It is all up to personal preference after all.......I dont use that stuff so i have less problems, some can be perfect for others in different circumstances

Sorta of how i LOVE the wp7's look and feel but how i love android's open source nature, hardly any restrictions:):):)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tigerz0202:
What is the difference. Is it just ppp. Seems like magldr I'd the easiest way to install android or update anything that I've ever tried, never really had any problems with it at all. Just looking for some feedback
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kam333:
Haven't tried clk, but there is another thread re this same Q, might be of help?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] drinizi:
cLK has few extra options. Charge while phone is powered off. Reboot to recovery. Faster boot time. Rom manager works.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
But if you're happy with magldr, don't upgrade to clk.

It's not worth it :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tigerz0202:
Thanks for the feedback guys, don't think ill be switching, just didn't wanna miss out on something better if it was, thanks again
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kekwowse01:
Phone with MAGLDR on cannot be charged when the phone is off? What happen if I accidentally used up every drop of the battery and the battery does not have enough juice to power up the phone? Perhaps cLK is a safer route?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
Yup that's the flaw of magldr. But I haven't read in anyone who has actually had to replace their battery because of such so you should be fine.

My hd2 ran out of battery last week so I just plugged it into the charger and after one failed attempt to boot up, it booted all the way.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] T-Macgnolia:
Ok this is my run down or two cents. :cool:

MAGLDR is way more user friendly as far as flashing CWM. It has several useful options, but a lot of those options are not needed if you have CWM. MAGLDR can boot Android and Windows Phone 7, but is not as elegantly as a native device of the corresponding OS. Size wise MAGLDR is bigger than cLK. MAGLDR uses RMNET for it's data connection. No charging while the device is off. (I theories the no off charging has some kind of correlation to the digitizer going out so often)

CLK is not as user friendly to flash CWM, as it is not just a click, click, click, click, click and flash. CLK makes your HD2 truly feel like NATIVE Android device. You can only boot Android from NAND with cLK. MAGLDR is a bigger size bootloader then cLK and uses PPP for a data connection. You can charge your HD2 while nit is off

I have used both MAGLDR and cLK, currently cLK. I think both are just amazing pieces of work. But in my honest opinion cLK is the better bootloader for someone that just wants to run NAND Android on their HD2. I just like the way cLK works better than MAGLDR. I will have to flash MAGLDR again coming soon as I want to try out the freshly released WP7 ROM with NoDo. ( yes I said with NoDo :eek:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dung8604:
I love everything about CLK except the fact that it uses PPP. With Cedesmith's b4 wrapper, it's bearable, but I still get about 10 data drops per day minimum (just tried today). The problem doesn't seem to occur too much in strong reception areas. For now, I'm back to MAGLDR. Love CLK, but I will take a significantly more stable data connection.

This is my experience only. Several people do not get data drops at all with the b4 wrapper.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Zimaia:
Where, where, where???? :D:D

Is this the rom you are talking about??

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] SageKing:
cLK

cLK has more benefits than MAGLDR and feels a lot more native than MAGLDR.

So pro cLK.

About the new WP7 builds:

The camera in flash mode is again green tinted and you need an activation code for the live service or sideload apps. Just wait for Mango update later of the year than I give WP7 a try.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Primo.TM:
This describes it best.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deckoff:
I will revive this thread:

I am really not interested in using Win7 and would like to try out CLK. I would like to ask 2 questions:

1) Pros and cons of using RMNET and PPP. I live in Bulgaria, Europe, if this matters in any way. I am very concerned about data drops.

2) Is there a way to swap MAGLDR with CLK in a easy way : via clockworkmod or something: I dont want to install Win 6.5 rom and all that to get it

Thank you
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ryan1990:
clk is for more advanced people imo.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bipinsen:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deckoff:
What about installing it - Do I have to go all the way flashing official WM ROM and so on...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kylew1212:
I've written a clk guide if you decide to switch. It may answer questions as well
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nastyfingers:
Have to say that seems to be android issue in poor reception areas. I live in area that struggles to get any kind of data connection. I've had a few android devices now, all that all drop data connection regularly when in my local area or other poor reception spots.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] marknev:
Awesome question
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] specter16:
I don't know why some peopls ask or say that you must flash wm6.5 if you wanna swap between MAGLDR/CLK

you can go between them at any time without losing any data or apps here is what i did

i was in MAGLDR 1.13

Full backup via recovery

flashed CLK via SD (copy CLK "LEOIMG.nbh" to sd root then reboot the device while holding vol down ) then press vol up to perfotm the flash

you're now in CLK, it's time to flash recovery image

download your favorit HD2 recovery.img file

download QtADB from here

go to recovery tab then brows the recovery.img and flash it ( it's easy i think )

now reboot your phone and you're in recovery

partition your NAND exactlly as it was in MAGLDR

flash your ROM (yes FLASH it not from the backup)

i repeat FLASH THE ROM FROM THE ZIP

now goto advanced backup option from recovery then restore the rest of the partitions one by one

