Strange Icon Hi I have been using the superman rom for a couple of days now after too many issues with lineageOS. So far it seems great! Just one query, ever since upgrading, I have this icon on the notifications bar which I don't recognise. I've attached a pitcure as it's easier than...

Thanks so basically it will be 7.0 or 7.0.1? I've just moved from stock to lineage,but missing some of the Samsung features. Also battery life is no better with lineage, if anything it's worse...

3 quick questions Hi, sorry I feel dumb for asking these questions but I can't seem to find the answers to these seemingly obvious questions! 1) what version of nougat is this? 7.1.2 like Lineage? 2) can u use the galaxy apps including gear vr with this rom? 3) if you remove root, can you...

I have one bug now since upgrading where it doesn't remember the launcher. Every time I click home it asks me which launcher to use and won't remember the default one? I much prefer holo launcher rather than touchwiz Sent from my SM-G900FD using XDA Free mobile app

Many thanks. I took the plunge and upgraded my sm-g900fd t9 the Russian 5.0 version. So far no problems. One of the main reasons for upgrading is that battery life was v poor on kit kat for me. It's early days but Lollipop doesn't seem to have improved battery life at all.. :mad: Sent from...

Upgrade Duos to 5.0 No root and no reset Hi, I have a S5 Duos (SM-G900FD) UAE version and would like to upgrade to Lollipop. Is it possible to upgrade WITHOUT reset and WITHOUT Root? Due to the apps on my phone (I use it for work and have certificates installed etc.) I need to keep my apps...

Just installing! Just installing the update now. I have a German LG E900, running on a UK Talkmobile (MVNO of Vodafone)! No wonder I had to force update! I tried loads of things, and on the verge of giving up, when I used the UK Proxy tip, earlier in the thread. (Even though I am already in...

Hi, thanks however I have tried the force update method several times as well as ensuring all the cabs are in as per the manual update instructions including ensuring the right language packs are there but still get exactly the same error as before.. no applicable packages... guess I'll have to...

Can't get my phone to update LG Optimus E900 Hi, I am based in the UK with a European model and can't upgrade to 7.8 (LG Optimus E900) I've tried the force update method, no joy and the manual cab method but it just says can't find applicable package.... Any ideas please? Thanks

Can't get my phone to update Hi, Thanks for the tips, however I can't get my LG Optimus E900 to update. I have tried the force update method and also the manual cab method but the manual cab method backs up the phone and installs the cabs, then fails with an error saying no applicable...

Also free tethering *bump* also, a tethering application similar to MiWi in IOS that allows you to tether your phone (to share your existing data bundle) but without incurring additional charges from your network provider. I'd love to code this but wouldn't have a clue where to start! :)

One the iphone 4, tethering works in a different way so uses a different APN, therefore your mobile operator will charge you an extra £5 per month if you use tethering. If you jailbreak your phone you can use MiWi which uses the normal APN so you share your normal monthly inclusive internet...

One feature missing from Mango is Bluetooth Dial-up Networking. A lot of standard Nokia phones support it as well as most Blackberry and Sony Ericsson. Admittedly, IOS and Android don't support it. If an app or feature could be written it would be an extremely useful tool. I would use it for...

Thanks, Wifi tethering sounds promising. Particularly if you can use it in stealth to stop carriers from charging you extra for tethering. You can do this on IOS with Mi-wi or PDAnet. As for the bluetooth issue, I just hope Microsoft get their act together but it doesn't sound like it will...

I would really love to use a WP7 as my main phone. However I have 2 deal-making requirements: 1) Bluetooth DUN profile I have a Mercedes Comand Online in my car which requires Bluetooth DUN capability, From what I've seen, even the Mango update won't address this? I assume there can't be any...

Lol, I love it how most people are saying, if you want an android, go and by a HD2 or Desire / HD. Like most people have 400 GBP lying about the place! Duh, that's the reason why people are enquiring about the possibility of Android working on the HD7..... so you DON'T have to buy an Android...

