I just installed UCKJ3 non rooted on my AT&T Cappy and I was wondering if this is a known issue, I set my wallpaper and if I reboot the phone it defaults back to the bubbles live wallpaper regardless of what or how I set it.
I used the stock odin package (with BL as I was coming from 2.2) from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300843
before I did this I did a factory reset, cleared cashe etc. Not a big deal but quite annoying to say the least.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance and I hope this is in the right forum

Maybe it should be in q and a forum, but anyway, is you're new wallpaperon your external sd card?
I had the same thing happen except the live wallpaper I had set was getting reverted to the stock one each reboot. I fixed it by moving the live wallpaper off the sd card.

What sort of set up are you running there?
Stock, non-rooted N1? Or did you upgrade to FroYo over an existing install using Paul's zip? Any applications installed? When is the phone freezing?
Would love to help, but I think we're going to need a little bit more information from you first.

Previously rooted N1 back to stock rom prior installing froyo from Paul's direct install file for rooted N1 because I lacked stock recovery image.
Basic apps installed like ebuddy news apps etc. didn't install anything different from old install.
Like I mentioned phone stalls in while in sleep mode. Need to pull battery. Cannot soft or hard reset phone.
Ive been reading a lot on xda and didnt notice this occurring in pther phones thats y i decided to open a new thread.
Any help is appreciated thanks!

Did you wipe? If not, usually a wipe helps. I wiped and have not had a single issue of FC...Freezing or anything. I went from Enom to Wipe to Paul's Zip with Radio.
I have the same problem. Until now the screen stayed black after the other party ended the call. Had to pull battery 3 times.
Problem exists even after reflashing, wiping and clearing storage.
Im om pre-rooted frf50 from paul. Gonna try with an older radio..

does it work?
Im having similar issues with my 2.2 installation. I have it installed on my wife's non-rooted N1.
Not just that but the market is not even usable. Even if I clear cache.
Again, her phone is not rooted, I wipped everything from her phone then applied Froyo and its been a nightmare. Her phone isn't even stable enough to use and I cant seem to figure it out.
I need to find a way back to 2.1 without having to root her phone. She is adamant about me not doing that to her phone even though Ive rooted all the phones I've ever used with no issues.
I was having the same problem on my N1. Started suddenly two days after the manual upgrade to 2.2. The phone would either freeze to a black screen or sometimes the live wallpaper would continue but the phone was unresponsive even to the power button. Needed to pull the battery to restart.
It stopped after I:
* Turned off live wallpaper
* Uninstalled LauncherPro Beta
* Removed the Pure Calender Widget (was broken after 2.2 update anyway)
* Charged the battery (was down to below 10% when it started happening repeatedly).
Anyone one of them (or none of them) could have been the culprit. My guess it was one of the last two (PureCalender or battery) but haven't had time to troubleshoot it. Try some of these and see if it helps.
Ive tried all that on her phone. I just wiped it again completely and re flashed just in case that was the issue. Phone still had all the issues described in this thread.
I wiped the sd card, wiped all previous system files via the stock recovery and re flashed the update zip. You cant get anymore clean than that and its still so unstable the phone its unusable. I have to either hope soft booting works or pull the battery as a last ditch.
Is there any way I could downgrade her phone to 2.1 without rooting? I tried the shipping rom in the sticky above but it seems that isn't totally legit for stock use because the phone doesn't like how its signed.
I guess I could call google/htc tomorrow but who knows where that'll get me. The only bonus iud that her phone is not rooted so she didn't really have her warranty voided.

I was worried if I was the only one with this problem. Phone improved today (3rd day of using) but I didn't do anything to it. Only hanged once when someone called. Hanged on calling in screen and had to pull battery.
Only once compared to 7 times yesterday!

Yes until now it does. Sometimes the power button is reacting a little late but i havent had to pull the battery yet with the older radio.
You might want to download it again and flash that to see if you had a corrupt download. First copy all data from the sd and partition it. Just make everything fat. I havent used the stock recovery in ages so I cant recall if you can partition from there, if you cant, do it on the pc. Wipe everything that the stock recovery can wipe. Then try to flash your new download of the update. You can do this fairly quickly and its worth a try before you go through the process of reverting to 2.1.

I'll give this a shot when I get home from work. I'll report back on if it works or not. Thanks for the idea.
Interesting, not that I'm complaining, but after a few days of using 2.2 it seems more stable now....? haven't had any freezes today...yet.
Power button response also getting better.

Older radios are not 100% compatible.
I recently flashed DamageControl v2.09.01 | Final Sprint RUU, Deodexed | Final Hero build. I also flashed live wallpaper to the phone. (Phone: HTC Hero)
I now cannot change any of my wallpapers.
I have since gone back to DamageControl v2.08
Its the same dark tunnel image on the background. No matter what I use, whether it be the HTC back grounds or my own personal ones, it will not show up as a background.
Each time I flashed the new rom, I wiped everything except for the SD card (Davlik, ext3, etc was wiped)
I am using titanium backup to restore the app and programs the phone.
HELP!!!
Its driving me nuts.
Can't say I have this issue. Try flashing the ROM without the live wallpapers and tell if it still happens

I juat did that actually, I didnt flash the lw this time around. But Im still stuck with the one background.
Anyone have anything to say??
may have to find the LWP picker APK laying around here somewhere and install it its own. See if that helps.
Maybe clear the cache for Sense?

