I just downloaded this file from roebeets instructions thinking it was the apx driver but after looking at the file it has alot in it is this something else?

gtab.apx.stock.3588.zip

Another question. .being that my device has never been modded do I need to download something to root it first before I flash 5.0? And would it be a good idea to use the.8 clockwork mod to backup first?

Sorry for the bombardment of noobism but I am truly trying to take all precautions.

And to Roebeet the Guy who said You messed his device up must have been totally clueless you gave probably the most detailed warning label possible thanks for your efforts and help.
[G Tablet General] bjd238:
Semi-Bricked but OK

Slight newbie myself and I did not follow instructions correctly the first time. The flash recovery worked and then I used the link to the 3588 and all worked well.

If you are willing to take the chance version 5 is great. I am very pleased and Robeet I want to thank you very much for the instructions and the patience to lay it all out for what we need to do. It makes the adventure worthwhile.

My phone got dropped last night and half of the screen has gone black. I need to send it back.

My plan was: Install stock rom then unroot.

I was on Cyanogen RC2 and I downloaded and tried to install both files from the "Stock Restore" section of the Resource Bible but both times, after I wiped everything and flashed the appropriate file, it takes a few seconds (way way less than usual when flashing a new ROM) and then says it's done. After I reboot, I'm still with Cyanogen. What is the deal and how do I actually get this thing back to stock?:confused:

Also, what does Tmobile do if you send back a phone that's been rooted and has a different ROM on it?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
I think it depends on if you are trying to get warranty service or an insurance replacement. If you are using your insurance, I don't think it matters what you have done to your phone...insurance is insurance. They won't do warranty service on a rooted phone though. I would wait for some others to chime in, but it might be a good idea to just finish it off and get an insurance replacement.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicgraner:
Wait, are you trying to flash the pcxxxx.zip (can't remember the rest this early) through recovery? If so it wont work I don't think you need to boot into bootloader and it will find the file flash it and your unrooted.

Hope that helped,

Nic
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darinmc:
It's the PD15IMG.zip file.

How did you root your phone. Did you Gfree or root.sh or visionary? If you did Gfree you have to go back to that thread and follow the process to reverse it, if you did the others you just drop the PD15IMG.zip file on the root of your sdcard, boot into bootloader, let it load the zip and follow the prompts.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFeens:
This is how you get it done :D
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whodatfever:
Well, Tmobile sent me another since it was only a few months old and under hardware warranty. The issue I have now is, the screen won't come on at all for me to get it back to stock. Will they see that and honor the warranty or will they fix it, see that it's rooted and not honor it?

Any encouraging words?

I can't seem to get the Weatherbug or CNN widgets to stay visible. I put them on a screen and they work fine for awhile. Then they disappear. The widget is definitely still they since I can't put anything else in the place it occupies and I can grab it and drag it to the remove Icon. In fact, removing the widget and putting it back is the only way I have found to make them visible again (note: I did not try a reboot or power off since its actually easier and faster to just put them back).

The email widgets (I have one for gmail and one for regular email),calendar widget, bookmark widget and Beautiful Widget Home have worked perfectly.

Seem to only be effecting some of the widgets. Anyone else seeing disappearing widgets?
[Xoom General] lanternca:
I have the same problem with the weatherbug widget. It is definitely still there - I can't put anything in its location and i can even long press and drag the invisible widget to the trash can.

any thoughts? Thanks!
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
I know the CNN widget depends on a network connection, when I'm offline it usually stops showing items. They just didn't code it to gracefully fail, it just shows an empty stack widget.

[Xoom General] lanternca:
Yeah, I expect that to happen. I sometimes lose network connection at night (not great signal in my bedroom - which according to my wife is a good thing!). I can understand an empty stack widget, but my weatherbug widget completely disappears. You bring up a good point though, maybe I'll leave it in the living room tonight so it doesn't lose connection and see if the widget disappears. I hope they fix that before the wifi only model comes out.

@OP - do you sometimes lose network connection. Could your problem also be related?
[Xoom General] papapena25:
I havn't had any problems with mine
[Xoom General] burden010:
Are you using the stock launcher? I know that on my phone in the past if the launcher runs into an issue this very same widget issue happened.
[Xoom General] melvnx:
I have had the same issues with my Cnn widgets and the weather. I have found that if you go in to the actual application from the app drawer it will refresh the widgets. Although for CNN you have to go to each feed for whatever widget you have. ex. tech widget stack, you must go the tech feeds in the CNN app and it brings the stack widget back up. Needs a fix
[Xoom General] rlrbjr:
I don't think that is the problem. It has been on WiFI the whole time (I have WiFi configured to never disconnect) and it's never been out of range of my router.

