Some of you have probably seen some of the mods in the Hero Development forum and have applied them. One thing that I have noticed, or that I thought was a really cool mod was removing the end call button from the screen - mainly because it can hang up an important call if you face dial (not a problem I currently have, but the 1 time it happens can be devastating)...another mod that is really cool is remapping the hard keys (menu, search, back, home, vol up and down). I have already utilized the mod to allow my search button to control play/pause of media files without waking the phone up.

To the point: Yesterday, I was looking through the remap mod to find out if there is a way to map actions to hard-press buttons, in looking for that, I found that there is an option for Power. Now, as many of you know, the Hero does not have a power button to turn the screen off when in a phone call - that is what the Power option does - turns the screen off WITHOUT hanging up on the person you are talking to. Now, the only way to end the call is to press the End Call button on the dialer...kind of hard to do if you removed the button LOL...so for anyone doing mods, save your work, you never know when you will have to go back...I deleted the backup files because I thought I was done with modding the dialer/phone.

Hope this helps someone.
[Hero CDMA General] il Duce:
Yup, nandroid FTW. Curious, did you get it fixed? Or are you also asking for assistance?
[Hero CDMA General] evilvoice:
Havent fixed it yet, though I could just send the keylayout undoing the power button for now. In the end, I will have to add the end call button back because I am really liking the ability to turn the screen off without hanging up. I just cant remember what I did to do the mod, if I actually removed lines of code or commented them out. It is JsChiSurfs mod, but because the files posted were old, I edited my file with his method...looks like it is apktool time.

Edit: I should point out that with the mod, pressing the end call button on the dialer isnt the ONLY way, even though I said it was. You could also reboot the whole phone - currently what I have to do now for those that dont terminate the call. JOY!
[Hero CDMA General] oohaylima:
Oh my!!!!! I always wanted to find a way to turn off the screen while on a call. Please, please, please find out how you did it.

I live in Southeast Michigan, and since last night the LTE upload speeds I have been getting have been in the 3-4Mbps range where they had been about 22-26Mbps since I got the phone This past Monday.

Has anybody else noticed a decrease in the LTE upload speeds?

Also, has anybody found any ways to fix the LTE connectivity problem where the phone hovers with 4g showing but connectivity seems absent? (i.e. trying to load a webpage that just hovers with no up or down arrow activity and doesn't download for several seconds?)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magneticzero:
That falls within the specs of LTE. The higher numbers are due to the faulty speedtest app giving you false numbers.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikolai2.1:
or maybe Verizon just lowered our speeds?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letzgostate:
I am not complaining about the speeds or them not falling within specs. I am talking about using the hotspot app with an online browser based bandwidth speed test, not the one from the android market. I am just wondering if anybody else has noticed a decrease.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magneticzero:
5-12Mbps upload and 2-5Mbps upload....dont think they changed it ;)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chino0131:
Mine are still showing 25down/2.7up on average in Northern VA. This is not with the speedtest app
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrocker23:
These are the speeds we have actually been getting. The high numbers you see or were seeing were not acurate because of the way apps and sites were reading the buffer in the thunderbolt. The phone was giving out wrong info.

No matter what high numbers you were seeing, if you did any tests by actually downloading files & such, you would see that it was actually between the numbers stated above.

Just FYI
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milan03:
I've never seen uploads higher than 14mbps on Verizon's LTE, unless you're counting SpeedTest.app and the nonsense results.

Flashing different custom ROMs, some of us, sooner or later, are meeting ONE TERRIBLE PROBLEM - device getting bricked... Unfortunately, might happend...

With new developments of feropont we are getting, finally, updated (in the meaning of ballanced and smooth "relationship" between hardware and software) device. He, certanly, done jobs, Toshiba supposed to do before releasing the device.

... And it is real pain - inability to enjoy using such improved device...

As a members of xda-developers community, we become pretty skillsful resolving different problems - we have huge support over here - this is one of the reasons for opening this thread - to get help, and help others. Again - everyone of us can meet the problem.

