[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlevy73:
Coming from the Nexus S, in some respects, the Bolt is a step backwards for me. Don't get me wrong it's a great device and the speeds of LTE is fantastic. However, super amoled of the NS is much better IMO as is the chipset used (hummingbird). The TB feels quite sluggish in comparison. So in the end LTE just isn't enough for me to keep the device.

I have had 5 different android phones (X, D2, D1, D2G, DI) and ALL of them needed extra or extended batteries. Even with CM and Tasker.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HorsexD:
I too Came from Fascinate And this thing Is alot smoother on browsing and Has Flash 10.2. The 3g speeds seem alot faster than Fascinate and 4g Blows it away. After dowloading an app to turn off 3g/4g Battery life Improves alot. Plus im liking how stock browser lets me switch to desktop only for Browsing and the bigger screen is cool too. not Missing Fascinate at all. :)

[Android Software Development] Dark3n:
The content of your layout.xml file does not really help im afraid :p.

Here are some code snippets to help you out, if you have further questions ask (after consulting google :)).

To save something in preferences:

//Get out object to have acces to preferences

SharedPreferences settings = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);

//Get an int value named XDA with default value 1

int myInt = settings.getInt("XDA", 1);

To save it again:

//We get an editor object for our settings object

SharedPreferences.Editor prefEditor = settings.edit();

//Now we put our changes in the editor

//We want the XDA value to be 2

prefEditor.putInt("XDA", 2);

//Now save the changes

prefEditor.commit();

You can put the safe part to the onClick action of your button, and load values in onCreate method of your activity.

I guess I'm too big of an idiot right now. Does anyone know where I might find some code (a sample app) that loops through a number of widgets, collecting the data, then stores them in preferences? I think if I could see it written, I could understand it better and modify it to what I need.

Thanks for any help (remember when this was all new to you?).
[Android Software Development] Dark3n:
What kind of data would you want to collect from a widget?

[Android Software Development] greydarrah:
I wanted to get data from the widgets that I listed in the xml info pasted in my original post. It could all be treated as string data.
[Android Software Development] Dark3n:
I think what you are looking for is a RemoteView? Set up a RemoteView on a Widget and i think you can use it to retrieve for an example, the text value.

I'm gonna go sleep now, check RemoteView out, if it is not what you are looking for please explain further whats going on :).
[Android Software Development] greydarrah:
What I have is the 4 widgets in my original post (some EditText and some Spinner) and I need to figure out how to write what I'm guessing would be some type of "For i = 0 to 3" loop that goes through my widgets, collecting the data from each widget, then stores that data as a preference, to be called and put back into the widgets, whenever the app is re-opened. My problem is that I'm a VB programmer, just starting to learn java, so I don't know how to write this...where in a class (java file???) does the code go...do I use a "for" loop or just list the known widget id names one by one to get the values, etc...

That's why I was hoping someone would know of a sample app that might be doing something similar so that I can see the code structure and adapt it to my app.
[Android Software Development] rigman:
Create a Preferences.xml file to store the preferences as shown in the link I posted above.

Then create a class to display your view. i.e. If you view is main, display it with setContentView(R.layout.main) as shown below.

package com.me.mypackage;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.content.SharedPreferences.Editor;
import android.preference.PreferenceManager;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;

public class Main extends Activity {

SharedPreferences preferences;
Editor edit;
private EditText mWeightEdit;
private Button confirmButton;

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);

// get a link to the preferences file and an Editor to update it
preferences = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
edit = preferences.edit();

// get a reference to your edittext field
mWeightEdit = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.weight);
confirmButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.confirm);

// create a listener for your 'Confirm' or 'Okay' button to know when the user is finished
confirmButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {

// retrieve the values with getText
String myWeight = mWeightEdit.getText().toString();

// Use editor to store the values back into the Preferences.xml file
edit.putString("weight", myWeight);
edit.commit();

}
});

}

Sorry, but put that together in a hurry, and I'm a newbie to Android too. So probably made some mistakes. But maybe that will get you headed in the right direction.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xavier2404:
I downloaded and installed the Incredible S Beta rom that is listed somewhere on this site for the Incredible. My issue is I want to revert to another ROM, HOWEVER, now my Superuser keeps force closing and will not allow ROM Manger to flash. I try to reboot in HBoot and ONLY get the start-up screen when doing Vol- and Power. Any suggestions on how to get into Hboot or another way to flash a different ROM when SuperUser will NOT allow permissions or Rom Manger wont reboot into Recovery (because superuser forecloses and wont let me flash Rom Manager

BTW-The Incredible S Rom works great...just NO pic/video (As it states in the description.)

