Motorola Droid :: Reinstalling From Sholes
Feb 14, 2010
Is there a way to select an individual option from the sholes updater when selecting which music program you want? For instance I installed one option but want another. Is that possible or do I have to undo / redo the root?

Okay, I have been running sholes for a few days now and I am really digging it. I have also just OCd to 800 mhz (which I am currently happy with). I keep hearing about Pete's Bugless Beast. My question is, which of the two is better? I am not looking for opinions but more or less facts as to why someone would flash BB over Sholes or vise versa. Is there performance differnces, visual differences, etc.?

I just rooted yesterday and when I went to bed last night, I put my Droid in my multimedia and noticed that the temperature is displayed in Celcius, and I can't get it to change to Fahrenheit. I went to settings and Celcius isn't set, does anyone else have this problem?

I'm usings SM Updater, it's asking me if I want to wipe /data and says to do so if I'm running 2.1. I don't know what Sholes 2.0.3 is based off or if I should do this b/c the rom is different than stock?

First off, let me just say that I recently switched over to the Droid from my Palm Pre on Sprint, which was a huge letdown for me. I'm loving my Droid so far and I just rooted it today with Sholes 1.2 ROM. I'm not that impatient to install a 2.1 ROM on my phone, as I already like 2.0.1 enough to keep it stock.I was curious about installing some of the 2.1 apps on it, which is why I ended up installing Sholes 1.2. However, I've noticed that it seems to take quite a bit of my memory compared to stock 2.0.1. In fact, it seems to run slower in general than the stock 2.0.1. Is there any way to improve this, or should I just wait for the 2.1 OTA?

I wasn't having much luck with the video recording, but saw a thread on how to improve the quality with a few modifications. Thread here: http://androidforums.com/motorola-droid/39706-higher-quality-video-recording.html. It suggested that I change the bps from 300,000 to 800,000. I couldn't really figure out how to do it, so I never did. I eventually installed the Sholes ROM from the Market and noticed an instant improvement in video quality. I checked my Astro file, (in the system/build file as in the link posted above), and noticed that it is now set to 900,000 bps, rather than 300,000 obviously this was changed automatically by the Sholes ROM. Just another confirmation that the Sholes was a great decision, for me at least. Here's a couple of videos to show the difference. This is a breakfast/storage room and my dog, Riley, who never knows exactly how to behave in front of the camera.

Just used the new SMUpdater to root my Droid, but don't like the revert back to the 2.0 unlock screen (half moon swipe). Anyone know if there is a way to change it back to the 2.0.1 left-to-right unlock screen?

I got sholes from the market last night and i absolutely LOVE it. I just have a few questions about my OC profile and a temp monitor
Right now my profile is set to
Charging:
Max 1
min 250
Sleep/Standby:
Max 550
Min 125
Power <100%
Max 800
Min 250
Failsafe
Max 550
Min 125
Do those look ok? Also what program works with Sholes to monitor battery and CPU temps?

I uninstalled my calender thinking Titanium Backup could restore, guess it only did the data.

I know this goes against the majority here, but the ROM I'm using doesn't include the Amazon MP3 app and I'd really like to have it. Any way for me to get it? I'm using Liquid Frozen Yogurt v1.7.1, so including it in the ROM wasn't an option during the installation process.

I have found that the AD Community ROM acts as if it is a brand new phone, never activated, and runs you through the set up of all your settings - and then proceeds to DL all your apps that you had installed previously.I posted a comment about it at AllDroid - View topic - [Rom] AllDroid Community Beta 0.3 release and got a reply that when someone went back to un-rooted and what not, the OEM ROM did the same thing.So, this led me to believe that there is some particular setting that allows for this to occur, where the ROM being installed is installed in a certain state so as to make the phone think it has never been activated before.This being said, I wondered if other ROMs could be tricked into thinking the same thing - and I hit upon an idea- what if, after installing a new ROM, you go into settings and do the factory reset that is there? Since I don't have anything installed except for this custom ROM and SPRecovery and such, I am not really gonna lose anything by doing this, so why no give it a whirl

I installed the NexTheme R2, and then restored all my apps with MyBackup Pro. My apps are on my phone but if I go to the android market place it's as if they are not installed. If I proceed to install the app it informs me that it is going to overwrite the current app. Is there a way to register installed apps without reinstalling each app? I am afraid that I will not receive updates due to the phone thinking the apps are not installed.

Does anyone know how to delete all phone data from google so that when i perform a factory reset that my settings and applications DO NOT get reinstalled? Normally the reason to do a factory reset is to start fresh.

