Hello, I purchased a X10 today and linked all my google contacts to their respective Facebook profiles. The problem i am having is that the default pictures are not updating to the Facebook profile picture, they are just the basic no picture icons that comes with the phone. How would i fix this issue?

Is your country of origin update available? Use PC Companion or SEUS instead.Try that before using any customised ROM in XDA
You have to enable "check for new update when phone is connnected" for PC Companion.Open SEUS to check new updates too

It helped alot. I got 2.1 on my device. I'm in the US so the update wasn't released, had to use the flasher to get it on there with the updated SEUSB drivers. I had to go back to 1.6 because 2.1 was very slow and sluggish. Switching screens, phone book, texting, timescape, and keyboard were all lagging. Did you have this problem? And also I had no 3G, it would just have a "H" where the 3G icon was suppose to be.

Glad to hear that!
hmmm...I don't have any lag with my generic firmware.You can always do some configuration by changing your current firmware to Global generic.
Check this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8973041#post8973041
Until your country's official firmware release is available,do a repair using SEUS.
There are some steps that you can follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828163&highlight=country+codes
Btw in 2.1 update H = High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) which is supposed to be faster that 3G.

I dont think pc companion will recognize phone with cm... cm is completely new built, diferent from stock. So you will not restore phone book this way. As far as i can remember, you can open the phonebook in pc and overwrite the numbers. Next time synchronize your contacts with gmail account, its not rom dependant and it will work on any android phone...

Hello,
sorry for my terrible english.
I have a Nexus 7 2013 Wifi tablet with Android 5.1.1 and a Nexus 5 with Android 6. Both stock and without root.
I have a problem:
I want to backup / save my conversations from the Skype app. With root, it would not be a problem.
But the big problem: I havent root any devices. I could root my devices, but first I must unlock the bootloader, with completly wipes my storage (and my Skype app with all conversations / chats).
I have a question, and please help me: How can I save / download / backup / extracting the Skype conversations / chats without root or unlock my bootloader? I know I can read the conversations on my Windows PC or even paste it on the Skype Windows Application.
But first I must get the App files...
How can I get these files WITHOUT root?
Adb is activated already. Encryption is on both devices deactivated.
It is really important for me, because I was dumb and formated my PC without backup my Skype files. And the conversations / chats are really really imporant (much memories and feelings...)
Please, can someone help me? :crying:
Thank you very much.
hey,
no chance without root?
Is it possible to save the Skype massages via ADB?
Hello everyone.
Please, I would need your help to the following issue I have.
I have a pretty old cell phone: Samsung Galaxy GT-S7580. And I want to backup sms messages, but only locally on PC.
Samsung's smart switch does not support this model.
Samsung's Kies does support it. I installed Kies on PC, and I have indeed backuped up on PC: contacts (SIM+device), S-Planner and calling log. The only one that it's missing is sms messages backup.
Although Kies util does have this option of sms backup, when I tap on it, it does not make the backup. I do not know why there is this option there.
Cell's phone Android version is 4.2.2, which cannot be updated (max that can be done).
I have tried also Coolmuster Android Assistant program, but, unfortunately, it does not support specific model.
Can you please help me backup up the sms messages locally?
Thank you for your time!

Thank you for your answer. The problem is that the program cannot find the device (cell phone). When trying connect, cannot detect it.
It's very strange, because Kies from Samsung does detect it, and also, Windows explorer displays it as device, and with double clicking, I can see phone's contents/data.
You need to install MyPhoneExplorer Client on your phone, which communicates with MyPhoneExplorer on windows.

