Gotta say that I think that the Xoom has phenomenal performance for a tablet in the video camera tests. Was not expecting that at all. Could do better on still photographs. The Notion Ink's performance was obviously less than optimal, to put it very kindly.

I'm running Stock Froyo and noticed that Email is using the same icon as Messaging(SMS/MMS) when I click on a contact. Can anyone confirm if this happens to them too on contacts that have an email. This will help me determine if this issue is just my phone or stock froyo.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asreal:
Got an HTC desire a couple of weeks ago and desired to root.

After installing several mods I decided on keeping cyanogen 7.

Soon after I realized that I was no longer receiving txt or SMS messages.

I reflashed to backup copy of the stock os and can receive txt but no mms.

I have done tons of reading and scoured the forums but to no avail. Many similar posts but no solutions have worked for me.

I can't help but think that if I understood more about the technical aspects of how the carrier communicates with the phone I could at least diagnose the problem my self. If anyone can offer any insight or ref material I would be elated.

Technical info as follows.

Carrier. Mobipcs (hawaii)

Phone. HTC desire

Rooted. Yes

Current os. Cyanogen 7 (stable)

Much mahalo and aloha

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] SportbikeRiderXX:
I'm currently using the DL Desire Series offered by user dandiest. I want to change to a different build (undecided yet). How do I keep/transfer an installed app without re-downloading it from the Marketplace? Including the data involved with it?

e.g. Angry Birds program (game), WITH all required info so that when I "install" it onto my new AD build (suggestions welcome), it will remember what level I'm on.

I'm still learning how to use/tweak AD on my HD2, so please bear with me if this seems trivial. I'm sure that I'll find more useful instances where this info will help me in the future (something more inportant than a game).

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mozelstein:
Running CM7RC

Decided to try one of the themes so I did a backup first using ROM Manager.

Didn't like the themes so I tried to restore.

It is coming up without my google account and there is no option to add it in the account settings.

I've wiped and reapplied the backup and also fixed permissions to no avail so far.

I'm finishing a 2nd fix permissions after wiping everything (even Davlik).

Has anyone ever had this happen to them? If so, what was the fix?

I'd rather get it restored than start over...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mozelstein:
Restoring the account settings in Titanium doesn't help either.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leonid99:

Download gapps-gb-20110120-signed.zip from here: http://goo-inside.me/google-apps/ and flash from recovery.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Did you use clockworkmod 3.0? It's been known to messed things up during nandroid restore.

Flash GAPPS like other have mentioned.

If not full wipe and start over, use AMon Ra or an older CWM version
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mozelstein:
Yeah, they were there when I restored the backup but they wouldn't open because there was no google account in the phone. Could flashing gapps fix this?

Yes, it is cwm 3.0 :(

For now I've done a full wipe and started over and after a couple of days of tweaking I'll likely forget the incident. I might try restoring and flashing gapps but I have my doubts as to whether that would work.

I'm going to have to start being more vigilant about backing up apps/settings/data in other ways if a nandroid backup isn't dependable...

Thanks for the comments.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mozelstein:
OK, I just flashed RC2 and the account issue popped back up so it isn't necessarily that backup I did before.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:

[Vibrant General] bartek25:
im sayin stock tassk killer is as good if not better than any of the task killers (as far as killing programs go , not to monitor system so much ) but stock is simple clean neat easy and made by company that made Your operating system , why not use it .

(at least You can be sure the task killer is not some mallware program stealing Your identity)

where you using autokiller? because if you where thats a different type of task management app.

auto killer is used to tune androids natural task killing abilities. also galaxy tuner also has these features built into the app.

Here is some informed info on using these types of memory managers.

[Vibrant General] VeryCoolAlan:
No like advanced task killer

[Vibrant General] hazard99:
Oh well check out that info I posted. Besides having auto kill on lowers your battery life because its constantly killing stuff. Your phone uses the same amount of power regarless if you have things in memory or not.

WOW , i didnt say battery preformance decrease because of task you kill BUT! it increases loading times ! which also decrease your battery !

Theoretically it should save battery and have your phone run smoother but if you use auto task killer it kills some important stuff. Hold your home button and use the built in task killer it has been the better task killer I have used. You might notice a brief lag but everything should run better
[Nook Color General] pesto126:
Hi everyone.. I'm really hoping you can help me with this final issue to get my color nook up and running. I am running a rooted nook (autonooter) with the ad-hoc workaround installed. The machine can find and see the ad-hock network that I setup using my iphone with mywi 4.11.2 (no wpa setup).

