[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] T-Macgnolia:
CWM wipes are suppose to be sufficient to install a new Android ROM and not have issues. But you have to do a full wipe which means doing a wipe of your data partition, cache partition, system partition, and boot partition. Also you have to go to advanced and wipe your Delvik cache, this is a full wipe.

I personally still run a Task 29 as I know it wipes every thing plus it re formats your NAMD memory too. But that is just me.

Remember this and it might help you out. Now remember this is a very generalized description.

Data is your personal information.

Cache is your settings and any other cached information.

System is your ROM

Boot is your Lenuix kernel

Now you will probably get a different answer from nearly everyone as it really is a personal preference I think.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malybru:
Hi

You are correct in that you should wipe your phone clean before installing a new ROM.

I usually wipe data, partition, and dalvik in cwm then install new ROM, and this is generally enough. :)

I did, however, read somewhere that too many task 29 will eventually damage your phone, but don't quote me on that...

Save your task29 for when you encounter problems with a new ROM and you want to go back and do a thorough clean.

Edit:

HA HA T-Macgnolia you beat me to it.

Curse my slow typing :)

I wish you could remember where you read this as I would be very interested in reading it. PM me if you remember it or come back across it. :cool:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deletemyaccount:
Ah I see, thanks for the replies! Does doing a full wipe before installing a new ROM speed things up? I was trying out a bunch of ROMs and after opening a few programs things started to go really slow, but after I ran a task 29 and installed the same ROM from before I haven't noticed as many slow downs.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jonny68:
I have my HD2 over a year now and in that time ive only ever done one Task 29 and my phone is fine,CWM is fine for wiping when you are flashing a new build on your phone.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malybru:
The idea of wiping data ,partition and dalvik is to clear out all the old bits of data etc. from previous ROMS and therefore starting again with a clean slate.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DooDle78:
Excellent info! I will "task29" mine before next flash!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] T-Macgnolia:
I just want to let you know if you run a Task 29 it will remove MAGLDR and CWM or cLK and CWM which ever one you use to boot Android. So you will have to reflash these when you run a Task 29.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jonny68:
you really don't have to mate you can easily do all of that in CWM
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] UglyKidJoel:
Is there any way of fooling apps into believing they're getting the permissions

they believe they're entitled to. Eg. a silly camera app that has fine (gps) location

rights and phone id, the list would go on. I mean before marketing companies

would employ all sorts of dodgy tricks to get this info(tool bars, you could never delete)

and now they get it no problem an no one seems to even question it. What I'm getting at is...

there must be a way of sending some sort of generic

information an not maybe say cut the cord entirely so to say. It's not like these

companies are telling us where this info is going (fine gps location) or

who is using it (phone state & id) or who they selling it to (discover phone accounts).

And yes I'm sure I'm in no way the first to have pondered it but i really hope i'm

not.

Hi!

I'm from Hungary, and there is no apps like setCPU, root explorer in the Market. And no paid apps. How can I fix it. I use Floyo.
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Adapt0r:
Try to contact developers directly. For the Root Explorer email is support@speedsoftware.co.uk
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] bugonline:
Search for set cpu on the xda forums, it is free for xda forum users.
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] kecil26:
the easy way is using market enabler..market enabler able to fake ur id..so fake ur phone id like u are from US@Verizon or others and you'll have all that app u want from market..trust me,i've already done it :D

No,im not from hungry..but i have same problem like yours..using my country (Malaysia) ID..most of app didnt appear on market..i used market enabler to change my id to another country and voila!! all app appear even app that i've never seen before.:D try it..i fake my id to US with Verizon carrier.
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] gigamega:
Root Explorer was just an example, it's a system app in Floyo, and app2sd is native.

Thanks for the tip!! I'll try it. :D

Ja ami kell azt lekapom pandaappról, de azért kényelmesebb Markettel. Nem gyakran fut össze az ember itt magyarokkal. Tényleg baromi kicsi a magyar androidos közösség. Pláne aki ki is aknázza a benne rejlő lehetőségeket roottal custom ROM-mal. Mindenki csak egyszerűen vesz egy iPhonet, az népszerűbb, és könnyebb kezelni. Hát szomorú. :S Amúgy kösz.