I actually think it's a great question. Why would people want it? because it gives you CHOICE! It would be great if you could dual boot with Android and WM7 so you get the best of both worlds: taking advantage of Android whilst also using WM7 while it matures. I'd absolutely love to have a...

Many thanks for all your help. I followed it to the letter (using gold card method) and it worked a treat. Used Villain Rom in the end. I've flashed loads of windows mobiles and iphones before but never an android device. This was my boss's phone so was a bit nervous. It's certainly more...

Hi, I've done tons of Windows mobile upgrades in the past but despite reading through the posts on here, I'm still stuck. 1) I have a HTC Hero (UK Vodafone with the original rom) and want to upgrade to 2.1 in the quickest / smoothest way 2) I'm not bothered about keeping anything at all on the...

Cool, I'm going to upgrade tomorrow. Are there any good backup tools to backup ur emails, settings and text messages then I can restore to the new 2.1 version? Thanks

Many thanks for your response. I'm not familiar with rooting on the android, do you have any links / guides on how to upgrade? Also, what bugs come with the upgrade, anything that would make it not worthwhile? Thankss

Hi, I have done loads of windows mobile rom upgrades in the past, however I would like to upgrade a colleague's HTC Hero rom to Andriod version 2.1 (one of the first Heros and is on Vodafone). 1) Do you know if there is an official upgrade for this now? 2) If not, is there a reliable...

Cool thanks for that, wasn't aware of titanium etc etc will have a further look. I was just looking at the basic homepage that comes with the roms and was a bit alarmed! I think something cool should be on out of the box though when the new os comes out. as long as normal phone users dont...

Why has manila been removed from most if not all of the 6.5 roms? Am I missing something here? The 'new' interface for win mo 6.5 seems to me to be absolute rubbish as an interface. I have installed XBmod over the top. What's the point of this new interface? It's limited at best. If you...

GPS works ok! I've been having serious problems with getting the GPS to work on earlier 6.1 builds. Almost gave up, so thought I'd try the 6.5 build to see how it works. GPS seems to work fine so far!!! Not given it a proper test but it picked up a few satellites which is more than can be...

PS, I've installed the Orange ROM. There are no orange customisations at all. It's like a very basic version of the unofficial 1.93 roms doing the rounds here. It's good for those that have an old Oraneg rom and don't wanna risk a cooked rom on here, but if you've already got a new rom such...

Do you know if this update will reset the hard spl and radio versions? Or is it just the rom update. If so, how would I restore my original SPL so that Orange wouldn't know I've tinkered with it?! My phone has a fault you see and I think I will need to have it replaced. Thanks

It finally worked! Well for 3 minutes. I left it in the car plugged in and tomtom suddenly kicked in and worked, then all of a sudden it went off and has not found the satelite since... Oh well!

Thanks for your help guys but I've still got the same problem. TomTom does recognise the internal gps now (so don't need to set it to NMEA) but still doesn't pick up even the slightest of signals. It's definitely trying to get a signal as the round yellow and blue icon is rotating. I've done...

Hi, got a really frustrating problem, could do with some serious help. When I first got my Diamond, my TomTom (V7) was working perfectly. Since upgrading the rom and radio however, it hasn't worked since. The latest Rom I have is Swift v 6 And the latest Radio is Dutty's 1.0.25.7 I've made...

TomTom GPS no longer works Many thanks for the Rom which is great, however I have now got a problem. On the original Orange rom that came with the diamond, tom tom 7 worked great and the gps picked up the satellite no problems. Since installing this rom, TomTOm works however it just can't...

Ok, thanks mate, but are there any settings I can change so it looks like how it did in the earlier version? Thanks

Hi, i've tried searching for this answer but no luck. I have upgraded to this rom, which works really quickly, however I noted the animation for the home screen clock now does not work. On the original Rom, when you scrolled back to the home screen the clock would 'flip'. I appreciate that...
