[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Shrike9:
Thanks for pointing out the thread that worked on your A500. I am going to try it this week. I'm also new at this and have been able to root and do a few other things thanks to everybody that posts the great walk-throughs here.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Shrike9:
I got adhoc working on my A500 also (tethering to a jailbroken iphone with PDANet). I was running into issues trying to run the ADB REMOUNT command, with the error "Operation Not Permitted" being returned. There is probably a more skilled & elegant way do do this, but I modified the instructions I found here:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] richi chen:
I also got adhoc wifi working on my A500 too by manually update wpa_supplicant via Root Explorer since the Acer new OTA version Acer_A500_1.126.03_COM_GEN1 still don't fix this issue.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Wes90:
I accidentally did it without turning the wifi off, now wifi doesn't work. Is there a way to recover it?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Shrike9:
That's weird, it wouldn't even let me overwrite the file unless airplane mode was on (disabled wifi). If you made a backup copy of the file, just restore it. If you didn't, here's my original backup (which is not modified)....be sure to unzip it first before using it though.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Wes90:
Nothing, still get the same error, i think something happened in some other files because it was connected when i changed the file. Any idea of what could it be?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Shrike9:
What error are you getting? I would also try rebooting your tablet. I am, unfortunately, no expert at this...I've only had exposure to honeycomb for 5-6 days now. So, I'll have to defer to all the experts in the forum.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Wes90:
I even tried a factory data reset but still get the same error, it just doesn't connect.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Wes90:
Any idea of what could be the problem?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Wes90:
Maybe i should wait for the os update?(can i do it without internet connection?)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NDMerritt:
A500 rooted/recognizing wifi, but pages don't load

I followed the steps: rooted my A500, uploaded the wpa_supplicant file, changed the permissions. I use WMWifiRouter on my HTC HD2 phone. Now, my A500 recognizes the ad hoc wifi and connects, but the browser fails to download any pages. My Acer netbook (Windows) works fine using the same connection. The A500 has Dolphin, Firefox, and pre-loaded browser - none of them will download pages. Also, the A500 browsers work fine on my home wifi and other wifi networks. Just not on the ad hoc wifi. Any ideas?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] WereCatf:
Damn, it took me hours to stumble upon this thread, but thank god I did! Now I finally have ad-hoc wifi working, though I couldn't follow the instructions: adb just kept complaining about device not present error. Had to do it another way.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] grade:
Dear Sir

I have same problem with you.

My cell phone is HTC tough diamond and the soft is Windows Mobile 6.1.

My A500 can link with my cell phone but can't run browsers neither internet.

How do you conquer this problem? Can you share it?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pingram3541:
Pretty sure your issue is with permissions.

I used a terminal app and entered the following for permissions w/ wifi disabled:

su root

chmod 755 /system/bin/wpa_supplicant

chown system.wifi /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

Reboot and try again.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Tom in AZ:
I so want to do this, as I could really use a WiFi AdHoc connection, but do not want to brick my WiFi. Are there a few other people who can confirm this as working?

I am using Acer_A500_4.010.13_COM_GEN2. Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Sparagnaus:
I have the same problem. Someone did it fix? :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jimmyzshack:
This worked for me using root explorer. Thanks for the post, I was getting a little mad that the ipad could see my phone but the a500 wouldn't see it.
[Bravo General] TIME2SHINE:
I saw Bravo XC2 or whatever is released.

What exactly does this allow us Bravo users to do, if rooted? Can we flash Cyanogen or anything like that? Or Gingerbread? Or is this just the start of the ROM journey?
[Bravo General] bandroidx:
BravoX is deodexed so it lets you flash any themes made like heydabop's or jrgov's dx theme.

it also has all the bloatware removed which gets rid of all the att junk and vlingo and voice commander (google voice search is the best by far)

the 2nd part of your question seems more geared towards my custom recovery app. using it, someone could port gingerbread or cyangenmod, yes, but no one has yet so the immediate answer is no, you wont be able to flash cm7 at the moment. I may look into the defy port but I dont know yet.

If i missed anything feel free to chime in everyone.
[Bravo General] akshya11235:
So does that mean we will only be able to put the CM7 only after people have developed a motorola bravo version?
[Bravo General] sdrawkcab3:
We don't know how Defy CM7 acts on a Bravo yet, but knowing that could be a launching point for a CM7 Bravo port. I don't think anyone is actively working on a Bravo CM7, but I don't spend much time on the CM boards...
[Bravo General] dontbejeff:
I know that BandroidX has made a great ROM but does anyone know if someone tried to port CM7 to the Bravo yet?
[Fascinate Accessories] justin94:
So I did a little experiment last night with my battery cover. It went great. I managed to maintain a mostly stock look and added a lot of tackiness so it has more of a rubbery texture to it.

