[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CleveRuse:
My apps like Market n Pandora n just the qualities in general keep changing. Market icon reverts to green n inside I lose transparent aspect. Maybe Pandora doesn't change now that I think... Anyway its annoying. Does anyone know why. Is it cuz it updates w/out me choosing to somehow or a bug. I tried searching this but maybe I shouldn't have limited to virusROM. Not sure if its native to vr or wut
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DetCityCed:
Not sure about Pandora but my market was doing the same thing. I read up on it and was told to reflash the ROM but make sure you backup all data using nandroid. Then after you reflash rename marketupdater.apk to a .bak extension. This will prevent the market from automatically updating. Once u reflash and reboot you can revert back to your old settings and apps using the backup you saved. Hope this helps

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoldenCyn:
the apps get updated so they lose the custom look and feel. no biggie, wait for the next VirusROM release, Im sure all the latest apps will be customized again.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slim6596:
After this happened to me while on my Droid X, I started doing this:

Right after the new ROM first boots, I make sure my root file explorer is installed and has SU permissions.

I navigate to system/app/MarketUpdater.apk

Click on Mount as RW (usually top of screen in your root explorer app)

Long press on the market updater

Tap Rename

Rename same as original, but change the file extension to .bak

I do all of this BEFORE I open the market for the first time after flashing a ROM.

This keeps the market from updating to the latest green version.

Hey everyone,

I recently cooked my own ROM, which can be found here, but there keeps popping up a Force Closed when setting an alarm in the clock application.

Does anyone know how this is possible/how I can fix this?
[LG Optimus 2x] x72GYx:
Problem solved, turns out I accidently deleted the alarm clock .apk just before zipping the ROM.. Hehe.
[HTC Inspire 4G] david032766:
I bought just the Platinum Series case that best buy sales it was a very nice case. GPS friendly could still get a lock inside my house, the inside was lined with a velvet like material and it had a very tight fit. The only thing I didnt like about it was the volume and power buttons were exposed, so I took it back and had them order me a Platinum Defense Series case. It has the rubber around it like the otterbox defender series. The guy at the store said you could use it with or without the rubber.Very nice looking cases .... and they also come with a belt clip.

Suppose to be in on Tuesday so I will let yall know how it is.

Platinum series 34.99

Platinum Defense series 49.99

Rebranded Seidio

Yeah I work at Best Buy and had one for a while, got the Case-Mate Tough Case. It is actually a rebranded Seidio (Innocase) product, and is pretty nice overall. However, the Tough Case is my favorite so far...
[HTC Inspire 4G] tat2me2:
How's about some pictures please...
[HTC Inspire 4G] david032766:
It will be here tomorrow and i will post some pics
[HTC Inspire 4G] bblanski:
I got an open unit from best buy for 17.50. Couldn't even tell it was opened
[HTC Inspire 4G] glitzbd:
Check here for images, I am out of town in OKC, and my Pt Case is at home...
[HTC Inspire 4G] Philanthroman:
I bought this case. It rocks. I like that its convertible. You can go minimal protection to all out invincible. Good choice
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
I have the Platinum Series, and love it. HIGHLY recommended. If done correctly, when removing the bottom cover of this case, it also removes the sim cover. :-)
[HTC Inspire 4G] gmanunited:
I have a platinum case very well designed. Had one for the Captivate too.
[HTC Inspire 4G] intermission:
Any links to this case?
[HTC Inspire 4G] NickiMinaj:
I have one of these. Pauz. And I reallllyyy like it :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] IrishSmash:
For links, go to Best Buy's website and search 'HTC Inspire', they come up.

I have the case and I absolutely love it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thecrazy88:
I have this same case and no complaints here.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
So I know I posted about this case earlier in the thread... But mine just took a tumble down 4 stairs and slid on the pavement. The case took the beating, and the phone is fine. :-) Well worth every penny spent on it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Alteros:
+1 here too. I love the case, I ride my motorcycle with the phone clipped to my belt, never worry about losing it.. Nice fit, secure lock into the case..

I highly recommend it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Otreblada:
This case it is useless if ur using it with and screen protector. It does pull the bottom edges on them. I have use both a Clear Coat and an Skinomi with the same result
[HTC Inspire 4G] thecrazy88:
Since this is a rebranded seidio case can the platinum case be used with the seidio rugged case known now as the convert case.
[HTC Inspire 4G] btj20:
Pt case

On my Inspire 4G, I have the Pt case, with a Zagg screen cover and they work very well together. I don't feel the same damage prevention security I did with my otter on the iphone, but very close. That being said, I know this phone is not separating from the belt lock down case. With the case had a kickstand tho...since the phone doesn't.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
I disagree. I use my case WITH a screen protector. you are being too hasty to put your case on. I was able to reproduce this with mine, but I had to put the casing on pretty quickly to do it.

