Do you need to downgrade?

I used VisonaryR14+
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
That doesn't work on Gingerbread, GingerBreak should be used instead.

Have you got HTC Sync installed on your computer?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zcafr00:
Yes i have the sync app installed, I have tried different usb ports and different computers, nothing helps.

Thx for taking your time to help
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameUnknown1:
Does you computer even read the phone?

If so, try to open HTC Sync on the computer (and choose the option on the phone), ... , does HTC Sync recognise your phone? (does HTC Sync open up and connect to your phone?)

If it does, make sure you have 'USB Debugging' and 'Charge Only' when doing the commands in the terminal.

If HTC Sync doesnt recognise your phone, try uninstalling it from your PC and reinstalling it again.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zcafr00:
You where right, i had to reinstall HTC Sync and try different usb ports till i got Sync work, afterwords I chose only charge and started my terminal, worked like a charm.

Now i cant install an rom i tryed downloading OTA and from XDA pages, when download OTA it stops before it is finished, when i try installing from SD it reboots and stucks with a red triangle with (!).

Anyone who knows what the problem can be?

Thx to everyone who takes time to help others it is really aprietiated.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameUnknown1:
If the download doesnt finish properly then dont install it, because it will have corrupted/missing files, which will result in the phone not booting.

If you want some ROMs or RUUs, look at andyharneys signature above.

Try downloading from there and after downloading, checking the md5 of the file (on the website) with the file you download - there are many md5 checker programs out there, google it

As a new Asus Transformer owner and first time Android Market customer I have to say that I am utterly disappointed with the current state of the Android Market. The android market ap is a joke. The website is a little better, but desperately needs a better way to filer aps by tablet/non-tablet or hd/sd aps.

There is no legitimate reason that the market couldn't have a specific section dedicated solely to tablets. Or at least better filter/sort functions that allow you to filter in a more effective way. I was going to post a list of what is bad about the marketplace, but there is just too much. I'm sure that everyone who owns a honeycomb tablet is well familiar with the problem(s) by now. Anyway, just wanted to vent. /rant
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Skeldave:
Use appbrain (google it), it's much nicer and lets you filter your search.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] crater:
There actually sholdnt be a tabletsection at all. If a dev programs oroperly their app will work fine on any size screen. Thats the benefit of the way the xml layout in the sdk work. Locations all become relative. You say x is next to y andbelow z. Then let the device sort it out.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] javroch:
Not necessarily true, especially as Honeycomb introduces new layout elements that many app developers want to and should take advantage of to make their apps more tablet friendly. It might still all end up in the same APK in the end, but the developer still should do some tablet specific work to make it more user friendly. It would still be nice to know which APKs have been "tablet-optimized".

They do have a "Featured Tablet Apps" section, which as far as I can tell is just a list of all/most of the APKs that have been optimized for tablets.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] xManMythLegend:
I thought some of these issues were fixed with 3.1 according to xoom owners.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] case0:
I think it's because they don't want people to see how few apps there are optimised for tablets.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] nxp3:
I agree

There should be a tablet filter. Even amazon apps suck at it. I download some apps and it FC on me.

You say all apps should work on tablet? Well that's not the case for many apps so there should be some kind of distinction. But, I hear some problems will be fixed in 3.1.

The pop down add won't be popping down anymore, it will just be there when you open it up, more catagories, and when you view an app and go back, it suppose to remember your location.

Be nice to be able to add reviews, but I didn't hear anything about that.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] windson223:
as a poor uesr from china pr

i need an app like market access lol
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] SilentMobius:
No no no... there is nothing about an Android app that says "I'm a tablet app" unless it just happens to be written for _only_ the Gingerbread API level (and that will be false the second the next version of Android comes out) which is pretty bad practice.

Using 3.0 classes is possible via reflection while remaining compatible back to 1.6, given that you can have a specific layout for x-large screens you can use 3.0 layout elements there even if your app targets a lower API level. Fragments are available all the way back to 1.6 now.

There is no "Tablet version" switch to detect, nor should there be.

It is up to the devs themselves to support the use cases they want to target, not specific devices, with freedom comes responsibility.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] magicpork:
there should't be a tablet filter..android is different from iOS in terms of the layout design and ideally all apps should just run just fine on hc.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] bisto321:
I remember reading that Google were going to put extra layers/levels into the current market to provide better touch browse/navigation - which might be nice.

But I don't really have any problems with the current one and the other sites do a good job at simplifying searches anyway.