FOR THE LAST TIME, DO NOT RESTORE SYSTEM IMAGE FROM BACKUP

wipe dalvik and fix permissions then reboot

your done

i allready tested this methode and it workd fine i migrated from MAGLDR to Clk safely

check my signature to view my current phone config

ThanX :)

[Thunderbolt Accessories] Morkai Almandragon:
http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/csr3htmec-rd.htm

http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/bd2-hk4htmec.htm

here is what I was thinking...

If you could cut out a hole in the Innocase 2 Surface, then another hole for the Rugged " skin... would the Rugged "Skeleton? fit?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ddgarcia05:
On the first one you'll have to cut off the locking mechanism to the case. You wont be able to securely snap it on. Assuming the locking mec is in the middle of the two pieces. The second one will require you to cut off everything above the kickstand so the bottom half will not have be attached to the two top corner. I'll just fall off.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Morkai Almandragon:
I do not see why you would have to cut the sides at all, the beck extends out, not the sides.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] pmazz850:
I considered doing this with my Incredible but never pulled the trigger. I thought it might be possible. I didn't have the extended battery to try it out.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] TDevilsG:
Agreed.

Are you sure you have to do cutting?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] RaptorMD:
No doubt seidio will come along with their case that fits their 3500mAh battery. Honestly I don't want an even larger battery adding bulk, the 2750mAh is fine.

I did contact HTCPeida shop and they replied back that they are working on a case for the ThunderBolt with extended battery. Of course they did say "it will take some time, but check back often". In the word of offshore manufacturing and low costs in china how hard can it be to get a TPU case with an opening in the back. Not that hard or so it seems it is.

Here is the seidio Evo 4G case http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/bd4-hkr5hev4x.htm
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Morkai Almandragon:
I bought the seido case that comes with all the piecesi linked (three total). It fits decently without the first layer, the camera flap has tobe removed or flipped under the rubber layer, and the kick stand is a bit difficult to use.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] RaptorMD:
I emailed Seidio about their 3500mAh battery and of cases that would fit it. All I got was the typical reply, we do plan on offering it, but we do not have an eta at this time.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] kendive:
I would not buy the Seidio Battery. They get very bad reviews and I have sent two back.

You are better off with the original HTC Extended battery.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] jinvox:
I had a post about this...

But I do hope Seidio does make this for the TB:

http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/bd5-hkr5hev4x.htm
[Thunderbolt Accessories] HarlyFan:
In time there will be plenty of cases available for the patented battery.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Ovrclck:
Well it's been only 2 weeks since the phone came out lol Just hate having to wait. :D
[Thunderbolt Accessories] McLabia:
Will this fit on our phones? If so, Ill order that rather than trusting my hopefully steady handed cousin to do some dremel cutting. lol.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] 1234567188:
No. Look at the design of the extended cover, theirs is full and not just a little bump
[Thunderbolt Accessories] McLabia:
I posted this else where but I figured it was relevant info to share here.

So, Ive been buggin the crap out of Seido with requests for them to make an extended case. Ive emailed them, dropped in on their thread here, and posted on their facebook. Today they responded to my FB post with this.

"Seidio commented on their Wall post.

Seidio wrote: "Hey, we're developing a rugged case for the thunderbolt. Let me get back to you later this week on extended cases for Surface and Active!""

Received this seconds ago:

"Seidio I got more accurate information for you. We are releasing a SURFACE extended and ACTIVE extended for use with the OEM extended battery for the Thunderbolt. You can sign up to htcmecha@seidio.com and we'll let you know when it releases!"
[Thunderbolt Accessories] azndan2:
haha you just liked my comment LOL!
[Thunderbolt Accessories] McLabia:
lol. So did Seido...lol
[Thunderbolt Accessories] azndan2:
well heres hoping it releases soon because I am kind of concerned about the durability of my thunderbolt. also, my extended battery cover doesn't fit as flush as it would like. I wonder if I got a defective cover? go sharks!
[Thunderbolt Accessories] McLabia:
Well, supposedly theres another one also coming out, and if they dont theres always doing the Frankencase.

