not rooted ( although i'm not the first owner so how do i see if it is rooted or not ? ).

it has the latest OTA.

software version: 3.36.405.1

I tried running antivirus and it didnt detect anything while the browser was opening itself.

If i force close the Browser in Manage aplications and use some other browser ( dolphin ) the problem doesnt happen.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SERGI.3210:
there are various things that you can do for know if your device is rooted:

fist method: -download TERMINAL EMULATOR from market

-write in the shell of TM: su

-if the the phone says to you "terminal emulator has granted superuser permissions" and the blue screen returns you "#" your device is rooted.

second method: -look at for the "superuser.apk" between your aplications list. if you has it in theory your phone is rooted(entering in the apk and not displaying any error)

there are more methods..

another question: have you some task killer?works well for eclair 2.1 and it can break the process that is producing this problem..

for example: ADVANCED TASK KILLER FREE (download it from market and put the widget in your desktop for force closes)

i adition say that that task killers are not recommened for froyo and upper...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug01:
tried the terminal - not rooted

i know about task killers, but i am using dolphin browser now and the problem doesn't occur with him.

so i guess it's the stock browsers problem.

one thing that is buggin me is when i was reseting the device it did that green progress line in the bottom all the way, then asked for my sim pin ,i entered it and then it said

do you want to continue update ( not sure if it said update or something else ) with (and then it offered two choices)

setup.upgrade

setup.upgrade1

something like that, and i had to choose one of them.

so why are those 2 there ? i tried searching through the phone to find those files ( upgrade and upgrade1 ) but didn't.

maybe it's something in them that is messing with the browser.

supose a visit to the service so they flash original softwer could maybe solve it

Hi,

On my BMW 530D ('04 E60) having issues with the built in bluetooth handsfree.. It find the car, pairs, but after few seconds it drops the connection and after another few seconds it connects again.. Doesn't matter if I'm in middle of a call or not. There was a topic that suggested to deselect the option to disable bluetooth when not in call in the power saver menu, but this doesn't work for me..

Have HTC Desire HD, CoreDroid V5.4, radio 26.06.03.24_M2 (tryed few other and same result)

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humbi83:
Hi all,

First post. yes...

Now, I've flashed 12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M radio + ril.

Before that I had 12.41.60.19_26.06.04.14_M.

Problems:

1. I get something like -35/-70mA in the battery monitor. (Dialer 35% + WLAN 24%+ Cell 18%) 100%-> 65% in less that 8 hours

2. Once, the phone blocked/black screen after i have finished one phone call.

My Actions:

So i tried to revert the the previous radio(s) but the writing process blocks at about >95% and even after 5 min nothing happens. I get no error, the bootloader simply gets stuck. I have to remove the battery for a restart.:mad:

Conclusion:

As a result the version is still 12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M (in bootloader & sw info)

Any ideas?

Thank you.

Some numbers about my config from sw info:

scid,Eng,S-Off, hBoot 0.85.2007

RCMixHD_5.3

Android 2.3.3

HTC 2.1

Baseband&RIL 12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1sanju:
Not an expert, but here is my 2 cents...:)

Do you have the radio S-off, If you are not sure you can use gfree -verify to check that. XDA wiki has the process.

If you do have radio S-off, try downloading the file from some other place..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humbi83:
Hi,

I should have everything off/hacked/super/eng (radio/hboot/cid/etc..).

I'll check again just to be sure once I get home from work.

I tried to switch to other radios after this and the same thing happens. ;(. Until this one I've flashed 3 more radios without any problems.

1. downloads to the phone .. ok

2. writing to the phone .. once the red bar (upper right screen on the target/phone) is almost complete it gets stuck(need to remove battery) and i receive no error in the cmd wnd ( blocked, need to press ctrl+c).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajikuldoc:
Hi which method do u use to flash radio ?do tried using radio flash tool?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SERGI.3210:
obvious.. he is using radio flash tool because they are talking about... red bar.... fastboot...

via adb there are not this things;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humbi83:
Hi,

Solved it when I tried with the latest radio (last week's). Best one yet btw. I'm not sure what happened.

Oh.. fastboot for flashing.

There are 2 steps when I flash with it.

