I don't often use Windows, but I think I can offer a work around. If Windows doesn't want to copy the file to your device in one chunk, you might try splitting it into several smaller files. I searched Google for "freeware file splitter" and found several options. You could also create a multi-part archive, such as a rar or zip file. After copying the pieces to your Xoom, rejoin/decompress them in place. Not an ideal solution, but if your file ends up where you want it, you've won. Hope this works.
[Xoom General] keitht:
The fact that Explorer is crashing sounds more like a Windows issue then an issue with the Xoom. What version of Windows are you using (XP, Vista, Win 7)? If you use Wifi, you can try to use a file explorer on the Xoom that supports network access to a share on your PC like AndroXplorer to transfer that way.
[Xoom General] tonebone:
I am using windows 7, I am downloading AndroExplorer as we speak and will try it, thanks!
[Xoom General] khov07:
If explorer crashes, it's definitely a Windows issue. Almost makes me wonder if you have enough available memory to complete the job.
[Xoom General] ZanshinG1:
IIRC the Xoom's file system has a maximum 4gb size. I know my droid2 does on the /sdcard.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
All other android devices use fat32 for windows mass storage support, but I don't think the xoom needs to. Has someone with root looked at the filesystem?
[Nook Color General] jokeefe10:
i'm thinking of rooting a nook color but i have a quick question. i have downloaded books on my nook now with notes that i would like to keep for school. do they get deleted when i root the nook and if so is there anyway to keep those notations?

I was trying so updates and partitioned my gtab. What do I do. I no longer have my files. Can I us my laptop to reinstall. If so where do I get started. want to use tnt or vegan. Help! . . . .....
[G Tablet General] the3dman:
Read the sticky on how to use NvFlash to restore to stock, and yes you can do it from a laptop. :-)
[G Tablet General] patillo5:
Thanks

It was not as bad as I thought. I just rebooted and it all was there. Theses pads are nothing like the phones. If that had happened with the phone all would be loss. So which Rom more stable and fast? Tnt or Began? Is there a better on than these?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
OK, I've seen the videos of the Thunderbolt with fast boot, booting up in like 10 seconds. I have fast boot enabled but it still takes over a minute to boot. Any thoughts on what I can do to fix this?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disorientedmind:
I don't know if this was coincidence but I noticed that on mine after I checked fast boot it was still slow to boot. Tried it a second time and it loaded in about 12 sec. The first time might have been getting it setup in cache or something, don't quote me on that though.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craighwk:
Same. Fast boot seemed like a normal reboot to me.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
I've tried everything, removed all apps and rebooted several times - still slow booting. I wiped the device and then rebooted several times and still all slow boot. I've posted this on various forums and so far I've seen a few people that fast boot is not working. As of yet no one has came across a fix that I've seen.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] youneek:
Ate you using a custom launcher?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russell5:
This might sound dumb but just checking.

Fast boot only works when you power down using power off form the power menu.

If you choose reboot it does not do anything with fastboot.

Are you choosing reboot or shutdown then pressing the power button?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
I am using the stock launcher.

I'm holding in the power button and choosing "Power off/Shut phone down" option.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
Just to make sure I'm not just over looking the obvious. All I should have to do is

1. Go into Settings -> Power and check Fast Boot

2. Hold in power button and choose shut down

a. Phone turns off

3. Hold power button in to "fast boot"

Is that correct? Or is their a hidden step? lol I'm starting to get paranoid that I'm just blatantly overlooking a setting. :eek:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russell5:
That sounds write. When you boot back up and go into setting is the fast boot option still checked?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
Yes it's still checked. If it were just my phone I would say it's defective, but the fact that my friend got his same time I got mine and it's doing the same thing really makes me want to think I'm just missing something.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russell5:
Does it show you the very first htc screen?

The one that just says htc NOT the one that says htc quietly brilliant.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
It does show the "HTC" screen. Here is a video of it booting up that I took earlier today, in case it helps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kDOgM0g1vo
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russell5:
Thanks for the video its helpful.