EDIT: 'Are u hungry?' was just a joke. It's because some of the americans don't know where (or what) it is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jj6AQCMLUNc It's the most famous video.
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] kecil26:

The solution is simple: Disable a2sd,install the apk and enable a2sd back.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] tarunongo:
How to do it?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mihir287:
From adb shell or terminal emulator

To disable

I Have the same problem here.

Every time I try to install any APK that is around 10Mbs or larger (Download to SD fro direct link and try to install), my phone just reboots.

The main difference is that I'm using stock rom (2.2.1 P500h) with franco kernel v13 (13h). Download cache have always have > 60Mbs free and I have 45Mbs of internal memory free (With 55Mbs I had the same results).

If anyone can explain how the install process works (So I can know if I need more memory somewhere) or have any solution, I should be thankful.

Thanks guys!

Hi,

I've recently overclocked my HTC Desire HD using clockworkmod with this link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=835616

After that, my WiFi suddenly stopped working. It could connect, scan; everything, except for browsing and going on the market, things that need an internet connection. (Yes, I did use other things like my iPad and it did work)

Then I tried to overclock through fastboot and adb with the same link. What happened then was that my WiFi died completely; it wouldn't even turn on. Only thing it did was saying "Error" (Actually it was "Fout" in Dutch, but would probably be "Error" if it was English).

Then I did what this topic said:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=993981

I flashed the new file and my overclock did change; the max is now ~1.2 ghz.

But my WiFi still doesn't work. It turned back to how it was in the first stage; It can be turned on and off, scan; do everything that it normally would, only apps that need an internet connection won't work.

Anyone can help me?

Edit: I already tried a hard reset, and it doesn't work. My WiFi and overclock state doesn't change after a hard reset.

Edit 2: I FIXED MY PHONE!! Finally. So no need for you guys to help me anymore :P. And please don't say I didn't try hard enough, because I've spent at least 10 hours in this problem. (Yes, I am a noob :))

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashleyayling:
I have been having this exact same problem since upgrading to Android Revolution HD (Gingerbread versions).

At the moment, the only fix I can find is to enter:

In a terminal window everytime I connect to a new WiFi network.

If anyone can find a permanent solution to this issue it would be greatly appreciated.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BroodjeBami:
That's weird. I'm running Android Revolution HD since yesterday and I didn't have any WiFi problems. If I were you, I would try to reflash. Also, have you tried to flash the recommended radio in the thread? I think that one of these 2 things should work.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashleyayling:
I've tried numerous full wipes, different radios (including the recommended one) and still cannot get it to work without entering that terminal command.

I believe there are a few people with the same problem, yet it only seems to affect UK mobiles :/ ....

So ive been thinking its not past my 14 days yet still wanting an iphone instead of the thunderbolt... ive never owned a iphone. period im thinking about switching to the iphone any reasons i shouldnt ?

Ive always had an android device or blackberry...

Im just curious....? i have 3 more days left...
[Thunderbolt General] ohgood:
go get one and try it ! this is what trial periods are for. :)

after android 2.3, ios was too confined for me. wp7 impossibly so.
[Thunderbolt General] cjmcmillion:
dont get me wrong im a huge fan of the android devices no matter what problems they might have since i root my device the very second it turns on...

Just thinking about switching ... just need some views about this to help me decide
[Thunderbolt General] inzandity:
Well seeing as the iphone 5 will land in either june or september, you might be disappointed if you buy a 4 and it comes out just a couple months later....

I've owned iphones on att and I am really liking the tbolt over my iphone 4.

