[Q] Android Install kills screen Rotation! Please Help! - General Questions and Answers

Today I installed android onto my HTC HD2 and immediately lost screen rotation. I now boot directly to android, but the screen refuses to rotate. I did some reading and then I downloaded a file bma150_usr which was said to correct this problem then attempted to overwrite that existing file on my HTC HD2 as per the instructions that were located with the download. However, I find that I can only navigate to the files, but am unallowed to delete or overwrite. The phone has Superuser app on it as part of the Android download. Anyone who can help me understand how to gain access please email me at rdriffle at hotmail dot com

Need original Opera file

Hey everyone,
I got this phone yesterday, very familiar with Windows Mobile. I'm using the latest OEM TMobile ROM and I manually uninstalled applications since they're part of the ROM they don't show in remove programs. I installed Opera Mobile 10 and it's not working the way I want, the problem is that I've deleted ONE file belonging to the old opera, the one located in Windows\Start Menu\Programs, called "Opera Browser" or something. I don't want to do a hard reset just to get one file back, especially after having tweaked the phone so much. Can someone just upload the file here so that I can move it onto my phone?
Thank you so much for all your help.

[Q] Help with "Stock Android 2.2 Keyboard"

Hello, I recently upgraded to Android 2.2 (Froyo). I was unhappy with not having the (all so accustomed to) Android keyboard and began researching alternatives. I stumbled upon this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780683
I downloaded the file (.zip file) and succesfully got it on my phone. However, I do not know how to go about using a 'root' or what a 'root' is, and I also don't know how to copy the
"/system/app/LatinIME.apk
/system/lib/libjni_latinime.so"
to the system folder.
Any helpful responses will be greatly appreciated.
U r far far away from doing this....!!!!
Rooting is firstly necessary... Its the process where u get access to ur system files by deleting some system files via softwares and/or programming skills.. It also void your manufacturer's warranty..
Do not root only for installing a keyboard..!!! Its a big thing and not for beginners..!!
Then again u have to install custom recovery which is, kind of like bios in computer!! Via custom recovery u can install zip files!!
Good day

Thanks for your replies. I don't necessarily want to void my warranty- being a construction worker and all, phones need to be able to be replaced cheaply- so is there any other possible way to get a free keyboard like the Android 2.1 one? I found a free 7.1x keyboard that was good and easy to use, but you had to pay in order to get options (such as turning off that incessant tapping sound).
Any good free keyboards anybody can point me to that are simple to install?
try this link..
scroll at the middle of the page.. u will see a download option.. download those keyboard apps.. it can also run or other devices besides htc.. download your correct resolution keyboard (download all and see which works best for you)
you will download a zip file.. install the two apk's BY BROWSING TO THAT FILE USING A FILE MANAGER AND THEN CLICKING THE FILE...
GO HERE TO DOWNLOAD
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=5475283
INSTALL THE ONE WHICH FITS YOUR RESOLUTION
TRY THE LAST ONE 1ST(LOWER RESOLUTION KEYBOARD)
AFTER U SUCCESSFULLY INSTALL THE TWO SOFTWARE GO TO settings->language & keyboard and then check mark the htc ime keybord..
then suppose u want to use it to text.. then open messaging-> new message
then press and hold the blank area where u type ur text.. select input method and click htc_ime keyboard..
also u may go to settings from the messaging and select htc_ime to use the keyboard..
GOOD DAY
Oh yeah!!
Unzip the files u download to your phone's memory card 1st!
I have the .apk files in my SD card. How do I install them?
browse to the files using a file manager.. the file manager is provided in every phone..
now go to the files.. and install them one by one.. to install select the file.. that is touch the files and then press install..
Thank you kindly. I should have mentioned I had a Galaxy S Vibrant. The one I downloaded did have a resolution too low but I guess i'll just try out a few more and go from there.
Again, thank you.

[Q] How to install usb_host_driver 2.0? Please Help?

Hi too all i am trying to root my alcatel ot 985 and i need to install some usb_host_driver, when i came in at that folder i have win64/32, later WNET/VISTA, and later IA64/AMD64 and later qcusbser.cat and qcusbser.sys have a readme too, i need to install that for continuing process of rooting, so please somehow help me guys. Thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers, Nemanja. :good:
Usually to install a driver there have to be an *.inf file in a folder.
So, maybe the file is placed somewhere in a superior folder.
Using windos 7 you just have to highlight the top folder and let Windows search the file itself.
Using XP you have to search the file yourself.
Worst case is, that there is no such file.
This means you have to download something lice a sync-software from alcatel homepage and install the whole package, because the driver is inclueded there. Just like the HTC Sync package, which contains the drivers for HTC smartphones

[Q] Transfering data to new phone

Hi Peeps,
Could anybody help me with the following please?
I am trying to transfer some app data from my old Samsung phone to my new N5. The app is Driftwood Apps Stronglog. I have contacted the developer who has sent me the info below but I cannot find the file nor folder.
>>>>
Right now I don't have a way of transferring the database. However, the database file is located in data/data/workouts/workout.db if you can get write access to that directory you could copy that file over to your new phone

Hi. I love your strong log app. I've just changed phones and would like to transfer the data from one to the other. Is this stored in a particular file please?
Titanium backup is the best way. You need to be rooted.

Directly copying just the workoutsDB.db to the appropriate place on the new phone, after Strong Log has been installed and launched once worked for me. (On a Moto Razr Maxx)
I tried it a few other ways without luck, but their dev emailed me these specific steps and it did the trick:
1. copy the original workoutsDB.db file somewhere
2. install Stong Log on the new device
3. open Strong Log (the schema for the database is created on initial opening of the app)
4. close app.
5. find the new workoutsDB.db file and delete it.
6. add the old workoutsDB.db and reopen the app.

Couple of notes:
A. On my phone the workoutsDB.db file lives in /data/data/com.driftwood.workouts/databases/. You need root to read and write to the /data directory.
B. The only file I replaced was the workoutsDB.db file. I left the workoutsDB.db-journal file, and the rest of the files that are created on first launch as they were after the first-launch.
C. I killed the Strong Log app after doing the first-launch of Strong Log and before replacing the workoutsDB.db. (May not matter but seemed safer to me.)
D. When you re-open Strong Log, it will still ask you for your birthday, but it makes sense that birthday wouldn't be part of the workoutDB. Once you get past the birthday screen, your old workouts are all there.
:good: Go get strong! (And remember how strong you used to be!)

[Q] One Plus One stock file manager problem. (NEED HELP)

I use a one plus one. I recently updated my cell phone to Cyanogen mod version 12.0-YNG1TAS2I3.
Now I transferred some files into the secure folder of the stock file manager present in the phone from another folder in the phone only. I actually transferred two folders. Now I open the secure storage with a password to see that the folder is not showing. A folder was previously present in it that still shows but the one I moved 12 hours ago is no where to be found. Please I need help with this as it had really important files. Anyone with a good solution is always welcome, thank you.
I've got the exact same problem, did you manage to find the files?
