I currently have about 30 programs installed on my mobile. I would like to simplify the installation process of these after a Hardreset. Is it possible to mrge them into one single Cab which will install all of the applications? Or will they then show up as only one item in the software list if I do this?

no you can't !
U can use a back up utility like sprite(Free with THD don't know about Xperia) or resco backup. Create a backup after installing all the apps U need and save it as a executable backup or as a back up set on the card. u can copy it in ur desktop also. Now anytime after a hard reset u can install those backed up apps without any other data. of course it may not work if U flash a new ROM etc.
One thing you can try is to look to see how UC works and set your cabs up that way..
You can then run it manually, copy sdconfig to /windows and run it. this way you should be able to manually run UC after installing any rom (even if it doesn't support it such as stock roms).

Im not a Cook so i dont really know how to 'cook' that thing to rom/device..
Just my 2cents, im very frustrated with re-installing all my apps everytime i upgrade to a newer version of rom. It's just pain in the ass.. Maybe the cookers can 'kindly' include the baby above in the rom. That's going to save the user alot of trouble..

main problem with cooking uc in is that it massively increases the amount of 'bugs' in a rom:
99% of the time they're down to 3rd party software and having stuff installed blindy makes things worse...
if you can get it running manually (after you've tested a new rom for a bit) then why not do that? it'll only take one click then...
I just got a Tilt 2 from ATT. One of the first anoying things I've noticed is that when I configured Windows Live, that I could not choose which folders to sync. Before, I could go into Hotmail (once I've configured in Windows Live) and then go to Menu --> Tools --> Manage Folders (I believe that was the option). From there I could select which folders I wanted to sync. Now, when I click on Menu, I don't see any option for this. So, I can only read the email in my inbox and I cannot read the email in Junk or any other folder.
If anyone knows a work around for this, I would appreciate it.
I had the same issue on my T-Mobile TP2 when I used the T-Mobile upgrade to 6.5. I made same request and someone told me to run the upgrade again. Oddly enough it worked. I don't know if you can find the ATT 6.5 ROM, but if you can, try to give that a shot or maybe even a hard reset.
I don't know why, but it did work for me.
Thank you. I think that I will use the homecooked ROM on this site. If I'm going to reimage this thing, I might as well be for an improvement.
Problem solved. I downloaded Windows Live services from Microsoft's website and installed it. Once the install finished I got all my old school options. Looks like the default one does not work.

You can use that link to download it to your phone, or PC first, either will work.
Another fix
If you turn off HTC Sense (or 3D flow, what ever you want to call it) then you can make these adjustments to Windows Live.
I didn't update my apps for about 2 weeks since I was more or less in a permanent network trouble. When I now try to update my apps, it's always said, the downloas are about to start, but they never do...
I am running froyo 2.2 and app 2 sd - no idea what's wront here...
hope somebody could help me out!
thx
Very occasionally my downloads stall and to fix it I generally:
1. Cancel all downloads
2. Check that I'm logged into Talk
3. Start the downloads again
This usually fixes it for me.
Regards,
Dave
I also had this from time to time and usually after a reboot it worked, but this time it already persists a while and the updates are getting more n more.I also thought that I started too many at once. But also a single one won't start...
By talk you mean gtalk? Why is that?
Thx
Essentially (and rather simplistically!), for many services, the OS uses the GTalk protocol to communicate with the device.
Regards,
Dave
Didn't know that. How do I check? if I click in the freak icon after a second I'm back on the desktop with that icon. Does that mean I was logged in?
Me too...I'm having problems to update my applications and when I click on Google Talk the application makes me return to Home
Any problems with Google servers???
Thanks
GTalk is working fine for me, so I suggest posting a logcat for the period when you attempt to sign into GTalk.
Regards,
Dave
I assume a logcat is a certain type of logfile? How do I generate this?
thx
If you have ADB setup on your PC, you can simply connect your phone via USB and type ADB LOGCAT in a command window (you need to have USB Debugging switched on). If you don't have that, you can download an app (e.g. aLogCat).

Dave

There's nothing to install on the phone, you just need to enable USB Debugging from the Development menu.

