was equally confusing watching it happen.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
I don't think what they are doing is a workaround, I'm not too sure how they'd do it otherwise. One of the major reasons for push notifications is to be used when the application isn't running. Having a Socket API isn't going to help at all if the application isn't running, right?
[Windows Phone 7 General] dtboos:
hmm...thats true...so I would assume (hopefully) that sockets support comes with the multitasking update? Are programs going to be able to periodically check for information while not running in the foreground? You will need this for 'in app' notifications instead of the workaround; I call it that because it is. Well, a workaround the lack of what is necessary to do these like on other systems (BB, palm, Symbian, iOS, Android ect). GoVoice uses a secondary user account on Gmax. Gmax has to watch your account for changes and then send you notifications to the phone, as opposed to doing this inside the app.

I'm no programmer, so I'm not sure exactly all what is needed. But shouldn't these programs be able to bind to certain ports, and when messages come in, they are pushed to your device? Does the program need to be running all the time? or will the notification being sent from a specific host/port 'awaken' the application with a notification? Maybe somebody can clarify this for me. How do the other systems do this? You should be able to get a notification while doing other things, since you can obviously already do this with the MS applications.

To me, this type of functionality is pretty necessary to many applications people will need on their phones.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
In iOS4, Apple added the ability for VOIP applications to run in the background. That in combination with a Socket API (which is necessary for VOIP anyway) is probably what you're after.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
GoVoice dials directly using the same method that Android's Voice application uses. There's no call-back when connecting the call. It simply calls an intermediary Google number, which dials out to whomever you're calling.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tiny17:
Interesting. I must have messed something up in the setup then.
[Windows Phone 7 General] foxbat121:
Did you use Google Voice web page on your desktop PC to make a call and remembered that setting? It is possible that GoVoice gets affected by your Google Voice web page settings.

BTW, on Android Phones, Google Voice is fully integrated with the phone dial pad as well so that you don't need to pull up the Google Voice app in order to make a call. You set up rules about when you want to make GV calls (all calls or only international calls) and just dial your number or contacts in regular Android phone dialer pad.