It will never please everybody, but will continue to get better I am sure.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] dfin13:
It's not whether or not they run fine, it's whether or not they are optimized for a tablet, like the CNN app. So I agree, a filter for apps that are tablet-optimized is a must. Until then, I just rely on the Featured Tablet Apps to see if anything new has been added.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] bobdude5:
yes ideally they should, but theyre phone apps. When they do work correctly, they just stretch. Everybody makes of the ipad saying its a giant ipod touch, but the apps that are optimized for it look amazing. So yes there should be a tablet filter.

Hi,

you may start by dumping the latest HTC original ROM for the Rhodium (2.07 EU and 2.10 ATT).

After that you may dump the latest HTC original ROM for the HD2 (3.14) and start playing...

There is plenty of tutorials on the Chef central forum

Is tehre anyway how to change a color of status bar? I mean a bar up side of display with ifnormation about batery, signal, time etc. Default the color is black, I want it white. How can i change it?

Thanks so much for respond...
[Wildfire General] antonio1475:
You will need to edit the right .png in framework-res.apk

You will need root, decompiling and compiling apk, and pushing to system/framework.

I don't know how much you know about it. :)
[Wildfire General] f0xy:
If rooted and using cm7 just get a new theme.
[Wildfire General] tombiker:
...ehm actually nothing:D The some step by step tutorial will be good for me, without it I probably cannon change it...so please :D
[Wildfire General] antonio1475:
So you are rooted? Which ROM are you using?
[Wildfire General] tombiker:
Hm that will be probably harder than I expected:) How can I find out which rom I used

PS I am totaly even more worse than beginner with "hacking" to my phone :D

only what I know that I ve got htc wildfire with latest android update
[Wildfire General] antonio1475:
If you have the official 2.2.1, all this stops here because you can't root... Sorry

:)
[Wildfire General] tombiker:
axactly :( so I have no way to change the color?
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
No, that requires a deodexed ROM. The best you can do is install a Custom Launcher and use its themes, but, that will not change the colour of the status bar.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kioshi:
Wow, finally there is someone else out there with this problem.

Mine didnt have this problem till i flashed MIUI latest rom....but even after somehow making it into the recovery mode...i was able to restore my previous cm7 build...

BUT....the problem persists....

So I think I am going to pull out the 8gb sd card my friend gave me from his EVO 4g.

It annoying because sometimes i cant get into even hboot with power + volume down.

I know the volume buttons work because i can change volume on phone.

I can still see the power button still being pressed down, its not stuck or anything...it works 50/50

Can you give an update OP, please?

I also have an AMOLED Incredible..and dont want/can afford another phone...

LBE Privacy Guard v2 is available, check http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=18948472#post18948472 for more information.

----------

First, my apologize for poor engish

Please allow me to introduce LBE Privacy Guard, a small app wrote by myself. This app enhances Android permission system and protects your privacy.

LBE Privacy Guard works just like Windows UAC, it intercept vital actions (like send SMS, call phones) and requests to access sensitive data(SMS conversation, contacts, phone location, IMEI, IMSI, etc) from apps, then prompt for your confirmation. Unless explicit permit, such actions and request will be rejected.

LBE Privacy Guard also has a low-level firewall, supports per-app control like droidwall, but not require netfilter/iptables so it works on pre-froyo devices and faster than droidwall because it doesn't filter packets.

So why I wrote this app? Because android permission system sucks, it's very hard for average user to understand the meaning of each permission, there is also no way to track the behavior of installed app and no way to control the permission of installed app(except uninstallation).

I hope my app could bring dynamic permission control and real-time track for installed apps. So you can figure out which app is stealing your privacy and block it before your privacy stolen.

Requirements

**NEEDS ROOT**

Works on Android 2.0 and above.

Tested on various devices and firmwares, but not tested on Android 3.0 and 3.1 devices.

Current Features

1. Block unwanted send SMS / call phone operation

2. Block unwanted access to phone location, contacts, SMS/MMS conversation database, IMEI/IMSI/ICCID/phone number.

3. Integrated low-level firewall, no netfilter/iptables required, works on pre-froyo devices

[Android Apps and Games] Sentence1:
First look is great. Thank you. It is exactly what I am looking for :D
[Android Apps and Games] eoc:
The "low-level firewall" does not filter packets, instead it removes network related supplemental groups of certain process. Without such supplemental groups, socket syscall will fail with EPERM, so the application will not be able to access network.