I am a hard user of Windows Mobile from early years when Dell Axim just came to public. TG01 - my last device, in which I found full functional Pocket PC and pretty developed cell phone - all in one :), and with my accurate attitude in using my "toy" I did not expect to fall victim of software glitch... But it happened!

My particular problem is really unusual – I cannot flash ANY custom made ROM (even earliest – see pere’s ROM table), But I am ABLE to flash any official ROM (!?)

We discussed the problem with feropont, he found it pretty unusual - I am inviting you to open discussion here, in one place, related to most common problems TG01 Users can meet… and hope, I'll find solution for my problem, as well.

Following, I would like to provide with links to previous answers to came across problems – all about TG01. (send me links – you consider helpful – will post them here in a first page).

Hi.

What method of flashing You used to utlize ?

I can confirm only that using 3-pin metods ( as always I say - absolutely do not use this method if You really do not have to. ) should be involved only for official roms . Someone will say not true. I say I had always problems to flash custom roms utilizing this method so always, I repeat always, flash only any official rom this way. Never have had any problems with official roms but always problems with custom roms including "terrible" messages like "NAND flash error". Maybe flashing custom roms this method cause such big problems in the future ? It seems to be service mode not normal flashing mode so who knows what wrong can wait for us if rom is not official.

Anyway utilizing sdll+ software seems to be ok both for official and custom roms.

I have not had any slightest problem with it.

Sometimes people are gilty themselves. Flash strange custem roms with God knows where custom bootloaders and it is enough. For example, Nokser has bricked His tg01 and only JTAG can help him. Too much experiments with unknown matter and disaster is ready. Many people tried His last rom and who knows whether they are next candidactes to have unresolved problems with their tg01s.

[TG01 ROM Development] (InsertNameHere):
Flashing any device always has a risk attached, whether that be a Toshiba TG01 or a pc motherboard bios, still as long as procedures for flashing are followed correctly nobody should have many problems, but obviously bad things can happen, how many motherboards have died on a bios flash for example?

Flashing TG01 is no more risky than flashing other devices, however what you flash it with is the area where risk becomes involved.
[TG01 ROM Development] olyloh6696:
I think what is needed is a tool for HTC devices called 'task 29' basically when we flasg custom ROMs over and over again, some roms are bigger than others etc, so they dont overwrite all system files, therefore, old system files from the previous ROM is left in the new ROM. this corrupts the phone, therefore you expeirience bugs. We need a tool like task 29.

but personally i dont/ havent faced any of these problems... *touch wood* :)
[TG01 ROM Development] eskyt:
Thank yo guys!

To fxdjacentyfxd - thank you for sharing thougts.

I am exactly an example of "next candidacte" - I always was extremly carefull and used sdll+ only. I even did not know how to use3 pin method :)(feropont, many thanks him, instructed me).

I guess, (really just guess), my problem came from corrupted .tsw file - you know, we can see full sized file on memory card, when (factually) copying process was interrupted...

This is the riddle - what "changed" in the boot area, that compel my device to accept officials ROMs only (and only through 3 pin method), when customs (through sdll+) stopping it on Toshiba logo...

To olyloh6696 - yes, feropont had mentioned this future in privet correspondence - would be good to have it!

To (InsertNameHere) - "obviously bad things can happen" - supposed to be motto of this thread:D
[TG01 ROM Development] fxdjacentyfxd:
Accordingly to what You wrote about corrupted .tsw file I forgot to mention that after every copy of new .tsw to prg directory on SD card I :

1) always check .tsw file in prg directory via tgtool.exe software

2) from time to time I execute chkdsk utility to check SD card.

Only after point 1) and 2) I start sdll+ uploader.

[TG01 ROM Development] eskyt:
That is smart! Did not know it before. Hope, other users will take it into consideration...
[TG01 ROM Development] fxdjacentyfxd:
Reading posts about bricked tg01s I got to conclusion that some bricks were really becuase of corrupted .tsw or logical errors on SD card. So I have always thought it is worthy to waste 1 minute to check .tsw in prg directory than irreversibly bricked tg01.

