Hi guys thought maybe some of you were looking for an easy way to get back specific stock apps. I wanted to finish my trial on T-Mobile TV and I didn't find another way to do it this easy with my Deodexe 2.2 Rom.
THis was for the Vibrant originally, I only restored my TmoTV so if anything else doesn't work I don't know. But I would assume it's likely the same thing.

Hey guys,
Great forums here, lots of awesome stuff going on and the development community is kicking!
I recently got rid of my iPhone (couldn't stand Job's arrogance anymore) and decided to go with the cost effective route of MetroPCS. When I found Android phones could be flashed to work with it, I was quite excited. I found a phone and someone to do the flashing on Craigslist (actually a local phone shop that does it).
He flashed my phone and loaded Evil Eris onto it. I wasn't under the impression that if he put this rom on, I was going to have issues, like no voicemail notification or softkey leds. Going into this, I was pretty unaware of all the different rom choices, and the effects they have on the phone, and I still kind of am. So I have a few questions, because I've been reading about Ivans and kind of want to try it out, but want to make sure I've covered all my bases.
1. I am still unaware of the exclusivity or co-dependence that "flashing" a phone and changing a rom have with one another. He flashed my phone to work with Metro, and upload the Evil Eris rom. Main question is - if I wipe and load Ivans, do I lose the ability to use Metro? Or is it simply an issue of loading up my Metro APN (i think thats right) settings once I've loaded the new rom?
2. Nandroid backup - I made one the other day. If I go in, try another rom, and screw something up, I am under the impression that I could restore that backup and my phone be working like I never left it, including MetroPCS settings, correct?
3. Can anyone suggest a good program to backup and restore carrier specific settings, so that if I load a new rom I can quickly port settings over? Does something like this exist?
4. Finally, if all of this has been answered somewhere where I didn't find, feel free to send me to those links!
Thanks in advance, everyone! Looking forward to getting to know my new phone better!
anyone able to help me out? or point me in the right direction?
I also want to make sure I posted this in the right place, not sure if it needs to be in the Eris specific forum.
I really hope you've found help already. But if not, I THINK the app called "APN Backup & Restore" is the app you're looking for.
Hey all.. Bought a Captivate while I was home for R&R ..got to play around with it while i was home to make sure I wanted a Android over the iPhone 4 as I was a previous iPhone 3G user.. well needless to say very happy with my choice.
I came back to the sandbox and using it as a mp3 player over my ipod and for the games etc as I can use it in flight mode with wifi ... i was reading up on how to root and flash etc and took the plunge.. i rooted and followed the guides to load the new Cognition 3.04 as that one looked great and supposed great for new users and what not... i had a couple issues after the flash i noticed but corrected.. not sure if it is common, but i did the backup with Titanium and copied to computer etc like instructed.. after i did the flash, i did the "restore missing apps + data" like it said as apparently the install all or something like that could cause issues.. well my contacts, sms, wifi data etc was missing.. i had a hard time finding out how to restore but I finally got it.. so that isnt much of an issue, just wondered if that is common??
The main concerns I have was that I am using the AT&T model Captivate and when I return home in a few weeks, I wanted to make sure that I would not have an issue using it on the AT&T network (like get issue with roaming or anything like that ) since it is now using the Rogers 2.2... Am I ok with this? Since I cant use the phone portion, i am not 100% sure that everything is working. It works great now with wifi and cant find any other issues so far.. so hoping I am good.
Also, with the new 3.04 i noticed it said the put the stock lock screen.. i kinda was liking the "swipe" unlock that my stock had that the original 3.0 had but wondered why they went back to the original bar one.. and is there a way to change that ?? or would it require me going to one of the older versions (which ever had it the .0 .1,2,or 3 etc)... any know? just a curious..nothing wrong with the stock, just like i said, kinda liked the swipe any direction one..
i am still researching around and looking up apps/themes, etc as I said I am new.. but one last question would be any suggested apps to add other than what comes with the stock cog 3.04?? i added a firewall type program ad my games etc.. but any other apps that peeps would consider "necessary" that cognition didn't load? i know this will all probably personal preference, but suggestions are always nice
Sorry for the long rant.. i just wanted to make sure that i was sent for when i re-deploy... Thanks all

Has anyone been able to get the Netflix app to work on their GS4G? I installed it but it says my device is not supported. The GS4G is not officially supported yet, but was curious if any developers were trying to get it to work? I can get to the login screen, but when I hit login it just shuts down. I have been waiting forever for this app!
I heard that it only worked on a certain type of processor or something? I also tried intalling it, but as soon as I try and login, it just closes the app instantly. I heard other people get it working on galaxy S models though. Some with and without custom firmware.
It says right in the app description its only for 4 different htc phones and the nexus s. It's been heavily discussed that changing the build.prop wont do a thing. It is a rom problem. Not an identifying problem.
I have the g2 which is a supported model, even then since i'm not running the stock rom it wont work.
i've been following this closely, and from what i can gather, only galaxy S variants running 2.3 have been able to get the netflix app to work.
Although this is the right place to discuss, there has been talk about it in here

I wish people would read and post things in the correct place. Not directed at you.
i installed a new rom on the mytouch 4g with sense 3.0 (god i wish we can customize our phones grrr) and netflix works flawlessly. its all about the rom. so once we get some custom roms ..tick tock...we can use it too! come on dev's no rush, but i'm getting antsy in my pantsy to flash some roms since i came from the hd2 to this phone. i have to feed my flashing addiction on my gf's mt4g which doesn't go over so well most of the time lol.
Hi there, I searched the forum for this and couldn't seem to find anything on it, so here goes;
I have a Droid Bionic on Verizon. I used Pete's one click root app and it worked great. I then loaded the Liberty ROM as it was touted to have the best battery life. I love everything about the ROM EXCEPT that there seems to be no visual voice mail with it. I don't want/need some fancy overly complicated vvm app like all the ones I found in the marketplace, so I was just wondering how/if I can get this resolved.
I tried downloading the Verizon VVM APK (I just Google searched for it) but then when I opened it, it popped up a message saying that my phone already had VVM on it and to use that one. I'm stuck.
I also just received a new update to my phone OTA, called 5.5.886.XT875. I'm on Android Version 2.3.4, if any of that matters.
This weekend I tried loading the UNLEASHED rom and the BLURRED rom this weekend, but one didn't have a camera app (BLURRED) and the UNLEASHED (which I'm using atm) is just slow and glitchy and I don't like it. I really wanna go back to Liberty but must have vvm for my line of work.
So, anyone have any thoughts on this? Is there a way to contact a rom developer directly that I'm missing somewhere or something like that? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me, and sorry if this should be in the BIONIC forum.
Nothing? No one?
Wondering if someone wanted to help me out by posting an easy way to root the phone, and maybe get off this terrible 2.2 OS, best rom around? I like AOSP if thats available. maybe cm9/10?
Any other sugjestions of stuff I should do with it.
Also, can this phone be unlocked free? It's for tmobile and im AT&T, i think i found a thread somewhere on google but I lost it.
Thanks guys!
