Guys I Have an ALLTEL Merge.

And the GPS is not working whatsoever.

Please see my post and someone independent confirming my experience....

http://community.htc.com/na/htc-forums/android/f/126/p/11563/49119.aspx#49119

Anyone else with ALLTEL experiencing this flaw?

What a load of crap!

From what I can see, this ALLTEL rom is only bespoke in the form that it has a few ALLTEL wallpapers and a bootscreen animation - other then that its all HTC Sence STOCK - so how the fuNk did they mash the GPS.

Very annoyed

GPS works on my Alltel Merge

GPS works on my Alltel Merge with only the GPS on and the wireless location service turned off.

It does, however, take quite a while to get a lock, especially with a cloudy sky.
[About XDA developers] stoney_38668:
GPS has never worked on my Alltel Merge. I love the phone but wish GPS worked and wish I could install custom roms.
[About XDA developers] escentz:
I have been looking EVERYWHERE for HTC Merge rooting and themes and haven't found a thing. There definitely needs to be a dedicated forum on here.
[About XDA developers] xPreSiDenT:
We definitely do need a forum, and we also need to get these phones onto custom recovery so we can start making and flashing roms. We need these guys. Ive been trying to contact them, but cant find a contact vector, and dont have the time to dig in these days. Anyone else want to try? The more noise we make, the more chances we may have to get this done.
[About XDA developers] kylatay:
Looking forward to a Merge Thread too.

+1 more for a Merge forum. I just got the US Cellular version yesterday. Switched from WinMo TP2. Haven't found a decent forum yet. Got my fingers crossed.
[About XDA developers] cdodge04:
I also have the USCC Merge...love the phone so far. Would love to see some custom roms and stuff for it!
[About XDA developers] CorleonesMob:
I, too, am excited to see the HTC Merge rooted!! I have the USCC Merge and really really want to get it rooted so I can run a few specific ROMS. Great phone so far after about a week of having it (upgrade from a Blackberry Curve :0 ). Thanks XDA!
[About XDA developers] jsox79:
+1 more for merge development, great phone!

got my uscc merge few days ago and i love it! could be alot of potential if someone would just look into it. please please, and thanks!

It's already a great device, but it would be even better rooted. Thanks for your time.

I did a search for wiki htc merge.....

Only listing is under android comparison chart...

But it stated there that the phone had LTE/700

Was the original merge supposed to be 4g?

Or was this an internet muff up?

Just thought it was kinda funny... its right under the T-bolt ....should change this if its wrong I guess?

I have a friend who has a Merge and I have to root it for him. I can't find anything though?

+1 for HTC Merge subforum :)
[About XDA developers] astriaos:
I too, wish to see a dev section made. I have several acquaintances on USCellular who have asked me about the viability of this phone. i would like to be able to recommend it to them as I own a g2 which the Merge's hardware seems to be loosely based on. However in good conscience I cannot suggest that they purchase this phone without at least some headway made towards rooting and custom recovery development.

Please make this happen.
[About XDA developers] zarakand:
I have the HTC Merge on U.S. Cellular as well, and would love to see some kind of forum/development for the phone.
[About XDA developers] wallify:
+1 for that. I might trade in my merge fore a mesmerize if nothing looks promising. The merges quadrant scores are WAY better than the mes, but not being able to root it, run ROMs or overclock is killing me
[About XDA developers] jonnyphenomenon:
picedp a merge or myself last week afer my wife got one and I saw the awesomeness of this phone. it has an 800mhz arm 7 processor, and plenty of ram. it spins circles around my old samsung acclaim which had an 800mhz arm 6 cpu.