Im thinking that the first batch of those covers sucked. Ive heard a lot about that but mine fits PERFECT even after I dropped my phone. My screen however cracked and pushes the need for one of these cases.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] azndan2:
you cracked the screen? dang... i gotta be careful with mine. i assume your phone is still usable though?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] McLabia:
It was very usable thanks to my Ghost Armor. It allowed me to use it till I had to mail it into MDPA for my insurance claim. On the bright side, I dont have to pay anything but one way shipping to get my phone replaced or repaired. I honestly dont care which. haha. As long as my screen isnt cracked anymore, Ill be happy. Btw, if you get the Ghost Armor, I would get it done at the Oakridge mall kiosk in South SJ. Theyre ballin over there and did an awesome job on mine and some of my fams.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] azndan2:
darn, i just ordered the steinheil screen protector today. thanks for the heads up though!
[Thunderbolt Accessories] McLabia:
The ones Ghost Armor sells are full phone protection and they have the ones for the regular and extended battery. Ill be buying the extended battery one when I get my phone back since my regular battery is already covered.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] McLabia:
http://www.seidioonline.com/category-s/5453.htm

Yee! Well folks, theyre almost here....Halfway down, youll see three "Coming Soon" bubbles....^_^
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Master™:
Yes! :P

Thanks for sharing, I am hoping these come out soon.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ddgarcia05:
Anyone know how long they usually take after posting the bubble. The battery has had coming soon for some time now.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] McLabia:
o.O I was on there the other day and I didnt see the coming soon bubble. Not for the extended anyways. From what Im guessing, itll be in the next couple of weeks.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ddgarcia05:
So... Should I go buy a case for my phone for the mean time. I hacked away at my bestbuy case to allow the extended battery to fit but didn't like the outcome. Now I'm on the stock battery and naked.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] McLabia:
Id just use the cheapo that you hacked on. I asked this of my ex one day and it made sense to her. You wanna look good? Go naked. If you wanna be protected, the outter shell doesnt matter. lol. I think the same applies here. Itll be released soon enough. Take this from a guy thats waiting on his Bolt to come back to him after his screen cracked.;)
[Thunderbolt Accessories] jinvox:
I just made a post about this product from Seidio and works for those of us that have the VZ extended battery 2750

Any help would be appreciated.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kashlum:
I have Fresh ROM and while I don't mind it, the battery life sucks and I was really missing the customization that I had made in CM7. I've tried about 4 other AOSP ROMs hoping for some luck, but nothing worked.

I've done the GPSCLRX fix successfully, but as soon as I load an AOSP ROM neither wifi or GPS work.

I'm running an EVO with hardware 0004, latest PRI and PRL

I've tried running CM Nightly 23 (someone said it worked for them) and 30, Salvaged 1.0, some others briefly...

It's frustrating to see that most people solve this after the first GPSCLRX. I don't seem to be borking it up, but I'm not resolving the problem either.

Questions:

Could I be entering the wrong MSL? I used MSL Reader to pull the code.

Is there a better CM build or a different ROM I should try (sense rom or AOSP)?

Am I doomed to live in Sense ROM mediocrity and never truely be hardcore?

What are my next steps?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakeboys:
No, msl reader is pretty spot on. It works. Now, are you on fresh and still no gps? Being a sense rom, it should work just fine. Also, I read that you tried 4 aosp roms, how many sense roms have tried? I use myn warm two point two because off the customization options it offers, have you checked it out?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Have you tried CM6.1? I know it's not the latest thing, but I loved it. I didn't jump on the CM7 bandwagon until around the time nightly 21 came out because I was so happy with CM6. Unless you just have to have Gingerbread, I'd try it out. It's just as stable as Sense ROMs in my opinion.

Have you tried any of the Senseless Sense Roms?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigbailey1986:
List the step and I will tell you what's missing. The fix works completely, tho sometimes there is a small step most ppl skip.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
Download GPS Status from the market, let it d/l the GPS Assist data and synch to you sats, then open maps and see if it pinpoints you.

