[Windows Phone 7 General] toothfish:
Heres another question, can you copy this backup and store it somewhere then when you need it you can replace it over?

For example you updated it the first time (1st backup), then you rolled back to original and now u r updating it the second time (2nd backup).

Can you replace the 2nd backup with the 1st backup?

And would unlocking complicate this matter in any way?
[HTC Inspire 4G] baconissweet:
Hello, I was wondering if the at&t five dollars a month warranty covers screen scratches. Not that I've had any yet I'm just wondering.
[HTC Inspire 4G] leemoss84:
you still gotta pay a $50 deductible and you're supposed to send them the phone back if its not lost or stolen. i imagine if it came up missing they would;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
I believe it does but you would have to pay a deductible.

Heres a link to their site with more info:

http://www.wireless.att.com/learn/basics/choosing-features-services/wireless-insurance.jsp

If its lost or stolen, then you need to file a police report.
[HTC Inspire 4G] silenzzzz:
it covers everything ... but you pay the deductible ... i believe it is 125$ for the inspire.
[HTC Inspire 4G] baconissweet:
Thanks for the responses guys! That deductible sounds like a @#%&
[HTC Inspire 4G] silenzzzz:
its based on the actual cost of the phone i believe ... (company cost not customer cost)
[HTC Inspire 4G] cavsoldier19d:
I actually just did an insurance claim on my inspire. ***** pushed me in a pool and had my inspire in my pocket and fried it instantly. They will have you call an 800 number to process your claim, in which they will ask you questions on the condition of your phone. They will mail you a brand new, non refurbished phone in the mail,which takes a couple days to arrive in the mail. Once received, you will have to mail your original phone back using the same box your new phone came in. You have 10 days to send in your old phone before additional charges apply. A deductible of $125 will be charged to your account.
[HTC Inspire 4G] blinker_fluid:
SPOBI. They always try refurbished devices first, if none are available then you may get a new one.

And technically cosmetic damage is not covered...usability has to be impacted. That's not to say you can't make a case for some software issue haha....

Whatever you do remember that you can only have 3 claims in any 12 month period.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ogxku5h:
Get the best buy blacktie protection plan. Covers pretty much everything and NO DEDUCTIBLE. And it's always a new phone they give you. They don't have refurbished phones to give.
[HTC Inspire 4G] corey600rr:
are you sure best buy gives brand new phones??

i was told they deal with the same company as att ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] projekt1:
Do you have to buy it from Best Buy?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ftmoe:
Best Buy's Black Tie Covers all damage that affects the usability of the phone. So not just some light scratches unless you prove it keeps you from using your phone properly. It does not cover loss, theft, or total submersion in water (how that's supposed to proven, I dunno). The phone is sent out as a "rapid-exchange" where you'll have a refurbished phone in your hands in 3-5 business days.

Before the new rapid-exchange system, it used to be that if the phone was not cost effective to fix, they would tell the store to give you a brand new one. This is no longer true as of recently.

EDIT: The phone does have to be purchased at Best Buy.. unless it is an iPhone and you have a receipt showing it was purchased new within 30 days.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ogxku5h:
Actually best buy gives you brand new phones. If they have the phone in stock they gladly just swap it out if you can reproduce the problem right then and there. No refurbs and no deductible. I think it's about 9 or 10 dollars a month.
[HTC Inspire 4G] blinker_fluid:
It's store manager discretion if they swap it out with a brand new one at BBY. Actual SOP is send out to be fixed and the customer is offered a loaner phone. If it takes 30 days or the repair is not cost effective (total destruction of phone or severe water damage) then the phone is replaced with new device.

The rapid Exchange process mentioned above is rolling out in waves by carrier at BBY. Currently only VZW is all rapid exchange, ATT is still 'send for service'.

The misinformation floating around astounds me...
[Streak 5 General] mellojoe:
I just convinced my dad to get a Streak. However he really needs the ability to use a custom mp3 as a ringtone. He has made specific songs for each of his kids and he likes them to ring that way. I can't figure it out. Can anyone help?

Where or how can I link specific mp3 as ringtonefor a contact?
[Streak 5 General] metal1f3:
Long press on a song in the stock music player, and then select "Use as phone ringtone".

*Edit: The only way i know to setup ringtones specific to individuals is if you use handscent mms app. Go to your contacts, and select one, then press menu>options>ringtone and tap select music with the handscent icon, then tap music and select the song.
[Streak 5 General] eowyn:
Download ringdroid from the market, you can create ringtones from your mp3 files and use it for specific person, just what you need.
[Streak 5 General] maek_it_happen:
+1 for ringroid ... A must havr
[Streak 5 General] marvin02:
When you view the contact details tap the menu key and then select options. You can then set a custom ringtone. (Android 2.2)

The folder structure (this is on the external SD Card) that ringdroid uses is:

media
/audio
/alarms
/notifications
/ringtones

You can create the same structure using a file explorer such as ES File Explorer and copy any existing ring or notification tones into the appropriate folder and the ringtone picker will see the file.

