Michal2078 1st March 2009, 17:48 Hello,
I just wanted to ask a question, is it possible to install Android on Nokia 5800XM like on N810?
PS. If this post is in the wrong thread, move it.
sunny_taur 5th March 2009, 20:46 :idol:hi dude,
i m from india and i m buying G1 locked from US
So, is there is any software so that we can unlock it ourselves
i have searched and found boot loader with that we can unlock G1
studio1b 5th March 2009, 21:50 well the only way to unlock the phone is woth the unlock code at this time. u would have to get it from the provider or pay some one like 30 to get it for u google g1 unlocking
Boefje 5th April 2009, 14:25 Why do you need to unlock? The G1 is Open Source and can't be locked?
Strange...
dbhatesyou 5th April 2009, 21:07 im guessing "locked" is unrooted phone.. or something they say to get stupid people to pay extra for... theres threads on here already about rooting your phone.
Lieu10ant 5th April 2009, 22:28 no, he means unlocked so he can use different carrier besides t-mobile.
i dont really know, but might try googling "turbo sim" this guy that unlocks phones uses it. i dont know what it's about. it's like hardware unlocking or something. or.... before u buy it. tell the guy who is selling it to call t-mobile and get it unlocked. tell him to say "i'm going out of country, can u unlock the phone so i can use it there?" or something along those lines.
Azn624 11th April 2009, 22:46 When I'm playing a games and I want to stop playing I usually press home,but that doesn't close out games and they run in the background, so is there anyway to close out games after you're done playing?

Do you have root? If you do get advanced task manager from market or here and it will let you kill tasks running in the backround
jsapp 13th April 2009, 09:01 Or use the back button if the game allows it to leave, or see if the game has an exit option. The home button is bad as it doesn't close any app.
7th_Sence 13th April 2009, 09:30 just long press menu button, you'll see the applications or games running, then press 'c' and select yes to kill that process. Or simply use task manager for this purpose..
And this is not the right section to ask this question bro.

dominat3 23rd April 2009, 08:26 When ever I try to dl the apps it says the program I am tryin to run is not on ur pc or is on a cd rom in which is not inserted or something like that, do you guys know anything that would help me? What program do I need to dl these apps?
blacknite 23rd April 2009, 18:51 u gotta b more clear dude.is the apps on ur pc or phone? what?sounds like your phone isnt mounted.after u plug in your usb go to notifications . press usb then mount.hers some other stuff that might b helpful
1.first off u need to find u a file mananager off the market best suited for u i use appmanager
transfer to sd card [card must b mounted if still in the phone]
use your file mngr to install app. u'll have to go to settings and change your settings to allow outside market apps
dominat3 23rd April 2009, 19:01 Ok I do have OI file manager on my phone (been had that). Now im downloading the hello IM from the "official helloim" thread and never mind its actually letting me download them now? Ok but still when I go to drag them into my phone nothing happens so idk if im supposed to make a folder specifically for these apps or if my sd card is a problem or what?
dominat3 23rd April 2009, 19:26 sorry for the double post, but I went the tiny url way. went to the link on my phone, downloaded the helloIM app, went into my OI file manager clicked on "steel:downloads" saw helloIM app, clicked on it and it says application is not availible?
blacknite 24th April 2009, 04:32 yeah u gonna need to put all your apps in a folder.pssibly i guess oi file mngr. does oi file mngr allow u to install apps? i've never tried it. try app manager , i know it does lol

it feel like y looking for some comets and replays. and no one care just hunting for apps and leave ,we need some shares in here ,not just in my thread ,in all threads .
thanks for y share.
rbgmode 22nd June 2009, 08:34 hey for a new guy you have a good reputation so don't stress it.
I been here for a while after people just took and did not thank I stopped sharing my stuff, yet if you or any others who share make a request I will always see if I can get your request filled.
Don't stress it bro I know how it is. Welcome to the corporate America/World.
The mentality of take while you can, reep the reward, without having to thank anyone.
I'm telling you it's like giving a toy to a five year old son. You give and you give and they never have toys. You stop giving toys they whine. Then they wonder why. When all it takes is to say thank you and we feel it was worth it.
At least that is my point. So for right now most people of this forum are grounded in my point of view. There are those who contribute that I will stay loyal to.
fox1234 22nd June 2009, 08:56 l'm not stress ,its all about Exchange info .if y like something y like to share it .thats what i feel .

