Well the sad truth is that many times who answer your email doesn't know all the specifics of the phone... and i may be wrong but I really believe that if you ask "Does my phone have Gorilla Glass?" and the guy doesn't know he is not gonna make research about it... You have bought the phone already... He flips the coin.. head... "No it doesn't"... lol...
[HTC Inspire 4G] buddy17:
i wasnt just talking about the email....none of the specs ever posted for the phone have ever mentioned it having gorilla glass. Your average joe isn't the one making spec sheets so i would have guessed them to advertise something big like gorilla glass (especially the way people fall for putting names on certain parts of a phone, apple)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Roland_D:
Actually, I could be wrong, but I didn't see so much advertising about the inspire generally... probably due to the fact that its a copy of the DID....... even though I know what you mean...

No Mention of GPS?

I know one of the major reasons I spent money to replace my Captivate and move to the Inspire is a consistently working GPS. I actually shipped my Captivate back to be repaired and said don't send it back this time if the GPS doesn't work. Lets see what Best Buy does. After moving to this phone I have to say I really do like it much better than the Captivate. It feels solid while the Captivate felt a little flimsy. I will give the Captivate its due though, it had better battery life, more storage (I didn't even think when I installed an application, in the Inspire I have to be careful because when I first plugged in the SIM and the market tried to reload all my apps I ran out of storage and had to manually remove stuff I really didn't need). Also the Captivate speaker was much better.

I originally wanted an HTC Aria to replace my Captivate because when the speaker in my captivate went bad I was loaned an Aria but the screen was just too small for me. It was an excellent phone though for the 1 month I used it.

If GPS was working on the Captivate I would still be using it rather than the Inspire though because other than this main flaw I really didn't need to change. I use the GPS on bike rides and walks with my wife. We also like the navigation option when it comes to directions to new places since we don't want to pay $200 for a DVD to update our car.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gmanunited:
I have mentioned the GPS. It is definitely the #1 Reason for me going from the Cappy to Inspire. And the Inspire has not disappointed I have even gotten locks inside very well covered buildings. Night and Day with the GPS....

I agree there would have been no reason to change devices other than the GPS issues. The 4g is really 3g.....

Hi,

I have a HD2 running gauner's Desire HD ROM (magldr), and I want to try and windows 7 ROM but i cannot find any way to transfer my texts and contacts over.

Anyone find any ways to do this ?

Hello, I managed to install the actual CM6 on my X10i(flashed to .58), but now I have the battery drain Problem... lost 20% in 40 minutes... :S

Flashed it actually down to .54, doesn't look much better...

yes, I did read this advice:

, but here's my problem... I have no plan, how to reinstall the OS, google and Forum search did not help... tried SEUS, tells me, I have the actual software and does nothing more...

so, I would be really thankfull, if someone could post a noob-friendly tutorial for this...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlpereira1987:
When you connect to SEUS, once it detects the phone, it will notify you about your current OS and it will also give you the option to reinstall the OS, which will result in the loss of all your apps. You will also lose root. So you'll have to do that again.

But before you do anything, give the ROM some time to settle down. Many people on wolf's ROM have observed better battery life after its been allowed to discharge a couple of times.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aval1392:
It has also been said that the .58 basebrand could have possible quick battery drain.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Had this issue too, the only way I found to resolve it was to start from scratch; i.e. back up, re-flash from seus, root and so on. Works a treat, though it's a pain...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlpereira1987:
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't is just easier to go to xrecovery, factory reset, wipe all stats and caches and reinstall the ROM. Is there any advantage to reflashing 2.1 first?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Tried just re-flash, no joy; still high battery drainage. I've found that in a few roms, if you re-flash the same one you get issues...!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nordgrot:
yeah, debranded to .54 yesterday, first seemed to be the same, but now, 7 hours without recharge, 59% left, listened a bit to music, did some installations and some short calls in this time... so, it's close to the unmodified performance and not critical anymore... gues, with the cracked bootloader we will get an update soon, with no more problems like this :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BinaryXeroMedia:
My battery is fine and I used. 54 BASEBAND. I SUGGEST FLASHING THAY BASEBAND ON. And you should have no problems. I have had my phone off charge for 6 hours now and I have been on the phone, listened to music, watched a few video's and been on XDA app and my battery has only dropped 31% so mine is fine. Hope it works and if not PM me and I will see what I can do

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlpereira1987:
you will have to manually place those xrecovery files in the respective folders using root explorer. Thats the only way to make it work.

It could be that you have a similar chipset that my x10 came with.

these are usually defunct and should have the mother board swapped by SE.

If you have problem with the update via SEUS because it says that you have the latest update and wont lets you reinstall the OS, you should try the following

1. Go Here and download the .504 version and flash it via flash tool.

2. Boot your phone and finish the settings wizard.

3.Shut it down

4. Run SEUS and update to .435

I hope that helps for any upcoming problems.

When installing android, how much RAM do you get if you install nand or sd? I've heard you get more on sd android right?

I am wanting to write a script to change my UV without using Voltage Control, but I have no idea how. Could someone point me to instructions, or possibly write it for me? Thanks in advance.
[Captivate General] Dani897:
voltage control will write the scrpit and put it in the /system/etc/init.d directory but you need to set that directory to read/write, i use root explorer for this. you can view the script in a text editor via root explorer and you will see what it is doing if you want to mimic it.

But isn't that just the boot settings? Or are the apply now settings there too? I'm trying to change it with tasker.

oh, mis understood. ok then what is wrong with using voltage control? :confused:

ill look into it. not sure off the top of my head,

edit: wait what am i saying i know this. the script is the same. putting it in init.d just is a place to make the phone run it on boot. you can copy that script anywhere and edit it for alternate setting and execute it yourself.

[Captivate General] Dani897:
there is or used to be an application called sl4a (scripting layer for android) i dont know where to get it but there is a market app called scripter that is essencially the same. if you put the script on the sd card and import it into scripter and it will give you the ability to shortcut to it, you can use taster to open the shortcut automatically under whatever situation you are changing settings or just put the shortcut on the desktop and open it like an application. you should be able to give scripter su permissions to run it. scripter is nice to have because it also adds a support for all file extensions to android. any file extension that doesnt run in another app will just be tagged as a scripter file so you can download any file type in the stock browser of send and recieve them in mms and email with the stock apps.

also i dont know much about scripting, im still learning. i understand the commands and this one is simple just echos some numbers into configuration files, but im not sure of what can be used within the script. it may be possible to add an su command at the start of the script or start each command "sudo". not sure though, if this doesn't work then scripter is definately the way to go.

[Captivate General] sixstringsg:
When I tried launcher pro activities, it force closed anyway. And I tried su once, but ill try again.

[Captivate General] Dani897:
sorry. about that, search google for sl4a. that is what tasker expects you to have when you launch scripts anyway. that is why it wants you to have the script in /sdcard/sl4a/scripts

i would assume sl4a would work better in combinations with tasker. hope that it works! ill try to find it.

running the script from the stock file manager or some other meathods will run scripter and ask for su permissions but i have been trying it as well to see what trouble you are having and for some reason when the script is started by tasker scripter doesn't get launched. i assumed it would work because in most situations scripter acts just like sl4a but in this case i was wrong.
