    Default I did a booboo - or may be not

    I uninstalled a program - audio analyzer (can't remember the proper name right now) and all the things in my phone memory got washed off - including the preloaded content from MTV and stuff, the games and stuff - luckily, al other things like drawing, messages and stuff are fine - I think there must have been a master reset - does anyone haev the built-in games (and the proper install procedures as I can't install those on the files.motorola.com site)?

    Default Re: I did a booboo - or may be not

    Ummm.... can someone help me out?

    The games that were in were:
    Evel Knievel
    Motorola Basketball 3D
    SWAT 1 and
    the MTV Matchmaker (which I don't want, as it's quite useless...)

    Plus, if possible, can you send me the MTV files as well as the original MOTO files which came in the "Preload" folder, and no, I don't want anything related with the Derek McDonald - don't like him!

    And - I guess here's a tip from my side - don't install the Audio analyzer - firstly, it doesn't work (atleast not on my E680), but if you have to install the program, don't uninstall it using Telnet - simply go thru the phone's hard disk, in the QTDownLoad folder - which might save you from doing a thing what I did (the readme told me to uninstall using telnet, which you should NOT do).

    u can do a 'Master Clear'. it will reset everything to the default as how u receive the phone in the first place.

    WARNING: Doing Master Clear, u can loss all ur contacts in phone, ur sms/mms and also all the save files in in ur phone memory. Try to do backup n also if can, remove ur mmc card when u do Master Clear.

    no, the readme says to first do a normal uninstall via the application manager, then telnet in to remove the files (or you could remove them via hard-drive access on the PC).
    Code:
    To completely uninstall the app first go through
    the application manager uninstall process, then telnet to the phone and
    do:
    
    rm -rf /diska/.system/QTDownLoad/audioanalyzer
    
    otherwise the next installation will go under ../QTDownLoad/audanalyzer2
    and the .sh script will not work.
    there is nothing different from telnetting in and doing the "rm" and removing the files via hard-drive access on a PC; in either case the application manager needs to know that the app is uninstalled so it doesn't go looking for non-existant files.

    i'm sorry the app didn't work for you, i guess it was not made clear that the reverse engineered ezx libs that many of the user-developed ezx apps are based on come from e680i/a780 and are sufficiently different from the e680 to cause run-time conflicts.

    has anyone had luck using available ezx dev kits to build apps for e680 libs rather than e680i/a780 ones?

    Thx Rp - and well - this is a word of caution for the others who haven't installed this - don't use telnet to uninstall, simply use the phone as a harddrive and delete the folder.

    Master reset - I wouldn't want to - I've already lost the games and the preloaded content - and if I had those - I would have never!

    Btw, does anyone have those preloaded contents?

    can you explain to me how these are different, i must be missing something and if there is a difference between removing/modifying files on the phone via telnet vs. USB-harddrive access (other than editors mucking things up with extra line-feeds,etc) i'd like to be as informed as possible.

    Frankly speaking, I don't know myself. There SHOULD not be a difference - but I followed the readme, and boom! I wish I knew.

    I've been using Telnet for not very long, but sorta managed to learn the basic commands - I don't know exactly how to telnet and everything, but simply follow the instructions provided here and there (and in this case, I followed the readme).

    I seriously wonder - maybe the commandline for removing the folder was slightly inaccurate - rendering the entire phone useless...or something. But to be on the safe side, I'd say use the PC.

    So does anyone else have those games?

    Oh - I'm on a mission to flash my E680 > E680i - 1) I DO get the Picsel viewer, right? 2) Are those games already installed during the flashing process?

    Thanks - though it was a little late. I had upgraded to the i that same night....thanks anyway.

    But now, I'm facing another problem - and since it's my thread, I thought I should stick with it :P

    I downloaded some games from the files.motorolafans.com - i.e. Penguin and some others. I can't install. IT says that the license is invalid/expired (Can't remember which message it was) and if I'd like to get a new one. I click "OK", and then it tells me to delete existing licenses because the memory is full - though it isn't. It doesn't show up any licenses to begin with!

    Am I doing something wrong?