lolmensch 11th July 2009, 13:38 its the emulator which has inbuilt gameshark. but gameboid doesnt support it till now. perhaps it'll be implemented in a later version
pmaster519 12th July 2009, 02:20 hmm so in order to use gameshark it needs to be in the app not a rom?
lolmensch 12th July 2009, 12:02 yes, you got it ^^
pmaster519 12th July 2009, 22:10 I hope game shark can be added. Or is there a way some one can make a custom one and add it? Like if you download the app then edit the app to be able to use game shark.
pmaster519 15th July 2009, 03:24 Also another question... Am I allowed to post ROMS on here?
HitmanShalva 15th July 2009, 22:19 If you root your phone, you can install different images.

DroidAppz 15th July 2009, 23:08 Currently the only way to do a carrier unlock (which I'm assuming is what you mean since you're taking it out the US and into India) is to either get someone who already has had T-Mobile for a while (I think it's 90 days, but I don't know if they enforce the limit or if there really is one at all) to request an unlock code for you for free or to pay someone online to do it. They usually cost about $20 if you buy them online.

blackvyper 6th August 2009, 12:34 When I'm playing a games and I want to stop playing I usually press home,but that doesn't close out games and they run in the background, so is there anyway to close out games after you're done playing?
You can use a Task Manager app like Taskiller or Advanced Task Manager.. you can end all programs or exclude apps that you want to keep open all the time.
Nenco 6th August 2009, 15:43 Anyway no need to kill application, system will kill unused application for you when more memory is needed
JonniBravo 6th August 2009, 15:56 Recently I have been having problems with my G1, firstly I constantly recieve force close message in the Market when searching for anything. On occasions this happens every 2 searches I do.
Also every so often the phone refuses to boot up sticking on the opening android screen, the animation stops for a second after 30 secs or so then the screen goes blank and the android boot screen returns. I find that I am havin to hard reset every couple of weeks.
Anyone have any ideas as to what is happening here.
blacknite 6th August 2009, 18:33 sounds like u might have alot of stuff running or starting up altogether.or might just b one funky app fng things up. try taskiller or task manager to see what is running on ur phone. autostart might help too. give market time to load up i guess
stmajick812 7th August 2009, 04:19 that happens 2 me2, is ur g1 rooted cuz since my fone been rooted its been acting up and i keep having to wipe my fone out and ima running jf1.5.1

stmajick812 8th August 2009, 02:04 My phone is not rooted though i was considering it, it's uk build crc1.
the i think its cuz u have a bug on ur fone by 1 of the apps. reading this msg yesterday i decided 2 switch my rom cuz i was gettning sick and tired of my fone acting up and i switched over to the cyanogenmod. so far its been working well for me and its much better than the jf
rbgmode 8th August 2009, 19:04 Sounds like a bug in your build. I know I have a issue if I search market find apps then search again it says found apps yet will not display until I go back to main screen and try again. Download cyanogen builds using cyanogen updater in market or go to androidspin.com (you need root to install these builds) What I would do is backup all my apps&data first then if u have apps on ext3 wipe using lucid -c in terminal boot into recovery hopefully u have cyanogens 1.4 version for recovery then install either cyanogen 3.8.1 (stable) or the newest experimental build 3.9.7 thats what i use 3.9.7 cool features

Edit: before u install new rom i recomend wipe phone in recovery too

I have a Unlocked Vodafone branded Magic and I use CoPilot Live 8 for FULL GPS navigation because all the maps are stored on your SD card. It is the best for Android.. there is none better! I also use Cardar, GPS Tracker & Google Maps. You can download all of these from the Android Market.

Step 2 now search between all those icons the icon named Market (maybe handy to know the icons are ranged in alphabetical order)
Step 3 After finding tap the Market icon with 1 finger and wait for it to open.