This solution neither require netfilter kernel module / iptables binaries, nor filter packets, it's faster. but it can't distinguish 3G and WIFI connections.
[Android Apps and Games] WiredPirate:
I love this idea! I haven't updated "att Mark the Spot" in months because they requested access to everything. The first thing was trust my root apps, sms, gmail & voice apps, then I blocked my phone ID from ALL apps. (would've been nice to have a "reject all" option there.) My question is, are there any legitimate reasons for an app to request my IMEI? Are there any potential negatives to blocking my IMEI from ALL apps?

Edit: I also experienced the force close on reboot, but LBE started right back up on its own. Atrix 4.1.83

[Android Apps and Games] n3man:

No., It will only block apps and not the communication between your device and the carrier which is impossible on GSM networks.

Does anybody who uses this app also use root call blocker (RCB)? These 2 apps seem to conflict.

The problem happens when I open RCB while privacy guard it's working in the background. After RCB is opened, I can't send any SMS. Rebooting solves the Problem but isn't a fix. The "RCB has been granted superuser privileges" pop up also appears every minuteish until a reboot.

I have privacy guard set to load when the phone starts up. Calling and data still work.

Application deletes everything in /sbin folder and put its own busybox, su, adb binaries.

This is not a good behavior at all. It's like a virus...

There are even no any warnings in application about such destructive action.

Just wanted to thank the dev and let everybody know that the system apps are mining data like crazy. It's to be expected from google, but seriously look at the music player app as an example. How many permissions does a music player need to play music?
[Android Apps and Games] rogier666:
What permissions does your music player ask?

My music player (the "connected music player" that comes with Motorola phones) asks for network, location, and phone state/identity.

It's got Soundhound, YouTube, TuneWiki, and Shoutcast built in, so it needs to go online. TuneWiki and Radio use location.

The phone state and identity permission should never have been thrown together in one setting. A music player needs to read your phone state so it can pause when you receive a call, but it doesn't need to know your phone number or IMEI.

It would be nice if LBE could split up some permissions, so we can allow "phone state" but deny "phone identity."
[Android Apps and Games] baka2x:
The stock music player asks for phone id and network access.

To me, the worst offender is the voice search.
[Android Apps and Games] ryanjoehere:
this is advisable to install LBE?
[Android Apps and Games] p107r0:
Yes. Just block its data connections in Droidwall if you want to feel safer.

You're out of line. Even if you are right, you're tone is arrogant. Forums are here for discussion and if people feel that they'll be belittled by the likes of you, they may stop taking part in constructive feedback.

[Android Apps and Games] DashingGentleman:
Or maybe people who don't know a thing about networking shouldn't be spreading mis-information because all it does is add white noise to the forum and drown out the opinions of actual experts. Doktornotor's point is both correct and informative and its tone doesn't make it any less so.
[Android Apps and Games] mightbme:
As I said....even if he's right... there's a civilized way to put your point across. Basically if he walked around speaking to people in the street like that, at least where I grew up, he probably would find out fairly quickly that it's not cool.

I've been on here for a few years over at Winmo, and it was a fairly rare thing to see that sort of attitude. Seems like it's becoming more common...maybe it's just that smartphones are becoming more popular. Either way, it's sad to see xda becoming a place where people talk to others like that....knowledgable or not.

Apologies to OP for off topic
[Android Apps and Games] r3d4:
Are you sure? It doesnt do this here. I checked it after clean&fresh rom install (oxygen2.1.6@desire). I compared md5sums bevore and after LBE install. They are exactly the same for both busybox and su. So here LBE doesnt touch any of these binarys.

Btw, i think its uselsess to block this app in droidwall as it will have root access. It can do everything on your phone including rewrite iptables rules. So if you dont trust it there is only one solution: dont install.

Atm I feel a light bitter taste about security. But the LBE makers seems alos to produce some really good roms for MEIZU phones in china. So I think they are ok. But who knows.

... only because one is paranoid that doenst automatically mean they are not behind you ;)
[Android Apps and Games] rogier666:
So does DroidWall, so if these apps fight each other they'll have the same weapons.

Or maybe not. Didn't the LBE developer say in this topic that LBE is unable to write IP tables? If he wasn't lying that means that DroidWall is able to keep LBE offline.
[Android Apps and Games] claus1953:
I find this application really very handy. At least after upgrading an application it tells you to check the permissions and indicates the new added permissions, so one at least sees what the updated program is asking for. Also very helpful is the option to make known applications trusted. So for me it is one of the most useful applications i installed.