SIDENOTE: Once you apply your new screen protector, wait 25 minutes or so before putting your case on. This will allow the screen protector to stay adheared to the screen.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kwanbis:
Wow, 35 dollars for the same AMAZON sells for 20?

http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-SURFACE-Inspire-Desire-Black/dp/B004M8RWU2/ref=cm_rdp_product
[HTC Inspire 4G] thecrazy88:
So does anyone know if you can used this case with the siedio rugged case?
[HTC Inspire 4G] pside15:
The one on Amazon doesn't have the belt clip. The Best Buy one comes with the case and the clip. Thus the $15 difference.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kwanbis:
I see. So people actually use belt clips? The only 3 times i tried, it ended badly.

I think amazon sells them with belt clip for 32, and no tax.

If you change your manila language from default language to another language than your sms or mail's notification sound not work.

if this is the case you must change your manila language to default rom's language or fix the some system manilas files.

Thank you, changing it back to english did the trick though e-mail notifications worked fine. Czech language isn't necessary for me, so I'm not gonna change any mannila files just for sure :)

You could fix it with Czech also.

Just add this files that was missed View attachment 571120

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jasonhunterx:
Well i hear a lot of people say that they turned off there lag fix y if isn't it suppose to help them so y would they turn it off
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
Lag fix sometimes is turned off because of conflicts with other programs, at this point there are really only a handful that may have issues, Got to remember, it has only been 5-6 months from when everyone was using roms mostly written with the original RFS vs now we use ext4. (voodoo lagfix). ME ? I still disable lagfix before flashing a new rom......... just a habit and I never get any problems in flashing.......... but then, that is just me
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jasonhunterx:
I read that it slows it down when opening apps is that true?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcaples002:
Turn off before flashing Rome to avoid bricking your device
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
SOFT bricking. and mostly it doesn't even happen, if you going from a 2.2 rom to another 2.2 rom with voodoo enabled, nothing will happen, it'll just save you time from enabling it over again.

It's just a safety precaution, and i don't follow it.

Neither should most people, if they read the instructions and details of the rom their going to flash see if kernel is compatible etc.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdemartino:
If going from a voodoo kernel to another voodoo kernel there is no need to disable. Problems happen when mixing rfs and ext4, as in if u were to flash to a stock kernel over a voodoo one you may end up with misformatted partitions.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] TrevorMcCauley:
Im currently using WP7, Im trying to install Andriod but Im not sure how to do that. Ive been searching around the site for a couple hours and i cant figure this out. I understand how mods and other members dont like hearing noobs like me asking questions but im stuck and in need of assistance. Ive been reading that I have to format my SD Card back to Fat32 or something to get it to work again, im not sure how to do that.

Im trying to downgrade to 6.5 then install andriod, or if I can just go straight to andriod. From what I understand you can install andriod using NAND so that whenever you turn on your phone it boots into andriod instantly. So could someone show me a video or a tutorial that explains how to get rid of WP7 and fix my sd card. Please and thank you fellow XDA peeps!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] cloverpod:
Hey do you have another phone to put your SD card in? I just put the sd card in my old HTC hero and formatted it.

If you have WP7, I'm guessing you have MAGDLR so when you boot your phone hold down the power button until you see the list of boot options, if you put your phone into USB FLASHER you can install android directly.

hope this helps, and I hope I'm right.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Alcatrazx:
You don't have to do so.. you dont need to install win mo 6.5 to migrate to Android ..... What version of MGLDR are you running? is it 1.13? If it's a yes ...

Then

- restart your mobile

- hold the cancel call button (right one on hd2) and hold it ....

- this brings you to a menu ....

- Select USB FLASHER mode ...

Now I am assuming that you got some NAND installer (Android) to do this ... once you are in this mode .... and you are connected to the PC ... you should

- get a pop up and the device central will connect your mobile to the PC

- Now its a mtter of running the RUU which you got to install Android

One more thing re the noob thing you mentioned. We like helping others but noobs typically spam the forum with questions and never say thanks (by pressing thanks button). .

Also they tend to ask the same quesiton over and over again without checking if it has been answered before ...

Make sure that you are not like the norm and show good attitude to your fellow peeps on a forum .... you will soon realise what a lovely community this is ...

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hjhjhj:
Just follow the link below my signature for Leo custom ROM flash tutorials. You shouldn't need to revert to WM to go to Android. task29..don't just reflash.

