i wouldn't say lazy at all, the apps posted do what you asked, remove/back up/ restore system apps.

they are busy making custom roms and trying to get multi/dual touch.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rubyv:
So, now that I have a yummy Inspire to play with, I figure I'm going to want to try out a few ROMS, etc. Is there any way to back up the data on my phone?

Thanks!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Androidude:
"MyBackup Root" is free in the market. It will save pretty much everything. Apps, app data, texts, call logs, dictionary, bookmarks, etc.
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
Just sync everything with google.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rubyv:
(The only android device I have owned is a rooted NC, so patience please)

When you say to "sync to google", can you clarify? I know I can sync my contacts, mail, and calendar. What else can I sync to google?

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
Sorry. If you go into your google account you can add all of your contacts. When you sign into google all of your contacts will automatically populate with the pictures you had for them. Also all of the apps you downloaded will re download automatically. I find it the best way.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jefe00:
Okay, so I ordered one a WHILE ago, and I received it. The door did not fit, in other words, it required an immense amount of pressure to place it on the phone with all clips holding, and even then the stand would not come out of the back of the case without excessive, and i mean excessive, force. When it was out, when you pushed it back in, it shifted the door out of place and forced one of the clips to pop off. It was not form fitting, as in there were gaps between the battery door and the back of my evo. Just for kicks I tried it on another evo, maybe it was just mine. Didnt fit there either. I contacted by email, no response. Website? no response. I eventually received a PM on the xda-developers forum, and was told to record a video of the problem with the battery door and send it to joey3002.

Really? Honestly? Over a 17 dollar battery door, I need to record a video and send it to you? Like the hassle of trying to get ahold of you and send it back to you is not enough, I would do it for pure amusement?

If I was really that ignorant, and could not figure out how to put it on, the worst that would happen is that you would receive a perfectly functioning battery door in exchange for another functionally perfect battery door, and be out the 44 cents for shipping it.

I understand that this was a great undertaking on your part, and you are trying to make a buck like the rest of the world. But I think that your customer service has to improve a bit.

I am sure there are many people who are happy with their clear battery doors, and the idea is f****** awesome, but there is no order support whatsoever, I wasted $17, and its just sitting on my desk in the same plastic wrapping it came in months ago.

/endrant

UPDATE: Joey is working with me. I was incredibly frustrated, and hopefully this will rectify the problem. I will keep posted.
[EVO 4G Accessories] JUST2SUAVE:
So the seller its on here?

Sent from my Evo, ho!
[EVO 4G Accessories] rugedraw:
Same thing happened to me with mine. I got a Dremel and just slightly grinded down the slot for the kick stand and it's been working lovely for months now. Taking it off feels like you're going to break off one of the clips or something, so I just pop the top clips off when I need to remove the battery and only take the whole thing off if I need to remove the SD card. It's not a PERFECT fit, but I like the look of it so I deal with it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] aph:
Chargeback, duh. Had a similar experience with a screen protector that claimed to be bubble free and had 8 bubbles when I applied it precisely according to the instructions.

I emailed them once, did not receive a satisfactory response (to use scotch tape or something), called my CC company for a chargeback, got an immediate credit and final approval in a few days.
[EVO 4G Accessories] ahavens17:
I bought one when I first got my Evo, I think it looks great. The fit is tight, when you first get all the clips in place, you almost have to slide the case down then to have it completely. It does allow dust to get under the cover which matters more as the cover is clear, but the stock cover does that also (not quite as much, but it still does nonetheless). To take it off I slide a credit card or some other similar card along the edge to pop all the clips out, then just take it off normally. So it is an incredibly tight fit, but it works fine for me. I swap between my old hero battery and Evo battery as needed, and I don't find it difficult at all once you have a system down pat to remove it.:D
[EVO 4G Accessories] 4redstars:
I had the same issue, pm'ed and got no response...

followed videos and everything and nothing worked...oh well.
[EVO 4G Accessories] aph:
Chargeback. Call your CC company. Tell them it's crap. They will take the money from the merchant's account and put it in yours.

The only way to get through to shady sellers is to hit them where it hurts, their bank accounts.
[EVO 4G Accessories] MiSfit211:
Sounds cool though
[EVO 4G Accessories] tan_khoa:
Thanx man, for alarming. I had quit buying add-on accessories since i found they usually don't fit.
[EVO 4G Accessories] sph33r:
Mine fits great. Been using it for months and I'm happy. :shrug:
[EVO 4G Accessories] watzone69:
Same here. I have 3 of them and they all work fine. Not one speck of dust has ever got in there and I have it in and out of my pocket all day. The fit was a bit funky when I first put it on but it settled in within a week and has been great ever since.

For those of you with complaints, the seller (Joe is his name) will work with you but remember, he's just another member like you and me who decided to make these. He's a regular guy with a day-job and a family and definitely NOT here to rip anybody off! Just be patient and he will work something out with you.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jefe00:
I have reached out to joe, he has either ignored me, or not responded, or asked me to record a video, as I stated. I think it might be too late for a chargeback unfortunately. :(
[EVO 4G Accessories] nicsneed:
I had the same fitment issue. Tried it on both mine and the wife's evo. I emailed him twice through his site and sent 3 pm's. Nothing.
[EVO 4G Accessories] scirio:
the maker of these battery doors is still an idiot.
[EVO 4G Accessories] JUST2SUAVE:
Ha ha ha, he mustve taken your money too.

