Lots of discussion about this in the past.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4147

This has to be worked out by google as the contacts are synced with google server and resolution is cutdown terribly.
[Android Apps and Games] olde_shrimp:
Wow I just checked out that link and it looks like this will never be fixed.
[Android Apps and Games] sh4z:
How hard would it be to mod the contacts app to support higher resolutions?
[Android Apps and Games] dyetheskin:
I manually did mine because Facebook never seems to stop running resulting in a battery killer so I freeze/unfreeze upon usage. may take awhile based on amount of contacts but no need for contact merging,no more low res photos and no more battery killing due to Fbook
[Android Apps and Games] shawnshine:
I bought fbPhotoSync from the Market and used it to download high resolution photos for all of my contacts. Worked like a charm.

Can we flash rom using PC ?? Its not that big a deal but sounds cool to me.. i cudnt find any such option in nandroid-mobile.sh.. I mean after i reboot into recovery i dont want to press any buttons on my phone..Juts hook up the phone to pc and flash the new rom using say adb
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
It should be possible. When flashing zips, the recovery checks the update-script file found in the META-INF folder. Mimicking the steps there and inputting the correct adb commands and copying the files on the appropriate folders and partitions on your phone should yield the same results.

But as you may have guessed, this isn't practical.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sarfaraz1989:
so u mean to say that i unzip the contents of the zip archive and just execute the script from terminal ???That shud be it??? I know its impractical but wat the hell i love doing things from my debian terminal :P

Update: that script is just a set of messages to be shown during actual update process..it isnt the script ..

instead the script apparently "update-binary" is a binary executable and not a shell script..DO you think that unzip and calling this binary might work??
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
I'm not entirely sure. I think adb has it's limitations. Check other's replies xD

Hello...

i am thinking of rooting my phone , for any reason if i want to factory default restore the phone is that restoring will disable the rooting or that rooting will be permanent ?

thanks a lot...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
The only permanent thing you can do is unlock the bootloader.

Rooting, or any other change can usually be undone...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weam:
so i can unroot the device by factory default of something else?

Thanks alot for your reply
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DenZj:
Root will be available after a factory reset, rooting apps mostly come along with unroot functionality.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Basically, once rooted, you can change the ROM on your phone to any compatible one you can find, including the original one...

Playing a bit on my GF's farmville account:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ec4LLbGl4mc

Overall, the experience is pretty good! It's not the same experience that you'd get on a Core i5 laptop, but more like the experience you'd get an Atom machine.

Next step is to read up on overclocking this to 1.5Ghz, anyone done that yet?

That should put us closer to a full desktop internet experience!

No doubt when these mobile cpu's hit 1.5-2.0ghz and Android is at ver 3.2+, we won't have to give up anything to experience the internet on a tablet.

SIDENOTE: So, my 12yr old cousin has an iPad and when we were playing with it, he would always say, "oh, that site doesn't work, I have to wait for them to make an app"-- so, wait...a lot of these apps are just reproductions of these websites but in app form.

Well, that's probably a significant reason why the iPad will always have more apps. It's because you can't access the site in any other way. So, if you take that into consideration, by having Flash Player 10.2 now, we have access to all these websites that DON'T NEED an app version in order to experience their content. So, how many "apps" does that open up for us?

I would say a lot more than 65,000! Okay, I looked it up. We now have access to over 1.4 million apps! :D

[EVO 4G General] oreo632:
Hey guys, sorry this is so long. So i posted something here about a week or two ago stating that my Evo which I bought on craigslist is resetting. The info I have for this evo is as follows:

Rooted to Metro pcs

Firmware version: 2.1

Kernel Version: 2.6.29-a2443432 htc-kerneland 18-2 #1

Build number Bugless beast to0mod vo 0.1

Software number 1.32.651.6

Let me start off by telling you what I have done so far after extensive research. I have done countless factory resets. Bought two new batteries. I have wiped data, and cache dalvik etc. I have (which was a recommendation by someone on here) installed metro droid 2.0. Which actually just made things worse and wound up having to boot into recovery to revive my phone.

I can't even finish watching a video on you tube. It will reset when music is playing, in the middle of a call or text, if the battery is hot or cold. :mad::mad:

Sometimes it will get into a reboot cycle where the only screen that I see is the white evo screen. Other times it will get all the way to the android screen and then reset. Sometimes the white screen will just stay there. Usually this will go one for about a half an hour to an hour when finally by the grace of God himself will finally stay on and fully boot on. :mad::mad:

I don't have astro or any task manger installed.