Imperative!!!! Use task29 to totally clean your phone of any traces of previous ROM flashes before installing Android. Many people encounter phantom issues because they do not task29 to clean out traces of other ROM flashes and then wonder why their phone is having problems no one can figure out how to fix.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shahud:
Hey I was hoping I could get some help with an issue I'm having with texting. I recently rooted my phone and had been using the superclean 2.9 ROM. But after I rebooted it, I went into a force close loop and so I had to wipe everything a re-install 2.9 but ever since then no matter what ROM I use or what kernel I flash I haven't been able to receive or send texts. Everyone I text receives blank texts and I don't receive texts at all. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas/suggestions as to what I can do to fix this. Thanks.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bltl211:
Since you only mentioned trying different ROMS and kernels the other thing to try is flashing a different radio. If you are on an older radio that could be your problem.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shahud:
Thanks that was definitely the problem.
[HTC Sensation] seanthegeek:
Hi,

Unless I'm reading something wrong on the HTC Sensation's specification page, it looks like it does not support HSPA+ or AT&T 3G bands:

Yet Engadget calls it the "HTC Sensation 4G" with HSPA+. There is no mention if it would support AT&Ts network as well.

The next phone I get will have to support AT&T's bands as well, as I don't want to replace it at the end of the merger, if it occurs.

Can someone clarify this situation? Are there two sensations?
[HTC Sensation] Thracks:
The Sensation does not support AT&T's network. So far, the only model that's been produced works for T-Mobile in the US, and T-Mobile only.

As for the HSPA situation, I find it hard to believe that the Sensation doesn't have HSPA+, even though their own site simply says HSPA.
[HTC Sensation] seanthegeek:
Their press release calls it a "4G" device, so I think the spec is a typo.
[HTC Sensation] mark manning:
Why? ATT already said they are gonna give T-Mobile subscribers free phones
[HTC Sensation] seanthegeek:
Yes, but there is no way of knowing what kind of device(s) they will give. For all we know, it could be a windows phone, or a very cheap android device.
[HTC Sensation] alvinmathew88:
Or god-forbid, an iPhone... :p
[HTC Sensation] mark manning:
They said it would be a phone of equal class
[HTC Sensation] Thracks:
A phone of equal class from AT&T would be the Atrix 4G. Pretty sure nobody wants to choose between an encrypted bootloader or being stuck on 2G. :/
[HTC Sensation] seanthegeek:
Well the merger wouldn't complete for at least a year from now, so there's no telling what devices would be offered by then. But yes, AT&T does not have a good track record when it comes to openness; so, I'd prefer something like the G2x to anything AT&T would likely offer. True, I would need to take an AT&T phone eventually if I want to stay up to date, but I'd like to avoid that for as long as possible.
[HTC Sensation] 2real2141:
If im not mistaken, the european version isn't 4g, but it will be released to tmobile USA as the sensation 4g. I'm assuming it will be equiped with a hspa+ radio.
[HTC Sensation] xboarder56:
its 4g acording to htc

http://www.htc.com/www/product/sensation/specification.html

Network5

HSPA/WCDMA:

Europe/Asia/T-Mobile US: 900/AWS/2100 MHz

Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE:

850/900/1800/1900 MHz
[HTC Sensation] Virtue94:
It is equipped with a HSPA+ radio since its capable of 14.4 mbps. HSPA only goes up to 7.2 mbps if I'm not mistaken.
[HTC Sensation] 2real2141:
Right you are. what may be causing confusion, is the fact that on htc's spec sheet it never refers to it as hspa+, nor does it call 14.4Mbs 4g. It's listed next to 3g. Guess they dont consider that 4g speed, which would also explain why tmobile USA is rebranding it as sensation 4g.
[HTC Sensation] t-mizzle:
I asked HTC and they replied that it does not have AT&T 3G bands. However, even if you sign a 2yr contract for the Sensation in summer, there is a lot of time left before AT&T shuts down AWS bands.

When AT&T merged with Alltel it took a while before they shut down Alltel bands and they gave customers comparable smartphones. Chances are, the phones handed out by AT&T will be better then Sensation because the merger won't happen for a while and smartphones age very fast.

The merger is ~18-24 months away. Even phones that will come out in 12 months will be much better than anything that's on the market now.

http://www.att.com/mergers/alltel/index.jsp

There is a Alltel customers thread on Howard forums and their best phone was Desire, the replacements AT&T gave them were not bad. Note that any Android phones that AT&T hands out will have 3rd party apps disabled as well as crippled upload speed unless AT&T changes this which I doubt they will.
[HTC Sensation] Hog Milanese:
HTC is retarded to not support the 850 band on all phones going forward.

