[Q] Updating rom without camera button - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
My streak's camera button isn't working. I've dismantled it to have a look and doesn't look like it's fixable.
The title says it all. Can I update without using the camera button? I can get into cwm recovery, but am not able to "choose" any of the options. I've got streakdroid 1.9 and would like to try 2. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks

You're aware the camera button is not very sensitive right? You (or at least I) have to really press it harder than you think.

Yes Aperture, I did press it hard enough, thanks for checking though.

StreadDroid 2.0 is really not yet stable enough for everyday use

Now guys I have another problem. System is too slow, and would like to reinstall. Is it possible at all?

[Q] Itching Thumb?

Itching Thumb is basically a launcher that works with your current launcher and has a card system the same as WebOS. I'm suggesting this for those that want to run android but want the multitasking of WebOS but the apps of android, if anyone could get this to work on the TP, it would be much appreciated!
Looks good. Don't suppose you have an apk? Don't worry if not. I'll Google it next.
It's not on the market or the developers website, that's all.
The apk is on this page

I'll install it tonight and go from there.

if one has enough system disk space due to the applying the fix provided for cm9 to increase the space, can he simply install cm10 like any other nightly?

This Rom is just what we needed after the release of the camera fix. Shows that our touchpad is still alive and well.
Can't wait for this to be fully functional.

Mostly just to have the Jelly Bean features. Jelly Bean also introduces tweaks to the system to make it smoother and faster (project butter). If you are perfectly happy on CM9, then you dont HAVE to update.
And this afternoon, so far, about hours, it works good, no restart, and i install de cyboot, to make android boot default, so, even if it restart, it will restart to android, so no big problem now.

Haven't heard of "de cyboot" before, and am interested in booting cm by default. Assume it's on Play?
Thanks for the heads up.

I didn't want to post this, since it seems like one of those things ripe for the placebo effect, but my loading times do seem faster. The signal is also more stable.

touchscreen sgs 2 problem

Hey, I just bought a samsung i9100 from a network company(orange) with the ics 4.0.4 version on it. Sometimes my screen doesn't work, i mean i'm typing and it doesn't respons but after i turn the phone in lock screen (1 time on power button) it works again. Oh, also it move by itself and if i type on contacts for exaple it execute my command and do one extra touch on some porson from my contacts. I'm convinced that it's a software problem but may i'm thinking wrong?

Must be the touch driver crashing....
*clean your screen, fluids tend to crash touch driver and like you mentioned locking, wiping the screen and unlocking will get it working.
If that doesn't work
*maybe it's because of some app you use crashing/colliding check and see you may might have to try un installing the apps which you installed or updated when the problem started to occur.
*if above two failed try performing a factory reset might help .
*finally flashing a new stock firmware will correct the problem if all above methods failed.

Well.....I think you have just found the answer to your question
Remove it and see if it's all good. If not, returning time it is, don't even bother go flashing firmwares. It's a brand new phone.
Good morning. Guys i was thinking that my screen protection isn't a problem because if i lock the screen and i open it again all works. And sometimes when i'm typeing a text message or i'm on browser it seems to type by itself and i'm looking scared .
p.s : i flashed a new stock rom(4.0.3) , i wiped it and i did all i could. the problem is still there.

It's been a while since I fixed mobiles but it sounds like a hardware issue. (I have heard this can be the LCD but it sounds more like the motherboard.)
Have you updated the phone recently or put on new apps?
Before trying to fix it - try uninstalling any new apps, a factory reset or if you recently updated the phone, try downgrading it.
Hope this helps until someone gives you a definite answer.

did u use any cpu controller or something..?
looks like your cpu got busy that moment. Just do the hardway with unplug the battery.
Unless it happened many times, you'd better do like what jordan0001's suggest, factory reset or upgrade or downgrade
Thanks...maybe I'll should try...to upgrade it...:thumbup:

Download a flashlight app (for example, torch, flashlight, etc.) If it does not work, your camera has an issue and needs replaced. If thats the case, buy a new atrix, the flex cable that the camera is on is hard to find.

Cameras for this phone aren't hard to find. Just go to that auction site and enter MB860 camera flex. Hundreds available and they are like 9 bucks. Also, teardown of the phone is available in the interwebs so anyone can do it easily.
