here is an idea....

use titanium backup to FREEZE all USER APPS, except for ones that you are SURE are not it...then if you see that at 0530am it did not happen, unfreeze a number of them, maybe 10 or so. at the next 0530am continue this process...until you find the group of 10 that causes the problem to resume.

It's some rogue app that is pushing ads (AirPush). Go to the market and check the reviews on some of the latest apps you've downloaded. that'll help you track it down along with anthonyandrews's idea.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heeter:
Hi all,

I am noticing something with nexus s.

When in recovery or in normal homescreen, my nexus s communicates properly with adb commands

But there seems to be no communication from the nexus s when in fastboot mode.

Everytime I enter a fastboot command, I always get a "waiting for device" and nothing happens.

Am I missing something?

Thanks.

When I hook up my Nexus S in fastboot mode, I see this at the bottom:

STANDARD_SET_CONFIGURATION

Everytime I unplug/replug USB wire, another "STANDARD_SET_CONFIGURATION" line gets added

I type "fastboot devices" into fastboot, and my Nexus S does not show up.

The phone is currently unlocked, but I would like to lock to reset it and start from factory rogers setup again.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

You need to install "PDAnet"...search pdanet on yahoo and you will find the website to download it....it has the right drivers for your computer to communicate with your phone.

download it...and before you install it...make sure your phone is connected to your computer and in fastboot mode.

after install your phone will work in fastboot mode..you do not need to install pdanet on your phone

::thanks??::
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heeter:
I do have that already, rubbamade.

My Device Mangler is recognizing Android 1.0, and has the drivers for that I took from PDAnet.

The PDAnet itself couldn't install properly, so I extracted the drivers from the package and manually installed them through the Device Mangler.

I still cannot connect to fastboot.

Good choice ditching windows. Lol

Offtopic: how is debian compared to Ubuntu concerning repo n 3rd party drivers? Seriously considering switching to debian since Ubuntu adopted the crapy Unity
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snandlal:
The driver isnt right if your phone wont show. You have to let windows find the correct driver out of the drivers you point it to. Either point it to x64 or x86 directory only. No further. Windows will find it.

Go to the fastboot thread in development and get the drivers.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gun26:
Heeter, it's maybe a bit late but unless you're really strapped for disk space you can keep Windows and create a separate partition for Linux, using the grub bootloader to choose between the two. I'm a Linux user myself (mostly Arch but I love to test most new distros) but I have lots of disk space and I keep an up-to-date Windows 7 installed for testing purposes and gaming.

Since - I have to admit it - I suck at most games, my Windows doesn't get used much but I don't begrudge the space it takes up. On Debian you should have less trouble with the adk and drivers - here's a good post at Howtoforge about using the adk http://www.howtoforge.com/setting-up-an-android-app-build-environment-with-eclipse-android-sdk-phonegap-debian-squeeze
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bender_123:
First, just uninstall your Android 1.0 device driver completely and...

All you need to do is connect to USB at the standard Android homescreen (with debugging on), then in command prompt, make sure it loads properly in ADB when fully booted...

"adb reboot bootloader" and let PDANet work its magic, it will pull your drivers and install for you. If you disconnect, it will not pull the right driver.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heeter:
I tried that like 50 flippin times! everytime, PDAnet stays locked up during the pulling driver area. I have come back half hour later, still not complete. Then, when I unplug the cable, it spits out an error, and uninstalls itself.

What I ended up doing was, during the PDAnet install, it creats a root folder in C:/Program Files/PDAnet (or whatever it is). Now when it got stuck there, I went into that root folder, copied the "usb-win" driver package from there and set it aside. Then I went into the Device Mangler, and right clicked and manually installed the PDAnet driver.

Hiya Gun26, Thanks for that link. I am actually a site supporter on that site, if you search up "Heeter" over there. Been for a couple of years now.

I guess I could go back to dual booting, haven't done that in a long while either.