On my that screen does not show when i use fast boot.

And when i use fast boot i dont need to hold the power button that long.

So for some reason your phone it not doing the fast boot.

Can you check the difference in time it takes to turn off with the option on and off?

I believe it turns off faster when fast boot is on.

But i am really out of ideas. very odd.

Another dumb question. Is the fast boot option also checked under settings>applications?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
With option unchecked:

Turn off time: 15.8 seconds

Boot time: 59.4 seconds to lock screen

With option checked:

Turn off time: 24.1 seconds

Boot time: 58.8 seconds to lock screen

I had my friend check his wife's phone and fast boot is doing the same on it. I'm really inclined to say I'm missing something, but I just don't see it. I'm not new to android, I've had an android device since the Moto Droid and have rooted them, restored them, backed them up, put custom roms on them, etc... I'm really starting to feel stupid though :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
It is checked in both places.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nazo0:
yupp mines doing it too, i have it checked in and it loads as if its not clicked, which is fine since fastboot is only putting the only in hibernation mode and not really restarting it, just another way to make it look as if it has a fast boot, which it doesnt
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1454:
Yeah, same here. On a side note, I can't wait to get some custom roms so I can get rid of that annoying thunderbolt boot screen.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
Haha, I love the boot screen. Its great to see peoples faces when you hear the storm as it's booting up. :D
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raider5oh:

Off topic, cant you copy bootanimation.zip files to /data/local without root?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] destroyerbmx:
My fastboot does not work either but I am using a custom launcher
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orcsbane13:
I'm using stock launcher and my fastboot does not work either. I'm thinking about flashing the newest ruu to see if that helps. Just sucks setting everything up again.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 651egg:
works perfect for me. Everything is stock.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xpiramental:
works great

My fastboot works great if i shut it down properly. Its instant if it were not for the thunderbolt splash screen.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orcsbane13:
I flashed the latest ruu and now mine works perfectly.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1454:
I haven't looked that deeply into it. I'm sure you can.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
Where did you find the latest ruu? I'm assuming it's a leaked one and not a Verizon official?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cs88:
My fast boot only works when I'm on WiFi.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orcsbane13:
Yeah, its a leaked one. It's in the development section. Just look for the thread titled PG05IMG version 1.12.605.9
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvst8:
Yeah, based on this post (androidforums.com/.../300177-thunderbolt-fast-boot-not-working-2.html) it looks like you must be in a 4G coverage area or have WiFi on. I just tested it with WiFi on and fast boot worked just fine. :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] URPREY:
You mean like typing "creditability" when you REALLY mean "credibility"?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lorijuan1024:
mine works it took about or less than 10 secs
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeeter82:
I've confirmed this too. Just got my Thunderbolt yesterday and have kept it 100% stock. I'm in a 3G only area, and I can only do fastboot when I'm connected via WiFi.

It's not really a biggie, but I hope there will be a fix for this.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] destroyerbmx:
confirmed it only works with 4g / wifi with bamf 1.1 rom
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shelooga:
I noticed it had just done fast boots for me over 4g. I had so many cold boots rooting while using wifi I guess
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indiankid25:
If anyone who knows how to make roms would be willing to teach me how to create roms I would be extremely greatful if not teaching me one on one could someone write a how to?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] |Melvin|:
You can find forums about that ..you can learn how to do it
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
1st things 1st. You will need to read quite a bit. You will need some basic understanding of Linux, download SDK (android tools kit) Here are 2 of the sites to get the free software.

Then I would suggest you read in the Android Development section (not Vibrant dev) the one that is @ the top when you first get on to XDA Here is the links:

XDA Android Dev

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=524

http://www.linux.org/lessons/beginner/l1/lesson1e.html

SDK:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Then once you can play around a bit and be able to see the code and see the structure of the rom, mod , etc then Try taking one apart and putting it back together, This will get you educated on how to mod something.

Then start to try a theme first and see if you can do some theming on the phone then once you have done that, Then you will be able to find people to help you

That is my suggestion and approach, good luck

i NEED FULL explained .. TUTORIAL .. on how 2 install cyanogen !!

