[Q] build.prop & default.prop x10i

Hi Guys,
I've been a complete doofus, and despite 2 hours of looking at threads, I can't see an answer - so apologies if I've missed it, or I'm being stupid.
At various times, I've installed 2.1 from Nordic, Multitouch from Japan, and accidentally changed my fingerprint to a Galaxy S.
Unfortunately, this has screwed things up to the point that changing the 8 digit code just gets corrected at next reboot. I was alerted to this because there are literally thousands of apps missing from my market.
Does anyone have the original .prop files from an Orange UK 2.1 ROM that I can swap in? I'm assuming it's this simple, but please correct me if I am wrong. I'd prefer not to reflash, but I do have xrecovery installed if push comes to shove.
Thanks for all your continuing hard work guys.

reflash your phone, then you'll get your default build.prop

Unfortunately, neither SEUS or PC Companion recognise the phone as an x10 any more

then use global nordic flasher.. to flash to 2.1 nordic firmware.

OK - I've reflashed to Global Generic, re-rooted. The same apps are still missing from the market - the new Amazon UK one being the benchmark, but there are also 2700 search results for "video" instead of 3500 odd.
Any idea what I am missing?

I'm glad you solved your problem

Thanks so much for all your help, but the original problem remains. Thousands of missing apps from the market. :'(

now you have done a nordic flash wont seus allow you to reflash to default restore?

That's the thing - I have. But I'm not being offered the new-new firmware and the market is still not offering me key programs.
I can't work out how that can be after 2 clean flashes!
I've not restored any system data from Titanium - just game progress. The rest of the apps have been restored from scratch.
It's just.... weird!

hey there man, from what i can gather you have been playing around in the build.prop file (as have i many times!) and changed the code to another region and then flashed?
what i would look at doing would be to use jerpelea's flash from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6514692&postcount=2 and use one of the global roms
OR
use one of the operator original firmwares from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9800939&postcount=1 and choose one of the UK firmwares (even tho your exact rom is not there, at least the UK market should be the same.
good luck dude!

[Q] Titanium Backup Help

Please forgive me if xda is not the correct place to post this question, but I am desperately trying to figure out an issue I am having with Ti Backup Pro. I have also posted this on android forums but not having much luck getting a response there...
Anyways, here is my problem.
I've had the Mesmerize for about two weeks now and gotten to the point where I need to do backups...I have rooted the phone and installed TiBU PRO but am now running into issues.
I can backup/restore my user apps without a problem but anytime I try to backup system data the app just hangs...doesnt force close, or progress.
Has anyone else seen this or know of a fix?
Here is what I have done so far.
Uninstalled/Reinstalled TiBU
Installed BusyBox from within app
Changed App Processing Mode to AUTO Indirect.
I appreciate any help!

Not sure how to fix but it's usually not a good idea to restore system data anyway.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

I've seen a lot of people say the same thing...but the greater problem for me is that I can't run the user app and system data batch job so I cant backup things like my SMS without manually deselecting the "red" text items..I think that makes automated backups nearly impossible especially as I add new apps/data.
Am I wrong?

diff busybox
I,m not sure if this will help but u might try going to the fasinate dev forum and getting adrynalines busybox 1.19 i think that or 1.18 is in most of the roms that r being released. ive never had the same problem so im not 100% this will do anything. also ur sig says stock rom so u might ask one of the devs if that rom isnt deoxed then i dont think it will let you do anything with the system apps. if im wrong somebody plz correct me and like i say u should pm one of the guys that r listed as ops on the Rom releases.
i hope this helps and good luck

What ROM are you running? I've had this problem with Heinz 57. It actually does back up and restore, although it doesn't "end" the action in the app and it looks like its still going even though its done.

titanium stalls
Finally! Someone with the same problem I've been having.
I run CM7.
I started having this issue with 7.0.2-Supersonic (I have an HTC EVO).
I started installing the CM7 nightly updates thinking that maybe it is the ROM and that it would get corrected.
But, no luck. The issue only is happening in Titanium when I try to restore a single app or a batch of apps.
I have even tried deleting all backups, wiping the phone, creating new backups, verifying backups... and still get the issue where it just hangs...

Have any of you tried contacting the developer of the app?

