LinkIn and flicker.apk on MOTOBLUR - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear Mate,
I have a Red Defy (not +) using MS2Gingger 3.0 and its full blur. I'm really love this ROM. But I want to ask about MOTOBLUR. In application (on root system) I found "blur.Flicker.apk and blur.LinkIn.apk" but why those apk doesn't appear in setup account.apk? I really want to used it. How to make it appear again..

Did you flash the BlurApps zip from recovery? That should automatically have added these.

Google account problem

Hey
I'm using Azure ROM with google apps, but I can't connect to my Google account. I always get a "no connection" message, or something like that, but the internet connection works in all the other apps.
I had a similar problem on the stock ROM - the only app that worked was the browser (on 3G).
I don't care about the emails, I can use the email app for that, I just need the market. All the QR codes lead to the market
Maybe someone should suggest a good website where I can find a lot of apk's to download.
Anyone ?
btw which facebook app do you use ? I tried 2, but none of them works.

Reset the phone, same thing happened to me after i tried to install flash on my Legend! Google app saver .apk and install it with HTC Sync, and that'll save all your apps!
U mean factory reset ? It didn't work on the stock ROM, I don't think it would work now... did you have the same problem as me ?
What is Google app saver ? I didn't find no such thing.
btw I don't have HTC sync, because I don't use Windows and I don't use the HTC ROM anymore.

I meant to actually Google the word AppSaver!Here The factory reset fixed the Google apps problem, but i dont use Facebook but can't comment on that!
Yeah, I found it later. But I have all my apps installed on my SDcard so I don't think I need it.
Maybe I'll try factory reset, but I just downloaded a ton of .apk's so I don't really need it right now.
WTF ? I just did a factory reset and it WORKED. Thanks, dude.
Didn't work on the stock ROM.

Fix for Getting Google Contacts/Calendars Syncing (TNTLite)

Note: As of TNTLite 2.1.1 (a supplemental install to TNTLite 2.0), you no longer need to follow the instructions in this thread to get your Google Calendar and Contacts to sync with your tablet, because the Calendar and Contacts applications and the necessary sync files have now been included with the TNTLite supplemental. In order to get the sync working, though, you will need to wipe your user data in clockworkmod, so that you go through the Google account set-up process again. WIPING YOUR USER DATA IN CLOCKWORKMOD DELETES ALL INSTALLED APPS AND SETTINGS. Use Titanium Backup to backup your apps before doing this. (Data copied to the internal sdcard is not deleted in a data wipe.)
Go to this thread for the TNTLite download, and for more information:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004
******************************************
Old instructions, for pre-TNTLite 2.1.1:
This has been driving me insane for the past week--the gTablet with TNTLite was 90% of what I wanted, but the lack of a real sync with my Google contacts and calendar data has been gnawing at me. (The workaround of installing a Google account as a "Corporate" account in Contacts didn't work for me, because I have multiple Google calendars and that approach would only ever sync one.)
But I seem to have found out how to make it work! Alas, it requires a user data wipe, but to me at least it was worth it. Here's what I did.
* This was starting with TNTLite 2.02 along with the Tegra Fix *
First off, I backed up everything with Titanium Backup and also cwm. (You'll definitely want Clockwork Mod installed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004)
Get the GApps v2 file, and copy it as an update.zip to your /sdcard: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842590
Shut down, and boot into Clockwork Mod.
Wipe cache. Don't reboot.
Clear user data/factory reset. Don't reboot.
Install the Gapps v2 update.zip that you copied to /sdcard.
Reboot.
Skip the Google sign-in.
Set up your Wi-Fi.
Reboot.
Launch Gmail.
Add your Google Account (Accounts / Add Account). Break into a big smile when you see Contacts and Calendar show up as a sync option in addition to Gmail. Let them sync. It may take a while.
If you have a Google Apps account too, while still in Gmail, go back to Accounts and then Add Account, and add your Google Apps account. Break into an even bigger smile when you see Contacts and Calendar show up as a sync option. Let them sync. Go into the Contacts app, and verify that your contacts are all there. (You can use the Display options to show/hide them.)
[Strangely enough, at this point, I found out that the Calendar app was nowhere to be found on my tablet. Probably due to my screwing around before I started trying this out. I extracted calendar.apk from the TNTLite 2.00 update.zip, copied it to my /sdcard, and launched it. It installed, and there were allllll of my calendars. This probably won't be an issue for you.]
If you go into the Contacts app, you'll see under Add New Account that "Google" now appears, as does "Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync" (instead of just "Corporate").
At this point, I took a deep breath and did the Market Fix (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845175), worried that it might somehow mess with the settings. Rebooted.
And my many calendars and all my contacts are still there, and the correct Account/Sync options are still in place as well.
Now I have to start reinstalling everything (thank you, Titanium Backup), but I've got the last piece of my gTablet puzzle.
Hope this helps other folks like me who've had this problem. It seems that the most important thing is to have the Gapps files already in place when you do the initial user setup under TNTLite. Since Gapps has an older version of Google Maps (and Street View), you'll want to update both of those in the Market. And then you'll need to do the Flash install, etc. etc.
(Dec. 1 update)
Note: If you install a supplemental update to TNTLite after doing this fix (i.e., installing 2.0.4), you're going to get the TNT Calendar back, overwriting the Google Calendar. Your data will still be there, and syncing will still work, but you'll have the less-professional-looking TNT Calendar interface. You can install Touch Pro Beta from the Market for a nicer replacement calendar.
Nice work, and well done!
How is the calendar from the GApps v2 file? Is it stock Google?