EVERY TIME I TRY 2 DO IT .. i brick my phone .. !!

I FLASHED IT 3 times in 3 hours ! TEH **** O.o ??

LOL ..

thanks =X
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
I dont want to sound rude but did you actually read the instructions? I mean its fully explained there and if you would start looking thru some threads in the forums you will find an answer.

The developers put so much time into the roms and most users appreciate the work and in some case want to help with stating bugs. And then there is some who dont even have 5 minutes to read on thread. I mean look at the ratio there. You want to use the rom start reading its easy. I think nobody will give you a major tutorial here as everything you need to know is withhin the thread. I mean if you couldnt even find the cm thread in the mini dev section explains to me how much you have actually looked thru the forums. So please if you want to have a cm on your phone show some initiative and read first. Then start writing exact issues you have. There is also a discussion thread so you really dont need to open up a new thread. Everybody will help you and this the great thing about xda but nobody can think and work for you.

Please dont feel offended but look at owain who developed the rom he works a lot more than 30 hours in his FREETIME and you couldnt spare 5 minutes.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Sira.:
i did Read .. i followed the instructions step by step .. And i ended up having a bricked phone .. !

And seriously man ..

where do u want me 2 look for the cyanogen mod for my x10 mini .. ? in the google nexus section .. ??

That doesn't make sense at all ...

Why don't u just post the link of the thread ur talkin about ..

and we're done .. -.- !
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
is it really that hard to find the x-mini development forum?!? I mean you are basically in it already. so anyways here is the link

search the forum and find your answer. Try to ask specifically what your problem is and tell us the steps you did when you tried to flash it.where do you have problems there is a lot of reasons.

do a full wipe (factory reset in xrecovery) before you flash thats probably the issue. make sure you downloaded the right files. make sure you have xrecovery correctly installed. before flashing do a back up so you don't need to use seus again to reflash sony firmware. make sure you have the latest kernel. what else do you to know? its all in the threads its all been answered before ...
[HTC Inspire 4G] ftmoe:
Hello,

I turned off the phone to install a Zagg Shield while here at work, and when I try to turn the phone back on I get 5 short vibrations and a solid green light. Nothing on the screen. When I do the combinations with the volume buttons to try to get into fastboot or whatever, it does the exact same thing. I took out the battery for about 20-30min and tried again to no success.

I am running Android Rev 3.2 if that helps.

Thank You
[HTC Inspire 4G] ftmoe:
It finally decided to turn back on.

Very interested however to what the 5 vibrations and green light indicated..
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
After looking around a little this is definitely soundling like a hardware error code. I'm trying to find a list of hardware errors for the Inspire, but I don't know if it exists...

I've found a few threads other places relating this directly to a qualcomm hardware issue. (http://www.incredibleforum.com/foru...off-vibrates-5-times-green-light-flashes.html) On 3/7 on of the members of the "Rescue Squad" over there stated

Still looking for qualcomm diagnostic codes....
[HTC Inspire 4G] stormtrooper1:
Had this happen with several phones installing Zagg on the screen. 98% of the time if you wern't able to boot back up, chances are and most likley you got some of the liquid in between the screen and it made its way onto your main board frying your hard drive. In short a ruined phone. I have learned the hard way to stay away from Zagg because using the liquid to apply the sheild is like playing Russian roulette with your phone.

Be sure to let it dry completely before running any juice through it to avoid a short.

Hello guys i've got some strage force close in the game "Unblock Me FREE" with Sense based Custom ROMs like LeeDrOiD or Android Revolution HD, on the Stock HTC 1.32 ROM and CyanogenMod 7 it works well.

Someone else got this issue? :confused:

Yes i did a full wipe, and yes i've downloaded the ROMs twice and checked the md5sum's and yes i used the correct radio.

Thank you :-)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hydraah:
Hi,

I was having the same problems! I even had problems with it on CM7, before I wiped the dalvik cache.

