Hello, I have a HP Touchpad 32GB running with Cyanogen Alpha3.
Yesterday i set up a locked home screen with a pin.
But if my TP locked the screen there is no field and no pattern to put in a pin?
How can I fix these problem.
I reflash alpha 3 but the problem is still there.
Thanks for help.
Have you got ADB set up for your touchpad?
No, do you have a how to do, for that ?

How to unlock your device using ADB:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971768
Then you can play with the lockscreen settings till you get the settings for CM7 right.
EDIT: The above links only allow you to unlock if you have the above problem, it won't help you fix this problem if this is a CM7 bug, but you can try.
But I am not sure is USB Debugging is on.
Or can I reset my TP to factory settings ?
If you didnt turn it off, its on by default, look for a bug in the notifications to verify it.
Reset, I'm not sure. When you reflash, it maintains the previous settings?
Side note: It is good to have ADB installed, it is mandatory for a device like TouchPad which needs developers loving
Ok, than I will try it after work,
But there is a symbol on my notification bar, look like a oval, a horizontal line and a horizontal wave line and a red 4 on the corner.

Can I make a backup with cwm, than reset to Factory.
Reboot and than restore with cwm. Or if I restore all with cwm than I have the same set up ?
With the same Problem ?
Or it is possible to restore only my apps ?
Backup apps + data using titanium backup after applying the above method. Don't back up restore with CWM cause you will still be locked out of your TouchPad like now
Now your priority is on getting into ur device to disable the lock or tweak the settings to perfection

But if my USB Debugging is off, than I have no chance with adb ?
Yup you will not be able to use.

Hey XDA,
My question is, how to enable the default lock screen on VillainROM 3.4.
Like this one:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This one:
Or this one:
Please say to me if this is possible, and what file(s) i need for the process.
Thx for reading!
i also would like to know this
Navigate to the folder where adb is installed using cmd
1. adb remount
2. adb shell
3. su
4. cd /system/app
5. rm HtcLockScreen.apk
6. reboot
Let me know if this works
They are the correct commands yes, some newer 2.1 builds currently have a problem with this lock screen though so nandroid first.
Hopefully a fix for this should be out soon.
Edit: no need to "SU" in adb remounting is enough
ok thx guys!
i'll try this!
hmmm i updated my phone to Villian 5.03.
and it doesn't work..
u can delete htclockscreen.apk
after that it f*cks up the lockscreen..
there was a fix for that, i tryed that, but then the phone crashes..
The fix will need to be ported over to be compatible with our GSM heroes. I have sent the info to Nathan and he should include it in his next VillainRom
ok thx for that!!
and btw. am i the only one, with the problem that the alarm doesn't work!?!?
it just won't ring :S
Oh should have said.
HTC Clock (alarm clock part) is linked to HTC Lock Screen.
If you remove the lock screen you will need to install the vanilla clock app or get a 3rd party alarm app from the market.
yes yes, i already red that..
but it doesn't work, it just locks up my phone, when i apply the fix for the messed up lockscreen.
but the alarm also doesn't work after a clean install(full wipe+install rom)
When things don't work after a full wipe and reinstall I suggest you install a 1.5 rom that works (stock rooted or modaco) run that for a few hours then try to reinstall a 2.1 rom and hopefully all should be back to working.
If however you install a 1.5 and alarm still does not work then we need to find out what is causing it.
Hey everyone, I've searched thru the forum looking to see if someone had the same issues I did, and the stellar assistance that was given to others with various problems, I'm hoping that I can get the same (haven't seen anyone with my particular issues yet).
As mentioned in the title, I'm using a stock T-Mobile Amaze, unlocked and I'm using it in Barbados. A few weeks ago, a notification popped up on my phone.

Naturally, I was curious to see what this update was, but after ensuring that everything that was required for the update was in place, I see this...
...which I'm sure means there's some error in installing the update. The phone freezes, and I can't get out of this without doing a battery pull a la blackberry. This is issue 1.
Issue 2 is that a lot of my menus have wrong names, e.g. the 1 for Wireless connections says "Turn It On"
and even the options within the menus are wrong, e.g. In the display menu, to set the screen brightness, that option is entitled "Set A PIN code to lock your UIM Card"
Further to these, often when I try to access many of my settings, the whole shebang crashes, and asks me about sending an error report. Til now, nothing has changed in that regard. Any assistance to these problems would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Your best bet is just to do a master reset on the phone. It should clear up all those issues.
tried it...didn't work (well, the menus still are screwed up, and the settings keep crashing when i try to access some of them, like the Sound menu.)