They're going to be left in the dust if they don't support AT&T.
[HTC Sensation] mark manning:
Actually they are smart. ATT already said they will replace T-mobile phones with new ones. If they support ATT bands then there is no need to replace them. If they don't ATT has to buy millions of phones from them. So sir good argument but you should understand business better

Sent from my Royal Glacier powered XDA app
[HTC Sensation] Chad_Petree:
i really want to get this phone and use it with the at &t bands, i know the sensation 4g is meant to be used with t mobile but what about the international version? will it work on at & t bands?
[HTC Sensation] vinnyjr:
Why would any company make a great phone to be just thrown away n a short time. I think it's just wasteful, great hardware with no use. That is truely sad this day in age we can make expensive hardware and just toss it aside. Don't like it at all, I love this phone but why even build it without AT&T radio bands? As I said poor planning and very wasteful. Pisses me off that such great hardware gets tossed aside.
[HTC Sensation] vinnyjr:
Why do you say that? They figure they will sell twice as many phones. Before and after the buy out. I think it is disgusting and wasteful to throw away such a great made piece of hardware. Very sad IMO that any company can just make a piece of hardware for basicly just a 6 month deal, maybe a little longer. This is the phone that the hard core T-Mobile customer has been waiting for. Now the damn thing is just about to launch and it is only good for a few lousy months. Freaken disgusting and pathetic. Why even bother, that is why anyone with any sense of responsibility would add AT&T bands to this hardware, doesn't even make sense to me. It is just so wasteful to me.
[HTC Sensation] kgbkny:
The buyout will take at least 12-18 months to complete. When it comes to large corporate mergers, there is a lot of regulatory red tape to be navigated. After the buyout is complete (if it's even approved to begin with), it will take at least a couple of more years for AT&T to repurpose T-Mobile's frequencies.

Relax, guys. We'll be able to use the Sensation for at least 2-3 years. Speaking of which, does anyone even keep phones for that long nowadays?
[HTC Sensation] wpf54173:
Agreed. IF the merger even goes through. Besides, correct me if I'm wrong, but even after atts acquisition of tmo's towers, the frequencies of the towers will remain the same. So the sensation should still work. But like you said, who keeps phones that long anyways?
[HTC Sensation] Raspster:
By the time the merger goes thru and they combine the towers, HTC will have another handset that blows this phone into another galaxy!
[HTC Sensation] kolyan:
I wonder if further development of 3G/4G AWS stopped.....
[HTC Sensation] robstunner:
Am i wrong on this?

2G network	Yes

GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 Dualband/Triband/Quadband

3G network	Yes

UMTS HSDPA 850/1900/2100

This copied from the Vodafone UK website for the HTC Sensation.

http://shop.vodafone.co.uk/shop/mobile-phone/htc-sensation
[HTC Sensation] ptscon:
Saw that couple of days ago, it might be mistake.

TMobile US will be getting 1700/2100 one, is HTC releasing two versions?

Vodafone AU does use 850Mhz band so there is a chance this is true. Crossing fingers :)
[HTC Sensation] robstunner:
I didnt see the phone on the AU website. Does the UK. Vodafone use 850mhz?
[HTC Sensation] ptscon:
Haven't checked, but perhaps Vodafone wants to use the same device across all their regions which including 850Mhz would allow. I think.
[HTC Sensation] BarryH_GEG:
Based on my experience with the G2X which was supposed to be quad-band and actually marketed that way, T-Mobile's not going to have a radio in the Sensation that supports AT&T's bands.

Also, T-Mobile's in trouble. Their post-paid (where the money is) attrition rate is worse than their lowest point in 2008.

http://www.gizmocrunch.com/mobile/6784-tmobile-usa-att-customers-loss

This just adds to the likelihood of the merger getting approved because the analysts are starting to question T-Mobile's viability.

I just move to AT&T figuring I'd end up their anyway and the euro-SGS2 is a true quad-band (except T-Mobile's one-off bands) phone.
[HTC Sensation] robstunner:
I shot vodafone uk an email.
[HTC Sensation] omar302:
HTC's website clearly mentions:

Network5

HSPA/WCDMA:

Europe/Asia/T-Mobile US: 900/AWS/2100 MHz

Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE:

850/900/1800/1900 MHz

So its a tri-Band HSPA. The same unit for Europe, Asia & T-Mobile(US).

AWS usualy refers to 1700, the bans used in US for T-Mobile on 3G.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
So no 850 3G. Understand ATT in the US may be left out, but there are some carriers in other countries that use 850, are they just SOL, or will HTC produce a different model?
