[myTouch 3G Slide General] tlytkine:
Thanks...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] agentg1001:
You could try drowning-child's kernel, it goes up to 960 (im stable @ 921), but smartass and wifi doesnt work (cm7 nightly problems i believe).
[myTouch 3G Slide General] tlytkine:
Can u give a link please?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] scottb23:
I have mytouch slide. Running cm7 nightlies #36. I am overclocked wit setcpu at 245/825. It is extremely fast and stable. It will go past 825. I was just wandering is anyone else with mtslide overclocking past 800? And is it stable?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Wagedroid:
I've overclocked my slide at 864 since cm6. No problems here.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] agentg1001:
Running 902 mhz totally stable and 921 mhz w/ a few random reboots here and there

[Desire HD General] extreme22:
ok when i shut down my phone and plug it in to charge it boots into clock work recovery every freakin single time, do you know what is causing this
[Desire HD General] nickhammond121:
This has been answered several times. It is clockwork causing the problem. When turned off and charging the DHD boots into a reduced function recovery which allows the LED to light up, clockwork doesn't have this so it boots fully into recovery.
[Thunderbolt General] pistolpete_21:
Anyone know of a way to change the system font yet? Can you use update.zip after rooting and installing CW recovery?
[Thunderbolt General] TNS201:
Make a backup in CW Recovery before you do anything.

You can try someones font zip file but it has to be made for the new CW recovery

You can also do this

Get the fonts from the zip file you want they end with *.ttf

In the directory where you have ADB make a folder named fonts and put all the *.ttf there that you are copying over

Reboot to CW Recovery

Then open a command prompt from that directory and at the prompt enter the command

adb push fonts /system/fonts/

adb reboot
[Thunderbolt General] pistolpete_21:
Thanks for the reply. I tried to copy and paste with root explorer, but got hung on the "thunderstorm screen" on reboot. Doing a restore now, then I'll try to adb push it.
[Thunderbolt General] pistolpete_21:
update.zip failed.

adb pushed each .ttf file separately and it worked, thank you.
[Thunderbolt General] TNS201:
You dont have to push each one separately.

Extract them to a folder in the directory where adb is and call it fonts

c:\adb\tools\fonts\

then do

adb push fonts /system/fonts/

it will push the whole directory and you don't have to enter each file name.
[Thunderbolt General] justreboot:
Look for font changer in the market... (free)

Create a folder on your sd card (i called mine htcfonts)

Look in xda for some fonts and extract them to your new folder

(suggest u rename them like zegoe.ttf, zegoe-bold.ttf)

Open the font changer app.

Mine got stuck on reboot - needed battery pull :(

enjoy!
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
There's also a custom font switcher on the market with a built in don't catalog that will download the font and install it in one or two clicks
[Thunderbolt General] Skilover:
I have frozen my Droid X using Font Changer and had to re-flash the ROM. There is an approach that works on the EROS, see thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=801160 where they flash the fonts. I don't know if this works on the DROID X in Gingerbread or not. I don't want to have to flash again, so would like to find a method that has worked for others.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccmks:
If you have ever installed the current widget on your Thunderbolt, I just wondering how is the number when the phone is left standby. Please share here, I am looking forward to see the result. Just average result of current widget if you leave your phone to standby mode.

If you root your phone, please mention that you root it. In case it makes different between rooted and unrooted.

Beginning from me.

My average result is 36 mA without root.

Thanks before.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ke3qz:
38mA rooted
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spaghetti_monster:
How are you drawing more current from a rooted phone O_o. 4g?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
I'm down to 11mA idle power draw on ginger bread. They made enormous improvements on idle power on 2.3. It's excellent, I'll go hours without losing any battery of idle time. Finally.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] failsaf3:
34mA basic root with bloat removed
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
You're talking about your NS, though, correct?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andydumi:
Huh. I get around 30-50 but I have not rooted or anything. Looks like 2.3 when it comes should help a lot.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
Sorry yeah, my nexus one actually. Just wanted to help compare how improved ginger bread will be when you guys get it.