Hi!
I think that it's possible that your phone may not be compatible with MyPhoneExplorer. In this case, you could try a different backup app that supports your device.
Thanks again for quick answer. The problem is that phone is completely full and out of space. I cannot install application (lient).
Even if I try to uninstall a util/program from phone, what I have understood and come in inclusion all these years is that when from cell phones (as far as it concerns Play Store and Android), so, when uninstalling, in truth nothing happens. Nothing I mean no truly files of "uninstalling" application is removed. All application files stay on phone, and in truth, the only thing that is being removed is application icon. No space is being gaind with "uninstall".
See if you can do sms backup through google service.
https://guidebooks.google.com/android/getstarted/backupyourmessages
I do not want to use Google or any other cloud backup provider. I want to use hard drive locally PC backup and restore.
I agree that MyPhoneExplorer is not compatible with my phone. Would you have any other application that would help for locally backup/restore?
I checked in a device with android 4.1.2 and everything works fine.
- check what applications you have installed
adb shell pm list packages
- identify them and determine the unnecessary ones
- uninstall, for example:
adb shell pm uninstall com.ivona.tts.voicebeta.fra.fra.celine
Once you free up space, install the old version of the client, start MyPhoneExplorer on your PC, connect via USB to your phone and let MyPhoneExplorer update the client version on your phone to the version appropriate for your phone.
These commands: where should I execute them? On a Linux PC? And when:
a. First have connected PC and phone with USB cable and
b. Then on PC (if Linux) I execute them?
Or somewhere else? Please, if you don't mind, a little more help would appreciate.
On your phone, activate USB debugging.
Download SDK Platform-Tools for your OS
Connect the phone to your PC with a USB cable
Confirm access on the phone
Check in the terminal on the PC the visibility of the phone by adb devices
Execute the remaining commands.
I have found the way to execute adb commands.
Now, there is other problem. Insufficient space for application.
I try apps to uninstall, but no result. 1-1 and try to install, with no result. The 3-rd party apps I have installed are with small size. So, 1 by 1 uninstalling has no result, and I lose time.
2 applications with big size that maybe would be the solution to uninstall, unfortunately are not third party. They are system. These 2 are:
Galaxy Apps
YouTube
If I uninstall them (I have no problem unistalling, I do not use them on old Galaxy), so, if I uninstall them, would it make any s/w damage to phone (maybe no startup later)?
I know that I will use Motorola new phone now, but just in case I need something in old phone some day. So, with these two uninstall, I would be ok or not?
If the system allows you to uninstall system applications, it actually enables you to return to the initial version.
This is also a benefit, because there will be smaller versions.
By far, thing are better.
I made space on Samsung. I installed MyPhoneExplorer on Samsung, Motorola and Windows.
First, I backed up from Samsung contacts + SMS on two files respectively. Then, I run MyPhoneExplorer on Motorola.
I restored contacts on Motorola. It worked fine.
The only problem I have is that SMS cannot be sent to Motorola. When I try to send them (try to restore) on Motorola, on internal storage or in e.g. sent folder for a sent SMS, I get error message: "Messages could not be sent".
Seems like something on Motorola is locked, and stops SMS restore/transferring. Or maybe a setting on Motorola settings or on the application is the solution.
Or maybe I make something wrong to the SMS restore procedure.
Ok. Everything worked perfect.
With SDK platform tools, and "MyPhoneExplorer" and "SMS Backup & Restore" apps, I backed up and restored everything to new Motorola Moto G32.
Your advice was extremely helpful!! Thank you so much!!
In order not open another post, I think that my last problem/question fits to this one.
It's about last backup and restore I want to make from old Samsung to new Motorola. It has to do with Samsung's calendar which is S Planner.
problem is :
a. I want to make the backup not via Google. As above-mentioned for other backups (sms, contact, call log). With a 3rd party app. And not via Kies. Kies will make the backup from Samsung, but it can't be used on Motorola. Have already tried use on Motorola, but Kies is working just on Samsung. So, have you any app to suggest for S Planner backup on old Samsung Android 4.2.2, and, at the same time, be used as a restore app for Motorola?
b. If a. is solved, difficult b. now is that S Planner calendar, as an app, is only for Samsung phones. So, I am trying to find a calendar app alternative to S Planner, to install on Motorola, in order to restore there the calendar backup I will have got from my old Samsung.
Would REALLY appreciate your help!