Editing to take away some of the clutter (my clutter)

I am not sure what happened. As stated above once the ROM (which is great!) was installed, Rom Manager was no longer granted superuser access (was trying to reboot into recovery via Rom Manager). It wiped the Recovery Version from the phone and would not let me flash a new recovery. Everything else seemed to work fine (superuser permissions, ie. SetPC, etc.)

I tried plugging the phone in and reflashing Unrevoked directly to the phone. Unrevoked stated the root access was denied and asked if I had a "newer firmware".

I also tried uninstalling superuser (to only reinstall and see if it fixed the issue), however, Superuser was included in the ROM and would not let me uninstall.

The only way I was able to get back into Recovery was to re-run Unrevoked Flash and UNPLUG the phone when Unrevoked managed (somehow) to get the phone into bootloader. From there Clockwork ran fine.

Installed a different ROM and all is good.

The only thing I can think of is: In some post regarding the Incredible S being not branded to a certain carrier. When the ROM was installed, it showed "EVDO" in the notification bar (which leads me to believe it is for Sprint), I am not sure how THAT would affect anything being on a Verizon phone...again..only thing I can think of.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] evilkorn:
Just reboot the phone directly into recovery.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xavier2404:
It wont let me. I dont think...I tried the Vol-+power...nothing..just reboots. Tried booting into recovery via Rom Manager, but since superuser no longer is granting persmission it wont even do that...is there another way to flash a different ROM?

I just tried reflashing Unrevoked directly to it...it failed to access boot, something about the firmware being too new...???
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shahkam:
I dont know anything about your device but maybe your root is broken? Re root and re install superuser goodluck.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xavier2404:
Oh, HTC Incredible.

I went into Rom Manager (and against ALL I have read) am trying to instal and reboot using Rom Manager...instead of going into recovery mode...phone is just sitting here "thinking" right now...nothing YET about being denied root access...fingers crossed...

OK, not sure this was SMART...Hooked phone back up to PC, ran Unrevoked flash kit again...unplugged phone once it came up in recovery...have access NOW to CLockwork...wiped data..installing different ROM as I type...hopefully this will work..

YAY...close call...sorry to waste everyones time..lol. So..If your installing the INcredible S Rom onto your incrediable..I have learned two things...1.) Unrevoked failed to push recovery due to the firmware...2.) you may lose superuser ability....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dark3n:
You would get more help if your thread title would actually be helpful.

Include your phone model, the rom you tried, and what happened (SuperUses FCs[forcecloses]).

Caps, lots of exclamation marks and a title like ZOMFG I NEED HELP, usually deters skilled people from threads like this.

[Bada Software and Hacking General] ghertgh:
Hello!

A few weeks ago, my wave started to do crazy things.

The camera didn't work and it freezed when trying to make a call.

I decided to flash the latest firmware (XXJL2 full) via MultiLoader.

This solved the camera problem but not the freeze problem:

If i dial a number and press call, the phone freezes for about a minute.

Then it makes the call like normal and after the call it freezes for another minute.

For incoming calls, it freezes for a minute and then rings, even when the caller already hanged up.

Did anybody have this problem before?

~ghertgh

BTW sorry for my poor english.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] TAMHAN:
Hi,

I have seen similar strangeness with my Wave I (permanent reboots) after updating to 1.2.

On german telefon-treff, some users claim that a master reset fixes the problem...
[Bada Software and Hacking General] ghertgh:
Oh I forgot to say:

I already did some master resets, I downloaded the firmware from another source and reinstalled it, didn't help.

I'll try to flash an older firmware now..
[Bada Software and Hacking General] goofyog:
Hello

Didn't You dropped your wav in to the water? if not, try the service, this is very odd problem, mostly because you did master and flash.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] ghertgh:
Older firmware doesn't work too.

So i think it's hardware-related.

Nope, didn't drop it into the water or something like that.

