HTC Droid :: Upgraded From BB Pearl To Eris
Jan 11, 2010
Just got myself a new toy! This thing is awesome. So far I haven't found any major dislikes. I do have a couple questions though. 1. Is a app killer necessary or can I just do a phone reboot via the power menu 2. How often is it necessary to run a allkiller/system reboot? 3. Is there any way to stop sending extra emails into my Thunderbird email that is linked to my gmail account?. Is there a certain memory level I should try and maintain? I am at 121mb right now with about 12 apps. I know this ain't a BB so just curious.5. This phone rocks!

Reasoning behind March 31st coming and going and nothing OTA? Looks like we've been bumped from Eclair to FroYo and this is the projected version. www.stevebirstok.com/android/froyoleak.zip Root files are included as well.

Anyone know how to add them back on? Also, my wifi and bluetooth widget are gone and I can't figure out how to get them back? And the favorite screen? Anyone know how to add that back for one touch dialing?

I was trying to root my refurb 1.5 that I just got yesterday. And thinking that I was putting the root file on my phone, the one that I downloaded from the instructions and placed it on my sd card, I did the volume down+power button to get to hboot screen. It said upgrade and I pressed yes, not realizing that it was the 2.1 upgrade it wanted me to do and not root. Now I'm on 2.1, which I did not want.

Ever since upgrading to 2.1v2, I get this message probably every hour. The process com.htc.bg has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Sometimes it comes up on its own, sometimes when I am opening applications, etc. Anyone else get this with the 2.1v2 leak?

I'm currently owning a Malaysia production smartphone called ninetology Pearl mini i5350. This device is powered by android v2.3.5, kernel 2.6.38.6-perf, hardware version HW4000-E4B-V1.2. I had tried numerous ways to root my phone but unfortunately all failed.
So far what I had tried:
Super one click root - freeze at step#7
Poot.apk - downloaded ministro ii but nothing happened (no key for me to press update)
srs root - auto root failed
Unlock root - root failed
Universal android root - root failed
Gingerbreak - stuck at rooting process.
I had tried many others but forgotten their names. My purpose of rooting is to increase my internal memory as the phone's internal memory has only 100+mb can be used. If there's any way for me to use sd card memory as my internal memory without rooting my phone that's great enough.

I am using my brothers upgrade tomorrow to get the X. If I go to the verizon store without his phone can verizon reactivate his phone after transferring the X to my line or do they need his phone there to reactivate it?

I have a few questions about theming apps. I don't know much about Android apps, but was thinking about looking into theming some. Before I do, I want to find out if it is worthwhile or if it will be constant re-theming after every update.
When an app is themed (like the Revolution Facebook version for example) Can it be updated through the market or released APK?
If updated through the market, will it be overwritten when the app updates?
Do market updates only change the pieces needed or do they replace the whole app?
Are themed apps always complete versions or are they sometimes just the images and other parts that were themed?

No Path to Official DROIDX Update Coming from Motorola for Leaked 2.2 Users | Droid Life: A Droid Community Blog Ouch. Honestly, I saw this coming. Ah well. For those who upgraded, and still want the official release, flashing the phone back to stock is not all that hard from what I've read.

I just upgraded to Froyo and when I put the phone in the desktop dock it goes into desktop mode but the screen times out after about 30 seconds. When I had 2.1 it stayed fully lit the whole time it was on the dock.Did this happen to anyone else?This is really annoying because I use it next to my office computer to easily check my schedule, time, tasks etc.

I upgraded to cyanogen 5.0.7.5 and now the text under the icons is messed up. When I upgraded I used rom updater and did a wipe with all the data. When I reboot it shows up fine but a couple hours later they are pushed to the right and you can't read all of it.

Just a tip, you can increase the capacity on your Droid 2 if you swap the microSD cards from your Droid 1. The Droid 1 comes with a 16GB microSD card while the Droid 2 only has 8gb (because it already has another 8gb internally).Also, another nice perk to doing this is the 16gb card is a Class 4 while the 8gb is only Class 2 (Class 4 has higher transfer speeds).

After having upgraded to Smoked Glass, I had it on my phone for no longer than 30 minutes when I was hit with a new OTA notification.
I have already downloaded the file, and it is FRG01B again. The difference, though, is that, instead of patching a ton of files on the fly during the install, which is how the old one worked, this one simply formats System and then copies the entire contents of system from the .ZIP to your phone.
Be that as it may, it looks like I *somehow* got a notification for a full ROM update from VZW.
Again, like I said, it is FRG01B - but the good news is that this is a full ROM, and for those having issues with the previous one, which makes sure you have ESE81 (2.1) installed on your phone, this one does *not*.
Theoretically, I should be able to install this over any previous version of Android - which I am about to test right now.

I've successfully and smoothly been done to upgrade my Desire to the 2.2 in China. Now I am still having some confusion about what I should get from the 2.2:
1. Do I still have to press the power button to unlock the screen?
2. Why are all the downloaded apps not able to move to SD card (the Move to SD button appears shaded)
3. Is Task Killer necessary as it was before the upgrade?

Froyo RUU upgraders only, Home->Settings->Applications->Manage Applications and select the "All" tab and scroll down to find the "Field Test" app and check the version.
Mine, FYI, (upgraded to Froyo via the OTA upgrade), reports
"version 2.1->update1"

Disclaimer: I've started a new thread as I felt this was distinct enough from 2.2 feedback and different from a similar thread.I upgraded to 2.2 today, did it over my mobile H connection and it all worked fine, no problems to report.Got home and turned the wi-fi on and while it will see all the surround access points, included mine, it won't actually connect to mine. When I go right into the settings and look at what's happening it appears to be unable to get past 'Obtaining Address.Nothing has changed on my wireless setup from this morning when 2.1 connected fine.I've rebooted both the router and the phone and it still doesn't connect. All i've not done yet is a factory reset on the phone, but to be honest i'm loathe to do that unless it's completely necessary.Strangely the wi-fi hotspot feature on the phone is working fine.Can someone please help, this is a major issue for me.

So if you have ever used Cupcake and upgraded to Hero ROMs, you will obviously notice differences in performance. While you most probably won't be able to make the build go as fast as cupcake, this guide will help you squeeze all the juice you can out of the build, mostly by deleting useless resource-hogging apps. Please note I am not responsible for any damages to your device. Now lets remove some pretty useless apps. Obviously if you use any of these, do not remove them.
1) HTC Sync. If you don't use it, delete it. It is really a resource hog. Please not that before starting any of these command. Please not that you only need to type in adb remount once before you type in all these codes. Note: Please note that the * after PCSII* is in fact supposed to be there, and is not a typo!

I have an application which has notifications that disappear when the application is closed to be reinstalled or upgraded. How can I have my application either run code when it is first installed or have it detect the first time it is run?

I am new to android, but I am really excited about this phone. It's not really a deal breaker for me, I just see that the HTC Legend does have 16m colors, and it looks very crisp, it also runs the same version of android apparently as the EVO. I just want to know if this can be possibly done, I know that the EVO has a bigger screen and this might be the reason why it's only 65k, but I want a 16m color display for my EVO!

I have currently upgraded my Xperia Neo to CM9. I have been experiencing a bit lesser batter life. Also when i use CpySpy app it doesnt show the time spent by the processor in the specified frequencies. It always shows 0 for all states. that is definitely not correct. The system can't be idle when I use right? So i'm wondering is there any issue with CM9 or my phone particularly. Also i have already used CM7 and CpySpy was giving me right numbers. why my battery drains even when my phone is in idle and why there are no numbers in CpuSpy.

So I upgraded to zenexp and now I don't have visual voice mail. I do have a google voice account though, so I downloaded the program. Am I missing something or can I only use the google visual voice mail with my google #? I cannot seem to figure out how to pick up my voice mail when people call my cell phone.

I've just upgraded to 2.2 and i'm missing some apps from the market (stupidly uninstalled for space before upgrading) Can anyone else with 2.2 (official) check and tell me if you can see them in the market -Photo Studio Buddy (there should be 2 versions one lite and one paid).

So, I was running the leaked 2.1 for a while (which worked perfectly except for youtube fwiw) and finally decided last week to upgrade to the official 2.1 release. Youtube runs smoothly now and my performance seems slightly faster, but my GPS does not work at ALL.
Neither Sprint nor Google Navigation works. I tried turning off the "Use wireless networks" setting and it didn't help at all. Anybody else having this problem? Is there any way to fix this? Am I going to need to re-install my OS? Do I need a replacement phone?

I'm trying to figure out how to stop the notifications everytime an app is updated automatically. The updates are good; just don't want the notifications. It seems to be for almost all my apps that are updating.
In the Google Play Store settings, I have unchecked the Notifications checkbox, but that (surprisingly) did not do it.