Thanks! There actually isn't a calendar in the GApps v2 file, now that I look. It's just the SyncAdapter.apk. (Ditto for the Contacts.) So actually the problem with my not having the calendar.apk may just have been from when I was screwing around trying to get things to work before I started all of this. A clean TNTLite 2.0 install followed immediately by the instructions above will probably have a calendar.apk file with no problem.
Seems we only need a few of the apks in the update to get this running. Maybe get with Roebeet to add those to tnt lite or as a supliment.

Yes, it might work to have just the two Google*SyncAdapter.apk files included in the main TNTLite install (not a supplement). They need to be there during the initial setup.

You can get them out of the Gapps update.zip file, in the app subfolder (link to the file is in the original post). They would go in /system/app, but if you're not rooted, you're not going to be able to put them there. And I'm not altogether sure it would work this way, and you're still going to have to wipe your user data and cache to try. So you should just go ahead and install cwm--the link is in the OP. (You should have cwm installed anyway, even if you're not going to do this.)

Thanks. Just to be sure: which cache are you referring to?
When you speak of cache I'm thinking about settings>running application and then clear the cache of individual apps, but perhaps you're referring to something else. And if we're talking about the same thing: the app of which app?
I can confirm that this works great.

I don't use Exchange, so I don't have much advice, sorry to say. After the steps above, did you go into Contacts, Accounts, Add Accounts, and choose Microsoft Exchange Sync? Are you on TNTLite 2.0.2 or above, which returns to the TNT contacts and calendar apps that some people say work better with Exchange?
Also, a reminder that installing TNTLite 2.0.2 and above may cause your Google Calendar app (from 2.0 and GApps) to not work quite right, since 2.0.2+ reverts to the TNT calendar that the tablet came with. I just installed 2.0.4, and my calendar opens and the data is there, but I can't see any menus or change any views. I have calendar.apk from TNTLite saved in /sdcard, and I just launched/reinstalled, and I'm back to the regular Android/Google calendar. (Am trying to download Touch Calendar, but the market is sooooo slow on downloads tonight.)
Thank you!! Now this is a complete ROM.

After the steps above, I added an Exchange email account which automatically setup the same account in Contacts. I've verified that the Microsoft Exchange Sync is checked/enabled.
Application "Settings" is Force Closing often now. Will revert back to TNTLite 2.0.2 and play with this again later.
Thanks for the effort and I'll keep searching for an Exchange solution.

Pull it out of the TNTLite 2.0 update.zip, in the /app subfolder. Just put it somewhere on your SD card, and launch it.
I do have Settings FCs, but only when I'm closing Settings, after I'm done using it, so I haven't minded.
Argh! Didn't see this until just now -- 2.0.5???? Oh my.
Also, Touch Calendar (beta) in the market is a pretty sweet calendar display app. Not sure if you need the Google calendar apk installed as well, but give it a look. Does a great job displaying lots of entries from lots of calendars, with pinch-zoom for changing views.

I do think it would be a good addition, if you're not worn out. The real Google calendar/contact sync is a big plus, though I know you've said you don't use it.

[Q] Please help.

I'm a complete noob when it comes to ROMs / Apps / Themes, basically smart phones in general. Just got a Droid X for Christmas.
Thinking of using a ROM like Gummyjar2.5 or Rubix(don't know best version) because they seem to be very popular here. Anyone have any links for tutorials on installing either / both? And opinions to which would be better for a total noob? I want my phone to run faster / use less battery but still look pretty flashy.
As for themes, does anyone know where I can go to check out themes for the said two ROMs?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Roms are a mattet of how each person likes the feel of it for themselves. Right now, gummyjar 2.5, rubix 1.9.5, and liberty 1.0 are the usual choices. If you still want blur elements like you have it right now, then I suggest zapX bazinga, or apex.
All the roms run very well, but like I said, try out each. You will want to root the phone using z4root (google for it vers 1.3.0)
Then you will want to download droidx bootstrap. This will allow you to backup/restore your phone. It is also used to install the *.zip themes and ROMs.
As for themes, I recommend any of Bignadad's themes. He is the most thorough as far as complete images for framework and apps as well! Make sure that the theme you pick is compatible for any ROM you choose to use.
When I get back to a computer instead of my phone I can try and help out more =)
Ps... Look at the thread for each ROM/theme to see what you like and they will almost always include install instructions!
Hope this helps! Post back if you have more questions, I'm more than happy to help!