P.S. Your case is really very, very strange. To "damage" bootloader it accepts only official roms.... I can not belive in it. Must be other explanation.

fxdjacentyfxd
[TG01 ROM Development] eskyt:
... - and I am trying to find solution...
[TG01 ROM Development] ffboy2009:
i agree with olyloh6696's opinions

when we flashed roms so many times,maybe our phone's NAND flash appear some bad blocks.it's really like the problems in HTC phones.

Maybe use Tgdownloader flash an Official rom will helpfull with this problem.

Anyway,when we cook roms,tgtool always check if there's any error in our custom rom,and we just make changes in OS partition,didn't change/edit anything with the Bootloader or Radio.So i must say the most possibility that brickes our phone should be the Flashing Progress.
[TG01 ROM Development] fxdjacentyfxd:
It is similar I wrote in my first post. Typically ( I am not going to check more ) I am not able to flash rom via 3-pin method if rom is not official. It seems I have always had this feature. I had maybe free "bricks" since I have tg01 , because of my experiments with drivers and so that to flash any good rom via 3-pin it had to be always official rom ! Fortunately sdl++ works fine for any rom.

Did You flash many custom roms ? Maybe one of them is "this one" and it is worthy to find out which it is.

On the other hand as I remember tgdownloader has feature to upload different areas of the rom separately ( boot area too ).

Maybe someone brave could upload this method boot area ? If it works You could upload Your boot area too.

I know, it is hardcore :)

Regards

fxdjacentyfxd
[TG01 ROM Development] olyloh6696:
yes, as no tool exist, the best method for us is for every ROM flash:

1) Hard Reset Current ROM

2) Flash Stock ROM

3) Hard Reset Stock ROM

4) Flash New ROM

5) Hard Reset

You could even go as far as Reflashing the same ROM over the same ROM again to eliminate further errors.

This is the recommended precedure to follow, however I usaully miss out steps 1,2,3.

[TG01 ROM Development] eskyt:
...So true.

By explanation of feropont official ROM supposed to "zap" like kind of bad blocs in a flash memory (if any exist...), but, as we can see on my example Toshiba is "writing" every thing above of exist information without "cleaning" inside flash like task29 HTC is doing... He also mentioned that problems, mostly, becoming not in a boot area, but later, on the level of (qoute) "kernel initialization, xip..." - I am not prepared enough technically to discuss this llevel, but it is seems for me like I will stay with Malaysian ROM for ever...
[TG01 ROM Development] feropont:
The main trouble is that the TG01 really does not make a general cleaning of flash Task 29 by analogy HTC devices. Judging from the descriptions of problems, bootloader is absolutely not damaged, it allows you to upload the whole flash ROM is not just any official ROM. The problems begin during kernel initialization XIP at the first boot device on any custom ROM. Every chef in the community TG01 anyway does not collect the full XIP, all cut-ins debuggers and encryption (kd.dll hd.dll mencfilt and etc). Unfortunately I have no time but first and foremost I would like to cook a custom ROM with the full original XIP, that would finally remove the issues in which there were bad blocks of flash in the kernel XIP or OS.nb.

Thx
[TG01 ROM Development] fxdjacentyfxd:
Thanks feropont.

Very interesting. You mean that if I cook my rom not removing any .dll from original XIP I will have more "safe" rom. Have any of mentioned dll's like for debug any influence on rom speed ( can be switched on-off after flashing ) ?

Bootloder part seems to be possible be overwritten too in some cases. Example, Noksers works.

Regards

fxdjacentyfxd
[TG01 ROM Development] feropont:
Unfortunately I can disappoint you, this is not an example of a new bootloader, and the result work of a new OEM, in particular, changed the entrance to the bootloader. Bootloader by definition can not be in OS.nb, he placed in the common part of the file .TSW who all mistakenly called RADIO, and if elementary compared Hex, the differences are almost no. Located in the very first sectors and is called MIBIB_BOOT.

