[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sp33dy_gtx:
Solved it is not bricked
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jimenezboy:
Hey guys, been having an at&t Tilt 2 for 6 months or so, it's been working flawlessly. However, yesterday, it hung up on me. Like I always do when it hangs, I popped off the battery cover and then removed the battery. I got my Tilt 2 minus the stylus. Upon returning the battery and rebooting, the phone didn't boot up properly, instead it booted to the Bootloader screen. I tried both soft and hard resetting, both of which failed. I connected it to a PC and then reflashed the ROM currently on the phone. The flashing process went well, however it was abnormally fast, in less than 2 minutes it had finished flashing. On powering up the phone I was greeted by the now familiar bootloader screen. I know I have 2 options:

1. Flash a stock at&t ROM.

2. Use MTTY and do "set 16 0"

Basically my work has been cut out for me,but the stock at&t ROM comes in at 226mb, this is incredibly huge. Am in Kenya, by the way. Would take me at least a couple of days to complete downloading the file. About MTTY, I don't know how to use the file. Let me still wade around XDA forums, I'm sure I'll find something else that might help me. But if anyone here can bash me, or point me in another direction I'd be happy. Thanks a bunch good fellows!!!!!

Sorry for editing, here's what the bootloader says:

Just close this thread, it's been idle for 6 days and counting. No response whatsoever. Anyways, my phone is now fine... It was the battery that was completely flat.
[Acer Iconia A500] orbix:
I haven't seen one in person, but since the design is similar enough, I thought I'd ask if anyone knows if the keyboard unit from the W500 tablet might happen to work with the A500? I can see logic going both ways, but if someone has had the chance to try it out, I'd love to know how it went!
[Acer Iconia A500] AnarchyCow:
From what I've researched on the W500, the keyboard uses USB, and will not work for the A500.

That was one of the things I was most excited for was the keyboard for this guy. It looks like it hasn't been released, but I'm sure they will end up making one at some point.
[Acer Iconia A500] MERK77:
i am a little confused i connected my dell keyboard into my A500 and i was able to type with no problem so if the W500 uses a USB keyboard then i would think there should be no reason for it not to work .
[Acer Iconia A500] l3enjamin:
For USB, it means that is uses an USB port...

Surely you can use a USB M to F cable or plug your A500 vertically on it...
[Acer Iconia A500] orbix:
Well, that photo certainly clears up my questions - I mistakenly assumed that the W500 would use the same dock connector, but they're clearly more different than I anticipated!

Here's hoping that we'll get a similar keyboard setup at some point as an accessory. Until then, there's always bluetooth, which is probably a good enough solution that I won't bother with a specific keyboard if it is released...
[Acer Iconia A500] VitaZora:
It seems that keyboards and other accessories can now be ordered direct from Acer's online store - for those of us in the US anyway. No photos yet. But it appears that the items are available.

A500 Keyboard??

Just saw an interesting post on TechniDroid. Guy claims he spoke to someone at Acer who confirmed there will be a keyboard dock for the A500. Since I'm a newbie on this forum I can't post the link unfortunately.

If you search "Acer to have keyboard dock for a500" it should pop up.

You must not have seen the w500 keyboard if you're asking that question. Look it up and it will become very clear why it wouldn't work on the A500. A sad sad day for us all. I too was looking forward to that keyboard dock with the superior A500.
[Acer Iconia A500] IceBone:
Sorry for digging up the thread, but Acer now lists the keyboard on their site. It's not a dock, completely separate, but it looks very nice.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ERamseth:
First, my setup:

- EVO 4G hw rev 0004

- Fresh EVO ROM 3.5.0.1 (basically not a whole lot more than a rooted version of latest OTA)

- netarchy havs more no sbc kernel 4.3.4

- stock 1500 mah battery

- stock charger

So I reset my battery stats on last Friday (it's now Monday) in the recommended fashion (charge to 100%, get as close to 4200 mv as possible, wipe stats, unplug phone, use until dead). I charged my phone overnight last night to 100%. Unplug from charger. Get on the subway to work. I have service in the subway stations but not in the tunnels. I'm listening to music on the subway the whole way. Phone gradually gets warmer and warmer. By the time I get to work, the battery reads 59%. The entire subway ride takes 45 minutes.

So in 45 minutes, my phone dropped 41% of it's battery charge. This seems unreasonable to me, even given the fact that I was going in and out of service and listening to music. I'm beginning to think my battery is dying/going bad (especially given the amount of heat generated by the battery). Before I complain to sprint or buy a new battery, I wanted to get some feedback from other EVO users who have maybe had similar experiences.

So does this 41% in 45 minute battery drain seem normal or abnormal, given the conditions states above?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDM Civic EG8:
I believe the reason why your battery is dying and getting hot is because it keeps looking for signal. Next time you charge your phone and get on the train put your phone in airplane mode and see if that helps at all. I know in my house before I got the airave i barely got any signal which was hurting my battery life.Then once I got the airave and always have full 3G the battery draining problem was gone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ERamseth:
I mean yeah I get that, but 1% per minute average? Really? That seems a little ridiculous.

Anyone out there willing to stick their phone in a lead box or some other service-less place for 45 minutes and see if you lose 1% per minute?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
Absolutely possible. Searching for a signal uses a ton of battery, hence why your phone is getting hot. The phone can easily drop 1% per minute when searching.