1. Pc/cmd I get something about downloading radio.img. at the same time on the phone screen I get a green vertical progress bar.

2. Step 2 Radio gets written/actually flashed and the a red progress bar appears in place of the green one. After red progress bar reaches around 90% the phone just blocks with no confirmation of an error in fastboot/cmd window on pc.

On a succesfull radio flashing the red bar doesn't reach more than half and I get the ok from fastboot/cmd utility and the actual writing (red bar part) takes less than 15s.

It seems that even after a couple of failed radio flashes nothing totally bad happened.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sick S:
Maybe you can try flash radio via file PD98IMG.ZIP
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humbi83:
Hi,

Thank you for all the help.

The problem IS SOLVED by simply trying another radio 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2.

For everyone reading this, if something happens and the writing of the image blocks (in bootloader) for some reason, if it boots after you remove the battery everything is OK (at least for me).

Hey guys i tried rooting my desire hd today following these steps

Summary:

1) Download Paul's Visionary+ tool (I have used version r12) (google removed this app from market) so You will have to download it from Paul's website.

This tools enables root and removes new HTC protection.

2) Install engineering version of HBOOT to get S-Off (HTC bootloader, something like BIOS for Your PC)

This step is optional and it's not required in order to flash custom ROM's on Your DHD but gives You more freedom with Your device.

3) Install custom recovery image (recovery is special program which is invoked from HBOOT

in order to flash ROM onto Your device.

Detailed description:

1) Download Paul's Visionary+ tool

1.1) Click here to download http://android.modaco.com/content/ht...ne-click-root/ or download it from here http://xdaforums.com/atta...3&d=1290501865

1.2) Install Visionary+ on Your DHD

1.3) Run it, enable "Set system r/w after root

1.4) Click "Temproot Now!" - Wait until it's finished

1.5) Click Attempt Permroot Now!

1.6) DHD automatically reboot's

To test that everything went fine download from market application "terminal emulator"

run it, type su

If You get after that sign # it mean's that everything went fine.

Time for next step!

2) Install engineering version of HBOOT to get S-Off

2.1) Download sfjuocekr DHD script for flashing HBOOT from here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=835746

2.2) Unzip it and copy it to Your SDCard (It's important that You have on Your SDCard root directory with name DHD and all files inside this directory. Rename DHD-smart folder on Your SDCARD to DHD.

2.3) Run Terminal Emulator

2.4) Type su

2.5) Type "sh /sdcard/DHD/check

(Please be aware that You have to type "sh" in front of command)

2.6) If everything went OK type

sh /sdcard/DHD/backup <-------------

i typed in the step above but the md5's dosent match. Instead of getting 954ee123699488613c5e0afd2d703c43, i get bf096b228125d8b8960cb294b102ef16

and being a careless person i am i went onto typing sh /sdcard/DHD/hboot

and quickly closed the app. Now i am too scared to turn my phone off because i heard it could be bricked.

please help thanks guys
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxslt1:
I have a samsung fascinate that I've had for a week. I rooted a few days ago then installed the orange clockwork. Since doing alot of reading I then installed the red "all" clockwork and then installed the stock leaked froyo rom. Everything worked fine. I have 2 backups of the eclair and just made one of froyo. I decided I wanted to go back to eclair and it will not restore. It just gets stuck at the samsung logo for over 30 minutes. None of my backups will restore, eclair or froyo. I've tried several times. I have the red clockwork recovery which is suppose to be the "all" one that I flashed with Odin. It says CwM Voodoo Lagfix recovery v2.5.1.x. Is this the wrong clockwork? I have not installed any voodoo or lagfix of any kind. When I try to restore my nandroid backup this is what I do, wipe data/factory reset, then wipe cache partition, then wipe dalvik cache, then restore my backup. I'm coming from a droid incredible which was a piece of cake to back up and restore and those are the steps needed to do a restore on it. Do I need to do something different with the samsung? It won't even get past the samsung logo when I do a factory reset in clockwork. I don't know how to get to the stock recovery to do a factor reset from there. The only way I can get the phone back working is to install froyo thru clockwork using install from sd card.