I used this clear coat, about 5 anywhere.

I only did 2 coats so it wouldnt add to much thickness. I waited about 2 hours between. I did not sand or do any kind of prep work other than clean it.

Here is how it looks next to a stock cover.

Mine is on the right. Hope this helps everyone that wants to maintain a semi stock look with a lot better feel. As far as protection goes...... yea, I doubt it offers any at all. But I like it.

Please, if u attempt this, remove the cover from the phone first. I know this may seem silly, but there are those type of people out there.

I've been KANGBANGED!!!!!
[Fascinate Accessories] Avelnan:
But my phone looks silly without the cover on.

On another note, great job!
[Fascinate Accessories] justin94:
Lmao. I actually dealt with it for a couple hours while it was drying.

I've been KANGBANGED!!!!!
[Fascinate Accessories] justin94:
Just a quick update, I guess that particular clear is very temperature sensitive, that being said it pretty much melted and stuff was getting stuck to it. So I now have a completely sanded down back cover, looks nice and still easier to hold than the stock cover

I've been KANGBANGED!!!!!
[Fascinate Accessories] ThePlasticBling:
looks really good!
[Fascinate Accessories] thachizzle:
put a picture up of your sanded battery cover?
[Fascinate Accessories] pvgomer:
I did your mod the other day using the clear coat for plastic got some of it at OSH applied 2 coats came out great, no sanding just cleaned cover with some alcohol and paper towel. It covered up all the scratches. first day was slippery but its good now.
[Fascinate Accessories] justin94:
Be careful. I had issues with mine and heat.

I've been KANGBANGED!!!!!
[Fascinate Accessories] justin94:
I still want to sand it again just to.make it even. But I live the way it feels now.

I've been KANGBANGED!!!!!
[Fascinate Accessories] M00NEY:
Maybe try plasti-dip? that will tolerate the heat well.

Swyped...
[Fascinate Accessories] ltrain996:
I just sanded and painted mine yellow with the same paint I use for my xbox stuff, im satisfied.

Hello,

I'm having a problem with the youtube application v2.1.6 every time I load a video its starts playing without problems but at about 1 minute 11 seconds I get an error saying "Error while playing, touch to retry.".

I'm running Cyanogenmod 7.0.3 SR and I didn't have this problem with CM7 RC2. I've been looking for a solution for a long time and I've tried about everything you can find on the net about it. I'm using the Google App package from the cyanogenmod 7 forums. No problems with Gmail, Maps, Facebook, etc.

If anyone has a solution please let me know ASAP.

Thanks in advance,

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrac86:
Every time I root with blob v5, I get the sleep of death issue. When I go back to stock blob, everything works fine. Tried this twice and both times root caused sleep of death... any one else having this issue? Am I doing something wrong? A would love to have root, but not of it's causing sleep of death. Any help is appreciated. thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayman:
Are you using the most recent ASUS update?

The *only* change on the boot.img in the rooted blob is ro.secure=0..e.g., not way it can cause sleep of death.

If you on the other hand use V5 with older than v8.2.3.9, it's likely to cause issues (e.g. I know it causes issues with camera and bluetooth at the very least).

Also, which SKU are you on? E.g. US, WW, CN etc?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seeingwhite:
My wife's isn't rooted, and hers has done it once so far. Mine did it twice before rooting it, and never since rooting it (blob v5).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seshmaru:
Mine hasn't done it and mine is rooted. Blob v5 btw.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrac86:
I am on the most recent firmware, 8.2.3.9 US... I wonder if one of my root applications is causing the issue. I will reroot and see if it happens before i install apps. Thanks to all for the input.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da-slicksta:
It happened to me...i was scared as hell..but when I finally got it to wake up..I flash a rom and it hasnt happened since
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elnoxvie:
Could it be some system apps run amok, causing high temperature on the transformer and system shut down?

Just a guess, i have had it few times with my nexus one.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EpiphanyMachine:
WW Edition had this happen once without root. I do not think it is a rooting issue.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrac86:
So I rerooted and installed my apps (including the root ones - Adfree, root file explorer, titanium backup). The sleep of death happened. I then tried MoDaCo's rom. The sleep of death happened again. I then tried Prime's Rom. So far I havent had a sleep of death.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrac86:
What Rom are you using?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crimton:
I updated to latest firmware on asus.com then used blob 5 to root. No problems since I rooted or before. Could some explain what the SOD is and what happens...just see people saying they have had it happen but no description.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spuniun:
It is exactly what it sounds like - the screen goes to sleep and the device never wakes up from it. You have to double long+press power button to power cycle the device fully.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crimton:
Guess I'm lucky then, cross my fingers...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q.Entity:
If you are lucky, so am I.

