[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivona7:
Thanks for the reply...I have HSPL 2.08, it was fully charged, and was flashing radio 2.12. I was planing to flash a custom rom after words. I've tried about 8 usb ports on my computer, and always the same thing - endless connect/disconnect game, or not connected at all... If I get lucky - it will turn out to be only usb cable, but if I'm not and if it is usb port on my HD2 - I'm doomed, I might as well throw it to the garbage, cause replacement of the motherbord cost as much as new phone :eek: ... And, I'm afraid - that's the strongest possibility, I never had a problem charging a phone before this, but a member here explained me that usb port on HD2 has 4 pins, 2 for charging and 2 for data transfer. And that it seems - my data pins are ****ed.. :confused: ... So, anyway, I'm gonna try flashing this radio and new rom from sd card, but how am I gonna charge my phone now, in order to do that (I've been trying to establish connection to pc from my bootloader all night, so battery must be low by now) cause when it's turned on and put to charge warning comes up on that black screen: Software update failed, please try again - and the led for charging battery never turns on ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Macgnolia:
Yeah it sounds like your USB port on your HD2 is bad. If your HD2 is still under warranty I flash the official stock ROM via SD card so you are back to complete stock and good for warranty repair. Also so you know if you bought your HD2 secound hand if it was still under warranty when you bought it the warranty is transferable.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivona7:
Ok people, I've sorted it out ... Lucky me - no faulty usb port on HD2, no faulty cable, and, no faulty HD2 ... I've flashed a different radio from sd card, and also rom, and now - connectivity with my pc is - never better ... Even ActiveSync is working like it hasn't been in 6 months, hahahhhh ... Point is - it was my pc punishing me for playing with it's registry, few nights before ... I was really confused, cause HD7 had excellent connectivity with my pc, but HD2 really bad, so I really thought there was something wrong with my beloved HD2 ... Than, I remembered I've messed with my registry the other night, and deleting some non-existing pocket pc paths in it... So, I repaired my windows on pc, and now everything works like a charm .... What can I say - curiosity can have very high price, sometimes .... But - fortunately, I'm as lucky, as it gets :p ...

My screen has wobbled since I bought it, but unfortunately I didn't have the common sense to get it replaced during the 30 day trial period. It's been getting worse, to the point that it wobbles even with the keyboard out, and when tapping the screen it makes a clicking sound as it hits the back part of the phone.

Has anyone developed a fix for this? I am not averted to opening the phone up if it's not super difficult.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
Nobody has tried to fix it and if you take a look at the slide mechanism you'll see why, there is no way to tighten it.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] incisivekeith:
I had this issue on two of the first Epics within the first 30 days. It was disappointing how they could have those issues on such a large number of phones. I didn't come across any solution while looking for one. If you can get it replaced somehow, and get one that doesn't wobble, try for that.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazinazn:
I took mine to the sprint store and I watched the tech disassemble my whole phone. He tried to tighten the mechanism but it didn't help at all. So I started talking to him about the problems I've been having about not being able to update my PRL or profile and the poor battery life I've been having since updating to EC05 and ended up ordering a replacement. It will be a refurb but I decided to roll the dice and hope that I get a phone that isn't as bad as my phone when it comes to screen wobble. Drives me crazy when I have the phone closed and it teeters like an unstable table when I'm using the touch screen.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeerChameleon:
I bricked my phone 2 days ago and got a new replacement for free and no more wobble

my old one wobbled like crazy which i had since it came out and one of the first people to get it..

So the newer builds definitely have improved sliders

i can confrim this cause all my family has epics and non of theme wobbled like my first phone and they all got them like 4 to 6 months after it came out

my new phone doesnt wobble at all now

my old one did even tho i never dropped it or i was never rough with it

the new one is great :D

Looks like you got a new refurb one

good luck and hopefully no wobble :D

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] othan1:
I gave up on trying to get replacements. The one I have now has a wobble but hasn't gotten any worse than the day I opened it.

I don't use cases, but I tried one at the store and it actually stopped the wobble. Get a case as a workaround?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blankrubber:
Within a couple of months my screen would wobble from front-to-back when open. It hasn't gotten any worse and I've had my Epic since a week after release here in the U.S. I honestly wouldn't worry about it too much, especially since there's not much you can do about tightening it.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] V1cmlb:
U guys don't get capped/restricted for using too much data??
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sunakujira:
Totally depends on your plan you are taking.

If your max data per month is 1GB than if you exceed, you get charged extra.

If you have unlimited data plan, you are unlimited without any charges
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
the question is not correct, as in tethering always works with the phone.

whether your cell phone mobile will charge you extra that's will depend on them and see if they can detect the difference when you are using data over the phone vs using the data through a phone.

some others does not

so it all depends on the phone company you are using

Propibly a stupid question but i rooted my phone a while back and it is still s-on and i'm not sure if i'm going to s-off so i was wondering is it safe to use unrevoked again on my phone with out wiping data and cache and by that way flash cwm 3.0.0.5?

Oo and sorry for my english hope you understand what i'm trying to ask :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
You can't root an already rooted phone, doesn't work and can mess everything up so you have to start again, unless you go S-Off ofc.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runarorn:
I thought so

So i think i have to go s-off atleast to get the newest cwm.

