I did some XDA searching and some Google searching and no firm answer was located...

I know that the Sense ROMS on Froyo and GB with their applicable Sense apps are wholely dependent on the Sense framework.apk. I was wondering if this also applies to the Sense Messaging app mms.apk?

I am currently running a MIUI 1.4.22 ROM and I really like the Sense messaging app over the MIUI stock, GB stock, CM7 stock, Handscent, Chomp, etc messaging apks.

Before I try to install a GB Sense mms.apk on my HTC DZ to replace the stock MIUI mms.apk which will likely result into boot loop after boot loop, and invariably screw up, was wondering is anyone has tried to do the same WITH SUCCESS?

Thanks in advance.

[Android Apps and Games] civicvx94:
As far as I know, any HTC app will require HTC's framework..this applies to the phone app, contacts, calender, friend stream, the Sense widgets, etc. I haven't tried to do this myself, but I could only guess it applies to the mms.apk also. Although, I don't think it will put you in bootloop if you tried and it failed, probably would just FC. For it to work with CM7 or MIUI framework I think it would need to be ported.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davidsr1127:
So I had rooted my Htc Evo 4g and I would try new ROM's maybe once a week or so... And than I flash a ROM and go to install some apps and I get a low memory warning. I used to have that problem with my Hero. I did the full wipe (everything 3x) and I was wondering why I would be low on memory after clearing everything? Is there something I'm missing, lol?!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
Are you using A2SD with an ext partition? And if so, are you wiping EXT as well? I know you said everything, just checking. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
I have never had that problem, and I regularly have around 100 or so apps on my phone.

What roms are you trying? I have tried most roms on here, and almost all of them actually use LESS space then the stock rom, as they get rid of things you dont need.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpz1100:
Bad clusters?? Look at the recovery.log after a wipe
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davidsr1127:
Lol... Actually I've never wiped that but I don't use the A2SD or anything so it never crossed my mind...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davidsr1127:
What is and how do I check the recovery log? Sorry for the newb question, you'd think I'd know by now, lol!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cobirch2:
By bad clusters I assume he means bad blocks. It sounds like parts of your memory have become damaged simply through normal use, its inevitable in all solid state memories. Supposedly some evos have been shipped with defects that cause lots of bad blocks. If your hardware version is 0003 or lower there's a chance yours was one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cobirch2:
Recovery.log is generated at /tmp/recovery.log whenever you do something in recovery. In recovery, if you go to advanced and then select report error it will copy that file to /sdcard/clockworkmod/recovery.log.

I doubt you'll find anything about bad blocks in that file. I just generated one and looked through it and the only thing about blocks that it says is "successfully wrote to block 0", which is just one block out of thousands. Its mostly technical things like what version of recovery you have, what radio your using things like that. It wouldn't hurt to look through it though. Some of it wont make sense, some will. Just look through line by line, it'll take like 5 minutes.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpz1100:
Yes, I did mean bad blocks, but had sectors and clusters on the mind :D

Anyone have solutions to this problems? Do not really know what to do here
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Foladko:
Try to factory reset your phone: settings>SD & Phone storage>Reset

If that doesn't solve it, download the ROM again and reflash it. And make sure you flash FULL-WIPE-1.3.zip first!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_JMM:
If you don't want to have to flash another app (for wiping data etc.) you can just do this from recovery where you can decide what needs wiping (between ROM's and re-installs though wipe everything).

Just my personal preference.

[General Questions and Answers] brian10161:
Hey guys, first post here ;)

I bought an hx2490C from a seller and it had a chinese OS on it.

I did a ROM update on it and it was apparently an English version and it went, but now I can't get the pocket PC to boot up. It just sits at a white screen.

When I do the hard reset mentioned in the instructions, "Hold itask + calender and hold reset until it chirps" it does the chirp sound but I can't get it to display the "formatting PS" message on the display.

I can put it into preBL mode and re-flash it, but it still doesn't do anything afterward.

Was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and managed to fix theirs.

Really would appreciate some help! Thanks!

Battery drainage issue on the coredroid 5.4.

Before my coredroid didn't drain battery like a stock inspire rom. When my phone is on stand by mode, it would drain like normal inspire. When its being used, it drains even quicker.

I did a full wipe then flashes the full rom 5.4.. didn't change radio or anything else.

Anyone having this issue?
[HTC Inspire 4G] doktor buknasty:
What you can do is charge the battery to 100%, then wipe battery stats in recovery. Also try juice defender, ultimate juice is worth the money. Post your results later
[HTC Inspire 4G] chongwj:
I too realize not much different from stock rom when using Coredroid 5.4. First was using GB version thought that's the reason, flashed with Froyo still notice the same. Probably gonna try different roms tonight. Besides, my notification light not flashing anymore during stand by mode, make my phone looks like turned off when screen is off.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
Keep in mind that you might not have the best battery life with coredroid gingerbread, while therw have been some major tweaks, most of the extra battery life comes from roms with custom kernels. Kernels is where most of the battery tweaking happens. If you want good battery life your going to,have to stick with roms that have custom kernels ie. Cm7 builds, froyo builds, and miui builds.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rotchcrocket04:
While I can't comment on CoreDroid's battery useage - I can say that I noticed a significant difference between the stock Sense ROM and CM7. Take it for what it's worth but I was pleased.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rotchcrocket04:
I've been wondering what this does exactly - when wiping battery stats through Recovery? Is this necessary to do often (between flashes of different CM7 versions)? I've flashed twice since rooting - almost a month now. Should I do this next time I charge? Just curious...
[HTC Inspire 4G] P00t:

Maybe it's just because of my Desire HD, or my broken graphics card :p

Getting really bad quality on apple movie trailers and so so on local stuff. Definitely not HD. What settings do you use? Think I will ask for refund.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] TheHybridFrog:
AFAIK Plex uses Direct-stream which downgrades quality based on its detection methods for the device. I've noticed definite quality downgrades on some of my stuff, but at least they play. Plex has been the only streamer that I have gotten to play hi-profile files, but it does downgrade them. Some people think it's a hardware problem with Tegra2, but I have not gotten any player (moboplayer, vplayer etc...) to play hi-profile mkv's without immense lag.

Now all Plex needs to do is get working on doing mkv container subtitles over streaming and it would be perfect!