I had two Eee pads updated to the ltest ASUS firmaware and then rooted B5 . Not a single glitch in 4 days. :)

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleyam:
I tried stock, Prime and MCR Hr 5, all of them give me SOD even without any additional application.

I have to play music or run pandora if I want to turn off the screen.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TomBoy19894:
Hi all,

I have a big problem with my HD2. Sooner or later the market does an unforced close everytime I try to install an app. These two errors appear:

android.process.media

com.android.vending

I really tried everthing that came in my mind to fix this problem like deleting the cache an all those things.

These are the roms I tested (all with the same problem):

- Dillapse 5.0

- BoyPPC

- Typhoon CM7

- HyperDroid

I tried it on two HD2s:

- German T-Mobile

- German O2

I did the flashing process like this:

- Install HSPL 2.08

- Install Task29

- Install RadioROM 2.15

- Install Magldr 1.13

- Install Partition Layout

- Double Wipe

- Install Rom with CWM 3.0.0.2.5 (also tried with DAF)

I really like Android, the performance and features are much better than the native windows for the HD2, but this is really bad for a fluently usage. Can please somebody help me?

Thanks and greets

Tom
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Capt.PP:
There is one best ROM you haven't try. Pure gingerbread 2.3.4

Follow my sig.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TomBoy19894:
Ok I'll try, but is it possible that all those other ROMs don't work?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Capt.PP:
Ok this is what you should do. As soon as you successfully install a ROM you see a welcome screen right? Get pass those and get into the market, log in and stay sync. The rest google will do all for you.

[HTC Inspire 4G] optimator96:
I read somewhere that its to slip something into to release the flash. For repairing I'm guessing?

No don't ever tell anyone that. It's a Mic for noise cancelling. Not a hole to be sticking stuff in (that's not what she said)

Sent via the power of a unicorn's horn.
[HTC Inspire 4G] giant420:
My case (Ringke Rearth) also appears to cover the hole next to the flash. Has anyone had any problems with this causing any problems for the noise cancellation? I havent had anyone complain about poor voice quality as of yet..
[HTC Inspire 4G] thinkhope:
The reason I asked was that I bought an amazing case for $4 in Downtown LA yet it covers the hole.

Seriously though, this case is awesome. Going to take some pictures tomorrow.

Sent from my Desire HD
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Your great $4 case breaks one of the phone's features.
[HTC Inspire 4G] optimator96:
If the DHD has the same hole, it's odd that Otterbox covers it up with the defender case.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thinkhope:
A feature that to my knowledge, hasn't affected the performance of the phone. I can still be heard loud and clear.

Sent from my Desire HD
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Agreed. A lot of custom ROMs don't even enable the dual mic noise-cancellation feature by default anyway. The build.prop setting media.a1026.enableA1026 needs to set to 1 for this feature to work, but it is set to 0 or completely missing in a lot of ROMs.
[HTC Inspire 4G] PilotML:
Looks like in GTG'S ACE 1.0.2 update he disabled it because it was draining the battery. :/
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
It's been enabled in the Rom I am using, but I haven't noticed a difference on my end of the call. And no one on the other end has said it's any clearer than with previous Roms.. *shrugs*
[HD2 Accessories] untrueparadox:
Anyone have any idea where I can order the genuine battery for the HD2? My stock battery is dying and it would be awesome if I can get a brand new one that performs well. So far, I ordered two of those Chinese imitation batteries from two different sellers and they have the same serial number haha. They don't hold nearly as much charge as they should. Any suggestions?
[HD2 Accessories] stevedebi:
Well, there is the obvious. T-Mobile sells them...
[HD2 Accessories] digiholic:
I got one from Amazon. It doesn't say HTC on it but same battery.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003DZ13LE
[HD2 Accessories] stevedebi:
If you take a look at the reviews, it is NOT an OEM battery.
[HD2 Accessories] digiholic:
Yeah that's why I mentioned not having HTC branding. I figured he mainly wanted something just like the original battery but not a generic Chinese rip off.
[HD2 Accessories] untrueparadox:
Thanks. I tried. T-Mobile doesn't carry HD2 accessories anymore. Still haven't found one. Those imitation HTC batteries don't work that well. They heat up very quickly when charging and don't seem to hold as much charge.
[HD2 Accessories] ext109:
I think I found it :)

[HD2 Accessories] Marvlesz:
Have you ever thought of buying it from HTC ?

http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=188135

Yes, it says UK but they ship to USA/wherever you are.