I have a rooted DroidX and made the mistake of removing a few system apps, including Messaging.apk. Now I open the text message application and it closes right away. I tried copying package dumps (from another thread somewhere) to /system/apps/ and installing them, but I get a "Application not Installed" message. How can I get the phone to reinstall these applications?

Is this even possible on non rooted phones? i know on rooted phones you can go in and edit the png files in the .apk meaning you can change the icons for the apps and widgets etc. this caught my interest, being something that i could do as possibly an introduction into the developer side of the eris. just wanted to see if it would be possible to reinstall an edited apk file onto a non rooted phone

I'm having trouble installing footprints to be specific. I wanted to use it again and when I moved it from my SD card back to the system app folder it won't install. I'm probably not doing something right. But I don't know what it is. I've moved both the app and widget .apk and .odex files but they won't install. I rooted after 2.2 and they are the 1.10 versions.

I recently uninstalled my Play Store due to most applications not showing and whenever i search for them it says device is not compatible.So I uninstalled using sd maid since it is a system app and my fone is rooted.
I tried to install a downloadable apk file of play store but to no luck, it always force closes at app launch.Every version of play store i installed are all the same, force closes at application launch.
I also found out that vending.apk or skyphone.apk (whatever you call that) together with its. .odex counterpart is missing.

I wounder if anyone else has had this problem. I had a blown pixel on my Desire so i got a new one form T-Mobile. I had backed up my contacts on the SD card and when I reinstalled them to the phone all the numbers have gone into a US style format, for example the number 01345 456732 has become 013-454-56732. These are number copied to the phone and not form the sim.Has this happended to anyone else? I sthere a way of sorting this out without redoing each one?

I decided to wipe the phone couple days after 2.2 update. I was experiencing severe lag time while typing. Also zooming (double-tap) in browser wouldn't work. Anyway, I cant get appbrain to sync. I installed appbrain on phone and have signed in with same account but none of my apps show up just the pre-installed ones on the phone. When I look on web all my apps still show up in My Apps.

I rooted my phone, and deleted the "Camera 1.0" app, thinking that "Camera 1.6" is the latest version of the application. When I deleted "Camera 1.0", video cam functionality ceased (even with third party apps) and basic UI (ie. the side camera button doesn't work anymore) is not fully functional.
Is there a Camera App that can be retrieved anywhere so I may re-install it? Otherwise, Is there anything that can be done to restore everything back to normal? (fyi, I already tried reseting the phone to no success).

I had used a root toolkit to root my kyocera rise as rooting by hand has become a pain. Anyways, I had run into an issues where my phone would not run properly (possibly due to malware or the likes) and as such I reset it back to factory data. For months after I had assumed that I did not have root anymore because I had lost the supersu app (stupid me forgot to check root). Recently I realized that in one of my apps that could use root, it was using root and I did not even know it.
Seeing that this would cause some security issues, I quickly installed super su and updated the binaries. From then on, whenever an app tried to request root permission, it would then freeze. I then uninstalled super su and did the unroot setting from software and then planned to reinstall it. When I reinstalled supersu, It complained that it could not install binaries and this was bad.
Anyways, the kyocera rise has a locked bootloader that prevents me from completely flashing over a new copy of the os, which sucks, and now I feel like I am stuck with an unrootable device because I can't seem to reinstall the binaries to allow super su or any other superuser program to work properly. FYI, this is just stock android, nothing fancy about it.

I have a Chinese unbranded Android Mobile which comes with Android 4.0.4. But there are several issues with this device. Apps are crashing every now and then. Also if there is a call that I can not answer (goes to Missed call list) thereafter my contact crashes. I have to clear all the contact storage and then even can open the dial pad. Tried to factory reset with no luck.
I want to reinstall the firmware completely. I was looking for ways to do so, mostly I came across posts which talks about firmware release for branded phones. This is not branded and I have searched net, found nothing that talks about such phone. The About Phone shows Model no UC-W7L.
how can I completely reinstall android 4.0.4 on this device?

i was wondering if there was a way to re-install every stock application back onto the phone (bloatware and all.) I tried to upgrade to 6.11.748 but 25% through the installation I got the dreaded exclamation point and the phones says installation failed. I believe the problem is due to important missing system apps like Google Books, Guided Tours, etc. I have the full RAZR system dump files on my PC, is there a way to replace all current apps with the ones from the downloaded dump files? Is there a way to find out what system applications are missing and replace only those? I also have a Titanium Backup of my old files, although I am having issues installing system apps back onto the RAZR. Is there a way to force install the 6.11.748 update? I don't care about losing my root access, I am more concerned about the 3G/4G compatibility and camera bug fixes.. Factory resetting and trying the update does not work, unrooting and trying the update does not work, manually installing missing .apk's does not work.