I'm really at a loss here folks. I called htc and they said that they would RMA it for me and as a last ditch resort I will do that but I was hoping the powers here might be able to lend me a hand. Thanks for all insightful help. PLLLEEAASE HELP!

Cheers, Jason
[EVO 4G General] devonparrish:
You're definitely going to need a new one. Mine was doing the same thing and its not fixable :/ but I got it swapped out same day from sprint, maybe you can ask HTC really nicely haha
[EVO 4G General] oreo632:
ok great, well thank you for letting me know. Hopefully they will either repair it or rma it. i am now off to return my evo to stock. Wish me luck....
[EVO 4G General] devonparrish:
Good luck man, hopefully they get it fixed for you! :D
[EVO 4G General] freditoj:
Have you tried using the phone without the SD card?

I used to have a similar issue, took the SD card out and no mor random reboots/resets.
[EVO 4G General] oreo632:
I knid of tried that, even reformatted my sd card. Etc and yet it still resets. :confused::mad::confused:

Oh well went to metro today to purchase a cheapy phone to hold me over while the evo is rma 'ed. HTC did say that they would tell me what is the matter with the phone when they determine whats up with it. IF I am told anything pertinent I will share it with everyone as I see this issue is quite a pain for a lot of people.

Cheers,

Hi,

Do you guys know if battery icon next to the clock can show current battery level in %? I was wondering if that is possible, it was it in windows mobile.

Regards,

ncc74656
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
I use Battery Indicator Pro for that. Adds another icon in notification area showing %. Remember that MS will not report anything other than 10% increments.
[Milestone 2 General] deutschmark:
motocharge app can show you the exact percentage
[Milestone 2 General] mnx:
it does not give percent in icon :?
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
It does. I just bought it and tested and it works.

How accurate it is I do not know.
[Milestone 2 General] mnx:
it doesn't give the percent in the battery icon but in the status bar...
[Milestone 2 General] w0ndersp00n:
To get battery percentage in the battery icon, you have to edit the framework. I don't know how that works, but I do know it's related to the framework.

Specific themes have the percentage in the battery icon.
[Milestone 2 General] mnx:
yes I know that, I've tried to do it with uot kitchen but after restart, I've got closing apps errors. Even with argent2stone rom

I think it's because ms2 give ranges by 10% and uot gives all percents.

sorry for my english
[Milestone 2 General] ncc74656:
Motocharge is quite nice. Is it possible to disable original battery indicator?

Can anyone shine the light on this? So that way i don't ending up flashing like a mad man,,lol

Just call at&t if you are an at&t subscriber and ask for the unlock code just ready you imei number, this is already my 2nd streak, I got the unlock for the first and so with th e 2nd. At&t rep asked me if I am going to.use the streak for other carrier just told no, I just want it unlocked. Gave imei of streak and within minutes I have my unlock code
[Streak 5 General] kingrichards:
So did they have to open a case? Or did they gave it to u right away?

So no other way to unlock other than this way

Is possible to use the back button to end a call?

I know that's possible to map the standby/reboot key to end call but i have a silicon cover who is covering that key and i don't use it very much because i have to press hard on it.

Will be very usefull to have the back button who ends my calls!!!

Excuse for my poor english.

Regards ,Rollbar.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] dachepo:

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] vlissine:
No. Only the upper (power) button.

I think that can be a possible thing, since there's some of keyboard mapping around, but its not a simple thing to do...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Ray_jai:
I can't end calls with the top power button. how can I do this? thanks
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] harr1994:
Lol guys there is a simple way too set the back key to end call

1.Open root manager and open the file /system/usr/keylayout/mimmi_keypad.kl in text editor

2. Change key 158 BACK WAKE_DROPPED TO key 158 BACK ENDCALL WAKE_DROPPED

3. Save the changes and thats all.....report if u get any error ;-)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] harr1994:
Wait!! Dont try the above method, it works but after reboot gives problems....dont know why?

Will find a workaround soon. :(

Edit: After system restore from xrecovery all issues are fixed......and back key does ends calls!...was it error on my device?..Can someone please try the same on their devices and post the result. 0:)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] harr1994:
So finally I have figured a simple process to map the back key to end call. You will need xrecovery to be installed(that means u need root as well)

Follow the procedure in post 6 and call urself from any other number....use the back key to end call.