Right, i experienced exactly the same problem shortly after doing update to 2.2. I've read somewhere (if i find a link, i'll post it here) that update from 2.1 to 2.2 doesn't carry personal data and settings transfer very well.
Tryed restore to no luck.
My fix.
1.Format memory card first.
2. factory restore
3. format memory card again (in case it managed to back up my settings after 1st format and before restore)
4. factory restore (in case back up happend and it managed to restore my settings)
5. sign in to google ******@GOOGLEMAIL.com , even though my e-mail IS @gmail.com and it shows @gmail.com on the phone.
No problem since
Hope no 3 and 4 make sense to you.
Hope that helps.

As you can see i simplified procedure a lot.
still trying to figure with the ADB.
I am stuck with the USB drivers - can't find them in the download package as described
Finally, you need to install the USB drivers. Again, the instructions are present in the SDK guide as well, but here’s how you can do it. Please note that my device was a Samsung GT-i5700 Galaxy Lite, and since I had Samsung drivers already installed, this didn’t happen to me. The procedure I am describing here is theoretical and taken from the SDK manual.
The drivers for both x86 and x64 systems are present in the SDK, under <sdk>\usb_driver\x86 and <sdk>\usb_driver\x64, respectively.

I appreciate your help - but I'd really loive to check within the logfiles what's exactely wrong, dause that could trace the root and help others instead of just starting all over.
I'm just surprised that there's little response out here...
So, I heard some while a go that it is possible to have flash in GIO. Me being a totally helpless with tech I asked my friend of a friend of a friends cousin to ROOT my phone. Well that went smoothly, I did not get flash on my mobile´s websites but instead I can´t connect my Gio to PC via USB... NUTS!
And "the Friend" can´t help me no longer...
So here are the problems, I can´t connect to PC, no matter what. Tried de-buggin, un-installed drivers <-> installed drivers. Nothing...
Also I have that app I don´t really want ( or do I?), called SuperSU which is´nt working, says something about "binary needs to update -> Fail". How the h*ll i´m gonna get rid of that? Is that app that lost my USB-connection? Did I do it?
So could some one please tell me, 1) How to remove SuperSU-app or how to fix it (I you think that I should have it). 2) Any ideas how to solve USB-issue. 3) If I need to install any app´s, softwares and so on, links would be great. Working ones...
Here´s some specs from my phone, GT-S5660, Android ver. 2.3.6, "somethingsomething" S5660XXKT6, Core(?) 2.6.35.7-perf-CL1006648, "mumbojumbo" GIGERBREAD.XXKTI. SuperSU v0.98
Ask for more information if you need it, i´ll try to explain the best I can, english is´nt my language. Me no enklish, me finnish.
... Is it possible to have flash on GIO?
superSU is the app that gives away root acces to apps and to the system.
you need to use wifi or 3G and update the binairy
for usb, make sure you fully disabled Kies and killed it with the task manager

Thanks for reply. SuperSU won´t update, not on wifi or 3G. Just says "update failed".
I have deleted Kies from laptop, cleaned registry, even removed all usb-drivers then restarted laptop(did that with WIN7 an XP-PRO), yell´ed at my neighbours and blamed the cat.
Still no connection, I can connect NOKIA with usb-cable, the cable recharges my Gio but no luck with connecting... I quess that damn thing is broken.
I´ll focus now on removing that superSU, which will be a weeks job at my skills...
Thanks anyway.

Yes, it´s the cable that came with Gio. Can´t find Nokia´s cable so I could try that one. How do I check that if my phone has a custom rom that is´nt suitable or something like that. I really don´t know what that friend of my did to my phone, BUT the problem occured after his I´ll have your phone going like Räikkönen in Abu Dhabi-tuneup.
Really i think u should unroot it if u think root cause this problem.

Just tried that one, correct me if I´m wrong but unrooting is done by using unroot.zip (the one for superSU)? because that did´nt do the trick. For now I have done unroot.zip, wipe all data from phone (to factory re-set or whatcamacallit), boot-> voilá, theres that superSu still, version 0,98 if I recall.
I know that the bigges problem is in front my laptop´s screen, AKA my face, but as I earlier stated, me no computers.
I wish someone would make an app that removes all of these root-thingies and gives you a free nokia 3310
Thanks for reply, I won´t give up. There must be a simple answer for this. I just have to find it, or someone gives it me... Latter the better.
Ooh ooh, FYI, now I have these two app´s in my phone. SuperSU and Superuser, should I just quit fidling with my phone
...and now when I connect my phone to laptop, win7 gives every 3 sec. a message that one of the USB-hardwares is in errormode or something (I´m bad at traslating), it sounds like a intro of a Skrillex-song...