Since I couldnt find any information about the phone on the XDA forums, i went loking elsewhere, thanks to the folks over at 2fastroms.com I now have my phone rooted (using the goldcard superoneclick method) and you wont believe it, but I have installed the leaked USCellular Gingerbread 2.3.4 rom with HTC Sense 2.1, and it is awesome! sense 2.1 has come a long way!. with the stock sense ui, I was going to try to replace it with the stock android launcher, but sense 2.1 is so much better I will continue using it.

some thoughts about the phone: it is very fast cmopared to my last 800mhz phone. I was really reluctant to spend the money on another 800mhz phone after the trouble I had with my acclaim. after my wife upgraded from an LG to this, I had the opportunity to play around with it and was very impressed. The addition of flash was a very nice treat as well.

the user interface took a little getting used to, HTC changed some things around that didnt need changing. For examople: "Contacts" is now "People", etc.

all in all, it seems to be working very well. I am surprized that USCellular has not yet released this upgrade to 2.3.4 officially yet, but I expect it very soon.

While the XDA forums doesnt seem to often cater to the US Cellular phones, I really think that the HTC Merge is a damned quality piece of equipment, and deserves some proper attention...
[About XDA developers] jonnyphenomenon:
here it is, just released at US Cellular. the OFFICIAL 2.3.4 update right from the horses mouth!

Dont need to ROOT to install this!

looks nice, I will try it.

Thank you !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GeitjeG:
Thanks,

If you manage to add the function to add new pages, I will certainly use it, and donate (remember me if I forget...).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s_green_22:
If you need it more than saving pages, I will be pleased to implement it before page saving.

My concept is that it could happen via clipboard. URL you want to add is copied into clipboard (Opera Mobile provides copy option for links), then within LolaLaterList option 'Add page' shows form, where URL field is prefilled with the URL from clipboard. Would it be fine for you, or is there other (simpler?) way you would like to do it?

Regards,

Ł.O.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GeitjeG:
Well, to clear things up: I mean adding an URL to read-it-later list. The easiest way would be to be able to shake-and-add in Opera. But I guess this is quite complicated? Copy and pasting via clipboard is acceptable as well.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s_green_22:
Yes, adding an URL to read-it-later list is a feature I am thinking about :).

As I can imagine when it comes to shake-and-add in Opera, the hardest thing will be to obtain URL of displayed page. Lets stay with clipboard for now :).

Since one of concepts behind my app is that it does not connect to RIL without direct action from user (sync), page added to list will be sent to RIL server during synchronisation.

Regards,

Ł.O.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GeitjeG:
That's alright, maybe you can add auto sync after adding an URL (this saves one extra action to do :-)).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s_green_22:
Please take a look at LolaLaterList-0.2.0-beta1 :).

Small hint - after LolaLaterList-0.2.0-beta1 is run and closed, you can change default setting for autosync with editing LolaLaterList.config and changing addition_autosync setting to 'True'. In final 0.2.0 version it will be available within Settings screen.

Regards,

Ł.O.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GeitjeG:
Beta version works alright. I'm using it for some hours now. Will get back with more feedback for sure.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GeitjeG:
It is working great, no bugs so far.

Two things I would like to see still:

- Auto-sync settings in options

- Auto-add http:// if forgotten, I get an error everytime I forget, and have to add manually.

Could you manage those things still?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s_green_22:
Please take a look at final 0.2.0 version. It should contain these two features.

Regards,

Ł.O.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s_green_22:
Up thread - s it allowed

I have not found such information - is it allowed to "up" threads when new version arrives?

Regards,

Ł.O.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s_green_22:
And again "thread up" with new version. I believe that with 60 downloads of previous version there might be several people interested with it :).

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zecetw:
yesterday i have installed gingerbread 2.3.3 with root, and now i want to install lagfix, but if my phone will be broken, how can i use the warranty, does exists unlagfix/unroot for gingerbread 2.3.3 ? i am new in these things.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PAGOT:
Exactly what you want to lagfix, if there is no lag?

And to unroot, flashing a stock rom should do the trick.

You have one day the gingerbread and you experiencing some sort of lag? If thats so where?

Anyway if you wanna change the filesystem from rfs to something else. You would need another kernel. As you didnt write what you have now (even though root) Cant help you what and how.