Yes its the stock launcher (I rather like it :) )

I'm pretty sure I tried that, but next time it happens I'll give that a shot.

And just to be clear; the widget is literally invisible (not just empty).
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
When a stack widget has no items it is invisible. It's likely that from time to time the widget update failed and left the empty widget.

-Bauxite

Sent from my Evo 4G
[Xoom General] rlrbjr:
Perhaps, but they never seem to recover. I've left them alone for hours and they never reappear. Since it only seems to happen to these two widgets I think the problem lies with the widget implementation (i.e. coding problems).

I'm hoping for an update and until I get one I'm not using the widgets.
[Xoom General] lanternca:
It didn't happen for a while now, but it did last night. I lost both the CNN widget and the weatherbug widget and they never recovered. i purposely refreshed all data and nothing. it's a bit annoying as the only solution is to delete the widget (if you long press in the general area where the widget was, it still thinks it's there and I can drag it to trash).

[Xoom General] gfacekilla:
Having the same problem with the CNN widget. I'm running LauncherPro and I thought it was the problem but I guess not. It must be a coding issue or refresh issue.
[Xoom General] singraham:
For Weaterbug, switch off "Enable my location" if it is on, and switch it on if it is off. That restores the widget. You can then set it as you wish.
[Xoom General] 760hacker:
I also have this problem. Mainly with the Accuweather widget disappearing. I use a static background. Stock Kernal. Not sure why it does this but.... I am sure this will get worked out in the upcomming builds.

I'm an android noob, so I was hoping that someone could tell me how to move/remove shortcuts from the program list. I'm using Zeam launcher and have a ton of picture books for my son. I'd like to create a folder in the programs list and move the shortcuts to the folder (freeing up some real estate). Also, I'd like to remove the shortcuts for places, twitter, voice, voice dialer, etc.

It was really simple to do this in WM, so I'm hoping it is something simple that I overlooked.

Kies is able to detect the device and suggest the firmware upgrade - only to crash thereafter.

In fact I am able to do everything else - sync, browse etc.

[Milestone 2 General] liuyanghejerry:
I read couples of threads and realize that if a CM mod is wanted, MS2 must have its bootloader unlock.

Since most work is done in /system partition, why do a bootloader modify is needed?

According to the update.zip, we can modify /system partition already, so why do we need bootloader unlock?
[Milestone 2 General] momus87:
CyanogenMod needs its own kernel.

I guess that, since cyanogen is based on gingerbread now,

it runs with a more up-to-date kernel than the milestone's.

The locked bootloader and the efuse thing prevents updating the kernel.

It's possible that someone, using Cyanogen source, makes a backport running on our kernel, but I think it's a huge work...

However, the clever guys from freemymoto.com have created a hack that is capable of launching an other kernel after the legit one starts.

If salvation comes (Cyanogen alleluia :p), it will certainly come from this project.

Actually, the hack works on DroidX, and Droid2. So it is 99.9% sure that with some work, it may run on milestone 2 as well.

So, to get Cyanogen work on MM2, we need :

- A very good developer, with android (of course !), linux kernel and kinit knowledge, able to port freemymoto's hack, and Cyanogen

- Hardware drivers for the Milestone (bluetooth, lan, gsm, 3g, touchscreen...)

If we find the golden dev, I personnally think that CyanogenMod could be out for milestone2 sooner than what most people think... :)
[Milestone 2 General] liuyanghejerry:
I LOVE YOUR REPLY!

Well, this is the first reply to me in this forum.Ya...nobody reply me before...so bad..

Milestone has also a locked bootloader, but a CM7 port running on it. That is what makes me want to do something on my MS2.

I'm a C++ programmer, so I learn everything about this these days.

Thank you, really.

And I think I'd read all the freemymoto.com site RIGHT NOW~~
[Milestone 2 General] momus87:
Well, if you think you can be the golden dev, you just made my day...

If you try this, I (and almost everybody here) will at least help providing the hardware drivers.

But the first step is to make the hack work on MM2...

Edit : For the milestone1, the bootloader security has been compromised using a leaked unofficial rom build,

which lead to custom kernels, without needing a hack like freemymoto's.

In fact, freemymoto's hack is based on a milestone1 project, which was abandoned after the rom leak.

It circumvents both bootloader lock and efuse by starting a second kernel after the first one.

(What I couldn't figure out is what happens of the first one... Still in memory? Still using some ressources?)
[Milestone 2 General] liuyanghejerry:
I read the site yesterday, however sadly, I don't have any experience about writing drivers of cell phone.

So I just sent a e-mail to them to ask if I can provide any help and what to do.

Hope I can help. I'll try my best.

For about the second kernel...I guess I have to read source to know what happened to them...

Anyway, thank you for your reply. At least I get a way to help^^