Heeter
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gun26:
That was just a suggestion about the dual booting - if you enjoy gaming, why give it up? Linux and Mac may be great (and BSD let's not forget) but for gaming it's either Windows or a console. I don't think you'll have any trouble with the adk and drivers on Debian. Good to hear about your connection to Howto Forge - it's a really useful site.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heeter:
Thanks for that Gun,

I haven't had time to move back to Debian, and I really do like gaming once in a while.

I should be up and running dual boot this weekend.

Thanks again, guys.

No doubt ebay will have cases of all colours before long. After painting my soupped up Zonda Lime Green Metallic in GT5 and looking mint, I reckon pimping the Sensation will be fun.

It should also be easier. As the case is the entire body except for the screen one could theoretically just spraypaint it and be done with it (just make sure you cover up the mic holes before doing so and obviously that the cover is off.)

[Captivate General] Klyentel:
So if 2.2 is Froyo.

And 2.3 is Gingerbread

Then what is 3.1? Is there any device released as of yet that is running it? Because

I read somewhere, there is an app or app(s) that support all Android OS 2.2-3.1.

So if devs are already building apps that support 3.1, there must be a release of it

somewhere right? Or a leak of the code or something. I am just curious.:confused:

UPDATE: So now I know it is called Honeycomb, and so far only tablets have been released with it, like the Motorola Xoom.

[Venue Pro General] alodar1:
did the device power up???? If it did...then they can unbrick it. Wouldn't surprise me if a Dell or MS person bought it.

I just read the rest of the article. This device is flashable....so someone got a a $182 phone....not much of a bargin I'd say.
[Venue Pro General] rastx:
I have one of these bricked phones after my 32Gb card became unreadable. How can it be reflashed? Do only Dell and Microsoft have that ability?
[Venue Pro General] alodar1:
If the device can get past the loader screen it can be flashed.

I assume MS does but only at the internal level for testing purpose...after all they are constantly loading and testing new functions and bug fixes.

OEMs would have the ability but not at a customer available option. After all, how do they refurbish devices. How did they load 7355 on a 7004 device. You would not be able to call them and request a flash. I doubt they would offer it in a warrenty violation scenario also. The question was asked on the Dell community forums, is there a way to send a device in for repair....that is now currently out of warrenty....and pay for the repair....of course...no answer from Dell.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] trukenx:
This might be old news but just chose to share anyway

I have an evo with a novatec screen, love using a custom kernel, and also really like sense and perfectly working 4g. so ginderbread really wouldn't play nice with me. The one thing I wanted on gingerbread was the keyboard and more importantly the text selecting.

Just found out that we have all had this feature this whole time with froyo.... At least with swype.

See photos below

While texting or typing you swype the button with the hand and finger in it from left to right(to the SYM) button to pull up the selection keyboard with a dpad

See screenshot below

Also when in the browser hold down the menu key this would bring up the keyboard then bring up the selection keyboard to jump thru the links

Once again I am sure this is old news but hopes this helps anyone that didn't know this and were having issues placing the text cursor before the first letter on a text message or notepad

[Desire HD General] Hawks556:
I don't think it's even supposed to exist? All phones aren't the same, I know the SGS has it but that doesn't mean it would be the same on the DHD.
[Desire HD General] whiskey_jd:
then someone know the equivalent of EFS folder in HTC?
[Desire HD General] Hawks556:
What do you need it for if I may ask? Why do you want to backup it?
[Desire HD General] whiskey_jd:
Because I'm using custom ROM and after flashing a new ROM my IMEI could be changed. Actually my friend told me to do this and he is using SGS :)
[Desire HD General] Hawks556:
That's just on the SGS, it isn't a problem on the DHD. Just flash away, you won't lose your imei.
[Desire HD General] whiskey_jd:
If so, I'm glad :)

Thanks anyway..
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
Flashing custom ROM's will not change your IMEI, I am fairly sure it's not that easy and certainly in Europe would cause you to be breaking the law, so would i'm sure be mentioned in the ROM thread
[Desire HD General] hirotearii:
Apparently it's not really true : after flashing Absolution Rom custom, my IMEI doesn't seem to be readable by the phone even if I can find it in bootloader mode thanks to Information service.