IPhone layout your going to get bored with quick. Unless on your android device your not using any Widgets then it should be good switch. I had the iPhone when it came out and after a week or so I got bored of it. Just fyi.
[Thunderbolt General] m00nshake:
The reasons why others would not want to switch to an IPhone might not matter to you, but for me, I'm a flash junkie, i like customizing my phone and keeping up with the development community here on XDA. I am not a fan of ITunes or being forced into a corner to use one kind of app, one kind of homescreen, and last i checked, IPhones don't have Adobe Flash. If you want a main stream phone for the masses and don't care to customize then the IPhone might be perfect for you... But for me, I've had Android devices since the first G1 and I'm not going Apple...well... Ever.
[Thunderbolt General] cjmcmillion:
i know- my phones usally stay stock look since i can never compromise on changing it i end up changing it back then the process goes all over again... i flash roms like crazy then get bored and unroot my device then root again - its crazy

Not sure why you would ever un-root?

fF
[Thunderbolt General] cjmcmillion:
im no dev but i wish i could be... i love the android devices and rooting them i really dislike the one click root method... give me adb root method any day... i know how to jailbreak ipods im sure it would be the same method on the iphone which would solve the changing of the display in some way... ive only owned a motorola droid 1 traded up to the thunderbolt to see how it would be... no complaints beside battery problem

Im crazy - i just enjoy the rooting process lol ! :D

Ask yourself if you can live without 4G LTE and, if so, give iPhone a try. Competition is good as it spurs innovation and keeps prices down.

I currently own two Android devices and would gladly swap one out for an iPhone 5 with 4G LTE for the experience.

[Thunderbolt General] Dbagjones:
One word: iTunes.

I guess if you're ok with having to have/use iTunes for syncing & updating, then maybe that's the way to go. Personally, I don't want that *ss Steve Jobs telling me what I can and can't do with my phone. Or that I'm holding it wrong.
[Thunderbolt General] cjmcmillion:
i have itunes - just wish i could sync the music to my thunderbolt ive been afraid to try it...
[Thunderbolt General] Paulb787:
u cant sync the music to ur thunderbolt but you can take your library and move to ur sd card. There are also programs that can export songs from ipod/iphone to hard drive which can be moved.
[Thunderbolt General] vr4turboripn:
I've had iPhones as well as many others. The thunderbolt is my first android and I LOVE it. I can't ever see myself using an iPhone again.
[Thunderbolt General] capflya:
Get winamp... Install it on your computer and it will pull all the songs from itunes and add it to the "winamp library". Then you can put winamp on your phone and sync. I have an ipod touch 32gb and I haven't taken it off my sound dock at home since I got my thunderbolt.

Check it out online, pretty good program. Another cool thing is you can sync over wifi with your phone, no need for a cable. Probably faster with a cable but if it's just like one or two songs it might be quicker/easier to wifi sync it.
[Thunderbolt General] Jrocker23:
Also look into double twist on the pc http://www.doubletwist.com/ . It will sync itune with almost any android phone.

Works really well and they have a double twist app as well
[Thunderbolt General] IISiDeK1CKII:
Or use audiogalaxy, which you can have your entire music library on your phone, without taking up any space.

Let's be real though, if you buy an iPhone now you are going to seriously regret it. Why? I was in your shoes, let me explain:

I was the proud owner of a Droid Incredible for the longest time, and when the iPhone 4 came out, I just HAD to have it. I went, blew my upgrade and cherished my new iToy. But, our relationship soured as fast as It had matured. The screen was too small for me, the DINC's screen was 3.7" and it dwarfed the iPhone's screen. I missed my widgets, I missed my ROMs, I was too worried about it breaking, I hated having to pay for VZ navigator, I hated the death grip, I missed my gingerbread keyboard, I missed XDA.

Now, Imagine going from a 4.3" phone to a 3.5" screen. Imagine losing simultaneous data/voice. I know you're probably thinking the grass in greener on the other side, but I can assure you, if you get the iPhone 4 you will be sorry. Even if you know you LOVE the apple ecosystem, wait for the next iteration in June, but don't get last year's tech, you'll be sorry.
[Thunderbolt General] cjmcmillion:
Ok thank you i will try that for sure
[Thunderbolt General] cjmcmillion:
I believe that just put the icing on the cake for me... i love the android os dont get me wrong lol- apple has a solid device ive said this over and over in my head

thinking small square brick (apple) then looking at the thunderbolt hey im zeus with a bolt in my hand ( HTC )... it always helps to get other points of views and i thank everyone i believe i will stick it out just wish i could make roms now... thank god i love to adb root... ewww one click root :eek:
[Thunderbolt General] cjmcmillion:
Its a keeper then - thanks everyone on your views expressed...
[Thunderbolt General] nosympathy:
the only thing I can say I miss about my iphone 4, was having the phone's screen on for 5-6+ hours and only dropping 20-25% battery.