Sent from my Evo, ho!
[EVO 4G Accessories] joey3002:
no, this was the guy when we (xda users) tried do this bet it would never happen.. he never paid the bet btw :)

anyway, all this negativity.. cmon...

the OP has been taken care of, thanks for the video.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
hahaha, that's because you didn't apply it correctly. you did a chargeback for $8 over your own mistake? you do use scotch tape to remove bubbles! remind me to punch you in the nuts if we ever meet.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
by the way my clear door never fit right either, if you pulled out the kickstand it would pop off.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steelemsp:
well i read somewhere that when your using calukin's format all zip, you still have to wipe data and cache. now although it's really not much trouble doing both, i would just like to know if that's necessary? doesn't that delete everything? thanks ahead:D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
It's not necessary to wipe if you are using the format all because it actually formats the partitions.

From what i've read, the usb jig wont help you if nothing shows up on the screen when you press the power button. But I sure hope I'm wrong.

ps. I just tried leaving the phone with battery removed for a few minutes, and no luck:(

[HTC Inspire 4G] JDM9499:
After setting up my email accounts through the stock email application, I've noticed all of my emails with embed photos, either within the email or attached....they are all automatically downloaded to the phone. I can view them in the gallery even. I didn't know the phone was doing this until I went into the gallery to see a couple images I took with the phones camera.

My question is, can you stop the email application from automatically downloading all the images/files? I get about 3,000 emails a month (corporate) and this is going to be quite annoying considering the promotions and email signatures including small gif/jpg files.

Any help would be great. Cheers.
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
Have you tired to limit the size of the email received?
[HTC Inspire 4G] JDM9499:
I haven't. I'm sure that would obviously help for the larger images, but these little gifs that are embeded within an email signature for example, are sometimes 1kb, so very very small. No other Android phone I've owned ever did this without me clicking on the image and downloading it first, myself. It's just fetching the files automatically and downloading them.

Funny thing is, 95% of the emails I DO NOT OPEN!!!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
I don't get work email on my phone but, I do use the pop feature. Maybe its a exchange server issue. I don't have that problem with pop.
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
It probably is automatically downloading them as an "attachment". Turn that feature off.

So i ugraded to tmobiles official froyo release... well their beta one lol..

Before upgrading I could get to stock recovery by pressing the bottom right corner of the ! screen and all that jazz but after the upgrade it seems the stock recovery isnt touch responsive at all, In fact i now have to press the volume buttons up and down just to get the recovery menu to appear, after the menu appears it is not responsive to touch I have to select with the volume keys and enter with the power button...

Tenfars custom recovery doesnt load either.. All i get is a black blank screen... and if i try to load it using the power+ vol down.. it goes to stock...

Anyone notice this difference with their Tmobile US official 2.2 rom? And any suggestions on fixing?

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] val5:
Maybe I must completely remove then install it again...just now upgrade to 5.3 still force closed....gonna try it again
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] knightnz:
Boot into recovery, wipe cache & dalvik-cache. Reboot, from Settings --> Applications --> Manage Applications, find Maps, then select "Force Stop", "Clear Data" and "Clear Cache".

See if it behaves after all that.

If not, you can try rebooting into recovery again and repair permissions.

You could also try over-writing the Maps.apk in /system/app/ with the 5.3 one from /system/app/data/ (you'll need to rename it from com.google.android.apps.maps-1.apk to Maps.apk). That'll force the "system" version to be the current one.

[Defy Android Development] Beach_Head:
While I was waiting for a 34.4.9 Nandroid so that I could get out of the leaked T-Mo US FroYo ROM, racca suggested an ingenious way of getting the update to work. I tried it and true enough, everything went without a hitch...

I am posting the method here as an alternative to flashing the Nandroid:

Files needed:

3.6.190 Nandroid: http://www.multiupload.com/WUL9KCXA3H

3.6.360 Update: http://www.mediafire.com/?ke2i73aa8i3pyem

34.4.9 Update: http://www.multiupload.com/YOXKQ18YW0

Initial Steps:

Note: Do this for both updates

1. Extract "updater-script" from the update. The files is located in: META-INF\com\google\android\

2. Delete everything between this line: "mount("MTD", "system", "/system");" and this line: ui_print("Verifying current system...");

3. And then delete everything between this line: "show_progress(0.100000,0);" and this line: "set_progress(1.000000);"

4. Save the edited file

5. Open the update and navigate to: META-INF\com\google\android\

6. Overwrite the updater-script file

7. Close the update

Steps:

1. Root your phone and install Tenfar's Bootstrap Recovery for the Defy

2. Transfer all of the required files to your SD Card making sure that the 3.6.190 Nandroid is in the correct folder: goapkrev/backup/

3. Create a Nandroid of your current system - DO NOT RESTART

4. Restore the Stock 3.6.190 Nandroid - DO NOT RESTART!

5. Apply the 3.6.360 Update by selecting the "update from zip" option - DO NOT RESTART!

6. Apply the 34.4.9 Update by selecting the "update from zip" option - DO NOT RESTART!

7. Wipe data/cache

8. Restart your phone

Anyone aware of an audio book app for WP7?

No apps... just the audio books themselves which don't need an application to play. Some of them install as apps, like Art of War.

For your existing collection, try ripping them into MP3's and Zune sync 'em.

That's a shame. I use a separate mp3 player for my audio books, just because I like to have them isolated from my music.
