[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thklinge:
I don't use any protective skins on the screen even though SE bundles one as it reduces reponsiveness (or so I've experienced with my GFs X8, my Nexus One and others). It also adds too much resistance for my liking.

I don't use a case or pouch either. It's just too much of a hassle to drag it in and out. Some semi-hard cases scratch the phone after many inserts and pull outs and then you're back to square one.

If it gets a ding or a scratch, who cares? It's may be worth a bit less when I sell but I can't be bothered about that. It's more important that when I use it it both looks it's best (and that means no skins) and that its ready to go the second it's out of my pocket, and that means no case or pouch.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
hey guys.

what could cause the phone/dialer to open up on its own?

for example, when I install a new app and lookout scans it, the dialer opens. every once in a while for no reason, the dialer opens. when the phone first boots up, the dialer opens.

this used to happen before with an earlier rom I had and I don't remember how/what fixed it.

any ideas where to start looking?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
Making my helpful rounds :-). Try getting rid of lookout first. I'm willing to bet you its the culprit.

~ d3rk
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
i've had Lookout since last year and this was not happening. i'm 100% its something to do with an apk...maybe even the phone .apk itself as i changed it out with a custom one made by JsChiSurf...

i'll look into it when I get a chance. in the meantime, any other suggestions welcome!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
Ahhh gotcha. You're using a custom phone apk mod? Did it start after you started using it?

~ d3rk
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
no progress so far guys.

first I uninstalled LookOut and continued using my custom .apk. there was no change. the phone dialer kept coming up on its own. mostly when a new program is installed.

so then I removed the phone.apk and htcdialer.apk files and replaced them with the stock rom files. also left LookOut uninstalled. the original dialer would still come up when a new program was installed.

I've sinced re-installed LookOut and no change :-(

any other ideas?

i'm confident it's got to be an app or service that's running that causes it to bring up the dialer...but which one?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpz1100:
I can't help with the problem, but suspect something recently installed is causing this behavior.

My strategy for testing new apps is to always make a backup image first. Over the course of a week, I'll acquire a list of apps that may be of use. One evening a week, after backing up, i'll start installing these apps. Phone will get used for a few days. If no ill effects, I leave things as is, otherwise the backup gets restored, and I try to figure out what caused the issue.

You could try flashing the rom zip for the current rom ontop of itself. If anything in /system got changed, this will take care of it.

actually you have a virus on your mobile and you have never noticed. lmao! what you need is a factory reset. then upgrade to 2.3 OTA. everything will start working again. LOL!!!!

okay, so maybe not do the OTA. lol

As a reminder. one of our Roms we use are made by people in china. I don't trust china people. They can all jump off a tall building or bridge. you know, like what they did in WW2. When they were brain washed that we were evil people. lmao. when in fact they are the evil ones. They do internet attack at us all the time. They also hire people to act like they are normal people making mods that secretly put code in our phones to monitor our communications. also, maybe to install DOS attack scripts to take down our own american based networks.

You all know I'm right. :-D

Sometimes my alarm clock does not show any popup to turn it off!!!

The only way to turn the alarm of is then to turn of the phone!!

The same thing is with the calendar.

What's strange it looks like the phone is changing its mind according to it's mood and sometimes the popup shows on and sometimes it doesn't.

I've found this thread but on my HTC desire Z there is no such option:

Even if it was there, why would the phone behave differently without changing anything in the settings?

So anyone knows what to do?

It really makes me mad when it rings early in the morning and there is no f$#$$popup there.

Hi All...

So after much wait, I decided to jump on the Tablet band wagon.

I opted to get a WiFi only tablet as I had all intentions to Tether my Evo (Rooted).

I am now aware of the Ad-Hoc WiFi issue with the Xoom after doing some research and all i can say is W T F!?.

Is there ANYWAY to get this thing to connect to my WiFi Tether Evo ?

