How to disable the radio on a X10 - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I would like to permanently disable the mobile radio on my X10. I have a new phone and would like to still use the X10 as a game/web device. Tried the service menu through the dialer "*#*#...." but it only allows me to turn off the radio until next power on. Any suggestions?

Take out the SIM card!

Removed the SIM card but mobile radio is still on. Does a ROM without the phone capability exist?
Thanks for the help.

I don't think so. When I take my SIM card out, my radio is off, u can only see grey signal bar icon.

Even with my old at&t SIM removed I still get emergency calls only and full bars. I am going to backup and remove all phone related apps.

I think You should remove phone app.

yes that worked.
with a root explorer go to /system/app/semcphone.apk all I did was rename it semcphone.apk.txt then save. right away the the phone app begins force closing in a loop. pulled out battery and booted. after reboot no phone service at all. i should have made a copy of apk first to go back to phone.....but a quick flash will fix if needed.
is there any way to use a boot time init.d script to go to hidden service menu and turn radios off? I have no knowledge of scripts so... be nice

Don't know about the script but if you have the ROM in zip format then open it and pull/extract only the phone.apk.... using flashtool push the apk onto the phone... if that doesn't work then copy apk onto your mmc and side load it.... I have no idea about script either...

[Q] How to Re-install Lost Contacts.APK in Vibrant

Have the ROM Bionix V 1.3.1 installed and it's a great rom but one issue. I flashed it on 2 phones but contacts force closes on one phone #1 every time I tried to either access it directly or indirectly (like when you long press a number to save a contact). Phone # 2 works great.
So, I deleted contacts.apk on phone #1 and tried to copy the apk from phone # 2 to #1 but it won't let me install. Any tips? I am using An outside dialer just to call now but I have some time now to try to fix it. Any help would be appreciated, czr

Try exporting contacts to memory card and import to new phone!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
That didn't work. Maybe I'm installing contacts.apk wrong. I've been long pressing the second phones contacts.apk on my SD card then long pressing to install. It says installing then application not installed.
Can someone post the vibrant cobtacts.Apk and give me pointers on install so my phone will take it?

^Help anyone?
You can't install system apps just by pressing on them. You have to use root explorer to push app in /system/app directory.

Take the one from the ROM zip itself, or from the phone that it werks on whatever really. Good luck!
You need an app called Root Explorer as Alex mentioned. Then, mount it with root rights and RW privileges (its a checkbox at the top while using it) and copy the apk to the same place it is on the working phone. Then, restart your broken phone and it should be fixed.
If you have the force-closing again, something else is causing it, likely a setting conflicting somewhere. You may need to go ahead and reset some settings from Titanium Backup then.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Such a simple fix since I had a good working copy of the apk on the other phone. Got it to work!

[DELETED LG HOME APP ?] Recovery guide.

Hi,
Recently, I accidentally deleted my LG HOME app from my Optimus One (my phone was rooted). But since I was using GO Launcher Pro at the time, it didn't affect the phone functionality.
But then while playing with the phone I factory reset it, and whoosh ! I was left with no launcher screen at all (LG HOME being the default, which I deleted ). I was left with a blank screen, with just the notification bar.
HERE IS HOW I RECOVERED MY PHONE (and not the LG HOME app):
Step 1: Get a launcher app apk from somewhere and copy it to your SD card.
PS: Search on google 'go launcher ex apk' without the quotes. You can also search for ADW launcher or others (see android market).
Step 2: Turn your phone on.
Step 3: Get someone to call on your phone. Pick up the call.
Step 4: During the call tap the 'Add call button'. You will get the dialer pad, with contacts, call logs and favorites tabs as well.
Step 5: Go to contacts and click the menu hardkey to get the menu. Tap 'New Contact'.
Step 6: When you get the new contact form, tap the image with a '+' sign on it (It is used to add a contact image).
Step 7: Now you will get options as to where to get the file. Select OI File Manager.
Step 8: Navigate to the folder in which you copied the Launcher app (Go launcher, ADW Launcher or the like) and install it.
Voila ! You have a new launcher screen now.
PS : I was relieved when I finally got my launcher back. I was on the brink of flashing my phone to the stock KDW, which could've resulted in a bigger mess (Bricking etc.)
NOTE 1: If you factory reset your phone again, you will lose the launcher again, and will be back without a launcher screen. So make sure you don't do so lest you want to repeat Step 1 thru 8 again.
Word of advice: Make sure you have at least one launcher app installed on your phone (no matter which one, it should run).
USERS PLEASE UPDATE THE THREAD WITH OTHER ADVICES FOR THE PROBLEM.

But then you'd need to install all the android SDK and stuff on your PC.
This is just a work around. Of course, one would be in a problem if you don't have OI File Manager too.
Um, or use search button on phone and search for right app or what ever, search button on phone is pretty useful if you brick your rom. :]

Yes you can extract the zip on sd card and you have to put the app in system/app and set the right permissions. You need root for this and a file manager that read internal storage like Es file explorer.

Hi & Thanks for the look. My phone is in my signature. Basically a virgin Galaxy Nexus unlocked and rooted.
Any .zip I try to install, even as you suggested above gives me the error. Sigh! I want that inverted stuff.
I love you guys and a newb of sorts I am frustrated in all the wonderful stuff that gets posted without install details.
I cannot help but think if I am trying to install a inverted MMS, Gmail, or People .zip should I not disable or rename the current apps that I am replacing?
I experimented flashing the su.zip and it went ok. So it is not my phone.......I think?
Thanks.