To the warranty its difficult to say :) depends what happens when you need to claim it. If you can reflash to the stock before a repair or if your device is unrecoverable damaged
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Warranty flash back your original saved rom as instructed .

Or flash stock 2.2.1 and hope for the best .Or also tries the Kies spoof method .

2.3.3 is not released so that will probably fail warranty .

As soon as you messed with non standard rom/firmware you break your warranty .

Hi!

I upgraded from Cyanogenmod7 to CM 7.01 using ROM Manager premium on my HTC Desire (GSM).

It asked me which cache's to clear, and I let it go with the default it suggested. The Dalvik cache

After the upgrade the phone booted fine, but where I usually have around 20Mb free on the phone, it was running very low at only 1.34Mb free on the phone.

I tried to clear the app cache, but that didn't help as there was no cache used.

So I tried to reboot the phone, and now it just hangs at the animation with the blue cyanogen android and won't start :eek:. I tried removing the SD card, but it still hangs.

Where do I go from here?
[General Topics] acebone:
It's all sorted now.

I held down the volumekey while turning it on, and in the boot menu I found an option to do a 'factory reset'.

Thanks to Titanium Back it was all a question of restoring my apps, and I know have my phone looking and working exactly as it did before!

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Girgizzlemuf:
Hello!

I decided to make a boot animation that was a bit flashy. Inspiration came from a buddy at work, so some credit goes to him.

[YOUTUBE]qGcD69g3cVk[/YOUTUBE]
​

Made in 3dsMax, CWM idea borrowed from the multitude of other bootanimations in this sub-forum. The actual boot animation does take part of the stock animation that fades from the "dual core" logo. Time on the wait for it to fade has been reduced however.

INSTRUCTIONS:

*Download to the SD Card.

*Boot to CWM (LOCKED BL VERSION)(More information Here)

*Choose 'Moto_Club_[_G_].zip' from wherever you downloaded it to.

*???

*Enjoy!
​

DISCLAIMER:

I am *NOT* responsible if you brick your phone from this.

This works on my phone.

If you want to use/port it to another device, let me know. I may be making more of them in the future

edit: Bootanimation only (no cwm) can be found here

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peter9991:
Hey everyone,

Today i thought i might try setting up my Desire HD to sync with Hotmail via Exchange. Setup was easy as hell, just had to enter my e-mail adress and password, the rest was done automatically.

The Calendar syncs well, so do the contacts, but what bugs me is the mail client:

I like the fact that i can choose that attachments don't download, but here are my problems:

When i open an E-Mail on my Desktop, the mail gets marked as read on the Hotmail site and on my phone.

When i open a mail on my phone however, i go back to the list of mails. Then, the phone removes all messages from my phone and redownloads them. Now the mail i just read is marked as unread. Anyone know how to fix this?

Another thing: Is it possible to actually show all my E-mails on my Desire HD with the mail app? When it syncs it always shows X/285. Once x has reached 35 it stops. (i have more than 285 mails in my inbox).

Hope to find some help!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] cotangent05:
I'm try to install Guerilla Bob, Dj Rivals and Samurai 2 via PC downloads

so i tried to install, then it wont.. so i tried to push it in system\app and then set the permission and reboot.. it just gave me an error.. so i open the root explorer again and go to system\app path and open these apps and i hit install..

it all works, i have no issues about samurai 2, but the 2 remaining app run only if i reinstall again via root explorer, so meaning when i reboot the guerilla bob and dj rivals goes back to that error..

is there a way to fix these? thanks
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] craigacgomez:
Well, the first step you chose to install them is wrong... you do not install 3rd part apps by push them to /system/app... this does not necessarily inflate them and install them.