Mate of mine running the same custom sense ROM had no problems with Unblock Me Free, so I really don't know what the cause is.

Have you tried wiping the dalvik cache?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xReini:
Yes i tried but still force close. :(
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hydraah:
It has got to be something wrong with Unblock me FREE - perhaps we should email the developer, and with any luck they will look at it for us :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xReini:
Hm. I'm not sure, because I tried it now the third time and with the stock rom it works fine.

And with the new GingerBread leak it worked too.

I'm confused but I will write an email.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hydraah:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hydraah:
Unfortunately the only solution I've found is to flash a different ROM, like CM7 nightly or a stock ROM.

You could try the gingerbread leedroid ROM maybe, I haven't tried it with Unblock me free yet.

[EVO 4G General] baiatul:
My cellphone's internet stopped working. I had the 4G status icon and 4 great bars, but the browser, twitter, market, still would not work. After pulling out the battery several times, playing with the settings, etc. I turned 4G off and then all of a sudden the cell worked on 3G.

I showed up at the Sprint store and they told me "....hmmm, you know, the satellites,... you know.... are not working...... mine doesn't work neither...." (sic) It was true. The salesperson's EVO wasn't working either.

OK. they showed me a terminal screen stating that 4G was not working as expected, they were preforming tests.

The problem is that for about an hour I thought my phone had gone bad, until it occurred to me that I should turn 4G off. Then it worked, slow, but it worked. (to tell you the truth, I even went back to factory settings).

I told them that out of courtesy, they should send affected costumers a SMS or email advising about the 4G outage.
[EVO 4G General] liamaa:
I noticed the same thing. Didn't realize it was because of an outage though. What's weird is that 4g service worked great via the hotspot. Just not on the handset. Weird, right?
[EVO 4G General] DarkManX4lf:
I don't know what you are talking about....I'm in NYC and 4g is working fine for me ....I am using it right now.

I am on cm7 but that shouldn't make a difference.
[EVO 4G General] baiatul:
yes, that's what I mean. You get the 4G icon and you think everything is fine. But it works only partially, so it's hard to realize that you need to disable 4G in order to get the internet working...
[EVO 4G General] baiatul:
It worked for me again for 30 minutes then the internet (browser) wouldn't work again, so I disabled 4G again. It wasn't working for any of the guys at the Sprint store. So it must be on and off. I also asked them when was this outage going away, they couldn't answer. they just told me if I go to another tower (area) it might work.

It wouldn't turn on for me today around 4. I needed it to refresh my twitter faster so I can get free UFC tix from Dana lol but I didn't get crap :(
[EVO 4G General] doublehoya:
Same here- I work in midtown (east 50s); for the past couple of days, 4G has been intermittent at best (for me, whether on the handset, via wireless tether or via easytether)- but today, it just went out altogether. shows as connected and getting 2 or even 3 bars, but it won't connect to email, browser etc. when using the speednet app, I usually get time outs (999ms ping), but occasionally will go thru and get about 2 down/1 up (vs 5-7 down when working).

I guess I'd be a lot more pissed off about it if I hadn't picked up a Thunderbolt this morning... as much as I like Sprint and my Evo, that damn LTE has got some serious speed to it.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] himom:
Is there a way to remote into an android device, either ADB, SSH, or VNC? I know there are various daemons for these methods, but none are 'reverse', meaning that no port-forwarding is required.

Say a device sits behind a firewall/NAT and I want to administer it from it's WAN IP. Instead of configuring a port-forward on the router, I'd connect to the WAN IP on a specific port.

Is this possible?

I've created a ~500mb ext2 partition on my sdcard on redux custom rom 1.0.2 on htc desire. However, Link2sd doesn't seem to like this partition (complains that it can't mount and can't write a script to automount at boot), but then I read that redux comes with something installed already. However, it doesn't seem to be using the partition properly.

Mount shows up thus:

#mount

...

/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /sd-ext type ext2 (rw,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,data=ordered)

...

Any suggestions about what I need to do to get this partition used as part of the system storage?

Thanks in advance.