Ok, to start with.. No worries, we all had a point where we knew nothing about this stuff!
Blur is an "interface add-on" that motorola has added to their phones. If you were to look at the Nexus One or Nexus S, these two phones both have a stock version of android without Motorola Blur or HTC Sense on them. Sense and Blur are modifications of system applications and the user interface... Some people really like these interfaces, but most people are against it in the Android forums because they are mostly wanting performance (which is usually degraded by Sense or Blur).
Most of the ROM's now strip out the blur components (yay for our devs!) and that is what GummyJar, Liberty, and Rubix do. If you want a ROM with blur components, I would suggest using Apex or ZapX Bazinga.
2. That z4root and backup thing you said to download. Do I do that with my phone and just launch them? Or?
I have attached the z4root and droid X bootstrap .apks. What you need to do is copy these to your phone's sdcard. Then go to Settings-->Applications--> Check the Unknown sources check box. While you're at it press on the development section as well. Then check the USB debugging box.
You can then install these using a File manager such as Astro (free on the market) by opening Astro File Manager, and then browsing to the .apk file on your sdcard.
To root your phone after installing z4root, launch the app from your applications list, and then click permanent root. It will take a while (potentially) and then your phone will reboot and be rooted.
After that, then go to Astro and browse for the bootstrap apk and install that. This is what allows you to backup/restore. After that app installs, you will be prompted for superuser rights, hit yes.
Then open Droid X bootstrapper. You will want to click the top option, as that hijacks the boot process. Then reboot recovery will allow you to go to the backup/restore mode.
Check out this link: droid X wiki. I have to go take care of some stuff, but will add another post with some stuff.
3. Where do I find the threads for the specific ROMs / Themes?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=687
Use this link. This is the general Droid X thread page. The general section is just mostly questions and "general" stuff for the Droid X. The themes sections has themes.. lol and the android development has the ROMs.
Just read through the different threads and post back if you have questions.
So what does rooting my phone do? I get what backup / restore is, but not that.
This z4 is taking forever. -_-
So I went to sleep while z4 did its magic and it wasn't running when I woke up. How would I know it x completed?

Reboot your phone, re-run the Z4root program (phone will reboot) and after you should have a GREY Super User icon in your app drawer.
Hope this helps.
That worked, man. Thanks! So I have Bootstrap, z4 and ROM manager all ready. Now I just need to get a ROM and find one that has a slick THEME.
How do you like Liberty, Sys? I saw it was just something you put over the top of Gummyjar, which was probably the one I was going to go with if Bignadad (by the way, I don't know where to find his themes. =/) had a cool theme for it. Have you tried Rubix?
EDIT: I love Swype. Are these ROMs going to take it away from me? =P
I think many will agree that Liberty 1.0 seems to be the sweetest right about now..... try it out.
Got Liberty up successfully, but don't know how to retrieve my contacts.
hey i have one question, when z4 is done and you run bootstrap, the phone is empty of apps and contacts...and you have to do a backup from somewhere correct?

So you already have loaded liberty? Just trying to make sure I have my details straight. If you followed the install instructions and wiped data and cache then yes you will need to restore apps from titanium backup or whatever means you may have backed up your apps.
If you load a ROM such as liberty, then you will not want to use bootstrap to restore. Bootstrap completely backs up your entire phone state, not just your apps. Sorry if I misinterpretted any part of your message

So I've loaded Liberty, but can't "Link" facebook contacts to their phone numbers. Is there some option I need to enable to do this? Or should I go back to vanilla? That's a convenience I don't really intend to do without.

Is facebook installed on your phone? If not install it from the market and the initial setup should ask you if you want to set up facebook sync.
If facebook is installed to go phone settings->accounts and sync. Your facebook account should show up there and you can setup sync options.

Yeah, I have no problem with having my Facebook contacts in my contacts list, but I used to be able to link them with their phone contact. Meaning if I had a person's phone number, I could link it with their Facebook profile so their phone number would display their facebook default pic and latest status. Now, when I try to edit facebook contacts and add a number to them, it says I can't do that with this device.

