[Q] Broken Shortcuts?

So whenever I install an app to sd card (via froyo, not rooted) the image no longer shows up on the desktop screens. The links to the app still work but the image is not correct. Is there a solution?

You need to restart the launcher app in order for the icons to appear.
If you use LaucherPro, go to Preferences > Restart LauncherPro

im using ADW and i just restarted the phone and the icons are still not right

Did you wait for the SD to be verified before entering you PIN to unlock the SIM? If not, try doing that...
If it still doesn't work, go check in Settings > Applications if you can properly see the apps that have a faulty shortcut. If you can get their info there, try moving one back to the phone and see if this solves it.
If you can see the apps but not get their info (e.g. their name is weird like com.myapp.whatever), then I'm afraid I can't help you further. I had a similar problem like that and wasn't able to solve it either. In the end I just installed Cyanogen ROM which has been working great .

Nah they all work fine, the info is all there and the links still work. The only thing that is wrong is the icon does not show the apps image on the desktop it just shows the little android in a white box android.
Like this: (sample image not of my phone)
{
"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"
}
but on the desktop, I know the apps have icons. This only happens with apps that I have moved to SD card (again, through froyo, im not rooted)

Ah then it's not exactly what I had (lucky you ). Mine also had the android-icon, but when i clicked it said that the app was not installed .
Have you tried the moving back to phone option? Maybe if you move them back to the phone the icon will re-appear and then you could move them back to SD later

strange .., indeed
same problem here. , tried some possible solutions..,
it just only happend when i restart the phone

[Q] Can't see my apps in the Market (My Apps) when using Touchpad

I just put Android via CyanogenMod on my Touchpad. Everything looks nice and I linked my Google account but it's not listing the apps for my other device (Epic, currently NOT in use) to install on the Touchpad.
Any idea how I can merge the apps and get them on the Touchpad without having to manually process each one? I paid for some, so it would be a little inconvenient to have to pay again.
The screen I get, btw, looks 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"
}
Thanks!

I don't know if this is the reason or not, but I don't think the touchpad is a valid device for the market so it would be 'unknown'... maybe if you change the build.prop file like on the Xron rom so it could be identified... just a thought.
You could also try to back up your apps with Titanium, then transfer the files to the touchpad and do a manual install (i guess as long as the android version is the same, 2.3).

via Dropbox, you mean? Not sure there's an expansion slot for the TouchPad.
How do you get one's Titanium Backup pro license on the device if you can't get an SD card in it?

so... does anyone know how to get Titanium Backup working on the Touchpad?

Did you install the market fix for cm7? The xron build has the fix built in and changes the build prop for better app compatibility. You can check it out on the xda touchpad development forum.

Yes, the Touchpad is up to date. However, I'm still trying to ascertain if Titanium Online Backup even works with a Touchpad given the need for an SD card.
I guess since I paid, I could just ask directly for support, but I'm surprised that nobody else seems to use TI on the TouchPad. Really?

Yes, TI Backup works with the touchpad. The internal storage is treated as an sd card and the space is shared by webOS and android.

This is a ROM issue flash different one or inform the rom chef about the issue so he could fix it.
It's some incorrect permission errors that's causing it.

Was this issue fixed? I'm experiencing the same problem using LewaOS5. Other apps install fine, but only XDA app is giving problems.
EDIT: Stepped away from LewaOs, problem is gone...

[Q] Swap External SD w Internal (Xperia V)

I think I saw a post with the solution but I can't find it anymore. I really want to play good hd games but those are huge in size 2-3 GB per games. Is there any way I could swap my external sd card with my internal so that when I install games and apps all the data files goes into external sd card? or maybe after I install the game in phone memory I could transfer it to external sd card without any problem? I searched for it but couldn't find anything that will solve the properly without any problem.

The SDExtswap thread was removed since it didnt work properly.
There were just as many Xperia V's it didnt work on as where it did work.
Mine were in the group where it didnt work.
Hopefully someone knows a proper way to do it. I'm very interested aswell.
Not because of HD-games, but because I usually sync my spotify-playlists, and they are huge.

not even any way to successfully transfer game data to externalsdcard after I install the game normally on phone memory? that's sad. I hate sony's 3 way sdcard system. first device memory then there is internal memory and external and then when I connect it with cable I only have access to 1.70gb and external sd

you can disable internal memory :
active init.d (by pimp my rom)
and install Smanager !
copy this : http://db.tt/Bn1IIvEE in init.d folder
and run that script with Smanager
my english is terrible ! if some one could male a topic for all !
sorry for my bad english :|

ISETool.exe and all IsolatedStorage Explorer Tools suddently stopped working -> "Smar

ISETool.exe and all IsolatedStorage Explorer Tools suddently stopped working -> "Smar
am currently on the edge of madness with regards to the IsolatedStorage Explorer Tools. I've been using http://isostorespy.codeplex.com/ for month now without any problems but today it just suddently stopped working. After a bit of research i found that the command line version "ISETool.exe" also crashes without any explanation (see Screenshot)

I am using Windows 8.1 Pro x64. Does anyone know what the **** is going on with this and how i can fix it?

Did you upgrade your phone to WP8.1 or is it still on an 8.0 version? Have you tried reinstalling (or installing a newer copy of) the WP SDK?
Also, I can't translate the exception message, so I really don't know what the problem is aside from the self-explanatory nature of a "DeviceNotFoundException". Can you see the device with other tools (XapDeploy, WPPT, etc.) and for that matter does it show up in Explorer?

Hey,
thank you for your reply. I am running WP8.0 and haven't upgraded yet. Repairing my Visual Studio 12 SDK didn't help, i am currently trying to install the 2013 version.
> Can you see the device with other tools (XapDeploy, WPPT, etc.) and for that matter does it show up in Explorer?
Yes it shows in the explorer and i can use it to run/debug my applications, Only getting access to iso storage doesn't help

I'm getting similar errors too. After a while I just started using Windows Phone Power Tools, it can do the same and it works for me..

Very odd. WPPT uses the same APIs as ISETool and (presumably, though I haven't checked) isostorespy. Hope it works for you, in the mean time I am not sure what the solution is.