I've downloaded the experimental 3.0 WiFi Tether app from Google code...The Xoom now picks up AndroidTether..but will not connect. Stuck at "Obtaining IP Address"...

I'm close to returning this thing...I was going to wait for the Acer Iconia to drop in a few weeks but got impatient...I might stick to the original plan...

Any Ideas ?

Does the Xoom need to be rooted to get it to connect?

WHATS THE DEAL WITH THIS?!

Thanks. :mad:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Macgnolia:
You do not have to flash HSPL to flash a official ROM but it is a good idea as it does offer a little extra protection from bricking your HD2. Now what version you want to flash is kind of dependent of what version of official ROM you want to flash. I see that you want to flash the 1.43.405.1 ROM, is this the most updated ROM for your HD2 as it is a little older ROM version. If it is you only need to flash HSPL 1.66 or 2.08 if you use this ROM. If it is a updated 3.14 ROM for your HD2 I suggest you use it and flash HSPL 3.03. To flash just hold your volume down button down while powering on to bring up the bootloader (multicolor screen). Next connect your HD2 to your computer via USB cable and wait until the serial in the white bar of bootloader changes to USB then right click on the RUU and select run as administrator and follow the on screen instructions of the RUU. You don't have to run as administrator but I always do just for added reliability.

[Wildfire General] bx19:
i wanted to understand (and let everyone understand) the froyo wildfire bootloader and its other security details, so that someone will root the wildfire finally. Everything needs to be done by sharing the security loop holes of wildfire.

its not an easy task. but i dont really wanted to wait further for rooting.

any suggestions, comments and complements are widely accepted.

everyone who wants to root wildfire share ur information here.

whatever the information u know, post it here

lets get it done.
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
No offense, but, this is such a pointless thread. Why don't you start by telling us what all you know about the new Bootloader? (Technicalities). If it were so easy, I am sure someone would have done it already.
[Wildfire General] bx19:
I'm a newbie and will learn to do that. I posted this thread to share information of wildfire bootloader. If everyone shares whatever he knows, then I'm sure that finally someone roots it. That's the beauty of sharing and unrevealing things. I believe the persons who root and develop apps are also once new bies. So I would like people to support this thread. There s nothing that can be undone. Only its a matter of time. So try to share.
[Wildfire General] krook6023:
Moved to general.

I agree that sharing information is vital to accomplishing mutual goals but asking people for general info about the bootloader or general advice about the root process is not development...hence I moved the topic to general.

Good luck and I hope you are able to learn enough to achieve your goal...that's what XDA is all about.

[Wildfire General] dzull habib:
a little bit of help maybe :D

there are two things that we can aim to achieve root on our widlfires . .

1. downgrade the Hboot to rootable versions (1.01 to 0.80 for eg) reported successful in another htc device in which i don't remember what it was :confused:

2. try to achieve root with the 1.01 Hboot instead (which seems to be harder :eek:)

do not ask me about the technicalities of this options as i am no developer :D like i said, just trying to help :cool:
[Wildfire General] bx19:
yes downgrading wildfire HBOOT 1.01 to 0.80 will make rooting easier, but there is a more chance of bricking.

i remember the other phone which downgraded HBOOT was desire z. watch out this link,

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905261

in that process, observe the path

/data/local/tmp/misc_version -s 1.33.405.5

someone said this on xda,

I own a HTC Desire Z, and I have downgraded my software including Hboot using this method .

I have tried the same thing on my girlfriend wildfire and I managed to obtain temporary root, but when I tried to change "misc_version" to 1.24.405.1 I got this error:

Code:

# /data/local/tmp/misc_version -s 1.24.405.1

--set_version set. VERSION will be changed to: 1.24.405.1

Patching and backing up partition 17...

Error opening input file.