Just today I have been unplugged for 15 hours and still have 71% battery left, connected to WiFi all night. Granted this was idle use, but it was never this good before. I exported the logs and idle current stayed level at about 12mA the whole time. My idle power on froyo stayed around 30-40mA no matter what I tried. I'm happier than I've ever been with android right now!

Something for you guys to look forward to.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1454:
I wish the carriers would realize that most of us want the ability to use the lastest greatest rom as soon as it hits and would quit locking their stuff down. If nothing else, I would think that google is big enough as an OS to tell the carriers to stop using their OS or leave them vanilla. I mean for a company like moto, who are they going to use? WM7? please. Sometimes a tiny bit of force is needed.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ridobe:
I am at 60mA. What gives? My battery dies in the middle of the night every night. I am rooted.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milan03:
26mA here, stock.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bogatyr:
I must be doing something wrong, mine says 180mA.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CorporateGoth:
It makes a difference if a) you're plugged in (in which case current is showing you how much charge you're getting, not current usage), and b) if you're using the phone (tip, turn off the screen, let it sit for a minute, then check).
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andydumi:
Right. The best way to check that I have found is using the history button. Put it to sleep then wait a half hour then check the history. I set mine to update every 5 minutes.

I use Battery Monitor Widget:

https://market.android.com/details?id=ccc71.bmw&feature=search_result

I combine it with Process Monitor to figure out energy hogs.

[Droid X Themes and Apps] toddman:
I love Apex, I love the stability of it and the great battery life. However there are some issues I'm having where I need to use the Apex toolkit. The site is down for Fabdroid so somehow that has impacted my toolkit.

Does anyone have other Rom's that are just as Stable with great Battery life they would recommend? I understand technical issues happen, so I'm not completely jumping boat on Apex. But not being able to set my default messaging app will make me switch roms, at least for a little while. ;)

[Wildfire General] arunmangalam:
Dear Friends,

I know that similar kind of questions has been already raised by many.But I am not clear about the anser.At present is it possible to root htc wildfire running 2.2 froyo?.With froyo, my phone is running too slow and battery is draining much faster than before.I really got fed up with this.I read in some forums that downgrading to 2.1 is also difficult.Is it so?

Hope some of our friends are working on these.

Please help me in these matters

Cheers

Arun
[Wildfire General] C4NCER:
At the moment you can't get permanant root on 2.2. You can get a temporary root, but that wont let you edit anything on /system. If you can find someone with an xtc clip you can get your phone S-OFF which makes /system writeable.

Downgrading seems to be easy based off the 2 or 3 step by step guides I've seen on this forum so far.

Your questions are no different to any of the ones asked before by others, please use the search next time.
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
Downgrading will work, but, it will still be unrootable. As said above, the only way as of now to root 2.2 is by using an XTC Clip hardware box to get S-OFF, then, downgrade (this is a 'proper' downgrade) and root.
[Wildfire General] ajknowsitall:
You can root your phone...

i have posted step by step instructions on my website on how to root any android phone running firmware 1.5 and above

since XDA wont allow me to post a link visit my website.. "ajknowsitall. webs. com"
[Wildfire General] Necrodais:
Enough of this already, people. You need a XTC Clip for that, which costs about $220. This is the only way, for now.
[Wildfire General] mjgs:
Moderation needed!

Alot of topics about the same thing ... :eek:
[Wildfire General] ballubas:
anyone try his method?
[Wildfire General] :
I don't believe this. Because that process was not a newer one and was there long ago. If it worked, it must have became a lot popular by now. And "Universal Androot" is not a root application recommended for NAND locked devices like wildfire. If one has bypassed the nand security with xtc clip and made s-off, then this process might work. And once if u make s-off, there are many other rooting options available. But the point here is to root the wildfire with hboot 1.01 and S-ON dude.... Do not just stick with the thread title. Read the thread, he mentioned wildfire 2.2 clearly.

I doubt whether ur device is wildfire or not (if wildfire rooted or not). Check the below attached "Root and Me" application. In that, go to the root guides and check the compatible devices for "Universal Androot" process. There is no wildfire in that.

Just confirm any process after it worked with u guys.

Actually this thread was a bit fair one started on 21st march (and then reposted yesterday). There are a lot other threads recently started with the same topic. But still i agree with u.

U might not have asked this question if u know that his process is nothing but "Universal Androot".