I have noticed that everytime I try to restore a backup it never restores boot. i know it always restored boot on the incredible and i would assume it needs to with this phone too. Any suggestions as to why I can't restore a backup or even do a factory reset??

"Q: After I enter CWM, it says I am at version 2.5.1.x. Does that mean I'm on the correct version?

Unfortunately, the last several updates have been minor bugfixes, and the version number has stayed at 2.5.1.x. Hopefully this will be remedied soon. An easy way to check is to go to "Advanced" menu. If you don't see "Enable Puzzle LockScreen", then you are on the newest version (this menu option was removed because it has not been functional for a long time)."

first of all, go to www.samfirmware.com to get the firmware you need.

put the downloaded files in the correct boxes using Odin.

If the firmware comes in 3 files, Use 512 PIT and check re-partition

hit start, wait for the pass sign and your done !!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mossy1963:
You need the jm1 firmware from samfirmware.com, use the flashing instructions on their site using odin.its very simple, just take your time. Jm1 is a low level firmware for 2.1 which will enable you to upgrade to the latest offering via kies making your phone completely stock and "legit".

It will remove the 3 button recovery and download mode which you can restore using instructions elsewhere but I guess that is the least of your worries for now and is the price for going back to eclair.

Hi guys,

I have a problem, hoping for some advice ^^

I sent my Desire for warranty repair, as the screen has been flickering. I know about the problem with SLCD filckering and it wasn't like that. It's like the whole screen gets bright and dark in high frequency (it's AMOLED). It first appeared like 2 months ago, for half an hour, and then it was back to normal. Then it appeared again 2 days before I sent it in. I've been emailed now, 24 day later, that they could not find the problem and that it's all working fine. I've even sent them a video of the problem. but it doesn't help them, and they'll send it back.

What am I to do? Send it in again as soon as i get it back, or wait another month for the problem to appear again, just to send it back again and to receive the same answer, when there is clearly something wrong? :S

Thanks for your help.

oh, and it looked like that nook color screen flickering.

EDIT: since the device was sent to repair before, to replace the non working camera, is it possible that there could have been some problem with connectors or is this strictly hardware (display) problem?
[Desire General] Meaple:
Could be a problem with anything. Could be the screen, could be the connectors, could be the cables, could be anything.

If the problem is a quick fix problem like a reboot then I don't see the point in asking HTC to do anything. If its a problem that is common, maybe every day then there is a point. If they can't find a problem, they can't fix it. They wont take your word for it unless they can confirm it. Parts cost money and they're not going to throw money away at the expense of customers words, otherwise everyone would be doing it.

Sent from CM7
[Desire General] alen1989:
The thing is that I even recorded while it was happening. And I did it because I knew there was a possibility they would not find nothing wrong with the phone. And it's not a quick fix problem, don't even know what caused it and made it stop (stock rom, factory reset, it was still happening).

Oh well, I guess I'll make another video as a proof and send it in again when the problem returns.

[Desire General] alen1989:
Here, I've sent it in for repair again. By law, they have 45 day to repair it - if they don't, i get a new phone. The thing is, that if they don't find anything wrong with the phone (and they didn't find anything, as the problem appears once in a while), they have another 45 days if I send it in again.

Luckily, my mobile operator acknowledged my videos (can be seen: alenandrasic.com/desire.html) and gave them only 20 days to repair it, since it took them 25 days last time to find nothing.

So basically, I have to wait 15 more days. I guess i'm really unlucky, since i've been withouth my desire for 2.5 months in the 10 that i own it. Ah well, will post how it gets resolved ^^

Back at the time when I was running CM 6.1 on the pattern unlock screen it had the option of hiding the dots that make up the pattern. (so all there was was the time and the message saying draw pattern to unlock). The text could be changed too, it looked nice and added a bit of security as it would be obvious to most people that you had to draw the pattern.

In fact, sometimes, the screen seems to be "fool", it is shacking left to right, randomly even I don't touch the cell phone :confused:

I hardly suspect the accelerometer... I have deactivated the auto screen rotation and the haptic feedback but I have the same problem.

This is very strange. Never have this problem on windows mobile before. I remember that I have tested another CyanogenMod but on sdcard this time and I was having the same issues with the screen who is doing stuff "alone" !