I am having the same issue with my Mesmerize. Titanium backup was working fine until the program had an update a couple of weeks ago. I notified the vendor and they had me try a couple of things but it didn't fix it. I sent them a logcat file about a week ago but I haven't heard back from them since.

duh. damn, i feel like an idiot. SO, turns out TB has a nice lil wiki. ... and in reading it, they suggest hitting the "problems?" button in TB.
Well, I updated my superuser and busybox and BOOM! - TB with now working just the way it should.
So, hit the "problems?" button and follow the guides!

I am running the Stock ROM right now. Still researching which custom ROM to use...
I have contacted the dev but not heard anything back yet, and I did try the problems button but that didn't help either.
I got so frustrated that I did a complete wipe of the phone and reinstalled TiBU but still haven't had any luck...
Well at least I can get some use out of my $$ with the app freeze functionality.

Hi everyone,
Very sorry for the delay. Now we'll start to work on this issue. We're in touch with one user who's having this problem already, but in case one of you wants to help or try a test version, please e-mail us directly at: titanium.android <<at>> gmail.com
Thanks a lot ! And don't worry, this annoying bug will be squashed
Edit: I forgot to mention that (I think) you can temporarily workaround the issue by un-checking the "System apps (apk)" checkbox in the Titanium Backup preferences. Let us know whether it helps...

Thanks! I look forward to seeing the fix.
Just as an FYI... I did try to uncheck the System App.apk and rerun a backup, unfortunately I got the same results

Thank you !

Whoo Hoo!!
Installed the test version and was able to perform a full backup. I was also able to do a restore and verify the backup.
Thanks so much!!!

That is awesome! Which Samsung model do you have?

I have the Samsung Mesmerize from US Cellular running Stock Froyo.
Let me know if you need more information.
Thanks again! I can't say I expected such a quick response...certainly impressed me and I will be posting a review on the marketplace!!

[Q] Adobe Flash Broken Juicy ROM

Hello Devs
I recently flashed Juicy47's Juicy ROM for the Inspire 4G, if your reading this man first of all big thanks to you for taking time and helping out the community with that awesome ROM. (I wanted to say thanks in the thread but my post count is too low)
I just have one small problem with it, Adobe Flash is not working for me. Tried flashing the ROM multiple times and wiped cache and dalvik cache as well but no joy. It is shown as installed under "All Programs" tab but even under market place I cant uninstall or install it again.
Further, I tried installing the .apk file and it does work for some time but when I restart the phone it magically vanishes again. Weird.
Thanks

UPDATE: Re-flashed the ROM and still have the same problem, I even extracted Flash from the zip and installed it manually but when the phone is rebooted it uninstalls itself.

Adobe Flash works perfectly well for me on that ROM. I assume you are using his latest 2.52 version. How are you determining it is uninstalled? If you search for it in the market does it not say installed? Or is it just not working for you on some sites? This question really needs asked in juicy's thread. I will copy it over and link it for you.
Also what ROM are you coming from? You may need to do a full wipe.

Thanks for the shout out Agoattamer, flash shows that it is installed in both the market and under the applications tab, but I can’t uninstall it or modify it. Trying to play any flash content gives me the blue lego cube with a question mark on it Apple style. I’m coming from the stock AT&T ROM that ships with the Inspire originally. I actually fixed this problem a while ago with the help of a friend. For anyone else that has this problem here is what we did:
- Install Titanium Backup
- Force uninstall Adobe Flash 10.3
- Restart and reinstall it again from the market
This actually helped and now even when I restart the phone Adobe Flash remains installed and works through the browser. While I was using Titanium Backup I also went ahead and uninstalled Adobe Reader and Twitter. This is why I love using Android, so many talented developers and community members on board.
EDIT: Just wanted to add that the stock radio works great with this ROM and I'm getting Good/Excellent reception in Houston which is pretty rare for AT&T down here.

Funny thing today. I went to test out adobe flash. So I went to the desktop version of youtube.com. And guess what all I got? Yep that blue box with the ?? marks. So I immediately uninstalled with titanium and then went back to the market and reinstalled. Works fine now. Came back here to report to you and I see that is exactly what you have done too. Good to go.