Have you tried locking your bootloader and flashing the stock firmware?
You already unlocked your bootloader, right?
Just flash a custom rom.
If you REALLY want to flash the 1.43 update then relock your bootloader and flash this: http://goo.gl/KvHzj
Rename it to PH85IMG.zip and store it on the root of your sdcard.
It will update everything.
Then unlock your bootloader again, reroot and you'll be good.
Hi,
I've upgraded my Samsung Galaxy Ace to 2.3.6 but after doing it my Wifi got disconnected every after 2-3 mins for 4-5 seconds, I have reinstalled the driver as well but it doesn't work, please help in this matter...!!
Thanks,
Swapneal
maybe downgrade to your old firmware and reflash the new will help
or just enter recovery mode (when phone is off, Home-Button + Power-Button) and wipe data + wipe cache (but then all your apps and setups are gone, so make a backup of them using Titanium Backup, but root is required)
hope this will help u, dude
Reflash the official way, that should help
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA
faced the same issue, couldnt find any solution anywhere so did the following and it worked (screengrab below)
i hope you have CWM installed
My Model: Samsung Galaxy S Gt-i9000
Version: 2.3.6
Make sure your Wifi is on and Notify on available connection is ticked
Goto Recovery mode and wipe Dalvik Cache, no need to wipe anything else
reboot device, when the device starts your WiFi should be connected for good although in my case it shows as follows
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Update: Just discovered another method... for All Dlink users out there do this and you wont have an issue with WiFi with 2.3.6 update
Login to your Router
GoTo Advanced> Network Filter and from the dropdown menu select "Turn MAC Filtering on and ALLOW computers listed to access the network"
save the settings
Voila!!
and by using this option my WiFi connectivity has become super fast
It happens to me too. Have you fixed it?
Login on your router, go to DHCP settings and find the item called "leasing time".
The default value of the "Leasing time" is usually "Forever" and this is the bug with Android 2.3.6
Change the value of the "Leasing time" from "Forever" to any other value (e.g. "Two weeks").
Hello
I would like my Android device encrypted, as it contains sensitive data. I'm currently on cm-9.0.0-rc1-tinystream-hephappy-p500 (RC1-Rev.B). Now, here is what happened:
- To encrypt internal
I went to Security in System Settings and touched "Encrypt Device". It gave some confirmations and I've accepted them however, now I'm kind of stuck on this screen.

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
My first thought was "it is encrypting". But after hours of waiting, I wanted to check if it's done already. So I clicked the power-button once (just to unlock) and it asked for my password. I've entered it and it just went into my normal launcher. I've checked if anything had changed and no, my device has not been encrypted. Any logs somewhere? Any ideas what could have caused the problem?
- To encrypt SDcard
I did some research and didn't find something perfectly for my needs. Anyone has any idea on how to encrypt an SD card to properly work together with Android?
Note: I am using LINK2SD.
Thanks for your help
Another question that actually has nothing to do with my previous post that I post here because it's not worth a new thread: every time I plug in my phone into the charger, it boots automaticly. I don't want that, my previous build of CM9 did just recharge without booting, something I prefer. Any way to configure that?
Another question I want to add to the this thread: is it possible to combine a password lock and a slide lockscreen? Like when I encrypt the phone to enter a password to decrypt it again and then just use the normal slide lockscreen to unlock it each time after the decryption?
One last question: is there any way to encrypt the SQL database in Android? As it contains sensitive data... I've read something about SQLCipher but it doesn't get to work (any help would be appreciated).

Using adb, you can try running Settings and see what's going on. Are your apps really missing or is your launcher just screwed up?
Do you have any data on the device? I would consider just backing up everything and reflashing a stock ROM or doing a clean wipe.

I already tried that and all APPs are missing. There's nothing installed. and I don't have custom recovery to return to stock ROM. And can't install gapps because in recovery there's no section saying install zip or something like that. i tried and wrote gapps and rom on sd card and can't flash them.
Have you tried adb pushing the apk for google apps and then launching the app via homescreen icon or adb shell command?
This is the first time I've ever encountered all apps missing. Also since you don't have a custom recovery installed, you can always root and install it.

Thank you for your help but i think it's dead. I tried pushing apps and launching via shell but no deal. I installed play store but when i try to download something it crushes immediately. Thanks again...