This is what I always do, even on CM7 and maps and Navigation would work perfectly.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kashlum:
blakeboys: Fresh works perfectly, I also tried Elite II and that also worked very well. I like them both, but just not as much as CM.

plainjane: I haven't tried CM6.1, but I may download that tonight and give it a try, I don't believe that I *need* Gingerbread, so I might have better luck with that, thanks for the help!

craigbailey1986:

- Clockwork Recovery -> Wipe Data, Cache, then run Casxxxx_Format_ALL.zip, Flash FreshRom, Flash gapps, Reboot.

- Skip initial setup, Dialer, ##GPSCLRX#, Enter MSL, Forced Reboot.

- Maps, tap My Location, Select random location, Get Driving Directions (Navigation boots), wait for nav to start, exit nav, sit and wait for 5 to 10 minutes, Reboot to Recovery.

- Wipe Data, Cache, run Casxxxx_Format_All.zip, Flash CM23/30, Flash gapps, flash savage kernel, reboot.

- CM boots with GPS on, but no icon in notification bar and can't get location in Maps, same with wireless.

Let me know if I'm missing something, I could be overthinking this or not doing enough...it seemed straightforward though.

HipKat: I'll give that a try if CM6.1 still gives me the issue tonight.

Thanks for everyones help, hopefully one of these things will work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mswlogo:
After you do the Clear GPS thing let it boot the sense ROM and get ONE good lock with say Google Maps. Then switch back to CM7.

I thought letting it get a lock on the Sense ROM would mess it up but it was the opposite. It had to get one or it would not work.

I found WIFI works but was shakey.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kashlum:
Just a dumb question, what is considered a "lock". Like, hitting My Location and making sure it's within so many meters of accuracy, or leaving the app open long enough to send some data back and forth? Just want to make sure I'm not doing something wrong.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kashlum:
Just an update, finally got some time to work on my phone and the GPS Status tool seemed to have enabled the GPS and maps is working now. Thanks!

Not working

When i type in ##4772579# the numbers just disappear as soon as I hit the last # symbol. I am running a sense rom. When I type that in I cant hit send or call because it disappears. Anyone run into this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serdna75:
Another thing to try: flash a different kernel.

On my phone, GPS will not work if I run any SavageZen kernel (v2 and up). Never get the flashing GPS icon in the notification bar, nada. Even tried ##GPSCLRX# and used GPSStatus from the market.

However, GPS works fantastic when I run a Tiamat kernel. No idea why.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmstwo002:
Also, after you flash to a sense ROM, get the GPS lock on Google Maps, make sure you leave the GPS on when flashing to recovery to restore Nandroid or flash a new AOSP ROM.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
It's supposed to do that... or at least that's what happened when I did it. It should take you straight to the screen that asks for your msl, input it and you'll get a message saying that the phone will reboot in 10 seconds. After it reboots, get a lock in maps and leave GPS on. Then turn the phone off, boot to recovery and nandroid restore - or wipe and flash the new rom. This is how I did it and it worked perfectly.

What rom are you using to do the fix?

My Evo + xda Premium App = This post.
[Legend General] segphault:
I'm currently on blay0's ROM (deodexed) and I'm wondering whether or not I can replace the stock gallery app with the one from CM7. I'd assume there's some adb work involved (pushing CM7's gallery to the appropriate place) unless I'm grossly misinformed.

I don't want to go right ahead in case I somehow irreversibly mess things up, even though I can nandroid. It's also nice to have and provide discussion.
[Legend General] irminsul:
Why don't you install quickpic or some other third party application? My experiences with the cm7 are bad, it's terribly slow. the only thing it brings is nice eye candy.
[Legend General] segphault:
My experiences with the Gallery in CM7 are better than those with the stock gallery, hence this thread.
[Legend General] cobraplayer:
I am happy with CM7, but with one tradeoff. I have never ever been able to use its gallery app. It takes forever to load images from sd card.

Just use QuickPic to browse images.
[Legend General] segphault:
Can we stay on topic, please?

I do not want to use a third party app to do something as basic as browsing photos. I just want to do as the first post describes.
[Legend General] rajasyaitan:
Possible, just push the ones you want and pull the ones from Blayo's.
[Legend General] segphault:
Hm. I was thinking there could be something else involved but I'll give it a try regardless.

Swyped from my Legend using the xda app
[Legend General] jabbado:
Isn't the cm7 gallery app just Gallery 3D?

A question on this:

The cm7 gallery doesn't seem to be deodexed. So if you wanted to copy an app like this, you have to copy the odex file as well, do you?