I've spent hours looking for solutions through tons of threads here but I come up with thinking it's a dead end...

Thus, any clue is wellcome
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
What happens when you restore your backup? is the IMEI readable then
[Desire HD General] daedric:
Probably Absolution has a bug which prevents it from reading the IMEI.

If the device can connect to a GSM network, then you can be sure, the imei is still there :D
[Desire HD General] hirotearii:
I'm pretty sure that it's not the rom. Only the bootloader can read the IMEI and I've already flashed another working ROM (BlackIce was the previous one). Any ROM can't access hardware low level IMEI information (what the booloader seems to be able to).

That's the reason why I'd like to know in which partition these IMEI files are stored in the Desire HD and try to recover it.

Backup when restoring, not working.
[Desire HD General] daedric:
I'm sorry, but your problem mist lie elsewhere. I've installed, CM7.x, Sense (lost count of versions, between arhd, leedroid, rcmix), ics... AND ABSOLUTION.

I'm now on CM7.2Kang. And i can see my imei on settings.
[Desire HD General] hirotearii:
But that trully happened !!! I'm not trying to do something illegal. I was feeling confident concerning flashing. But I forgot to tell you that I tried to flash the latest Radio ROM and RIL associated :o.

My smartphone works well but no phone functions !!!

this is what I have with <<getprop>>:

---------- Post added at 11:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------

Sorry but I can't post the result of getprop command due to restrictions to prevent spams.
[Desire HD General] daedric:
Rádio and ril... flash the rádio sms ril again.

i have never flashed ril, sms rádio only once.
[Desire HD General] Hawks556:
So you flashed a RIL on a CM-based rom(Absolution)? You should always be 100% sure what you're doing and read every piece of information that there is.

From the RIL thread:
[Desire HD General] hirotearii:
I've read the thread but I didn't flash a RIL for Sense based ROM. I flashed again Radio and RIL again like daedric said before and my IMEI can be read now:

I supposed that my first Radio+RIL didn't work !

Many thx by the way.

Hi ,

This will be my first time to have Android device and as an owner of Nokia N8 i don't need at present time a flagship Android device so i was thinking about HTC Wildfire for testing Android and knowing it and see if i can use it at my daily usage

Due it's low screen resolution is there any apps that will not work with the device ?! Don't care about games or videos all i want to know is the device capable of installing and using common apps found out in market and forums ? Skype , What'sApp , Androidify , Social Networks plugins Facebook and Twitter , etc...

This is all i am worry about that after buying the device i can't install apps on it due to it's hardware limitations

Thanks and waiting your reply soon

For the things you mention the wildfire will be fine, it can handle day to day apps fine mostly, it just falls down with high intensity graphics of games mainly.

yes u can install those kind of apps.if u not looking for gaming then its okay.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lokeshramesh:
Most important now a days wildfire comes with latest version of android which cannot be rooted.

Rooting means gaining full access to ur phone means you can change some setting of system, run application which can be run only when rooted etc.. Without rooting wildfire is waste. If u use only day to day applications like skype, mail, youtube, business apps etc.. then u can take but if u intend to use something more like ad-hoc wifi, changing system properties, more market applications which are available for selected region only, Advanced tethering of internet, removing inbuilt applications etc.. then i advice not to touch until someone root it.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MohamedYousri:
Thanks all for your time

i don't care for games all i need testing android and see if i will like it or not and try the common apps

i think in my country - Egypt - it's still sold with 2.1 Eclair and this is rooted ?!

if i want an email app and twitter and facebook clients and a new music player etc all this will not be available ??!!

i don't want powerful apps or games i know that device can't handle them but what about common and regular apps

let's say that there is 100 app most of android users use , how many of those 100 app will not work ,,, i will not download all market to the phone !!!

can i use apps that change the UI like SPB Shell , i already know that there is a lot of apps that do that job to android

is there 2.3 for Wildfire ?!