Have you tried taskiller?
bababango 21st August 2009, 20:20 is there any way to install apps from android market direclty on SD card, ... how to do that because its killing internal memory of phone...... while there is a lot of memory present at SD ..... wiht no use.....
DaDemon 21st August 2009, 21:31 Have you seen the Apps2SD app?
Or maybe taken a peek at XDA-Devs?
You'll find a lot of information on the forums at XDA regarding Apps to your SD card, new themes to replace the bland stock one, and a lot of small little features you probably won't even use. It's a good forum but easy to get lost.
Quick Google search XDA, find your phone and look at how to do it man, hit me up if you have any issues.
earp_ 22nd August 2009, 13:39 Hi guys,
I have a problem with CoPilot, I can't install it. NDrive works good though.
So I am trying to install it through USB connection but I have some problems.
First I have win 7RC with eclipse SDK for android.
Under device manager tab I can see the my USB connection to the device and it is called "USB Mass Storage Device" if I try to install "android USB windows" drivers, it says drivers up to date and it won't let me install it.
I belive I installed the correct driver when I installed Eclipse. However if I run cmd as Admin and then i write "adb devices" I can't see any device on my list.
And if I try to install an app it says "error device not found"
the SD is mounted.
Any idea?
Thanks!
earp_ 22nd August 2009, 23:00 ok I found everything here.

gedas5 22nd August 2009, 23:51 how did you manage to install android_usb.inf modded drivers on Windows7? i can't do it as it doesn't support installation of .inf files as Windows XP used to do it. Even if you uninstall Android drivers than W7 installs and then connect device again the W7 automatically install it's own drivers staight away and it's impossible to stop it. If anyone could suggest how to install android_usb.inf driver on Windows7 would be more than thankful as it's the only thing that prohibits me from installing .apk files from my PC to phone.
thanx
earp_ 23rd August 2009, 02:01 I know what you mean...I couldn't figure it out for a bit...however I uninstalled the driver for my usb where it says USB Mass Storage Device. Usually everytime I plug the android in, win 7 recognizes the device and automatic install its driver.
And until here it happens to you as well.
Now the important part.
Put your device into Debuggin Mode "Application->development->debugging mode" and when you plug in the device, this time it still recognizes the same USB port but not the drivers for Android Device icon which appears in Device Manager if Debugging Mode is on.
At this point you right click with your mouse on android device icon in Device Manager and you choose the right driver!
I hope it will work for you as well!

I am using to make calls the default app from my Magic phone. With that i use NOT CALL LOG PREFS.
That kills me, because the app is crap.
The app updats the calls log very hard, often i touch the wrong person in the list.
I tryed CONTACT BLAST 1.8 but it force closed every time.
Do you have some good proposal?

I have htc magic phone and i have a few questions about a few apps.
By default the android has the "messaging" app which is very lame, so i installed hand cent sms app.
can i unonstall the default messaging app?
Can i do the same thing with email default app?
Thanks
RX60 23rd September 2009, 14:57 i believe you can using adb not so sure about the email though. I'd do a backup just in case adb pull /system/sd/app app

blackvyper 23rd September 2009, 20:15 m8, i don't understant what you are saying.

The messaging along with other progrmas that came with your phone is built into your ROM.. in other words you cannot delete or uninstall it without rooting. Just use handcent.. it's updated regularly and I use it to :)
Jarrive 23rd September 2009, 20:17 the problem is that both are running in the same time. that's silly and useless.
another question. i have a magic blocked on vodafone. one update appeared on htc website, but not for me. can i do something to use it?

It does have bluetooth but the clarity is reduced marginally in that..
Although I haven't tried my phone in particular but bluetooth in general just doesn't feel good in the bass department...
But the drivers you mentioned is there any way around that?
If I can connect a usb,an iphone and watch movies and everything on them,i would love to connect my galaxy too..
And is this possible in general with the galaxy or is it a one off issue with my particular car audio/galaxy setup?

Игор 19th January 2011, 16:13 By OC you mean overclocking?
If so, you can't. Your best bet is to root it and look for a custom rom, since you need a kernel supporting overclocking.

Got mixed results. Voice call to PC does work, I tried a video call with a nexus s ->the video kind of worked but without sound (the 3G connection on the other side was bad though)