*** MIBIB_BOOT Region Info ***
Region 0: "MIBI " start: 0 size: 80 r-size: 32 Ver: 0x0000 SubVer: 0x0000
Region 1: "SIM_ " start: 80 size: 48 r-size: 0 Ver: 0x0000 SubVer: 0x0000
Region 2: "FSBL " start: 128 size: 32 r-size: 24 Ver: 0x0000 SubVer: 0x0000
Region 3: "OSBL " start: 160 size: 32 r-size: 24 Ver: 0x0000 SubVer: 0x0000

Thx
[TG01 ROM Development] fxdjacentyfxd:
I have always thought , this device starts as typical ( known from microprocessors equpipped with boot section ) always from bootloader part but other circumstances decides whether after power up bootloder:

1) boot the system and "jump" to it

2) do other action like flash upload - check 3-pin condition or condition forced by sdll+ software

That is why I do not understand why Nokser can have completely dead device and not damaged bootloader.

[TG01 ROM Development] leeston2379:
Since moving to Android I noticed most roms come with an md5 to check against the downloaded copy before flashing, just in case there is any corruption. Maybe a good idea to take a similar approach with tg01 roms.

I don't own my th anymore but flashed it in excess of 100 times using both sddl+ and 3 pins and never had any problems.

I rooted my TB via the one click method offered by Captiankrtek and flashed Das Bamf 1.3.1. Then downloaded setcpu, autodetected speeds, tried disabling perflock (which it says was not needed) and then tried overclocking past 1024MHz, but alas, that is my highest setting. So I though maybe I need to flash the kernel. Went to Rom Manager and have tried every kernel under Mr. Bobrowitz's section. In the software information it clearly states the custom kernels but setCPU is still sticking to 1024. I tried uninstalling setCPU and reinstalling but nothing is working. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubbamade:
I hear a lot of people wanting to put certain shutdown animations on their phone. Maybe you like the one from Bionix 1.3.1 or the one from Sweethoney series of ROMs. Well, I decided to make detailed instructions on how to put any shutdown animation on your phone you would like.

I used the TV shutdown animation and audio on mine, but I imagine this would work for taking any shutdown animation you want from any ROM and making it your own.

You can get the TV shutdown screen on any ROM...you just use your computer to open the ROM.zip (generic name could be any ROM.zip).

1. Go to "system/media" folder and find the "/video" folder and take it from any ROM that has the TV shutoffx (I think Sweethoney 2.5 has it.)

2. Copy the entire "/video" folder to your desktop.

3. Now connect your phone via USB and copy the "/video" folder to your phone memory. Not your external sd card but your phones internal memory (I made a folder on my phone called "RomsKernelsFixes" for such files) Now disconnect your phone.

4. Use RootExplorer (found in Market) and go to the file on your phone (the "/video" folder) you copied from your computer. Long press the "/video" folder. Then chose "copy".

5. Now go to the "system/media" folder on your phone. Its in the first menu on RootExplorer. Paste the "/video" folder into the "system/media" folder (you may have to click the "enable R/W" button at the top).

6. Now reboot! You should have the TV shutoff animation.

Now for the audio. Same method. Start in the extracted ROM.zip This time the file is in the "system/media/audio/ui" folder. Its called "shutdown.ogg" I believe. Copy this file to your desktop and use the same method above for the "/video" file. But this time you paste "shutdown.ogg" to the "system/media/audio/ui" folder. Viola! Reboot. (you may have to delete the old "shutdown.ogg" first)

You now have the TV shutoff video and audio.

I may be incorrect about which ROM has it. But whichever does...that is how you go about taking it and putting it in any ROM you want.

Hope this helps someone.

[Epic 4G General] mordant23:
Just to make sure I understand, you want to use your Epic using an existing wifi network. I'm using linux mint main edition 11 (gnome) on my computer and Gingerbreat EE03 ROM on my Epic. Even if the specific instructions don't work on your builds, the general idea should work.

Connect your Epic to existing wi-fi network:

1. Go to Settings > Wireless and Network > Wi-Fi Settings

2. Place a check mark next to "Wi-Fi"

3. In the bottom section there are a list of Wi-Fi networks. Choose the wi-fi network you want.

4. Enter password if necessary.

You're done. In the future, you'll connect automatically to this network. All you'll have to do is go to the notification bar and turn on wi-fi to connect. You will need to turn off 4g but your phone may do that automatically.