And Yes, they are sold out at the moment, wait for restock.

:)
[HD2 Accessories] stevedebi:
Well, I'm using the Andida batteries. They are marked 1600 but actually run at the same capacity as stock. They work the same for me.

http://cgi.ebay.com/1600mah-Battery...796?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cb710b754
[HD2 Accessories] digiholic:
Hate to quote myself but this link is valid. I ordered one the other day and it arrived today. It does have the HTC branding and is the exact same battery (P/N also) as my HD2 battery.

A reviewer on the site said they got one without the branding. I read that after I had ordered. Doh! But I got a genuine battery.
[HD2 Accessories] Mister B:
is the mould 100% same on this battery & the wrapping cut & folded the same.

Also look at print for matching size & quality.

Most batteries at that price will not be original but if lucky it will be quite good battery in a HTC copy wrapper.

Another way to tell is get other buyers to forward the serial of battery, copies only have a few differing serials at best & normally just one.
[HD2 Accessories] digiholic:
Haha... now I'm worried about copy wrappers. :p

Original battery on the left and new one from Amazon link on the right. (I'm pretty sure... could have gotten them backwards). I'll go dig around for their serial numbers online and see what I find.
[HD2 Accessories] Mister B:
Hard to tell from that image. compare moulding on edges & how wrapper is folded around. Also look at water label & contacts. Original battery contacts are quality copper & look a bit satin if look at an angle but look shiny when view straight, copy batteries normally have a cheaper coated contact which is shiny at all viewing angles.

If it performs ok & charges without getting over hot don't worry about it too much.
[HD2 Accessories] digiholic:
They look exactly identical in every single aspect. So much so that I wouldn't know which was the originial if I hadn't taken a pic. No heat issues and I've been abusing the Netflix app testing both batteries.

Loving the Netflix! :D
[HD2 Accessories] stevedebi:
You got a battery with the correct markings; at that price point, it is almost certainly a Chinese relacement. Be sure and report back after three charge cycles with the measured capacity.
[HD2 Accessories] digiholic:
We usually get what we pay for... so I wouldn't bet against you. I do plan on testing it under my normal usage after a few charge cycles and see how it does. I'm a medium to heavy user of batteries.
[HD2 Accessories] Finalforce1111:
Just found that on ebay Germany, it has overheat protection aswell the CE quality sign.

What do you think of it?

[HD2 Accessories] stevedebi:
I'm a little leary; the photo says 1500, but the description says 1300...
[HD2 Accessories] xlr8me:
Original batteries are heavier than these cheap rip-offs. They use the copy wrapper to mask their lesser capacity.
[HD2 Accessories] Mister B:
Some copy HTC batteries will be same weight or even heavier.

I have a fake HTC battery that I picked up for my Touch Pro, slightly heavier & performs as good as original but probably not for as long as original cell.

problem with copies is quality goes from trash to almost on par with original but with not much way of telling what you are going to get.

I went for a compact USB power pack as got bored of looking at fake HTC batteries & official HTC retail outlet prices can be ridiculous, plus swapping, booting & charging 2 cells is a pain at times.
[HD2 Accessories] stevedebi:
Concur on the wrapping, but my Andida 1600 actually weigh more than stock, but have the same capacity.
[HD2 Accessories] digiholic:
So after more than a week of using both my original battery and the $10 "genuine" replacement I see no difference. No overheating from either and I power-use my phone. I'll take it all with a grain of salt though... I bought my phone off Ebay and it probably came with a fake battery in an HTC wrapper. :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] boflynn:
It appears that there is a general issue with the G-Sensor after a screen replacement has been done. There are tons of users in the Android Q&A forum with the issue. The sensor works fine in winmo but not in ANY android rom after the screen has been replaced. I'm guessing its a hardware driver issue?

Please could someone tell us what info/data we can give to the ROM chefs and kernel gods so that they can take a look and fix this.

G-Sensor Not Working after Screen Replacement

I have this same problem with one of my HD2's that had the screen replaced.. Everything works perfectly except the "G-Sensor"...

I posted the problem in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=902129 a while ago, and been watching ever since... Havent seen any solutions, but more reports of the same problem been added to it daily... I'm also assuming that they changed the G-Sensor hardware along with the screen... Beacause it works perfectly in WinMo, and it dont in none of the Android Builds I've tried (CMYLXGOs all versions, Imilka's all versions, RAFDROID, CyanogenMod, etc)...

Everything works good on my Primary HD2, no problems at all... I'm hoping some Chef/Kernel developer might just take some time to check this out... :rolleyes:
