I can't install Android 2.2 to my Milestone, using a computer running XP Pro SP 3. The installer runs for a minute, then shows a notepad file with this:
'check whether the specified hotfix exists in the target computer
strComputer = "."
Dim HotfixFound :HotfixFound = ""
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}! " _
[code]....
The hotfix it refers to is apparently a Vista Windows installer issue. I reinstalled windows installer just in case, and tried removing all Motorola related software from the computer then running the installer again.
I own a French Retail A953 Milestone 2 and I'm looking forward to android 2.3 update. So, after followed the thread [URL]and it's on ! The update is here.Unfortunately when trying to update my mobile using MSU the answer is "no new update availlable yet for your mobile"...I'm using A953 with Android 2.2.2 and the system version is Version.62.4.24.A953.Retail.en.FR.
Have been trying for days. Talked to Motorola. Useless. Everytime I try to install, no matter who's computer I use, I always get the same error: "Failed to uninstall previous Motorola Software Update". This error occurs almost instantly when I double click on the installation file. I have tried it with the phone plugged in via USB and without. I have tried it from my desktop, and from my laptop. Same result. Motorola told me to download it to my phone. That didn't work either. It must be something to do with the phone, but I can't figure out what. The phone currently has 2.1 update 1.
I am undecided between these two phones.I currently have a Nokia E71 but would like a bigger screen and bigger keyboard.My priorities are a good imap idle email client (I don't mind paying for Profimail), sync with google calendar and managing contact groups. I don't care about facebook integration, camera etc.It seems both phones would meet my requirements; other than size (the Milestone has a bigger screen but is thinner) what would you say are the main differences, pros and cons of the two phones, and of Symbian S60 5th edition vs Android 2 in general?
I've been trying to update it through guides on the internet and I keep getting the same error which is: "failed to verify whole-file signature"..The file is named update.zip (yes, i'm 100% sure it's not update. zip. zip).The file is in the root of the sd card. I can't figure out what's going wrong here.
I am currently resident in Beijing and just bought a new Atrix. The major problem I have is that China appears to block the installation of Android Market on phones and it is replaced with some crappy alternative which doesn't have many mainstream apps. So my question is, how can I install Android Market on my Atrix?Also - whilst I changed the language settings to English, many of the installed software is still in Chinese - for example maps, and Moto Navi gives instructions in Chinese too. Is it possible to change these too?Gmail etc is blocked too.
Trying to install Android update HTK55D via bluetooth connection with Motorola Photon. Update screen comes up and starts - download button is "greyed out" - but nothing else happens. Have let it go all night with no results... Have rebooted and get same results... Am on the road with no other internet connection available.
I was wondering if it is possible to install the android Spotify app on the MotoActv? Spotify lets you stream unlimited music for free (and be able to download the music for a small price a month). I don't have MP3-files on my computer, but with Spotify on my MotoActv, I could leave my mobile at home.
is there anything i can do to improve flash video playback? after the 2.2 update i was excited to be able to use flash on my phone, but video playback on it seems so bad that it's unwatchable.it's like a slideshow at best, and at worse i'm only getting one frame every thirty seconds or so. oddly enough the sound never skips or stutters at all.i've tried it over wifi and 3g. Internet videos in the native app and other non-flash streaming media seem to work perfectly.i'm using the stock browser with flash player 10.2.157.51 (the latest one available in the android market), and i've tried several different videos linked from m.flash.com
I updated my Milestone which is UAE version to Froyo yesterday after a long delay, was really excited all evening until i discovered two problems with my wifi.The Device does not connect to the corporate network as my office uses 802.1x EAP and there is no place to enter proxy where as my friends using samsung galaxy s (Froyo 2.2) connect to the network and browse using the wifi advanced settings to enter the proxy in their device.
I have a problem in my milestone. Im trying to update my milestone to froyo from eclair 2.1 update 1 via MSU (Motorola Software Update). But after some minute It restart with a blank screen then reboot to OS and MSU says update failed. My last resort is to flash it via RSDLITE but when im trying to get into bootloader it shows blank screen then reboot to OS. I cant enter to my bootloader.
I updated my Bravo to Froyo a month ago, while updating I recieved an error message (which I can't remember), since then the phone regurarly freeze and I always recieve a notification from the task manager saying that my CPU usage is 100%.....I tried hard resetting the phone several times but that was of no use.
Have a brand new install of Windows 7 64bit and a 6 month old Milestone 2 which has always succesfully connected to PC/Mac in USB mass storage mode, but when trying to connect to new Windows & PC the PC tries to install MTP drivers that fail.Solution is to select the failed device in device manager and manually install the driver selecting the device as a USB mass storage device and not the default MTP device.
After spending 2 hours on the forums and 2 hrs on motorola website, downloading the motorola software update and finding that the updater says that your phone is up to date with 2.1 (where as the motorola site says 2.2 is now available) and browsing thru unending discussions, I was unable to update my Motorola milestone to Android 2.2. I last week sent my phone to the service center to ask them to update it to 2.2, they returned the phone saying it is up to date.I am sick of removing applications and always worrying about the remaining ROM availability.

If the official version is not available in Dubai can someone tell me of a shop where I can get it updated, as I dont really understand the concept of rooting and stuff like that.
will it be possible to install android os instead of symbian s60 5th edition, if so how? it has got more apps and the apps provided in ovi store are not in good number as well.
I bought my Xperia X10 in Abu Dhabi, now I know that the Android Market is not available in the UAE for certain reasons, I am just hoping that someone might have found a way around this.I do not want to flash or root my phone.Isnt there any other way of installing the market manually?
Can I install something from android market via PC?I mean, I used USB to connect x8 with PC, then I install what I select from the PC to x8 Can I do it?
Would you recommend I follow this process? Furthermore I have a question about the stock android which would be installed. Is this considered the 'official' version of Android? I.e. will I be getting updates as soon as they roll out, similar to how it works on say a Nexus device? Or will I need to reinstall the whole OS everytime I need to update the OS?
I never used Android before this, having used BB and WP before this. Also, will the functionality on my phone remain the same? For example will the camera still make use of the laser autofocus? What functionality would be lost if I install stock? Would they be specific software features such as QMemo and knock code for example?
I have two Galaxy 5 phones - one downloaded and installed the AT&T update fine. The other downloaded the update, then rebooted to install, which it started to do, but five or so seconds into it, it stopped and went directly to the home page with no install. OF course, now I have to wait another 24 hours to re-try the download (and whoever came up with THAT i24-hour thing should be fired). Is there a way to just directly install what was downloaded without having to wait the half-hour or so it took to download?