The nook attempts to connect to it and gets stuck obtaining the IP address - nothing I have done (reboot, toggle wifi, etc) allows it to connect successfully. I am able to connect other machine (netbook/ipad) to the iphone so I know it is broadcasting/connecting ok... also, I can establish a connection on the nook to other wireless networks.

I'm about at my wits end as this is the final piece I need to get things rolling... any thoughts/ideas, etc?

Thx!!
[Nook Color General] pesto126:
Never mind... I fixed it by installing the 4.50.6 version of Mywi on the phone.. works like a charm now! Thx!

[Thunderbolt General] CaliTilt:
Same 'ol same 'ol no stock and no known date. May wait for the Bionic instead.
[Thunderbolt General] Haxcid:
If you look at the details of the ad it clearly states "coming soon"

I also agree, at this point might as well wait for the bionic. The bionic release version will be fully optimized. I know it has been mentioned before that the TB scored better in bench marks but that was against a bionic with android that was not optimized for the tegra. I want to see the benchmarks on the retail products.

its gonna be a win win for consumers either way, not including tiered data.

I was very excited about the Atrix and preordered the phone only to cancel a couple of days later and I'm glad I did after I saw what kind of network speeds they were getting. I've decided I will not pre-order anything on a new network anymore. I'll let you other guys test the waters. I'd rather have an idea of what I'm getting and how much it's going to cost before hand, rather than making a lot of changes only to have to return something. Plus my Evo is getting better and better with Cyanogen anyway.

What will the price be on verizon if it is 299 on best buy? After this short exclusiveness to best buy, will the thunderbolt it amazon?
[Thunderbolt General] andydumi:
Likely same at Best Buy and Verizon. And Amazon and other online sellers will have it the same day, I imagine for $100 less or so as they do with other phones. I dont think the phone is much better than the Inspire 4G on ATT which sells for $99. So anything over 199 is too much for th TB I think.

Best Buy only has a retail store exclusive, not complete.
[Nook Color General] lyam23:
So, I read the multitude of threads discussing various battery/chargin issues but never saw a resolution/answer for this one.

My NC won't report the battery levels correctly during charge. It seems to be charging because when I reboot, it reports the levels correctly. It also reports correct levels during discharge.

So two questions:

Is there a solution to getting the battery indicator to read properly during charge and

Will the overcharge governor still work and prevent an overcharge if the battery levels aren't reporting properly to me?

I am using the OEM AC adapter connected to a wall outlet.

I am using rooted stock (monster root pack method) and overclocked using Dalgren's Eclair kernel.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liquelt:
I don't know why, but my Nexus S is not showing boot step when I turn it on.

Steps:

1- I turn it on by pressing power button and it vibrates.

2- WHen it's time to show CM7 bootlogo, the screen appears to be off and the 4 buttons above the screen are lighted.

3- It vibrates one more time, showing that my phone had complete the boot step and now I have to press power button to make the screen "off" and then turn it on to unlock the screen.

4- After this I can continue using my cellphone without problems.

Anyone have a solution for my problem?

[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY HARD OR SOFTWARE BASED DAMAGE. IF YOUR PHONE BRICKS, YOU LOSE IMPORTANT DATA, OR OTHERWISE INCUR LOSSES AS A RESULT OF RUNNING THIS KERNEL, ITS NOT MY FAULT.

THE LATEST NIGHTLIES HAVE BEEN REMOVING VOLTAGE CONTROL STATS, SO PLEASE REMOVE ALL OVERCLOCKING BEFORE FLASHING A NIGHTLY OR AN UPDATE FROM HERE.

This is a CM7 based kernel with a 1.6 Ghz overclock, Voodoo sound and color fixes, uv support, and BLN. See the changelog for all the updates and features.

Informations (THESE CHANGE ON A REGULAR BASIS):

1. Max clock is set to 1GHz on the first boot, set the max clock in CM settings or voltage control or setCPU.

2. I cannot possibly stress this enough. IF YOU EXPERIENCE BUGS WHILE ON THIS KERNEL, POST HERE. Do NOT submit bug reports to the CM team, until you have flashed back to stock CM, and can verify the bug exists there too.

3. To undervolt, use either Voltage Control, SetCPU, or Control Freak.

4. Want to go back to stock? First, if there's any particular reason, please let me know. I love to have feedback, good or bad. Then, just flash the latest official update.