Uninstall the apps/games and delete the files you pushed to /system/app

Copy the apps/games to the SD card and install them by tapping on the files using a file manager... or use adb to install them...
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] lrs421:
This sounds like the issue I'm experiencing trying to install the tapntap keyboard on CM7 and CM7 based builds. I tried copying the apk and libs via root explorer and changing their permissions but it resulted in the keyboard force closing. Should've went with my gut and used adb, going to try that next.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigrushdog:
I've been pondering something along these lines. Only I would use the new wifiDirect API. Only downside is both client and server would have to be wifiDirect capable.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aeros0ul:
Awesome idea. i´m searching for something like that since i have a xoom (and a lg optimus black, also wifiDirect compatible).

why not integrate a fallback to vnc if no wifiDirekt device? direct connection over vnc is simple if one device tethers to the other.

Hi @ all,

I haven't enough posts to write in the Data2System Rom's thread, so I try it here. I just want to ask if there is a way to update from my recent rom "data2system mod for 2.3.3 SwiftDroid v2.0-M2" to the latest M3 without lossing all my apps and settings?

Hope someone can help me.

greez G00fY
[GT540 Optimus General] lavero.burgos:
I havent try myself the following way but i think it might work.

Make a backup of 2.0M2 , put M3 backup folder in clockworkmod > backup next to the other and flash it then in advance restore Flash only system.img from M2 backup.

In data2system mod system.img makes the job of data.img in normal mod and viceversa.

If that does not work then use titanium backup pro and make a full backup of users apps then after flash new rom install titanium again and run the restore all user apps & system data. Titanium backup folder with your backups will be in your sdcard so copy it in a safe place if you ever need to format it.

As the title says. I've put the microsd card of my htc g2/z in the iconia and its working. Though i cant seem to find it anywhere in my file managers. (Music app shows ext. Sd content) tried es and file manager for honeycomb. I want to transfer music and video's over to internal sd. Since acer does not have usb drivers for mac, this is kind off my only option. Right?

SOLVED:

1.

Micro SD card slot shows up under: /mnt/external_SD.

So in your file explorer you have to go to root, and then mnt.

2. There are

no

mac drivers for the acer A500. You can try http://www.android.com/filetransfer/

Though, that program seems to crash alot!

3.

Transfer your files from mac to A500 using USB sticks, SD cards, FTP servers (loads in market).

USB stick can be found: mnt/external_USB
[Acer Iconia A500] foxmeister:
No it isn't your only option, you install this: http://www.android.com/filetransfer/.

[Acer Iconia A500] huppelkutje:
I will check it out. Thanks alot!

**edit**

Android file transfer keeps crashing as soon as i connect the tab. Tried reboot, but still crashing.

Any other solutions? I've tried FTP and such apps. They work, but ofcourse not as fast as usb connection.

and why is my micro sd card not showing in file explorers?
[Acer Iconia A500] shock2sys:
if you're using es strogs file manager than you first need to go to root (click on the left most icon on top) than go to /mnt than /external_sd <-- that's your micro sd card than simply copy and paste your files from there to your internal storage.
[Acer Iconia A500] huppelkutje:
Thanks. This makes copying my music alot easier.
[Acer Iconia A500] atomicwedgie:

[Acer Iconia A500] Vereynn:
as mentioned, power down fully, not just On/off until the screen blanks. Found out the hard way, lazy person that I am.

Odd thing I've found though is that when connecting my Acer tab to my Acer .... err ... laptop ... feels so incestuous .... is that the mSD card appears as simply "SDCARD" while it's external_SD from the device itself. Ah the sweet smell of O/S kludges in the morning :eek:
[Acer Iconia A500] huppelkutje:
No need to power off > back on. Just put the sd card in and voila! It worked right away. Just could not find the sd card in ES file. But now I know it's under mnt/external_SD/
[Acer Iconia A500] nycbjr:
actually I wouldn't call it solved, its kind of an annoyance if anything else. Titanium Backup for one won't see it, I thought honeycomb was going to mnt internal as essc (or something like that) and the external sd as sdcard?

You can soft link it (now that we have root) but that won't carry across a reboot for now.

any how still loving this thing!