If your talking about the mms.apk,
I use root explorer to navigate to the system/app folder and find the OE mms.apk and rename it to mms.apk.bak to disable it. The icon will disappear from the home screen start bar and app drawer.
I then place the new mms.apk in system/app folder and make sure its permissions are all checked off.
Then go to my app drawer and see if its there and will run. If it does I drage the icon back onto my home bar.
Some devices are finicky. Some require a reboot after a renaming then move it in there. Some require a reboot after every move. Its according to the apk and the device.

ok you have erased and deregistered your device from the nook tablet stock settings right? which means ur still rooted in terms of being able to run sideloaded apks.
if you want to take the short route u can just download go launcher ex on your computer and sideload it any do the same process for anything else you are missing, but i would recommend you start from scratch.
to start from scratch, find the superuser.apk which can be found in the nook and zergy installation folder, sideload it onto your nook tablet and also sideload the Nook Tablet Unroot App which Indirect created. Run that app and if all goes well you should have a stock nook tablet at 1.4.0.
just re-run your nook and zergy and you should be fine.
the other option is using adb hijack app, but seeing as you are a novice, i don't think you would want to go that route. hope this helps.
Oh thank you!! Ya I downloaded adb before to go that route and it hurt my brain a little Haha I was happy to find indirects method. Thank you a ton I will do that now!

Okay im getting pretty nervous that im royally screwed. My nook looks like stock 1.4.0 except the little mini book and back button in the status bar that came when I rooted. However....there is no internet browser application ....and every apk I have sideloaded it says.....the nook cannot read this type of file....so I figured I need to re load the appmenu.apk and enable third party....well dur it wont read that file apk either.

ok... what exactly did you do? did you run the nook unroot application that indirect created? I'm kind of confused as to what you did after I posted my suggestions.
I would suggest that you do this.
If it comes to it, power down, hold power and 'n' and it'll turn on, then come to the black background with the n logo then power off. Release just the power button and press and hold again for 7 more times.
On the 9th time just use the power button to turn it on and it'll prompt you with some warnings. Follow through with the continue and it will perform the steps.
BE WARNED: this will perform a complete factory restore so any installed apps will be gone but it won't touch your SD card.

You cannot install apks that way, it will always say that, easiest way is to install the GApps and then get root explorer and copy the files from your SD card to /system/app.

Ok ready im gonna walk you through it.
Root your device
Download the latest super user package, the full package
Unzip the package on your computer, and then find the su in ./system/bin and the SuperUser.apk into the sdcard.
Using root explorer, mount /system/ as rw, and then copy su into /system/bin and superuser.apk into /system/app.
done
your instructions are very clear, but I am not sure how I can move anything in ROOT explorer when I can't get root explorer on my device in the first place....I finally found a download in my browser, and was able to install it on my device...but when I go in there is no option to MOUNT R/W it is simply mounted in R/O....
I keep RE-downloading Go Launcher from my email, and re-opening it....because every single time I hit my N button it takes me back to stock with no way to find the go launcher app....I don't care as long as I can get this dang SU issue fixed so I can unroot and be done with this. what am I missing here, I am sorry i must be very frustrating...but there is no option to change the system to R/W in my root explorer, where there was the button at the top to easily do that before. I am assuming it has to do with the SU not being updated, but I can't do that without rootexplorere akkk and I am not advanced enough to use ADB I dont think.....any ideas? my tablet easily downloads and installs things from emails.....thats the only thing I have going for me right now

Accelerometer Calibration?

I have noticed that ever since I've had my atrix, the accelerometer has been off by a few degrees to the left. Does anyone know if there is a way to calibrate it? Maybe someone who is really familiar with android could tell me where to look in order to modify the values for the default calibration... I have no idea where to start.
Anyone else have this issue?

Please man I really need help here.
Another problem I have with the atrix is that the new version of yutube does not works, I don't knkow why, Many says that is because of some codes and the cpu, but I tried MIUI v5 and the youtube was working fine, so, please help me there too.
I am trying to upload a video review of miui v5 on the atrix 4g
Maybe is useless, but try to replace \system\lib\libnmea.so from attacmhent. Make backup of yours first.

Hi man, sorry for bothering you again, but I tried to overwrite the file with the file that you gave me but when I tab on paste it says permission denied. My phone is rooted and I am ussing file explorer. What can I do to overwirte the file?
Depends of the file manager/explorer you must mount /system as r/w. In SE file explorer open left side menu, scroll down to root explorer, enable and tap it, you'll get menu with mount r/w option, select rw for system.
Yes, I have already done taht

I undestand what you say, I have already done that, that is why I can get to the system folder but when I try to overwrite the file it says permission denied. why? is it because the superuser app is updating its binary? I will wait until the update is over and try it again. Thanks
You may try to move file to safe location (BACKUP!!!) and then copy new one. Set permission as before.
yes man, Everything ready

the binary just finished updating and I just overwrote the files. Is this it to fix the calibration problem? or do I have to do something else?
Reboot your phone (will reboot itself if you try to use gps), go outside and test with GPS Status & Toolbox. Maybe you need to select internal gps in phone settings.
Good luck
a little something

Man, sorry about this but before I replaced the file (with its original file) the g-sensor on the bubble app use to give me the number 00,1 and 04, but now it gives 01,7 and 05,9. So I think that must be something in that file that I can change to fix that problem. Please can you xplain to me how to change the code of that file or if you can can do it for me it would be wonderful. thanks again.
Have a nice day
So still doesn't work?