I could go a whole day doing twice as much as what I do on my thunderbolt and still have 80% left, and no care in the world to charge it.

that I miss, but I will take an android phone over iOS anyday.
[Thunderbolt General] sublimaze:
I may be the only dissident here, but I suggest you check out the iPhone. You're still in your trial period, so you really have nothing to lose. And since you're not in a 4G area, your internet speeds will be the same with iPhone.

I had jailbroken iPhones for 2 years and was very pleased with them, but I got bored and switched to android. I still think iPhone is a much better "entertainment" device. The iPhone game library completely blows android out of the water. Yes, there are a few good games for android but most are simply ports of iPhone versions. If you don't mind using iTunes, iPhone is an excellent music & video device. The iPhone 4 camera system is arguably the best available on any phone, and the retina display is better than any other LCD out there.

You can't install a completely different ROM on iPhone, but you can customize the UI to your liking with themes & such from Cydia. You can't tweak the cpu speeds or undervolt like you can on android, and you can't get widgets on it.

If you use your phone primarily for talking/text, email & browsing the net, and you like to tweak every last setting on it, you're better off with android. If you like to play games on your phone & you don't mind using iTunes to manage your phone, you might be better off with iPhone. You'll never know until you try it
[Thunderbolt General] trizzle21:
True i recently got a thunderbolt and my girlfriend got an iphone 4,so I had personal time with the iphone. One thing I could say is that the os is ****ing polish I mean everything is smooth and polish very pretty. Also transition from Apps to home to apps is smooth with alot of ****ing animations and not a slow down nothing. But playing with my thunderbolt and comparing similar Apps you can tell iphone version of Apps are more refine even using the Internet the web pages are more clear and vibrant than android. But got bored within a few hours because after being amazed by all that smoothest and pretty animation it Becomes old and boring you can only costumize a little bit of stuff. But my thunderbolt is amazingly fast too but it's not as polished as the iphone and the animation is okay but can't compare to iphone but that's not the reason me and all the guys here got the thunderbolt, no its because of the freedom thanks to those great developers and customization. Wow you can turn your android phone into anything, I mean I customize mine so much people doesn't even realize if its android running on tb. Am not going to be bored with this phone for awhile. You can always count on the developers when htc and verizon doesn't update your phone anymore because the developers here got your back. With the thunderbolt you always have the new releases and updates. At first like me your gonna fall for the animations and smoothness but trust that all iphone got going for it after a couples days youll be bored as hell. Unless your like all the other million brain dead idiots who got it. Lol jus jk.

im keeping it id rather be up to date with tech then roll back with iphone 4 -

yes iphone has a more colorful display and better battery life and a smaller design frame but

im sticking it out since i know more about android devices i recently went back to the verizon

store to tinker around with one sorta got bored with my poor thunderbolt was whining lol play with me lol

- little humor

so yes im keeping my thunderbolt -
[Thunderbolt General] sublimaze:
cool. i proly sounded like i was hating on the tbolt, but i wasn't. i just thought you might want to try a different experience. i love my tbolt and i wouldn't trade it for anything

[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Why the bionic. I just came from the Droid x and a locked bootloader is terrible!
[Thunderbolt General] sublimaze:
yeah, i would switch only if the bootloader isn't locked, which proly won't happen
[Thunderbolt General] glorysk87:
i owned an iphone for 2 years...i now have a thunderbolt. i don't think i could ever switch back.

ios is going to feel so incredibly locked down and confining if you switch from android.