Now restart you phone and let it boot normally......at this boot all keys will stop working......now boot into xrecovery and flash the keyboard u need from the link below

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=982341

....reboot

There would be no need to restore as keys would respond normally with back key set up to end calls....but I would however have a backup handy.

Worked fine on my x10 mini pro running cmv3.6. -:)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Ray_jai:
it doesn't work! None of the keys on my phone work now.

the link you provided does not have USA keyboard layout.

can someone please help me out. thanks!

what is cmv3.6? I can't seem to find anything on that in google.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] harr1994:
Is that supposed to be an april fool joke......I suppose americans have a qwerty keybord..and there are qwerty keyboards......under the link.....otherwise just restore a previous backup.

Did u see development section there u will find owains floyo cmv3.6
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Ray_jai:
No not a joke.

this is what I did.

There is a tab between endcall and power.

key 158 BACK WAKE_DROPPED

key 102 HOME WAKE

key 139 MENU WAKE_DROPPED

key 115 VOLUME_UP WAKE

key 114 VOLUME_DOWN WAKE

key 107 ENDCALL	POWER WAKE_DROPPED

key 85 FOCUS

key 212 CAMERA WAKE

I put it on my phone reboot. and the power button does nothing.

and restore to the xrecovery before the mod and the button works again. but it does not endcall.

the link doesn't show Qwerty US, which one is US?

I see, •QWERTY-EN | PT (ENGLISH) (Brazilian/Portuguese, is that the same?

I am also using stock rom btw.

any help would be great.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] harr1994:
See I had this workaround working for me on cm6 and it worked really fine now I have ditched my mini pro so I really can't help you much and I am not sure if it will work on stock rom so I am sorry if this caused you any problem.

Btw all the stuff I posted was to set back key to endcall..I dunno have any idea what it does with power key....seriously whatever was written it worked genuinely for me and I can't really help why it doesn't work for you....just asssume that method to be a sham and ignore it.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aircraft123:
Hello all and thx in advance.

ATT Captivate batch 1010

I had Cognition 2.3 I think on my phone and it worked great however I wanted to try a different ROM so I attempted to restore my phone to stock using ODIN one click. I realized after that that I never disabled the voodoo lag fix or deleted my user data.

Now I am stuck in a boot loop that either shows the white ATT logo screen flashing every couple seconds or the phone off charge screen re starting every couple seconds.

I bought a USB Jig and it works great so I can get into D/L mode easily but I have tried flashing the stock firmware at least 6 times now using different machines, different ports, different versions of ODIN and I've searched around these forums and others for several hours trying to find a solution. It seems that I needed to erase my user data in recovery mode and removed the lag fix before I did this but it is what it is. I have tried to get to recovery mode to no avail. All I can get to is download mode.

Any ideas on what I should/can do?

any help will be greatly appreciated.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venomio:
I had the exact same problem. Try this method, it's the one that worked for me when all others failed... But remember to follow it EXACTLY.

1. Pull out the battery.

2. Hold Volume UP+DOWN (Don't let go of them until you see the download screen).

3. Stick in the USB (which is connected to the computer).

4. Put the battery back in.

If not, you might need to get a USB Jig.

Thanks guys I flashed to Froyo and it worked!

I've since flashed clockwork recovery and gotten Serendipity 6.1

As far as getting into download mode I had to use one of the USB jigs.

I ordered one from the guy who does the rom reviews but you could make one as well.

On another note the new ROM seems to be discharging my battery really fast

Before I start investigating it as a problem I am going to charge it completely then let it discharge completely to calibrate it.

I just fixed mine last night, I had the exact same problem because of the exact same upgrade. What you need to do is get or make a usb jig. There's a couple resources around here for how to do it.

Here's a video showing how to make one:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rdn5GoRjhn0

Once I got my phone into download mode, I used Darky's ROM Resurrection Edition ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=940671 ) to restore my phone. Just scroll down to where it says "Files Needed" and download the Captivate version. Once you have that downloaded, use the jig to put your phone into download mode and follow the directions in the Darky's video (jump to about 2:30 into the video). Once I had my phone booting, I used clockwork to install Serendipity 6.

Hope that helps you as much as it helped me!!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
which odin3 are you using? 1.7? or the one click to stock?

you mentioned you had the bootloop problem before, so you should be using odin 1.7 with 2.2 stock.

open odin

get phone into download mode with your nice jig

unplug jig and plug in computer

box in odin should turn yellow.