[Q] Stock Camera not working in Sensation

Hi, i've bought an unlocked T-Mobile HTC Sensation and was running Android Revolution HD for Sensation gingerbread. my Camera app has suddenly stopped working... I've tried updating to latest ICS from Android Revolution HD 6.5.1 but still the camera is not working. when i start the app... the screen flashes and then again I'm back on the home screen. Strangely, when using application "mirror" it starts the front camera... and that is working fine... and i've tried multiple apps from market for back camera...but its not working using any of them... can you please help me out with this... any help in this would be deeply appreciated.
Thanks
Dipil Jain

Got exactly the same thing happening with me guys...any ideas?
Have updated to the latest firmware etc and wiped everything several times and tried installing it with different options but still cannot get the camera to work

this is weird did you tried other camera apps?
if its still not working then
do a superwipe and flash rom again and see(this method erases data ..so backp them before hand)

Similar problem, if i click the camera or camcorder icon the screen goes black, it either stays black until i take the battery out or it crashes and restarts?! Weird, cant use it to take pics in any other apps either. front camera is fine on skype though...!? everything is uptodate nothing was updated recently?! Anyone
(Im on stock)

This happened to me once when i was stock. I would do a battery pull and it would work again..but finally did a hard restore through recovery and cleared all the caches and that worked. Now im rooted and on energy GB rom and I have not had that problem anymore.
Just flashing a new rom did not help. I actually had to do a factory reset on the ROM as well..in the Setting/storage.

Never ran into this problem

Have u tried maybe a different rom??
sent from thy phone

I would suggest clearing the app data.

Have you news. I have the same problem and have yet to find any solution. If you have one I'd be grateful for it.
LuckyD

Go to Task Manager>>Advanced>>All apps>>Find the Camera app and select it>>Force Close if it is running & then Clear Data.
This should fix it.
If not, get this app. Go to primary and secondary camera, & check if they both work.
If it works, then there's a problem with the stock app.
If not, there is either a problem with the camera or with camera access.
I would suggest reflashing your current ROM, since this seems to solve issues, many a time.

Try installing another pyramid
have you tried to download a special or customized pyramid from the sensation android development department and then tried out your 4g??? a customized pyramid + tweaks will allow the htc camera to work because the htc family usually creates htc's like as if they were real babies.. the htc's adapt to you and then little by little all the problems like "over-heating reset, camera faults and random keyboard touches" are common problems with the htc... installing a different pyramid or returning it for another new one will usually fix this..

As far as I can tell, your camera is not being detected.
I would recommend that you do this:
1>NANDROID backup
2>SuperWipe (it can be found in this post at the very end)
3>Re-install ROM (Remember to check MD5 before installing)
4>Check if the Camera works.
If not, then Super Wipe and restore your previous backup.
If it works, get back to me. (PM me if I don't reply)
If you have further questions, feel free to ask.

Superman ROM random freeze reboot

Hey guys, I just wanted to post a hint for all the people having issues with the latest superman ROM but it seems I can only post here with my new account.
So the trick is that I simply went back to recovery and wiped dalvik and cache (nothing else) and it seems to be behaving a little better now.. Quite a few hours with no freeze.
I'm also using the new 1.4 kernel as opposed to the one offered with the ROM (1.3.1).
Hope that it helps and feel free to merge this message in the superman ROM thread if you can.

No problems at all with superman rom, works smooth.
Only Titanium Backup would not restore any backups unless the app was installed.

I never said differently.. but if you look in the ROM thread, you'll find that people is having reboot issues with kernel 1.3.1 and system freeze issues with kernel 1.4

Not sure what you did there but I was able to restore apps that weren't installed and Titanium did the usual Market restore by itself, as usual.

I'm aware that there are users having trouble with Superman Rom. I did a complete fresh install for this, like mentioned in the "how to install" and not experiencing any (reboot) issues. Having the Superman kernel running and put all options to "on". Basically I confirm your hint
For Titanium Backup I made a full backup of all rom and of all user apps with data (Stock + CF-Auto-Root). Titanium seemed to hang at the moment of restoring any app. I redid the ROM install with an older version of superuser and it didn't help. All other suggestions in the Superman thread were tried, no result .
When I installed the app from the market and than restored it from Titanium it succeeded
As an alternative I had a full TWRP backup and restoring the data partition gave me all my user apps including data

I am not experiencing any of those issues.
What i did was a full wipe as suggested. (Everything except the SD Card)
I believe this is the best way to go because it sets permissions right.
I took the superkernel also no issues there.
Except i didn't take exposed because of the pre warning that systems might get slow.
I know this is not a real awnser to your question but ruling stuf out is also a possible fix.
Good luck.

I had Superman Rom too, but never used the kernel, always used Voltaqe.
Now I use Kingrom v8 and Voltaqe is down.
Also, now Im talking about it, if somebody still has the Voltaqe 1.4 zip, could somebody please upload it and send me a link?
