[Q] Rooting contact issue - XPERIA X10 Android Development

Hi.
First, great job for the root tool.
Then, I updated my X10i to r2ba026. But since, I can see the list of my contacts but I can't show them. One click do nothing, and a long press on a contact and clicking on showing throw an android.process.acore error.
Any idea how to solve it please ?
Thanks.

Can that being linked to the fact I deleted Timescape ?

Yes, don't delete Timescape.

Any tip for me how to restore it ? Don't have a backup ...
Sent from my X10i which rule !

I think there's a way but I'm not exactly the best person for advice because I am a bit of a beginner.. but il try explain according to my knowledge..
Something like..
Getting hold of timescape.apk and .odex copy (which I might possibly have on my laptop)
Then using some adb commands to push the file back on to system and I gues instal it.. don't know the commands but I'm sure if you search for it ul come across something useful.
Hope its of some use!!

Here you are
I have created small script which will do it for you
1) download the zip file
2) unzip it
3) connect phone to pc(do not forget to have debug mode turned on)
4) run runme script
should be done, phone will restart automaticaly
if some error occur, paste it here

Using a third party contact app, such as acontact, nullifies the issue. You can do without timescape!

Yep. I'll second this. Any third-party phonebook/contact app should do. I've tried aContacts and Phonebook 2.0, and both work beautifully without Timescape installed. And they're both more feature-rich than the default phonebook.

Have ya tried quickcall by userscreen networks? (in market)
doesn't really show field labels but I guess thats the whole point of quick call.. has drop down arrow which shows contact numbers for easy calling.. looks pretty neat too!!

Text input theming?

Okay so I've re-themed the phone and it really does look great, however, I'm a 'texter' and I can't find anything to change my input screen, handcent done a pretty good job for everything else message related but not the input screen. Also is it possible to disable the default messaging notifications?

Sorry buddy I have recently discovered that I can't see files on the xda app, how did you do it? Did you have to edit the message apk or was it in the framework?
Error when trying to install "Default input could not be installed on this phone."
Do I install this or mount the file?

I've deinstalled the default one (with titanium backup)and then installed this,but i think the best way is to use adb and replace the original.

Anychance of sharing the codes for doing this? I'm new to adb and not confident enough to go about it myself!
The easyest way is to use titanium backup(there is a free app on the market) to deinstall the original and then install this.
P.S. make a reboot after unistall

[Q] Problem With Android Market

Hi! I got recently problem with my Android Market. I'm not quite sure what's the problem, but I think because I removed the important system applications. You know google's apps. The problem is that when I want to download an app from the market, it just stands on beginning to download the app, it never goes further....
How should i fix this?
Please help me.
Regards Paul

Go to settings - manage applications and scroll down to market (impt: only market app and not the other market related apps) and then uninstall updates. And then download the apps u want.

Market servers are down. Be patient . WIll be normal soon
yes, I have had issues as well. No "downloads" were showing...
downloaded one app and now they are back.
could have been a Market server issue as well, but was screwed up for 2 days.
btw: the uninstall updates trick does work in most cases when Market is acting up
is the server still down ?

I had this problem from last thus till yesterday. Was so p'd off I uninstalled the markets app. I'd recently updated and after uninstall the app was still there but as the previous version, it's working fine now. So I think it's something to do with the updates.

Orginel Facebook on Tab 10.1 This one works fast and great on the Tab

http://www.freewarelovers.com/android/download/temp/1305810095_Facebook_for_Android_1.5.4.apk
Oke i know that the origenel Facebook from the market doesen't work that well on the Tab.
So i have tryed to install an old version of Facebook, wiche i have also on my SGSII, This version is the only one for me that gets all the newsfeed etc!
So i dowload the Facebook.apk (1.5.4) Then i used root explorer to move the apk.file to system/apps, then i clicked on the file and choose install!
It works great on my tab 10.1 (GT-7510) its works smooth and fast!

EDIT 1: I get an error during login "An error occurred during sign in. Please try again later" (my internet connection is working fine)
Stay tuned...It might just be one of my settings somewhere, give me a minute.
EDIT 2: Yep it was, I fixed it.
Looks like its working great, thanks for the download.

I find it easier to just adb install it since my GT is already connected to the computer and I'm on the computer. No need to take all the extra time to move to SD card, open an app, move the file to system, then install it.
For those of you who don't know how to do this:
1. Connect the device to your computer with USB Debugging enabled
2. Open command prompt and type "cd c:\android-sdk\platform-tools" (or wherever your Android SDK adb files are)
3. Type "adb devices" and make sure it's reading your device
4. Put the .apk into the root of your C: drive if you haven't already. (of course you don't HAVE to if you know what you're doing and are comfortable doing it)
5. Type in command prompt "adb install c:\Facebook_for_Android_1.5.4.apk"
6. Wait for it to install successfully, unplug your device, and you should have the App in your App Drawer.
Note1: If you already have a facebook app installed, you might have to uninstall before doing this.
Note2: Don't add the quotes when typing in Command Prompt, just type what's inside the quotes.

I havent had that issue. Being rooted shouldnt change anything because it doesnt need superuser permissions.
Well first i instald it like the normal way, it worked... Except the notifications, when i looked furthure i saw that the apk file did't show up in system/apps.
Show the instalation worked but diden't push the file tru!
So then i removed the app, and thoke the apk file and copy it to system/apps by using root explorer. Then i clicked the apk file in system/apps and select instal, basecly its same instalation but now youre sure the file is pushed where it shoud be right?

Correct. Does it work fine after doing that?
Why would it matter at all if you install this normally or push into system/app? I don't think with an app like FB that it matters...installing the apk normally seems to be the same as getting it from the Market..
best FB app is the browser. no need for an extra app to access FB, IMO.

Once the old market is installed, and you run it does it autmatically update them to the new market again?
And also you should link to the original dev.

You can also stop the market updating itself by opening up terminal and typing:
su -
pm disable com.android.vending.updater
You will get a message to say its been disabled. I usually just use route explorer to move a copy of the old market (vending.apk) to system/apps and set permissions, run terminal with the above command and voila! Must say though, it will be nice to see how this installer works, especially if it cuts down on excess finger tapping..
I've never been able to use any of the new markets, its awful. Not sure if there's any weird issues with the internet around here but it was so hard to get anything installed. It could take 20 mins to install a single app, I could have configured my whole phone from scratch in that time!
Good work!

Haha yeah i know what you mean, i had a few problems with some of the new versions as well, just like that but with mine it would never actually install. It would finish the download then say it was corrupt and could not install. Or something along those lines. But the newest one seems to work for me now. The only reason i want an old market is for the old theme of it.
Cheers for the info tho, ill have a look, havent installed this yet, just finished putting Flame.E 0.2 on my mimmi.