But i don't know much about s-off and what i get from doing it so it's a bit scary :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crendot:
Try Rom-manager from the Market!

With it you can update, very easy now stress no need for s-off:-P
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
But it is a temporary fake-flash - next time you reboot, you get the previous version.

For permanent update either S-OFF....

or some people said they succeeded with using the same version of unrEVOked for flashing the update, as the version they used for rooting. Just select a custom image.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Yes use unrevoked to flash it. No problem. Nandroid just in case.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ed Roid:
If you want to know more about S-Off just look here. Just read everything carefully, when you have understood you can do it.

From doing it you will get several things. Of course you will be able to flash the recovery you want directly with fastboot. You will also be able to flash another radio or another hboot. In particular you could be interested in changing hboot if you want a different partition layout, everything is explained in the link above.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runarorn:
But if it messes up i might not get into recovery and i need to ruu it right? And does a nandroid take backup of recovery?

And thanks Ed Roid i will look into that :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haphim:
Via other information found on this board, I was able to start up my new Atrix without setting up a MotoBlur account. However, I see that I can't create any new Contacts, can't create new Calendar events, and can't get updates.

Is there a way around all of this, or do I have no choice but to create a MotoBlur account?

And in any case, I most certainly do NOT want my personal information shared with Motorola or anyone else - so how do I address that? Do I somehow restore the stock apps? Do I have to install new apps to replace the Contacts, Calendar, Email, SMS, etc...? If so, what exactly needs to be replaced, and what are the recommended top of the line apps to do it? (I don't mind paying)

--- If you have bricked your HTC Desire Z or G2. I have a method that is sure to work! In the past I bricked the same device and I have found a way around it. Follow these steps and post and thank if it has worked for you! ---

How To Unbrick A HTC Desire Z or G2!​

Step 1:

If your device is rooted and flashed with "ClockworkMod Recovery" and "S-Off"you want to start by holding down the

Volume Down Button

and holding the

Power Button

for about 7 seconds.

Step 2:

You will suddenly be welcomed with the

HBOOT Menu

. Scroll down and select Recovery.

Step 3A:

You will then be showed the "ClockworkMod Recovery" Menu.

(Read the message below!)

Step 3B:

First you will need to

Factory Reset

and

Clear Cache Partition

!

**If you have a backup or restore point continue to Step 4A if not you will need to install an alternate ROM and proceed to Step 5 or Factory Reset which will only reset for that ROM. For another possible solution a read end of post!**

Step 4A:

Now from here you will of course scroll down to Backup and Restore, select restore and select your point of restore!

Step 5:

Now if you have another ROM located on the SD Card of your phone you can scroll down to

install zip from sdcard

and find the zip file (gapps if required) and install all of the following and reboot!

Step 6:

Enjoy your UnBricked device!

---Alternate Solutions---

​

-- Fix Permissions and reboot.

-- Factory Reset and Reboot

Am not really sure... I've never had this issue before. Well do you know how to use ADB? If you do can't you flash clockwork again maybe that could fix the problem. I really don't know how to use ADB since I used Unforgivens way of s-off.

If your phone is bricked then you won't be able to get into hboot at all. So it would be helpful if you would consider changing the title etc of your posting. This won't help a phone which really is bricked.

... Well its a simi-brick. I guess the titile should be changed but not saying that the thread isn't helpful
[G2 and Desire Z General] I AM VS4:
This method has worked for me in the past and there is a possibility this can work! So "Steviewevie" I wouldn't post a method I haven't tested in the past! I have Unbricked 2 devices with this same method. There is ways around everything. So "dragokld" keep trying and try the method "lainvalenajr" has given. I will check for more methods and experimenting. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I have tried this method, but I cannot reach the CWM menu, all I can do is try the standard HBoot recovery from PC10IMG.zip, but it dies at RADIO_V2 step after many Fail-PU on all other steps: what can I do?

My DZ was rooted, flashed with CWM and Virtuous ROM. I have a nandroid backup on the SD. It died today with "can't mount" error messages after a freeze and reboot.

Also tried Factory Reset from HBoot, but it hanged at the "androids on skate" screen forever..
[G2 and Desire Z General] TyrannosaurusFencingChamp:
These instructions are just "how to flash a ROM" or at best, what to do after a failed flash.

I don't want to sound like a jerk, I think it's great whenever someone takes the time to help others, but these instructions will not work for a bricked phone.

Hi, I have an unrooted Desire Z on Bell. I recently experienced a hard lock and upon battery pull, discovered that my phone would not boot up (frozen at the htc screen). I can hold volume - and the power button to get into the boot menu, but can't seem to perform a factory reset or enter recovery mode. Recovery brings me to the screen it should initially (with the green circle/arrow symbol) and then the screen goes blank and the phone vibrates a total of seven times before...nothing happens. Selecting factory reset just hangs up the Hboot menu.

All I can really do is go into Fastboot or IMAGE CRC, but don't see any options there. Any one have any ideas?

I was using CM7 for about a month, without any reboots at all.

After rebooting i only get to see the lockscreen and after that the phone just reboots. I have tried everything there is, but with no luck.

It seems i can not revert the phone back to stock reco, rom etc. either, because first i need a working system to do that.
