[T-Mobile LG G2x] JasjarMan:
Didn't like the brownish color to much so I painted it somewhat flat black.

Looks better in real life.

My 2nd mod will be to add a second battery on top of the original one.

Will have to do some electric soldering and cut the back of the battery cover.

Won't do this till they start to sell the OEM battery cover.

I also painted it in white and looked really nice. But I'm liking the black a bit better.

If anyone would like to have his/hers cover done let me know.

Btw, sorry if this is in the wrong section.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rich2thad:
nice. I want to do mine white amd red sonehow

nice work tho

I hate how thw top speaker is black I was thinkin about painting it chrome

sent from my G2X with no regrets
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andonnguyen:
Looks nice. What kind of paint did you use? Also, did you sand the battery cover and primer before painting it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] djmcnz:
That looks really good, what paint did you use?

Although I admit adding a second battery wouldn't be to my aesthetic tastes.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JasjarMan:
"I hate how thw top speaker is black"

I don't understand? You mean the top where the hdmi is?

White did look really nice, its has to be the right kind of red for it to look good.

And thanks for the compliment.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JasjarMan:
I'm thinking after I make a perfect cut, I will fiberglass a cover for it (round it out around the battery). Than sand it SMOOTH and paint it any color I want. It will look OEM for sure. And will be NICE to hold in the hand too! Will NOT be that thick at all. Will have DOUBLE the battery life.

If they come out with a 2800MaH(or higher) it will save me time in the soldering 2 batteries. All I will need to do is the fiberglass battery cover.

"Looks nice. What kind of paint did you use? Also, did you sand the battery cover and primer before painting it?"

It's a paint that sticks to just about anything, I only sanded the edges to help stick.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JasjarMan:
Btw, I had to remove the lens cover and the brushed aluminum google "plack" or whatever it's called. Otherwise it would not look oem because of the edges would have paint on them. Taped it up the first time when i painted it white and the edges looked terrible. Removing it looks like factory.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] djmcnz:
What paint did you use specifically?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rich2thad:
the ear speaker directly above the tmobile logo and roght below hdmi yess. its just flat plastiv black and I like the chrome speaker accents most HTC devices have

[T-Mobile LG G2x] lychris85:
I know its been a while, but OP are you still around? I am wondering how you got the "plaque" off
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Memnoch30:
I'd also be interested in what paint you used. I'd love to try out white on my wife's phone and black on mine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spyvie:
Interesting that the type of paint is apparently a minor trade secret.

I would think that the type of paint made to stick to plastic models might work well. Testors brand, IIRC, is available in hobby shops. (Do not deliberately concentrate and inhale, you might end up like me!)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
How easy was it to get the plaque off. Was it glued or some sort of sticky tape???

Looks like it came that way!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
That's sexy! I might look into that after I buy a 2nd OEM cover! Maybe even pain the brown accents on the phone black too?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cuda340:
Looks good!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] freakboy13:
Yeah... fresh paint looks great. Lets see what it looks like in 6 no. Maybe you can post pics then to see how durable it is. Agree the brown back color sucks.

meh...

[Desire HD General] harro3:
Hi guys

I have a problem.When I charge my DHD battery, upon removing it from charge, the phone always freezes and the only way to unfreeze it is to remove the battery.

It's leedroid v2.2.2 and radio 26.06.03.24_M2

Help? Thanks :)
[Desire HD General] Bomster:
Freezing 1 or 2 times a day here on CM7. Happens sometimes as soon as I pull out the charger.
[Desire HD General] LeatherFace:
i have used every single rom available for Htc desire hd.. be that with or without sense.. never encountered such a prob... maybe the flashing of the rom wasnt done properly? i think it might solve it... also reboot to recovery then go to advanced and clear battery stats see if that helps
[Desire HD General] Milini:
Don't be afraid it's not related to the flashing process. I am running an out-of-the box dhd with original HTC Rom 1.3x and experiencing from time to time the same error. 3-4 times in the last 4 months.
[Desire HD General] harro3:
Okay, cheers guys :)

[HD7 General] tai4de2:
Just reset my HD7 and now can't find the T-Mo MyAccount app in marketplace.

Can anyone else see it and send me a link? Does a XAP exist for side-loading -- that would also be an option if for some reason T-Mo yanked the app from the marketplace?

I wonder if my phone got de-branded somehow. After reset, I had FamilyRoom and all that other stuff so I thought not, but why I can't see MyAccount is a mystery.
[HD7 General] devGOD:
you can download it from the HTC Hub app
[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
^^^ plus one.
[HD7 General] tai4de2:
Thanks for the tip. I can see it from there but when I tap on it I am not given the option to install it.

For some reason it seems that marketplace doesn't think this app is applicable for my phone. Maybe it got de-branded somehow or something got hosed during the NoDo update.

Any suggestions?
[HD7 General] tai4de2:
I had been running my HD7 without a SIM. After I put in a SIM and let Connection Settings configure the phone, MyAccount became available in the Marketplace.

Thanks to all for the tips.

I downgreade PRI & Radio because I was expecting beter battery life, now is even worse.