Ohhhhh... DONT use the titanium backup to restore the apps. it'll cause all sorts of conflicts. just reinstall your programs manually and take it on the chin

Ok, so i just flashed this rom and so far so good, no problems flashing, which i am surprised as this is the first time i've done this.
The only issue i have is that there is no email app. I guess i should of gone into the kitchen and got that, but i was overwhelmed and just plain forgot.
Is there anyway that i can get that without having to reflash the rom completely?
Thanks
Sure. Just download the zip from the kitchen. Reboot into recovery and flash the zip. Any of the add-ons can be flashed. You don't have to reflash the rom again.

Hey thanks. I thought by adding those it would include the complete rom also. I'll give it a try.
Ok so i went to the kitchen and got what i needed. It all seemed to work properly except the Samsung keyboard. I really don't like theis roms keyboard. I like the colors and stuff. Should i try and reinstall that or does that go hand in hand with Samsung mms apk too?
I'm not sure about that. There's a "Serendipity Q&A" thread at the Captivate Q&A section. You'll get a quick reply there.

Can't mount SD with serendipity 5.12
I have a Samsung Galaxy S Captivate.
I'm just starting to flash roms and I stumbled upon this old version of this ROM and I really like it. I would like to flash the version 6.2, but I'm have a dilemma.
My computer is not recognizing my phone at all. I'm not able to mount my SD card onto my computer so I can transfer files. I do have an external SD and I'm gnna try to put it on there and then use it to transfer it to the internal SD and then flash it. (that is if I find my mini SD adapter thing...)
Can anyone help me? please.
May have to get the usb drivers.

Hi all
This is my first post so please excuse my ignorance and point me in the right direction if I'm in the wrong area. I will try to be as clear as possible.
I have a stock N1 At&T unlocked....
I kept running out of memory (low mem warning) so I rooted my phone.
Using App2sd I moved as many as my apps to sd card ...problem solved.
In an attempt to perhaps gain quicker boots I froze a few apps including the stock launcher as I was using go launcher.. No issues or problems.
However... My problem came when I moved Go launcher to the sd card to gain space....
Now the phone wont boot , it just continually shows the animated "x" nexus logo.
My reasoning is, now the phone cant load the "frozen" stock launcher and cant find Go launcher for booting on the sd card , so It's stuck in a searching cycle.
Question.. Is there a non destructive way to recover from this? I have TiTanium Bkup free which I backed up 2 days ago.
If I do a "recovery" will it un root my phone and unfreeze my apps?
Can I unfreeze my stock launcher from boot mode?
I can seem to find any thread that comes close apart from doing a recovery
I thank you all in advance for your time and your patience in this matter..
I would love your help and advice.
Just flash your ROM again without doing a full wipe. Reinstall apps2sd. All your apps and data should be still there.

Thank you
Thank you cpm !!
Again excusing my ignorance....
When you mean "flash" do you mean to use the restore feature on power up?
My next step after this was to flash a CM9 ics rom for a N1 I see U are using one... are there any issues ? could you give me the link?
Again many thanks for you assistance.... much appreciated
I will let you know how it goes
If you want CM9 then look at BCM ROM in the Dev forum. You can download it there.
Only thing not working is video camera. You can take pics, but not video. Might be sorted over time. Otherwise a very stable ROM.
Note you'll also have to install Blackrose to repartition your phone.

I assume I have broken something when tinkering as this is my first smartphone (a few months old) and my first custom rom.
I downloaded and flashed Razodroid 2.5 yesterday.
I installed link2sd and got all my apps on.
The phone is lightning fast compared to the stock rom with link2sd.
I messed with the boot animation - wanted apple vs android. The one put in was far too big and when I got to the lock screen the screen was frozen. I used root explorer to put the bootanimation.zip where the current one was.
I rang the phone and everything started again. I swapped the animation back out and I still have the same problem.
I had deleted the modded touch wiz and experia launcher as I preferred holo launcher.
I'm not sure if something I have done can be undone or do I have to flash and start all over again.
Like a fool I didn't take a nandroid backup before making a mess of things.
Any help much appreciated.
Download odin, download a firmware from samfirmware, save your data and go back to stock rom. If you need a guide look around in the general section.

Thanks,
I was afraid of that.
I did use rafaels script to backup the phone in odin format before flashing razodroid so at least I have something - I just hadn't backed up before messing with razodroid

The backup I took after messing up the bootanimation allowed me to restore my apps etc after reflashing razodroid (after going through stock rom as advised above.
Thanks for the help
Worked out that I should have made Holo launcher system before I deleted the other launchers. The phone seems to refuse to load up the apps on the sd card without an active launcher present. Holo launcher on sd card no use. Phoning the phone seemed to wake it up and it would load Holo launcher. Learned the importance of a wee backup anyway.
Update; backed up again and deleted the other launchers and phone working with holo launcher as a system app.
