I have installed Android OS (energize) on my HD2 and was wondering if someone knew how I could get an icon for windows in the list so I can switch back and forth os instead of rebooting the phone every time??
you cant switch, when you boot to android it (almost) kills windows. It isn't running in the background, or at least not in a way that would let you switch to it and run apps.
(or at least thats my understanding of haret.)
You can't switch "back and forth". Windows isn't running so you have to reboot the phone in order to start it.

I have a Touch Dual and I am trying to do the ROM upgrade.
All connected, manage to go through the 2 wizard screens then hit upgrade, the bar stays on 0%, as does the phone then I get failed. I can reboot the phone and it's back to where it was.
I am running the upgrade on a Vista 64Bit machines
Any thoughts?
Hey all,
I believe this is my first post here (I've been sandbagging for a while) , and I hate to introduce myself with a question...
But, I guess I'm going to anyway.
I'm trying to get Eclipse working on my desktop (Pentium D running XP sp-III) and have had many, er... learning experiences. The latest and most frustrating to date is getting the emulator to run.
I had a lot of issues with the SDK/ADT updates yesterday, but after deleting everything from Eclipse on down and reloading everything with v. 21.1 instead of 21.0, things seemed to be progressing.
Until I launched the emulator. The first time, nothing happened until the screen went black and the BIOS splashscreen came up.
The second and third times, the emulator launched and displayed a black, blank window, then the entire machine crashed again and rebooted. That's rebooted as in all the way. :banghead:
I searched but had no luck. Has anyone seen this? Could it be that my system is just too old?
I also have a second boot (Ubuntu 10.04) but I haven't loaded the Android SDK on it yet. Would that be a better way to go?
Thanks!
Help!
I have a unlocked AT&T Motorola Backflip (I know its old) and have been trying to install Android 2.3.7 CyanogenMod7. I go through making a recovery image and use Superuser to do a Wipe All. I then flash from the SDcard the zipped file. Everything appears to work fine. After the reboot the phone comes up in the Home page where I can see the apps ect. The issue is that when the phone goes to sleep or restarts I am at the initial power up screen ( where you would select phone, home or return). It is at this point that the home button fails to do anything. I get a short vibration indicating that the phone recognizes I have pushed the button but nothing else happens. When I restore the recovery image everything works fine.
It appears that the link between the home button and the location of the home page is missing.
I would really appreciate expert advice on how to proceed.
Thanks

CyanogenMod 7.1 mapping
Thanks for the information. If I may pose a follow-up. Based on my description, do you think there is different mapping with Android 2.1.1 and Andriod 2.3.7?
Also, is there a way to tell what mapping is being used in Android 2.3.7 or CyanogenMod7?
I appreciate you help.
Yesterday I updated a nightly build (cm-13.0-20151222-NIGHTLY-mako.zip) and unfortunately the phone began to show a series of problems (ouldn't make calls,couldn't access the contacts,...).
Reading on the internet i found many people suggesting to downgrade to a working build, so i downloaded the last one that was working on my phone (3 days earlier 12/19): the nightmare began!
After the boot, the phone (nexus 4) shows repeatedly "Unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped" and when i click on "ok" it just pops up again and again, until it automatically reboots, and the whole thing goes on for ever.
If i don't touch the phone it reboots automatically until the batteries are completely dead.
I have tried to adb push from bootloader but the terminal (from ubuntu) hangs there without signs of life. If i open nautilus and I try to copy the new build, my ubuntu freezes, only the mouse works without any use.
Is there a way to miraculously solve this problem?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
use fastboot to manually flash the stock partitions, then it will be clean stock, and you can start over.
search google for how to setup fastboot on your linux machine if you dont know how, i cant help with that.
Hi,
So here's my problem. (Sorry, it's a long story)
I purchased a phone from a french company ("Archos") three months ago. The Android phone was working fine until lately when I've been getting random freezes. When I would scroll on an app (Twitter's Feed, Reddit Homepage), the phone would freeze. The only way to solve this problem was by rebooting entirely the phone. Sometimes, the phone would also freeze at random moments (on the Lock Screen, the Homepage, etc...) with the only issue being to restart the phone.
I tried to factory reset the phone but it kept on freezing, even freezing on the first page of the Android Setup Wizard (The one with the "Welcome" label and the "Get Started" button) preventing me from touching the "Get Started" button. After multiple reboots and factory resets the phone was still freezing randomnly.
One thing to know is that the phone was apparently running Cyanogenmod since it's primary launcher was Trebuchet. So, I tried to install a stock copy of Android Nougat (7.0) hoping it would fix the problem. The thing is, there's no TWRP image available for my device (Archos Sense 55S). Instead, I used an tool name "SP Flash Tool" to flash directly a copy of Android onto my phone (I managed to find one online).
But the problem did not get solved. Now, it's worse. Before, even though the phone kept on freezing on the first page of the Android Setup Wizard, 1/12 of the time, it would let me touch the "Get Started" button and proceed with the rest. Now, it won't let me touch the button at all, it seems like the application is not receiving any input at all. I know the screen isn't broken because the "Enter SIM Card password" prompt works perfectly fine and when I want to turn off the phone, I can easily select "Power Off", "Reboot", confirms "OK" on the "The Phone will restart" dialog box, adjust the volume levels, the screens responds! But on the Android Setup Wizard: nothing's happening.
I am desperate. It feels like I have tried everything. I cannot install anything else (through ADB & Fastboot) since I can't unlock the bootloader because I can't allow OEM and/or USB debugging (I can't access the settings without completing the Android Setup Wizard). My question is there a way to install a custom rom with SP Flash tool? If so, is it recommend? Won't that brick the phone? Or is it too late now, and it's over?
Thank you for your time.