Yep, if you mean flash´ing is done by the the method of power+"that large button at bottom of my phone" and install update->unroot.zip then yes, app won´t go. Do I have a wrong file? Are those files spesific to a certain app? The trick is to get two superuser-apps is klick+klick+yes+fustration+install+hope+i don´t know. If I could I would give you better info... You mean that SuperSU (the one with cyan droid with red cape) and Superuser (the one with green droid and a eyepatch) shouldnt exist in a same phone? This is going straight to the twilightzone.
If you are confused, quess how I feel:laugh:
And either of them won´t update binary...
Oh, and yes, no ( ) I can´t uninstall either of those app, well from phone´s uninstall-section, butt that do´snt uninstall these apps for good... They are still there when I go to settings+apps+manage apps+all-> there they are.

SuperSU says " The SU binary needs to be updated. Continue?" -> "Installation failed!".
Busybox installer says my device is rooted
Root checker basic says Sorry! This device does not have proper root acces.
Got root says "Successfully located ´su´(superuser) on the device. Failed to obtain root privileges through ´su´.

i don't think it related with hardware, root is related with software (OS).
Right, here´s where I´m at. Now my phone IS rooted, it also have android 4.0.4 and CyanogenMod9 :laugh:
Done some fidling you see...
But still no connection via usb, I´m starting to think that it is a hardware-related problem. It does charge my phone, but no connection for file transfer.
So for now I will be happy for these settings.
Just need to get the a2sdgui working propely, can´t move apps from phone to sd.
Thanks for all of you´s for help :angel:

have look at this for Apps 2 sd on ICS
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590807&highlight=guide+ics
I think there's no problem with a rooted phone. You just need to do some homework before you started at it. Let me help you by explaining you some words and some help.
Root: when you root your phone you are able to flash roms on your phone.
Recovery mode: the menu that you get when you touch the on button + the OK button.
Flashing: installing a rom.
Rom: a kind of system on your phone. After rooting you can put these on your phone like iOS or
ICS.
When you are rooting your phone, you need a new recovery mode: Clockwork mode recovery. You can install this as the same way like flashing a rom. After that you can apply the update.zip package. Now your phone us rooted and when you reboot your phone you have a new app: SuperSU (or superuser) This app gives apps permission to other apps. Now you are able to flash any rom you want. Just google on: roms for /thenameofyourphone/ and you get enough results. Some roms are really great and are smooth and have a nice theme like android 4.1 or ios. Just download the rom. Put it on yor sd card. Go into recovery mode (clockwork mode recovery). Backup current rom, do a factory reset, wipe cache and install the rom. After flashing you must reboot your phone and ENJOY!
You can also download link2sd which allows you to move ALL you apps to your sd card. By the way. When you have rooted your phone it isn't bad but you have to read very much and after a while you will understand everything and you will enjoy your favourite rom.

Hello,
have anyone the Setup for the LG PC Suite 5.3.1820140626 ??
I can´t download it, everytime the Server connection fails...
hope anyone can help me...thx in advance
Did you by any chance use any of the old Flashtool hacks? if so they would have changed your hosts files to block PC Suite from updating itself.
I use purpledrake for rooting.
But my Host File is untouched. (Win8 original)
I'm on my second attempt right now, The first one failed for some unknown reason. I'll let you know if it's a success this time 'round.

Hey, I had SO MANY problems updating the PC suite to that version... I was on a windows 8.1 laptop and hadn't done anything regarding rooting or flashing .kdz files on that laptop and still got the message that the update couldn't be verified with the server. I'm using Bitdefender Internet Security on my laptop, so I tried turning it off and it still didn't work. So I finally decided to uninstall it, after that, I tried to do the update again and it worked I think that the uninstalling wasn't necesary, I probably had to change something in the firewall settings. So, you should check if you are using a similar program that is causing an issue.