Inspite of being aware, i just tried it for u. It won't work and says failed.

If anyone wants to recheck they might. Actually that process is little bit confusing. And im attaching a screen shot of that website below.

The process says to install "App installer" just to install an apk file. Cant we install an apk file from a file manager ? This is ok.

Then the process says just to enable usb debugging alone to transfer the apk file frm PC to wildfire. It not even says from ADB, so i expect it means to transfer through disk drive. Come on stop joking.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougha:
The Thunderbolt is nice. Nicer if HTC Sync would work with standalone Outlook 2007 running on Vista. I'm using latest version of HTC synch from HTC website(Note: it takes a few hours to download)

I've browsed a bunch of forums looking for a solution, and have:

1. disabled firewall

2. disabled virus protection

3. downloaded lastest HTC sync (installed, deleted, re-installed, repeat, etc)

4. Followed HTC instructions about going to settings-applications-development-usb debugging, then selecting (or deselecting) HTC sync

Tried installing HTC Synch with phone not plugged in, plugged in, etc.

Usually after doing step 4 (above), Vista laptop sees the Thunderbolt and connects for about 3 seconds, and then it goes back to "No device connected" on the Vista PC. In maybe 1 in 50 attempts at connecting, it will connect long enough for me to download the pictures from the phone to the Vista Laptop.

Anyone else get HTC sync working with the Thunderbolt and Outlook 2007?

Thanks,

Doug

p.s. I can't upgrade to Windows 7 on the laptop to test this out, as I have Dell M2010 laptop with 20 inch screen that doesn't have all Win7 drivers available.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheToiletSpaula:
Hey Everyone,

My LCD screen seems to not be displaying colors as well as it should, almost as if it isn't displaying all the colors that it is in fact capable of...

I had some prior problems with my phone, including a non-functional power button, a digitizer with some unresponsive blind spots along the left and right side of the screen, and a very faint/low volume through the in-call speaker.

I had been planning to go inside my phone using the teardown/repair guide, and actually ended up stripping my phone down to the LCD panel.

The good news is I have fixed all the problems that I had set out to fix while doing the teardown.

HOWEVER, my screen is now a weird teal/blue color. For example, when I equip the standard HTC skin (the one with the nice colorful bubble background) Instead of the notification bar/button being a solid steel gray, they seem to have striping pattern with some dull colors of gray but with this teal coloration.

I was wondering if it is more likely something to do with the pcb/lcd getting slightly damaged when I did the teardown, or is it possible it is something to do with a setting on my phone? (the boot screen did load up once, when I was doing the teardown and checking if my phone still worked, I chose reboot as the option)

HELP!

Well more then likely it is the conectors I've seen it to many times when people dicide to take apart phones id say take it all apart and make sure your cabbles are plugged in nice and and firm report back and tell me.

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moer99:
I have an unusual issue with my HD7, i live in a country that doesn't support marketplace but my hotmail account is based in america. I usually can download apps normally but for the past week it tells me "attention required. Tap here." when i do tap i get "Can't get this info right now. Check back in a little while." this is after the app goes into downloads and it also happens when i want to update an app. although i can add apps through zune software, so far i only added the 7dialer app and it worked. If anybody has any idea what this is please help, thanks.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbonics:

Anyone else having trouble with the sound on video? If I talk right into the microphone during playback I can hear but talking normally it's so low I can't hear it...anyone had anything that works with this ?
[Thunderbolt General] fronc:
I'm seeing the same thing. But the problem isn't limited to just video recording. It also affects voice search from more than 2 feet away. Today, while plugged into car dock, it took me literally 12 times to get the phone to search for "Seton Hall Law".

It may be a faulty noise cancellation algorithm, not sure. Seems to work fine close range, but once you get some distance it causes trouble.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juddpwr:
I went to the Verizon store and Best Buy also and looked at the demo models- all 3 appeared to behave the same as mine with the faint orange/red LED on while on a call, so I'm guessing that's normal behavior. The salesman thought it was the screen that was lighting up the LED, but I turned off the screen and you could still see the LED was on.

However, he complaint that the BT receiver has to be right next to the Nook Color for it to work, so it may not be the best setup.