5. Sources --> https://github.com/TheEscapistxda/android_kernel_samsung_aries

6. BLN is disabled by default. Please enable it by using the BLN control app from the market.

7. Its not an error. Don't freak out. Let it boot.

Thanks to Netarchy for his Nexus S oc code, coolhbo for setCPU, the CMSGS team for their work, Supercurio for Voodoo, raspdeep for his oc/uv patches(showed me how to create a sysfs interface for uv), Xan for the uv app, neldar for BLN, and cyanogen for his amazing rom.
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
NIGHTLIES/WHENEVERS:

#1[May 25]

+Working ril (data + service)

+working gps

+switched to mfloat=softfp as it gives slightly higher linpack scores

+Voodoo sound v9

+LZO compression for a faster boot up time.

Known bugs:

Rild crashes in areas with no service, causing a hard reboot. (Can anyone tell me if this happens on the stock kernel?)

#2[May 27]

+Actually working ril (no more reboots)

+Optimized for size

+Updated to 2.6.35.13 kernel (No, I dont have a changelog. There is one on the internet somewhere. Needless to say, its huge.)

+Probably some other stuff.

Known bugs:

Bln is finicky on this build, try reflashing/rebooting if it doesn't work at first.

#3 [May 29]

+States table in voltage control kinda works, but is buggy.

+disabled ext2

+re-added 1.6Ghz with a higher voltage (be careful guys).

+upped 1.55ghz by a few Mhz so it should be one or two above rather than below.

#4 [June 4]

+Disabled the states_enabled_table again, cause voltage control was really sketchy about keeping the states properly enabled. Hopefully the new rewrite will help.

+Fascinate support

#5[June 28] UNTESTED

+All upstream merges

+GPU bus clock speed modifiable using Control Freak

+Other stuff that I can't remember or have time for

#6[July 12]

+Upstream changes

+Fixed BLN (For whatever reason, it won't work after booting into recovery. Do a normal reboot, and it'll work).

+Reenabled the debugging, cause it was causing issues

So can we flash back to original cm7 kernel after this using odin?

I believe you need to use the cm7-update.zip file to install the original cm7 kernel - unless there is a .tar cm7 kernel?

There is, but it doesn't fix everything g that is necessary. You need the update zip.

It'd be great if you can integrate BLN into the kernel as well!! Running kang's voodoo color/sound right now, but who ever comes out with a BLN kernel will have my full attention(and of many other people I imagine judging by the posts on the CM forum)!!
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
yes please 1+ for BLN.

That being said with Voodoo fixes soon to be intergrated, and hopefully UVing Im watching this thread closely.

And when we do flash this would we have to do anything differently? Or just flash it over the current set up via CWM like any other ROM.

Thanks and great work so far.
[Captivate Android Development] coderunner:
Would these recent captivate cm7 voodoo kernel be helpful to integrating voodoo into your oc kernel?

http://kang.project-voodoo.org/
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
Voodoo sound is almost done, either tonight or tomorrow. Then, ill look at making this compatible with xan's UV app. Bln is probably going to be last, as it looks like the most work. There is currently no bln for any nexus s kernel, so ill have to see if it'll work.
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
Yeah, just flash it over top.
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
This might seem like a pretty hefty request, but what are the chances that you can implement MKV splitting into the kernel? I wouldn't expect the kernel to be the route to getting MKV support on a device, but apparently developers for the Advent Vega Android Tablet have done exactly that. H.264 acceleration on a device that supports the stream should work no matter the container as long as something else in the chain parses the container first.

I'm not sure about licensing issues though, but it seems that a device that came with support for the MKV container (pretty much all Samsung devices, even their TV's and Bluray players) shouldn't be in violation of anything if it's running a custom ROM that contains the same functionality. Or maybe we'll have to wait for a Samsung Gingerbread source and create a Samsung-CM7 Frankenstein project?

Not being able to play my library of 720p MKV's with embedded softsubs without remuxing (and remuxing to mp4 still doesn't support embedded softsubs) on my Captivate is a dealbreaker keeping me away from CM7, but the other features and the possibility of syncing a Wiimote to control the new N64oid emulator is still very appealing :D
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
Well, I'll keep an eye out for anything that might factor into that, but between having other, more crucial features that need to go in first, and knowing next to nothing about video codecs, I can't promise anything. Sorry.

Also, I'm pretty sure I've got voodoo sound in there, but the cm build system is messed, so I haven't been able to build a working kernel or rom all day. Once builds are working again, do people want me to start posting "nightly" builds in here too?