Current Radio: 2.15.00.09.01 (it was 11.19)

Current Pri: 1_77.003 (old was 1_90.003)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
What ROM/kernel are you using? If you're on a stock htc 15 kernel, you're going to experience bad battery life and possibly lag issues, due to incompatibility. The htc 15 kernel requires the most updated pri and radio for some reason. So if you're on stock htc 15 kernel, I'd suggest trying a netarchy kernel. Actually, if you like stock kernels, the htc 17 kernel always performed exceptionally well for me, and it runs great on the radio/pri combo that you're using.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erik077:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
The above combination of radio & PRI should yield you excellent battery life. What kernel are you using? What are the sync times with your news & social networking stuff, if any? Are you in an area of bad network coverage?

Recently i unlocked HD2, and since then, gps does not detecting any satellites.

I use 2 navigation programs, Igo8 and Destinator 8 and 9, and all of them displays connection with gps, but i waited more than 2 hours to find satellites...both of them found nothing.

O.K. This should solve your problem. Upgrade your radio back to 2.15.50.14. After that, download and install the attached file on your phone. Make sure you install it TO YOUR PHONE and NOT SD CARD. Then run the app, download data, then run your gps app. You should be good to go. Hope this helps.:)

Hello, had the same problem with my HD2. My phone was having an Eastern Europe type of ROM (Poland 1.48.479.1). After I've put the HSPL, I updated the phone to the latest Radio (2.15.50.14) and a custom ROM, i did see that GPS didn't work. In trying to resolve the problem, I installed a lot radios and OS's (custom Windows, SD Androids, NAND Androids, etc), but GPS didn't seem to work in the right parameters (there were sometimes when it worked for few seconds after waiting about 5 minutes). Then i decided to turn back cu SPL, and install the original stock Windows from the HTC site. Now the GPS seem to work fine. The Radio version is 2.05.51.05_2. Hope it works for your phone too.

[HTC Aria General] brivette007:
Is there any way to modify the delay between rings on incoming calls?

On FR008 (or any Sense ROM), the ringtone plays without any pause (ring-ring-ring). Now on CM7, using the same ringtone, there is a few-second pause (ring......ring......).

I've missed some calls already because I didn't notice my phone ringing in time.

I'd like to change the delay to 1 second (Sense was a little too fast and spazzy, but CM is spread way to much)

Would this be something that can be changed in build.prop? Or is it deeper than that?

I've asked elsewhere, but I got the typical stupid "use Audacity to edit the ringtone" answer. I don't want to do that, I want to change the setting in CM7.

Any ideas?
[HTC Aria General] brivette007:
Any ideas?
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
There is definitely no setting for this in cm7. And as far as I can tell there is nothing in the build.prop to modify for this either. Not saying its impossible, just not by those two methods.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] NeutronBomb:
So I currently own a Thunderbolt on Verizon as well as a wifi only galaxy tab and a wifi only xoom.

I also have a G2X on a 2 week trial. I was going to transfer me and my gf's phones over from Verizon.

I have my G2X rooted already and I have wireless tether installed. It works but my Xoom and my Galaxy tab won't recognize it. I'm assuming this is because it's running in ad-hoc mode and not infrastructure.

If this something that can be changed with kernal upgrade or custom roms or will this phone forever broadcast ad-hoc? This is pretty important to me as it's one of my primary purposes for switching to tmobile. (4g in my area vs none for verizon as well as battery life.)

I feel like a tard now actually. I'm so used to having verizon I didn't realize that T-Mobile didn't take out the stock android mobile hotspot app.

Does anyone know if t-mobile makes you sign up for a tethering plan to use it? I was able to fire it up and connect both my Xoom and my galaxy tab just fine.. just don't want a suprise in my bill.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mingkee:
Just use it.

If you got error page, you simply add tethering option or just change browser agent (but I don't think you'll get in trouble if you tether with Android tablets).

As long as you have an unlimited data package youll be fine...they have a 2gig & 5gig. Once you go over those limits it will still work, just not as fast as before you went over the data cap. No issues with mine tho, my hotspot works fine with various devices
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JeffR714:
access control

I keep getting access control disabled when I use either Android Wifi tethering apps I don't have a hotspot app in my G2X I went and downloaded via android any solutions to making this work??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] NeutronBomb:
It's not an app, it's in the wireless network settings. Same place as wifi-bluetooth and all that. Just a check box to turn it on.

Funny story about the wireless tether for root users app.

So when I posted this that it will only work in ad-hoc mode, I found a workaround for my xoom to connect before I realized there was built in hotspot. The built in hotspot works great and it's infrastructure mode, but like my thunderbolt and droid x before it, won't stay connected in my office for some reason.

I tried the wireless tether program and low and behold it stays connected firmly in my office. Must be something about it being ad-hoc because all the infrastructure mode tethering methods I've tried will not stay connected in my office.. must be some intereference or something.
[General Questions and Answers] Xuazvius:
Hi guys and girls.

All I want to know is:

Installation & Updating Proceedure is the same!:

Download the build to your pc.

1. americanandroid.7z -> unzip!

2. copy folder unzipped\AmeriCanAndroid\Android -> to -> \sdcard\Android

(COPY THE WHOLE FOLDER.. NOT JUST INDIVIDUAL FILES!!!!!!)

3. in winmo, run clrcad.exe and haret.exe in the \storage card\Android\ folder. OR (alternatively install exceller bootloader for winmo for one click or AUTO launch of Android OS)

first boot always takes a long time be patient, it will work, and future boots do not take as long.

^^^^^^^^^^

That part, right there. How long is "a long time" just so I know if everything is going smooth or if something is wrong. Currently been 25-35 minutes now and still on the black screen with tiny white writing.

9 lines, last line reads "jumping to kernel (custom)..."