My problem with the service is that the phone is unlocked, so I think my warranty is void.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] waveboy:
if u think your problem is hardware related try and flash back to the original firmware which u got with your phone or the latest firmware for your region. after that the service centre should not detect that you have flashed your firmware and you will still get it covered under warranty. or do you mean that your phone was locked when you bought it and that you unlocked it?
[Bada Software and Hacking General] ghertgh:
exactly. I removed the SIM lock because I traveled to Germany for some weeks and wanted to use a prepaid card.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] adfree:
Depend how unlocked... Software solution could have sideffects.

Only codes are safest way...

Best Regards
[Bada Software and Hacking General] ghertgh:
I don't know how it was unlocked because it was unlocked by a phone shop.

I'll just send it to the nearest Samsung Service Partner, let's see what happens.

Has anyone been having problems with the casing after some use?

Mine has become creaky whenever you squeeze the phone. Especially at the chin

Would I be able to send my phone in for a warranty repair with that claim?

And being a hardware issue, do I have to unroot and revert to stock when I send it in?

I hate this plastic-y material the phone was made with. Makes it feel quite cheap.

Hi ansar.

Can I use this ROM to rollback to a pre-NoDo versione (7004...) ?

Just to try to unlock my NOBRAND, European (Italy) HD7 and then update again to 7390 ;)

[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
Yes. I finally rooted my phone.

After 6 months of use.

Anyway, I used the "Super-One-Click" method to root. Got SuperUser permission and all that. Which, apparently, signifies that I have root access now. amirite?

k

Now. I downloaded a rom/theme I want applied to my phone. Called "Minimal Magic."

It's like sleek and simplistic. Black and white. Which is what I want for the Launcher that I'm using. (Launcher7)

So after a little research on my own.

I know that I need:

-a version of CyanogenMod.

-to back up current ROM stuff.

-reboot in recovery? to flash the rom.

Rooting wasn't hard and I didn't feel like I would brick it or lose any data/files.

But seeing the process of flashing a rom AFTER rooting. Idk. It's making me a little iffy.

From my understanding. It's going to "wipe" the entire rom that I'm currently running on my Fascinate. [2.1-update]

And flash this CyanogenMod rom? (Was thinking about getting CM6)

So when it flashes and assuming everything goes well, it's gonna be like a factory reset, but with a different rom, which I can apply the .apk I downloaded earlier of Minimal Magic for CM. But my launcher or settings won't be loaded, so I'd have to go back in and re-add everything? Update all the settings again and get everything back to normal, just with a different theme.

Maybe someone can walk me through this?
[Android Themes] ULoveAriana:
You need a rom that has the theme chooser (cm7) which minimal magic os compatible with. I'm running the theme right now. Yes you have to wipe, factory reset & all & yes you need a recovery to do this. When I first rooted I used the free app from the market called rom manager & I flashed the recovery that rom manager has which is clockword. I used this to backup my current stock rooted rom then I flashed the first new rom I used then after wiping. True enough you're responsible for what happens to your phone but I can say as long as you don't do anything really weird or stupid you should be fine...now I still use that recovery & I'm running aospcmod on my hero cdma sooooo roms, the process & blah blah could be different for your phone ....I hope this helps some

My Hero is eating grape poptarts
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
So, contacts, sms, photo ID's. Stuff like that will be gone?

I wish I didn't have to re-apply all my settings.

Also, I saw a video of a guy flashing a new rom. All of his apps were gone, since..obviously it was like a factory reset. That means I'ma have to install allll the apps I downloaded before, again? D:
[Android Themes] Dark3n:
Yes, but you can use apps like Titanium Backup (its not free, but the best there is), to backup all your apps and restore them later.

It also backs up sms,etc. but it is not guaranteed that it can be restored on a totally different rom.

btw: Use edit for a more descriptive title please something with your device and maybe CM7 and minimal magic.
[Captivate Accessories] SeanHacker:
Just thought I'd share with you guys. I saw a post by John.Smith so I actually ordered one and it looks even better in person. This this fits so well on my Captivate. It seems as though it's precision cut by a CNC Machine. It's almost an exact fit. I haven't seen any better for our phone yet. The texture actually gives it a little more grip so it won't so easily slip out of my hand. And I've bought a ton of skins. The material is extremely high quality. It's really easy to put on! It only took me about 5 minutes and now I have an awesome looking phone!!! I LOVE THIS SKIN!!! You guys should check him out on ebay. It's well worth the money!!!