Also, I need a cool theme. Reg Lib is too boring. ;]

Sorry, slightly confused by your post... But I think I may have what you mean.
If you want to go back to vanilla (original phone condition) then you will need to sbf if you didn't take a backup before installing Liberty. If you did take backup using Boostrap, then I would recommend just restoring your backup.
If you didn't create a backup before... create a backup now with liberty installed in case you need a place to come back to for reference. Nandroid backups are your friend...
I'm not quite sure what you mean by vanilla, so I may be way off here. Feel free to add in some more details please =)
Yeah I mean I want to go to the completely original phone setup. I did do a bootstrap save or whatever, but bootstrap isn't installed. If I reinstall does it still have my vanilla Droid saved?
Also, how would I go about switching back to it? Navigating those menus makes me nervous.... Haha.
I'd go into Bootstrapper -- > Reboot Recovery... then what?

Okay... So if you have taken a backup before you did your install of Liberty (or any other ROM/Theme) then yes, it should still be saved on your SDcard actually. Bootstrapper creates a folder on your sdcard called "clockworkmod". Inside of that folder, there should be two more folders: backup and download. Inside of the backup folder, you should see a folder titled in a similar manner:
2010-09-10.04.03.48 (yyyy-mm-dd-hh.mm.IDK what the rest is.. LOL)
But regardless, this is what you should see. If you re-install the bootstrap program, then when you go reboot recover--> backup and restore--> restore, you should see this folder/option. You will use the volume up and down buttons to move the cursor up and down. Pressing the camera button (red) will select the highlighted option. You can use the back arrow key or power button to go up a level in the menus.
If this doesn't work, you can always SBF the phone (this takes the phone back to the complete original condition out of the box). It is slightly scary to do the first time (at least for me it was...), but I have probably done it at least 10 times now.
Let me know if the bootstrap backup works. Take note that you will lose any apps/texts on your phone that you now have unless you use an app like titanium backup to backup your apps, and an SMS backup app to save your text messages. The bootstrap backup takes you back to the exact condition the phone was in when you took the backup.
Lemme know if this works out for you! Good luck!

[Q] Copy Contacts App from one rom to another

Can some one shed a light on how to get contacts app from TyphooN_CM7_v3.6.4-MAGLDR TO NexusHD2-Gingerbread_V3.0_NAND_(Android-2.3.5) Rom. I have extracted and copied:\
1. contacts.apk
2. contactsprovider.apk
3. GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk
from First rom to another.
When phone boots up, there is a message of force close comes up on screen every 5 or so seconds.
I shall be very thankfull if some one find a cure for this.
Why i need contacts from lastest nightly: Because In latest nightly we can edit events like birthdays, etc.
My Phone: HD2 EU
Rom: NexusHD2-Gingerbread_V3.0_NAND_(Android-2.3.5)------- Working Great
i dont think its case of just copying the files and expect them to work, you probably will find there are other depencies that the files need, why not just change roms?
All I have ever done when installing a new ROM is log in to the Market with my gmail account, and my contacts synchronise from there?
This has been the case with all Sense/CM7 and MIUI ROM's that I have tried.

Cleaner than "clean ec07" ?

I love my Continuum.
But... it is so much "noisier" than all other Android phones that I tried!
By "noisier", I mean constant bombardment of the system log by all the applications that run there and, most annoyingly, random interruption by unsolicited notifications, messages, RSS, etc.
This gets in the way of certain applications that I run in the foreground, so I tried an application called "Android Assistant" to help kill unneeded applications/services on boot. It doesn't help, as the system seems not to allow killing certain processes.
Is there a Continuum ROM that's cleaner than the latest ec07?
Is there a CyanogenMod ROM for the Continuum?
Frankly, I prefer keeping the existing ROM and only install a Market application that kills on boot all the the applications that I don't need (e.g. Market, Gmail, Corporate Email, etc.), but is there such an application that really works?
Thanks!
Titaniumbackup or a root tool to uninstall bloat / apps u don't use. That's short of setting up a kitchen and cooking ur own rom.

My ROM is less bloated, but it still has like Gmail for example
I enjoy a very minimulistic device with very little clutter and apps.. I am currently working on a rom based on nuckin's, with a few tweeks, apks removed and some added to my liking. i am currently flashing the first test. Hopefully with a day or two, or even possibly tonight if it doesn't get to late i will post it up in a beta form.

Good memory!
I actually took a look at TIB and the task of deciding which application or service to uninstall looks daunting.
This is especially scary when I am prompted by the following warning when I try to uninstall via TIB:
Some system packages are needed for your phone to work properly. If you un-install the wrong package, it's your fault and you may need to reinstall your ROM !

How do I know up front which system packages I can uninstall? For example, if I uninstall Gmail, will the Market stop working?
For example, I uninstalled a few applications that I don't need and now I am getting periodic "Force close" messages for the following:
hiddenmenu - com.android.hiddenmenu
Messaging - com.android.mms
What is "hiddenmenu"?
I am attaching a text file listing all currently installed APKs. If you could provide tips which ones must absolutely remain on the phone, that would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
