I had this app camera magic which i uninstalled now the issue is tht the camera button mapping has gone for a toss. It simply starts compose new msg. :-/ anyone know a advanced config tool like winmo... im praying it doesnt need root access to work right.

You might have to factory reset your phone. Back your apps up first using astro or similar. Make sure you've synchronized your contact lost etc too. Then it won't be too painful to set your phone back up.

I found a way to force the OTA update.

I have searched around and I couldn't find anyone that has mentioned this before. If you really want the JI6 and don't want to use Kies and when you hit the "software update button" it shows "no firmware" I found a way to force it.
*****JI6 bricks a lot of phones. rooted or unrooted... so be careful! I would unroot and remove any lagfixes just to be safe. If you're phone gets bricked it is not because of this method. it is because JI6 has issues. if you do get bricked... check out this thread: forum.xda-developers [dot] com/showthread.php?p=8522603#post8522603****
**DUMMY PROOF INSTRUCTIONS!**
If you already have launcher pro:
1) goto your homescreen.
2) menu key, add.
3) hit shortcuts and then activities.
4) scroll down to device management
5) select "com.wssyncmldm.wssAppDmUiMain" and hit ok
6) this will put a shortcut on your homescreen that will say device management with blue and red arrows.
7) open that shortcut up and hit software update.
if you don't have launcher pro or don't know what it is.
1) goto the market.
2) search "Launcher Pro" or "Federico Carnales"
3) look for a yellow icon with a house on it.
4) install that.
5) once installed hit your homekey. select launcherpro but don't select use as default until you fall in love with launcherpro ;]
6) then, follow the steps above

Wao...thanks
Wating for froyo now

Is this for all countries or just the current?

I'm pretty sure its just for the states.
however i was messing around in the settings of that shortcut... and it apears that you can mess with the DM server connection settings and you can mess with a bunch of stuff... so maybe if you change the APN to whatever carrier you are using it would work??
Try it. follow my steps above. goto settings then DM connection settings and edit the network profile apn settings.

It works :]
This might lead to other cool stuff down the road as well... there are some really cool settings in that shortcut. you can change it to "lab" and "production" profile... so maybe we can get a leaked froyo a little early??

Same thing here! I am completely new on this.
What's launcher pro? I have the American Vibrant but I am using in Germany. Would it work?

This worked for me. Good post. Downloaded Launcher Pro from the market (Free), and then followed these directions. Immediately my 3G arrows were working overtime, and withing 3min I had the OTA available message.

the wssappdmuimain is the first shortcut. Just select it and say ok. It should place a shortcut on your home screen that says device management with a blue and red arrow. Then open that shortcut and hit software update.

Maybe in blind but where is the activities shortcut?

Followed intructions to the T. I would suggest doing it over WIFI.
I click on the shortcut and received the update in less than 2 mins.
Installation over WIFI took 4 mins. Hung at the S screen for 3 mins.
Kept all setting and apps, everything works. GPS locked onto 8 out of 12 sats in less than 10 seconds.
3g signal is increased, wifi signal seems to be increased as well..
Awsome find.........

New to all this.
But Just tried it can't find device management in the list.

The list is alphabetical... so... yeah. right under Daily briefing and DataCreate...
are you in the launcherpro activities list?

Well didnt work for me . I hit software update... the same arrow appear on the top of my phone but they disappeared like in 3 secs! Nothing happened afterwards.
As I have said, does anyone has idea if this would work being overseas? I have the American version, because I bought in NY on Craiglist... But right now I am in Germany.

Try this. homescreen > menu key > settings > wireless and network > mobile networks > access point names
What does it say? whatever is selected and if your data is working... write down that APN.
THEN. if you still have the device management shortcut on your homescreen. go into that. select settings then network profile then for the APN change it to whatever you are currently using for your german carrier.
let me know if this works. if it does not and you need to revert the settings the tmobile apn is: epc.tmobile.com

X8 auto rotation not working.

I tried an app called live home or home live on my rooted x8, since then the auto rotate function has stopped working. Even when typing this it doesn't work. I have since uninstalled the app, rebooted hoping it would come back. Sadly it hasn't. Does anyone know how to get it back ?.
Auto rotation is selected. Stock 2.1 rom

Well, maybe a master reset can do the trick for you, too bad that you will lose all your setings and programs. : (

Have you checking if its just been turned off in settings > display???
Sent from my X8 using XDA App

maybe the app disable it n change the setting for it, try install it again, enable the auto rotatin (hope there is one) n uninstall if u don't need it anymore

I uninstalled it, restarted it then reinstalled the App seems to work now, wonder why it did that.

More than welcome, autorun manager is nice as well but you need the paid version for it to be any use and Gemini does the job so well.

i believe it can also be amended in skype to not auto start or am i missing something?

You can set in the Skype setting, don't tick the automatic.

Skype still has a bad habit of auto starting whenever you receive or make a phone call, signed in or not.
It has TONES of autostart conditions.

Im also looking for the settings so it wont auto start, I cant seem to see it under settings aside from automatically sign in which is already unticked.

You need the reworked SKYPE version hit menu button and option should be there in your face along with exit button.
Note you will have to uninstall original skype before installing the moreworked version. here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16643098#post16643098

If you want to turn off the autostart option do this; disable skype contacts’ sync through Skype settings.

Apps start themselves in background

Hello guys I have a strange question:
a friend has the problem that sometimes he unlocks his phone, some apps are shown instead of the honescreen. He says he leaves the app via the back button, we could exclude that the apps start in the pocket. Also he shuts his phone off very rarely (right word?!? means not often).
Maybe you can help?
Thanks and Greets

He says its most of the times "contacts" or similar. so important and not ad-based. I think I will tell him to download an antivirus program to check his phone and something like sdmaid.
I mean if he doesnt start the app by himself, the app either has to start by itself or by another app right?
And if nothing helps could we really say that its caused by the software and tell him to do a factory reset or restore the system?