If your Dad just got the Streak and it has Android 1.6 you will probably want to check into upgrading to Android 2.2

Currently running Axura 2.2.5.9 w/ KB1 modem. Does anyone know if this ROM blocks ad requests? If so, would there be a way to unblock them? I use this phone as my developer phone and it's hard to troubleshoot when the ROM blocks the ads.

Thanks in advance.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iscrewup:
Most Ad blocking app uses your hosts file to redirect known ad site to another IP (like 127.0.0.1). You can just deleted the ad blocking entries in the hosts file to unblock.

So all I've been hearing lately is all about this A-TT merger with T-Mobile. I don't know why our dear mother wants to marry this asshole anyways! They are not right for each other! Ok I get it., our mom (TMobile) is depressed cause all her kids run amock, flashing anything and anybody and thinks we need a father figure in our lives to settle us down... but it's not gonna work!! I can see it now... dad comes home late with a little to much alcohol in his system, starts demanding more money for room and board, and we all know that he's just gonna use that money to take out the neighbors wife behind moms backs... He ends up sleeping with the girl next door(sprint) Getting her pregnant... then leaving our mom nothing in the divorce and blaming everything on her constant drug use due to her being unhappy... Can't you see what he's done to us? We used to be a happy family.. We didn't need him in our lives. But believe me my brother's and sisters... I know we'll make it if we stick together...

[Vibrant General] wasscomedy:
The Way I look at it is, My dad was an M.I.T professor who studied the effects of LSD on himself and Sea Monkies. To top it off, he never played baseball with me and insisted that I played hide the quarter in the shed with my uncle. My mother was a overweight bow legged French Canadian street walker who hated breast feeding. She loved to throw pebbles in the water. (My nickname is pebbles) When she'd come home to grab condoms from her draw, she would always remind me that should of used a vibrator that night in 84 (I was born in 84) @ age 12, I developed the taste for food and water. I always enjoyed meatloaf day in shcool. My teachers told me "It's not the size of the **** but the sock your putting in it". I realized every time I would lose weight my girlfriend would find it. I was called a lot of things growing up, my dad called me not his. I got so stoned once that i tried to pack a toilet bowl, the **** wouldn't light. I think Axe body spray smells like date rape. How come every time I poop I pee, but every time I pee I don't poop? So then I decided to root my phone.

HI All,

I tried this room and I faced strange issues, after the flash, (full wipe), If I try to run for example superuser it's working well, but shoot me and rom manager are not working apparently they can not access the user root authorizations...

I don't not why, do I need to clear the dalvik cache for that ?

Or somenone is facing the same troubles than me ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] keinengel:
I've had similar issues when flashing and wiping all the partitions (including system and dalvik) from within ClockworkMOD Recovery and then flashing fixed them.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SG_Shadow:
Great so far...

Been using this since day one and everything seems to work just fine. I just wish it was a little faster. I can't wait until some overclocked kernels get created. Keep up the good work.

Search "locale" in market. You should get any number of random apps that should help you with this issue. Below is the one that I use.

quick qns, how is this sense rom so far?

been using CM7, wanna try by sense rom :p

anyone got screen of it ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gooler:
It's pretty stable. I've been using it since rmk40 published it and so far all goes great.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] skulk3r:
very stable and fully featured. looks like any other Sense 2.1 ROM with Gingerbread, except it is stable. Very smooth as well with no OC, I haven't actually experienced any ROM slow-down at all (though this might vary from user to user)

Sometimes Sense restarts, but that's with any other launcher though. Great ROM - I've been using it solidly for a few weeks now, and I'm a flashaholic!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jeandujardin01:
Well it sense does restart for me pretty often with stock launcher, my gameloft games don't work anymore after putting back with mybackup pro, sometimes even plugged in, it doesn't charge and SD card unmount sometimes....

Oh and battery is awful !

Been using for since It's out...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] quizesilver:
That nice to hear. Can this rom last 12hr? Normal usage. From email to sms n call.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SG_Shadow:
1) I agree... the sense launcher does restart a decent amount. But coming from the original G1 with HTC Sense back in the day, I'm happy.

2) Some gameloft games don't work, not all. The only one that hasn't worked for me is N.O.V.A.

3) No charge and sd unmount sounds like hardware related problems. You might need to contact your carrier for a replacement device. I hope your under warranty or have some type of protection plan.

4) My battery is just fine and I'm a heavy user with a decent number of apps running in the background with auto refresh every hour for most of them.

I've been using this ROM since day one with no real problems besides the launcher restarting. I'm not a heavy gamer on a "smart phone" so that's not that big a deal to me. I just can't wait until a overclock kernel gets created.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] skulk3r:
I found that I could extend the battery life significantly if I switch off 3G/Wifi and switch it on only when I wanted it to be on (this was when I was away for a couple of days). Normally though, just recharge it everyday.

I only have Asphalt 6, and that doesn't work for me. But haven't tried any other game.

The launcher rarely restarts on me unless I use a memory intensive game or a large app (e.g.: maps + navigation + gallery). Try to avoid task killers.

No clue on the charging stuff though...reflash?