Simple solution: turn airplane mode on while in the subway, turn off when you get out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
When I was on CM7 without working GPS, my phone would get freakishly hot if GPS was turned on. The battery would drop about 1% per minute as well. I have working gps now on MIUI and while the phone gets warmer, it's nothing close to what I was seeing on CM7.

I guess yours could be something similar.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerenOtt:
I would like to recommend an app from the market called juice defender. It works wonders. Just get the free version (not the beta) and set it to balanced which is the lowest setting. It saves me so much battery.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] csyrell:
I'd love to be able to use my Otterbox Defender case and my Car Dock at the same time. Unfortunately they just are not compatible. However, I was staring at my dock without the phone in it and I noticed that the bottom portion (where the phone rests) could possibly be ground down/sawed off so that the case would fit in. Depth doesn't seem to be an issue. Width is the problem. It might not look pretty, but if it's functional, that's all I care about.

Has anyone tried anything like this?
[Atrix 4G Accessories] LancerV:
Its width and height that is the problem
[Atrix 4G Accessories] mobileweasel:
Look at the mounts for a 200 series Garmin Nuvi. Very little modification and it clips right onto the Defender. There is a thread about this around here somewhere and has lots of pics. Works well and super solid.

[Atrix 4G Accessories] csyrell:
Thanks everyone for you responses. I had seen that mount before and it is a creative approach. However what it lacks is having the usb cable and mount. What I like about the moto dock is that I don't have to deal with the cable everytime it get in and out of the car. Just drop the phone in and I'm good to go.

It may be that this is the next best alternative, but I am very tempted to chop the sides off my dock and see what happens.

Starting	May 8th until July 23rd Sprint is giving 300 bonus minutes to the Everything Data 450 plan making it the ED750 plan. What's even better is you don't lose the minutes ever as long as you remain on the plan. This is for new and existing customers.

Good for those that need a few more minutes.

SWAC, referral and Sero plans do no qualify.

Thanks for the info although I rarely ever come close to my 450 minutes. Is there anything we have to do or are the 300 minutes automatically added to our plans?

Never said it before but thanks for all the info you give us, it's good to have an insider.

P.S. Still working changing my upgrade to 6/1, they really don't want to change that. I'll be with them 10yrs on 10/15 so from a company perspective I don't really think it's such a big deal to change.

My biggest complaint with sprint is paying $10.00 for premium data and getting 250kb down as a top speed 70% of the time. If they give me my upgrade back then it will be worth staying and just using my wifi.

[EVO 4G General] sekigah84:
So you are saying that you are going to get a free Evo 3D at release?

Are you 100% sure its free and not, "We'll send you an email when we have a release date and then let you know you now have your $75/$150 Sprint Premier discount ready to be applied to the $600 retail price?"
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
Just got my additional 300 minutes........thank you Shroomz.

Since I saw you guys talking about it, I asked about getting my update pushed up a bit and they didn't seem too reluctant to do it. I didn't push too hard because since there is no official release date for the Evo 3D yet, I didn't know what date I would want it pulled in to. I got my Evo about a week after the release date due to availability issues, so if the new one is released on the same day as this one, I'll have to wait a week before I can order it and then hope there is stock available.

Once the official release date is provided, I'm going to call back and try to get it moved forward to that date; if it is necessary.

did you get gold status by just asking for the extra minutes?
[EVO 4G General] raphenucleus:
It shows up for me online under "Add-on services..." as "300 bonus Anytime Minutes per month."

On another note, it took about 15 minutes for them to set it up for me because the CSR had no idea what I was talking about. When I first mentioned the promotion, she was like "300 anytime minutes for free? I don't know about that..." Then I guess she talked to her supervisor and I got the extra minutes.
[EVO 4G General] chaoticallysweet:
No, I have been trying many different angles on the gold.. emailed executive services, talked to retention, executive services. Finally played a hell mary - I have a legacy # been with sprint roughly 8 or 9 years, but hoped that the system would grandfather all legacy numbers without looking at the exact sign on date. asked sprint to check file for sign on date.. it worked - gold without really being gold.

I also got my 300 mins added with no problems, after which I pressed the issue about my annual upgrade which has just recently been changed to only a $75 discount due to a new "silver/gold" tiered premiere customer levels that only gives us full upgrade discounts every *other* year.

I'll be getting a response in 24-48 hrs...they are saying the request has to be run by some upper-level manager.

But for those of you who make this request, after 24 hrs or so you can text the word "UPGRADE" (all in caps) to 1311, and you'll get one of 2 numerical responses: if you get "511", your request was granted. If you get "212", you are stuck with the $75 discount.
[EVO 4G General] dcfella:
I just texted to 1311 and so far, no change. The CSR I spoke to said he would personally call me within 2 days to let me know if the request was fulfilled though.
[EVO 4G General] Andromorphone:
Yes, I should have clarified...of course you can call back to check, or maybe they will call you within the 48 hr window...but if you want to check periodically, you can send those texts and see if it's been approved based on the response codes you get. Even if you get a "212" response, so long as it hasn't yet been 48 hrs, it may just mean that they haven't processed/approved your request yet and that they're still working on it.

But a 511 means you got it.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