I know that this files are specific for Desire Z, psneuter worked only after I have downloaded from somewhere else (I don't remember where), but maybe someone will manage to edit "misc_version" and make it work on wildfire, then it will be possible to downgrade everything including H-boot.

so if we r working on downgrading the HBOOT, then our target will be to change the version of the "misc_version" to 1.24.405.1

i would prefer to work on downgrading the HBOOT rather than rooting the newer HBOOT. because, if once we have successfully downgraded the HBOOT, we can root, then unroot, then re-root anytime without any limitations.
[Wildfire General] nhnt11:
Lol, its not a problem of patching the HBOOT. The problem is, overwriting the current HBOOT with a patched one. That requires a vulnerability/exploit, which are generally hard to find.

edit: posted this without fully reading the thread, i see you're looking at downgrading as well. what i said is still valid though.
[Wildfire General] bx19:
tell me about exploit / vulnerability

hey are u sure it is not an issue of patching HBOOT. is it only the issue with overwriting the original HBOOT with a patched one. pls reply

and what is meant by vulnerability or exploit in this process. pls describe it.

on march 18th 2011, unrevoked released source for an exploit (zysploit exploit) in 2.2 using github. im giving u the link of it here.

https://github.com/unrevoked/zysploit

the download link of zysploit here:

im also trying to attach the files. and tell me if that zysploit helps us anyway.

hoping to hear.
[Wildfire General] nhnt11:
Yes I'm sure about patching HBOOT. I'm currently using a patched 1.01.1000 HBOOT S-OFF. You should really know what a vulnerability/exploit is before getting into this stuff. Google is your friend. You can't go from total noob to HBOOT exploiter directly.

AFAIK zysploit does not help if your bootloader is completely locked down.

edit: oh and i didnt mean that you ARE a total noob, i said that because you were saying everyone was a noob at some point (which is true, but there IS a learning curve)
[Wildfire General] bx19:
im sorry for going into the details of u. but pls let me know this.

i have seen ur phone details on this thread like below.

Phone: HTC Wildfire

HBOOT - AlphaRev 1.01.1000 S-OFF

Recovery - Clockworkmod 3.0.2.4

Radio: 13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10

ROM: [2.3.3] Locally built CyanogenMod 7 with Darktremor Apps2SD

SDCard: SanDisk 4GB Class 4 (512MB EXT).

urs HBOOT is 1.01 and is S-OFF. and then there is alpharev, which works with rooted phones.

i dont understand really, how a HBOOT 1.01 with S-OFF is rooted and then alpharev is made used. i have seen some others peoples phone details to be exactly like this.

have u used xtc clip to make S-OFF. if it is so, then i heard that u must downgrade to the HBOOT 0.80 to make the phone rooted. also heard that alpha rev is not yet compatible with wildfire. let me know something if u r willing to share.

and google search for exploit gives irrelated data. do u know any specific link to learn about exploits.
[Wildfire General] nhnt11:
The patched HBOOT by AlphaRev is v1.01.1000. However, stock 1.01.1000 CANNOT be replaced by any known methods. AlphaRev replaced my stock 0.80.0002 with their 1.01.1000 PATCHED HBOOT. No, I have NOT used an XTC Clip. And no, only people who have no clue what s-off is would downgrade to 0.80.x to root after s-off. When you're s-off, fastboot lets you flash a custom recovery, which lets you flash a rooted ROM. Done.

A test version of AlphaRev has existed for ages for Wildfire. Just not released, though it should be released soon.

hboot versions

As far as now we have 3 versions of hboot. Making a note of them below along with the associated radio (in official roms)

1st version: hboot 0.80.0002 and Radio_13.45.55.24H_3.35.15.31 (at the time of phone manufacture)

2nd version: hboot 0.80.0007 and Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25 (in august or later)

3rd version: hboot 1.01.0002 and Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10 (came with froyo update in december 2010 or later)

Based on different regions, the hboot may slightly vary in the last number like 0.80.0002 and 0.80.0003

So, remember that. And the above versions are for ASIA---INDIA.
