Solution: Searching for an APP or maybe even a program for MAC for bulk editing my VCF card.
Recently I noticed some smudges in all of my photos (see attached pictures). I thought it was just a dirty lens but I took the lens cover off and cleaned the lens thoroughly. It's not the lens cover either because even with the cover off the smudges are still there. The lens itself seems pretty sealed with no easy way to open it up, plus it's a bit too risky for me to attempt since I don't want to break anything. I bought the phone in another country so taking it back to get it fixed is not an option. I looked back at all the pictures I've taken and it seems to show up all of a sudden. I don't think it's software related because it shows up in the stock camera app as well as 3rd party apps. Also, sometimes I get horizontal lines in my photos especially if there is a lot of white background (see pic#2). I'm not as concerned about that though.
P.S. I have a Galaxy S2 from T-Mobile.
How do you wipe a phone completely clean? My husband has a new job w/ phone, so we want to get rid of his Charge. I have a DInc that I plan on shedding before year's end, and I too want to make sure all personal info, pics etc. are off. Do I just learn how to restore to factory setting & remove the sd card?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe app Clean Master claims it can extend battery life and device performance by killing apps--even offering a button to kill all apps. I thought killing apps was unnecessary since Android does this automatically when RAM is full and that killing apps manually actually drains battery life. What's the deal? Is swiping an app away from the Recent Apps List the same as killing an app? I currently do this often because the list is usually packed.

On the one hand I'm happy for having recovered, but if one day I want to permanently delete photos, I have the fear that the other person recovers.
How I can delete all photos, videos and files in the cache memory?
My Phone'sinternal memory is full. I ran the SD Maid System Cleaner and it shows that I can clean 1.25 GB of memory in datalog folder .
Is It safe to clean this folder with this tool ?
I have developed an application and want to sign it. After signing the application when I try to Align the final package with zipalign. But there's no file called zipalign in tools directory. Can someone guide me regarding this?
Moreover, after signing the application when I try to install the application it gave me "com.satloc signatures do not match the previously installed version; ignoring!". To remove this error I tried -wipe_data. After doing this I again tried to load the application with adb install SatLoc.apk but it again gave me an error this time it
DDM dispatch reg wait timeout Can't dispatch DDM chunk 52454151: no handler defined Can't dispatch DDM chunk 48454c4f: no handler defined pkg: /data/local/tmp/SatLoc.apk Failure [-12]
What is this and how to remove this? I want to load the signed application in emulator. Is zipalign necessay for this purpose? If yes then from where can I get zipalign utility.
Always seems to be running. Anybody know what it does?

If I use a Utility class in my Application than to use that class in my main Activity do I have to create the object of that class or I can directly Import that class in my main activity?
In the nutshell, all I want to be clear about is that basically how can I use the utility class in my Main Activity?
I've got a common use-case wherein a user selects one item out of many (say, on a spinner or autocomplete list), then enters the data. For example, let's say the user selects a country. Ultimately, the data I want is the country code, not the country name; but the users will want to select based on name, not code. To put it another way, user's will select "United States", but I ultimately want that to translate into "US".
There are a lot of countries. Is there an easy way to setup a mapping in Android to hash from the name to the code? I've thought of a few solutions, none of them are quite satisfactory in my mind:
A database containing country/code, which I can query on. Setting up all countries as strings in strings.xml, then retrieving the resource by name. Creating a huge Map in code and using that. (This is the least satisfactory answer).
Find a lib which can provide url parsing/building functionality which can be used with Android platform. Character escaping is desired.

I set up the USB driver on my Windows laptop and connected my Droid X to the USB port. Windows XP can see the Droid just fine in Windows Explorer as a removable USB device, but the DDMS utility shows no devices. Running "adb devices" in a DOS window lists no devices either. Yes, the java.exe location has been added to my PATH. Yes, the Droid is set to allow USB debugging. So why can't DDMS see my phone?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSometimes I need to provide a Context object to call specific functions, such as
Intent intent = new Intent(context, MyClass.class);
in order to start a service
context.startService(intent);
Or, provide a Context object to do a query
Cursor cursor = context.managedQuery(uri, projection, null, null, null);
If this is done in a UI class which extends Activity, that's fine.
However, If I want to create my own utility class (a singleton) that doesn't extend anything and call these functions, I don't have necessary Context object. Now my workaround is to pass an activity reference while initializing the utility class and have that reference to call those functions. I'm wondering what's the correct way to do that. It should not be reasonable to have every class to extends Context so that it can call those functions.
Is there an app that will backup and restore your desktop widgets to there original position. I know you can backup/restore your icons with Launcher Pro, Titanium, etc... but they do not restore working widgets. Is the only way to do this through a complete system restore like nandroid?
I would like to be able to restore my desktop with widgets after something like a factory reset or custom ROM install. Is it possible to restore just the desktop/widgets from a nandroid backup? What data would I restore to accomplish that?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe can now do partial flashes with the CL14 SBL.... If you have not had the CL14 official update yet, you can follow these steps to get it:
Remember... THIS WILL PUT THE CL14 BOOTLOADER ON YOUR PHONE!
What you need:
Sprints Update Utility
1. Create a datatool back-up.
2. Download and install Sprints Update Utility found above.
3. Run the program (now called SWUpdater) and follow all the directions until it says "Flash Downloading Complete".
Once you have the official CL14 update on your phone, or if you already had it, and you would like to flash SDX/Joey's Kernel (and Max's Recovery), follow the steps below.
What you need:
CL14 official update
An SDX/Joey's Kernel
Max's Recovery
1. Create a datatool back-up... (Although you most likely wont need it if you are just flashing a kernel.... But JUST in case, you should create a datatool back-up if you aren't confident that you wont wipe your data!)
2. After downloading and installing Sprints Update Utility, go into the binary folder (C:Program FilesSamsung ElectronicsSWUpgradeModelsBinary) and move the CL14 file to a safe place, MAKE SURE IT IS NO LONGER IN THE BINARY FOLDER.
3. Find the Kernel you want to flash and put it in the binary folder.
Note: Now you should only have one file in the binary folder (the custom kernel). Also make sure that if the file you are putting into the binary folder says 7zip or winrar, extract it!! If you dont you will get the message "Cannot access bin folder!", and you will not be able to start the download.
4. On your desktop there should be a program named SWUpgrade. Run the program and follow all of the steps through the end. After every thing finishes successfully, you will end up with STOCK CL14, this includes the CL14 SBL, along with the custom kernel you put in the binary folder (you are root).
5. Double check that everything worked by going into Settings-About Phone, under BaseBand version you should see S:M900.8.0S.CL14, under Kernel version= 2.6.27 moment(at)momentdev, under Build number= Joey's name (or any other developer who's kernel you put in the binary folder).
6. Repeat steps 1-4, putting Max's recovery in the binary folder instead of the kernel.
7. You're all set.
(If you happen to want to flash one of Zefie's kernels, repeat steps 1-4 also.)
It wasn't a great thing to get the CL14 update before, because it was hard to obtain root. But now with Sprints Update Utility, and all the new kernels, we are able to get root with the CL14 SBL easily.
If you've upgraded to official froyo you probably know that downgrading can be difficult, especially if you have an SLCD screen. If you did a branded upgrade (e.g. Vodafone) then the old methods won't work at all.Since current rooting methods won't work on froyo this can be a big problem.I've created a tool that will downgrade Froyo to stock 2.1. It requires a goldcard if your phone is branded. The download details as well as instructions can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
